By a small city by shifting to the capital clinton look at the way i. See the way you know. Yes. This is boom bust that one business show you cant afford to miss on fairmont us over in washington coming out protest against Racial Injustice continue across the United States and now around the globe will discuss the demonstrations with economics professor Richard Wolfe and arties rick sanchez then of the trauma virus pandemic continued governments around the world are looking for revenue well tell you about the European Countries looking to put digital on American Tech Companies we have a packed show today so lets go and dive right in. Were going to start today with a Panel Discussion with r. T. As host of the news with Rick Sanchez Rick sanchez and host of economic day and author of understanding socialism professor Richard Wolfe thank you for joining me today professor i want to start with you these these protests are just ravaging the overall become more peaceful what start with the basic question of why is this movement spreading worldwide. Well i think. What anyone should have understood was coming this is a major over all on the working people are cruel so were going i mean you put 40000000 people out were at a time were going to already under pressure because the government didnt prepare very well and then. Nor is it managing it really well and youre putting people under an equal neat little pressure and when you couple that with all that they dont know about whether they are. Poor and you know that youre going to explosions and theyre going to impact all kinds of communities and unfortunately you will see bad reaction by the police in this country you dont have a good record you know this anger on the part of people whove suffered more even than the average person was unemployed and then we have this tragedy of the United States thats constantly reliables of efforts just like the working class from having a uniform and organized reaction into fighting battles over racial differences that we should have put to rest a century ago a lot of frustration from not just americans but now its spreading worldwide rick Racial Disparity and injustice isnt just an american issue. Its not really that much about Racial Disparity and injustice whats happened in america and i can tell you i think from my experiences as an immigrant who came to america as somebody who grew up with parents who only made 11000. 00 a year combined income thats what my job my dad having 2 jobs and my mom having one job sewing leather shoes in a factory. There was a famous russian immigrant who came to america bought 100 years ago sarah his name was abraham mass law and he said if youre a hammer everything is a nail if youre hammer everything is a nail thats whats happened to our Justice System in america about 30 or 40 years ago and successively since what weve done is weve militarized our Police Departments weve millet. Arised are cities for economic reasons and for political reasons we have chosen to put all of our funding all of our money on those people who arrest people rather than those people who helped grow people so go back to the what i just said or work if youre a hammer everythings a nail if youre a Police Department whos wearing camouflage and Army Uniforms everybody is the enemy if all you have in your city are Police Officers no longer hire counselors psychologist teachers park and recreation leaders then the people youve hired see everyone is a killer let me ask you this they say their job yet they if theres a lack of good story lines is this a lack of resources no no its not a lack of resources its news ing the resources in the wrong way if in other words every politician in america from city councilman do mayors decided somewhere along the line 2530 years ago that they would have stump speeches that said im going to give you more Police Officers im going to be tougher im going to give you more cops im going to give you tanks to have on the streets im going to get your cops machine guns and that continued over time and over time and what it did was it turned us all into boss versus them and its been going on ever since and everybody you know i know theres obviously a Racial Disparity in all of this as you said and it does tend to break more toward africanamericans who look different but if you really look at it Police Officers in america out there also versus them that theyve developed many of them are good people but theyve been put in that situation so thats what theyre going to do and so sad at your job to go out and arrest people there isnt an area that i wear a mental theres an experiment i dont recall the name of it where they place with a sociologist i believe performed at a place certain people in cop you know farms others as prisoners when you get somebody that authority and theyre all training and they they felt the power they felt that authority so i understood. And what youre saying rick professor wolf you talked about the exacerbation of this because of the frustration of the pandemic when you have so much unemployment what were looking at right here but is this actually going to change anything is it time for a change. Well i think what the message is which i hope our leaders or the one not confident that they will go home is and i gree with regarding this if you dont change the way youre proceeding how you allocate your resources but where you get the adequate resources to deal with this if you think you can dominate or redress or for reasons youre not understanding that you cannot keep squeezing the mass of your equal the way we are doing now fundamentally economically what weve got all the races this is going to weeks we have Serious Problems in this country theyre not being addressed theyre being if because we dont have the money going where it needs the rich get richer everybody else is worried to death your own little list is off thats how empires die not from external attacked but from desire inside we are in that position well rick let a lesson to me as a quick answer here at the World Economic forum is looking to adopt a new format next year theyre actually going through a new slogan the theme is the great reset of 2021 this is obviously an elite gathering that happens annually every january and davos is that will bring the needle even further our should this meeting be held elsewhere. The only problem with this is that every chair in the changes that we make fundamentally are going to have to come from the bottom i dont think you can change things from the top you dont change things with your president or your governor you have to change things at this. At the level where people are actually feeling theres this shift theres change with each Police Officer for example look ive said this before its its as simple as this if you want to take every Police Department in america starting tomorrow and take every cop and say 2 days a week were taking away your badge and your gun and were going to assign you to a playground or a school or a craft area or whatever and were going to give you a coachs hadnt a whistle or were going to give you an opportunity to help young men grow and learn about life were going to let you do arts and crafts with young small kids or im going to let you be a counselor it would fundamentally change our society overnight and its not a law that comes from above its about creating relationships with people that right now in our country do not exist well and we have we have these people over here our authority of people over here who have known well thats not right we have seen some protesters thumb up Police Officers kneeling at what the protesters standing with the protesters but you question and ask yourselves is this for show is this do they is this intentional is this i mean how many george floyd have there been that we have not seen will smith had a perfectly is just its not that its changed its that now we can film it right yeah yeah yeah thats a big part of it i think professor wolf what agree that in the end we have fundamentally screwed up how we create our society and then you have of course some of the media members who are you know cheering on this authoritative society that weve created you know professor wolf i dont know about how you feel about this but i think in many ways theyre just as theyre just as much to blame. Absolutely i couldnt agree more i mean thats why we need the fundamental change and youre right it not only has to come from below but that is where it is in fact coming now theres an irony here we dont reach a tribute well enough theyre wearing. Is a number of form of redistributing wealth the message there is if you dont want to read distribute in violent and you know ways youve got to start by distributing it fairly we dont do that in our capitalist are we looking at basic income basic universal income is that something that would solve that that a fresh in that direction its not the particulars that are necessary rick sanchez is right you have to change the whole mindset the whole organization otherwise the piecemeal things are things that will be said and done that dabbles will become ancient history in 10 minutes because the reality is being worked out in every workplace every office or. Strangle you and i really like what you said rick what you said about placing these Police Officers taking away their guns placing in a playground giving them a west saw a ball cap acting like humanizing them because often oftentimes theyre there didnt humanize and its unfortunate well see where this goes from here protesters arent going anywhere go ahead read last thought. I was just going to say we need to stop putting it all on Police Officers weve put them in a horrible situation and many of them are good people essentially playing the role that weve given them and you know what i love america i love this country im so proud of the opportunity that i got from this country coming here is a poor refugee and i think we can work but we need to create those relationships to make it happen and i trust that we need we need a less hostile thank you so much for that discussion rick sanchez host of the news rick sanchez and economics professor Richard Wolfe thank you again. Back here in washington d. C. The demonstrations appear to be peaceful compared to days prior however protesters say they will continue to exercise their 1st amendment rights and they will not stop sharing their message of injustice and racial inequality arties Rachel Blevins has been covering the protests in the Nations Capital throughout. This now outside the white house rachel what is the latest on the ground. Once theyre out here we have just learned that all 4 officers were fired for their role in georgia was will face charges but at the same time that has done very little to change the atmosphere here and while protesters say its a good start they also say that this movement is about much more than just words floyd now were here outside of the white house about as close as we can get to it as you can see behind me there are hundreds of protesters that have gathered on the other side of those protesters there is a line of armored personnel so far weve seen military police and federal police and behind them there are 2 vehicles now there have been different reports today about whether active duty troops would be coming on the ground here in d. C. To police these protesters but defense secretary mark. Doesnt believe this is the way to hold things or the way to deal with these protests so for now it looks like there wont be active duty troops on the ground now its important to know just how peaceful these protests have been over the last 24 hours here in washington d. C. And thats a credit. Important because over the last 24 hours weve seen some of the largest protests so far take a look at what we saw earlier today. Protesters gathered by the hundreds in washington d. C. Wednesday morning for a march to the Capitol Building demonstrators said their goal was to continue spreading their message despite the threat of an increased crackdown finally the protesters are marching to the capital right now here in washington d. C. And we are here in calls of no justice no peace say his name george floyd is a higher name Briana Taylor and people that have gathered here want to emphasize the fact that this is a largely peaceful protest but at the same chinee are still adamant about bringing attention to those cases of Police Brutality the cases where americans have lost their lives at the hands of police yet in these cases as they have said there has been no justice and they say there will be no peace the protest was organized by the Group Freedom fighters d. C. And they repeatedly emphasize the fact that it was meant to bring awareness to a message that has been at the heart of these protests since the beginning organizers were seen handing out bottles of water mask and Hand Sanitizer and demonstrators included people of all races all ages and all backgrounds this protest comes one day after thousands were seen marching to the white house marking the largest gathering the city has seen since the protests began many of those protesters broke the 7 pm curfew implemented by the district but even then the demonstrations were largely peaceful in the clashes with police appeared to be minimal. Now the overwhelming message from these protesters has been that they want their voices to be heard they want to see justice perfect as a Police Brutality like theyre on a scale or untoward void and they want to see a shift in the way the policing is handled here in the United States now even with the curfews even with all of the militarized police that we have seen here on the ground these protesters say they dont plan to stop anytime soon reporting for boom bust outside of the white house rachel love and art scene. Time now for a quick break but stay here because when we return the twitter feud between the social media giant and President Donald Trump continues but now the company says it isnt going out for all misinformation well explain as we go to break here the numbers on the bottle. To. You straight home. I think it was Government Official of president i dont have faith in the system. Im too liberal the system designed for people like this. Very. Different people here for Different Reasons. Most people in philadelphia are only about 2 paychecks away from homelessness. In 2008 there was the Global Financial crisis and the solution was not to reform the Banking System to stop the crisis from repeating again the solution was heres a bigger credit line to the worst banks in america to do the same thing but much worse and we said we predicted within 10 to 12 years there would be a repeat of the 2008 crisis by a much bigger a much bigger scale actually whats happening. The u. S. Trade representative announced its plan to open a month to gay sions on some countries over a digital tax plan on american tech giant well the u. S. T. R. Office is concerned the Digital Services taxes are discriminatory against United States companies who must. Now to discuss kristie is a u. S. Instigating another trade war with the rest of the world this time over digital taxes. Well right now the u. S. Is opening probes into these nations planning higher duties on tech giants announcing that it is an investigating also. Brazil the new india indonesia italy spain turkey the u. K. And the Czech Republic so this could lead to charges being and political is on the countrys exports to the u. S. Now this probe encompasses general taxes that have either been adopted or are under consideration by the countrys move seeks to determine whether or not the u. S. Levies on electronic congressman it against american technical amazon so all of this looks like a rinse and repeat playbook of how the trade war with china 1st started out socalled section 301 investigation by the us was conducted and after several months the us concluded wrongdoing by china led to an escalation in tariffs on about the 60000000000 dollars worth of goods so it is not far fetched to think that the u. S. Its instigating another trade war get it get so right now the organ our Economic Development is trying to find agreement among 140 countries on a global tax overhaul in order to address how multinationals particularly tech giants are taxed in countries where they have users so its set to present a plan by the end of this year and many countries are desperate for fresh cash as the Coronavirus Crisis has emptied out the government coffers and right now theyre turning to very well capitalized tech giants for revenue well and it is an Election Year so this is important for President Trump we know he likes to start these trade wars he has to be careful about the timing of this so kristie the wave of of the markets there continuing to march up this is despite the pandemic whats the latest there. Well the market is rallying against wednesday on the back of better than expected Economic Data that i have some data show that the u. S. There is a sector contract at less than expected we bounding from an 11 year trough so last month when you came in at 45. 00 which still indicates a contraction in the Services Sector but at least its bouncing back and the a. T. P. Also reported one day that companies lost another 2. 7. 1000000 dollars last month and normally this would be a really nasty present but instead this came in significantly above expectations of 8700000. 00 so the market is taking that as a sign of good news that the most severe job crisis in u. S. History is about to turn to the economy starts to reopen so theyre trying to trying to twist the narrative the bad news is bad but its not so bad so its apparently a bit optimistic continuing claims also drop by nearly 4000000. 00 and then on top of that there is also those growing optimism for additional government stimulus so it is likely that americans will receive a 2nd round of economic stimulus payments under the proposed heroes act which is on the table as a 3 trillion dollars package right were still waiting on that on that vote but of course there are these protests have taken over the time of these senators and people in office kristie tensions continue to build up between the east and the west as china is now facing mounting criticism for its security laws that imposed last week on hong kong now the u. K. Is getting involved whats happened there. So this was a completely unexpected move wednesday when u. K. Prime minister Boris Johnson pledged to provide british citizenship for nearly 3000000 hong kong residents in response to beijings new Interactive Security laws so he can announce that people in hong kong who hold the Bridge National overseas passport will be allowed to come to the u. K. For 12 months with out of news and provide an unspecified pathway to future citizenship so this is quite unexpected as britain has just left that you knew in part to curb the flow of european migrants into the country so the nation right now is also facing an uncertain Economic Future due to colin 19 so if history is any guide analysts suspect that this is likely to be an empty gesture that britain may actually grant the right to abode to maybe only a fraction of the you know passport holders mainly entrepreneurs professionals financiers and people who are deemed politically sensitive but even so china is of course furious at these turn of events and u. K. To stop interfering hall calls and chinas internal affairs this is a big game change in the the events of an awful unfolded from this this law that beijing imposed bus cohost kristie i think you. Think you. In light of the new executive order signed by President Trump twitter is attempting to clarify its position on removing what it calls misinformation from the platform that includes a new clarification in which twitter claims company wasnt focused on flagging all misinformation but instead is giving priority to posts with the highest potential for harm well joining us now to discuss has been west coast lets get a journalist swan twitters newest statement about this came out in a tweet on tuesday and it reads we are not attempting to address all misinformation instead we prioritize based on the highest potential for harm focusing on manipulated media civic integrity and kovan 1000 likelihood severity and type of potential harm along with search or reach and scale factor into this war what do you make of the statement. Yeah i make of it that its a ridiculous statement look twitter is scrambling right now to try to figure out how to deal with this executive order that was signed by President Trump we have talked about it on the show for section 230. 00 of the Communications Decency act as it were just simply is a liability shield for Tech Companies and its not just whether facebook and google you tube as well they all hide behind this this liability show which allows them to be a platform that cannot be sued the problem is that twitter and these other companies are not acting as platforms they are acting as publishers and with an editorial control so what twitters trying to do now is clarify and say no were not actually using editorial control meaning were not you know since arena all this information were just dealing with things that might be misinformation and harmful to the public and so theyre trying to set themselves up almost as a censor of things that have public detriment to them the problem is that this is been long documented that twitter shadow bans users and they control and editorialize content on their platform now theyre trying to spin this and theres a difference between fake news and Something Like having editorial control over something that could be harmful violates their terms of use one of the tweets at twitter flagged it was won by the president and which trump said when the looting starts the shooting starts critics say that was an allusion to the u. S. Era segregation so how does twitters context checking fit into the example versus Fact Checking. Well thats thats what twitter is now saying is theyre saying were not Fact Checkers we dont fact check but we do context check no they dont they absolutely do not context because context checking is actually a more difficult job than Fact Checking Fact Checking z. Z. That checking goes in and says is the statement here true or untrue just a flat scale context checking says lets go into the context of whats being said determine whether or not in the greater scheme of lots of information this information is still accurate or true none of that has anything to do with what the president said what the president said was something that was considered insensitive it was consider race baiting it did it was a throwback to many people to the time of segregation and so they saw it as offensive so you could label something as offensive to some people but that doesnt mean that your context for what or where it went for because you think it right theres no facts involved in it he was just simply saying something that was off the cuff and was demeaning to some people but at the same time theres nothing to do other context or fact check there its really interesting how theyre now changing their language for that but then meanwhile were seeing a number of out of context twitter accounts become protest accounts for example that out of context bojo course meant account with 180000. 00 followers it posted bail funds for people to donate to posted advice on safety protesting and amplified black voices fighting against Police Brutality why are these accounts doing this and is it even a smart move. Well its an interesting move because you do have these theyre called like you said out of context project horsemen or out of context futurama and what they do is they take these basically fan sites and they are now becoming politicized listen i think they they they say we have a big platform and we can use it for good i think that smart but at the same time there is a certain point at which people say i dont want every part of my life and every time i go to social media to have to deal with politics i want to have a look at Something Else at some point so its an interesting kind of balance i think theyre going to find theyre absolutely been less cohost an investigative journalist spence one thank you well see if they find that balance ever. There thanks. For the time you can catch the most on demand on the brand new portable t. V. Apple mail on smartphones through google play and the Apple App Store by searching portable t. V. The next time. In 2008 there was the Global Financial crisis and the solution was not to reform the Banking System to stop the crisis from repeating again the solution was heres a bigger credit line to the worst banks in america to do the same thing but much worse and we said we predicted within 10 to 12 years there would be a repeat of the 2008 crisis but much bigger a much bigger scale something saqlain whats happening now.

Welcoming our viewers from around the world live from Central London this is auntie u. K. Charity say rocketing unemployment levels will plunge over a 1000000 britons into poverty including conference of thousands of children it follows the Prime Ministers warning that many many will lose their jobs following the coronavirus pandemic. As americas ongoing racial unrest continues all 4 Police Officers present when george ford died one now face charges. The leader of the house of commons has reiterated that the government wont take stand the breaks that transition period thats as a former scottish 1st minister calls for an extension amid the Global Pandemic. Boris johnson should not be playing over to the people of britain at a time when the facing the biggest chunk of his hard since 1000 focus. On Scottish Councils face 100000000. 00 funding a black hole which would improve the countrys frontline response to the virus at risk ill be talking to a member of the Scottish Parliament. Charges warn soaring unemployment stooge the coronavirus pandemic will send over a 1000000 more britons in. Poverty by the end of the year the start warning comes after the Prime Minister admitted significantly more british workers will lose their jobs or more in this r. T. You case is around and joins me now either he says so can you tell us all about these unemployment predictions of the Prime Minister and absolutely weve seen of course with the lockdown going hand in hand with the corona Virus Outbreak weve seen companies being affected businesses peoples livelihoods and for that reason the many warnings of economic downturns not just now but of course when the krona virus pandemic will be over and when the lock down is lifted and that was one of the themes that the Prime Minister Boris Johnson touched upon yesterday when he headed up the governments Daily Press Conference lets be in there dont you im afraid tragically there will be many many job losses and that is just inevitable because of the effect of this virus on the economy and because of the because of the shutdown that has taken place. Just the Prime Minister with those pessimistic warnings weve been hearing from a number of former chancellors who are all expressing the same sentiment that its going to impact many people across the country unless the government takes measures to mitigate any economic downturn. Really only the government is big enough to provide the scale of 1st support that i think will be necessary and as i said earlier we need to get ourselves into the frame of mind we were thinking about 980 s. Levels of unemployment if it doesnt happen thats great and we need to be ready for that terrible loss of g. D. P. Might be less than in 20089 but that there may be a large number of human chasms exult. In that in the process the real question is what was the last part of the recovery look like once we get back to you know loss of output of quote only 6 percent how do we how do we make that last bit back up is it a steep curve or is it a long shallow curve. So the same d type of message by those charts of those but weve also seen the office for budget responsibility warning that it could cost 132000000000 pounds for the government to support people and also to give tax cuts to prop up the economy now charities are also warning that we could see over a 1000000 people plunged into poverty by the end of this year and of those 1120000 of them could be children weve already seen u. N. Reports in the past pointing out the number of children already living in poverty in this country that could be set to grow the predictions also estimate that according to the bank of england anyway that 2000000 more people could lose their jobs by next year bringing the total number of jobless to 3300000 thats just under 10 percent of the working British Population and perhaps highlights the kind of work the government and the toss the have to do to support the nation but also there will be those rather of businesses who are self employed will also be say that we too need support from the treasury. Isnt pessimistic figures there is thank you very much indeed. Now the remaining 3 former minneapolis Police Officers who were present at the death of george floyd will now also face charges after initially only losing their jobs theyre now charged with aiding and abetting murder while the officer who fatally pin floyd to the ground by his neck has had his challenge raised to 2nd degree murder all face a maximum of 40 years in prison if convicted meanwhile across america the cause for justice and Police Reform continue many a peaceful but not all. Oh oh. Near the white house in washington d. C. There was also another day of protests or several demonstrations 40 targeted the security barriers that have been erected outside r. T. Americas racial bevans records from the American Capital group. 3. 100 the protesters are marching to the capitol right now here in washington d. C. And we are here in calls of no justice no peace say his name george floyd is a higher name Briana Taylor and people that have gathered here want to emphasize the fact that this is a largely peaceful protest but at the same time they are still adamant about bringing attention to those cases of Police Brutality the cases where americans have lost their lives at the hands of police yet in these cases as they have said there has been no justice and they say there will be no peace. Meanwhile here in the u. K. The house of commons leader jacob respond has reiterated that the government will not extend the bracks a transition period ensuring we leave the transition period successfully in full by the end of this year is one of the government and even more importantly the british peoples highest priority is an extension of the transition period been neither in the u. K. Is nor the europeans interest both parties want and need to conclude a deal this year to complete the transition period and extension to the transition period was bind us into future your legislation without us having any say in designing it but still having to foot the bill for payments to the e. U. Budget we must be able to design our own rules it is our in our own best interest without the constraints of the regulation so i would like to assure my own friends and the people of our shrilled that the government is delivering on this promise so to quote Margaret Thatcher will we have an extension no no no. But a former 1st minister of scotland henry mckay she has said an extension to the transition period is necessary as the country cant cope with a no deal brecks that at the same time as a Global Pandemic and economic recession. We need an extension for the whole of United Kingdom but it would be simply insane and to take the kind damage that weve got a Health Emergency the economic recession that weve got which could get much worse and then i dont another adventure another level of crisis when we dont need to this is not about rewriting the brics that result that what its saying to the government stop being distracted by brecks it and start to concentrate on the kind demick and when you think about the economic consequences why would any country want to leave the European Union i tried and trusted partner over many decades about solidarity about trade and noble and position where we want to leave at a time of crisis in the u. K. And even more problematic possibly try and have a consolation prize in arrangement with donald trump whos a very unreliable president at this particular time so all in all i think we should keep the pressure on par with johnson to do the same thing to allow him to concentrate on the big priority which is the pandemic indeed that its unlikely in terms of scotland itself though isnt it that the e. U. Would grant a Scottish Army extension the u. K. Is supposed to leave as gone isnt it and it i mean and you know the rules of the European Union dont commit up but what i think is important is that there are many people in england many local authorities many regions weve got wales got Northern Ireland or scotland we should all be applying the pressure because see the great problem about reese marg bar the johnson they still think theyre campaigning my advice to them is to start governing and what the United Kingdom needs now is not theres that venture with no destination in sight what we need to do is deal with a pandemic deal with the economic recession and then in a year 2 years trying to conclude the arrangements with the European Union its not a boat rewriting that breaks it deal the deal has been. Cut the guy has been cast and what weve got to do know to say to the british people look do you want 3 crises do you. In a pandemic you want to recession or do you want another European Union crisis dont do porn you thought was johns you should not be playing politics with the people of britain at a time when theyre facing the biggest challenge this hard since 1945 or meanwhile a government body claim scotlands Frontline Services could be in trouble it suggested the countrys councils are facing a 100000000 pound black hole ministers in scotland have been warned the test and protect program as well as key worker hubs and schools could all be at risk councils and scotland have been key in implementing measures in the battle against coronavirus scottish local authorities president Alison Everson claims the councils need extra funding to ensure they can cope with the additional pressures she added they were already severely underfunded before the pandemic began what to discuss this im joined by a member of the Scottish Parliament alex nail alex thank you for joining us Scottish Councils they are just a mental in helping frontline Coronavirus Services arent they yeah absolutely and those who dont like everybody else still feeling the pinch because of the additional money that theyre required to meet the challenges of the corporate 19 but also the fact that a lot of the room a new source of resources are dried up as well Scottish Governments in the same position the u. K. Governments the same position the wills government in the same position and i think generally will be have to see is a major new initiative from the chancellor and his statement in july pretty much more money into the system including through the Scottish Government and to scottish local government he think more people are at risk from the virus because of all the financial implications. Well not necessarily because i think all the measures are being taken in the virus as overriding priority so if there is a squeeze or slightly to be or less essential services i think very much a Central Government in scotland as well as local authorities are very much focused and prioritizing the dealing with the pandemic over Everything Else and top of that also something to deal with the economic crisis arising from the pandemic crisis so these are the priorities and this is where most of the money is going to continue to be spain but as you say that i mean not only the Scottish Councils been underfunded during the pandemic its been a vast national strain on resources hasnt it oh absolutely thats why the bank of england is printing another 200000000000 pounds worth of money for the u. K. Government because its too orderly we can fund the necessities of the pandemic and then the latest estimate another 132000000000 required to deal with the economic crisis now my view is that we should continue to print money as long as necessary because quite frankly the chances of any inflation at the moment are very slim indeed particularly given the very high levels of unemployment were likely to suffer over the rest of this year and well into next year so we do know why on the u. K. Government unfortunately were all i when the u. K. Government to the movement along with the bank of england printing the money both for the rest of the u. K. As well as the scotland issue is there and he says that the problem started even before the Global Crisis began didnt it. Well over 10 years of the every day day unfortunately that has been a disaster not just for scottish local government and the Scottish Government has been a disaster for the whole of the u. K. And renault before the pandemic having to pick up the tab for 10 years of hysteria take under George Osborne it must get done in history as one of the worst chancellors ever and were having to do without one of the reasons i think why so many poorer people are dying from the coven 19 is because they havent had the kind of support they should have had over the last 10 years or so and a lot of these people are living hand to mouth unable to afford the same tools of life so its only natural that their bodies are we can because they havent had the economic and Financial Support for the last 10 years it is there were Going Forward that a case of support what can the government doing westminster or what more can the Government Data help. Well there has to me the money available that actually 200000000000 pounds from the bank of england has to go into the funding system the throughout the United Kingdom including to scotland and that has to be used to do 32 things 1st of all it has to be used to deal with a pandemic because this pandemic is not going to be over by the end of next month is going to take well into next year before really able to see the back of it if it did they were able to see the back of it and the other reason why we need that money for the United Kingdom is to deal with the economic crisis i mean Boris Johnson i had yesterday saying that every single youngster in the u. K. He will be promised an apprenticeship i agree that thats the right thing to do but it will require the money you cant do it on the cheap so the business is taking on the airplane to seize on the plane to seize both need the money to be able to do that and that just 1. 00 example of the a massive amount of investment theres going to be required to all the time the effects of 10 years of the staticky i do deal with the economic crisis arising from the pandemic a long way ahead is that i snail and i think its already us pleasure. Still to come this hour. Should i come and see the plastique shambolic unique system sometimes you can call it as a business secretary is tested for drugs virus. Under record day the number of Illegal Migrants have crossed the shallow 150 people were escorted into british waters so should the British Government we negotiate illegal migration times last week hear from both sides of the debate. No one else seemed wrong why dont we all just dont call. Me. Yet to see power does this come after. And in detroit because the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is on offer and spearing Dramatic Development the only relief im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical darren time to sit down and talk. Welcome back eagle crossings of the English Channel have hit record figures for a single day after a french naval vessel escorted more than 150 migrants into british waters this thursday groups of men women and children were seen near dover one vessel was thought to be 30 feet long and carried as many as 60 people there were 166 migrants attempting to cross the channel in total on thursday morning hitting a record 1st single day one of the boats was 1st spotted just off the french coastline and there was a score to into british waters. So should the British Government renegotiate illegal migration terms to discuss this and im joined by form that directs that party m. E. P. Nathan gale and human rights lawyer webb and con gentlemen thank you very much for joining us now i thought if i could start with you while the government is shutting down illegal ways to enter the country it also seems to be losing control of the migration crisis to the English Channel doesnt it seems that way theres and i think that what were witnessing in is that theyre actually theyre not all that they dont want to control migration illegally over the channel because if they did they would be following the protocols which are already in place which would allow them to bits and Asylum Seekers to the country in which they 1st entered the European Union so the very fact that weve got people who are fleeing from trans claim in asylum in britain would make me ask the question are these genuine Asylum Seekers are they people who have actually fled their home nations come to europe and sought refuge at the 1st point of entry in the e. U. By the people who literally just wants a consequence in and therefore they are put in their childrens lives at risk their own lives at risk of breaking the law and quite frankly if you are i cade were to get on a boat and go in the channel right now wed be arrested for breaking the law and also have had to respond to that. I mean firstly obviously i guess the basic thing to say is what we sense a humanitarian crisis more than illegal in one or other ways obviously there are moral and ethical aspects to this as well but obviously written about the law today and little one thing to generally say about this i mean 1st its a legal myth that theres any requirement for someone to claim asylum in the 1st 6 country there are 8 that just does not any better apply and now to the u. N. Charter no you know no International Refugee convention actually says that so thats the 1st thing to say but secondly and particularly britain as an island and if we were to say that people could only claim asylum and in the 1st wave country and if they come to us through a 3rd country then they shouldnt be allowed to have should be removed then i dont see how any Asylum Seeker would ever reach or unless they took a flight and then obviously you know most Asylum Seekers financially or otherwise are they able to do that legally are the average obtain a visa there is no way to obtain a visa and say you know i need to go to britain to games and can apply to britain obviously theres no way of doing that so thats the 2nd thing. And obviously in terms of the u. K. Government not being in control i dont think thats disputed brett anyone obviously thats been the case for decades now the home of this is completely out of control and it has no idea what its doing it just right or target these people and obviously you know the easiest targets is the one it targets you know people it can remove even when there are a mood when it cant be it was something it just ignored it so i mean i dont think anyone would. Disagree with the view that these crossings or any other really dangerous crossings are dangerous journeys to the u. K. Im not a complete failure of the International System humanitarian law and the home office of course yes i mean it is something that the government should be looking at but i dont think it should necessarily be with the sole purpose of we need to reduce the number of people coming out or we need to reduce the number of Asylum Seekers in the case one at all neither should we follow for example countries like australia by sending boats back to their starting point to stop people taking dangerous journeys. Well then in a way you go into actually stop places by. Being very very hard on illegal entry into the United Kingdom and sent away to stop it and if you dont then people will keep on clans in the long people keep on trying their best to get into groups and i mean look if my house was to bend down and i was to then travel all the way to live to london i live in wales travel all the way to linden jump over the wall of book and alice and sconce myself and book an imbalance because i just want its a lift i think people would agree that thats an reasonable thats not what you do when you go seek in a silent when youre seeking a refuge once you find refuge you have found that these people are coming from friends a fast wild country in the e. U. And what im concerned about sure that and i think most people should be concerned about this is that the british people are very reasonable we are not and see immigration we are not racist in any way shape or shake off. A small minority of people who are but we do believe in the rule of law we do want to see that its not chaos or chaotic and we do want to know that its fair for everybody and when people are breaking the law to get into britain because thats where they want to sit lave not because of anything in reality to do refuge or asylum because that be quite happy in france or belgium or holland or any of there because at the coming troughton what will to what will happen is pot is like you keep all the National Friends so all of these of a party is will then start to drill on these people on the British Public they will stab the sentiments in their feelings against it and we will end closing the borders altogether we will end up what happened with rex it and i know because i was a big huge pats at this i know for a fact that if the e. U. Hadnt of lets over. 1000000 people in controlled comments of britain probably wouldnt know when the brakes referendum it was up people just got better prepared and their usual a look at whats going on in the channel and i think theres actually right this is a recent honest to that for how do you respond. I mean obviously you know that ridiculous analogy at Buckingham Palace i mean i dont know what that even means to be honest im a bit secondly and we talk about the rule of law thats that youre a lawyer youre not it youve got a great its not illegal thats the whole point you know the how does someone illegally country you get to claim asylum here and i just dont understand what in the what we have because no one suggested anything that every not illegal and thats the point 02 and a recent letter entering the u. K. Illegally is a criminal offense but not if youre coming here to claim asylum so if someone came from that it says you came to sidon they would not be criminally prosecuted so it is not a crime and what you know what what nathan just said about the Public Opinion and thats the point our media the government how politicians are public figures we need to take responsibility they need to take responsibility and create awareness educate the public just because the public is afraid of Asylum Seekers or d they dont want to tighten doesnt mean we need to stop taking Asylum Seekers what that means is we need to keep welcoming these people who are putting persecution but educate the public and say look these are not the the not the enemy theyre not the other and you know people migrate people move countries people you know travel to save their lives thats what these people are doing so thats what were going to have its no archives and lets just stop everyone coming to the u. K. Our public doesnt like it at that point yet but i have to look at it as. Read and comprehend very much. Want and beagle.

For 4 days and theres not a word ordained but it foretold ordained here on this show we pretty much told you all this was going to happen years ago right stacy well i want to look at a few different you know themes Going Forward and theories that have been long present and that could explain this what were seeing in the world over the past 1020 years and that is you have this new cities trap and we see that with this growing tension between the United States and china and the fact that we outsource all our jobs to china and the 3 cities trap is the tension that arises when a rise in power is about to usurp a declining power so we do see that around the world but at the same time just as like nobody the power whoever is the power the alpha the super super imperial power they dont want to give up their power who wants to give up power right the same with on a generational scale were seeing so youre seeing what is called the 4th turning and this was written about back in 1901 they predicted actually in this theory that in the year 2020 that would be the year where it all together and they didnt even warn of this other bigger 4th turning coming with the 3 cities trap but here we have the generation
