Hello, thank you for joining me. I'm at a railway station. It appears to be quite a quiet railway station But I can guarantee the rest of this site is a lot busier than this I'm at Stapfold Junction at the Stapfold Barn Railway in Staffordshire somewhere I've always always wanted to go to today. I finally got here.  When I have a gala it'd be even busier, but I thought I'd come here today It's my first visit on a quieter day, and then I'll have to come back for a gala. So here we are at Stapfold Junction I'm not gonna... there's no train train on this platform today, but if we go over the footbridge, you'll see There. Oh, certainly train train and we'll have a look around the site. There's actually also a model rail exhibition on today So I might make a huge ring of looking at all the layouts, but we'll certainly point out one or two of them So as I come up onto the footbridge We come from... it's almost like a separate station, but this is the other side of Stapfold Junction. If you get some stations like this on the network, they have like a platform slightly out the way I'm trying to think of one like Wrexham General. Reminds me a bit of that. It's like a narrow gauge Similar to a narrow gauge version of Wrexham General. There's one of the many locos I've travelled behind today, Howard You see the turntable up there. So I've had six locos for haulage today. It's towards the end of the day They've all been winners. That means I've not travelled behind them before. So what happens here is Howard has arrived with a train Soon another steam train will pull in to this platform and then There's another steam locomotive waiting around the corner. That will take the train back and then There's another steam engine at the end of this one, which we'll go and have a look at that. That will depart So it's a very Quite an intense service they run here. But while we wait for a train to arrive We just have a look at a couple of things at this end of the site This is the more sort of garden end of the site and I'll get on to the garden railway This is One of the Sierra Leone railway carriages. It was either this carriage or one of her sisters I rode behind at the Welsh Fawn Landfare Railway a few years ago. Well, it was back in about 2005 We should visit that one again I'll see lots of locomotives and carriages today, which I have seen at other railways. So Some of them it's made me realize I've thinking I haven't been there for 20 odd years So I need to revisit some of them. So here we are his Stathold Junction Station I think I can hear the sound of a train coming up the gradient Waiting to work next to his locomotive called Alpha. So what we'll do we'll just hang around here and see the train arrive There's one of the trains arriving that was the first local travel behind today So there's three trains out but as I said, there's six locos although two of them are double-heading with two huntslets So what will probably happen now is Alpha will depart with her train and then two more locos will take over So where that Welsh Fawn Landfare X Sierra Leone carriage was was just up there You can see the line going down.  This bit's coming up. It's got run past it.  So if we go up here when I came up here the first time this morning I thought this is funny. It just takes you up into a hedge and if it will where am I going down this path It feels more like being amazed and But it takes you to a viewing area as we come down here As if I'm queuing us to steam wreckers. These are two huntslets we have so they're waiting to take over the next train if you have a look at the Signal over there signals pulled off. So that's for Alpha to depart of her train Now the interesting thing about these two these are two sisters, but they were built 99 years apart and so one was built in 2006 and the other That one there that fold and simple Mary was built in 1905 that fold junction signal box. So you can see the signalman is standing there There goes the guard's whistle. Oh, by the way, if you think my face looks dirty That's because I've been standing on the balcony right behind the steep load goes and this gradient is pretty steep It's not the only steep gradient. So hence why I've got a dirty face here. Let's watch out for go past See the signalman. He's gonna exchange tokens I Got in a second. There we go. So these little dollies in a minute should go for the Eat there we go see how middle one just dropped for these two have now got the road to go back to the station So they will work one of the next train. So we'll just see them go Boys like Cory hunts it so I'm not sure how many there are because 20 years ago, there wasn't as many as there are now So I've started building them again because places like that folder built them various other places And they're such a nice little local perfect for motion hour gauge railways. So you'll see them everywhere from Wales to Corn First had my trip behind So my first trip behind the quarry Hunts it was at the Launston steam railway in the 1990s If you want to have a look at that video have a look at link on screen now So I'm gonna trace my steps up here. You may have seen we rushed past a little narrow gauge Area where there's some wagons will go and have a look at those and then we'll continue to explore the rest of the site So we'll come back down these steps And just here Moment that goes so we'll go through to this area here You can see there's a turntable and a couple of locos and there's narrow gauge And wagons and there's those hunts that's again just through there There's more wagons in this curved shed. So this curved shed Joins up with the railway line where we've just been. So let's have a look around here. Nothing's moving here. And you can see there's two gauges two foot and two foot six or that's what I'm 99% sure they are I should keep thinking this wouldn't want to go to narrow gauge railways It just in case I'm not sure I should take a tape measure with me just to be sure to be sure but anyway Very sure nice little guard fan P-way brake fan Says the to the guard would turn this wheel a lot people must take it for being a steering wheel people don't know much about railways It's not a steering wheel. It's the brakes See inside I've ridden in these are four We were having a ride on one at Teleglenn Railway. It was great fun riding down from the hills Looks like a ballast wagon and there is literally so much stuff I can't possibly go through what everything is and I don't actually know too much about anything is There's these two locals here. I'm not too short there. I guess I'd say they're mining locals I'd thought they're electrics. They probably work down in mind But I might be wrong and if I am wrong do comment and tell me I'd love to know what they are I have bought the guidebook which lists all the stock so which I haven't actually had a chance to look up There's so much here. I got here fairly early this morning I got here about 11 o'clock came up on the train. They put a vintage bus on which will probably see some of the vintage brushes They put a vintage bus on from Tamworth railway station. That's how I got here There's another shed there. There's even a bit of what looks to be standard gauge track up there I know they have had standard gauge track in the past. So as you go around here It says tram this way and garden. So yeah, they've got trams here. They've got a garden railway Well, look, there's Howard which we saw at the railway station So how the wait here for his next turn or her next turn to work to train This looks like a standard gauge piece of rolling stock a steam crane So it's and it does power it would have powered itself because you can tell by the gears on the on the wheels At least I think it possibly powers itself. So that was built in Bedford So there's another railway here called the garden row, which isn't actually running today So here's a rather sharp railway going off there through those gates. So that's the garden railway So that's not open today But that's not a problem because it's a brilliant reason to come back here again. I Personally chose to come here today not on one of their garter days because I knew I really wanted to explore the site And I feel if I've come on the garter day, I just be it's been fairly overwhelming with just so much stuff going on today So if I come on the garter day, you know, I thought I'll come and see the site on the quieter day And I do wonder why I've never been here before It's an amazing place There's a diesel loco We're gonna see so many locus the shoe wait later on in this video We're gonna just keep it's gonna get ridiculous fairly soon come around here private tramway level crossing Yes, they have trams here and we're just crossing a stream at the moment This bridge takes us over a street And on the other side is the garden rail, which as I said, we're not doing today because it's not running So when we get to here, it says tram this way So you'd cross the track and go and have your ride on the tram, which I did this morning. So that's the tram stop and You see over there that shed. That's the tram shed. It's really good here. I was standing down here earlier And when a train comes up this hill Really open up and it's pretty mad Just see the trees to guard the railway. So as I said The reason to come back, but there's loads of reasons to come back. So what I'm doing now is I'm following the railway Down the hill. So that was that fold junction. There's three stations, which you can travel on and off today And then this rain goes off on a big loop Right the way around to the other side of that field and they've also got another loco Working what's called driver for a fiver. The queue was about an hour long So I thought well, it'd be fun, but I'll give that a missed and here comes a tram Seems really funny seeing this tram just running through the fields with no wires or anything I'll explain where the trams come from And she's gone past, but I'll let you watch her go past So That is a Burton and as we like railways tram number 14 So she worked not too far from here actually, but what happened was she I believe she ended up in America And then a few years ago. She was up for sale So the opportunity was taken to bring her back to the UK and it's quite nice She now runs here nearer to where she would have worked The interesting thing was I'm not sure which gate she previously was but they had to obviously regage her to two foot Or is she two foot six to one of those gauges to work here and she's must be fit of an electric motor because as you can see There are no overhead wires here. So So yeah, this is like railway line What looks like a tramway isn't what the tram's running on just to confuse everyone and then the tram is over on the far Tractors free tracks running on here There's also I said we went over a river Down here So when trains are going In that direction they don't call it actually hope they do on the way back And as I said, they go off for a trip around the loop You may see if there is a train going along there will see the smoke in the distance. So That's where they go the plan is to eventually extend it take the train massive Gradient but up past those farm buildings. So yes, there's another train coming So this is a train passing through strawberry park on the through line on by the way in that building is the One of the halls housing the modern rail exhibition. We'll go and have a quick look I'm not going to show you every layout because that'll take a long time and They're all very good else, but here's number 19 coming. We'll watch her go past Off she goes up the hill number 19 was built by Hudwell Clark in Leeds So So some of the locos are newer, but I think all the ones out today are older ones So this is strawberry park station So as I said, we'll go out the front and I'll show you a few things when I arrived here when I came on this vintage bus From the railway station. I arrived just the other side is fence, which you'll see very shortly And then I came in here. So as I haven't been here before I just came here and a train pulled in so I got on it so Here we go. There's a big American truck here on display You can see some of the buses. So I came on that isn't the bus I came on It was an old Walsall bus from the Wyville or Whivel Transport Museum, which has a miniature railway So I have been in the past at some point we'll go there to do an episode of miniature railway Britain Talking a miniature railway Britain Over there when I came in I noticed there's a miniature railway under construction So once that starts running to the public that too will be featured in miniature railway Britain So there's at least two more miniature railways in the pipeline for me to visit. So this is this big shed here Which has lots of model railways. We're gonna have a very quick look I'm not gonna show them all because it would make the video a long long video But it just shows you can have a great time here if you do come here for the day because there are so many So as we go in Just giving you an idea and there's very few trade stands quite a lot going on This will be a model railway. Just watch the train go past and then we'll go back outside It's quite amusing what's coming. It's the APT, the gas turbine APT painted in in the city So I just haven't watched her as she goes past She's the help from the hand of God but So as you go to the fictional livery you may remember a while ago I did make a video where we went in the real APT the one that's preserved at crew if you want to see that video I haven't looked at link on screen now Different now double fairly So I've ridden behind some double fairly in the past on the first in your growing as I said this whole hall is completely full of Model railways, but I'm not gonna show them all like they've made video very very long What if that's the bus that came on see that blue bus over there the other side of carpet. That's the one I came on What we're gonna do now, we're gonna have a look at a few other things and There's basically a room full of locomotives. There's so many locomotives. I haven't counted them all But it's got to be I don't know on the whole side today. It's got to be I'll say getting on for a hundred Maybe not quite maybe 70 of a lot though So it's kept me entertained all day I don't know if I've ever seen in the UK. That is so many narrow gauge In one day, so there's a couple of the buses so I'll be getting the last one back to Tamworth station at five o'clock We're gonna go over here Where these sheds are there's a few interesting things to see over there And then we're gonna go into this shed which houses more of the model rail exhibition and it also houses just Loads and loads and loads of loaders. This is nice a little van That's that fold palm railway you've lost in van And I said nasty bus switch bought me here, and it probably will take me back again. So you got this little corner here. I Haven't noticed this till my first got here. There's various assortment of interesting vehicles moving this huge excavator to your road vehicles and then It gets more interesting for me. I think so. I mean, he's a good deal because there's a narrow gauge Diesel local over there. There's this Engine built in Stockport It's like a horse and trapped there now these Funny-looking locals. I believe these are electric locals from either to Norwich quarry in North Wales If it's not to Norwich, it's another quarry if you know which quarry do comment and tell me Not sure where that local worked I've had one of these a similar one of these on the Weltshine Territage Railway one that worked on the channel tunnels This one says no me cable tunnel. So that's obviously where that works on the construction of the tunnel Beats the Veloco looks just like a little Shunt of then you realize how long it is and powerful. It must be a couple more diesel Now so there's some of your diesel locals But imagine a shed about ten times the size of that full of steam locals. That is what we're going to see soon Again now We Could go in that way that would be the shorter way in but what I'm going to do I'm going to take you the other way around just because I think and It will I want to say for the real best bits till last and also we might see some other trains on the way There's a boiler over there steam locos boiler. It's just things lying everywhere. Look. There's something off something or Yeah, there'll be a steam loco, you know a miniature one or a model one. It just seems You sort of walk around you miss something the first time and then you find it again That's that stream again, which we walked over And off down there. So as we come towards here, that was Strawberry Park station just over there That path here provides a shortcut to Strawberry Park station And we're back to two huntslets which we saw getting ready to take over the train They're just calling it Strawberry Park. So what we'll do we'll walk up here to Oatry Hole for us. It was there this junction here This goes through those gates and into this huge shed, which I mentioned a moment ago We're going to go and have a look around and It's very exciting inside that shed. I was just like when I walked in I mean I was expecting a lot But I was just like what is this much? I just could not believe the sheer Scale of how many things that were here. So what will happen is the two huntslets will come up here and then There's another train You might have just heard the whistle of waiting just around the corner at Oak Tree Hulk So that will They'll pass each other It looks like people getting on off while we wait for them we'll have a look in this little area here So Where are we? Yeah, we're gonna go in there soon. But first I just want to show you a couple of things here There's a few interesting things here There's a gauge carriage The other end of the tram line is just over here. We go through to here with a little sweet shop there And so about loads of it everywhere. There's a local there. There's a traction engine there We'll go through to here and There's a train waiting here. I'm not sure which locos on it. If you're wondering why the whole school don't tree hold There's your answer So that's how for which we saw earlier on in the video waiting here the train I've not been there, but it reminds me of what I've seen what the bed of some railway in northern France looks like It looks a bit similar similar characters you stand outside people have been let's tell me It's just so nice. You can stand outside and enjoy being on the train. Enjoy the views If you get to here At least cadets are patrolling to be level crossing. There's the tram so We're waiting to see a train get past So it looks as though the tram has now finished with the day So I did have a ride didn't actually get go upstairs because there was a queue and I was concentrating on Riding as much as I possibly could So yeah, I just got waiting to see the train pass now What I might do actually is Because I don't know how long it's gonna be and it's getting towards the end of the day I might just skip that one. But if you have a look at the link to the actual video. I've made of the gala There's gonna be plenty of run-bys in that so you will see lots of trains passing So there's certainly no shortage of trains there. So How far's waiting to go? Let's go and show you what I actually came here for this so many different things to see There's this hall here. This has got like Micro layouts really really small layouts But we're gonna go through here to this building Typical there goes the train, but Just hear them steaming through but like I said do watch the other video you'll see everything in there We're going into that build and we're gonna take you this way because there's a couple of other locos I can show you on the way So that would be quite fun And it's just Is this local which I'm pretty sure it's a compressed air I think we might be being missed that picture behind Built in Leeds now we go through to here. This is where the main bulk of the moderale exhibition is held It goes upstairs as well. Yes It goes upstairs And I'll quickly walk around here to a couple of things on the way layouts are everywhere There's one up here. I do quite like him. You'll see why in a second This layout here is quite cool because it's actually live steam Sourcing steam locos working whether we will now but it was so again, that'll be in the main video Some of the live steam we saw here We walk through to here There's locos everywhere. These are of all sorts of different things Locos everywhere. It's like this one Under the tank engine. Let's just run past. I think there's a steam locos coming out on that live steam one So we've got to we'll see that Including as I said so much stairs. Let's get this way again. There's more diesels even up there So it's just a bit mad this place for seeing so many different Locos sort of like it's all these bookstores look behind them Feeling this one standard gauge not entirely sure again do comments and tell me There's more railways Right question is do we go upstairs or stay downstairs? I think we'll do we will go upstairs and then I'll show you the view that is a little bit unexpected, but pretty amazing And as I said about there being locos everywhere model miniature. Look at that. That's a channel tunnel construction loco And then we come to the upstairs which well firstly gives us quite a good view over this part of the exhibition More quarry hunts. It's this one's actually been cut away as you can see the interior workings of the steam loco I'm not going to go through in too much detail, but basically Fire is in there And then there's water it is the tank here, which is blue the water is injected into the boiler Goes up to the dome where the steam is once it comes to you and the steam obviously powers the cylinders So I'm a little bit slow goes from her a good side though so you can see what she really looks like So she's called good truth. She was built in Leeds in 1909 to works number 995 So that's and here's one of her sisters built brawler later in 1932 This is Mitchell Michelle King of the scarlets Some don't She was built in 1889 So she's built 100 years before I was born And there's a picture of her king of the scarlets at work probably at the Norwick quarry We have some hunts that didn't just build steam locus. They built diesel They still build diesel today. This one was built in 1939, but her works numbers of 2019 so Now this is where oh, there's a public part What we're gonna go through a door in a minute, and this is where it's really going to go mad Oh, look at those works plates all over the wall. It's gonna get mad in a second So right one last view over at the model exhibition. Oh, there's a few more Little locus down there and there's one just here Steam loco up here now we're going to see a mega collection of Narrow gauge locus look at this that it's just mad It's just like Just I don't know what to say. It's just so exciting to come to subway and find these many locus. It's just amazing We're a huge turntable in it. We're gonna go and have a look at these locus of course. We can't not do This is will it they come from all over the world this diagram shows you all the parts of the shows all the parts The world they've worked so just about everywhere And then there's another one. I think along here this one shows you all the countries in the world Well, they were built and then also parts of the UK where they built was much of it And so quite a few in Europe one was built in Africa couple of American locus I'll show you which ones are American You might even know already by looking Here the exhibition is starting to pack up now So it's quite a good time to come and have a look round You can see some of them need a lot of work doing before they're ever gonna run again, but that's all part of fun So we come to the ground and Here's some of the various locus So like I said, I'm not gonna comment and tell you what every single one is but some of them. I will I'm just gonna sort of walk past them all really So these are various industrial diesel locus quite a lot of locus here are industrial not all of them Most of them are some of them would have worked on various railways and again I don't know too much of this one's of interest to me Atlas if you kind of look it says Abbey light railway And that's a picture of the ruined Kirkstall Abbey over in Leeds It was a narrow gauge railway near the Abbey. Unfortunately it closed when the owner passed away I never actually rode on that one, but one day we'll go back there and we will do a video a non-railway video on Kirkstall Abbey Winch So as we come down here now here's some of the more weird unusual things, but no less very exciting. There's this Land Rover and yes, it's on railway Even though it still has a steering wheel now, I've seen this Land Rover in action It was a Adrian shooters railway and the beaches like railway over in Oxfordshire I did go to one of their open days once. I don't think there's any footage this But you have a look at link on screen now You can see the footage of the steam locomotive Darjeeling steam locomotive is this rather mad-looking rail car called the goose And I remember this Sandy River parlor car This was an Asian shooters railway and then has an American local there I'm gonna have a look at that properly in a minute The sound of steam you can hear now, that's all playing out in speakers This local is actually German built by Orestine and Koppel, a German company, so it's got a tender There's another local, a second local that's come across is called Howard Although Howard's quite new despite having a vertical boiler, only built in 2007 Another little diesel locomotive Come round here, as I said, it's getting towards the end of the day Hence why a lot of the Stools have been packed up, but that's why I waited till the end of the day to make this video Come to here More locals Look, here's an American one here with the parlor car from the beaches like railway into their plate Davenport locomotive works, Iowa Better build as when they built this local in Iowa, I had no idea she'd end up on a farm in Staffordshire for her retirement Another diesel locomotive A few of these around, I've ridden behind one or two of them There another one which they've built a few newer ones in preservation, but this one was built in 1918 over in Stoke-on-Trent Here's that, here's two of the loco's awaiting restoration Now this loco here, this hunts that's Cory Hunts it, Cloister, I have had for haulage back in November 2004 at the Kubrickstee Museum So she was built in 1891, so again, she's quite old but I have had her for haulage When she was there, the other loco that used to work there I'll show you, it's just around here, this one, Wendy She also used to work there, but I've not had her for haulages Saddle tank, it could be mistaken for being standard gauge, she's a peck it ever looked So we'll continue to walk around, see what else we can see I think they're gonna close soon, so I'm gonna have to wrap up this video, another Cory Hunts it from Jonathan This one I particularly like around here, it's a mallet, so it's articulated and then We'll go to around here and we'll finish up on the turntable So yeah, do have a look at, it's just mad this place, I just can't believe to see so many loco's And then on the turntable, there's another few loco's, so I hope you enjoyed this video Thank you very much for watching and from the Stat Folklarn Railway Please do feel free to like, subscribe and comment, do come visit one of their events. Thank you very much. Goodbye


You're too young to do real estate. I became the number one agent out of every agent, every brokerage in my area for eight years in a row, and spending time with your loved ones and really living the life that you want to live. And that's exactly how I live. I knock off at five o'clock, I knock off on the weekends, and I bring my family everywhere we go. We travel three times a month and speak. Every single one of you can do anything you want to do in life if you're just willing to do one thing. Whatever you decide to do, don't stop until you're the best in the world. Look at these four markets, Vegas, Phoenix, San Francisco, Austin, same trends, bottomed out in January, boom to the moon. They're sitting on low mortgage rates they don't want to sell.  Builders.  Hey guys, how we doing? I know it's really late in the day. Let's see how loud you can get. Make some noise if you had some really incredible value today. Make some noise if you love real estate. Okay, y'all are awake. My name is Ricky Carruther from Gulf Shores, Alabama. You might be thinking, how the hell did you get here? I'll tell you how. Every single thing that I decide I want to do, I don't stop until I'm the best in the world. When I was coming up in school, you're too small to play football. I walked out of high school with a full paid scholarship. You're too young to do real estate. I became the number one agent out of every agent, every brokerage in my area for eight years in a row. Thanks mom. My mom's actually here and my wife and daughter that actually really hit me kind of hard when Andy Elliott came out here with his wife and said he brings her everywhere she goes because I do the same thing. And he was talking about quality of life and spending time with your loved ones and really living the life that you want to live and that's exactly how I live. I knock off at five o'clock, I knock off on the weekends and I bring my family everywhere we go. We travel three times a month and speak and it's a great, great life. Now what I want to do, do I have my slides? There we go. There we go. Can we go back? There we go. All right. I just want you guys to know before I move on to my slides that every single person in here can do anything you want to do. If I, growing up in a trailer in Alabama, could do the things that I've done, every single one of you can do anything you want to do in life. If you're just willing to do one thing, whatever you decide to do, don't stop until you're the best in the world. I ain't talking about market or country, the world. Now we're going to play a little game. Tell me the first word that comes to your mind, all right? What's the first word you think of when you hear the word Alabama? Yeehaw, football, country. I was in New York and I asked that, you know what they said? Mud. I said, I don't know anything about mud. I'll show you why. All I know about is sand, baby. This is where I grew up, right here on the Alabama Gulf Coast. You guys knew we had beaches? We're going to have some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Next time you want to go on a vacation, you don't know where you want to go, come to Gulf Shores, Orange Beach, Alabama. Come check out our seafood restaurants and holler at me. Let's go have coffee, let's hang out. I'll show you around. Hell, I might even sell you a condo or two. Now I'm here to do one thing today, and that's to prove this to you. Why now is the worst time in history to buy real estate. Ready? Come on, guys. Now I've been really good at predicting the market over the last couple of years. All right, how did I do that? Well, I've been doing this for 21 years, and I'm a great test taker. I'm an educated guesser, really good at it. This is kind of jacked up looking. That's okay. On April 28, 2020, what were we all doing? We were locked up. Don't let me out. I put out a video. Why the market is about to surge, not only surge, but why it's going to be the largest surge that we've ever seen. What happened? 2021 happened. We had six million transactions. In December, I said, we hit bottom for home prices. We're going to start coming back up. What happened? In January, we hit a bottom, so it was a little early, but I'll take it. On January 12, I was sat right here on this stage and said, we're about to see a little springtime surge that's going to be amazing. What happened? We had a surge. We had more transactions. Prices started to increase from that moment. And here more recently, early May, I said, not only were we about to hit positive year-over-year prices, but we're about to go to an all-time new high in home prices. And I said it was going to happen in July. It's July. What's happening? Does anyone know? We're about to hit an all-time high for home prices in the country. This is one report of many, many, many reports. This is just Zillow. There's several different data companies. They said that we're up 10% from April to May, transaction-wise, up 0.9%, 1%, year-over-year positive prices. This is a chart of Redfin that gives you the most up-to-date numbers when it comes to home prices. Look at where we are right now, the blue line. We've caught up to last year. We hit an all-time high in June. You can see there was, what's not there, it's 387 is where the all-time high was last June. And right now we're at 384, and 0% grow through every year according to this chart. You're going to see more and more companies. We've just seen a CNBC article come out that said we're about to hit an all-time new high. Like Finn said about two weeks ago, we're 4,000 away from all-time high. This wasn't hard to see. That little square is kind of covering up the wall that was created last year by the decline of prices. It wasn't hard for me to see that we were going to bust right through that. This is just prices we're talking about. There it is. But Ricky, that's national data. Real estate is local. It's local. Right? You hear that? Even the real estate bears, the crash brothers? Okay, here's probably the four worst hit markets during this downturn. This is what this was. This was a 2008 situation, ladies and gentlemen. You know we're down to about the same amount of transactions this year as we did in 2008? This is 2008. This is the bottom. Look at these four markets, Vegas, Phoenix, San Francisco, Austin. Same trends, bottomed out in January, boom, to the moon. It's local. Look at the data. Oh, but what goes up must come down, right? No, you're confused in the real estate prices with the stock market. It's not the same thing. What goes up doesn't necessarily mean it's going to go down in real estate. Look at this. Appreciation going back to 1942. What happened in the mid-40s? Several years. What is that? Five, six years of double-digit appreciation? You know what they said back then? It's going to crash and burn. Prices are going to plummet. One up too high. What happened? Positive, positive, positive, positive, positive, positive. Later on in the mid-70s, we had six years, four of which were double-digit, positive appreciation years. This is when interest rates went up to 19%. Remember everybody tries to scare you with? Look at appreciation during these years. It's going to crash and burn, okay? The year after all this, the big run-up, six years' worth of the run-up, it still hit 7%, 5, 1, 5, 7, 7, 10, was 1980, was 1977, a good time to buy real estate? Yeah. Continue to go up. In 2008, we see what happened there in the mid-2000s, subprime mortgage crisis. Only time it really actually went down, and here more recently, two double-digit years of appreciation, and we're all freaking out about it. There's a recession coming. Okay. Look at the data from recessions of what home prices do during a recession. Do you see? They just go up, up, up and away. They crash in 2008, which, by the way, you go back to 2008 and look at the data and know what you know now, and you look at the number of transactions, the prices, the entire picture of the data back in 2008, knowing what you know now.  That really wasn't so bad. It was actually great. You know how easy it was to sell real estate in 2008? That's when I got back in the business from losing everything, sleeping in my car, eating out of people's refrigerators. I got back in 2008, and it was so easy. Why? Because prices were half off. Who doesn't want half off real estate? Make some noise real quick. Okay. What about demand? So an article came out, 98% of millennials want to become homeowners, because they want to build their equity instead of someone else's. 72 million millennials in the country, I thought, hmm, let me dig a little deeper here. So I looked up and found that the average first-time home buyer is 33 to 36 right now. And I said, hmm, okay. These are millennials. 98% want to become homeowners. Let me dig a little deeper. How many 33-year-olds do we have in the country right now? So I went back to birth rates.  What year would that be? 1990? What do you see on this chart in terms of birth rates in 1990? Is it a blip? Or is it a massive spike? It's a massive spike. We got more 33-year-olds right now in the country than we've had in a long time. And 98% of these people want to become homeowners. Think about this. Next year they're 34, 35, 36, then you've got the next group. Now see how high the birth rates stay for over a decade and a half? There's so much demand right now. It's not even funny. Can you even think about the sellers who are locked into their homes because they're sitting on low mortgage rates they don't want to sell?  Think about that. That demand is brewing. There's a historic amount of pent-up demand unlike anything we've ever seen. You also have immigrants coming into the country. Where are they going to live? Are they going to rent? Some of them buy. Are they going to rent? That also increases prices. Rents go up. We're in a win-win situation here, ladies and gentlemen. But mortgage payments, they're just out of this world. Nobody can afford this. This is the monthly mortgage payment going back to 89. Looks scary, right? Let me give you a nice visual of what this really is and adjust this for inflation. Now, what do we see here? I'll tell you what we see. We see that we're just getting back to the way it was in the 90s and the early 2000s. And then when you really look at this, you realize we have been spoiled for the last decade and a half and we didn't even know it. All we're doing is getting back to normal. Is it a little high now? Yes, and that's what I believe is going to level prices out. Prices aren't going to shoot to the moon forever. We're going to go up a little more, but affordability is going to level it out. We're going to hit that ceiling, but the point is we're not going to get back to how it was over the last decade and a half. People are going to grow accustomed to this, ladies and gentlemen. Now let's look at the amount of your household income that goes towards the mortgage payment. There's a chart going back to 89. You see the same thing. We were spoiled. We didn't know how good we had it, and now we're just getting back to normal. What's the big deal? Well, because there's a lot of crybabies in the world. What about the foreclosures? It's going to be a wave of foreclosures. We're not even back to half of the foreclosures that we were pre-pandemic. And Black Knight just came out and said, we're still at historic lows when it comes to pre-foreclosures and delinquencies with no sign of any massive boom of foreclosures happening. We'd have to double where we are just to get back where we were pre-pandemic, much less back to when we had a crash. Not going to happen. One of the biggest reasons is equity. Look at that. That's the average equity that Americans have in their home. Why is that? Because prices went up so high, but you know what? Prices are holding solid. Why? Because lending regulations that were put into place after 2008. Thank you, government. Didn't think I'd ever say that. But that is why we're going through 2008 all over again, but prices are holding solid. Real housing crisis. If you go back to the 80s, this is housing inventory, the number of homes for sale. The entire 80s, we had somewhere anywhere between 2 and 3 million homes for sale at any given time. 2 and 3 million. Right now, we're sitting on 750 to 800,000 listings. This is 2023. In 1980, there's 2 to 3 million the entire decade, and now we're at 750 to 800. You with me? Where's the inventory going to come from? We're the lowest that we've ever been historically at this point in the year. We're down 11.6% from this point last year. Nobody wants to sell their home. They're sitting on such low interest rates. So who's the big winner? Anybody? Come on. This is real estate. You guys are in real estate, right? You guys got any ideas who the big winner is in the market right now? Builders. Homebuilders are crushing it. Because there's so much demand, and there's nothing for sale. They're absolutely crushing it. And they're giving better interest rates. They're doing buy downs, incentives. They're killing it. They're going to continue to kill it. So what does all this stuff I just said mean for your business? Anybody? What? Buy more real estate. I'm amongst real estate people, right? Yeah, real estate. That's not an answer, bro. I'll tell you what it means. Not a, absolutely nothing. Why? Because it's the same as I said.  Right?  Closings every day by the truck loads. It doesn't stop. It's mother nature. You can't stop it. Not going to stop it. All you can do is embrace it. Go with it. Take advantage of it, because it's just cycles. And guess what? 110% of the time. It doesn't just surge back every once in a while. 110%. If you see here, in 2008, we did 4.1 million transactions. Right now, we're on track to do 4.2 million transactions. Do you realize how close we are to the 2008 when it comes to the number of transactions in the country? Look at where we were pre-2008. Look at what we were after. All the way up to this chart goes to 2021, I believe. Look what a normal year looks like. Look where 2008 was. That was our worst year. We are there.  OK. We're there. You see how long it took to get back to 5 million transactions? Five years? It's not going to happen this time. It's going to be a violent resurgence of the market back to 5 million transactions. Violent. Right now, as the times are prepared for the market to resurge for the violent resurgence, not once it starts, ladies and gentlemen. How well did I do to prove to you guys this is the worst time in history to buy real estate? I did good. You don't want to buy any? My goal is to buy 100 million this year. I'm buying everything I see. I'm buying new construction. I'm closing on a new construction home every month. Why? Better interest rates, no maintenance, good cash flow, appreciation. I'm finding the deals. Small commercial, 2,000 square foot buildings. And I'm looking for multifamily. If you got multifamily, bring them to me. That's my Instagram. Answer every single message. If you would like a copy of these slides, text me here. You will get them,<PHONE_NUMBER>. And stay in touch, because I'm going to continue to grow. Are you guys here to grow? Let's grow together. Let's stay in touch. And this wealthy investor community is the number one fastest growing real estate investing community on the face of the planet. It's the best real estate investing community on the face of the planet. How many people are here? Wealthy investor, by the way. OK. I'm in this. We have, if you're new to real estate investing, this is great for you. If you want to collaborate with some of the big boys, this is great for you. If you're a big boy, this is great for you. Because we're collaborating. We're throwing deals back and forth. We're learning from each other. This is one of the most innovative groups in the real estate investing space that you'll ever see. So I hope I can find you in the wealthy investor community. All right. Much love. I wish you well on your journey. Let me know what I can do to help you. And keep crushing it. Thank you.


U.S. sending ammunition tanker trucks boats to Ukraine this time. The State Department announced that the U.S. will send Ukraine $350 million in weapons and equipment as fierce battles with Russian forces continue for control of the city of Bakhmut and troops prepare for an expected spring offensive. According to Associated Press Agency, the latest package of aid includes a large amount of various types of ammunition such as rockets for the high-mobility artillery rocket systems and an undisclosed number of fuel tanker trucks and riverine boats. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in a statement said the package also provides more ammunition for how it says Bradley Infantry fighting vehicles, high speed anti-radiation missiles and anti-tank weapons. Russia alone could end its war today. Until Russia does, we will stand united with Ukraine for as long as it takes, said Blinken. The new aid comes as Chinese leader Xi Jinping arrived in Moscow giving a political lift to Russian President Vladimir Putin against the West just days after an international arrest warrant was issued for the Kremlin leader on war crimes charges related to Ukraine. The American weapons will be taken from Pentagon stocks through the presidential drawdown authority so it will be able to be delivered quickly to the warfront. The US has provided more than $32.5 billion in military aid to Ukraine since Russia invaded in February 2022.


Hi, my name is Bob Dunhouse. I am coming to you from the Tianma booth here at SID 2023. First display I'd like to show you is a micro LED transparent display. So, this is in your new display area? That's correct. The new technology display area. And how's the performance? The transfer series is very good. It's 70% transmissive. With a low reflection ratio of about 10%. Alright, so this is going to be all the future self-driving cars on the windows and everything? That's one potential. Anywhere where there's glass, I believe that it could be applicable. In every home? Every window? Yeah, I mean there's many ways to implement it. This is a micro LED? Yeah, this is another micro LED display. Very similar to the one we just looked at. However, it has a regular liquid crystal display laminated to the back of it. And what we're able to do is control the transparency of the display. Actively control the transparency of the display. So it can vary it anywhere from one tenth of a percent transmissive all the way up to 24%. And does this demo show all the modes? It does. We'll have to actively switch them. This is not the image to look at. Alright, then it goes through transparent mode also? Yes. So here you see how it darkened? So we're at one tenth of a percent transparency. And now I'll lighten it. Now you can see inside. Now we're at 24% transparency. Nice. Is it some kind of an electrophoretic glass? No, actually it is a standard liquid crystal display that's laminated to the back of a micro LED display. Alright. No color filter on that particular back plane though. So it's been a busy display week? It's been very busy actually and very popular. Now we're also in the new technology area and this is flexible active matrix OLED displays. The display that you're looking at currently is what we call a trifle or a z-fold. And it's exhibiting both an inner and outer fold. The idea behind that would be a foldable tablet as an example. The display you're looking at currently is a 6.67 inch inner fold display. We can do an inner fold radius of about two millimeters. Alright. And is your audio foldable display mass production shipping? Yeah, they aren't. Again, this is the new technology area so they're demonstration. So it's for soon? The new technology is out there now. Alright. Alright. You want to move over? This is the consumer space. And this is a two OLED displays side by side. As you can see they're equal in image quality. The difference is this uses our CFOT technology or color film on the TFT layer. What that enables us to do is remove the outer polarizer. When doing so that we're able to reduce the power consumption roughly 30%. Makes it more power efficient. Nice. That's a big deal. It is. It is. Alright. The next is a 6.81. What they call it a quad curve display. And that means that all of the edges are actually curved. So this could help to have a better, less kind of... It's aesthetics. Aesthetics. Aesthetics. This is a 6.497 inch, what we call privacy display. So display on display on the left is your normal display in LTPS. And this is the privacy switching feature. So if you look off angle you see I can change... You can change the privacy level? Yes, that's correct. So we limit the horizontal viewing angle. Alright. This is a touch embedded display. It actually has an active pen sensor embedded in the glass assembly itself. This is just a demonstration of a fast refresh display. This usage would be for like handheld gaming where they need immediate response in displays. It's demonstrating 60 versus 180 Hertz. Nice. This is a low temperature polysilicon displays. But you're always looking to get the thinnest border you possibly can. This is just demonstrating the reduction in the down border. Roughly a reduction of about a half a millimeter. Now we're in the consumer space. This is a 13.3 inch. It's a 2.8K fast frame rate, 120 Hertz touch embedded display. So it's not an add on PCAP sensor. It's actually embedded in the TFT cell itself. A tablet would be a typical application. So it's not capacitive. It's PCAP. It is PCAP. Yeah, protected capacitive. But it's in cell, not on cell. So it makes it thinner. This is a very fast frame rate demonstration. Very high frame rate, 480 Hertz. So typically liquid crystal displays refresh at a 60 Hertz rate. This is 480 Hertz. And again, we're in a consumer space. This is a 16 inch. It's high resolution 3K by 2K. It uses a mini LED back plane for high dynamic contrast. And it has 2000 dimming zones in the back. This is a 1.5 inch flexible AM OLED display on a flexible substrate. And that would be used for complex shapes. This is a free form. It's round. Nice. Yeah. All right. So what are we checking next? Well, why don't we go over to the medical diagnostic monitors. All right. So with these two displays, TIEMA has always been very involved in the medical space. Especially for medical diagnostic imaging. The display you're looking at right here is a 30.9 inch 12 meg color display. And in reference to that, I want to show the panel to the right, which is a 21.35 meg color. Now we're only showing black and white here, but it is a true color display. This is normally used. This is a standard in the medical imaging X-ray diagnostic field. But if you notice this particular size, which is a standard, typically you would have a radiologist that would have two of these side by side. The problem is, is because there's two different panels side by side, is they could be slightly different in color temperature, in color reproduction. And that's very critical in imaging like this. Therefore, if you follow this and you take this over, you will notice that this single panel is actually two of the displays. Now what that does is that it makes sure that the color performance from two AB comparison displays is equal. This is also a 10-bit driver, so color resolution is very, very finite. And it uses a photo alignment to make sure that black levels and uniformity across the entire surface are very uniform. When you have the perfect solution there, then you have three or four million doctors in the world, physicians, what's called surgeons, they'll want to have it. Yeah, I mean, I think the whole X-ray imaging world is transitioned from film-based to digital-based for lots of reasons. Storage capacity would be one. The next is another one of our strengths, which is applications in the marine market. This particular display is a 20.8 inch. It's a 4K by 2K in resolution. It's a very, very bright display at 1400 nits. So in the marine environment, it's very important to select the materials that you use. So we use outer polarizers and liquid crystal material that can withstand high UV exposure. Because typical, if you use just standard polarizers, they would weather, they would yellow over time. So this particular display is ruggedized for the marine environment. Next display is, we call this our invisible technology. And we're developing, this is a film-based pattern on the outside. We're developing these four films, silver all the way up to red oak. And really what it allows it to do, this is more for aesthetics of design. So if you can turn off the display, the display disappears. So there could be some aesthetic designs that you don't want to see that there's a display available until you actually want to use it. So you can see here, it disappears, but yet, there's still a touch function. Nice. It makes it attractive for people to go and touch and play with devices and smart home controls and everything. It's an aesthetic design, consideration. And they are thinking about that in the automotive space, which we'll get to in a bit. Another one of our strengths is in the industrial space is high-shock and vibe displays. This particular free-form display, circular display, is capable of withstanding 10 Gs of shock, which is very, very high-shock. That can be used in things like tractors, earth movers, any place where you have real high-shock and vibration environment. The next three displays are, again, we're in the industrial space. These are typically more custom-made products. Each one of them has what we call our TED technology, which is touch-embedded display. That means the PCAP sensor itself, the touch sensor itself, is embedded in the TFT cell. It allows it to be very, very thin. Same is true here. And a little bit larger inside, same is true here. This is our latest generation of wet and glove technology. And those that are familiar with PCAP sensing know that for outdoor use where there's exposure to water, false touch becomes an issue. This is demonstrating that the touch functions are working properly, even with water dropping on it. You see how we mentor lots of water drops on here, that everything is functioning correctly. Works with gloves, too. This just demonstrates our ability for PCAP integration. This is a very large 27-inch full HD display. It has an external PCAP sensor, as you can see here. So Tianmue is capable of doing a 30-inch PCAP sensor on a very large display, up to 30-inch. And soon we'll be able to go to 32-inch. We also do the custom cover glass, you see there. All of this is direct bonded at our factory, OCR-bonding, wet bonding. That's good. Big touch screens? We are doing a lot of touch screens. Not quite that large yet, but again, we're showing that we have the ability to do that. It just depends upon the customer demand. So the next three displays that we'll be looking at here is, as our company has progressed, we had two product ranges. We had what we call our TM product range and our NL product range. Now we're standardizing on our product range. It's called our P-Series product range. And displays in that product range will be available in three different flavors, if you want to call it that. One is entry, the next is basic, and followed by advanced. So what you get as you step up in range is you get higher brightness, more rugged, more contrast, more backlight life, things like that. The other thing that we've done is we decided to standardize on wide viewing angle technologies. It's our SFT technology, and that will be throughout the range. Leveraging off of our production technologies is the possibility of moving into different product ranges. The first one that you're viewing right now is called a microfluidic chip. And in essence, what it allows is rather than a human picking up a sample, a liquid sample, and moving it from location to location, you place it on the surface, and by computer control can move that fluid sample. So basically what it aids in is an automated way to move a fluid sample from test station to test station. So for higher throughput. This is a glass-based chip technology, chip bonding technology. So as you can see here, it starts with a substrate with a chip. This is actually a CMOS sensor. It is separated. It's moved to a circuit board, and finally to a camera module. So it's a CMOS camera module. This is a phased array liquid crystal antenna. And this would be typically used for reception of a commercial satellite. It's not for home use. It's not for consumer use. Starlink? Starlink would be a perfect example. Does that mean you're using the LCD factory to make an antenna? Yes, absolutely. I mean, these are the things, you know, we're just leveraging off of what we already have in-house. And looking to expand. We're now moving into the automotive space. And this is an 11.6 inch. It's called camera under display. So what we've done is we've integrated an infrared camera in the lower part of the display. Yeah. So part of a very hot topic these days is driver distraction. So the idea with this particular technology display is it will auto-recognize. You see how it recognizes my face right now? Now, let's take it one step further. Let me take my cell phone out. You see how it recognizes the phone? And now it's giving me a warning. Nice. Don't use your phone while driving. So it's a biofeedback for safety purposes in the automotive world. And it can be many other things. That's just for a technology generation. You have a big presence in automotive? Yes, actually it's a really, really hot area for us right now. We're one of the top suppliers to the automotive world. All of the world? Yes. For every continent of car makers. And there's so many innovation happening with the electric cars. Yes. And you have to supply what they want for two, three years in the future. Yes. And again, this whole automotive space is really an exploding area for us that we've jumped near the top. This is a haptic feedback. You see here when I touch it? It gives both optical and physical feedback. That's just feather touch. And then you can vary the strength of the feedback itself.  That's correct. That's correct. So the display that I showed earlier is based off the same technology. So we call it invisible display. In this particular case, it's a curved display. And let me show you here. So the idea again is I think all of the interior designers for automobiles are looking for that next design element. And part of that is making the active displays go away and making more of a cosmetic attraction. What we've added in this particular technology display is a privacy filter on the right hand side. So as I said earlier, driver distraction I think will be a key point going forward. You can change it on and off. Yes. If you look from this side, as if you were a driver, I can change the privacy of just this part. You have to look at it from an off angle. This angle. All right. Nice. Okay. Yeah. Nice. Yeah. So that one, the people's choice of awards. Very nice. Very nice. It could be automatic when the car drives. Could be. Yeah. I mean there's many ways to implement it. That's just one. This is a 17.3 inch. It's a LTPS display also with touch embedded. It's the PCAP sensor is embedded in the TFT cell itself. Very high contrast ratio of 1500 to 1, 10 point touch. High color gamut of 80%. Yeah. Next display is what we call our 15.46. It's an LTPS display, but it's T-shaped. And typically the way you would do that is you would combine two different displays. One here and one here with just a common cover glass. In this particular case it's one display. It also has touch embedded in it and very thin frame perimeters. So we're thinking in terms of free form shapes for new interior design. And you have a few years of experience doing free form. Oh yes. We've been doing it actually for quite a few years now. We've got circular many different shapes. The next is a 15.6 inch. It's very high resolution 4K by 2K. 3840 by 2160. Also very high contrast ratio of 1200 to 1. That could be the main display in a self-driving car or one of these electric cars. Could be. I mean it's very high resolution and they're kind of debating right now. How much resolution do you need? I mean for maybe passenger entertainment when you're looking at a movie or something like that, you would prefer that type of resolution. Driver doesn't necessarily need that. If I can choose an Uber with a 4K display in a backseat, I'll choose that option. Yes, of course. It would be fun to see. This is a 9.94 and it's a multi-fold OLED display. And so we're trying to bring OLED into the automotive market. There have been challenges with temperature, but we believe we can bring OLED into the automotive market. This is a 12.3 inch. It's called Accurus, which is an advanced contrast ratio. It's a dual cell display. So there are two cells that are bonded together. One as color content, the other is just basically a gray scale. And by doing that, by varying the gray scale portion of that, you can get high contrast ratio. That's really what you're trying to achieve. This is a different way of achieving something that's very high contrast ratio and very much the buzzword these days. It is an active matrix mini LED backplane. But this particular one is chip on glass driver. It is mini LED on glass substrate and LTP as glass substrate. The advantage of that is you can reduce the driver count as opposed to the other way of doing it, which is on a circuit board, which requires more drivers, up to like 10 drivers to do that. So very dynamic display. Right. Nice. Yeah, we could show this also. We'll have to come in here. Right. At display week, I've never experienced it before. Yes, it needs to be. So what this combines is it combines not only a privacy filter, but it provides the front surface of the display or the display itself vibrates a pretty sound. And it's very, very directional. So again, driver distraction. If you would want to create a sound field that's very, very directional, so only the passenger can hear it and the driver is not distracted. Is it active now? You can... Yes, you have to stand about right here. All right. Listen carefully. There. All right, I hear. Yeah, I just need to position myself exactly in the right place. Yes, it's very directional, as I said. Nice. So that's for the Uber driver who loves music and the passengers once quiet. Yeah. All right. So it's been a great show. Thank you. I'm glad you came by. And lots of people, it's back to normal, right? As normal as it can be, yes. And here at the front, there was this one. Yeah, it's another automotive demonstration. I think we can come in this way here. So as many people have already experienced, very wide format displays are becoming very common in the automotive world. This was an example of an aesthetic design that appears to be all wood and it makes the display disappear. But if you touch it, you see now the display comes alive. All right. Your car is saying hello. Nice. Yeah. That's awesome. You can see the information on it now. All right. Thanks a lot for showing everything at your booth. Glad you came by. Check out the WISE.  I think I'm saving over a thousand euros every year because I use it everywhere when I pay for stuff. You know, you want to pay for stuff in the world. So you can check out my longer video for where I explain some more why I think this is amazing and it's free. I'm going to sign up with my link down here and you can use it on your Android pay, your Apple pay. It's like a prepaid Visa debit card, right?

The next item of business is the debate on motion 10916 in the name of Shona Robison on thinner up and regeneration bill UK legislation. I invite members who are pushing to speak in this debate to press the requests and speak buttons as soon as possible and I call on the cabinet secretary to speak to and move the motion for around seven minutes. Thank you. It is important that this Parliament gives a matter of consent to this bill. Careful ei lygau i ddylai refill. Meanwhile, the Bill focuses on matters that are not relevant to Scotland. Part 1 has direct implications. That is because it introduces powers for UK Government ministers to set targets for the 12 levelling up missions in Scotland and allows UK Government ministers to report on their progress, irrespective of the fact that six of those relate to devolved matters. Part 6 is relevant to the interests of this Parliament.

That means that we will retain our existing roles and responsibilities. Scottish ministers will have discretion to consider whether there is merit in replacing our well-established and well-understood environmental assessment regimes with environmental outcome reports. Further, the UK Government has committed to reinstating the Scottish Minister's regulation making powers for the electricity works environmental assessment regulations, which were rendered in operative due to Brexit and the loss of relevant enabling powers, and they have committed to doing so before the end of the current UK Parliament. That's important because these regulations play a key role in our consenting regime for offshore renewables and related onshore infrastructure, and I'm pleased that we have been able to come to an agreement on this. Nevertheless, we remain concerned about the potential for diverging environmental assessment regimes for the consenting of offshore renewable projects. This could have a significant impact on our collective ability to meet net zero commitments. Similarly, we have secured amendments to relevant provisions of part 3 so that the Secretary of State may only make provisions on planning data in Scotland with the consent of Scottish ministers. Whilst this is positive, I should be clear that the Scottish Government remains unconvinced at this time existing arrangements for environmental assessments would benefit from a major overhaul. It's unclear whether this new regime would be consistent with existing European requirements or move us away from the current high standards for environmental assessment. This will only emerge through secondary legislation. Furthermore, there is very little detail about how any new regime would operate in practice, the outcomes that it would be seeking to achieve and the benefits for both investors and regulators. Much more evidence and explanation would be required before we would be persuaded to make such significant changes in Scotland when considering any future changes that we will need to carefully consider the needs of our environment and the need to reach net zero. I have no concerns regarding relevant miscellaneous provisions within part 12 of the bill relating to the role of chartered surveyors and fees for post marine licence services. I must be clear however that this Government remains firmly opposed to part 1 of the bill relating to levelling up missions. This cuts across devolved responsibilities and therefore raises constitutional issues. I'm disappointed with the UK Government's approach to part 1. Scottish ministers must retain the right to disagree on the principle of a bill with a view to continued and productive negotiations. This is about good governance in the face of disagreement between mature Governments. Although we have a shared interest in reducing economic inequality, the route to that is not through setting targets in devolved areas. Rather, it is through redistributing economic and financial powers to Scotland in a way that allows this Government to deliver the activity that will effectively target inequality. Incidentally, important themes that are picked up in the Constitution and External Affairs Committee report published earlier today, which highlights the extent to which the approach of the UK Government is diminishing the role of this Parliament in scrutinising decisions taken by UK ministers in devolved areas without agreement. As written, the bill requires UK ministers to publish and report on objectives for levelling up missions, explaining when and how they will measure progress. Six of those missions, as I said, are in devolved policy areas, including transport, justice, education, skills, health and housing. Those are the responsibility of the Scottish Government and the Scottish Parliament under the devolution settlement. Though some efforts have been made to incorporate a degree of consultation with the Scottish Government in part 1, the provisions remain weak and vague. As it stands, there is no explicit definition or shared understanding of what would constitute meaningful consultation with Scottish ministers prior to UK Government ministers reporting on devolved matters in Westminster. UK Government claims that this part of the bill does not require consent from this Parliament, as it covers UK-wide targets, but we strongly disagree with that. As I have set out, the levelling up missions are clearly in devolved areas and so clearly within the responsibilities of this Parliament. In our view, the UK Government is failing to respect the role of this Parliament and the allocation of responsibilities set out in the devolution settlement. Consequently, I cannot recommend consent for part 1 of this bill. Though some progress has been made, the provisions still fail to recognise that the provisions on levelling up undermine the powers of Scottish ministers and, importantly, this Parliament. I move to the motion in my name. Thank you, cabinet secretary. I now call on Edward Mountain to speak on behalf of the Net Zero Energy and Transport Committee up to two minutes. Thank you very much, Presiding Officer. I'd like to speak as convener of the Net Zero Energy and Transport Committee to highlight part 6 of the bill on which the committee focused its scrutiny. This is an important part of the bill and relates to the environmental outcome reports. There are a new approach to the environmental assessment. The bill sets out a framework for environmental outcome reports, but much of the detail is left to subordinate legislation. In the bill, as introduced, this meant that broad powers were given to make regulations in devolved areas without the consent of the Scottish ministers. This prevented the Scottish Government from recommending consent to these provisions. The committee's report encouraged both Governments to agree an acceptable outcome to the matter, and the bill has now been amended so that the consent of the Scottish ministers is required before these powers are used in devolved areas. This ensures that the Scottish ministers can decide whether to agree to adopting the proposed environmental outcome report approach or to maintain the current approach. It is welcome that the Governments could reach this agreement. However, the committee has also highlighted the lack of clarity about the role of the Scottish Parliament in scrutinising proposed regulations in this area. Now that the agreement has been reached between the Governments, I would welcome any thoughts from the Deputy First Minister on how parliamentary scrutiny can be assured. I am sure that we can all agree that this Parliament is hugely important. It is a long-standing interest in the UK Government's levelling-up fund and UK shared prosperity fund. A particular interest is how effectively these funds will be spent in Scotland, the outcomes they will achieve and their impact on Scottish Government policy and spending plans. Notwithstanding the Deputy First Minister's comments, I focus on amendments made to part 1 of the living-up and regeneration bill. This part of the bill establishes a new statutory requirement for UK Government ministers to set and review levelling-up missions and report on progress. The amendments provide for UK ministers to have regard to any role of the devolved legislatures and to consult devolved authorities in relation to reviewing the levelling-up missions and any changes to mission progress methodology, metrics or target dates. The committee sought confirmation that the Scottish Government will work with Parliament to agree a formal and meaningful role by which Parliament and relevant committees can be consulted on any proposals to change emissions, revise a methodology, metrics or target dates of the levelling-up missions. We welcome the Deputy First Minister's confirmation that she is happy to work with the committee on a process when there is a clearer proposal from the UK Government on how it intends to carry out the duties set out in part 1 of the bill. We also welcome the Deputy First Minister's commitment that Scottish ministers will continue to operate on the basis of informing Parliament of significant policy developments, sharing relevant information where appropriate. The Scottish Government was consulted on the amendments to part 1, which relate in part to the Parliament, but it is disappointing that the Scottish Parliament and committee was not consulted. We would welcome a Scottish Government commitment that this will not be the case going forward and seek clarity from the Deputy First Minister in relation to the UK Government's annual report on progress in delivering the 12 missions that the Scottish Government will work with the committee to ensure that it is made available to Parliament for scrutiny. The 12 missions for the levelling-up fund matter since it will serve as a policy anchor across the UK Government, including in relation to funding to be spent in devolved areas. However, as a former finance cabinet secretary explained in 2021, it is extremely difficult for Scottish ministers to determine how best to use capital funding when UK ministers make decisions about capital spend that the Scottish Government is not cited on. We have written to the sector of state for levelling-up asking how UK ministers intend to comply with the duty in the bill to report on how they have had regard to any Scottish Parliament and Scottish Government role. The committee looks forward to working with the Scottish Government to develop a transparent process that supports parliamentary scrutiny. I thank the committees and clerks who have spent time looking at the legislative consent motion back in 2022 when it first came to this Parliament. It is a pity that this devolved Scottish Government has not shown the same respect to our committee system and the processes of this Parliament in the tablin of this motion today, as we have heard from two conveners just previously. Our committees are in place to provide the scrutiny, to provide reports to Parliament, some of which the devolved Government will like and use, and other parts of the reports that they will disagree with, but normally in a respectful way. It is disappointing that the committees have been treated in such a poor way over this LCM today. I welcome the fact that civil servants of both Governments have worked to ensure that the measures and benefits of this bill work across the whole of the United Kingdom. Council leaders from all parties have welcomed the additional funding from the UK Parliament and have been eager to put forward projects and proposals to access it, including SNP-led councils. That is indicative of the requirement of local authorities to access much-needed funding for capital and major infrastructure projects in their areas. The levelling up funds have led to significant projects, such as £27 million for a new ferry for Ferrail, £20 million for Peterhead regeneration, £20 million for Town Centre regeneration in Kilmarnock, £19.3 million in Fife, £80 million for Dumfries and Galloway, plus many, many more. All projects that will deliver economic growth, regeneration, business development and, most importantly, jobs. The money goes direct to our communities so that they can make significant improvements to benefit their areas. Real devolution in action. Presiding Officer, I am pleased that compromise has been found on many of the clauses within the bill in part 3, part 6 and part 12. Part 1 seems to be an area of disagreement between our two Governments, with one saying that it goes against devolution and the other saying that consent is not necessary for setting missions. Presiding Officer, if we only had committees of this Parliament that could give us a report back with a view. It is strange that we hear from the Cabinet Secretary that she feels that this is an attack on devolution at the same week that we have a freeze of council tax imposed on local government. We have seen the last week the value that this Government gives our local authority colleagues, ripping up the Verity House agreement before the ink is even dry. The agreement that clearly states that there should be no surprises, although, according to the Cabinet Secretary, the announcement to freeze council tax was not only a surprise to local government but also to the shadow cabinet. The changes proposed by UK ministers to secure legislative consent are clear that they will appropriately consult with devolved Administrations and Governments. The ministers will have regard to the devolved legislators and Governments in preparing statements on level and up missions. Other areas in this part of the bill ensure that Scottish ministers retain the options and controls that are required in the devolved context. Conservative colleagues will be voting to accept this motion this evening. In support of our valued colleagues in local government, we want to see more investment, not less. We want to see more devolution to our communities, and we support the efforts of any Government to do that. We will be supporting the consent motion today while recognising that the bill does legislate in devolved areas. Scotland and Britain need to get building to tackle our housing crisis. We can see why those powers are needed to align planning data and report on environmental outcomes, but the Tory's level and up bill is desperately lacking in ambition, as is thin as the white paper that came before it. Planning information must be used to drive improvement, but it will also expose that a decade of Government cuts have hollowed out local authority planning departments. We want to see planning that delivers more genuinely affordable housing, serves communities well and helps local businesses and town centres thrive. The bill will not do that for Scotland, but I do not think that the national planning framework does that either. It is welcome that the UK Government may only make planning data regulations after consulting the Scottish ministers, or if outside devolved competence. However, this is a bill that has been beset by Tory backbench rebellions and Government U-turns, which ended up seeing the Government ditch mandatory housing targets. In ditching those targets, the Tory Government let the SNP Government off the hook for failing to set their own all-tenure targets, targets that we desperately need to get back to building the 25,000-plus homes a year that we need. The UK Government's bill lacks ambition in its reform of compulsory purchase rules for England, hindering progress on development, delivering more houses and getting empty homes back into use. The measures in the bill will do little to address the deep inequalities that exist in Scotland and in every part of the UK. Major decisions will continue to be made in Whitehall, with communities forced to compete for small pots of money, handed out by Tory ministers, with many of the poorest areas missing out entirely. Something that seems to be a badge of honour for this current Tory Prime Minister. If I, the Government, will not deliver on the promise to level up the country, then Labour will. I said that we should be investing more, not less. I do not see how that can be reconciled with the UK Government's cut to the capital budget of nearly 7 per cent. That does not deliver more, it delivers less, the length and breadth of Scotland. I am pleased that we have been able to improve some parts of the bill and the concerns raised regarding part 1 do not detract from the progress made regarding parts 3 and 6. The amendments that we have negotiated to part 6 and by consequence part 3 recognise that the consent of the Scottish ministers must be sought before the UK Government makes decisions on devolved matters that will directly impact on Scotland's environment. To Edward Mountain, as a convener of the net zero committee, I am very happy to take forward the issue that he raised about parliamentary scrutiny, and I will ensure that that has progressed. I am grateful to the First Minister for giving way. Although I applaud the Government's success in securing the changes that have been made in the bill that protect devolution, would the First Minister agree with me that it would have been best for the Government not to have had to face that by having a United Kingdom Government that respected devolution in the first place? To John Swinney, that, as ever, he makes a very important point. The fact that we have had to negotiate at length in such detail over provisions that really should have respected devolution in the first place is a sign of the starting point of the UK Government. That is to try to remove and undermine devolution and to remove the powers, not just of the Scottish Government but of this Parliament. That should be something that every one of us on a cross-party basis should be very concerned about indeed. In terms of the UK Government's commitment to a Scotland Act Order reinstating specific powers of Scottish ministers rendered in operative following Brexit, it is an important step forward in the wider context of our Government's capacity to assess and regulate critical offshore renewables projects and related infrastructure, as I said earlier. With all the changes that have been made, I think that those are significant. However, we have to get back to the point of part 1. I thought that Kenny Gibson made some very important points around part 1 of the bill. His committee has asked for Michael Gove, as the Secretary of State for the Department of Leveling Up Housing and Communities, to provide evidence at this cross-party committee. I hope that that is something that the UK Government will respond to. As I said to Edward Mountain, I look forward to working with the FPAC committee around these matters as we take them forward.


Students, now we are going to see the Interrupted Time Series Design in Kozai Experimental Research. The first design which we are going to study in Interrupted Time Series Designs is Simple Interrupted Time Series Design. The speciality of this design is that there will be only one group, and there will be multiple observations before and after the treatment. That is, we will take an equal number of observations before and after the treatment. The speciality of this design is that we take multiple observations. So, their amount should be similar. That is, if you observe a group five times, and give them treatment, then we will observe them five times. Let me give you an example of this. For example, recently in the pandemic, COVID-19 cases were observed in a particular town in five months. How many cases were there in COVID-19? Based on that, it was decided that booster dose was required for COVID vaccination. After giving the booster dose, it was observed in five months that how many cases of COVID-19 have appeared there. So, over the long period of the time, we can see that the intervention was actually impacted or not. So, what we do in the second design is that we add one with our treatment group in the control group. So, what happens in this? We do multiple observations for both groups, for the treatment group and for the control group. And we deliver the treatment in the treatment group. And then we do the similar multiple observations in both groups. So, let me give you an example of this. For example, there are traffic accidents of motorcycles and cars. So, you want to see that in the last five years, in Lahore city, there have been so many traffic accidents of motorcycles and cars. So, based on this data, what do you do? We start a campaign in which you insure the compulsion that the bike riders insure the helmet. So, after this campaign, we see the trend of traffic accidents in the next five years. So, the treatment in this already exists, but it has been re-insured. So, what do you know about this? When you insure one thing, then after the treatment, the ratio of accidents decreases. In our third design, we take two different groups. We consider one as a control group and the other as a treatment group. We take these two as dependent variables. In this, we do the intervention in the treatment group and we do not do the intervention in the other group. For instance, if I give you an example of traffic accidents, then what do you do? We only consider the traffic accidents of the bike riders and we consider the heavy bikers and the small bikers, like CD70, Honda 125, and the heavy bikers, what are their accidents? So, from helmet wearing, how much has the trend changed? So, this can be seen in this way.
