:03:51. > :03:55.is what we expect from Tirana when it comes to this relationship. What
:03:56. > :03:59.do you think the White House means when the president says that nothing
:04:00. > :04:05.is off the table and now Iran is on notice? I think it implies that
:04:06. > :04:09.military action is a real possibility. It is not off the
:04:10. > :04:13.table, therefore it is on the table, therefore it could be one of the
:04:14. > :04:20.means of trying to prevent Iran from testing missiles in the future. Now,
:04:21. > :04:23.Iran will save the missile testing complies with international law,
:04:24. > :04:26.they have not violated that. I am not expert enough to make a
:04:27. > :04:30.judgment, but once he issued a warning you have to take care.
:04:31. > :04:35.Someone will call you on it. If they do then you have to take action. Do
:04:36. > :04:41.you think this White House is seriously considering issuing that
:04:42. > :04:44.red line that they criticised President Obama fought over Syria
:04:45. > :04:49.and following through and taking some kind of military action against
:04:50. > :04:56.Iran? They could. To paraphrase Henry Kissinger, he said if an idle
:04:57. > :04:59.threat is taken seriously, that can be helpful. If a serious threat is
:05:00. > :05:04.not taken seriously, that can be catastrophic. The question is, if
:05:05. > :05:11.you issue a threat and don't intend to follow up with what is implied,
:05:12. > :05:15.then you run the risk, as we saw with President Obama, Trump having a
:05:16. > :05:21.red line and then being called on it. If he takes military action,
:05:22. > :05:25.have the calculated how that goes up the escalator? How do you manage the
:05:26. > :05:30.escalation of the conflict in an area that is article to the world
:05:31. > :05:35.economy? Hopefully they have a plan for that. They have looked at the
:05:36. > :05:38.options. In coming out with the White House press secretary and then
:05:39. > :05:44.the president this morning, unilaterally against Iran like this,
:05:45. > :05:48.the White House has missed an opportunity to act multilaterally,
:05:49. > :05:54.to bring American allies on board, which has been the work we have
:05:55. > :05:58.negotiated with Iran in the past? The president has taken the attitude
:05:59. > :06:02.that the United States is big enough work can be big enough to take on
:06:03. > :06:15.the world without any friends. To insult the Australian Prime
:06:16. > :06:18.Minister, to level criticisms against Chancellor Merkel and to
:06:19. > :06:22.compare her and put on an equal status with President Putin, he
:06:23. > :06:27.seems to be attacking his friends, attacking everyone except President
:06:28. > :06:30.Putin. He will find out very quickly, if you wants to take
:06:31. > :06:35.military action he will say who is with us? Make sure you have friends
:06:36. > :06:45.with you before you take any action. Good luck to them after. Dealing
:06:46. > :06:48.with Iran is a nuanced thing. There are moderate forces and there are
:06:49. > :06:53.the hardliners, the Republican guard. We have presidential
:06:54. > :06:57.elections coming up in May. Are you worried this confrontational stance
:06:58. > :07:02.that America is taken to push the hardliners to the forefront? I think
:07:03. > :07:08.the hardliners have always been to the forefront. The IR GC are the
:07:09. > :07:13.ones who control the government. They are the ones who have the
:07:14. > :07:19.investments in the private sector. It is the Iranians guard who have
:07:20. > :07:26.the position in front. The moderates are in the background. To stay with
:07:27. > :07:28.this. We want to talk about another story in a second. We will get back
:07:29. > :07:29.to you on that. We mentioned the spat between
:07:30. > :07:32.the Australian Prime Minister, "A call cut short" is how
:07:33. > :07:35.it is reported, though the White House have just described
:07:36. > :07:37.it as "cordial." It seems the conversation may have
:07:38. > :07:40.turned sour over a deal President Obama made to take in 1600
:07:41. > :07:45.refugees from Australia. Yes most of the Australian papers
:07:46. > :07:49.have it on their front page, the Aussie tabloids never shy
:07:50. > :07:53.when it comes to "Allies in a war of words,
:07:54. > :08:00.megaphone diplomacy" The Sydney Morning Herald, "Dumb
:08:01. > :08:08.deal" quoting Mr Trump's tweet. And this Christian,
:08:09. > :08:10.is the Daily Telegraph, which is to the point:
:08:11. > :08:15."Donald Thump". So, we've got a flavour
:08:16. > :08:17.as to the how the Australians might be feeling Christian but here's
:08:18. > :08:20.a little more of what the President's press
:08:21. > :08:31.secretary had to say, I have a lot of respect for
:08:32. > :08:36.Australia, I love it as a country, but we had a problem where, for
:08:37. > :08:42.whatever reason, President Obama said they would take probably well
:08:43. > :08:46.over 1000 illegal immigrants who were in prisons and they were going
:08:47. > :08:53.to take them into this country and I just said why question what I just
:08:54. > :09:01.wanted to ask that question. 1000, it could be 2000, could be more. I
:09:02. > :09:07.said why? What is the purpose? We will see what happens. The previous
:09:08. > :09:11.administration does something, you have to respect that, but you can
:09:12. > :09:13.also say why are we doing this? That is when you're in the jam we are in.
:09:14. > :09:15.With me now is Representative Marsha Blackburn, a Republican
:09:16. > :09:18.from Tennessee and a big supporter of Mr Trump from the
:09:19. > :09:32.Thank you for joining us. I want to pick up on the Australia question.
:09:33. > :09:38.Whatever you think of this refugee dude that President Obama made with
:09:39. > :09:42.the Australians, is it useful, wise, helpful for President Trump to be
:09:43. > :09:48.taking on somebody who has been such a key ally of the United States?
:09:49. > :09:52.There is no doubt that Australia has been a key ally of the United
:09:53. > :09:57.States. I think it is also fair to say that this was not an agreement
:09:58. > :10:02.that was popular with the American people. You can look at the election
:10:03. > :10:11.results and see that. People want to make certain that the refugee issues
:10:12. > :10:18.are addressed, absolutely. Systems, ways we can be of help, but having
:10:19. > :10:24.refugees that are coming in without proper vetting or agreements to take
:10:25. > :10:30.refugees in large numbers without this, the president is ready to go
:10:31. > :10:33.back and say with a minute, with this administration, going forward
:10:34. > :10:37.we want to look at this, we wanted to revisit it. This is not a step
:10:38. > :10:42.the American people are wanting to take. I get at that point about this
:10:43. > :10:49.deal, he didn't make it, he doesn't like it. The broader point is how is
:10:50. > :10:53.America going to treat its allies? We heard Secretary Cohen talking
:10:54. > :10:58.about the criticism of Angela Merkel. How many more allies is
:10:59. > :11:04.president Trump going to offend because, at some point, he will need
:11:05. > :11:08.those allies. Of course, we need our allies. One of the things we have
:11:09. > :11:13.heard from our allies is they want to see some consistency out of the
:11:14. > :11:16.United States. What has happened through the Obama years, especially
:11:17. > :11:21.the last four years, our allies are saying where are you? We don't know
:11:22. > :11:27.where you are on an issue because you have a tendency to be on all
:11:28. > :11:33.sides of an issue. Then our enemies are saying the US is not exerting
:11:34. > :11:37.leadership, so, therefore, we can go in and fill that void. Some
:11:38. > :11:42.certainty, of course. That is appropriate. I will tell you also, I
:11:43. > :11:49.think some of our allies are pleased that we are taking steps to address
:11:50. > :11:52.the issue around lack of vetting with these refugees, because they
:11:53. > :11:58.would like to be able to do the same thing also and, of course, you all
:11:59. > :12:09.in the UK are fully aware of this with members of the EU. I think that
:12:10. > :12:13.people want to see a precise nature of vetting, so we know the
:12:14. > :12:19.individuals are, we know where they are coming from and we know their
:12:20. > :12:23.intentions. I have to say, what I am hearing from American allies is that
:12:24. > :12:27.they are confused and they are not clear about what is coming out of
:12:28. > :12:36.Washington. I think that is fair. Let me get to a poll that came from
:12:37. > :12:40.Reuters which suggests that an -- a majority of Americans, 49%, support
:12:41. > :12:45.the immigration policy of the President, 41% do not support that
:12:46. > :12:50.immigration policy. Dig down a little bit deeper and 56% of
:12:51. > :12:56.Americans say that it is not right that America favour Christian
:12:57. > :12:58.refugees over Muslim refugees. Is this getting that some inherent
:12:59. > :13:07.sense of American religious fairness? No. I think people are
:13:08. > :13:16.right to say anyone who is in danger and can be vetted thoroughly as a
:13:17. > :13:21.refugee and tendency to that place of refuge, yes, and we understand
:13:22. > :13:26.that we are a nation of laws, we are a nation of immigrants. We know
:13:27. > :13:33.that. We appreciate that. What people want to see is that there is
:13:34. > :13:37.fairness in the system. They want to make certain that people represent
:13:38. > :13:42.themselves appropriately, they want to make certain that the US does all
:13:43. > :13:48.it can do to help create safe zones in the region, to get people out of
:13:49. > :13:53.harm's way. Because of that, I think that most people do give her what
:13:54. > :13:58.the president is doing. There are a lot of people who are still
:13:59. > :14:02.uncertain as to all of the changes, but I think as President Trump moves
:14:03. > :14:09.forward, there will be more people who say yes, I agree with where he
:14:10. > :14:13.is calling on this. I want to come back to the consistency thing,
:14:14. > :14:18.because we get this tweet from the president today, the reports but he
:14:19. > :14:21.cut short this call with the Australian Prime Minister to stop
:14:22. > :14:25.the front pages in Australia, we have shown people. Then we get this
:14:26. > :14:30.more loving feeling from President Trump if you are slicker. On top of
:14:31. > :14:35.that, from the American side, we hear Senator McCain is running the
:14:36. > :14:38.Australian ambassador. This is what he is saying, I asked the Australian
:14:39. > :14:42.ambassador to Washington to convey to the people of Australia that
:14:43. > :14:53.there are American brothers and sisters value are historic alliance.
:14:54. > :14:56.Is it right and proper that a Republican senator asked to ring the
:14:57. > :15:01.Australian ambassador and almost apologise on behalf of the
:15:02. > :15:06.president? I think as we move forward you will see more
:15:07. > :15:12.consistency. During the Obama years there were some of us who stepped
:15:13. > :15:21.forward to apologise to allies, certainly to Israel, four steps that
:15:22. > :15:24.were taken. There has been that inconsistency for the last eight
:15:25. > :15:29.years, there has been the questioning as to where America
:15:30. > :15:34.stood. We have our Secretary of State who was sworn in last night.
:15:35. > :15:42.He is on the job as of this morning, we have a Secretary of Defense who
:15:43. > :15:46.has headed into South East Asia. The administration is getting themselves
:15:47. > :15:49.together. If the Senate want to see more consistency, they need to be
:15:50. > :15:53.consistent in shoring up to vote in approving the President's cabinet.
:15:54. > :15:59.That would be a great step for helping to make certain that you
:16:00. > :16:02.have the Cabinet in place and that they are fully functioning. Thank
:16:03. > :16:06.you for joining us. Some interesting lines
:16:07. > :16:08.coming out of the Pentagon They are confirming there was a US
:16:09. > :16:13.special forces raid in Yemen over the weekend and that an American
:16:14. > :16:17.soldier was killed on the ground, as well as a number
:16:18. > :16:21.of women and children. The reports in the US press this
:16:22. > :16:24.morning suggest the mission, the first operation to be authorised
:16:25. > :16:26.by President Trump, With me now is Nawal Al-Maghafi
:16:27. > :16:32.from BBC Arabic, she's reported from Yemen several times,
:16:33. > :16:48.documenting the conflict Difficult to pull everything
:16:49. > :16:51.together, because there are different reports from what the
:16:52. > :16:57.Pentagon is saying from what we are hearing from the ground. What is
:16:58. > :17:00.your best guess about what happened? They don't think we can say they
:17:01. > :17:06.didn't go to plan because I don't think there was much planning.
:17:07. > :17:10.According to people on the ground, US Army members landed on the ground
:17:11. > :17:15.to ambush the building which had tribal members who had been
:17:16. > :17:18.contacting Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula. The plan was to take
:17:19. > :17:22.their computers and the technology they had to use it for intelligence.
:17:23. > :17:27.When they landed, tribal members were retaliating and shooting back
:17:28. > :17:34.at the US Army. A couple of men were badly injured, one of who later
:17:35. > :17:38.died. They retaliated, shooting back killing a number of civilians. The
:17:39. > :17:43.people on the ground dispute strongly the information that came
:17:44. > :17:48.out today that the tribal members were using women and children as
:17:49. > :17:51.shields. They say that when a couple of the US Army members were shot,
:17:52. > :17:57.they were shooting back frantically, killing everyone in the building. We
:17:58. > :18:00.are talking about Al-Qaeda, because we are usually talking about
:18:01. > :18:07.so-called Islamic State, but Al-Qaeda still exists there. They
:18:08. > :18:11.save, even though it might have gone wrong, they have recorded some
:18:12. > :18:15.information, some files or some intelligence that might help prevent
:18:16. > :18:21.future terrorist attacks. That is what they say, but we have not seen
:18:22. > :18:26.anything yet. They also killed a US citizen. Reports from the ground
:18:27. > :18:30.suggest another six women were killed and another 30 civilians were
:18:31. > :18:40.killed in the raid. It seems that it would drastically wrong. Also, one
:18:41. > :18:43.of the helicopters was not prepared, they had no back-up. It went wrong
:18:44. > :18:47.for the civilians on the ground, but also for the US Army members who
:18:48. > :18:53.landed without a clear plan of what they had to do. Does this incident
:18:54. > :18:59.heel into the bigger things going on in Yemen with the conflict, or will
:19:00. > :19:03.they use this for propaganda? Al-Qaeda are definitely using this
:19:04. > :19:08.for propaganda purposes. The drone war has been going on since the
:19:09. > :19:12.Obama days. At least that was more targeted and better planned. Attacks
:19:13. > :19:17.like this, where there is a huge civilian loss are great games for
:19:18. > :19:21.Al-Qaeda. They swoop in and these are the people they recruit, people
:19:22. > :19:27.who become sympathetic because of his family members. Also, people in
:19:28. > :19:30.Yemen are extremely worried because this attack shows how he's the
:19:31. > :19:36.President Trump's decisions can be. In light of his statement on Iran,
:19:37. > :19:40.it has made people really worried in Yemen about what his decisions will
:19:41. > :19:47.be in light of the war going on there. Interesting to get the
:19:48. > :19:57.perspective from the Yemeni side. Let's bring the former secretary of
:19:58. > :20:00.defence back in. Bill Cohen, missions go wrong, of course they
:20:01. > :20:04.do, what do you make of what happened in this incident in Yemen?
:20:05. > :20:10.I wouldn't make the judgment that it was President Trump, his lack of
:20:11. > :20:13.experience or preparation of planning, if anything, I suspect
:20:14. > :20:18.this kind of operation was in planning for some time now. You can
:20:19. > :20:24.have faulty intelligence, things go wrong, planes helicopters crash and
:20:25. > :20:28.you end up killing innocent people. I would assume this has been planned
:20:29. > :20:38.for some time, at least weeks or longer. The question I have is what
:20:39. > :20:42.is the Secretary of Defense doing to try to solidify our relationship
:20:43. > :20:46.with the South Koreans, were President Trump has really caused
:20:47. > :20:51.some questions, some concern about what our relationship is going to
:20:52. > :20:55.be. The president, and I followed him on this, he is making it seem as
:20:56. > :21:00.if the US military is a mercenary force. If you pay for us we will
:21:01. > :21:04.send them and if you don't, they stay at home. That is not the way
:21:05. > :21:07.America functions. We need our allies, we need to extend the
:21:08. > :21:11.perimeter of defence around the world. We need the Australians, the
:21:12. > :21:19.Japanese, the South Koreans, the Germans. It is important that we
:21:20. > :21:23.build alliances and not have the notion, Australia needs is more than
:21:24. > :21:26.we need Australia. Australia has been with us in every war since
:21:27. > :21:33.World War I. We need them and we don't start picking out whether they
:21:34. > :21:38.have done enough. The images that America has been taken advantage of
:21:39. > :21:41.by every country, that is simply not true. We have two the other
:21:42. > :21:45.countries can pay more, I have insisted on that in the past and we
:21:46. > :21:50.should do that, but do not undermine the nature of the relationship. Do
:21:51. > :21:56.not call it a obsolete, do not equate Angela Merkel with Vladimir
:21:57. > :21:58.Putin. Do not do these things to jeopardise those relationships.
:21:59. > :22:00.Thank you very much Bill Cohen. President Trump has been complaining
:22:01. > :22:02.all week about the Democrats holding up the approval of his cabinet
:22:03. > :22:06.but last night the senate did vote through the appointment of
:22:07. > :22:08.Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State. Tillerson got straight down to work
:22:09. > :22:11.today and his first job was easing concerns of his new staff,
:22:12. > :22:27.many of whom have criticised I know this was a hotly contested
:22:28. > :22:32.election and we do not all feel the same way about the outcome. Each of
:22:33. > :22:36.us is entitled to the expression of our political beliefs, but we cannot
:22:37. > :22:41.let our personal convictions overwhelm our ability to work as one
:22:42. > :22:47.team. Change for the sake of change can be counter-productive and that
:22:48. > :22:50.will never be my approach. But we cannot sustain ineffective
:22:51. > :22:54.traditions over optimal outcomes. I will gather information on what
:22:55. > :22:57.processes should be reformed and do my part to nature we are functioning
:22:58. > :22:58.in the most productive and efficient way possible.
:22:59. > :23:01.So, Christian, let's have a look at where we are on the rest
:23:02. > :23:04.There are 15 executive departments, the heads
:23:05. > :23:09.Here they all are, with Donald Trump's pick for each one.
:23:10. > :23:12.So far, only four of these have been confirmed by the Senate
:23:13. > :23:18.The Secretary of State, Secretary for Defence,
:23:19. > :23:20.Secretary for Homeland Security and the Secretary of State
:23:21. > :23:29.To put that into context, in 2009, President Obama had 10 cabinet posts
:23:30. > :23:45.confirmed in the first week So why the delay Katty?
:23:46. > :23:54.Is it the transition team who have not done their work properly, or are
:23:55. > :23:58.the Democrats digging in their pieces? It depends on who you speak
:23:59. > :24:01.to. The Republicans say Democrats are obstructionist and the Democrats
:24:02. > :24:04.are saying these people were not feted and there are physical and
:24:05. > :24:11.ethical concerns about them and that is why they have not been confirmed
:24:12. > :24:12.yet. He is facing a big problem with his Education Secretary, two
:24:13. > :24:21.Republican secretaries said they will not vote to confirm her.
:24:22. > :24:30.One of the subject earlier and was this, take.
:24:31. > :24:32.When I ran for President, I had to leave the show.
:24:33. > :24:35.That's when I knew for sure I was doing it,
:24:36. > :24:37.and they hired a big, big movie star, Arnold
:24:38. > :24:42.Schwarzenegger, to take my place, and we know how that turned out.
:24:43. > :24:44.The ratings went right down the tubes.
:24:45. > :24:58.Mark will never ever bet against Trump again and I want to just pray
:24:59. > :25:03.for Arnold, if we can, for those ratings.
:25:04. > :25:04.And that Christian prompted this response
:25:05. > :25:07.Donald, I've a great idea, why don't we switch jobs,
:25:08. > :25:10.you take over TV, because you're such an expert in ratings,
:25:11. > :25:13.and I take over your job, and then people can finally
:25:14. > :25:26.You can pick a fight with China and Iran, but the terminator? I don't
:25:27. > :25:27.know. You're watching One Hundred
:25:28. > :26:10.Days from BBC News. Good evening, it has been a
:26:11. > :26:14.turbulent day to day. Really, but particularly with the wind, it is
:26:15. > :26:19.circulating around this massive cloud. A big area of low pressure.
:26:20. > :26:24.This area is still giving us cause for concern, but it has been windy
:26:25. > :26:28.today. Just ahead of this weather system of pushing it went northward
:26:29. > :26:37.and we will see severe gales and sees such as we have seen today. In
:26:38. > :26:43.contrast, although it is a windy day across the board, the seat looks, in
:26:44. > :26:49.Norfolk. There will be a squeeze in those winds across Cardiff Bay and
:26:50. > :26:53.into the east of Northern Ireland and western Scotland. The wind and
:26:54. > :26:56.further bands of showers will, especially in the West, maintain
:26:57. > :27:01.temperatures were above freezing, but in rural areas it could turn
:27:02. > :27:05.cold. It is late frost free at this stage. Write to start away from the
:27:06. > :27:10.north of Scotland. Not a bad start. The next area of rain, the low
:27:11. > :27:14.pressure we have been watching with potential gales and severe gales is
:27:15. > :27:18.soon upon us in the South West and Wales. It includes will spread
:27:19. > :27:26.eastward. The northern half of the country could stay fair for most of
:27:27. > :27:28.the afternoon. It is not as mild tomorrow. Temperatures are two or
:27:29. > :27:31.three degrees down on today and that is important because if the rain
:27:32. > :27:34.continues for any length of time it could turn to snow across the Welsh
:27:35. > :27:40.mountains and further north. The wind likely to cost 250 miles an
:27:41. > :27:44.hour again in land, 70 miles an hour along the coast and a battering for
:27:45. > :27:47.the channel islands. There are warnings on the website. If you
:27:48. > :27:55.cross into fronts there are ample warnings for the storm. Another low
:27:56. > :28:00.pressure across northern fronts on Saturday, brushes into the southern
:28:01. > :28:03.half of the UK. The other low pressure is sad across Scotland for
:28:04. > :28:09.a more unsettled and windy day. In between it is not as mild as recent
:28:10. > :28:13.days, but it is not a bad day. Dry and bright weather. The pressure of
:28:14. > :28:18.meanders through the North Sea to affect East of Scotland for Sunday.
:28:19. > :28:22.Wet and windy here. Further weather system is close to the south could
:28:23. > :28:24.bring rain but for many parts there will be dry, bright and chilly
:28:25. > :30:12.weather. Welcome back to 100 Days with me
:30:13. > :30:15.Katty Kay in Washington - A reminder of tonight's top story -
:30:16. > :30:23.Iran put "on notice" and Australia blasted for a "dumb" refugee deal -
:30:24. > :30:25.welcome to diplomacy, Iran is warned after firing
:30:26. > :30:28.a ballistic missile, but Tehran hit back -
:30:29. > :30:31.promising to continue its missile activity and accusing
:30:32. > :30:33.Mr Trump of "ranting." And coming up - as Britain begins
:30:34. > :30:36.the formal Brexit process what move will the Scots make as many remain
:30:37. > :30:38.committed to breaking Here in the UK the government has
:30:39. > :30:55.just published its official policy document setting out
:30:56. > :31:00.plans for Brexit. Yes, the Brexit bill Christian
:31:01. > :31:02.showed you yesterday This is the strategy
:31:03. > :31:06.document to go with it. It puts a bit more
:31:07. > :31:18.flesh on the bones. I have been looking through it. I
:31:19. > :31:21.would pull out the three things. The Prime Minister is keen to sort out
:31:22. > :31:27.the future of those Europeans already here in the UK. And also
:31:28. > :31:33.those Brits living in Europe. She wants to do that before negotiation
:31:34. > :31:41.begins and ends. wants to do that before negotiation
:31:42. > :31:47.begins and She wants a tapered transition period for business.
:31:48. > :31:53.Thirdly, she is offering the lower House of Commons vote when the
:31:54. > :31:59.negotiation has finished. If they vote against the negotiation, then
:32:00. > :32:03.what? Do they revert to the World Trade Organisation deal? If that's
:32:04. > :32:12.not to the satisfaction of Labour. They want to vote on the document so
:32:13. > :32:18.they can send it back to start again. They're trying to pull over
:32:19. > :32:30.some Conservative rebels from her site.
:32:31. > :32:35.You might think with Britain so close to the exit
:32:36. > :32:41.there would be a renewed appetite for independence in Scotland.
:32:42. > :32:43.Remember that 62% of the people in Scotland voted
:32:44. > :32:45.to remain in the European Union in last year's referendum.
:32:46. > :32:48.But when it comes to independence from England, public opinion
:32:49. > :32:51.So what will Scotland's First Minister and the leader
:32:52. > :32:53.of the Scottish Nationalists, Nicola Sturgeon, do next?
:32:54. > :32:57.Our Scotland Editor Sarah Smith has been taking a look.
:32:58. > :33:08.Scotland voted to remain, but will have to leave the EU along with the
:33:09. > :33:13.rest of the UK. There could be a second independence referendum.
:33:14. > :33:18.Nicola Sturgeon said immediately she might call another vote. I think
:33:19. > :33:23.another referendum is highly likely. Her next move is to start
:33:24. > :33:27.preparations. I can confirm today that the independent Referendum Bill
:33:28. > :33:32.will be published for consultation next week. Always insisting that
:33:33. > :33:38.Scotland should not be forced to accept a hard Brexit they did not
:33:39. > :33:44.vote for. Do we want to take control of the future of our own country in
:33:45. > :33:52.our own hands? That is the choice for the people of Scotland. During
:33:53. > :33:56.the 2014 independence referendum, yes voters were warned that an
:33:57. > :34:00.independent Scotland would not be allowed to join the EU, but now it
:34:01. > :34:04.Scotland will have to leave precisely because it is still part
:34:05. > :34:08.of the United Kingdom. The Scottish Government has said that Scotland is
:34:09. > :34:13.being dragged out of the EU against its will and they complain that the
:34:14. > :34:27.Scottish Government's views are being ignored. So it is somewhat
:34:28. > :34:35.surprising that independence polls are not shifting. Some no supporters
:34:36. > :34:39.have changed to yes. Conversely, some yes supporters are now inclined
:34:40. > :34:46.to vote no because they are not very keen on the EU and the actually
:34:47. > :34:51.voted to leave. So there is a churn underneath the apparent instability.
:34:52. > :34:57.But that leaves the debate much where it was before June 23. Nicola
:34:58. > :35:03.Sturgeon will have to do play her next move very carefully. She argues
:35:04. > :35:07.leaving the EU will be an economic catastrophe. She has devised a plan
:35:08. > :35:12.she thinks could keep Scotland in the European single market, even if
:35:13. > :35:16.the rest of the UK leads. I do not accept there is a mandate to take
:35:17. > :35:20.any part of the UK out of the single market. Scotland could stay in the
:35:21. > :35:24.single market even if the rest of the UK chooses to leave. When Nicola
:35:25. > :35:29.Sturgeon presented her proposals here at her official residence in
:35:30. > :35:34.Edinburgh, she knew it was unlikely the Prime Minister would agree to
:35:35. > :35:38.them. But if her plan is dismissed, then she can argue that Scotland's
:35:39. > :35:43.wishes are being ignored by the London government and use that as a
:35:44. > :35:48.reason to ask voters to reconsider Scottish independence. Theresa May
:35:49. > :35:52.needs to play it cautiously if she wants to keep Scotland on site. But
:35:53. > :35:57.she insists there will not be different deals for different parts
:35:58. > :36:01.of the UK. There are parts of the country that voted to remain and
:36:02. > :36:05.others voted to leave. What we now do is unite behind the result of the
:36:06. > :36:10.vote that took place. We come together as a country, we go out
:36:11. > :36:15.there, we make a success of this. Nicola Sturgeon insists she's not
:36:16. > :36:19.bluffing about a second independence referendum.. Theresa May knows she
:36:20. > :36:24.is unlikely to go for it until opinion polls improve. If the SNP
:36:25. > :36:36.call for another vote, that will be one they cannot afford to lose.
:36:37. > :36:37.Did you know Katty that the BBC currently
:36:38. > :36:47.Which means we send Donald Trump's message far and wide.
:36:48. > :36:49.Yes, and that can't be easy, interpreting accurately
:36:50. > :36:53.But one man who can tell us what is like is BBC
:36:54. > :36:57.He's been explaining the challenge of becoming The Donald.
:36:58. > :37:07.I don't care if they're free, I don't care if they're fair,
:37:08. > :37:10.I don't care if there are good, I don't care if they are horrendous,
:37:11. > :37:14.You thought Trump was hard enough to understand in English,
:37:15. > :37:19.imagine putting his words in another language.
:37:20. > :37:22.I find the best way to translate President Donald Trump is to become
:37:23. > :37:25.Trump and speak his words the way he says them.
:37:26. > :37:28.I am a journalist with the BBC's Persian TV service.
:37:29. > :37:35.And part of my job is doing live translations of world leaders,
:37:36. > :37:37.like the new US president, from English to Farsi.
:37:38. > :37:55.Translating the unscripted word is what I find difficult.
:37:56. > :37:58.I've brought in Richard Newman, the speech and body language expert,
:37:59. > :38:01.to explain how Donald Trump often veers from subject to subject.
:38:02. > :38:02.He's always aiming for the final punchy phrase.
:38:03. > :38:05.He will start a sentence to reply or respond to something
:38:06. > :38:07.and if he thinks I'm not going to get there,
:38:08. > :38:10.he will abandon it and just shift off somewhere else.
:38:11. > :38:13.And then think, is this going to work, now I'll abandon this
:38:14. > :38:15.and shift off somewhere else, until he finds his final driving
:38:16. > :38:18.message and then he'll go all the way home and always end
:38:19. > :38:21.on a strong emotive word, which he does in his tweets.
:38:22. > :38:30.President Trump's words can easily get lost in translation.
:38:31. > :38:33.Being a journalist as well as a live translator, I understand how this
:38:34. > :38:35.can have significant consequences in terms of how people
:38:36. > :38:37.and policymakers in Iran perceive the American president.
:38:38. > :38:42.You almost need somebody who is an actor because unless you embody
:38:43. > :38:45.them and almost physically embody the gestures as you see the words,
:38:46. > :38:48.the meaning is going to get lost in translation.
:38:49. > :38:51.So for those impersonating Donald Trump, there are a few
:38:52. > :39:01.You know when he thinks he's got it, he'll start doing this threading
:39:02. > :39:04.the needle gesture and bashing the air, which is where he is being
:39:05. > :39:07.precise about hitting home with a strong, hard message.
:39:08. > :39:15.When he is dismissive, and this is where, for translating
:39:16. > :39:17.things you might think, now I need to change my tone
:39:18. > :39:19.because he doesn't necessarily mean this,
:39:20. > :39:22.he will go into a palms up gesture, just like a throwaway comment.
:39:23. > :39:27.Of course I'm going to give you all my financial statements.
:39:28. > :39:29.It seems interpreting Donald Trump as he speaks live,
:39:30. > :39:31.it takes more than just a straightforward word
:39:32. > :39:46.They have translated some of my report in the past. It is
:39:47. > :39:52.extraordinary. The other focus I have had today is on France.
:39:53. > :39:57.Investigators have widened their investigation into allegations
:39:58. > :40:02.facing the candidate on the right. The allegation as he paid money to
:40:03. > :40:06.his wife for work she may never have done. Today they are looking at
:40:07. > :40:17.allegations that his children were on the payroll when they were still
:40:18. > :40:24.at law school. French television will show an interview from 2007. I
:40:25. > :40:30.have never been his assistant. We both lived in Paris. We know they do
:40:31. > :40:34.things differently, the nepotism side of this is enough in itself.
:40:35. > :40:39.Even by French standards, giving hundreds of thousands of euros from
:40:40. > :40:46.work you never did, is that a bit too much? I think he is in serious
:40:47. > :40:52.problems. He has now slipped to third position. This is an election
:40:53. > :41:00.that the centre-right should be winning. He has said if he is placed
:41:01. > :41:05.under formal investigation he will stand aside. But there is this drug
:41:06. > :41:12.of allegations. We are in the run-up to the election. It might be his own
:41:13. > :41:16.side that pushes him in and. If he is out of the snow, or possibly out
:41:17. > :41:19.of this and the Conservatives can't find another candidate in time to
:41:20. > :41:25.get them up in the polls, everyone will look at the second round. Are
:41:26. > :41:37.there any polls in France that show Marine Le Pen and the National Front
:41:38. > :41:40.winning? The short answer is no. But there is that Trump effect in
:41:41. > :41:44.France, so there are disaffected voters flocking to the side of the
:41:45. > :42:02.National Front and she looks certain to get into the second round.
:42:03. > :42:10.After the last year we have had, who would bet against Marine Le Pen? I
:42:11. > :42:13.think we have to go to Paris to look at the election and Emmanuel Macron.
:42:14. > :42:32.Thank you. Just days after deciding to cancel
:42:33. > :42:35.a trip to a Harley-Davidson factory, President Trump has welcomed
:42:36. > :42:38.the company's CEO on the South Lawn The chief of the giant US motorcycle
:42:39. > :42:49.maker brought along a number of motorbikes to show off
:42:50. > :42:51.to the president prior Vice-President Mike Pence
:42:52. > :42:54.accompanied the president, who greeted the executives saying:
:42:55. > :42:57.'Made in America, Harley-Davidson'.
