so one sees the same thing in catalonia but i think if you're a small nation, part of a larger nation you see europe as offering you a cost free independence. no risk and no penalties. i think now that we've left the eu scottish independence looks much much more dangerous than an attractive prospect and i don't think the scots are reckless enough to go for it. i think i t.wrote somewhere that the scots would have to be the most romantically reckless ranation this side of the balkans to want to gamble on their future and i don't believe they will. once they thought about it. but ireland is different because of their divided unities. but in a sense the same logic applies.northern ireland is indentured to the united kingdom economically far more and for northern ireland to join the republic would cause both northern ireland and the republic huge economic costs and would pose considerable political dangers. after all a large part of the population of northern ireland is quite capable of fighting against the union with the rest of ireland. that's one of the penalties for our 19th century m

and two weeks ago, spain�*s catalonia region closed nightclubs again, just weeks after opening them upavirus developments worldwide. starting with some new figures on india from a us—based research group. it found that the covid—19 pandemic may have caused over four million excess deaths in india. to put that in context, that�*s about 10 times the official death toll of [114,000 in the country. most experts believe india s official toll is a vast undercount but the government has dismissed those concerns as exaggerated. that same figure — four million — is also the current estimate total for deaths from covid across the entire world. the research has been published by researchers from the centre for global development and harvard university — and the indian government�*s former chief economic advisor, arvind sub—raman—ian. here he is speaking to us earlier. let me first say that it is actually very difficult to arrive at seriously confident numbers on this because as you said india is a vast country and data systems are not always perfect. so, no one data for no one figure is going to
