u. k. kind of explain its methodology and it will sort of go from that or limp from that. the reality is though, in this prose bankers it will as the issue surrounding that all beginning to bite. there is a real threat coming from france at the moment. and it does seem as if boris johnson has some really tough decisions to make. he is essentially caught between the devil and the deep blue sea for a full to come here on the program on our the international the u. k. is launching an inquiry into systematic failures that led through a police officer murdering of women. that story and many more we are back in about 60 say ah ah ah m m a c o the insert, the allows old b problems and much was a to invite everybody's lloyd. that wasn't a glitch. that was the feature that the people who does owens the internet dissolving got in as a feature ah, ah ah, i'm going to be to join us for this program. at the head of the u. s. africa command paid a surprise visit to libya this week to meet officials from both sides of a long running conflict. now, washington is pushing for a unified gove

u. k. national enough kind of stuff, that's where i will revise. you mentioned there heard from both the united states, the state department and the u. k. foreign offers warning its national to stay away from the main hotels. one specific hotel here in the capitol. ah, kabul, this is something that we've been aware of for about the last 48 hours or so. it's always been a concern folly that i so kay would step up its attacks. we've seen an increase already in the pace of its attacks over the last say 10 days or so. initially there were attacks in july about in the east of the country, then targeting a mosque here where there was a gathering of the senior leadership of the taliban, a real breach of security there. and then we had that devastating attack in the most that you just mentioned in conduce last friday. so now we have a very real threat here in the capital. the taliban has stepped up its security across various these areas, particularly with their special forces cordoning off some of the roads. main entrances, also snipers on the roof. and i

u isn't doing the same kind of trade deals. in fact, the u. k is now starting up negotiations with mexico looking to do a massive trade deal with mexico. and in fact, the u. s. need to look out for this because it's going to be so many trade deals that you case made. they'll be back to the table as a 5 top, a negotiator with the u. s. a neighbor. what before for the exactly. the reason you just mentioned bread autonomy means autonomous decisions. right now we've got your cash, boom, buzz demand and the portable tv app available on smartphones and tablets, or google play in the apple app store by searching portable tv where it will be can also be downloaded on samsung, smart tv and roku devices, or simply check it out at portable dot tv. well see next me so what we got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy. plantation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. developments only really i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time time to sit down and talk oh, is your media a reflecti

u isn't doing the same kind of trade deals. in fact, the u. k is now starting up negotiations with mexico looking to do a massive trade deal with mexico. and in fact, the u. s. need to look out for this because there's going to be so many trade deals that case made. they'll be back to the table as a fall. tough, a negotiator with the u. s. a neighbor. what before, for the exactly. the reason you just mentioned bread autonomy means autonomous decisions. right? now we've got about a minute left. i want to bring up sort of a counter argument to that, which is what we heard recently from french finance minister, bruno lemaire, he told the b, b, c, that leaving the has essentially made it worse for the nation. or do you make a frenchman? what do you expect to say that people reported that what you're going to say, gosh, brakes, it was really good and we will do that is what he's going to say. but of course, he's going to say that he has not got the same amount of trade or even going on, and he's not able to do that. and the g d p actually for the u.

u. k. to ro lagged this kind? of course we heard from a student at durham university and the diversity like how it was actually thought about what we called matriculation, which is the welcome into the college. i wasn't expecting this to be a part of the circulation, and i don't think it really should have been a part of it either going into university. i expected that this would be the case because there is a widespread amount of left wing indoctrination happening across all campuses in the u. k. not just my campus and there was no debates afterwards. and i think that was actually what i found the most frustrating about this entire thing is that they're pushing is all on to us and not give us any chance star question or go against the thoughts really simply talk thought and then left. where is supposed to be about creating inclusive environments, but to be honest, i don't think you need to pick people against each other to make him inclusive environment at the moment. she think this sort of thing is counter produ

u. k. one message is kind of trying to send them will try to clearly has not been happy with the fact that all year long of united states led by the, by the administration, the sooner administration. and not she, the administration in japan and other countries around the region around the world, clearly signal the peace and stability in the taiwan straits is the fundamental under 30 of their relationship with china. their assumption in normalizing relations with china was china would be committed to peace and still in taiwan strait. and so they have made that very clear repeatedly to child that it cannot annex i want by force. if it does so, it will destroy its relationship with them. and in addition, there might be an armed war with an our conflict with the united states and its allies, the partners of china, china tries to attack i want. so i think very clearly, beijing is trying to test the limits and there has been a very measured but from pushback, saying in essence, if you go this route, there will be cost to pay and it will not turn out well. so you're speaking of armed conflict, ti

so by applying this kind of pressure, once copies over, it will be interesting to see exactly how the u. k. is going to maneuver itself without doing further damage the population. because of course, if there is any kind of sanctions that are going to be imposed on the u. k, it is ultimately going to affect the british public, whether they're going to be able to get goods in. and of course, the bush johnson has made, of course, many promises that christmas is not going to be affected. maybe if he pushes his luck too much, it might very well be. thank you very much for that update. sonya k go live for us in london from rome, the focus of world leaders will now shift to glasgow as the you in climate summit gets underway. me, the meeting has been described as a make or break moment for the planet. rising temperatures are affecting millions of people with floods. super stones and wildfires causing devastation. our environment, it is a nic clock, has more on what we can expect from the summit in glasgow to say there's a lot at stake here in glasgow is an understatement. the science tells us wha

u. k. to the able is kind of behavior from officers. the public expect to be the height of law abiding citizens. yeah, i think this has been happening. i mean, we know that sexual abuse and it lives by the cross many aspects of life. and in particular, in the police where you have a situation where police officers hold the power and, and so there are many opportunities as a result of that for them to misuse that power. so it's not surprising to find that this happens worse in this particular community. this job that it is in the hold of the rest of the population of the u. k. a wall, or is it about the same to say, i think definitely if you're in a position of how you've got all oppertunity and so today, these sorts of things have more opportunities to, to have control and power brothers and wonderful people. and perhaps more in fact with a certainly something about how the police are dealing with it now. and the need for that was take control and put in place different measures because it has been going on so long saying if the message

u. k. we haven't been having some kind of a conversation that that level between france and spain in the same merits him or fishing issue. but this is more something that is happening because we have, there is specific agenda here and falls both electoral and at the same time because fonts is going to be presiding but having the presidency of the you are starting january 1st. so something is happening because it's, it's more political internal agenda because at the same time boys johnson wants to show his citizens that he's mastering and controlling what's happening in his water . something is happening around this more than a more larger brick set activation, technical and political conversation which is already very intense between the you and, and, and the, and the u. k. a, peter, are you surprised to how quickly this has escalated and from your vantage point, how big of a diplomatic route could this actually become? i mean, how, how much more tense could this get? well, you know, fisheries is a very sensitive political issue everywhere. so if you're a politician and you want to poster, th

otherwise the kind of functioning of the parliamentary democracy like the u. k. has but it doesn't really work so well anymore. another thing that is in the news because of this event is and kind of soul searching about the tone in which politics has talked about in the u. k. and about whether that is something that has become too he said to that, you know, that can to toxic and whether it needs to be dial down. thank you. or we challenge for those up. that's where we reporting from lee on see this saturday. we want to build on what we're talking about there and take a closer look at the current security arrangements for you. k politicians facade at the top, the houses of parliament way, and p cit, that is heavily guarded. armed police man, every entrance, the public cannot freely enter. you go outside of parliament, only the prime minister and some senior cabinet secretaries have their personal security details. as rory was saying, their regular em pays must rely on a standard police response. they can request equipment like cctv opposing alarms, but really it is

u. k. u. s. japan, i mean even canada, canada and they look kind of like a little bit lost. they're just not wanted on that stage. they to but they had sort of furniture to that to the proceedings. who are you are so where we've been discussing, i sure. yeah. common for, well, i'm going to tell you why gentlemen, this is a perfect segue to go to glen right now. glenn has a new book out. absolutely fascinating. subtitle to it. i really like it. europe as the western peninsula of greater eurasia. explain or simply an argument simpler, you're kind of grown up and it's a trans atlantic partnership as an economic region, which shows them translates into politics. so melissa shared foreign policy. now my, my argument simply that they can amik interests send to discounts for more and you have this new greater you ration constellation coming along bush by. 1 countries like china, russia and it's kind of demanding that you do it fine. so we have cooperating with this new constructor in order for not in order not to become a isolated and i guess wait to some extent, see all it ended u

u. k. and very recently the u. s. and so, you know, any kind of infection on civilian leadership also sort of flies in the face of the international support. okay. that has been given to sit down recently, put a limit, it's got a final thought from you. okay, so we've spoken about the pro military part of that dynamic. what could this mean and for the pro democracy protest movement you've been calling for the completion of the transition to food civilian room? i mean though, that should be despondency and appointments. i think from supporters of president of the, you know, it's a 1000000000 transition and elections and in 2023 potentially the beginning of 10 to 24. the question is now what, what sort of steps could they take to impress upon the military? to what extent they are again, it's not because we don't know yet what the minutes will do because the merger has been actually very, very quiet. since since around the 16th of october or so, suddenly it has been very quiet since the pro democracy mass. but democracy purchased on the 21st, i th

u. s. history and the history of the major dean. isn't this another case of a terrible blowback that isis k is actually a kind of descendant of british and u. s. policy and serious and 2011? well, i don't think so. i mean, i think what happened in to take it back to the iraq syria theater is that after brock obama withdrew american forces from iraq in 2011. because really what could go wrong? everything? everything was taken care of. that's when ice this arose in western iraq and eastern syria and we had to go back in to counter this new threat are more virulent form of al qaeda. so i hardly think that it was in reaction to our withdrawal that we saw isis arise. i think it was the spread of this terrorist mentality which was of course, the thing to read. of course, one can say that then it's still a descendant of u. s. u k policy because of the invasion of iraq. i mean, i, i the way with them. i, well, maybe it all goes back to british peer, elizabeth 19. everything does ambassador. huh. know that this is more recent, obviously the 2001 war i should. i mean, before we leave afghanistan, i should just quickly say, you have warned that

u. k . all over the globe. so that is kind of causing us more problems, which as you said, they learn is, is part of the business. you know, we really have to deal with us and the business sector is doing that. does cover the business sector is dealing with it. i mean, you look a bit skeptical there. yeah. because i do agree that it is one. it a lifetime event. it's a big but then it shocks some people calling it a block funny event. but i, i'm of the opinion that we have had version of such events, smaller scale, but we haven't, we haven't seen disruptions since 201140. and you know, every time i feel like and destruction occur, we try to deviate the solution rather than thinking about more long term solutions that be, that we can probably event. so, for example, one thing that i'm particularly if you take the example of co is what i, what i think is that it is a global problem of supply chain global. however, you know, covered as for the governments to, as they, as they should at this time, to look a lot more inputs and they

it raises standards of living, all that kind of metrics in the u. k. have raised fears of an unprecedented crisis facing the ambulance service with one local department, even pleading with the public to think twice before calling. because the simply on enough staff to cover the workload south central ambulance services declared a critical incident g. 2 extreme precious across our services, our staff and volunteers are working extremely hard to respond to cause, but the volume is overwhelming. there are absolutely situations where people waiting many, many hours, both to get into the hospital. and then once they've been in the hospital waiting to see a doctor course, it has a detrimental effect on anybody who's waiting for hours either in london. so sitting in an emergency department and nobody working in those services wants to see that happens. but there is a huge amount of pressure on there. now, just at the moment, meanwhile, ambulances are being forced to stay in cues for hours outside hospitals, which are struggling to cope themselves with the dem

u. k. the u. s. germany, rutter, japan, and a couple of others. what is this? is this, this kind of, if you want, if you, if you call it vantage or, or leadership negatively, the ship is being fitting away because we're going to be taken up by the middle class and the rich gloves of india, china, south africa and others, right? i think we need to be, we need to be aware that there's a common understanding that we need to decala nice and the comes of climate change stuff, colonize, yeah. or cover. and i can see the stephanie, you talked about about paying back. i think the public these days understands the climate change is real up. that argument is one, right? and people think it's fairly safe to say worried. does the public though understand the costs involved in fixing the problems? i mean polluters should pay, of course. but what about the public? well, i don't know what the public you're thinking. i'm coming from a scientific perspective. and i think that most people would understand that you have for that to happen. responsibility. as a precautionary principal, of course, so

u. k. could been missing out on a life saving kind of a child of a as confusion about the difference between a fed dose of the vaccine under booster. the inoculations must be given in the correct order, but the 2 terms are often used interchangeably leading to mix ups in even among medics. the wife of one man with a red type of blood cancer told us in the week how they'd been caught in the confusion. i went to to the gps injury monday, and she said there is no sir john. chris. sure there's no, i think, right? he says, this is different to a booster. it is part of the primary course of the vaccine. right. but credited back to my research and my research, what i found whilst that is a dose, gosh, the booster iraqi volume as winter looms. and rumors of returning to lockdown, circulate the government is upping the ante on the vaccination top rollouts. but those that need it, the most struggling to get the 3rd dose they so desperately need do to confusion over the differences between the 3rd jab and the booster by the very people administering them. leasing local, 90 q 2. and the thing, the way i

u. k. the example, that's what he said. and so i thought, wow, how rich that they want to be the example because the u. k is literally in the worse shape out of all they're taking kind of a plane out of a california, which is let shut down all our natural gas. and then we'll borrow from france. but they didn't get as much from france as they were hoping to. they've also moved a lot to quote unquote renewables or way, maybe we'll call them unreliable, which is wind. and oh, shoot. we kind of had a quick on how it lo, windier. we didn't furnace prison of wind. now they're sitting on massive amounts of natural gas reserves. they could get it out of the ground if they want to, but they don't. and so they're literally causing his problems to themselves, right? well the u. k. a certainly setting themselves up to be an example. an example of stupidity and i think everyone now knows it, but let's move on to a country that is setting a new example for excellence and foresight. and that would be el salvador, their mining big coin with volcano energy, which is virtually free. a columbia is proposing to mine bitcoin using waterfall energy. it's same as big coin fixed as these e

u. k. the example, that's what he said. and so i thought, wow, how rich that they want to be the example because the u. k is literally in the worse shape out of all they're taking kind of a plane out of a california which is less natural gas. and then we'll borrow from france, but they didn't get as much from france as they were hoping to. they've also moved a lot to quote unquote renewables or way. maybe we'll call them unreliable, which is wind. and oh, shoot. we kind of had a quick on how it lo, windier. we didn't furnace prison of wind. now they're sitting on massive amounts of natural gas reserves. they could get it out of the ground if they want to, but they don't. and so they're literally causing this problems to themselves, right? well the, a k, a certainly setting themselves up to be an example, an example of stupidity. and i think everyone now knows it, but let's move on to a country that is setting a new example for excellence and foresight. and that would be el salvador, their mining big coin with volcano energy, which is virtually free. i columbia is proposing to mind big coin using waterfall energy. it seems bitcoin fixed as these energy markets. how y

u. s. is actually a crime participant and this kind of a really crazy, monstrous, no tax avoidance for less attractive fuel travels in the u. k. next. and there is a crystal on the balance of petrol stations. they're still saying they're running dry and angry, drivers forming huge cues from today. the u. k. governments deploy military personnel around the country to try to help ease the crisis. our correspondent, shoddy edwards, dash, the reports next then from london is day 10 now of the petrol crisis situation. and the united kingdom is still seeing many cars backed up outside of petrol stations. people waiting hours to fill up that tanks and even the public transportation is being diverted away to avoid all of this gridlock things have gotten so bad. now, the minute tree has now been deployed and drafted in to try and get the fuel to the petrol station. i think it's also really bold that we can actually call in the military at a time like this fold. i think for support to give that confidence and have a misha that's there as a precaution, because as i say, the situation is stabilizing. no one's going to pretend his complet

what have you cancel this kind of despair is it's an absolute puzzle to me. and i've been speaking to colleagues from the u. k. we've approached the high commission in pretoria. i went, oh, really getting clear answers or one of the insights i got this week? or was when one of the officials at the embassy indicated that they've been getting information from some scientists in south africa, not from the ministerial advisory committee, which has the top south african scientists. but some scientists who disagree or with data that our government or has been publishing. i found this absolutely astounding. the u. k is a very good friend and partner to south africa. but i am really shocked at this read lester read listing of south africa. i'm also horrified to learn that travel agents have been told that even sub africans who are vaccinated as long as south africa's on the red list, they were in be regarded as her having an authentic vaccine. this is a either it's madness actually and doesn't go well with who we know. busy the u. k to be it also has dire economic consequences for both countries and we have of great

they kind of rely on that allies alliance between the u. k. u. s. a state, which basically went against alliances. basically put a, put a dagger in the trust. there were a lack of trust, a major part in the nato side. it is the key part of that. do you think we will see more defense punks between nato members than i do. i think we're pending how this goes. i do see that we will see additional pack internally within the nato alliance between park and as he is on us international, the san join me from nor, and iraq said to minutes off next 8 been bust. ah, look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point. obviously is to race trust rather than fear. a very job with artificial intelligence, real summoning with a robot must protect its own existence. with now in the 21st century, we have a panic buying spree and commodities. comm
