british forces. the most significant decision of the empire in 1917 was the transfer of general edmund allenby from the western front to egypt and command of the expeditionary force. the war in the middle east, especially for the british, was all about protecting routes to india and, if possible, finding a soft underbelly for the fighting on the western front. for the ottomans, the emphasis was on protecting constantinople and the dynasty. the british conducted operations directed from all three of the capitals mentioned earlier. the operations at mesopotamia were controlled from delhi. the operations in gallipoli were controlled from london in part. levant operations in were controlled from -- initially, as i mentioned, this attack was made in gallipoli, but once gallipoli fell, it was decided to move to the levant among the mediterranean coast. -- along the mediterranean coast. initially, these attacks were eventually stopped at the edge of the sinai desert, and this is where we will begin our oper

it was the british empire. because the british empire and british imperial india of that day included the modern-day countries of pakistan and bangladesh and india. and for those for future quiz show benefit, the largest muslim country by population in the world is indonesia, and depending on which source you go to, the second or the third is either india or pakistan. and bangladesh is very high as well in terms of the muslim population. so, the british -- everything they did with respect to the ottoman empire and the caliph was done with an eye toward to their own muslim population, because what they did not want to do was anger the muslim population such that they would have internal revolts. now, this will lead to some interesting decisions later, as we will discuss. ok, so, i want to highlight a couple of issues leading up to world war i. in 1882, the ottoman empire established a formal relationship with the german impart to provide advisors to the ottoman army. part of the relationship with germany was eco

by 1774, british control over il. colony was virtually n real authority was not in the hands of the king's appointees, but rather the rebellious merchants in the low country who had formed their own governing bodies. at first, the settlers on the frontier carried very little -- cared very little about what others were worried about, the sugar act, tea act, which had little direct effect on them. then it became clear that the british were ready to provoke indian attacks, the most feared threat to order and liberty to help crush the rebellion. some lawless white men fought with the indians. it is true that some colonists saw the high-handed whig officials in charleston as the real threats to order. for many others who had been sitting on the fence, the very idea that the king's ministers would unleash the indians on them and their families made them spring into action, rally the militia, gather ammunition, and prepare to fight. i don't have time to talk about the stories about the two sieges campaign, or, the pickens' m

there are you're certainly right and out there are british politicians tortie british politicians who have all the empty and big time like on patterson and elders but i'm talking about the way i'm going to talk i'm talking about the people who are causing problems and what they are they're being very very unhelpful in trying to say that the good friday agreement is not meaningful anymore that it is not useful at that it is creating difficulties and that if it wasn't there we'd have an easier back but it's not just the tory paul it's you know what is the foremost the need it's what you know it's mainly dettori politicians and it is then responded to i think you have to understand who started the. tory relations politicians on david trimble because the unit is the one thing that would provoke loyalist paramilitary is the present irish government saying silly things about the border and the constitution and david terms a good friend of mine but who. izzy he's a member of the tory party he left the altar unionist party and joined the tory party so i'm afraid you've made my case does that

immediately goes to try to push the british out. however, on that night attack, it's a very confusing time. both it's dark and a lot of the americans don't know each other as well as perhaps the british soldiers do. this is also kind of one of the points when both the cavalry and the choctaw american indians who were fighting out here played a massively significant part. they used the cover of darkness and their ability to move through kind of the landscape here to really cause some confusion with the british. from the americans, they were not able to push the british out. in fact, jackson ended up forced to fully retreat up the river. but what it does do is it makes the british rethink about attacking very quickly. and so kind of the casualties that were incurred on that day made the british wait for more troops to arrive which gave jackson time to prepare defenses for the city. so jackson stayed in a few different places during the battle of new orleans. prior to his knowledge of where the british had landed, he actually stayed ri

i'm very proud to be a british box on the i'm proud to be british and i'm proud to be fox on the i think that vantage is that you can take the best of both cultures and in that way you add the most value to commute to society in this country i do feel that we would love the government to support more we always need more support to be able to expand because a well established in london we know trying to expand our programmes are there much needed in bradford leeds glasgow manchester and birmingham and the conduit with all the support of the government set a shot thank you very much indeed thank you god i mean thank you night over to alex a few years back i was in a meeting in the leadership compound in beijing with the then chinese formalised it was an important meeting not least of which because the u.k. was in the doctors and the hadn't been any zone in the harley meeting with any minister of any description from the u.k. for some considerable time. halfway through the meeting the the foreign minister. wished but i thought he should accept the offer of an on a degree from these. the lon

the british were struggling with their own internal tensions in the british chief of staff chafed as churchill micromanage them with action this day with memorandum and churchill himself had his own doubts whether the generals could deliver victories and the american joint chiefs of staff struggled to understand the political pressures that affected roosevelt their commander-in-chief but above all the american chief of staff despaired that roosevelt resolved to stand firm for the us position could willed under what they called churchill's sunlamps and in their view fdr already had wilted several times as the combined chiefs of staff's, the american and british leadership, they had already met twice in 1943 with the participation of fdr and churchill. first in casablanca in january and then in washington in may but the months were taking by and they still had not come up with written agreements on strategy that could hold or oral commitments that would be implement it. in terms of the atomic side the british had made important early contributions to atomic research but they had been s

media evidently with information from the british authorities that they were virtually gone or suddenly their live well and incommunicado nobody knows where they are so instead of just twenty more fingers or releasing partial information with the implication that these two people were poisoned with some kind of residue from the first attack how about we get a real explanation of what happened in that first attack starting with the people involved well that's true we do have very little information now the u.k. home secretary says that the area where this happened is quote beautiful part of the country to visit and the risk to the public remains a very low well isn't that contradict it at that but the death of the female victim . evidently as i say if the of the two scruples were poisoned with some agent which the british authorities say is not the truck which is a highly deadly nerve agent why why did they recover but these people who were exposed weeks after the fact didn't it was simply a residue left over after presumably the area had been scrubbed of course this is a very nice area

utzon himself suggested a british—based international firm. appointed in 1958, so i suppose that was 11 years that really dominated my life. the first thing they did when they were asked to collaborate, they took these three shapes and developed a series of mathematical models, which as near as possible matched utzon‘s competition design. none of these shapes appeared buildable. the roof itself — known as stage 2 — went through so many design changes, there were rumours gleefully spread about that it could never be built. personally, i wasn't sure whether to admit to working on it at the time. if you got into a taxi, you got an earful of all the money that was being wasted. they fed hundreds of thousands of forumulas into computers, but still, the stubborn roof would not stand up. then suddenly, in september 1961, utzon had an idea. he saw that if he started with sphere, he could take all the shapes he needed for its regular surface. he came back a week later and said, i've solved it. and he made the scheme out of a sphere. but in so doi

it was a massive display of british imperial money. the project was conceived by henry cove and had animus success. it received 6 million visitors. it led to the establishment of various museums, of course including the victorian museum. although the great exhibition was not the first large-scale straight or exposition -- which continue in reduced format today. such is the international expo and of the world trade fairs. in the 19th century they encouraged the immediate development of products across borders, this was of course incredibly important before the electronic age and the philadelphia exposition in this -- was credible in this country. prince albert as a prime mover behind the great exhibition encouraged british manufacturers for their displays. including the birmingham metalworking firm. which in 1840 was the first -- the application of a thin layer of silver applied to base metal. before this very public and international display of ernest industry. a young welsh architect had traveled around the mediterranean. this is some

as the ordinary british worker but the last time that productivity was so bad in the united kingdom was seven hundred ninety four and when i looked up the history of seven hundred ninety four great britain it does say that not only did they rebuilt theatre royal laid open but british troops captured a march of seven hundred ninety four martin eek from the french in april they signed a treaty of alliance with prussia and netherlands against france and in june they captured port au prince in haiti from the french so they were kind of at war with the french back in seven hundred ninety four but who's getting the last laugh right the french unions the french because the french are out there in the streets fighting for wages so their productivity is higher as expressed as a fraction of a g.d.p. look i mean in the britain in the united kingdom to solve this problem they want to include prostitution and drug dealing in the calculations of the government to come up with a g.d.p. number that's desperate they are to avoid just giving workers livable wages i think it's just the motto by which your

we will hear from the president and the british prime minister shortly. they were both asked about this bombshell article that was published overnight, neither wanted to discuss it. the president was conspicuously quiet about that and just so our american audience understands, the positions the president took overnight on brexit suggesting it should be a heart brexit not a soft brexit and suggesting the former foreign secretary boris johnson would make a great prime minist minister, these are what the prime minister didn't want to hear. >> correct. what president trump has got is a script that is straight from frame's domestic political opponents. the pressure she's got from people on the right of the conservative party who feel she isn't delivering the strong brexit deal that people were promised in the referendum. of course there's a whole other debate about the definition of the brexit referendum and we can talk about how you define what the public wanted in that referendum and the problem is fundamentally the deal the public want is undeliverable whic
