Im here on the road to lahaina. This is as close as we can get to the community. And what i want to show you right now is the scene here. If we just move over here i want to give you a picture of these dry conditions here on the island of maui. You can see there the dry grass, the drought here, which has been a persistent problem for many months. You can also see the high winds. And these high winds really have been an issue in fanning those flames and they are leading to more concerns, ever present concerns from authorities about the prospect for flare ups in these places. Im going to move out of the way so you can look over my shoulder here. What you can see is this is the last Police Check Point here on the road to lahaina here, everyone on the road here is stopped and asked questions about why they are going on. And many people are then forced to turn around in this lane here and essentially turned back, because right now they are only allowing Emergency Workers in. Its coming at a

Hi there, thank you for being with us. We begin with an ongoing tragedy in hawaii. At least 36 people have died in wildfires and President Joe Biden has issued a major Disaster Declaration. Hawaiis governor says it was the deadliest Natural Disaster for hawaii for generations and he expects the number of deaths to go up significantly. Thousands of people have been forced to leave their homes and hospitals are treating patients for burns and smoke inhalation. Our North America correspondent nomia iqbal has this report.

So the picture is bleaker than it was at the beginning of the year . Why then are you looking now to cut taxes at all . These forecasts change the whole time. What happened in the autumn was that the forecast went in our favour unexpectedly, quite close to the end. So i was able to introduce the biggest business tax cuts
