u. k. government has for the foreign policy disaster, the west mr. parties seem to agree that the u. k. sure was know to open its doors today few days. oh, very laudable. but it will leave some 38000000 guns still in their own country. however, there was little reflection from the current crop of m piece on the wisdom of the decision 20 years ago. not just to defeat the taliban, but to attempt to occupy a nation build this country. this task was embarked to point despite every clear lesson of history to make alexander the great to the british empire, to the soviet union. every invading army marched into the gun on easily and every one came out. bloody. meanwhile and cobbled victorious taliban confounded their critics by often conciliation instead of barbarism. this is what they had to say. i want to give assurances to all competitors, those on the positions side as interpreters involved in military actions or those who health and civilian sectors. we have granted them all amnesty. we don't want to take revenge on any one and those youths who are talented and from the soil. we don't want them

u. k. foreign minister dominate rob setting out pragmatic steps for how the u. k. will engage with the taliban, including making sure that they stick to those counter terrorism commitments that they made in doha. and then there's also going to be an emergency un security council meeting later tonight in new york, and that's where they're going to discuss creating a safe so incredible so that people can access the court. now on sunday the taliban said there's no need to create a safe thing because the war is over. but we know that president, my caller frances, really throwing his weight behind this proposal. it's one that's been joining proposed by the u. k. france and germany. and it has been used in operations before . we know that they're going to be efforts to really bring russia and china on board 2 countries also, who are considered to have considerable influence with the new power brokers in afghanistan. so a flurry of fanatic efforts now, as the military efforts, and i'm charlie, we know the u. k. government is taking in a number of afghans. how is that progressing? how people they are dealing with yes, the,

u. k. obviously, i mean, i'm sure those in the lead to watching this will say jeremy corbin did off of that and it was rejected at the ballot box. but that's go to our international view as i just say to lack of, there was an election. the international view is especially the rich ones watching . why do you think britain is one of the greatest tax havens in the world? now that's something to be proud of. surely, i've written 2 books on tax havens and i've also this opinion that britain is now one of the biggest tax savings in the world. and i will give you the explanation in a few numbers. there are 4700000 companies in the u. k. we can't explain why a population of size need so many companies. the tax authorities only off the tax returns from too many of those companies and half of the rest say, we are not trading. please do not trouble us by asking for a tax return. and then the u. k. we say, yeah, that's right. we won't ask you for information of the ones that do submit the information. a significant number say they have no profits and the number of investigations is tiny. so if you want

i'm not entirely sure how fond the u. k. government is of my calling and have policies, but maybe it's retaliation for something i couldn't really tell you. i think it definitely has that political ties and i do think that it's pretty ridiculous. they shouldn't single out certain countries over other countries. so why was fraud singles out earlier this u. k. government denies you travel car due to the news, but then unexpectedly placed additional restrictions on those coming via from the u . k. says it was concerned about the prevalence holes, the b to very intense. now this i'm the plus cast agreement. tens of thousands of holidaymakers had to cancel my plans pretty much last minute and that many scratching their heads with 6 to see if it was mostly football which is excessive. and frankly, it is in comprehensive or from a health point of view. we were at times in a difficult health situation in france. we understood that, but no other european country is obliged to quarantine by the u. k. and less than 5 percent of cases

u. k. 600, a strong operation, 600 troops. a rapid reaction force is being sent to kabul. it will make sure that there is an evacuation plan that goes through all u. k. nationals, embassy, staff, and also afghans who work for the british forces that's program in which interior ministry officials from the u. k. have been sent in a draft gone to try and speed that operation up to get the protection. but these africa nationals want and they want to be relocated to the u. k. now bonus johnson is trying really to say that this is a success the 20 years of warfare, which the u. k. was involved with alongside the u. s. is a success. this is how he tries to print glossy picture. i don't believe it was in vain because i do think when you look back at what has happened over the last 20 as there was a massive effort to deal with a particular problem that everybody will remember after 911. and that was successful. and to a very large extent, the threat from our car on the streets of, of our capital with around the u. k. around the whole, the west was greatly, greatly reduced. but johnson's defense mini

u. k. the 1st is $970.00. they are not sure how wilson cold, quite suddenly, off the back of a rise in makers, opinion poll standing, and the opinion polls kept on suggesting that he was going to read actually some light pi. particularly one poll done by pinging research and she suggested that maybe there was a late spring and maybe up she was trying to make it. what in d? chad, he did my good and that resulted in the 1st, substantially inquiry as to why the poles coffee wrong. and the answer was essentially what you did that was a late spring and you have to remember back in those days when your balls were being conducted by interviewers going out and knocking on people's doors. so they couldn't be done a last minute in the same way. they can be john, essentially over the internet. so that was the last. well, the 2nd one was 992. when the opinion polls seemed to suggest that perhaps whatever party was at least going to deny the can service and i was overcharging, maybe we'd have a pod, much in the. and the conservatives got th

u. k, there's been a huge effort by small charities and large organizations like the red cross to make sure that you're right have the basics. this is just one of several locations where newly arrived, afghans are being held in quarantine beyond their immediate needs. many of them will be wondering just what the new life in britain is going to look like. i'm at the la uvie is one of them. he's a former african special forces soldier and fled with his wife and 2 young children . he says he hopes his family can contribute to society. here you start from 0. it's like you need to start it from the beginning. like the career i had it back in my country. i don't have it but there are many hopes i've been women have live channels and i've got it. yeah. they have more chances this associations been going for 20 years. it's founder. he came to britain as a refugee says, their work goes well beyond the next few weeks. we hope that the local authorities with the support of the central government will use the emergency fund to make sure that the new community will have housing access to housing in educ

u. k. is high court of justice in central london. the u. s. is being allowed to appeal against the decision not to expedite. ricky lee founded julian a sorry, i'm not sure which is broadcast. some of his supporters with what's going on during the fall. 2015 on purchase justice has just been thrown out the window, the u. s government is using the u. k. tax payers money for these aberrations of justice cases. the whole thing is going to be, you can't depend on the fresh edition you, anybody, li, 3 in the mainstream major in the you are on notice. if they get behind these, they're going to be next. on january, the 4th, the british judge had ruled someone couldn't be expedited to america. why can concerns about his mental health and the risk of suicide in the us prison record remain in a british high security prison. he's considered a flight risk and has spent the last decade either in a prison or the ecuadorian embassy in london. what a decision on a soldier's native hearing isn't expected until the open one outside the high court county supporters were protesting against his extradition, including former opposition leader, jeremy corbin, german under thre

and our priority is to make sure that we deliver on obligations to u. k. nationals in get us to all those who have helped to the i british at the, the not going to stone over over 20 years and to get them out as fast as we can. so the pastor is, is working by the talk, has been there in the airport to help process the applications as you know about 224-2000. i've counted when he left and i come to this country under our re settlement scheme, and we're going to get as many as we can out in the next few days. but plainly, the situation remains very difficult, and it's clear there is going to be, oh, there is there going to be very shortly. and you government, in kabul, or a new political dispensation. how do you want to, to put it? and i think it's very important that the west collectively should work together to get over to that new government beat by the time that i don't or anybody else as it nobody. once at kennestone once again to be a, a breeding ground for tara. and we don't think that it's in the interest of the people who have kind of time that it

u. k. in the country. so they'll be wanting to make sure they don't leave anyone behind. but these attacks could obviously change that. we've also been hearing from the french prime minister menu, mac cross who's been talking about the rapidly deteriorating situation. the now the last flight we're planning to be on friday. he's saying that there are 20 buses with, with french citizens and africans on board. some inside the apple, some still waiting outside the gate and they're desperately trying to get them through and put them on their last evacuation flights and their discussion with the taliban. the prime and the french president also said that there are several 100 africans that he wants to evacuate from the country, but it may be seen whether or not he'll be successful in that. but yes, the threat of attacks, which we've now seen take place did bring forward evacuation flights for a lot of those countries that you mentioned. candidate, germany, poland, hungary, on the netherlands and the dutch government, as they were pulling up earlier today on, says they admitted t

u. k. and australia have issued a new advisory calling on the private and public sectors to catch up before they are targeted by hackers will discuss. and as we go to break sure the numbers out the clothes shoes me in the old days before breaks it because the u. k. was attached to you. 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 block. and you could kind of buy time there because the sci fi is printing and buying and monetizing debt by the trillion. so christine the garden, literally just buying trillions and trying to garbage debt, but now post brag that they don't have that way to wash the debts into the greater he, you laundromat. and so that is going to, for the 1st time post bracket. debts are going to start to cause a lot of pain. i really wish it was nice to have off the field. but all the people that actually use them shape which is a big me put your budget that i would continue to tell you because it was i didn't really get famous from a credit issued by both of us in the you know, what would you give them an idea, and by that it can m

u. k. government is holding a series of the things with international partners to make sure the taliban fixed commitments could consist sizes. the phone with the last guns left behind by foreign forces will still be allowed to leave. pocket stones or me says to the soldiers were killed in an attack of the african border attack as far as a military post in bush, our district for such assaults, since the taliban seas kabul over 2 weeks ago. at least one person has been killed after hurricane. either one of the most powerful storms ever to hit us struck its gulf coast. the store knocked out all power in the city of new orleans. torrential rain and high waves triggered flash floods. the storm made landfall as a category for hurricane that has since been downgraded phil laval. reports from new orleans. they were warned to prepare. but how do you prepare the bis water pouring through this hope? and all the owner can do is helplessly watch a live feed on camera. hurricane ida has well and truly a right now bringing 240 kilometer an hour winds and chaos to louisiana. the storm is a life threate

and we have to make sure we exploit every minute to get people that well. 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

u. k condemns, i'm as attacks on civilians and reaffirms israel's right to self defense. well, right, find out sure. you had to say that, but there are not 2 sides. and actually the very notion of 2 sides is obscene. it's like people looking up at a german bombs during the blitz since i got. but there's 2 sides here. you know, the, the, the, the palestinians have crewed rockets and when they're accused of indiscriminate chelly. yes. the rockets accrued but on the other hand, israel is doing the discriminant targeting it's, it's, it's, it's been deliberately attacking as it's always done civilian target. and we have the spectacle, the other day of a high rise building in which the, the, the media, almost all palestinian, certainly non western media. we, we have the spectacle of this building being blown up by the israelis with the nonsensical story that it was harboring her mouth. it was and, and all those journals, there are witnesses that it's like the babies have report to germany, poet who talks about a war between israel and her mouth. bowen knows by wrong, it's an attack on unoccupied people b

sure or government. save it nearly 15000 people have been evacuated to the u. k. since mid august. but they're in the words of nick carter. the head of the armed forces they, they've done the a good job in the circumstances. well, there are some criticisms that more than a 1000 people who worked for the british on services are being left behind and questions about exactly how much assistance can be provided to them right now. ok, nadine bob but that lie from london. thank you. in a dream, well as the evacuation signs and attention is not turning to can sense lands, borges, of some of the java, it is the pakistan, the scan boards are. what's it like they're sama because the have been predictions of many people turning to the landlord is particularly with pakistan to get out of the country. what have you been seeing about to receive okay, we're going to have where i'm free. we're going to have to draw part of that. unfortunately, we are having problems with some as mike, as soon as we get that sausage will, of course, bring you the view from the lines border and other important aspec

u. k. military casualties. as a result of that, there may have been asking in casualties and i'm sure there were african casualties . well, it will take us a little bit of time to actually learn how many afghans came casually. we took some of them on board, the installation. many of them were taking the hospitals out in town. so what i see is what i, what i get an open source reporting about the nature of those casualties. but we're, we're, we're, we're trying to gather more information about it. so the last point i would tell you, i don't know, i don't know the size of the bomb and size the bomb is directly related to how many people are going to be affected by the blast radius of the weapons. and so i, we're going to investigate that. as i've noted before, you're at the interface point, they're at these gates, somebody's actually got to watch someone else from the eyes and decide that they're ready to come in. and so we will find out what exactly what happened. but beyond that, i would not want to speculate at this time. jennifer, thank you. any other american citizens from the state department who were killed?

of course, many phone calls, i'm sure going from european capitals to the us and vice versa. yes. well the one half the u. k. defense ministry is that they're still trying to establish exactly what has happened, whether or not has it has affected any of the personnel or the ask and they're trying to get out. and i remember there's still a large number of civil servants including the u. k. basset to afghanistan inside the perimeter of the port still processing visa applications, and they have said that they will remain that until the last minute. we know that the threat of these attacks, which the u. k on 4th minister was talking about this morning, has brought forward the evacuation flights and ended the evacuation flight for many countries. the u. s. had warned countries to remove the military and embassy personnel immediately. they said that the situation on the ground was deteriorating rapidly. we've now seen evidence of that, so we know that the last flight for the netherlands, poland, hungary, canada, belgium and denmark have left. they've wraps up their evacuation effort, and denmark has it. and so th
