  Speaker 1: We're after europe vincent Mecha Vinigard money to you.
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: Good morning.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: So the European reaction to Donald Trump's turffs.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like all governments around the world, the UK and
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: Europe is trying to figure out what to do now
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: in response, and we're taking slightly different paths. The UK
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: feels it's close to actually securing a trade deal with
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: the United States, and so we are still staying on
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: this sort of uncritical, calm steady path in the hope
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: that we can get that done quickly. Our rate was
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: only put at ten percent. We're much more of a
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: services based economy, we've got less of a trade deficit.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: So Kirstarmer hoping that he can do something soon. Are
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: two primary experts for the US. Auto's those obviously are
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: at twenty five percent. Pharmaceuticals those have been given a
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: temporary reprieve. So there is hope here in London something
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: can be done, but of course there'll be knock on
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: effects from everywhere else around the world. Europe, though much
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: bigger manufacturer compared to the United Kingdom, they've been pretty
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: robust saying they're going to move quickly to retaliatory measures
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: and they're not happy with this, saying it's a major
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: blow to the world economy.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Yes, and people concern that the war may be overly
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: recissionary for the whole globe.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that, you know, keep hearing the adage
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: that no one actually wins in the trade war, and
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: ultimately the people that pay are consumers. So I think
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: there is a lot of bewilderment about what's going on.
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: It is a total rewiring of the global economy. And
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: some people can see, you know, Donald Trump is right
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: about wanting to re sure a lot of jobs and
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: get people into quality jobs, but they also feel like
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: this is going to be a massive shock to the
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: system after a decade. Let's be honest. Where for here
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: in the UK, we had the shock of Brexit, then
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: we had the pandemic, and then we've had the war
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: in Ukraine. People are quite fed up with these kind
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: of shocks, all right.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: Now we move to the battle between Printerry and his
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: charity sent to Ballet, and now we have an investigation.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Charity Commission here in the UK is announced
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: the first stage and a potential investigation into the conduct
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: of the charity. This is after this war of words
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: has broken out over Center Ballei, which Prince Harry set
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: up around twenty years ago with Prince Seiso of Lusutu,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: which was looking at health, particularly HIV and AIDS in
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: young people in southern parts of Africa. And so this
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: resignation last week, fall out between the sort of trustees
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Prince Harry and Prince Seiso and the chair of the
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: charity has been a bit of a war of words
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: in the media in the last week. But now we're
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: going to get an efficial investigation as to what's been
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: going on in this charity. Prince Harry, for his part,
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: says he welcomes this.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Have the people of the UK taken sides.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a kind of there's a lot going on
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: this week, but it is another sort of you know,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Harry Meghan drama, which we're sort of well used to.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: I think many people though do recognize that Throughout it all,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: Prince Harry has been very dedicated to his charity work,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: particularly this charity which you know he founded himself. It
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: was named, you know, to do with his mother and
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: forgetting memories of a parent, and so he's been dedicated
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: to it. He spent a lot of time in this
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: part of the world across the African continent doing charity work,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: so people are just sort of not quite sure what's
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: going on.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Okay, Vincent, I thank you so much. For more from
