what do you make peters comments there? well, i'm always mystified by peter's comments, because if this is against capitalism, he does have a problem of explaining it is everybody wrong except him? is everybody making a terrible mistake? is the system self most people? yeah. i don't think i don't think so. i think this is a system that's got basic problems and he is trying to solve them by printing a great deal of money and exploding. it's dead. it's really solving one set of problems by this, that creation by there is monetization and then it creates a new set. and it has bumbled through for 2 or 3 centuries, doing this over and over again. and everybody kind of knows that eventually you're going to solve one problem by creating another one. and then you won't be able to solve it. and then the system will come down. that's the problem. and there american capitalism do great until the u. s. government corrupted it. we had a vibrant free market economy under a gold standard. when we had honest money where we didn't have a fe

peter, it's been described as unprecedented. a massive escalation of the crisis of the rule of law in poland. what are the implications of this if poland doesn't voluntarily withdraw from the union? what are the chances of it being frozen out legally, from within? well, legally, it's not possible to exclude the member states that the european commission can initiate and under infringement procedure discount ultimately culminate in a fine. if paul does not pay the fine, then the commission can sort of take the money from the transfers that the polish states receives from the, the european union. there's also the so called article 7 procedure, which in theory allows member states to, to, to vote. so poland no longer has voting rights and this is all of course political. ready science fiction, i think in practice the priority will be to try to find a political solution. and i understand that that's what many beliefs is behind all this. many belief, like the polish guess, says that the pull polish constitutional court is actually in

really understand why french doings peter it. do you believe that absolution can be found to this that it's supported by other e u member states or? well, what we saw is that france has been making quite aggressive threats, including the threatening to cut off of it's tricity to the, to the u. k. or to jersey and guarantee, i mean, the question is, ultimately if they would do that mean again, it would probably hurt france as a, as a electricity exporter versus so i don't think they will go that far. what we saw is that the other european governments are supporting france in theory, but they do not necessarily support all the aggressive rhetoric. so they do not necessarily support all the, the threats that have been coming from the, from the, from the french sites. so as i mentioned, yes, ultimately a compromise, so we'll need to be found perhaps this is indeed a marker on trying to gain some support among the fishing community and in the yellow vests. you could say the ordinary workers to, to bolster his credibility there. but i
