Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:09.:00:10.

Let's look through some of the main stories here in the BBC Newsroom.

:00:11.:00:15.

The world's longest serving monarch, King Bhumibol of Thailand, has died.

:00:16.:00:19.

Hundreds of mourners in Bangkok have gathered and there have been

:00:20.:00:22.

It's now almost four months since Britain

:00:23.:00:25.

And today the Scottish First Minister announced

:00:26.:00:30.

that she will push for a second indepedence referendum now that

:00:31.:00:33.

We'll have the latest on the release of a number of the kidnapped Chibok

:00:34.:00:47.

And Tyson Fury has vacated his titles - we'll have that

:00:48.:00:51.

Three stories relating to Brexit now.

:00:52.:01:16.

This one has a huge amount of coverage.

:01:17.:01:27.

Unilever wanted to raise prices across a wide range

:01:28.:01:29.

That was a response to the falling value of the pound which in turn

:01:30.:01:33.

is largely a response to the Brexit vote.

:01:34.:01:35.

Tesco refused to shift the retail price.

:01:36.:01:37.

It pulled dozens of Unilever products from its website

:01:38.:01:39.

and some products like Marmite ran low in stores.

:01:40.:01:46.

Unilever says the supply situation with Tesco in the UK and Ireland has

:01:47.:01:54.

It says it's been working closely with Tesco to reach this resolution.

:01:55.:02:01.

I'm sure their PR team feel it's been a good day.

:02:02.:02:07.

Their products have been on the front pages of a lot of newspapers.

:02:08.:02:12.

Here's BBC Economics Editor, Kamal Ahmed, on what became

:02:13.:02:14.

There have been lots of forecasts about where the economy might go as

:02:15.:02:26.

Britain blocked its exit from the EU but here you actually saw something

:02:27.:02:31.

that affect real people. Unilever, the maker of these huge brands, said

:02:32.:02:35.

to Tesco that we need to increase prices because we buy a lot of our

:02:36.:02:40.

product in dollars and the weaker sterling has meant is more

:02:41.:02:43.

expensive. They demanded this increase of 10%. Tesco appears to

:02:44.:02:51.

have blocked that initially and they have kissed and made up to an

:02:52.:02:54.

extent. I think there is a bigger issue here which will be true for a

:02:55.:02:58.

lot of British businesses who are supplied from abroad. The suppliers

:02:59.:03:04.

will be saying, we will have to up our prices so who is going to take

:03:05.:03:11.

the pressure? We can see how the Americans are covering this story.

:03:12.:03:19.

It has got real in one way but arguably this next story is more

:03:20.:03:20.

significant. When the UK voted out of the the EU,

:03:21.:03:21.

the future of the UK itself The majority of Scots

:03:22.:03:24.

had voted to remain. That created some political

:03:25.:03:32.

tensions. Well, today Scotland's First

:03:33.:03:33.

Minister, Nicola Sturgeon, confirmed an Independence Referendum Bill

:03:34.:03:35.

will be published next week. This could lead to a second

:03:36.:03:44.

referendum, after the one in 2014 Here's some of what

:03:45.:03:47.

Nicola Sturgeon said. Are hard Brexit will change the UK

:03:48.:03:57.

fundamentally. The UK out of the single market, isolated, inward

:03:58.:04:03.

looking, haemorrhaging jobs and investment and opportunities will

:04:04.:04:06.

not be the same country that Scotland voted to stay part in 2014.

:04:07.:04:13.

If that is the insecure, unstable we face as part of the UK, then no one,

:04:14.:04:19.

no one will have the right to deny Scotland the chance to choose a

:04:20.:04:21.

better future. APPLAUSE When Nicola Sturgeon referred to

:04:22.:04:37.

hard Brexit, there has been a big debate between -- between hard and

:04:38.:04:41.

soft options but it is normally taken to mean an option where the UK

:04:42.:04:45.

leaves the single market and the reason it might have to is that at

:04:46.:04:52.

the moment, the EU's most significant figures like Angela

:04:53.:04:55.

Merkel and Francois Hollande are all saying that you cannot have access

:04:56.:04:58.

to the single market unless you agree to freedom of movement and one

:04:59.:05:02.

of the reasons that some people voted out of the European Union if

:05:03.:05:06.

they want to restrict movement and don't want total freedom of

:05:07.:05:09.

movement. Those things look irreconcilable so the hard Brexit

:05:10.:05:16.

option looks more likely and that is one of the things Nicola Sturgeon is

:05:17.:05:17.

comfortable with. The big question here

:05:18.:05:19.

is realistically what are the odds BBC Scotland editor Sarah Smith

:05:20.:05:22.

says there are still significant challenges -

:05:23.:05:32.

not least that polls suggest support for Scottish independence has barely

:05:33.:05:35.

increased since the Brexit vote. By all accounts Nicola Sturgeon

:05:36.:05:39.

will only go for this One last but equally

:05:40.:05:42.

important story. The process of the UK exiting the EU

:05:43.:05:52.

can only begin when the UK government triggers Article 50

:05:53.:05:55.

of the EU's Lisbon Treaty. The UK High Court is considering

:05:56.:06:01.

whether the Prime Minister can do The case is being brought

:06:02.:06:04.

by a London investment Essentially you have a legal

:06:05.:06:19.

challenge along these lines. Somebody is saying that it should

:06:20.:06:24.

not be for Theresa May and the government as such to decide when

:06:25.:06:28.

Britain triggered the process of leaving the EU, that it should be

:06:29.:06:32.

parliament because we have a parliamentary system in Britain. Of

:06:33.:06:35.

course what the government is arguing is that the people have

:06:36.:06:41.

spoken quite clearly and it is the Prime Minister who has to get on

:06:42.:06:48.

with it. It has to be said that this is a rather dry constitutional issue

:06:49.:06:54.

but it's a big one. And you will probably find no greater resource on

:06:55.:06:58.

Brexit and the myriad issues it greater than the BBC News website.

:06:59.:07:06.

Now what appears to be good news from the Nigerian

:07:07.:07:08.

We should stress however, that so far, none of this has been

:07:09.:07:20.

These are some of the more than 270 schoolgirls taken from the town

:07:21.:07:27.

of Chibok by Islamist militants in 2014.

:07:28.:07:33.

Martin Patience is our correspondent in Lagos.

:07:34.:07:43.

We understand that they are being held by the security forces in the

:07:44.:07:50.

north-eastern part of Nigeria. The government said they were released

:07:51.:07:56.

as part of negotiations with Begu harangue, supervised by the

:07:57.:07:57.

International committee of the Red Cross -- Boko Haram. Just last

:07:58.:08:06.

month, the government said they had been negotiating but talks had

:08:07.:08:10.

broken down three times. One month on and it appears they have secured

:08:11.:08:14.

the release of 21 of the girls. The names have yet to be released and as

:08:15.:08:19.

we understand it, they will be brought to the capital, Abuja, where

:08:20.:08:23.

they will meet the vice president in the coming hours or tomorrow. We

:08:24.:08:26.

have spoken to many of the families and they have been hoping for this

:08:27.:08:31.

day, that one day their daughters may come home. For some of them,

:08:32.:08:35.

that is coming through. Worth following Martin on Twitter for

:08:36.:08:36.

updates on that story. We are going to talk about Tyson

:08:37.:08:46.

Fury and the difficult times he has had since becoming world heavyweight

:08:47.:08:53.

boxing champion. He has now vacated his titles.

:08:54.:08:54.

Here is the statement from the boxer.

:08:55.:09:03.

Here's Ian Haslam looking at what's next for Tyson Fury.

:09:04.:09:13.

If becoming heavyweight champion of the world was the high point of

:09:14.:09:19.

Tyson Fury's career, giving up his titles is surely the lowest. His

:09:20.:09:22.

uncle and trainer says the focus now is on his fight outside the boxing

:09:23.:09:27.

ring. It just shows you, be heavyweight champion of the world

:09:28.:09:30.

can be struck down with this, then it is a major problem. Tyson is not

:09:31.:09:37.

a weak minded person. He is totally the opposite. Depression is a big

:09:38.:09:42.

thing in today's society and it is a good thing he has come to terms with

:09:43.:09:45.

it. This morning his boxing licence was temporarily revoked after

:09:46.:09:50.

further investigation into anti-doping and medical issues. He

:09:51.:09:54.

was charged with doping offence in June, month after speaking to the

:09:55.:09:58.

BBC is the newly crowned world champion. I want to do something

:09:59.:10:04.

positive with my status rather than the usual stuff of buying crazy

:10:05.:10:08.

stuff and all that. I'm not really into that, I want to help Mike Ellis

:10:09.:10:12.

humans. But his fight with the make that it was his last to date and he

:10:13.:10:17.

has twice withdrawn from reactors -- my fellow humans. The main thing is

:10:18.:10:23.

that he get over his depression. But I can tell you he will be back. The

:10:24.:10:28.

decision that will be made by the British boxing board of control.

:10:29.:10:36.

That raises the prospect of Wladimir Klitschko biting Anthony Joshua. Not

:10:37.:10:40.

confirmed and a lot of talk about that -- fighting. Eddie Hearn had

:10:41.:10:44.

said that it could be a possibility. Now an update on story

:10:45.:10:49.

we had yesterday. Predictably, the Australian tennis

:10:50.:10:51.

player Nick Kyrgios will have to pay $16,500 in fines for his behaviour

:10:52.:10:54.

at the Shanghai Masters. Once you see these pictures you'll

:10:55.:11:00.

see why it's predictable. You can't play like that. He wasn't

:11:01.:11:31.

trying which was always going to get him in trouble. He gave a press

:11:32.:11:34.

conference afterwards when he was suddenly not contrite. This is how

:11:35.:11:37.

it breaks down. One spectator called out and

:11:38.:11:47.

complained about are not trying and he did not respond very well. It is

:11:48.:11:55.

all money he can afford but you suspect it is not an episode that he

:11:56.:11:56.

has enjoyed. Jessica Ennis-Hill is one

:11:57.:11:58.

of the biggest stars Here is the announcement

:11:59.:12:00.

on Instagram. The heptathalon star says it's one

:12:01.:12:08.

of the toughest decisions There are also a few

:12:09.:12:10.

photos from her career. This was her on super Saturday when

:12:11.:12:17.

she won gold at London 2012. Then she won her second

:12:18.:12:23.

World Championships title in 2015 At the time she said she would not

:12:24.:12:25.

rush a decision over But to she said "retiring

:12:26.:12:35.

now - is right". In a little while we would go -- we

:12:36.:12:52.

will go to Rwanda because there is a huge scientific gathering looking at

:12:53.:12:57.

banning certain gases to try to deal with time a change.

:12:58.:13:03.

How would your children feel if they spent more time

:13:04.:13:05.

in the classroom in order to have more time out of it?

:13:06.:13:08.

Well, two schools in Hampshire, in the South of England,

:13:09.:13:10.

The plans would mean pupils staying in class for an extra 25 minutes

:13:11.:13:15.

each day with half-term breaks extended by a week.

:13:16.:13:18.

They say it's is the best days of your life so why not make the days

:13:19.:13:32.

longer? My concern will be working families come with childcare costs,

:13:33.:13:36.

this will be a worry for a lot of single parents and working families.

:13:37.:13:39.

It would make every thing harder, I have a child and make him harder to

:13:40.:13:46.

get to and from school. The school day here start at 8:50am, the

:13:47.:13:51.

proposal is to move that forward 15 minutes to 8:35am. The day would

:13:52.:13:57.

also be extended by ten minutes and in total that adds up to 37 hours of

:13:58.:14:03.

teaching time the school year. To offset this, the proposal is to

:14:04.:14:08.

extend the May and October after holidays to two weeks rather than

:14:09.:14:12.

one, a move that could help parent avoid the usual half Tim Peake costs

:14:13.:14:18.

when going on holiday. Although our main reason is about learning, but

:14:19.:14:22.

we have the holidays as well. A lot of parents want to take their

:14:23.:14:26.

children out at this time of year and also in May. Some of the parents

:14:27.:14:34.

that work will like the fact they can come here and a lot of the

:14:35.:14:38.

children, they are here anyway so let's get them in and start

:14:39.:14:41.

learning. She is quite exhausted when she comes home so I don't know

:14:42.:14:45.

if doing an extra few minutes would help her. The teachers know best for

:14:46.:14:53.

the children. We are not teachers, they know what they are doing and

:14:54.:14:56.

they do a good job, particularly here, it's a good school. And I'm

:14:57.:15:01.

guided by their wisdom. A primary school in Kent has already extended

:15:02.:15:05.

it day by 20 minutes while similar proposals are being considered at a

:15:06.:15:08.

school in Brighton so what about elsewhere in Hampshire? All that

:15:09.:15:14.

could happen to the countywide scheme would be that we would be

:15:15.:15:19.

able to tweak it. As we have at a steady drip and to set those states,

:15:20.:15:24.

given by the government, I don't think we would be able to make major

:15:25.:15:30.

change -- statutory expectation to set the dates. Any changes would

:15:31.:15:36.

come in the force from September next year if approved.

:15:37.:15:42.

Thank you for joining me. We lived in the BBC newsroom. The lead story

:15:43.:15:53.

is that Thailand is mourning the death of King Bhumibol Adulyadej who

:15:54.:15:55.

passed away at the age of 88. This is hot off the press. We have

:15:56.:16:12.

had two important speeches with reference to the US election.

:16:13.:16:15.

Michelle Obama has been speaking at a rally supporting Hillary Clinton

:16:16.:16:20.

and addressing the allegations of sexual misconduct that have been

:16:21.:16:25.

levelled at Donald Trump. Mr Trump has been pushing back furiously at

:16:26.:16:30.

those allegations and denying them. Both of these speeches were going on

:16:31.:16:35.

at almost exactly the same time. David was watching both of them.

:16:36.:16:53.

These vicious claims about me of inappropriate conduct with women are

:16:54.:17:07.

totally and absolutely false. It now seems very clear that this is not an

:17:08.:17:11.

isolated incident, it is one of countless examples of how he has

:17:12.:17:14.

treated women his whole life and I have to tell you that I listen to

:17:15.:17:18.

all of this and I feel it so personally. These lies, from outlets

:17:19.:17:26.

whose past story and claims have already been discredited. The belief

:17:27.:17:31.

that you can do anything you want to a woman? It is cruel. It is

:17:32.:17:40.

frightening. And the truth is, it hurts. The establishment and their

:17:41.:17:47.

media enablers with control over this nation through means that are

:17:48.:17:53.

very well known. Anyone who challenges their control is deemed

:17:54.:18:00.

as sexist, racist, a xenophobe! It is that feeling of terror and

:18:01.:18:05.

violation that too many women have felt when somebody has grabbed them

:18:06.:18:09.

or forced himself on them and they have said no but he did not listen.

:18:10.:18:17.

They will lie, lie, lie. The Clintons are criminals, remember

:18:18.:18:21.

that. We thought all of that was ancient history, didn't we? And so

:18:22.:18:27.

many have worked for so many years to end this kind of violence and

:18:28.:18:30.

abuse and this respect but here we are. I never knew it would be this

:18:31.:18:39.

vile, this bad, this vicious. Nevertheless, I take all of these

:18:40.:18:48.

slings and arrows gladly for you. 2016 and we are hearing these exact

:18:49.:18:53.

same things every day on the campaign trail. We are drowning in

:18:54.:18:57.

it. And all of us are doing what women have always done. We are

:18:58.:19:02.

trying to keep our heads above water, just trying to get through

:19:03.:19:07.

it. Our great civilisation here in America and across the civilised

:19:08.:19:12.

world has come upon a moment of reckoning. Very interesting seeing

:19:13.:19:21.

those speeches juxtaposed. Mr Trump saying he could not believe how

:19:22.:19:25.

vicious it has become for him. I think most of us watching this

:19:26.:19:29.

cannot believe how vicious the whole thing has become.

:19:30.:19:37.

Talk about hydrofluorocarbons, or HFCs.

:19:38.:19:40.

There's a fresh push for a global ban because of their contribution

:19:41.:19:43.

Just so you know what we're talking about, HFCs are used in aerosol

:19:44.:19:47.

spray cans and refridgeration and air conditioning too.

:19:48.:19:49.

Here's one scientist with why he thinks they should be banned.

:19:50.:19:58.

HFCs are incredibly powerful greenhouse gases, thousands more

:19:59.:20:05.

Taione more powerful than CO2 -- thousand more times. If we can

:20:06.:20:09.

contain, it could help to reduce global warming by half a degree over

:20:10.:20:10.

the rest of the century. One of many scientists from almost

:20:11.:20:12.

200 countries who are in Kigali in Rwanda to discuss

:20:13.:20:15.

so-called greenhouse gases. This was on the question of whether

:20:16.:20:29.

they should go or not and the question is the timing. Countries

:20:30.:20:34.

like India and Pakistan say they want longer to get rid of these

:20:35.:20:40.

gases. Countries like the EU and the US and many African countries are

:20:41.:20:43.

pushing for an early opt out, they want them gone by 2020, 2021, and

:20:44.:20:49.

they believe we can gain major benefits in terms of cooling the

:20:50.:20:52.

planet if we get rid of them earlier. Other countries say it will

:20:53.:20:55.

cost too much money and they want longer. Do we have the necessary

:20:56.:21:01.

technology to replace them with something of infringes or air

:21:02.:21:07.

conditioning units? -- in fridges. There are a lot of different

:21:08.:21:10.

options. One of the gas is most likely to take the places in fridges

:21:11.:21:15.

is CO2 than something we have been trying to get rid of because it

:21:16.:21:20.

causes global warming but it is Bilic has been used for a long time.

:21:21.:21:25.

It would make fridges more expensive and air conditioning in cars more

:21:26.:21:28.

expensive. The countries he believed that price is worth paying and if

:21:29.:21:33.

they get momentum going and every country behind it, they believe the

:21:34.:21:37.

cost of those fridges and cars and all of the cooling equipment will

:21:38.:21:41.

come down rapidly. It would go up in the short term and people would need

:21:42.:21:44.

to get new fridges and freezers, and they think the price will be worth

:21:45.:21:48.

it and it would come down in the next ten years or so. You have

:21:49.:21:53.

helped explain the Paris agreement with as many times. How does what is

:21:54.:21:58.

happening in Kigali fit into that? That's a good point. The people here

:21:59.:22:05.

believe this is the third prong of an extremely important agreement.

:22:06.:22:09.

The Paris agreement came last in limiting global damages writing to 2

:22:10.:22:16.

degrees. We have at cutting of emissions on aeroplanes and we might

:22:17.:22:21.

be getting an agreement on these chemicals. If they get those, the

:22:22.:22:25.

world would be in a much better place going into 2017 and in the

:22:26.:22:29.

last couple of years. It is not a done deal yet, there is much that

:22:30.:22:33.

could happen but people here believe that if they can get this deal tied

:22:34.:22:36.

up with the others, they will put the world on a good footing, not

:22:37.:22:41.

great, but better than it was. We are finishing in Rwanda. Thank you

:22:42.:22:48.

for watching. We will be back with you as usual next week. Goodbye.

:22:49.:23:04.

Good evening, this is the latest from the BBC sport Centre. Jessica
