ian carter is editorial director at iliffe media, and, ian, before we get into your experiences lasteek, tell us more about the titles you've got. because i think you're one of the last family—owned newspaper groups. we are indeed. iliffe itself is a very long—established publishing company. the family's run papers for centuries, but the titles we have now, newspapers include the kent messenger, the daily free press, the cambridge independent. we run lots of websites, kent online being our biggest one. and also have radio stations down in kent. so, a real big media portfolio. fantastic, and rebecca whittington, i'm going to bring you in here because you're the brand—new online safety editor at reach. you only started this role, i think, a fortnight ago. congratulations. which newspaper titles will you be working with at reach? well, i'm going to be working across the board at reach, so kind of group—wide, so that's the national titles and the regionals as well. obviously they're quite different in terms of what they do, but actually this issue is an issue across the board. well, that

today's panel is anne applebaum and ian bremer. pulitzer prize winning historian whose latest book is "twilight of democracy." and ian is the founder of the global risk consultancy. anne, this is a part of america you know very, very well. your book about russia "the gulag" won the pulitzer prize. what is vladimir putin up to? does he intend to invade ukraine? and if not, what's the game plan? >> so sadly, i don't have any profound insight into putin's brain, and i cannot predict what will happen. if you look at the situation rationally, a russian invasion of ukraine would be insane. putin my get to kiev quickly but then what? he would occupy a country that doesn't want to be occupied indefinitely, he would live with a guerrilla war and violence for many years. i talked to several people in russia who don't even believe something like that would even be popular in russia . >>> on monday the united states said it would not send any diplomats or any other officials to the beijing winter olympics set to begin february 4th. the next da

ian can -- ian: you're right. china, as a market is the biggest market for semiconductors. it is the biggest market for pcs. intel absolutely has to have access to that market. it cannot jeopardize that. at the same time, there our rules. in the u.s., there is a political bias towards looking at what china is doing now that is growing stronger that it also has to deal with. if an apology -- an apology letter does not look good anyway you put it. i think intel does not want to be in the news for this kind of thing. it is not want consumers in china in that massive good paying attention to it for what is being portrayed as negative reasons. taylor: because of a boycott? ian: yes. this is the key here. could we really boycott intel? without input if intel factories 80% of the world's pcs will not be made. so there is only so far that could go. at the same time, intel is already dealing with marketshare losses at the hands of amd and that is coming out of production. could it accelerate the shift? i suppose it could. but, not a wholesale boycott because everybody needs intel no

ian gardiner remembers the conflict well.ce of the sultan." a rare chronicle of the brutal incredibly difficult and almost entirely unknown war, fought in the rugged southern mountains. >> ian: the old sultan was not an inhumane man, but he was an old man, and he was deeply reactionary, so he wanted to keep his country in a medieval time warp. the thing that changed it, was the advent of a japanese transistor radio. for the first time his people could hear what other arab countries were doing with their oil, and they wanted some of that. >> anthony: by the 1920's winston churchill switched the royal navy's mode of power from coal to oil. and suddenly, everything changed. they needed oil, and lots of it. which made oman vital not for its limited oil resources, but for where it is, the strait of hormuz. the persian gulf's femoral artery, 20% of the world's oil flows through here making it one of, if not the most strategically important waterways on the planet. by 1970 sultan taimoor's counter insurgency was not going well. he w

joining me again, anne applebaum and ian bremmer.hina does seem to be part of a kind of expression of the balancing act that the united states is now trying to play with china. on the one hand, athletes are participating in a sense the united states is participating, but there won't be any government officials there. it feels like an effort to metaphorically have the same policy towards china, which is some deterrence, some toughness but at the same time recognizing the reality it's a big trading partner. >> and recognition if biden loses votes at home and he's seen too soft on china, like they did in 2020 as a consequence of the whole biden asia trope. so they did move ahead with a diplomatic boycott. but frankly it's not just that the athletes are still going. there's no economic going or sponsors to pull out of the olympics. we've seen a number of different signs, small but matter, that show the american and chinese are trying to find ways to cooperate when it's clearly in the company's best national interest. here the announcemen

ian complained and even alerted the council, but nothing changed. of discrimination. local authorities should make reasonable adjustments to remove barriers to disabled people under the equality act. the council owns around 1,800 properties across the borough, but it isn't responsible for enforcing the act. ian's trying to get a taxi home calling from the offices of whitby disabled action group. he's called eight companies so far. across the borough i think there are about six accessible taxis, in whitby we have two. so the chances of somebody getting one are very slim. what we need is for disabled people to shout loud and to tackle things. we'd like change quickly. it's happening very slowly. we asked scarborough borough council for an interview and they provided a statement saying... we asked the owners of abbey wharf restaurant for an interview, but they declined. they did say they were doing everything in their power to rectify the situation and a lift will be installed. but when you're living with a terminal disease, the time for change is now.

ian thank you for joining us this thursday morning.s you look at the response of central banks, the dot plot outlining three rate hikes from the fed in 2022 and you way up the implications of omicron, how do you layer on what we know about this variant to how it changes or not the response from central banks, notably the fed? >> we have had an interesting 24 hours. as you point out, the news has been on the positive side when it comes to omicron. the question we have had within markets in the last few weeks is that transmissibility versus how severe the virus for the variant is going to be and it looks like the severity is coming down. is it coming down enough to offset the increased transmission of it? i think there are still a lot of questions to be asked to know that and we should be getting more information as the days go past. this has so far been good news from the central bank standpoint. i think central banks made a fairly strong statement last week where they had probably the ability to push some of these decisions into 2022,

ian cull is in the newsroom with some answers. ian?sy to find one, especially as concern grows over the new variant. and tonight, we are learning a little more about it. the pfizer vaccine may not be as effective against omicron, according to that new study but some doctors are urging calm tonight. tonight, new data from a small study in south africa is making headlines around the world. it is based on just 12 covid patients, but suggests pfizer's vaccine is less effective against the omicron variant. a 40fold decrease in vaccine-induced antibodies that could neutralize the new variant. but the research, not yet peer reviewed, does show those who got covid before, and then were vaccinated, fared much better. indicating boosters may provide added protection. ucsf infectious disease expert dr. monica gandhi says the study shouldn't be alarming. >> but what that doesn't tell us is the two arms of the immune system that are still at work for us, and what they are called is, um, you develop with vaccines t cells and b cells. and t cells pro
