but not does anybody in the u. k. in the u. k. they will, he's also to good friday agreement has to be maintained in terms of peace. and now there's another issue that's obviously been a big news over the last several days. and that is the pact for building nuclear powered submarines between australia, united kingdom and the united states. and france is none too happy about the how is that going to affect the economic relationship between france in the u. k? well, couple of things. number one, the french have to pull their french out of the u. s. and actually the french, if you remember that the oldest ally of the u. s. because they actually ganged up on us brits to our new orb independence. but i think it's very sad move, and she, particularly when they micro declared about now it's great that the adults are back in town when biden was elected. because this is being very childish to withdraw your ambassador. but now to your question brand with regard to the trade with the u . k, i mean, this isn't good for any kind of relations.

so amazon is booming in the u. k over 50 percent increase in sales via amazon during coded and taxes on those products should be paid in the u. k, which is where they were purchased. and so both johnson was that income coming back to the u. k. and you're never going to hear me argue against that exact point hillary for which of the british american business association. thank you so much for joining brent oil. and finally, an extremely rare, 1st edition printed copy of the us constitution will go under the hammer at the other b. as in november, the auction house said friday. the document is from the 1st official printing of the final tact of the constitution. it's believed there were roughly 500 copies of the document produced and were given to delegate of the constitutional convention in 1787. now there are just 11 known copies with the one up for auction being the last in private hands. document last old for $165000.00 in 1988, but said to be estimates, estimates the value is between $15.00 and $20000000.00. today,

k, but the reason that the u. k. government is holding back on this is because for the whole reason what they want to do is they want businesses to hire local u. k. british workers. that's what they want them to do. so that's why they're holding back and they're holding back on this. and they also want u. k. well, because to be trained up for these jobs, they don't just want to have a visas extended for those in europe. that's why it's being held up. hillary ford, which of the british american business association. thank you so much for breaking all this down. pleasure. and finally, at an event ahead of the 2021 munich auto show volkswagen an argo a i gave the 1st look at an electric autonomous vehicle, the id buzz. now the van is built around the concept of the iconic v w micro bus. but the vert, this virgin unveiled in munich is covered in high tech centers to bolster itself driving capability. companies say the id buzz will be tested on public roads in munich, as well as a private track in the city, with hopes o

the u. k. government is threatening to withhold millions of pounds promised her friends in order to help confront the migrant crisis. united kingdom accuses paris not pulling its weight as a record number of people continued to arrive on u. k. beaches after leaving from northern france. paris and return call the accusation. a serious loss of trust. shot adverse gosti has the story from london patel. i have friends, counterpart or yes. again in the middle of a war of words and it's all about the escalating crisis on the english channel. it comes as just yesterday alone, 800 people crossed the english channel, one of the world's busiest shipping line. so today, pre capital hosted a meeting with the french interior minister off the preacher battelle threatened to cut the 54000000 pounds pledge, a funding pledge to assist in the french operations over across the channel, unless small boats intercepted now that didn't go down too well with the french or socrates, many people in fact quite furious a

i think although the u. k is not absolutely at the heart of it, it certainly is not going to help this difficult relationship between france and the u. k. and it's not going to be good for either side. it's not good for the, for the british side is not to be good for the french are, they will try, i think, to find a way of getting past this. but because the french are not pointing the finger of blame at the u. k. as much as they are against the united states and australia, they're essentially saying that the u. k was not much more than an intermediary. and this kind of matchmaker between australia and the united states. if perhaps it will be easier for the u. k. and france to get over this hump than it will be for the united states. now straightest that's already challenges talking to us from london, rory, thank you very much. what china state back newspaper global times, as described, australia as a policy of the us and gullible, for buying into us cold war strategy. the chinese president has warned against w

and actually, every night, at 7 o'clock in the u. k, people were going outside of the houses and they were banging their pots and pans in recognition of people that were serving. and they, i know people in the u. s. i just tried to start something like that here because people were actually very impressed with how the n h s. obviously went to work with serving the nation during this time. but i would say this, the, you got it very accurate. the people are very supportive. it's the tax also, even though it is a tax scottie and i know you both. you and i are not like pro tax is only it is 1.25 percent, which is not in order. i wouldn't say that. so that's a huge tax. it is going to raise well over 12000000000, and that is what is needed to fund. so i think that it's a small tax relatively also there's been no doubt this has gone through with forest johnson's government. he's not a government that has stood for taxes, he's not a government, the conservative government that has been pro this but his back benches even that was sort of somew

u. k. also help the funding crisis and the health care sector due to the pandemic. we will give you the reaction and if other countries are expected to follow and its crime is rising in major cities around america, mayers are getting creative and how to curtail, especially in the cities who are choosing to reduce law enforcement budgets as well . we will tell you about one city who has decided that while crime can pay their, hoping the city can pay more over you this unorthodox approach and the chances of it actually working. i'm going to use these stories and more on today's news right here on our t america, let's get started. ah, well, the taliban is announcing a top leadership positions filling in post with veterans of the group who oversaw the 20 year fight against the united states. and many of the names involved are very familiar to the u. s. government ortiz, john had a, takes a closer look lead the new taliban government. pretty much same as the old taliban government. hardliners a

and as he said, most people in the u. k. fill up with petrol, which is what gases refer, fill up with petrol about once a month. you know, the average u. k. person doesn't drive anything more than about a 140 miles less and then driving less than 20 miles a day. but they knew me fill up once a month and now they all filled up over the weekend. not. and people were trying to those, it didn't or trying to because obviously the media, we saw the bbc sent out film. i can. so can, to report on this and it's called some panic buying and it's caused hoarding. whereas the average u. k. driver does not need to fill up over the weekend. right. so the average american is automatically getting flashbacks to the great toilet paper shortage of 2020. right? yes. okay. now i know we've been talking a lot about the labor shortages that have been ongoing. and as we heard the u. k. government in response to it on saturday they announced that they will issue $5000.00 emergency 3 month visa to foreign truck drivers starting in october and more

so you can't just say, well it's, it's just the u. k. problem because it is, and in fact as health care goes compared to european countries, any way you're better off in the u. k than most other countries. it has been better wrong and don't forget the vaccination process. over 90 percent of the u. k. public . what they call double jobs compared to the, the rest of the european union. so it's far more efficient than anywhere else in the, in the european union. so it's very well run and it's far more efficient. nevertheless, there is this backlog and that's why they've levied this tax post. johnson has said he doesn't want to go into more debt in order to from the n h s, the national health service. so how to the british people, how people you can react when their government says, you know, we more money from your taxing here in the us. they don't take it to well, well they don't, but i'll show you golf poll has said that over 64 percent of the british public is in favor of this tax. why the n h s actually in the u. k. is considered it so

even though the u. k. prosecutors actually claimed that the investigators found out that he remained in london during his entire stay in the u . k. london has authorized the charges against the man, but he cannot be formally charged before he's arrested. and they believe that he is currently in russia, so that cannot happen for now. recap, brings on this one is well known case in britain, maybe not so much for the rest of the world, just recap it briefly because it's a complicated case. let's go back to march 2018 when survey script ball, who had served as a russian spy for years, but then eventually turned into a double agent back that he felt severely ill along with his daughter, and soon after that the u. k. and its western allies began accusing russia of poisoning mister scribble, and they began to knowing that a murder attempt. this was when you case, former prime minister. theresa may famous famously said that russia was, quote, unquote, highly likely guilty without providing the public with any evi

u. k. as a straight, he draws a strong reaction from around the world. french special forces say they've killed isolate leader in west africa, to hel, region, 20 tanker trucks, cross 11 and from syria bringing desperately needed fuel. so a country that's nearly run drive the west african regional block echo was holes an emergency summit to discuss the political situation in guinea. on his foot little messy. first off of our son, jamal doesn't go to plan that your team health, a 11 job by club brouge in the european champions league. ah, a new security alliance that was planned in secret between the united states the you can't astray the a, a sent shock waves through the international community. under the real, the us of the u. k. of agreed to help us trailer develop nuclear power submarines that calling the initiative orcus, the french government is angry because it already had a multi 1000000000 dollar deal to build submarines for australia. but now that's going away. since i'm all those s

i was this playing out in the u. k. well, the u. k is not having its french ambassador recalled in the same way that the united states and the australians have done. but that doesn't mean that the french are happy with the role the united kingdom has played. and in this deal, they have essentially fed through the foreign ministry, the 3 for a minister that the u. k. is nothing more than i kind of vassal state of the united states as to how this is playing out in the u. k. i think this is being seen as perhaps the french being a little bit hysterical about things as throwing their toys out of the prime to a certain extent. but you have to acknowledge that france has been really, really thrown under the bus and this, and i think in the u. k, that view is not being ignored. they can see that this was a big deal for france. they can see that this is a humiliation for macro and, and they can see that this throws french strategy in the indo pacific region into disarray. so the rivalry between france, the united kingdom is long, it goes bac

an ideological prejudice the u. k and the u. s. have long maintained a significant naval and air presence in the in the pacific region. in competition with china, the injection of australia, nuclear power submarines could well intensify this new cold war under the water as well as above. mike hannah 0, washington or china delivered its latest criticism of the lines through its foreign ministry, which said the partnership is damaging to regional peace and security spokesman added that providing australia with nuclear submarine technology will hurt. international anti proliferation efforts may war war. we are the leon, down the u. k in u. s. are about to export powerful technology to a strike. and that shows that they using nuclear exports as a geo political tool. applying double standards and which is extremely responsible astrologer is a non nuclear weapon state party to the n p t and a party to the nuclear weapons free zone in the southern pacific. now it's importing nuclear power submarine technology with strategic military value

well, i honestly don't think the u. k is very different from pretty well any other country, which is that they want to maximize the economic benefits from f also fuel resources answer only the u. k. i am very critical and i have been very critical both plans to open a new coal mine and the u. k. and plans to extend the instructional north sea oil and gas for precisely the reasons that we were discussing earlier. that a very high proportion of these results is need to stay in the ground. you gave evidence at this, and i'm sure you're aware of what your opponent say, because you said we shouldn't be opening minds something i'm sure shared by a lot of people around the world. what did you make of wood mckenzie? some consultancy firm claiming the mind can make a contribution to future global metallurgical coal supply within the context of u. k. u meeting, legally binding carbon emissions and targets. well, i mean, i would say that wouldn't be where we're hearing increasing bizarre frames from the fossil fuel industry that it

in london, it took the u. k. investigators 10 years to conclude that the kremlin was probably behind the murder of alexander live and go in london. the investigation also found that 2 russian nationals, one of them, a former k g b body guard, deliberately poisoned mister, let ben ankle by adding polonium to his drink. so now the european court of human rights has ruled that there was initial evidence that these 2 washing nationals acted as agents of the russian state. besides this, they're saying that the fact as they're putting it that russia failed to refute these claims. it only puts an extra gate limit in this case the so i'm sorry will pressure on in. and i can tell you that the russian foreign ministry spokes, when marie, as a harbor at this point, is saying that the european court of human rights is turning into a russo fallback organization. but here's what dmitri past gulf was also saying, it's doubtful that the european court of human rights has the authority or technological capabilities to possess su

an australia failures in u. k. energy security at home have even mainstream media suggesting christmas could be canceled. i probably, or the results of casino capitalism. and we asked the economists to help set the interest rates for the bank of england during the 28th crash about china as possible. lehman moment. and if you cation serve as a warning for other unregulated and privatized energy industries across the neo liberal wealth, all is a more coming up in today's going underground. but 1st is morris johnson flew to new york for today's un general assembly meetings, questions were being raised even in washington about the energy crisis back in britain, arguably even more than the ever grant the property crush that hit the dow jones. so will that really be no turkey for chris? joining me now from newcastle is steven redman, the ceo of the u. k. energy supply green. thank you so much, steve steven for coming on the show quasi quad thing used to come on this job or johnson government minister. we know it's a bri

it has highlighted the u. k as a one country, which is going to see more of the push in terms of inflation because of the supply chain constraints that he would just discussing earlier. which are going to be much tougher in the u. k than perhaps in other places which are also having some of those issues. but not to the extent we're explain to them here the rank in the british tabloids having a field day with this. i keep reading headlines that suggest that truck drivers now being offered signing on bonuses of like 2000 pounds. there's wages of like 70066270000 pounds a year for a truck driver. how much of that is true and how much of that is actually gonna work like, can you bribe the people into becoming truck drivers quickly? i think a lot of those huge wage forgot her absolute nonsense. that's not. busy why i'm hearing from drivers, i speak on the ground level. there's a lot of suspicious sort of figures that got bonded up by very large companies and doing some one phase and 2 phase and pain. golden handshake

however, when the u. k blatantly refused to cooperate or provide publicly any proof of russian involvement. the officials in moscow began blaming the u. k. authorities for using this case simply as a tool to demonize russia. and here's what exactly the problem said at that time. from the very beginning, the russian side has always been ready for cooperation. but it's received either refusal or silence in response. coincidentally, with the u. k. police announcement the european court of human rights on tuesday has ruled that the kremlin is responsible for the murder of alexander live in a code that dates back to 15 years ago. dates back to 2006. what's new in that case said, well, when it comes to the ruling by a top you are being human rights court. i can tell you that this pretty much nothing new. it's all repetition of the claims that were made by the u. k. somewhat 5 years ago. but let me just go through that story quickly. the death of alexander, let me go, a former russian spy who turned a british citi

so i go to a u. k. source to see why france might be upset about this whole australian u. k. america submarine deal. diplomacy, the established method of influencing the decisions and behavior of foreign governments and people to dialogue, negotiation and other measures short of war or violence. modern diplomatic practices are product of the post renaissance european state system. they do point out that the, the term diplomacy is derived by a friend from an ancient greek word. of course, everything comes from greece and folded document. i fold the document that are a print prints or a king used to give you to travel and you were an envoy, a for the state to negotiate on their behalf. and importantly, one more thing is that they say diplomatic activity endeavors to maximize a groups. advantages without the risk and expense of using force and preferably without causing resentment. as we see there's a lot of resentment right now. right, right. reminds me of george w bush membrane says a problem with the franchise. they don't have a word for entrepreneur. and of course, that wa

and the u. k. a. today they work within their own proper alliance with 5 eyes project with canada as well. and then the u. s. included, they work more closely. it's like within the anglo saxon world, these are the real, this is the real alliance. and they were much closer together than they do when there are other allies. and this is why france has been excluded. i think because the u. k. australia and the, and the u. s. trust themselves more than the new trust countries like france or other ones, community or even germany. when you bring up the issue of trust. as you were saying, europe in america was supposed to be working together on defense such as nathan with you said together. is it possible that a, a new security packed with australia, the u. k. in america, could this undermine nato, in any way? do you think? i don't forget the manual macro said a couple years ago that data was brain dead. even donald trump said that nato had to be reviewed. nato isn't working as it's supposed to be. it was init

trying to fill up in the u. k. then i break through these getting some of the blame for brits having to line up for petrol with the country, using many european drivers for it ditched e membership. as a partial remedy, the u. k. government has now offered temporary visas to thousands of foreign fuel tanka and heavy goods vehicle drivers that would last until christmas. however many, including an official from a dutch trades union have rejected the idea this offering of shows interest, no strategic strategy to solve the issue in the industry. because shot that song virus is foreseen for many years already. and the reason why there are a lower number of divers drive a simply leave the profession because the working conditions are not what it should be. and this will not be solved when handing out 5000 fish out and are analyzes u. k is now in the perfect storm, perfect storm and a negative weight. because to watch it, many your workers who work inside the u. k. left the u. k already far, because it was in the stable bu

now the u. k. will embark on this project alongside our allies, making the world safer and generating jobs across united kingdom. thank you. over to you, mr. president. thank you board and i want to thank that fell down under. thank you very much. appreciate this privacy. i am honored to day to be joined by to america causes allies, australian united kingdom, to launch a new phase of the trilateral security cooperation among our countries. as prime minister morrison and primus, or johnson said, i want to thank you for this partnership, your vision, as we embarked together on this strategic mission. although throughout the u. k. and us partnership, august, to sound strange and all these acronyms. goodwin, arcus, our nations, will update, enhance our shared ability to take on the threats of the 21st century. just as we did and the 20th century. together, our nations and our brave fighting forces have stood shoulder to shoulder for literally more than 100 years to the trench fighting a war one, the is

and when we spoke to a small u. k. energy supplier about the possibility of wholesale re nationalization of britain's energy security. but now to the economic fall as of the crisis and what it means rather privatized and unregulated sectors across the liberal nations. i've joined now by david blanch flower economist and form. remember the bank of england interest rate setting monetary policy committee from $26.00 to $29.00. thanks so much for coming back on a course that year. those years, including the 28th crisis. i mean, before we get to your favorite prime minister of recent times where it's johnson, who's in new york, addressing the un, is the whole world about to collapse because of ever granted. or do we even know whether a property firm into connected and into linked to so much of global capitalism poses that risk? well, i think it probably poses the risk. i mean that you're quite right. we don't exactly know. i mean, what, what, what exactly is going on and whether the chinese government is going to let this

on wednesday, australia, the u. k and the u. s. on vell orcus, it's a defense agreement aimed at countering china in the in the pacific. bought it, cuts france out of a 2016 deal to build diesel power submarines for australia in favor of nuclear power attack from the u. k. and us it li, frank, tens of billions of dollars poorer, and it's being seen by paris as a gross deception by friends and allies. you muscle of therapy lies. yeah, there has been duplicity. there has been a major break of trust. there's been contempt. so it's not going well between us, not at all. still there are those who think parents is overreacting. i think, you know, it was not necessary. i mean, we have never recalled. previously i went back to the from washington and it's really very bad manners from the americans to, to was wrong. i mean, really medic, treating my call like the dog and song, but it's only bad manners. and i think that vengeance is a meal that should be served cold. after you. k. francis sped london, the sting of pulling home it's ambassad

in the u. k, they don't have the freedom to move around to pick things and move them somewhere else . which means that you've had that shortage there to the unwillingness for people to take on a load and bring you over to the u. k. which said, deprive you, of course, all workers who might be able to drive other tracks or even their own truck and take things around because of the change in the cab, what does room she can do that very easily any longer because we are outside the you have it, i am just going to come to you in just a moment. i want to bring in doug you rankin hit one of the interesting things about this is this temporary visa situation. meghan issue 5000 temporary truck driver licenses. they get a last 3 months, but i was on a couple of romanian chat platforms where they were reacting to this, this particular in romania where they were like, why would we build that? why would we go for just 3 months? i've got a good job here. not going to give it up just to go and help the bread. so

and a prison proven the u. k reveals a series of failings in the case of a teenager inmate and lost her newborn child.

i think although the u. k is not absolutely at the heart of it, it certainly is not going to help this difficult relationship between france and the u. k. and it's not going to be good for either side. it's not good for the, for the pressure side is not gonna be good for the french odd. they will try, i think, to find a way of getting past this spot. because the french are not pointing the finger of blame at the u. k. as much as they are against the united states and australia, they're essentially saying that the u. k was not much more than an intermediary and this kind of matchmaker between australia and the united states. if perhaps it will be easier for the front to get over this hump than it will be for the united states and australia to renew gerad is the chief foreign correspondent with love to god or professor of strategic strategy. rather, at the paris school of international affairs, he says, france suit, stand up to the us. vengeance is a meal that should be served cold. it's just a lesson that has b
