Health secretary will outline the restrictions different english regions will face, once the full lockdown is lifted next wednesday. They are expected to be tougher than before and are unlikely to provide any relief for the struggling hospitality industry. The trade body hospitality uk is warning a millionjobs are at risk if pubs, restaurants and hotels face severe restrictions in the run up to christmas their busiest time of the year. And the british beer and Pub Association has written to the Prime Minister this morning, demanding to see any evidence that pubs are a source of virus outbreaks. They say its clear pubs are being scapegoated. Joining me now is steve alton, chief executive of the British Institute of innkeeping, which speaks for thousands of pub owners across the uk. Thank you for getting up so early for us, steve. It looks like if reports are correct, that most of england will be in tier two. Talk through what this means for pubs. Simply, it means that we are in real danger of losing thousands of pubs across the uk. Members operate pubs across the uk and they do it incredibly safely and right now there is a huge sense of frustration and increasingly anger and real fear that these businesses are now just fear that these businesses are nowjust going to collapse as they have been singled out for these restrictive measures unlike any other area of the economy and the frustration is borne out from the investment they have given to their premises, their teams, to make their environments covidsafe insecure and provided fabulous places to socialise safely for months with no discernible impact of public health, and just where we enter a period when actually where we want to come together, we are here to help and provide to manage these spaces and we have been singled out and prevented to do so, which is critical to their business model. When you say singled out, obviously the tiered system is just applied toa tiered system is just applied to a geographical area and whatever is in there, whether a hotel or restaurant or pub, you have to stick to the rules, so it is not as though pubs specifically are singled out, are they . 20 senator esper the economy fully open with high streets bustling and gyms and cinemas when you see the rest of the economy. So not mixing household, and buried my knees a limited numbers, table service, the and bear in mind. This is all coming at a huge cost and remember for most of our members, the have been closed for four months or longer, because their environment has been actually constrained in bringing people together but they have struggled to meet that but for the vast majority, i have done an incrediblejob the vast majority, i have done an incredible job during the vast majority, i have done an incrediblejob during the period and making absolutely no money, losing money, and december represents 20 of annual profit and without it, its about getting through to spring. The Prime Minister talks about getting us all through spring but we want to be there when restrictions come off again because economically the sector contributes hugely. Remember, a part is a small business, a local employer, it buys from local suppliers, small breweries et cetera and provide livelihood in homes. This is a key part of the economy, a key part of society, and the local community and we paid £40,000 of tax a year and with saving. If restrictions are in place up to the point where they are eased over the five days over christmas and a put in place after christmas, january and beyond, what would you need in terms of help from the government in order for many pubs not to face closure . Asimple many pubs not to face closure . A simple investment package. We have been given some grants. They are woefully short of the amount given when we were first lockdown, about a quarter of the level and doesnt even cover costs. When looking for compensation for the lost trading. Which is so important for the survival of pubs and they need the long term surety they need the long term surety the vat and Business Rates need to postpone formally until 2022. These are now looking serious look that their businesses and making decisions in hours and days about whether they are going to continue and ta ke they are going to continue and take on more debt or get some hope of getting through this plan sensibly. That is what they are asking for. This is an investment package. Again, hospitality contributes £40 billion of direct taxation to the treasury and treasury needs us the treasury and treasury needs us and wants of their as part of the economic recovery. This isa of the economic recovery. This is a short Term Investment package to get us through and it will be returned. Thank you for joining it will be returned. Thank you forjoining us. That was the chief executive of the British Institute of in keeping. Lets stay with the uk economy because britains finance minister, chancellor of the exchequer rishi sunak, has been setting out the cost of covid i9 and there are some huge numbers involved. The uk is forecast to borrow £394 billion this year, thats over half a trillion dollars, to meet the cost of covid. Thats equivalent to i9 of the uks gdp the highest ever level of borrowing in peace time. Heres rishi sunak in parliament earlier. Our Health Emergency is not yet over, and our economic emergency has onlyjust begun. Mrsunak also laid out the economic consequences of covid projecting that the uk economy will shrink by 11. 3 this year, the largest contraction in 300 years. The Unemployment Rate is expected to peak at 7. 5 next year that equates to 2. 6 Million People out of work. That means the government expects around i million more people will lose theirjobs by the middle of next year. And the chancellor warned that the economic effects will be long lasting. Economic output is not expected to return to precrisis levels until the Fourth Quarter of 2022. And the economic damage is likely to be lasting. Long term scarring means in 2025 the economy will be around 3 smaller than expected in the march budget. Kathleen brooks is founder and director of minerva analysis. Breathtaking statistics and weve had a discussion about one aspect of the uk economy, pubs and how their outlook is so grim. Given the restrictions we are going into. Give us your thoughts on what rishi sunak had to say . You are right, these figures are very scary and frightening numbers, the gdp is very scary. But there is a potential, a few things not mentioned yesterday included the vaccine. We didnt talk much about that and what the future could be. These were the office of the budget responsibilities and their views on where the economy would go. We think they are being too pessimistic and next year we could see a larger bounce back in the economy, particularly the vaccine situation goes well and the roll out goes well and we can see activity return to normal. It was interesting what your previous guest mentioned about taxes. That was another glaring omission yesterday and we do not hear anything about tax rises or brexit. So a lot of headwinds for the uk economy and when you borrow at this level, you become incredibly sensitive to Interest Rates. At the moment you can borrow at record levels but they uncertainty is where will the Interest Rates go in the future and that is where the uk will be at risk. If youre borrowing 20 of gdp in one year alone, you are going to be incredibly sensitive to Interest Rates. This was a spending review, not a budget so its about what he is spending which is why the taxation elements were not talked about this week. That will come in the budget. Maybe it is about managing expectations when you talk about the pessimistic outlook. But also just hearing from the previous guest and i had this conversation so many times in different sectors of the uk economy, where they are saying we will face bankruptcy and closure on a huge scale unless the government helps us and bails out further. Im wondering if the chancellor will actually have to spend more than he is saying . will actually have to spend more than he is saying . I think thats a very good point. We did not say that this is the end of borrowing. This is £280 billion so far to protect the economy. If the vaccine for whatever happens the reason doesnt go as planned, does not give us the benefits as planned, then he will have to ta ke planned, then he will have to take another hard look. 0ne thing is sure, pretty certain at this stage, you cannot keep borrowing the best part of 20 gdp every year. We will not see borrowing like this again. But if we have another pandemic in 4 if we have another pandemic in 4 five years time, for the government actually be able to afford to support the economy in the same way here . As you mentioned, he has not been able to save everyjob or sector. U nfortu nately, to save everyjob or sector. Unfortunately, somethings are being sacrificed as a government tries to manage our way out of this crisis we have. The good thing at this stage is that the government can borrow at record low levels because the borrowing is supported by the borrowing is supported by the bank of england monetary policy, or 0a, and that could go towards borrowing next year and he gave room to do that because he did say borrowing related to covid would only be 50 billion next year, a massive drop from the £280 billion this year. Thank you for talking to us, kathleen brooks. Today is thanksgiving in the us, a time when millions of americans travel to spend time with their families. This year of course its a Holiday Season like no other. The center for Disease Control has advised people not to travel as infection levels continue to spike. But that hasnt stopped Airline Passenger numbers from hitting the highest level since march, as Michelle Fleury reports. Despite warnings to stay at home, about a million americans a day are expected to fly this thanksgiving weekend. The figure is down by about half from this time last year but it is still the biggest crowds we have seen since march when the pandemic began. And triple eight expects up to 50 million americans to travel for the holidays. My son meaty with grandkids and so thanksgiving, here i am moved here.

Public Health Officials are concerned that thanksgiving will become a super spreader event and the coronavirus cases and the death toll will begin to spike in the weeks right before christmas. Lets go to asia now but stay with that theme because shanghai has become the worlds most connected city for air travel, according to Airline Industry body iata. It has dethroned london which has seen the number of Airline Connections slump because of the pandemic. Sharanjit leyl in singapore has more on this. Shanghai is the most connected place in the world . Quite incredible . Not london, shanghai, number one for International Travel and not the only chinese city, sally, because the worlds four most connected cities are all in china. London losing its top spot has been blamed on the cam status pandemic, meaning it has experienced a 67 fall in a travel connectivity, according to iata, which says it has undergone a of bringing people together in connecting cities are not just together in connecting cities are notjust london that has lost its spot because new york, york, tokyo and others previously either type has been hired by the huge fall in flights in and out of the cities. Meanwhile, china has gradually opened up travel corridors, busy discussing quarantine free travel agreements, with countries including japan agreements, with countries includingjapan and agreements, with countries including japan and singapore. Shanghai now leaves with beijing, bongo and chengdu following it as the most connected cities. Air travel in china recovered especially during the golden week holiday in march when 425 Million People travelled around the country, according to chinese tourism data. The rest of asia has not fared as well, tiling capital bangkok and hong kong, both seeing a steep 81 drop in connectivity. The iata index measures how well connected a countrys city is to other cities around the world and it is really a measure that is seen is really a measure that is seen to be critical for trade, Tourism Investment as well as their economies. The organisation went on to estimate that some 46 million jobs supported by air transport are in danger because of the pandemic. Thank you.

This is bbc world news, the latest headlines President Trump pardons Michael Flynn, his former National Security adviser who pleaded guilty to lying to the fbi about his contacts with russia. People in england will find out today which level of restrictions they will be facing when the lockdown ends on the second of december. Technology companies are dodging their environmental responsibilities, according to a committee of uk members of parliament, by failing to help recycle and repair old products. 155,000 tonnes of discarded gadgets end up in uk household bins each year. The Environmental AuditCommittee Says tech giants should be banned from intentionally shortening the lifespan of devices, and be forced to label them with an expected lifetime and repairability score. Apple says its surprised and disappointed by the report, and amazon says its committed to mimimizing waste. Dr Deirdre Mckay researches Environmental Issues at Keele University in central england. Welcome to the programme. Companies like apple have been accused and found guilty of trying to drive the replacement cycle by increasing e waste, what do you know about this . Well, what i know is that this isa well, what i know is that this is a great news story because the Environmental Committee has been listening to uk consumers and householders and they are very tired of not knowing what to do with obsolete product. This is designed in obsolescence and it has not done at the request of the consumer, it has been done for convenience and for profit making by the companies. So, as they have in the us and the eu, they have in the us and the eu, the right to repair is now going to be enforced through regulation, and this is good news for consumers. Companies will have to work around this. So, what changes will we see in place, then . What we will see is we will get like Goods Collection when we have electronics delivered to our homes by online retailers, just like we would in a shop, we will hopefully see more refurbished products available and we should, eventually, see and we should, eventually, see a kitemark for recycled in the uk rather than sending things offshore for so called recycling there. We have mentioned some of the responses, mis on saying they are committed to minimising waste, apple saying it is surprised and disappointed. How will this drive change internationally . We are catching up to europe in those jurisdictions in the us that already have right to repair laws stopping the eco design directive in the eu is something our government has committed to keeping pace with, so committed to keeping pace with, so it is a bit disingenuous of apple to say they are surprised, they have had complaints for years about how expensive it is to get the gadgets repaired and how they have very, very short life in use. So i think amazon probably has a better approach to this, saying that yes, they are going to put a Waste Collection schemes and place. That, however, doesnt really solve theissues however, doesnt really solve the issues with recycling. Thank you doctor Deirdre Mckay, really interesting. Finally, lets stay with that environmental theme, because teenage activists in australia have launched a Class Action Lawsuit on behalf of young people around the world to stop a large coal mining project, 430kms north west of sydney. They argue the federal government has a duty to protect them from climate change. Neither the government nor the Resources Company have commented. A trial in australias federal court is expected to start in march next year. From sydney, phil mercer reports. Looking into a future dominated by fossilfuel, this 13 year old doesnt like what she sees. Supported by her father, the Sydney High School student says she is deeply anxious about the threat of climate change. Is it worth bringing kids into this world if their future is just going to be struggling to breathe from the smoke and being afraid that their house is going to be burnt down or swept away by land erosion or rising sea levels . Land erosion or rising sea levels . The decision to take the Australian Government to court over coal was fuelled by the black summer bushfires. The teenagers insist that that sort of devastation will become more frequent because of climate change. Their class action asserts that the environment minister has a duty to protect younger people into the future, and the coal needs to stay in the ground. Young australians have been vocal about global warming. Rallies last year attracted vast impatient crowds demanding action. From this movement, eight teenagers were recruited by lawyers to lead the class action. Younger people today are really frustrated. There is a huge disconnect between what they wa nt disconnect between what they want and what our government is doing. What we have is a massive sector of society who are going to be hit hardest by climate impacts. Coal generates much of australias electricity and is one of its biggest export. Its longer term future though, is uncertain because of a global shift to renewable energy. Supporters of the fossil fuel industry say children should be taught how valuable it is. Its really unfairon valuable it is. Its really unfair on these kids going through school that they are handed a 1 dimensional view on climate change, sure there is impact, theres no question, but those kids also need to be taught there is no way that we can exist or survive as an economy without using alcohol resources. Economy without using alcohol resources. Legal experts believe that given the complexity of the case, stopping a major mining project wont be easy. We have to change things, otherwise our future is going to be absolutely catastrophic. Its the hope that keeps us going. Lets remind you of our top story, President Trump has granted a pardon to Michael Flynn his former National Security advisor who pleaded guilty to lying to the fbi about the contacts with russia stopping democrats in the United States have reacted with anger to President Trumps decision to pardon his National Security adviser, former adviser. Hello. Weve plenty of fine weather in the forecast for the uk for the next few days, thanks to a building ridge of High Pressure. But that ridge of High Pressure will bring with it an increased chance of many of us seeing frosty nights. Could be some chilly days, as well, as under the ridge of High Pressure, theres an increasing chance of us seeing fog developing by night and lingering into the coming days. Today perhaps not so bad, though. We will have a weather front still pushing a bit more cloud into southernmost counties of the uk first thing, a little bit of rain for kent. 0n the whole, though, the majority seeing sunshine from the get go. But even with the sunshine, after a chilly start, our temperatures wont recover to the heights weve seen previously this week. Were looking typically at highs of 7 9, the odd spot getting up to 10 or 11. You may well notice this weather front trying to come into the north west. These two fronts tend to try and squeeze the high through thursday and friday, but through the centre of the high, we have the greatest risk of seeing some fog as we move into the small hours of friday. And here, too, ithink, our chilliest spots, dipping down below freezing. A little bit more cloud to the far south east and the far north west will perhaps mean our temperatures may stay above. And through friday daytime, those fronts, as you can see, just cap either end of the uk. Through the core of the uk, you may all think were set up for a lot of sunshine. Some areas will get some decent sunshine, but some of that fog is going to really struggle to clear. Theres not much breeze set to work on it, and the sunshine isnt particularly strong at this time of year. And if the fog does stick, temperatures, 2 3 degrees are possible. But as you can see, even in the best of early brightness on friday, were looking at 6 or 7. As for the weekend, i suspect fairly similar temperatures and a fairly similar looking picture overall. Some chilly nights to come. Youll notice that our high looks a little different for saturday and sunday, it extends across us from the continent. Just a chance as well on sunday that well see a weather front trying to push into the north west. But the effect overall is still the same a lot of fine weather, light winds, but that chance of some fog forming by night that lingers through the day or lifts up into low cloud, hence sunshine for many parts of the uk may well be at a premium as we head on into the weekend. Good morning, welcome to breakfast with Charlie Stayt and naga munchetty. 0ur headlines today People Living in england will learn today what level of restriction theyll face when lockdown ends. Most areas are expected to be in the toughest two tiers, when the Health Secretary announces the details later.
