well, earlier, ispoke to entertainmentjournalist kj matthews, who gave her reaction to adele's latesttely love it. can i be honest and tell you, i have had that song on all day, and i think my neighbours are probably wondering is she going to stop playing adele, and if so, when? it's such a great song. i mean, on youtube already, she — her music video has racked up more than 44 million times, and spotify devices say easy on me is the single is highest streamed song ever, so lots of people love it, even celebrities are weighing in, they are all saying how much they love it, and therese, the actor, he said thank god that she is back, we needed her, we missed her voice, we love adele, so everyone is welcoming her with opening arms as they drink a glass of wine and cry, because you know her songs always make you want to cry. talk to us more about the meaning of the song. what prompted adele to write it? what is she saying in it? she is 33 now, but she wrote the song when she was 30, and she was obviously experiencing the break—up with her now ex—husband, and really reflecting on what happ

well, earlier, ispoke to margaret kidd who's a logistics professor at the university of houston, anding had gone so wrong. well, it was this perfect storm within a storm. you had covid really interfering with manufacturing throughout asia, south—east asia, china and on—again, off—again at manufacturing. you had an insatiable demand by us consumers, which was fuelled by federal stimulus money. what you see is — what we are witnessing now is record trade and, regrettably, 36 to 40% of all trade with asia by container comes into la long beach. we certainly applaud the president's actions today, but one has to take a step back and kind of think we're in peak season currently, i mean, couldn't all of these stakeholders possibly have met months ago and come up with a plan? crosstalk yeah, a lot of people will be frustrated by exactly that — that this wasn't foreseen. given we are where we are, president biden has taken this step, taking the 24—hour working approach, what other kind of moves do you think are necessary now to get the world out of this? well, what we need to see is more near—

earlier, ispoke be released from stay—at—home orders.ut more about australia's opening up ryde. this is the first step in returning to normal, three major phases, and it all has to do with a number of vaccination on the vaccination rates. because new south wales has had 70% double—dose, this is why it is now starting to ease the lockdown. it will look quite different from those who are double vaccinated in new south wales. for example, restau ra nts, hairdressers wales. for example, restaurants, hairdressers and gyms are all open, children will start to go to school from next week. there are rules in place though. inside venues, only 20 people can gather. social distancing rules, masks apply. and the big one is that now it is down to business owners to make sure that customers provide proof of vaccination, and they have to be double vaccinated for them to be able to enjoy the easing of restrictions. we had the premier mr perrottet say it is a step forward but it is going to be challenging. i think there are two major things to look at fo

earlier, ispoke mandates come into effect on monday.sbro, president of the uniformed firefighters association of greater new york, asking how many of his members were unvaccinated. well, the deadline to report your vaccination status was several hours ago. the department hasn't released that information, but i can imagine that we're probably somewhere between 30 and 40% unvaccinated for firefighters. that's not counting fire officers — they're an older group — we expect that more of them are going to be vaccinated. they're probably between 20 and 30% unvaccinated. that's quite a sizeable number, especially when you're talking about a city like new york. what are the risks for the city if these people can't turn up to work on monday? well, i'm asking my members to show up for work. they took an oath to protect lives and property of new york city residents, and i'm telling them to go to work and i'm hoping the mayor allows them to work. in new york city, based on last year's statistics, every day there's 65 structural fires on average. ev

well, earlier, ispoke to parkland survivor and gun control activist david hogg.egislation. i asked what he made of the parkland gunman's guilty plea. honestly, i'm happy that things are moving forward and we can close this chapter and move through to any kind of closure that is possible for the community, but i would also point out that there are so many people in the united states impacted by gun violence, that people feel they are unable to get a form ofjustice in the first place, so we hope communities can get some form of that but the real work is about trying to prevent these things from happening in future. how frustrating is it for you that, since what happened to you and the people who were killed, nothing seems to have changed? deeply frustrating. because here in the us, unlike many countries such as the uk and others around europe, our response to these horrific incidents is to somehow ask ourselves for some reason, how we can work to protect somebody�*s right to have a weapon like the ar—is for the shooter at my high school is above trying to protect t
