i think the real problem u. k. has had really dating back to the global financial crisis. 2008 is it seems to have a deep inability to generate prosperity from across its regions, but also a serious inability to create the forms of jobs and the forms of employment and the forms of business which are actually wealth. creating a g d p per head is not very impressive. and the overall effect of this is u. k. finds it harder and harder to actually deliver the standard of living that many people expect from a what by other measure, the highly developed countries. so this is can manifest in increasingly threadbare public services writing child poverty levels. some scandalous examples of, of people living in conditions that the u. k. would not that long ago considered to be sort of shameful, instances belonging to sort of a 2nd to economic nation. so, so by so many social measures, certainly, i'd also measure the productivity group and business investment u. k is failing badly, is just that it also has a very long history

our unemployment level is lower than the u. k. as a whole. and when i was growing up, the number of people who are out of the workplace because of sickness, you can on weekly inactive, was the highest in the u. k. and raising and over 20 years of devolution, it's come down and down. so we are not in bad shape despite the head doings we face and what are they doing is creating a new economy, foils, and renewable energy. means that after a period in which our geography was against us, far out from the western edge of europe, long supply chains, expensive ways of moving goods and jobs. now are geography is on our side. we have wind because we faced the atlantic. we have rain as you know, every now and then, but we have solar and we have wave power as well. 56 percent of all the electricity we use in wales this year will be generated from renewable sources. that will be 70 percent by the end of this decades. and in those new industries, those industries will secure energy that is safe. that is secure. that deals with climate change phase, the fut

i mean over in the u. k. there is, there is a comparison being made to of course, the infamous winter of discontent. that was back in the 19 seventy's when there was really a general sense of chaos that turn to political disaster effectively for, for the labor government. do you agree with that comparison? is that where things are heavy the same expression is used now again, i'm afraid winter of discontent, but we have had a summer of discontent as well. so it's been lost in for quite some time. and the real worries that we don't seem to be getting nearer to any solution. and one of the interesting things, of course, about what's happening now, which is slightly different. what was the case before? is that in that winter of discontent in the seventy's, what we saw was that it was private sector workers who went on strike 1st and they were quite unionized at the time, particularly the automotive industry. and then he spread to other sectors. and what we're seeing here is, of course, now with that, with united

is that the u. k. was aware of the problems with the u. k. determination to provide unconditional support to the u. s. meant there was no attempt to reconsider the approach. and those are a bit more unkind may say, and it relates to what you're saying earlier. nicky, about the streets of britain at least some of that billions of dollars worth of so called aid may have a help the heroine trade. and certainly for perhaps some ex veterans of forces there. and the homeless in the vulnerable numbers which are increasing on britain streets is written self sanctions itself. they may only have heroin to keep them warm. so the report doesn't quite mention that aspect to the billions of dollars wasted in afghanistan. even if today, the international committee of the red cross says that the amount nutrition cases at their $33.00 hospitals is afghans done in morris double what it was last year? no one's talking about money for afghanistan. well, joe biden stole the money from afghan central bank to give to $911.00 victims. and what do you make of the

and what we've got in the u. k. of course, is we, having interest rates going up at the same time as a tax increases happening and a tightening generally in both the, the monetary and fiscal stance and real disposable incomes falling at the highest rates ever and other other countries that are similarly affected. but what we seen in europe, and i think that's going to be an increasing contrast, is that the european countries are not doing the same the same. so yes, interest rates are going up, but they're supporting quite significantly. there households a lot more that seems to be the case in the u. k. and i think that's probably going to be a focus of attention in the months ahead. jordan, what happens of these strikes are and the rallies that you're holding don't bring about the changes that you are demanding. thank you my, you know, we still be able to see at the front door. no, we still want to be outside with the workers, so we're going to, we're only going to be up in the usual work with always even make sure

some money raised to u. k. decisions some money raised to wash decisions. that's the right one for me. you're the leader of the labor party in wales, as well as as 1st mr. the labor party, of course, is the, is her majesty's opposition nationally at, throughout the u. k. and the government in westminster is a conservative lead government. is there any friction there between the fact that that the whales is led by the labor party and the rest of the country is being governed by the conservatives? when it does lead to tensions, the degree of tension tends to depend on the nature of a government at westminster. we've lived through 12 years now of conservative government at some points. that's been a relatively been in relationship. at other times, it's be more conflict. you all a great deal depends upon the degree to which a westminster government respects the div aleutian settlement, not just in relation to wales, but scotland and northern ireland as well. the reason i'm asking all of this is because recently there was a controversy where, where you lost your

that wasn't the case more people wanted to leave the stay in the u. k . and yet, and yet wales was receiving a lot of money from, from the you that that's going to be heard. oh, leaving the european union is an actor. you can make self hom. but it's largely because of the way we've left the european union. once people in wales had voted to leave, my focus was never on the fact abraxas because that had been decided. but the form of rex it, we ended up with a hard dest, former bracket with a severing of economic relationships with damage done to the relationships between the united kingdom and our closest. and most importantly, but they was a different way of leaving the european union where we would have removed ourselves from the political mechanisms, but stayed in the single market. stayed in the customs union, protected the interests of working people and firms in wales. we chose not to do it that way or the u. k. government chose not to do it that way. and the hum, it causes the economy. whales is rio and continues every day. so you, your, you lead the

because it illustrates in great detail that you know, the u. k or the english lead u. k. isn't really interested in a partnership of equals, it will decide, you know, whether the scottish people themselves were a very distinct, no nation and very ancient culture themselves, their own language, you know, etc. they will decide in london whether the people of scotland even decide to leave the united kingdom, or to know, speak a lot about democracy, but when it comes to scotland, it seems to apply a double standard. why do you think that is why they feel that way about scotland? well, you know, it's a very good point. if scotland was to secede from united kingdom, would spell the end for the united kingdom, essentially. and that is not a headache. i think the british parliament in london once at the moment, i mean you've got a similar distance in the north of orland where for the 1st time you have a catholic majority which could potentially be a pro nationalist, a majority on the island of r as well which could spell the end for northern ireland, and if scotland was to follow

it illustrates in great detail and that you know, the u. k. are the english lead u. k. isn't really interested in a partnership of equals, it will decide whether the scottish people themselves, who are a very distinct and you know, nation and very ancient culture themselves, their own language, you know, et cetera. they will decide in london whether the people of scotland can even decide to leave the united kingdom breaks. it has been a huge issue in scotland, where a majority of the scottish population voted against practice. they wanted to remain in it, so they see themselves been denied that really to determine their own direction economically, culturally as well. i mean, there are some devolve iris in the hollywood and parliament which was where devolved from london in 1009 foot. things like defense that you know, policy regarding doing trade, overseas, etc. the key and platforms and pillars of real state are still denied the people of scotland and breck. so i think has really brought that into focus for the many thanks for keeping us company here on, on the interna

here in the u. k. in the us and brazil. interestingly, representatives of nigeria wanted to appear here in london at the sentencing hearing and make a claim for compensation as the victim of those crimes which deprived the state of tax revenue. they were told that they could have that only the prosecution, the serious fraud office and the defense, namely glen court could actually make submission so that a request for compensation will have to be for another date protesters and the u. k . have rarely downside an immigration facility. they say they're concerned about the well being of those lockton side home secretary, sewage problem and has been criticized under the conditions that minced and migrant processing center. migrants are meant to be held there for short periods during security and identity checks, but some have been stuck for weeks to ecuador. now we're another 5 police officers have been killed by a drug gangs. it's the latest in a string of attacks and the country officials have responded t

now the u. k home secretary did approve the extradition of julian assange, because u. s. officials have promised to treat him humanely, whatever that means. so at the moment, julianna's on his legal team is appealing that decision that he would be extradited to the united states. american legal and media analyst, lionel says it's unclear why the western media is suddenly changing its tune about assange. but the previous smears against him should not be forgotten. if you listen to this, absolutely implicit in feckless commentary by today's a canoe shanty. just making fun of the way he looks, you know why he looks like that. let me tell you, it's called torture. that's why you look like that. and i like to see any of those brave journalist see if they can withstand a week of this. this is something which absolutely galls me, julian assigned whether you like him or not, whether you care for his personality is a hero. something must be happening. why all of a sudden, what changed? what information are they privy to? what sensibility were they exposed to that made them say,

what's the u. k. last access to with breaks it was the dublin, negotiate the dublin regulation, which provided them with an opportunity to return people who cross the channel to other countries. and that's not provided for something like that. a readmission agreement isn't provided for within the current arrangements. there also isn't any provision for things like pathways for people who are seeking to reunify with family in the u. k. or are seeking to, to submit an a file an application to enter without doing a channel crossing. so additional funding is welcome, i'm sure, but i what we're really fill, latching is policy solutions. suzanne fresca, senior policy analyst of the migration policy institute. thank you for your insights. natasha. a peerage. miss r has becomes the venus 1st female president. after winning a run off election, most are as a lawyer informs data privacy commissioner. she beat center, right, former foreign minister, angelo gar, winning nearly 54 percent of the vote. gosh, for lub

the report finds that the u. k. a to afghanistan, feel to achieve its primary goal of building a viable state. and that the you case decision to prioritize. partnership with the united states led to some poor choices on the use of aid which contributed to the ultimate failure of the international coalitions state building approach. according to the report, the british government spent a total of $3500000000.00 pounds on assistance to afghanistan. however, the organization rated the u. k. actions as unsatisfactory and most areas, although with some positive results. the government has also been criticized for as cooperation with the u. s. which the report was that led to some poor choices. after withdrawing from afghanistan, the u. k. concentrated assets on ukraine, the country has already given 2300000000 pounds and military assistance to key if the purchase government is also announced that it will send helicopters to ukraine for the 1st time. it comes off the u. k. prime minister, where she's soon, i cannot stay n

they are supporting m u k. terrorists. then me k terrorist called in the 1980s murdered, 17000 iranians. then they went to iraq and fought for saddam hussein against their own country. and they have, they've had and have offices and bases across europe. they have a huge bass in albania, and nato country. from there they carry out online activities against you. i was a huge, full farm where they promote death and destruction and iran misinformation. they from promot sectarianism. and they tried to create divide divisions between different ethnic groups. all of these are fine because they are in line with nato policy against iran. so terrorists, whether they're based in rocky, northern iraq, in the kurdish areas, or whether they're the m u k. or whether they're based in no man's land and pockets on, alongside the running water. all of these are fine. they can kill all they want. they can carry out riots and iran all they want. but if a single media in iran defense iran, they shut it down when it comes to you're putting down

but in the u. k. so while additions tend to believe russia and not themselves for the current condition, for the current downfall in proteins economy. the last thing impact on supply chains is make goods more expensive and fuel inflation. and this has been worsened by a made in russia energy crisis. what india hasn't sanctioned, what thought node with russia? and remember, india has overtaken britain and become the 5th largest economy in the was. and it's project it is going to be even more substantial in the coming india will witness an unprecedented explosion in economic growth in opportunities from a 3 trillion dollars economy. india will grow to be a 40 trillion dollars economy by 2047 ranking among the top 3 economies of the world in your working life. and there is a can always say offense, we can see a lot of decisions going on all around the world. but you see the lot of employment being generated on the government is taking a lot of steps in this faith. the economic growth is expected to be ve

the u. k. has left is live by germany and france, and so far it has been, it has been a punching bag for, for london, and washington and even kia. and i think that the european public, large, or part of public, especially in germany and france, are probably sick and tired of that. we can see that already happening in the czech republic where people are against the war hysteria that was imposed on the european countries by nate hang the united kingdom, especially. and experiments are literally bullying germany, especially france as well as some other countries. there bullying them into submission. i good now that says we have this escalation of war in eastern europe. it is quite obvious what why great britain lacked the sinking ship. i think that the anglo american coalition really see a saw that the germany was getting too powerful and the side effect of this war. and maybe the main goal of the, of the, of the old anglo saxon coalition, a british america, americans and, and some of the former c

if the u. k became neutral, ended 8 sanctions against russia. we would have an eating at the recession entity isis with gary down and the whole economy position for the u. k. would continue, but you wouldn't save us in the old mainstream media because for some reason the government has got a grip of media and open debate and discussion on their city is as good as benz. ah, hi, this the latest. ah, it's all. ready the old, reckless behavior piracy soon. mack will at last get people to question this crazy. you frighten policy ah, which he's running the company free reading people's likelihoods. so i, i hope maybe he's just gone a little bit to fall on. people will say ny bull. well, mr. webber certainly, you know, you mentioned the mainstream media if you might, ago, i was talking to a colleague here at auto earlier today and just saying that the mainstream media is barely showing a, just a touch of these protests. we're seeing all over europe, right. now, inflationary crisis, the major drop in the standard of living as well, the mainstream media
