K. Prime ministers deadline to see if the talks are worth continuing but it does appear that progress is a long way off the french president s remarks on fishing are anything to go by. Yes sir Boris Johnson the u. K. Prime minister setting this is the deadline for a post break sit trade deal but it seems the e. U. Leaders are once again not on the same page as the u. K. Theyve made it clear that more talks more negotiations may be needed and that means that you might be asking for more time more weeks ahead to continue discussions and try and reach an agreement however the message from e. U. Leaders such as the french president a man or mark raga arrived in brussels a short while ago is that they will not be a deal at any cost no deal at any cost because era leaders say it is absolutely imperative that certain sticking points and issues are ironed out for a deal to be made that those main sticking points have remained pretty much the same over the past few weeks and months still we are talking about the level Playing Field the e. U. Wants assurances from the u. K. That the e. U. Single market would not be undercut in the future by any unfair competition the e. U. Still wants to try and agree on what the rules the governance rules would be for the deal how exactly would all sides actually here to any future deal how would it be policed if you want to put it that way and then this contentious issue of fishing which just doesnt seem to go away the u. K. Says that it is now going to be a sovereign nation and therefore should have full access to its own waters. Coastal nations including france have been very adamant that for centuries and decades since the you was actually formed the fishing communities on both sides of the channel have fished in each others waters and they want to continue so again those sticking points continue to be there and that is why leaders of called on Michel Barnier the brakes a negotiator for the e. U. To intensify talks and that seems to suggest that they will go on well beyond this summit.

A years democratic Vice President ial candidate can let her suspended all in person events after her Campaign Members tested positive for cope with 19 harris was shuttled to travel to the battleground state of North Carolina on thursday with harris and still biden has been tested those results have come back negative for a White House Correspondent Kimberly Harkat joins us now i cant believe buys in the Harris Campaign has made a very overt show of her care for we are when it comes to covert 19 but this just goes to show you cant be too careful can you. Yeah thats exactly right you know you were call that become a harris had announced after she has been serving as a senator for the amy kone beret hearings that she was going to continue those proceedings on capitol hill. Virtually that in other words what she was going to do is travel to North Carolina but it was when the media was assembled waiting for her arrival of the airport that they realized that something was not quite right and it wasnt long after that a member of the Campaign Said the event had been canceled due to the fact that there had been 2 members of the campaign one staff member of the Communications Director and one non staff member a flight crew member that have both tested positive now what were hearing from the campaign is that come a harris has not been in close proximity to these individuals 48 hours prior she was not standing a meter away for more than 15 minutes and this is what the c. D. C. Would require for quarantine but since she has not been in those scenarios and as you mentioned the campaign taking a lot of precautions they dont feel that there is this need to some quarantine but again theyre taking precautions in order to be doubly sure not only has come a harris tested negative twice on wednesday but she is going to receive another test today now in terms of the sort of impact moving forward what we can tell you is that she will continue to reach out to voters virtually but again shes going to be on the ground until sunday and that will also include her husband doug and kimberly.

Theres no question that this is a problem when you are less than 3 weeks from election day and this is exactly what donald trump exhibit is well its this need to balance in the sort of 11th hour of the campaign but at the same time ensuring that no one else is infected given the fact that there is this pandemic going on and remember that coming to harris is part of the ticket with a gentleman joe biden who of course is going to be 78 years old 77 right now and so this is a concern for anyone of advanced age these are considered Underlying Health conditions and so the question becomes you know what kind of joint events can be done theres that need for the photo op of the 2 together that wont be able to happen until they can be absolutely sure that she is it no risk to her running mate so this is going to have an impact but fortunately we live in this Virtual World now where a lot of it can be done remotely but at the same time it really doesnt substitute for that in person close contact kind of personal feeling with the voter but the bottom line is these are different times this is a Different Campaign than weve ever seen before due to the pen demick and most americans are pretty understanding and we should also point out most americans are pretty decided who theyre going to vote for at this point so again its a very small fraction of the voting populace that is going to be affected by this but still every vote matters when a country is this divided because indeed
