Hello, welcome to the programme. It is one hour of global news live from

the BBC newsroom. We will hear from Canada, Philippines, China and

Westminster. We will start was developing from Brazil. The vote to

impeach President Rousseff has been annulled. We will explain what all

this means. Finally, better news from Canada on the wildfires. The

weather is hoping to slow the spread but there is still a wide area

affected. We will bring you the latest. David Cameron says peace in

Europe could be jeopardised if Britain votes to leave the EU.

Needless to say, the League campaign disagrees. We will get the details

on that. We will focus on China and its ambitions to become a

footballing superpower in 2016. We will hear from our correspondent on

that. And I will update you on the general election in the Philippines.

It looks at the next president will be a man whose nickname is the

Punisher. -- it looks like the next president

will be a man whose nickname is. Let's begin with news that came into

the BBC a few hours ago. Reuters carrying the story that President

Rousseff in Brazil says the impeachment process has been

suspended. You might remember the Brazilian Senate has said the vote

on impeachment on Wednesday. It was widely seen as very likely that she

would lose. Few abusers banded. But today, the acting Speaker of the

Lords Brazil's Congress and all the impeachment and has called for a new

vote in the chamber. Let's bring in our correspondent, who has been

helping us explain the law -- all of this. Are we getting any closer to

understanding what might play out in the next few days?

In the last few seconds, the Senate has decided and it clear that it is

going to go ahead and proceed with this vote against President

Rousseff. They bought that will probably lead to heart Phil

impeachment trial. That places the Senate at complete odds with the new

Speaker of the Lords house of Congress. The lower house of

Congress ruled today that the impeachment process should be

annulled. We have a disagreement here. It underlines the confusion

and Brazilian politics at the moment. When I spoke to the

president last week in Brasilia, she fully expected to have to be

suspended this week because she realised the Senate would be voting

to begin an impeachment trial against her. On pretty small

charges, that she somehow manipulative the budget to hide the

state of the deficit. What we have got is a country in chaos,

politically and economically. There is a sense that no-one is in charge

in Brasilia and that is not tell Brazil and certainly as image

overseas lytic Leander economically, with very poor market reaction out

what is in Brazil yesterday. Who might have the power to decide

which houses correct? In chronological terms, there was a

very fiery, passionate and divisive debate in the law house of Congress

one month ago in which the law house voted overwhelmingly to pass this

impeachment process onto the Senate. It is in the Senate now. We are due

a vote in the Senate this week which will probably begin in a Phil

impeachment trial. That is a process. The law house has passed

the old procedure on to the Senate. Now there is an interim chair in the

lower house, who said there were serious irregularities in that vote

in the house of Congress one month ago. He said the whole thing must

have been once again. To be honest, no-one knows what will happen now. I

imagine this will involve the Supreme Court of Brazil at some

point in the next few days. The Supreme Court will probably be

called in to make a decision. But again, the country is completely

paralysed. There is a huge economic crisis. Brazil is in recession.

Inflation rates well over 10%. Rising unemployment. A rising

discontent on the streets of Brazil. And division between the

pro-government and antigovernment camps. This does not help with all

the chaos today. Thank you for explaining that.

You know where we are in the next hour if the story changes again.

This is complicated and important. If you watch this programme

regularly, you will know that we can access everything coming through the

BBC News, including use wires. Here is an important story from Iraq. The

Pentagon says any strike by a US-led coalition has killed a senior

Islamic state official in Iraq. Coming from the Pentagon. More

details on this. It is thought to be a man who has appeared in propaganda

videos for IS. What is significant here is that the group controls a

province in Iraq although the Government has taken back some

important towns. This would be a major blow against IS in the region,

with Americans saying they killed a senior IS figure. We will update you

on that as and when new information comes in. Most about the UK's

referendum of well to stay in note of the year. It takes place on June

23. Arguments from both sides cranked up further today. Here is

David Cameron first of all why he thinks a vote to leave good in

danger be singular. -- endanger peace in Europe. Isolationism has

never served this country well. Whenever we turn our back on Europe,

we come to a problem. We have always had to go back in and that a higher

cost. The rows of white headstones and lovingly tended were -- war

cemeteries stand is testament to the price this country has paid in

restoring peace and order together. The EU has helped wreck inside

countries that were once had each other's fraught for decades. --

reconcile countries. We have a fundamental interest in maintaining,

burgers in Europe to avoid future conflict between countries. That

requires British leadership and for Britain to remain a member. That was

one side of the argument. Use the other. Boris Johnson is the former

Mayor of London but still one of the high-profile members in the League

campaign. Unisys response to the Prime Minister. -- Leave campaign.

If you're looking what we were promised and what we got, the

Government should be campaigning on the Leave site today. We were told

many times by the Prime Minister, Home Secretary, the Chancellor that

we would get real changes to the law on free movement so that you needed

to have a job lined up before you could come here. We have got no such

change. We were told that we would get a working opt out from the

Charter of fundamental human rights. Which, by the way, gives a European

court the power to determine the application of the 1951 Convention

on refugees and asylum, as well as child protection and victims'

writes. Got nothing. That is Boris Johnson's view. You watching in the

BBC News Channel in the UK will take a keen interest on this. Lots of you

watch this programme the European Union. This is the reason why a lot

of people in the UK are paying attention. You can see this Twitter

account saying... Either quitting or commanding the right to have the

kind of say in which we are seeing Britain is having on June 23. This

goes far beyond the UK. The coverage of the story today has been

dominated by this issue of security. We have pulled together some of the

politicians and former politicians who have been weighing in.

Instability is already in Europe. Look at what is happening on the

continent. Some of those nationalist tendencies that led us to conflict

in the past been recreated. The rise of extremist parties. Why? Because

of the lack of control of migration across the continent. A shrunken

Nato now depends, as Mr Obama has said, in a twin bill Nato, strong

United States and united Europe. If we retain that, Nato is stronger.

The European Union is stronger. And our enemies, or those who prowl

round borders and take advantage of any opportunities, like flooding

your bidding, will be weakened. When Europe is democratic and

co-operating together, it will be peaceful. What is happening inside

this European Union is without anyone's consent being given and

they are creating a new state. The Prime Minister was right for us to

think about the history as we come up to the anniversary of the battle

the Somme, and contrast the stability in Europe with the

instability and what in the Middle East. It is still over one month

ago, but it had the feeling of things moving up and you ought to

today. Here is our correspondent explaining

why that might be. You can feel things are hotting up.

We have talked about this for it seems like weeks. But local

elections are out of the way. The gloves are off. This is the real

thing and you can sort of feel the finishing line. To get your point,

this idea of talking about the future, that still plays better for

the remain campaign. David Cameron is not saying, look, there's got to

be worn in a few weeks' time. The remain campaign, led by David

Cameron says, and the freaky things, the economy, the voice that Britain

has in the world on issues like security, you kind of know what you

have got now that you're in the European Union. Who knows what might

happen if we left? The balance of this problem on favourability, the

advantage, if you like, lies with those who want to remain.

I was surprised at this stage because David Cameron very

successfully focused on the economy relentlessly in the general

election. He said that they are more reliable than the Labour Party on

this issue. Isn't the economy in the end likely to be his most successful

card in persuading voters to come his way? Yes. I could leave it at

that. It absolutely, yes. Going beyond the one word answer... All

the focus groups and opinion polls suggest that to the extent that

anybody since got through to voters who have been worried about the

Premier League season, well to have a barbecue, the message that has got

through is a sense amongst voters that we would be put and worse off

if we left European Union. For the Brexit supporters, the message that

resonates best with them is that if you want to get a grip with

immigration and baubles, you need to vote to leave. If that is one of the

main stories in the UK, this has become one of the other ones. It

came in a couple of hours ago. That is the deal with the story in the

Philippines. But I was going to mention the fact that the

long-awaited report into the Iraq war in the UK is going to be

published on Wednesday, July six. We understand security checks have been

done and this report is very long. 2.6 million words. There will not be

any reductions at all. The date has been agreed between the enquiry's

head, St John Chilcot and David Cameron. We can be sure David

Cameron is glad to have announced a date. -- Sir John Chilcot. It has

taken a long time for this report to be published for public consumption.

In a moment, we will be live in Canada. The wildfires very much

continue, burning across a huge area. They have slowed down, which

is good. We will get an update from CBC News in a few minutes.

A man has been jailed today for the murder of the British teenager -- a

British teenager 32 years ago. Christopher Hampton was caught

after police matched DNA from the clothing of Melanie Road,

who was 17 years old, to a member of Hampton's family

on the national database. It is when we finally went to the

Court in Bath and I saw this man standing. It is not a man, he is a

monster. How could he do that? I realise that his wife and daughter

were sitting behind me. Both blonde hair. The same is Melanie. How could

he do that to somebody and then live with people like that, with them not

knowing? I don't know. Do you? It hurts beyond repair.

We are live as ever from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story comes from

Brazil, where the impeachment process against the president has

been thrown into doubt following a legal challenge. Let's look at the

main stories from BBC World Service. First of all, Syria's military says

it is extending a ceasefire in the city of Aleppo and its rural areas

448 hours, from midnight on Tuesday. This game a couple of hours before

the current local ceasefire was set to expire. BBC Arabic is covering

that. Austria's reader has resigned. Here's been the Chancellor since

2008. His party suffered a heavy defeat in the first round of

presidential campaigns last month. Voters are concerned about high

unemployment. That is on BBC World Service radio. Julian Assange has a

new pet kitten. You can see it there. It was a gift from his

children. Here's been living in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London from us

for years and years avoiding a tradition to Sweden. The kit and

perhaps inevitably now has its own Twitter feed. You can get more

details on the BBC News app. I do have better news on the

wildfires in Canada. As we have reported here, they have been

burning primarily in the province of Alberta for over a week now. But

some rain and favourable winds have seen and slow. Nonetheless, they

continue to affect an area of over 1600 square kilometres. One place as

perhaps been hit more than any other. Fort McMurray is a city where

in the region of 20% of homes have been destroyed. If we bring up some

of the stills at the come into the BBC newsroom, you get an idea of the

scale of the destruction. This city is home to around 100,000 people and

all of them left when the authorities ask them to evacuate.

The pictures give you an idea of the scale of the destruction. So does

this. This is a satellite image taken on me the third. This is a

satellite image of exactly the same area. -- May third. You can see how

much of the Earth has been scorched by the fires. Let's get a media

update. Cameron Mackintosh is with CBC News near Fort McMurray. Thanks

for joining us live on the BBC. Can you give us an idea of the scale of

the emergency operation under like the skill of the file itself. It is

huge. Take a look over my shoulder. You will see that there will be a

helicopter coming into the frame. We are seeing dozens upon dozens of

these helicopters doing this over and over again. We have been

standing here for a few days now. These helicopters have been coming

down, they take ). I know that it looks small but it is quite large.

Relative to the size of the forest and the fire, it really doesn't seem

like much. It takes so much energy to pick-up a little bit of water.

Flight over then drop it on a Hot Spot and then they do it again. We

have seen it time again. Meanwhile, we keep seeing big players coming up

here and there. Just when they knock something down, something else comes

back up. That is the type of effort going on now. Meanwhile, Aaron Fort

McMurray, hundreds of firefighters are fighting this thing on foot. --

around Fort McMurray. Going into trees with owes -- with hoses. This

is a monumental effort to put back a fire that they have come to call,

quite simply, the Beast. It is hard, gruelling work. The city of Fort

make money itself seems to be out of danger. -- Fort McMurray. Is the

weather still favourable for firefighters? Yes, and that has been

a problem in last 24 hours. It is overcast and the sun has gone away.

We don't have the heat we had a couple of days ago. Record high

temperatures for this area, only plus parties. Now we're 10 degrees.

-- plus 30s. The wind is blowing in the right direction and there is a

lot of moisture in the air. It is more humid. That helps with the

firefight. The one thing that we need here is rain. Although the

clouds above me as somewhat overcast and a bit dark, there is no rule

significantly in the forecast for the foreseeable future. We

appreciate your help in covering the story. Thank you.

You can find the Reporter online on his updates and social media. We'll

talk about the latest trademark battle in China. We talked about

Apple last week. Facebook this this time. There has been a ruling that

her product maker there cannot name its company Facebook. Over to a

reporter. One of these that, it is obvious that you could not call a

drink Facebook. But it is a work in China? Are the rules different?

Especially considering what happened with Apple. Apple was in a similar

situation and it wanted to protect its brand, the iPhone. But it could

not do that and lost. Now you can find wallets, iPhone wallets in

China. A drink company wanted to do the same thing with Facebook and it

called one of its soft drink Facebook. But in China, they said,

no, it is not allowed. Part of that has to do with Facebook's charm

offensive. CEO Mark Zuckerberg was recently in China and they are

really trying to do a lot of outreach. Facebook is not viewable

in China. Some people were wondering if perhaps that outreach was able to

protect their name in China, unlike Apple, which did not have the same

protection. Let me ask you about another story. When you bring up

some social media. This at all times is saying... It is about the owner

of a very well-known coffee chain. Tell us about the owners. The owners

are a German company who own several coffee brands.

Now they have Krispy Kreme. What usually interesting is the fact that

if you look what the company is buying up, they are buying up things

that are really starting to grow. Things in the fast-food industry,

but not anything in the fast food industry. Is breakfast items. That

is a real growth area. It makes very much sense that you have coffee and

then you see them picking up the doughnut maker, Krispy Kreme.

Although they will still run as independent stores right now. You

knows what might happen down the line? Especially since we have seen

that in terms of fast food, really the area of growth is in breakfast.

Thank you. Good to have you on the programme. We will speak you very

soon. I wonder what Facebook drink would

taste like? Perhaps you could help me out. I wanted to show you this.

The people look wild they did the Panama papers leak have put the

whole lot online. This website has just been launched. A searchable

database with more than 360,000 names of individuals and companies

who used anonymous shell firms. The Panama papers leaks have already put

a huge amount of focus on tax havens. In fact, they will be an

event later on in London on Thursday. An anti-corruption Summit.

Taxis will sell me come up. In advance of that, about 300 prominent

economists published a letter calling for more tax transparency.

We asked by corresponded to doctors about this. We wanted to understand

if the argument is about models, the right thing to do, or what is best

economically. It is kind of driven, to some

extent, by the economics of it. The idea it is... There is no economic

benefit in having tax havens. That they really only achieve great

savings for individual rich people and multinational companies. But

ultimately, it is a bad thing economically. Clearly, there is an

underlying ethical message there as well. They make the point very

strongly that it is particularly, in proportionate terms, the poor

countries who suffer the most from lost taxis. A figure of 170 million

billion dollars a year. They accept that countries across the world lose

from the existence of tax havens but they are very much emphasising the

point that poor countries suffer more.

It is not hard to imagine why a country which is a tax even

benefits. But why do the big and richest countries in the world want

to maintain these tax havens? They would tell you that they don't, is

the short answer. The sceptics, some of the campaigners at Oxfam, for

example, who very much awarded this letter, some of them suspect that

there might be onto political influence from donors on Wall Street

and the City of London. Other major industries. That makes Government a

bit more reluctant to get very aggressive with vaccines. But if you

ask them their direct question, they would say they are very much in

favour of transparency and want tax to be paid were genuine economic

activity takes place. Next, the latest instalment in our CEO C2c 's.

Here is the founder of Atari, with his advice. Including Sony gave to

Steve jobs. -- including some that he gave.

I said that of the marketing company creates mediocrity. If you're the

only person that believes in something and you take a vote and

everyone says no, do it anyway. That is online if you want to shave

it, by the way. That is it for the Foster. -- if you want to share it.

That is it for the first half. Thank you for
