1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondence with US Hallo, Inda. 2 00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 2: Hey, heaven great speak to again. 3 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: So Europe wants the US jets and Romania doesn't. 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the latest idea about Ukrainian security. And 5 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 2: also the people of Romania have recent history with what 6 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: was the Soviet Union invading They don't want to be reinvaded. Now. NATO, 7 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 2: it turns out, is building its largest airbase in Romania. 8 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,159 Speaker 2: And after all of these zoom calls and meetings of 9 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 2: the Coalition of the Willing this week, the latest idea 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 2: they're proposing for the Americans to get involved with is Okay. 11 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 2: They're not categorically not going to put American troops on 12 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 2: the ground in Ukraine. However, would you like to send 13 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,599 Speaker 2: over some very sophisticated jets that we could put at 14 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 2: this airbase we're building in Romania and that would provide 15 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 2: security for the Ukrainians and also be very much welcomed 16 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 2: by the Romanians. JD Vance, however, has weighed in and said, 17 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 2: whatever happens, Europe will be paying for it. So that's 18 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 2: not a no, it's not a no, but it's interestingly 19 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,559 Speaker 2: we haven't heard from Trump yet on this, but Vance 20 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 2: for someone who professes to love Europe and was on 21 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: holidays in England just last week. He certainly never weighs 22 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 2: in with anything positive to say about Europe, or its people, 23 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 2: or its leaders, or its security. But perhaps the Americans 24 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 2: do have a point that everyone in Europe needs to 25 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: start stepping up in pain for the continent's defense. 26 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, that certainly seems to be a running theme there, 27 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: doesn't it. Now you guys have had a little surge 28 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: in your inflation. What's caused it? 29 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 2: Would you believe? It increases to airfares, chocolate, coffee and 30 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 2: other food items. So we've gone up to three point 31 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 2: eight percent in the UK. Now with inflation, it's worrying 32 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 2: because the Bank of England always sets a target of 33 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: two percent, and we're now pushing towards four. They reckon 34 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: we'll hit four percent sometimes late September, and this is 35 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: going to have a impact on anyone with a mortgage 36 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,919 Speaker 2: because the Bank of England had been cutting interest rates 37 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: and the feeling now is that if inflation hits four percent, 38 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 2: they won't be able to get away with another interest 39 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 2: rate cut before Christmas. 40 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: So is the feeling that the interest rate surge is 41 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: not a short lived thing. This is actually sticky. 42 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 2: I think it is sticky. With inflation, it's not good. 43 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: But look when the whole Ukraine War happened and Russia's 44 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 2: illegal invasion, inflation went up to eleven percent. So we 45 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: have got it under control. It's not as bad as 46 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: what it was three and a half years ago. 47 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's good. Okay, what's going wrong with this dolphin? 48 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: So, Reggie the dolphin has popped up off the coast 49 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,880 Speaker 2: of Dorset, a place called Lime Bay. And on the 50 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 2: face of it, when you see the social media videos 51 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 2: and the pictures and the world we live in now, 52 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 2: everyone is going to Line Bay to swim with a dolphin. However, 53 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: marine wildlife charities and experts have come out and said 54 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 2: that they are quite concerned about how close people are 55 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 2: getting to the dolphin, reminding them that you know, they 56 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 2: can grow to thirteen feet in length, they can weigh 57 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: five hundred kilos, and they're a wild animal. They've also 58 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 2: noticed some scarring on the dolphins body, which they believe 59 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: was called because years ago by a propeller from a boat. 60 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: And they're just saying that people don't get in the 61 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: water with the dolphin, don't swim with it. I don't know. 62 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,680 Speaker 2: Part of me thinks they're being killed joys and then 63 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 2: it's like basic commons. 64 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: When have you ever heard of a dolphin hurting someone exactly? 65 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 2: Their charities are saying that they believe the dolphin has 66 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: been targeting women in wet suits and deliberately smashing into them. 67 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 2: Bus Yeah. Look, I haven't seen any video evidence of this. 68 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: All I've seen is lots of playful pictures of dolphins. 69 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: I mean, we were out on a boat yesterday off 70 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: the west coast of Ireland and we saw dolphins off 71 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: in Ish Boffin, one of the Irish islands off Galway, 72 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 2: and everyone, you know, just the joy a dolphin in 73 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: the sea brings to people amazing, amazing. And by the way, 74 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: we ran into a keywig earl yesterday in the bar 75 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: working in the pub on in Ish Boffin, a girl 76 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 2: from Rota Rua having her absolute best summer ever.
