New study has shown that britains cost of living crisis is said to cause premature deaths among thousands of people this year. Millions of britains have been hit heard by levels of inflation not seen in decades. That has been blamed a number of reasons, including the war in ukraine, covid, brexit, and the governments economic policies. A new study has shown that britains cost of living crisis, that mainly results from the governments Economic Policy is set to cause premature deaths among thousands of people this year. The results of the research were published by the Bmj Public Health journal. The study showed that the cost of living crisis and sustained period of high prices will reduce life expectancy. Among the people across the country by 6. 5 this year. The predicted increase in premature deaths from baseline of 463 per 100,000 people to 493 per 100,000 equates to thousands of extra deaths a year in the uk. The study says that the most deprived households will experience four times the number of extra deaths than the wealthiest households with the poorest having to spend a large proportion of their income on energy, the cost of which has soored. Evidence shows low income is associated with poor health. And that falls in income adversely affect health. According to last months figures, the uks inflation stood at 6. 7 . For me, this whole conversation is about whether heat the house or whether i breed, and it, its so hard to describe what thats like in real terms, because its an immediate threat to your life, although it was down from a high of 11. 1 , britains inflation still remains the highest among the Member States of the group. Of seven. Meanwhile, there are gloomy predictions about uks economic prospects a report by the washington based Peterson Institute for International Economics says the uk economy will shrink this year and in 2024. Says a drop in gdp this year of 0. 3 would be followed by fall of 0. 2 next year. Uh now if we look at the data that weve seen recently obviously there can be some revisions in the gdp data we saw quite a contraction in july um now we are expecting perhaps there are some qurks in the data that we havent seen as much industrial action recently um and there could be some technical issues and a rebound, but i think the outlook for the rest of this year is quite weak, we see that as youve mentioned in the pmi surveys, both manufacturing and services moving into contraction. The british economy is expected to shrink this year and in the year 2024, thats according to a study by washington based Peterson Institute for International Economics. This says resistance, inflation and a shortage of workers, among other things, will result in a. 3 drop in the uks Gross Domestic Product this year. Their fears the uk is suffering from structural economic conditions, factors related to the underlying weakness of the uk economy and the fall out from brexit would leave the uk behind while most other developed economies expand. Uk was also suffering from an unequal recovery that benefited better off households, while the bottom half of the income scale continued to be affected by falling real incomes. Persistent inflation, falling real incomes of lowincome households and a shortage of workers will result. The drop in the countrys Gross Domestic Product. Cuts to governments spending next year will also drag on economic growth. Central bank held rates at 5. 25 at this meeting, and betting on Financial Markets showed investors expect there will be no change at the next meeting in november. The next move could be upwards should inflation prove to be more stubborn than the Central Banks forecast predict, despite a weakening of economic growth. I think really what were seeing is they are worried about the recession, they are worried about weaker growth and they think that perhaps going into. Rest this year, inflation is likely to continue to decelerate, so what were seeing is the lagged impact of fairly aggressive monetary tightening really starting to bite, and theyre probably thinking, right, here is a time to pause, but we dont want to get too complacent, there are still a lot of inflationary pressures ahead, the economic crisis and persistent inflation has caused trouble for the ruling tories in the uk, Prime Minister rishinaks popularity has fallen to its lowest levels ever, some 68 of britains currently have an unfavorable view the problem. Minister, the highest figure since becoming Prime Minister, while only 23 have favorable view. Truth is the flaw fell in for millions of families because of their economic mayhem, the classroom ceilings collapsed because he cut vital school budgets, and now the walls of our National Security have been breached because theyve ignored repeated warnings, no one voted for these shambles, no one voted for him, so how much more damage to the British Public have to put up with before he finally finds the stomach to give them a say.

Press tv, islamabad, the group of countries. To creat its own financial messaging system that will replace swift. The plan is part of measures by the group to reduce dependency on the west financial systems. We discussed that issue with our guests in the News Review Program. Lets take a listen. And i welcome everyone to press tvs News Review Program where we get in depth in one of the days talk. Stories, another bricks, group of countries is planning financial messaging system to enable members to conduct trade in local currencies and ease financial transactions. The russian finance minister anton sulionov made the announcement, hes that creation of an alternative to swift will be on the blocks agenda in the 2024 meeting. Bricks leaders held their latest summit in johannesburg in august and they call for reducing dependency on the us dollar in favor of local currencies. Brazil also called for a bricks common currency to be used for trade and investment between members, the group which consists of brazil, russia, india, china and south africa, represents 40 of the worlds population across three continents, and accounts for a quarter of the global gdp. Iran and five other countries will join the block as new members starting january next year. Joining us for the program now is mr. John. John ross, senior fellow at chong gang institute, rayme university of china, joining us from london and alfred zayat, lawyer writer and historian joining us from geneva, gentlemen, i like to welcome you both to the game here, uh, to the program here, and im going to start it off with you, uh, mr. John ross, if you could uh joining us there, um, mr. John ross, okay, recently we saw bricks expand, just a month and a half ago to to absorb saudi arabia, iran. I believe it was ethiopia, the united arab arab emirates, argentina and egypt, and then there are dozens of countries that are voicing strong interests to be absorbed, this is the first absorption in the last 13 years, my question to you, why the frenzy . Well, i dont think its a frendsy, its a logical process of whats been taking place in the world, which is at the present time, the us is a big absorber of capital international, it cant even finance it. Investment, it it it is dependent increasingly for development of its own economy of for its investment upon capital take from other countries which they could have used for themselves, so what the United States is basically saying to other countries is what we want you to do is dont use the capital for the your own capital for the development of your own country, instead invested in the United States for the development of our economy, well thats not really very much in the interest of these other countries, so therefore brips on the contrary is development winwin relationships between countries, if you take the biggest economy within it china, its still an exporter of capital, so it can aid other countries, and so these other countries are coming together in bricks, not not necessarily because they they have the same systems, they dont, theyve big differences between them, but because they want to to concentrate on their own national development, rather than subordinating themselves to the United States, so its not a frenzy, this is just number of countries act in their own selfinterest. Thank you sir, mr. Alfred des, welcome to the program sir, now mr. Zaias, is this is breaks a threat to us hijamani, and why are we so seeing so many countries that are very cordial ties, if we dont want to call them allies, at the least they have cordial ties like egypt, the united arab emirates, saudi arabia with washington, and yet here they are, part of bricks. Brit is wonderful development, so is the belt and road initiative, the world. Is evolving from the unipolar to the multipolar world and financially, of course the dollar as the World Reserve currency, 90 of most deals are done in dollars, that will gradually decline, its not going to be overnight, but the proposal to have a bricks currency is a viable proposal and of course its in the interest of brazil and india and china uh to have a common currency so as not to be subjected to dollar subjugation, you see the problem is that the United States and im an american citizen, the United States has weaponized the dollar, has weaponized uh the swift. Uh system and appreciate your input. Mr. John rosster joining us out of london and mr. Alfred dezias joining us from geneva and viewers that brings us to the conclusion of this segment of your press tvs news.
