not made in washington that enabled that type of environment, to let rioters run loose and looting soho and other areas in the east village, all over new york, up and down fifth avenue and madison avenue. this was allowed by your city

little bit as much so that my kids and i took an office of the we work in and had some streets in soho which is actually a very nice thing business syria used and i'm the only person working in a freak show we were and that to me sounds bigger longboats you know it's great having a perspective because i was just thinking about to talk bill who was french and he came to america any he wrote about the american character and it was right insightful because he was from outside the us year of course our came to the us from south africa and you're in new york city this is your 1st summer in new york city and you're so you're seeing really from the perspective of fresh eyes you because you know you're not a native new yorker so tell us more what you what your impression of the so far of new york you know you have that access to the hamptons of course from this shishi a crowd as i was out there and is that still ongoing or is that been interrupted and again you know as i am asking you to put your kind of your journalist had on tell give us an idea what's what's it like in new york because when

well we can now speak to rory who's back in soho for us or it didn't play him as a really party vibe over there last night especially in those bars and pubs did people manage to socially distance after a few pints. i think that's the very simple answer to that question from what i could see being out in soho yesterday. the mix of young people being out after several months of being pretty much locked indoors alcohol into the mix a sense of. jubilation that party atmosphere no there was very little social distancing going on very few mosques being warned who were going to have to really see what happens next is obviously a big worry the. kind of party atmosphere might lead to fresh outbreaks of covert 19 in the u.k. in in england as other parts of the u.k. are still kind of working out their own exit from from lock down the government is saying that this went pretty well that by and large people behave responsibly that's not a view that's been shared by people in the police force the head of the police federation said that look you know clearly drunk people either cannot or will not s

boost for everybody in the town that's out craving a night out indeed it should be a recession is soho in central london thank you very much. well police in the inner city of durham have posted a video online warning revelers to drink responsibly in bars rather than spending a night behind the well there are fears that drinkers may overindulge during the weekend as hundreds in boston being closed the more than 3 months during a police force have encouraged drinkers to enjoy themselves what happens today warning to behave responsibly businesses will have to adhere to social distancing guidelines to staff will also be expected to wear face masks well the industry has taken a big hits during the pandemic with hopes this weekend can help boost the economy. their health bosses have also warned the english public to drink sensibly over the weekend due to fears that hospitals can become overburdened medics have claimed that accident and emergency can now only deal with half the number of patients due to the pandemic the president of the college of emergency medicine said the department is bra

but when you send that sort of message, you end up with the scenes we saw in soho oi’ the scenes we sawell, it's not for me to make accusations. that is what you are suggesting. no, you asked me what we had done differently. i think their messaging has led to some unfortunate outcomes. i would be sorry to see those outcomes in wales. what we will see here next year is an election, a chance for people to show whether their trust has been won or lost. hywel griffith, bbc news, abergavenny. it is 17 years since the darfur conflict began in western sudan — one that led to hundreds of thousands of deaths and charges of genocide against sudan's former president. the worst of the violence was more than a decade ago, but the uk has granted asylum to some of those fleeing continuing instability there. fergal keane, who reported from darfur in 2004, has been talking to two cousins who are from there — and now find themselves on different sides of the channel. it is a story of numberless journeys, driven by the enduring legacy of genocide. journeys that bring some to refuge in britain, while other

in england celebrated the end of the lockdown fairly responsibly but there were some scenes here in sohorom saturday night huge crowds here. speaking of the bars and restaurants, those were quite empty. lots of new measures are in place to reopen. covid-19 safety measures, lots of social distancing, limited seating. on the streets it was rammed and the atmosphere was more like a festival or a street party. there was lots of live music, queues was asked to close down early by police. it was concerning as here in london the transmission rate for the virus does appear to be on the increase, according to the latest figures, and i think the issue here speaks to a problem not just for the uk but for governments really across the world. how to kick-start economies. how to ease lockdown and get spending, but without lifting the lid on the virus. some really concerning pictures. as i said, the majority of england did see a successful easing of lockdown, helped by some miserable weather. not many people wanted to sit outside the pubs during the daytime. hopefully the scenes we saw here in soho of

soho in central london on saturday night. bars went off mostly trouble—free. but one high—profile police officer said that drunk people can't or won't practice social distancing and that may become a problem as more venues reopen. yeah, let's go! in wales, the first minister, mark drakeford, joined in the celebrations for the 72nd birthday of the nhs on sunday evening. he's urged visitors to the country to behave safely and respectfully as some welsh restrictions come to an end today. the bar on people travelling more than 5 miles has been lifted, and outdoor attractions can also reopen. the tourist sector may welcome more guests from july 11 if conditions are right. now, though, bars and remain closed. hi, how are you. good to see you. in scotland, though, beer gardens and pavement cafes will welcome back customers from today, although they won't be able to go inside until at leastjuly 15. at a rooftop bar in edinburgh, first minister nicola sturgeon saw for herself how venues will try to keep customers and staff safe. as in

communities white communities and yet they're relatively well heeled they all crowd in soho in the west end of london can afford to buy drinks on a day in a band that no police at all but go that's that that's certainly a really really powerful example of the way in which perceptions of policing illegitimacy can start to develop that where we get large gatherings of predominantly white people on a sunny day in a beach in bournemouth but we get gatherings of people from from black and working class communities we see very very different and contrasting pools of policing much more like say fair in regard to the former and much more oppressive in regard to the latter but the other thing that needs to be borne in mind here are shifting power relations but one of the things about crowds is that they are places in which normally disempowered people can become powerful to turn the relations of power and reverse them in relation to the police on an everyday basis there disempowered in a subject going to as we see in the stop and search episode with the with the car but when knows people are gat

well, it has gone midnight here in soho, and though much of central london is quieter than usual, theare still out in force here, as you can see. many of the bars and cafes are still open, which is great news for the entertainment industry, but there is not much evidence of social distancing going on. police officers were out in force across england. one, john apter, the national chair of the police federation in england and wales, took to twitter at the end of his shift in southampton, saying... earlier in the day there was relief of a nonalcoholic kind. instead of wrestling with clippers and scissors ourselves, the experts are now back in charge of our locks, from behind a visor. for those wanting something a bit more hair—raising... ..theme parks have also opened their gates, but with more than the usual precautions. it's a good place to come along. 30% capacity, loads of space, lines, toilets are all clean. so it's fine, it is all good. and it is now possible to head back to the big screen. but not to theatres, where industry bodies have warned of massive closures unless they rece

workers fear the changes could lead to a sharp rise in corona virus infections were challenges in soho in central london he says the government knows the reopening comes with risk. well in any normal world this would be exactly the kind of scene the v. saying at this sort of time of the evening on a saturday night in central london people around people drinking on the streets getting bit drunk perhaps fever eating in restaurants today people have been getting their head cuts in head dresses they've been going to cinemas hotels are open but this sort of scene has been completely absent for from british life for 3 and a half months or so the government knows that this is a big risk it's a big it spare moment and perhaps it could go wrong and we have been hearing key figures boris johnson saying that people should be acting responsibly for swifty the chief medical officer saying that people should be very disciplined when it comes to social distancing as they go out and enjoy themselves well if you can see behind me that if there's that much discipline going on with regards to mosque wear

then inive social, and soho.t, and once we have had a couple of weeks, we will open up a tavern. after that we will open up in the city of london, which is our flagship restaurant in town. that's it. wanted toon, i just ask how the demand has been. withou already backed up bookings from customers, or have you not open those books yet? what are you seeing for customer demand with these reopening's? jason: we open back up two days ago, so we have people getting back to work to get bookings back into the system. it is looking quite good the first week. and let of people miss those restaurants and wanted to come back, so that is very encouraging. they will bounce back quite quickly, and then it is all about consumer confidence and sustainability, making sure that we as a business, as a generous hospitality sector, we have to get our points much lower than they were so that the landlords deal with the overhead. the price inflation, with brexit and that bringing inflation up. we have a lot of work to do over the next t

and outdoor spaces but the atmosphere is very different inside but as we're a challenge reports from soho in london it comes with big risks. the ancient in alienable rights of free born people of the united kingdom to go to the pub is how boris johnson described it well here they are enthusiastic and enjoying that right again after more than 3 months of lockdown plus going to the cinema getting their hair cut eating in restaurants and staying in hotels for england at least something like normal life has returned it feels 2 really nice feels really nice we're going to go on a bit travel after this i think it's great. it's rather expensive by comparison with. by buying in. super saturday is the english press is called it was desperately needed by a struggling hospitality industry but business owners had to reduce capacity and make other changes to open a safety is possible we will take hold and fortunately can we put screens up between people you know wash your hands and everyone keep away from us don't stick places till you know we were watching it was against you that's not what. we're ju

yeah kim there is something of a party atmosphere here i think in soho and i imagine there are scenes like this going on all over england so the other parts of the u.k. are having their own difference timetables for things similar measures but from today in england you can go out to the you can go to the head dresses you can go to the cinema or to a restaurant have a meal and you can stay in a hotel perhaps the most significant package of steps that's being taken in this incremental passage out of lockdown for england's this one though carries a great number of risks though it's a gamble that the government is taking they know you this they are urging as you said just now people so you behave responsibly boris johnson has said that the chief medical officer officer said that and you can see why because you know when you have a sense of liberation with a lot of alcohol thrown into the mix then there is the potential for people to get a lot closer than they have been doing over previous months and that could lead to flare ups of covert 19 a little way down the line the government is hop

here in soho, there were big crowds on the streets to mark the event.s up and down the country, they we re pubs up and down the country, they were much more modest celebrations but now some pubs are having to close their doors again just days after reopening. the lighthouse kitchen and carvery at burnham—on—sea in somerset is one of them after a mail customer tested positive. the pub posted a message on its facebook page, saying: other pubs such as the fox and hounds in baddeley west yorkshire have had to post similar facebook messages. the pub said it will be deep cleaned and opened again as soon as deep cleaned and opened again as soon as possible. the village home pub in alba/ gosport said it told its customers it didn't need to isolate unless they were contacted by official traces. it hopes to open again on saturday. this is the best thing since sliced bread. any group going to a pub in england to leave a contact number so that should make it easier to trace the customers who have been to a pub that needs to close down. andy moore, bbc news. the duc

we saw some pictures from soho, people enjoying themselves, having an old—fashioned night out.i would remind people, have a look at what is going around the world was up have a look at big cities like melbourne, have a look at leicester and remind ourselves where we have come from, where we have got to and where we could easily lurch to if we don't remain vigilant because this thing hasn't gone away. we still have a lot of circulation in the virus in the country, it is just a lot lower than where we started. icu nodding along, chris. people will be worried. what we saw this weekend was a testing of the water. about half of the pubs were opened and that will increase with you and your collea g u es that will increase with you and your colleagues i am sure are not being complacent, are you? oh definitely, the planning continues. the ambulance service is really aware of what is going on and the health service as a whole. what we do every yearin service as a whole. what we do every year in terms of christmas and new year, making shock robust plans are in place. also with sporting e

but in the usually vibrant area of soho in central london, there were few people who opened for coffee shops this morning. gallery, museums and libraries have reopened. but so far reactions are mixed. >> i think it's a really difficult choice. on the one hand, you've got people who are eager to get out. you've got the social implications and the mental health implications of lockdown. and on the other hand you've got the health situation, and the virus is still out there. it's still highly contagious. >> it's a great thing. i'll get to my haircut in about an hour. i think it's a good thing. i think people are mind.. they know now what to do. >> the four nations of the u.k., england, scotland, wales, and northern ireland are easing lockdown restrictions at different speeds. >>> restrictions in melbourne, australia, are going in the opposite direction. an outbreak is preventing thousands from leaving their homes tonight. after almost 30 covid cases were confirmed, nine public towers in the suburbs of flemington and north melbourne went into a hard lockdown. the unprecedented move involve
