Good evening my fellow Americans as you know the most important goal that all of us share tonight is Economic recovery to see our factories reopening their gates to see the unemployed return to their jobs and every American enjoy the fruits of prosperity To get our economy moving again It's imperative that we enact a federal budget that will bring down deficits and bring down interest rates. I Had hoped that when I addressed you tonight It would be to give you the details of a bipartisan agreement on a budget and revenue plan for 1983 As you know yesterday marked the end of a long series of discussions to help reach such an agreement They ended despite our best efforts to achieve a fair compromise But before I discuss these talks and our plans for the future Let me give the background that led up to them In our budget proposal we had continued the process we started last year of trying to get control of runaway government spending Deficits over the last few decades have been literally built into the federal structure The rate of increase in spending was 17 percent when we took office There's no way that government can pay for increases at that rate Without gigantic tax increases each year or borrowing and adding to the national debt Now this latter course has been followed for so many years that we now have a trillion dollar debt To give you some idea of how much a trillion is if we started paying off the debt at a billion dollars a year It would take a thousand years to wipe it out now if I may Let me take you back a little in 1977 when the previous administration took office the inflation was 4.8 percent It rose steadily and in 1979 and 80 we had two years of back-to-back double-digit inflation Unemployment started to increase and by 1980 we were in a recession with nearly 8 million unemployed inflation at 12.4 percent and Interest rates at 21 and a half percent as Those interest rates continued home construction and automobiles were hard hit because few could afford to take out a mortgage or buy a car on time Unemployment continued to increase The 1981 budget was already in place when our administration began and while we managed to affect several billions of dollar savings during the balance of the fiscal year There was nothing we could do but set our sights on the 1982 budget, which would be our first We had to reduce the build-in rate of increase at the same time We had to reduce the share of the people's earnings the government was taking in taxes Now this may sound strange in view of the increased spending and it was contrary to the philosophy of the democratic leadership But high taxes destroying incentive had contributed to reduced productivity and a reduction in savings Which left us without the capital we needed for industrial expansion? And because government always finds a need for whatever money it gets the cost of government continued to go up Between 1976 and 1981 federal tax revenues increased by 300 billion dollars Deficits ran 318 billion There was no way we could get the rate of spending down to where it should be in one year But our economic recovery program did manage to reduce the rate of increase in spending to nearly half of what it had been We also proposed a three-year program of tax rate reduction for individuals and for business You helped us get both the reductions in spending and the tax reductions by letting your elected representatives know you wanted them During the debate on our economic program We stated many times that there would have to be a second installment of budget reductions in 1983 That built-in automatic spending increase. I spoke of would otherwise give us a budget of 827 billion in 83 918 billion in 1984 and more than a trillion in 1985 What is our situation how now and how well have we done with our economic recovery program? Well, we're still in a recession and Unemployment has continued to go up particularly in those areas affected by the troubles of the automobile and construction industries Farmers too are hurt by the high interest rates They borrow to plant and pay back at harvest, but that doesn't work when interest rates remain at too high a level It is true. However, that those rates are down about a fifth from that high of 21 and a half percent But they must come down some more and they have every reason to because that 12.4 percent inflation rate we inherited has been running at only 3.2 percent for the last six months and Last month for the first time in 17 years. It dropped below zero prices actually went down Now with all of this in mind We introduced a budget for 1983 of 758 billion dollars lower than the built-in spending by a considerable amount Still it represented an increase over the 82 budget of 300 and to her pardon me 32 a billion dollars Nevertheless, there were outraged screams of protest and you were led to believe that we were actually proposing less spending Than the present level There's been an insistent drumbeat aided by special interest groups charging that our budget Would deprive the needy the handicapped and the elderly of the necessities of life I'm sure many of these people were sincere well-intentioned But also Misinformed our original budget proposal would have funded 95 million meals a day for the needy Provided medical care for 47 million Americans subsidized housing for about 10 million people in In addition, there would be 7 million loans and grants for college students of which there are 11 million full-time Social security, which was a hundred and twenty-two billion in 1980 will be a hundred and eighty eight billion in 1983 But the drumbeat was too loud Many in Congress criticized that budget and demanded that we send up a new one Well, we worked many months with the cabinet on the one we submitted and believed it could fulfill Governments responsibility though those who through no fault of their own had to depend on their fellow citizens for help Besides I felt that some workable alternative to ours should have been suggested by our critics so we could begin Arriving at a consensus As the talk grew of stalemate I Asked my chief of staff Jim Baker to conduct the congressional leadership of both houses and see if some means couldn't be agreed upon in which The matter could be discussed with the idea of finding an area of agreement a Bipartisan arrangement was made whereby the Senate had five representatives the House of Representatives had seven and the administration had five This group which began to be called the gang of 17 held its first meeting on April 1st And it's 13th and last the day before yesterday April 27th The rule they followed was that nothing was binding on Speaker O'Neill Senate Majority Leader Howard Baker or myself They would simply see if they could find enough agreement that actual negotiations seemed possible and practical I In turn had told our representatives the areas. I felt were non-negotiable They were that any changes in defense spending must not interfere with or delay our rebuilding of national security and The spending must be significantly reduced and that our tax reductions adopted last year must be preserved. I Received regular progress reports and was greatly encouraged The gang of 17 worked long hard hours and deliberated in good faith What they were doing couldn't really be called Negotiation that would come later Speaker O'Neill referred to it once as dialogue Well, the projected deficits for the next three years continued to increase as the lower inflation rate reduced estimated revenues Continued unemployment which cost government about 25 billion dollars for every added one percentage point took its toll And the persistent high interest rates added to the cost of government borrowing While I don't believe in the accuracy of long-range projections. We're required to acknowledge them in our budgeting They stand at 182 billion dollars for 1983 216 billion in 84 and 233 billion in 1985 if we do nothing about reducing spending Not only must those deficits be reduced They must show a decline over the next three years not an increase our goal must be a balanced budget and Our budget would have set us on that road, but apparently there was no meeting of the minds There's no question, but that a difference in philosophy exists While the Democratic leadership Blumented about the deficit facing us committees in the House of Representatives controlled by them We're recommending increases above and beyond our proposed budget of more than 50 billion dollars in higher spending Apparently the philosophical difference between us is that they want more and more spending and more and more taxes I believe we should have less spending less taxes and more prosperity There hasn't been too much opportunity in the last 40 years to see what our philosophy can do But we know what theirs can do the longest sustained inflation in history The highest interest rates in a hundred years eight recessions since World War two and a trillion dollar debt Day before yesterday Jim Baker told me the group had decided they could come no closer to agreement than they were and There would be no more meetings So I called speaker O'Neill and suggested we meet to take up where the gang of 17 had left off That meeting took place for more than three hours yesterday The worksheets of the committee showed that on our side our Non-defense spending cuts had been reduced to about 60 percent of what we had originally proposed There were some areas such as estimated savings from improved management practices, which had been accepted On the Democratic side they'd expressed a willingness to accept some cuts Which they thought were a concession on their part in as much as they hadn't wanted any budget reductions except in defense on revenues We had originally proposed about 13 billion dollars for next year most of which could be obtained through changes in tax regulations Some regulations have been regulated or interpreted in such a way as to provide tax advantages, which were never intended The group was discussing a figure of 25 billion Which meant actually increasing some taxes or passing new ones now that figure would not have required Eliminating or reducing the tax cuts in our economic recovery program Still the 25 billion dollar figure was almost double our original proposal In yesterday afternoon's meeting on Capitol Hill speaker O'Neill senator Howard Baker myself and five of the gang of 17 participated as I say the figures on which the group had found some agreement were far from those we'd proposed in February But I decided against trying to start the negotiations on the basis of that original budget The most essential thing is to send a message to the money market that we Democrats and Republicans alike Can agree on reducing the deficit and continuing to hold down inflation Actually, the gang of 17 had come very close in their deliberations and I was encouraged to believe that we could arrive at a settlement our original cuts totaled 101 billion dollars They I can't make a big enough mark to show you but they were rejected believe me The our own representatives from the Congress proposed compromising at 60 billion dollars their counterparts from the Democratic side of the aisle proposed 35 In our meeting yesterday, which went on for more than three hours our compromise of 60 billion dollars was rejected Now my pen is working and then I swallowed hard and Volunteered to split the difference between our 60 and their 35 and settle for 48 and That Was rejected The meeting was over Now on this chart the red line is where we go In the next three years with regard to deficits if there is no compromise It'll reach a deficit of 233 billion dollars in 1985 alone and as you can see the line is still going up and So will interest rates The blue line is where we go if we settle on a reasonable compromise steadily down to a deficit by 1985 of only 44 billion dollars and you can see that a balanced budget is not far distant and This blue line will I'm convinced start interest rates down from the moment. There is agreement on the compromise It is essential That we have a prompt resolution of this budget debate It is of course up to the Congress to act now But I'll do everything I can to help in getting a prompt settlement If American workers can show the statesmanship they've shown in redrawing their contracts to restrain their own wages To help in this time of recession Surely we in Washington can show some statesmanship to I'm convinced. We're in the trough as it's called of this recession and that we'll begin to see recovery in the second half of the year There will be political pressure from some to turn on the printing presses and flood us with paper money That's been done before and the answer is always the same a Flush feeling for about five minutes then more inflation leading toward a plunge into an even worse recession There is another road that leads to permanent recovery It begins with a responsible budget now In the coming days, I will do everything I can to help the Congress achieve this vital goal and You can help too by letting your representatives know that you think this is no time for politics as usual That you too Want an end to runaway taxes spending government debt and high interest rates Tomorrow I will meet with Republican members of the gang of 17 to forge the beginnings of an acceptable budget initiative on Monday, I will meet with the full Republican leadership and with members of the Senate and House budget committees I will also consult with responsible members of the Democratic Party in the Congress to make this a truly bipartisan effort in the national interest But our efforts must not stop there Once we've achieved a balanced budget and we will Want to ensure that we keep it for many long years After I've left office and there's only one way to do that So tonight I am asking the Congress to pass as soon as possible a Constitutional amendment to require balanced federal budgets This amendment will of course have to be ratified by three-fourths of the states But I'm confident that the grassroots support for a balanced budget amendment is out there and will carry the day against the special interests most Americans understand the need for a balanced budget and Most Americans have seen how difficult it is for the Congress to withstand the pressures for more spending This amendment will force government to stay within the limit of its revenues Government will have to do what each of us does with our own family budgets Spend no more than we can afford Only a constitutional amendment will do the job We've tried the carrot and it failed With the stick of a balanced budget amendment we can stop government squandering overtaxing ways and save our economy Time and again the American people you have worked wonders that have astounded the world We've done it in war and peace in good times and bad Because we're a people who care and who know how to pull together Family by family community by community coast to coast to change things for the better The success story of America is neighbor helping neighbor So tonight I asked for your help Your voice at this turning point So often in history great causes have been one or lost at the last moment Because one side of the other lack that last reserve of character and stamina of faith and fortitude To see the way through to success Make your voice heard Let your representatives know that you support the kind of fair effective approach I have outlined for you tonight Let them know you stand behind our recovery program You did it once You can do it again Thank you and God bless you


Good evening. Good evening, everyone. I said good evening. Okay, that's better. Let me first be on your behalf, the South Africans and nearly half the government welcome such a route to South Africa. But the pity is only staying here for very few hours, but nonetheless welcome. Thank you. I've seen the people, next time you must show me the lines. We can show you more than the line. It's a privilege to firstly be sitting next to an eminent and learned person such a South Kuru. So thank you to the Isha Foundation for their very kind invitation to be here this evening. Secondly, June South Kuru is a very momentous month for South Africa. Tomorrow is the 16th of June. And 40 years ago, very brave young school children, and today a very well-known township called Soweto, stood up for justice, stood up for fairness, and stood up to their right to have education in the language of their choice. It's an event which led to loss of young lives, but it's also an event that was a pivotal moment in our history. Because young people then left South Africa to join political movements like the ANC, which was banned at the time outside the country. Young activists ended up in Robben Island, a famous prison, which I'm sure you've heard of, because the Mandela and others were in prison for many years, and gave life to the struggle for democracy that Mr. Sukhba was talking about earlier on as well. The 26th of June is also an interesting day for South Africans. That's the 61st anniversary if I've got it right, with many people. You're the finance minister. I lose it with the calculation. 61st anniversary of the formulation of the freedom chapter. The first lines of which say South Africa belongs to all who live in black and white. And set out, you'll find it very interesting, the kind of vision of the people in South Africa that you have for the world. A world of well-being, a world of justice, a world without poverty, and a world where economic and political systems serve the vast majority of people rather than a narrow queue. The last point I want to make by way of introduction is that we sit in an interesting Thumbnails called Emperor's Palace. Now, I don't know what your relationship with Latinos, but there's one month too far away. I had to walk through it. You had to walk. But Emperor's Palace around the early 90s, or part of it, was called the World Trade Center. And this is where what was referred to earlier on as Podesa took place, which is the negotiations for today's South Africa, what we then called the future South Africa. And in the period of December 1991 to approximately December 1993, we argued with the breakers, we negotiated, we broke down negotiations, we rebuilt negotiations. And at the end of the 1993 period, we had negotiated an interim constitution, which served as the basis for our first democratic elections on the 27th of April 1994. So the casino you can forget about, the history is quite important that we created collectively for South Africa in this period. So perhaps the first issue that one could ask about is what is the relationship which you start to build between inner well-being and outer well-being? Does inner well-being necessarily convert itself to the kind of social justice that you envision for billions of people across the world? And what kind of inner re-engineering is required to make all of these people activists by tomorrow morning? I'm very much conversant with the struggles and the pains and very profound sense of suffering that a large segment of the population of this part of the world has seen in recent history. The sacrifices, the sufferings, the wounds, the deaths, the loss that people have suffered, believing that there will be a better tomorrow. It is those people who do not worry about today's comfort but tomorrow's well-being for everybody. What hardships they've been through, unspeakable things have happened, man, woman, children. But it's important that we honor their sacrifices, their sufferings. At the same time, without resentment we look forward to creating what they aspired for because when pain is inflicted upon human beings, people think it's natural to become resentful about that. But resentment, anger, frustrations, these are all poisons that we drink and we expect somebody else to die. Life doesn't work like that. If we drink poison, we die as Praveen has already articulated. This has been... There are many freedom moments that we have seen in the twentieth century, many nations. But the freedom struggle of the South African people and the freedom struggle of India have been very unique happenings in the history of humanity. And you must take pride in many ways, India's freedom struggle took birth in South Africa. You must take pride in that. Maybe for the wrong reasons. But this is what we need to understand. What the world throws at us is not always in our hands unfortunately. But whatever it throws at us, what we make out of it is one hundred percent ours. If we do not empower ourselves to be able to do this, then we will be always seeking for an ideal situation. And ideal situations have never existed in any society ever, believe me. It is just that people who had vision, people who had strength, people who had necessary commitment, those people turned every situation into well-being for the larger well-being of the people. But there never have been ideal situations for any society, any nation at any time. Some have faced harsher situations than others of course. But still, there is no such thing as ideal situation because in every society, there is a whole lot of people who are whining eternally about what is not okay about it. We have left the South Africa. This is not just about South Africa. As a generation of people on this planet, we are the loudest whiners ever because we got social media. Every whine is heard around the world. So, bringing in a well-being, how is it important? When external situations are harsh, then people will always ask this question because they will become skeptical, me being peaceful, me being well, how will it translate? We must understand this. Everything that we create is just a manifestation of who we are. If we do not strive to transform who we are, what we create will always be that that we will not want. We may go with certain goals of wanting something, but it will not bring what we want because we have not made ourselves what we want, first of all.  How do I manage a nation? How do I manage a world?  So, inner well-being is not an esoteric discipline for somebody who's given up everything and sits in a Himalayan cave.  We have many caves in South Africa. No, no, but it's only in Himalayan cave it happens. You need a mountain on top of your head. That we don't have. But human hearts and human minds have still remained like dark caves. It is time to bring light to those caves. If the cave of your heart, the cave of your mind is lit. By you being a shining being, then the world will for sure shine because we cannot produce a society very different from who we are. What we are is what our society will be. To be able to make inner well-being not an exclusive right of a few people, as external well-being, economic well-being sometime ago was the exclusive right of a few people for which many great men have fought, many great men have sacrificed, many great men probably were snuffed out before they could reach their greatness. Similarly, it is important today that inner well-being becomes a possibility for every human being. In that context, this step, the International Yoga Day is a very significant step. It is not just for one-day photo op yoga. The idea is to make sure every human being has tools of self-transformation in their hands. Not these tools for transformation should not be in the hands of a guru or an organization or an authority, but it should be in the hands of every human being because this is something that you have to use. For a long time, we have handled human well-being with promises elsewhere. It doesn't matter what's happening here. When you go somewhere up there, wherever that is and because you are in the southern hemisphere, if you look up, obviously you're looking up the wrong way. Nobody knows in this cosmos, in this cosmos does anybody know which side is up, which side is down? Is it somewhere marked the side up? But with these promises we have held people down, with these promises we gave hope to people, with these promises we have postponed people aspiring for what they want now. A time has come where humanity is reaching a point where human intellect is parking like never before. More people can think for themselves than ever before in the very history of humanity. When such a thing is happening, if whatever we offer is not logically correct and scientifically verifiable, it is not going to live, you may be still under the influence or a hangover of the past, but your children are not going to listen to anything that doesn't make sense to them. It doesn't matter from which authority it comes. God spoke, Guru spoke, scripture spoke, Samadhar authority spoke, whoever spoke… I thought I will leave you out of that, sir. I just vaguely said Samadhar authority. Whoever spoke, if it doesn't make sense, the future generations on this planet are not going to take it. This is a good thing because this means the future of the world is such that truth will be the only authority. Authority will never be the truth, which is a great step for humanity. And yoga as a science, as a technology can play a significant role in this. Yoga has no cultural frills attached to it through millennia of transmission. It has acquired cultural frills. The most significant aspect of my work personally has been to take off all the frills so that it comes to you as a pure science and a technology that you can make use of. Why I'm insisting on the word technology is, the nature of technology is such, if you learn to use it, it works. You don't have to believe it, you don't have to trust it, you don't have to pray to it, you don't have to appeal to it. If you know how to use it, it works. So will this be useful to create external well-being? If we do not create human beings, who are of balance, who can be fired up but not imbalanced? You must understand this, most of the time people who are fired up, people who are competent, people who can do things, they're all the time imbalanced. In a state of imbalance, the best of you will not come. There is substantial scientific and medical evidence to show you today that if you are in a pleasant state of experience, your ability to use your body and your brain is greatly enhanced. You know this from your experience anyway. After all, our ability to transform external situations, our ability to succeed in whatever endeavors we take up in our lives is essentially about how well you can harness this body and this mind. And this can be done by a scientific approach to it, rather than hoping that it will happen somehow from some other source.


TLO what's poppin? We are on kick. We are not live, but you can leave a like comment subscribe Turn on your post notification, but let's continue to grow the family from Chicago to the UK And when I say a kick I meant kick.com If we happen to go live and you miss it This is or any highlights and things of that nature will be Don't forget.

I Know y'all like this It's hard to not like this. This is great TV It doesn't like but man. Let's get into it and as when you get into debt Dealing with death Recent reports by leading debt charity show that soul traders are increasingly getting into debt The figures reveal they have some of the highest levels of borrowing in the UK Putting them under serious financial pressure Soul traders as an entrepreneurs Stuart McCracken and Elmore Victor. Yeah entrepreneurs. Okay Stuart McCracken and Elmore Victor. They go this guy Stewart our high court enforcement agents They've been working together for over a year seizing property and collecting debts Today they're in more come Lancashire The way season three has been gone I would not be surprised if Stewart if somebody put the Mica Mica Mica on store today So what's this next case? This isn't Stuart's first encounter with the debtor mr. Laid the owner of more come textiles Me and my previous colleague Ian Arrived at this address and it was very very aggressive from the offset. Oh, right try to push me out the house We called the police On Stuart's previous visit mr. Laid agreed to pay off his debt in monthly installments But he's defaulted and still owes just over a thousand pounds Y'all did all that with that man. He's paid a little what they be thinking. You're not coming back Stewart from the slide Now the team has a high court writ to collect the money Every time that I go back to a job where I've already been to before and I know that they're a tricky customer So to speak that's a bit of the job that I thrive off to try and get this case fixed Stuart said he thrive off negativity As Stuart and Vic approached the address they spot mr. Laid and his family leaving the estate Is that him? Yeah, that's him. The family car is a potential asset Stuart reacts immediately and blocks mr. Laid from leaving It's his walking textiles Shut down you want to go back and we'll have a quick chat about this Yeah For the agents it makes no difference whether his company is trading or not Mr. Laid has already signed a controlled goods agreement giving Stuart and Vic the right to remove his assets If he doesn't pay in full today, you've got control goods agreement So it does mean so that in our power We are able to force entry into the property because at the end of the day this vehicle has been seized But if the car belongs to mr.  We need to quickly go because we need to control the vehicle As Stuart and Vic approach the family home I can feel it. I can feel Stuart want to get a clean Two-piece biscuit two-piece mcnugget they spot a second vehicle parked outside It's another asset. They could seize if mr. Laid can't or won't pay Relax, it's only a thousand dollars both of these cars.  Yeah, mr. Laid also claims the second car isn't his so we need to see some documentation of that Okay, cuz what we're gonna do is okay unless you make some sort of payment Then what we're gonna do is we're gonna force entry into the property This out The business shut down go to the market have a look Anyway, I'm fucking Ellen to see but I can prove it as well and I we're not going down the situation again, sir That happened last time.  Yeah, this document is not for ownership. Oh, so what it says our black and white sir See that this document is not proof of ownership She documentation for that thing What do you mean documentation? That's it. You got a loaner. We see the bill. Oh, I know you'd have documentation for it Well, it's a dog. It's smart. I'm getting smart. It's all Not going anywhere. So the vehicle's not going anywhere.   I took the lawns out for the car, right? I understand that but have you got any documentations for that letterman says for the vehicle? If the car is on a finance agreement the team can't seize it Vic runs a check I had you right mate. Yeah, not bad. Can you do it each guy for me, please? Vivo Victor info November while Stuart looks over the paperwork from the bank Yeah, it's only an application Mr. Lakey he is not getting smart That does not show ownership. What do we what do we he just read the top of the paper? That's all Stuart isn't convinced that there is a loan It's fun. Yeah fun the place. I'll wait here. I'll show them the control goods agreement that you've signed sir Mr. Laid gets the police on the phone Smile all you want sir Do you say the police are coming yeah, okay, we'll wait for them then once I show them the control goods agreement sir They will then grant me access into property. Okay, and we'll also be taking control of this vehicle and that Stand up all you want so it's not gonna change the situation. We've signed a contract. I'm not gonna hold you Stuart standing this ground Stuart is ten toes down. I didn't think he was gonna be about this life right now. So goods agreement You have to tell me to show you it. I'll show you it now I'll show you it now. I'll show you it now. So if that's your signature there, sir So see there 500 percent for eight months starting 68th was when I last was inside your property. So that's a bit nearly no It's not there's still 1068 pounds left. That's why we're here today. If you can't afford the 500 that's fine Vic confirms Stuart's suspicions about the loan at this moment this vehicle is for your finance So if that loan was connected to it, it would have shown that it's on finance So the vehicle will be removed So you need to find some sort of way of raising some funds try and get this clear mr. Laid still seems reluctant to pay And decides to take drastic action Is there no way so you can make a payment He and his partner each take a young child and lock themselves in the cars If that's a tactic that the defendants want to use then so be it I can't believe that anybody would get their own family involved to try and avoid paying Outstanding high court risk. I mean at the end of the day when the police get here. We we're going to your house, buddy Mr. Leahy, we've been here before so we're not gonna play this game Tired of talking I find absolutely absurd With a baby in one car and a toddler in the other Stuart and Vic are unable to seize the family vehicles We have to control the goods. That's as simple as that What started as a simple debt recovery case has escalated into a dramatic standoff 30 minutes into the standoff the police arrive on the scene Hi there, sir. Here we go. That's myself. That's your idea, is it? Stuart briefs the officer with the terms of the writ And that's the agreement there 500 pounds for eight months starting 6 to the 8 14 You want to try and sort some some agreement out with the gentleman? Okay. I'll just speak to him turn what the situation is Yeah, no problem. It's all shortly he looked like a A grocery bagger at azda He is not fun to listen to him. You had a car for backup after the police arrive Mr. Laid emerges from his car with his accountant on the phone Hello there. I believe I'm talking to the accountant regards to more than textiles Mr. Laid now claims that it's his closed down limited company who's liable for the debt and not him Well, the writ itself is in the name of more than textiles now more than textiles limited So it's a soul trader. Yes. It's not limited. I'm afraid. I just want to thank you for your time All right, I'll pass you back now Mr. Laid's tactic hasn't worked The fact is against him personally means that we are liable to either Get locksmith remove into the house Or remove the two vehicles after an hour on site. Mr. Laid makes Stuart an unusual offer Sorry Not not interested in the wallpaper. So it needs to be it needs to be a payment I thought you said you weren't working sir. So what are you doing? What are you doing with the wallpaper then? The wallpaper is left over stock from his closed down business and worth almost 4,000 pounds So how have you paid for that? So we wouldn't be taking control of them. She hadn't paid for them. So you don't belong to you Stuart's patience is running out You need to offer something.  I'll wait in the van see see what you can do and then I'll speak to you off And I'll do my best to try and help you out We won't work with you, Mr. Laid The teams start to make progress If I give you 100 quid a day and 50 quid a month, that's all I can do Because I'm uh, I'm off empty moment sick Can't you do 100 pounds a month? It's gonna be I do not gonna because because it's 1,000 pounds 68, right? She's gonna give me 5,000. I'll give you 1,500 quid a day Yeah, I'll go after 50 quid to 75 quid a month. Let me find the office and let's see what they say. All right If the offer is not accepted the team may they might need like 250 today. I ain't even gonna lie We need like a quarter of it. You hear me?

You still don't business You you you the seventh letter of the alphabet Gives me the drive passion adrenaline of the job that I enjoy No, no, it's a pump Oh According to a new survey repossession rates hit record levels last year with 115 evictions taking place every day A leading housing charity now reports that evictions by private landlords are the most common cause of homelessness Did they just say eviction by landlord is the most common cause of homelessness? That don't sound right What was the reason for eviction? That is the most common loss of job Wages not being able to keep up with the cost of living You know i'm saying don't blame the landlord. They're just running a business High court enforcement agents pull bow hill steve pinner and his son ben are in london to carry out an eviction The job that we're now going to Is a ground floor flat in south croydon And the tenant is thought to be an elderly man The landlord wants to convert the property into one bedroom. See don't send me to these because I'm be calling the office like hey listen I'll pay it. You know man like don't do this In flats and increase his return I would like to say that I will landlord a business man sympathetic Only still have an hour to get there Notice of the eviction has already been sent to the tenant by the county court But the landlord has upgraded it to the high court to speed up the eviction So the enforcement agents have come without warning No one seems to be at home The teams start to break the lock Something the eviction notice allows them to do Oh dear Stinks has obviously got a cat Because there's tins of tuner everywhere Yeah, kitty kitty kitty House isn't empty Good morning, sir. We're from high courts. We have a repossession order for the old property. Can we have a chat?  What do you mean you're scaring my cat?  Close that door mate. Let's do this properly. Shall we? No, you stay there my friend. Just stay there. All right the council told me wait till you get bailiff's letter That should take two is you give you a date when you've got to be gone by which is two weeks And you're trying to get in I do not receive anything yet another happy chap The tenant simon knew the landlord wanted him out But had no idea it would happen today The landlord has chosen To transfer the proceedings to the high court and there is no provision within the system to give you notice that we come in I was waiting for a bailiff's letter, which is no, no, okay. I did. I heard that and I do understand it Right, but it's now been transferred to the high court, which means that you have to leave today Simon has one hour to gather his essentials and leave But oh, I can't live today. I'm going up to Sheffield and 20 past sit 20 past six weeks past one my friend buried my arm not anymore. Oh I just heard the last part to bury his aunt in Sheffield In 20 past sit 20 past six weeks past one my friend buried my arm tomorrow. I'm going to be gone for three days Could you just look and see I'm packed. Yes Yeah, have a look then please sir. No, no, well, that's okay. I can accept that Not only was his black suit hanging up in a bag ready to travel But he had his return tickets to the north of england where the funeral was going to be I'll believe this the little job I'm still here Oh, she would have done what? Who would have broken changed a lot I swear this when you having a bad week or something it only be getting worse It don't never like flip and go the opposite way like it only gets worse Some left a note for you to contact us Despite the funeral the eviction must take place today The proceeds that we follow is you need to take whatever belonging you need to last you a few days today But you're going anyway, weren't you? Yeah, right, but there's no reason you just got to make other arrangements for your cats at all That's the drill gun Steve gets ready to change the locks while paul starts a routine inventory of the house Just a bad way to live now. I'm disgusted to show you this but you may as well see it If this mold is that what it Or if it's clean it I was waiting for the council to see all the damp everywhere Dump there and there's the piece to resist us And I can't touch it because it makes me poor thing. This has been going on for six years What is that above the toilet? What was there? Shit on place. Yeah disgusted A lot of the properties that we go to bear in mind They're probably lower-end properties anyway. The benefits the tenants are on benefits Their standard of living is never going to be high But I do find In at least half the cases that's cap. I don't care if I was on benefits living off the country living off the state No, I'm I clean Not going for that. No way Their living conditions are absolutely appalling A complicated situation is beginning to unravel I've got CRPD as well What's that? Blind disease that's why The council should be re-housing. All right. Did you catch him? Huh? Is he catching? No, I don't really know. It's all right Do you mind me asking? I think you'd be more worried about catching something off him With his illness and the poor living conditions Simon has been asking the council to re-house him for the last six years The council have told him come look. Come look how I'm living. It's affecting my health Nobody said nobody cares my friend. Nobody cares The council's in my exp...  The council bogus for that. They should have re-housed him. He got lung disease He living in a mold infested mold infested home. They bogus Experiences do nothing to help single men of working age Unless they've got a physical A social or mental Issue there's no obligation to house them and they don't... That is true. He is a male It hit different when you were male The clock is ticking Simon calls the housing office to tell them he's now homeless Do you know what I'm trying to get council? Now these are even worse than buddy So this is Yeah, good morning. I've got the bailiffs here This is a shock to me as it's a shock to you The question is are they going to rehouse you or not? You haven't called me. I've been calling you Hello, yes Yeah, it's Paul Bowill my high court enforcement agent The landlord will make arrangements to come back and get his property out But he does need to leave now. So I mean Is there any accommodation arrangements that you've made for him? Despite being evicted Simon is still not a housing priority My conversation with the lady in the council office It isn't guaranteed that they're going to rehouse you if you remember nothing else about what I've said Other than please be aware that it might all go wrong. Yeah, right With nowhere to go Simon now faces being out on the streets I've got no family down here. I'm telling you my family's in Sheffield Jesus passed away now I've got a grandmother out in Dominica And that's it It's just me As it has been for the last eight years in here The eviction is almost complete But Paul is concerned about Simon's welfare. Is the council not going to rehouse you? What if they're not? I we need to know if there are any options on this And we shouldn't really, there should be Why not? We don't want to do it It's very rare that we alter the course of the eviction And we will always take but we will always take into account Absolutely genuine circumstances Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. What's happening? Moved by Simon's situation and his aunt's funeral Paul wants to see if there's a chance the landlord might give him some extra time Hello, it's Paul Bowhill I'm telling you because it is the possibility He got lung cancer and he just lit up a cigarette like Lung disease and just lit up a cigarette. Like what are we doing? In that moment, I would have known I mean, I don't believe you know Mo See if you just say no, that's the answer Well, it's your choice that as you know, in better than I do Yeah, we can take possession now. Yeah All right. Okay. That's fine. No problem. Thank you very much. Bye Due to the exceptional circumstances the landlord agrees to give Simon one more week Okay, we'll be back on Wednesday So when we come back on Wednesday next week, there can be no argument You've been given a period of grace to get your property out Simon's been given a second chance But in seven days time the team will be back If he's still in the flat Paul won't be so understanding I don't want you and me to fall out. No, no, no, but if we have to we will you just do the right thing I'll do the right thing by you. Right You take care, sir. Thank you very much. He looks sick A new survey has revealed that the recent policy of paying housing benefit directly to tenants has led to increasing cases of renter rears As a result many landlords are no longer accepting people on benefits Hammersmith London Paul Bohill and Steve Pinner are on the road again This time to a victor tenant who owes thousands of pounds in unpaid rent This is slightly unusual this morning. Although we're not collecting it.

Will you open the door please or otherwise you'll break it down There is no stopping this happening today Properties now repossessed So we've got an hour please to get your belongings together and then you'll have to make an arrangement with the landlord to come and pick the rest out There's about 11,000 pounds in outstanding rent. That's due 11,000 pounds Like at some point the landlord Was like, okay next month next month next month you fooled me once same on You fooled me twice same on me like it's like however to say and go like you were getting finessed you got finessed a lot of 11 bands It's tough And they said I have an hour to get my things out The tenant Adana calls her mother I've got an hour Today's events have come as a shock It's not fair that you wrote the landlady 11,000 pounds either. You've had plenty of warning of this. This has been going on Have you paid the rent? There's 11,000 pounds on this warrant Is that a lie? No, I'm not lying. I'm not saying that's a lie Sorry, can I stop you there? Can I stop you there? It's now 20 past nine. You've got your tenant clock to be packed out So if you'd like to get on packing My bad.

He said ma'am I will kick down this door open the door, please That's tough Okay, all tears and all the usual as expected Adana receives housing benefit directly from the council But the landlady claims that she was in arrears after only one month I kept saying I told you you must pay the housing benefit directly to me But she has to process the paperwork. So she's been getting 800 pounds a month. That's your benefit. She's been pocketing housing Exactly She didn't respond to a single Text phone call or letter or email Just went Yeah, buddy, I don't I honestly I don't feel bad for her And if you could sit here in these comments and type oh, but did it know you you're part of the problem You probably got finessed by women before if you're gonna sit here and tell me that no Well, she has a but no She's on housing benefits. They were being paid directly to her And instead of her giving it to the landlady she pocketed and lived for free She was finessing and now the finesse has bit her in the rear hand Simple get out You you'll get rehoused. You got a baby.  You're the victim in this circumstance and I acknowledge that. Thank you very much.  No, no, no go back. She made herself visible. I told you. Oh my god, DK NY bags Did I pay for all that? I told you hit that like button, man.

That's what you're doing. You cross your arms. It's a signal if I'm closed off I'm not trying to hear you That's what that means. So Yeah, you're gonna hear that number when it's tripled You're gonna hear them you hauling your car away, too Unless bounce is paid in full today, we'll be taking patrol goods The dispute was over entertainments. Stephen provided at a wedding. You see they've kind of done the legal route which they In the title they do The bride and groom claimed he failed to turn up at the right time Stephen and the groom argued and the police were called Please just said if some of you're somewhere there's what I mean, but obviously it's bad communication between you the bride and the groom And I'll see you waiting there barely back communication. That's what they've got me on Stephen must pay the £1,650 high court writ. We do not care Today If Stephen can't pay the team are entitled to seize the pickup truck to offset the debt But first they need to check it's not on finance Hi Mike, can you do HPI for me tonight, please? Reiner's entertainment November Yankee Oscar Vic starts to put the pressure on I don't want to remove your vehicle. I'm gonna be honest with you, but I've got no choice. I could execute this route See what you can do microphone call see if you can speak to someone that can help you perhaps Stuart discovers the pickup truck is on long-term finance 15 months friggin hell As it's on finance Stuart can't take it so he turns his attention back to the company van Hank you do me another one mate It is battered John.  It's not in a good state, but it's roadworthy and uh Get something for it. Anyway Yeah, all right mates. I'll climb that and mobilize it the van isn't on finance But its value might not cover the total debt Stuart has a hunch there's bounty castle higher on the side and I've seen on the back of the l200 dj reiner And I'm a dj himself. So I know dj equipment like the back of my hand. So Hopefully he's got a nice nice set of decks in there. I can work with or something like that. I don't know Ah bingo Right, we've got set of speakers a few active speakers Bounty castle fantastic exactly what I needed to see The good thing is it's not going anywhere because it's comped Right, that'll do it. Let me get the inventory sheet out It is amazing what's locked behind closed doors quite literally Um, I never expected I'm not gonna sit up here lying when he opened that door and I seen that clutter I thought a roach was going to crawl out I know what was going you know living in there like that I wanted to see a van full of bounty castles, but that's a rush for me I wanted to go on it myself to be honest. I've given him half an hour to raise some funds He's not gonna raise it mate. He's got nothing. He's on 200 quid a week. Right. I've opened the van.  Yeah, I don't know how much a bounce castle is They're not cheap They're not all you're not talking 500 quid for a bounty castle are you talking I would seem to 200 to 2 grand aren't you? Yeah, depending on if he's on the size and that and uh condition The equipment might just cover the debt But without it, Mr. Rainer won't have much of a business left to run The advice I got on my DJ given it for a weekend you see Like I said all the goods in there will be will be taken control of Yeah, it's they'll still be taken control of sir All right, so you need to try and raise some funds. Yeah, I'm working best I can do I mean doing so much you can do when you're working when you've got a bad reputation Do I mean people slandered you off all over the internet said you've done this you've done that You've spread lies all over about your company and stuff like that. Yeah, I'm the best I can to keep it brief on my family's edge. Do I mean when you're in that profession and it's 100% about reputation Being in that situation.  Yeah, I mean, so you take the vehicle I can't even settle the 1615 future kind of with you If mr. Rainer doesn't come up with a payment in half an hour Tell me he don't kind of look like each and town like them as well sound like them and look like He stands to lose everything he's worked for Now the deadline is almost up Vic asks him to pay one last time Your first priority now is to try and raise the funds that's any way to stop this game this action going any further You've got the power to actually close down a business And to take control of goods and he will either collect it in pounds and pens or collect it in goods So it's entirely up to themselves which way they want to go down They say to me van with me. I'm not working this weekend obviously after being around with customers I said, sorry, unfortunately, and this is happening. Obviously, I've got nothing. I can't supply the kids party this weekend As Stuart starts to list the goods in the van Stephen reappears with his father-in-law on the phone. I have a word with him now. Let's see what they say Yeah, I'm putting on the paunting now. Yep. Who's this? All right, okay Hello Hello there. So you threw it to mr. McCrack and I can help I might work at the moment, right? I've got a credit card It's at home. I've definitely got it. I can assure you that No, I mean, um, I understand you're trying to I understand that you're trying to help business Yes, yeah, it's that we haven't got a choice. So you say so a bit naughty to take his business But you do what you have to do. Yeah, exactly right, but there's a problem When can this payment be made sir? Because we can take payments over the phone I don't fish wet to laugh for my cards at home, right? If my boss comes back earlier, I can nip all for it It's we would have taken control goods by then sir. I'll pass you back now Stuart has his reasons for rejecting the offer The reason why we can't accept a payment at half four is because what happens now we leave The van goes to work We don't see the DJ gear again. We're here now to control the goods. The goods are safe in the van We've come to we're leaving so we get a full I said that makes sense. That makes perfect sense The reason I be pausing it because it'd be background noise around so I just be pausing it so y'all don't hear It's like in video editing, but then I forget that I pause it and Full balance is simple as that The team gives Stevens father-in-law 30 minutes to make the payment Or they'll take the company van and all its contents So we'll go wait in our van like I said, and then we'll wait from there. All right The team play the waiting game The payment over the phone is it and their patience pays off. Hello there, sir To show you were able to make payments on the phone. Is that right? Okay. I'll give the card hold copy and To Steven and then he can pass that on to you All right, then so I'll pass you back now. Thanks for the payments Bye There you go There we go sources. Thanks to his father-in-law. Mr. Rainer's business can continue trading Now I gotta lie mr. Rainer with this opportunity You need to tell all your customers Go on google yelp and give me a rating or something leave a comment do something The only way you're gonna build that back up is if you you know I'm saying tell them to Just like I got to tell them to leave a comment You got to tell them to leave a five-star review too It's simple close mouths. Don't get fed cracking result that One week ago, paul and steve went to evict a tenant from his home in croydon No, you stay there my friend. Just stay there The team found the tenant just about to leave for a funeral The tenant simon was in poor health and living in squalid conditions Just a bad way to live in a rare move paul asked the landlord to give simon extra time to sort his life out So when we come back on wednesday next week, there can be no argument top man Now steve and paul are back to see whether simon has stuck to his side of the bargain If he's not in the final throws of moving out, we will actually help him on his way So we really victim because he's got no tenancy rights. No nothing He's there as a guest to the landlord under sufferance If he's still in the flat this time, there'll be no second chances Well, with a bit of luck he might have gone might they We live in hope And it's only three minutes left. So he might be gone There he goes Hello, sir Come answer the door. Are you still there? Nice to see you sir Simon is still at the flat But he's almost ready to leave. Well, you've had a good old cleanup bud. Yeah Cat's all gone. Uh, yeah All right Is it your telly in that or is that? Yeah So are you moving stuff into here or what? No, he's going into the back room Now officially homeless simon doesn't know where he will live in the future That's more secure To see if the when are they coming? I've got go there to a court. What are they doing? Are you they've housed you for tonight then? Yes, I think so. I think so. Are they actually going to rehouse you? I don't know Okay, I don't know about that. Can we give you a lift down the council? We'll just make sure you're off the premises, sir It's always an auto emotive, you know what I mean? No, he's been all right. No, he's a good lad bless him I wouldn't even want to laugh at this moment man. This ain't even Keys in Paul and steve out here trying to tickle funny bones like nobody want they funny bones tickled paul's And paul's gamble has paid off Thank you for keeping to time. It's been a traumatic week for simon After eight years, he's leaving the house for good.  The funeral went well, um, but Knowing how to come back to all this was just Worst week in my life It's a situation paul sees on a regular basis You've got my phone number. Yes, if there's anything we can do Going forward to help Jack it clean you will Take care. All right. That's all right. Thank you for keeping your end up. Thank you very much Really helps you Man of his word Simon might be able to sort a roof over his head for tonight But his long-term future Is uncertain Okay, because I ain't no nothing about him. I thought he was ready to throw hands He didn't push paul over the over the scooter on the woman One bad ten that ruined it for everybody Great business decision Told you all you gotta do is start telling people leave them in the comments A hostile Hostile and creating that doesn't sound fun. Oh, that's good Next seven months in a hostile man. That man is patient man. T. I'll leave a like comment Turn on your post notification bells, man. Make sure you leave that like though


Danny Dimes at the buzzer yesterday, right before the franchise tag had to be placed upon Danny Dimes, they were able to negotiate a four year, $160 million deal. Incentive is up to $195 million. And he's getting $82 million guaranteed. If he survives year one, is on the Giants next year. It is a $94 million guarantee for Danny Dimes and the New York Giants. And you! Congrats on getting your money, Danny Dimes. That negotiation was long and with a lot of people thinking about Lamar Jackson, this guy just got $94 million guaranteed four years, $195 million. Okay? So what do you think about? Okay? We're happy for Danny Dimes. Because Danny Dimes got a deal done, Saquon Barkley got a franchise tag. That all happened in a matter of like actually four minutes yesterday. Saquon Barkley obviously was looking for a long-term deal. The Giants were looking to keep both Daniel Jones and Saquon. They were able to get the deal done with Danny Dimes, put the franchise tag on Saquon Barkley, kicked Can down the road with him, and they get their basic core intact that they've had.
