This is BBC World News Today with me Chris Rogers. | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
Hillary Clinton's e-mails are back under | :00:11. | :00:14. | |
The FBI says it will investigate after new e-mails surface | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
from a personal server to see if they contain classified information. | :00:20. | :00:27. | |
It is being reported the devices were belonging to an assistant. | :00:28. | :00:38. | |
Uber is told its drivers are entitled to minimum wage rates | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
and holiday pay by a UK tribunal - so what does it mean | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
And taking the plunge to create the world's largest marine sanctuary | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
The director of the FBI says the bureau is probing new e-mails | :00:49. | :01:09. | |
James Comey had previously said his organisation had | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
completed its investigations into Mrs Clinton's use | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
Now he says the FBI has learned of the existence of emails that may | :01:18. | :01:25. | |
Our correspondent is that Hillary Clinton's rally in Ireland tonight. | :01:26. | :01:42. | |
Not much talk from Hillary Clinton tonight. The details are quite | :01:43. | :01:52. | |
vague. She was here a few moments ago at | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
this rally. You can see this stage behind me in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The | :01:58. | :02:06. | |
news about this FBI move on e-mails broke while we were on the plane | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
heading over here. It caught everyone, probably including her | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
campaign and Hillary Clinton herself, off-guard because we did | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
not have been to net access at the time on the plane. This is an | :02:21. | :02:28. | |
interesting situation for the campaign just 11 days before | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
election day. The wording of the FBI director's statement on this is feed | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
as you have mentioned. He is referring to e-mails that are | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
pertinent to the investigation which they had closed into Hillary | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
Clinton's e-mail server. E-mails that were found probably on the | :02:48. | :02:59. | |
e-mail of one of Hillary Clinton's AIDS or her husband. -- aides or | :03:00. | :03:16. | |
that of her husband. We have had a reaction from the Hillary Clinton | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
campaign are seeing his extraordinary to see something like | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
this 11 days out from a presidential election, the FBI should provide | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
more information immediately because the characterisation that is being | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
discussed in the media and by Republicans is not the right one, is | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
not the one that matches FBI director's words. The statement goes | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
on to say the director owes it to the American people immediately to | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
provide full details. It seems clear from the statement from the campaign | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
that Hillary Clinton and those around her feel that this is a | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
reaction by the FBI director to what was seen as a chilling by | :04:03. | :04:11. | |
Republicans pushing the FBI to see more and questioning his conclusion | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
that there was no indictments to be put out, that Hillary Clinton was | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
indeed exonerated of any charges, there would be no charges pressed | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
against her, that she had been careless. We have seen repeatedly | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
over weeks and months Republicans pushing back against that conclusion | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
that the FBI had come to in June. Many thanks for that update. | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
No word from the Hillary Clinton camp so far. C more about what the | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
FBI has had to say. Our correspondent is outside their | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
headquarters in Washington. It could be nothing. It could be | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
everything but it does seem we are not going to know until after | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
Americans go to the polls. One of the things they are trying to | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
do, especially Democrats right now, is urged the FBI to come forward | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
with more information. What we understand so far is the vague | :05:14. | :05:21. | |
letter the FBI director wrote to members of the US Congress talked | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
about e-mails that may be pertinent to the investigation and that there | :05:29. | :05:31. | |
would be an investigation into whether or not deal was significant. | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
Since then in the last hour there have been a few leaks from US | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
officials. What they seem to be saying is that these latest e-mails | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
have come to light during a separate investigation into the husband of | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
the top Clinton aide. Devices belonging to her and her husband | :05:49. | :05:57. | |
were seized as part of an FBI inquiry into whether he sent | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
sexually explicit e-mails to a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina. | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
The FBI chief city could not assess whether or not this material was | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
significant and he could not predict how long it would take to complete | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
the additional work. After the initial furore where people were | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
running around going, what is the scheme, is it related to a Hillary | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
Clinton server, will damage the Hillary Clinton campaign, what we | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
have since found out is that this set of e-mails did not come from | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
Hillary Clinton's server, it appears to come from those of her top aide, | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
and that is what is under investigation. But as you heard from | :06:37. | :06:46. | |
the previous correspondent there Hillary campaign is urging the FBI | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
to give more information to clear up any speculation because right now it | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
is quite opaque, quite vague, and will continue and the run-up to the | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
election. With just 11 days to go all how much | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
damage could do to Hillary Clinton's campaign? | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
The real issue comes down to one of trust. There is two ways of looking | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
at this. If you are going to vote for Hillary Clinton you are still | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
going to vote for Hillary Clinton, if you are going to vote for Donald | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
Trump your stubble to vote for Donald Trump. What it comes down to | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
either number of undecided voters in battle ground States, people who | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
were perhaps swivelling. It may not mean people will vote for Donald | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
Trump, but it Menini do not vote at all until it comes to the Democratic | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
base and getting that these out what you have seen in the last few weeks, | :07:41. | :07:52. | |
using popularity to push, millennial s, young people, the idea is to get | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
there this out. If that base starts to lose enthusiasm for their | :07:59. | :08:00. | |
candidate because of something like this that is where they may get some | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
trouble. Hillary Clinton with light a decisive victory against Donald | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
Trump and although the polls are different and sure she is ahead, | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
that can all change very quickly. Yes, they were in a buoyant mood on | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
the way to Iowa. I would imagine they will be sitting and is poll | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
after poll over the next few days. I mentioned the worst trust. During | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
the initial primary in Iowa I remember one poll suggested that her | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
trust rating was in single digits. She has worked very hard to try to | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
be game that. Something like this could slowly disintegrate that trust | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
in the run-up to the next 11 days. Thank you. | :08:45. | :08:53. | |
Hillary Clinton did not mention anything about this latest news | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
during her rally in Iowa but her rival certainly did. This is what | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
Donald Trump had to say at his rally in New Hampshire. Hillary Clinton's | :09:04. | :09:10. | |
corruption is on a scale we have never seen before. We must not let | :09:11. | :09:19. | |
her take her criminal scheme into the Oval Office. I have great | :09:20. | :09:30. | |
respect for the fact that the FBI and Department of Justice are now | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
willing to have the carriage to right the horrible mistake that they | :09:36. | :09:44. | |
made. Donald Trump speaking in New Hampshire a couple of hours ago. Our | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
correspondent is that Donald Trump as Matt rally. Earlier he said there | :09:50. | :09:52. | |
could hardly have been better news for the Republican candidate. | :09:53. | :10:03. | |
When he came out to speak just before, the delight was palpable. | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
This was a gift to the Donald Trump campaigned that they could not have | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
imagined they would get in the final ten days of the campaign. Frankly | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
they saw this election slipping away from them. It still may well slip | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
away from them but this gives them some kind of lifeline because what | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
the FBI are saying is that there are a batch of new e-mails that are | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
pertinent to their investigation. The previous and that they had | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
opened and closed by pressing any charges. But of course they said at | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
the time that Hillary Clinton and her team had been extremely careless | :10:41. | :10:47. | |
with classified information. The question will be, what are these | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
e-mails, who added to or from, what do they contain, and what is it that | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
is concerning the FBI about them that makes them want to have a look | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
and let Congress nor they are having a look? Crucially, how long will | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
this process take? Frankly the idea of a presidential candidate on | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
polling day, and of course we have got early voting across the country | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
going on also, but on polling day, a presidential candidate under the | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
shadow of the current FBI investigation, that is | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
unprecedented. This is a very serious day for the Hillary Clinton | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
campaign, it is the best David Donald Trump campaign has had in | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
months quite frankly. And we see yet another amazing turn and twist and | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
what is already an extraordinary election campaign. | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
The New York Times seems to know more than anyone about this. We are | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
now joined by the London bureau chief of the New York Times. Thank | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
you for joining us. Can you perhaps enlighten us and we can also that | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
some of the lines of tapping coming from your paper in the last couple | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
of hours and it where these e-mails are perhaps linked to the last | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
inquiry into Hillary Clinton, and what we know so far as to we broke | :12:07. | :12:13. | |
the e-mail story to begin with that shocked the Hillary Clinton | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
campaign. The FBI never exactly close the investigation. They just | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
said they had found no reason for conviction. But Hillary Clinton's | :12:21. | :12:28. | |
closest aide, and who has been married to Anthony Weiner. | :12:29. | :13:06. | |
Maybe these are the same e-mails they have already seen but it is... | :13:07. | :13:19. | |
The FBI has felt they have not been dealt with very openly by the | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
Clinton people. There is a degree of resentment inside the FBI and a | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
feeling that they had to take the investigation whenever it goes. | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
Having been charged by congressional committees to look into the e-mail | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
business they felt it necessary to inform the committee that suddenly | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
they had many more e-mails to look at that might be pertinent. That | :13:45. | :13:51. | |
seems to be pertinent. If they come from Huma Abedin iPhone and her | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
husband, it is possible that classified information was passed | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
between them as husband and wife which could get everyone into | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
trouble or that there is stuff on her devices that were no longer on | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
the Clinton server. We do not know any of this but this is where the | :14:10. | :14:17. | |
investigation seems to be headed according to the information we have | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
been discovering in the last few hours. As I was saying to one of our | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
correspondence earlier it could be everything, it could be absolutely | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
nothing. Should be read into the fact that this has been announced by | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
the FBI with just 11 days to go, the Republican Speaker of the House | :14:36. | :14:43. | |
saying they would not do this unless it was important. The FBI felt it | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
was important for their own integrity to tell Congress that they | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
had discovered these e-mails and that these e-mails could be | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
pertinent. They have been careful legally not to say too much. The | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
problem is because it is also particle and the political | :15:02. | :15:03. | |
importance of this may far I'd the legal importance, I think whatever | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
happens in the election there will be a good look at what the FBI did | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
and when if the it and why it did that afterwards, because the FBI | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
will see it is only being its own devotion to the law and its | :15:23. | :15:29. | |
integrity towards Congress, but of course many Democrats will say that | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
the FBI's anger at Mrs Clinton has led to it retaliating. This has not | :15:37. | :15:46. | |
apparently come from Wikileaks or from Russian hacks, it seems to have | :15:47. | :15:55. | |
come from Clinton's closest aide. That was from the head of the London | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
bureau for the New York Times. Still to come, the worldlargest marine | :16:02. | :16:09. | |
sanctuary will be treated in Antarctica. More in a moment. | :16:10. | :16:22. | |
Only yesterday she had spoken of dying in the service of her country | :16:23. | :16:33. | |
and said she would be proud to. These two countries have concluded a | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
chapter of history. No more suspicion. No more fear. No more | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
uncertainty of what each they might bring. This is beautiful. | :16:43. | :17:06. | |
A milestone in human history. Born today this girl in India is the | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
7,000,000,000th person on the planet. Here are the latest | :17:13. | :17:23. | |
headlines. The FBI says it will investigate after new e-mails | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
surface from a personal server to see if they contain classified | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
information. It has been reported the e-mails were discovered on | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
devices belonging to Hillary Clinton's aide Huma Abedin and | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
husband Anthony Weiner. In what could turn out to be a major | :17:40. | :17:46. | |
blow to the taxi app Uber, a tribunal here in the UK has ruled | :17:47. | :17:50. | |
in favour of Uber drivers, saying they should be | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
treated as normal workers - and given holiday pay | :17:54. | :17:55. | |
and the minimum wage. Uber had argued that it's just | :17:56. | :17:57. | |
a technology company, not a taxi provider, | :17:58. | :17:59. | |
and that their drivers work for themselves as | :18:00. | :18:01. | |
self-employed people. Uber operates in more than 70 | :18:02. | :18:02. | |
countries worldwide. Uber drivers, like Asif, get their | :18:03. | :18:04. | |
jobs via the smartphone app. They are pioneers | :18:05. | :18:11. | |
of the digital age. While Uber is his main source | :18:12. | :18:15. | |
of income, he is classed Which is why he says Uber has been | :18:16. | :18:18. | |
denying him normal workers' rights. I have no control of | :18:19. | :18:24. | |
the work, I have an app. How could I be classified | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
as self-employed, because I don't Uber has 40,000 drivers in Britain, | :18:29. | :18:41. | |
but they are not employees with full employee rights, | :18:42. | :18:49. | |
they are self-employed, as Uber calls them, who have | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
to fend for themselves. But the drivers who brought this | :18:53. | :18:59. | |
case, say they should be workers. Which is legally | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
somewhere in the middle. Entitled to rest breaks, holiday | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
pay, and the national minimum wage. Today a tribunal decided the drivers | :19:07. | :19:23. | |
and the union behind them were right. | :19:24. | :19:24. | |
This is the most important employment law decision | :19:25. | :19:26. | |
Its implications reach far, far beyond Uber and reach right out | :19:27. | :19:30. | |
They clarify the position and level the playing field up. | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
Uber is no stranger to protest, traditional taxi drivers around | :19:35. | :19:40. | |
the world accuse it of driving down fares and standards. | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
It said it would appeal and that the overwhelming majority | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
of drivers who use the Uber app want to keep the freedom | :19:49. | :19:51. | |
and flexibility of being able to drive when and where they want. | :19:52. | :19:54. | |
Yet today's decision will reverberate around | :19:55. | :20:01. | |
a new generation of delivery companies, minicabs and courier | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
firms, which use smartphones to mobilise an army | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
They are going to need to look very carefully at the case | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
to decide whether they can distinguish their business operating | :20:14. | :20:15. | |
model from Uber's or whether it is sufficiently | :20:16. | :20:17. | |
similar that they are now at substantial risk of having | :20:18. | :20:20. | |
to pay the minimum wage, provide paid holiday, | :20:21. | :20:21. | |
So, pending the appeal, Asif should get his workers' rights | :20:22. | :20:29. | |
and the rules could change anyway, because the Government has | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
commissioned an independent review into whether employment law now | :20:33. | :20:34. | |
The United Nations says there is credible evidence that Islamic State | :20:35. | :21:07. | |
is abducting Iraqis to use as human shields. | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
Syrian rebel forces have began the offensive. The Russian President has | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
turned down in a quest to use it attracts. A bus driver has been | :21:23. | :21:30. | |
burnt alive in Brisbane in Australia. A final object was thrown | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
at them. Several of his passengers suffered injuries. A 40-year-old man | :21:37. | :21:40. | |
has been arrested. Terrorism has been ruled out. The leaders of an | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
armed militia that took over a wildlife refuge in Oregon have been | :21:46. | :21:52. | |
acquitted of firearms offences. They occupied the bird sanctuary for | :21:53. | :21:55. | |
several weeks accusing the US Government of unlawful interference | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
into the fears of ranchers. One of the protesters was shot dead when | :22:01. | :22:02. | |
the FBI arrested leaders. The world's largest marine sanctuary | :22:03. | :22:18. | |
is being created. It will be administered by New Zealand and the | :22:19. | :22:21. | |
United States. The waters around Antarctica may be | :22:22. | :22:23. | |
icy, but they are teeming with life. This is one of the world's least | :22:24. | :22:30. | |
disturbed stretches of ocean. Because it is so rich | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
biologically, it is attracting The protection agreed today is seen | :22:35. | :22:36. | |
is hugely important. In the 25 years that I've been | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
working in polar marine biology, It is a massive decision | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
and British Antarctic Survey are delighted that all the hard work | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
for more than five years by 24 countries have resulted in this | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
incredible decision. Tiny creatures known as krill | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
are the foundation of life The aim of the new marine protected | :23:04. | :23:05. | |
area is to safeguard There's still so much | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
in this bizarre world that remains a mystery, | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
even after a century of exploration. For scientists it is a huge | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
challenge trying to understand what makes this remote | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
and unique ecosystem tick. I once saw that for myself | :23:22. | :23:27. | |
as I joined a team of biologists, So will the new deal | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
protect all this? It will last 35 years, | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
some say that is not enough. But for the campaigner, | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
Lewis Pugh, who even swam in the Antarctic waters | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
to highlight the issue, For me this is an issue | :23:44. | :23:45. | |
about justice. Yes, it is about the environment, | :23:46. | :23:49. | |
but most of all it is about justice. It is about ensuring that we look | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
after our environment That there's justice | :23:56. | :23:58. | |
between generations. What's remarkable about | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
the agreement for this remotest corner of the planet | :24:07. | :24:08. | |
is that there has been some very rare harmony | :24:09. | :24:10. | |
between Russia and the West. Far from the disputes | :24:11. | :24:13. | |
over Syria or Ukraine, governments have looked | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
at Antarctica and decided that it is just too | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
precious to put at risk. Scientists have confirmed that what | :24:20. | :24:37. | |
looked like a brown pebble found ten years ago is the first example of a | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
petrified dinosaur brain. He litters. It is remarkably well | :24:43. | :24:46. | |
preserved. The dinosaur's head became buried in a acidic body of | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
water such as a swamp when it died. It came from a large plant eating | :24:55. | :24:59. | |
animal and it dates from more than 130 million years ago. If you can | :25:00. | :25:06. | |
guess what the name of the dinosaur is, and is on a postcard. The big | :25:07. | :25:12. | |

United States the FBI has announced it is reopening an investigation | :25:17. | :25:20. | |
into Hillary Clinton's e-mails. The bugle has said that it has | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
discovered new e-mails but so far there is nothing that shows any | :25:26. | :25:33. | |
classified information. The FBI had previously cleared Hillary Clinton | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
of criminal wrongdoing. Donald Trump praised the FBI for reopening the | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
inquiry telling supporters the American people must not let Hillary | :25:45. | :25:47. | |
Clinton take what he called her criminal scheme to the White House. | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
It has been reported the e-mails were discovered in devices belonging | :25:53. | :26:04. | |
