Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source. | :00:09. | :00:14. | |
More than 15,000 people have been suspended by the education ministry | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
in Turkey, and another 20,000 teachers have | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
It's the latest purge of officials after the coup attempt on Friday. | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
We'll hear from our correspondent in Istanbul. | :00:28. | :00:29. | |
In the UK Angela Eagle has dropped out of the race for | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
It means just two candidates will contest it - | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
The 17-year-old who carried out an axe attack on a train | :00:38. | :00:44. | |
in Germany apparently made a video before the attack, | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
The International Olympic Committee is taking legal advice | :00:49. | :01:01. | |
on whether it can ban Russia's entire team from Rio 2016. | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
And Nintendo's share price has now doubled in value since the release | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
Let's look at the scale Turkish government's response | :01:08. | :01:32. | |
Just today we heard that 15,000 people have been suspended | :01:33. | :01:52. | |
The licenses of 21,000 teachers in private institutions | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
1500 university deans have been told to resign. | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
That comes after over 8,000 police officers have been removed | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
and 6,000 members of the military have been removed. | :02:02. | :02:03. | |
Also today several TV and radio stations have | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
You hear all this, and think, can the state just do this? | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
Here's Selin Girit in Istanbul on the legality of these dismissals. | :02:14. | :02:22. | |
they can dismiss people from their posts and revoke licences. The | :02:23. | :02:32. | |
turkey 's watchdog for TV and radio has the right to revoke licences of | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
certain radios and TV channels. Having the right does not | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
necessarily mean it is right to do that. That is what many people | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
across Turkey, especially critics of the government asked themselves. | :02:48. | :02:59. | |
Over 30,000 people is that people are either dismissed or jailed, or | :03:00. | :03:08. | |
be tamed. However the coup attempt actually had more support within the | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
bureaucracy, with the police force, within the army, and initially | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
believed. If these people are all supporting the movement as the | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
government suggests, how in the first place will be able to | :03:25. | :03:29. | |
infiltrate in such numbers into such a significant positions within the | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
state bureaucracy and police force, and the army. And the question is | :03:34. | :03:41. | |
whether President Erdogan is using this oppression of the coup attempt | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
as an opportunity to enhance power. I wonder how public opinion is on | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
people being driven out of the education system. On Friday night we | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
saw Mr Erdogan picking up support from people taking to the streets | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
but his public opinion behind this move? When we are talking about | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
Turkey we need to emphasise that this is a very divided country, | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
divided society. It has already been polarised for several years now. | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
After the coup attempt, it is that polarisation within that society as | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
well. Having said that, there was not support for the coup attempt at | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
cross Turkey will stop there were of course people but in a minority that | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
will be supporting such a move. Turkey has suffered from several of | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
these in the past. Many people are killed and five such incidents with | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
people detained and arrested. Turkey has witnessed all of those. It was | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
not necessary any support for a coup attempt. | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
Here in London, there's been another twist in the opposition | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
Last week Angela Eagle announced she would challenge Labour | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
Today she she said she was dropping out - | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
and instead will be supporting Owen Smith who also | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
Remember Jeremy Corbyn was elected last summer by the party's | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
membership - but in the wake of the Brexit vote, Labour Mps | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
overwhelmingly supported a vote of no confidence. | :05:18. | :05:18. | |
Well here's Angela Eagle Owen Smith earlier. | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
Owen Smith has a lead and I think it is in the best interests | :05:24. | :05:31. | |
of the Labour Party that we now come together so we can have one | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
candidate, so I am announcing tonight that I am withdrawing | :05:38. | :05:39. | |
I would like to congratulate Owen oncoming top in this race and then | :05:40. | :05:53. | |
going on I think to take on Jeremy Corbyn. | :05:54. | :05:55. | |
I would just like to say to Angela, who is a great friend of mine | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
and a wonderful Labour leader who has been a pioneer | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
in our party for many years, that I will want to work | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
side-by-side with Angela through this contest, | :06:07. | :06:08. | |
I want Angela to be at my right hand throughout this. | :06:09. | :06:17. | |
I need Angela to work alongside me throughout this contest | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
She is a great Labour woman and I absolutely cannot do | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
without her in what will be very few months. | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
It is good to be a difficult few months, that is putting it mildly. | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
The Labour membership in the polling still suggests Jeremy Corbyn. It | :06:33. | :06:40. | |
will be difficult it will be a hard-fought battle for the soul of | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
the Labour Party in the United Kingdom. We can expect the challenge | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
of Owen Smith against Jeremy Corbyn, the incumbent leader, to last | :06:49. | :06:49. | |
through the summer we will have an announcement | :06:50. | :07:02. | |
of the winner after the party conference. Owen Smith is being | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
called the unity candidate by the Labour MPs. The support against the | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
current labour Jeremy Corbyn. He has a mountain to climb against Jeremy | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
Corbyn. He was elected by a landslide in the Labour Party | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
membership last year. At the moment of the indication so far that we | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
have, in the sense of the little bit of polling that has been done, it | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
does suggest that Jeremy Corbyn is still way ahead. What we have known | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
from Owen Smith, his challenger, is a campaign to try to recruit people | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
as registered supporters to try to join the Labour Party. If they can | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
join in the next 24 hours so they can vote in that election, he wants | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
more people to join up to vote for him. I keep you this would unity but | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
isn't the reality of the situation, which ever way this election goes, | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
they will be a significant chunk of the Labour Party that find it | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
completely unpalatable? There will. That is what is at the heart of the | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
crisis that has engulfed the Labour Party since those seismic events of | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
last month when the UK voted to leave the EU. This became a moment | :08:15. | :08:22. | |
that had reverberations in the governing Conservative Party but | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
also the Labour Party. It had its own leadership crisis unfolding. | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
Jeremy Corbyn as a left-wing leader of the party still has the support | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
of many of the mass membership. Grassroots support of people who say | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
they felt locked out of the establishment system, the political | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
bubble of Westminster and believe that the system has ignored them. | :08:46. | :08:53. | |
Those people still support Jeremy Corbyn and feel incredibly | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
passionate about his leadership of the party. Whereas the MPs, the | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
people in Westminster, the majority of them do not support Jeremy | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
Corbyn. Here is the crisis at the centre of the party because they | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
believe he cannot win an election for them. When it comes to the vote, | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
the people will decide the next leader of the Labour Party. Every MP | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
will get one vote just as one of those many hundreds of thousands who | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
have no special privileges. This will be a very hard-fought fight. It | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
is for the soul of the party. You will be helping us cover that story | :09:30. | :09:30. | |
over the next few months. The Islamic State group has released | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
a video that it says shows the teenager who carried out an axe | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
attack in Germany yesterday. We know the attacker | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
was shot dead by police - and that he was a 17-year-old | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
Afghan asylum seeker. This is a still from the video - | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
we see the man brandishing a knife and calls himself an "IS soldier" | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
who's preparing for The attack was near the city of | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
Wurzburg. Four people were injured - | :10:00. | :10:08. | |
all are from Hong Kong. The attack was on a train. This is a | :10:09. | :10:20. | |
image of two of the people who were attacked. | :10:21. | :10:20. | |
The South China Morning Post had this picture showing two of them. | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
Two of those people are still in a critical condition. A total of five | :10:27. | :10:33. | |
people were injured because another passer-by was injured while the | :10:34. | :10:37. | |
attacker was running away from the police. The attacker himself was | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
also shot dead by police whilst running away. Apparently he then | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
tried to attack the police as well. What we have to clarify as you have | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
mentioned quite rightly is that we have this video that ISC is the | :10:53. | :11:03. | |
attacker. We have no evidence that is the case. Officials in Bavaria | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
are analysing this video. They are looking at it to check the identity | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
of this man. Until we have confirmation we only really have the | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
word from the IES group who are claiming this is the attacker. IES | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
has also claimed that the attacker was acting under the orders. We have | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
to take that with the pinch of salt. So far there is no concrete evidence | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
from police and officials here that this attacker was formally linked to | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
other Islamist networks. So far, they say the only evidence they have | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
is that he was acting on his own. This could change because throughout | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
the day we've had new information coming through. We will have to | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
strike a note of caution because it is a different thing he was a lone | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
wolf acting on his own or acting with Islamic State as a source of | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
inspiration, or was he part of that network? Until we have the official | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
word from the authorities we cannot see which of those two marketers. Do | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
we know anything about where he was living, who he was living with, how | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
he was leading his life? Police have said that he arrived here in Germany | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
from Afghanistan about two years ago. He was just 15 years old. He | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
was an unaccompanied minor, like many from Afghanistan. Thousands of | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
young Afghans coming without their parents. Azzy young person, he was | :12:31. | :12:37. | |
able -- he was put into care in a refugee home at first. In the past | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
fortnight he stayed with the past fortnight he stayed with a foster | :12:40. | :12:41. | |
family. In a few minutes we'll be talking | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
about the racial abuse received by Leslie Jones - | :12:46. | :12:48. | |
star of Ghostbusters - on Twitter. And why Twitter isn't | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
doing more to stop it. Lincolnshire Police have confirmed | :12:52. | :13:07. | |
that a man and two women who died after a shooting in Spalding | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
were all known to one another. A little earlier, the police gave | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
more details about the incident. At the scene, the officers found a | :13:16. | :13:24. | |
deceased man along with two women who received serious injuries. CBR | :13:25. | :13:29. | |
was attempted on both women. I am sad to report that both women have | :13:30. | :13:36. | |
subsequently died. We believe a shotgun was involved in the incident | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
and are currently investigating the circumstances of this tragic | :13:41. | :13:45. | |
incident. We confirm that we are no longer seeking anyone else in | :13:46. | :13:50. | |
connection to this tragedy. I can also confirm that no shots were | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
fired by police and this is not being treated as a terrorist related | :13:55. | :13:55. | |
incident. This is Outside Source live | :13:56. | :14:10. | |
from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story is? The purge | :14:11. | :14:12. | |
of Turkish officials unleashed after the failed military coup has | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
spread to the education sector, The education sector has been | :14:16. | :14:34. | |
hard-hit today. From Syria, we are told by activist that at least 56 | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
civilians including children have been killed in air strikes by the | :14:39. | :14:41. | |
US-led coalition. The strikes two villages held by ISIS militants in | :14:42. | :14:48. | |
northern Serbia. The fire on a true boss in Taiwan has killed all 26 | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
people on board. They were tourists from mainland China and heading back | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
to the airport. -- in northern Syria. This is a mini heatwave in | :14:57. | :15:04. | |
the UK at the moment. There are some dust doubles that you can see on a | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
farm in the south of England. The weather looks set to continue. | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
The International Monetary Fund says the UK's decision to leave | :15:14. | :15:17. | |
the European Union had had a negative impact on the world | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
It's downgraded its forecast for global growth to 3.1%, a.1% drop. | :15:21. | :15:32. | |
The UK is now forecast to have 1.3% growth next year, | :15:33. | :15:35. | |
It says the UK will be the worst affected of all developed economies. | :15:36. | :15:43. | |
I've been getting the analysis of Andrew Walker. | :15:44. | :15:50. | |
People are thinking about what is Britain's trading relationship with | :15:51. | :15:57. | |
Europe and the rest of the world going to look like? There in mind | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
that even so, this is based on very little hard data. The only really | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
quite clear, unambiguous thing they have got apart from a few surveys | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
has been what happened in the financial markets. An episode which | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
the IMF describes as severe but orderly. This is very much a case of | :16:16. | :16:23. | |
the IMF saying we do think we're going to see some adverse | :16:24. | :16:27. | |
consequences for the UK but they are not forecasting a recession. Some | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
might be is a cynical eyebrow and see the IMF has interests in this | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
debate. It is not a neutral observer of what the UK and other countries | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
decide to do and as such, it is in its interest to paint Brexit is | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
negative. Some people would say that the managing director is very much | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
of the European integrationist type of tradition. She's a former finance | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
and Trade Minister in France. Some thinks she still has political | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
ambitions to go back there at some stage. This is an exercise that is | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
managed by the chief economist who is a former academic from the | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
California University. These figures do represent what the Economist who | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
genuinely believe that the UK and the rest of the world will be | :17:14. | :17:16. | |
looking at. What surprised me was not the UK growth forecast but both | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
that Nigeria and South Africa have seen that as well... This is not | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
about the British referendum result. It is partly about past falls in | :17:26. | :17:32. | |
commodity prices. Both countries, especially Nigeria, are having a | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
hard time. The fall in the oil price for Nigeria and metal prices for | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
South Africa. Nigeria also has power cuts and political issues. They are | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
quite striking downgrades. There are two countries that had a bit of an | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
upgrade. Brazil and Russia. It is not great news because they are | :17:52. | :17:54. | |
merely contracted slightly less rapidly than the winner. | :17:55. | :18:03. | |
Six years ago, the tobacco company, Philip Morris International | :18:04. | :18:05. | |
It claimed that the Uruguayan government's strong anti smoking | :18:06. | :18:10. | |
policies were damaging to business and free trade. | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
It was one of the first countries to introduce plain packaging | :18:13. | :18:15. | |
on cigarettes and covered much of the packaging | :18:16. | :18:17. | |
Well yesterday an arbitration court run by the World Bank, | :18:18. | :18:28. | |
ruled in favour of Uruguay and said they had the right to continue | :18:29. | :18:31. | |
Let us get more on the story. Lighter Sao Paulo. I am surprised in | :18:32. | :18:46. | |
some way that the government cannot do what it likes anyway? The entire | :18:47. | :18:54. | |
case that Philip Morris brought against Uruguay was based on | :18:55. | :18:59. | |
bilateral treatment that Uruguay signed with Switzerland. That treaty | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
has some clauses about trademarks and brands, and things like that. | :19:03. | :19:10. | |
That treaty was used to try to show that the rules that Uruguay applied | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
in the cigarette industry at home were in violation of those treaties. | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
The panel decided that was not the case and that Uruguay had all the | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
right it needed to actually pursue those packages which helped, | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
according to the health minister of Uruguay, to adjust the amount of | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
smokers in great numbers in about ten years. Thank you very much. | :19:34. | :19:50. | |
As you'll be well aware Pokemon Go has become a global phenomenon. | :19:51. | :19:57. | |
It launched on July 6th and since then Nintendo's | :19:58. | :19:59. | |
That makes Nintendo's market value higher than Sony. | :20:00. | :20:09. | |
All this begs the question whether such a sharp rise is sustainable? | :20:10. | :20:16. | |
That is the question. Investors at the moment seem to think it is worth | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
the money. They tend to be forward-looking. They think the | :20:21. | :20:26. | |
future now as a result of Pokemon Go and issue success, the future for | :20:27. | :20:29. | |
Nintendo has been brighter than has been in its recent past. The | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
question now that investors are asking, how much of the profit from | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
that game will go to the actual company? The answer is not that | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
simple. The developer is a company that is spun off of Google. Nintendo | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
had a stake in that. There is the Pokemon company which is the | :20:54. | :20:55. | |
producer of the game and Nintendo owns a stake in that. It will see | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
some benefit to its bottom line but not necessarily as much as perhaps | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
the rise in share price suggest. Is this a sign that companies like | :21:06. | :21:09. | |
Nintendo who traditionally have built their success on hardware | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
sales now see the future in selling apps or software? It was interesting | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
when the game first came out in the United States, one of the first sort | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
of comments I saw about this was somebody saying, for so long | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
Nintendo has been focused on consoles, the hardware, and that's | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
now perhaps it. To realise the value in some of its other franchisees. | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
Mario Brothers to mention just one. Whether he will start to see | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
Nintendo tried to make money out of that, smartphone apps, that this in | :21:42. | :21:46. | |
part why you see this huge valuation. Those people who would | :21:47. | :21:50. | |
justify the value see it is not just this game, it is what they can do | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
next. It unleashes potential that people had not seen in Nintendo for | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
a long time. For Pokemon, many people had forgotten about Nintendo. | :22:01. | :22:04. | |
If you asked about a Japanese gaming company and -- then Sony would be | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
the name that comes to mind. Thank you very much. | :22:08. | :22:12. | |
Social networking site Twitter has come under fire from a Hollywood | :22:13. | :22:14. | |
actress after she was the victim of a tirade of racial abuse. | :22:15. | :22:17. | |
This is Leslie Jones, she's one of the stars | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
of the all-female remake of Ghostbusters which | :22:21. | :22:21. | |
Last night she was pummelled with a barrage of racist tweets. | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
This is how the actress described it herself. | :22:28. | :22:35. | |
We will not sure many of them to you because it is offensive. | :22:36. | :22:50. | |
The abuse prompted Leslie Jones to take a swipe at twitter. She says it | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
needs to do more to deal with this type of behaviour. | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
''I didn't do anything to deserve this. | :23:00. | :23:00. | |
This is commonplace on Twitter. It is the fact that the barrage she got | :23:01. | :23:20. | |
and our own personal feeling, she called at her personal health. She | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
went on for about three hours on Twitter yesterday, treating the | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
abuse she got. Rogers races but misogynistic as well. Ghostbusters | :23:30. | :23:32. | |
has an all-female cast so there was criticism about that. She said she | :23:33. | :23:39. | |
had tears in her eyes and was coming off twitter. People across the | :23:40. | :23:42. | |
spectrum felt this was wrong and should not be happening. The play to | :23:43. | :23:46. | |
her for highlighting it. She is putting the onus on twitter but is | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
this not a matter of the law will stop if I was to treat racist abuse | :23:52. | :23:55. | |
and would be breaking the law in the UK and will be those in charge of | :23:56. | :23:59. | |
the law, not just the social media platforms... It is so hard to trace | :24:00. | :24:05. | |
anybody who is on twitter. The profile does not say who they are | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
all the need is an e-mail that can be registered anywhere in the world. | :24:10. | :24:13. | |
It is a process of the time to track down the originator which is | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
impossible. Twitter have said they are putting money and investment | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
into preventing this in the first place. They are not stopping it | :24:20. | :24:26. | |
after the tweets have happened, they are trying to sort it out before it | :24:27. | :24:29. | |
happens. That is a different can of worms and seems impossible. The CEO | :24:30. | :24:36. | |
of twitter, Jack Dorsey, messaged Leslie Jones and asked to direct | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
message him. We do not know if she took up on that offer. He intervened | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
personally. Twitter released a statement saying, we have blocked | :24:46. | :24:48. | |
lots of these accounts that were reported being connected with Leslie | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
Jones and are investing more in preventing this in the first place. | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
It does remain to be seen what they can do in the future. It is probably | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
a conversation they have every day at twitter. Presumably this is not | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
specific to Twitter, it is a problem for all Internet platforms? Anybody | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
can hide behind a keyboard and can be completely anonymous and it is | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
hard to track you down. You will have no worry or concern about | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
stating something they would not say to somebody in the street. They can | :25:22. | :25:25. | |
do it on a keyboard and now they will not be found out. If you want | :25:26. | :25:29. | |
more information on this you can get it on the BBC news app. The lead | :25:30. | :25:42. | |
story here at the BBC is that Turkey has suspended thousands of people | :25:43. | :25:47. | |
within the education sector as part of the response of the failed | :25:48. | :25:50. | |
military coup on Friday. We will bring you more details in the next | :25:51. | :25:52. | |
