1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: Time now to catch up with the UK correspondent in 2 00:00:02,440 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: the Brady Karinda, Hey jacka very well, thank you, sir. 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,720 Speaker 1: King Charles is sit to open Parliament officially. 4 00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 2: He is, and it's a big deal really because this 5 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 2: is obviously the first labor government of his reign and 6 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 2: a new prime minister just settling into the job in 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 2: kir Starmer. It's a big deal. So there'll be all 8 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 2: the pump and pageantry. He will read out all the 9 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 2: various different bits of legislation that will be brought in 10 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 2: during this term or the government has had the ambition 11 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: to bring in. There's about thirty five pieces of legislation 12 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:38,839 Speaker 2: so far already, So all eyes on Westminster tomorrow. But 13 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: Charles is looking fantastic and I think it'll be quite 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: a spectacle. 15 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 1: And if some of the legislation coming in will include 16 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,279 Speaker 1: something that will make spiking a specific criminal offense, isn't 17 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: drink spiking right? 18 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 2: Yes, So this is something really that is badly needed 19 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 2: because would you believe the police are actually using a 20 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 2: piece of law from eighteen sixty one to deal with 21 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 2: spiking at the moment, I mean, criminals move on at pace. 22 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 2: The law seems to crawl eighteen sixty one. It's some 23 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 2: branch of the Public Order Act, so going back to 24 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: the time of Queen Victoria, that is what we're looking 25 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 2: at the moment, but that will change as of tomorrow. 26 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 2: Spiking is going to be a separate, specific criminal offense. 27 00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 2: So this is when predominantly guys go to bars with 28 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: these little droplet things or whatever like or hypnol and 29 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 2: they're looking to spike women's drinks. We've seen incidents of 30 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 2: it with people being injected and men can be victims 31 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 2: as well, but it is predominantly a male offense against women. 32 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 2: We've seen syringes used, people putting drinks, spiking and what 33 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 2: have you. It's absolutely disgusting. It's so bad that in 34 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four we're using legislation from eighteen sixty one. 35 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 2: So all of that is changing as of tomorrow. 36 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: Indo, why are forty five European leaders in Oxfordshire So 37 00:01:59,360 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: this is a. 38 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: Big Actually Starmer's government have made no secret of the 39 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: fact that Britain will be rebuilding relationships in Europe. I 40 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 2: mean they were on the floor for the last few years. 41 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: Europe is looking in they see a new leader, a 42 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: new kind of political ideology and they're curious. So while 43 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 2: Britain has left the European Union, and that in itself 44 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 2: has been an absolute catastrophe for the UK, Starmer still 45 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: has Britain as a member of the European political community. 46 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 2: That can't change. Britain is still geographically in Europe and 47 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 2: will be forever. So all these European leaders are being 48 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 2: brought to Blenham Palace, which is a beautiful place actually, 49 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: if you ever ever get over this way, Jackets absolutely 50 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 2: one of the top notch destinations to go visit in Britain. 51 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 2: It's in Oxfordshire. Winston Churchill was actually born there. And 52 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 2: the plan is that forty five European leaders will arrive 53 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 2: here tomorrow. Starmer will get a look at them, they'll 54 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 2: get a look at him, and I think in particular 55 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: he wants to start building relationships and seeing what he 56 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 2: can do about myration and stopping those boats coming across 57 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 2: from France. 58 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: And is this part of the reason is in trying 59 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: to improve relationships in Europe that Kiyo Salma's reaching out 60 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: to Italy's Prime Minister, Georgia Maliiney. 61 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, so she's been a big leader on this. She's 62 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 2: a very interesting woman to watch. She is someone who 63 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 2: has surprised I think since she came into powers. She 64 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 2: had a lot of far right, kind of right wing 65 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 2: rhetoric before she got the job. She's toned a lot 66 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: of that down. She's quite smart, She's building alliances in Europe, 67 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: and she is a mover and a shaker. She is 68 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: absolutely a leader going places now. She helped change European 69 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: Union's policy on migration in the last twelve months, and 70 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: I think Starmer realizes that, you know, a lot of 71 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 2: the migrants who ultimately get on these dinghies in France 72 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: coming to the UK, their first port of entry or 73 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 2: point of entry in the Europe is the Italian islands 74 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: of Italy and off Sicily, So Starmer will want to 75 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,839 Speaker 2: speak to her. She has ambitions to have her own 76 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: offshore kind of asylum application processing center. He's already killed 77 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: Rwanda plan dead on day one, so let's see what happens. 78 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 2: But I think, you know, having had fourteen years of 79 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: everyone here being told that, you know, be suspicious of 80 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 2: Europe and we don't want to be friends with these neighbors. 81 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: There are so many problems. We've got a war in Europe, 82 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 2: right now, Jack, I think Starmer is smart enough to 83 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: realize that you can only get places if you have friends. 84 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, well said hey, thanks Cinda, you take care.
