0:00:05 > 0:00:07You're watching Beyond 100 Days.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09President Trump creates a firestorm by retweeting videos from a far

0:00:09 > 0:00:12right British group.

0:00:12 > 0:00:14The inflammatory images are anti-Muslim - Downing Street

0:00:14 > 0:00:23says he shouldn't have done it.

0:00:23 > 0:00:28Far right groups in both the UK and the US bank the president for the

0:00:28 > 0:00:33retweets. Britain First says it is pleased with the publicity.

0:00:34 > 0:00:35The tweets drews condemnation in Parliament, but at

0:00:35 > 0:00:38the White House they are defending the President's decision.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40Look, again whether it is a real video.

0:00:40 > 0:00:43The threat is real, and that is what the President is talking about.

0:00:43 > 0:00:44And another one is gone.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47One of the biggest stars in US television has been

0:00:47 > 0:00:53fired after allegations of sexual misconduct.

0:00:53 > 0:00:54Also on the programme.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56I am rejecting the court's ruling.

0:00:56 > 0:00:57Stop please.

0:00:57 > 0:00:59Please sit down.

0:00:59 > 0:01:01A dramatic turn at an appeal hearing in The Hague,

0:01:01 > 0:01:04when a war criminal poisons himself inside the court and

0:01:04 > 0:01:07then dies in hospital.

0:01:07 > 0:01:08The cost of divorce.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12The UK will pay double what it offered the EU just two months ago

0:01:12 > 0:01:15in the hope it will pave the way to trade talks.

0:01:15 > 0:01:24Get in touch with us using the hashtag #Beyond100days.

0:01:29 > 0:01:32Hello, I am Katty Kay in Washington, Christian Fraser is in London

0:01:32 > 0:01:35and Donald Trump is causing outrage on both sides of the atlantic.

0:01:35 > 0:01:41We don't know why the President of America chose to retweet

0:01:41 > 0:01:43incendiary, unverified, anti-Muslim videos posted

0:01:43 > 0:01:46by the convicted leader of a far-right British group -

0:01:46 > 0:01:50but we do know that doing so has incensed America's closest ally.

0:01:50 > 0:01:53The videos are from the account of the British fascist

0:01:53 > 0:01:57Jayda Fransen, the deputy leader of the group, Britain First.

0:01:57 > 0:02:00She was convicted last year of a hate crime on a Muslim woman.

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Currently, she is on bail facing four charges of religiously

0:02:03 > 0:02:04aggravated harassment.

0:02:04 > 0:02:11Nick Bryant reports.

0:02:11 > 0:02:12CHANTING.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Britain First is a far right anti-Muslim group with a small

0:02:15 > 0:02:17membership that often engages in publicity stunts to try

0:02:17 > 0:02:20to raise its profile.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24Early this morning, it received a huge propaganda

0:02:24 > 0:02:26gift from Donald Trump, the America First president.

0:02:26 > 0:02:29On his Twitter feed, he retweeting three inflammatory

0:02:29 > 0:02:31videos from the group's deputy leader, the first claiming

0:02:31 > 0:02:41to show a Muslim migrant packing a man on crutches.

0:02:45 > 0:02:46This is the Fransen in action.

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Earlier this month, she was charged with using threatening behaviour

0:02:49 > 0:02:54during speeches she made above us.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56For her, these presidential retreats are manna from heaven.

0:02:56 > 0:02:58God bless you, Trump, she tweeted.

0:02:58 > 0:02:59God bless America.

0:02:59 > 0:03:01There has been a despairing response from the family

0:03:01 > 0:03:05of the murdered MP Jo Cox, who was killed by a right-wing

0:03:05 > 0:03:15extremist who shouted "Britain first".

0:03:15 > 0:03:17Britain First is hate against Muslims and Donald

0:03:17 > 0:03:18Trump is the president

0:03:18 > 0:03:21of our nearest ally, and the fact that he didn't check

0:03:21 > 0:03:23first or didn't even think about the content of those tweets

0:03:23 > 0:03:27before doing it, I think suggests that his judgment is hugely lacking.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31Downing Street has said it was wrong for the president to have done this,

0:03:31 > 0:03:34but added that his invitation to make a state visit to better

0:03:34 > 0:03:36next year still stands.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38As for the White House, it is unapologetic.

0:03:38 > 0:03:39The threat is real.

0:03:39 > 0:03:40The threat needs to be addressed.

0:03:40 > 0:03:43The threat has to be talked about, and that is what the president

0:03:44 > 0:03:48is doing in bringing that up.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51Previous US administrations have liked to think of themselves

0:03:51 > 0:03:54as beacons of democratic values, but that has not been a high

0:03:54 > 0:03:56priority for the Trump White House.

0:03:56 > 0:03:59Many people around the world will be saddened and sickened to see

0:03:59 > 0:04:01the president of the United States appearing to validate tweets

0:04:01 > 0:04:07from a far right group.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Ten months into this unorthodox and provocative presidency,

0:04:09 > 0:04:12Donald Trump still has the capacity to shock.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16Nick Bryant, BBC News, New York.

0:04:16 > 0:04:22Let's get reaction from Westminster -

0:04:22 > 0:04:25Nadhim Zahawi is a Conservative member of the Common Foreign Affairs

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Select Committee and joins us now from Westminster.

0:04:29 > 0:04:34Given that the president now knows where these tweets have come from

0:04:34 > 0:04:39and has seen the reaction in the UK should he delete them and apologise?

0:04:39 > 0:04:40I hope

0:04:40 > 0:04:41should he delete them and apologise? I hope that he will delete them.

0:04:41 > 0:04:51I've written to him tonight to explain to him why he tweeting this

0:04:51 > 0:04:57far right fascist failed group in the UK is completely wrong. We spend

0:04:57 > 0:05:00many resources both at the Foreign Office and in the State Department

0:05:00 > 0:05:06and other parts of government in the US and the UK trying to combat the

0:05:06 > 0:05:11ideology, this criminal ideology of Daesh and other groups who actually

0:05:11 > 0:05:18dehumanise our society to try and get young men who were influenced by

0:05:18 > 0:05:24these images that they put out then blow themselves up. For us to engage

0:05:24 > 0:05:30in retweeting that dehumanise the Muslim community in Great Britain is

0:05:30 > 0:05:36simply playing into their hands. The only people happy tonight other

0:05:36 > 0:05:41fascists and the terrorists that we are spending not just financial

0:05:41 > 0:05:44resources but human lives are going into defeating them, and we are

0:05:44 > 0:05:50doing a good job in countries like Iraq and Syria and elsewhere, but

0:05:50 > 0:05:57you only really defeat them when you defeat the ideology in such -- and

0:05:57 > 0:06:00by playing into their hands on such a naive way is wrong and

0:06:00 > 0:06:04unfortunate. In my letter I say to the president but he takes his

0:06:04 > 0:06:10presidency seriously and I hope on his visit to the UK he will join me

0:06:10 > 0:06:14in Coventry and Birmingham and other parts of our country, London,

0:06:14 > 0:06:18Manchester and Edinburgh and Glasgow, to see how the Muslim

0:06:18 > 0:06:22community is so integrated, and how our country is so diverse and as he

0:06:22 > 0:06:33would put it so beautiful!I understand that you think the visit

0:06:33 > 0:06:40should go ahead but how much damage do retweets like this do to the US-

0:06:40 > 0:06:43UK relationship, particularly over issues like counterterrorism?I

0:06:43 > 0:06:47guarantee that all the great men and women who work in counterterrorism

0:06:47 > 0:06:52in the UK across Europe, in the United States, would be heartbroken

0:06:52 > 0:06:57to night. The amount of effort they put into this, I know this because

0:06:57 > 0:07:02in my role on Foreign Affairs Committee I get to visit those

0:07:02 > 0:07:06countries where we are combating Daesh and other terrorist groups.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09They will be heartbroken tonight because much of their work will be

0:07:09 > 0:07:18undone by the sort of freak -- retweeting. It plays into their

0:07:18 > 0:07:22narratives, the narratives of the terrorists. They say this is what

0:07:22 > 0:07:26these societies think of you, that is why you should go out and attack

0:07:26 > 0:07:36them back. You are playing directly into their narrative.Thank you.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39And with us here in Washington is our political analyst

0:07:39 > 0:07:40Ron Christie who served as an advisor to

0:07:41 > 0:07:42President George W Bush.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45You were listening with me to Nadhim Zahawi speaking, do you think any of

0:07:45 > 0:07:49that goes through Donald Trump's mind when he decides to press

0:07:49 > 0:07:55retweet and videos like this?No. What really worries me is where is

0:07:55 > 0:07:58the president getting this information? Is he looking at

0:07:58 > 0:08:02YouTube and far right-wing groups in the UK and saying, I really like

0:08:02 > 0:08:08this? Or is it someone like Steve Bannon feeding it to him? This is

0:08:08 > 0:08:13very destructive. It is destructive to the way America is perceived

0:08:13 > 0:08:16around the world and frankly destructive to the way the president

0:08:16 > 0:08:19conducts himself in office. I'm stunned and angered by these

0:08:19 > 0:08:26retweets. This is so far beneath the dignity of the office that he holds.

0:08:26 > 0:08:32The thing that worries me is he and his supporters love this.Everybody

0:08:32 > 0:08:36knows the president now acts to play to his base, he's done it again.

0:08:36 > 0:08:42Explain to us the processes that were in place in the George W Bush

0:08:42 > 0:08:45administration. That would have prevented this kind of thing from

0:08:45 > 0:08:50happening. We all remember the speech the president gave after 911

0:08:50 > 0:08:55at the grand Mosque in Washington, why aren't those things in place in

0:08:55 > 0:08:59Washington today? Why isn't there someone who has the power to go and

0:08:59 > 0:09:02say this is counter-productive?The current White House chief of staff

0:09:02 > 0:09:10is there to manage the staff and not manage the president. With us, the

0:09:10 > 0:09:13staff managed the president. Any piece of paper that went to the

0:09:13 > 0:09:18President's descant been reviewed by senior staff, any statement, any

0:09:18 > 0:09:21speech, anything he would otter would have had review. I spent so

0:09:21 > 0:09:29much of my time doing paperwork. I can tell you with 100% certainty

0:09:29 > 0:09:33there is no staff control over him and Twitter, and I think it's

0:09:33 > 0:09:38dangerous to the office he holds. I'm sure you're aware there has been

0:09:38 > 0:09:41a furious reaction across the political do abide in the UK today.

0:09:41 > 0:09:46What those people might say is where is the furious reaction in the

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Republican party in the United States? When are they going to rein

0:09:49 > 0:09:54him in?That is an excellent question. As an establishment

0:09:54 > 0:10:02Republican I can say this is repugnant and where is the outrage?

0:10:02 > 0:10:07At this juncture it shows you how far the President's political

0:10:07 > 0:10:11standing is on Capitol Hill. They are having their own discussions and

0:10:11 > 0:10:14negotiations about trying to move tax reform legislation. Frankly

0:10:14 > 0:10:19there has been a lot of ignoring of the president and his antics as they

0:10:19 > 0:10:23tried to figure out what can we pass, what can we do to make sure we

0:10:23 > 0:10:26get re-elected in the next election cycle. It doesn't surprise me sadly

0:10:26 > 0:10:30that they aren't talking about this, because they are in their own

0:10:30 > 0:10:37self-preservation mode.You've got King Abdullah of Jordan in

0:10:37 > 0:10:41Washington today. This is a time when he needs a Muslim coalition in

0:10:41 > 0:10:46the Middle East. He spent a lot of time on that, meeting the Crown

0:10:46 > 0:10:50Prince in Riyadh. And yet he doesn't seem to see the conflict of interest

0:10:50 > 0:10:54that he's sending out this sort of stuff and at the same time saying we

0:10:54 > 0:11:00are one of your closest allies?This is an excellent follow one question.

0:11:00 > 0:11:07If the George W Bush White House protocol we had in place, we had a

0:11:07 > 0:11:10scripted response of how is the president going to interact with the

0:11:10 > 0:11:16king of Jordan. Now we are talking about a tweet that has offended

0:11:16 > 0:11:19leaders and nations around the world. The president needs to

0:11:19 > 0:11:25maintain a sense of decorum so he doesn't step over his own message.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29We are talking about bigotry, fascism and tweets, not one of our

0:11:29 > 0:11:34strongest allies who is here to show off our relationship in Washington,

0:11:34 > 0:11:44DC today.Thank you. Ron is normally a mild mannered kind of guy when he

0:11:44 > 0:11:49comes on 100 Days but I could feel it sitting here next to him in the

0:11:49 > 0:11:52studio, the level of anger he is feeling.

0:11:53 > 0:11:56It's not just about the dignity of the presidential office, it's about

0:11:56 > 0:12:00damage done to the US UK relationship and about damage done

0:12:00 > 0:12:04to America's standing once again around the world under this

0:12:04 > 0:12:08president.I'm going to call it race baiting and it's not the first time

0:12:08 > 0:12:19he's done it. We've talked about on Monday his use of the term

0:12:19 > 0:12:24"Pocahontas" when he's standing next to Navajo veterans. On Wednesday he

0:12:24 > 0:12:32has revised the claims around Obama's birth certificate. And now

0:12:32 > 0:12:35this. He vowed that he would be a president to everyone in the United

0:12:35 > 0:12:40States and its hard to square that with the events this week. He has

0:12:40 > 0:12:44offended every minority and ethnic group going. It's difficult to see

0:12:44 > 0:12:49who else there is left to a friend. This issue of Muslims is important

0:12:49 > 0:12:53and it's important that Ron raised Steve Bannon because he has been a

0:12:53 > 0:12:56propagator of this message. During the campaign it was President Trump

0:12:56 > 0:13:01who said Muslims hated the West and hated Americans and I think this

0:13:01 > 0:13:04comes from that place as well.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07A former Bosnian Croat general has died at a UN tribunal in The Hague

0:13:07 > 0:13:08after drinking a phial of poison.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11Slobodan Praljak had just been told his appeal against a 20 year

0:13:11 > 0:13:13sentence for war crimes had been rejected.

0:13:13 > 0:13:16As the verdict was being read out the 72-year old general raised

0:13:16 > 0:13:19a small brown bottle to his lips and drank it in full

0:13:19 > 0:13:21view of the cameras.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23Anna Holligan reports from The Hague.

0:13:23 > 0:13:27This was supposed to be a routine hearing, but as his final

0:13:27 > 0:13:29judgment was being read out, Slobodan Praljak

0:13:30 > 0:13:32swallowed something.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35Slobodan Praljak is not a war criminal.

0:13:35 > 0:13:39I am rejecting the court ruling.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42I have taken poison.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44This courtroom is now a crime scene.

0:13:44 > 0:13:50Don't take away the glass he used when he drank something.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Proceedings were immediately halted.

0:13:53 > 0:13:54We suspend.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56Please, the curtains.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58Cameras captured a few moments of confusion before

0:13:58 > 0:14:04the live broadcast was cut.

0:14:04 > 0:14:08Slobodan Praljak was a commander of the Bosnian Croat forces,

0:14:08 > 0:14:11guilty of destroying Mostar's iconic Ottoman-era bridge and

0:14:11 > 0:14:15persecuting Muslims.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Outside the court, the ambulances arrived.

0:14:18 > 0:14:22Fire crews wearing oxygen tanks on their backs ran inside.

0:14:22 > 0:14:27This was not the ending the court had envisaged.

0:14:27 > 0:14:30This UN tribunal was set up before the end of the war,

0:14:30 > 0:14:33and has surpassed expectations by dealing with every one

0:14:33 > 0:14:36of the 161 suspects.

0:14:36 > 0:14:40But the fact that one of them was able to smuggle in a deadly

0:14:40 > 0:14:43poison and take it in front of the live cameras will

0:14:43 > 0:14:47leave an indelible mark on this court's legacy.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50While it has faced allegations of bias from politicians

0:14:50 > 0:14:55on all sides, many of the victims believe this institution has given

0:14:55 > 0:15:00them some form of justice.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Now the question is, how could an institution with such

0:15:02 > 0:15:11tight security and impressive record allow such a fatal lapse?

0:15:11 > 0:15:20Anna Holligan, BBC News, The Hague.

0:15:20 > 0:15:24That is the weirdest story. Let's look at Brexit.

0:15:24 > 0:15:26The British government has significantly increased the amount

0:15:26 > 0:15:28of money it's prepared to offer the European Union as part

0:15:28 > 0:15:29of the Brexit process.

0:15:29 > 0:15:32The BBC understands the UK has agreed to pay between 40

0:15:32 > 0:15:34and 50 billion euros over several years in an attempt

0:15:34 > 0:15:37to kick-start the negotiations on a future trade deal.

0:15:37 > 0:15:40It is a lot more than the 20 billion euros Theresa May was offering.

0:15:40 > 0:15:42The EU's chief negotiator Michel Barnier said today

0:15:42 > 0:15:45the negotiation is not yet over - more work is needed before

0:15:45 > 0:15:47trade talks can begin - but the reaction in Brussels has

0:15:47 > 0:15:53been broadly positive.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Let's catch up with our political correspondent Vicki Young

0:15:55 > 0:15:58who is in Westminster and our Europe correspondent, Damian Grammaticas

0:15:58 > 0:16:03who is in Brussels.

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Positive noises on the cash but I'm reading comments that have dropped

0:16:06 > 0:16:10in the last few minutes from the Irish European Commission member

0:16:10 > 0:16:14Phil Hogan who says we need written commitments from the UK and what

0:16:14 > 0:16:21they intend to do to resolve the issue that the border.Yes. This is

0:16:21 > 0:16:25two of the three big issues that are under discussion at the minute.

0:16:25 > 0:16:31These are all the issues that relate to the UK's withdrawal and exit from

0:16:31 > 0:16:36the EU. They have to be settled at this stage. On the money, the UK has

0:16:36 > 0:16:43come forward with this big offer. The EU side still saying this is

0:16:43 > 0:16:47still under negotiation, they are waiting for Theresa May to come here

0:16:47 > 0:16:50on Monday when she will have a meeting with the president of the

0:16:50 > 0:16:56European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker. They need all of this

0:16:56 > 0:16:59detailed very carefully if they are to sign off on that side of things

0:16:59 > 0:17:04and say there has been sufficient progress. Equally, the Irish issue

0:17:04 > 0:17:11is a really difficult one. They're the EU's position and the Irish

0:17:11 > 0:17:14position is that what the UK is playing at the minute is unworkable.

0:17:14 > 0:17:18That is that the UK wants to leave all of the EU structures, its

0:17:18 > 0:17:22internal market, customs union, and have no border controls on the

0:17:22 > 0:17:33frontier between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The

0:17:33 > 0:17:37Irish and the EU saying that is an walkable, how are they going to

0:17:37 > 0:17:42resolve this, they are waiting for answers from the UK -- that is

0:17:42 > 0:17:45unworkable.The fact Brussels is happy with this amount of money that

0:17:45 > 0:17:50seems to have been offered from Westminster, presumably that will

0:17:50 > 0:17:55make Brexiteers unhappy, how are they going to spin this one because

0:17:55 > 0:17:59it's so much more than what was mooted in September?Presentation

0:17:59 > 0:18:03will come into it but probably not yet. It's important to say that

0:18:03 > 0:18:11Britain hasn't signed the cheque. This is a long-term promise, if you

0:18:11 > 0:18:14like. The reaction from the so-called Brexiteers today has been

0:18:14 > 0:18:18split. There have been a few he's got up in the House of Commons and

0:18:18 > 0:18:24said this is outrageous, we have could it be back to capitulate and

0:18:24 > 0:18:28legally we don't have to pay a single penny. Others say it should

0:18:28 > 0:18:33be tied to whatever trade deal we get, it should be tied to a

0:18:33 > 0:18:38free-trade deal. Then there are others on the remains I to say

0:18:38 > 0:18:43everyone has been conned by people like Boris Johnson who went around

0:18:43 > 0:18:48Britain in a bus saying you will get £350 million back once we leave the

0:18:48 > 0:18:51European Union. Then there are the pragmatists and they are on all

0:18:51 > 0:18:55sides, they are the majority House of Commons who felt this would have

0:18:55 > 0:18:59to happen. But we have commitments, they are ongoing commitments, this

0:18:59 > 0:19:03is needed to be done in order to move to the next stage and the

0:19:03 > 0:19:06long-term they feel if we leave the European Union we are paying a net

0:19:06 > 0:19:12amount of around £8.5 billion a year and in the longer term it could save

0:19:12 > 0:19:16us money.Critical meeting on Monday between Theresa May and Jean-Claude

0:19:16 > 0:19:20Juncker. We shouldn't lose sight of the fact that in a couple of weeks'

0:19:20 > 0:19:24time in the European Council meeting there are 27 countries who will have

0:19:24 > 0:19:28their own say on this.Yes, and that's a crucial point, because it's

0:19:28 > 0:19:34part of the reason why the EU is saying this is not all settled yet.

0:19:34 > 0:19:40First we have to get over the hurdle of next week when the deadline is

0:19:40 > 0:19:45there for the UK to have done enough to satisfy the EU's negotiators.

0:19:45 > 0:19:51What those negotiators then say if they are happy we'll go to the 27

0:19:51 > 0:19:56other countries in the EU in the middle of December, at their big

0:19:56 > 0:20:00summit when they will be here. They will be the ones who will sign off

0:20:00 > 0:20:04and say yes, they are happy with what the UK is now proposing, or

0:20:04 > 0:20:08know they are not. If they say nope we have a serious problem. If they

0:20:08 > 0:20:12say yes they are happy it will then be the green light to move things

0:20:12 > 0:20:17forward to discussing the future ties between the UK and the EU. But

0:20:17 > 0:20:22still, the indications are there are still some difficult issues. The

0:20:22 > 0:20:27money isn't totally settled yet. The issue of Ireland isn't and neither

0:20:27 > 0:20:31is the issue of how to deal with citizens left on the two sides, and

0:20:31 > 0:20:35what sort of courts will guarantee their rights in the future.Thank

0:20:35 > 0:20:37you.

0:20:37 > 0:20:39The White House says America will impose more

0:20:39 > 0:20:41sanctions on North Korea following yesterday's missile test.

0:20:41 > 0:20:43President Trump also spoke to the Chinese leader after the test

0:20:43 > 0:20:47and asked Beijing to do everything possible to press North Korea.

0:20:47 > 0:20:53But it's still not clear how effective any of this will be.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56The President's assurances North Korea will be dealt with,

0:20:56 > 0:20:57belies the reality of the situation.

0:20:57 > 0:20:58There are no good options.

0:20:58 > 0:21:00The last test was mid September.

0:21:00 > 0:21:03And there had been some optimism in Washington that Mr Trump's tough

0:21:03 > 0:21:05talk was given Pyongyang pause for thought.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Optimism seemingly misplaced.

0:21:07 > 0:21:14This missle flew higher and longer than any missile fired before.

0:21:14 > 0:21:17Bruce Klingner, was the CIA's Deputy Division Chief for Korea

0:21:17 > 0:21:24and is now at the Heritage Foundation.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28You have told us before that you think North Korea is in the endgame

0:21:28 > 0:21:33towards creating a nuclear missile, to being able to have the capacity

0:21:33 > 0:21:36to send it long distances. When Donald Trump says he can handle the

0:21:36 > 0:21:43situation it will be handled, what does he actually mean?There's a lot

0:21:43 > 0:21:48of uncertainty. Earlier this year the Trump administration had several

0:21:48 > 0:21:53comments that suggested it was considering a military attack, even

0:21:53 > 0:21:56if we didn't feel North Korea was about to attack. That kind of talk

0:21:56 > 0:22:01has been toned down in recent months. Rex Tillerson's response

0:22:01 > 0:22:05seemed to focus more on pressure and diplomacy rather than a military

0:22:05 > 0:22:11strike. The additional sanctions could be taking the gloves off and

0:22:11 > 0:22:15secondary sanctions against Chinese violators of US law, or it could be

0:22:15 > 0:22:19preventing the executive order of the month ago where it would be

0:22:19 > 0:22:22giving businesses the choice to either do business with North Korea

0:22:22 > 0:22:28or use the US financial system.What did you learn from this latest test

0:22:28 > 0:22:32that you might not have known before, in terms of North Korea's

0:22:32 > 0:22:38progress in being able to create the missile and have it delivered a

0:22:38 > 0:22:47long-distance?There have been a lots of downplaying of North Korean

0:22:47 > 0:22:49capabilities and people are surprised when they do exactly what

0:22:49 > 0:22:53they say they are going to do. But yesterday's launch showed was that

0:22:53 > 0:23:00it is a new ICBM. Whereas before the other to the estimated range was

0:23:00 > 0:23:04half of the continental United States perhaps including New York

0:23:04 > 0:23:08and Washington, yesterday's launch had been flown on a normal

0:23:08 > 0:23:13trajectory would encompass the entire continental US.I had to

0:23:13 > 0:23:19check the stats to make sure someone had hadn't got it wrong. It went

0:23:19 > 0:23:222800 miles into the air, ten times above the height of the

0:23:22 > 0:23:34International Space Station. Exactly. What North Korea has done

0:23:34 > 0:23:38with a three ICBM launches is flown them to an unusually high trajectory

0:23:38 > 0:23:43so as not to fly over Japan. With their intermediate-range missiles

0:23:43 > 0:23:48they've recently flown twice over Japan and many of us had expected

0:23:48 > 0:23:52the next ICBM test would be a long-range distance test into the

0:23:52 > 0:23:57Pacific which would require flying over Japan but also enable them to

0:23:57 > 0:24:04demonstrate their range capability more blatantly as well as to show a

0:24:04 > 0:24:07re-entry vehicle capability. I still think they will do that test but it

0:24:07 > 0:24:10will perhaps be the next one.Lets be realistic, sanctions aren't going

0:24:10 > 0:24:15to stop this regime. We have been saying we will have to do something

0:24:15 > 0:24:23about it. We now entering the critical window?We should point out

0:24:23 > 0:24:27that if the metric is that North Korea hasn't abandoned its nuclear

0:24:27 > 0:24:34weapons, of course diplomacy has a 25 year record of failure and eight

0:24:34 > 0:24:37international agreements that North Korea hasn't abided by. Sanctions

0:24:37 > 0:24:41serve a number of purposes beyond getting them to abide by UN

0:24:41 > 0:24:45resolutions and their commitments. They are enforcing UN resolutions

0:24:45 > 0:24:49and US and international law. They are imposing a penalty or pain and

0:24:49 > 0:24:53those that violate them. It also puts in place measures to make it

0:24:53 > 0:24:58harder for North Korea to import items including money from illicit

0:24:58 > 0:25:02activities and it puts in place harder proliferation or counter

0:25:02 > 0:25:07proliferation measures. I would argue on four of the five it's been

0:25:07 > 0:25:10successful.Thank you.

0:25:10 > 0:25:13It's interesting, listening to Bruce, he clearly said there are no

0:25:13 > 0:25:20good options. But doing anything other than what we are doing at the

0:25:20 > 0:25:28moment but Abe retaliatory strike, that's not an option either. We had

0:25:28 > 0:25:32to carry on with the sanctions and hope that something comes on the

0:25:32 > 0:25:37table.The president has been more restrained than he normally is on

0:25:37 > 0:25:39this case.

0:25:39 > 0:25:40This is Beyond 100 Days from the BBC.

0:25:40 > 0:25:44Coming up for viewers on the BBC News Channel and BBC World News -

0:25:44 > 0:25:46claims of sexual misconduct against one of the biggest names

0:25:46 > 0:25:47in American television.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50And the view from Gibraltar, we speak to the territory's

0:25:50 > 0:25:53Chief Minister about what sort of future he'd like for the Rock

0:25:53 > 0:25:54in a post-Brexit Britain.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56That's still to come.

0:26:08 > 0:26:12It's going to be a cold night tonight with frost more widely. A

0:26:12 > 0:26:16lot of cloud we had across crossing land areas and towards the West will

0:26:16 > 0:26:21melt away. We'll have clear skies. We are likely to keep some cloud in

0:26:21 > 0:26:25eastern areas of the UK where we had some showers today. We've also got

0:26:25 > 0:26:29some strong winds for eastern Scotland, eastern coastal areas of

0:26:29 > 0:26:34England, where we will see showers continuing overnight. More showers

0:26:34 > 0:26:36from Northern Ireland clipping West Wales and the far south-west of

0:26:36 > 0:26:40England. There is a risk of icy patches overnight. Lowest

0:26:40 > 0:26:44temperatures inland with those clearer skies, widespread frost. The

0:26:44 > 0:26:49tickly cold in the countryside. -- particularly cold in the

0:26:49 > 0:26:55countryside. Away from northern Scotland, the rest of Scotland

0:26:55 > 0:27:00bright and sunny. Wintry showers and rain showers across Northern

0:27:00 > 0:27:04Ireland. Coldest air down the eastern coastal areas with a mixture

0:27:04 > 0:27:11of rain, hail, sleet and snow. Back into some showers just running into

0:27:11 > 0:27:15Pembrokeshire and towards Cornwall. Those showers in the West will

0:27:15 > 0:27:20continue on and off all day. Those strong winds will continue to blow

0:27:20 > 0:27:24some showers down eastern coastal areas of Scotland and England. Some

0:27:24 > 0:27:28of them will be wintry. A large parts of the UK tomorrow will be dry

0:27:28 > 0:27:32and quite sunny as well. But it will be a cold day. Temperature is no

0:27:32 > 0:27:39better than 3-4. Towards the end of the week and the first day of

0:27:39 > 0:27:41December, we will see some cloud coming into Scotland and Northern

0:27:41 > 0:27:46Ireland. Much brighter with sunshine the England and Wales. Showers down

0:27:46 > 0:27:52eastern side of England. There will be a cold wind. For most, the wind

0:27:52 > 0:27:57becoming lighter. Those temperatures struggling up to 4-6. Bing is

0:27:57 > 0:28:01changing as we head into the weekend. High-pressure shrinking

0:28:01 > 0:28:05towards the West. Allowing these weak weather fronts to topple in

0:28:05 > 0:28:10around the top of that, coming in from the Atlantic. The really cold

0:28:10 > 0:28:15air gets squeezed away to the near continent. Instead we get more of a

0:28:15 > 0:28:18westerly wind. That will tend to lift the temperature is drawing in

0:28:18 > 0:28:22milder air. It comes with a good deal of cloud. By the second half of

0:28:22 > 0:28:26the weekend a little more sunshine for Scotland and Northern Ireland

0:28:26 > 0:28:31and temperatures could be in double figures.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08This is Beyond 100 Days, with me, Katty Kay, in Washington.

0:30:08 > 0:30:09Christian Fraser's in London.

0:30:09 > 0:30:10Our top stories:

0:30:10 > 0:30:13The UK Prime Minister says President Trump was wrong to retweet

0:30:13 > 0:30:21three anti-Muslim videos posted by a far-right British group.

0:30:31 > 0:30:34Will automation make your job obsolete?

0:30:34 > 0:30:38The workforce is in for some big changes and we assess the impact.

0:30:38 > 0:30:42And the Chief Minister of Gibraltar tells us he's not ready to trust

0:30:42 > 0:30:43anyone when it comes to finalising a deal

0:30:43 > 0:30:51on their post-Brexit border with Spain.

0:30:51 > 0:30:53In the very cynical eye on what

0:30:53 > 0:30:53In the very cynical eye on what

0:30:53 > 0:30:56In the very cynical eye on what Madrid is doing and, indeed, what

0:30:56 > 0:30:59London is doing and that is what the people of Gibraltar pay me

0:31:00 > 0:31:10Let us know your thoughts by using the hashtag #Beyond100Days.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14Another big TV star in America has been fired for sexual misconduct.

0:31:14 > 0:31:17Matt Lauer, morning anchor for NBC News, is arguably the biggest,

0:31:17 > 0:31:22highest paid name so far to succumb to the wave of allegations.

0:31:22 > 0:31:24Lauer's termination came after a detailed

0:31:24 > 0:31:27complaint from a colleague about inappropriate

0:31:27 > 0:31:28sexual behaviour.

0:31:28 > 0:31:31And NBC thinks it wasn't an isolated incident.

0:31:31 > 0:31:34It comes just a week after CBS News fired its morning anchor,

0:31:34 > 0:31:37Charlie Rose for similar reasons.

0:31:37 > 0:31:42Together these two sackings mark a sea change in the industry.

0:31:42 > 0:31:45Mr Lauer's co-host Savannah Guthrie broke the news on the Today

0:31:45 > 0:31:49show this morning.

0:31:49 > 0:31:54For the moment, all we can say is that we are heartbroken. I am

0:31:54 > 0:31:58heartbroken for Matt, here's my dear, dear friend and my partner and

0:31:58 > 0:32:03he is beloved by many, many people here. And I am heartbroken for the

0:32:03 > 0:32:06brave colleague that came forward to tell her story and any other woman

0:32:06 > 0:32:11who have their own stories to tell and we are grappling with a dilemma

0:32:11 > 0:32:15that so many people have faced these past few weeks, how can you

0:32:15 > 0:32:27reconcile your love for someone with the revolution that

0:32:34 > 0:32:37they have behaved badly. And I don't know the answer to that, but I do

0:32:37 > 0:32:39know that this recognition that some many organisations have gone through

0:32:39 > 0:32:42is important, it's long overdue and it must result in workplaces were

0:32:42 > 0:32:43all women, all people, few safe and respected.

0:32:43 > 0:32:46And for more we're joined by Paul Farhi who reports

0:32:46 > 0:32:48on the media for the Washington Post.

0:32:48 > 0:33:03Will we see that the change now? -- -- the sea change now.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07They just keep following like dominoes. It sends a strong message

0:33:07 > 0:33:12to people that the workplace has changed. This conduct is intolerable

0:33:12 > 0:33:18and companies will not put up with it any longer.

0:33:18 > 0:33:23Is it something particular about American television organisations

0:33:23 > 0:33:27and stars, the smell Star is at the top, that allows this kind of

0:33:27 > 0:33:34culture to fester or has allowed it? Yes, I think so. People in the

0:33:34 > 0:33:37television business become very powerful. It's a kind of business in

0:33:37 > 0:33:40which there are many, many people who would like to be in it and very

0:33:40 > 0:33:45few jobs within it. That magnifies the power of the people who run the

0:33:45 > 0:33:51business. We saw this last year with Fox News and the editing of Roger

0:33:51 > 0:33:55Ailes as a hassle, Bill O'Reilly, and some of the stars of that. But

0:33:55 > 0:34:00it turns out that that was just endemic, part of the endemic weave

0:34:00 > 0:34:04that we are seen throughout the business. I also say it is not just

0:34:04 > 0:34:09television. It is politics, in government and in Hollywood. These

0:34:09 > 0:34:16three industries are very attractive to people and, again, the people who

0:34:16 > 0:34:20run these businesses having a lot of power over the people who want to be

0:34:20 > 0:34:25in these businesses.It's also about money, isn't it? It was interesting

0:34:25 > 0:34:29that money that rumours were doing the rounds earlier this week and NBC

0:34:29 > 0:34:33has tried to get ahead of the car. That is right. We were stealing

0:34:33 > 0:34:38about Matt Lauer last night. We tried to check it but couldn't get

0:34:38 > 0:34:42anywhere. They pre-empted whatever reporting was going on and we had

0:34:42 > 0:34:48some was. They announced it themselves. What's interesting here

0:34:48 > 0:34:53is that most of these studies have been broken by news organisations

0:34:53 > 0:34:57outside, from the outside. This is one of the rear instances where the

0:34:57 > 0:35:01story was broken from the inside. NBC News and the today show were the

0:35:01 > 0:35:08first to report on themselves.The anchors are being the ones that are

0:35:08 > 0:35:13fired. They are the ones who have committed these infringements on

0:35:13 > 0:35:16other women, but the organisations have protected these anchors for a

0:35:16 > 0:35:21long time and we haven't heard stories of managers at the spec

0:35:21 > 0:35:26networks also been called to account.Should they be? Will they

0:35:26 > 0:35:30be? Your premise is a little bit suspect. We haven't seen women come

0:35:30 > 0:35:35forward to accuse some of these anchors up until now and I do

0:35:35 > 0:35:38believe that result of the Hardy Wednesday in effect. This wave that

0:35:38 > 0:35:51has come about. -- Harvey Weinstein. It's certainly true in the case of

0:35:51 > 0:35:55Fox News that the guy who ran the company had known the report about

0:35:55 > 0:36:00himself and could probably get away with his own harassing behaviour.

0:36:00 > 0:36:04What is new is that women feel emboldened to come forward and

0:36:04 > 0:36:07complain about the treatment that they have had to suffer for so many

0:36:07 > 0:36:17years.Thank you very much. You have written a piece for BBC

0:36:17 > 0:36:22online about why this is happening in America, why there are more

0:36:22 > 0:36:24allegations within the media industry in the United States.

0:36:24 > 0:36:29Why do you think that there is? I did not write the piece, but I was

0:36:29 > 0:36:33reading it this morning. It is to do with UK libel was, which are much

0:36:33 > 0:36:36stricter and so these allegations are not in to come forward as much

0:36:36 > 0:36:41in the UK. The onus is on proof from the accusers aside and that is very

0:36:41 > 0:36:46often hard to get. I honestly can't believe it's because this is not

0:36:46 > 0:36:50happening in Britain. This is not a uniquely Britain -- American

0:36:50 > 0:36:55phenomenon. It's true that American anchors are paid much more, I think

0:36:55 > 0:37:08Matt Lauer was being paid $25 million. It does foster a culture

0:37:08 > 0:37:12where these people are treated on an elevated platform and have a huge

0:37:12 > 0:37:15amount of power. I don't think in which a kid themselves that is not

0:37:15 > 0:37:19happening in other countries as well. The BBC presenters who have

0:37:19 > 0:37:23been convicted for these sorts of claims, so there we go.

0:37:23 > 0:37:25The British Prime Minister Theresa May is in the Middle East,

0:37:25 > 0:37:28making her first to Iraq where she met with her

0:37:28 > 0:37:29counterpart Haider al-Abadi.

0:37:29 > 0:37:31Mrs May praised the country's efforts in the battle

0:37:31 > 0:37:32against the so-called Islamic State.

0:37:32 > 0:37:35As well as praising local security forces and pledging UK support,

0:37:35 > 0:37:37she also reiterated British support for a united Iraq, two months

0:37:37 > 0:37:40after a bitterly-contested referendum in Kurdistan.

0:37:40 > 0:37:44Mrs May is now in Saudi Arabia.

0:37:44 > 0:37:47Will our jobs soon be taken by robots?

0:37:47 > 0:37:50And if they are, what happens to the millions of people

0:37:50 > 0:37:51thrown out of work?

0:37:51 > 0:37:53Those are the big questions behind a major new report

0:37:53 > 0:37:55by the McKinsey Global Institute.

0:37:55 > 0:38:00It finds that as many as 800 million workers could be replaced

0:38:00 > 0:38:03by machines by 2030, including a third of the work force

0:38:03 > 0:38:07in the US and Germany.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Anything that is repetitive is at risk, things

0:38:09 > 0:38:10like administrative work, preparing fast food

0:38:11 > 0:38:15or operating machinery.

0:38:15 > 0:38:18On the other hand, your job is probably safe if it

0:38:18 > 0:38:19involves managing people or applying a particular expertise.

0:38:19 > 0:38:24So where does that leave everyone else in between.

0:38:24 > 0:38:26-- So where does that leave everyone else in between?

0:38:26 > 0:38:29Joining us from San Francisco to explain more is James Manyika.

0:38:29 > 0:38:32He's a senior partner at McKinsey.

0:38:32 > 0:38:37Thank you for joining us. 800 million people could be out of work

0:38:37 > 0:38:41by 2030, what does that do to our societies?Thank you for having me.

0:38:41 > 0:38:47I think the thing to keep in mind is that we have heard job losses due to

0:38:47 > 0:38:51technology for a very long time in different sectors, agriculture,

0:38:51 > 0:38:55manufacturing and so forth. In addition to do jobs that could be

0:38:55 > 0:39:00lost, we are also going to create jobs that will grow. I think the

0:39:00 > 0:39:05balance of it is that in fact we will come out OK. At least that's

0:39:05 > 0:39:10what the scenarios suggest.But not everybody will come out OK, right?

0:39:10 > 0:39:14Well, we will come out OK in the sense that we are going to have

0:39:14 > 0:39:17enough work for everybody. The big question is how we handle the

0:39:17 > 0:39:21transitions between the occupations that will decline and for that will

0:39:21 > 0:39:25go. Those transitions, in mind, the biggest question, because that is on

0:39:25 > 0:39:31to require changing occupations, learning new skills and

0:39:31 > 0:39:35transitioning to new sectors and new activities. That is the big

0:39:35 > 0:39:38question, but we take comfort from the fact that there will be enough

0:39:38 > 0:39:43work for everybody.It will be in the longer term. In the short term,

0:39:43 > 0:39:48this transition you speak of, is it a to this rise in populism that we

0:39:48 > 0:39:53have seen in political terms on both sides of the Atlantic?I think the

0:39:53 > 0:39:58rise in populism is interesting. In our minds, that has largely been in

0:39:58 > 0:40:04an economic sense, driven to the stagnation we have seen an wages cut

0:40:04 > 0:40:07across advanced economies. It is striking when you look at what will

0:40:07 > 0:40:12happen on that front in the last decade in most advanced economies,

0:40:12 > 0:40:17especially the United States, the UK, France and a few others, where

0:40:17 > 0:40:22in, stagnated for a huge proportion of our working households.I'm

0:40:22 > 0:40:28fascinated by this. I remember in the French election, the Socialist

0:40:28 > 0:40:38candidate propose a policy of taxing robots so that every robot that was

0:40:38 > 0:40:42manufactured with pay for the loss of jobs. He was laughed out of court

0:40:42 > 0:40:48for that, but maybe that's the solution?I think it's an

0:40:48 > 0:40:52interesting example you give but there's something substantive behind

0:40:52 > 0:40:59it. If you take into account the income of most advanced economies,

0:40:59 > 0:41:03the share of the national income that goes to wages has been

0:41:03 > 0:41:07declining at the expense of capital, so if we are going to have economic

0:41:07 > 0:41:12output come from a combination of work done by people and capital

0:41:12 > 0:41:16investment in equipment and technology and so forth, to an

0:41:16 > 0:41:20interesting question to ask, how do we reflect that in economic systems?

0:41:20 > 0:41:27Not sure taxing robots, but it does raise an important question.If

0:41:27 > 0:41:30there will be a robot sitting in the seat in a few years' time, maybe I

0:41:30 > 0:41:36can go to the beach early. Will we be structured way that we all work?

0:41:36 > 0:41:39In many ways, we have done that already. If you look at the history

0:41:39 > 0:41:43of the last 100 years. We are working fewer hours on aggregate.

0:41:43 > 0:41:51Really? Yes. For a few individuals like yourself, the hours worked have

0:41:51 > 0:41:55actually gone up, but if you look at the entire workforce, we are working

0:41:55 > 0:42:00fewer hours. One of the key questions here, another has been a

0:42:00 > 0:42:04lot of anxiety about whether they will be enough work, we think there

0:42:04 > 0:42:07will be. The question of transition is important. The reason these

0:42:07 > 0:42:12transitions are important is because companies as well as governments

0:42:12 > 0:42:16have paid a lot less attention to on-the-job training for workers. If

0:42:16 > 0:42:21you look at the trends in the last 20 or 30 years, much we spend as

0:42:21 > 0:42:24government or companies has actually been going down at a time when we

0:42:24 > 0:42:29will need on-the-job training to with those transitions and that is

0:42:29 > 0:42:34one of the key, important things we tried to emphasise.Thank you for

0:42:34 > 0:42:40joining us.

0:42:40 > 0:42:47If I get this right, you would like to earn $19 million a year, it was

0:42:47 > 0:42:50linking yesterday but today it has gone up to 25 million, but you would

0:42:50 > 0:42:55also like to go to the beach more? More than I do at the moment.

0:42:55 > 0:42:59How does the job description run? It does not. I could do with a few more

0:42:59 > 0:43:02robots in this studio, to help us out.

0:43:02 > 0:43:07The interesting thing about this, I was just thinking about it, is the

0:43:07 > 0:43:11advantage has been with the third world countries, because of cheap

0:43:11 > 0:43:16labour, but now, perhaps, it tilts back to the first world countries

0:43:16 > 0:43:21because they spend more on research and development. They can harness

0:43:21 > 0:43:26the talent in first world economies, so maybe this will affect developing

0:43:26 > 0:43:29countries perhaps more than the first world countries.

0:43:29 > 0:43:32That is the discussion that people are having here because there is a

0:43:32 > 0:43:36link in the populism we have seen and this is that robots wanted the

0:43:36 > 0:43:40people's jobs and this is creating a certain amount of fear but actually

0:43:40 > 0:43:47the focus has been on the United States and Donald Trump, but if you

0:43:47 > 0:43:50are an -- a developing country whose advantages due have a cheap labour

0:43:50 > 0:43:54force and then that labour force gets replaced by robots can you

0:43:54 > 0:43:59watch your most important advantage. What will you do with all those

0:43:59 > 0:44:01people out of work in those countries?

0:44:01 > 0:44:02Interesting subject.

0:44:02 > 0:44:05A German court has ruled that a former SS guard at the Auschwitz

0:44:05 > 0:44:08concentration camp must serve a prison sentence despite his age.

0:44:08 > 0:44:10Oskar Groening is now 96.

0:44:10 > 0:44:12He became known as the book keeper of Auschwitz because he counted

0:44:12 > 0:44:16money taken from Jewish prisoners as they arrived at the death camp

0:44:16 > 0:44:17He's been sentenced to four years.

0:44:17 > 0:44:21Flights have resumed from the international airport

0:44:21 > 0:44:23in Bali after three days of disruption caused

0:44:23 > 0:44:27by an eruption of Mount Agung.

0:44:27 > 0:44:30Up to 100,000 people have been ordered to evacuate the area close

0:44:30 > 0:44:33to the volcano and thousands of tourists have been stranded.

0:44:33 > 0:44:33A Saudi Prince has been freed in a billion dollar deal

0:44:44 > 0:44:45This is Beyond 100 Days.

0:44:45 > 0:44:47Still to come, Presidential prose and policy -

0:44:50 > 0:44:53Here in the UK, a man who a judge ruled had probably sexually

0:44:53 > 0:44:56assaulted his baby daughter before she died has been giving evidence

0:44:57 > 0:44:58at an inquest into her death.

0:44:58 > 0:45:0013-month-old Poppi Worthington died after sustaining unexplained

0:45:00 > 0:45:01injuries at her home in 2012.

0:45:01 > 0:45:04A police investigation into her death was botched

0:45:04 > 0:45:07and the verdict at the first inquest quashed by the high court.

0:45:07 > 0:45:11Today Poppi's father, Paul Worthington, who has

0:45:11 > 0:45:13always denied wrongdoing, refused to answer questions 69 times

0:45:13 > 0:45:14at today's second inquest.

0:45:14 > 0:45:24Our correspondent Danny Savage was there.

0:45:25 > 0:45:26Poppi Worthington's life was tragically short.

0:45:26 > 0:45:29The saga surrounding her unexplained death is very long.

0:45:29 > 0:45:3013-month-old Poppi died nearly five years ago.

0:45:30 > 0:45:33She'd been rushed to hospital in Barrow after being found

0:45:33 > 0:45:41unconscious at home early one morning.

0:45:41 > 0:45:44Many months later, a family court judge found that Poppi's father

0:45:44 > 0:45:45had probably sexually assaulted her shortly

0:45:45 > 0:45:53before her death.

0:45:53 > 0:45:55Today, he was bundled through the back door

0:45:55 > 0:45:56of the coroner's court under police guard.

0:45:56 > 0:45:58Paul Worthington denies any wrongdoing and has never been

0:45:58 > 0:46:01charged, but he's been called as a witness at the inquest

0:46:01 > 0:46:02into his daughter's death.

0:46:02 > 0:46:05Screened from the public but not the press, he agreed that Poppi

0:46:05 > 0:46:09was as fit as a fiddle and would wake up just before 6am.

0:46:09 > 0:46:12But when asked about events closer to the day that Poppi died,

0:46:12 > 0:46:17he kept replying, "I refer to my previous statements.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20I rely on the right not to answer under rule 22."

0:46:20 > 0:46:28That rule states no witness at an inquest is obliged

0:46:28 > 0:46:30to answer any question which might incriminate them.

0:46:30 > 0:46:32Last year, Cumbria police was heavily criticised for its handling

0:46:32 > 0:46:34of the investigation into Poppi's death.

0:46:34 > 0:46:37That report detailed a catalogue of mistakes made by detectives,

0:46:37 > 0:46:47saying that crucial evidence was thrown away, witnesses weren't

0:47:06 > 0:47:07You're watching Beyond One Hundred Days.

0:47:07 > 0:47:10Gibraltar and its future once Britain leaves the European Union

0:47:10 > 0:47:12is likely to be another point of tension in the

0:47:12 > 0:47:13Brexit negotiations.

0:47:13 > 0:47:15The rock is a British Overseas Territory located

0:47:15 > 0:47:18at the southern tip of Spain, overlooking the narrow gap

0:47:18 > 0:47:22between Europe and Africa.

0:47:22 > 0:47:24And of huge strategic importance, historically, because it gives

0:47:24 > 0:47:27the Royal Navy control of shipping in and out of the Mediterranean.

0:47:27 > 0:47:2880,000 people cross the Spanish-Gibraltar

0:47:28 > 0:47:30border every week.

0:47:30 > 0:47:32The economy is hugely dependant on the ability

0:47:32 > 0:47:33to travel back and forward.

0:47:33 > 0:47:35Gibraltarians have always voted overwhelmingly to remain British

0:47:35 > 0:47:37but in the Brexit referendum they also voted overwhelmingly

0:47:37 > 0:47:38to remain in the European Union.

0:47:38 > 0:47:41So are they suddenly thinking that dual citizenship might

0:47:41 > 0:47:42be a better way to go?

0:47:42 > 0:47:51A question I put to Gibraltar's chief minister Fabian Picardo.

0:47:51 > 0:47:57Just because we don't have the same view as to our future membership of

0:47:57 > 0:47:59the European Union with the United Kingdom doesn't mean we change our

0:47:59 > 0:48:05minds about that which is an -- which is most dear to us, our

0:48:05 > 0:48:07identity and our sovereignty and membership of the British island of

0:48:07 > 0:48:15nations. You don't believe you might be an

0:48:15 > 0:48:19afterthought or forgotten in this initial part of the negotiation?I

0:48:19 > 0:48:25don't think we are an afterthought. Spain has put Gibraltar at the

0:48:25 > 0:48:35centre.

0:48:41 > 0:48:45One of the things that is important to understand is that we do not have

0:48:45 > 0:48:50a common travel agent -- area with Spain or the European Union and

0:48:50 > 0:48:55Gibraltar as the United Kingdom have had. This is since before the

0:48:55 > 0:48:59European Union was in Paris. The issue is that the right to movement

0:48:59 > 0:49:02in Gibraltar and Spain are entirely different to the issues today in

0:49:02 > 0:49:08Northern Ireland. We have a frontier for goods and we have a frontier for

0:49:08 > 0:49:13immigration purposes, between Gibraltar and the rest of the

0:49:13 > 0:49:16European Union and that is now, whilst we are members of the

0:49:16 > 0:49:20European Union... But that is forward. It is very forward. It the

0:49:20 > 0:49:24issue is one of goodwill and understanding, not so much an issue

0:49:24 > 0:49:32of the laws or whether one inside the area.And efforts being made

0:49:32 > 0:49:35that border -- border much harder to cross?It would have to explain

0:49:35 > 0:49:39themselves to the citizens who would be made to wait to access their

0:49:39 > 0:49:44places of work and to return to their homes in the evenings. I don't

0:49:44 > 0:49:47think in modern politics one wants to be the politician explaining to a

0:49:47 > 0:49:53citizen why you are putting up a barrier which is unnecessary for

0:49:53 > 0:50:09security or other reasons and simply

0:50:09 > 0:50:15creating a hand and the movement. You seem trusting. .

0:50:39 > 0:50:43Put it this way. If that were not to be the case it would be the first

0:50:43 > 0:50:52time in the history of Anglo Spanish relations. I am an eternal optimist

0:50:52 > 0:50:56and I hope every Gibraltarian will be proved wrong and Spain will not

0:50:56 > 0:51:04try and use this moment to try and advance its sovereignty claim. If

0:51:04 > 0:51:07they do Gibraltar knows its future is with the UK and our future

0:51:07 > 0:51:11prosperity is in continuing the single market between Gibraltar and

0:51:11 > 0:51:14the UK. The British government is committed to maintaining and

0:51:14 > 0:51:18enhancing our access to that market. We will do very well indeed in the

0:51:18 > 0:51:22future both in the context of that relationship with the UK and in the

0:51:22 > 0:51:25context of the relationship the UK will have with other trading nations

0:51:25 > 0:51:39around the world.

0:51:39 > 0:51:39will have with other trading nations around the world. I have assurances

0:51:39 > 0:51:43that they will not do the deal was the European Union FSB -- spend the

0:51:43 > 0:51:50rest to exclude Gibraltar from it.

0:51:51 > 0:51:56you very much indeed.

0:51:56 > 0:52:00A look ahead to tomorrow's show.

0:52:00 > 0:52:02The Irish border in a post-Brexit Britain.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05We report from either side of the frontier as part of a special

0:52:05 > 0:52:06day of coverage on the BBC.

0:52:06 > 0:52:13Get in touch with us using the hashtag, #Beyond100Days.

0:52:13 > 0:52:16Now here in Washington, DC, speech writers are never at a loss

0:52:16 > 0:52:19for work but only a few make it to the White House.

0:52:19 > 0:52:22David Litt is part of that elite club and for nearly five years

0:52:22 > 0:52:25he helped write the words for President Obama on everything

0:52:25 > 0:52:26from health care to climate change.

0:52:26 > 0:52:29His specialty though was comedy and if you think writing

0:52:29 > 0:52:31about policy is hard, just try getting laughs out of both

0:52:31 > 0:52:33Democrats and Republicans.

0:52:33 > 0:52:36Mr Litt is now out with a new memoir and we caught up with him

0:52:36 > 0:52:37to discuss his experience.

0:52:41 > 0:52:46I remember the first day I watched through the states -- negates the

0:52:46 > 0:52:50White House, thinking, wait a second, they are actually going to

0:52:50 > 0:52:56let me in? I was a speech writer for President Obama from 2011 to 2016, I

0:52:56 > 0:53:04and offer -- I am an offer of a new book on the those years. At had done

0:53:04 > 0:53:08some improv comedy in college, so it was nice to have a niche in 2012,

0:53:08 > 0:53:13becoming more or less the token in-house funny person for the White

0:53:13 > 0:53:19House.Welcome to the White House correspondents dinner, the night

0:53:19 > 0:53:26when Washington celebrate itself. When these joke speeches came up, I

0:53:26 > 0:53:30got to punch above my weight class a little bit and take responsibility

0:53:30 > 0:53:34of a speech that otherwise might not have gotten if it was more serious.

0:53:34 > 0:53:38My name is Barack Obama, my mother was born in Kansas, my father was

0:53:38 > 0:53:47born in Kenya and I was born, of course, in Hawaii.I can remember

0:53:47 > 0:53:51with each of those jokes what I was feeling when the president read

0:53:51 > 0:53:55them. You live or die in that moment. If you like to joke that he

0:53:55 > 0:54:00would add a little something, a to waive or ad-lib outline, make it his

0:54:00 > 0:54:05own.I know Republicans are still sorting out what happened in 2012,

0:54:05 > 0:54:08but one thing the likely on is the need to do a better job reaching out

0:54:08 > 0:54:14to minorities. And, like, can be self-centred but I can think of one

0:54:14 > 0:54:26minority they could start with. Hello?In the Obama administration,

0:54:26 > 0:54:29Schumer was a chance for us to tell a little bit of truth about

0:54:29 > 0:54:33Washington that we wouldn't have gotten the tail otherwise. The most

0:54:33 > 0:54:38important thing that a politician can do when they tell jokes is to be

0:54:38 > 0:54:42self-deprecating. Especially in a democracy, to recognise that they

0:54:42 > 0:54:45are extraordinarily powerful, but they are human beings, they make

0:54:45 > 0:54:50mistakes and they have faults.Some people still say I am arrogant and

0:54:50 > 0:54:59aloof, condescending. Some people are so dumb. No wonder I don't read

0:54:59 > 0:55:03with them.You would sure this thing that started as a thought in your

0:55:03 > 0:55:07head become the President's words and that was just a magical

0:55:07 > 0:55:19transformation. It still boggles my mind reading -- writing about it.

0:55:19 > 0:55:26I need a set -- I need a scriptwriter.

0:55:26 > 0:55:30It's worth remembering that in 2011 as one of those correspondence

0:55:30 > 0:55:35dinners, Barack Obama made fun of Donald Trump and everybody thinks

0:55:35 > 0:55:38that it is when he made fun of Donald Trump that he decided he

0:55:38 > 0:55:41would run for the presidency and when.

0:55:41 > 0:55:46She had the last laugh. So be careful who you joke about

0:55:46 > 0:55:49when you are president of the United States, because you could change the

0:55:49 > 0:55:50world.

0:55:50 > 0:55:52Coming up next on BBC World News, Ros Atkins

0:55:52 > 0:55:55is here with Outside Source and for viewers in the UK,

0:55:55 > 0:55:57we'll have the latest headlines from Julian Worricker.

0:55:57 > 0:55:59For now from Katty Kay in Washington and me,
