Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source. | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
British MP's have voted for the government to begin | :00:13. | :00:14. | |
The bill was never in any doubt, but a key amendment, | :00:15. | :00:20. | |
guaranteeing the rights of EU nationals already in | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
One of the Democrats' top senator has been silenced by the leader | :00:23. | :00:34. | |
of the Senate for breaking the rules. | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
Senator Warren said Senator Sessions has used the awesome power of his | :00:39. | :00:47. | |
office to chill the free exercise of the vote by black citizens. | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
We'll be live in Washington in a moment. | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
We're also going to talk about Donald Trump. | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
It would be so great for our justice system if they would be able to read | :00:54. | :01:04. | |
The most high-profile opposition figure in Russia has been been found | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
Alexei Navalny can no longer run for president next year. | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
If you want to get in touch at any time, you can at #BBC OS. | :01:14. | :01:36. | |
British MPs have voted to allow the Government to formally begin | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
the process of leaving the European Union. | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
the process of leaving the European Union. | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Didn't have one to the right 494, the noes to the left, 122. -- the | :01:50. | :02:08. | |
ayes to the right, 494. The ayes to the right 494, the noes to the left, | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
122. The ayes habit, the ayes habit! The bill will now move | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
onto the Upper House - If the Lords make any | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
changes to the bill, it will be considered again | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
by the Commons. We can join Rob Watson | :02:26. | :02:27. | |
at Westminster now. We knew this Bill was going to go | :02:28. | :02:38. | |
through but what have we learned from the results? It is a moment of | :02:39. | :02:46. | |
history. This will go down as a key moment in European history and | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
Britain's departure from the European Union. What have we | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
learned? That although most MPs personally voted to Remain, this was | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
the power of the referendum, with most of the MPs despite what they | :03:02. | :03:06. | |
think of the possible consequences of Brexit, falling in behind this | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
love that Theresa May once past so she can fired the starting gun. | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
Before they voted for the bill overall, MPs spent hours voting | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
on amendments to the bill, none of them passed. | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
The one that was getting the most attention was probably from Harriet | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
Harman who said. Not enough of them date. Was that | :03:26. | :03:43. | |
expected? Yes, it was. The interesting thing here is what that | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
tells you about the process that lies ahead and the various | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
complexities and big issues. We still don't know exactly how that | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
will be resolved, what will happen to do the many EU nationals living | :03:59. | :04:07. | |
here. I is trade going to work, how will banking work? Hi Will movement | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
and immigration of people? Rather than getting bogged down with the | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
Parliamentary process here in the UK, what was instructive about that | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
is just how complex this process of Britain leaving the eerie -- leaving | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
the European Union is likely to be. He's referring to this headline | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
in The Herald newspaper - "Support for independence surges | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
on hard Brexit vow". That is related to Theresa May | :04:33. | :04:51. | |
saying that Britain will leave the single market. It doesn't | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
necessarily mean we will get a second referendum, does it? It does, | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
but those who wanted Britain to remain in the European Union feared | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
his threat to the United Kingdom itself. The Scottish National Party | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
sense an opportunity. The opinion polls may be moving in that | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
direction. It is not a done deal that there is no doubt that the | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
union of the United Kingdom is shakier now than it was some weeks | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
and months ago. One final thoughts, what happens next is that Theresa | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
May will be hoping to have this law and trigger the process of Britain | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
leaving the European Union at an EU summit on the 9th of March. That is | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
where a real challenge begins, getting a good deal with the other | :05:41. | :05:47. | |
EU 27. The staff in the Parliament was a relative piece of cake. A lot | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
of these MPs are deeply worried about Brexit and will be watching | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
these negotiations closely indeed. Thank you very much. If you want | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
lots of background information on the Brexit processed you can find it | :06:05. | :06:09. | |

Things are getting spikey in the US Senate. | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
The confirmation hearing for Attorney General nominee | :06:14. | :06:15. | |
But Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren has been banned from speaking | :06:16. | :06:26. | |
She'd read out a 30-year-old letter written by the widow | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
The letter contains the accusation that Mr Sessions had "used | :06:30. | :06:37. | |
the awesome powers of his office in a shabby attempt to intimidate | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
The senator has impugned the motives and conduct of our member for | :06:41. | :07:03. | |
Alabama. Senator Warren said Senator session has used the awesome power | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
of his office to chill the free exercise of the vote by black | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
citizens. I called the senator to order under the provision of rule | :07:13. | :07:22. | |
19. Mr President... Mr President, I am surprised that the words of Mrs | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
King are not suitable for debate in the United States Senate. I as leave | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
of the Senate to continue my remarks. | :07:34. | :07:34. | |
Mitch McConnell, the Republican majority leader, judged that to have | :07:35. | :07:49. | |
Mitch McConnell, the Republican majority leader, judged that to have | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
We can go to Washington now and join Anthony Zurcher. | :07:55. | :08:01. | |
In trying to get quietened in this debate, they have Nato into a | :08:02. | :08:11. | |
liberal marker. This is putting Elizabeth Warren in touch with the | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
Democratic base and pushing her to the forefront of the 2020 race for | :08:16. | :08:23. | |
the Democratic presidential nomination. They might have thought | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
they were taking someone who was in punching the qualities of a | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
colleague, but what they have done is turn this into a multi-day | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
controversy. The data is captured looking ahead to the next | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
presidential election! I can't help myself! | :08:41. | :08:41. | |
Donald Trump addressed police chiefs earlier. | :08:42. | :08:43. | |
Inevitably he turned to his travel ban which is currently suspended. | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
I don't ever want to call a court biased, so I won't call it biased | :08:52. | :08:59. | |
and we haven't had a decision yet. But courts seem to be so political | :09:00. | :09:06. | |
and it would be so great for our justice system if they would be able | :09:07. | :09:14. | |
to read a statement and do what is right, and that has to do with the | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
security of our country, which is so important. Right now we are at risk | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
because of what happened. A US Appeals court has | :09:21. | :09:29. | |
said it will not deliver a ruling on Donald Trump's | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
immigration ban today. How Washington -based journalist has | :09:34. | :09:49. | |
said this. Would you agree with that analysis, | :09:50. | :10:05. | |
or is that too strong? Donald Trump has profited over the course of his | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
political rise in questioning established norms and political | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
power structures. That is part of why his base like sin. It is unusual | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
to see a president so directly question the judgment of the | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
judicial system. He almost acknowledges that he is going to use | :10:25. | :10:33. | |
-- lose this case. He is commenting on a court while they are | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
considering his case, that is extraordinary. I think he is trying | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
to rally the base and laid the blame of any future terrorist attacks of | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
the judiciary because he doesn't think he will win in the court room. | :10:50. | :10:57. | |
Anthony, thank you very much. In a few minutes we will talk to a court | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
case in Russia. Alexei Navalny is a leading Russian | :11:02. | :11:03. | |
opposition figure and he's just been The former entertainer Rolf Harris | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
has been found not guilty of three counts of indecent | :11:06. | :11:17. | |
and sexual assault. A jury at Southwark Crown court | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
was unable to reach verdicts on four The allegations in this trial | :11:21. | :11:22. | |
spanned a 40-year period Our correspondent Sangita Myska has | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
been at Southwark Crown Court. The prosecution has already asked to | :11:26. | :11:39. | |
go our way to consider as to whether it can have a retrial on those kinds | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
were the jury could not reach a verdict. In the meantime, Rolf | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
Harris issued a statement in which he thanked the jury for the care and | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
consideration and for clearing him of three counts of indecent assault | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
today. Rolf Harris has protested his innocence throughout this trial but | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
he did not walk out of court today a free man. Instead, he is heading | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
back to Stanford prison because it is there that he is already serving | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
a sentence for indecently assaulting four other women and girls. That | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
trial was back in 2014. This is Outside Source live | :12:14. | :12:21. | |
from the BBC newsroom. British MP's have voted | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
for the Government to begin proceedings to leave the EU | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
by a huge majority. South Africa's President, | :12:28. | :12:37. | |
Jacob Zuma, has ordered the deployment of about 440 troops | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
to maintain law and order in Parliament for his State | :12:43. | :12:45. | |
of the Nation address on Thursday. Opposition parties have | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
called the decision It's Mohamed Abdullahi Farmajo - | :12:51. | :12:51. | |
he was selected by MPs. The vote has been | :12:52. | :13:00. | |
postponed for four years. But it finally happened | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
at Mogadishu Airport, which one of the few places | :13:04. | :13:05. | |
where security can be guaranteed. Somalia has not had a one-person | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
one-vote democratic The Yemeni Government has told | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
America it must coordinate with it on any future military missions | :13:11. | :13:35. | |
on the ground. Last month a US commando | :13:36. | :13:37. | |
raid didn't go plan. It happened on January 29th | :13:38. | :13:39. | |
and targeted an al-Qaeda stronghold near a town called Al-Bayda | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
in southern Yemen. More than a dozen civilians | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
were killed, including children. Here's Mohamed Yehia | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
from BBC Arabic. This story started this morning with | :13:47. | :14:09. | |
withdrawal of permission from the Yemeni government to the American | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
government to carry out ground operations. We have been trying all | :14:15. | :14:18. | |
day to get through to the Yemeni government to ask this question but | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
they have not applied. They said they did not withdraw permission for | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
the Americans to conduct operations against Al-Qaeda and other terrorist | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
groups, but they have reservations about the operations that happened | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
on the 29th of January and they want to coordinate future operations with | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
the Americans. The target was an Al-Qaeda base, heavily guarded | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
cluster of buildings over there. Among the people killed the was an | :14:50. | :14:57. | |
Al-Qaeda local commander, but he is also linked to tribal forces who are | :14:58. | :15:06. | |
fighting people who are fighting alongside Saudi Arabia. This is | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
where it gets murky and detentions get high amongst the Yemeni | :15:10. | :15:12. | |
officials. So, in some ways they can be helpful | :15:13. | :15:21. | |
in fighting the rebels? It is a web of intermingled tribals. But | :15:22. | :15:27. | |
indirectly? The sky is thought to be an Al-Qaeda leader but he is also | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
allied to tribal porters who are fighting against the who sees. We | :15:32. | :15:44. | |
tried to bring you the best of information from around the world. | :15:45. | :15:46. | |
Let's go to Russia. Russia's most prominent opposition | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
leader is Alexei Navalny and he's has been given a five-year suspended | :15:50. | :15:51. | |
sentence for embezzlement. This was a retrial and he got | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
the the sentence is the same Navalny tweeted from the courtroom | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
"Even the witness statements are Although this time they were of | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
course in a different order. Navalny claims both trials | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
were politically motivated. He was intending to run | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
for president in 2018. This is his official | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
campaign website. Today's verdict means | :16:15. | :16:16. | |
he's barred from running TRANSLATION: what we have seen | :16:17. | :16:38. | |
neither is a sort of telegrams sent from the Kremlin saying that they | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
believe that I, my team and the people whose views I voice too | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
dangerous to take part in the election campaign. Nevertheless, we | :16:47. | :16:52. | |
don't recognise this ruling. It will be overturned. I have every right to | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
take part in the election according to the Constitution and I will do | :16:57. | :16:57. | |
so. I wanted to know if there is any | :16:58. | :16:59. | |
evidence that this trial suffered OS regular Olga Ivshina from BBC | :17:00. | :17:02. | |
Russian helped me out. The European Court of Human Rights | :17:03. | :17:15. | |
has ruled that the case was politically motivated and that is | :17:16. | :17:19. | |
the reason why the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation had to send | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
this case for a retrial. If you carefully look at the materials of | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
the case it is quite weird. Many guys who are giving testimony back | :17:29. | :17:34. | |
in 2013 and this time the could not answer the questions, they could | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
barely remember what was going on. There were more questions than | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
answers in this case. The ruling of the European Court of Human Rights | :17:44. | :17:48. | |
tells us a lot. How does a suspended sentence work in Russia? The thing | :17:49. | :17:52. | |
that is important in this case is that according to the Russian | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
Constitution, people found guilty of serious crimes, they are not allowed | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
to run for presidential campaigns. They can't participate in any | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
elections as a candidate. On the other hand, today's ruling put it | :18:07. | :18:12. | |
all back to stage one. It is a huge saga now because temp can appeal, | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
prosecutors can appeal and that will go back and forth. They can go up to | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
the Supreme Court again and again he can go to the European Court of | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
Human Rights. What is playing against Alexei Navalny this time | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
because he wants to run for the presidential campaign and the last | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
if you can register is December 2,000 17. This week President Putin | :18:33. | :18:39. | |
signed into law and you measure that decriminalise some forms domestic | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
violence, a first offence that results in minor harm to a woman | :18:44. | :18:47. | |
such as lacerations or bruising is will not be considered criminal. | :18:48. | :18:54. | |
This has caused huge controversy around the world. Is it causing | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
controversy in Russia? Not that much, to be honest. There is an old | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
Russian saying that if a husband beats you it mean to loves you. Not | :19:04. | :19:12. | |
supported by many people. Domestic violence is spreading in Russia and | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
according to activists of the 87% of the cases do not get reported, so | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
nobody goes to the police and reports. He basically took corporate | :19:21. | :19:28. | |
bad thing, saying that the law on domestic violence is not working, | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
but the way they changed it has raised a lot of discussions because | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
people are not reading laws that deeply. They heard on TV is that it | :19:37. | :19:41. | |
this could spark a lot of violence. this could spark a lot of violence. | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
Was it supported by a lot of women MPs? By a huge majority in the | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
Russian State Parliament, but we need to remember that in that | :19:52. | :19:55. | |
parliament party discipline very important, so if the chief of the | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
party told them to vote they would because it is part of the | :20:00. | :20:01. | |
discipline. US media giant Time Warner | :20:02. | :20:13. | |
is in a pretty good It's released better than expected | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
results for the fourth quarter - revenue is up 11.5% - | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
and the company's CEO Jeff Bewkes said today | :20:21. | :20:22. | |
the $85 billion merger with AT - CEO Randall Stephenson, | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
is still on track. There's one problem though - | :20:28. | :20:29. | |
this man is opposed to the deal. On the campaign trail he said "It's | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
too much concentration of power Let's go to New York. Samir Ek, the | :20:33. | :20:51. | |
president was not keen when he said the Pope would he have any influence | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
over whether this happens? He has echoed those few since becoming | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
president, saying that he does not believe that this merger should | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
happen. If you look on the part of these two companies, Time Warner, it | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
owns CNN. CNN has received quite a lot of press, so to speak, from | :21:15. | :21:21. | |
Donald Trump. He does not like them as a media organisation. If you look | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
at AT they are trying really hard to make sure this gets pushed | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
through by regulators. It has been reported that they are on a big | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
trump offensive in Washington and have more than a dozen lobbyists | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
working behind the scenes to make sure that this gets pushed through. | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
The one thing that is happening here that is interesting is that it is | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
not just president Trump he is against it, but there are | :21:47. | :21:54. | |
republicans and Democrats who have spoken out against this merger. It | :21:55. | :21:56. | |
comes at a time in which we are seeing a lot of this kind of | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
consolidation and that is bringing about some concern amongst people. | :22:00. | :22:00. | |
Thank you very much. I got discrete from David dashed | :22:01. | :22:12. | |
tweet from David in the UK saying interestingly, no coverage on the | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
BBC of the Intel investment pledge yet. The problem was I had not been | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
on air after I had heard of that story. Here is Donald Trump saying | :22:22. | :22:28. | |
thanks to the CEO of Intel, a great investment of $7 billion in what he | :22:29. | :22:32. | |
calls in American innovation and jobs. He has been at the White House | :22:33. | :22:42. | |
talking with the president. This is Brian, you should say a few words. | :22:43. | :22:48. | |
It is an honour to be here today representing Intel. To be able to | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
announce our 7 billion dollar investment in the most advanced | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
factory in Chandler, Arizona. We will be completing that factory to | :23:02. | :23:06. | |
make the most advanced semiconductor chips on the planet. | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
Let's look at the mania. A snowstorm, a mild earthquake, power | :23:13. | :23:20. | |
blackouts have all been going on the people are still demonstrating and | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
the temperature is minus three Celsius. It is day nine of these | :23:26. | :23:30. | |
protests. Most of them have been happening in the capital, Bucharest. | :23:31. | :23:33. | |
Here are some of the latest pictures. This all began after a | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
decree that weakened anti-corruption laws. The decree was overturned at | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
the weekend, but the protests go on. They want the government gone. Here | :23:45. | :23:52. | |
are some protesters explaining why. We are keeping our petition strong | :23:53. | :23:55. | |
and we want our government to resign because we can't trust them. They | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
come in in the middle of the night to pass corrupt laws for corrupt | :24:02. | :24:05. | |
politicians. We will keep coming every night until they resign. We | :24:06. | :24:13. | |
want to make the point that you cannot accuse the people like this | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
and sustain power. It will not happen any more. Today the | :24:19. | :24:23. | |
government survived a no-confidence vote. The president has also been | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
dying talking to the protesters. The president has a largely ceremonial | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
role, but the protesters were shouting for him to resign of the | :24:35. | :24:35. | |
same. Today the focus shifted to | :24:36. | :24:46. | |
Parliament and a no-confidence vote in the social Democrat Liberal | :24:47. | :24:50. | |
coalition government. On paper there are still strong, only being in | :24:51. | :24:54. | |
power a month, but in practice they have been badly wounded by the size | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
of the protest against them. This is a country were demonstrations are | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
often successful, only two years ago a previous social Democratic | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
government was brought down, also after a corruption scandal. | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
Protesters are well organised with excellent communications. The | :25:13. | :25:18. | |
protesters have an important ally in the president. When he accused the | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
governing social Democrats of defending their own corrupt | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
interests, the MPs left the chamber. All eyes in Romania are not on what | :25:28. | :25:33. | |
the government will do next. Just had a message from somebody watching | :25:34. | :25:40. | |
in Mumbai in India saying there is more online on the story about the | :25:41. | :25:42. | |
main opposition figure in Russia being given a five-year suspended | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
sentence. If you go to the front page of the BBC News website, click | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
on the Europe tag and you will find extensive coverage of that. I will | :25:52. | :25:55. | |
be back with you in a couple of minutes for the second half of | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
outside source. Memories of the drought that has | :25:58. | :26:13. | |
been gripping California over recent years quickly fading away. Another | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
weather system is moving in from the Pacific to bring heavy rain, not | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
that we need any more that just at the moment because we have seen some | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
pretty nasty flooding in parts of California over recent days. Roads | :26:26. | :26:30. | |
have been turned to rivers. There is more rain on the way. Across the | :26:31. | :26:34. | |
north-east of the United States it is a different problem. The pressure | :26:35. | :26:38. | |
will bring a spell of snow as we head through the | :26:39. | :26:55. | |
night into Thursday. Anyone planning to catch a transatlantic flight bear | :26:56. | :26:59. | |
this in mind as it could get as much as 25 centimetres of snow. There | :27:00. | :27:01. | |
will be disruption to the roads and airports and it could be flight | :27:02. | :27:04. | |
cancellations. This was the scene in Vancouver, and mass snowball fight | :27:05. | :27:07. | |
as we have seen lots of heavy still here over recent days. There will be | :27:08. | :27:09. | |
more of that before the snow turns back to rain on Thursday. We have a | :27:10. | :27:12. | |
relatively mild there are pushing into the midwest, bitterly cold and | :27:13. | :27:14. | |
central Canada. Temperatures as a maximum of -15 in Winnipeg. In | :27:15. | :27:19. | |
Europe, a big area of high pressure in Scandinavia, cold easterly winds | :27:20. | :27:23. | |
feeding in across much of Eastern Europe brings cloudy skies and snow | :27:24. | :27:28. | |
flurries. By the skies in the Mediterranean, bringing rough seas | :27:29. | :27:31. | |
and gale force gusts of wind and outbreaks of rain that will be back | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
in Corsica, Sardinia and mainland Italy and Sicily. Some of those | :27:37. | :27:43. | |
heavy showers will move into the North of Tunisia and north-east | :27:44. | :27:50. | |
Algeria as we go through Thursday. In our weather, the clues to what is | :27:51. | :27:55. | |
happening lie in the jet stream. War on terror is being pushed up into | :27:56. | :27:59. | |
the Arctic, building this big area of high pressure in Scandinavia that | :28:00. | :28:03. | |
is going nowhere fast in the next few days. On the southern flanker | :28:04. | :28:12. | |
that high, we get these winds moving across the continent into the UK. | :28:13. | :28:15. | |
Temperatures will be below par for the next few days and the rest of | :28:16. | :28:19. | |
the week will be cloudy. It will turn colder and the cloud will be | :28:20. | :28:23. | |
thick enough for some snow showers at times. Here is the picture to | :28:24. | :28:26. | |
take us through the night. A lot of cloud around, but under the clear | :28:27. | :28:31. | |
skies it will be cold. The temperature potentially getting down | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
to -3 in western parts of England, Scotland and Wales. Temperatures | :28:36. | :28:41. | |
hovering close to freezing on the East Coast because we have that | :28:42. | :28:46. | |
cloud here back could turn to snow overnight into Thursday. There could | :28:47. | :28:51. | |
places, but otherwise I cloudy and places, but otherwise I cloudy and | :28:52. | :28:55. | |
cold day with a bitter wind. That is your latest weather. Bye for now. | :28:56. | :30:18. | |
Hello, I'm Ros Atkins - this is Outside Source. | :30:19. | :30:20. | |
Brexit gets a step closer to happening. | :30:21. | :30:25. | |
The bill was never in any doubt, but a key amendment guaranteeing | :30:26. | :30:35. | |
the rights of EU nationals already in the UK was not passed. | :30:36. | :30:38. | |
Donald Trump is unhappy with how long it's taking | :30:39. | :30:40. | |
Mark Urban's been investigating how easy it'll be to get things done | :30:41. | :30:44. | |
There is no obedience with this Congress and there never has been | :30:45. | :30:55. | |
but I do not think with this president, there will be. | :30:56. | :30:57. | |
The Dakota Access oil pipeline was the focus of mass protests | :30:58. | :31:00. | |
Its construction had been suspended, but now it's got the go-ahead | :31:01. | :31:04. | |
And Qatar is spending $500 million a week on World Cup preparations. | :31:05. | :31:09. | |
We'll look at what it's getting for its money. | :31:10. | :31:40. | |
As Donald Trump keeps reminding us the confirmation hearings | :31:41. | :31:42. | |
Today, the Senate will vote Jeff Sessions, who is Donald Trump's | :31:43. | :31:46. | |
And the President isn't happy about the pace of this. | :31:47. | :31:50. | |
"It is a disgrace that my full Cabinet | :31:51. | :31:51. | |
is still not in place, the longest such delay | :31:52. | :31:54. | |
That's not true, by the way - it's not the longest such delay. | :31:55. | :32:04. | |
Anyhow, it is very likely Mr Trump will get the cabinet he wants. | :32:05. | :32:07. | |
But he will still face significant challenges | :32:08. | :32:09. | |
if he wants his main policies through. | :32:10. | :32:11. | |
And this next report, by the Mark Urban from the BBC's | :32:12. | :32:13. | |
Newsnight programme, looks at just that. | :32:14. | :32:17. | |
You can come here, promising to drain the swamp or dethrone | :32:18. | :32:19. | |
the establishment, but this city has a way of protecting its interests, | :32:20. | :32:22. | |
slowing down those who challenge its ways. | :32:23. | :32:24. | |
So the Trump administration's process of nominating a Cabinet | :32:25. | :32:26. | |
This level of obstruction at the beginning of an administration | :32:27. | :32:31. | |
is really record-setting in a very unfortunate way. | :32:32. | :32:33. | |
While the Senate have blamed the Democrats for the go slow, | :32:34. | :32:36. | |
they don't have the numbers to wreck Trump's agenda. | :32:37. | :32:41. | |
Rather, it's doubts among Republicans that could pose the most | :32:42. | :32:44. | |
Keen to impress the people who voted for him, President Trump has signed | :32:45. | :32:48. | |
some highly significant and emotive executive orders. | :32:49. | :32:50. | |
But you can't run the country by those alone, particularly when it | :32:51. | :32:52. | |
comes to spending money or changing existing laws. | :32:53. | :33:05. | |
For that, you need to go up to the Hill and get people | :33:06. | :33:08. | |
Thousands of people work on the Hill in offices so widely spread, | :33:09. | :33:16. | |
Things here travel at the speed legislators can work with. | :33:17. | :33:27. | |
As many presidents elected on a reform ticket have discovered. | :33:28. | :33:37. | |
John has been a Hill insider for the best part of 20 years. | :33:38. | :33:41. | |
With a Republican majority of just two in the Senate, | :33:42. | :33:43. | |
he sees particular risks there for the White House. | :33:44. | :33:47. | |
The members of the Senate especially, because they have | :33:48. | :33:49. | |
these six-year terms, they have tremendous power, they can | :33:50. | :33:51. | |
gum up the works any time they want, and you'll see that, | :33:52. | :33:54. | |
especially for some Republicans who don't really like Donald Trump | :33:55. | :33:56. | |
or trust him, they will step up and say what they feel. | :33:57. | :34:07. | |
So there is no obedience with this Congress, there never has been but, | :34:08. | :34:11. | |
but especially with this President, I don't think there ever will be. | :34:12. | :34:14. | |
The combination, seen with the nomination Betsy DeVos, | :34:15. | :34:15. | |
of Democrats keen to thwart Trump voting with a small number | :34:16. | :34:18. | |
of dissident Republicans could pose all manner of problems | :34:19. | :34:20. | |
To avoid them, he must stick to policies where | :34:21. | :34:23. | |
he and Congressional Republicans are on the same page. | :34:24. | :34:26. | |
I believe in the need for bilateral agreements with the UK or Japan, | :34:27. | :34:29. | |
We all agree that our tax code is overly complex, | :34:30. | :34:44. | |
there are over 70,000 pages in our tax code, it's too complex. | :34:45. | :34:56. | |
People want it simpler, fairer and in many respects flatter. | :34:57. | :34:59. | |
So that's something we should be focused on and I think | :35:00. | :35:01. | |
we'll find common ground with the administration. | :35:02. | :35:03. | |
Among those on powerful Senate committees, there are already key | :35:04. | :35:05. | |
figures who now challenge Trump on issues such as the handling | :35:06. | :35:08. | |
of his immigrant ban or his professed admiration | :35:09. | :35:10. | |
Are you worried by what the President's been saying? | :35:11. | :35:15. | |
There have been a lot of things said that I wouldn't | :35:16. | :35:18. | |
say but I think that, as time moves on, there'll | :35:19. | :35:20. | |
be a much more coming together on those issues. | :35:21. | :35:22. | |
I think that the administration is just getting going and my sense | :35:23. | :35:25. | |
is that, in the very near future, things will be in the | :35:26. | :35:28. | |
On nominations, health care or Russian sanctions, | :35:29. | :35:48. | |
Trump campaign trail pledges are already being modified | :35:49. | :35:50. | |
As the President starts to spend money, that will intensify. | :35:51. | :36:12. | |
It might know it is time for Outside Source Sport. -- now it is time for. | :36:13. | :36:20. | |
For the first time, a women's bout will headline a night of boxing | :36:21. | :36:24. | |
Star of the show is Claressa Shields. | :36:25. | :36:26. | |
She's the most successful amateur boxer in US history, | :36:27. | :36:29. | |
and a two-time Olympic gold medallist. | :36:30. | :36:30. | |
Now to Hugh Woozencroft, at the BBC Sport Centre. | :36:31. | :36:32. | |
I guess despite her success this is still a sizeable leap up? Yes, | :36:33. | :36:36. | |
hello. It is a sizeable leap. Well, it's interesting, isn't it, | :36:37. | :36:40. | |
the rise of mixed martial arts in recent years has | :36:41. | :36:42. | |
included women's fights? And that popularity, | :36:43. | :36:44. | |
led by the likes of Ronda Rousey, Following that extra | :36:45. | :36:46. | |
attention in women's bouts come more sponsorship | :36:47. | :36:49. | |
and more money and quality. Now the quality in women's boxing | :36:50. | :36:51. | |
has been there for a long long time, so could the rise in professional | :36:52. | :36:54. | |
female boxers spur American Claressa Shields | :36:55. | :36:56. | |
headlines when she takes on Hungary's Szilvia Szabados | :36:57. | :37:13. | |
for North American Boxing Federation title in Detroit | :37:14. | :37:15. | |
on the 10th of March. Shields is just 21, but took Olympic | :37:16. | :37:17. | |
middleweight gold in 2008 and 2012 and with the likes of Olympic | :37:18. | :37:20. | |
champion Katie Taylor of Ireland and Great Britain's Nicola Adams | :37:21. | :37:23. | |
also leaving amateur boxing in favour of the professional ranks, | :37:24. | :37:25. | |
I think we can expect to see much A good start. And just ask you about | :37:26. | :37:47. | |
the FA Cup game? Yes, the replay in the FA Cup between Derby County and | :37:48. | :37:53. | |
Leicester City has just finished. We will see extra time to see which of | :37:54. | :37:57. | |
these two says will get through to the last 16. As it has finished 1-1 | :37:58. | :38:10. | |
at full-time. Thank you, and you can keep up-to-date with that on the BBC | :38:11. | :38:15. | |
sport web page. Take a look at this guy and remember | :38:16. | :38:18. | |
the name - Mohit Ahlawat. He could be cricket's | :38:19. | :38:21. | |
next big thing. He's 21, and has hit 300 in a local | :38:22. | :38:23. | |
Twenty20 match in Delhi. He scored at four runs a ball - | :38:24. | :38:26. | |
which, if you're not into cricket, This was taking place | :38:27. | :38:29. | |
in a game in Delhi. He was playing against a team | :38:30. | :38:34. | |
called Friends 11 - how unfriendly Mohit | :38:35. | :38:36. | |
was to their bowlers! 39, and let me just repeat that - | :38:37. | :38:38. | |
39, sixes he hit, and he also added 14 fours, | :38:39. | :38:41. | |
when he couldn't be bothered He needed 50, basically, | :38:42. | :38:43. | |
off the last two overs. He finished hitting | :38:44. | :38:47. | |
five consecutive sixes. When asked afterwards, | :38:48. | :38:48. | |
he said he felt that he was Continuing our commitment | :38:49. | :38:51. | |
to covering sports that's don't get much coverage, | :38:52. | :39:09. | |
let me show the final moments It doesn't matter how many of these | :39:10. | :39:19. | |
you have potted before, and he has done millions of them, it is the | :39:20. | :39:21. | |
World Championships, the big one. There were entrants from the UK, | :39:22. | :39:22. | |
France, Norway, Ireland, He is perfect, absolutely plum. He | :39:23. | :39:24. | |
from Shooters Sports Bar He is perfect, absolutely plum. He | :39:25. | :39:44. | |
could pot- both... Pot-shot, there will be each cheer after this. And | :39:45. | :39:48. | |
that is the one that clinched it. Congratulations to Craig. | :39:49. | :39:51. | |
We've also been in touch with international bodies | :39:52. | :39:52. | |

More under-reported sports next week on Outside Source. | :39:55. | :39:57. | |
Have you seen how much Qatar is spending on hosting the World Cup? | :39:58. | :40:12. | |
New figures put it at $500 million - a week. | :40:13. | :40:14. | |
By the time it comes round in 2022, it's predicted the bill will be more | :40:15. | :40:18. | |
Brazil spent $11 billion in 2014. | :40:19. | :40:22. | |
Russia is expected to spend $10.7 billion on the 2018 event. | :40:23. | :40:24. | |
This is what the country's finance minister said: | :40:25. | :40:41. | |
With that kind of spending, you wouldn't think there would be | :40:42. | :40:44. | |
What the finance minister was saying, I think, | :40:45. | :40:53. | |
was two things and one was reassurance, because Qatar, | :40:54. | :40:55. | |
like other Gulf countries, has faced quite a fall | :40:56. | :40:58. | |
in its revenue in the last couple of years. | :40:59. | :41:00. | |
There have been a number of cutbacks in a number of its businesses. | :41:01. | :41:03. | |
What he is making clear is that will not affect | :41:04. | :41:05. | |
What he is also making clear, in a sense, is that $200 million, | :41:06. | :41:09. | |
if that is all being spent specifically on the stadiums | :41:10. | :41:12. | |
and the footballing aspect of the World Cup, then that | :41:13. | :41:14. | |
absolutely dwarfs any spending has ever been before in a World Cup. | :41:15. | :41:31. | |
What he was saying is this is the infrastructure | :41:32. | :41:33. | |
being built around it - roads, transport, hotels, | :41:34. | :41:35. | |
So in a sense Qatar is using this a reason to continue with... | :41:36. | :41:39. | |
Obviously there has been huge building for years in Qatar, | :41:40. | :41:42. | |
but to make it infrastructure even bigger and stronger, | :41:43. | :41:44. | |
with the World Cup being the target it is aiming for. | :41:45. | :41:47. | |
And I guess with this huge increase in construction, | :41:48. | :41:49. | |
more questions about how the construction is working, | :41:50. | :41:51. | |
the conditions in which people are working under? | :41:52. | :41:53. | |
Yes, I mean the problem Qatar has with its migrant workers is one | :41:54. | :41:56. | |
again faced across the whole of the Gulf, where they don't have | :41:57. | :41:59. | |
rights - although there are laws which are supposed to protect them, | :42:00. | :42:02. | |
they are not always enforced, and Qatar has faced | :42:03. | :42:04. | |
There have been reports that workers have died on the site. | :42:05. | :42:15. | |
It has turned out I think that most of the deaths that have been | :42:16. | :42:18. | |
reported have not actually be directly connected with | :42:19. | :42:20. | |
the World Cup, but there have been many calls internationally | :42:21. | :42:23. | |
from governments to rights organisations that they need | :42:24. | :42:25. | |
They promised a couple of months ago that there would be | :42:26. | :42:28. | |
Every time a country hosts the World Cup, | :42:29. | :42:42. | |
whether it's South Africa or Brazil, or any others, there is an internal | :42:43. | :42:45. | |
discussion about whether this is money well spent. | :42:46. | :42:47. | |
I don't think that kind of discussion quite happens in Qatar. | :42:48. | :42:52. | |
It has not reached a stage where money is so short | :42:53. | :42:54. | |
that they have to be concerned, but Qatar, like other | :42:55. | :42:57. | |
Gulf countries, again, is going to be undergoing certain | :42:58. | :42:59. | |
changes in the way that it provides for its people | :43:00. | :43:01. | |
VAT, for instance, is going to be introduced across the Gulf. | :43:02. | :43:12. | |
It could be the first element of tax actually being brought in, | :43:13. | :43:15. | |
and obviously when you start having tax people become more | :43:16. | :43:17. | |
concerned about the way their money is being spent. | :43:18. | :43:19. | |
So that process may begin to start happening by the time | :43:20. | :43:22. | |
of the World Cup, but for now I don't think we have to worry. | :43:23. | :43:33. | |
They have a tiny population - 90% of the population | :43:34. | :43:35. | |
Massively bolstered by the numbers, the hundreds of thousands, | :43:36. | :43:39. | |
who comes specifically for the World Cup. | :43:40. | :43:48. | |
You will remember we were covering protests over a proposed oil | :43:49. | :43:56. | |
pipeline in Dakota. President Obama suspended that and President Trump | :43:57. | :43:59. | |
has now intervened and it looks like it will now go ahead. We will bring | :44:00. | :44:00. | |
you details on that. A woman has won an appeal | :44:01. | :44:08. | |
to the Supreme Court after being denied payments | :44:09. | :44:10. | |
from her late partner's Chris Buckler reports | :44:11. | :44:12. | |
on the significance of the case. Denise Brewster had lived | :44:13. | :44:21. | |
with her fiance, Lenny, for ten years and they were making | :44:22. | :44:23. | |
plans for their future. When I look at this picture, | :44:24. | :44:25. | |
I think that's just how we were. He was a fun loving guy, | :44:26. | :44:30. | |
he had lots of friends. But in 2009, just days after | :44:31. | :44:33. | |
they got engaged, he died suddenly. It was such a difficult time and it | :44:34. | :44:41. | |
will always remain difficult for me. But I feel Lenny has | :44:42. | :44:44. | |
given me strength at For 15 years, Lenny worked | :44:45. | :44:46. | |
for Translink, which provides public transport in Northern Ireland and, | :44:47. | :44:58. | |
during that time, like many workers, he paid into a local | :44:59. | :45:00. | |
government pension scheme, which he thought would provide | :45:01. | :45:02. | |
some security for him But when he died, Denise | :45:03. | :45:04. | |
was informed she wouldn't benefit. Because Denise wasn't married, | :45:05. | :45:12. | |
she was told that she wasn't Her partner would have had to have | :45:13. | :45:15. | |
filled out this, a nomination form. She argued that that was a lawful | :45:16. | :45:23. | |
discrimination and today the Supreme Court ruled | :45:24. | :45:25. | |
in her favour. We say that she is entitled | :45:26. | :45:27. | |
to receive a pension and that the nomination requirement | :45:28. | :45:30. | |
should no longer be applied. It's a ruling that could benefit | :45:31. | :45:32. | |
the partners of some other public sector workers like nurses, | :45:33. | :45:35. | |
teachers and civil servants although that could depend | :45:36. | :45:37. | |
on the rules of each There are over 6 million | :45:38. | :45:39. | |
people across the country Many of them are in company | :45:40. | :45:49. | |
pension schemes, public sector pension schemes, | :45:50. | :45:52. | |
and they should be treated equally So I hope all pension schemes | :45:53. | :45:54. | |
will review their rules And the woman who fought this case | :45:55. | :45:58. | |
hopes it will provide greater At least I just had to defend | :45:59. | :46:02. | |
for myself and I had to take my hardships but, | :46:03. | :46:08. | |
when you have other families that have a young daughter or son | :46:09. | :46:11. | |
who are losing their daddy or their mummy, and then | :46:12. | :46:13. | |
they have the financial burden on top of that, | :46:14. | :46:15. | |
the inequality and the injustice And this is a judgment which perhaps | :46:16. | :46:18. | |
reflects changes to what the word This is Outside Source, | :46:19. | :46:23. | |
live from the BBC newsroom. British MPs have voted | :46:24. | :46:49. | |
for the Government to begin proceedings to leave the EU | :46:50. | :46:54. | |
by a huge majority. If you're outside of the UK, | :46:55. | :46:56. | |
it's World News America next. With no decision expected | :46:57. | :47:04. | |
on the travel ban today, they'll be looking at the mood | :47:05. | :47:06. | |
in the US administration with the help of the Time magazines | :47:07. | :47:09. | |
White House correspondent. Here in the UK, the | :47:10. | :47:14. | |
News at Ten is next. Our Europe editor Katya Adler has | :47:15. | :47:21. | |
been looking at the rise of populist Earlier the International Committee | :47:22. | :47:24. | |
of the Red Cross in Afghanistan Confirming that six of its staff had | :47:25. | :47:47. | |
been killed in Afghanistan. We know this happened in the north of the | :47:48. | :47:54. | |
country and an convoy were missing -- an aid convoy was missing. | :47:55. | :48:00. | |
Drivers and five field officers were on their way to deliver some | :48:01. | :48:16. | |
livestock to the needy people of a village in this northern | :48:17. | :48:19. | |
province of Afghanistan, that they were stopped on the way, | :48:20. | :48:21. | |
Six of them were killed, two of them were kidnapped, and we do not know | :48:22. | :48:26. | |
Now, the local officials tell the BBC that they have sent | :48:27. | :48:30. | |
a delegation of elders to that area controlled mainly by Uzbek | :48:31. | :48:32. | |
and militants related to either Isis or Daesh to try to reach a deal | :48:33. | :48:36. | |
to try to release the two staff members. | :48:37. | :48:40. | |
to try to release the two staff members of ICRC. | :48:41. | :48:42. | |
The Taliban, the Afghan government, the ICRC have all have | :48:43. | :48:45. | |
all condemned the attack, and no one has yet taken | :48:46. | :48:47. | |
responsibility for this killing and kidnapping, | :48:48. | :48:49. | |
but the police chief of the province tells us that this area | :48:50. | :48:52. | |
is where most militants loyal to Isis or Daesh operate. | :48:53. | :49:11. | |
Lets move from Afghanistan to North Dakota... | :49:12. | :49:14. | |
The final stage of a controversial oil pipeline in North Dakota has | :49:15. | :49:17. | |
These are pictures from today and also from protests in the past. | :49:18. | :49:28. | |
Opponents of the pipeline have called for worldwide | :49:29. | :49:30. | |
These pictures are from today but the rest | :49:31. | :49:36. | |
The protestors are mainly made up of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe | :49:37. | :49:40. | |
This is the background to this story. | :49:41. | :49:45. | |
The pipeline is supposed to cross four states, | :49:46. | :49:47. | |
to transport crude oil to a terminal in Illinois. | :49:48. | :49:54. | |
Most of it is already built, except for this bit - | :49:55. | :50:04. | |
the section closest to the Standing Rock | :50:05. | :50:05. | |
Members of the tribe say the construction | :50:06. | :50:08. | |
will damage their water supplies and ancestral cultural sites. | :50:09. | :50:10. | |
These protests helped lead to the suspension of construction. | :50:11. | :50:12. | |
That decision has been reversed by Donald Trump. | :50:13. | :50:21. | |
The BBC's Peter Bowes is covering the story from Los Angeles. | :50:22. | :50:24. | |
I asked him if there's anything the protesters can do at this stage. | :50:25. | :50:27. | |
They can go to court and file an injunction hoping to stop the | :50:28. | :50:36. | |
issuing of the permit, as it is known, the easement, that helps the | :50:37. | :50:40. | |
company behind this pipeline. It would potentially stop them from | :50:41. | :50:43. | |
starting the drilling necessary to install this final one mile section | :50:44. | :50:48. | |
of this pipeline. Time is not on the side of the Sioux tribe, the | :50:49. | :50:55. | |
Standing Rock Tribe, and this needs to happen very quickly, because that | :50:56. | :50:58. | |
permit is likely to be issued later on today, which means the drilling | :50:59. | :51:03. | |
could start as early as tomorrow. Presumably those who support the | :51:04. | :51:06. | |
drilling or do they do respect this tribe and they do respect the | :51:07. | :51:12. | |
importance of their water supply? Yes, they do, and they also say | :51:13. | :51:17. | |
there is no mac danger. The company says the pipeline is entirely safe | :51:18. | :51:23. | |
in its view, however local people disagree with that and they say, and | :51:24. | :51:28. | |
they were gratified by the actions of the Obama administration in the | :51:29. | :51:34. | |
middle of December, just a few weeks ago, really, which halted this | :51:35. | :51:38. | |
project pending a further longer term environmental review of the | :51:39. | :51:42. | |
situation. That review would have been followed by consultation with | :51:43. | :51:46. | |
local people. What Donald Trump has done since taking office is | :51:47. | :51:50. | |
expediting the process, essentially telling the army he wanted a quick | :51:51. | :51:55. | |
decision, and that is what has come in the last 24 hours, which means | :51:56. | :51:59. | |
this is very likely to go ahead. Presumably it is a tough time to | :52:00. | :52:04. | |
protest against this one, firstly because of the weather, and secondly | :52:05. | :52:09. | |
because Donald Trump is president, so protests are likely to be focused | :52:10. | :52:13. | |
in Washington rather than North Dakota? Yes, it is a very remote | :52:14. | :52:18. | |
area. As you mentioned, protests around this project have been | :52:19. | :52:22. | |
global. It has really garnered a lot of support set around this country | :52:23. | :52:26. | |
but globally as well. But in terms of physical protest, getting to this | :52:27. | :52:29. | |
area and getting their very quickly is actually quite difficult. That | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
may pose a problem but certainly from the statements issued by the | :52:34. | :52:37. | |
Standing Rock Tribe tripe and others, they are determined to keep | :52:38. | :52:41. | |
this fighting and ticket to the courts if it comes to -- the Sioux | :52:42. | :52:43. | |
tribe. The top story today, MPs in | :52:44. | :52:53. | |
Westminster have supported a bill in the House of Commons to allow the UK | :52:54. | :52:58. | |
to start formal negotiations with the European Union to trigger its | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
exit, triggering Article 50. Nigel Farage, former leader of the UK | :53:03. | :53:10. | |
Independence party, has said... Of course until we get to the end of | :53:11. | :53:13. | |
those negotiations we cannot know the form Brexit will take. What we | :53:14. | :53:19. | |
do know now is that Prime Minister Theresa May is in a position to go | :53:20. | :53:22. | |
to the European Union with the backing of the House of Commons, to | :53:23. | :53:27. | |
trigger article 50 and begin those two years of negotiations, and of | :53:28. | :53:30. | |
course we will be covering that every step of the way here on | :53:31. | :53:33. | |
Outside Source. Just quickly, if you are a football fan, let me bring up | :53:34. | :53:39. | |
some news coming through the BBC newsroom, to update you on that FA | :53:40. | :53:51. | |
Cup game we were speaking about earlier. The game between the | :53:52. | :53:53. | |
Premier League champions Leicester, and Derby. Leicester are in front. | :53:54. | :53:56. | |
That is not a full-time results and keep an eye on the BBC sport app to | :53:57. | :53:59. | |
