u. k? well, i don't see it, sir. very promising is a pretty bleak outlook because even if these energy bills are frozen, although the situation shouldn't deteriorate further, it's going to mean that so many consumers will have a lot less money to spend. as that, they're going to be extremely cautious heading into the winter months. so certainly for some sectors like retail, hospitality, leisure, there are some pretty tough times ahead. i think looking at the broader market of call. so if you got higher energy prices that supports the energy johns, of course, and so there will be some support in terms of the stock market. but in terms of the overall economy, there are lots of question marks this trust that she wants to capt. cut taxes as well, so that, that add to concerns about u. k. boring costs as well because they've already been shooting up. i was on a street or from harvey of lance. man, thank you so much. now to some of the other global business stories making this, germany's volkswagen is preparing a partial p

well. so that's that add to concerns about u. k. bull wrinkles as well because they've already been shooting up. i was, was on a street or from hargrove's land found. thank you thought now to some of the other global business stories making news. germany's volkswagen is preparing a partial public offering of its portia brand plan for later this year. the listing is expected to bring and billions that volkswagen aims to invest in strengthening its production of electric cars. batteries and software croatia has begun requiring businesses to display prices in both coon, up the national currency and the euro. or the new rule is aimed at preparing for crash, a switch to the euro on january 1st. and flyers will also be required to display wages and both currencies. germany will keep 2 of its 3 nuclear plants running. it says they will be captain reserve over the winter as the country struggles to replace russian energy sources. berlin had planned to exit nuclear power at the end of the year. sticking on that topic all over europe. high e

u. k? well, after the boat is jonathan, his bees mildly north, the comic premier ship. things cannot get worse as far as people he brushes are concerned. having said that, british politics have the tendency to surprise us to have done so over the past few years, especially seems where you decided to leave you. so people are hoping for the best, but they're expecting the worse. ok, rod. now let's get into the details of it, of course, a long and costly to do list for les stress, the most pressing issue, as we heard domestically is of course, to help people cope with a huge rise in energy prices. the cost of living crisis. but this energy crisis, of course, is not just affecting britain, but the whole of europe given what's happening in ukraine right now. do you think britain, under less stress is better place to deal with it than other european countries? with the energy crisis that remains to be seen. again, we won't know until tomorrow. some specifics. what is trust is going to come up with. i think what we can say some confidence is this is the immediate ass around th

u. k. well, we unfortunately see the government in the u. k. also drifting more and more towards off to live them by attracting public media. the see the the b, b, c. by attacking independent just to by high level here and this sort of development. so i think georgia maloney is still a different category, but we are seeing worrying development also what can concerning freedom of press in the u. k. so i don't think they will be allies in this sense. i hope not. but it all together was right. we populate this. i think we have to have not. we've been talking very much in general terms, but the european union right now is dealing with a war next door in ukraine and with a serious energy crisis. how do you see this change of government coming up in italy affecting those situations? first of all, the war and you saying it is interesting that the 3 parties who, who created this whole ition 2 of those leaders for me are, are known to be cooking fanboys. while georgia maloney is more in the ukranian side. so that will be interesting to watch how italy w

u. k. well is trust is tip to when i have a rival richey soon act. as the governing conservatives choose a new leader. the winner will inherit an economy in crisis and a population struggling under the rising cost of living. germany an israel, a ma king 5 decade since the munich olympics, massa chem, 50 years ago, 11 israeli team members died after palestinian militants stormed their compound in the olympic village. relatives of the victims of the terror attack have gathered for a commemorative ceremony in munich for various st. cultural minister, called the massacre an attack on the entire free western world. he also said germany had failed to protect the israelis and has learned from its mistake. let's take a look now at, at the events back in, on september 5th, 1972 ah, munich, 1972. by hosting the summer olympics, germany wanted to show the world that it was a cheerful, colorful, cosmopolitan country. and that it had overcome the shadows of its nazi past. but then a shock, palestinian militants took control of the israeli athletes residence in th

u. k. well, catholics historically favor iris re unification. the united nation says it's concerned about a cholera outbreak and syria possibly linked to the euphrates river. world health organization has reported 39 deaths in the past 3 weeks, or bird. my, me as this report. the freight is written. it's an archery cutting across syria and lifeline. the millions of people, but also the thought of a cholera outbreak. mulberry la melissa. ha, mia, our laboratories and those of the world health organization confirmed the presence of vibrato. cholera which causes cholera in the euphrates river as a result of the euphrates receding and the huge decrease in water levels. many areas turned into swamps. the world health organization says a recent drought to cause no river levels, which coupled with pollution and sewage, is being blamed for an outbreak that caused fatalities and thousands of infections . it says drinking water is contaminated and copyright cation is spreading the disease. cholera is caused by bacteria found and contaminated food and wate

how well does the u. k, do this as it where or how well does the role family really, korea graph this. i mean, then you have to be careful not to make you look to career growth, does it because the public wants to feel that it's a natural thing don't yeah, i mean, it is very well planned and how do they do it? mainly by the history books, but by the history books with some slight amendment checking for the times, changing things, cutting things that the edges and remembering what, what they didn't have to worry about in 1952 so much the coronation was televised when the best big events, 953 that was televised, but didn't have to worry about camera angles and pesky tv crews like us. they need to make sure this is seen all around the world. and so that has to be thought about . and so that's where i think some of the i don't know the sort call going back, but certainly not got king charles and he's i think the car is simply now returning to bucking and part of suggesting to me that he is staying in carmen's h

u. k to the queen's death. um, well i think as i said, it was a shock and sadness very beginning. i think as i left the u. k. i at edinburgh airport yesterday. i tried to speak to as many people i can could from different ages and, and there was turning into this enormous gratitude for what she did in her life and how she, how she was the glue of the country pianist this gratitude, thankfulness i, i think this is also why bergen's just said about, they're expecting 20000000 people to want, whether they will get to want to file past the the coffin and this is unprecedented them. it's unbelievable to think of that amount of people. and it is this a gratitude, respect, these old fashioned hats. i keep saying, you know that that has been unbelievable for 70 years. she is never faltered robin, can you tell me more about this stretch of road where the coffins now being brought along? you've just come back from scotland, haven't you? i believe the the coffin is making its way from hollywood house palace to san jose cathedral along this famous royal. this royal mile through central edinbur

u. k. therefore, reacting okay, well, so hold on. so this was david mouth speaking the head of the world bank, and he, he mentioned europe specifically singled out europe, not just the u. k. y, and the u. k. singled out europe for a, an increased risk of recession. that you saying you don't see it that way? well, i think we have people like malpass talking up a recession. we're going to have that happen because science recessions are largely in my view, psychological events in the sense that i, if i am an employer and your employer. i start if i think you're going to, i think your thing is recession coming. i believe you're going to start firing your your workers, who are my customers. and in anticipation of that i start firing my workers who are your customers and then the entire thing in meltdown because of self showing prophecies here. remember? or is it all you don't wanna hear? it appears here themselves. when a chuckle, office and dirty train and fear can be contagious and modern economies. and i think if you look at the recessi

u. k as well has slapped additional sanctions on what they describe as russians having been involved in organizing and implementing this. what they say is an illegal referendum. adalia also said interestingly, that ukrainians found to have taken part in this referendum, certainly organizing it, faced trees and charges and outs of 5 years in jail. he also said that in no way was ukrainians him updated by russia's nuclear threats. we know that said president putin made a veil to straight about potentially using nuclear weapons. he said that this makes absolutely no difference to ukraine's policy and strategy. they would continue to push forward to d, occupying his words, all of russian occupied territory, the territory that russia controls on, on that front, some interesting lines coming out overnight about fighting in the east most particularly around a very strategic town called lea man. that is a just north of the town of the slough. janski's. huge strategic importance visit is a massive rail hub. very heavy fighting. we understand going on around lea. man, there are also reports that

u. k, as well as the commonwealth countries he described was a happy, glorious, and steadfast. and he said she truly deserved the term majestic. and he's what he had the site during that national tv address this morning. with the passing of queen elizabeth, the 2nd and historic ryan and a long lost devoted to duty, family fight and service has come to an end. this is a morning of sadness for the world, for the commonwealth and all extravagance. it is the day of profound sadness and grief for the royal family who had lost her beloved mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. the person who for so long was the greatest in his strength . a strategy and hearts go out to the people of the united kingdom who mourned to die. knowing that will failed. i have lost part of what makes the nation how strongly is i constituted. want to keep the head of the state is the queen that she doesn't want to quit, didn't play a day today, role in the running of the country and said she delegated the executive pals to her representative and strategy. of course that we got in the general at the mome

well, the u. k. imports more than half of its food, so the cost of everything from apples to coffee will go up. the rise will be especially notable in goods traded in us dollars like oil and gas, lower income fallon families will be the hardest hit with their earnings having to stretch even further with winter approaching. heating costs are another concern. brings money also won't go as far as if they travel to the u. s. all 2 countries using the dollar for taurus the drop in the pound means it will be cheaper to visit the u. k. july. she looks like this is getting worse and worse and worse poor right now they're on lower incomes. they're struggling initially with the heating and all their bills. everything is going up. why would they be cutting it for the people in the higher income wreckage ridiculous? london is getting worse, things getting worse, to be honest. you could argue that it's a good strategy because a tract sort of business is to come in or set up to establish reason in london. so to t

u. k. given what's going on, economic lee still makes sense. well, i think it was a u. k. then it probably wouldn't be worth it, but the fact is, the demons does not least, for example, in the amount of free publicity, a coverage is favorable to our so, you know, he would have to ask, who is the king prince ruler of fine? and i to find anyone in the world who even though i. ready you find anyone who knows anything about it. so you know, they may not be paying, you know, getting money back. whereas here in the u. k, all morning he is making is one of the world's leading countries. and for the money spent got a great the number to. how mindful don't you think king charles is of the criticism, but the royal family gets as far as that expenditure is concerned. do you think that he will continue with this, this desire to, to be seen at least, to be slipping down? are we going to see more royals expected to pay that way? perhaps by, by getting proper jobs? well, one cannot do. it is a proper job. it rose to a great deal of good for charity, for institutions in the u. k. and the

u. k. is economic fundamentals are found, they say, and the bank of england is taking action to calm the situation. well, here from the number to the treasury, andrew griffith and then come back to you. we've got a very, we've got a very strong balance sheet. the u. k has the 2nd lowest debt to g d p ratio in the g 7. the bank is to say is taken the timely action that it does. it's, it's its job to regulate financial markets. and then what the government's got to do is to provide people with that confidence a really big interventions to help every single household with the cost of energy. if we hadn't done that and just think about what the implications would be in terms of people's confidence and their cost of living this winter. so philip, him and the government's due to flash out the details of their plan in november. just explain to us what happens then and why they're waiting so long. well, they're waiting so long because they haven't worked out what they gonna do. they have a plan to try and generate more growth with even more trucks, trucks. and they now let's see about how to do that because the

cost of living crisis as well, the costs that have have in having ramifications in the u. k as well. so to tackle this and to be seen to be a strong force in a post breck, that country is really very important for the prime minister to project that the u . k. is firmly on the side of ukraine and any show weakness that is being really put by a putin really has to be counted. and the military intelligence is also saying that this is really going to be an undermining of his own message to the people. and i think that's what they're going to be concentrating on right now. that in a sense, put in what he is doing, he is admitting a failure in his own war. so any things breaking down for us on gay, go live for us in london. thank you. those getting the call are, are expected to have military experience. at the beginning of the year, russia had about $900000.00 active troops. but last month, president put in order that number to be increased to 1150000. unless say 190000 trips to a party most goes initial invasion, including russian bank militias and security forces already in don'

well enough . that news has it traveled fast or sounds like a lot of cause for concern. i wonder if we can get some reaction from the public in the u. k. hey, lisa, i get well soon. i wish she recovers and i hold the family all that they navigate through this difficult period together, united the find peace in whatever happened. she's it, i'm very good hale and i just wish you and obeys in pain you know, carry on through what she's very and when she enjoys doing it. she's, she's been the queen as long as i've been alive. she's being the queen, as long as my parents have been alive. so she's really a very, very important part of the fabric. you know, it's going to be terrible. i was very sad. i think she's a very special queen. i think everybody around the world knows her and even in israel, and i wish for her health and hopefully she'll always be there. i hope she, well, she recovers care well soon. it's lovely. well wish as a poor queen elizabeth corley, when i come back to you, what have people you've been talking to said yeah, or there are just big crowds, your gallery in front of buckingham powers. although of course, most people

u. k. from abroad as well, who as he, they want to come and be part of this moment of history as the casket, making its way down the mouth. again, the procession being led by king charles queen's eldest son, now controls the 3rd with his 3 siblings, princess anne, prince andrew, and prince edward. and then all said king charles as 2 sons, prince william and prince harry also worked walking in that procession window last thursday. the age of 96, spite her age it was quite unexpected. and in these last days as being a real national morning, people have come together. she was brought from balmoral castle in scotland where she died to edinburgh, where again thousands of people lined the streets to pay their respects in a very moving moment when her children afford children stood god around her coffin in the cathedral in edinburgh as people members of the public file true to say their good byes. she was then flown down to london. they spent last night in buckingham palace amendment for the royal family to be together for the last time to learn more the loss of their mother, that grandmother thei

u. k. to the queen's death? i well, i think as i said it was a shock and sadness very beginning. i think as i left the u. k. i at edinburgh airport yesterday. i tried to speak to as many people i can could from different ages and, and there was turning into this enormous gratitude for what she did in her life and how she, how she was the glue of the country's pianist. this gratitude, thankfulness. i, i think this is also why berg, it's just said about, they're expecting 20000000 people to want, whether they will get to want to file past the, the coffin and this is unprecedented. i mean, it's unbelievable to think of that amount of people. and i'm, it is this a gratitude, respect, these old fashioned hats. i keep saying, you know, that that has been unbelievable for.

u. s. prison on drug charges. well, contract mot. facts had been detained in afghanistan since early 2020 ah, the u. k. and the world who bid farewell to queen is with the 2nd to the states funeral there by royalty, presidents and prime ministers. 70 rolled reign was the longest in british history . and he's continues here and i'll just hear that's after catching the cost. this was a young woman, the likes of which we have never seen. this is important. this is historic. from breaking down the headlines to exposing the power is attempting to silence reporting. we're seeing media freedom being threatened and attacked is basically criminalizing journalism. the listening post doesn't cover the news. it covers the way the news is covered. people have no idea what the source of use is. that is the game that rolled, and that for all god, for the absolute white on al jazeera, ah, [000:00:00;00] with hello, i'm adrian finnegan. this is counting the cost on out here. if you look at the world of business and economics this week, king charles the 3rd exceeds the throne as the u. k. faces of cost of living crisis

u. k. since 1965. can you talk us through the day a little well, yes, it's called possibly the biggest ceremony ever for the u. k. i mean, in central london, we've had 4 days. we've had cried. people have laid flowers and the cogs 3 a quarter and off. i am out at westminster abbey. well, the funeral will take place in a few hours and it's very hard to get to your police and locate a very old dignity run because today really is the big day and a few hours the ceremony will begin. the coffin will be carried in a solem profession to westminster of a where i am and it will be a funeral service. last thing about an hour, 2000 people have been invited by 2000 people, including world leaders, and then that will be a procession through central london weather and will be transported then afterwards to when, where they will be in other small to service. and then the court coffin will be lowered into the royal gold and the crown will have to be removed before that. now as you mentioned, there will be hundreds of foreign royal's and world leaders in london today attending the event when yes, president biden, of cou

but it may well have rendered some u k pension funds insolvent, and that may well of how to knock on effect of the assets. so there is some concern that the, unless the u. k. situation is stable because london financial market is so important . there may be knock on effects and they're a little bit unpredictable as little as we learned in 2000 night. not entirely clear what assets of being traded were. so the book, as far as the i'm, ethics is concerned. this needs to be stabilized then quickly. they wanted to take action and arguably the issue is being they've taken to mark jackson, they took action to stabilize energy prices, which were looking like they could, you know, go incredibly high level people couldn't afford. but at the same time, they pushed through some fiscal changes, and those have been controversial. those looks set to deepen the current account deficit, which was already a little bit worrying. and i think that was seen is not particularly credible by the market. so there is more than one thing going on here as the backdrop of a few years of political instability. so

u. k. this year. well, let's now cross alive to scott ritter fuller, us marine cool intelligence officer. thanks for joining us here on auto this morning. now, both the west on russia blaming each other for the sabotage who's to blame of it, who's likelihood like piece of, of done this. i think in this case we just go to the one party you actually made a confession. that's the united states president joe biden february, 8th of this year, stating very clearly that if russia were to send forces into ukraine, that united states would shut down the north stream to pipeline. and when asked why he could do, how we could do that, it wasn't as a german now, et cetera. he said, we'll shut it down. it appears that joe biden is, in this case, at least a man of his word. there's no other party that you know that a would have the political clout to carry this out and be, have the incentive, you know, the united states was confronted with the fact that the german people were beginning to rebel against the u. s. dictated policies that were being implemented by the german government regarding your russia

well, in contrast to what you heard from quasi quad saying that the labor party has, perhaps on surprisingly had lost to say about what the chancellor under u. k. government is doing well with its fiscal policy. i'm essentially, they have been scathing, all the kind of trickle down economics that the u. k. government seems to be pursuing at the moment. it's going to cost in the region all $45000000000.00 pounds in exchange money. that's about $45000000000.00, while not quite is about $48000000000.00, but you can see is the pound and the dollar come closer to parity. the difference between the 2 is negligible, and the labor party, frankly, doesn't agree with the way that the government is put in this forward. and by coincidence, we had a keynote speech today by quasi plotting opposite number. rachel reeves, she'd really laid into the chancellor's policy. that's here, a clip from that sterling is down. that means higher prices, as the costs of imports rise, the cost of government borrowing is up. that means more taxpayers, money will go into paying the interest on, on government debt and didn't turn. that means the cost of boring for working peo

u. k. given what's going on, economic lee still makes sense. well, i think if it wasn't demonstrate you were to pay, then it probably wouldn't be with does not least, for example, in the amount of free publicity, a coverage is favorable to us. so, you know, he would go around the world and ask, who is the king prince ruler of fine. and i to find anyone in the world who, even though i was in your mind, anyone who knows anything about it. so, you know, they may not be paying, you know, getting money back. whereas here in the u. k. all morning, he is making as one of the world's leading countries and for the money spent. got a great number. how mindful, don't you think king charles is of the criticism, but the royal family gets as far as it's expenditure is concerned. do you think that he will continue with this, this desire to, to be seen at least to be slipping down? are we going to see more royals expected to pay that way? perhaps by, by getting proper jobs? well, it is a proper job is that the, the roles do a great deal of good for charity, for ins

u. k. where vendors are doing well, take a look. ah, the line to get into westminster hall is expected to be many kilometers long as hundreds of thousands try to get a glimpse of the queen's coffin. and his brits bid farewell to the popular monarch . they are also spending money on memorabilia and souvenirs to remember her by at the cool of britannia store. coffee mugs and sweater spear the queen's portrait and a slogan, gone but not forgotten or slid the monks with fish like 4 or, you know, hot and gone. but not forgotten, that's been really popular. and here, people by and a lot especially that these had, we have it and stores are already looking to the future. but it might take a few days to get king charles memorabilia. you haven't planned any t shirts or clothing yet, but hopefully the mocks will come from thursday for king charles. yes, souvenir. saw also in high demand in places far from the u. k. like in hong kong, which was ruled by britain until being handed over to china in 1997 bryan on owns house of men and memorabilia.

u. k. b. bad, well, climate change out before front of countries crowd. he says he weighs well. we know when it comes to pressure the negotiation table. so i'm hopeful that change will start to half now much more quickly. and yeah, what about you and also, why are we acting foster? and it's pretty evident that this is soon going to put all of humanities, other problems into the shade. we're not acting faster in part because this is a very, a very tough problem to tackle. but that's also a legacy of decades of misinformation campaigns that were targeted to do exactly that to delay action. i think we are now kind of on a personal level around the world, seeing the impacts of climate change so vividly that it feels much more real to people. and meanwhile, we have, we have the technology and renewable energy cost competitive. now we actually have the ability to start, i think making much faster change happen. one thing i want to say as a parting thought, you know, the study shines a light on da damage. we've already done suggesting that we are committed to losing 3 percent of the gr

u. k. this year. well, meantime i, russia will hold an emergency meeting of the un security council that's in the coming hours regarding the alleged sabotage on the north stream pipelines. and we spoke with former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter. he believes that deleted tweet of the form of polish foreign minister . was ultimately saying the truth. i don't think sikorsky said in on any meetings, i don't think so. of course, yet any insider knowledge, i think of course you're just stating the obvious with the pipeline was blown up. he knew it was the united states. i think in this case we just go to the one party . you actually made a confession. that's the united states president joe biden february, 8th of this year, stating very clearly that if russia were to send forces into ukraine, that united states would shut down the north stream to pipeline. and when asked why he could do, how we could do that, it wasn't as a german allied cetera. he said, we'll shut it down. it appears that joe

u. k. these days? well, the pound or the bag giving the will desperately trying to put up interest rates in an idea of shoring up the pound and curbing inflation, which i'll give you won't be as of a bigger, bigger problem. but basically thousands will die because of the cold. and because even though this trust is put into action, a subsidy to fossil fuel companies, prices are still 100 percent, nearly up on what they were even with the cap in energy rates than they were before . russia moved to responding to the publications from nato, and there's going to be mass strike extra invalid. so britain may affect the re closed down when it comes to work up. are this winter journalist option retents? the always a pleasure. thanks very much. and i thank you for joining us there. we're not international. we don't know where the money goes. well, that's been the frank admission from global affairs, canada government department that hands out the countries aid after it was caused by a conservative m. p. about how its

u. k and china? well, it's a relationship. that's very complicated, complicated, of course, because of differences over hong kong and the situation in sion. janet and because the queen, after all, had been the sovereign, the ruler of the united kingdom, a country the china has fallen out with very badly during the last few years. i think that's possibly why it took some hours several hours before china's leader finally issued a statement. remember, other world leaders had been very quick to issue statements, including of course, president biden. you'd expect him to do that. but the indian prime minister was also very quick and issuing statement as well. let me putin of russia, but it was only sort of mid morning news. china time that we finally got a statement from the chinese government. it's not clear where the president cheating thing is going to sign the book of condolence at the british embassy in beijing as president biden has done at the british embassy in washington. now, president shooting thing, of course he had met

well. not just the u. k. and if you needed any proof of just how popular the queen was here, just look at germany's biggest daily builds newspapers today. they have 12 pages dedicated to her life. they have literally very little else, a bit of sports, perhaps. and, but this stretches across the entire population that many people say, i'm not necessarily in favor of the monarchy as a system at such. but i do respect and admire queen elizabeth because of her dedication to her role that she fulfilled. and because of course, also of the special role that she gave germany throughout her life, she was a true friend of germany and considered one. and this is something that people truly appreciate. here. they flocked to the british embassy when the news broke late last night, but also politicians. we heard chancello shots. we've also heard from the president when fido stein my are they thanked queen elizabeth for the special role and for reaching out to the former enemy, germany after the 2nd world war. he might be a

u. k. why is that even on the i m f radar? well, the elements has been criticizing most european countries without meaning them for the bailouts that they've been pushing through over the last 6 months from germany . that doesn't like anything that they've been doing because they think they're to blunder. just spraying money around on the rich and poor to try and get through this energy process and you know, different what you have done as really excited the math really got line. great is because we've added on top of so we've not just have an emergency energy price cap, which is trusting a 150000000000. we've added on top tax cuts, which will be recovery, which will go on forever. so that's really the u. k is also part of a reserve currencies. so the year i was a euro as a reserve currency, the dollar, the n and sterling is as well. so now we're one of the reserve company currencies of this, well, the all messing about suddenly causing chaos. and the next thing, so this is a moment in history when the last and i need is a country

u. k. bells or at churches will be ringing at this moment as well to mark her passing huge significance, of course, because she was on the throne for 70 years, 7 decades. and although this a will have been planned for many decades, the passing of queen elizabeth the 2nd it is obviously a very somber moment. and i think really reflects the fact that she made such and such an amazing impact on the u. k. over her 70 years. on the throne and of course across the globe. so at the moment we, these bells are still ringing and then we will, there will be other events as well. for example, there will be an event at hyde park, a gun salute hyde park is the big part right in the center of london. so there will be a gun salute in memory of the queen and other events that will be happening throughout the day. now you mentioned, of course, the 70 years the longest, raining monarch, queen elizabeth, just to take walk us through a little bit reminders through some of the, the high points of her rain. well, she came to the throne in 1952 when britain still had an empire and oversee she, she passed away w
