His comments 33 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: echo those of President Biden, who says that he also 34 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: believes an agreement can be reached. 35 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 4: I can't fident dead we'll get the agreement on the budget. 36 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 4: Miracle will not default, and every leader in the room 37 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 4: which turns the consequences we failed up payer bills and 38 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 4: it would be catastrophic for the for American econmate. 39 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: On Tuesday, Biden and congressional leaders agreed to a new 40 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: narrower round of staff level talks. Both sides say that 41 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: the framework increases the prospect of reaching a partisan deal 42 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: to avoid an unprecedented US default. 43 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 2: Deutsche Bank has agreed to pay seventy five million dollars 44 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: to settle a lawsuit from victims of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse. 45 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 2: The suit accuses the German banker facilitating Epstein's sex traffic operation. 46 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: JP Morgan is still fighting the suit against it, one 47 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 2: of three involving lenders to Epstein. Deutsche Bank hasn't admitted 48 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: to any wrongdoing and says it has bolstered its controls. 49 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: Bluemberger has learned that Meta Platforms is to be handed 50 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: a record privacy find by the European Union. The figure 51 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 1: eclipses the near seven hundred and fifty million euro penalty 52 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 1: imposed on Amazon. Speaking to us in April, Ireland's Data 53 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 1: Commissioner Helen Dixon, who oversees ease EU compliance for most 54 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: Silicon Valley firms, told us that they aren't afraid to 55 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: take action. 56 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 7: We are a match for the richest companies in the world, 57 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 7: and we've demonstrated that through key cases that have already 58 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 7: been concluded and through litigation that has already happened. Of course, 59 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 7: it's a never ending battle and the scale is vast. 60 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:25,399 Speaker 1: Ireland's Data Protection Commissioner will punish the owner of Facebook 61 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: and Instagram for failing to protect users' data from the 62 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: prying eyes of US security services. 63 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: The European Union is moving closer to finalizing a memorandum 64 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: with the United Kingdom on financial regulation. The EU's Executive 65 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: Arm has adopted a long delayed draft agreement on how 66 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 2: financial regulators communicate post Brexit. If the agreement wins approval 67 00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: from EU member states and is finalized by the European Commission, 68 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: it would be a massive boost for London. The capital 69 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: has made little progress since leaving the block in securing 70 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: agreements for how its lucrative financial sector will interact with 71 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: its lone just trading partner. And there are top stories 72 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 2: this morning. 73 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll be going live to Hiroshima and Japan in 74 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: just a moment to speak to our correspondent there. But 75 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: I first want to just mention the issue around commercial 76 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: real estate. We've been worried that this might be the 77 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: quarter when things would start to move, and there are 78 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: a number of stories on Bloomberg this morning that I 79 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: think point to that and underline it. So Jack Siders 80 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: has been writing about the European property market. The woes 81 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: beginning to roll in Vienna becoming the weakest housing market 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 1: amongst major European capitals, posting a twelve point two percent drop. Also, 83 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 1: this comes as US commercial property. There was data apped 84 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: yesterday and that is at the weakest level since twenty 85 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: and eleven. So there are quite a few issues commercial 86 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: and also kind of domestic property. 87 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and more bad news for commercial landlords from Deutsche Bank. 88 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 2: It's looking to cut forty percent to Frankfurt offices on 89 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: remote work. Basically it's cutting off a space to save 90 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,240 Speaker 2: more because two thirds of staff have registered to work 91 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 2: from home up to three days a week. I was 92 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 2: at the British Chambers of Commerce conference yes date listening 93 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 2: to the UK Chancellor Jeremy Hunt and actually Caroline he 94 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: reckons the default is going to be that people come 95 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: to the office and then they have to have a 96 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 2: good reason to work from home so they don't miss 97 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 2: out on the old water cooler moments. 98 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 8: Yeah. 99 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,559 Speaker 1: Absolutely, I'm kind of struck that it is a slow 100 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: burned story, isn't it worked from home versus being in 101 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: the office. But it's certainly an ongoing one. Okay, let's 102 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: turn our attention then to leaders of the Group of Seven, 103 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 1: the US, Japan, Germany, France, the UK, of course, Italy 104 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: and Canada if you want the list. They meet in Hiroshima, 105 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 1: Japanese Prime minister from Yo Kishida's hometown, with shared challenges 106 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: from Russia, from China and inflation and the cost of 107 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: living too. So in terms of the discussion points, let's 108 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: go live to Japan and our reporter Kareemi Maury, Good morning, Kareemi, 109 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us. 110 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 5: Purity. 111 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: Good morning. Security and the threat of nuclear weapons is 112 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: perhaps the biggest overhang, the biggest worry surely for this 113 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: G seven gathering. 114 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 8: Oh absolutely yeah. The renewed threats to really use nuclear 115 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 8: bombs zooming over the summit. The Japanese Prime Minister for Miyokishida, 116 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 8: this is his hometown, Hidoshima. This is obviously the site 117 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 8: of the world's first atomic bomb, and so for him, 118 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 8: one of his main goals of his administration is to 119 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 8: really push world leaders to create a path towards abolishing 120 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 8: nuclear weapons. Now had a time when nuclear security in 121 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 8: this area is threatened by the likes of China, North 122 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 8: Korea and Russia. It's a pretty harsh reality that maybe 123 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 8: that ambition may not be such an easy path going forward. Again, 124 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 8: we have world leaders gathered here today, but they're going 125 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 8: to be thinking about how to deal with President Ladimir Plutin, 126 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 8: who of course threatened to only the first atomic attack 127 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 8: on European soil as part of his war on Ukraine. 128 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 8: So this is one of the biggest agenda items for 129 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,679 Speaker 8: the world leaders gathered here in Hiroshima. 130 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: And yet at the same time the summit is kind 131 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: of competing for attention when you've got domestic issues in 132 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: the various member countries. You've got the debt ceiling in 133 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: the US, you know, France and Italy having this spotch 134 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: she expected to deliver a keynote speech at a two 135 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 2: day China Central Asia summit at the same time. How 136 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 2: does the G seven maintain its position at this point? 137 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 8: Absolutely, I mean, so much is going on at the 138 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 8: moment that timing is really interesting again also for China, 139 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 8: with their own summit happening at the same time, at 140 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 8: a time when G seven members are going to be 141 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 8: discussing and figuring out how to deal with China's you know, 142 00:07:56,200 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 8: expansion in terms of the military, they are going to 143 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 8: be in China meeting with the other members who are 144 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 8: mostly non Western countries to kind of counter the G 145 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 8: seven in a way. And so the G seven has 146 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 8: happened at the same time China is holding its own 147 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 8: summit as part of the Belt and Road initiative connecting 148 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 8: China and Europe. They're trying to invest, you know, in 149 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 8: more pipelines other projects in Central Asia to secure that 150 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 8: stable supply of natural resources. So all of these countries 151 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 8: that are involved in the summit in China have been 152 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 8: keeping some distance actually from the West, from the US 153 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 8: and European kind of style of democracy. So of course 154 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 8: the timing very interesting that it is happening at the 155 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 8: same time as this G seven summit in Hyoshima. 156 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: Kareemy, thank you so much for being with us this morning. 157 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: Kareemimur is lifeless in Hushima in Japan.

And it is a hugely 159 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: important moment, isn't it for that G seven of course. 160 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: Coming up next on the program, Starmer says that he 161 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 1: would revisit the UK's Brexit deal.

The Labor leader says a 173 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 3: new deal could bring more opportunities, especially for businesses. 174 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,599 Speaker 5: And you mentioned that you were at the British. 175 00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 3: Chambers of Commerce yesterday listening to that, Lizzie. 176 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 5: And he did tell business leaders that Labor. 177 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: Would fix the weakness in the current trade agreement to 178 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 3: give UK firms greater access to the European market. However, 179 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 3: he did insist that this could be done without the 180 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 3: UK rejoining either the European Single Market or the Customs Union. Now, 181 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 3: Rishie soon acts deal with the EU over the future 182 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 3: of Northern Ireland. That not that long ago. We can 183 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 3: all remember the Windsor Framework was actually backed by Labor 184 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 3: and Keirths. Stamer says, in a way this will increase 185 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: the scope for cooperation between London and Brussels if Labor 186 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 3: gets some power, because there's a much warmer relationship now. 187 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 3: He was speaking after Global carmakers called on the UK 188 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 3: government to renegotiate the Brexit deal, saying there could be 189 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 3: job losses if the current rules in place don't change. 190 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 7: Yeah. 191 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: I think it's very interesting as we count down or 192 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: eighteen months the next general election. The fact that Labour 193 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 1: are revealing and unveiling at this point, you know, what 194 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: seemed to be quite major policies is sort of interesting 195 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: in terms of timing, and. 196 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: Yet they don't want to give too much away in 197 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: case the Tories steal their clothes. 198 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: No, absolutely, Leanne That leads us then into the next doory. 199 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: The Guardian, Ford Vauxhall owner and JLR call for the 200 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: UK to renegotiate that Brexit deal. So you know, this 201 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: following on the UK's car industry has to be said 202 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: was a major achievement by Margaret Thatcher kind of opening 203 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: up that business. So very interesting that that companies now 204 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: have been saying what they want. 205 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 5: To get and Caroline you couldn't be more right. 206 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 3: So yesterday, ahead of Starmer's speech, Stilantis, which owns Vauxhall 207 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 3: in Fiat, said producing vehicles in Britain was just becoming 208 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 3: so much harder. Ford and Jaguar Landrover have now joined 209 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 3: Stillantis really echoing those concerns, and they warning the transition 210 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: to electric vehicles will be knocked off course unless the 211 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 3: UK and EU delay stricter rules of origin. Now these 212 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 3: are due to kick in next year and what could 213 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 3: happen is they could add tariffs on car exports. There 214 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 3: is a big concern it will just become so expensive 215 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 3: for them to get their cars out of the country. 216 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 3: So post Brexit rules as they stand right now require 217 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 3: forty percent of an electric vehicle's parts to be sourced 218 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 3: here in the UK or in the EU if it's 219 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 3: to be sold on the other side of the channel 220 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 3: without a. 221 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 5: Ten percent tariff. 222 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 3: Now that is due to go up to forty five 223 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,239 Speaker 3: percent next year, such a massive jump. This is massively 224 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 3: concerning these car companies. Now most electric vehicle batteries, we 225 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 3: have to admit are still imported from Asia, with batteries 226 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 3: making up a large part of cost of building an 227 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 3: electric car. 228 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 5: And this is something else that I just wanted to. 229 00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 3: Draw your attention to British Vault, Caroline about them before 230 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 3: they collapsed. 231 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 5: They were seen as a big. 232 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 3: Battery maker here in the UK, something we desperately need 233 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 3: if we're moving into the ev market. And the co 234 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 3: founder of British Vault has actually given an exclusive interview 235 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 3: to Sky News saying Britain's missed its opportunity to build 236 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 3: a battery industry after the failure of British Vault, and 237 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 3: this is why we're so reliant on Asia. 238 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 2: And finally on the ft has the headline Purple Bricks 239 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,600 Speaker 2: sells itself for a pound as a plan to upend 240 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: estate agents falls flat. 241 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 5: Yes, absolutely, Lizzie. 242 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 3: I always feel like the adverts for Purple Bricks are 243 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 3: stuck in my head constantly. 244 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 5: They really catchy. 245 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,599 Speaker 3: But listen the trouble online a state agent Purple Bricks 246 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 3: has agreed a deal to sell its business and assets. 247 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 3: Now that's to the rival strike and it's for a 248 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 3: whole token sum of a pound. Now the UK firm, 249 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 3: which was once valued at more than one billion dollars, 250 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: actually put itself up for sale in February. I've been 251 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 3: speaking to some of the people's on some of the 252 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 3: people we have here on our equities team, and they 253 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 3: said it was a UK distributor Darling back in the day, 254 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: and that's when you know, we saw it launch on 255 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 3: London's junior alternative investment market back in twenty fifteen. But 256 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 3: it said the deal will lead to job losses. So 257 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 3: this deal it's made. It had a whole restructuring plan 258 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 3: to make things better and it just didn't happen. It 259 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 3: just didn't work. Now the business assets and most of 260 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 3: its liabilities will now change hands, while the Purple Bricks 261 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 3: will retain up to five point five million pounds and 262 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 3: cashes as really to return to their shareholders. 263 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 5: We'll definitely see that coming in. 264 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 3: But I think is strike the rival just really buying 265 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 3: up Purple Bricks for its clients and listings. Now this 266 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 3: is where the concern comes in when it comes to 267 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 3: massive job losses across that business. 268 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, they've got more than seven hundred and fifty according 269 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: to the reports. I'm just staggered that Purple Bricks had 270 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 1: such a high valuation. It hadn't realized that, you know, 271 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: this kind of internet Darling was considered to be worth 272 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 1: so much I even have read that valuations were as 273 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: high as one point four billion, which is a huge, 274 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: huge sum and now lots of restructuring and a sell 275 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: off for Purple Bricks.
