1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: Here that tell us about the metallica costs. Please, I'm waiting, okay, 2 00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,480 Speaker 1: I promise you'll do it straight after INDUS. Sorry I 3 00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: have kept you waiting. Fourteen away from seven Indo Brady's 4 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: with US UK correspondent evening Inda. 5 00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:11,200 Speaker 2: Hey, Heather, great to speak to you. 6 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: I am shocked at how much cheese was stolen. 7 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, and the reaction. This is an incredible story for 8 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 2: anyone who hasn't followed it. About twenty two tons of top, 9 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 2: top class Welsh and English cheddar has been stolen by 10 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 2: scammers in London. Now. The victims of all this is 11 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,520 Speaker 2: a company called Neil's Yard. They offer a very very 12 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 2: good British dairy produce out of London. Six hundred thousand 13 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: dollars gone. It's twenty two tons of cheese. And this 14 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 2: was a very elaborate crime started in July the name 15 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 2: of a person who's very well known in the cheese 16 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:53,200 Speaker 2: industry in Europe, a French person. They imitated them and 17 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 2: they knew a lot about the cheese sector, how deals 18 00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 2: are put together, how cheese is distributed, financed, and ultimately 19 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,279 Speaker 2: they had delivery of twenty two tons of top class 20 00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 2: cheddar to a warehouse in London and the payment never 21 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,959 Speaker 2: followed through. And of course then at that point the 22 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 2: company Neil's Yard, were ringing this French person who eventually 23 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 2: when they got hold of the real person, they said, no, no, no, 24 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 2: I've never ordered twenty two tons of cheese off you, 25 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,479 Speaker 2: and they realized it was the victim of a very 26 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: elaborate scam. So police are on the case and what's 27 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: happened now is Neil's Yard, to their credit, they have 28 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 2: paid every single producer who provided the cheese. These are 29 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,840 Speaker 2: small producers, one in Wales, two in England, and the 30 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 2: public reaction has been extraordinary. But there you go, there's 31 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 2: an awful lot of money in posh cheese. 32 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: Who I mean, like, how if you're the receiver, if 33 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: you're the scanner who's got twenty two tons of cheese, 34 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: how on earth are you going to sell that and 35 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: make a buck off it. 36 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: I think it's out of the UK already. I think 37 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: it was gone the next day. Apparently it can be 38 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: stored in the right conditions for eighteen months. The newspapers 39 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: reckon this is organized and it could be on its 40 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: way to Russia as we speak. 41 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: Who would have thought you could make the cheese off 42 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: the cheese. Listen. Are you going to get pained by 43 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: the Texas tomorrow? Are you in trouble? 44 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 2: I think every single person in the UK is in 45 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 2: for a difficult day tomorrow and the budget comes. Rachel 46 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 2: Reeves and Kirs Starmer have been quite blunt about this. 47 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: They claim they inherited a forty four billion dollar black 48 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: hole in public finances from the Conservatives, and Starmer is 49 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: saying that right, we're fixing this now. We're not going 50 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 2: to kick the can down the road. He says that's 51 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 2: been going on for years and years, duping the British public. 52 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: So Starmer is biting the bullet. And I think every 53 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: single person who's working or has shares or stocks or 54 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: inheritance tax to pay, everyone will be paying more tomorrow. 55 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 2: I see they're even putting up bus fares. So bus 56 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: fares across the UK are counted four dollars. The whisper 57 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 2: is tomorrow they go up to six dollars, so no 58 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: one will escape the pain it is happening tomorrow. 59 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: Is it just going to make an unpopular man even 60 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: less popular? 61 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 2: Look, I think he doesn't care about popularity because he's 62 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 2: got another four and a half years. But ultimately Britain 63 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: needs to be fixed. National health services in absolute shambles. 64 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: The roads I've driven on roads in Kenya with fewer 65 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,839 Speaker 2: potholes than some places in Oxfordshire. You know they've left 66 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: a mess. And Starmer says he's the man to fix it. 67 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: But I think it will dent his popularity, no doubt 68 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: about that. Rachel Reeves Reaves Britain's first ever female chancellor. 69 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 2: What a way to make your announcement with a first 70 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: labor budget in fifteen years? 71 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: Yeah too right? Hey was this manager of menu de dead. 72 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 2: Well? The results I think would tell you that he 73 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: was Manchester United to be in fourteenth place out of 74 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: twenty in the Premier League table. They used to walk 75 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 2: this league for years and years under Alex Ferguson. The 76 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 2: thing I'm shocked about is how much compensation he's due. 77 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: Apparently twenty six mil end z. That was what was 78 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: left on his contract and that is what they're going 79 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 2: to have to pay, and I tell you you'll be 80 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: very angry about that. Heather, the two hundred and fifty 81 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: office and canteen staff and background people who got the 82 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: sack in the summer in this cost saving measure. I 83 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 2: mean getting rid of two hundred and fifty ordinary people 84 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 2: that can't come anywhere near what they're paying this guy 85 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 2: in compensation. But ultimately Manchester United are way way off 86 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 2: the pace. I mean, big global, once proud name that 87 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: dominated English soccer and now they're just a minor club. 88 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, Giza, it is quite a fall from grace. I 89 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: thanks Indy, appreciated into Brady UK correspond. 90 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: For more from Hither Duplessy Allen Drive, listen live to 91 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 2: news talks.
