Including this radio for cease to respect International Humanitarian little earlier in the week. The british Prime Minister receives so your next spoke at a synagogue in north london ways that there are not 2 sides to these events. That cannot be a question of balance this. Of course, a 17 british nationals including children, a fed killed as a result of how masses actions a mouse was prescribed attacked as a terrace organization here in the u. K. A few years ago. And as a result, brittons home secretary. So while abraham and has warned that any protest as waving palestinian flags or singing pro palestinian songs could well face arrest if it is deemed to fail. Doing that in support of a mass, a move that has aroused an awful lot of people who feel that that will only be putting the division between opposing views about why this conflict is happening. Its all the fall chronologist era loved to us, or rather is in support of the palestinian cause, have taken place across the world. And United States that were marches and thousands of towns and cities. One of the biggest was in chicago. Hundreds, 10000 cities, a capital santiago, which had been not just a protestant and community outside of the middle east. Uninstalled africa protests as compared the 75 year illegal occupation of palestine to the injustice of a part time. Were going to take a look now at the scene in gaza where its now just past 5 30 am. The palestinians have been facing continuing the bomb and from israel, i call it down jordan and well be back in hoffman with more of a ongoing coverage program. Counting, the cost is next. Stay with us here or not just in a general election on the referendum on the same day. People in poland to fold on october 15 and make that choice on integration. Im National Security conform. Are you a pre and counsel preston . Donald, to, its kind of enough folks to mount a challenge watched opponent election on alexs era. The hello and so robin, this is tell jimmy cost on al jazeera, youll, we do look at the world of business and economics this week, brookings governing conservatives training in polls due to the economy and other issues. Im actually soon at once to win back photos and present himself as the Prime Minister of change. Also this week 2 kias central bank rems up Interest Rate hikes. In the page detailed installation, we asked the trade minister most behind the shift in Economic Policy also demands the travel has been high after years of cobit 19 restrictions, but the so called revenge a one the last could be waiting the book into the Bank Overseas students who is seen as the pictures probably been a state who could study the ship after the economic turmoil of lives truss. But almost a year after he took office, his governing conservative party is trailing leave it in the opinion polls the u. K. Could be heading into a general election next year. The student wants to convince voters that he can still bring change after 13 years of conservative government outlined his plans that the parties annual conference where we challenge report. So from ben, just a it was a challenging speech for the Prime Minister. Thats a round off. What has been a challenging conference for his government at times hit remind just that it felt like the agenda was spiraling out of the control that was for todays frenzied speculation over the fates of high speed rally. H. S 2 and freedom spigot is like the full, my Prime Minister and low tax champion lives trusts, and your skeptics, 5 rounds nodule for raj, stole the limelight, stole was sent to stay. So the final speech was a johnson vs. So youre not to take back control and what he did was to paint himself as the change candidates ahead of an assumed general election next year. Now thats difficult to do, considering the conservatives, ive been in power for 13 years. He said he wants to attend 3 decades of short termism and pressures politics and to take the difficult, the long term decisions for the, for the past 2 months of the country. Thats the context in which he finally confirms that the bombing into manchester leg of h. S 2 was going to be scraps in favor of a spiders web of improved rail, tram and rows, connections across the north of the country. Im ending this long running saw that i am canceling the rest of the h. S to project and its flight and its place we will then we will re invest every single penny 36000000 pounds in hundreds of new transport projects in the north and the midlands across the country. But they would know plans from richie, so youre not so you caught taxes as news trusts as being drink. Instead, he says hes focused on having inflation as he puts its the real skies the conservative side and wishes to not have the problems. The membership of the policy has never loved him. Im certainly the country does not love that can 7 times anymore. They are still between 10 and 20 percent behind in the polls, and theres no signs that this conference or really so next speech is turning that around. Well reach out for algebra, casting the cost in mentioned so. Well. Joining us from london is vicky prize. Shes the chief Economic Advisor at the center for economics and business research, ms. Price, kentucky with us on counting the cost. Can i just begin with the probably minutes of the perception of the problem is to speech up the compass was to fold. What do you want the party wants to hear what the British Public will make of it both audiences you might say need direction from the Prime Minister envisaging source of the Economic Future that impacts on both sides. What did you make of it . The interesting thing is that it was very well received, of course, by the conference attendees. So it goes to a little conservative voters and to activist what has happened since, of course, is that there are bits of his speech which have been discussed quite extensively. Not just whats happening on the transport side, just scrapping all the noise and link as i was going to connect me home with mine just and then it goes beyond whatever other Infrastructure Spending that was going to be there as well. He is also talks about other issues which are quite interesting. Festival randy prolong some of the money for links between various cities and also doing more for towns instead of this 36000000000 that was going to be spent otherwise about the results. And i live in terms of interference from the stage of on a cigarette smoking where hes raising the age from which he wants to from which you you can legally bias cigarettes. Which means that anyone whos 14 now may not be able to advise cigarettes because he wouldnt be happening every year. So the mix of those things generally of mens as hes his speech was actually reasonably well received across the u. K. Think well, just bear with us for, but lets get all of us a little bit more context on whats being guy going because uh, the 1st image of speech altogether in january appointment is to see next set up 5 priorities. Voice government 1st is having installation, which was 10. 00 by the end of 2022. Its down to 6. 00 and old cost and thats still higher than his target. Second is great, g d, p, the u. K. Economy is recovered from the pen demik faster than previously thought and person is no longer there was performing amongst the group of 7 nations. That, of course, is the priority is to reduce national debt. It was still very high earlier this year at almost 100 percent of g d. P of an cutting hospital waiting listing number of patients. A waiting treatment in england was more than a 100000 people in july from the previous month. And finally stopping, mike went by its 25 percent. Few of people are being recorded crossing the channel from francis at 10. The then in the same period last yeah. Of course miss price, the Prime Minister. Seeing that cuz weve been trying to stabilize the, the policy since he took a is a but also trying to stabilize the economy as being a sort of a shaky ship. Really. Hasnt it for many factors that are in and out of his control. What do you make of the situation about the way hes guiding the economy . He wants to be seen as a stable helmsman. I think that is a time that you can attribute to him. And i think the population at large seems to things that, that he has of cheeks out of to a point because we had all these problems a year ago when hes pretty assessor announced a o and hot chops or announced the many budgets which was quite unfunded. And there were serious concerns in the markets about whether u. K was going sterling fell and there was a big change that took place. And at the end of a lot of that im rumbled and versus who enough to cause. I actually has indeed studied the ship if you like, but whether he can meet these pledges is quite interesting the same place. One is quite an easy one because the bank video has raised Interest Rates and of course well see will, will i installation coming down and is your price is coming down. So thats the one that will be met by the end of the year. So holding the inflation rate, gross has been slightly higher as you were just saying about had been anticipated and we seem to have avoided to a technical recession. So thats good as well. So there are a number of other areas where you know, things on whats happening and you mentioned the National Health service. Thats a serious problem. Still a boats havent been stopped, but the few uh people coming so um thats perhaps the sort of positive. But overall, i think it is the cannot make it public nations of everything that has happened so far, havent necessarily sunk into the population. And there is still a big, big gap between the conservatives in the opinion, polls and label, who are way on top of that with this big issue as matter about bringing inflation di, which weve touched upon on this talk about cutting taxes, which is a divisive issue. As we had towards that general election, what is the impact of cutting taxes in terms of the impact that has on the big industry and on the money in peoples pockets, which is what they want to hear about during this very difficult cost of living crisis. But not just the u. K, but globally is being experienced by so many people i think publish as soon as we need to do is also hes potty and whoever may want to talk to him, says the the possibility of cutting taxes. And i think one of the reasons for scrapping the, the know the extension of h is to the high speed link is really in order to have little bit more money to do. Yes, if you other things, but also possibly cutting taxes before the next election, which is going to happen sometime in 2024. Uh probably. And then the latest time we can happen is, is january 2025. So um, so thats a big issue for him. And indeed, tax scotts uh for businesses have been raised by. Hes put, it says that list trust to both by me just a briefly because of course, one of the things to do research to not get it was to increase the way it wasnt that last. And this started by him was a nice actually before his johnson, interesting enough, wonderful Res Corporation tax from 19 percent to 25 percent. And that these heating businesses on the other hand, it is raising on a did raise last year about 8 to 3000000000. You cant do without the money because of course you also mentioned whats happening on, on a dash 2 g d p and the ratio that, thats really, really important. And you cant stop reducing that unless you still collect money. And if youre not going to collect it from income tax, which is the biggest source of funding for the government, then youve got to have a piece of it extra still a. What does all that salt for a moment to vicki multi discuss, lets give all of us more ideas about whats going on because its 5 minutes to assume that goals and plans to roll out a series of policies over the coming weeks, approximately scaling back home green measures and nothing plays pushing back a bond on the side of new diesel. And petro caused by 5 years to 2035, facing out gas for this, and losing Energy Efficiency standards. So because also prove the new north sea oil and gas and drilling field, his government has raised also the minimum wage for full time work. Cuz so cool. So you know, some pushback in terms of the green policies about the government had been, you might say pushing and promoting to the British Public. But hate just to has grab the headlines. This train line from london. Hopefully going right up to the middle to manchester into leads, partly cancelled most of funding and its going to a huge impact and a huge debate as we had towards that general election. All these things are really crucial a thing right now. I think what key wants to show is that she looks, its a research to not looks at the figures and is quite concerned about the cost to the taxpayer, of a very schemes of whether the money can be re deployed in a different way where the body for money would be bachelors when the cost benefit will work to the advantage of those regions. And this is what hes been advocating now, is that the extension was a big expense, which perhaps can, can be deployed in different ways and to help theres definitely not below that would otherwise be the case. So, so there is that, but on the environmental side, which is interesting, all thats happened is that weve gone back by extending the deadline of when many Manufacturing Companies can still. So im to buy some engine cause and with fuel by petrol and diesel to 2035, which is more or less what was the case before 2019 and where all the other European Countries are are also pursuing a similar deadline. This is whats going on around the world. So we went ahead of the pack, but in reality we dont have enough charging funds for electric vehicles. And thats a big, big issue. So there is a real concern also about where some of the components are. Electric vehicles that produce, we now very heavily subsidizing bass, 3 production here in the you can release, trying to attract investment for it. So i think it makes sense from that point of view. And of course, a vicky with all of that debate going on about generate Electricity Generation and supply. Does this really give, in your opinion, the labor party, the official position . I dont put you in a t to explain with what they would do and how they would proceed if and when they have a wind that general election because it might be an opportunity right now considering poll numbers for the ruling, conservative volunteer. So down i think that ive already indicated in my reverse that a change and the deadline also remains to be seen whether its, its doable or not. But there is another issue about new oil and gas licenses and then not see. This government has now allowed some new ones to be given and the labor part of your site is not going to allow any new ones when they come to file, but they wouldnt respect the ones that will have been given between now. And then. If of course they when next time around. So the awesome distinguishing of factors that nothing, yes, uh the, the liberal party will, would try and, and differentiate yourself if you like from, from the conservative party. But it is quite difficult, particularly since theyre still going to have a huge problem on the fiscal side. Gonna be going to have to have a to stay with. Were just seeing what happens to the price that joining us from london. Thank you for your time. I, i think its the shrinking of foreign currency reserve and soaring inflation. So key is economy has been on the downward spiral for the past few years. The central bank has reverse present a bunch of top photo ones, mandatory policy of height, Interest Rates to ease those prices. To bring in revenue. The government is betting big old manufacturing that account for maybe 20 percent of g d p in 2022. So, so the spoke to the faith minister about he started by asking if keith has become an International Production hub. After the break of the go with 19 cortez, the possibility of supplying tammy goes cleaning materials and all of the into immediate goods or consumer goods to invest in markets. And the in this way to, to has pro and it says to be hop for the quality it competitive and raising the price of Manufacturing Products and a supplier and the logistical. What is the Competitive Edge of 2 key it among the companies as for attempting to attract for an in westman to boost in the corners . What does your competitive patch try to as an open economic and competitive market . The con, i mean, and our laws and all the regulations are equal for domestic and International Investors and tre, theres not discrimination at all in all aspects, taxation, public procurement, and public tenders, a commercial low in all aspects. So if you would like to take advantage of all these uh, factors, most importantly, we have a talent to the labor force that we have at the talent, the lights color, good educated, and workforce. And the have, as i mean, geographical proximity to the most develop markets like invest in europe, in markets. And we have a very Competitive Services sector in transportation, in telecommunications, high tech industries, as also for the sector. And is, i mean a, we have a very talented threes in sector. I mean in detroit case tourism in the ranks fall off in the wrong area. And, and our goal is to increase the number of torys entries in income to 100000000000. 00 in threes in income and 100000000. 00 tories. And by the year 2013, the countries still suffering from one of the highest inflation rates. So just coming to that of the winning, the me elections, your governments raised Interest Rate is dramatically from 8. 5 percent to 25 percent. That was a departure from your previous policy that was based on the low Interest Rate. So what compelled you to alter your strategy and how has that affect the 2 or 4 and 3 stickers. So far, the government has to have a new policy in monetary and economic field and to lead the country to grow for export oriented and means that for the the city mil late are exportation. And we try to keep the domestic domestic demand a little bit moderating. And therefore, in order to increase our hot currency, the reserves, and central bank up to the, for a sharp successive increases in the, in the political Interest Rate. This paula sit stock to, to have effects on the far ends right front. Our exports are increasing at the lower rates compared to with the same month off last year. And our phone and trade deficit start to, to degrees on the by mouth. I mean, each month and it shall, we will continue these trends and we will keep our heart going in a series. This is sufficient for the economy. Its a q f law. The minister of 3 of the republic of turkey. Mr. America, by thank you for i thank you very much. The pun, debit looked at it was made International Travel based in possible symbols in 2 years. I see this kind of 19 restrictions were lifted, believes that people rush to go on holiday or visit that families 2022 sore, a huge rise in the num both International Travelers. The phenomena was dumped, revenge, travel, but the edge to spend on pricey trips appears to be fading in 2023. A new report by the Research Company building consult phone plan travel is folding in many countries mainly in europe. Theyve dropped 11 Percentage Points in front since 6 in june, but a since 2022 interest in travels as out in canada and russia. The new data comes as the plane manufacturer. Boeing says the recovery in travel demand is more resilient than the company expected. Well, joining us from sydney assignment ls, good assignment isnt aviation analyst and had to research at topic center for aviation. Just as good, really good to have you with us from sidney. I mean, suppose, depending on which side of the fence youll sitting, the document makes for interesting reading. I mean, what, what are the salient points that you think are important for the traveller more more . See is the sort of the Revenge Travel phrase from the end of next starting to come to a close. Its not happening uniformly a and its not the same rate ever way. Interest in trouble remains elevated globally and airlines. Seeing that translating into more interest in premium travel, business cause trouble and that sort of thing. But this being, i sort of slowing all this revenge trouble for my mom in some geographies, particularly the Northern Hemisphere advanced economies. People have had they, theyve spent their savings only once in a lifetime. Well they, they fucking bucket list to sort of trip. And now theyre returning to more more usual, more typical travel patterns. What were seeing in the developing world where Economic Growth is, is more rapid, is the there still pinned up savings, but its still a launch desire to travel, particularly internationally. Most is most pronounced piece. You know, of asia, a Weight Capacity is still only about 2 thirds of what it was in 2019. And so theres a lot of henry progressed in div thats cool. So you just mentioned the focus in move and uh, maybe Northern Hemisphere developed countries. I, europe, that people maybe havent run out of money yet. There is money available as you say in other areas. And then other groups in other demographic such as like for example, the chinese or the americans. Lots taurus, groups come to europe, for example. What the financial situation, those 2 countries, for example, is also very difficult right now. How do you assess dot markets of whether they are able to travel and want to travel as well, starting with the chinese trouble lock. And so trying to reopen, officially re up international troll in early, early this year. And there was an initial, a huge blooming interest that has a really translated yet into a really big, big, like chinese outbound trouble. And by International Travelers coming into china. There are a range of reasons behind that. Um, id be going to select capacity. As i mentioned, the north asian markets, only about 2 thirds of china are still well up to 50 percent of its International Pre pandemic capacity. Um that has been continued govern restrictions on the sounds of great tumors and package tools to finally being so swept away and then also be a shift in the chinese trouble. The chinese rediscover the domestic market for travel during during the credited period. And i am with some of the financial to them all thats been going on the market and some of the, the elevated, lingering, elevated safety concerns in the chinese driver. Were seeing a strong preference for domestic trouble and data assignment just briefly a bit before we go. I mean, overall, do you think that the industry as well as for the travel it looks good as we sort of ends 2023 and we had to 2024. What are your predictions . The industry still got a lot of kinks to work out from private supply chains. I still disrupted the industry so hasnt managed to get employment back to where it was before that demick. There are still lots of unexpected. Lots of bonds that are being thrown up by geo politics, by the constant shops of weather and, and one on forbids of the industry really adaptable and its, its a very, very high job sector. If airlines saving one market isnt performing the shift, there could be elsewhere, you know, an aircraft is, is a transferable asset. Um, so the industry is, is very, very fast to react to these situations. But its not, its not in the health that was beforehand demik, even though we see so many lines reporting record financial results. Um those results are really and they distributed across the Globe Airlines that are a big wealthy markets to not doing well. And the rest of the world is not going to well, we shall see what happens in 2024, but from american simon else. Good, thanks for joining us from sidney. Thank you very much for having me on that.
