u. k. called cinema was now there are 42 in the u. k. so drive in everything that never existed in the u. k at all. so i think the economy has adopted very well. i don't think it'll be a hard hit with a 2nd shut down. because there is far more adaptation and the economy has adjusted also, you're going to see that the borrowing know from the government, which is the highest it's ever been since $946.00 is going to increase. that is a long term worry. how will this government borrowing affect the long term economic prospects for the u. k. in any other country that has shut down and the u. k. won't be alone there because as we talked about last week on the show, the global that in general is up because of all of these stimuli right now we've talked at length about how the breakfast brack. that saga is far from over writers . is that reporting that the u. k is expected to call for changes to the northern ireland protocol, which was a major sticking point in negotiations as they finalized the divorce. what is the issue at hand here, and does this put further tension on that content in relationship that w

u. k. but the brakes, it minister says that is putting a burden on businesses in northern ireland and british unionists. there complain it weaken their ties with the rest of the u. k. the u. k. govern also says it is increasing its efforts with france to stop undocumented migrants from crossing the english channel in small boats. on monday, at least $430.00, made that dangerous journey, which is any daily record, but with the numbers rising, sometimes the only solution is legal. safe routes. lighting. barbara has more. they've made it on to the british soil, but the future is unknown. these undocumented migrants are among around 8 and a half 1000 people who cross the english channel in small boats this year. that's more than the total for 2020. with those numbers in the headlines, the government says it's acting insisting it's new nationality and board. as bill will deter people from coming, what we're seeing right now is basically people tropical smoke load criminal guy. can our assignment system to bring in economic migrants and people that quite frank date. the convention, our legal migration was coming to our country illegally and physical. there are difficult reform

u. k and the evidence in the public domain is overwhelming. the u. k. we can't speak for the u. s. book for the u. k. our own ability to examine the problem to understand the problem and to find a solution over 20 years. we've proven to fail that based on our strategic goals and the situation and the outcome that we currently have. it might be the case as cbs today records. we have to wait to the future to determine the success that that's arguably kicking the can down the road. the evidence in 2015 impala suggest to the u. k. military and the u. k. parliament failed, not only our own troops, our own country, but the guns that that's the evidence from the independent defense committee. so the telephone has still got a good hold on the, on the country territory. they've got a fair chunk of it, joe biden in bars. jones said there's nothing inevitable about taliban reclaiming the entire country. what's your opinion? i guess you could go back to a bite in the prime minister. clearly saying is the on the one hand, ethically it's right for us can to determine picture that that will hap

u. k. china, biggest info market. there's 200000 chinese students studying u. k u n. of our cities right now. paying 1700000000 pounds a year in tuition. it's probably the largest source of foreign revenue in k universe days. so they're extraordinary interconnectivity between china and all the european countries. very there is the indic electricity in china, just replaced, as you say, germany as britain's big, simple market. but you knew about the sanctions. what the businessman think watching this program, knowing the 3rd party sanctions of china now saying they're going to retaliate against us. trump era sanctions that have been continued through to biden, what is a business? what supposed to think, despite all the big figures of huge india connectivity about the future is this is, this is unstable. how can i be sure that governments here in europe, and i'm going to sanction me for some element in the supply chain? well, it's unfortunate, and i think it's like i said, you know, china is the largest rating power in the world today. and it's the largest trading nation

u. k. having left the european union, the u. k. really is depending on bilateral relationships and germany is of course, one of the most important strategic partners for the u. k. it's the 2nd law largest trading partners. but also when it comes to foreign and security policy, there are the interests very much aligned and we see that there is a joint declaration that was just that was just published between the u. k and, and germany in many other areas to that they have a non, please have announced that they want to cooperate when it comes to use exchange and also cultural exchange. so very much declaration of good will of continued cooperation between the 2 countries. that there was some friction that wasn't that, that but in the northern island, the protocol came up in questions when it was signed. boris johnson claimed it as a big victory, but it has been a huge source of friction between britain and the you it continuous. so the friction and i was just in bel falls and i have to say it's also a very big topic in northern ireland. the problem is that northern ireland is part of the united kingdom, but economically remains aligned to the european union. a

u. k, to try to pass responsibility for let me jump in here the demo that of the u. k. they say it will be a step forward in securing the u. k. the borders, if it's done to people who do not present themselves immediately upon entering illegally. there's nothing wrong with that. look what we're talking about people who are fleeing war and persecution, and they currently have very, very few safe routes to be able to claim asylum in the u. k. what this bill does is create a distinction between the ways in which people arrive in the u. k. so if somebody arrives through the through, through the channel or through other through other means that are not formal refugee protection routes, then they are treated completely differently. old stages, they're more likely to be imprisoned, more likely to be sent off shore. and if they're grunted refugee protection in the u. k, they will then be given a whole set of very different writes them from people who come through all the routes. but because you can come and have an impala set up for a stablished system to safe route, so the re refugee resettlement program, we're calling for that

u. k. and again, after 8 days of arriving within the u. k, if you test negative to day 2, you could have a test to release after day 5. so theoretically for tests which are expensive. and during the course of that, you have to stay at home and isolates for a maximum of 10 days. now that's causing real problems. first of all, for the travel industry who have been complaining bitterly about this, given the fact that the case vaccination program has been so widespread and successful. and then the 65 percent of u. k. adults are now fully vaccinated with both doses of the relevant random virus faxing. so there's been massive pressure on the government to actually start relaxing those restrictions. and that's what the transport secretary, the government minister responsible for this transport as announced today. what he said is that from july 19th, u k. residents who are returning to the u. k to england, specifically, will not have to isolate upon their return. they'll still have to test before they depart from spain or portugal. they will have to fill out the passenger locator forms and they will still have to test within 2 days of arriving back at home. but they will not crucially, they will not have to stay at home and unself isolate. and not that was seen as a major deterrent the transport secretary also said that it will not apply to international arrivals into the u. k. let's listen to that clarification. the change amounting to day will prioritize those vaccinated in the united kingdom. h

u. k is reported its highest number of new covert cases in more than 6 months just days before the friction that eased across england. u. k. government data shows close to $52000.00 new cases of corrosion of ours were reported on friday. want to time to developments in ethiopia, now the vice president of the em horror region is told al jazeera that additional forces have been deployed to his borders with tech ry. this is to counter to brian fighters who launched a new offensive this thank the if you're appealing, army has been fighting to grind regional forces since november al jazeera, obtained ragged government access to a disputed region in western. take ry from way catherine sawyer reports. i'm a special forces and the few p and federal police. at a checkpoint in my car, they're passing through require identification papers who owned a rare regional government guided trip, but event filming the forces and the militia called funnel was difficult. the town claimed by both the em. hara anti grand ethnic communities was under t guys administration before the war started in november. it's one of the was the atrocities happ

u. k. it's not just my opinion, the data shows that the u. k is coming out of this really well and breaks it with a deal. well don, hillary ford, which i'm sorry to train you just a little bit there, but thank you so much for your excellent invalid. i will touch it with you. right. 5 and finally, richard branson became the 1st billionaire to travel the outer space on sunday and a highly anticipated trip with the crew from his company, virgin galactic unity, 20 to reach an altitude of more than 50 miles above the earth's surface, where the crew experienced 4 minutes of weightlessness before they made their return. beautiful, stay for everybody. for anything such a suitable beautiful people all together. now it is no secret, but brands and b jeff bay those 2 space. but it appears that bases and his blue origin team were calling branson out on twitter by saying that outer space and doesn't really begin until it leaves 62 miles above the earth's surface leaping rather. oh my number. what i want to say that this launch was fascinating. it was so ama

u. k, government officials are saying it's more like 35 to 39000000000 euros. gosh, how surprising that both sides. once i was less a month, i want more. now what those numbers are, the u. k. government is saying is, those were internal numbers for the e. u, and they didn't take into account all that the u. k has already paid back into the you and the previous agreement. interestingly, theresa may or johnson the previous i saw, had made many agreements. she agreed to the dollar, the euro numbers that will be paid to the you were ball. as johnson came into office, he did not question those euro amounts. he did not question any of those financials . and in june the u. k. did pay 6800000000 euros already to the u. hillary. i mean, we have to look at this. there was big news over the weekend, the english football team. okay. well, what i couldn't quite close the deal, but quickly are we going to be able to of this issue about 30 seconds? i really think all i have to say to you rent is katasha coming out and trust me, it's telling me, but no, this is going to be an ongoing saga. it's not going away. just like any divorce. they're always scamp that are going to be picked and things are going to, there's always going to be issues, i think. but

u. k, one thing i should tell you about the movement in the u. k. it's not a black british movement. the reparations movement in the u. k. has always been upon african lisman because we have to slow numerically to just say reparation just about us. because it's upon african movement, it has the most potentially my view to actually inspire that global movement because we are not bounded by the shows of the british isles. the british empire was global. and we are connected with people who are colonized, who are not african people colonized from asia, people call it died from the yellow in the americas all over the world when we find the common cause. and that is, i think, the beauty of the movement in britain and we are working with why allies, who are giving the british government hell and your opinion, governments and governments around the world such as extinction, rebellion, who engage in forms of non violent direct action. many of us have been in re inspired because this has been part of our story, a civil disobedience and we know that unless we engage in civil disobedience, we are not going to get movement. so we are

u. k. the german chancellor, i just close cooperation despite the u. k. the departure from the european union and introduce the travel restrictions, the people arriving in germany, also on the program. last the u. s. a nato troops leave the main advice in a janice town. background is now empty after a 20 year commission again. tell me about the timeline islam. it comes to a close. italy found anything to cheer bass and they take on belgium in the euro's later, belgium addressing with fitness worries over to help players. bill preview that fortified. okay. ah i'm sure. gail, welcome to the program. i'm going to battle is in britain on her last official visit before stepping down. his german chancellor, after wide ranging talks with british prime minister about his johnson, the 2 ladies said their countries would work closely together despite britain's departure from the european union. chance also said she hopes people who've been fully vaccinated against corona virus will soon be able to travel to germany without quarantine. with me, mavita, we are continually reviewing our travel restrictions on i assume that in the foreseeable future, those that are fully vaccinated will be able to travel ag

u. k. soil ever sold the very exciting for us here in the u. k. and that will be a 3 day event. it's going to be really big festival and celebration of, of the space industry in the u. k. and to get the satellites up to space for the 1st time here because he's never been able to launch from the u. k. we build huge majority of the world small satellites here, but we can't watch them at the moment. so it is a big, big, big opportunity for the u. k. you've also recently signed to deal with sierra space, haven't you? how soon will that translate into a launch? sir? space is a very different system for us, so it will take off vertically somewhere else in the world, but it needs a horizontal spaceport to land that will run way to, to return from space. so that will be their return location where they'll be bringing amazing r and d and research back from microgravity that we can process here in the u. k. and we're looking at doing that in the next 5 or so years. they're due to have their 1st launch out and in colorado in 2023. so it's a few years away still, but it's something that we're working on the concept of operations for a moment at least find the m l u with them.

u. k is reported its highest number of new cova cases in more than 6 months. just days before the government plans to relax restrictions on the english pubs, restaurants and nightclubs. u. k. government data shows that we're close to 52000 new cases of karone of ours reported on friday, just to say earlier, u. k prime minister bars, johnson said, the worst of the pandemic would be behind the country if it's careful and lifting most restrictions would help the economy bounce back. well, dr. gabriel scally is visiting professor of public health university of brazil and a member of the independent scientific adviser group for emergencies is also one of the doctors is written a piece in the british medical journal warning. the u. k. government's reopening plan is reckless, joins as life now from bristol. so the u. k. county has the 3rd highest number of cases of any country in the world. i think honey, a brazil in indonesia have more. how much worse could it get when these restrictions are lifted? well, the number of cases is indeed huge. what is good is that the number of deaths isn't very high, but it is rising steadily in the last week. death written by 57 percent. and if that goes on, well then it could get very bad. and some of the, some of the modeling shows that this change that is bein

u. k. it is the latest sign of the growing crackdown on crypto markets worldwide. britain financial conduct authorities said saturday that finance markets limited the u. k. division of buying and is not permitted to undertake any regulated activity in the u. k. from june 30th the company which already offers brits crypto training through its website, must add this notice for u. k. users. due to the imposition of the requirement by the f d. a finance markets limited is not currently permitted to undertake any regulated activities without the prior written consent of the f b a. so joining me now to discuss is, boom, moscow can crypto analysts been swan r a been? let's start with the biggest question here. why did the u. k, take this step against finance right now? yeah, it seems like there's a, there's a couple of reasons for now. the regulator itself has not said why they did this. and by the way, i should mention that japan just did a similar thing as well. so, but you came to japan crack on a by. now, the reason for that though, it seems to be, if you look at kind of the timing of this as well as the statements that have been made, that it all coincide with new anti money laundering rules that have been established in the u. k. regardin
