do you think that's the right way for britain to go? there's a lot of talk about indo—pacific, whatever that means, and a tilt in that direction. i think that it makes eminently good sense, for economic and other reasons, to be looking in that direction. i talked briefly about the importance of long—distance supply chains, and an awful lot of the things that we need for british industry in manufacturing and consumers come a very long way from that part of the world, and we have every interest in close relations and strong trading links to that part of the world. i don't want us to end up talking about a tilt to the east and finding we've got no resource there to actually make a difference. i think paying attention to those countries — india, china, the pacific rim countries = makes perfect sense. i don't think i would give up on the others. as you said, we've got huge economic relations with the european union. you hope it won't fall off a cliff, i think it will go down. i think we've got to keep working on that, and i don't think

in 1807 britain resolved to abolish the transatlantic slave trade. the thing that i think also needs to be said is that this was not simple altruism on the part of great britain in other words it wasn't simply the humanitarianism of the abolition movement it's that britain did not want other imperial rivals to have the benefit of slave labor when in fact they didn't. in $815.00 armed with its naval supreme a c britain imposed the cessation of the slave trade on its commercial rivals as abolition took effect among the leading european slave powers the decision gradually shut down the northern atlanta slave trade routes but it also set off fresh deportations to end within countries where slave ownership was still prevalent by grouping together the captives born on its soil the united states was also about to enter a new era of slavery a fairly small percentage of the people brought over to the americas in the slave trade actually came to north america probably 345 percent and yet by the time you get 219-182-5838 very large percentage of the a slave pop

in 1807 britain resolved to abolish the transatlantic slave trade. the thing that i think also needs to be said is that this was not simple as. truism on the part of great britain in other words it wasn't simply the humanitarianism of the abolition movement it's that britain did not want other imperial rivals to have the benefit of slave labor when in fact they didn't. in $815.00 armed with its naval supreme a c. britain imposed the cessation of the slave trade on its commercial rivals as abolition took effect among the leading european slave powers the decision gradually shut down the northern atlanta slave trade routes but it also set off fresh deportations too and within countries where slave ownership was still prevalent by grouping together the captives born on its soil the united states was also about to enter a new era of slavery a fairly small percentage of the people brought over to the americas in the slave trade actually came to north america probably 345 percent and yet by the time you get 219-182-5838 very large percentage of the a slave

well it's particularly i think painful and comes to britain because there is a british responsibility for the suffering of the palestinian which goes back to $917.00 to the balfour declaration and ever since the bulk of the gratian so many of the british decision so many many of its policy making has contributed directly to the palestinian catastrophe 948 and to the catastrophes that followed. now i know some of the british diplomats on the ground in the west bank they do sent every month a report to britain i'm sure boris johnson doesn't read these reports but these are some of these diplomats are honest people and if you read their reports you would rush to the international. criminal court to try and prosecute israel for its crimes so it's not even a matter of ignorance on the part of the british government it is knowing really knowingly that they provide this international umbrella for criminal policy of which the fully aware and i would add to this the military support of britain gives to israel some even military training in all of this of course sustaining the israeli policies

why do you think media here in britain wasn't as interested it was a r.t. is a strong a station ruptly the corp the pictures of julian assange being dragged out of the embassy by police officers the b.b.c. even reuters of course the famous footage of the sandra leased by working leaks of reuters employees being gunned down in iraq why with the median or as interested. well corporate media out were not keen on julie and really only leaks because while we could leaks and you know us and she did this not only did they expose the war crimes and the war criminals but today also define their media machinery behind it works the media will work in any way complete by not standing up to the law use said by the government in order to go to war so julian defied him to learn the stove's the media as well that they're going to fight we don't take she confronted him does why they were knocking on the julian and the issue is very very worrying that they don't see how dangerous these president east for journalists must unfold media as well in the future i understand that y

mr speaker, britain will not be the same in his absence. throughout the years, i think it's fair to say. that he wasn't the man for drizzling honey in his words. _ that trait equally applied to the advice he gave - and there was one memorable piece of advice he gave on the length- of speeches, which i dare say some members might even thinks- applies to myself. laughter. when it came to the length of speeches he advised, i "what the backside cannot endure, the brain cannot absorb." - with that timeless piece of advice from the duke of edinburgh, - i shall bring my remarks to a close. a former prime minister recalled her stay at balmoral. my husband and i, as everybody knows, enjoy walking and we were able to do some walks there and prince philip very kindly suggested a particular walk to us. so, we were very grateful for this suggestion and we set off. when we got back to the castle several hours later... laughter. ..we were told that prince philip did indeed enjoy this walk but he normally drove around it in a car. as duke of edinburgh, pri

in congress why do you think there's such little attention now paid to it is case here in britain has disappeared from british media stories. well i think that the government had really succeeded in spreading a narrative about him and by isolating him in belmarsh prison for the last 2 years and before that for several years and yet to see it with you know increasing isolation and. difficulties to communicate a public you have exceeded in spreading a narrative that she cannot defend itself against about him being a narcissist a traitor or a hacker that basically it's his responsibility to president trump was elected that that that which is a rapist and and all of this despite the fact that there's no evidence really supporting any of those claims and but the governments have really managed to turn the spotlight around and i'm speaking of the spotlight that we can express point it on then the governments and their misconduct you have taken that spotlight and turned it around and focused it on a sunday and have created a whole public discussion about a sunday while the son's case is not

virus vaccines and they've been tweaked to tackle mutations of the virus a variant this covered in britain just months ago is already the most common version of the corona virus circulating in the united states current vaccines off strong protection against these mutations but researches want to be ready to respond to new threats that emerge of course that study is being run by the national institute of health and emory university in atlanta i believe john which is where you'll based these sorts of tweaks can be achieved in a matter of weeks it's the regulators that hold back the process by months can and should that be changed. well i think they'll be a lot of urgency to find a pathway forward where we can make these changes these and adopt these regulatory changes as rapidly as we possibly can while of course maintaining the safety of the public will be receiving these vaccines you know we have annual flu vaccination now in that case every year the world health organization and other public health organizations around the world look ahead as to what may be commie but we have a different

he should go to britain because in britain slaves were free and in britain, there was an abolitionist an abolitionist movement that garrison wanted to actually create and strengthen the transitant ties with so frederick even though he now had four young children sailed. from boston to liverpool in august 1845. he said with a fellow abolitionist a white abolitionist james buffum and with a group of singers called. the and i've suddenly forgotten their name. i remembered it the hutchinson family and they were singers from new hampshire. it was four brothers and one sister and they again were very progressive in their politics and that outlook and they sailed with frederick and they attended a number of antislavery meetings with him in britain and ireland and it was the first time there had been music in these gatherings. so it was very unusual for people in britain, ireland to hear music and just i know because molly talked about one event you're going to have music and it's so appropriate because frederick was so musical. he loved music he liked to sing and in ireland as a few of the a
