but first of all, laurence, that is not happening. uk, people are not restricted in their travel by law. they are advised to do certain things and not do other things, but there isn't the draconian sort of imposition of controls that we've seen in other european countries, so it's a mixed bag. and in terms of that mixed bag, and let's not forget what you've already said about america, the idea that a recession can be avoided now looks completely unrealistic. what we are doing at the 0ecd with all the economists that are being there is monitoring underground, day—by—day, what is happening, and what i mean by that is we are looking at sector by sector — what's closed? what's working? how many people have stopped working? i will give you an example — tourism, globally, that is nearly 320 millionjobs. it is nearly 10% of the workforce and they are nearly all not working today, so there is a lot of uncertainty, we are trying to assess how things are going, and i think we need to start really looking at what is happening country by country,

laurence boone in paris, welcome to hardtalk. thank you, thanks for the invitation. pleasure to have you on the show, your own president, president macron talks about a war. has country in the world being engaged in a war against coronavirus. do you see that actions are matching the words when it comes to trying to say that the world economy? there are actually three fronts on which we have two fight this battle. health, financial and social. with health, i think there could be more cooperation with the who because at the moment it is about data collection, provision of supplies, equipment, and testing. there seems to be a little black. 0n economic and finance, we are actually seeing a lot happening stopping many governments are putting in place measures to address the healthcare system, but also people to make sure they can support people to make sure they can support people during this virus as well and firms make sure that firms do not go under with the hardship that is going on at the moment. but there is this question of urgency, because you talk about individua

that's what even reliably liberal legal experts like laurence tribe and neil kagel have publicly urged. instead, our colleague doubled down, doubled down. he tried to gaslight the entire country and stated that he was actually threatening fellow senators, as though that would be much better. but that's sufficient. and then a few hours later, the democratic leader tripled down. instead of taking chief justice roberts' sober statement to heart, he lashed out again and tried to imply the chief justice was biased, biased for doing his job and defending the court. let me say that again. he tripled down and he lashed out yet again and tried to imply the chief justice was biased for doing his job and defending the court. our colleague therefore succeeded in attacking 33% of the supreme court in space of a few hours. throughout the impeachment, in the senate trial, for months, washington democrats preached sermons about the separation of powers and respect between equal branches. so much for all of that. and sadly, this attack was not some isolated incident. the left-wing campaign against the

laurence boone, the oecd chief economist from paris. ?hy such a dramatic statement why is the comparison with the financial crisis a good one? it is the size of the be --which may [indiscernible] -- which are having a big impact on the economy. , so what weertainty have done is have a base case based on geography and magnitude. that would remove global growth. then we also have the downside scenario equation, where the america,goes for north europe, and a wider range, and that is a much bigger blow to the economy. guy: a lot of people are now speculating that we are going to see a monetary policy reaction, that the fed, the ecb, the mek of japan are all going to cut -- the bank of japan are all going to cut. what effect is that going to have, given that monetary policy is incapable of helping us with the virus? dr. boone: this is a very good question. there was a shakeup at the end of last week. central banks showed that they are ready to act. they can provide the liquidity that the market stability will need. we do not need a financial c

laurence boone, i thank you very much forjoining me on hardtalk. hello, there.land that had the best of the day's bright weather, with some spells of sunshine coming through, for example in this weather watch picture from the aviemore area. it was not like that everywhere though. for england and wales, we've had a slow—moving weather front with us for a couple of days now, and that's been bringing some murky weather and outbreaks of light rain and drizzle. that front is this stripe of cloud you can see here. and it is this weather front that separates the mild but rather murky weather to the south, to the clearer, sunnier conditions, but colder conditions that we have across the north of the uk. now, over the next few hours, that weather front is still with us, bringing cloud and rain, murky as well across parts of the midlands, wales and southern counties of england, with some hill fog patches. but it is the cloud that stops it from getting too cold, so it's actually quite mild. temperatures for some at around eight celsius over the next few hours. whereas, fur

hello there, laurence, you have been taking a big look the role of these stories. let's start off with the lead story on the daily telegraph. patients are being told to stay at home if they get a mild virus. there is increasing worry about the impact on the nhs of this outbreak. absolutely, yeah. and i think concerns have been raised in the uk because obviously they had the first fatality of someone within the country, sort of yesterday. and of course we have the daily telegraph quoting the nhs‘s medical director with this advice which, actually, i don't think it's too far from what the original advice was a couple of weeks ago when it wasn't as much of a concern in the uk. which is essentially ring the nhs helpline when you talk about your symptoms and then someone is as actually it sounds like it is not that serious, so stayed home. clearly, if we see this sort of level of cases that have been seen, i know country such as italy, the stress on the nhs may be quite severe. the problem is of course many people, particularly older generations who feel they really are

individual choices and trying just to to delay it simple and flatten the curve as far as you can laurence the situation in london where you are with the health minister not in doris obviously she's put herself in quarantine now but what's the talk about the potential knock on effect about how many people she's been in touch with about the effect on the british government who. well i mean the times newspaper which reported this said and they got fully briefed on it said she that she'd been musta been in concert with hundreds of people over the period and that must be true but snitches junior health minister jobs to meet people they they should she started getting properly at the weekend on saturday in their constituency north of london but in the days before that when she was cleaning the basing it she'd been in the house of commons she'd been voting they're all very tightly packed together when they go to the voting lobbies she met the prime minister on thursday it's a international women's day event. and an opposition health minister orders shadow called call rachel maskell who met who m

patients alive germany which has reported more than $31000.00 cases maintained a low death rate laurence lees our correspondent following events for us suffer from london it does seem that europe is in it for the long haul lawrence when it comes to coronavirus itself with sort of no real end in sight the e.u. surely has to start working out how to keep their respective economies afloat. yeah that's that's exactly right and clearly one of the problems the in the european union is the key countries which are being hit the hardest a little being hit the hardest the same time so clearly the money is still italy any hope things are getting best bits of it was was dashed overnight over 600 cases in is many many days it's more than 700 cases a day for the last 5 days and it's really no idea whether when the spikes going to end really spain is a couple weeks behind france so that's 420 cases yesterday behind that. and so it is very difficult to see exactly when in its entirety the european union will be able to say ok as as a block of countries 19 of which share the same currency we're now in a

you can follow that via their website of course lawrence lee joins us live now from london so laurence bit of a contradiction going on here between how the u.k. government is handling handling all this and how other european governments are handling it. yes peter i mean is when it is one of those days i think i think today after all the chaos of yesterday were a thing there's a new reality basically down the sink in here in the u.k. and or in the continent as well as you mentioned but yes you can see the difference in in of in a country for example i garland where there the irish government in dublin and yesterday was shutting schools and universities and so on for 2 weeks yet in northern islands which obviously is under the u.k. jurisdiction everything stay open and there is a completely different interpretation of the science now going on between european union countries that are trying to follow italy's leads and get ahead of where italy was a few weeks ago by containing everything is as much as possible in the u.k. which is saying exactly the opposite of the argument here where sch

. >> stephen: constitutional law scholar laurence tribe says the argument that only criminal offenses impeachable has died a thousand deaths in the writings of all the experts on the subject, but it staggers on like a vengeful zombie. look, larry, you may not agree with the president's allies, but i think that the term "vengeful zombies" is a little-- oh. ( laughter ) oh. on the nose. on the nose. >> jon: oh, that thing right there. ( cheers and applause ) >> stephen: i object! but the ultimate insult against trump's defense brief is the allegation that it is "so weak he likely dictated parts himself." now, we don't know if this is true, but there is a hint of that in this section which resident, "the articles of impeachment now before the senate are an affront to the constitution. hello, i'll take a large meat- lover's pizza. extra meat. extra lover. bye. damn! i forgot the garlic knots!" ( laughter ) >> jon: you don't never get 'em. >> stephen: and here's the thing-- donald trump is taking none of this lightly. with his presidency on the line, trump is turning to his favorite legal

that's why it was refreshing to see liberal legal scholars like laurence tribe condemn schumer's remarksim to apologize saying it's beneath him and his office. he's right. but that's also while we should wonder why those have been silent when president trump attacks judges. after all, last week, president trump suggested sotomayor and ginsburg recuse themselves. then there was the time trump rage tweeted at a judge over his travel ban saying if something happens, blame him in the court system. that judge received more than a hundred death threats after that. or the time he insisted that the indiana-born judge in the trump university case couldn't be impartial because -- >> this is a mexican heritage. i'm building a wall. >> there's a lot of performative outrage in politics today. a lot of pointing to the other side. but principles only matter if they're aplayed equally to people on both sides of the aisle. senator schumer should apologize because . to borrow a line from chief justice roberts, we should call balls and strikes based on what's right or wrong without fear or favor from whate

go to walk grocery shopping or for health reasons why lawrence lee is live for us now in london laurence given the trajectory that we've been seeing in europe and across the continent clearly countries the in it for the long haul and they're having to also try to address the economic concerns going forward as well. yes i mean clearly there are 2 things in parallel at the same time as they does the public health emergency and there's what do you do to rescue entire economies of countries when when governments are asking people literally not so we're told also work and insofar as they can at home when there's very little productivity going on. both of those obviously are enormously difficult on the health care front the thing that's becoming increasingly clear is that european countries completely underestimated exactly how much protective equipment they would need for doctors and nurses and exactly how many medical mechanical ventilators they would need as well once the virus starts spreading into europe from from china to reuters news agency islam this alternate this has got its hands on

be bringing us the latest from beijing 1st let's take it to london and my colleague laurance lee laurence 19 doris they'll be clearly trying to track down everyone that she's had a meeting or a conversation with over the past 10 days or 2 weeks or so. and that's going to be hundreds of people because she's a government minister obviously part of daily job is to meet people she now said last night she says she's over the worst of it the simpsons she said came out properly on saturday when she was in her constituency north of london. and clearly for the days before that should we think the basing its during that period of incubation not only had she been voting in the house of parliament surrounded by obviously some 600 or more of the other members of parliament but on thursday as unsubtle women's day had been at an event in downing street and i'm being with the prime minister so it's clearly very serious because not just the dollars a government is of the heart of the government department that's at the forefront of trying to organize the u.k.'s response to the virus and peter one thing th

damon, kate winslet and laurence fishburne recorded the messages.in his while winslet urges people the wash their hands like their life depends on it. and fishburne appeals for help for medical staffers on the front line. it explores a scenario in which a lethal and fast-moving virus is spreading around the world. i've seen it before. but true confession, a few weeks ago hen this started, i watched it again. it was eerily similar. the virus was much more instantly deadly in the movie. but the way it spread and the way people responded not dissimilar to what we're dealing with now. >> that's so interesting. it's nice that they're speaking out and kind of making things clear. that's a movie. this is real life. >> and taken very seriously. it's a great idea. >> yeah, dan. >> sometimes it takes a well-known name. i was going to say sometimes it takes a well-known name for face to get people's attention, especially at an importatime li. >> true. >> i think it only took them four months to get a vaccine in the movie, right? our timeline seems to be a lot

mcbride in seoul to take in the developments across asia and east asia 1st to london and my colleague laurence li so lawrence we're talking 1st about the european markets how are they doing. better but not much better in london at the moment the footsies up about 3 and a half percent in the dax and the cac counts in frankfurt and paris are also up a couple of percent. it may be partly to do with the fact that the markets are a bit more satisfied with the response both from the u.k. governments and the european union then the american markets certainly were with donald trump's attempt at a strategy the other day i think it seems more though. if you take here in london for example the market dropped from about 70025000 the enormous drop as you said not seen since black monday night in 87 and i think there's a view that some shares might now be actually undervalued and so traders are trying to recoup a little bits of what they've lost by actually buying some stocks back that are now too low but that's not to say it is a recovery everybody is very much of the view that this is going to take months

of being caught in the middle laurence 3 al-jazeera township rakhine state myanmar with us now from bangkok when robinson who is a senior fellow at the institute of security and international studies. university nice to have you with us this. first of all our men in the buddhists. a good reminder as well that this is not just about. muslims they have a range of muslims out there other minorities who are under pressure. indeed i think this it's been a slow burning thing for many years but after this terrible expulsion of muslims from the state it left i mean it it really exposed tonight i think that paved the way for the for the showdown with saying between what are essentially 2 buddhist i mean they both buddhists the myanmar government forces and the what they call if nic rakhine who indigenous to the state came from there and what wants what they called a part of the kingdom so this is really a voters to put this clash and in a month things to complicate it you still have muslim or hindu refugees and some some of the remaining camps in rakhine so it's become an exceedingly complicated sit

and again we were just talking to laurence about the trajectory of the spread that we've been seeing in europe how prepared is the u.k. for an upsurge in cases there if it does indeed fall as serious as that expected today. that is worrying many people here is lawrence said it's probably 2 weeks behind italy here or maybe one week behind spain and they really do the mapping really does seem to show that britain is following quite tightly what's happened on continental europe so at the moment many nurses for example on social media are urging people to stay indoors there have been campaigns by health workers because they say that they're already full already having to move some patients to other parts of hospitals so that they can deal with coronavirus patients and they're extremely worried that if there is this upsurge that they're just going to be overwhelmed they're already extremely under pressure and they're worried for their own safety as well because in many instances they say they're not being tested if they were then they would know if they were ok if they did have to white s

that a little later on we've also got these 3 correspondents bringing us developments this hour laurence lay there he is in london with the latest updates from the u.k. and you're in johannesburg i mentioned this of africa with its 1st 2 deaths katrina you also with the latest from beijing starting though with this which you're well familiar with i'm sure the johns hopkins university virus tracker which puts the total confirmed cases well up over a 1000000 worldwide now with nearly 25000 deaths if you take a quick look at the map you can see the at the centers of china and europe but really the united states is the story now when we zoom in on north america and you can see how much more infection there is there as i said upwards of 85000 cases in the united states alone right let's start going around the world i will go with katrina you in beijing 1st of all she jinping offering his support to the united states in light of those numbers for a virus that has been called the virus. that's right so during this phone call president xi jinping called for greater cooperation across the world i

. >> now, in this show yesterday, laurence tribe of harvard university confirmed what we suspected all along, that cuomo was right and trump had no constitutional authority to claim he could quarantine whole states. right on cue, trump almost immediately backed down. tweeting that he has advised the cdc to issue a travel warning, but that he determined a quarantine will, quote, not be necessary. not necessary? man, try not legally possible. but go on apprentice guy, go off. of course, it is hardly news that trump has always had designs on reigning as a monarch with unlimited power rather than serving as a mere president in a democracy. with the country facing an unprecedented public health crisis, what lengths might he, backed by an attorney general whose write aenings and actionst to a power, what lengths might he go to? another case in point, the special inspector general that the democrats fought tooth and nail for in the gargantuan $2.2 trillion economic relief bill was supposed to be an objective third party, overseeing which megacorporations get bailouts and how they spend the mo
