0:00:06 > 0:00:08You're watching Beyond 100 Days.
0:00:08 > 0:00:09It's happened again.
0:00:09 > 0:00:13The 18th school shooting this year in America kills 17 people.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16Why can't the US fix this?
0:00:16 > 0:00:18The accused gunman is now in custody.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21He'd been a student at the Florida high school.
0:00:21 > 0:00:24He went up and down the hallway, banging and shooting
0:00:24 > 0:00:25into the classrooms.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28He shot through my door.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30President Trump addresses the nation, promising to tackle
0:00:30 > 0:00:32the difficult issue of mental health, but makes no
0:00:32 > 0:00:36mention of gun control.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39It is not enough to simply take actions that make us feel
0:00:39 > 0:00:44like we are making a difference.
0:00:44 > 0:00:50We must actually make that difference.
0:00:50 > 0:00:52All change in South Africa - Cyril Ramaphosa says one
0:00:52 > 0:00:55of his priorities as the country's new President will be
0:00:55 > 0:00:59to fight corruption.
0:00:59 > 0:01:00Also on the programme:
0:01:00 > 0:01:03The city of Compton is famous for rap music and gang wars
0:01:03 > 0:01:04but life is improving there.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06We explore how.
0:01:06 > 0:01:11Get in touch with us using the hashtag #Beyond100Days.
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Hello, I'm Katty Kay in Washington.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23It's another of those days that the world looks
0:01:23 > 0:01:25at America and wonders, how do they tolerate this?
0:01:25 > 0:01:28There has been a school shooting in the US on average every 60
0:01:28 > 0:01:30hours so far this year.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Every 60 hours.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34As parents across this country sent their children off
0:01:34 > 0:01:37to class this morning, they wondered, is my child safe?
0:01:37 > 0:01:41For too many families in south Florida, the answer was no.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43But, even as politicians across the board said today that
0:01:43 > 0:01:45mass shootings have to stop, it seems they are
0:01:45 > 0:01:50only getting worse.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53For the latest, from Florida, here's Neda Tawfik.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Running for their lives, these panicked students fled as fast as
0:01:56 > 0:02:04they could.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06They realised quickly that they were in very real danger.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09This was not a drill that American schools have rehearsed time
0:02:09 > 0:02:10and again for these exact scenarios.
0:02:10 > 0:02:17I have the gunshot victim.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Stoneman Douglas High was quickly placed on lockdown.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22These were the terrifying sounds from inside.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27Students huddled together, shaken, scared, and completely helpless.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30They leaned on each other for support as the horror
0:02:30 > 0:02:39unfolded in front of them.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42One of my friends, I haven't heard from him, says that shooting
0:02:42 > 0:02:43happened.
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Police have identified the 19-year-old attacker
0:02:44 > 0:02:45as Nikolas Cruz.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48He arrived on campus heavily armed, with a semiautomatic rifle
0:02:48 > 0:02:49and several magazines of ammunition.
0:02:49 > 0:02:54He also carried a gas mask and smoke grenades.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56It is clear that this was a well-planned plot
0:02:56 > 0:02:58to maximise the loss of life.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01The shooter set off the fire alarm to draw children out
0:03:01 > 0:03:04of their classrooms.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Police warned that the shooter was still at large even as the rescue
0:03:07 > 0:03:12operation was under way.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15Another jolt of terror, and then relief as students realised SWAT
0:03:15 > 0:03:18teams and not the shooter had reached them first.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20He went up and down the hallway banging and shooting
0:03:20 > 0:03:22into the classrooms, he shot through my door
0:03:22 > 0:03:25and broke the window.
0:03:25 > 0:03:32As soon as the fire drill went to the kids got evacuated.
0:03:32 > 0:03:42Then all of a sudden we heard one of our student government teachers
0:03:42 > 0:03:45say, run as fast as you can, and we heard a gunshot.
0:03:45 > 0:03:4717 children and teachers killed, more than a dozen injured,
0:03:47 > 0:03:48being treated in local hospitals.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51President Trump addressed the nation from the White House and said
0:03:51 > 0:03:55he will visit victims and local officials in Parkland.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58He said the country needed to tackle the difficult issue of mental health
0:03:58 > 0:04:01but was silent on gun control.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05No child, no teacher should ever be in danger in an American school.
0:04:05 > 0:04:09No parent should ever have to fear for their sons and their daughters
0:04:09 > 0:04:15when they kiss them goodbye in the morning.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19This is the moment Nikolas Cruz was finally arrested in a nearby town.
0:04:19 > 0:04:21He evaded authorities for almost one hour,
0:04:21 > 0:04:28blending in with the swarms of students fleeing the school.
0:04:28 > 0:04:31He has now been charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder
0:04:31 > 0:04:34and is being held without bail.
0:04:34 > 0:04:39Authorities are piecing together his possible motives.
0:04:39 > 0:04:44He was expelled from the school last year for disciplinary
0:04:44 > 0:04:46reasons, and students described him as troubled.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48He was on the FBI's radar since September.
0:04:48 > 0:04:55He was flagged up to the agency after he commented on a YouTube
0:04:55 > 0:05:00video that he would be a "professional schools shooter".
0:05:00 > 0:05:03The FBI says they investigated the threat but could not identify
0:05:03 > 0:05:07the person behind it.
0:05:07 > 0:05:12One of the safest cities in the country, but it did not stop
0:05:12 > 0:05:14it from becoming the 18th school shooting this year.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17The question that seemingly everyone in the nation is now asking
0:05:17 > 0:05:19is whether this is the new normal.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21Tales of heroism are emerging from the tragedy.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23One security guard and football coach is said to have shielded
0:05:23 > 0:05:25children as the gunman fired.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27He did not survive his injuries.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30The kids in the community loved him, adored him.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32He was one of the greatest people I knew.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36A phenomenal man.
0:05:36 > 0:05:39With each shooting, there is the inevitable debate on gun
0:05:39 > 0:05:40ownership in America.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Yet this country is more divided than ever on how
0:05:43 > 0:05:50to solve this problem.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Too many children and families.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57Neda Tawfik reporting there from Florida.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00The government has now appeared in court in southern Florida and has
0:06:00 > 0:06:06been held without bail. The FBI has conferred it got a tip about
0:06:06 > 0:06:10somebody with the same name as the shooter in September, and a white
0:06:10 > 0:06:14separatist group said he had some ties to them. -- white supremacist
0:06:14 > 0:06:15group.
0:06:15 > 0:06:16For more on the investigation now
0:06:16 > 0:06:19under way I am joined by Ron Hosko, former assistant
0:06:19 > 0:06:21director of the FBI.
0:06:21 > 0:06:26What happens when the FBI gets a tip of the nature that it received about
0:06:26 > 0:06:31somebody with the same name as the shooter in September?The FBI gets
0:06:31 > 0:06:37dozens of tips every day. They are looking for those tips not only for
0:06:37 > 0:06:42the ability to track it back to a source, but also from the
0:06:42 > 0:06:47perspective of, is there any sort of federal crime being committed by the
0:06:47 > 0:06:53conduct, by the words of the text or tweet, or their communication.If
0:06:53 > 0:06:59there hasn't been, they can't do much.They can't do much other than
0:06:59 > 0:07:01talk to local law enforcement authorities that might have a piece
0:07:01 > 0:07:06of jurisdiction but, if the FBI would try and identify and run out
0:07:06 > 0:07:10on every one of these tips, the FBI would have nothing else on its
0:07:10 > 0:07:15plate, and it does have much on its plate, cyber terrorism,
0:07:15 > 0:07:19counterintelligence, criminal activities.We are seeing pictures
0:07:19 > 0:07:26of the shooter, who has appeared in court. I understand he appeared by
0:07:26 > 0:07:31video link. It seems, in this case, there was a YouTube page in which
0:07:31 > 0:07:36somebody by the same name as that young man said he wanted to become a
0:07:36 > 0:07:39professional school shooter. Would that language fall into the category
0:07:39 > 0:07:48of something that was actionable for the FBI?It depends.Is there no set
0:07:48 > 0:07:51standard?They could maybe try and identify him and have a
0:07:51 > 0:07:55conversation, if they have the right wee sources. They might be able to
0:07:55 > 0:07:58hand it to local law enforcement if they can trace it back to one
0:07:58 > 0:08:06person. But is it actionable from a federal prosecutor perspective? No.
0:08:06 > 0:08:12What the FBI is looking for four federal prosecution is, are there
0:08:12 > 0:08:15any contingencies with the threat? Does the person have the immediate
0:08:15 > 0:08:21ability to carry out? Is it an immediate threat? There is a
0:08:21 > 0:08:24difference between this sort of threat, even though it is later
0:08:24 > 0:08:28proven that this person may be the same may have been serious, and
0:08:28 > 0:08:32e-mailing somebody or communicating with them, I am coming to your house
0:08:32 > 0:08:38to shoot you dead this afternoon and I live three blocks away, or across
0:08:38 > 0:08:42the state line, even better for the FBI. The FBI is looking for a
0:08:42 > 0:08:48federal nexus. Federal prosecutors look closely at that, and FBI agents
0:08:48 > 0:08:53make determinations on how to allocate their time, based on the
0:08:53 > 0:08:56likelihood of federal prosecution. From what we know of this attack and
0:08:56 > 0:09:02the investigation so far, what more could law enforcement have done? Was
0:09:02 > 0:09:07there anything that was missed that should have been picked up?From
0:09:07 > 0:09:10what we've heard, it sounds as though there were a number of
0:09:10 > 0:09:14warning signs with this gentleman, and this one communication the FBI
0:09:14 > 0:09:18was made aware of months ago might have been significantly enhanced by
0:09:18 > 0:09:23some of the postings that have been referred to in recent days and
0:09:23 > 0:09:26weeks. They were much more threatening and may be suggested
0:09:26 > 0:09:34this person had a serious problem. Add to that his weapon possession of
0:09:34 > 0:09:39a AR-15, maybe acquisition of it. It goes back to this see something, say
0:09:39 > 0:09:44something idea. Do enough pieces, wrote a person that start to suggest
0:09:44 > 0:09:51it's real. -- pieces come around a person. The problem for law
0:09:51 > 0:09:57enforcement is we are not perfect at predicting when words will turn to
0:09:57 > 0:10:01action.There have been claims by a Florida -based white supremacist
0:10:01 > 0:10:04group that he had done some training with them. How would that play into
0:10:04 > 0:10:10the investigation?The FBI would look at that and they will be
0:10:10 > 0:10:15working with law enforcement on these connections. What were his
0:10:15 > 0:10:19inspirations? It sounds as though he suffered a serious loss, losing his
0:10:19 > 0:10:24mother in November. Perhaps that was life changing and started to put him
0:10:24 > 0:10:27on this path. Law enforcement will try to reconstruct the entire
0:10:27 > 0:10:33picture to occlude what ever he chooses to tell them and share, and
0:10:33 > 0:10:36try and look back and say, what were his real drivers, was a depression,
0:10:36 > 0:10:42psychotic episodes, family loss, school, the whole collection.Thank
0:10:42 > 0:10:45you for coming in.
0:10:45 > 0:10:49So why does America have this scourge that no other country does?
0:10:49 > 0:10:51The lobby group for the gun industry, the National
0:10:51 > 0:10:52Rifle Association,
0:10:52 > 0:10:54has formidable power in this country.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57It donates a lot of money to politicians who oppose gun controls.
0:10:57 > 0:10:59In the 2016 election campaign cycle, the NRA spent
0:10:59 > 0:11:01$54.4 million on candidates who support gun rights.
0:11:01 > 0:11:0598% of that money went to Republicans.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Marco Rubio, the Republican senator from Florida, tweeted last night,
0:11:16 > 0:11:19Senator Rubio has received $3.3 million from the NRA
0:11:19 > 0:11:20over his political career.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25President Trump was a huge recipient of NRA support.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27The group spent $11.4 million on pro-Trump ads
0:11:27 > 0:11:28in the 2016 election -
0:11:28 > 0:11:30and, just as importantly, $19.8 million on ads
0:11:30 > 0:11:33against Hillary Clinton.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Chris Murphy is the Democratic senator from Connecticut.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38In 2012, 20 six and seven-year-olds were killed in his state
0:11:38 > 0:11:46at Sandy Hook elementary school.
0:11:46 > 0:11:52He gave an impassioned speech on the Senate floor last night.This
0:11:52 > 0:11:54happens nowhere else other than the United States of America. This
0:11:54 > 0:12:01academic of mass slaughter -- epidemic slaughter, the scourge of
0:12:01 > 0:12:07school shooting after school shooting. It only happens here not
0:12:07 > 0:12:14because of coincidence, not because of bad luck, but as a consequence of
0:12:14 > 0:12:22our inaction. We are responsible.I spoke to Senator Murphy a short time
0:12:22 > 0:12:26ago.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30President Trump mentioned the issue of mental health, which certainly is
0:12:30 > 0:12:34a problem in the United States, but every country has people with mental
0:12:34 > 0:12:37health problems. It's only America that has this rate of school
0:12:37 > 0:12:44shootings. Why?The problem has never been one of mental illness.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47America has no greater rate of mental illness than any other
0:12:47 > 0:12:50country. What's different in the United States is a celebratory
0:12:50 > 0:12:56culture of gun violence, that somehow green lights in these
0:12:56 > 0:13:00shooters' mines, the idea of mass violence, and access to weapons that
0:13:00 > 0:13:06doesn't exist in other places. Many people in Newtown don't think that
0:13:06 > 0:13:12Adam Lansar wouldn't have bought into that count if he didn't have
0:13:12 > 0:13:17violent video games. The ease with which people can get their hands on
0:13:17 > 0:13:24AR-15s contributes to it, and that is something which is exclusive to
0:13:24 > 0:13:27the United States.How powerful is the National Rifle Association? What
0:13:27 > 0:13:33pressure does it put on members of Congress?The NRA remains powerful
0:13:33 > 0:13:37enough to block progress. It's an issue of political power. They have
0:13:37 > 0:13:45been organising for 20 to 30 is, and the modern anti-gun movement really
0:13:45 > 0:13:48dates from Sandy Hook. We will catch up and become stronger than them,
0:13:48 > 0:13:53but it's going to be a bunch of failures until we get success, and
0:13:53 > 0:13:58that isn't unlike any other great social change in this country.We
0:13:58 > 0:14:03all thought, after the awful tragedy in Newtown in your state, things
0:14:03 > 0:14:08might change, but if they didn't change then, will it ever?This is
0:14:08 > 0:14:12about political power. I wish it were about people having an epiphany
0:14:12 > 0:14:16that they should demand that Congress takes steps to protect
0:14:16 > 0:14:20their children and grandchildren, but it's ultimately about creating
0:14:20 > 0:14:25more activists across this country that will show up at town halls and
0:14:25 > 0:14:30flood campaign offices and work to vote out members of Congress that
0:14:30 > 0:14:34routinely vote against the 90% of their constituents that want things
0:14:34 > 0:14:39like universal background checks. Thank you for joining me. There
0:14:39 > 0:14:43seems to be a pick-up in the number of these incidents, and it's
0:14:43 > 0:14:48possible that parents across this country start demand some kind of
0:14:48 > 0:14:51action from lawmakers, but I covered the Newtown shootings and I was
0:14:51 > 0:14:56there just after the children were killed. We thought that would change
0:14:56 > 0:15:00things in America, but that would be the catalyst for action to make sure
0:15:00 > 0:15:02that school shootings stop. It wasn't, and you have to wonder, if
0:15:02 > 0:15:07it didn't happen then, will it happen this time? All of our
0:15:07 > 0:15:11thoughts go out to those families in south Florida.
0:15:11 > 0:15:12South Africa has a new President.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Its parliament elected Cyril Ramaphosa to the leadership
0:15:14 > 0:15:17today, bringing to an end the reign of Jacob Zuma, who resigned
0:15:17 > 0:15:18late Wednesday.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Mr Ramaphosa inherits a troubled economy and a divided party -
0:15:21 > 0:15:23but among his first items of business, he says,
0:15:23 > 0:15:25will be to fight corruption.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29Our Africa editor, Fergal Keane, sent this report from Cape Town.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34In the place they call the mother city of the Republic,
0:15:34 > 0:15:42exaltation at what they felt was nothing less than deliverance.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44And, inside, the words that signalled the arrival
0:15:44 > 0:15:47of a new and very different order.
0:15:47 > 0:15:52I declare the honourable Cyril Ramaphosa duly elected
0:15:52 > 0:15:57President of the Republic of South Africa.
0:15:57 > 0:16:05He knew this moment was coming, yet seemed abashed.
0:16:05 > 0:16:10In his first words as President, the tone was consciously humble.
0:16:10 > 0:16:15When one is elected in this type of position, you basically become
0:16:15 > 0:16:19a servant of the people of South Africa, and I'll seek
0:16:19 > 0:16:25to execute that task with humility, faithfulness
0:16:25 > 0:16:31and with dignity as well.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35That is what I will seek to do.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37For now, his party enemies are defeated and the country
0:16:37 > 0:16:41is broadly behind him.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45But, on the other side of Table Mountain from Parliament,
0:16:45 > 0:16:48a sense of the challenge facing the new leader.
0:16:48 > 0:16:49Here in Langa township, they welcome Ramaphosa
0:16:49 > 0:16:54but expect him to deliver houses, jobs, services.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56We are still living in sheds.
0:16:56 > 0:17:00We, our mothers and fathers lived in sheds, and we the children
0:17:00 > 0:17:05and obviously our grandchildren have to live in sheds also.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Mr Ramaphosa, we vote for him, give him a chance and see
0:17:08 > 0:17:16if he will do things better, different than Mr J Zuma.
0:17:17 > 0:17:19After years when their party was tainted by corruption
0:17:19 > 0:17:22and losing electoral support, ANC Members of Parliament
0:17:22 > 0:17:25are daring to hope.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29There is a great deal of joy here, but also expectation.

0:18:34 > 0:18:36Mr Tillerson was speaking in Beirut, where he held
0:18:36 > 0:18:37talks with the president, speaker of parliament
0:18:38 > 0:18:39and the Prime Minister.
0:18:39 > 0:18:40Germany's Chancellor has been holding talks

0:18:46 > 0:18:49The jailing of Deniz Yucel has put a strain on relations
0:18:49 > 0:18:51between the countries, and Mr Yildirim said he hoped
0:18:55 > 0:18:58We began this programme with news of gun violence in Florida.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01A few weeks ago, I went to the city of Compton in California to look
0:19:01 > 0:19:03at how they've reduced the number of killings.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Compton became famous in the 1980s for gang wars.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09It was one of the most dangerous places in the country
0:19:09 > 0:19:12and the birthplace of gangsta rap.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14But, with better policing, a proactive mayor and a community
0:19:14 > 0:19:17that wants peace, Compton is turning round.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Here's my report, and a warning -
0:19:19 > 0:19:28there are flashing images at the start.
0:19:28 > 0:19:36Crime situation is high, it's very busy for law enforcement. But it's a
0:19:36 > 0:19:40very small percentage of people causing the problems.The night
0:19:40 > 0:19:44patrol with the LA sheriffs in the city of competence. Two suspected
0:19:44 > 0:19:51members of the south side Compton Crips gang are under arrest.It
0:19:51 > 0:19:55would be really unsafe for them to be in the rivals' area and, if they
0:19:55 > 0:20:00they'll have to have protection because it's almost expected for
0:20:00 > 0:20:04them to be armed.Police estimate there are almost 4000 gang members
0:20:04 > 0:20:14in competentour service area is ten square miles. So, for every square
0:20:14 > 0:20:22mile we have, we have almost six active gangs.37 gangs compete for
0:20:22 > 0:20:30control in a city of just 100,000 people. Compton's notorious street
0:20:30 > 0:20:37gangs, the Compton Crips, the Gloves and one other, were formed in the
0:20:37 > 0:20:411960s. Their clothes, their tattoos, even their jewellery Walmart which
0:20:41 > 0:20:47gang they belonged to. -- all marked. Wearing the wrong colour
0:20:47 > 0:20:54shirt could have, and still could, get you killed. Today, Compton is on
0:20:54 > 0:21:04the up. Compton's youthful mayor, Asia Brown, has made it her mission
0:21:04 > 0:21:12to transform the image and the economy of the city. In 2013, early
0:21:12 > 0:21:18into her first term, and after 16 killings in just four months, Asia
0:21:18 > 0:21:29Brown decided to hold a crisis meeting. She put a call out to the
0:21:29 > 0:21:36Gloves and Crips to get a truce. It's my community, I'm not afraid of
0:21:36 > 0:21:38my own people, and it was interesting to hear from them, but
0:21:38 > 0:21:45they are very pragmatic, they talk about the need for opportunities
0:21:45 > 0:21:48they can access, they talked about the barriers to their employment
0:21:48 > 0:21:52because of criminal records, but I told them, it's not about just what
0:21:52 > 0:21:56can I do for you, I told them I am willing to work with you if you are
0:21:56 > 0:22:01going to make a commitment.Don and Fred are from rival gangs. Don is a
0:22:01 > 0:22:10Blood. Fred is a Crip. If you'd come across Dom in a street ten to 15
0:22:10 > 0:22:17years ago...It would be no problem. There would have been a fight
0:22:17 > 0:22:25stabbing or shooting upbecause you were in rival gangs?Like I said, I
0:22:25 > 0:22:30was young, and I didn't have a understanding of life, all I cared
0:22:30 > 0:22:35about was my gang and the rebels to defend us.You would have hurt him.
0:22:35 > 0:22:46Yes.Yeah.He would have tried.Will is also a former gang member. He
0:22:46 > 0:22:51served 12 years in prison for a string of offences, including
0:22:51 > 0:22:56carjacking at gun possession. In December 1999, he decided to turn
0:22:56 > 0:22:59his life arounda of kids are looking for something when they join
0:22:59 > 0:23:04gangs. They are looking for something. There was something
0:23:04 > 0:23:11missing. The gangs cater to those things that are missing.This was
0:23:11 > 0:23:14almost a shared store between two rival gangs, so a lot of people lost
0:23:14 > 0:23:20their lives up here, a lot of shootings and drive-bys.He now
0:23:20 > 0:23:24spends most of his nights on the streets, trying to stop conflicts
0:23:24 > 0:23:30from happening or getting out of control.We are going corner to
0:23:30 > 0:23:35corner, communicating with those that are always out.For the mayor,
0:23:35 > 0:23:41it's also personal. Down this quite street is Asia's former family home.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44My mother was a registered nurse and worked overnight, and her schedule
0:23:44 > 0:23:50was a bit different, and there was a home intrusion and somebody raped
0:23:50 > 0:23:58and murdered her. The loss of the light is for a lifetime, and there
0:23:58 > 0:24:01are holes that are created that can never be filled and it gives me a
0:24:01 > 0:24:06level of compassion, respect and even inside and perspective into
0:24:06 > 0:24:14what most people are dealing with. The mayor's story isn't uncommon.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17There is a level of post-traumatic stress in this town that comes from
0:24:17 > 0:24:22decades of extreme violence. But maybe it's that shared experience
0:24:22 > 0:24:27that could also drive people to end the violence.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31And a reminder you can catch the full version of that half hour
0:24:31 > 0:24:38documentary on Our World here on the BBC this weekend.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42On days like today, which seem pretty bleak in the United States
0:24:42 > 0:24:44after the Florida shooting, it's worth remembering that things can
0:24:44 > 0:24:49get done, and Compton is a symbol of that, when the mayor and Sheriff and
0:24:49 > 0:24:52former gang members all decided to work together. They can reduce the
0:24:52 > 0:24:58levels of homicide in the city, and it's extraordinary to see Compton, a
0:24:58 > 0:25:01town I walked around feeling totally safe in in the middle of the
0:25:01 > 0:25:06daytime, becoming normal place where people can recover from a level of
0:25:06 > 0:25:10post-traumatic stress that they have suffered for the last few decades,
0:25:10 > 0:25:13and they have done it by coming together, working together and
0:25:13 > 0:25:19putting aside their differences. It's good to see that happening
0:25:19 > 0:25:20Now, are these the world's worst burglars?
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Shanghai Police have released this footage of two would-be burglars
0:25:23 > 0:25:26in China attempting to break into a shop in the early hours
0:25:26 > 0:25:29of Wednesday morning.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32As you can see, it's the accomplice who comes off worse.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36This is Beyond 100 Days from the BBC.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40Coming up for viewers on the BBC News Channel

0:25:46 > 0:25:49What should we avoid eating?
0:25:49 > 0:25:52And stock market volatility is back.
0:25:52 > 0:25:53We'll be asking financial guru
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Alvin Hall how best to look after our money.
0:25:55 > 0:26:00That's still to come.
0:26:10 > 0:26:13it may have been milder, sunnier for many today, but they have still been
0:26:13 > 0:26:18some snow showers around, especially in north-west Scotland. Let's focus
0:26:18 > 0:26:23on the sunshine in Norfolk this afternoon, a gorgeous afternoon.
0:26:23 > 0:26:27England and Wales saw a few showers, wintry into Northern Ireland.
0:26:27 > 0:26:32Speckled cloud in the satellite picture, indicating showers, but
0:26:32 > 0:26:35bigger cloud in north-west Scotland with frequent, heavy, wintry
0:26:35 > 0:26:38showers. They continue overnight and there will be further snow in the
0:26:38 > 0:26:45hills. Blizzard is developing in the wind. A few showers on the western
0:26:45 > 0:26:52side of Northern Ireland. Elsewhere, largely dry and clear, with a
0:26:52 > 0:26:59widespread frost in the morning. Still picking up a few showers on
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Friday, particularly in north-west Scotland during the day, so further
0:27:02 > 0:27:07snow showers. One or two showers for more than Ireland, Wales, England,
0:27:07 > 0:27:13but many will be dry. Morning sunshine and cloud increasing to the
0:27:13 > 0:27:17west of the UK, leaving the best of the afternoon sunny spells in
0:27:17 > 0:27:21eastern areas and temperatures fairly respectable, around seven to
0:27:21 > 0:27:26ten Celsius, hire the further south you are. Friday night and Saturday
0:27:26 > 0:27:31morning, we are going to bring some outbreaks of rain, sleet and hill
0:27:31 > 0:27:34snow across parts of Northern Ireland, Scotland and northern
0:27:34 > 0:27:37England, running into northern Wales, but the system weakening as
0:27:37 > 0:27:43it heads south on Saturday morning. More cloud around, temperatures as
0:27:43 > 0:27:49low as this, but perhaps some fog patches on Saturday morning, dense
0:27:49 > 0:27:53in one or two spots. Overall, the weather pattern hasn't changed much
0:27:53 > 0:27:57for the first part of the weekend. Starting with more cloud around as
0:27:57 > 0:28:04northern parts. A few showers, wintry on hills, and the best sunny
0:28:04 > 0:28:08spells in southern areas, but many of us will see sunshine at some
0:28:08 > 0:28:14stage on Saturday, and temperatures at six to 9 degrees foremost, maybe
0:28:14 > 0:28:19ten or 11 in the mildest spots. More cloud on Sunday, especially across
0:28:19 > 0:28:22northern and western areas of the UK, leaving central and eastern with
0:28:22 > 0:28:27the best sunny spells. Where you have got the cloud, dampest Risley,
0:28:27 > 0:28:34but it's a bit milder on Sunday. -- damp and drizzly.
0:30:09 > 0:30:12This is Beyond 100 Days with me, Katty Kay, in Washington.
0:30:12 > 0:30:18Our top stories...
0:30:18 > 0:30:20President Trump says making schools safer is a key priority as 17
0:30:20 > 0:30:23people are shot dead at a school in florida.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Democratic Senator Chris Murphy told this programme...
0:30:25 > 0:30:31Schools will only be made safer fresh Richter- legislation. -- be
0:30:31 > 0:30:38made safer through further gun legislation.
0:30:38 > 0:30:43This is something exclusive to the United States.And in the last half
0:30:43 > 0:30:48an hour, the suspected gunman appearing in court on murder
0:30:48 > 0:30:50charges.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53We'll have the latest from south Florida in a moment.
0:30:53 > 0:30:55Also coming up in the next half hour...
0:30:55 > 0:30:57The ultra-processed, mass-produced foods reportedly linked to cancer.
0:30:57 > 0:30:59We have the findings of a new study.
0:30:59 > 0:31:03Angelic eyesore or saintly sculpture?
0:31:03 > 0:31:05One of Britain's most divisive landmarks turns 20,
0:31:05 > 0:31:07but is everyone celebrating?
0:31:07 > 0:31:12Let us know your thoughts by using the hashtag...
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Returning to our main story - the shooting at a high school
0:31:23 > 0:31:25in Parkland, Florida which has left 17 people dead.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Nikolas Cruz, a 19-year-old who had been expelled from the school, has
0:31:28 > 0:31:34been charged with multiple counts of premeditated murder.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37He has appeared in court and the judge ordered he remain in jail
0:31:37 > 0:31:41without Dale. -- without bail.
0:31:41 > 0:31:44For more, we can cross to the BBC's Nada Tawfik in Parkland.
0:31:44 > 0:31:50What is the latest? The authorities here are starting to
0:31:50 > 0:31:56build a profile of the shooter. It is now known that the FBI had him on
0:31:56 > 0:32:01the radar as early as September. On social media, on YouTube video, you
0:32:01 > 0:32:08declare that he would be a school shooter. The FBI says they conducted
0:32:08 > 0:32:11an investigation but were unable to identify the person at the time, so
0:32:11 > 0:32:16of course questions are being raised about if there were opportunities
0:32:16 > 0:32:20missed to prevent this tragedy. I spoke to some students here who said
0:32:20 > 0:32:22he was someone deeply troubled and would speak about guns and killing
0:32:22 > 0:32:28animals. Authorities here have also talked about the Sheriff. Spoken
0:32:28 > 0:32:33about how administrators are warned teachers about this individual.
0:32:33 > 0:32:36Again, questions being raised about what our virginity is where missed
0:32:36 > 0:32:44to prevent this. -- about what opportunities were missed.
0:32:44 > 0:32:51There are questions about what more can be done to prevent shooters
0:32:51 > 0:32:54walking on campuses with these deadly weapons.
0:32:54 > 0:32:57How does the US compare with other countries when it
0:32:57 > 0:33:00comes to gun killings as a percentage of homicides?
0:33:00 > 0:33:03In the US, it's 64%.
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Compare that to Canada, where firearms laws are much tougher,
0:33:05 > 0:33:12and that figure drops by more than half - to 30%.
0:33:12 > 0:33:13Australia, 13%.
0:33:13 > 0:33:16Meanwhile, in England and Wales, where citizens are not allowed
0:33:16 > 0:33:18to carry any sort of gun, it's just 4.5%.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21Moving on to the top 10 countries in which civilians own guns,
0:33:21 > 0:33:22it's no surprise where comes out top.
0:33:22 > 0:33:28In America, nearly nine out of 10 people own a firearm.
0:33:29 > 0:33:36With me now is in North America editor, Jon Sopel. Is this really
0:33:36 > 0:33:39the issue? The president talked about mental health, security or in
0:33:39 > 0:33:45schools. In the end, isn't the issue of gun ownership in the country?My
0:33:45 > 0:33:49guess would be that incidence of mental illness is the same in the UK
0:33:49 > 0:33:57as the US. The same as France as the US, the same in the Netherlands. So
0:33:57 > 0:34:01it can't be that that explains why there are so many more gun deaths in
0:34:01 > 0:34:04the United States of America than there are in any of those advanced
0:34:04 > 0:34:11industrial nations of Europe. The reason is guns. It is incorrigible
0:34:11 > 0:34:16that anyone could argue otherwise. There are other arguments about it.
0:34:16 > 0:34:18What measures can you do to make sure background checks are
0:34:18 > 0:34:22increased? The guns of the difference. Mental illness is not
0:34:22 > 0:34:28the problem unique to the US. The death toll from guns is unique to
0:34:28 > 0:34:32the United States of America.You know this country well. I know this
0:34:32 > 0:34:36is a problem other countries look at and they think, why can't America
0:34:36 > 0:34:40fix this? Everyone else seems to average is the rate of gun crime in
0:34:40 > 0:34:44their own countries. Why does America live with this? But as you
0:34:44 > 0:34:47know, it is incredibly difficult political issue to get members of
0:34:47 > 0:34:52Congress to budge on.Why? It's difficult to get them to budge on it
0:34:52 > 0:35:03because largely, there are enough a lot of gun-owners revoked. -- who
0:35:03 > 0:35:10vote. A lot of people in America own guns and a body called the National
0:35:10 > 0:35:12Rifle Association is immensely poor. Even though you have opinion polls
0:35:12 > 0:35:17that say, you know what, a majority of us favoured tighter gun laws, the
0:35:17 > 0:35:23NRA is so powerful and affecting the way that senators vote, they tend
0:35:23 > 0:35:28not to vote for change. If you look back to Sandy Hook, Barack Obama, a
0:35:28 > 0:35:36Democratic majority in the house did not get gun reform measures through.
0:35:36 > 0:35:44Also, it is immensely complicated. You can say, let's ban the AR-15
0:35:44 > 0:35:51assault rifle. How do you ban what is deemed a semiautomatic? The
0:35:51 > 0:35:56Clinton Administration tried it. But it was deemed unworkable because
0:35:56 > 0:36:00there are so many variations and nuances. You can say that there is a
0:36:00 > 0:36:04total ban on handguns, like they did in the UK, but to try and change it
0:36:04 > 0:36:09by five degrees or ten degrees is incredibly, located.And millions of
0:36:09 > 0:36:14guns in society that you would have to bring back into the authority's
0:36:14 > 0:36:17control as well. Jon Sopel, thank you very much for joining the
0:36:17 > 0:36:19programme.
0:36:19 > 0:36:23Many of you watching in the US, the UK or Europe may just have
0:36:23 > 0:36:26eaten your lunch or evening meal - did you go for something convenient
0:36:26 > 0:36:28- a microwave meal, perhaps - something savoury rounded off
0:36:28 > 0:36:29by a cake?
0:36:29 > 0:36:32Well, our next item might just leave a bitter taste in your mouth.
0:36:32 > 0:36:34According to research out today, eating ultra-processed foods
0:36:34 > 0:36:37could be linked to an increased risk of cancer.
0:36:37 > 0:36:39Here's our health correspondent James Gallagher with the details.
0:36:39 > 0:36:42Pizza and fizzy drinks are ultra-processed foods,
0:36:42 > 0:36:52but so too are bread and breakfast cereals.
0:36:52 > 0:36:54They are some of the nation's favourite foods but new concerns
0:36:54 > 0:36:56have been raised by French scientists.
0:36:56 > 0:36:59They think the way these foods are produced or packaged may be
0:36:59 > 0:37:00raising the risk of cancer.
0:37:00 > 0:37:03It may come as a surprise but around half the foods we eat
0:37:03 > 0:37:04are classed as ultra-processed.
0:37:04 > 0:37:07That generally means they're made in a factory with a huge list
0:37:07 > 0:37:09of ingredients down the side of the packet.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13We know they're bad for our waistlines, but could they be bad
0:37:13 > 0:37:16for our health in other ways too?
0:37:16 > 0:37:21The French study looked at nearly 105,000 people.
0:37:21 > 0:37:27They were quite young, with an average age of 43.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29The results showed a 10% increase in ultra-processed foods was linked
0:37:29 > 0:37:32to a 12% increase in the risk of cancer, and an 11% increase
0:37:32 > 0:37:33in breast cancer risk.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35But critics say the term "ultra-processed" encompasses
0:37:35 > 0:37:38so many foods it's hard to work out what's really going
0:37:38 > 0:37:39on, and while this research
0:37:39 > 0:37:41has found hints of a link with cancer,
0:37:41 > 0:37:50it's not definitive.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52So do we need to bin the bread?
0:37:52 > 0:37:53We should not be panicking.
0:37:53 > 0:37:56I think as all of us know, highly processed foods like these -
0:37:56 > 0:37:59so things like pizza, crisps and chips are not
0:37:59 > 0:38:05things we should be making the main focus of our diet.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08This study adds to our understanding but it's not saying anything new,
0:38:08 > 0:38:10and it certainly isn't saying we need to throw these foods
0:38:10 > 0:38:11away out of our cupboards.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14Gorging on huge amounts of processed food will make us fat
0:38:14 > 0:38:16and being overweight is the biggest preventable cause of
0:38:16 > 0:38:17cancer after smoking.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20For health experts, the study is a timely reminder
0:38:20 > 0:38:24we all need to improve our diets.
0:38:24 > 0:38:29On average, our diets are unhealthy in this country.
0:38:29 > 0:38:33We all, on average, need to take steps to improve our diet so, yes,
0:38:33 > 0:38:36take the results of this study seriously and make changes.
0:38:36 > 0:38:38The Saxtons from Doncaster say processed food is
0:38:38 > 0:38:45a fact of family life.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47You think, well, how can you avoid buying ultra-processed
0:38:47 > 0:38:50food unless you grow everything yourself basically.
0:38:50 > 0:38:52I think evening is not as difficult as the mornings, I think,
0:38:52 > 0:38:53in terms of breakfasts.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56That's very difficult to rule out cereal and toast on a day-to-day
0:38:56 > 0:38:59basis when you're doing the school run and rushing to get out the door.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Any dangers lurking in these foods are continuing to be investigated,
0:39:02 > 0:39:04but eating less of this and more of this is clearly
0:39:04 > 0:39:06good for your health.
0:39:06 > 0:39:12James Gallagher, BBC News.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15But the doughnuts look so good!
0:39:15 > 0:39:17Let's get the thoughts of Amanda Ersell, who is a nutritionist.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19She's in our London studio.
0:39:19 > 0:39:23Amanda Sacker, do you think people even know what constitutes
0:39:23 > 0:39:29ultra-processed or highly processed food?That's a very good point. Very
0:39:29 > 0:39:33often, people don't stop to think about it, because they are so much
0:39:33 > 0:39:39part of our I trained as a dietician many years ago. I then, we didn't
0:39:39 > 0:39:47have the bread and depth of processed foods then that we have no
0:39:47 > 0:39:50that are now part of our lives. I think people don't stop to think
0:39:50 > 0:39:54about it. But if they did stop for a few minutes, they could work out the
0:39:54 > 0:39:57ones that have a long list of ingredients on the side of the pack
0:39:57 > 0:40:04and be much resemblance to the original. For example, if you had
0:40:04 > 0:40:09sweetcorn as, macabre, you could have it like that, but if you
0:40:09 > 0:40:13processed it, it would be in a can, you could process it more and put it
0:40:13 > 0:40:16in a ready meal. If you thought about it, you can work out what is
0:40:16 > 0:40:22processed. But that family made a very interesting point. It is very
0:40:22 > 0:40:27difficult to get them out of our lifestyles because the convenient.I
0:40:27 > 0:40:30have four kids and in the morning, we have cereal and toast. It is
0:40:30 > 0:40:35probably very bad for us. When you look at that study, to what extent
0:40:35 > 0:40:38is it reliable? How do we know whether the people eating the
0:40:38 > 0:40:43ultra-processed foods are also the same people who might have a
0:40:43 > 0:40:47tendency to drink more, smokeless or have other bad habits?That is a
0:40:47 > 0:40:55very good point. Scientists say we need more studies to see these
0:40:55 > 0:40:58suggested links are rare in reality. We do to remember that people's
0:40:58 > 0:41:04diets were only taken over a two-day period. That is a small snapshot of
0:41:04 > 0:41:07what we actually do. A two-day period and then a five-year
0:41:07 > 0:41:12follow-up. Although they take into account things like smoking, weight
0:41:12 > 0:41:17and exercise, and whether the women were on the contraceptive pill or
0:41:17 > 0:41:21not, they took that in account and made statistical allowances but they
0:41:21 > 0:41:24can't rule out that some of us did not actually have an impact as well.
0:41:24 > 0:41:29What it comes back to, and it is really boring, because as a
0:41:29 > 0:41:34nutritionist, I have been saying this for many years, it comes back
0:41:34 > 0:41:37to a healthy lifestyle and are generally healthy diet. There is
0:41:37 > 0:41:40absolutely no reason why you can't have peace in our bed. One of those
0:41:40 > 0:41:44nice doughnuts that you said earlier lit tasty! But it is keeping it in
0:41:44 > 0:41:51proportion and perspective.Too busy families looking at this programme,
0:41:51 > 0:41:55what is one thing they could do that is realistic and doable that would
0:41:55 > 0:42:00improve their diet and health?You can switch the very processed
0:42:00 > 0:42:03breakfast serials to porridge. You can do that night before. That is a
0:42:03 > 0:42:06quick and simple switch that would potentially cut down on salt, sugar
0:42:06 > 0:42:14and improve fibre intake. There we are. One quick swap.I love that. I
0:42:14 > 0:42:17eat porridge every morning. Amanda, thank you for joining us on breaking
0:42:17 > 0:42:21that down for us.
0:42:21 > 0:42:23Choose France - that's the clarion call
0:42:23 > 0:42:25from the French President, Emmanuel Macron, as he tries
0:42:25 > 0:42:28to change international perceptions of doing business in the country.
0:42:28 > 0:42:29He's been wooing business leaders at Versailles,
0:42:29 > 0:42:34as our Paris correspondent Lucy Williamson reports.
0:42:34 > 0:42:36Maybe you're thinking that France and business don't
0:42:36 > 0:42:37really go together.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40So what if we take two minutes to tackle a few
0:42:40 > 0:42:42little misconceptions?
0:42:42 > 0:42:45France has has been telling the world it's open for business.
0:42:45 > 0:42:48Since Emmanuel Macron came to power, it's loosened labour rules and cut
0:42:48 > 0:42:49corporate and wealth taxes.
0:42:49 > 0:42:51Welcome to France, where every week, 21 foreign companies decide
0:42:51 > 0:42:54to make investments.
0:42:54 > 0:42:58And they don't just come to hire French people who spend their time
0:42:58 > 0:43:00on holidays drinking cocktails.
0:43:00 > 0:43:05Protection for workers has been core policy here for decades,
0:43:05 > 0:43:09but President Macron has tried to shake France's image as a country
0:43:09 > 0:43:13of public strikes, high taxes and rigid bureaucracy.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16The problem for the last, I would say, 30 years
0:43:16 > 0:43:23is that we have insisted maybe too much on solidarity,
0:43:23 > 0:43:27and if you want to be able to fund solidarity and to help the poorest
0:43:27 > 0:43:30people of the nation, you need to have competitiveness,
0:43:30 > 0:43:33you need to have strong private companies, you need to be able
0:43:33 > 0:43:34to create jobs.
0:43:34 > 0:43:35Mr President, it's great to see you.
0:43:35 > 0:43:37How have you been?
0:43:37 > 0:43:41Last month, Mr Macron invited 140 business leaders to Versailles
0:43:41 > 0:43:43for a speed networking session.
0:43:43 > 0:43:47You're doing a great job.
0:43:47 > 0:43:49Foreign companies invested $50 billion in France last year,
0:43:49 > 0:43:53a rise of almost 80%.
0:43:53 > 0:43:57Much of that was committed before Mr Macron's election,
0:43:57 > 0:44:00but the American Chamber of Commerce here also found that three-quarters
0:44:00 > 0:44:02of their investors, more than ever before,
0:44:02 > 0:44:07thought the business environment would improve.
0:44:07 > 0:44:11Google recently announced it was expanding its French
0:44:11 > 0:44:15workforce and opening a new research centre for artificial intelligence.
0:44:15 > 0:44:19There is a little bit of a French paradox.
0:44:19 > 0:44:23The French paradox is that 80% of the French users use the internet
0:44:23 > 0:44:26every day, but only 16% of the company sell online,
0:44:26 > 0:44:28so this is really the paradox that we are talking
0:44:28 > 0:44:31about and the massive opportunity.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34France's traditional economic model has left pockets of potential to be
0:44:34 > 0:44:37tapped by future investors - what one economist called
0:44:37 > 0:44:39"low hanging fruit".
0:44:39 > 0:44:48And then there's Brexit.
0:44:48 > 0:44:51France is keen to attract financial firms from the City of London
0:44:51 > 0:44:54after Brexit and bring them here to its main business district
0:44:54 > 0:44:55at La Defense.
0:44:55 > 0:44:57It's offering more international schools, tax cuts and the lure
0:44:58 > 0:45:00of a Parisian lifestyle.
0:45:00 > 0:45:04But France is still seen to be an expensive place to do business
0:45:04 > 0:45:08and there's stiff competition from Dublin and Frankfurt.
0:45:08 > 0:45:10But business leaders say President Macron's approach has
0:45:10 > 0:45:13sparked new confidence here.
0:45:13 > 0:45:18After all, as France's business agency puts it,
0:45:18 > 0:45:25entrepreneur is a French word to begin with.
0:45:25 > 0:45:34Of course, if you have to move to France, you will not be and resist
0:45:34 > 0:45:40those nice croissants, which as we have held, is a bad idea.
0:45:40 > 0:45:49In other news from around the world...
0:45:49 > 0:45:52Still to come - we'll be getting advice from a financial
0:45:52 > 0:45:54guru about how we should protect our finances ,
0:45:54 > 0:45:56when stock markets take a roller-coaster ride.
0:45:56 > 0:45:58Former football coach Barry Bennell has been found guilty of more
0:45:58 > 0:46:02charges of sexual abuse of boys who were in his care. The BBC's Danny
0:46:02 > 0:46:06Savage has this for us. I was abused by Barry Bennell as a
0:46:06 > 0:46:20child.I am Stephen Walters. I was abused by Barry Bennell.
0:46:23 > 0:46:27Three of the 12 victims in this case, damaged by controlling
0:46:27 > 0:46:31paedophile Barry Bennell.No defiant and weaving anonymity to shed light
0:46:31 > 0:46:38on the shocking childhood experiences.For decades, we held
0:46:38 > 0:46:41our silence, just like our abuser told us to. For decades, we lived in
0:46:41 > 0:46:43fear
0:46:43 > 0:46:47told us to. For decades, we lived in fear. We might be grown men stood in
0:46:47 > 0:46:54front of you know, but we were once children.Their remorseless abuser,
0:46:54 > 0:46:57now 64, shook his head and laughed as the jury returned a last guilty
0:46:57 > 0:47:02verdicts today. One of football's reading youth coaches, Barry Bennell
0:47:02 > 0:47:06what with Manchester City and Crewe Alexandra. For him, it was covered
0:47:06 > 0:47:09to get close to young boys and abuse them. A child molester on an
0:47:09 > 0:47:15industrial scale so he was described at the trial. Andy Woodward was also
0:47:15 > 0:47:24abused by Barry Bennell. When he went public, other victims broke the
0:47:24 > 0:47:26silence. If other victims haven't come forward, what would your
0:47:26 > 0:47:34message to them?I believe there is other victims. It is up to them
0:47:34 > 0:47:36whether they feel they are strong enough to come forward but I hope
0:47:36 > 0:47:39this has given them some more courage that justice has been served
0:47:39 > 0:47:45today.It's understood that more than 80 other men have come forward
0:47:45 > 0:47:48to say Barry Bennell abused them. This prolific paedophile will be
0:47:48 > 0:47:52sentenced next week.
0:48:00 > 0:48:01You're watching Beyond 100 Days.
0:48:01 > 0:48:02Financial markets around the world
0:48:02 > 0:48:05are creeping up as investors look for bargains after the big
0:48:05 > 0:48:06sell offs of last week.
0:48:06 > 0:48:13But many economists agree we are heading into a period
0:48:13 > 0:48:15of volatility in stock markets, so how should we protect ourselves
0:48:16 > 0:48:17against those highs and lows?
0:48:17 > 0:48:19Alvin Hall is an author, broadcaster and financial guru.
0:48:19 > 0:48:21He joins now from our New York studio.
0:48:21 > 0:48:25Before we get to what we should be doing with whatever little savings
0:48:25 > 0:48:29we have, are we going to have a continued need of volatility and is
0:48:29 > 0:48:34this the new normal for 2018? I suspect it's going to be. There are
0:48:34 > 0:48:39a lot of online is out there. And keep to the increased use of
0:48:39 > 0:48:48algorithms and High Speed 3 trading. -- and he to the increased use of
0:48:48 > 0:48:56spending.Interest rates going up, businesses face new challenges. That
0:48:56 > 0:49:01means the market will reflect those challenges.The algorithms and
0:49:01 > 0:49:05robots doing the buying and selling, are they just exacerbating
0:49:05 > 0:49:09underlying macro trends or is it that we can no longer look at the
0:49:09 > 0:49:14real economy for what the stock market will do?Brilliant question.
0:49:14 > 0:49:19It is an interesting dance. Those algorithms look at certain factors
0:49:19 > 0:49:25and reflect the biases and beliefs of the creators of the algorithms.
0:49:25 > 0:49:28If the market goes to a certain number, and Michael even lower than
0:49:28 > 0:49:35the algorithms begins to sell. -- it might go even lower and the
0:49:35 > 0:49:45algorithm begins to sell. The slightest sign of wage increases,
0:49:45 > 0:49:49the algorithm changes and they come up with the investment strategy.I
0:49:49 > 0:49:53have two kids in US colleges. I have no disposable income! M as you have
0:49:53 > 0:49:57more. To those around the world as being how they can protect
0:49:57 > 0:50:04themselves against highs and lows, what is it you're doing?My advice
0:50:04 > 0:50:08first is look at your time horizon. If you have money in the market, now
0:50:08 > 0:50:12is the time to plot out a hat. A friend of mine yesterday that I have
0:50:12 > 0:50:21lunch with, his son is beginning college. They put money aside, sold
0:50:21 > 0:50:23stocks and put it into safer security so that they have the next
0:50:23 > 0:50:28two years coming. The other thing you have to look at is the
0:50:28 > 0:50:32composition of your portfolio. In my case, I have a lot of high
0:50:32 > 0:50:40volatility stocks. Volatility is called stocks picked up -- stocks
0:50:40 > 0:50:45beta. As the market goes down, they drop a lot more. What I have been
0:50:45 > 0:50:48doing is trimming back on some of those stocks because I am
0:50:48 > 0:50:55uncomfortable. The bottom line is whether the volatility rises you
0:50:55 > 0:51:00sleepless nights. If so, you need to start trimming back on the stocks
0:51:00 > 0:51:04that cause your portfolio to be volatile.Lots of things cosmic
0:51:04 > 0:51:09little Smyczek smack is your advice applicable to people watching around
0:51:09 > 0:51:15the world? -- lots of things cause me sleepless nights. Is your advice
0:51:15 > 0:51:21applicable to people around the world?These things are connected
0:51:21 > 0:51:24but you have to look at your particular market because there
0:51:24 > 0:51:27might be some unique things about your market which causes it not to
0:51:27 > 0:51:34respond the same way in the US. Overall, I would say, yes, all these
0:51:34 > 0:51:38other economies would get a call. They all tend to move in sequence
0:51:38 > 0:51:43these days. So the advice is applicable to many people who are
0:51:43 > 0:51:47looking at what they need to do with their money today and in the next
0:51:47 > 0:51:58two, 510 years.OK, thank you very much for joining us.-- two, five or
0:51:58 > 0:52:06ten years.That was the cleanest advice I have had to do with my
0:52:06 > 0:52:11stocks. Thank you.
0:52:11 > 0:52:13Love them or loathe them - some landmarks aren't
0:52:13 > 0:52:14to everyone's taste.
0:52:14 > 0:52:16Mount Rushmore here in the US most definitely divides opinion,
0:52:16 > 0:52:18as does London's iconic glass tower, the Shard.
0:52:18 > 0:52:21Even the Eiffel Tower put out some Parisians when it was first built.
0:52:21 > 0:52:23Now, one of Britain's most popular landmarks -
0:52:23 > 0:52:26once described by one art critic as a "monstrosity" -
0:52:26 > 0:52:28See what you make of it.
0:52:28 > 0:52:31Here's Fiona Trott.
0:52:31 > 0:52:39The unmistakable Angel of the North, towering over the A1 in Gateshead.
0:52:39 > 0:52:48It's one of the most photographed landmarks in Britain and viewed
0:52:48 > 0:52:49by 33 million people every year.
0:52:49 > 0:52:50I've grown to love it.
0:52:50 > 0:52:53I think people do have a very warm feeling about it.
0:52:53 > 0:52:56It's an artwork that doesn't stand on its own as an artwork
0:52:56 > 0:53:00in a gallery but it's very much part of everyday life, in Gateshead
0:53:00 > 0:53:05and in this region.
0:53:05 > 0:53:08In the middle of the night 20 years ago, the Angel of the North
0:53:08 > 0:53:10made its slow journey up the A1.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12It was built in Hartlepool.
0:53:12 > 0:53:14Its body as long as four double-decker buses.
0:53:14 > 0:53:18Its wings wider than a Boeing 757.
0:53:18 > 0:53:21People gathered at the former colliery site in Gateshead
0:53:21 > 0:53:22to watch it put in place.
0:53:22 > 0:53:23An historic moment.
0:53:23 > 0:53:25At first, people were sceptical.
0:53:25 > 0:53:26Why an angel?
0:53:26 > 0:53:30Why so monumental?
0:53:30 > 0:53:35But soon they claimed it as their own, and that's exactly
0:53:35 > 0:53:40what the sculptor wanted.
0:53:40 > 0:53:43The fact is it's not my Angel, it is the Angel of the North
0:53:43 > 0:53:46and that means a lot to me.
0:53:46 > 0:53:51I had an idea, but it was realised, it was made by the people
0:53:51 > 0:53:53of the north-east and it comes from that extraordinary
0:53:53 > 0:53:55story of the relationship between coalmining, iron,
0:53:55 > 0:54:02engineering and that history of the Industrial Revolution.
0:54:02 > 0:54:04For many, it's a special place.
0:54:04 > 0:54:07There have even been marriage proposals here.
0:54:07 > 0:54:10Local people say it's put the north-east on the map.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13Northumberland is fabulous and the Angel I think depicts just
0:54:13 > 0:54:16how good we are up here.
0:54:16 > 0:54:21Well, I'm up from London and I just wanted to see it for myself.
0:54:21 > 0:54:23I've heard about it before and, yeah, it's pretty
0:54:23 > 0:54:28impressive if you ask me.
0:54:28 > 0:54:32I think I didn't like it in the beginning, I think a lot
0:54:32 > 0:54:34of people would say that, but it's really grown
0:54:34 > 0:54:38on me and now I love it.
0:54:38 > 0:54:42On its 20th birthday, the Angel is preparing for a medical.
0:54:42 > 0:54:45Like all structures, its joints need to be checked
