facing the music a day after the u. k. coronavirus death toll overtook it cities to become the worst in europe. as british prime minister boris johnson made his return to o parliament aftfter recovering from the virus himself. the leader of the opposition suggested that the government had neglected to protecect have homes. as it focused on the wide outbreak. more than six thohousand deaths have been recorded in cat homes in england alone. he's not writing what he just said about- the state of the epidemic in calves on because he looks at the figures. in the most few days- there's been a palplpable improvement- we m mut hope. that continues and we will ensure the dogs. the government has faced criticism by opposition parties and some scientists for their response to the outbreak. with questions raised over the testing strategy protective equipment. and the timing of a lockdown. the public remains divided over the government's handling. we knewew this was comoming and the government did not say nothing about. that those. pe

the u. k. prime minister has defended his eight saying he acted reasonably with integrity and calf others let's hear from dominic cummings. in this very complex situation i try to exercise my judgment the best i could. i believe the rule circumstances i behave reasonably legally. balancing the safety of my family and the extreme situation number ten on the public interests effective government to which i could contribute. i was involved in decisions affecting millions of people i thought let's try to help as much as i could to. i can understand that some people will argue that i s should have stayed at my home in london throughout. i understand these views. i know the intense hardship and sacrifice the entire countries have to go through. however i respectfully disagree. the legal rules inevitably journal cover all circumstances including those that i found myself in. and forr all the latest on this car into a political crisis in the u. k. our correspondents in london benedict have you sent us

england governor, a bloomberg .pinion columnist he obviously was asked about negative rates in the u kther nations and whether or not they are an effective tool to combat fallout from the pandemic virus. >> i think we should look at the big picture here. i think there's been too much attempt to think of the situation in terms of conventional language like recession or depression, downturn. we should assume therefore that central banks have a responsibility to getting us out of it. i think that's a mistake. caused by the private sector being reluctant to spend. this is being caused by a government mandated shutdown of the economy. it doesn't make much sense for the government to shut down the economy with one hand and then to pretend that we need a fiscal stimulus with the other hand. we are going to have to wait until the restrictions are lifted completely and then decide what, if any, is needed. my concern would be if you look ahead, it's quite hard to see how we are going to be able to go back to anything close to normal until we have a vaccine or until there is population immunity.

i was wondering about this story in the u k i am thinking, why do i care about dominic cummings?s about leadership, isn't it? holding yourself to the same standards that you set for other people. rob: absolutely. it's about hypocrisy. there has been lots of anger and people up and down the country after they have been lockdown for two months. they think, i could not go and see my dying mother or dying father, what on earth is going on? talk about anger. there has been vast amounts of critical. go and have a look at social media. some of it is very witty, but not the kind of thing you want as a government. i think one of the dangers of this, and this applies to governments all over the world, when the government lays down its next steps, whether it's ing some restrictions in place, asking people to go back to work, you can see the danger. people say, well, why should i listen to this government. he is the second most important man in the country alongside boris johnson. he did not follow the rules, why should i? katty: and as the country starts opening up, in a way, people will st

this is not just in the u k but the fact that we do not have a unified approach across various partsre going with the google and apple approach. and others are going like the u.k. with something more centralized. what is coming out in the wash? : ultimately, it is a question of adoption. both approaches have their merits. but, they will be moot if no one uses them. increasingly, a few countries are starting with a centralized approach and then pivoting to a more decentralized one and i have a suspicion that it will happen in the ok there -- in the u.k. keeping its options open. to try to do centralized if you can do to be ready to turn to the decentralized option. matt: how is the best way to deal with this? alone, they wuhan had 9000 people hired to do for don the ground contact tracing work. is that kind of people power necessary or canned the technology usurp a lot of that? tech as with any solutions, when we think about ai replacing jobs, you need to have an automated element subsidy -- supplemented by manpower. if you are going to do contact tracing for a nation of 70 million pl

actually relatively small compared to how much attention they got what these calls for for protest in the u k. i would as suspects that we're likely to see a similar pattern in the u.k. yes there are calls being led by a group calling itself u.k. freedom movement to come out and protest against the lock down as illegal i think there are something like 8 process being shuttled one of them. later here on brighton beach another in central london in hyde park. the types of people who are likely to come out and he these schools perhaps tending more towards the kind of far right and libertarian. end of the political spectrum. by and large though i think the u.k. population has been on board with the lock down it tends to view the government's actions as being if anything too late and perhaps not going far enough in restricting people's movements but if we do see people coming out down to brighton beach today it is not likely to be that many from the protesting end of the spectrum more likely to be day trippers and people coming out stretching their legs after the government earlier this week eased

anneliese: that is absolutely right, and these figures reflect the beginning of the lockdown in the u knfortunately it is likely we will see more reductions. the u.k. government has an jobsmic package to support and incomes during this crisis. we have been trying to work with the u.k. government. some changes in the furlough scheme. i demanded the u.k. chancellor come into parliament to talk about it. it is critical now that we ensure everything is working as well as possible, and that we avoid any cliff edges. i am concerned with the furlough scheme that we could see an employer contribution, a substantial one required on august 1 for all employers. that would risk and increase in unemployment, large numbers of people coming into the jobs market at the same time. we need to avoid that affect if possible. it will be difficult for the labor market, given many of them have jobs that are put out of reach as a result of this crisis. francine: would you say the government is doing a good job ,rying to cushion the economy and is a difficult to be the opposition now? anneliese: we did call for
