0:00:06 > 0:00:07You're watching Beyond 100 Days.

0:00:07 > 0:00:10It's been an extraordinary few days in the Trump

0:00:10 > 0:00:13administration with the President defending his mental state.

0:00:13 > 0:00:17And the author of a tell all book about the White House going on TV

0:00:17 > 0:00:21to defend his reporting.

0:00:21 > 0:00:24Donald Trump says he's a genius and very stable -

0:00:24 > 0:00:27but as the book Fire and Fury flies around the world, his unusual

0:00:27 > 0:00:32comments raise eyebrows.

0:00:32 > 0:00:34Mr Trump reasserts his innocence on the question

0:00:34 > 0:00:36of collusion with Russia - but is the FBI investigation now

0:00:37 > 0:00:39interested in interviewing him?

0:00:39 > 0:00:42Also on the programme...

0:00:42 > 0:00:45The not-so-Golden Globes as stars of stage and screen wear black

0:00:45 > 0:00:47to show solidarity with victims of the Hollywood sexual

0:00:47 > 0:00:50harassment scandal.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52The burning oil tanker off the Chinese coast -

0:00:52 > 0:00:54rescuers are trying to reach the ship, but are beaten

0:00:54 > 0:00:57back by toxic fumes.

0:00:57 > 0:01:03Get in touch with us using the hashtag Beyond 100 Days.

0:01:10 > 0:01:14Hello - I'm Katty Kay in Washington and Christian Fraser is in London.

0:01:14 > 0:01:16It is the Monday after a particularly tumultuous weekend

0:01:16 > 0:01:18in the Trump administration.

0:01:18 > 0:01:21The journalist whose book prompted the President to insist he is really

0:01:21 > 0:01:24smart and a very stable genius has defended his reporting on TV.

0:01:24 > 0:01:27Michael Wolff said Mr Trump may not have realised their conversations

0:01:27 > 0:01:31were going to be included in the book.

0:01:31 > 0:01:32Mr Trump has received an apology

0:01:32 > 0:01:35from his former aide Steve Bannon, now known by the President

0:01:35 > 0:01:38as "sloppy Steve."

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Mr Bannon says he regrets his remarks to Mr Wolff but he doesn't

0:01:41 > 0:01:51deny their accuracy.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56I have spent about three hours talking to the president over the

0:01:56 > 0:02:01course of the campaign, the transition, and in the White House.

0:02:01 > 0:02:06But the important point I want to make is that this book is not about

0:02:06 > 0:02:11my impression of the president. I came into this with no agenda, I

0:02:11 > 0:02:16continued to have no political... Fair enough, but there is a running

0:02:16 > 0:02:16narrative.

0:02:16 > 0:02:19Fair enough, but there is a running narrative. As you say, you were a

0:02:19 > 0:02:22semipermanent fly on the wall in the White House, but it also reads like

0:02:22 > 0:02:26your main source is Steve Bannon. Is that correct?It would be not

0:02:26 > 0:02:27correct.

0:02:27 > 0:02:29Meanwhile, there are reports in NBC News that

0:02:29 > 0:02:31Special Counsel Bob Mueller is having discussions about possibly

0:02:31 > 0:02:33interviewing the President himself for the Russia investigation.

0:02:33 > 0:02:42Let's get more on all this from our North America Editor Jon Sopel.

0:02:42 > 0:02:46Let me start with that Russia investigation. I guess it would not

0:02:46 > 0:02:49be surprising that Bob Mueller might be interested in interviewing the

0:02:49 > 0:02:54president, would it?No, not surprising, though Donald Trump has

0:02:54 > 0:02:58always insisted as far as he understands, he himself is not under

0:02:58 > 0:03:03investigation. If you are conducting an investigation into what happened

0:03:03 > 0:03:08in the job campaign, it would make sense that at some point it would

0:03:08 > 0:03:14make sense you would speak to the person on the top of the campaign.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18The interesting question becomes, what form does that interview take?

0:03:18 > 0:03:22Is it a sit down face-to-face interview with Robert Mueller and

0:03:22 > 0:03:26others of his investigation team from the special counsel 's office.

0:03:26 > 0:03:32Is it a list of questions that are given to the president for his legal

0:03:32 > 0:03:36team to pore over the answers? I imagine a bit of back and forwards

0:03:36 > 0:03:44about that. I think Donald Trump was hoping this investigation would be

0:03:44 > 0:03:53over by now, it most certainly isn't.I have run out of ways to see

0:03:53 > 0:03:56the word, unusual, unprecedented, not normal. Maybe you have better

0:03:56 > 0:04:00British linguistic skills than I do, but I would love to get your

0:04:00 > 0:04:04reaction to the tweets...That's because you're not a really stable

0:04:04 > 0:04:13genius!Or even, like, really smart. Like, really smart. It was a

0:04:13 > 0:04:17Saturday morning to behold. Like you, catty, I could not quite

0:04:17 > 0:04:20believe the series of tweets that the president put out. Whether they

0:04:20 > 0:04:28are effective or not is to be seen over the long term. Two things have

0:04:28 > 0:04:33happened over the weekend that are potentially quite important. The

0:04:33 > 0:04:36President's mental health has become a legitimate subject of concern,

0:04:36 > 0:04:40given the book and the fact the president himself has responded to

0:04:40 > 0:04:47the book. On Friday afternoon, the president flew to camp David.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50Journalists were waiting at the White House for him to get on board

0:04:50 > 0:04:54Marine one, shouting a pile of questions and it was clear strategy,

0:04:54 > 0:04:58do not address the book, lets get away from the book. He gets to

0:04:58 > 0:05:05merriment, and immediately he tweets about the book in theory, then about

0:05:05 > 0:05:09his own mental state. -- he gets to Maryland. People are going to start

0:05:09 > 0:05:13asking what happened, how is your mental health? The sorts of issues

0:05:13 > 0:05:17are now on the agenda as opposed to being whispered about, which they

0:05:17 > 0:05:22have been for the past year.What about Steve Bannon, John? Is he

0:05:22 > 0:05:31still relevant?Steve Bannon has a start very much in the wane. I

0:05:31 > 0:05:35thought this was the statement of a man under serious pressure, that he

0:05:35 > 0:05:41felt the kicks and bruises and punches that he has received since

0:05:41 > 0:05:45cooperating with Michael Wolff's book and giving those ill-advised

0:05:45 > 0:05:51quotes, because it is absolutely falling foul of the Tron family. Now

0:05:51 > 0:05:57he has expressed regret, I regret my delay in responding to the

0:05:57 > 0:05:59inaccurate reporting regarding Don Junior. If you look at the

0:05:59 > 0:06:04reporting, it looks pretty accurate. He has not withdrawn the statement

0:06:04 > 0:06:09about a banker that she is as dumb as a brick. -- about Ivanka Trump.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13Take that in combination with what happened in the Alabama Senate seat

0:06:13 > 0:06:17that Steve Bannon's preferred candidate Roy Moore went down in

0:06:17 > 0:06:22flames, and you are seeing a job that has been done on Steve Bannon.

0:06:22 > 0:06:28He is eclipsed, it doesn't mean he can't come back, there is a history

0:06:28 > 0:06:33of Donald Trump being able to bring people back, but at the moment you

0:06:33 > 0:06:39would pick up shares in Steve Bannon for a song.Sell, sell, sell!

0:06:39 > 0:06:40For more on the Republican agenda and diversions

0:06:40 > 0:06:44we are joined now by Ron Bonjean, who formerly served as a top press

0:06:44 > 0:06:47secretary on Capitol Hill and is now a fellow at Georgetown's Institute

0:06:47 > 0:06:52of Politics and Public Service.

0:06:52 > 0:06:56I looked at the tweets the president sent out this weekend, there were

0:06:56 > 0:07:00ten. Only two related to how he was going to make things better for the

0:07:00 > 0:07:06Americans. Eight were about him and about the book and about what he has

0:07:06 > 0:07:13done, the genius he is. Is that clouding your agenda.When you said

0:07:13 > 0:07:21ten, I thought there would be a lot more! The tweets that he is sending

0:07:21 > 0:07:28out are going directly to his base, they see this as mental popcorn,

0:07:28 > 0:07:31they love for him to speak off message. In terms of the Republican

0:07:31 > 0:07:38agenda, we have had tax bill pushed into law, it largely has not been

0:07:38 > 0:07:41sold to the American people because of his many things getting in the

0:07:41 > 0:07:47way including the book. I would encourage my Republican colleagues

0:07:47 > 0:07:50to start promoting the good things that are happening with this tax

0:07:50 > 0:07:55reform programme across the country. House and Senate leaders met with a

0:07:55 > 0:07:59president this week and go over their agenda in moving forward,

0:07:59 > 0:08:01clearly there is a lot of top shelf issues they have two address as

0:08:01 > 0:08:06well.There is clearly a lock that is good news, the president and the

0:08:06 > 0:08:09White House could be talking about, like the stock market, going to

0:08:09 > 0:08:12records at the end of last week. Unemployment rate is low, they had

0:08:12 > 0:08:16just passed this tax agenda. But to what extent does the president, when

0:08:16 > 0:08:21he's reaching out to his base these tweets on suck all the oxygen away

0:08:21 > 0:08:27from that storyline?Clearly it has gotten away from the storyline, that

0:08:27 > 0:08:30Republicans want to push. At the same time, the president felt it

0:08:30 > 0:08:37necessary to take on this book head-on, and to quote bracket or

0:08:37 > 0:08:41surrounded with his surrogates and put it to bed. A lot of people have

0:08:41 > 0:08:44questions about the author Michael Wolff and his journalistic

0:08:44 > 0:08:47tendencies on whether or not what he was writing was accurate, clearly

0:08:47 > 0:08:50there are some passages in the book that seem a little more true than

0:08:50 > 0:08:54others. When you look at the ones that definitely seem to be false,

0:08:54 > 0:08:59that puts a pale on the whole thing. He has addressed it, now it's time

0:08:59 > 0:09:06to move on, that's old news. We need to focus this week on the task

0:09:06 > 0:09:11ahead.In November, the midterms. All the polling and recently results

0:09:11 > 0:09:15suggest you do face some headwinds. What something the Republican party

0:09:15 > 0:09:19could do this year to improve its chances of doing well in the

0:09:19 > 0:09:23mid-term elections and holding on to the house?They need to talk about

0:09:23 > 0:09:26but has happened in this country over the past year, the record they

0:09:26 > 0:09:33are establishing, the fact there is low unemployment, lots of jobs now

0:09:33 > 0:09:38being created that the state of well-being in retail sales numbers

0:09:38 > 0:09:42are higher, the fact they are taking an Isis successfully, all these

0:09:42 > 0:09:47things show a good state of the country. They will have a lot of

0:09:47 > 0:09:54opportunities to do that this year. We also have tax day coming up April

0:09:54 > 0:09:5715, when people realise they are paying less in taxes that will go a

0:09:57 > 0:10:02long way.Thanks for coming in, happy New Year.When we talk about

0:10:02 > 0:10:08Steve Bannon, he is not the kind of person that works things back. --

0:10:08 > 0:10:12walks things back. But he has had to, he might lose critical funding

0:10:12 > 0:10:15for Breitbart, Houston ostracised, is that a warning of the Power

0:10:15 > 0:10:19Donald Trump has two others within the administration? -- he has been

0:10:19 > 0:10:24ostracised.It's interesting he has not denied the accuracy of what he

0:10:24 > 0:10:28said, he says some of it is out of context but he is not rowed back his

0:10:28 > 0:10:33reported remarks in this book, Fire And Fury. It is unusual for the

0:10:33 > 0:10:36president to have walked away from a former aid with the degree to which

0:10:36 > 0:10:40she has. There has been a real hatchet job done on Steve Bannon

0:10:40 > 0:10:45over the course of the last 24 hours, by the president himself and

0:10:45 > 0:10:48his other advisers, Stephen Mellor who gave an extraordinary interview

0:10:48 > 0:10:52on American television this weekend, really saying he was disgusted by

0:10:52 > 0:10:55what Steve Bannon said. Looking back, all the people who left the

0:10:55 > 0:11:05administration, some under a cloud, the mooch left, John Spicer left,

0:11:05 > 0:11:08and Michael Flynn the former national Security adviser who left,

0:11:08 > 0:11:13you could argue, but a much bigger cloud over him than Steve Bannon.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15After those people left, the president tended to say they were

0:11:15 > 0:11:20good people. He does not ditch the people he has employed. He wants to

0:11:20 > 0:11:24stand by his record of employing the very best people, so it is

0:11:24 > 0:11:27remarkable to see the degree to which the White House has turned its

0:11:27 > 0:11:32ammunition Steve Bannon and to what Steve Bannon who hates the idea of

0:11:32 > 0:11:35apology, saying that as a sign of political weakness, rolling back his

0:11:35 > 0:11:40position as he has done over the last day.You would think at the

0:11:40 > 0:11:43moment it in some way quells the wall within the Republican Party. We

0:11:43 > 0:11:48shall see. -- the war within.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51The red carpet of the 75th Golden Globes was dominated last

0:11:51 > 0:11:52night by one colour - black.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54The awards season kicked off with a loud political statement

0:11:54 > 0:11:55on sexual harassment.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Stars, men and women, wore black in solidarity with the victims.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01And who knows maybe we saw the launch of a political career.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03Yes, Oprah Winfrey stole the show with an impassioned

0:12:03 > 0:12:05speech on press freedom, the rights of women to equality

0:12:06 > 0:12:07and a promise of better times ahead.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Reports from multiple sources in the US say

0:12:09 > 0:12:12she is actively considering a run for the Presidency in 2020.

0:12:12 > 0:12:18Here's James Cook with more on LA's glittering night.

0:12:18 > 0:12:21The bright lights of Hollywood are shining into dark corners, exposing

0:12:21 > 0:12:25shameful secrets.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27At the Golden Globes, they turned the red carpet

0:12:27 > 0:12:32black to demonstrate it determination to force change.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35There is no way I am ever going to be in a

0:12:35 > 0:12:42room and be treated like people have been treated ever again, and not

0:12:42 > 0:12:43stand up and say I don't agree.

0:12:43 > 0:12:47The whole reason that was able to take place, like any abuse of

0:12:47 > 0:12:48power, is silence.

0:12:48 > 0:12:52Meryl Streep was one of a number of actresses who

0:12:52 > 0:12:55arrived with an activist as her guest.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57We are drawing a thick black line between

0:12:57 > 0:13:00yesterday and tomorrow, the way things used to be done, the way

0:13:00 > 0:13:03business used to be done.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05It is important in our business and it is

0:13:05 > 0:13:10important in any business that people in power don't get to bully

0:13:10 > 0:13:12people and especially not bully them in a sexual way

0:13:12 > 0:13:14and get away with it.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Do you think the industry is changing?

0:13:16 > 0:13:19Yes, it will have to.

0:13:19 > 0:13:20There is no way it cannot.

0:13:20 > 0:13:25Hurrah!

0:13:25 > 0:13:27From the moment the ceremony began, the

0:13:27 > 0:13:28tone was set.

0:13:28 > 0:13:29Good evening ladies and remaining gentlemen.

0:13:29 > 0:13:32And here are the all-male nominees.

0:13:32 > 0:13:34Natalie Portman highlighted the failure of

0:13:34 > 0:13:40the Golden Globes to recognise female directors.

0:13:40 > 0:13:45And star after star gave voice to a movement now

0:13:45 > 0:13:46known as Time's Up.

0:13:46 > 0:13:48Oprah Winfrey led the charge.

0:13:48 > 0:13:55For too long women have not been heard and believed if

0:13:55 > 0:13:58they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men.

0:13:58 > 0:14:05But their time is up.

0:14:05 > 0:14:07The speech was so powerful, that it fuelled immediate

0:14:07 > 0:14:08speculation of a run for president.

0:14:08 > 0:14:10The time is up.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13This all began with the downfall of the mogul who abused

0:14:13 > 0:14:15his power.

0:14:15 > 0:14:17The spotlight is now on Harvey Weinstein's accusers,

0:14:17 > 0:14:22standing side by side.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24We have an opportunity to lead nationally and

0:14:24 > 0:14:28internationally so everyone everywhere can work safely, earned

0:14:28 > 0:14:31the same money for the same work, and we can finally put sexual

0:14:31 > 0:14:35harassment in the way past where it should have been a long time ago.

0:14:35 > 0:14:36Is it happening?

0:14:36 > 0:14:40It is happening.

0:14:40 > 0:14:44Four months ago you could not have dreamed of a night like this.

0:14:44 > 0:14:46Time and again on the red carpet we have

0:14:46 > 0:14:50heard the same word, and that word is change.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53The stars walking down here are insisting that this is not just

0:14:53 > 0:15:03a moment, this is a process which they say will continue.

0:15:04 > 0:15:07Oprah Winfrey made a point of saying the movement launched by Hollywood

0:15:07 > 0:15:10stars was also a movement for women in other jobs - women

0:15:10 > 0:15:12who work in restaurants and hospitals and engineering.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14So is this movement spreading to other industries

0:15:14 > 0:15:15and indeed other countries?

0:15:15 > 0:15:18And joining us now from New York is Zeinab Salbi, founder of women

0:15:18 > 0:15:26for women international.

0:15:26 > 0:15:30Do you see happening what Oprah Winfrey says must happen, that

0:15:30 > 0:15:33waitresses and nurses and people working in regular office buildings

0:15:33 > 0:15:42are starting to feel the impact of the need to movement?Absolutely.--

0:15:42 > 0:15:47the me too movement. Are they feeling it is getting

0:15:47 > 0:15:54better because of the proper citation? -- the publicity?It is at

0:15:54 > 0:15:58the beginning, now we are talking about race and class issues, not

0:15:58 > 0:16:01only because Oprah's speech yesterday which brilliant, but

0:16:01 > 0:16:07because of her fund just created by several actresses including Natalie

0:16:07 > 0:16:11Portman about defending women's rights across all lines, class and

0:16:11 > 0:16:15race in all these things, including waitresses and staff members at

0:16:15 > 0:16:19hotels and all of these things. Now the people who talked about it are

0:16:19 > 0:16:23starting to actually be more inclusive of a larger endemic that

0:16:23 > 0:16:28it is.You were the founder of an organisation that helps women's

0:16:28 > 0:16:39rights around the world, what is the impact of this scandal is having in

0:16:39 > 0:16:43other areas of the world, Asia, Latin America? How do women then

0:16:43 > 0:16:47look at what is happening here in the US?I think there are two levels

0:16:47 > 0:16:53to what's happening, on the one hand everyone is looking at America and

0:16:53 > 0:16:57is reflecting, they are curious, in the Middle East they were saying, we

0:16:57 > 0:17:00don't understand, a lot of the men saying we don't understand, we want

0:17:00 > 0:17:04to know what the women are saying. I think it's triggering a lot of men

0:17:04 > 0:17:09in other countries to ask what is this rage about sexual harassment,

0:17:09 > 0:17:13and making them reflect on themselves. A lot of women are

0:17:13 > 0:17:16different, if you are a woman's rights activists from another

0:17:16 > 0:17:19country would say, that's great, it's about time American women are

0:17:19 > 0:17:24speaking up about their own abuse, it's not only about quote unquote

0:17:24 > 0:17:30third World women. It depends on all of it, I think it is creating a

0:17:30 > 0:17:37union, a unity for all women. I hope this unity goes across, as I said,

0:17:37 > 0:17:42class, race, nationality, culture, all these things. Women's rights is

0:17:42 > 0:17:45a global issue. It's not a cultural issue and it has happened over

0:17:45 > 0:17:51centuries right now. It's a moment in history that I think I hope all

0:17:51 > 0:17:55over the world will have a ripple effect. It's a moment in history in

0:17:55 > 0:17:59America, for sure.Is it such a moment that could propel Oprah

0:17:59 > 0:18:06Winfrey to the White House?Well, she is the best. But I think that's

0:18:06 > 0:18:09the wrong discussion right now. It's obviously her decision whether she

0:18:09 > 0:18:16runs or not. The discussion for me right now is that Oprah opened up

0:18:16 > 0:18:19the door for us to take this discussion further. How do we send

0:18:19 > 0:18:22the message we want to send two girls and the younger generation?

0:18:22 > 0:18:28How do we look at our history and how have we tolerated this, been

0:18:28 > 0:18:31complacent in allowing sexual abuse to happen to other women, that may

0:18:31 > 0:18:37have been from underprivileged areas or underprivileged races, classes,

0:18:37 > 0:18:41and we all looked in the other direction about it. She is actually

0:18:41 > 0:18:44right now opening the door for another level of discussion beyond

0:18:44 > 0:18:47what happened in the last three months. If it happened in the last

0:18:47 > 0:18:51three months, it's about the rich and famous, now she has opened the

0:18:51 > 0:18:55gate for another level of discussion, a deeper one where we

0:18:55 > 0:18:59all reflect on our realities. Whether she runs for president or

0:18:59 > 0:19:02not, I personally would love to see that but that's ultimately her

0:19:02 > 0:19:05decision and it's not the right moment to ask that, it is the right

0:19:05 > 0:19:08moment to ask what she's trying to get us to do and how we speak our

0:19:08 > 0:19:11truth and where are the areas where we have been silenced and where do

0:19:11 > 0:19:18we need to break that silence right now.It is an amazing speech. What I

0:19:18 > 0:19:21thought was, there is an intersection here between civil

0:19:21 > 0:19:24rights which she has played a prominent role in and also women's

0:19:24 > 0:19:27rights, she brings the two together. She talks about growing up in

0:19:27 > 0:19:31Milwaukee. As you said, she is an example to young girls, she talks

0:19:31 > 0:19:35about what it was like the hair in the 60s watching Sidney Poitier take

0:19:35 > 0:19:41to the stage. She could have the same affect on young girls today.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45She is a woman who has been abused herself, and had broken her silence

0:19:45 > 0:19:51and spoke about her views in times when no one spoke about it,

0:19:51 > 0:19:54definitely not famous TV personalities like herself. She was

0:19:54 > 0:20:01really a pioneer in every aspect, when I had the privilege of

0:20:01 > 0:20:04interviewing Oprah, she said when her lawyers knew about Herbie is

0:20:04 > 0:20:10they first told her, do not say anything about it. It took a lot of

0:20:10 > 0:20:14courage for her to break her own silence. -- when her lawyers knew

0:20:14 > 0:20:21about her abuse. She is not speaking only intellectually about the

0:20:21 > 0:20:24issues, and she's speaking from an experience of not only fitting that

0:20:24 > 0:20:27violence but an experience of what it takes, the risks you take, the

0:20:27 > 0:20:32fear you have, the shame, all feelings when you actually break

0:20:32 > 0:20:37your silence and start speaking up. She is paving the way and telling us

0:20:37 > 0:20:42actually, this is not... That moment of rage, lots of people are afraid

0:20:42 > 0:20:46of this moment of anger because all they see is women's anger. She is

0:20:46 > 0:20:50telling us, we have to look at it historically, and emotionally. We

0:20:50 > 0:20:55have to look at it with grace and passion. How to move forward, so our

0:20:55 > 0:20:58younger generations will not have to go through it, whether they are

0:20:58 > 0:21:06girls or boys.We have to leave it there, thank you very much. Oprah

0:21:06 > 0:21:11Winfrey has very high approval ratings in the US amongst Democrats

0:21:11 > 0:21:16and Republicans but a poll in March last year suggests only one in five

0:21:16 > 0:21:20Americans think she should throw her hat into the ring. I was speaking to

0:21:20 > 0:21:22a senior Democratic women here today and she was saying, is this the

0:21:22 > 0:21:30right than the Berra? -- is this the right standard-bearer? Is America

0:21:30 > 0:21:35really looking to go from one media starting another, neither with

0:21:35 > 0:21:38experience, she has no experience in political office, is that really the

0:21:38 > 0:21:42best person for the Democrats to put forward at the moment?I think

0:21:42 > 0:21:47Donald Trump once said he wanted her as his vice president, didn't he?He

0:21:47 > 0:21:50has been very common entry about her, let's see if she runs against

0:21:50 > 0:21:51him. --

0:21:53 > 0:21:56There are fears of an environmental disaster in the East China Sea,

0:21:56 > 0:21:59as a tanker continues to leak oil, two days after it hit a cargo ship.

0:21:59 > 0:22:01Chinese officials say the vessel is in danger

0:22:01 > 0:22:02of exploding and sinking.

0:22:02 > 0:22:05One body has been recovered but 31 crew members remain missing

0:22:05 > 0:22:07since the incident happened 257 kilometres off

0:22:07 > 0:22:08the coast of Shanghai.

0:22:08 > 0:22:10The Sanchi had left port in the persian gulf,

0:22:10 > 0:22:11bringing 136 thousand tonnes of oil east.

0:22:11 > 0:22:15It had passed through the malacca straits and was heading up the east

0:22:15 > 0:22:17china sea to south korea when the collision happened.

0:22:17 > 0:22:24Robin Brant reports.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26and Saturday nights, the fire has burned.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Dark black smoke feeding off the cargo, of almost a million

0:22:28 > 0:22:38barrels of oil inside the Sanchi.

0:22:38 > 0:22:43The intense heat and threat of an explosion threatens the operation.

0:22:43 > 0:22:50It's not clear yet at this stage how the ships collided. All on board

0:22:50 > 0:22:55were rescued, despite damage at the bowl. Authorities now fear the oil

0:22:55 > 0:23:02tanker could explode and sink.The Chinese government takes accidents

0:23:02 > 0:23:05like these very seriously and has already dispatched many search and

0:23:05 > 0:23:11rescue teams to the scene. Even though from what we understand, the

0:23:11 > 0:23:15weather conditions are extremely unfavourable to the rescue work. But

0:23:15 > 0:23:21China is putting in maximum efforts. Shanghai's ports on the busiest in

0:23:21 > 0:23:26the world, and the coastal waters to the east of the city are vast. But

0:23:26 > 0:23:31in the last decade, China has had a reported collisions similar to this

0:23:31 > 0:23:35involving foreign ships. The Chinese authorities are leading the search

0:23:35 > 0:23:39and rescue effort but there is help from South Korea and the United

0:23:39 > 0:23:44States. The focus is increasingly turning to the environmental threat

0:23:44 > 0:23:48to the ocean, about 200 miles off the coast of the city in that

0:23:48 > 0:23:53direction. With a volume of oil on board, this has the potential to be

0:23:53 > 0:23:58the worst spill of its kind since 1991.If it sinks, then we are

0:23:58 > 0:24:03looking at an impact of seepage from this very light crude into the ocean

0:24:03 > 0:24:08which could last many months. That would mean exclusion zones in terms

0:24:08 > 0:24:15of fishing around the area, and an impact on the local flora and fauna.

0:24:15 > 0:24:18The last time a tanker lost oil on this scale was the prestige of the

0:24:18 > 0:24:25coast of Spain in 2002. This time it's not the thick black crude oil

0:24:25 > 0:24:31that is causing such problems off the coast of China. This vessel is

0:24:31 > 0:24:33carrying condensate, a refined form of oil that is far less dense but

0:24:33 > 0:24:40more explosive. Described as a floating bomb, the cargo can be

0:24:40 > 0:24:43odourless and colourless, which means the job of trying to see the

0:24:43 > 0:24:54extent of the spill and trying to contain it is far more difficult.

0:24:54 > 0:24:57The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - Prince William and Catherine have

0:24:57 > 0:24:59released two new photographs of Princess Charlotte on her first

0:24:59 > 0:25:00day at nursery school.

0:25:00 > 0:25:03The photos were taken by Catherine at Kensington Palace this morning -

0:25:03 > 0:25:05shortly before two-year-old Charlotte left for her first day

0:25:05 > 0:25:11at the Willcocks Nursery School in West London.

0:25:11 > 0:25:15I don't know about you, Christian, but when my children were two years

0:25:15 > 0:25:18old and went off to their first day of nursery school they look a

0:25:18 > 0:25:23complete mess, hair all over the place. How do you get children

0:25:23 > 0:25:27looking perfect?I don't know, I just had to buy new jumper for my

0:25:27 > 0:25:31son because he had toothpaste all the way down the front.Exactly, and

0:25:31 > 0:25:36you were frazzled, right?Maybe only one of those gods, the best thing to

0:25:36 > 0:25:40hide the stains! -- one of those scarves.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42This is Beyond 100 Days from the BBC.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Coming up for viewers on the BBC News Channel and BBC World News -

0:25:45 > 0:25:48we find out why women are twice as likely as men to die

0:25:48 > 0:25:50after suffering the most serious kind of heart attack.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53And the BBC's China Editor Carrie Gracie quits her role

0:25:53 > 0:25:55in a dispute over equal pay - she's accusing the corporation

0:25:55 > 0:25:56of breaking the law.

0:25:56 > 0:26:01That's still to come.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12The great north-south weather divide was certainly in operation today and

0:26:12 > 0:26:17in evidence on the satellite imagery.All this as the great, low

0:26:17 > 0:26:21cloud keeps things distinctly chilly across the South. Northern Ireland

0:26:21 > 0:26:26is clear, snow on the Scottish mountains. Widespread frost

0:26:26 > 0:26:29developing, a little less extensive through the night. South easterly

0:26:29 > 0:26:36winds taking the club for the North. Still if you pockets of frost,

0:26:36 > 0:26:41isolated frost in other parts of western Scotland, north-west England

0:26:41 > 0:26:45and Wales. Most frost free into a chilly but grey start to Tuesday.

0:26:45 > 0:26:53Much of Scotland and northern England cloudy, maybe the odd snow

0:26:53 > 0:26:57grain, frozen drizzle, very misty over the hills. With the

0:26:57 > 0:26:59south-easterly winds will be sheltered from low cloud by the

0:26:59 > 0:27:03mountains, particularly the Highlands, also the likes of

0:27:03 > 0:27:08Cumbrian fells, Lake District and into north-west Wales and Anglesey.

0:27:08 > 0:27:11Sunny spells here. When you get the sunshine, the Breeze bouncing over

0:27:11 > 0:27:15the hills, it could bring down warmer air. Maybe even ten or 11

0:27:15 > 0:27:19degrees in sunspots, for most another cool day. Maybe not as

0:27:19 > 0:27:25chilly as today, Devon, Cornwall and Hamburg shares some rain in the

0:27:25 > 0:27:31afternoon. A right to moving east and north through Tuesday night and

0:27:31 > 0:27:39Wednesday morning. -- dramatically moving. Some bossed around as well,

0:27:39 > 0:27:42after rains on icy conditions potentially into Tuesday morning. A

0:27:42 > 0:27:47bright start to Wednesday. Clearing away the low cloud. Much more

0:27:47 > 0:27:58sunshine. Only one or two isolated showers. Could see some rain linger

0:27:58 > 0:28:02throughout the east, but for many a brighter day, particularly in the

0:28:02 > 0:28:06West. Temperatures not too bad for the time of year. Through Wednesday

0:28:06 > 0:28:10and Thursday, low pressure with some rain into France. Leaves us in an

0:28:10 > 0:28:14area of high pressure but light wind. Nothing much going on. That

0:28:14 > 0:28:17will lead to some overnight frost and fog patches for the second half

0:28:17 > 0:28:21of the week. Still some brightness on Thursday, particularly north and

0:28:21 > 0:28:27west. A bit grey for some coastal counties of the east, and Sunny

0:28:27 > 0:28:29spells into Friday as well.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09This is Beyond 100 Days, with me Katty Kay in Washington -

0:30:09 > 0:30:10Christian Fraser's in London.

0:30:10 > 0:30:11Our top stories...

0:30:11 > 0:30:14The fallout over the book Fire and Fury continues to spread.

0:30:14 > 0:30:16Mr Trump insists he's a stable genius while former aide

0:30:16 > 0:30:19Steve Bannon says he regrets his remarks.

0:30:19 > 0:30:21Rescue workers trying to reach a burning tanker

0:30:21 > 0:30:23in the East China Sea are being beaten back

0:30:24 > 0:30:25by toxic clouds.

0:30:25 > 0:30:28The vessel has been on fire for two days.

0:30:29 > 0:30:31Coming up in the next half hour...

0:30:31 > 0:30:33The Brexiteer-in-chief's one-on-one with the EU's chief negotiator -

0:30:33 > 0:30:38what questions does Nigel Farage have for Michel Barnier?

0:30:38 > 0:30:41Why women are more likely than men to die within a year

0:30:41 > 0:30:43of suffering a heart attack - our medical

0:30:43 > 0:30:46correspondent has the details.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49Let us know your thoughts by using the hashtag #Beyond100Days.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Last year the EU's Chief negotiator Michel Barnier invited a number

0:31:01 > 0:31:04of British politicians to Brussels, who were not directly involved

0:31:04 > 0:31:06in the Brexit talks.

0:31:06 > 0:31:08In October he met with Remainers Ken Clarke,

0:31:08 > 0:31:10Nick Clegg and Lord Adonis.

0:31:10 > 0:31:14Today, it was the turn of the chief Brexiteer Nigel Farage.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Mr Farage was there in his capacity as the co-chair of a Eurosceptic

0:31:19 > 0:31:21group within the European Parliament.

0:31:21 > 0:31:23Ahead of the visit he had asked his radio listeners on LBC

0:31:24 > 0:31:26in London for suggested questions.

0:31:26 > 0:31:29And these were the three he took to his meeting.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31How does Mr Barnier view mass immigration into the EU coming

0:31:31 > 0:31:35across the Mediterranean and elsewhere?

0:31:35 > 0:31:37What happens to the EU's economy if there's no

0:31:37 > 0:31:38trade deal with Britain?

0:31:38 > 0:31:42Does Michel Barnier understand why Britain voted for Brexit?

0:31:45 > 0:31:48So when we talked to him earlier, I asked Mr Farage whether Mr Barnier

0:31:51 > 0:31:56does understand why Britain voted for Brexit?

0:31:56 > 0:32:00What answers did you get from Michel Barnier to the three questions posed

0:32:00 > 0:32:03by your listeners, particularly that one as to whether he understands

0:32:03 > 0:32:04by your listeners, particularly that one as to whether he understands why

0:32:04 > 0:32:08Britain voted for Brexit?Well, he said the British people were told a

0:32:08 > 0:32:13pack of lies, they were told there was £350 million a week for the

0:32:13 > 0:32:18National Health Service. I said, well, OK, do you not understand

0:32:18 > 0:32:21that, actually, open-door immigration was the key driver that

0:32:21 > 0:32:26pushed turnout up on the day of the referendum? The answer, very

0:32:26 > 0:32:31clearly, was no. He looked at me with some degree in convention.Did

0:32:31 > 0:32:39you talk to him about the no deal scenario?I did. Said, look, when it

0:32:39 > 0:32:43comes to it, you sell us a lot more wine, motorcars, cheese and

0:32:43 > 0:32:50chocolate and we sell to you. There is an annual deficit that averages

0:32:50 > 0:32:55about 80 billion every single year. I said, you know, if there is to be

0:32:55 > 0:32:58a free-trade deal so that we can continue to be one of your biggest

0:32:58 > 0:33:05markets, you, in turn, have to come to an agreement with us on financial

0:33:05 > 0:33:10services. As soon as I mentioned financial services, the idea of a

0:33:10 > 0:33:12sensible co-operation, that was the moment in the meeting at which his

0:33:12 > 0:33:19body language changed. Really what he is saying is, for there to be an

0:33:19 > 0:33:21all-encompassing deal that includes goods and financial services, it

0:33:21 > 0:33:25will mean that we have to accept the continued free movement of people,

0:33:25 > 0:33:29it would mean we have to accept the jurisdiction, on an ongoing basis,

0:33:29 > 0:33:34of the European Court of Justice. What it would mean is that we would

0:33:34 > 0:33:37not actually believing the European Union. I said, if that is the line

0:33:37 > 0:33:40you stick to, what you will find over the course of the next few

0:33:40 > 0:33:43weeks and months are British businesses saying, hey, let's not

0:33:43 > 0:33:47waste our time. If a deal is totally unobtainable, why don't we go for a

0:33:47 > 0:33:54quick exit and WTO rules? I said that wasn't my ideal scenario, but I

0:33:54 > 0:33:59suggested it would be European financial houses and European car

0:33:59 > 0:34:04makers that would be far worse hit than we would.Far from certain we

0:34:04 > 0:34:08are going to walk away with no deal at all, there is just as strong

0:34:08 > 0:34:12possibility that Britain is looking for a soft deal, particularly on the

0:34:12 > 0:34:15Irish border issue? Regulatory alignment is effectively staying in

0:34:15 > 0:34:18the single market, isn't it? You are looking at something very different

0:34:18 > 0:34:23from what you wanted?Make no bones about it, one of the driving forces

0:34:23 > 0:34:26behind this meeting is that I do not think that the government have

0:34:26 > 0:34:31really picked up the spirit of what 17.4 million people voted for and,

0:34:31 > 0:34:35in doing so, defying the entire global order. It is very clear what

0:34:35 > 0:34:41we voted for on that day of the 23rd of June 20 16. It was to be out of

0:34:41 > 0:34:43the European Union, out of the single market, out of the customs

0:34:43 > 0:34:47union and out of the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice. I am

0:34:47 > 0:34:51very unhappy with the concessions we have made in phase one, but I am

0:34:51 > 0:34:57beginning to think that to move on phase two, to talk about trade, if

0:34:57 > 0:35:02he is not prepared to give an inch, it begins to feel like we might be

0:35:02 > 0:35:08wasting our time.But you didn't think you are going to go in and he

0:35:08 > 0:35:12was given to say, OK, I see, I understand what Brexit is about now,

0:35:12 > 0:35:15we will give you more concessions come that wasn't going to happen?

0:35:15 > 0:35:22I'll tell you what, firstly, he will understand a bit better that the

0:35:22 > 0:35:31free movement of people in the European Union after ten communist

0:35:31 > 0:35:36countries joined, that was a driving force. He may not believe me. But on

0:35:36 > 0:35:40Wednesday this week, we have Lord Digby Jones, the former boss of the

0:35:40 > 0:35:43CBI, and John Longworth, the former boss of the British Chamber of

0:35:43 > 0:35:45Commerce, going in to meet him. He will learn from those people

0:35:45 > 0:35:50directly that what I said was not wrong, that actually we reach a

0:35:50 > 0:35:55point where we will not go on for a deal with a transition and

0:35:55 > 0:35:59everything else that ultimately is not going to be a grown-up deal. In

0:35:59 > 0:36:02terms of whether we're going to leave the European Union or not,

0:36:02 > 0:36:05frankly that is irreversible. Public opinion is very much more strongly

0:36:05 > 0:36:09behind it than it was back at the time of the referendum. We are going

0:36:09 > 0:36:14to leave, but is great. However, if the terms upon which we leave mean,

0:36:14 > 0:36:20effectively, as Cathy said, that we would be in the single market, not

0:36:20 > 0:36:24officially part of it, regulatory alignment, following the rules, with

0:36:24 > 0:36:27the European Court of Justice still having a say over EU citizens living

0:36:27 > 0:36:33in Britain, if we leave in Britain in name only, that is not good

0:36:33 > 0:36:38enough. It will be unfinished business and will continue to

0:36:38 > 0:36:41dominate British politics for decades to come.One thing that

0:36:41 > 0:36:45Nigel Farage has got right, and we don't talk about it a lot, that is

0:36:45 > 0:36:48the financial head that Europe is going to take. They have been

0:36:48 > 0:36:51talking about that within the context of the commission, the next

0:36:51 > 0:36:56budget round once the UK has left. -- the financial hit. Jean-Claude

0:36:56 > 0:37:01Juncker saying, don't believe Brexit is not going to happen, I don't

0:37:01 > 0:37:05think Britain will change its mind. The budget commission says if we are

0:37:05 > 0:37:08going to put together the budget after 2020, there has to be 50%

0:37:08 > 0:37:13spending cuts and you have to put in 50% more. They have warned them

0:37:13 > 0:37:16there will have to be some cuts since a major EU programmes,

0:37:16 > 0:37:20significant cuts. The European Union and European members already facing

0:37:20 > 0:37:24up to the fact that without Britain, remember, Britain is one of the ten

0:37:24 > 0:37:28member states that pay more into the EU budget than they get out, only

0:37:28 > 0:37:33France and Germany pay more, that is a significant hit two European

0:37:33 > 0:37:34finances when the UK has left.

0:37:34 > 0:37:37Theresa May has reshuffled her cabinet for the third time

0:37:37 > 0:37:39since becoming Prime Minister but the "big beasts"

0:37:39 > 0:37:42in her team remain in place.

0:37:42 > 0:37:44The key posts in government are unchanged.

0:37:44 > 0:37:46Philip Hammond, Boris Johnson, David Davis and Amber Rudd

0:37:46 > 0:37:48all keep their jobs.

0:37:48 > 0:37:52But there are some other notable changes.

0:37:52 > 0:37:53Let's get the latest from our chief political

0:37:54 > 0:37:56correspondent, Vicki Young.

0:37:56 > 0:38:00It took a long time today, there were all sort of rumours

0:38:00 > 0:38:04circulating. Was this the stealthy, slow, careful Theresa May plodding

0:38:04 > 0:38:10away through the reshuffle, or did it reflect the weakness that she has

0:38:10 > 0:38:13within her own party?I suppose this is the time when most Prime Minister

0:38:13 > 0:38:20is have the maximum impact, the maximum power. They can end careers,

0:38:20 > 0:38:24they can promote others. They never go quite to plan. It is not the

0:38:24 > 0:38:28first time when there have been tales of post-it notes stuck on

0:38:28 > 0:38:33walls, one fellow off, the man never got his job, the wrong name being

0:38:33 > 0:38:35given, the wrong person being appointed, all those things have

0:38:35 > 0:38:38happened. This was going to plan, mainly because there were not many

0:38:38 > 0:38:41changes. And then suddenly, because they walk up the street in Downing

0:38:41 > 0:38:46Street, they go into Number 10, the press outside and watching, you know

0:38:46 > 0:38:51how long they are in there for. There was an hour or two were two

0:38:51 > 0:38:54people, Jeremy Hunt, the Health Secretary Andy Business Secretary,

0:38:54 > 0:39:01they were both in there and nobody came out for ages. Turns out Jeremy

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Hunt was arguing not to be removed at Health Secretary, and he seems to

0:39:04 > 0:39:09have won. He has stayed in that job. It is still going on, Justine

0:39:09 > 0:39:13Greening, the Education Secretary, has been in there for almost two and

0:39:13 > 0:39:16a half hours. There were rumours of her being sacked or moved. There is

0:39:16 > 0:39:19clearly something going on, a lot of people have been tweeting with

0:39:19 > 0:39:24suggestions of what is going on. One said they are sitting down and

0:39:24 > 0:39:29watching a box set, once you start, it is one episode after another.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32Eight two and a half hour job interview sounds like my idea of

0:39:32 > 0:39:36hell on earth! The question from the side of the Atlantic and other

0:39:36 > 0:39:42countries around the world would be very simple, does the reshuffle make

0:39:42 > 0:39:46the Prime Minister's Government more stable and strong?The fact that she

0:39:46 > 0:39:51has not been able to war wanted to move the top jobs, if you like, the

0:39:51 > 0:39:54ones that affect international affairs, Boris Johnson, for example,

0:39:54 > 0:40:00the Foreign Secretary, he is still in place. The trade Secretary is

0:40:00 > 0:40:03still there. David Davis is in charge of the Brexit negotiations.

0:40:03 > 0:40:06He is still in his post. That is partly because after the general

0:40:06 > 0:40:11election were Theresa May lost the majority for the Conservatives, she

0:40:11 > 0:40:15was weakened. Her position has stabilised a little bit. But I think

0:40:15 > 0:40:19she is still not really able to do what she wants to do. In those

0:40:19 > 0:40:24terms, there is not going to be any major policy shifts. Her idea

0:40:24 > 0:40:27tomorrow is to promote younger talent in the lower ranks, if you

0:40:27 > 0:40:30like, to try to change the face of the Conservative Party and make it a

0:40:30 > 0:40:36bit more diverse. So far, not everything has been going to plan.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42Health campaigners are calling for women, who have a heart attack,

0:40:42 > 0:40:45to be given the same treatment options as men, after a major

0:40:45 > 0:40:48new study revealed differences in care and in mortality rates.

0:40:48 > 0:40:51A decade long study, in Sweden, found that women who had the most

0:40:51 > 0:40:53serious form of heart attack were twice as likely to die than

0:40:54 > 0:40:55men in the year after the attack.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58It found they were less likely to receive recommended treatments,

0:40:58 > 0:41:00like bypass surgery and statins, than male patients -

0:41:00 > 0:41:05as our medical correspondent, Fergus Walsh reports.

0:41:05 > 0:41:06AMBULANCE SIRENS

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Every minute counts after a heart attack.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12But too many women are being misdiagnosed and wrongly treated.

0:41:14 > 0:41:17When Jules Conjoice had a heart attack aged just 45,

0:41:17 > 0:41:19she displayed classic symptoms, but these were initially

0:41:19 > 0:41:24dismissed by paramedics.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27Overwhelming pain in my chest, the pain went up to my jaw,

0:41:27 > 0:41:32and sort of spread, then it was going down my left arm.

0:41:32 > 0:41:35And then I had this overwhelming feeling of going to be sick,

0:41:35 > 0:41:38and this clamminess.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41The paramedics said, oh, have you got pins and needles?

0:41:41 > 0:41:42I said, yeah.

0:41:42 > 0:41:45She said, I think it's a panic attack.

0:41:45 > 0:41:48And I remember thinking, this isn't a panic attack.

0:41:48 > 0:41:51This is something more.

0:41:51 > 0:41:54A new study looked at more than 60,000 women in Sweden who

0:41:54 > 0:41:57had the most serious type of heart attack, when there is

0:41:57 > 0:42:01a total blockage of one of the major arteries.

0:42:01 > 0:42:03It found that compared to men they were roughly twice as likely

0:42:03 > 0:42:07to die from their heart attack within a year.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10They were less likely to have treatment, to clear blocked

0:42:10 > 0:42:15arteries, to be prescribed statins or given aspirin.

0:42:15 > 0:42:18One statistic that may surprise you is that women in the UK

0:42:18 > 0:42:21are more than twice as likely to die from coronary heart disease

0:42:21 > 0:42:24than from breast cancer.

0:42:27 > 0:42:29Often it seems women present with unusual symptoms,

0:42:29 > 0:42:32and researchers say that helps explain why, in the UK, like Sweden,

0:42:32 > 0:42:39they are not always getting the right treatment.

0:42:39 > 0:42:42Women may well present with other symptoms,

0:42:42 > 0:42:45such as breathlessness, fatigue, palpitations or pain,

0:42:45 > 0:42:49that is more atypical in nature such as stabbing or sharp.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52And these findings can be misinterpreted, both by the patient

0:42:52 > 0:42:58and health care professionals.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01But if more women are to get rapid access to treatment like this,

0:43:01 > 0:43:03to clear blocked arteries, there needs to be greater awareness

0:43:03 > 0:43:05that they, like men, are at risk of heart attacks.

0:43:05 > 0:43:09Fergus Walsh, BBC News.

0:43:17 > 0:43:20Angela Merkel say she is confident she will be able to arrange a

0:43:20 > 0:43:24coalition to continue to govern. Talks between her Christian

0:43:24 > 0:43:26Democrats and the social Democrats have begun after earlier meetings

0:43:26 > 0:43:30with a group of smaller parties failed to reach a deal. It is three

0:43:30 > 0:43:38months since the German election resulted in no overall winner.

0:43:38 > 0:43:40Flooding at New York's JFK airport has created further

0:43:40 > 0:43:42misery for travellers, many of whom had already faced

0:43:42 > 0:43:44delays due to recent winter storms.

0:43:44 > 0:43:47The flood from a burst water main caused major disruption with water

0:43:47 > 0:43:49pouring from the ceiling and inches of water in the arrivals

0:43:49 > 0:43:53area of Terminal 4.

0:43:53 > 0:43:55The Brazilian football player, Philippe Coutinho, has completed

0:43:55 > 0:44:00a move from Liverpool to Barcelona.

0:44:00 > 0:44:04The deal is reported to be worth over £140 million,

0:44:04 > 0:44:05that's over $190 million.

0:44:05 > 0:44:08This is the highest fee Barcelona has paid for a player.

0:44:08 > 0:44:10But fans may have to wait three weeks before Coutinho's debut.

0:44:10 > 0:44:20A thigh injury was identified during his medical.

0:44:25 > 0:44:31Lawyers have been bracing themselves for many divorce cases. Apparently

0:44:31 > 0:44:39many relationships buckle under the added pressures of Christmas. I can

0:44:39 > 0:44:43assure you that Christian are not going to have a divorce.That is

0:44:43 > 0:44:52bringing down the tree, dealing with all of those baubles.Still to come,

0:44:52 > 0:44:57why the BBC China editor turned down a $60,000 pay raise to remain in the

0:44:57 > 0:44:58role.

0:45:01 > 0:45:04Here, some pharmacists at Boots are worried that work pressures mean

0:45:04 > 0:45:05patients could be put at risk.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08A former manager, who flagged up his concerns about understaffing

0:45:08 > 0:45:10to the industry regulator before he resigned in 2015,

0:45:10 > 0:45:13has now spoken publicly for the first time to the BBC's

0:45:13 > 0:45:17Inside Out programme.

0:45:17 > 0:45:19Boots says it's confident its pharmacies have enough staff.

0:45:19 > 0:45:20Marie Ashby reports.

0:45:20 > 0:45:23Boots is one of the country's best-known high street names

0:45:23 > 0:45:25and the largest pharmacy chain in the UK.

0:45:25 > 0:45:32It has almost 2,400 stores and provides a crucial NHS service.

0:45:32 > 0:45:34But some pharmacists at Boots are worried that the work

0:45:34 > 0:45:36pressures they're under could lead to mistakes.

0:45:36 > 0:45:39Two of the pharmacists we spoke to were prepared to be

0:45:39 > 0:45:41interviewed, as long as their identity was protected.

0:45:41 > 0:45:45Their words are spoken by actors.

0:45:45 > 0:45:48Some days, you would easily describe the team as being at breaking point.

0:45:48 > 0:45:51Because, simply, the amount of work that has to be done can't

0:45:51 > 0:45:53physically get done, safely, and it can't physically get

0:45:53 > 0:45:59done without either working longer hours or working

0:45:59 > 0:46:00after the store's closed.

0:46:00 > 0:46:03Mistakes may not be picked up on and that could ultimately lead

0:46:03 > 0:46:08to somebody possibly dying.

0:46:08 > 0:46:13We have an industry-leading patient safety record. I am confident that

0:46:13 > 0:46:15the resources are there to deliver patient care that we have enough

0:46:15 > 0:46:17staff.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20Greg Lawton was a former manager who was involved in patient safety

0:46:20 > 0:46:23at Boots, until he resigned more than two years ago.

0:46:23 > 0:46:24He reported his concerns about understaffing

0:46:24 > 0:46:25to the General Pharmaceutical Council.

0:46:25 > 0:46:28They told me that they were going to review their inspection

0:46:28 > 0:46:29model, as a result.

0:46:29 > 0:46:31They didn't interview a single person.

0:46:31 > 0:46:34And they concluded that there wasn't any problem at all.

0:46:34 > 0:46:37Just over a year ago, the regulator also told him its investigation

0:46:37 > 0:46:39found there was no systemic failure by Boots to provide adequate

0:46:39 > 0:46:45staff in its pharmacies.

0:46:45 > 0:46:48Greg, his opinions and his concerns, left the business over two years ago

0:46:48 > 0:46:54and aren't relevant to Boots today.

0:46:54 > 0:46:56The industry regulator is providing more patient safety guidance

0:46:56 > 0:46:58to community pharmacies later this year.

0:46:58 > 0:47:02Marie Ashby, BBC News.

0:47:06 > 0:47:08You're watching Beyond 100 Days.

0:47:08 > 0:47:10The BBC's China editor, Carrie Gracie, has stepped down

0:47:10 > 0:47:13from the role because of what she's called an "indefensible pay gap

0:47:13 > 0:47:16between men and women" at the BBC.

0:47:16 > 0:47:19In an open letter addressed to licence fee payers, Carrie Gracie -

0:47:19 > 0:47:21who is remaining at the BBC - accused the corporation

0:47:21 > 0:47:24of "breaking equality law".

0:47:24 > 0:47:25A BBC spokesperson says there's "no systemic

0:47:26 > 0:47:29discrimination against women".

0:47:29 > 0:47:33Here's our Media Editor Amol Rajan.

0:47:33 > 0:47:37Chinese once called Chairman Mao the great helmsman...

0:47:37 > 0:47:39Carrie Gracie is one of the most respected international

0:47:39 > 0:47:41editors of her generation.

0:47:41 > 0:47:44For more than 30 years, she has broadcast about other

0:47:44 > 0:47:48people, but this time, she is the centre of the story.

0:47:48 > 0:47:50Ms Gracie resigned from her position as China editor

0:47:50 > 0:47:56because she is paid less than men who are also international editors.

0:47:59 > 0:48:01This morning, she presented the Today Programme on Radio 4.

0:48:01 > 0:48:02It's been very moving, actually...

0:48:02 > 0:48:06The news of her resignation leaked out online last night.

0:48:06 > 0:48:09Six months after the BBC was forced to reveal the salaries of some

0:48:09 > 0:48:11highly paid on air staff, Ms Gracie has been infuriated

0:48:11 > 0:48:14by the response to her grievance.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17She was offered a pay rise of £45,000 but declined it,

0:48:17 > 0:48:19saying equality is what she wants.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21She would not be drawn on whether she wanted male

0:48:21 > 0:48:24colleagues to take a pay cut.

0:48:24 > 0:48:27When I started the China job, I said I will only do this job

0:48:27 > 0:48:28if I'm paid equally.

0:48:28 > 0:48:31And in July 2017, I discovered the enormous gap, that the two men

0:48:31 > 0:48:33who were international editors were earning 50% more,

0:48:33 > 0:48:39at least, than the two women who were international editors.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45The BBC has completed two of the three pay audits it

0:48:45 > 0:48:47announced last year, and found no evidence

0:48:47 > 0:48:49of discrimination.

0:48:49 > 0:48:51The final one will report in a matter of weeks.

0:48:51 > 0:48:54The corporation declined to put anyone up for an interview,

0:48:54 > 0:48:55but in a statement, they said...

0:49:08 > 0:49:11The BBC talks about a gender pay gap, but what I'm talking

0:49:11 > 0:49:13about is not a gender pay gap, where sometimes men and women

0:49:13 > 0:49:17are in different roles, which explains the differences

0:49:17 > 0:49:22in pay, what I'm talking about is sex discrimination,

0:49:22 > 0:49:24which is when men are paid more for doing the same job

0:49:24 > 0:49:26or a job of equal value.

0:49:26 > 0:49:30That is illegal.

0:49:30 > 0:49:33There is tremendous anger among many female staff at all levels

0:49:33 > 0:49:34of this corporation.

0:49:34 > 0:49:37Senior figures at the BBC say they take this issue very seriously,

0:49:37 > 0:49:40but many employees have found the process of fighting for equal

0:49:40 > 0:49:44pay completely unbearable.

0:49:44 > 0:49:46The salience of this story, however, arises

0:49:46 > 0:49:49from its implications beyond this place, because it's happening

0:49:49 > 0:49:51in a climate in which many women across several

0:49:51 > 0:49:53industries say they have suffered injustice and inequality

0:49:53 > 0:49:56for far too long.

0:49:56 > 0:49:58Equality legislation doesn't work.

0:49:58 > 0:50:01We need to make it work.

0:50:01 > 0:50:04We make it work by forcing companies to be honest,

0:50:04 > 0:50:06which is still not happening,

0:50:06 > 0:50:08and by forcing companies to examine their hiring, promotion

0:50:08 > 0:50:11and parental leave policies.

0:50:12 > 0:50:14Equal pay for equal work is a legal requirement.

0:50:14 > 0:50:16But who decides what equal work is?

0:50:16 > 0:50:20Ultimately, it's usually the employer.

0:50:20 > 0:50:22This is what makes tackling gender pay issues so difficult,

0:50:22 > 0:50:24because obviously, we want people to be treated

0:50:24 > 0:50:26equally and given equal opportunities in the workplace,

0:50:26 > 0:50:31but employers also need

0:50:31 > 0:50:33to have the capacity to offer people flexible payments,

0:50:33 > 0:50:36bonuses and that kind of thing to reward and incentivise people

0:50:36 > 0:50:38to do well in their job.

0:50:38 > 0:50:40The BBC's public ownership and obligations means it has

0:50:40 > 0:50:46to set unique standards and face unique scrutiny.

0:50:46 > 0:50:49With 200 formal complaints in train and the possibility of legal action,

0:50:49 > 0:50:51this story will run and run.

0:50:51 > 0:51:00Amol Rajan, BBC News.

0:51:00 > 0:51:02An American billionaire has announced his redoubling his

0:51:02 > 0:51:08campaign to remove Boldrin from office. John stayer says he will

0:51:08 > 0:51:12donate another $30 million to the Democrat's efforts to regain control

0:51:12 > 0:51:16of Congress. He has already called for the management of the President.

0:51:16 > 0:51:22In a news briefing, he said he would not stand as a candidate in the 2018

0:51:38 > 0:51:39city in the US in 2011.

0:51:39 > 0:51:42But that has been changing, thanks in part to its 27-year old mayor -

0:51:42 > 0:51:44the youngest city leader in the country.

0:51:44 > 0:51:46Michael Tubbs was born in Stockton, but went away

0:51:46 > 0:51:48to Stanford University for his education.

0:51:48 > 0:51:50After graduating he travelled overseas, and even worked

0:51:50 > 0:51:52in the White House, before tragedy brought him back home.

0:51:52 > 0:51:54The BBC went to meet him.

0:51:54 > 0:51:56A very violent day in Stockton.

0:51:56 > 0:51:57Five people are dead...

0:51:57 > 0:52:00In one of Stockton's deadliest days on record.

0:52:00 > 0:52:03Stockton stands as the largest US city to declare bankruptcy.

0:52:06 > 0:52:09There's a lot of love, there's also a lot of pain.

0:52:09 > 0:52:13My childhood and upbringing is probably the primary reason why

0:52:13 > 0:52:15I am on the path I am on today.

0:52:15 > 0:52:16Sometimes I pinch myself.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18Like, yo, you're the mayor!

0:52:18 > 0:52:20Especially when it comes to things like problem-solving,

0:52:20 > 0:52:28why don't they do it like that?

0:52:28 > 0:52:29Why aren't you doing it?

0:52:29 > 0:52:30You're the Mayor!

0:52:30 > 0:52:34Or you can at least call the people that can do it.

0:52:34 > 0:52:39In Stockton, I lived in four out of five hot areas,

0:52:39 > 0:52:41areas that are currently having a lot of the city's

0:52:41 > 0:52:42violent crime issues.

0:52:47 > 0:52:49My father has been incarcerated all my life.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51My mother had me as a teenager.

0:52:51 > 0:52:54So growing up in poverty, a lot of the things I do policy

0:52:54 > 0:52:56work on, or research, or read about or speak about,

0:52:56 > 0:52:59are things that I have lived and felt very viscerally.

0:52:59 > 0:53:01I had no intention of coming back to Stockton

0:53:01 > 0:53:02when I graduated high school.

0:53:02 > 0:53:05I spent time in El Salvador, I was in DC, working

0:53:05 > 0:53:06in the White House.

0:53:06 > 0:53:08There were a lot of options available and Stockton

0:53:08 > 0:53:09wasn't one of them.

0:53:10 > 0:53:12One of my cousins was murdered in Stockton.

0:53:16 > 0:53:18That kind of shifted the whole paradigm around what it

0:53:18 > 0:53:21meant to be successful and what it was I wanted to do.

0:53:22 > 0:53:26Today is a really exciting day for the city.

0:53:26 > 0:53:32We have a venue around Heroes Park, and this church has been replacing

0:53:32 > 0:53:34the backboard that was vandalised a couple of months ago.

0:53:34 > 0:53:36It's a great day in the city.

0:53:36 > 0:53:39It shows how in Stockton it is regular people that

0:53:39 > 0:53:40are driving a lot of the change.

0:53:40 > 0:53:43Often times, it's hard to convey the amount of work,

0:53:43 > 0:53:46discipline and sacrifice it takes to get into a position like this,

0:53:46 > 0:53:48especially if you're the first or the youngest.

0:53:48 > 0:53:51Even more so, both.

0:53:51 > 0:53:53What you think of Stockton now?

0:53:53 > 0:53:54Stockton is a city on the rise.

0:53:54 > 0:53:57I think Stockton is the all-American city.

0:53:57 > 0:53:59It's a place where you can make an impact.

0:54:05 > 0:54:07My grandmother used to always tell me the Scripture,

0:54:07 > 0:54:11don't despise small beginnings.

0:54:11 > 0:54:13The Lord rejoices in seeing the work begin.

0:54:13 > 0:54:16I'm personally getting a lot of attention, but I would be

0:54:16 > 0:54:19so upset if we can't look back four years from now and can't point

0:54:19 > 0:54:27to things that are better, but for me and my team being here.

0:54:27 > 0:54:3427 years old, makes me feel like a total underachiever! I have been out

0:54:34 > 0:54:37to see the Mayor of Compton in California, filming a documentary

0:54:37 > 0:54:40coming up at the beginning of next month. All around America, you look

0:54:40 > 0:54:44at the politics of the country nationally, it is pretty

0:54:44 > 0:54:48dysfunctional. But in every city, there are people doing that, turning

0:54:48 > 0:54:52the lights on, making sure potholes get fixed, moving their cities

0:54:52 > 0:54:56forward. On big issues like climate change, traffic, pollution, it is in

0:54:56 > 0:55:02cities in America, Mayors, states and governors, that is where

0:55:02 > 0:55:06innovation is happening, not necessarily here in Washington.

0:55:06 > 0:55:10Before we go, there is something different about you. Something that

0:55:10 > 0:55:19wasn't there before. I think you can see me?I have had my eyes lasered.

0:55:19 > 0:55:24For the first time in 17 years, I can read the prompt without glasses.

0:55:24 > 0:55:29I didn't even know that you were blonde! It is revolutionary. I

0:55:29 > 0:55:32skipped the clinic on Saturday for my checkup. I am such a coward, I

0:55:32 > 0:55:37would normally do something like that. I got tired of wearing contact

0:55:37 > 0:55:42lenses in the studio. I got on this machine and she said, five, four,

0:55:42 > 0:55:46three, two, one, I grimaced for the pain and she said, that's done. No

0:55:46 > 0:55:53pain at all. I wish I had done it 15 years ago. Coming up next, Ross

0:55:53 > 0:55:58Atkins is here with Outside Source. For viewers in the UK, we will have

0:55:58 > 0:55:59the latest
