cameras there's a hybrid version of their commitment to hybrid drive trains is paying off in the european union comes into effect. toyota will probably have no problem their fleet already has unlike most other manufacturers, which will be scrambling to deploy battery electric cars to avoid massive fines in the end make the best of both worlds and if you need to go on long trips and watch the verdict for plug in hybrid stands out for its high performance, long, purely electrical range, and low fuel consumption and emissions. pretty steep and the car only lives up to its potential. if you charge it regularly. of course all this technology only makes sense when you use it. probably so when you've got to plug in hybrids, whenever you've got the time, plug it in and don't let your internal combustion engine do the charging. thanks leon, we've learned a lot. i know it's tough, tough friends in berlin, and thank you ross. let's not forget the that's not just i'm going to do all sorts of my talk to that guy gets rituals. now you know the same with the outcome of mindsets. next didn't think, you know how long

because that makes sense and the compromise is fact and the rule of law debate within the european union comes back in a different form another day but doesn't stop this. i'm more concerned with the recovery fund, not that it gets stopped here but the next step to join physical policy takes a long time to having the progresses remain slow because news of the vaccines and economic recovery next year, the fiscal hawks return the same way as the monetary hawks return. that's more of a trend. the hurdle from hungary and poland, i think they'll back down in at least so far as where it concerns, having that fight now and blocking the budget and the process of the recovery fund i think we'll get this done. francine: thank you so much. we're getting a bit of breaking news out of the u.k., the regulator on the as practice citizen vaccine and more questions about one of the fastest moving shots after a company yesterday said a lower dosage level that appeared more effective resulted from after mag -- manufacturing screp answer and bloomberg speaking to the chief executive and he spoke about what happene

i have been wesson's and many activists so called the european union called the european commission for coming up with a strategy for 6, hearing equal rights in the european union, and for the 1st time in history, they are doing so. and of course, this is a huge step in and yet historical moment, not just for but for citizen rights in the european union in total. so what does the strategy include in detail? well, the strategy is including further steps to secure freight sound flow. legal rights rights for citizens by law all for example, to secure the status of rainbow families when it comes to who are there are lots of elements and discredit. she where are the e.u. commission is promising to protect l g b t i against discrimination because discrimination for example, with being a hate crimes against l. g b, t i citizens, online and offline. and i think this is very important stuff as well. surely, you know, there was all, for example, is very outspoken about polish towns that are said to be free from l. g b t. etiology. just this week, congress government proposed a law that would effectively

when the european union comes into effect probably have no problem.their fleet already has low emissions. unlike most other manufacturers, scrambling to the battery to avoid massive fines makes the best of both worlds and what's the verdict for plug in hybrid stands out for its high performance, long, purely electrical range, and low fuel consumption and emissions. pretty steep. and the car only lives up to its potential if you charge it regularly. of course all this technology only makes sense when you use it. probably. so when you've got to plug in hybrid, whenever you've got the time, plug it in and don't let your internal combustion engine do the charging. thanks, john. we've led the last. i know it's tough, tough friends in berlin, and thank you. ross. looks like someone local to me that's not just home. i'm going to do all sorts of mind talk to that guy, get rituals. now you know the same with the outcome of my entrance. next didn't think the time, but you know, you saw my fellow informal being space come up and see what the fuck do. i share con

tons of red tape at the border if they want to sell into the world's biggest trading block the european union come january the 1st. port operations of dover run like clockwork up to $10000.00 trucks pass through the busiest british seaport every day the vast majority of freight almost 99 percent is trade within the e.u. meaning it's not subject to customs checks that's all about to change outside the block companies will have to complete a lot of paperwork for the drivers here's a glimpse. a movement reference number is generated by a transit accompanying document and exit summary declaration and should be lodged with the goods vehicle movement service this then generate take goods movement reference which is given to the driver before i can't access a permit is secured to enter the county of kent where dover lives. should the driver lack one of the papers he can face a 300 pounds fine and could be sent back. their customs declarations that is he said this with your story experience we can read about 5000. agents in the u.k. we get any closer to 50000 agents. at this stage we have no one idea that

european union law. this is the real procedure to come into line with european standards.re right or when you have no dispute any more legally with the european commission, then comes the nice sentence that you don't fit the ideological picture, and the overall picture is wrong. so it is, i'm sorry to say, but in communist times, we have the same rhythm and methodology, that if you don't fit this line, if you don't fit ideologically what the mainstream is, then you get punished. and i'm really surprised... hang on. ..how bluntly they actually now are really naming it. well, you can... look at the declarations of many meps and some commissioners. you can sit there in budapest, i guess, and compare the european parliament to some sort of communist institution. you can choose to say that hungary is right and that all the other member states of the european union are wrong. 00:08:28,069 --> 2147483051:40:58,750 but that really is a very 2147483051:40:58,750 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 dangerous position. i'm not talking about the european parliament only. well, it's a very diffic

because you know as well as i do that when it comes to the rule of law, which, of course, is something you've signed up to as a core value of the european union the rule of law, poland in recent years and months has consistently violated that principle. rule of law, independent judiciary, your government has committed violation after violation. this is exactly the opinion of the european commission, of various european institutions, and this is one of the examples why we believe that there is no equal treatment in the european union. but the european union... let me finish this because this is very important. european union hasn't investigated one thing. they had an opinion based on political arguments that we are breaching certain european rules. we have been pointing repeatedly that every single provision in our law is similar or identical to other european member states. the process of appointing judges, it's much less politicised than in germany or france, it's very similar to the one in spain. it's less politicised than in uk or ireland because it's the judges, in the end, that appoint themselves, that promote themselves, that discipline

european way, at least in the sense that we exchange. so yesterday bioethics forum by national ethics committees of different countries from britain participated in particular. and we had mrs. will come from the european union and we discuss these issues. so it's really important to exchange on that and to come to a common strategy. on the other hand, we all know how difficult it is, although we know what would be the best to get europe to act as one person asked. and one thing is, what are we discussing? and the other thing is, what are the national states willing to do? and that only time will show. but i think the aim is to come to a concerted action. and to be a skirt you were talking about the international aspects of all this. india and south africa believe have already come out and said that there should be no peyton's on, at least some of the vaccines that come out. so they can be locally manufactured. is that a realistic route to go down? it's a good suggestion, how realistic it is, is difficult to say because development of the vaccine, obviously cause a lot of money. and many taxpayers have paid a lot of money into the development of the drugs. so to release, to put the patent right away, obvious
