President Trump sparks outrage
after allegedly making racist | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
comments about African countries. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:13 | |
Mr President, are you a racist? | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
As he comes under fire
from the press, his alleged remarks | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
are criticised by the United Nations
as racism. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:26 | |
It all stems from a meeting
in the Whitehouse about immigration. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
The President denies the remarks. | 0:00:31 | 0:00:32 | |
The man who sat next
to him says they're true. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
That's what he used,
those vile and vulgar comments - | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
calling the nations
they come from, "shitholes". | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
The exact words used
by the President, not just | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
once but repeatedly. | 0:00:41 | 0:00:45 | |
Is what's become an international
row going to cause serious | 0:00:45 | 0:00:47 | |
problems for the president -
or will it just add to his appeal | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
among his core support? | 0:00:50 | 0:00:51 | |
Also tonight: | 0:00:51 | 0:00:55 | |
The Government is urged to bring
construction giant Carillion | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
into public control amid fears
it could collapse. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
A fine of £10,000 for the surgeon
who branded his initials | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
onto his patients' livers. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:03 | |
Facebook gets a status update -
it says it will prioritise your | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
family and friends over advertisers
and news. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:12 | |
And weighty reflections on the crown
- the Queen as you've never seen | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
or heard her before. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:23 | |
Speech up, because if you did, your
neck would break! Later in the hour, | 0:01:24 | 0:01:29 | |
we have Sportsday on the BBC News
Channel with all the latest reports, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:34 | |
interviews and features from the BBC
Sports Centre. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:40 | |
Good evening. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:54 | |
President Trump is embroiled
in a row about whether he's a racist | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
after being forced to deny making
derogatory remarks, including | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
the use of an expletive,
about African countries. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
He's been accused of making
the comments in the White House, | 0:02:01 | 0:02:06 | |
during a meeting about his plans
to overhaul the immigration system. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:08 | |
A Democratic Senator,
who sat next to Mr Trump insists | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
the president did use the phrase,
repeatedly, and a United Nations | 0:02:10 | 0:02:14 | |
the President did use the phrase,
repeatedly, and a United Nations | 0:02:14 | 0:02:25 | |
spokesman has accused the President
of making racist comments. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:27 | |
A number | 0:02:27 | 0:02:28 | |
of African countries have
reacted with outrage. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
From Washington,
Nick Bryant reports. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
This is a great and important day...
The forces of American history seem | 0:02:32 | 0:02:38 | |
to collide at the White House today.
Donald Trump signing a proclamation | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
in honour of the civil rights
leader, Martin Luther King at the | 0:02:42 | 0:02:47 | |
moment he stands accused of using a
slur directed at African nations. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:52 | |
Here he stuck to the script.
Today we celebrate Dr King for | 0:02:52 | 0:02:58 | |
standing up for the self-evident
truth that Americans hold dear, that | 0:02:58 | 0:03:03 | |
no matter the colour of our skin or
the place of our birth we are all | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
created equal by God. Mr President
will you give an apology for the | 0:03:08 | 0:03:13 | |
statement yesterday? After the
ceremony, an unserve mownous | 0:03:13 | 0:03:18 | |
commotion.
Mr President are you a racist? Can | 0:03:18 | 0:03:25 | |
you answer these serious questions
about your statement, Sir? No! Mr | 0:03:25 | 0:03:31 | |
President are you a racist? It was
behind closed doors that Donald | 0:03:31 | 0:03:38 | |
Trump allegedly claimed that
immigrants came from shithole | 0:03:38 | 0:03:42 | |
countries, Donald Trump said he used
strong language with the Senators, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
though not that word but has been
contradicted by a senior Democrat | 0:03:46 | 0:03:51 | |
present.
I cannot believe in the history of | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
the White House, and the Oval Office
any President has spoken the words I | 0:03:55 | 0:04:00 | |
heard our President speak yesterday.
To no surprise, the president | 0:04:00 | 0:04:06 | |
started tweeting denying he used
those words. It is not true. He said | 0:04:06 | 0:04:14 | |
the hate-filled thinged and said
them repeatedly. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:18 | |
From the United Nations, the
stiffest of rebukes. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:22 | |
These are shocking and hateful
comments from the President of the | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
United States. There is no other
word that we can use but racist, you | 0:04:25 | 0:04:33 | |
cannot dismiss entire countries as
shitholes. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:39 | |
The comments were called
reprehencible and racist. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
Maybe just once maybe in another
part of the world but on this part | 0:04:43 | 0:04:48 | |
of the continent that word is an
insult. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
Build a wall was the cry of voters
who loved the Donald Trump hard line | 0:04:51 | 0:04:56 | |
stance during the election.
We're going to build a wall, folks. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
Don't worry.
And said to be doing a victory lap, | 0:05:00 | 0:05:06 | |
belief eking that row will re-up his
votes. Donald Trump launched the | 0:05:06 | 0:05:12 | |
campaign for the White House with an
attack on Mexican immigrants and | 0:05:12 | 0:05:15 | |
claimed falsely that Barack Obama
was not an American. His latest | 0:05:15 | 0:05:21 | |
racial controversy will please at
least some of the supporters at home | 0:05:21 | 0:05:26 | |
but undercuts US leadership abroad
and shows again how America first | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
can mean America alone.

President Trump's visit
to Britain next month is off. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
He HAD been due to attend
the official opening of the new US | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
embassy in South London. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:42 | |
But he tweeted he was not a "big
fan" of the new building and blamed | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
Barack Obama's administration
for a "bad deal". | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
Downing Street says an invitation
for a state visit will still take | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
place, although no date
has been set. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:51 | |
Our diplomatic correspondent
James Landale has more. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:59 | |
The new us embassy, more than $1
billion of prime American real | 0:06:00 | 0:06:06 | |
estate in South London, with its own
moat. A machinement, we are told, to | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
America's commitment to Britain,
that the US ambassador had hoped | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
would be formerly opened by Donald
Trump next month. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
Yes, I do hope. We will welcome him
when he comes. But he is not coming. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:25 | |
Donald Trump said he cancelled the
trip as he owe postsed the sale by | 0:06:25 | 0:06:30 | |
Barack Obama of what he killed: Only
to build a new one in an off | 0:06:30 | 0:06:37 | |
location for $1.2 dollars. A bad
deal. Wanted him to cut the ribbon, | 0:06:37 | 0:06:43 | |
no! A decision welcomed by his
critics. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
Here is a Head of State of another
country, not only promoting hatred | 0:06:46 | 0:06:51 | |
and division in his country but is
surely giving his online activity | 0:06:51 | 0:06:56 | |
guilty of doing the same in our
country. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:59 | |
The decision to sell the old embassy
was taken by President Bush, to find | 0:06:59 | 0:07:06 | |
a more secure location in a time of
terror. The old embassy had been the | 0:07:06 | 0:07:11 | |
scene of demonstrations. And
diplomats said it was the threat of | 0:07:11 | 0:07:16 | |
similar protests that had spooked Mr
Trump. | 0:07:16 | 0:07:20 | |
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan,
said there would be mass protests | 0:07:20 | 0:07:26 | |
like these but peaceful ones. Boris
Johnson accused Mr Khan of putting | 0:07:26 | 0:07:35 | |
US Lincolnshire UK relations at
risk. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
Here we have many others encouraging
large scale street protests against | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
him. I think it must be part of his
calculation. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
That is the point, in his first year
of office, Donald Trump has visited | 0:07:45 | 0:07:50 | |
the world. Visiting most other G7
countries and other European | 0:07:50 | 0:07:57 | |
nations, including France, Germany
and Belgium, the UK is notable for | 0:07:57 | 0:08:01 | |
its absence. The US ambassador says
that the fortress of glass | 0:08:01 | 0:08:08 | |
represents a new era between the US
and the UK, a strengthening of the | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
relationship. The fear of the
diplomats is that the President's | 0:08:12 | 0:08:15 | |
decision not to open the building
signals for him, at least, that | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
Britain is not a priority. Ministers
hope it will change when he comes, | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
if he comes.
It's an important diplomatic partner | 0:08:23 | 0:08:27 | |
for the UK. We want the close eest
possible relationship with the US | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
and look forward to a visit at some
point in the future. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:36 | |
For now, the closest we will get to
seeing Donald Trump is this wax | 0:08:36 | 0:08:42 | |
work, part of a PR stunt, life like
in every respect but he does not | 0:08:42 | 0:08:47 | |
speak or tweet. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:48 | |
but he does not speak or tweet. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:50 | |
Our North America Editor Jon
Sopel joins me now. | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
The real President Trump
tweets and makes comments | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
and causes some real offence. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
Yes it is hard to overstate in
America ares how puritan call public | 0:08:57 | 0:09:03 | |
discourse is. The networks, the
newspapers are agonising weather to | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |
use the word that the President did.
So shocking. But if a pollster were | 0:09:07 | 0:09:12 | |
to speak to Trump supporters and ask
if was presidential, they would say | 0:09:12 | 0:09:19 | |
no, and were they surprised? They
would say also, no, and does it | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
change your view of the President?
Also, no. What makes Donald Trump | 0:09:23 | 0:09:27 | |
popular is that he says the
unsayable, could say what others are | 0:09:27 | 0:09:32 | |
thinking and would get in trouble if
they did. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
It's as though given the account of
the meeting that Donald Trump | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
believes that there are the
countries, the Nato countries and | 0:09:39 | 0:09:45 | |
the shithole countries.
And the President has been talking | 0:09:45 | 0:09:49 | |
about another controversial issue
today? He has been talking about | 0:09:49 | 0:09:51 | |
Iran. The Iran nuclear deal done in
Barack Obama's time so, that if Iran | 0:09:51 | 0:09:57 | |
stopped the nuclear programme,
sanctions would be lifted. Donald | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
Trump was desperate to reimpose
sanctions as he believe it is is a | 0:10:00 | 0:10:05 | |
lousy deal. The European nations
have managed to persuade him to row | 0:10:05 | 0:10:10 | |
back. So for another 120 days the
Iran nuclear deal is intact without | 0:10:10 | 0:10:15 | |
change.
I suggested to a diplomat, is it a | 0:10:15 | 0:10:21 | |
victory but he said not so much a
victory, as a stay of execution. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:25 | |
Thank you. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
The Government is being
urged to bring contracts | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
from the construction giant
Carillion into public control | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
amid fears it could collapse. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:32 | |
It's a major supplier
to the Government and has contracts | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
in the rail industry -
including building HS2 - | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
in education and in the NHS. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:39 | |
It's struggled since reporting
half-year losses of over a billion | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
pounds and a significant pension
deficit. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
Our business editor
Simon Jack is here. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:49 | |
The BBC has learned tonight that
ministers are drawing | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
up plans to take over
Carillion prison contracts. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:55 | |
That's right. What we learned this
afternoon is a £200 million contract | 0:10:55 | 0:11:01 | |
to run 50 prince. The Ministry of
Justice is drawing up plans to bring | 0:11:01 | 0:11:06 | |
it back under public control. This
is a company in big trouble. It owns | 0:11:06 | 0:11:11 | |
the banks £900 million. It owns the
pension scheme, £600 million. It is | 0:11:11 | 0:11:16 | |
haemorrhaging money. It needs new
funds, the lenders don't want to | 0:11:16 | 0:11:21 | |
give them to them. It has had crisis
talks with banks, on Thursday a | 0:11:21 | 0:11:29 | |
huddle with a huddle of ministers
and today in talks with the pension | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
fund to find out what happens to
28,000 members' of that pension | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
scheme. The damage to the company is
severe. Losing 93% of its value | 0:11:37 | 0:11:43 | |
since this time last year. An army
of sub-contractors worried about | 0:11:43 | 0:11:48 | |
what happens and the model of
outsourcing some of the critical | 0:11:48 | 0:11:52 | |
public services to the public sector
is under attack. You said that the | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
Labour Party, the unions are saying
that they should be brought back to | 0:11:55 | 0:11:59 | |
the public control. Is Carillion too
big, to sensitive to fail? No, it is | 0:11:59 | 0:12:05 | |
not. Will the Government bend over
backwards to save the company? Yes, | 0:12:05 | 0:12:10 | |
it will. But only bending so far. So
a very anxious weekend for the | 0:12:10 | 0:12:16 | |
company in prospect.
Thank you. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
Thank you. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:19 | |
A surgeon who branded his initials
onto the livers of two transplant | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
patients has been fined £10,000
and given a community service order. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:25 | |
Simon Bramhall pleaded guilty to two
counts of assault in December. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:27 | |
His crimes - carried out at Queen
Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham - | 0:12:27 | 0:12:30 | |
were discovered when the patients
returned to hospital for further | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
surgery as Sima Kotecha reports. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
REPORTER: Mr Bramhall,
what's your reaction? | 0:12:36 | 0:12:37 | |
Simon Bramhall, once
a respected surgeon, | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
now a convicted criminal. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:43 | |
What would you like to say
to the patients, Mr Bramhall? | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
Today, he was fined £10,000
after pleading guilty to assaulting | 0:12:46 | 0:12:48 | |
two patients by marking his initials
on their livers. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
His victims were undergoing liver
transplants at the time. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:52 | |
In court, Judge Paul Farrer QC
told him: | 0:12:52 | 0:13:00 | |
Well, it was here
at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
in Birmingham where Bramhall
committed his offences. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
He marked the livers in 2013
and it was a year later, | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
after a disciplinary hearing,
that he resigned from his post. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:26 | |
Another of his patients, who also
underwent a liver transplant by him, | 0:13:26 | 0:13:30 | |
says he shouldn't be punished. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |
Signing his work is just his way
of showing the artwork he's done. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:37 | |
The fact that he's saved so many
lives through all the operations | 0:13:37 | 0:13:41 | |
he's carried out, mine included,
because without him I wouldn't be | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
here, just makes me think he needs
to carry on doing what he's good at. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:51 | |
Bramhall branded 'SB' on the organs
with an argon beam machine, | 0:13:51 | 0:13:55 | |
a heat-projecting device usually
used to stop any bleeding. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
The Crown Prosecution Service
compared its imprint | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
to a minor burn. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
What happened was a crime. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
The rule of law applies equally
to everybody, including doctors, | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
so it's important to hold people
to account when they commit a crime | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
of assault, and that's
what's happened here. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
The markings were discovered
after other surgeons noticed | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
them during operations. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:21 | |
Bramhall betrayed the trust
of his patients and took advantage | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
of them when they were
at their most vulnerable. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
The General Medical Council,
which has already issued him | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
with a formal warning,
will now decide whether to take any | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
further action against the surgeon. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |

Families searching for missing
relatives after the Manchester Arena | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
bombing were subjected to intrusive
media attention, according | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
to a progress report. | 0:14:46 | 0:14:47 | |
It's part of a review
by Lord Kerslake into the response | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
to the bombing in May last year
in which 22 people were killed. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
Our North of England correspondent
Judith Moritz has been speaking | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
to one of the families affected. | 0:14:56 | 0:15:00 | |
Within moments of the
Manchester Arena explosion, | 0:15:00 | 0:15:02 | |
the attack was worldwide news. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
Phone footage was
shared immediately. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
Camera crews and journalists
provided round-the-clock coverage | 0:15:10 | 0:15:13 | |
for days afterwards. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
And there were countless posts
on social media, as well. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:20 | |
There was huge interest
in the stories of those | 0:15:20 | 0:15:23 | |
most closely affected. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
They included the family
of Martyn Hett, one of those | 0:15:26 | 0:15:27 | |
killed in the blast. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:31 | |
Martyn had a large online following
and had previously been on TV. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:35 | |
His relatives quickly found
themselves in the spotlight. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
Press reporters arrived
at their house, before the family | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
knew that Martyn had died. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
We had people coming round,
knocking on the door, | 0:15:44 | 0:15:46 | |
ringing the bell, basically saying,
"Sorry for your loss, | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
but would you like to comment?" | 0:15:49 | 0:15:54 | |
He wasn't even officially dead yet. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
How can anybody be so cruel and say,
"sorry for your loss"? | 0:15:56 | 0:16:00 | |
We didn't find out officially
until that evening that he was dead. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:07 | |
The way the emergency services
responded to the Arena attack | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
is already being reviewed
by an independent panel. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
Now, it will also examine the role
which the media played | 0:16:14 | 0:16:17 | |
during the aftermath. | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
Much of the media handled families
in a very respectful way. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:23 | |
But we've heard examples where that
wasn't the case and we think that | 0:16:23 | 0:16:26 | |
needs to be explored and understood. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
# Walk on #. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
The long struggle of those whose
loved ones died at Hillsborough has | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
recently inspired a charter
for families bereaved | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
through public tragedy. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:41 | |
There are elements of the response
that could have been better. | 0:16:41 | 0:16:44 | |
The Arena review asks organisations
to sign up to it and put | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
the needs of such families
before their own reputations. | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
I want anybody who works
in our emergency services to know | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
that they will be supported
in coming forward to tell | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
it exactly as it was. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
Because that is what we need. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:02 | |
We need the families to have
the truth as quickly as possible. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
In March, the full review
into the attack will be published. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
Eight months after these 22 people
died, their families' lives | 0:17:07 | 0:17:11 | |
are still dominated by the tragedy. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:14 | |
Judith Moritz, BBC News, Manchester. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:19 | |
Facebook has announced what it says
is a major change to its news feed - | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
prioritising posts from family
and friends over those from | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
advertisers and media organisations. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
The change follows criticism
that too much fake news | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
and misinformation has been ending
up on the social network. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:32 | |
Facebook's founder, Mark Zuckerberg,
admits it could could mean people | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
spending less time on it,
which has hit the | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
company's share price. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:39 | |
Our media editor Amol Rajan reports. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:43 | |
Mark Zuckerberg's social network has
become of the biggest | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
distributors of news in history. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
Today, the company went back
to its social roots. | 0:17:48 | 0:17:50 | |
He said, one of our big focus areas
for 2018 is making sure the time | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
we all spend on Facebook
is time well spent. | 0:17:54 | 0:18:02 | |
Facebook's founder admits users
are being fed a heavy diet | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
of news and adverts,
together with the more personal | 0:18:06 | 0:18:09 | |
posts from friends and family. | 0:18:09 | 0:18:13 | |
In Bristol today, many young
Facebook users agreed. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
It's quite clogged up with adverts
for shopping and baby | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
things at the moment,
stuff I search on Google. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:24 | |
So I think it would be a lot better
if it was just based | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
around friends and family,
without any adverts. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
I just feel like I'm
being sold to the whole time. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
People are making assumptions
about my opinions, my tastes, | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
the things I'm interested in. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
Zuckerberg says, I'm changing
the goal I give our product teams | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
from focusing on helping you find
relevant content, to helping | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
you have more meaningful
social interactions. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:50 | |
This is the biggest change
to Facebook for many years. | 0:18:50 | 0:18:52 | |
It follows controversy over
the promotion of fake news, | 0:18:52 | 0:18:55 | |
with fears the platform has been
used by foreign powers | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
to subvert democracy. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
Today's changes aren't
driven by those concerns | 0:19:00 | 0:19:02 | |
over disinformation,
but they're clearly an attempt | 0:19:02 | 0:19:05 | |
to restore trust in a global brand
and the impact on our news ecosystem | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
could be huge. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:11 | |
Mark Zuckerberg clearly accepts that
not all news is of equal value, | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
but his changes could seriously
damage some reputable news providers | 0:19:14 | 0:19:18 | |
that have come to rely
on his platform for both | 0:19:18 | 0:19:20 | |
eyeballs and income. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:25 | |
Brands like HuffPost need the ad
revenue Facebook can drive. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:30 | |
The elephant in the room is fake
news and how they're trying | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
to clean up the timelines. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:36 | |
The fear for publishers like us
is that the baby gets thrown out | 0:19:36 | 0:19:39 | |
with the bath water and we lose
the really important real | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
journalism, along with the fake news
that they're trying to get rid of. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:46 | |
Google is often described as part
of a duopoly that is swallowing | 0:19:46 | 0:19:50 | |
the advertising and news industries,
together with Facebook. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:56 | |
Today, in a rare interview,
Google's most senior British | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
executive seemed to see this
as an opportunity. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
There's an upside to traditional
media moving to the digital world. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:06 | |
You can reach 5 billion
people on any device, | 0:20:06 | 0:20:09 | |
you can use video if you come
from the print industry | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
and vice versa. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
You know yourself as a journalist,
there's a huge ability to tell | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
the important stories in new ways,
and people are turning | 0:20:16 | 0:20:19 | |
to the digital world more than ever
before to understand the news. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
For Facebook's young missionary
founder, a short-term hit | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
in revenues is worth it to allay
accusations that it's becoming | 0:20:25 | 0:20:29 | |
the anti-social network. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:31 | |
Amol Rajan, BBC News. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:36 | |
A brief look at some
of the day's other news stories. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:40 | |
There's been a breakthrough
in the talks aimed at forming | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
a new coalition government
in Germany between the Chancellor, | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats
and their rivals, the Social | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
Democrats. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
They're now expected to discuss
a detailed programme for government, | 0:20:48 | 0:20:50 | |
including a pledge to work closely
with France to strengthen | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
the Eurozone. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:55 | |
A huge fire that closed
Nottingham railway station | 0:20:55 | 0:20:57 | |
is being treated as arson. | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
Over 60 firefighters took
several hours to bring | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
the blaze under control. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
It is believed the fire,
in the recently renovated station, | 0:21:03 | 0:21:06 | |
started in a toilet block. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:07 | |
Fortunately no-one was injured. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
Women in Saudi Arabia have joined
spectators at a professional | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
football match for the first time
in their country's history. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:17 | |
The move is being seen as the latest
step in the gradual easing | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
of restrictions on women
in the deeply conservative | 0:21:20 | 0:21:24 | |
Muslim kingdom. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:28 | |
Young women with the faulty BRCA
genes who have gone on to develop | 0:21:28 | 0:21:31 | |
breast cancer have the same survival
chances as those | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
who don't have them. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:34 | |
A study of almost 3000 women also
found outcomes were the same | 0:21:34 | 0:21:38 | |
whatever kind of treatment the young
women had - including mastectomies. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:43 | |
Mutations in the BRCA genes can
significantly increase a woman's | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
chance of developing breast cancer. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
Our medical correspondent
Fergus Walsh has more. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:52 | |
Diagnosed with breast cancer
when she was just 35 years | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
old and five months pregnant,
Laura faced childbirth | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
and then cancer treatment. | 0:21:59 | 0:22:03 | |
She carries a BRCA gene
mutation and so, like many | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
women in her position,
she opted to have | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
both breasts removed. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
I decided to have
a double mastectomy. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:15 | |
My oncologist was keen for me
to have it and I was, as well, | 0:22:15 | 0:22:19 | |
because I was told that the risk
of me getting cancer again | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
was 50%, so it didn't seem
worth the risk, really. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:27 | |
A new study followed nearly 3,000
women aged 40 or younger diagnosed | 0:22:27 | 0:22:31 | |
with breast cancer in Britain. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
It found no difference in survival
between those who carried | 0:22:33 | 0:22:36 | |
BRCA breast cancer genes
and those who didn't. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:41 | |
And it found no survival benefit
from a double mastectomy. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:45 | |
After ten years, around seven in ten
women survived in all groups. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:51 | |
So what does this mean for women
carrying a BRCA gene? | 0:22:51 | 0:22:55 | |
I think the key message is that it
allows them time to consider | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
all of their options. | 0:22:58 | 0:22:59 | |
So they may still need to go ahead
and have a double mastectomy | 0:22:59 | 0:23:03 | |
because of their risk
and for long-term survival. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
But I think it encourages us
to think that they can | 0:23:05 | 0:23:09 | |
take their time and discuss
and consider all of | 0:23:09 | 0:23:12 | |
their options and make
the right decision for them. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
This study didn't
look at prevention. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:17 | |
One in 450 women carry
faulty BRCA genes. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:22 | |
It means they have a 45-90% chance
of getting breast cancer, | 0:23:22 | 0:23:29 | |
and many women with a strong family
history of breast cancer | 0:23:29 | 0:23:31 | |
opt for preventative
double mastectomies, | 0:23:31 | 0:23:35 | |
which almost eliminates the risk. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
Like Angelina Jolie,
the actress and campaigner | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
who revealed she had
preventative surgery, | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
it led to greatly-raised awareness
of BRCA gene mutations. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:51 | |
This study looked only
at young women, like Laura. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |
95% of breast cancers
are in the over-40s. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:59 | |
Laura says if she had her time
again, she might have delayed having | 0:23:59 | 0:24:02 | |
a double mastectomy,
but she has no regrets. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:05 | |
Fergus Walsh, BBC News. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:10 | |
It's the Queen as you've never seen
or heard her before. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
To mark the 65th anniversary
of her Coronation in 1953, | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
Her Majesty has been giving a unique
insight into the day | 0:24:15 | 0:24:18 | |
and what it meant to her. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
She's been speaking to the royal
commentator Alastair Bruce | 0:24:20 | 0:24:22 | |
for a BBC programme. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:23 | |
A key piece of advice for any
would-be monarch - don't look down - | 0:24:23 | 0:24:27 | |
as our royal correspondent
Nicholas Witchell reports. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
She famously doesn't do interviews. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:32 | |
This is probably as
close as she'll get. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
A conversation with questions about
the Coronation, the Crown Jewels, | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
and the Imperial State Crown worn
by her and her father, | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
King George VI. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
Fortunately, my father and I have
about the same sort of shaped head. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:47 | |
Once you put it on, it stays. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
It just remains itself. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:53 | |
You have to keep your
head very still? | 0:24:53 | 0:24:54 | |
Yes. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:55 | |
It was huge then. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
Yes. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:58 | |
Very unwieldy. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:00 | |
You can't look down to read
a speech, you have take the speech | 0:25:00 | 0:25:03 | |
up, because if you did,
your neck would break, | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
it would fall off. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
It's difficult to always
remember that diamonds | 0:25:09 | 0:25:10 | |
are stones, so very heavy. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:15 | |
Yes. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:16 | |
So there are some
disadvantages to crowns. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:18 | |
But otherwise, they're
quite important things. | 0:25:18 | 0:25:22 | |
She rode to her coronation
in the gold State Coach. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:26 | |
It weighs four tons. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:27 | |
It's not built for comfort. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
Horrible. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:31 | |
It's not meant for
travelling in at all. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:34 | |
It's only sprung on leather. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:39 | |
So it rocks around a lot. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:40 | |
It's not very comfortable. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:41 | |
Were you in it for a long time? | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
Halfway round London. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:44 | |
Really? | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
We must have gone about
four or five miles - | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
we could only go at a walking pace. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
The horses couldn't
possibly go any faster. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
It's so heavy. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
65 years after the event,
a monarch talking | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
about her coronation -
the crown - the real one. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:03 | |
Nicholas Witchell, BBC News. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:07 | |
And you can see 'The Coronation' on
Sunday evening, at 8pm on BBC One. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:12 | |
That's it. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:13 | |
Now on BBC One, it's time
for the news where you are. | 0:26:13 | 0:26:16 |
