weather in the forecast. Fingers crossed, things quieten down into | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
the weekend. Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
this is Outside Source. We're live in South Africa | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
at Wits University. It is a cool evening here in South | :00:14. | :00:23. | |
Africa. It wasn't earlier, we were in one of the biggest storms I've | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
ever seen. If you saw our earlier edition, you'll know what I'm | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
talking about. Fortunately the rain has gone away and we have some | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
brand-new graphics, meaning that in the same way, when I'm in the | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
newsroom I can convey to the information on the biggest stories | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
for you, I can now do the same thing wherever we are from. We are in | :00:46. | :00:53. | |
South Africa to talk about another spike in student protests. We've | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
seen three major university campuses shot over the last two weeks with | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
Brace, tuition fees, lack of equality and language all incredibly | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
potent subjects -- race. We'll also be taking a look | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
at migration in South Africa. We have covered it in Europe and | :01:13. | :01:22. | |
also here. 2 million foreign nationals live here, some of them | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
legally and some of them a large -- illegally. | :01:28. | :01:29. | |
We'll also bring you the rest of the days news from around the world. | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
We will be speaking to Katty Kay in Washington, DC because it is Super | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
Tuesday in America. 11 states are voting | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
for their Republican We will bring you up-to-date with | :01:42. | :01:48. | |
the campaigns. And we will be in the north of France. | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
Police in France have been clearing out | :01:54. | :01:55. | |
the migrant camp known as the Jungle for a second day. | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
Hundreds of migrants hoping to come to the UK have been living there for | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
months. As ever, if you have questions about | :02:02. | :02:23. | |
the stories we are covering, get in touch. I especially encourage you to | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
do that, we have a range of experts joining us. If you want the pressure | :02:28. | :02:36. | |
on the south African economy explained, if you want the | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
popularity of the ANC explained, these are good questions on which to | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
send questions. Let's give you more of an idea of where the Wits | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
Business School is. If I bring up the map you can see South Africa and | :02:48. | :02:52. | |
Johannesburg. This is by far the biggest city, one hour 's drive away | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
from the capital, Pretoria. You can see the Wits Business School is just | :02:58. | :03:06. | |
next to CBD, the town as the people from Johannesburg called it and we | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
are grateful that they have allowed us to be here so late. We have been | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
talking about student protests but to understand the last fortnight we | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
have to look at last year. In March there was a campaign to have a | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
statue of Cecil Rhodes taken down from the University of Cape Town and | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
the statute was removed. In October, an even bigger campaign, some say | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
the biggest youth movement in South Africa 's 1976 called Fees Must | :03:33. | :03:40. | |
Fall, protesting the fall in petition -- the rise in tuition | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
fees. The government responded and said that they would freeze the fees | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
for 2016. That sent a potent message to South Africans that action can | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
deliver change and that is why we have to look at last year in | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
examining what is happening this year. I have highlighted three | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
places for you. In the last fortnight, all have had to close | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
campuses, Major campuses because of protests and violence. In Mafeking | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
on Thursday, admission to buildings were burnt in clashes between | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
security forces and protesters. Next, looking at Pretoria, clashes | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
there as well. That has been over the use of Afrikaans as a language | :04:29. | :04:35. | |
for teaching. There is an Afrikaans must fall campaign and that has been | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
rejected. We must talk about Bloemfontein because there were | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
scenes of protest conducted by from early black students at the | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
half-time of a rugby match. White students came onto the pitch and | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
violence broke out, which continued in Bloemfontein for the rest of the | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
day. So, very significant moments. President Zouma responded very | :05:00. | :04:59. | |
swiftly, saying that. In a moment we will speak to one of | :05:00. | :05:14. | |
the most senior student activists in South Africa. Questions for him are | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
welcome. First, a couple of artistic to give us some context. -- a couple | :05:21. | :05:30. | |
of statistics. Of the South African university population, 78% of | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
students are black and 76% of the population are black, so the figures | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
match well. But of all of the household income generated in South | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
Africa, only 43% goes to black families, and that helps us to | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
understand why some black people feel that wealth is not fairly | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
distributed and opportunity is not given equally here in South Africa. | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
Let us make the first of our guests, the economic freedom fighters is a | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
political party set up by a former member of the ANC and it has been | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
closely attached to the Fees Must Fall campaign. Vuyani Pambo from | :06:14. | :06:23. | |
Fees Must Fall joins us. You achieved your goal in October, what | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
is the goal now? The goal is to free the majority of black people in this | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
country, free quality education, up to the attainment of a first degree. | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
You want everyone to have free education? That is what we are | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
saying, we don't want to get into the particularities of how to pay | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
for it. I suppose you have too. There is money there, the | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
re-privatisation of the government, the slimming down of the Cabinet, | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
cutting down on corruption, that would bring in the money. For me it | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
isn't a question of where the money is, it is there. There was a report | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
by the Minister released late last year saying that free education is | :07:09. | :07:11. | |
possible, there is no political will to do it. We had a live stream on | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
the Facebook page and you said it isn't just about the tuition fees, | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
you used the phrase decolonisation. But people who are not aware of what | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
that means practically, can you explain it? It will be difficult to | :07:26. | :07:36. | |
explain, it is a project of imagination because you are asking | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
colonial subjects to talk about the colonialisation. Are you still Alan | :07:43. | :07:54. | |
Knight? My language is not seen as intelligible -- are you still | :07:55. | :08:02. | |
colonised. What is your language? I don't think that's important. Our | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
language has been used as a polarising element, so I refused to | :08:08. | :08:13. | |
jump into it. I recognise myself to be all of these things. I'm | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
interested, is your vision for South African education that it would use | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
Afrikaans, or English at all? My brother, when we question the use of | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
Afrikaans over the other languages, innocence we are saying, we at | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
elevating the conversation -- in essence. This is saying that some | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
people matter more than others. How can some minority have its language | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
elevated above other languages that have a majority in other campuses? | :08:46. | :08:53. | |
Over the last month we have issued repeated requests to Wits caplet | :08:54. | :09:01. | |
University to provide someone to take part but they have not done | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
that and they have not sent a statement -- Wits University. I'm | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
sure you are hearing some criticism of Wits and wondering why there | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
isn't a response. We have been asking for this. Milton, every | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
person in a senior position from the University of South Africa I have | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
heard say they are prepared to listen to the students but sometimes | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
they are not very keen on their methods. Yes, that's very true. | :09:27. | :09:35. | |
What's happened is that the administration, the management at | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
Wits University led by Professor Adam had even have asked the | :09:42. | :09:44. | |
students not to vandalise the property of the university and they | :09:45. | :09:50. | |
have asked that political parties do not try and influence events within | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
campuses because there is an election coming up this year in | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
South Africa, a local government election. He thought that political | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
parties might try to take advantage of the current protests by | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
influencing their own issues which are actually outside the campus. | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
This isn't necessarily a criticism but by listening to the campaign of | :10:15. | :10:22. | |
Vuyani and Fees Must Fall, the cat is out of the bag, the message to | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
the South African students is that ibuprofen test, we might listen? | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
Very true. I covered the Fees Must Fall protest at the University of | :10:31. | :10:41. | |
Johannesburg and here at Wits and in Pretoria. The issues have gone | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
beyond purely educational matters. The students are raising big | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
societal issues. In other words, here we have to go back to history. | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
We are going back to 1994, when Nelson Mandela became the first | :10:59. | :11:01. | |
black president of South Africa after the end of apartheid. I guess | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
you always have to go back to history. We will carry on talking to | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
our guests and some of the students who have come out here to talk to | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
us. We are grateful to those who have come along. I was mentioning | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
1976, the youth movement, that is relevant because kids in Soweto were | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
objecting to being taught in Afrikaans and then in some cases | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
they were shot dead by the police for making that point. The issue of | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
language is incredibly potent in South Africa. We are going to bring | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
you a lot of coverage of South Africa because we are here in | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
Johannesburg but we are going to cover the rest of the news. | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
Americans are heading to the polls for Super Tuesday, | :11:45. | :11:46. | |
the biggest day so far in the Presidential primaries. | :11:47. | :11:48. | |
It is part of the campaign to select the two nominees. 11 states are | :11:49. | :12:00. | |
involved. Katty Kay is joining us. Is it fair to say that a knockout | :12:01. | :12:07. | |
blow could be delivered today, or is that overemphasising the portals of | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
Super Tuesday? Yes and no. I think by the end of this voting today, | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
when the millions of votes are tallied, we will have a pretty good | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
idea of who is going to be the Democratic nominee for the | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
presidency and who is going to be the Republican nominee. This is a | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
fantastically busy dying -- fantastically complicated situation | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
and therefore there is some wiggle room. Donald Trump could win every | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
state but still not had enough delegates to be able to say that he | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
has dealt a knockout blow to his rivals. The others might say that | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
technically they can get the votes to be the nominee and will stay in | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
the race. I don't know if anyone will drop out tonight because they | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
will cling to a bit of hope. I suspect we will have a fairly good | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
sense of whether Donald Trump is unstoppable on the Republican side | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
and the same for Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side. I guess it's | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
inevitable with the candidates and personalities before us, personality | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
is a big part of the election but can we pinpoint certain policies and | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
the positions of candidates on the issues that could swing things? I | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
wish we could! Every American election is about personality. The | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
president is elected almost as much on character and whether Americans | :13:29. | :13:31. | |
want him or her in their living room for the next four years as they are | :13:32. | :13:37. | |
on their policies. It is startling on the Republican side how few | :13:38. | :13:40. | |
policies Donald Trump has put forward. We are justified in talking | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
about him, he is the frontrunner by a long way. If you look at his | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
policies on economics, his foreign policy, his policy on social issues, | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
there is an incredible paucity of ideas, he hasn't put forward a | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
platform. He is running on his character and temperament. I always | :14:01. | :14:07. | |
like following US politics and I like following South African | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
politics and we are here with students from Wits University. Nadia | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
has a question for you. A lot of South African students have become | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
politicised, what role is the American youth playing in the | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
campaign? You'll have to repeat for me. Nadia was just asking the South | :14:24. | :14:33. | |
African students, they have become very politicised, are we seeing the | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
same amount US students? That's a great question, Nadia, because we | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
have seen with the Bernie Sanders movement on the Democratic side a | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
big turnout of young voters, like we did in 2008 with Barack Obama. The | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
big question going forwards, if Hillary Clinton is indeed the | :14:55. | :14:57. | |
nominee, will be young voters who turned out in their thousands for | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
Bernie Sanders go to the polls in November as well? Is this just a | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
Bernie Sanders movement, or is it a broad democratic wave of political | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
activism by young Americans? We won't know the answers until we have | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
a nominee. Thank you for joining us. You are in for a busy day. Full | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
coverage of Super Tuesday as the results come through on BBC News. | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
And thanks to Nadia for the question. In a few minutes we are | :15:30. | :15:39. | |
going to look at the issue of migration, a special report on the | :15:40. | :15:45. | |
lives of Pakistani 's and Zimbabweans in Johannesburg and how | :15:46. | :15:46. | |
they are treated by South Africans. The only remaining suspect | :15:47. | :15:56. | |
in the Omagh bombing of 18 years ago has been | :15:57. | :15:59. | |
released from jail. Seamus Daly was freed hours | :16:00. | :16:03. | |
after the case against him collapsed due to inconsistencies | :16:04. | :16:06. | |
in the evidence of a key witness. He's always denied involvement | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
in the Real IRA attack Relatives of the victims, | :16:11. | :16:12. | |
including Cat Wilkinson, whose brother, Aiden, | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
died in the bombing, have | :16:19. | :16:19. | |
vented their frustration This is a huge blow to my family and | :16:20. | :16:30. | |
to my mother who couldn't come here today. She came through the Hoey | :16:31. | :16:37. | |
trial and the trauma of those testimonies. We have no doubt that | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
the last time when Seamus Daly was here was in a bomb car and for him | :16:44. | :16:51. | |
to walk away a free man, my brother is in his grave, sometimes we have | :16:52. | :16:54. | |
to bring back the reality of what these people do. There is no | :16:55. | :16:56. | |
political will to bring these... This is Outside Source live | :16:57. | :17:07. | |
from the BBC newsroom. We're in a beautiful courtyard at | :17:08. | :17:15. | |
the Wits Business School in Johannesburg to talk about the | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
student protests that have gone on over the last couple of weeks. The | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
main story in South Africa is that the South African government and | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
universities a ai that they need to look at the issue and work out how | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
to hear the concerns of students while containing the violence that | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
the universities and government have been condemning. | :17:36. | :17:46. | |
BBC Brasil is focusing on new research into the Zika virus, | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
which suggests that it may be linked to a severe neurological disorder | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
Iran's president says the outcome of recent parliamentary elections | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
shows that its people want to end confrontation | :17:55. | :17:56. | |
Reformists made major gains in the vote. | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
This is footage of what appears to be a meteor in the sky over | :18:00. | :18:05. | |
Police received a large number of calls after a big, | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
Lots of interest in that on the BBC News App. | :18:10. | :18:22. | |
The two main global stories for the BBC today are Super Tuesday, which | :18:23. | :18:28. | |
we were just talking about, and what has happened in Calais in the north | :18:29. | :18:33. | |
of France. For the second day, police have been tearing a part of | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
what is known as the Jungle camp, a former settlement where many | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
migrants are living and wait to see if they can reach the UK. I can | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
bring you the graphic. Calais is in the north-east of France, on the | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
coast. It has a big port with passenger ferries to the UK. The | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
camp is close to the port and close to the tunnel that goes underneath | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
the English Channel. The proximity of the camp to the main routes to | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
the UK isn't a coincidence. The BBC's reporter has been there all | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
day long and this is the latest report. | :19:11. | :19:18. | |
A second day of demolition in the camp and you can see the debris | :19:19. | :19:25. | |
everywhere. Bulldozers have been collecting the pieces of wooden | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
crates, people's homes and dumping them in large bins. They have picked | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
up -- packed up for the day and have been followed by the riot police. | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
There has been little resistance to the the militia in squads compared | :19:41. | :19:46. | |
to yesterday however there has been protest -- to the demolition squads. | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
One woman threatened to cut her wrists, she was taken away by the | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
police. Still, for many people who are in this camp, this miserable, | :19:55. | :20:01. | |
wet, dirty place represents their best chance, they believe, of | :20:02. | :20:04. | |
reaching the UK because of its proximity to the port of Calais. So | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
they are resisting attempts to move them into the official accommodation | :20:10. | :20:13. | |
inside the converted shipping containers. Many of the people to | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
whom we have spoken here have tried multiple times to board trains to | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
the UK. The border is closed to them. We have seen people picking | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
through the burnt out rubble of their homes, trying to collect | :20:30. | :20:39. | |
pieces of the Koran. We have seen tension but none of the violence | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
from yesterday. Darkness is falling, the police have left, some of them | :20:43. | :20:49. | |
on the periphery are armed with batons and CS gas, prepared for | :20:50. | :20:57. | |
trouble just in case. The number of migrants and refugees coming into | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
Europe is a story we have covered extensively. We haven't though | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
looked in detail at migrants and refugees coming into South Africa. | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
We have a special report in the back half of the programme in about 25 | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
minutes. Normally at this time we will do our business, number of | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
global stories. One global business story directly affects South Africa | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
because there was a huge announcement from Barclays Bank | :21:25. | :21:28. | |
earlier, plenty of speculation about it in advance but today it confirmed | :21:29. | :21:34. | |
it will except Africa. Barclays has been in Africa since 1925. It is a | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
decision of huge significance. The boss of Barclays Bank explained why | :21:41. | :21:48. | |
he took the decision. The reality is that the new revelatory environment | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
means we carry 100% of the liabilities of owning Barclays | :21:52. | :21:58. | |
Africa. We only owned 62% of Barclays Africa, the rest is owned | :21:59. | :22:01. | |
in the public market in Johannesburg. 100% of liability, and | :22:02. | :22:08. | |
62% of the earnings, which truncates the possible returns for Barclays | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
shareholders on earnings in South Africa. It is a difficult decision | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
-- in Africa. The Barclays brand is as strong in Africa as it is in the | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
UK but we have to make some difficult decisions if we are going | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
to get Barclays into a focused, clear, compelling business model | :22:29. | :22:30. | |
that generates returns for our shareholders. Given that we are at | :22:31. | :22:38. | |
the Wits Business School it wasn't hard to find someone who wanted to | :22:39. | :22:42. | |
give us their analysis of this announcement from the South African | :22:43. | :22:51. | |
perspective. It has been in the news for more than a month, it is | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
something that the market had anticipated. It didn't come as a | :22:57. | :23:04. | |
surprise when they make the announcement that they are leaving | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
Africa. It doesn't feel good but I think there could have been | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
fundamental issues in forming the decision. To begin with, The | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
Barclays Starc has been on a downward spiral -- stock. At one | :23:18. | :23:26. | |
point it was 205 South African Rand, and today it is going for about 140, | :23:27. | :23:35. | |
a fall about 30%. So it has been in decline. This announcement from | :23:36. | :23:42. | |
Barclays is relevant to all of Africa but it is being felt keenly | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
in South Africa where the economy is in the words of the Finance | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
minister, in crisis. Let's show you the GDP figures, they came out | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
today. Growth of the economy was 1.3%, down from 1.5% in 2014. The | :23:56. | :24:02. | |
projection for this year, 0.9%. This economy is feeling the squeeze. I'm | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
going to talk to Northern about the reasons why. Sorry to interrupt you. | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
Milton, help us understand, for people who are not following the | :24:13. | :24:17. | |
South African economy, what are the factors putting it on the back foot? | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
Number one, there are domestic factors. Currently there are | :24:22. | :24:28. | |
allegations that the president is at loggerheads with the new finance | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
minister. They are calling it wore on the front page of one paper. It | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
is pretty interesting because late last year the president had an | :24:39. | :24:41. | |
amazing reshuffle where he had three finance ministers in a matter of | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
days -- war. Eventually the man who used to be the finance minister in | :24:48. | :24:50. | |
the first time of President Zouma came back and now he is the current | :24:51. | :24:57. | |
finance minister -- President Zuma. It sounds like politically the | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
president is many more towards the revenue and services guy. You wait | :25:03. | :25:07. | |
for ages for one to come along and you have three in a week! Let's talk | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
about junk status because I have been here for a few days and | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
everywhere I turn, especially the business pages, everyone is worried | :25:16. | :25:20. | |
about South Africa being given junk stating is that map junk ratings by | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
the ratings agencies. It will make it difficult for South Africa to | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
borrow internationally and everything becomes more expensive | :25:30. | :25:33. | |
because of interest rates. If you own a clothing store and you don't | :25:34. | :25:36. | |
pay your credit card and suddenly you are about to be blacklisted and | :25:37. | :25:39. | |
that is what the country is worried about. Thank you for joining us. | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
When we were on air earlier, we were in the middle of an enormous | :25:45. | :25:48. | |
thunderstorm which was inconvenient for us but many people pointed out | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
that it is good news for the farming sector, experiencing its worst | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
drought in a century, so the rain is welcome from that point of view. | :25:58. | :25:59. | |
Back with you in a moment. It is the time of night when we look | :26:00. | :26:12. | |
at the world weather. Starting in the US, where the drama of Super | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
Tuesday has been matched by some pretty dramatic | :26:17. | :26:17. |
