Hello, this is Outside Source. Our lead story concerns the situation

:00:12.:00:20.

with Hurricane Matthew, the southern United States being prepared for the

:00:21.:00:23.

storm to arrive. In Haiti, rescue work is still going on and the

:00:24.:00:26.

rescue workers are struggling to reach areas that have been

:00:27.:00:30.

devastated. The death toll is already passed 100.

:00:31.:00:35.

The battle to become the next leader of Ukip has taken a serious turn.

:00:36.:00:42.

been taken to hospital in Strasbourg been taken to hospital in Strasbourg

:00:43.:00:47.

after an altercation at a party meeting. In a minute I will play the

:00:48.:00:51.

latest report from the BBC's sports editor who has been speaking to a

:00:52.:00:56.

former member of Team Sky. As you are watching, if you want to get in

:00:57.:01:04.

touch, do so by e-mailing. These are all of my contacts.

:01:05.:01:20.

Let's turn to this UK politics stories that is as strange as it is

:01:21.:01:27.

serious. Steven Woolfe, a senior figure in Ukip, is currently

:01:28.:01:33.

recovering in hospital after collapsing after what has been

:01:34.:01:37.

described as an altercation with a Ukip colleague at the European

:01:38.:01:42.

Parliament in Strasbourg. He has tweeted from hospital saying thank

:01:43.:01:46.

you very much to Parliamentary staff, to Ukip's MEPs, members of

:01:47.:01:51.

the European Parliament, and the hospital staff for their care and

:01:52.:01:57.

love. Nigel Farage is the interim party leader and here he is after

:01:58.:02:00.

visiting Steven Woolfe. I'm pleased to say he is sitting up in bed and

:02:01.:02:06.

feeling better. I trust that overnight, you know, everything will

:02:07.:02:08.

be OK and he will be released tomorrow. No doubt he will be laid

:02:09.:02:14.

up for a bit after this. He's been through a big shock today. As for

:02:15.:02:19.

the events which led up to it, well, it is two grown men getting involved

:02:20.:02:23.

in an altercation, it is not very good behaviour, but I am not today

:02:24.:02:28.

going to get involved in the blame game and name names and say who did

:02:29.:02:32.

what. But it shouldn't have happened. Before we get the latest,

:02:33.:02:39.

Nigel Farage is the man who made Ukip a significant political force.

:02:40.:02:42.

He was responsible for some of the pressure which led to the Brexit

:02:43.:02:46.

referendum being called. He was a high-profile campaigner for the vote

:02:47.:02:51.

to leave. Once the referendum had been won he said he was stepping

:02:52.:02:56.

down. There was a vote and Diane James was elected to take David --

:02:57.:03:03.

to take over as leader. On Monday she decided that wasn't going to

:03:04.:03:08.

happen any more. Only 18 days after her victory. Which means Nigel

:03:09.:03:11.

Farage was returned as interim leader. Meanwhile, Steven Woolfe,

:03:12.:03:15.

the man at the centre of this story today, is the favourite to take

:03:16.:03:20.

over. These are tumultuous times for a party which is far more

:03:21.:03:33.

significant in UK politics is one of the.

:03:34.:03:37.

He gave a statement from his hospital bed in France that he was

:03:38.:03:44.

feeling pretty good. He is smiling. Feeling bright. He thanked the

:03:45.:03:50.

hospital staff. He thanked his supporters, too. He said he had had

:03:51.:03:55.

a brain scan. He said reports that had been around early in the

:03:56.:03:58.

bleeding on the brain was not the bleeding on the brain was not the

:03:59.:04:03.

case. There was no bleeding on the brain. But he is being kept in as

:04:04.:04:07.

part of observation. But he was feeling OK, which was the good news

:04:08.:04:11.

of calls from that hospital statement. As for what happens next

:04:12.:04:15.

with this party after those extraordinary events this morning,

:04:16.:04:20.

descending into even more bitter descending into even more bitter

:04:21.:04:24.

infighting than was the case before. One of the party's chief donors,

:04:25.:04:32.

Aaron Banks, put out a statement tonight heavily criticising others

:04:33.:04:39.

in the party, calling for two leading members in effect to leave

:04:40.:04:42.

the party over all of this. And referring to one senior figure as a

:04:43.:04:47.

creature from the gutter. That was a reference to Neil Hamilton, a former

:04:48.:04:51.

Conservative MP, who came over to Ukip and had been speaking about

:04:52.:04:56.

these events today. It is getting pretty feisty.

:04:57.:05:06.

2-hit Steven Woolfe? -- who hit. Ironically this was described as

:05:07.:05:16.

they clear the air meeting. What we know is that Steven Woolfe had been

:05:17.:05:21.

speaking. There was a heated exchange. Things got pretty lively.

:05:22.:05:24.

He then said he was going to leave the room. One of the party's MEPs

:05:25.:05:36.

Mike Hooker was in the room. It is reported he left the room with

:05:37.:05:40.

Steven Woolfe. We put that to the party spokesperson. He did not deny

:05:41.:05:45.

that was the case. What happened outside is less clear. MEPs did not

:05:46.:05:50.

witness the sequence of events outside. But certainly, what has

:05:51.:05:54.

been described as an exchange of punches appeared to take place. But

:05:55.:05:58.

it has been reported tonight that Mike Hookem's spokesperson said he

:05:59.:06:03.

did not touch Steven Woolfe. He is not -- has not responded to our

:06:04.:06:09.

request tonight to talk to us. Whatever then took place left Steven

:06:10.:06:13.

Woolfe in the state where he hit his head. He then went off to a vote. He

:06:14.:06:21.

felt unwell during that. It was at that point he collapsed.

:06:22.:06:26.

Thanks very much. I'm sure this story will unfold through this

:06:27.:06:30.

evening and tomorrow. Time for sport. We will talk about an evening

:06:31.:06:33.

of World Cup qualifying matches. I'm going to talk about a few

:06:34.:06:38.

of them in a minute - but I want to start with Kosovo,

:06:39.:06:41.

which is playing its first ever home Croatia are the opponents -

:06:42.:06:45.

but the match isn't in Kosovo as the national stadium

:06:46.:06:49.

is being rebuilt, it's in Albania. Many of these players actually

:06:50.:07:04.

played for other countries before the International football

:07:05.:07:06.

authorities recognised Kosovo earlier this year and Fifa has

:07:07.:07:10.

allowed them to switch allegiance so they can take part in this debut

:07:11.:07:14.

World Cup qualifying campaign. I wanted to make the switch. It is the

:07:15.:07:22.

land... I was born here in Kosovo. I have family here. My parents are

:07:23.:07:26.

from Kosovo. For me it is a very nice thing to be in this team and to

:07:27.:07:42.

represent Kosovo. As you can see, people's sporting loyalties are

:07:43.:07:46.

still not exactly decided. The local knock-off football shirt stand sells

:07:47.:07:51.

as many black and red Albanian shirts as it does the blue and

:07:52.:07:57.

yellow of Kosovo. What's more, Kosovo is still struggling to

:07:58.:08:00.

establish itself as a functioning state. The national team has a job

:08:01.:08:03.

on its hands not just to win the match but people's hearts and minds,

:08:04.:08:08.

as well. Thanks very much. And we'll is live

:08:09.:08:15.

from the BBC sports Centre. How are they getting on? -- Will.

:08:16.:08:25.

Things are not going well. The decision was made back in June,

:08:26.:08:32.

Kosovo won the right to play, despite strong opposition from

:08:33.:08:34.

Serbia. Fifa allowed Kosovan players Serbia. Fifa allowed Kosovan players

:08:35.:08:36.

who already played for a national who already played for a national

:08:37.:08:41.

team to switch nationalities as a one-off exception. They got a good

:08:42.:08:44.

result against Finland in their opening game. But it is a huge

:08:45.:08:48.

night, playing at home, albeit across the board in Albania, but it

:08:49.:08:56.

has not gone to plan, a 6-0 defeat. Mario Mandzukic scored.

:08:57.:09:06.

Clearly not going to plan for Kosovo. Let's talk about big game of

:09:07.:09:11.

the night, Italy against Spain. It was a 1-1 draw. The full-time

:09:12.:09:18.

whistle has just in group G. It might be surprising for some people

:09:19.:09:22.

that they are in the same group for qualifying. Spain are the seeded

:09:23.:09:28.

team, Italy are unseeded. There was a big mistake by the Italy

:09:29.:09:33.

goalkeeper. Daniele De Rossi levelled things with a late penalty.

:09:34.:09:38.

Italy were knocked out of the group stages in 2014, but they made the

:09:39.:09:47.

final this year. 20 people will be watching this in

:09:48.:09:53.

Wales. After Euro 2016 their opponents will know more about them

:09:54.:09:57.

than perhaps before. -- plenty of people will be watching this.

:09:58.:10:02.

They are in stoppage time. It is still 2-2. A great game. A real

:10:03.:10:07.

roller-coaster of a match for the team who made the finals of Euro

:10:08.:10:16.

2016. -- quarterfinals. Wales went ahead through an own goal from

:10:17.:10:20.

Tottenham defender Kevin Demo before there was another goal thanks to a

:10:21.:10:26.

mix-up from Wales at the back. 2-2 against Austria.

:10:27.:10:32.

Thanks very much. There is full coverage of those qualifiers via the

:10:33.:10:35.

BBC sport app. One of Team Sky's former riders has

:10:36.:10:37.

questioned their decision to allow Sir Bradley Wiggins to take a banned

:10:38.:10:40.

drug to treat his asthma. In an exclusive interview

:10:41.:10:43.

for the BBC Jonathan Tiernan-Locke, who rode for the team

:10:44.:10:45.

until he was sacked for a doping violation, says the matter "looked

:10:46.:10:48.

suspicious" and "odd". Sir Bradley - who's always

:10:49.:10:54.

denied any wrongdoing - was granted a therapeutic use

:10:55.:10:56.

exemption before 3 major races, including the 2012 Tour de

:10:57.:10:58.

France which he won. Four years ago he was the next big

:10:59.:11:16.

thing in British cycling. Then Tiernan-Locke's world fell apart,

:11:17.:11:21.

banned for an anti-doping -- banned for a doping allegation. His former

:11:22.:11:25.

employers have recently been involved in another controversy,

:11:26.:11:28.

having to defend Sir Bradley Wiggins's use on medical grounds of

:11:29.:11:31.

a banned steroid before major races. At home in Cornwall, Tiernan-Locke

:11:32.:11:38.

told me he had been surprised about the revelations, and has always

:11:39.:11:44.

maintained his innocence. The timing does not look great. You assume if

:11:45.:11:49.

he had the need for such a thing it would be consistent throughout your

:11:50.:11:52.

career, something you use every year. From that point of view it

:11:53.:11:59.

side, Team Sky don't want to leave side, Team Sky don't want to leave

:12:00.:12:01.

anything to chance because they are thorough. Why risk of these

:12:02.:12:06.

allergies derailing their best laid plans? Therapeutic use exemptions

:12:07.:12:12.

have come under scrutiny after Russian computer hackers bleeped

:12:13.:12:16.

athletes' private medical records. Both Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky

:12:17.:12:20.

insist he took the drug for asthma related allergies and not to gain an

:12:21.:12:24.

unfair advantage. It was approved by the authorities and there is no

:12:25.:12:28.

suggestion either break any rules. Surprised to see some of the TUEs,

:12:29.:12:35.

and especially some of the timing of those from riders from Team Sky.

:12:36.:12:41.

Yeah, I think from the outside it definitely looks, it looks odd, I do

:12:42.:12:48.

think it is not quite singing from the same transparent hymn sheet as

:12:49.:12:53.

we are led to believe previously. Some will listen to what you have to

:12:54.:12:58.

say and say why should we... Absolutely. If the shoe was on the

:12:59.:13:03.

other foot I might think... You know, in a similar fashion. And you

:13:04.:13:10.

are sticking to that? Absolutely. I'm not a drugs cheat. Tiernan-Locke

:13:11.:13:17.

Claims when competing for his country he was offered a legal but

:13:18.:13:21.

painkiller that some in the sport painkiller that some in the sport

:13:22.:13:25.

want banned. There was a time when I brewed in the World Championships.

:13:26.:13:29.

We were offered a painkiller called tramadol. I wasn't in any pain so I

:13:30.:13:34.

didn't need to take it but it was offered around. They did not sit

:13:35.:13:39.

well with me at the time. The national governing body, British

:13:40.:13:42.

cycling, says the doctor concerned denies Tiernan-Locke's claim. He,

:13:43.:13:48.

meanwhile, having served his band, is trying to get his career back on

:13:49.:13:50.

track. -- ban. A Libyan American journalist

has become the first Muslim to Playboy pose for in a hijab -- to

:14:07.:14:16.

pose for Playboy in a hijab. For the first time a controversial

:14:17.:14:21.

fracking process has been given the go-ahead in the UK -

:14:22.:14:24.

despite fierce local opposition. The government has overturned

:14:25.:14:26.

a decision by the county council in Lancashire - which means

:14:27.:14:28.

horizontal fracking for shale gas can begin at a site in North West

:14:29.:14:31.

England. Our Industry correspondent

:14:32.:14:33.

John Moylan reports. It's an ordinary field

:14:34.:14:38.

on Lancashire's Fylde coast. And for the past two years,

it's been on the Local residents here have been

:14:44.:14:46.

field over there. Susan Holliday lives

just 300 metres away. Today she was devastated by the news

:14:51.:14:52.

that fracking had been There's going to be

:14:55.:14:59.

potentially smell it, see it. It's really going to have an affect

on our quality of life. Emotions were also running high

also be approved if traffic It should not go ahead anywhere,

:15:15.:15:17.

but in particular here. The Prime Minister, Theresa May,

fracking will begin. That sort of intense,

:15:55.:16:01.

industrial activity could continue Plans are to drill four exploration

:16:02.:16:02.

wells on the side. Cuadrilla believes Britain will need

:16:03.:16:08.

shale gas in the years to come. Today they welcome

:16:09.:16:11.

the Government's decision. It is an important milestone

:16:12.:16:14.

for Cuadrilla and an important milestone for the future

:16:15.:16:16.

of shale gas in the country. But most importantly it gives us

:16:17.:16:22.

an opportunity now to test and see whether this gas that we know

:16:23.:16:25.

is in the ground, we can get it out of the ground at commercial rates

:16:26.:16:28.

and stop importing the stuff. Opponents will now be scrutinising

:16:29.:16:33.

this decision to see But after years of debate, fracking

:16:34.:16:35.

has now come a big step closer. Hello, I'm Ros Atkins,

:16:36.:16:50.

this is Outside Source. Hurricane Matthew has left a trail

:16:51.:17:03.

of destruction in Haiti. Over 100 people so far have been reported

:17:04.:17:08.

dead. Coming up after: If you outside the UK, the importance of

:17:09.:17:15.

African-American voters in Cleveland on deciding which way the Ohio goes

:17:16.:17:19.

in the presidential election. In the UK, the news at ten is next,

:17:20.:17:23.

and there will be much more on hurricane Matthew. Nick Bryant will

:17:24.:17:24.

be live from Haiti. We wouldn't always report

:17:25.:17:32.

on a new England cricket team, but the one that's starts this week

:17:33.:17:34.

in Bangladesh is different. England's captain Eoin

:17:35.:17:36.

Morgan isn't there. -- And nor is the

:17:37.:17:38.

batsman Alex Hales. Both refused to go because of

:17:39.:17:42.

the threat from radical Islamists. Justin Rowlatt has this from Dhaka

:17:43.:17:45.

on the measures being taken Let me play you his report.

:17:46.:18:03.

The England squad does not just have a team Bath here in Bangladesh but

:18:04.:18:12.

an entire team motorcade. -- team bus. The authorities are not taking

:18:13.:18:16.

any chances. The players are guarded by a small army. It's great to be

:18:17.:18:21.

here at a cricket ground. There has been locked in the build-up about

:18:22.:18:26.

security. But now we are here we can start on playing cricket. And

:18:27.:18:32.

plainly they will. But for Bangladesh this tour is about much

:18:33.:18:37.

more than just cricket -- and play they will. The national reputation

:18:38.:18:44.

is on the line. Three months ago it suffered the worst terrorist attack

:18:45.:18:51.

in its history. Five militants attacked a restaurant popular with

:18:52.:18:57.

foreigners. We are the first journalist allowed back in. The cafe

:18:58.:19:08.

is frozen in time. The terrorists killed 20 hostages here. 18 of them

:19:09.:19:12.

foreigners before they themselves were killed in a commando assault.

:19:13.:19:19.

What the pictures cannot show is the terrible smell. What happened here

:19:20.:19:26.

alerted the world to Bangladesh's growing problem with militancy. 40

:19:27.:19:32.

people were killed by Islamist extremists in the three years before

:19:33.:19:37.

the attack here. Bloggers, gay activists and foreigners were all

:19:38.:19:43.

targeted. Many of the attacks were claimed by Isis and groups

:19:44.:19:46.

associated with Al-Qaeda. Raising fears that Bangladesh is becoming a

:19:47.:19:56.

new centre for jihadist violence. The government says it has hit back

:19:57.:20:00.

hard against the Islamist networks. Since the cafe attack more than 150

:20:01.:20:05.

suspected terrorists have been arrested. 20 have been killed.

:20:06.:20:10.

England have been training here all week. This tour is Bangladesh's

:20:11.:20:15.

opportunity to prove to the world that the country is now safe. So any

:20:16.:20:19.

incident will be a disaster. But last week there was a security

:20:20.:20:28.

breach. During a match against Afghanistan a fan managed to invade

:20:29.:20:33.

the pitch. He just wanted to cuddle the Bangladeshi captain. But if a

:20:34.:20:42.

fan can get through canny terrorist? -- can a terrorist?

:20:43.:20:47.

For the first time Playboy has featured a Muslim woman wearing a

:20:48.:20:56.

hijab. We have met the Libyan American woman who decided to do the

:20:57.:21:08.

shoot. My name is Noor Taouri. I'm based in the Washington, DC area. I

:21:09.:21:12.

also travelled as a motivational speaker. People ask why Playboy and

:21:13.:21:17.

I say why not? I don't know why we are going to sit there and

:21:18.:21:20.

constantly say we want people to understand what Muslim American

:21:21.:21:23.

women are like, but we will only share it was certain people. My

:21:24.:21:27.

message is the same. I didn't compromise anything. -- share it

:21:28.:21:32.

with certain people. It is important to have that on the ground and on a

:21:33.:21:38.

territory where they were known for objectifying women. But at the same

:21:39.:21:42.

time if my message is to combat the objectification and the

:21:43.:21:45.

sexualisation of women in our society then what better way to

:21:46.:21:46.

share that message and put it in share that message and put it in

:21:47.:21:50.

peoples faces than on the front of where people are known to do that.

:21:51.:21:54.

There has been a lot of negative reaction from the Middle East in

:21:55.:21:58.

terms of my Playboy piece and I think the first and foremost reason

:21:59.:22:02.

is banned in a lot of countries. The is banned in a lot of countries. The

:22:03.:22:07.

people are not reading interview. The positive is that people know

:22:08.:22:12.

that Muslim women are often misrepresented in media. When you

:22:13.:22:15.

are approaching a story which is sensitive you can share that with

:22:16.:22:19.

them and say, listen, I know what it is like. You can trust me with this

:22:20.:22:22.

story. That's been the most rewarding thing. This is a building

:22:23.:22:29.

that has been covered in medical records... Right now I am pretty

:22:30.:22:32.

much doing everything I love. I get to tell stories around the country

:22:33.:22:35.

and around the world I care about, but I think are important. I don't

:22:36.:22:39.

read the negativity. I focus on the positive and what is next.

:22:40.:22:47.

That report is available online. If you have the BBC News at or you have

:22:48.:22:52.

access to the BBC News website, you can find that particular report in
