"A court has ruled against prince Harry's offer to personally pay for police protection in the UK. I'm Lisa dwyer. A London judge has ruled against prince Harry and his efforts to pay for police protection when he visits Britain. The ruling rejected the Duke of Sussex's assertion that the British government exceeded its authority when it denied his request to hire police. The British government stopped providing security after Harry and his wife Meghan quit their royal duties and moved to California in 2020. Harry says he does not feel safe visiting with his young children and has cited aggressive paparazzi. He is separately challenging the decision to deny him government paid security. I'm Lisa dwyer

Prince Harry seeks to challenge denial of request to pay for own UK police protection

"A lawyer for prince Harry says he should be allowed to challenge a government decision. That's denied him the right to pay for police protection when he visits the UK. The hearing in the security case centers around Harry's claim that he doesn't feel safe bringing his young children Archie and lilibet from the U.S. to visit his home country without a police security detail, a spokesperson for the prince has said his U.S. security team doesn't have jurisdiction abroad or access to the intelligence in the UK, the British government had stopped providing security for Harry after he and his wife Meghan quit their royal duties and moved to California in 2020, the case is one of 6 Harris got pending in court, the center around two issues whose security and claims the British tabloids hacked his phone.

Nurses' strike in England to be cut short after court ruling

"Britain's high court has ruled that part of the strike planned for next week by thousands of nurses is illegal. The court decision hands the British government a small victory in its bitter dispute with public sector unions. The court said a 6 month strike mandates given to the Royal College of nursing by a member's boat, expires 28 hours after the upcoming strike begins. That means the union will not be able to walk out for a full 48 hours as plans for the first time the walkouts will include nurses working in intensive care, emergency rooms, and cancel wards,

The Telegraph: China Is Preparing for War With the West

"Matthew Henderson again At the telegraph it's busily pursuing asymmetric warfare with the United States and the rest of the free world While building up arsenals of everything from drone swarms and lasers to nuclear warheads and hypersonic missiles capable of winning or forestalling full on nuclear hostilities The only reason one would acquire these weapons is the expectation of future confrontation with the west It plainly shows who they perceive the real enemy to be Us You and me And I don't know how many more times I can say this This is exactly the reason why Biden needs to be thrown out So called peacetime and peaceful coexistence are not in the communist dictionary Some commentators might argue that nuclear proliferation can not be solved without China But the CCP's bid for world domination and place of the declining west Is backed by massive nuclear proliferation Can Britain alone alter this by continuing to engage remember this is a British newspaper But it applies to the United States It's equivalent The same disconnection from reality informs the notion That sobbing global warming requires cooperation with Beijing It is heavily dependent on coal whose idea of cleaner energy involves geostrategic quantities of imported oil and gas from Russian Iran Regime in power the chances of a serious reduction in China's emissions seem slim The British government and I'll say the American government is also keen to emphasize the importance of working with China to prevent future pandemics

Nigel Gardiner Weighs in on Biden's Removal of Churchill Bust

"Joining me right now for more on Biden's overseas trip and importantly on this old coronation event and how this thing is going down because the scuttle is Meghan Markle's not going to go. I'm sure the royals are gravely disappointed over that one. Anyway, joining me right now, Niall Gardner. So Obama took down the Churchill bust. I remember that. That was like a big international incident. And then that's something that Trump put back, and then this is getting kind of repetitive. It's like revolving door, with Churchill there. And then Biden comes into office he takes it down again. What kind of effect does that have on the British people and the British government? Well, I think it sends a very insulting message to the British people after all Churchill is a greatly loved figure in the UK is also very much loved in the United States as well. So it sounds completely the wrong signal, a very negative message. And that was day one of the Biden presidency. So an incredibly bad move by Biden sneering arrogant and hugely dismissive, of course, towards America's closest friend and ally. Understandable. So we're now in a situation where Joe Biden has made it clear. He doesn't really value the UK, his historic ally, over say France, or Germany, it kind of reminds me of what's going on with Saudi Arabia. Is that a fair comparison in any way? I think that Biden's treatment of Israel has been also very dismissive actually. And Israel and the UK are incredibly important allies for the United States and Biden has treated both with real contempt just as Obama did before him. And I would say that Biden is alienating America's closest friends and allies on the international stage. It's an extremely destructive path forward.

Why Did Adam Nicolson Write His New Book "God's Secretaries"?

"Of all, I always like to ask authors, why did you write this? Well, I came to a very odd route, a couple of years ago, in fact, in 1999, I was writing a book for the British government about a disastrous project they had called the millennium dome. I don't know if word of the millennium dome reached you over there. What didn't reach me personally, I can't speak for all my listeners. It was a huge, vastly expensive costing 1 billion pounds. One and a half $1 billion. Project to make us kind of grand celebration of the British national spirit. All the threads of British life were meant to be unified in this great circus tent in Greenwich in East London. And I was employed by the government to, well, not to beat about the voice to propagandize for it to rise in account of it as the most marvelous thing that ever happened. It was in the end, a complete disaster full of terrible bitter arguments and kind of a popular failure terribly criticized in the press and the generally a disaster. When I was doing it, a friend of mine said, of course, the thing you should be writing about is the King James Bible. Because the King James Bible in the early 17th century was also a great central government project aim aiming to unify all the different threads in the nation at the time. Bringing together vast numbers of very diverse people. And out of that, out of those same circumstances, which have made this modern disaster, the most beautiful book ever written in the English language emerged. And how did that happen? And I think that that is the question at the heart of my book.

I have a couple more European places that I'm going to you might be touching on Israel. It should be a really interesting conversation. It might be a little controversial. I'm going back to many places in Africa that I really want to touch on. So this might be a pretty African centric year, but we're going to have some surprises along there too.

And then I also have a bubble. Tell us what you told us in the beginning. What are you doing back home right now? What's your efforts doing right now? Trying to start a community here in Jamaica. It's been long enough. I've been doing all my research. I have a damn near PhD in Bitcoin. So now it's time to start spread the love, get a community going here, get a meetup started here. And you know, maybe get some people giving back from our community too. I mean, it's going to help us all in the end. So I want to do my share from my own home country. I love it, bro I've honestly, I've had kind of the same thoughts. I do so much on the Internet.

"And what governments are trying to use as they're trying to use their monopoly on violence, they're trying to use coercion to force people to use a money they decide, which is absolutely crazy. It's bonkers to me that this is the world we live in, but I mean, this is what the peaceful revolution is about. How are you feeling Bobo in terms of the global awareness? And if people are really awakened to this alternative because from my experience as content creators, that's one of the things that does keep me up at night a little bit where just some people they continue specifically in the United States, right? It's like, oh yeah, she's great. But people are really asleep to the actual the actual the actual shift in society that's happening, right? That people could, for the first time in history, using non state money that is deflationary in nature and by because it's deflationary nature, all of a sudden, if people adopt a Bitcoin standard, their ability to plan for the future, or look into the future, is there that you can't do that under a Fiat standard, right? You're constantly having to work harder and harder and harder for less and less and less money. So where do you think, how are you feeling about that specifically? Yeah. That's a hard question, right? But I'll take it back to kind of where I started, which is that the world is, we're so early. Opti said we're super early. We are really early from a global standpoint from the way people are thinking about this. We are still in the Internet TCP IP, but it understand what an IP address is to use the Internet phase. I don't even feel like we're in the AOL phase yet. I feel like when people think about Bitcoin right now, they're still thinking about something that they are regular person can't understand without either dedicating some time to it or dedicating some kind of learning or dedicating some of their resources to it.

"Of digitalization so far is that new products and services enabled by new technologies can be adopted very rapidly at scale. I mean, what about Bitcoin? What's going on? I don't see how a Central Bank digital currency solves the problem as to why people are choosing to opt out in the first place, which is inflation. That's the, that's the value proposition. That is the alternative that Bitcoin provides. They don't talk about that. They don't even acknowledge it. They try to ignore it. They're not playing by the same rules. They're making the adoption of Bitcoin difficult. It's very obvious. And then this goes back to a question that I was asking Natalie smolensky yesterday on simply Bitcoin IRL, which is it looks like Bitcoin is exposing incentives like it always does. This time is no different. And I think it's highlighting that governments are not really by the people for the people. Governments are by the government for the government. And I think Bitcoin is just exposing that. And I think this whole facade of, oh, it's for your safety. Oh, it's for, you know, stopping money laundering, but at the same time trying to introduce a Central Bank digital currency, which will give these governments complete totalitarian control over society like us and what's happening in China with the social credit system, they're just pushing that right forward. They're not acknowledging that money can exist without inflation. They're not acknowledging the downsides of Central Bank digital currencies. In fact, they're choosing to ignore them. And I think that is the biggest tell. Boba, what are your thoughts on all this? This is pretty close to home for me because you don't even have to look as far as China to see how it's affecting and what it's doing. The first western nation state to have CBDCs as a national currency is Jamaica. We have it today, fully piloted and working right now, but you'd think that CBDCs is a response to something like Bitcoin that is inflation resistant and free. The CBDC is not even built on a blockchain. In Jamaica, the CBDC is built on a relational database that you can use in any other product. And it's also controlled by the back of Jamaica. It has a single point of failure. So all they've done is digitized the same dollar with the same inflation rate and now they have control over how you spend the money because they can cut off a digital dollar at any point in time. The good news of this, which I like to talk about at the grassroots grassroots part of this is that it's been less than 2% adoption after a year and a half of aggressive marketing towards the Jamaican people. So I think there's still a chance that people realize the CBDC is just a to your point Niko a response to what Bitcoin is showing people and people are still going to in the long term. They're going to pick freedom over just another form of slavery. A 100%. And that's exactly what it is. It's literally another form of slavery. And just because just because they choose to try to sweep under the rug, all the potential cons, the Central Bank digital currencies, it doesn't mean that people aren't going to notice. And the example that I always give is what's happening in Nigeria. The Nigerian government and I think that they definitely had pressure from the United Nations and the World Economic Forum and all that stuff. They released a Central Bank digital currency, but it's having very, very little adoption in the country.

"They don't want you to hold your own money and take self custody of your own money. The fact that, you know, whether it's in Britain, an organization is saying, look, this is how much Bitcoin you can buy per day in the European Union. It's like, oh, the lawmakers are allowing people to take self custody. You know, how good of them, you know, how noble of them, how thoughtful of them, it's just such a ludicrous conversation. The conversation should be the other way around, is like, why are people why are there powerful bureaucrats that have the power to get to pick and choose what money you're entitled to use and what money you're not entitled to use and whether you have the ability to take self custody of that money. Anyways, privacy enhancing crypto assets and anonymizing instruments, including privacy wallets or crypto mixers, may be prohibited under the current text of the anti money laundering regulation draft bill, according to documents seen by the block. When it comes to rules on transaction limits, the latest version of the European Parliament's review of the and the anti money laundering Bill resulted in changing up the language to self hosted addresses from self hosted wallets. With this change, policymakers aim to clarify their objective of preventing non custodial wallets from existing without being linked to an identified account on a crypto service provided like an exchange. The previous wording could have implemented implied that crypto service providers in the U would have been prohibited from providing non custodial services altogether. I don't know about you guys, but I've never heard that term self hosted address in the Bitcoin white paper. Never heard it, don't know what it is. There's an address, you have the private keys for it, or you don't have the private keys for it. But the reason they have to frame it this way is it's very difficult for governments to control the money flows of millions upon millions of individuals taking self custody of their Bitcoin, which is why we say on the show, if enough people take self custody, we will win the peaceful revolution. There's absolutely nothing they could do about it. So they put pressure on intermediaries. So they need those intermediaries to exist. Anyways, self hosted wallets will be subject to a transaction limit of a €1000 if the owner can not be identified. This align with the TFR requiring originator and beneficiary data on crypto transactions of the same cap. So again, who are they going to put pressure on open-source hardware software developers to implement that limit? What's going on there? And it's a very, very slippery slope. Now, getting back to the UK, Bank of England, right? So you're thinking about all these things, right? You're like, okay, why are they doing this? Here's an article by the Financial Times. The surprising effectiveness of crypto regulation. It goes on to say, that the privilege of legitimacy interfering a regulation must be conditioned on an adequate answer to the existential question of crypto. What is the purpose? I don't know. What is the purpose?

"Dollars, realized monetary inflation, 1.76%, and the market capitalization of Bitcoin, 448 billion U.S. dollars in the grand scheme of things. Bitcoin is still a baby. Anyways, I want to play you a clip of an executive from block. Jack Dorsey's company. And she is on CNN. And they were asking about the revenue of the last year, what she had to say about it. And she also did something quite funny, which I think is a metaphor in all this. Anyways, let's check it out. Bitcoin, you have, I think, about one point 8 $3 billion as of Q four. In terms of revenue down 7%, you also have Bitcoin on your balance sheet. How much is there right now? Over a $130 million of Bitcoin on our balance sheet as of the end of the year with a fair market value being above that. Look, ultimately for us, this is a long-term potentially transformational initiative to build utility into the Bitcoin ecosystem. We believe the Internet needs a currency. That will help bring down inefficient costs in the system that exist right now, particularly for underserved consumers around the world and in emerging markets. So our focus here is on the ways in which we can help build resilience utility into the Bitcoin ecosystem. But we're doing that in a disciplined way. Dude, dude, dude. I mean, is this the normalization of these laughing? Is this the normalization of Bitcoin? I mean, Bobo, you've been here for a little bit. And so if we, I don't think we could have ever imagined this type of conversation on the legacy corporate media like that. So what's your take on that? I agree. I mean, there's been many points in time where we've seen that a paradigm shift in the way people think about it and what we expect. It happened first when large corporations like micro strategy started buying. It happened again when entire nations like El Salvador started to pay attention and making it legislation. And now we're seeing it in places like the mainstream media where people are actually giving out recommendations for the long-term strategies for Bitcoin and not just doing it themselves. So I really feel these part I'm ships are going to continue. And it's going to become more normalized man.

Sunak says U.K. has reached deal with EU on Northern Ireland trade

"The British government says it's reached a deal with the European Union to resolve their long running trade dispute over Northern Ireland. Prime minister Rishi sunak says he and European Commission president Ursula von der leyen would hold a news conference on Monday. The government had previously said it would only happen if a deal was struck government officials have told the BBC and Sky News that the deal has indeed been done. The agreement marks a breakthrough in a spat that soured post Brexit relations between Britain and the EU and sparked a political crisis in Northern Ireland, but now sunak awaits the judgment of Northern Ireland's democratic unionist party or DUP, which is boycotting the region's power sharing government until the trade arrangements are substantially changed.

"That for over a year, politics was entirely dominated by that. That being said, there's no doubt I don't think from the economic evidence that Brexit is having a negative impact on the UK economy and that many firms are feeling the impact of the new trading barriers with Europe, which is making it harder for them to trade with Europe. Yeah. Having said that, I suppose, supporters of Brexit would say, how can you argue this kind of counterfactual Bloomberg economics estimates that the UK economy is a 100 billion pounds a year worse off because of Brexit, supporters would say, how can you really make that case impossible to know? Well, with great difficulty admittedly, and with all due respect to Bloomberg economics, I'm slightly leery about trying to put an exact figure on this. But if you combine the aggregate numbers that show that relative to other advanced economies, UK trade hasn't bounced back from the pandemic as much as other major economy plus the proliferation of anecdotal stories from businesses. Plus, good modeling evidence from economists showing that there is a link, for instance, between Brexit and a degree of inflation in things like food prices. And I think it's very, very hard to avoid the fact that the vast majority of professional economists are saying that their work points towards a Brexit impact. Albeit that those same economists might disagree on what precisely the scale of that impact is. It does seem like that some progress is being made on one of the stickiest issues the UK and the you have been dealing with their relationship the Northern Ireland protocol, our sources reporting that they are expecting they're said to say that a deal on many of parts of that is within sight. Are you hopeful that a resolution is eminent? Not particularly I have to say. I mean, we've been here before. There have been a number of times while this row over the protocol is dragged on when we be told we're within touching distance of a deal. And the problem here is, even though some progress has been made on parts of this, is there a real substantive differences between the two sides. And what we don't know at the moment is, for instance, the British government had insisted that they wanted the protocol rewritten. They wanted the role of the European court of justice taken out of it. The EU had maintained they weren't rewrite the protocol and the European court of justice has to have a role in Northern Ireland. And I'm still rather skeptical as to whether or not that can be fudged. But we'll wait and see, I very much hope that there's an agreement, but at the moment all we're hearing is positive mood music and I think we're going to have to wait because as ever the devil is going to be in the detail. What do you make then? Away from that of the idea that there are Brexit benefits to be had, the Chancellor Jeremy hunt again put this case when he spoke both in an interview and also in a speech here at the Bloomberg building on Friday, pointing pitching the idea that Britain is a hub for high growth high-tech industries, but that there are benefits to be drawn from Brexit. I'm sure there are benefits to be drawn from Brexit and I'm sure that, for instance, in some high-tech areas by being outside the European Union, the UK has an opportunity to regulate smarter and quicker than the European Union and potentially attracting wood investment. That is a gamble. We don't know that yet. So it's a potential benefit of Brexit if we get it right. And what you've got to do is add to that the fact that if say the UK diverges significantly from the European Union in, for instance, gene editing regulation. The problem will have is that we might be able to attract inward investment, but we might not be able to sell the goods that are made on the back of that investment to the European Union because our regulations are different. So it's a fine balance. Well, I would say, I'm not aware of any serious economists who think that over the short term medium term, those sorts of benefits will outweigh the costs in terms of trade being hit by Brexit in terms of the overall macroeconomic picture. That being said, part of the case for Brexit wasn't economic, it was political, wasn't it? So we now do get to control who comes into our country. We have a whole new immigration system. And that is fundamentally changed the profile of immigration into this country. So it's not as if there aren't things we can do at the end of Brexit. I'm just slightly suspicious of claims that Brexit is going to make our economy bigger than it would have been had we stated. However changes to the immigration system actually helped the UK economy, though, we're constantly hearing about the shortage of workers. Well, it's a mixed picture, isn't it? Because what we've seen is a change in the profile of integration. So in some of the lower skilled lower paid areas of economic activity, we're seeing labor shortages because people wanting to do those jobs don't qualify under the new rules. On the other hand, if you're keen to see us getting more IT technicians in from the developing world, Brexit is certainly allowed us to do that because what we've seen is a massive increase on inward migration flows from outside Europe. Okay, looking to the future, your report looks at the potential next steps in the relationship between the UK and the EU is a closer relationship possible and in exactly what ways you think. I think a closer relationship is possible in several ways. Firstly, in terms of mood music, which are just a bit cynical about a moment ago. I think diplomatic relations can be improved if we have a government that wants to work with the European Union and doesn't see political gain to be had from being seen to be in a permanent fight with the European Union. And I think given the deal we have, there are areas, for instance, security and defense cooperation, where you can easily see the two sides negotiating something in addition to what we already have. What I think is worth stressing, though, is given the state of politics in the UK and given the EU's, I think, slight apprehension about dealing with the UK these days. We're not going to see any real qualitative advance on the trade in cooperation agreements in the foreseeable future. By the ad council and

There's gonna be more that we can talk about and You know because we're things are unfolding quickly right now and we're slowly on how it tends to play out in your mind yeah What is so. What's going on now once you started with the medical process though That's when you decided to go more. The entrepreneurial route in you started looking at. What is it that you wanted to do. So i know you're already big into fitness and everything else but what made you decide all right. This is the direction that i wanna go. Yes so i started I sort of the social media stuff in september last year so I you know my wife. And i were talking and wanted to start a business together When we moved back to nebraska one opened up a wedding venue and so our wheels. We're starting to turn already like we knew that this what this life you know was going to be behind us real soon or real not real. Soon we'll everyone look good. Yeah you were hoping he was going to be real soon. Yeah yeah and so. We have no idea about business whatsoever at all like i'd never been to college for marketing. My wife's never been a college marketing like we didn't know shit and so We started Alva- country business and But my first country the the name of it you know. I i think while i was over there Seeing the all the afghans talk about america in in really like what. America meant to them. made me realize how much of a i guess alpha country this is everybody looks at us as like they're fucking number one Whether be in war the best place to live like whatever. America is number one. And i don't think that's gonna fuck and change. No matter with whatever's going on. I think we have way too many people in america to ever allow that shit to to to actually happen So we found catchy name. You know what i mean like. I said we had no idea really familiar doing. And we want to start with Just some some shirts or whatever until we found another seventh group veteran and was like hey can you make verse and then we realized that the clothing thing is not really what our focus is on. You know what i mean. How can we actually make an impact. And i started. You know really paying attention to the messages that i was getting on instagram in realize like finally realized what people wanted an and really they just want knowledge. I mean knowledge and experiences. What can help a lot of people not fucking make the same mistakes as you did. and so. that's why. I started to brainstorm what i could give back and what would not just give back for the time that i'm saying it but resonate for a long time. And that's why. I made those operation alpha programs. So you know you're a phase. One was special forces assessment selection train up so six weeks of nothing but grueling workouts. You're going to do in selection and myself and another green bay from group ran this program while we were training up so we just didn't have it piece together and then i made a second phase for the were typical workout. So we'd be doing on a team like that will never have to go away. You know what i mean. As long as i wanted to be up there. I don't have to continue to talk about it. But it can always help out some future ranger cater. Future green beret. That wants to go down this path. If you want to know what like how hard it's going to be in taxing on your body. It's going to be run this program dude and you'll and you'll see and So yeah i started out with that and then doors started opening up man. I got involved with Wego home ram by Trung he messaged me and he kind of just spilled his vision on where he where he saw the company going and He was still kinda tied in with another group so he went so low.
