In the � 90s and early � 00s. Now this comes hot on the heels of disappointing china trade data on tuesday showing exports sank at their fastest rate since the pandemic. Global demand for chinese made goods is falling, down more 14 in the year tojuly. But domestic demand is down too with imports also falling by more than 12 in the same period. Earlier, i spoke to janet mui, whos the head of Market Analysis at rbc brewin dolphin, and she explained where the deflation was coming from. Deflation data, basically mostly coming from food prices and also commodities prices like raw materials, energy, etc. Actually, if you look at the underlying inflation, things like services, things like tourism, leisure, hotels, actually they are up. The Core Inflation is up from 0. 4 to 0. 8 , but obviously its still pretty muted. So overall, i think it is a concern that china prices are contracting and it could be lasting for a while as well. How likely do you think it is, though, that china is going to be trapped in a deflationary spiral, the likes of which we saw 20 years or so ago with japan . I think we currently dont see that risk. We dont see that kind of deflation will extend for a long period of time. As i mentioned, actually, china is undergoing a recovery after the reopening. The reopening is not anywhere as strong as anyone anticipated, but it is still a process that china needs to go through. So right now, what we are observing in china is that similar to what happened in the uk or the us, people are switching from spending on goods during the pandemic to services when everything reopens. So as i mentioned, things like hotels, travelling, going to restaurants, those prices are actually going up. So this is actually better than people anticipated. The weakness is actually in food prices and also goods prices. So people spending less on Consumer Goods and clothes and electronics, for instance. Italys banks have rebounded during todays trading session, after experiencing some heavy falls on tuesday. This all came about after the government announced a a0 percent windfall tax on the countrys lenders. But late on tuesday, the finance Ministry Said the tax would be capped at 0. 1 of assets, without providing further details. So what does this all mean . Earlier, i spoke to Lorenzo Codogno and he explained why the windfall tax was introduced. The government announced the measure to make sure that banks actually increase the depository in line with the increase in official Interest Rates because the gap of the Interest Rate margin was widening. However, using taxation to do that is a bad idea, i think if there is a problem in terms of competition you should address that. You should address regulation, competition law. You should basically do all the things that can actually make the market more efficient and competitive, but not taxation. Taxation in general is a bad idea. It is a bad idea particularly now because it could actually impinge the ability of banks to extend credit to the economy in a situation in which you need it. So that is. From a political point of view, it is a win Win Situation because they are happy to penalise the banks, that are usually taken as a bad thing for everything. Italy, like many countries, is experiencing a cost of living crisis, so it is no surprise that the meloni administration, won a lot of political points and favour with the public for announcing this. Is some of that goodwill eroded by immediately coming back and saying it is only 0. 1 of assets . Does it look cynical . Yes, it looks like something that was not well prepared in advance. Effectively the investors were frantically looking at the overall amount of hit to the bank profits and it was perceived to be quite sizeable so the government basically decided to step back a bit and reduce the margin. Reduce the bargain. Again, it tells something about the degree of preparation of the measure beforehand, and also probably tells them it was basically driven by political consideration, not technical consideration. Talking of political considerations, lets talk to matters. In india farmers are enjoying a windfall because of high tomato prices, this is forcing them off the menu of Many International chains such as mcdonalds and subway. It is putting pressure on the bank, it is making its latest Interest Rate decision later on this week. Almost a month on, this humble tomato, which is really a vital ingredient in the base of most indian curries is out of reach of most people here. I used to cost roughly about 30 cents a0 cents but now retails at 2 a kilo in markets like these and there is a lot of anguish as a result of that. Translation i lot of anguish as a result of that. Translation lot of anguish as a result of that. Translation i have been Selling Venetables translation i have been selling vegetables for translation i have been selling vegetables for 20 translation i have been selling vegetables for 20 years translation i have been selling vegetables for 20 years but translation i have been selling vegetables for 20 years but never| vegetables for 20 years but never seen prices go so high. Demand is definitely down. People who are buying five kilos earlier i out by two kilos in anticipation that rates will come down. Will come down. There are many reasons white will come down. There are many reasons white matter will come down. There are many reasons white matter prices will come down. There are many| reasons white matter prices have continued to go up. Tomato prices. Extreme weather has damaged the crop but made it difficult for transporting. There are longer term issues, things such as lack of adequate storage and processing infrastructure. None of this can be sorted out overnight which is white matter prices are expected to go up even further they begin falling down in september once the new crop comes in. People like this woman who ran a Home Catering business are worried. It has definitely increased my budget and i cannot increase the budgets for my clients because we have a fixed price and effects clientele. It has definitely affected me because i cannot make any profit from that. Any profit from that. Along with tomatoes. Any profit from that. Along with tomatoes, prices any profit from that.

Along with tomatoes, prices of onions and other staples in indian cooking have been going up as well. This is a worry notjust going up as well. This is a worry not just the going up as well. This is a worry notjust the politicians but also for indias central bank. High prices of onions have led to electoral defeats in this country and it could also feed into hard Consumer Inflation at a time when the Reserve Bank Of India is meeting later this week to decide on Interest Rates.

Thousands of hours of training have made her one of the top five made her one of the top fire detectives in the country. We put a facial wipe there. Were going to put one pinhead size nail of diesel. Thats the size of a pinhead in there. And shell pick that up . Hopefully. In just two years and 200 call outs, shes had a huge impact in catching criminals. Vehicle fires, for instance. Shes indicated that fuel has actually been poured over the vehicles. Shes then found a container that contains that same fuel nearby which then the investigating officers, once its tested, can maybe get Finger Prints or dna from that linking them to a suspect.

The think tank the National Institute for economic and social research has said that the uk is set for five years of lost Economic Growth, with the poorest hit hardest. Citing the Tripple Impact of brexit, covid and the war in ukraine badly affecting finances. Its predicting that uk economic output will remain below pre pandemic levels until the second half of next year. Live now to alfie stirling, Chief Economist and associate director at the Joseph Rowntree foundation. Thank you so much forjoining us on bbc news. Tell me a little bit about what you think of this study, it is saying we have had five years of lost Economic Growth and things are not going to look much better for another year or so.

L to be honest, it is confirming a lot of what we very sadly already knew. The uk has the slowest recovery in one of the most advanced economies in the g7 coming out of the pandemic. It is the only one of those economies not to have recovered to pre pandemic levels and now not forecast to do so for more than a year from now. This now not forecast to do so for more than a yearfrom now. This is really hurting millions of families up and down the country. The latest survey conducted by the joseph down the country.

I think what we are worried about at the moment is this current part of the moment is this current part of the Economic Cycle is entering a dangerous new phase. We have had a year and a half of more or more of a cost of living crisis, prices rising faster than people are used to and that is now being compounded by the cost of money itself. 2. 2 million families took out loans to pay for essentials.

If less in the way of direct support, for families and businesses. If you think about what the government has done to support people in the cost of living crisis in the uk compared to spain, germany, even the us, it is a weaker response which has both meant the experience in terms of what the economy is affecting peoples lives is that much more dire for people who are worse off, but as a whole the economy is slower to recover because there is less money in circulation and fewer investments and jobs being created, and Public Services are really struggling. We have got long nhs Waiting Lists and people struggling to get back to work. Waiting lists and people struggling to get back to work. Thank you very much indeed yemen . The poorest country in the arab world has been brought to the brink of collapse by almost a decade of civil war. Back in 201a, houthi forces backed by iran seized the capital. A Saudi Led Coalition supported by britain and america intervened. But the houthis have not been dislodged and still Control Sanaa and the north, where most of the population live. Few places have suffered more that taiz, a city which for more than 3,000 days has been besieged by houthi forces. 0ur Senior International correspondent 0rla guerin spent several days in the city s main hospital. Every second counts. And war has taught them to be quick. It has honed their skills. At al zour hospital, doctors patch up some of the latest broken bodies. This time, its Government Troops hit by a houthi drone. 0ne soldier, called 0mar, could not be saved. Another is rushed away for treatment elsewhere. Anyone can be a target here, notjust men in uniform. Nearby, we meet hanadi. Every painful step reminds her of the war. Her father struggles to pay for her treatment. She was shot in the back by a sniper, he tells us. That was in 2016 and the bullet is still lodged inside her. Are you very worried about the future for hanadi . Yes, he says. I am worried for her because shes a girl. I wish it happened to me and not her. I wish the sniper had shot me and not her. This is the biggest hospital in a city that has been a battleground for years. These days in taizz and in yemen, its not all out war, but its not peace either. The guns are quieter, but this hospital is still receiving plenty of patients wounded by the conflict. Like mohammed, who is seven. And crying for his mother. His dressing needs to be changed. Its hard for his father to watch. Mohammed lost Three Fingers when he picked up an explosive device. He was playing on the roof of his home. Translation hes scared because his hand is gone. L hes very scared. He cant do anything. He cant even hold a pen. In the hospitals busy prosthetics clinic. They try to replace what war has taken away. But these artificial limbs are basic, and its traumatic, even for the doctors. It must be very, very hard for you to see the children like this. Its so bad. Translation its very upsetting. Our hearts ache when we see Young Children who are still looking forward to living and enjoying life needing amputations. Next door, a regular Physiotherapy Session for shaima al ahmed, who has been walking this path for years. A landmine took her leg and killed herfriend. Shaima is determined to be a lawyer, and at 12 years old, she is the voice of a generation in yemen. Translation children here suffer. Theyve lost their arms and legs. They dont go out and play like other children around the world. They play in comfort, but we play in fear. We just stand by the doors of our homes. When we hear shelling or gunfire, we run back inside. Shaima, what would you like to say to the international community, to the world, about what is happening here in yemen . Translation why dont you see the children of taiz . Why all this neglect . Are we not humans in your eyes . Across town, an honour guard for 0mar, the soldier killed in the houthi drone strike. One more death in a long war, and few here see a chance for peace. 0rla guerin, bbc news, taizz. The artists behind the cover of the six president s albums and local has died. Sex pistols. His distinctive style was emblematic of the Punk Movement of the time and his designs became heavily associated with the sound and style of the band. His colourist confirmed he died on tuesday, adding he leaves behind behind an enormous legacy. His galla lets turn to scotland.

Thank you very much indeed now its time for a look at the weather, with helen willetts. Hello there. Behind me, rather murky weather in newquay, cornwall this morning. But the skies are brightening and for many there is more sunshine on offer for the rest of today and tomorrow. But a brief lived burst of Summer Warmth. We have got weak Weather Fronts around, that is what is giving the misty, murky weather around the coast of south west england, wales, its giving a little drizzle to Northern Ireland, that is moving into scotland. But the High Pressure is pushing northwards, tending to dry out the atmosphere somewhat and clear the cloud. So, yes, we will have some sunshine around but probably, we have seen the best of that in scotland already this morning. Rather more cloud throughout the rest of the afternoon. Still windy and quite cool in 0rkney, shetland, 23, 2a further south and east, some sunshine, very pleasant. Now, we will keep some cloud, low cloud around the irish sea coast overnight. A little bit of fog forming inland as we had this morning, what is notable tonight is that it is much milder in the north of scotland, Northern Ireland and Northern England in particular. Why . Because we have pulled in this more humid air, the southerly winds drawing that heat northwards, which is why we are looking at temperatures getting widely into the 20s on thursday. So, the morning fog, which lasts through the first part, clears away quite quickly. There could be the odd shower with Cloud Lingering and then cloud comes into the south west later. But, actually, it is for all intents and purposes a fine day. 25 in the central belt, 23 perhaps in some parts of Northern Ireland. 26 or 27 further south and east across england and wales. Then, i say it is a brief burst of summer, of Summer Warmth because this low pressure comes in through friday. Thursday night, into friday. It is starting to clear away on friday morning but drags its heels across the north east of scotland, possibly eastern areas. Then there will be a peppering of showers coming behind. Still quite warm, a warm Starting Point if you like on friday so we could still get 25 or 26 in southern and eastern areas. But most places behind the Weather Front will feel a bit fresher. And fresher feeling with low pressure sat to the west of us, it is showers and longer spells of rain, particularly in the north and the west. Fewer showers the further east you are, you are more likely to escape them and stay dry, but no promises, it is a showery picture this weekend and there will be some likely showers once again with hail and thunder.
