but you know that the u. k . god, you and your old media partner doesn't appear to be giving much prominence to a key witness in the trial here in london. one of the key witnesses for the united states government admitting he was lying about all his allegations. why do you think the guardian is not interested in that report, or any of the publications that are listed in this peg as a spyware report? i haven't seen the reuters news flash, that the most famous journalists in the world. the key witness against him as admitted his line. well, it as little traction so far. i know that, you know, some of the major means remitted doing without working on stories based just from the, the, the invoice of journalists where she broke that story. so let's give it a little time. it's a complicated story, but i mean, the essence of it is we, we kind of get time, can we? because there's a heat wave here in london. i don't know what the temperatures are in bell marsh. i don't know what the covert situation is in bell much the un

so an existence in the u. k. the people on independence age, for example, look at that focus on caveat full cost. i mean i'm used to looking for costs and statistical data and i know that a full cost is not a certainty, but look at all the range of full cost. so what we're seeing is that we're going to be hundreds of thousands of people getting it every day. we get to see a significant rise in hospitalization. we all go to see a lot of people die over the course of the rest of this year. almost certainly within weeks we hope to see the country back in lot that and again because that is the only way we will. okay. well i mean, you know, you are not epidemiologist but apparently that is good for the economy. but my point is that once all those things, once these reverses happen, once johnson is found out from them most cool, absolute promise you may be, it's over locked down as finished. we've got freedom. i think we're going to see a significant change this popular actually, every government comes to the point whe

the u. k. government has already admitted in the last few days, despite evacuating around $15000.00 afghan civilians from out out of the country. they will be leaving behind the embarrassment surround, or up to 1100 africans who are on official lists of people eligible to come here because they worked with british forces for the main part. some people think the figure is much higher. there are reports in the sunday press that thousands of e mails from members of parliament and charities to the foreign office detailing cases urgent cases of people who needed to be evacuated, went on and said, well, whatever the case, the case pledging to bring in to allow 5000 afghans into the u. k. over the next year on the rich resettlement program, and it's just an ounce. what it's calling operation was welcome. there's a new minister for resettlement. but in the short term, with these hundreds of people who already arrived around the country, the government saying it's working hard to work with charities, w

but there are neighbor issues in the u. k as they're all in the u. s. and of course, many countries, i think the 1st factor is really the same as the us. i mean, the follow program that was wonderful during pandemic hits is prevented a lot of people from going back to work. and that program hasn't completely ended and the u. k. government is still helping knows that we're self employed as well. so you got the follow issue. you also have the exodus of the you work as before, the pandemic. they want to go back to their countries, particularly eastern europe and with the travel restrictions they weren't allowed to come back into the u. k. then you have the laurie drive issue. i mean this wish she was gone for 25 years. mark selden is the financial a, be a media advisor to the you president the u. n. and he said this has gone on for 25 years and it has, i can remember this from when i emigrated to the u. s. it's low wages, it's not a job, but very pleasant, and it's always been there in the u. k. so the lori drive issues never going away. the 3rd is that th

then we take you to the u. k, where the nation's ongoing recovery is being threatened by a massive labor shortage. well, the scott, we have a lot to get to today. so let's get started. the we leave the program with the late us on china's efforts to crack down on big tech and specifically on the companies listing in the us. asian has repeatedly cited security concerns, especially for the companies like the ride share app d v, which holds the data of hundreds of millions of users. reports are now saying that as early as next month, the chinese government will propose new rules that would ban companies with large amounts of sensitive consumer data from going public in the us. however, companies with less sensitive data such as those in the pharmaceutical industry, are still likely to receive chinese regulatory approval for foreign less things. so how is this likely to impact market worldwide? and what will it mean for tensions between china and the us? joining us now to discuss the latest moscow host, christy i. now

and parts of u. k. a dramatic surgeon covered in 1900 cases as forcing hundreds of thousands of workers to stay home in britain causing shortages of food and gasoline, and heaping stress on supply chains that were already strained by briggs that some of the biggest u. k. supermarket warned thursday that last week that they were not able to stock some products and gas station operators acknowledge that some of their pumps were running dry. right. so no, i had not heard about this until just, you know, in 5 minutes or so. and i had no idea, so the pick. so the, the cell phones, of course, are tracked, you know, in real time via satellites and other means. and everybody is therefore plugged in the grid. and if somebody is within a store that has exposed themselves to this thing that everybody in the store has to has to spend 10 days in florentine. so the app, yeah, you have to download the app from the n h s or whatever services providing this in the united kingdom and it tells you if you were close to any

a straightly, i'm the u. k. all warned people to stay away from the airport because of what they called an imminent threat from an eyesore of shoes in the country. thousands though have still been gathering outside the airport for days in hopes of fleeing the country after the taliban took over. well, we have multiple correspondence covering this for charlie. what you've been hearing that is in london. alan fisher is monitoring reactions from the pentagon can be how kids is outside the white house. 4th, but 1st let's speak to rob mcbride. he's in the ask on capital a couple, rob, obviously a very fast moving story. we're hearing reports of deaths and injuries. what do we know now? that's right, well this happened just under 2 hours ago. now that is that one of the gates a day, one of the gates at the airport it's i, b gated, one of the gates where people who eligible for evacuation flights have been taken through. but it's also one of the gates which has been thronged by many more people, hundreds of thousands o

the u. k says it will accept up to 20000 afghan refugees in the coming years. hearing cobble itself, that continues to be calm on the streets, but there is a certain level of tension that you sense. but there is also you see signed on the street to more stores opening more restaurants or more people out on the street also more taliban. it has to be said in the last couple of days or so we've seen far more taliban fighters come again on the pickup trucks, on motor bikes, all flying the flags, toting weapons, et cetera. coming onto the streets. i but remain fairly tense. but com for the taliban co founder and political chief has returned to afghanistan. of the ronnie bought a dog right to a crowd of supporters in kandahar the birthplace of the tyler bon bonded. led the groups negotiators in talks with the u. s. and afghan government. he was freed from the prison in pakistan at the request of the u. s. 3 years ago in haiti, heavy rains brought on by a tropical storm of complicated search and resc

here in the u. k as well. whatever the case, the u. k is saying that it's done the best in the circumstances. those were the words of nick carter. they've got almost 15000 people out since mid august. it has been chaotic. it has been extremely upsetting and distressing for those people who made it through let alone the thousands of people who have been trying to get into cobble airport and have failed. now the government is stressing that this is not the end of its efforts. there's a lot of, it's been sent to members of parliament by the defense secretary, the foreign secretary and the home secretary. and the last for hours, insisting that they will continue to use every leave that they have to try to get people out of afghanistan who pay for their lives. know to be those who worked with british forces or with british non governmental organizations. but they haven't said exactly what they can do right now and nothing but what's been the reaction in the u. k. it's what's been unfolding, and that's going to stop when they come, there has

i mean, the u. k. is one of their closest allies, was, was, i think, actually one of the things that, let's talk to said, and this is all paid over the weekend. she had said, you know, the whole globe is, is moving towards that asian area. indo asian area. i mean, india obviously some very, very well, i can honestly. i think one of the reasons that biden has his irish roots and ancestral roots, he was obviously if the above or ministration that said that he was against it and said that the u. k. would go to the back of the line if the u. k. lead in terms of trade agreements. so i think this is just probably a cultural boss in defense of biden's administration. they have had a lot on the plate with covered and many other things in the u. s. they're pretty busy. but nevertheless that you're right, it's a special, a special relationship and it's a shame. they haven't moved faster, the seal the deal only because i think it's going to end up being not advantageous for the u. s. in the long run that it could

and in the old days before breaks it because the u. k. was attached to the e u. they could do it. other countries do, which is to take all their debts and dump it into the giant shadow banking system that covers the world's largest trading blog. and you could kind of buy some time there because e c, b is printing and buying and monetizing debt by the trillion. so christine, the guard is literally just buying, trying to trying of garbage debt. but now post bracket, they don't have that way to wash the debts into the greater e u laundromat. and so that is going to for the 1st time post break that those debts are going to start to cause a lot of pain. yeah. and ok. the 1st headline we're talking about supply shortages of actual like life necessities that are coming down the road. here we're talking about decades to resolve this debt. should everything just go back to normal right now like this is like a best case scenario. and the, on the other hand, the social media tight tightens like we're, nobody's even allowed to discuss. we're just allowed to just sit here and watch dose stylee

the u. k. their new covey to travel rules have been slammed by french officials as discriminatory and in comprehensible. that's after london announced fully vaccinated travelers from the you and us will no longer have to coordinate on arrival in england. except that is for those coming from france or to show davinsky has more on the contention divide. they could almost pay the ease for cross syrup when grace was and we were helping reunited people living in the united states and european countries with their family and friends in the u. k. from 2nd august at 4 am. people from these countries will be able to come to england from an ember country without having to quarantine if they're fully vax. i and others cried out until the roll that inconvenience back to that wrong to the european country not to be included to angry citizens. bit ridiculous. francis excluded anyone traveling back from through france this weekend will up the current thing. while most of the you in us will not have to for mon

the u. k. says it's still hopes to get thousands more people out of afghanistan in the next few days, but it's also made clear that the taliban will effectively get what better. one is called a vote and any extension. and already on monday, the u. k. press is reporting a telephone spokesperson is saying, if the us or the u. k. were to seek additional time to continue evacuations. the answer is no, or there would be consequences. so it doesn't look hopeful. and new demon terms of public opinion. back in the united kingdom, where does that lie? right? because certainly the u. k. they've committed quite heavily to have gone the stuff over the past 20 years or so over 450 service personnel from the united kingdom have lost their lives there. where does public opinion stands and all of this? i g, the british people feel the government's handling this well, to be honest, i haven't seen opinion polling as we have seen out of the us, where the signs are the. so the majority of respondents think the bad

well, something the u. k. officials have said as well, do you think nathan pulls his western forces? couldn't we to prove to the country despite the clear will on the clear lack of will rather of the public to see that happening. i think it was very hard to betray nato countries to put themselves back in afghanistan, given the total failure of the past mission. they would have to be some very, very, very strong reason to do so. and simply the before the government, i don't think is strong enough for robinson athena by steel. that's all. thanks so much for joining us in the program. good savvy with us now, british forces are also withdrawing, but the country's defense secretary's already gravely warning. but i've got to start on the brink of collapse calling the us decision, a mistake. and wall that says kind of a militant, clearly have momentum across the country and i've got to thought is heading towards civil war predicting to the bottles. god nation will again become a breeding ground for al qaeda. reporti

the u. k. prime minister barak johnson says that britain should be proud of what's been done there over the last 20 years. i must say, i don't believe it was in vain, because i do think when you look back at what has happened over the last 20 years, there was a massive effort to deal with a particular problem that everybody will remember after 911. and that was successful. now not only will a poverty of course increase on political these stabilization, but what's a key worry is terrorism could also still be on the rise. and that's why the u. k. the funded secretary is now saying that pulling out of the region is a huge mistake. now we're in this position where we have plenty to manage across the country. the united states are leaving, that was announced yesterday. we are leaving alongside them. and that leaves a, as you say, a very, very big problem on the ground developing with the taliban failed states around the world lead to instability lead to a security threat to off on our interest. we

even ministers in the u. k. a still all giving over the reasons that fraud is being single that but for the moment, the rules all the rules and it means i'm not the look for up to 10 days. the reason why from should, should be the only country in continental europe, to be, to have this exception, especially if you look at the incidence of coven cases in spain, which is going up sharply. the object to this that, that the french should be ostracized and discriminated against compared to the neighborhood. one of many, many, many of a post bricks that negotiations. and i think it's because britain felt, but france was incredibly hard line in negotiating progress. it. 2 wanted to be as difficult as possible, and the president michael has used all of the arguments to show how being outside europe is about things. so the british resentment lead out a france has not been playing tic, felt that 6 people have died and hundreds have fled their homes as wildfires. re john in southern turkey, they are spreading so rapidly in

and the russian correspondent in the u. k. were published statements on a regular basis or for in the british side to stop prosecute in russia, journalists. so here's the thing, the so called tenants of reciprocity has long been a cornerstone of russian diplomacy. in fact, for the past several years, in plain terms, it means that if any country in the world takes hostile steps against russia, something that russia doesn't feel is just and doesn't feel it's right than russia and moscow reserve the right to respond accordingly to basically mirror the actions and do something very, very similar. so this is what the russian foreign ministry is saying happening with . well, sarah range forward. according to the russian foreign ministry, several russian journalists back in 2019, failed to get work visas in the u. k. but one of them, for example, didn't, i didn't have the visa renewed and another one simply didn't get one at all. and so for the past several years since 2019 the russian foreign ministry, russian diplomats have been po

there was move forward and i did inform the u. k. about before but after the accident that i was too late for it is a bit rate. i don't want them in a very good way. i have been awarded. my conference is the 1st they do in the clear, you know, we will, we will not lose people papers not 100 over but the 2nd person house, if you start going to find my house and they will go to me. all i can do the right to survive on the bill. bill any more on all my night? we are cars. we're gonna burn to know if they help us believe that it will kill the most. that's why they look. even they're not using talking with us. army one is ready to help us one night to give up. and then the other thing because i have the meals last week. so sub cobble airports highlighted once again the, the severe danger posed by islamic state despite the loss of the so called color for 4 years ago. next r t wouldn't to me to russian terror suspects who claims he was tricked into fighting for i still in syria by the british secret service. in an interview with a correspon

that's of the u. k. broadcast to denounce the decision to expel, sorry foot who's been in the shop for 7 years. ortiz egos done shares lights on the control. essentially, the russian foreign ministry has refused to renew the work reason. she will apparently have to leave the country by the end of this month already. but according to the spokeswoman of the russian foreign ministry marie as a honda, they took this step in response to the actions of the you case for an office, have a listen. the anglo saxon media group dismissed multiple warnings by the russian foreign ministry, that relevant measures would be taken in response to london fees that put downs target. and the russian correspondent in the u. k. were published statements on a regular basis or for in the british side to stop prosecute in russia, journalists. so here's the thing, the so called tenants of reciprocity has long been a cornerstone of russian diplomacy. in fact, for the past several years, in plain terms, it means that if any country

that is the latest from the u. k. is defense secretary brand wallace, as he tries to prevent an all out civil war in afghanistan as the u. k. begins to retreat troops out of the country now, ever since us taliban p still. what we've seen is nature allows have all begun to retrieve what flashes this power political vacuum in the region, seeing the tale from totally taking control and tipping that balance of power. now not only will a poverty of course increase on political destabilization, but what's a key worry is terrorism could also still be on the rise, and that's why the u. k. the funded secretary is now saying that pulling out of the region is a huge mistake. now we were in this position where we talked about how clearly to manage across the country. united states are leaving that with an honest yesterday we are leaving alongside them. and that leaves a, as you say, a very, very big problem on the ground. developing with the taliban failed states around the world need to instability lead to a security threat to o

and the u. k. have anything about the deepest and strongest relationships with oral half left a bitter taste in the mouth, and joe biden has been harshly criticized. the u. s. president says, staying longer in kabul would raise the risk of an attack by islamic state and strain. a tenuous working relationship with the taliban, but a former u. k commander says the terrorist threat now coming from afghanistan is worse than before. 911 and biden should face and military court. i don't believe prison button should be impeached. he's the commander in chief of the us armed forces. he's just essentially surrendered to the taliban. he shouldn't be in paste. he should be court martialed for betraying the united states of america and the united states armed forces are barton, both are being condemned by m. p. as in parliament, some calling his criticism of the afghan army, shameful, and pizza, by a cell which he served in afghanistan, says the special relationship is not what it was and why britain didn't soun

there'll be questions about the u . k. government's response and preparedness for what happened. forrest johnson and his foreign secretary dominic rob. we're both on holiday. when all of these events began to evolve and unfold at the beginning of the weekend, questions about the failure of western intelligence to predict the swift whole of i've gone down to the taliban and questions about what more might have been done to build a sort of coalition of the, willing to stand in afghanistan off to the u. s. left. in the end. of course, if you're looking for answers, you'll probably be disappointed as has been the case in capitals elsewhere. there really aren't very many answers. the motion of this debate, remember, is simply this that this house has considered the situation in afghanistan because in reality, what more can this house, this country really do? jonah and speaking of contentious debate, the plan to reset where i can reckon geez, in the u. k. a big theme of that because a lot of people saying those plans simply don

in a modest hanger on the scruffy edge of a regional u. k. airport lies a new chapter in space. exploration. this is virgin orbit launch, a one, a rocket deployed from a plane that will take satellites to space and space for cornwall. the new key airport expects this to happen for the 1st time. next june. getting here hasn't been easy. it's been a long journey. lots of up and down, we've had funding issues. we had breakfast, we've had changes and administration. we've had a panoramic, we've had this airport almost having to be shut because of the pandemic. we've had a lot of challenges, but we've overcome all of them to get to the point where we're so close to launch. for the 1st of these virgin orbit will use space for cornwall as little more than a runway to take off from that construction is under way to build a facility for loading the satellites. next will be a hanger for the specialized plane. even when this is all finished, so we're actually be that much more to see here. certainly nothing to rival the kennedy space center in florida,
