u. k. has said that it is ready to retaliate. do you believe that if this drags on the u. k, would take retaliatory measures and if so, what could those measures look like? well, i think the british government is, is very key not to specify what they might be. the british government doesn't want to make this problem see much more serious. and it actually is for the french and peter, and suggestive already trying to cut off electricity. not only to the channels, those are 2 mainland tv where they have it and to connect to it also threatened to go so on customs, texas. they threatened benson, shell fishing boats from, from your k boats known is this, these all very strong threats and out of all proportion to the problem as it exists . so i think the u. k. government would have to respond in some ways, but obviously phones will respond as well. or if it go slower, tally on the, on, try, getting it to, to friends of companies will merely go elsewhere. go, go to rotterdam at work. and campbell lloyd, i think right through the friendship process would be try to avoid things to be trying

u. k. would be at the back of the queue back of the line expects it went through. so the u. k. a u. s. have not finalize the trade deal. however, when boards johnson was here just a week ago, he did manage to make sure that all of the terrorists were listed on scotch whisky whiskey. there is now british beef being imported and all the restrictions on british lamb. so this is an immense amount of trade going back and forth. i think let's trust is sensible. what she's doing is she is lowering expectations and not putting pressure on the u. s. to finalize that deal, whilst pivoting to the rest of the world, particularly the asia pacific region, all i know is you gotta make sure there's no tariffs on scotch whiskey that's for sure, hillary forward. thank you so much for pleasure. planing the story for us, and that's it for this time you can catch boom bus on demand on the portable tv app available on smartphones and tablets. you google play in the apple app store by searching a portable tv. we'll see you next time on. boone bus, ah imagine picking up a future textbook on the early years of

would not agree to make changes to fix the issues with trade in northern ireland. david frost, the you case chief braxton negotiators spoke about the issue at a gathering a, b, u. k is governing conservative party so we worried right from the start to the price called would not take the strain if not handle sensitively. as it has turned out, we were right. the arrangements have become, have begun to come apart even more quickly than we feared. if we can agree something better as i would like us to do, we can go back to where we wanted to be an independent britson with friendly relations with the you based on free trade. though we cannot wait forever without an agreed solution soon. we will need to act using the article 16 safeguard mechanism for its part the use as triggering article 16 would be, quote, extremely unhelpful. for more on this, let's bring in it for a member of the british american business association. always a pleasure to have you on hillary. okay. first major question here. what happens if they trigger article 16? well, pleasure to be back with you again, brent. article 16 is viewed by the you. yes. to be somewhat drastic and to be exacerbating a

u. k. waters would remain sovereign to the u. k. except for those fishermen give. i am given licenses and going back to the northern ireland protocol, which we started this whole conversation, this whole segment with, to say, you know, we're getting deeper into this. it doesn't seem like there's necessarily an agreement being made. other they said that, you know, conversations were fruitful if you will. yeah. i mean, is it looking more like we're going to have this problem go into the holiday season and actually affect the, the thanksgiving with no turkey or the house with her. so thanks have a good i got i got to get you about. yeah, yeah, i know, but there was a very big holiday season, a holiday season. the christmas season avenue. okay. couple of things you write on this, the article 16 has been threatened. i think what has happened is that the e u has come back and they have dropped about 80 percent of the regulations in terms of the checks on goods. that was what was causing a bottleneck. what has happened is you've had a bottleneck. we talked about the sausa

u. k. or potentially in america, or even as you say, in australia, you would live there in vienna. you are watching the hearing through a special live stream. now let's cross over to london outside the u. k. high court ortiz at shot, it was dashed, he's still the shadow. you've had a busy day with lots of a song, just support his way you want out today. tell us about how it was today. i know you were speaking to friends and family of julian assange, people outside of the royal court of justice have been very vocal who really 48 hours now in defense of a jew linux. it's not just the lawyers that a furious with washington, but people here on the streets as well, particularly in regards to the fact that the united states is complete. this credit thing, i just saw just psychiatric evaluations done assessments and we made secretary and she said to me earlier today and he said that they're still living in some high that justice and will be sad on the medical ground. common sense and justice seems to be often far away. so i have to retain a certain level of skepticism, lawrence in the syst

u. k. that would be supply issues in the lead up to christmas. that with energy that's with petro, that's also with products in stores. and now french fishermen the same. you know, what, if you do not a all fishing licenses, we are going to block the ports. we'll make sure that they'll be no imports and no exports between europe and the u. k, which really could add to, boris johnson was and those are threats that the u. k. should also take pretty seriously, given that we know that the french one, they like to protest and to they have already been tense stand offs in the last year over this issue over fishing licenses. now the u. k, for its part says look, we've done nothing wrong. in fact, we're keeping to our commitments and we're keeping the agreement over fishing licenses. we have granted 98 percent of the license applications from e u boats to fish in our waters. so we do not accept that we are not a biden by traded cooperation agreement. we have been extremely generous and the french folks in, in, on a small category of boats and claim. and

u. k. authorities would waste no time presenting it. what is interesting as to why this is come out now isn't quite clear. we have no evidence because if there hadn't been, let's face it. if there was hard evidence that russia had actually stolen or russia, russian agent, russian super asian in the lab. does it take no way to walk that been evidence based then that would have been presented? that would certainly be presented to the press conference if there was a smoking gun, so to speak. there hasn't been to that. we would conclude that there isn't any evidence. so why are they doing this for? i started this one, i think there was a correlation between these anti russian stories coming out. and when public opinion is beginning to turn against the government power to bring people who have enough all the restrictions, it, some parts of the page still going on. they don't want another locked down. they don't feel as if they're being told the truth about what's been going on. that could explain why this precise moment when people are getti

u. k. authorities would waste no time presenting it. what i see interesting as to why this is tom out now isn't quite clear. we have no evidence because if they had the next face it, if there was hard evidence that russia had actually stone and i was super rushed, super russian agents, russian senior agent in the lab. it's a taken away photograph document that been evidence of this. then that would have been presented that would certainly be presented in a press conference. if that was a smoking gun, so to speak, there hasn't been to that full. we would conclude that there isn't any evidence to why they do in this for i've started this wrong one. i think there is a correlation between these anti russian stories coming out. and when public opinion is beginning to turn against the governing authorities in britain. ringback people have had enough all the restrictions in it, some parts you catch still going on they, they don't want another look down. they, they don't feel as if they're being told a truth about what's been going on. that cou

u. k, i mean, i don't think you guys wouldn't stay here. i don't think he necessarily has any standing in the u. k. he would have to go somewhere else, i guess, to the whole options that he goes to a stranger, because that's where he has citizenship. as things son, there's nothing to stop the 5 digit ministration starting extradition proceedings again and join to actually from australia. this then becomes a question. so for the buys miss ministration is like, do you really want to continue with this? no matter what it says about your belief in preston, the preston is also full straight school to me all day getting. so they entertain such a threat from the united states. so it moves, sad very much from law and into policy. i think green reforms and the energy supply crisis is some of the big questions looking to be on the raise your ration comic forum. the 3 day event gathers to get a big hit is from the business world and beyond. and is underway in northern italy's verona with more details on what's been already set up before him. he is our correspondence shot at the sky. what was an electric atmosphere her

u. k. government? no. it, would it be reasonable to say a, for either of these have gone ahead than the delegates to call 20 sex glasgow this weekend would be get on a bus and, and tuning to see these wondrous carbon capture projects. what, what is i once extent of the, the missed opportunity over these last 15 years? i think the, you case had 4 cycles, 4 sets of opportunity, at least in this. so once it's v p projects you mentioned in 2005 again with the long janet project, 2007 cycling back. trying again in 2015 with a project around peter head, which is a pass station in northeast scotland. and again, most recently are with a project based around industry is the so called acorn projects in scotland. and each time that has been done, they design brief has been very fully achieved house with the acre project. we know that we've got full marks in most of the, in all of the categories i think are we've got the most deliverable project we've got the shalise cost project. we've got the best skills, we can explain what

u. k. government, they would themselves extinction rebellion or exile for sure. i'm doing the right amount because they what, outside the system, engaging in bold, non violent acts of civil disobedience. their strategy is to create headline grabbing protest designed to maximize public exposure. they believe this will gain them a mass following and force real change. in just 6 months, they have already expanded into 15 countries to spread across full continent. i met their london headquarters on the day of one of their most extreme actions, yet in a protest day, a cooling ballade of all children exile plant, still 500 meters of fake blood on downing street office and residents of the british prime minister. hi k. and i live in history, nice me one of x i was co founders is clare tiro, when the idea of the blood of our children, we were already suffering a genocide because of the impacts of pollution. so we're trying of this action to get people to understand that it's that it kills people and that it kills people. now it's already killing people. it's not like som

u. k. it's it says it would be an error election of duty if the u. k. was not in a position to strike back against these rogue states. plus it's been on this trajectory for some time now. in fact, the national cyber force has been in operation. it was established since at least november of 2020. but what we do know is in the past few months now in 2021, a british officials have been hinting at who these hostile states really are. namely russia and china. russia has combined military and no military means to alter the map, attempting to change the balance of power and undermining the cohesion of all societies through disinformation, russia, and china, and gaining a decisive advantage in inflammation h military technologies. now all of this was discussed earlier in the year in the government's integrated review, which provides a strategic threat assessment. the main takeaway really was a movement away from the traditional forms of wool fam, like soldiers and tanks and guns on a shift towards cybersecurity and technology. now at the top of that threat, ass

u. k. at the moment, and would you say that things are improving? well, put it this way as 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 that the minute tree has now been deployed and dropped it in to try and get the fuel to the petrol stations. now it all comes off the days of the government arming and oring whether or not the government thought that the army was really needed to help alleviate this a crisis. obviously, it's finally conceded, but still argues that the country is stabilizing, and the petro situation is getting better, i think, is also really important. we can actually call in the military at a time like this full, that extra support to give that confidence and have this so. so as a misha, that's there as a precaution, because as i say, the situation is stabilizing. no one's going to pretend

u. k. doesn't grant more licenses to french fishermen in u. k. waters. the british government says any sanctions would be met with the appropriate retaliation. it is very disappointing to see the comments that came from france yesterday. we believe these are disappointing and disproportionate and not what we'd expect from a close ally and partner the measures being threatened. do not appear to be compatible with the trade in co operation agreement or wider international law. and if carried through will be met with an appropriate and calibrated response. we don't have so it's time for us to get respect. i stand by the facts, we issued threats and pursued dialogue until now, since allowed our fishermen to have a bit of a half of the fishing licenses, we have to also see the glass half full, but that's not enough and not acceptable at all. so now we need to speak the language of strength. since that seems to be the only thing the british government understands lat, sabrina andrew seventies. joining us from london, so breaks that was back in january. andrew, why? the escalation now? because fishing has be

one london in turn is warning that france has ultimatum would violate the e u u k. trade and cooperation agreement and wider international law. well, let's try and get a grip on this. mike hooker, who's a former british m e p, and former fishery spokesman of the u. k. independence body joining us here live on our team to national. thank you so much for coming on. what do you make of, frances, ultimate, to britain, a as a bid to get more licenses? is it a proportionate measure? do you think so? no, i don't. i think it's a once again, it's, we say that the, the french book, using volleyball tactics. if remember, last year there was a shock in our, in our vessel over the channel, or do they really want to get into a trade well with, with the camera. and if you look at the figures on. busy asperger's and 2020 from a tread surplus of 5600000000 pounds. if you look at joint j. j 9700000 bottles of con. yeah. was sold in the okay. 60000 people, french, people work in the, in the con your industry do, they're really wants to get into, into a trade war of a fishing with this country. i think what

but that would be good news for business people all over old island, but no, as far as david frost, the u. k. a bricks, it minister is concerned. he's basically given the government lonnie wants to tear up the northern orland protocol together or replace it with something that really is written by the u. k. in terms of getting rid of the oversight of european judges, the european court of justice, which underwrites the whole over the island protocol. now he wants that he wants to get into independent arbiter and all of that is really good. a red line of fuzzy. his concern, so we're looking at a possible major a rift between the u, the u. k. this time around for further on this, let's talk to amanda ferguson. a political analyst. ah, what is your read on this situation? all we, these negotiations go to be starting soon. we're going to hear from you later on. exactly what they're offering. what do you make of it? so i think the whatever and the, the commission was going to bring forward to dad. the u. k was always going to reject that has not been enough. we knew the mouse after which it indic

u. k. bid to host the 2030 world cup. i don't think it's nonsense to suggest that would be a good case having the well cup in the u. k. in england and 20 or 30, we're working with the government relation to the pitfall 2030, which, which showed your the euro's yet disappointed by somebody events outside of the funnel on that day. but actually look at the whole month. i would argue that all the host cities of the games and on the way the best and monday nights, premier league, our stall found to draw with virtually the last cake of the game against crystal palace. much of the talk pre game was about arsenal legend, patrick vieira, going back to his former club as the palace manager, our slow took an early lead. thanks to the quick reflexes appear. emerick obama yak crystal palace drew level shortly after the break, and then hit the leave in the 73rd minute. thanks to ubs and edward, and on the verge of full time whistle arsenal salvage. to draw a courtesy of alexander lockers. that after 8 games, the gunners are 12 on the table, 8 points behind leaders. chelsea the host of next years football world cab has announced a

u. k. doesn't grant more licenses to french fishermen in u. k. waters, the british government says any sanction would be met with the appropriate retaliation. why don't you feel it's time for us to get respect to i stand by the facts. we issue threats and pursued dialogue until now. since allowed l fishermen to have a bit of a half of the fishing licenses, we have to also see the glass half full, but that's not enough and not acceptable at all. so now we need to speak the language of strength. since that seems to be the only thing the british government understands open. okay, let's go live to andrew simmons, his covering the story in london. hello there, andrew. what exactly has been happening and why? well, on the ground, not a great deal is happening, but on the, in the background, something much bigger is escalating and that's all to do with the post bricks at tray deal with france over fishing, a one british trula was seized by french, maritime police, and guided into the porter law of a judicial authorities then took over. apparently it is all about a fishing license, but the scottish owners of
