good morning, sally. the mercosur and - be aligned? good morning, sally. mercosur and eui sally. the mercosur and eu talks have been going on for a couple of decades, but in 2019, the south american block that comprises argentina brazil, uruguay and paraguay �*s founding members and the european union reached an agreement, it has now been four years under legal review and it has to be approved by all 31 countries involved. the agreement looks closer than ever, for brazil it is crucial because the eu as a unit as its second largest trading partner after china and just ahead of united states copy there is still a lot of detail to be discussed around climate change, and around the agricultural sector as well, with another partner, argentina having concerns about removing tariffs impacting the automotive industry and imports in that area. we are getting closer, i am just doubtful it will get past as president lula da silva, wants to do quickly and simply not onlyjust because of the political situation in brazil and argentina it into elections and either of the

sally: absolutely. the content of today's decision goes against history, facts, and their own president. we know the benefits of diversity are well documented in addressing restoring segregation and the educational benefits documented by robust research. i should americans have consistently benefited from affirmative action. not a single student testified to being harmed by race conscious policies. in fact, i was one of the eight student alumni that testified to its importance. there's so much work left to do to address real barriers, but that was not seen in any of the decision that came out today. maria: i agree, it is disappointing but not surprising. i think that you have seen a trend not just with these two cases but the two cases that preceded it. it has been intent on overturning affirmative action and one of the things to remember that despite the ruling, the need for race conscious policies do not go away. what we are losing is a critical tool that has allowed us to integrate these secondary in

good morning, sally. the economic. morning, sally.rnment spending is surely one of the many coming two days, if you look at the invitation letter that charles michel sent to his colleagues a couple of days ago, these economic issues, they only take up economic issues, they only take up a small paragraph really. i think that is because many of them are follow—ups on longer term policy such as the industrial policy in the european union that needs a response to the biden politics that you mentioned before. what is really important is that in the background we have this issue of unprecedented levels of government debt. at the same time as inflation, particularly core inflation is still very high and the ecb policymakers they gathered earlier this week in portugal, they have hinted at interest rates remaining high for longer, which is of course bad news for the affordability of government... crosstalk. can ijustjump in there. i'm not sure if you heard gita gopinath the day before the central bankers met where she highlighted european econ

this newjust coming in — what more can you tell us, sally? what what more can you tell us, sally?m th authorities what we know from the local authorities is that the fire was caused by an electric fault and the footage we saw on social media, the fire was huge. it is a really big one. so the fact that all the british tourists as well as the egyptian crew have been rescued and are in good condition according to statements coming from local authorities, this is really good news and we understand that search operations are still under way looking for the three british tourists who are still missing and also prosecutors, they have launched an investigation to find out exactly what happened. this incident brings a lot of bad news for the tourism industry, which is already a lifeline to the egyptian economy, is in bad shape, so trying to find out what exactly happened is a must for this industry because the last thing authorities would need is tourists being discouraged from heading to the famous tourist destination, one of the country's top diving spots. and british tourist, a lot of t

well, sally, of course. _ trouble? well, sally, of course, yesterday - trouble?ere talking about the health of china's economy and it is a sensitive subject because for long time, the chinese public was somewhat rewarded, if you like, with a robust economy growth, in exchange for giving up growth, in exchange for giving up some of their freedom like the right to protest. so slowing economic growth is very tricky subject to discuss and one of china's most prominent economy commentators who had nearly five million followers which is the twitter like platform in china. his name is wu shou, bow and he was blocked on monday alongside with two others and he has since deleted his recent posts and said he had spread harmful information that undermined government policy including manipulating unemployment rates. now, the unemployment rates. now, the unemployment rates. now, the unemployment rate especially among the country's youth is a particularly sensitive topic because according to the latest data, 1—in—5 now doesn't have a job. now censoring economy commentators is n

sally fairfax a lot of historians think george washington was in love with sally fairfax his whole life. yeah, and obsessed with her. and of course she was the wife of his good friend. talk a little bit about this story. oh, yes. thank you for give me this punchline. so, yeah, okay. once again, by by all means, george washington got to be the tallest and most athletic, the strongest the you know, the most brutal or whatever. and so in the same way, he must be the most seductive among the american men. and there are so many legends. you know, when he shows up at ball's whim and start drooling and swooning because he's so irresistible, once again, we are projecting back onto to the 18th century canvas our priorities and our ideas about what a seductive man should be. in fact, before the mid-19th century, that kind of seduction wasn't really a big thing. it was quite the opposite. it was the sign of a moral decay. so seduction meant in the 18th century, it meant, you know, to be to be drawn astray, to be corrupted, to be deceived. so it was this sex and not something good. and for instance

it was through conversations with dame sally davies and others that i became more and more interesteds. so i thought we were putting in place good steps, and it was important to say to other countries, we all need to do this. with ebola specifically, there was this sense that the who was quite slow to announce that it was quite slow to announce that it was happening, and also quite slow to ask for help, and the help that was given to sierra leone, to guinea and to liberia was very much ad hoc. i think i put it in my statement. it was at a nato summit, i was sitting next to president obama and he said, the world as being too slow on this. we will help with liberia, can you help with sierra leone, can the french help with guinea quest market was quite an odd micro ad hoc response and we spent half £1 billion sending troops and nurses and all the rest of it and i think they did a magnificentjob. but it was ad hoc. it made me think that we needed, again, the international architecture was lacking and we needed to put it in place and that's what the press release and announcement was about

sally, the forefront of all of this. yourthoughts?with what the prime minister has been saying for a while now about focusing on masss education which feeds into this, supporting the ongoing knowledge—based economy that we already see as being a big driver in the uk. while it is really exciting to see the developments in al, one of the challenges from an economic perspective is that it is unlikely to be a big employer. so the country faces bigger challenges about how to grow jobs in the uk across the economy. so although the rise of ai is very exciting and matches that narrative that the prime minister has had, there is much more work to be done. let's talk about the other agenda. rishi sunak meeting with president biden later today in the white house and we are sorta saying, well, a direct trade arrangement with the us is on the back burner, it is not the most important issue and yet isn't it? isn't that really important that we get a good trade deal with the us? are we supposed to be brokering these fantastic trade deals now that we

hello, i'm sally bundock.fter a boat capsized off the coast of greece last week, in which hundreds are feared to have died, the bbc has obtained evidence casting doubt on the greek coastguard's account of the tragedy. analysis of the movement of other ships in the area suggests the boat was not moving for at least seven hours before it capsized. our europe correspondent nick beake has this report. the greek authorities have faced heavy criticism over their response to this disaster. their argument has always been that the boat was moving in a steady direction towards italy, that it wasn't in danger, and so the people on board did not need to be rescued. now, we've been looking at shipping data, looking at the boats that were in this part of the mediterranean sea on the day of the tragedy. we also looked at court records, logbooks, photographs and video. we've built up a picture which seriously challenges the official greek version of events. last tuesday morning, from the air, authorities spot the migrant boat
