Blockbusters put on hold due to coronavirus restrictions. China is moving to pass a National Security law for hong kong but it could be the biggest blow to its autonomy since it was handed over by the british in 1907 premier league laid out the program for the next year and the opening address to the annual National Peoples congress it includes the law which is expected to ban sedition secession and subversion of the Central Government in beijing in the semi autonomous territory news of the plan theres already been met with protests in hong kong leading prodemocracy figures called the end of the one country 2 systems. Brown is live for us in hong kong so what kind of reaction are we getting from the streets now. Well there have been a few small protests sami during the past few hours and a clash inside hong kongs Legislative Assembly between progovernment lawmakers and their opponents but we are expecting to be honest in the coming weeks the protests to return one small at the moment we still have social distancing regulations and rules here in hong kong which means that its impossible for people of more than in groups of more than 8 to gather on the streets now those social distancing rules have been extended until june 4th saw i think once that is over and if those social distancing rules arent extended then i think you know expect the protesters to return to the streets but its not in the same numbers as last year but certainly i think they will take to the streets there is a real anger here at the moment and a sense also months some of the protest groups that they have nothing to lose by returning to the streets now in the last few minutes the Hong Kong Government has issued a statement saying that it will fully implement the decision of chinas National Peoples congress to introduce a new security law and also stressing that the people of hong kong will continue to enjoy their freedoms well those words have rung very hollow to the prodemocracy camp here in hong kong one of their spokesman took part in a in a Media Conference on friday morning and he said it was clear that president xi jinping no longer cared about what the rest of the world thinks and that hong kong and china were now on the road to confrontation once more lets be clear that you know while you know it is a it has been reported that its Chinas Parliament that is proposing this legislation this is come from president xi jinping i think last year when he saw the Central Liaison Office here in hong kong having its its its sort of symbol on the door destroyer. When he saw the chinese flag being desecrated on in t. V. News report that for him i think was the final straw and this new law is is designed not so much to restrict protests but also to deal with these acts of secession and separatism when people take part in marches here in hong kong sami often often they do so holding posters calling for an independent hong kong an independent tibet if that happens in the future people doing that could find themselves facing a long jail sentence or a dream brown there from hong kong thanks for that now also coming from the National Peoples congress for the 1st time in decades china wont set a growth target the premier league told 3000. 00 delegates promoting development would be set aside as beijing works to repair an economy badly hit by the coronavirus pandemic katrina you is in beijing with the details of that economic plan. The theme was that the chrono virus has had a huge impact on china theyve managed to get that under control theyre still fighting the war no measures no resources have been spared but because of this the economy has suffered heavy losses but in premier league the chinese words that was a price worth paying and because of this and because of the uncertainties due to the pandemic and trade no g. D. P. Target has been set in china for the 1st time since 1988 he went on then to elaborate on a few measures that will be implemented to bolster the slowing economy the 1st being to stabilize employment that is key and he repeated that throughout the speech 9000000. 00 urban jobs will be introduced and they will also invest in Group Projects and boost agricultural related jobs as well 140000000000. 00 worth of government bonds will be issued to tackle card 19 and a Defense Budget was also raised 6. 6 percent it will be by 6. 6 percent this year thats actually the lowest growth rate weve had in recent years and the most telling instruction of all all communist Party Government officials all levels of government here in china will be told to tighten their belts there was some good news though the 2020 goal of eradicating extreme poverty will still stand and the government will continue to try to implement the phase one trade deal with washington but of course many economic difficulties in this speech setting a very different torrent a lot less flowery language a lot less triumphant language and it seems that leak achang here is really ushering in a new era of of stare she here in china.

Made landfall on wednesday operating fountains of trees destroying power lines. More than 2 weeks after britains Prime Minister baraks johnson announced an easing of lockdown restrictions nicholas sturgeon has unveiled her plan for scotlands 1st minister is implementing different measures at a slower pace raising questions about how united the u. K. Really is how the more heavy reports from by the. After 2 months of living under locked in the scottish 1st minister announced the end is in sight i can confirm that the government intends to move from locked on to phase one and thereby lift some restrictions from the 20 of me the plan comes more than 2 weeks after the Prime Minister in one soliciting of the lock turned in the u. K. But the devolved administrations refused to follow suit it may seem fragments or even confuse but this is the reality of devolution in the u. K. The u. K. Government just does not control Health Policy already cation policy in wales Northern Ireland or here in scotland what a pandemic has done is laid bare the way different administrations react in very different ways the more cautious scottish approach is being broadly welcomed by residents and contrasts sharply with the speeds people in england were urged back to work thank you duckie about the long term like Health Statistics much better than borat has. Compared. Their issue comes across the 1st ministers plan for lifting scotlands locked down is similar to much of what was announced by Boris Johnson the wool schoolchildren will stay on for longer in scotland the main difference appears to be the way she has communicated with the public she has been admirably clear and forthright and candid through a lot this emergency and you know even some of the people who vote conservative or labor in scotland are prepared to concede that. But in terms of actual policy you know theres been very little difference between scotland and politics as usual has been suspended temporarily at the seat of power but this unity is unlikely to hold and while the coronaviruses encourage the 4 nations of the u. K. To Work Together the next phase could hold more friction. I think as we move to the next phase as we. Exit the locked and as we move to responding to the places and rebuilding the economy i think thats when we will start to see more tensions more difficulties of managing and perhaps more ideological distinctions in the approaches that it is despite losing new wind 20 food scene scotland is currently split 5050. 00 on independence and remains deeply divided scotland is set to head to the pools next year intellectually could prove consequential for the future of the u.

So what were doing is were looking at variety of new different techniques that employ both drawbacks post production techniques and shooting techniques that elevate the standards of hygenic practice is unset so will be the test case if you will for those types of movies but we do have practices in place now that encourage social distancing among crew persons among the actors and were hoping that there will be a variety of Digital Solutions that we can employ to help finish films so no no kissing and hugging scenes fact is i mean more or right now that i dont know yet. What we can make monsters or the law be graphic with it on the lawn that i want and the real hog. What kind of impact has it had on the industry i mean read about obviously some productions being complete i was going to say frozen no pun intended and sold but yes also other aspects of the industry when it comes to digital consumption picking up.

Impact wont be known for at least another year but yes across the world weve had a number of productions that have shut down and we have been fortunate that weve been able to finish a few movies while they coronavirus and shut. Production down but what were hoping is with the resumption of filmmaking we will be able to start making movies again the true impact will not be known for at least another year on i will leave it that its been many good getting your thoughts on this thanks so much for joining us david conley thank you very much appreciate them.
