The biden wants and that he may get. I hope not. i hope not. But he's already got the trillion for infrastructure. Now he wants three point five more. He's got to raise taxes. But this just came in today federal taxes. That's money received from you and me record-breaking in july the feds got a record amount of money federal taxes record. July real. Federal spending is up forty eight percent. That's fine hispanics. Forty eight percent but tax receipts in one month. Three and a half trillion. Wow but the government spending six trillion. Now all it is so go down because you know biden wants to get this money out there. So you re elect the democrats. Wa- was doing participation believable so three point three trillion and taxes were collected in this quarter according to the treasury staggering. They want more. Do wanna double it and that will keep everybody dependent on the government. Okay so there's a fox hole fox polls are not reliable as you know. I don't know why but they're not but in the methodologies forty-one percent democrat republican forty-three. It's first poll. I saw that has more republicans. Democrats independents sixteen question was. Are you concerned about inflation. Eighty six percent of americans say yes fourteen saito. Who are those people. They don't know what a flation is. All right who's responsible for rising prices. Kobe eighty-six percent government economic policy. Seventy nine percent would be responsible for rising prices. I really don't know how cove is responsible. Vaccines free now. Cost a lot of money to develop it and that trump misery pay the drug companies. But i don't really get anywhere. Decibel afghanistan fall apart so while joe biden's out on a beach in delaware television signal josie ortega afghans gonna fight. Yeah all right. I'd say the same thing. But i wouldn't pull that everybody. Joe i would've kept two thousand special forces there today. Could conduct air cover from barbara. Someday i'll tell you about barbara interesting place.

We'll come back with the male and the final thought of the day from what you have to do to help your country right now. Okay let's get to the mouth. Let's go to robert. L. gas in woodstock georgia bill. I like your idea of the stage bringing legal action against president biden for failing to protect them on the board. But i fear. The democrat. Governors will not take part does not need them so if you listen to my spot on it. The hattie radio program. Yesterday which posted a bill o'reilly dot com and go into this class action suit brought by the republican governors. And you know maybe a couple of democrats would do it to sue. Joe biden personally because he wrote the executive orders wasn't congress that destroyed border security. And now we're paying a price kovin narcotics flow into the country. Two million migrants. So it'll go through the federal system and that will rattle their chains blaming the message board. Janet concierge member direct access to me. Thank you janet. How would that work bill. Do you mean su- biden personally for encouraging and allowing the invasion of us southern border. Yeah now he's indemnified but remember. He did this on his own. So what i wanna get. Is this explain to everybody. Might not win it but you have to cover. Be huge first time in history weighing your science. What science is being used. Push political agenda. Don't trust the science at that point. It is a science anymore. Okay i blew wayne's letter. He's fairly say look when a party political party movement take science and then twists it around to advance on agenda. You don't trust it. And i agree that happens global warming and it's happening covy watson finger katy texas bill. The left was successful and dividing the country on recent class.

"He said all the right things after the fact but he's still was taken out of a national championship game. Because one of the best coaches ever said. I can't win with this guy. I gotta change it up. So he did. He is what he is a guy that you certainly would love to have as a teammate. No doubt about it. I want him in the fox hole with me because of his toughness and everything about it but when it comes to who do. I want as my quarterback i want the guy that had me at eleven in to the guy that had me. That was an mvp candidate because really around talent. And i know that when he's done having these issues that was a personnel problem. That was guys around in that. He's like i can't trust it. I'm not about to get my clock cleaned right now. Because he got hit a lot. You that offensive. Line getting old and breaking down. He didn't trust anything happening in front of him. He's in indianapolis is a fresh start and a coach who believes in them. It allows him to go back to be in that guy in two thousand seventeen that we saw. I think it's important to note fellous and listen. We all know the game of football. And i understand absolutely what you guys are saying man but when i look at this situation i'm not looking at it from from comparing everybody around. The league. dallas went through the same exact thing they would do the same thing and obviously people around you and the team around. You is going to impact a lot of that performance. I remember watching jalen hurts it at first game against the saints saying they got some he could play in this league. Obviously you've gotta surround them with talent like any other quarterback dak prescott was drafted in the fourth round. They never planned on him. Seeing the feel it tony romo back went out and all of the talk about dak prescott was he was wrong. He was ready. He didn't have all you needed to have the be a starter in this lee. And i'm not saying that gives the greatest thing since sliced bread but we all in agreeance. I believe that you can win with dak prescott if you him in the right situation and have the right guys around him i think that for jalen hurts carson which is going to have to prove to me that adversity can hit. He can answer the bail at fight through it. That's why right now. I'm taking jalen hurts because i've seen him fight through that already. So i do you see with the right pieces around. He certainly can win. I'd take that prescott either one of them. There's no question about. Because i believe that. Prescott a better quarterback both mentally and physically than both of those dues down. Well nobody say but in the end jalen hurts. Hasn't given me enough body of work. You talk about winning carson. Wentz showed us he can win. Lebanon to mvp of potential mvp of the leaving. You know all pro caliber player pro bowl. So he's giving us enough to say ourselves. I think we can win with him with everything around him. Jalen hurts his yet to do that. Because he's still young keyshawn to your earlier. Point to wentz might actually benefit from a change of scenery in indy. He will be reunited with his former offensive coordinator and former teammate. Yup yup frank reich and threw three touchdowns with him offensive coordinator in two thousand seventeen. All right thank you markets for the same place with both of these guys.

Cancel Culture: Slaying the Fox Monster
"We're going to cancel anybody. We disagree with cancel. Culture now has permeated every single part of our society. Sadly i predict it's only gonna get worse. Silence more dangerous voices. You know sean hannity. Maybe you're onto something in advance of an impeachment trial of ex-president on the grounds of inciting insurrection. There is growing sentiment for the cable. Channel that most amplified donald trump's ravings to be held accountable as well in the past week. The new york times washington post mother jones variety and cnn. All entertained musings about fox. One way or another being shunned from polite society. Washington post media columnist. Margaret sullivan declared quote corporations. That advertise on fox. News should walk away and citizens who care about the truth should demand that they do. Such is the post insurrection. Comeuppance zeitgeist after the january sixth riots mainstream social media rid itself of donald trump and thousands of other conspiracy theorists twitter. Dropped more than seventy thousand accounts devoted cunanan single day likewise partner. The extremist heavy twitter clone lost. it's internet host. Republican members of congress suddenly lost sources of campaign funds and donald trump himself lost crucial business relationships. Cancel culture sean. Well yeah more or less and so in this hour. We address two questions first. What if fox news were to be neutralized or at least radically ostracized and secondly in a democratic society in which free speech is foundational. Is that an outcome. We really want. Both questions are premised on the belief that whatever fox has been since one thousand nine hundred ninety six launch a megaphone for wedge issues fearmongering lies conspiracy theories culture. Wars has poisoned with sleep. Mutated it's no longer just an argument with the left. It's explicitly a safe space for insurrectionists and all those who imagine themselves under the heel of tyranny tens of millions of americans have no chance there are about to be crushed by the ascendant left. These people needed defender. You need a defender. Why is no one defending them. That was tucker carlson. One day after the storming of the capital which according to angelo kerosone president and ceo of the left leading advocacy group media matters for america exemplifies the channels dark and treacherous turn. They know that a part of their audience especially tucker's with this idea genocide that white culture is in some way being replaced in decayed and they are trying to appeal to that and they're warning them. They're coming for them. It's a political plain and simple. It's now standard operating procedure in the democratic party. Are you or have you ever been a supporter of donald trump on put a scarlet letter tv on supporters. This is a slippery slope. Are people going to say. We're not going to sell you a car. A republicans. we're not gonna. We're not going to issue you a mortgage conservatives. I mean how far does this go. And you listen as the geniuses explain how the single biggest threat to country isn't chinese. Hegemony or even the coming hyperinflation. Pretty much uncertainty now. Which was one hundred percent caused by elite mismanagement of our economy. But no let's not talk about that. The real threat is a forbidden idea. It's something called that's carlson. Dismissing worries about cunanan a cult dedicated to dismantling government filled with pedophile cannibals. Which is something of a departure from historical conservative values of states rights fiscal responsibility a strong military and self reliance because you know cannibals. The last year in particular is when it certainly seemed as though the cauldron of him and lies. That fox news had been boiling boiled. Over and i think it affected. Everybody's lives i with kobe and all the misinformation and how they influenced the public health response and then in the aftermath of the election. An how they kind of built the framework that really helped undermine the results in the minds a so many of our fellow citizens and after the rage it had helped fuel finally materialized into violence. Did fox hole back humbled in jason over. Its own dark power. No just last week. Here was fox news founder. rupert murdoch. Australia denouncing not insurrection but cancel culture is rigidly enforced. Conformity didn't better. I circled central me. A straightjacket on sensitive -tuni- people have fought too hard in too many places for freedom of speech. To be suppressed for this awful woke orthodoxy murdoch's denunciation of political correctness was widely interpreted as a vow not to cave either to the bleeding hearts or to the even fringe ear conservative channels like newsmax and one american news where many maga- fateful fled on election night. When fox was the first call arizona for joe biden in the aftermath the perennial ratings leader skidded at least temporarily to third place in cable news and for now. Murdoch is steering into the skid. Npr's david folkenflik reports by taking even more news fox news one of their top news. Anchors martha mccallum. She was shifted from seven pm prime evening slot to three pm in the afternoon. And that is a major opinion our and let's be clear conservative opinion. Our among those auditioning is maria bartiromo an anchor. Who has made a lot of unfounded. Unhinged claims here's one from let's just for the sake of argument except that fox news channel has not only crossed a line but defiantly stayed there and thus the chorus of calls for boycotts by its advertisers and of its advertisers in order to starve the beast in the interest of full disclosure in other spaces. I myself have called for that very thing. This happens to be the work. Kerosone media matters has been undertaking. Four years with mixed success.

"Of the day Installations to 20. I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live but Christ, who lives in me on the life. I now live in the flesh. I live by faith in the son of God. Who loved me and gave himself for me. Simon cynic says a leader must be inspired by the people before a leader can inspire. The people. No, that's coming out of Simon. Right now. We're seeing that out of Pat Lynch peony, and we're past new book, The motive. We're seeing it in the materials that were putting an entree leadership right now. There seems to be something in the air. To remind people that, um Leadership is not a Position with a corner office and a big paycheck that you aspire to. It is a Duty. It is a responsibility. Um, And sometimes it comes with a paycheck and a corner office. But if you're aspiring to the corner office without the duty and without the responsibility, um you're not going to end up being a leader. You're just gonna be another one of these twerps could be an achiever. Big difference. Somebody worry about optics instead of principles. This right leadership has a conviction because as a leader, a true leader, you begin to understand what it's like, and I've got a position authority and in some cases, the highest level of authority and where you're leading. And yet it has nothing to do with authority Has everything with you serving with you humbling yourself and leading the team. Diving into the problems taking the bullets protecting guiding coaching, You know, correcting it, Z. It's a conviction, you must understand to much heat. Again. Leadership. There's too much conflict and straw criticism that goes with leadership in unless you are doing it as an azan active service, you'll quit or you'll acquiesce. And you just fall in and you go well, I just got it. I'm worried about the way this looks rather than doing the right thing. That's exactly what's the right thing. You got to do the right thing, and you know you're the only one with all the details. You got to do the right thing, You know not what some little piss, ant says off to the side somewhere. You're called to the responsibility of being the people in that room have the information. And you got you gotta make the decision then and knowing that when you make it that you're gonna piss people off and in making the right the call the principal call instead of the call that makes people happy and looks the way it should look. One of my favorite images of leadership. It's from the movie. We were soldiers with Mel Gibson. He says. I'm the first one off the helicopter and on the last one on and that's a beautiful picture of what leadership is exactly right when the bullets were flying. Yeah, you don't leave the battlefield the Fox hole because you've been shot at. You don't know. No, there's no retreat. I've got men that are relying on my leadership in this moment. You know that's leadership. But you better have a conviction for you better care about the mission. Better care about the people or you will not make you will. You will not. I remember that was true battle. And that there was representing that movie. Oh, absolutely. Yeah. Vietnam? Absolutely. Yeah, I know. We had no man. I'm just saying that particular can't remember. The actual storyline was based on the story if I remember. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Military brings that out to some of some of the Most honorable servant leaders over my life for our senior military officer. There's a nobility on military officer that that's a good one summer jerks on some of my self centered just like any group leader. Sometimes you run into a tour, but that I mean, when, when we're on these major installations, his major bases and we're speaking of the military teams. On helping their people and you walk in and you're meeting a two star. Ah, ah, are you know Colonel or whatever the senior officer is in that setting. You almost always meet someone that there's a sense of calm, deliberate, noble leadership, And it's a sense of responsibility. Yes, not a sense of. Oh, I got the big guy. That's it. You just nailed it, and I'm not trying to be cheesy here. It just came to me. It's about the mission, not recognition. New leadership, but that's good. Well, I know you. I know you don't like it when I rhyme, but I can't help it. Sometimes I never made it as a rapper kid. That's what it is, but it really that's it. Um, like you, said, David. It's about the mission. All those military leaders. They're always about the mission. It's not about their their personal gain. I thought about their authority, their ego, and and so you know, again, it's a great quote from From from Simon. Because, just like, Look, you got to be inspired by the people that you're leading by what they're doing the results. They're trying to drive on Lee. Then can you actually inspire them? His second books on the second book was leaders eat last great military context throughout the entire trial title on them, too. So Yeah. Real leaders eat last leaders. Anything. I'm gonna watch. We were soldiers tonight. I might. It's been a long time since I've seen it just popped into my head. Such a great movie. All right, We're gonna go with a lease in Detroit. Michigan is up next. Hi, Elise. How are you? High days and can How are you guys better than we deserve. What's up? Um, So I have a question. It's probably okay.

Now, you know today and Security because the betting everything you ever said now our guest name is Brian Curtis. He's written a book called Fields of Battle. Pearl Harbor, the Rose Bowl and the Boys who went to war. The one year since 1902 that the Rose Bowl was not played in Pasadena, California It had to be moved from the West Coast after just just after Pearl Harbor had been attacked, and there were fears of attacks on our West Coast. And so the game was moved to Durham, North Carolina, where Duke and Oregon State battled it out. But it's not really the football game. That is the basis of this battle. That's just the setting. It is the fact that after the football game these boys went to war and Brian tell us that story. If you would Brother about 31 players on the Oregon State side that we're on that Rock Rose Bowl roster in 1942 and 29 of the 31 would end up serving Country now not all of them face combat overseas. Remember, a lot of young American men were here stateside, either in the supply chain or in training facilities, etcetera. On then on the Duke side of things about 80% of their team would end up suiting up in the military uniforms, so these players were scattered. Some entered the service immediately after the Rose Bowl game. In January. 1st 1942. Others had deferment because they were in ROTC programs, which allowed these students to get their college degrees first. Over the period of three years. They entered the war at different times, including do coach Wallace Wade through about seven weeks after the Rose Bowl loss. His team was upset by Oregon State kind of shocked the college football world. By saying that he was joining the army and, in fact wait to the age of 49 began training with an artillery unit and eventually served in Normandy and in France, Belgium and Germany, earning accolades and awards so It was a collective effort.

I write in fields of battle about how it in Oregon State player was in a fox hole in the Battle of the Bulge. And shared a cup of coffee and a jacket with a lieutenant colonel. And that turned out to be the Duke coach Wallace Wade. Oh, I tell a story about Frank Parker and telling you bumps. Wow. All right, go ahead. I I tell a story about Frank Parker and Charles chains. Frank played for Oregon State and Charles Haynes played for Duke and about 2.5. Years later, they find themselves in Italy together. Strike up a conversation realized that they had played in that same game a few months after that, after they grew close, their companies often fought side by side. Paintings charged up the hill was wounded by German assault weapons. And the artillery was too hard for his fellow soldiers to come save them, so he was Dying on a hill and laid there for 17 hours when Frank Parker got word that his body had been wounded. He rests his own life and went up there and with another soldier helped carry him to safety. Do you have these two players that were opponents on the football field?.

Fiat Chrysler finds new merger partner in Carlos Tavares
"French carmaker. PSA which owns Pirjo and Fiat Chrysler. Automobiles it's Italian American rival have agreed to pursue a merger that would create the world's fourth largest carmaker and reshape the ultimate of sector. I'm here with a motor industry correspondent Peter Campbell. And we're joined down the line by David Kayhan in Paris to discuss the merger. Hi Guys Peter Tell us first why these super super mergers have been considered at the moment. What's the rationale behind them earn? What's the most notable recent mergers in the sector so call makers of facing stresses from a lot of a different direction at the moment? They're facing falling sales in the facing the need to invest in some quite expensive new technologies electric cars. They need to sell to the C O talks across Europe and China as well as driverless vehicles and other such technologies that looking at now. What are these things cost money? And it makes very little sense for all of the world's carmakers call makers independently to spend the billions and billions that they need to develop this technology. It's much more sensible for them to tie up. A great proponent of this theory was Sergio Marconi the late former chief executive of fit cruiser who oversaw the merger between Fiat and Chrysler itself. WHO said the comic is need to tie up in order to avoid duplication teaching the list massive spending that they have to make? It's just too much cash. They need to splash right. So what are the relative strengths of the Fiat group. Compared to pressure so both companies are incredibly complementary geographically Peugeot exists almost entirely in Europe asam stuff outside Europe. But it's very very strong strong in Europe. Fat Chrysler despite being called fat is in fact predominantly in North America organization. Almost all of its profits. Come from selling pick-up trucks and very large. SUV's in the North North American region. It owns the ram heavy truck brand it ends jeep globally Lens Africa and Maserati and so for these companies they complement each other geographically and and what PSA has shown with its takeover of Opal which owns Fox hole in the last few years is that this is a company that can manage scale in European mass mass manufacturing so it already owns a number of volume brands in Europe. It audience Persian and sit. Trinidad's open phones Vauxhall. You would add to that fat if this merger went ahead head. And they've already showed that they can make these efficiencies of scale work within a single region within Europe which would be an advantage but PSA really although it's had an incredible Rana that's very profitable. Its growth is sort of come to an end really needs to try and push into North America which has plans to do unto its own steam and it really needs a serious premium. AM nameplate a merger with fair crews which is very strong in North America and has offer may a massive rati and jeep brings that I say so David John Elkin. WHO's the one of Italy's Agnelli families? The Italian billionaire behind axle which controls Fiat Chrysler and also the brains behind the proposed merger but his his attempt to do a similar deal with Renault early. This year failed at this plenty of examples of failure here. What happened there? Why did I go wrong? Defensive Him you ask really. FCA In parallel talks with Reynaud and Persia for quite a while but particularly since the start of the year. What people have told us that the whole time? They're in these as talks. They actually wanted runner. That was number one target. But I didn't know that so Iran may the news was given to the profoundly particular and generally that they were going to go over a nice over a good the only problem from. Sei's point of view. Is that across the table from the Reynolds argest shareholder was the French state. You might know that Renos found itself in a particular situation with its Japanese partner Nissan. And what the French state said was at Notre for the merger to go ahead. They wanted the explicit it consent agreement approval of Japan. They walked away. It was like ten days. The whole thing collapsed. It was a drama France. Tickets blamed by some sides if you took the French state on background they say maybe the deal wasn't as good for Renos. It could have been directing normal shareholder but either way John alcon sure. The French date didn't like what it was doing walked away dramatically and that leads us to PSA so would perjures Kosta virus preach batter partner. Do you think it depends. I mean I would cautiously say yes. Tavarez is a big personality big. Co elkhound is buying in is a guy who's not. It's going to take a backseat in any way he's going to be a CEO in charge driving strategy and Alcon will be classic chairman. You'd imagine it's kind of return to demark relationship. He had before maybe it was something. We didn't think he was totally on board. With an part of the reason he went Reynaud but where the project is definitely at nicer fit for FCA. Is that the French state is far less hands on this company. It has a shareholding but in Reynaud you could say that the French state is more like a family company shareholders. Huge emotional ties. It's the largest shareholder as well in Persia. It's a much more traditional shareholder it doesn't lockinge stakes. It's the joints are shareholder shareholder with both the Persian family and China's Dongfang. So you can see why it might be a better partner. Yes so notice. That are lex pages. Describe cried Mr Tavarez's quadri-lingual what kind of big personality is he. What kind of figure does he cut in the car? Industry globally so taveras is renowned and as one of the most capable executives across the automotive industry. If you look at his track record is performance. He came into Persia when they will almost bankrupt. He oversaw sore huge turnaround at the company then bought Opel. This was a company that General Motors couldn't make money out of twenty years. They turned that around in very short order and yet at the same time he doesn't have the gigantic room. Filling ego of some of the other executives in the auto industry would be more akin to traveling head of state when they it went overseas. Savar as who is a cost cutter to the core when he comes to the UK to visit the Vauxhall plant at Luton flies into Luton on EasyJet buys is is sandwiches in the corner shop before getting in a taxi to go over to the plant in his better than eight. Uneasy gentleman with US possibly explanation. But it's also true that he really has a way a of identifying with the ground level workforce as well as the executives and saying guys. You are the team here is up to you to deliver this turnaround plan has to go ahead. And he's been quite good actually particularly in the Opel turnaround of avoiding plant closures. No everybody thought when he bought Opel there we're going to have to shut factories and he said we're going to do this plan without shutting factories and they brought he managed that and what we expect from the FCA deal if it goes ahead. Is that going to make a commitment not to close any of either. I accompanies plants as a result of the turnaround as a result of trying to make savings here and so two Varas is seen. At least at the highest levels of most capable automative executives that gives at the moment and by some people is ranked the best glibly anywhere interesting David. How's he viewed inside of corporate France? If you like with a problem we have a terrorist journalist. This is not enough that stuff to say about him. It's genuine issue now. He's considered in France and piracy to be one of the best. I mean one of the reasons. The French government are supporting. This is because Tabarez is there. He's seen as being a safe pair of hands he sees having done a really great trainer ended Persia and he's seen as someone that they can trust in putting together this merger that's right but he has this cultural index territory. The allows him to associate with work in different countries so when he bought Opel everyone was naturally worried Opel. They were about to get fired but he walks into the headquarters Opel in Germany. All the stuff of April assembled there and his opening lines to the Marin German now he doesn't speak German but he'd learned some opening lines in German and was greeted with a big round of applause but also with the sense in the room that this was a guy who was on their side. It makes a big difference right okay. Personalities a site. Let's let's talk about some of the numbers here. What are the terms of the proposed? David I mean where would the merge creeped based for start. Well that's a very good question when that we don't really know the answer to yet. The idea is multiple As it stands but just very quickly so it's a fifty fifty all stock merger and there's going to be a special dividends and payouts. Either side equalized equalized values but analysts are suggesting that this looks like PSA buying FCA and part of the reason you can say that is the construction of the board Komo correct. He has eleven people five each plus Tavarez so the governance is tilted towards Paris. We will be watching to see where the operation headquarters is really eighty based where Tavarez sits even if I think Peter you might jump in here as well. FCA They're used to bring multiple countries in a way that maybe we'll create tensions. Well this brings us very nicely into the cultures of both companies to. FCA was a company that was borne out of this merger between Fiat and Chrysler and as such as a headquarters in London but but a major office insurance and a major office in Auburn Hills. Chrysler is based and whereas many car companies are deeply rooted in the national culture. These guys genuinely feel we'll multinational and they genuinely feel more global and they've actually culturally made a merger work which historically the consciousness quite difficult to do right. We saw DaimlerChrysler the fall apart we saw Ford Not Really Gel with any of the premium brands. It owned Volvo Janke Arrest Martin etc and at the same time you've got. PSA which also is culturally in quite an international fit because it has a British Brandon Vauxhall at has a German Brandon Opel and again it's made an automotive merger work in recent history and so one of the biggest barriers to auto mergers is cultural and it always is and it's the factions between different rival governments wanting a place at the table and to the fact that you've got to companies that are sort little mood globally cultural and have recently made big complex multi-country images work does bode quite well for these. Two companies being able to culturally fit together. which is a huge hurdle and obviously not a financial one but a key one that really needs to be overcome for any automotive motor to work now to think that assuming this goes through? Do you think there will be cost-cutting. This time we've spoken about how Mr Tavarez avoided this in the past but do we think an ax will fall this time around. They've talked about Oh savings of three point seven billion euros which they go to try and realize eighty percent of those within the first couple of years of the deal going through now. They haven't broken out exactly where that comes from. They've said it's not going to be plant closures if you look at. PSA during open takeover they managed to save a lot of money by shortening labor hours thousand doing various things around the way they utilize space in the factory floor but a big chunk of savings in a big rationale for the deal in the whole is as we said at the start to avoid duplicating investment it costs so it'll be avoid. Investment cost into electrification and avoided investment costs not just intellectuals -cation autonomy but also inter individual platforms so you built a car on. They'll merge those together they'll get huge potential savings and of purchasing components together all kinds of classic industrial merger synergies. I mean David. Is that message sticking in France. I don't think this merger would have been given the green light or been greeted with such political approval as it has been so far if it hadn't been for guarantees. He's about jobs and I think that's true in Italy as well. I don't think they're going to be closing plants. I just don't think it's politically tenable as Peter says for. They're going to be. Finding the savings is in our D adoption. Those kind of things. So if you're a betting man do you think the magic. We'll go ahead and if it is who then are the biggest rivals to the merged group. Rule the move music safaris overwhelmingly positive. The fact the French government seemed to be behaving better than they did last time older. That's not a terribly high bar bodes well for the whole thing going through now. What we're expecting expecting is it? Within the next sort of two three four weeks we'll get a memorandum of understanding between the two companies that will set out potentially more details about synergies potentially more details about management structure and various other things. Maybe even headquarters details then. Obviously the whole thing has to go to show. Does it both companies who have to approve them is quite difficult to to see them derailing that and then obviously it has to go through various other regulatory huddles. They also have to deal with antitrust issues so this will be the largest carmaker in Europe. It could be bigger than Volkswagen that market share in some countries such as constantly will be very high so they may have issues with that but no one seriously thinks that's going to derail l. the deal so assuming everything goes smoothly you could see it close within say nine months potentially two year. There's always a bit of leeway with these things either side and then obviously they will be the fourth largest in the world behind reminisce. And if you're treating those companies is one that's the whole other but also Volkswagen Toyota and on readiness and those three make ten million cars a year. These guys will make eight and a half million calls year that puts them slightly ahead of General Motors. You make about eight but they will be easily within the global top five for well. This is going to keep busy for the next year or so. Thanks Peter an thanks David thank you wolf listening.
