1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: Let's got it. Inde Brady, a UK correspondent who's with

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:03,520
Speaker 1: us in the welcome.

3
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,119
Speaker 2: Hey Ryan, good to speak to you again.

4
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 1: And to you too. What's been the reaction to Rachel Raise,

5
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, the lovely Labor Chancellor of the EXCHEQA and

6
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: some pretty fetcher like cats.

7
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 2: Yes, so she's gone after people on sickness and disability benefits.

8
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,360
Speaker 2: That's all being reduced, loads of cuts and spending, and

9
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 2: she hasn't ruled out the fact that taxes may have

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: to rise. So look, I think it very much depends

11
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,160
Speaker 2: on which side of the political offence people sit on.

12
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 2: A lot of people are criticizing her. A lot of

13
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 2: conservatives are saying that this is awful. She will say

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: in turn that she is dealing with the mess labor

15
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 2: inheritage July of last year. I think the fact remains

16
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: the UK economy is limping along. She has huge conundrums

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,200
Speaker 2: that I'm struggling to see where the answer is going

18
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 2: to come from. Nine point two million people of working

19
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: age in this country are not in work. They're not

20
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: doing anything, they're not paying tax, they're not contributing to

21
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: the economy. Nine point two million people. Now we have

22
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 2: ten percent of the working age population who are on

23
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: sickness and disability benefits. So she has I don't know

24
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: what has gone wrong in Britain, but she seems to

25
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: be adamant that the decisions she's making today will bear

26
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 2: fruit five or six years down the line. Politically, I

27
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: wonder will she be chancellor in five or six months?

28
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, to be feared to that, as you say,

29
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: rock and a hard place, really, isn't it when when

30
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: you're in here it's something like that? And just so

31
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: recently as well, now Trump's terrorists on cars. What will

32
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: this do to the UK? Could it actually wipe you? Growth?

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 2: Well, growth is basically zero at the moment and has

34
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: been from months and months on end, and that is

35
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: the challenge for Reeves. She's saying that she wants to

36
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 2: stimulate growth and all these cuts and changes that she's

37
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 2: making now will bring growth eventually. Step forward. Donald Trump,

38
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: he has announced that next one, Wednesday's Liberation Day, and

39
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 2: the plan is that he will whack twenty five percent

40
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: tariffs on all manufactured cars coming into the United States.

41
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 2: So what that means for the UK is very very

42
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: bad news indeed, because there's about thirty billion dollars worth

43
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,679
Speaker 2: of deals from the car manufacturing sector here that go

44
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 2: to the United States. The EU is the number one

45
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 2: market European Union. Britain's second biggest market for all of

46
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: the vehicles that transports is the US. Twenty twenty four,

47
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: the UK sold one hundred and one thousand units to America.

48
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: And if he puts that tariffin as of next Wednesday,

49
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 2: that it just will be untenable and that will send

50
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 2: Britain in a tail spin back into a recession.

51
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: Goodness, mate, doesn't the news just doesn't get better for

52
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 1: Rachel Race, does it? The man that's been banned from

53
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: an entire county for stealing.

54
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 2: What Cabri's cream eggs. So, I don't know if you

55
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: have them in New Zealand, but they're a nice little treat.

56
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: They're the size of an actual egg that you would

57
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 2: crack open and make an omelet with kids. Loved them,

58
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,639
Speaker 2: and they're getting more expensive like everything else in our shops.

59
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: This guy, he's twenty six years of age from the

60
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 2: Peterborough area. His name is Dion de Grout. He walked

61
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 2: into Tesco supermarket and he left without paying with three

62
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 2: hundred and twenty five Cabrey's Cream eggs. Now, one of

63
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 2: the shop assistants was observing what this guy was doing,

64
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: ran after him, and as luck would have it, a

65
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: police patrol car was going right past the street. She

66
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 2: flagged down the police patrol car. They got out, they

67
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: stopped this guy. They put cuffs on him and you

68
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: can see on the body cam footage the officer says,

69
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: what have we got here, and the bloke says, Cabrey's

70
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: cream eggs. So they sit him down. They count them out,

71
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: three hundred and twenty five cream eggs, about four hundred

72
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 2: and fifty dollars worth of chocolates, and this guy thought

73
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 2: this was all okay. So he has avoided a prison sentence.

74
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 2: The judge says he's going to have a suspended sentence.

75
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 2: He will do some community work, he will repay the money.

76
00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: The goods are gone back obviously, but he now will

77
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 2: be banned from the entire county of Cambridgeshire for three

78
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,480
Speaker 2: months in total. So there you go.

79
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: It's a lot of eggs, a lot of eiggs. I'd

80
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: hate to think how many easts does it take you
