u. s. for assessment and possible treatment. the u. k. hospital say she has no chance of recovery. i'm not such a journey would only bring her further pain. the family's lawyer again outlined his thoughts about the judge's ruling. when you take the case to the european court, you're affectively taking the case against the government. because you are saying that the processes that we used were wrong and should have been, should have been better, they weren't properly applied. and so the position in a case like this is one where very often cases to the european court of human rights on successful. so it was one where you're asking the court to look at processes and procedures and it's, it's easier in a way for the european court of human rights to say, well, actually we don't, we don't find this is a problem here. then actually getting into the minucci case still ahead in the program ceiling to a new record, the highest daily figure for illegal migrants making the journey across the english shuttle from mainland europe to the u. k. and i'm plenty more besides the the ah me rather tha

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 anyb

u. k. and less than 5 percent of cases in france are of the beat of variance. the better variance covers only 9 percent of cases in france and keeps declining in paris. it's 3 percent. but this point we're pleased to see since we check the data and given that much progress i speak to rate, it's based on levels in some of its overseas territories, thousands of miles away in the indian ocean, north on the mainland to hearing from you can government is sounding fun, the better very, and it is not just as has been reported on the island, thousands of miles away. it was also an issue in particular in northern france. so it has been an overall concern and with no change definitively site fully vaccinated travel is just like myself heading to the u. k. a for the pay, hundreds of pounds a piece be all done to isolate for up to $10.00 days. see you on the other side. so no, on the years, they will check that go the new or the 1st one that i have the negative proof of tests. the 2nd one, re checking that as well as my id. 3rd, one is normally what you'd expect to go throu

and more unsettling video for you here on the program showing covered bodies lying in the street ahead of the atrocity, the u. k. u. s. and other western nations had all been warning their nationals about the threat of a severe attack and telling them all to avoid the airport. and the witness who we spoke to says asked can swell at the end of the day, if he left just a friend for themselves, the floors we feel abandoned. that's because you all these people, those who are trying to get in there for they are having some documents that, that they can go. but the other people like actually doesn't have anything. all these, do you have the name? the media is in the news. so lots of them doesn't have any legal documents that they are trying to get out. there are like more than 20000 we have taken. but right now, this thing is all messed up automated. i don't know why the americans are not processing then anymore. but lots of people just like us are stuck in and hearing and know everyone is trying, you know, just to get out of this country of this situation and run from taliban. so yes, we left abandon, we are left be

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 this 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 brag that 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 bracket, those debts are going to start cause a lot of pain. yeah. and okay, 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 tightened like we're, nobody's even allowed to discuss. we're just allowed to just sit here and watch dose style

u. s. 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

all for now the us troops appear to be finally leaving the canister. joining me now from norfolk and the u. k. is one smith, a former soldier and award winning journalist who is embedded with the british army in afghanistan and $27.00. and also gave shelter to julian assigned in his home in 2010 in the wake of the release of the war logs. he's the founder of london's frontline club for journalists, welcome back von, to going underground. it wasn't that long ago. i seem to remember that there were journalists that your frontline club telling us things were going fine in this war after 911 will be with the saudi that were more involved in afghanistan. you were embed, it would soldiers in helmand, after serving the british army and you get sloppier. what do you make of events now? and i tv screens. i yes, i didn't, i didn't trim, but actually i was embedded with my own old regiment. i'd been assaulted myself in the old days and yes, you're right. that's been so much news and discussion of this, this war. this is a factor to go on. on the 20 year. we've been in a kind of phone for 20 years, very

u. k. and others there accusation that russian officials, russian representatives, russian intelligence, service operatives have been active in their minds in parts of the e. u. certainly in the united kingdom, people will recall a level of activity that the british government accuses the russians of complicity in, in the u. k. regarding the case of the script pass, the russian family, the father and daughter who were the victims of a navi shock poisoning some time ago. but there be more recent development. certainly in the course of the last few months in june. here in germany, a russian research assistant working at the university of augsburg was arrested by german police. the accusation that the person concerned had been handing over information to the russian government in return for cash in that case is not reach fruition. but it adds to that sense of what has been going on. of course, these are accusations being made, not just by the german government, but in by the british government, by

u. k. and the us, well, they thought about recent events in afghanistan, the whole politicians throughout the world should be smoothly hanging their head in shame. what's happening? absolutely disgraceful. with cd effects no longer was the, everybody, not just a gun to some european america. everybody was and it has created a great deal of difficulty for people working there. and obviously for the native, a people of afghanistan, shame, what's happening over there, but have dentist and they've been fighting for 102 years. the fact that we've been over there for 20 years, we really haven't stabilized the country. there's no reason for us to be over. there are the women that are left behind. i know what is that you know the taliban regime saying that they will allow women to have the freedom that they've enjoyed have 20 years. but i don't believe it was a problem. this as coverage of the unraveling situation, enough danced on. we've been following it closely. we'll continue to do so. this is auto

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 the 4t

and speaking of the u. k. here in london, we've had a statement in the morning of the sort of screamingly obvious, if you like from the defense secretary ben wallace, who said the taliban is clearly now in control. the u. k. and nato will not be going back in to confront them. but he did make the point that it was simply too early to talk about whether or not to recognize the taliban government. that would be based, he said on their actions, not the rhetoric that is a view echoed by the russian government the crime. and they've still got an ambassador on the ground. their embassy is still open in cobble and they're said to be preparing for meetings with taliban on tuesday. also say too early to tell, depends what they do and not what they say. and you know, here in the u. k, and they may well be elsewhere. a furious debate, debate ongoing, about responsibility about accountability, about why they couldn't stay just because the u. s. left about the manner of this exit one very prominent voice in the conservativ

u. k. and frank trying to take the opportunity to plead with us president joe biden, to extend that deadline for evacuation beyond august the 31st. but joe biden, sticking to that day to those countries, of course, want us to remain at least couple airport to help with evacuation efforts. there are many diplomats and foreign officials sit and i found a song, but of course also africa who selves who works with the occupation over the course of the last 20 years. but we also saw that you are the european commission president vonda lion coming forward to speak about whether or not that would be a formal recognition of the tyler bond. and there will 40 and i've got to start. she said that that's not something the g 7 would consider that very clear pre conditions to talk with charlie bon and shaw. michelle said there are operational talks that are necessary for the daily proceedings around cumberland, the airport. but this is completely separated from political talks or any question of recognition.

u. k and they 2 forces. it is one of the places where tens of thousands of afghans have been gathering up the taliban took control of cobble on august 15th. they've been going there to have their papers processed before being evacuated out of the country. western governments and security experts in cobble had be warning about a potential attacks around the airport for days. the taliban told al jazeera, it had intelligence about potential car bombs in the area, and also people to stay away. an increasing number of nato countries have already announced the halt to their evacuation operations. and these attacks jeopardize remaining flights. meaning many afghans who want to leave their country and they have all the necessary documents to do so could be left behind. well, we're closely monitoring those evacuation efforts in a moment, may need bulk or in london. we'll have an update on the final out of the british lead operation, but 1st speak to charles, who just heard from his in a couple lie for us now. and i'l

bob g, u k, of course, has also had a significant presence in afghanistan and there, and confirming that the u. k. evacuations will end this saturday. that's right. they said earlier on via the head of the armed forces. the civilian evacuations were ending on saturday. but now we've got it confirmed from the ministry of defense. the last flights purely for afghan civilians to be evacuated out of cobble and to the u. k. have actually taken off their maybe for the flights in the day, which do have a few afghan civilians together with british diplomatic stuff and british military personnel. so really this is confirmation that some things have moved to a new phase. there is a video that's been put out by the u. k. buster in kabul. laurie bridgestone, who said that it's the end of one phase of operations. he says, we haven't forgotten the people who still need to leave will continue to do everything we can to help them. nor have we forgotten the brave and decent people of dentist on they deserve to live in peace and security. think this is the message that the government would be wanting to p

and more. now when we're talking about the u. k. in this post bruckner era, one of the really big things here has been these free trade agreements. we know that working on one with new zealand and really kind of going after these non you partners what fully this there. well, there's lots of things happening. in fact, let's try to with here a few weeks ago, she has been in new zealand for the past week. she's been working with on a trade agreement that would actually be extremely beneficial. not just because it's new zealand with obviously common heritage, common history, common values, common law, common law, no pun intended, to the law of common law and common. but also it's a real gateway to that pacific rim where you have over 12 countries that belong in town as academically for trade agreements. so this is like an entree point into all those countries as well, of which some of the agreements are also moving along. so she is now over 70 trade agreements. and prior to breakfast, there was 72 trade agreements that the you have with

u. k. and so we, the last job we come in and so on. they not only have to talk to, but after why is wing press on the daily telegraph the, the times and so on. and that's in case too much of a mountain decline. johnson would say he was defending them women to whether nicole received and he's lying with alex. we do. thank you. thank you very much. that's it for the show will be back on saturday. 5070. as the us president johnson signed before flag gulf of tonkin resume having a waiver, tens of millions, dead wounded or displaced through vietnam, low and cambodia. until then keep in touch, right, social media and let us know whether you think the issues raised, whether getting involved, doug and 10 years ago have been late arrest. ah, okay, let's go and jerry, here's a country that is suffering from inflation. they have a huge population of 200000000 or more very young people that are already online already on their funds. and the government is not really able to crack down, let's say, as you could see in china safe and all those things

u. k, it's anticipated to effect about 40000000 travelers from the u. k. and to you, it's almost like a not a passport, it's a visa, like up to declare where you're from your background. no prior crimes, and you're not obviously a terrorist, etc. 6 pounds isn't a lot of money. i mentioned the currency rate earlier, $139.00, that would be $8.36 money. anybody traveling? no one's going to talk to you if you can afford $0.36. however, it's the principal to put something like this in place. actually, it's not just your opinions, anybody watching from the us. bear in mind they're putting this in the place of the u. s. travellers. i don't mean to be the senate care, but the reason i think they're really doing this. they need to raise funds. they have not done well doing cobit, that policies aren't good. there is not as much entrepreneurship. they've not done well at all since breakfast, and they're going to lose one of the biggest trading partners that they have. so i think they need money, i guess the fastest way to raise it for them. that is even when it's only un

u. k. possible holders, evacuations that also africa and the civilians who are part of the a british military operation. now they're reducing the number of stuff in the u. k embassy. and they're moving it to an undisclosed location out of the area in right now, which is a secure, high security area anyway. but there is a lot of alarm about this. there is no doubt and a major operation going on. now to get out all the afghan has another signal to, to turn about making advances that really surprised military strategists in the west pace of it. and they are making a strident moves. it would seem not in any way put off by any frets of further action from the forces before they leave. and there is definitely a situation now where the, the big word in military circles is get out. the un is calling for an immediate end to a new wave of violence. in serious southwestern city of drop, thousands of civilians fled heavy shilling and ground battles between government forces and rebel forces. the special envoy says local to suffering from acute shortages, food, fuel, water and medicines. the city was put

and protest have gathered in london condemning the u. k. government's response to events and i've got to stand there cooling for those still stuck in the country to be brought to the u. k as quickly as possible. ok, partridge has more purchased face afghans. i'm supposed to be including m. p. 's and stop the war coalition. gathered outside parliament ahead of the debate on us. got his son very appealing to the government to bring those who stood the british and american forces in afghanistan to the u. k. to protect them from the taliban on tuesday night, the government said the u. k. will take up to 20000 refugees over the coming years . a number which home secretary pretty battelle not says could more than double put opposition figures want to see the plan behind the promises. i'm hoping that the government will both explain the chaos of the evacuation will agree on a much larger number of refugees. tony's this come to the support for them, dropped the anti refugee rhetoric pretty battelle has been dish out with the past few months. and a

i mean one of the vacation and in the u. k. need to demonstrate why black lives matter important and why they need been so necessary. life has been, have been magically undervalued to love. and suddenly 10 years on that we need to strengthen our we so to end to be just going to to the 10. so now when it comes to end to be class racial inequalities, which of course exist around the world, are we seeing that quite clearly? quite starkly. and we've also seen that we have not made much progress in all of the time. and it says the connected need here when it comes to the police and you know, not even just 10 years since mom and dad, but actually 40 years since this common report, 981. and because it brings no joy to the situation and i'm sure you might know joy for the family of mark doesn't. who was i believe unjustly, killed by police in a failed operation. of course, you know, at that time i know a lot about what happened because i was the chair of operation try to, i mean, you have in on you monitoring. well, they're going to the

u. k is poised militarily when it comes to ice or so the u. k. chief marshal mike wiggs and is saying that you guys ready to play a role in the global coalition against, against islamic state in the event, with any strikes or moving troops or equipment to a particular country. obviously, it's very days for that. but it comes amid warnings that the k off enough enough kind of stuff has really increased the terrorist threat here in the u. k. so both diplomatic and military front. so the question now though is whether the taliban will stick to its commitment one to safe passage and to its commitments on counter terrorism. whether the west has enough leverage, told them to the commitment. thanks, charlie, charlie angela live 1st there in london. ah, we'll continue without coverage of events in the scan. stan, i just did a correspondence or hey, eliza has been at cobble international airport and has this update and the 100 of them above where we are now able to enter the airport. we will head straight to the terminal, access into the building was impossible in the past few days,

i saw k and now the u. s. is actually needing taliban cooperation to try to help secure the airport to evacuate americans and afghan partners. yeah. and on that important issue of coordination with the taliban, as you're saying seems to be key. do we know if this us cooperation will continue after august 30? first of the taliban we don't know any both biden. and his administration officials are being a little vague on this. what they are saying is this, do we trust the taliban know, do we feel that we can at least work with the taliban for the next few days until august, 31st. yes, biden says that they have neutral interest to work together right now in the short term, the us interest is to have taliban security personnel guarding the outside of the airport, the perimeter, the u. s. needs to taliban to do that in order to help secure the area and the taliban. they need the u. s. or want the us to get out of cobble as soon as possible. so it's in their best interest. the u. s. feels for the taliban to cooperate

the design that we've come up with, ethical, sustainable, and entirely made in the u. k. it looks like face most to be part of many people's lives, at least in the short term. whatever, calling the way they're being urged to consider where it comes from and where it'll end up i this is al jazeera. ah, hello, i me, parker. this is the, i'll just hear a news live from london coming up. the honey close couple airports is thousands, desperately tried to force their way onto evacuation flight before the august 31st deadline. the legal bachelor for indigenous people in brazil. what it could mean for other tribes and they're in such a toxic relationship. we look at how organized crime groups have turned romania into europe's dumping ground. i'm devin ash, with sports the route of international football, intensifies fever is urging english and spanish clubs to release the players for wildcard qualifies adage versus u. k. government asking especially exemptions. it's a cobit 19 travel restriction. ah, the massive if accusation efforts, cobble airport is picking up pace. panic is gr

u. k. and of the european countries for the evacuation to be extended beyond the 31st of august deadline. but the u. k. foreign sector insist that the circle, special relationship with washington does remain strong. looking at events yesterday in the g 7 summit is a special relationship over foreign secretary. mary coast isn't. it's matters huge . okay, let's cross live to london now are corresponded, knows k, partridge, k. good afternoon. britain apparently has failed to persuade america to extend the evacuation deadline. where does that leave the trans atlantic relationship? was we heard u. k. foreign secretary dominate. rob says britain's failure to persuade the us to extend the evacuation from afghanistan, doesn't mean the special relationship is over, but it has left a bitter taste in the mouth, and joe biden has been harshly criticized. the u. s. president says, staying longer in cargo would raise the risk of an attack. why is logic state and strain a tenuous working relationship with the
