Let's look through some of the main stories here in the BBC Newsroom. | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
In Ecuador the death toll continues to rise. | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
It's reached 350 today - the search is going on for survivors. | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
After weeks of build-up in New York Democrat and Republican | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
primaries voters will weigh-in on presidential | :00:30. | :00:30. | |
We will be live with Katty Kay in DC soon. | :00:31. | :00:47. | |
I'll have the latest from our Pop Up bureau in India. | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
The team go in search for snake charmers. | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
In a previous report they had featured a snake charmer. | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
As you can see here, they got lots of messages asking not | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
to cover snake charmers in India, - so they decided to find out why. | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
We will have to report for you shortly. And in sport, it is going | :01:04. | :01:12. | |
very well for Spurs in the Premier League, and we will have the latest | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
NFL as well. It's the New York | :01:16. | :01:22. | |
primaries tomorrow. We are in the strange situation | :01:23. | :01:23. | |
where the two frontrunners, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
both have leads that make them very hard to catch, but this still feels | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
like it's not a done Lets talk to Katty Kay, live from | :01:29. | :01:40. | |
the World News America studio in Washington, DC. Doing the maths, it | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
looks like neither of them can be easily caught. Does New York matter? | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
I know, we have kind of become statisticians. Every primary, no | :01:52. | :01:58. | |
matter how many they went by, they then have to win subsequent primary | :01:59. | :02:06. | |
is by X or Y percentage, so I now feel good data scientist! The reason | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
it matters on the Republican side is that if Donald Trump does very well | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
then the margin by which he has to win subsequent races declines, and | :02:15. | :02:20. | |
the same is true of Hillary Clinton. Hillary Clinton, to all intents and | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
purposes, it is very hard to imagine her not becoming the Democratic | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
party nominee. That is not true on the Republican side so really I | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
think this race is more interesting on the Republican side than the | :02:34. | :02:40. | |
Democratic side. I can see are Tweet to the side of you on the screen, | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
speaking about the Republicans. From Ted Cruz there, but are these issues | :02:45. | :02:53. | |
on tax deciding how people vote? No, this is one of those strange | :02:54. | :02:56. | |
campaigns were facts and issues have barely played a part. This Israeli | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
about personality and protest. A little bit like we have seen in some | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
European countries, frankly -- is really about. People are fed up with | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
existing politicians and feel they want to show the establishment they | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
have a choice, and that is to vote for some deals. Here is that irony | :03:16. | :03:20. | |
about New York, to some extent. Donald Trump is going around saying, | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
this is my time, I am a New Yorker, and I suppose he does own a lot of | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
New York. But he is not exactly a typical New Yorker, yet in a poll | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
that came out about an hour or so ago, it shows he is way ahead. He is | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
managing to reach out to poor working-class New Yorkers, this man | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
who built old towers over the city with his name emblazoned on them, | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
and they love him, for his success and his ability to say to the | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
Republican Party, we will do this my way. And a quick word on John. Why | :03:54. | :04:01. | |
is he still in this race? He cannot possibly win it? Cannot win on that | :04:02. | :04:04. | |
delegate count we were speaking about earlier, no numerical possible | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
different to do that. He is staying in because he hopes if it gets to | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
what is called a brokered convention at the end of July were no one has | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
won the majority, the Republican Party will suddenly look at Ted Cruz | :04:18. | :04:24. | |
and see, wow, this guy is wheelie Conservative on a whole range of | :04:25. | :04:26. | |
issues and we don't like him and we also do not like Donald Trump, so | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
perhaps they will put his do we make their weight behind him. It is a | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
long shot but I suppose at this point he thinks there is no point in | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
pulling out. We will have coverage of the New York primary is with | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
Katty Kay and all my other Washington colleagues as the day | :04:45. | :04:45. | |
goes on -- primaries. Dozens of people who were rescued | :04:46. | :04:46. | |
as they tried to cross the Mediterranean say that at least | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
500 others died when The migrants, from various | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
East African countries, say they set They are now being held by the Greek | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
authorities in Kalamata from where The Greek police are holding | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
the 41 survivors in this We haven't been allowed | :05:00. | :05:08. | |
to interview them on camera, but we have managed to speak | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
to them, and they have told us what is a pretty | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
extraordinary story. They say that last week they set off | :05:17. | :05:18. | |
from the port of Tobruk in Libya and they set off, 240 of them in one | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
boat, headed for Italy. But they say, in the middle | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
of the Mediterranean, the traffickers transferred them | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
from one boat to another much larger one, another wooden boat, | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
but that was already full of more than 300 people that were trying | :05:36. | :05:37. | |
to make it to Europe. They say in the middle | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
of the night, that boat capsized and just these 41 | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
managed to survive. They believe that 500 | :05:46. | :05:47. | |
other people drowned. What happened to these 41 people, | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
who include Ethiopians, Sudanese, Somalis and Egyptians, | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
they say that a Filipino cargo ship rescued them and then brought them | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
here to Greece, where, apparently, they initially were very, | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
very reluctant to get on land. They didn't want to be handed over | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
to the Greek authorities because they were so | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
determined to get to Italy. Now, I ought to add that no | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
officials have managed give any details about this disaster, which, | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
if true, will be one of the worst to have happened since this entire | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
migrant crisis began. Thanks to Will for that. No time for | :06:24. | :06:34. | |
the sport. -- now it is time. It is only one game being played | :06:35. | :06:41. | |
in the Premiere League today, Spurs are eight points behind | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
Leicester, with one game more The last time I looked, Hugh, they | :06:45. | :06:54. | |
were making the most of it? Yes, Tottenham Hotspur is enhancing their | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
title credentials backing up that 3-0 win in that they currently | :07:02. | :07:11. | |
Trent-mac. Harry Kane with the first stunning curling shot beating she | :07:12. | :07:20. | |
given -- currently lead Stoke. Dele Alli could also make a big | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
impression, his 10th of the season for Tottenham -- set-mac. Very | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
comfortable from Maurizio Pochettino's side as they look set | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
to close the gap at the top of the week to five points. That is going | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
well for them. And Spurs' main rival Leicester | :07:39. | :07:39. | |
was playing yesterday and there has been some controversy, | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
right? Where are we with what ban Jamie | :07:43. | :07:52. | |
Vardy Meggatt? During their 2-2 draw on Sunday, after he was sent off | :07:53. | :07:56. | |
after referee John Moss judged he had deliberately dived and was | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
trying to earn a penalty -- Jamie Vardy might get. He was given a | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
charge by the football Association today, this time of improper | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
conduct, could -- which could mean another one match ban so he could | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
miss the big trip to Old Trafford to face Manchester United in May as | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
well as their trip to Swansea. He would be sorely missed and Putnam | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
hot spas are going further ahead, Dele Alli again, now 4-0 to them -- | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
Tottenham Hotspur 's going further ahead. Jamie Vardy, if he does not | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
clear his charge, Leicester will need him. | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
Lionel Messi took his career goals tally to 500 this weekend. | :08:45. | :08:46. | |
BBC Sport posted this video earlier all about the achievement - | :08:47. | :08:54. | |
Unbelievable. You can see that on the BBC sport app. Over 80 goals in | :08:55. | :09:51. | |
one season! Here are the competitors | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
in the North Pole Marathon. The temperature was | :09:54. | :09:56. | |
around minus 40 Celsius. The venue was the Russian Barneo ice | :09:57. | :09:58. | |
base, which is drifting by the way. The other is that several snipers | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
were placed around the marathon circuit to protect the athletes | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
from polar bears. The winner clocked five | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
hours and 17 minutes. You could see that man holding a gun | :10:08. | :10:09. | |
there. This is a story that got posted | :10:10. | :10:16. | |
online just an hour or so ago and I spotted it in the Newsroom. Court | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
holds 1,000,000,000-dollar concussion settlement against the | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
NFL, and we know someone who likes to speak to us about this sport, | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
Anthonythasan Jesuthasan. This sounds like big news for the NFL but | :10:32. | :10:43. | |
I guess they knew it was coming -- Anthony Zurcher. Yes, but they can | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
put it behind them. The -- they said the court was my decision was fair | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
and it will include compensation for up to 20,000 players, ex-players, | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
retired players. That will help people who have played the sport and | :11:00. | :11:01. | |
suffered in one way or another because of that, but what about | :11:02. | :11:08. | |
people playing now, if in 15 years' time they have problems, can they | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
turn to the NFL and say, you all me some money? That is what critics say | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
is the flaw in this plan, that it does not cover current players. | :11:18. | :11:24. | |
Former players can be awarded up to $5,000 if they suffer from Lou | :11:25. | :11:25. | |
Gehrig's disease but current players, if they are done with their | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
career and they get early onset dementia or all timers, they will | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
have to file suit just like their predecessors did and challenge the | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
NFL, but at this point the NFL in point to certain concussion | :11:39. | :11:41. | |
protocols they have already established and new equipment, new | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
rules to help prevent somatic brain injury, so they may have a tougher | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
time winning in court. Anthony, go to speak to you. I expect our paths | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
Norcross tomorrow when we cover the New York primary. I just have a | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
tweet asking if we are going to cover the explosion on a bus in | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
Israel and the answer is, yes, we are. -- I expect our paths will | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
cross. Here is information just in. The Jerusalem bus to blast -- bus | :12:14. | :12:19. | |
blast was caused by a bomb. That is according to the Israeli police. I | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
spoke to a reporter at the scene and this is what you told me. I am right | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
at the scene where this blast happened during the evening rush | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
hour to stop if you look behind me there is an emergency vehicle | :12:33. | :12:41. | |
actually being used to tow away the last remains and we also have the | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
charred remains of another bus here and a car caught up in the | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
explosion. We understand the first bus had no passengers on board but | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
those injured were mainly on board the second bus and in the car here. | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
Traffic is now beginning to move to the scene but we have had dozens of | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
emergency service workers here, including bomb disposal experts, and | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
they are the ones who told the police it is now believed there was | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
a small explosive device planted on the back of this first bus, causing | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
this explosion. Very worrying for people here. There has of course, | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
over the past six months, been an upsurge in violence, a series of | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
Palestinian attacks on Israelis, but stabbings, shootings and car attacks | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
in the main. These will bring back bad memories of the attacks that | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
happened over a decade ago injury solum involving Palestinian | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
militants had targeted buses. On the left-hand side of your screen I can | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
see tweets coming in saying two seriously wounded, six moderately | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
wounded. Is that in line with what you're hearing from people I've | :13:46. | :13:49. | |
seen? That is right. We heard from the hospital that 21 people were | :13:50. | :13:55. | |
taken for hospital treatment -- from people at the scene. Two people were | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
said to be in a series condition. A few others in a moderate condition | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
and others lightly injured. Thank you very much for that. I was | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
speaking to her again just a little while ago on the number of people we | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
thought were affected. I think one of the figures she said has since | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
changed so I will update that for you in the next few minutes. Also, | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
in about five minutes or so I will play you this report from the BBC | :14:21. | :14:27. | |
Pop Up team, in India looking at snake charmers and why some Indians | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
are uncomfortable with their association with it. | :14:31. | :14:39. | |
Police here in the UK are appealing for information after an aircraft | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
was hit by what appears to be a drone. | :14:47. | :14:54. | |
As it came into land at Heathrow yesterday afternoon. | :14:55. | :14:56. | |
The plane was at about 1700 feet when it was struck. | :14:57. | :14:59. | |
The police are asking for members of the public to look out | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
Pilots have been warning about this for a long time, as the BBC's | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
transport correspondent Richard Westcott explains. | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
For months, pilots have warned it would happen. | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
After 40 near misses last year, it seems a drone has now hit | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
an aircraft coming in to land, this time at Heathrow. | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
The damage was minimal, but it could have been much worse. | :15:19. | :15:21. | |
We're pretty sure that if a drone went down a jet engine, | :15:22. | :15:23. | |
Now, there is lots of research about bird strikes on aircraft, | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
and some people are saying, well, you can use that information, | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
but that is just lazy, because birds are not made | :15:31. | :15:32. | |
of plastic and metal, and they do not have big | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
metal batteries in them, so we think if that battery ends up | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
This is the research he's talking about. | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
For years, they have tested the impact of | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
Now there is a call for similar research | :15:44. | :15:46. | |
It is estimated around a million drones were sold around | :15:47. | :15:50. | |
It is estimated around a million drones were sold around | :15:51. | :16:20. | |
Many thousands of those were in the UK. | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
Now, if you buy one in a shop you should get a leaflet telling | :16:24. | :16:26. | |
Buy a kit online, put it together yourself, you may not be told. | :16:27. | :16:31. | |
You can be fined or even face prison if you break the drone rules, | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
but is enough being done to warn people? | :16:35. | :16:36. | |
At best, you get a piece of paper with the rules on it. | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
No one educates you, tells you what the risks | :16:41. | :16:42. | |
are and what the fines and penalties will be if you break it. | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
It is just a sales process, not an education process. | :16:47. | :16:48. | |
Police are investigating the possible drone strike | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
at Heathrow, but despite dozens of near misses recently, | :16:51. | :16:52. | |
just a handful of owners have ever been prosecuted. | :16:53. | :16:54. | |
It's claimed that poorer families in England are losing out | :16:55. | :16:56. | |
in the competition for places at the best primary schools. | :16:57. | :16:59. | |
Today parents have been finding out where their children | :17:00. | :17:01. | |
The new research from the education charity, Teach First, | :17:02. | :17:04. | |
says children with poorer backgrounds are four | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
times more likely to be at less successful schools. | :17:07. | :17:08. | |
It suggests recruiting more highly qualified teachers in poorer areas, | :17:09. | :17:10. | |
where schools face more challenges because of greater levels | :17:11. | :17:12. | |
This is Outside Source live from the BBC Newsroom. | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
Still coming from Ecuador where rescue workers are pulling people | :17:17. | :17:26. | |
from the rubble. The death toll from the weekend's earthquake is at | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
around 350. Katty Kay will be back next | :17:30. | :17:30. | |
on World News America - they have a special report looking | :17:31. | :17:39. | |
ahead to the New York Primary. And if you're here in the UK - | :17:40. | :17:42. | |
The News at Ten will have the first in a series of reports looking | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
at this week's 90th A big story here in the UK | :17:47. | :17:48. | |
is the release of a major document from the Government detailing why | :17:49. | :17:57. | |
a vote to leave the European Union Needless to say this | :17:58. | :18:00. | |
is being heavily contested by those We can agree that how | :18:01. | :18:09. | |
these figures came about Here's the BBC's political editor, | :18:10. | :18:22. | |
Laura Kuenssberg pointed out -- The headline statistics | :18:23. | :18:38. | |
from the Government are that leaving That's 6% of GDP and | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
and would mean a cut In the high 30s, if you're speaking | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
about pounds. BBC News has a reality check | :18:47. | :18:56. | |
team working on this - The way they have worked this out in | :18:57. | :19:07. | |
this meaty 200 pages of analysis is that they have worked it out in | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
terms of how much it would cut from GDP then they have divided that by | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
the number of households, so the answer you get is GDP per household, | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
the total amount produced in the country, the loss from that, then | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
that is divided among the number of households and that is how you get | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
to this figure you see in the poster behind George Osborne of 4003 other | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
pounds. How do they come up with the figure that GDP will be hit --? 4000 | :19:33. | :19:45. | |
and ?3000 -- 4000 ?300 that is about what would happen with the | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
particular effects they are speaking about from leaving the EU -- ?4300. | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
The problem is the poster behind George Osborne speaks about a cost | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
to each family of ?4300 so they are confusing GDP per household with | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
household income, which is not the same thing at all. One thing leads | :20:02. | :20:05. | |
into another. It is not on a pound for pound basis so I am appeared on | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
day one, poster one, they have the numbers are that wrong. And the tax | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
number, 51 billion? Does this follow from the initial 6%? Yes, and it | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
depends how you feel about economic forecasting, economic modelling, how | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
you feel about that. If you're not interested in economic modelling | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
influencing your decision, that is a perfectly fair decision. It is a | :20:29. | :20:31. | |
long way out to be making these sorts of decisions and there are big | :20:32. | :20:34. | |
assumptions made on the way, so that is fine, then look away and come | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
back when we speak about another issue. If you're interested in | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
economic forecasting, this is basically a sensible economic | :20:44. | :20:45. | |
forecast. The figures, the headline figures, they are not terribly | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
important. The important thing is the Treasury is coming out and | :20:50. | :20:52. | |
saying, we think this will be considerably bad thing for the UK | :20:53. | :20:57. | |
economy, and sort of putting some figures to it as well. And the | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
reality check team from BBC News are posting regularly online so if you | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
use this BBC news at our website you will see them help and us cover the | :21:07. | :21:09. | |
campaign as we build up to the referendum in June. | :21:10. | :21:24. | |
As promised, I have the latest report from the BBC Pop Up team in | :21:25. | :21:30. | |
India. In a previous report they had | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
featured a snake charmer. As you can see here, | :21:36. | :21:38. | |
they got lots of messages asking not to cover snake charmers in India, - | :21:39. | :21:41. | |
so they decided to find out why. Snake charmers have been | :21:42. | :21:44. | |
banned from city streets. The mouse that comes | :21:45. | :21:48. | |
with the laptop or the computer, I think that is what we | :21:49. | :21:50. | |
are more known for than snake The world media has to show | :21:51. | :21:53. | |
all aspects of Indian culture. Saw what happened was the first | :21:54. | :22:18. | |
video we created for the team's project here in India had a shot of | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
a snake charmer in it and, truthfully, I did not realise how | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
insensitive the image was -- saw what happened. Sign it yes, it is | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
incensed as. Someone told me there is a village near Delhi were a snake | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
charmer still lives, but in abject poverty and without there are | :22:40. | :22:46. | |
One of the challenges we are facing is that we have to keep our culture | :22:47. | :23:37. | |
and we have to maintain with the pace of modernisation as well. We | :23:38. | :23:44. | |
have to change our identity also. We have to create a new brand, because | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
the way India has been branded outside, as the country of snake | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
charmer is... Does the Government have irresponsible tutors are poor | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
at these unwanted groups that once meant something to the nation | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
culturally -- does the government have a responsibility to these | :24:01. | :24:07. | |
unwonted groups. It was basically about animal rights and slowly we | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
have started banning the use of animals, wild animals, for | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
entertainment, so that is why it has been banned. It is not that we were | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
trying to... Things are actually changing on the ground and it was | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
part of that change process. TRANSLATION: | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
A few minutes ago I was telling you is really police are saying it | :24:32. | :24:39. | |
device caused an explosion on a bus in Jerusalem earlier -- Israeli | :24:40. | :24:41. | |
police. Let me bring you the latest figures on those injured. Police are | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
reporting 21 people have been injured and medics are reporting at | :24:48. | :24:51. | |
least two have been hurt seriously. Of course if there are changes to | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
that story you will hear about that here from BBC News. Thank you very | :24:56. | :24:58. | |
much for watching. I will see you | :24:59. | :24:59. |
