jo coburn, there's been much talk of the trump, borisjohnson sort of link, similarity in styles.at the top — and you have met the administration in the white house — how will that change the sort of fundamental relationship between the uk and the us? well, it may not fundamentally change it in the sense that there will be a relationship, but there is no doubt that the boris johnson administration in the uk has started to pivot, at least behind the scenes, with a potential biden administration. as you say, we can't say with any certainty what will happen there. there are a couple of things that i will say. we know already that the democrats don't like brexit, and brexit was the fundamental issue for borisjohnson at the last election, and those negotiations are still ongoing. we've heard rhetoric from nancy pelosi about the fact that they are extremely worried about anything that might threaten the northern ireland peace process, the good friday agreement and that protocol. there is another reason for there not being quite as much diplomatic engagement as you might have expected wi

monitor and jeffrey kofman, the north american writer and broadcaster, and here in the studio, jo coburnpresenter of the bbc‘s politics live. thank you all very much forjoining me to day, and we're going to begin with the seismic event of the week. the us election is this tuesday november 3rd, but has much of it already happened? over 80 million people have already voted. more have already cast their ballot in texas than did overall in 2016, and we still have polling day to come. if there is a very high turnout, what does that mean? but first, let's turn to the big question today, the covid question. is it fundamentally shifting the basis for everyone's political choices at the moment? jeffrey kofman, i am going to start with you on that, if i may. do you think that the way people are thinking about who to vote for now is simply not about which personality they like, whose grand vision they like, but who they think is going to get the immediatejob done? i don't think you can separate these questions. i think clearly for five years we have talked about on this programme when trump would h

and here to break down the facts of the coburn $1000.00 holiday season is american economists and author, richard wolfe. welcome richard. very cute when to agree here. sorry for that grim reality. but richard with student loan debt in the trillions and climbing. what if anything, do you see congress doing to provide relief and are there any bills currently passed by the house that biden chip by or is he assumes the president's well, they're going to get bills are going to be killed in the senate, the way you just described it no matter what quite happened in georgia in the weeks ahead. i think it is a tragedy beyond words. there is no basic reasonableness about making the recent loans. strange to get a cherry i've been reading while i'm like watching walk by the crash of borat trying to meet over the last 9 months. the change and the, i mean this is really impossible situation. let me answer everything. you know. a simple start the auction at paying attention to the country of moratorium declared rather a center of control by many of the states. many, many injured. i'm talking tens of mi

back to track the information on coburn 1000 patients now lastly is frequent 1000 test for all right now they say free 90 frequent 1000 times but that's actually not the case it's only free if you have health insurance everybody else has to pay something out of pocket so he wants to make sure everybody gets access to a free kovan 100 tests brant and sorry there's been a new informal krone virus found in denmark what do we know right now so last week the danish government reported that a mutant form or a krone virus in a mink farms can now spread. back to the virus and you know guess how the bank got the virus in the 1st place well from farm workers but this is a problem a genetic change of the crown a virus is not occurring in the main now what does that mean if so it has the potential to make a future vaccine not effective and so denmark is in is in the process of killing all minks in the country's main farms so that's about $15000000.00 a mix in total to reduce the risk of the animal really transmitting this back mutant strain back to humans and so other european nations are also r

and about 5 weeks now, are we going to stay number 30 again because of the increase and coburn, 1000 cases were saying, yes, and i don't think this was a surprise to anyone given the daily number of surges in new covert cases every single day. so unemployment is actually like an indicator, so we've been saying for weeks now that as we get further into this through season, the 2nd wave is going to be more apparent and stricter lockdowns emergence or parts of the nation and businesses are forced to either reduce capacity and or operate hours, we're likely to see more unemployment furloughs to the holiday season or so this week easy. and it's all the biggest surge in jobless claims. and it's continuing claims. have continued to data show that americans have been transitioning and rolling on to the pandemic. emergency claim and step. so that decrease has pretty much been entirely offset, so that aggregate number of unemployment claims still remain above 20000000. and that's actually just a conservative estimate, because remember at the unemployment rate is artificially depressed by exclu

is that the majority of their workers are full time workers these are contractors so you know when coburn 1000 hit it meant that a lot of people were either laid off or they already didn't have health insurance and we also know that they weren't given the proper p.p.a. to protect them while they were working in these warehouses so there's a lot going on at the back story there as well i mean look like there's just brought a brand new 165000000 dollar homes here that goes along with $80000000.00 worth of new york apartments meanwhile nearly $62000000.00 people lost work between march 21st and september 19th $98000.00 businesses small businesses closed that is not how a country or economy could possibly survive when you have that much money flowing to the top and so little going to the rest of us. if there wasn't enough going on in the lead up to the 2020 alexion here in the u.s. a stunning revelation is sending shock waves across the country lawyers say president trump's border policy has left over 500 migrant children without their parents. that's right somewhere in the shuffle of cool de

but that surge in coburn 1000 cases. oil stocks fall at the end of the week. in the coming weeks, we are going to continue to closely monitor stimulus measures, case numbers, and even vaccine related developments that is your global market walk. us treasury secretary steven chu, chin is getting some heat after announcing plans to end some emergency fed funds, but nugent defended his decision to end these crisis lending tools in an interview with c. and b. . c. newton said it. we said these are emergency tools and when the emergency is over, let's put them away. he also said he plans to continue stimulus talks and negotiations with democrats in the coming weeks. for more on this, we're joined by bill frist christie, treasury secretary, will essentially allow several of these emergency lending programs to expire on december 31st. what does this mean for businesses? well basically the biggest loser over all of this are going to be the mid-size businesses had that have just begun taking out loans and that's mainstream many facilities. so the terms of the facility

and then that winning streak on coburn $1000.00 concerns and still no us stimulus package. and moving here to the us, the dow and s. and p. . well, they actually finished just about after an up and down week, the tech heavy. nasdaq, which is just arrived at the pandemic, has a red arrow losing 1.6 percent this week. the dow saw some gains earlier in the week on pfizer's vaccine news, despite investor concerns. that the worst is yet to come when it comes to cope with 19 investors. technology shares, which have held up during the pandemic as we just mentioned finally, and canada the t.s.a. . it is just slightly up this week. optimism over that vaccine faded over concerns on its rollout. on friday, the index did see gains due to stronger gold prices up point to 8 percent heading into next week. we're going to have to continue to keep an eye on coronavirus news and whether political turmoil in the u.s. will ease and open the door for another stimulus package. and that is your global market walk. and another day, another executive order from president trump regarding china. this

more good news has emerged in the fight against coburn 1000 at the oxford astra. zeneca vaccine has shown from it. should have been bring you up to speed plus as market top of the optimism for a covert vaccine. the treasury has halted extensions for emergency relief programs . when to break that down, what that could mean for a swift economic recovery and later tensions continue to rise between the united states and china. as the white house is mulling, new moves against the people's republic with a packed show today. so let's dive right in. and we leave the program with more positive news in the development of a coping $1000.00 vaccine after zeneca on monday said late stage trials of its vaccine can it showed it was 90 percent effective, becoming the 3rd drug maker to report similar results. now the drug which is being developed with oxford university has long been seen as one of the top contenders in the vaccine race. now during a video conference call, representatives from astra zeneca and oxford university spoke about distribution and how competition among bac

i mean, militia plot to kidnap a sitting governor to coburn. they team infiltrating the white house you know, he hopped in a motorcade and put the lives of his secrets, start with everything because he wants to be on t.v. . the reality is that if you put this together in a description for a novel, the publisher would send it back and say it's too unbelievable that you can have some of these, but not all of them in your book. dollars 00000000000000000 to 20 twentieth's election map in as much about what people didn't like their what they did, what is known as negative partisanship. ah ha ha. i didn't have a lot of the polarization has now gotten to the point where i hear voters talk not in terms of what they're for, but in terms of what they're against. and if the idea that you define who you are politically, by what you dislike or what you're not a mind. so if i learn something about you that i find distasteful, then i assume you are not of my party. early voting numbers this year, shattered previous records. it was partially due to a once in a
