now some, even if you're the u. k, will slip into a recession, high fuel and food prices as we just saw, there are 2 culprits of the slowing growth. the inflation rate rose to 9 point one percent in the u. k. in may. that's the highest rate in 40 years. of the central bank expects it to hit double digits within a few months. or i solomon feler is an economist at baron beg bank. he joined me for more. the u. k. expected to see this incredibly slow growth, a slow growth of developing countries. why is that? right? so even the numbers that you cited now may be a bit optimistic. we think that the u. k. may already be in a recession actually. so one reason why maybe starting a bit early and u. k is also the different pattern of coming out of the pandemic. so in the euro zone, you have still a little bit of a reopening momentum stamps and the impact of the russian energy crisis. now. but in the end, it will be a phenomenon that you can see or will be able to see throughout europe. as scott supplies curtailed, so it's only h

we think that the u. k. may already be in a recession, actually say one reason for that is why it's maybe starting a bit early and u. k is also the different pattern of coming out of the pandemic. so in your zone, you have still a little bit of a reopening momentum that dampens the impact of the russian energy crisis. now, but in the end, it will be a phenomenon that you can see of the be able to see throughout europe as gas supplies are curtailed. so it's only hitting a, maybe that, and then it can also move out of the current crisis. all right, now political now gap at the very top of politics in the u. k. force johnson resigning. what does that mean during such a difficult time to have a gap there at the very top of the country? so say, well maybe it's a problem that the u. k. contract, but on the other hand, you can't make any major missteps. in the current situation, there are many pitfalls for the additional a day. it should probably avoid. so if you're now in this situation where inflation is already

to continental europe operated by the u. k. they offload gas to europe in the summer months when britain doesn't have enough storage capacity for it. then in the winter time, the gas is sent back from the e. u to the u. k. when it's most needed there. but the newspaper talks about the possibility of the flow of europe simply being cut off. if a gas french hits britain, a british government spokesman, referred to emergency procedures in the extremely unlikely event of a supply emergency. national grid gas have longstanding emergency procedures in place to protect the integrity of britons gas network. all countries have such plans, and there is absolutely nothing to suggest that these emergency procedures would be needed. now. our priority is to continue working together with our e. u partners and allies, to and reliance on russian oil and gas. it's possible that post brags it u. k is faring better than it's you neighbors, a spokesman for the you case, national grid power network doesn't foresee any energy shortages. the u. k has

u. k and eastern european members want to see moscow weakened permanently, but other key block powers calling 1st swift ceasefire in ukraine and a diplomatic settlement that will allow all sides to walk away with their heads held high to some degree. it's not clear what nato chief vienne stoughton berg really wants either. on the one hand, he says that russia is this massive direct threat on the other. he continues to say that nato doesn't want the conflict to spread. if this becomes a full scale war between russia and natal, then was it suffering damage to death, destruction of the scale, which is much, much worse. and what you see in ukraine today, jewels over a corresponds a built of course, to prevent escalation beyond ukraine. and that's the reason why nate was not a part of the conflict on the ground. but that came hand in hand. with this humdinger of an announcement, we will transform the nato response force and increase the number or higher. this forces to well over 300000 so, so t

here in the u. k, the countries break for rec, we'll break, eat, come on monday. temperatures of predicted to reach 40 degrees celsius for the 1st time ever. government has declared a national emergency and health chiefs extra ambulance is on stand by their fears that hundreds of people might die. but we could say people who are particular vulnerable, young people, elderly file people, people live in mis dementia who really do suffer this. this is a like a lovely day where we can put a bit of some screen on and go out and enjoy sweet an a male outside. this is serious. that could actually alternately ending in people's death because it is so ferocious and we're just not set up for that sort of age in this country. rush military says it's destroyed, multiple rocket launch has given to ukraine by nato military chief, say this video shows the russian strike on a ukrainian storage facility and danielle squeezen. but the claims can't be independent. the verified russian forces also bomb the number of ukrai

also speaking of u. k, you've also said that the immediate priorities working together with governments to address capacity issues where they're occurring yet. you recently hit back at quote it politicians who blame you care line for the staff shortages. i mean, do you stand by these comments? yeah, of it's very disappointed to hear the transports extra say in the u. k. in effect, say that, you know, they had provided the industry with a lot of supports and that the airline should have been ready. what i pointed out was that when the government u. k, government withdrew support for everybody with no specific support for airlines. that was in september of last year. when passenger numbers in the u. k were only 36 percent. and in the 4th quarter of last year, when no support was being providers, passenger numbers in the u. k. were still down by 55 percent against where they were in 2019. and i think it's easy for these politicians to forget the reality of was going on and jumped for a headline. and i have to

so regardless of which party is in government, the u. k is staying out, so it would seem like remain as like yourself of simply lost the political argument . what i said is that the, the, the mood. ready country is, was still a very divided country, but it's not that long ago that we had over a 1000000 people out on the streets campaigning for people's vote. ready referral and the outcome of the brace integrations. and i set that contain is faded away. and as you say, the labor opposition is this just this last week and said that there is no intention to revisit the idea of the customs union single market. now i get the politics of i do understand the policies that but i think the economics of that very, very difficult. the fact is, all of these problems that we're facing. they can't just be wished away. they have to be resolved at the least. that requires is actually to start to think about how do we redevelop really serious trading arrangements, europe and partners. and in the critical level, i guess the opportunity was johnson going, i

so talking more about the u tre. ties between the u. k. in the you have certainly afraid since breaks it and the up, the something is for you as a remain nor is that even the opposition in the u. k. doesn't want to campaign to re enter neither the, you know, even the single mock and all the customs union. so regardless of which party is in government, the u. k is staying out. so it would seem like remain as like yourself have simply lost the political argument. what i said is that the, the, the moody. ready country is we're still a very divided country, but it's not that long ago that we had over a 1000000 people out on the streets campaigning for people's vote. ready referencing the outcome of the breaks integrations and i set back and pain is faded away. and as you say, the labor opposition is this just this last week and said that there is no intention to revisit the idea of the customs union single market. now i get the politics of i do understand the policies that but i think the economics at that very, very difficult. the fact is, al

the u. k. lead to way in inaugurating the ramstein conferences, which are 4 countries together to supply a weapon. return to ukraine. and, and the americans and i very much of the lead on that and are certainly providing the, the bulk of, of what's going in. and we'll be doing more in august as the copenhagen corporate structural in another military donor conference. there, there is a community the supply is continue to to go in the ukrainians are steadily getting the kind of kid that they, they need it again to repel were expelled the russians from where, where they are. but it's also very important that they are trained to use the, the m l r s a lot more to roach a rocket systems effectively, so that it's very expensive. weaponry is, is put videos. now you fix your florence actually forget me, has explained that victory ukraine means taking back every single square inch of crane sol including crimea. what's your view of victory? we can't give you credit in the koreans. that's for them to dec

ready well, because because of what is that was veteran u. k political political advisor, allister campbell speaking to me earlier. and finally we look to the u. s. now where new job figures have significantly outperformed expectations. the world's largest economy managed to add $372000.00 jobs last month. that's well above economists. forecasts and the unemployment rate remained at 3.6 percent that only slightly above the lea, a record low before the pandemic. and who better to break this down forest against caught in new york yet another week. another jobs report. how does this one stand out from the rest? well, a daniel at the fed chairman jerome paul just recently said that the labor market in the u. s. is unstained, ably high. well, what does that mean? so now we have more than a $100000.00 jobs, so more than expected. so obviously the labor market remains a pretty hot. there was a slight negative. if you look at the participation rate that a fell and probably also the pandemic is still a factor by a lot of people do not return to the labo

and the u. k. is breast to hit temperatures of 40 degrees celsius in some places for the 1st time ever. wales has already recorded its highest temperature. zombies ravaged joins as live now from some petronela, knobby just outside more spins worst affected areas. the mora, those are tell us what's happening, where you are saying. well, we're in one of the regions. i think the region that is the worst hed by the seasons wildfires, there are dozens of wild fires burning across the country. most of them are out of control. and this is what that looks like. what it means is that there is no perimeter to the fire and it keeps moving and traveling, and wherever it can find fuel to continue to burn. we're here in a village, just 10 kilometers outside of the moral one of the worst hit parts of the country. and there are no civil services here. there is no government help here. what these people are doing. these are farmers using their farming equipment to try to create fire lines to stop the fire from eati

the u. k is recorded, 9 of its hotter stays, and almost all of those have happened since 20 o 3, rory. let's come back to you. i want to find out from you what the government is advising people to do about how it's able to cope with this. it wave what the main advice is, don't do anything as silly as what i'm doing. don't stand out in the blazing sunshine. seek shade be inside if, if you can stay hydrated, put sunscreen on. if you're going out, don't go on the rail network. i'm afraid of done that as well today, so i'm not scoring very highly in the checklist of things that the government is telling you not to do. but sir, this brought this country is not well set up for, for these kind of temperatures. if you look around the buildings, you can't see any behind me at the moment, but you, what you don't see are, are all those clusters of, of air conditioning units on the side of houses and buildings that you do see in many hot countries. because there just isn't usually the need for them. and i

and over to the u. k. now where the tory leadership race is heating up with the 6 weeks still to go, the 2 remaining condensers. a contenders are campaigning hard to convince people they should be the next p. m. least trust and wishes to not have be making plenty of campaign promises. but many of the pledges seems to be about foreign policy rather than the looming economic crisis at home is our seat. rachel blevins. their race to determine who will succeed boris johnson as the next prime minister of the u. k. is on and it's down to the final 2 contenders, list trust and regime. soon as, while there are a host of domestic issues to consider, trust is reportedly planning to emphasize her stance as a hawk. well, painting her opponent as a dove, who is too soft on china and russia, currently serving as a foreign secretary trust is trying to establish herself as the next margaret thatcher. she has been at the forefront of u. k. communications on russia this year, but it has only served to escalate tension betwe

the u. k. ireland and belgium are among several nations reporting, unusually hot days. odyssey correspondence reporting from different hot spots on the continent. andrew simmons is in london, and natasha bothers in paris. first, this report by zane bush ave in spain, just outside one of the worst affected areas. zamora ah, battling to control the inferred across spain. it's a race against time to contain wild fires that have been raging out of control from the south of the country to the north where blazes have scorched 4600 hector's, of land over the past few days. from doing trained journeys also thwarted by the worst wildfires for a decade in a visit to one of the worst affected areas, spain's prime minister pedro sanchez, made clear what he thought was to blame. you did have it that lot of, i want to say the evidently climate change kills on it, kills people, kills the ecosystem, the bio diversity. and it also destroy the most precious goods of ah, society, which is affected by these wildf

under simmons reports from london, extreme heat by u. k. standards that is brought every aspect of travel into question. luton airport, north of london, diverted flights engineers called in because of a runway surface defect, trains all over the country, going slow or getting cancelled. the threats of buckled rails brought networks to the brink of failure, as temperatures sword make shift foil used on old steel bridges. in attempt to deflect the heat. an road surfaces beginning to melt more alarming than this voluntary ambulance stove, trying to back up an already fully stretched national health service, dealing with heat related emergency and in london, if you get out of the sun and go on the ground, it's even worse for why is it that britain come cope with hate waves? so much of it to do with it's outdated and another good infrastructure does come with extreme temperatures. payroll monday with some pass just can't see what the fuss is about. 3536 degrees. people pay money to go to places with that and those places don't ever conditioning

she has been at the forefront of u. k. communications on russia this year, but it has only served to escalate tension between the 2 peach and must lose in ukraine. helping ukraine defend itself, all defensive weapons from the united kingdom, and now being used to stop russian tracks. but we need to do more. let's be clear. if peach in succeeds, there will be unfold further misery across europe and terrible consequences across the globe. we would never feel safe again. so we must be prepared for the long whole. we've got to double down on our support for ukraine, in addition to promoting unprecedented sanctions and a ban on all investment in russia. trust that earlier this month, but she will support giving me sees and frozen russian assets in the u. k. to ukraine as a new form of humanitarian aid. hey, maybe the landscape can use a yacht. i am supportive of the concept. we're looking at it very closely. the canadians have, in fact, just passed legislation. this is an issue that we are working on jointly with the home offi

when the u. k. foreign secretary of the time robin cook met with us general colin powell during that meeting, powell reference the day when the u. s. military shot down in iranian passenger plane, killing all 290 people on board. he was regan's national security advisor at the time. and this is how he said the u. k. responded powell started the lunch by speaking warmly of the united states special relationship with britain. he recalled that when the iranian air bus had been shot down over the gulf, charles powell then u. k. national security adviser had rung immediately from downing street to ask what the americans wanted, the british government to say colin powell commended without apparent irony that america could count on no other government to behave like that. that tragic day was july 3rd 1988 the u. s was providing support for saddam hussein or rocks. invasion of a wrong if you can believe it. when the u. s. military shot down iran air flight 655 . the initial story was that a u. s. navy ship

the u. k. recorded its highest ever temperature on tuesday, getting above 40 degrees celsius for the 1st time. at least 30 for places of exceeded the previous national record. london, mere city con, has asked people not to have barbecues, because there's been a surgeon fires across the british capital. it is $1700.00 firefighters are battling to contain 2 massive blazes in the south west of france. the thought he say a man's been arrested in suspicion of arson. fall as far as of also broken out in italy and near the greek capital athens. more than $35.00 continued to burn in spain, which is nearly 10 days into its heat wave. almost the entire country is on high alert for wildfires despite a slight drop in temperatures. fall research reports from the u. k. we're health warnings are in place, but not everyone can escape the heat. flames and gulf homes near london. shortly after the u. kay's reco temperature was smashed. the london fibre gate declared a major incident with blazes breaking out acr

and lawyers in the u. k. a requesting access to the bullets and fire on that killed veteran al jazeera journalist, sharina blackly. the form representing her family is asked to interview the israeli army, so just present at the shooting. so those are the headlines now going to bring you much more on all of our stories in the news out that's coming up at $2100.00 g m t r 's era investigations starts now focusing on persons modern slave trade. ah, outages here is investigative unit reveals the true scale of modern slavery in suburban britain. behind the high street, there's a hidden work force under the control of slave masters. now they're chattering, they've brought her to gary, said bob, then they tied me to the bed and the guys did their joette dish. madame, did rob ha, most of the initial victims of the modern slave trade, where women exploited for sex. how much would we have to pay you for the girls? by $1.00 of each go i. now the market for slave labor spends a wide range of money making activities from

but he is also said he sees the u. k. is funding for the nato alliance, continuing to grow in the future. first of all, my view on nato target as a flaw and not a ceiling. so that's something that i can absolutely commit to. and also the most important thing to know is all defense spending is already full cost to grow, to around to an office and over time as a result of the investments that we're making. so it appears that once again, the u. k is in a position where it's new prime minister will tobe nato line, and follow the advice of johnson who used his parting speech to tell his country to stay close to be americans and stick up for the ukrainians. the question now becomes will be the candidate who appears ready to go along with, with the alliance want, or the one who wants to shape the future nato as an even more hawkish lions. aiming to expand the current tensions no matter the cost. it's an old trick the politicians have been doing since, since the time of the turn, as you know, destruction the media away from probl

the u. k. government is put in place an unprecedented read extreme health warning if the temperatures get over $38.00 degrees that will break records . these islands not use to temperatures into the high thirty's and above. so there are measures being taken being put in place. they are expecting lots of ambulance cool out today. some schools closing lee or even not opening its whole the transport system, much of the rail network is going to be having go slow speed limits on it. there is one big part of one of the main lines from london to the northern city of leads and york, which is not gonna be running a tall tomorrow. so basically this country is kind of buckling down and making sure that it can get through this period of hot weather unscathed because of course this source, a temperature in a, in a warming world is going to get more and more common. when we say that for the time being because i want to give you a bit more context about what all this all means. so let's take a look at exactl

really reeves the u. k. about what? $1112.00 days later. so the fact that we saw this coming is a good thing. hopefully folks took it seriously. the red warning was issued 3 or 4 days in advance by the u. k. met office. though the predictions not really an issue, it's more about how we jump from the prediction to actual implementation of emergency management procedures in really the mitigation. we need to protect folks from episode, likeness, murphy, thank you so much. is always that was meter all just matthew, cut pushy in washington dc. thank you susan, let's take a look at some other stories making headlines around the world today. european union has agreed to proceed with accession negotiations with albania and north macedonia. and step comes after bulgaria and north macedonia resolved a dispute over language and a national identity. this is your 13 prisoners have been killed in a jail in the ecuadorian city of santo domingo. ignores government has attributed ongoing violence in its prisons to disputes between gangs over control of terr

there's the brakes are defect in the u. k, which is compound of issue of course, but across europe there's a stuffing crisis. indeed there is a stuff in crisis. and in the and not a low skilled or, or semi skilled, which is, you know, a lot of a lot of what airlines need, you know, security, or least the ordinary security workers are capping true. it's a semi, it's a skilled job actually. but you know the race that semi skilled, but these people are desperately needed. you cannot get them over night and getting getting baggage handlers. they may not need huge skills, but they do need security clearance because they work s side. and so if you want to get somebody back who hasn't been security clear, it can take months to, to actually get the clearance through. because so many people are applying that the, the agencies, the government agencies that, that check security clearances simply can't cope with the demand. and susan coven 19 hasn't gone away. we all wish it hard, but it's still looking now what, when you're traveling in

hi. experts saying that the u. k. is the highest risk of recession amongst the major developed economies while being grilled on such domestic problems. boss johnson frequently had tried to turn the focus away from that and towards the war in ukraine. well, let's get more now on this breaking news. that's crossover alive to alexander mckay, who's the editor of red star radio and a political unless thanks very much for joining us on naughty international. i just wanna start alexander by asking you about rashid soon act. this is the chance of the exact exec executor. i like a huge role in the u. k. government. he was one of the 1st to offer his resignation . he cited in that letter. lots of things, but one of them was disagreements over the country's economic policy. do you think that there is perhaps more to his mistrust and possibly other ministers distrust than what we hearing about in terms of this current scandal? i think that richie su, neck being who he is, which is a former banker as was such as java, the former

the reco temperatures in the u. k. have brought with them a host of problems from wildfires to pressures on the transport system and on the health of a population. not used to these conditions with climate scientists saying that the worst is yet to come. the country may have to learn to adapt as quickly as possible . paul reese, al jazeera london, while fires also burning across europe. as the continent struggles we've reco temperatures, firefighters in western spain are battling forest fires that are threatening lives and homes. in northwestern zamora province, dozens of villages been evacuated. at least 2 people have died. heat alerts have been issued in more than 20 states in the u. s. affecting on the 3rd of the countries population. while fires in texas are forced hundreds to evacuate the homes. officials expect the fires there to continue growing because of the high temperatures and dry conditions. and president vladimir putin says he's willing to facilitate ukrainian grain exports. if the remaining restrictions

the u. k is high court now decides whether to allow assange to appeal against an extradition that press freedom groups say would put journalists everywhere at risk. the american pursuit of assange is far more than a question of law. it's about geo politics. u. s. allies like sweden, the u. k and australia. have all assisted washington on this. support for assange has been growing and australia, his birthplace now has a prime minister who, while in opposition wanted him released. has anthony albanese changed his to and if he hasn't, will it make a difference? our starting point this week is wiki leeks. the worker sanchez, news organization said that landed him in jail the, it's easy to get buried in the galleries of the case against juliet. the jurisdictional question, the expedition locked the accusations of a legal hacking and asked me what can get along is the journalism assange. and what you weeks produced, starting in the mid 2000 news that was left around the world, went to town, includin

the u. k. has rarely been invaded in history, will apparently, and so, and the numbers of migrants that are hitting in british shores are significant. but they're not quite as significant as those affecting other european countries. in fact, they are fractions of those numbers. i know that one point in italy is one year they had to deal with $180000.00 migraines and they weren't reporting them anywhere . so the number of the highest numbers, i think, for great britain or anything from 25 to 30000 maximum, still high numbers, but not quite the same. and many of them are choosing england because they have relations there. after all, england has long been one of the main destinations for regular migration since the end of the 2nd world war. so i don't think this policy will survive. it has attracted too much, but attention on itself. and unlike other policies, this one has a logic on it side. political analyst i was under bruno, always interesting to hear thoughts. thanks for being with us here on

u. k. military as resumed a joint training program in the former british colony of kenya. commanders have once again admitted they've been deploying wides phosphorus in drills across the area, claiming there are legal purposes behind this. the locals are apparently concerned by the substances health impacts. despite u. k. attempts to whitewash the consequences. artie's donal quarter, explains great britain's once again, conducting military exercises in its former colony of kenya, the 2 countries just signed an agreement for closer military cooperation. and british troops are cleaning up after the latest drills to make sure the locals don't get hurt. the can you defense force in the u. k. army come together to conduct a range sweep of the unexploded ordnance on that kenya training areas that we use here. and to educate the people to live here on the dangers of that unexploded ordnance and to educate and so that they don't pick it up, they don't play with it and they don't cause a danger for

as u. e. k prime minister out there is john, i'll take a look back now his political career and his legacy not vote bras. he led his party to a landslide election victory in 2019. but boris johnson was to be undone, both by events in which he conspired, and also by his own character flaws that critics say made him unfit for high offers or still some has no say salvation. he has, there is no moral leadership, but for him it was always about becoming, i mean, they're not about being hyman's there. and he, i think he knows himself well enough that he knows that he does not have the skills that you need to be a successful prime minister. sonya panell was a reporter working alongside johnson in the brussels bureau of the daily telegraph . she describes a man with a lot of the child in him who enjoyed getting into and out of scrapes. a man drawn to calles and the chaos means that he can sort through these things going along elise, all this noise, all this commotion as the person with great. i dale the
