A welcome. Tommy after todays touted as. High that it is touted as decisive we finally have some results though ambiguous on the face with the bill advancing but the p. M. s timetable being rejected again so where does the process go from here just over an hour ago we just saw a report that mr johnson called the results joyful which seems quite remarkable so when the Prime Minister back up his threat to push for election are trying to accommodate the common house of commons on a timetable. As a good question that krissy the problem is we probably have taken one step forward and 2 steps back to the because there was a vote in principle and support of the board of joints and it was that all deal which morse commentators even though was a supporter no believe was even worse than trees amazed so thats the irony of ironies however the m. P. s in the house of commons then did as they slumped borders johnson firmly across the face because he said he was demanding to have this whole process done in 2 days and he wanted to buy the 31st of october no no one knows why the stock to foster one. Crucial to board assurance and some people are speculating maybe hes got a bet on it with some bookies or something but the crew says there is no we could go through such a complicated 100 page bill these so the m. P. s voted in principle in support of the bill but they said but not in 2 days they want x. To the team to analyze scrutinize and perhaps a made the bill so this saga is far from over its going to drag on even for the. As far as whats motivating the leaders here to get this done we also heard rumors that leo to car the irish taste such as eager to get this done before his tickets for a share on november 1st well see if that happens but on the e. U. Side of this process we also saw some Movement Today from donald tusk and Michel Barnier way what has been the word from the continental e. U. Leaders about todays events most pointedly on whether or not they will accommodate delay or extension from the u. K. Side. The Union Leaders are absolutely desperate not to appear to be forcing a new deal but except no if they unite people leaders will to tone roland in the next few days and see no no no more extensions then they would effectively a new deal breaks and all of the uncertainty that brings across the whole of the utopian union they wouldnt do that up until today they were saying well were not very pleased no let it stay engine do you really need more tame except to etc after todays meeting and vote in the parliament its absolutely clear the european Union Leaders will get an extension probably until the end of january and that will undermine the authority of broad assurance and bought his joints and said that if he didnt get brakes it done by 31st of what then he would die and id know there are plenty of people all over scotland offering to dig those debts shes fought mr johnson to enter into but while it keeps these what did not or not remains to be seen he said that if you lost this tainted building vote then he would force a general election quite frankly i think thats whats absolutely necessary to break the deadlock the people of button and that means well scotland and Northern Ireland accompli. Scotland voted to remain Northern Ireland voted remain the leave we always voted leave however they didnt want to leave with a deal the should have the option to them a general election and as the voice of the people of england what if to leave the european let them do that thats democracy but the people of scotland are clearly growing and a different path and interestingly interestingly daniel the people of Northern Ireland appear to be going in a different path as well all of the poor is no assuring increased support for a referendum on a United Ireland wouldnt it be absolutely ironic if borders joints and rushing to get a break deal actually led to the breakup of the British State with scotland going for independence and Northern Ireland for reunification with the island of ireland so now weve touched on this before but the risk that this entire process can be to a disunion in the u. K. Seems to be under played in the coverage the Vice President michel neal put a point on today suggesting that a poll on unifying the island of ireland under one flag could happen within 5 years say clearly baghdad has become a catalyst by the us so what do you make a mess oneill suggestion. I think mr kneale of feeling is trying to articulate the mood music is playing across the north of ireland just no there is obviously quite. Placable unionist support in Northern Ireland to remain part of britain however that is beginning to free and isnt as strong as it once was because people are worried about leaving the youd opinion that it me to leave. Leave them economically washed off in the north of ireland and they dont want the if they keep us as built that it would be better for Northern Ireland to join ireland and become a United Ireland which makes eminent sense and is logical to most people if the people of Northern Ireland vote for the up then they would do so on the basis of believing it would be better economically for the families for the children for school and for all of the 7 seas across the island that its safe to lee not to be rude i mean years ago you this it or that would never happen that is no time jubal prospect and following up on Northern Ireland the federation of Small Businesses there has weighed in with their disappointment over mr johnsons qualities in the deal over the socalled backstop issue so setting aside the timetable could mr johnson still lose on a final passage whenever it comes over these lukewarm reviews on the merits of the all from business groups and this very interesting backstop backlash. That is new do done there on a whole series of crucial debate still to come on this was that all agreement it was supported to d. In principle with a majority of 30 that included the number of libor m. P. s 19 labor m. P. s voted for the out with that all agreement however it no goo is to the detailed examination and thats where m. P. M. P. s compute amendments and one of those amendments for instance could be the fatal deal as a referendum of the whole of britain again so that people get to vote on whether or not they support this do not make noise when support of parliament but you know what. Was borders johnson how we know lost the support of the d p i mean b. For all of that we should manage to keep the do you be on board but as joins is driven them off because hes done things in relation to this deal in relation to a home ireland released to Northern Ireland and the European Union which. From the utopian the england and wales and scotland that that has been too much for the do you to swallow. And susie as for the do you think that a reactionary party i think the rate want to. Think. Of the union ive been in the main by joins is do show that is new got into the new got in t. V. That this will fail really goes through parliament i still believe my general election is more lately than this deal going through before the 31st october there is a solid prediction from Tommy Sheridan former scottish m.

Time now for a quick break but hang here because just on the other side you know we were drama continues that softbank moves in to take over the whole working off a start up investigative journalist fans want to standing by to give us the latest on the war that we go to break here the number of our callers. Her. There are no official statistics in india consenting children who have been lost all separated from their parents some to estimate that everything 8 minutes in the country the child goes missing. Im not. Looking at. The National HumanRights Commission stating that 44000. 00 minors go missing every year while the police quoted. The United NationsChildrens Fund has described the situation as genocide and various sources suggest that in india there are several 1000000 missing women and children. In a world of big partisan movies. And conspiracy its time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. And shouting past each other its time for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. During the Great Depression which im old enough to remember there was most of my family were unemployed. And it wasnt it was bed you know much worse objective listen today but there was an expectation that things were going to get better. There was a real sense of hopefulness there isnt today todays america where shape my the 10 principles of concentration of wealth and power. Reduce democracy at track so low do no engineer election manufacture consent another prince according to. One set of rules for bridge. Thats what you put her into the. Will which really is dedicated to increasing virtue of just. One of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization the america. Softbank is in advance talks to take control of we were whose valuation saw a spectacular fall from 47000000000. 00 earlier this year to now under this new deal worth only 8000000000. 00 about a 6 of what the company was america go under this new deal soft bank would put more money into we work to purchase up to 3000000000. 00 in equity along with 1500000000. 00 in acceleration of equity has already committed now this is on top of the more than 10000000000. 00 that soft bank has already funded we work with over the years as its largest investor in addition c. E. O. At a newman would receive one point 7000000000. 00 to step down from the board of directors give up his Voting Rights and walk away from the company the week company is now focused on cutting costs in order to survive selling off excess and nonessential portions of the business several the startups it acquired are for sale and it is now gary up for more massive layoffs but with the money running out we worked. Running into a catch 22. 00 as it is so short on cash it doesnt have enough money to pay severance to the affected workers the company also said it would cease operating at school we grow after the school year. And to break down the latest episode in this corporate draw we bring back investigative journalist ben swan so soft and just say more good money right after bad money and it reported that we work needed to command 20 4000000000. 00 in valuation just to break even for a soft bank so now that it has sunk another couple 1000000000 down theyre really doubling down on their bet and cost averaging down essentially so what do they plan on doing with we work after assuming control. Well thats a really good question i mean part of it is to get new leadership in there one of the top executives from soft banks already going to move in who also by the way was an executive with sprint they are going to actually take over kind of the path forward whats interesting about we work is its a company you mentioned that it doesnt have the money to do anything because it doesnt make any money its this is such an interesting story because you have a company that never made money it was a great idea its completely been funded on investment and now the c. E. O. Who drove it into the ground walks away with one point 7000000000. 00 and softbank is continuing to go after it thinking they can turn it into something maybe they can but were talking about having to get that valuation to at least 15000000000. 00 just to make up for the money theyre putting in right now. And weve always weve had this prevailing culture in the Digital Economy air of founders 1st right and we touched on this before Mark Zuckerberg built facebook you on mosque built doors he created twitter and theyre used to being treated a savant and geniuses that can do things other people cant and they follow different rules from everybody else do you think though that this disaster changes that mentality and we may be turning toward something different. Well i think it changes the mentality of believing that companies can exist simply on the investment and never have to turn a profit and that they can be in a constant cycle of investment before hitting an i. P. O. I mean look if you are just any investor and someone comes to you when asked for money one of the 1st questions are going to ask is how much money are you making right now and why would this make money that is not the question thats been asked of tech world for years and certainly not moving into an i. P. O. When they go to the public and say we want to offer this to you one thing that has not been required is that you can actually make money with your idea you can build out these fantastical things and then have them not turn a profit so we are in a very interesting time i think in terms of. Yes turning the corner on that because a lot of people would look at adam newman and say you know heres a guy who really drink his own koolaid and believe a lot of things about itself and hes the one who walks away with all the money nobody else is going to come out smelling like a rose here or maybe a soft bank if they can turn this thing around and make it work but for the other employees who are there most of the employees who are considered now not essential are going to be laid off theyre going to be significant layoffs of people losing their jobs as he walks away with his money because it wasnt real and so i think thats where were turning the corner is to say its enough of this kind of fantasy land tech world does it make money or doesnt it well before you start celebrating has paid a with this payout newman could have the potential to pocket 970000000. 00 after deducting both legal and liabilities but that hes actually still on the hook for about 2000000000. 00 and it simply exposure and now we also have recently testified under oath that he is also financially and liquid so why have the world see these guys as visionaries from here and looks like more like their total frauds and con artists for investors so why do we give them so much credit. Well we give them credit because they love still get to live the lifestyle as if they are truly billionaires who actually have something that is that is liquid and i think what we when we look at a lot of these companies is that you know a great example. Out of newman a guy who yes hes going to walk away with a bunch of money and then as you said he has extreme exposure but softbank is really cutting him a lot of deals and kind of funneling a lot of different money to him but interesting lee soft thing by itself appears to not really make money gets not a 70 investor in fact most of the money soft think is making is because they dont pay taxes in japan because they shift the losses between their companies and so theres a lot kind of if you look at them by themselves they dont necessarily make money theyre not necessarily brilliant when theyre doing so it feels like it feels i think to a lot of people like its a big shell game where these guys are able to live these lives and live as if they are unbelievably wealthy but there isnt actually money or value in anything theyre doing but i think we had to get to this point for some of this to come up at some point it has to crash at some point it has to come falling down i guess this is that point maybe this is where if it gets so you make it reaches the end of the line cryptocurrency analysts and investigative journalist means one thing going to break it what are these guys. What the odds of a traitor is between china and the u. S. Still in limbo china is determined to become more selfreliant so that the u. S.
