0:00:40 > 0:00:42We will, er, probably get together in the not-too-distant
0:00:42 > 0:00:44future, so that we can discuss, er, arms.
0:00:44 > 0:00:49We can discuss the arms race.

0:01:30 > 0:01:31I'm Katty Kay, in New York.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33And Christian Fraser is in London.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35From Berlin to Washington to London, politicians are expressing serious
0:01:35 > 0:01:40concern about Facebook and its lax approach to users' data.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Facebook's share price fell again today, under mounting
0:01:42 > 0:01:48scrutiny of its role in recent election campaigns.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51The UK's Information Commissioner is applying for a warrant to search
0:01:51 > 0:01:53the offices of the London-based political consulting firm
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Cambridge Analytica - which is accused of harvesting
0:01:55 > 0:01:57the personal data of 50 million Facebook members,
0:01:57 > 0:02:03to influence the US presidential election in 2016.
0:02:03 > 0:02:09Here's our business editor, Simon Jack.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12In the information age, personal data is the new currency,
0:02:12 > 0:02:20and we spend it liberally on social media platforms.
0:02:20 > 0:02:23How old we are, whether we are in a relationship,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25what our political leanings are - this could be gathered and used.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28Cambridge Analytica is a company which does exactly that,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31and it's at the centre of a storm that has rocked some of the biggest
0:02:31 > 0:02:32companies in the world.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34It started with an app, which invited Facebook users
0:02:34 > 0:02:36to do a personality test.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38270,000 downloaded it.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41It collected personal information on them, their friends,
0:02:41 > 0:02:43their friends' friends, and so on, until it had info
0:02:44 > 0:02:46on 50 million users.
0:02:46 > 0:02:50But that data was passed to Cambridge Analytica,
0:02:50 > 0:02:55which allegedly used it to influence the Presidential election in the US,
0:02:55 > 0:02:58using highly targeted messages - a charge denied by the company.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00The UK's data watchdog said she'd had concerns
0:03:00 > 0:03:02about the company for some time.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04These allegations are very serious.
0:03:04 > 0:03:11They came to the attention of our office some months ago and,
0:03:11 > 0:03:17on March 7th, I issued a demand for information to Cambridge.
0:03:17 > 0:03:25They did not comply with that, so now I am moving ahead to seek
0:03:25 > 0:03:28a warrant, so I can search premises and data.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Separately, Cambridge Analytica executives were secretly filmed
0:03:32 > 0:03:42by Channel 4 giving advice on how to influence politicians.
0:03:43 > 0:03:48Cambridge Analytica said it has been grossly misrespected.
0:03:48 > 0:03:53Whether this tiny consultancy was involved in influencing
0:03:53 > 0:03:56the US election, there is an old adage which says
0:03:56 > 0:04:01that if the services you're getting are free,
0:04:01 > 0:04:02then you are the product,
0:04:02 > 0:04:04served up to advertisers who are convinced that
0:04:04 > 0:04:06highly targeted messages - constructed around detailed personal
0:04:06 > 0:04:11information - really work.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Since the scandal broke, Facebook has seen £50 billion
0:04:13 > 0:04:15wiped off its value.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18And the pressure on the company was cranked up today,
0:04:18 > 0:04:20when the Federal Trade Commission announced it will investigate
0:04:20 > 0:04:22its handling of customer data.
0:04:22 > 0:04:27It has the power to levy enormous fines.
0:04:27 > 0:04:35Facebook denies any wrongdoing.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38So, could this be a moment of reckoning for the
0:04:38 > 0:04:39way our data is used?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41For the first time, things that people suspected
0:04:41 > 0:04:44have surfaced, thanks to the testimony of whistle-blowers.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Now we're finally seeing that the leaders of these companies
0:04:46 > 0:04:49are being called to testify in front of Parliament.
0:04:49 > 0:04:55Analysts are dumping their stock, as a vote of no confidence.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58This is a real moment that will incentivise change.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00The facts of our lives have value.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Mark Zuckerberg will have the chance to tell MPs how safely
0:05:03 > 0:05:04that information is kept.
0:05:04 > 0:05:11Simon Jack, BBC News.
0:05:11 > 0:05:19And we are getting news that the CEO of Cambridge, Alex next, has been
0:05:19 > 0:05:23suspended from his job. The company involved in that undercover
0:05:23 > 0:05:24operation.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Some members of the US Judiciary Committee are calling
0:05:26 > 0:05:28for Facebook's Chief Executive, Marc Zuckberg, to come and give
0:05:28 > 0:05:31evidence, but the Chairman isn't committing to make that call.
0:05:31 > 0:05:32Here is a flavour from Capitol Hill.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33I think...
0:05:33 > 0:05:42I think we have a problem out there.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44And what I said during the last hearing, that
0:05:44 > 0:05:45if the industry won't solve
0:05:45 > 0:05:48these kinds of problems themselves, then we'll have to solve
0:05:48 > 0:05:49them with legislation.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52It's very serious, what Facebook has done, and it violates privacy.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54We ought to be looking into it, but I can't promise
0:05:54 > 0:06:00a hearing at this point.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02For more on this unfolding story, we spoke a brief time ago
0:06:02 > 0:06:04with Democratic Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, who sits
0:06:04 > 0:06:09on the Judiciary Committee.
0:06:09 > 0:06:14Senator, I want to get your reaction to these latest revelations about
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Cambridge Analytica, Facebook and the role they both played in the
0:06:17 > 0:06:23Trump election.Well, they are two separate aspects. One is to make
0:06:23 > 0:06:30sure that Facebook lets its customers know who has been
0:06:30 > 0:06:36compromised. And what information of theirs has been demised. And I think
0:06:36 > 0:06:38they should explain to Congress and the American people how this was
0:06:38 > 0:06:42able to happen. So that we can be sure that it will not happen again,
0:06:42 > 0:06:47which is a goal that Facebook ought to share with all of us. The second,
0:06:47 > 0:06:52it is, located in to look into the role of Cambridge Analytica, both
0:06:52 > 0:06:57here in our election and potentially in your Brexit election and see to
0:06:57 > 0:07:03what extent they were involved in manipulating voters. That is going
0:07:03 > 0:07:05to be a touchy issue for our Republican colleagues because this
0:07:05 > 0:07:10was an effort paid for by one of the billionaires that is backing the
0:07:10 > 0:07:17Republican Party, the Mercer family. So not sure we are going to get a
0:07:17 > 0:07:24lot of bipartisanship on that.Back in October when the tech giants
0:07:24 > 0:07:27testified in the Senate, is said you wished they would stop making it
0:07:27 > 0:07:32like this was no big deal. From the reaction of Facebook over the last
0:07:32 > 0:07:38couple of days, they learn that lesson?I think so. When stock
0:07:38 > 0:07:42prices move, that tends to get Management's attention and I suspect
0:07:42 > 0:07:46a lot of their customers are personally concerned about exactly
0:07:46 > 0:07:51what was given to this Cambridge Analytica crowd and what became of
0:07:51 > 0:07:57the data. Once data gets out, it is really hard to draw it all back. And
0:07:57 > 0:08:01testing whether or not it is world away in various servers or it has
0:08:01 > 0:08:08been forwarded on to other entities, all that needs to be proven to
0:08:08 > 0:08:11customers and I hope Congress will take a strong interest in making
0:08:11 > 0:08:16sure all that happens.Senator, in the footage broadcast over here on
0:08:16 > 0:08:23Channel 4 last night, the CEO of Cambridge Analytica was offering
0:08:23 > 0:08:28services that go beyond data harvesting and some seem to amount
0:08:28 > 0:08:36to entrapment. He says the film grossly overstate that, what you
0:08:36 > 0:08:41say?He ought have the chance to, for US Congress and your Parliament
0:08:41 > 0:08:45and explain how those recordings of him misrepresent what he said on
0:08:45 > 0:08:51those recordings. He is entitled, I suppose, to that chance. I expect he
0:08:51 > 0:08:56would rather just say what he said is trudge away. I don't know we will
0:08:56 > 0:08:59see him appearing in Congress or Parliament. But I hope he has a
0:08:59 > 0:09:08chance to explain himself.They hold the data of 50 million Americans and
0:09:08 > 0:09:12Facebook sent in data analysts and lawyers into their offices last
0:09:12 > 0:09:17night. There were boxes removed from the office last Wednesday, there is
0:09:17 > 0:09:22concern on this side that may be the horse has already bolted. So when
0:09:22 > 0:09:24you get Facebook before the committee, will you be asking them
0:09:24 > 0:09:31what they were doing in Cambridge Analytica's office?Yes, I think we
0:09:31 > 0:09:36will have an obvious concern about understanding how this took place in
0:09:36 > 0:09:38the first instance, how they apparently sold this tens of
0:09:38 > 0:09:45millions of dollars of American data to this group. And second, how they
0:09:45 > 0:09:49are cleaning it up and how they can assure themselves that by going to
0:09:49 > 0:09:52the first stop of the data, Cambridge Analytica, they know that
0:09:52 > 0:10:00it is actually not available to Cambridge Analytica or two others in
0:10:00 > 0:10:03further Shell corporations or further servers. As you pointed out,
0:10:03 > 0:10:07once the horse has bolted, it can be very hard to get it back in the
0:10:07 > 0:10:15stall.Senator, it is very good to talk to you, thank you.My pleasure.
0:10:15 > 0:10:20I don't know if it will make it easier now for the US Senate to get
0:10:20 > 0:10:25hold of Alexander Nix and to ask questions, but he has now been
0:10:25 > 0:10:27suspended as CEO of Cambridge Analytica. A lot of people wanting
0:10:27 > 0:10:33to ask a lot of questions. And we mentioned Facebook's share price
0:10:33 > 0:10:36falling, that is happening to other tech and social media companies,
0:10:36 > 0:10:42Twitter share price is down. Snapchat is also down by 4%. So a
0:10:42 > 0:10:45lot of focus on social media and their role in elections and whether
0:10:45 > 0:10:50they are trustworthy. I was wondering, with the greatest
0:10:50 > 0:10:55respect, the senior investigators on the Senate committee, my concern has
0:10:55 > 0:11:00been since the Russians started -- Russian story starters, a lot of
0:11:00 > 0:11:03them are offered different generation and do not understand the
0:11:03 > 0:11:08story. I am looking at a message from the correspondent of the
0:11:08 > 0:11:11observer who has been digging into Cambridge Analytica and this goes
0:11:11 > 0:11:17back to May 2017. Why is the Information Commissioner, Elizabeth
0:11:17 > 0:11:21Denham, only now applying for a warrant to get into those officers?
0:11:21 > 0:11:26I did put that to Damian Collins yesterday, the chair of the
0:11:26 > 0:11:29committee investigating in the UK. And he says, the Information
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Commissioner is acting within the current legislation. She launches an
0:11:32 > 0:11:36enquiry and you can issue information notices and you can
0:11:36 > 0:11:42follow up and the warrant stage is not -- is the last stage. They are
0:11:42 > 0:11:45debating this Parliament and he accepts the Commission does not have
0:11:45 > 0:11:48enough powers and they have to give her those powers.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52Do they not have enough powers or do they not realise the gravity of the
0:11:52 > 0:11:54problem? This may change that.
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Donald Trump has called Vladimir Putin to congratulate him
0:11:56 > 0:11:58on his re-election, and says he would meet the Russian
0:11:58 > 0:12:01leader in the near future.
0:12:01 > 0:12:02Both actions are pretty controversial.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Other Western leaders have refrained from congratulating Mr Putin.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06And any meeting between Mr Trump and the Russian President
0:12:06 > 0:12:09in the midst of an investigation about Moscow's meddling
0:12:09 > 0:12:12in the US election is bound to raise eyebrows -
0:12:12 > 0:12:20which may be what Donald Trump likes.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23I had a, er, call with President Putin and congratulated him
0:12:23 > 0:12:27on the victory, his electoral victory.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30The, er, call had to do also with the fact that we will probably
0:12:30 > 0:12:33get together in the not-too-distant future so that we can discuss arms.
0:12:33 > 0:12:40We can discuss the arms race.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43As you know, he made a statement that being in an arms race
0:12:43 > 0:12:49is not a great thing, and it was right after the election,
0:12:49 > 0:12:52one of the first statements he made.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Mr Trump's decision to congratulate Mr Putin on an election race that
0:12:55 > 0:13:01had no real opposition has already met criticism in the US.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Senator John McCain - a known hawk in the Republican Party -
0:13:04 > 0:13:06released a statement saying, "An American president does
0:13:06 > 0:13:09not lead the Free World by congratulating dictators
0:13:09 > 0:13:13on winning sham elections."
0:13:13 > 0:13:16And Sarah Huckabee Sanders was giving the White House briefing and
0:13:16 > 0:13:21she was nearly as almost exclusively about this meeting and
0:13:21 > 0:13:24congratulating President Putin on the election and whether the was a
0:13:24 > 0:13:28good idea and whether Mr Trump belt it has been a free and fair
0:13:28 > 0:13:33election. This is what she said. Putin has been elected in their
0:13:33 > 0:13:36country and that is not something that we can dictate to them how they
0:13:36 > 0:13:39operate.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42We can only focus on the freeness and the fairness of our elections,
0:13:42 > 0:13:45and that's something that we 100% fully support and something
0:13:45 > 0:13:48that we are going to continue to protect, to make sure bad actors
0:13:48 > 0:13:53don't have the opportunity to impact them in any way.
0:13:53 > 0:13:57So no comments today to President Putin about the poisoning in
0:13:57 > 0:14:01Salisbury.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04But I am going to raise you with my Jean-Claude Juncker European
0:14:04 > 0:14:20Commission President statement. Similar reaction to John McCain from
0:14:20 > 0:14:24Guy Verhofstadt, very senior in the European Parliament. No, we don't
0:14:24 > 0:14:29have that. He says, this is not a time for rather congratulatory
0:14:29 > 0:14:32messages. There was concern in the European Parliament that it was a
0:14:32 > 0:14:36bit too if you sit. There it is.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45There will be a lot of people who feel that way. Quickly, what do you
0:14:45 > 0:14:48think about the fact that he did not raise the issue of poisoning? He
0:14:48 > 0:14:52seems to have gone out of his way not to offend anyone today.
0:14:52 > 0:14:56And did not raise the overshoot -- the issue of election interference
0:14:56 > 0:15:01in that call which will get criticism. This administration is
0:15:01 > 0:15:04not interested in pushing human rights democracy around the world,
0:15:04 > 0:15:08this is a transactional foreign policy of the Trump administration.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Talking of which, he also had another visitor in the White House
0:15:11 > 0:15:17today.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Mohammed bin Salman, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia,
0:15:19 > 0:15:21is Donald Trump's new good friend.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24The two men talked to reporters after meetings in the White House.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Bin Salman is on something of a sales pitch for the Kingdom -
0:15:27 > 0:15:29travelling across the country to woo US investors.
0:15:29 > 0:15:30But the relationship is not without controversy.
0:15:30 > 0:15:32A resolution condemning Saudi Arabia's involvement
0:15:32 > 0:15:36in the war in Yemen is due for a vote in the Senate today.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38For the White House, however, it seems having an ally
0:15:38 > 0:15:41in the region to stand against Iran outweighs the risks of closer
0:15:41 > 0:15:47ties with the country.
0:15:47 > 0:15:54The founder of the Arabia Foundation is joining us. You know Mohammed bin
0:15:54 > 0:15:58Salman and you have close relations with him, how does he want to
0:15:58 > 0:16:02improve Saudi Arabia's relationship with the Trump Administration, what
0:16:02 > 0:16:05does he want from that administration?Saudi Arabia always
0:16:05 > 0:16:10has have close relations with an American government. The Prince has
0:16:10 > 0:16:15worked hard to have closer than -- close relationships with the Trump
0:16:15 > 0:16:18Administration as previous monarchies have worked to have.
0:16:18 > 0:16:23Relations are very close. There is a meeting of minds on things like
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Iran, Saudi Arabia and the US and the White House are on the same
0:16:26 > 0:16:30page. And Prince Mohammed is overhauling the country in the
0:16:30 > 0:16:34economy. He has a lot of ambitious economic plans. American business
0:16:34 > 0:16:41has a big role to play in that. He's coming to America to interact with a
0:16:41 > 0:16:46lot of business leaders across the country. Some of them Saudi Arabia
0:16:46 > 0:16:48will be investing their companies through its public investment fund,
0:16:48 > 0:16:53but many others it is inviting to invest and participate in vision
0:16:53 > 0:16:572030, the masterplan to restructure the Saudi economy. So there is a lot
0:16:57 > 0:17:03on the table and a lot of shared interest.So that is what the Saudis
0:17:03 > 0:17:07want, what they don't want is criticism of Saudi Arabia's war in
0:17:07 > 0:17:12Yemen and there is this resolution going forwards in the US Senate, a
0:17:12 > 0:17:16lot of criticism from Congress about the role Saudi Arabia is playing in
0:17:16 > 0:17:19Yemen, especially that something like 5,000 civilians have died in
0:17:19 > 0:17:24that war. Should Mohammed bin Salman not the answering those questions in
0:17:24 > 0:17:30America as well?Well, this resolution in Congress and it is a
0:17:30 > 0:17:33bit of domestic politics getting mixed up with foreign policy because
0:17:33 > 0:17:39also, the senators are using that to try and restrict the war powers act
0:17:39 > 0:17:43and the power of the President to commit forces overseas. So they are
0:17:43 > 0:17:46really using the subject more to control the presidency than
0:17:46 > 0:17:53particularly focusing on the Yemen issue. Yemen is a tragedy, wars are
0:17:53 > 0:17:58tragedies and Saudi Arabia is aware of that and going out of its way to
0:17:58 > 0:18:02address the humanitarian problems. But Saudi Arabia's Security has been
0:18:02 > 0:18:07threatened. It sees a militia allied to around growing on its Southern
0:18:07 > 0:18:10border and it felt it had to take action. People who are not
0:18:10 > 0:18:15threatened, or far away from the border, can afford to be more
0:18:15 > 0:18:18judgmental about it. But if your security is threatened as a
0:18:18 > 0:18:23government, you have a responsibility to act and
0:18:23 > 0:18:27unfortunately, they always cause human suffering.Thank you very much
0:18:27 > 0:18:32for joining us. Important visit and important issues. And we will return
0:18:32 > 0:18:34to that later.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Another shooting in another school in America.
0:18:36 > 0:18:41Two students have been injured at a high school in Maryland -
0:18:41 > 0:18:42not far from the US capital.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44The shooter died in hospital after engaging in gunfire
0:18:44 > 0:18:47with the school's security officer.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Officials say one female and one male student are still in critical
0:18:49 > 0:18:56condition in hospital.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59This incident comes just four days before the March For Our Lives
0:18:59 > 0:19:01protest takes place in Washington, urging lawmakers to support
0:19:01 > 0:19:03stricter gun control laws.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06Students coming from all around the country this weekend. And that
0:19:06 > 0:19:10shooting will be very much in their minds, as will be the shooting in
0:19:10 > 0:19:18Florida. There is one aspect of this which is quite interesting. That is
0:19:18 > 0:19:22that the school, what you call them in America? The law enforcement
0:19:22 > 0:19:24officer. Security officer.
0:19:24 > 0:19:30He was involved in shooting the shooter. That would be flagged up by
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Donald Trump, who has advocated for that.
0:19:33 > 0:19:38Yes, they are all all. Is. This was on my local news this morning in
0:19:38 > 0:19:45Washington. -- they are all terrible stories. The shooter had a
0:19:45 > 0:19:47relationship with the girl in the school and that may have
0:19:47 > 0:19:51precipitated this, but it seems different from Park and because the
0:19:51 > 0:19:56officer responded in one minute and was there engaging with the shooter.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Maybe there could have been more share and people killed, but this
0:19:59 > 0:20:03much will revive focus on this issue.
0:20:03 > 0:20:11We focus a lot on that -- natural tragedies, but not this one.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14It has been exactly six months since Hurricane Maria struck the US
0:20:14 > 0:20:16territory of Puerto Rico - and the island is still
0:20:16 > 0:20:20suffering the consequences.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22At the time the storm ripped a deadly path of destruction
0:20:22 > 0:20:25but today hundreds of thousands still haven't had their
0:20:25 > 0:20:26power restored or help with rebuilding homes.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29The US Government has been criticised for a lack
0:20:29 > 0:20:30of urgency and response.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33In the first of two reports this week, Aleem Maqbool looks at how
0:20:33 > 0:20:35the disaster has changed life in Puerto Rico and where
0:20:35 > 0:20:43the greatest needs remain.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46There are sights in Puerto Rico that can look like the hurricane
0:20:46 > 0:20:48struck just yesterday.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Everyone has a tale of trauma still fresh in the mind.
0:20:50 > 0:20:52We grabbed what we could and ran out, she says.
0:20:52 > 0:20:56But everywhere was blocked.
0:20:56 > 0:20:59We managed to get up there and we heard the noise.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01The house just came away and collapsed.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04The problem is, in six months, little has moved on.
0:21:04 > 0:21:11She and her family run pipes from a nearby spring to get water
0:21:11 > 0:21:13to the abandoned building where they've been living.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17And there is still no power.
0:21:17 > 0:21:22So what help have they had from the American agencies here?
0:21:22 > 0:21:24We applied for help, but we were told we weren't
0:21:24 > 0:21:26entitled to any, she says.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28We've put in an appeal, but we're still waiting for an answer.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30Puerto Ricans are American citizens.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32They can go backwards and forwards to the US mainland
0:21:32 > 0:21:36as they please.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38And crucially, they're entitled to the same disaster response
0:21:38 > 0:21:41from Washington as any other Americans.
0:21:41 > 0:21:42You'll find very few here who believe that
0:21:43 > 0:21:49that is what they got.
0:21:49 > 0:21:52The family of Raul Jiminez believe he could still be alive if there had
0:21:52 > 0:21:53been a more urgent response.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55After the storm, the clinic where he got dialysis
0:21:55 > 0:21:56was without electricity.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59It meant patients would have to miss treatments or wait
0:21:59 > 0:22:01hours hoping to be seen.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04He was in the wheelchair quiet...
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Died.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09He died in the line, waiting for treatment?
0:22:09 > 0:22:14Died in the line.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Any true count of the number who were killed by the hurricane
0:22:17 > 0:22:20would include people like Raul.
0:22:20 > 0:22:25But until now, the official figures doesn't.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28The government want to show some kind of numbers that
0:22:28 > 0:22:34is not the reality.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36They want us to believe that all is OK.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Under pressure, the government has ordered a recount of those
0:22:39 > 0:22:40killed by Hurricane Maria.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42Some estimate the new number could be nearly 20 times
0:22:42 > 0:22:43the original figure.
0:22:43 > 0:22:51And all the while, for so many, the suffering continues.
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Aleem is now back in Washington and joins us now to talk
0:22:54 > 0:22:55about what he found on his trip.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59How is it possible the richest country in the world cannot put the
0:22:59 > 0:23:03power back on in Puerto Rico?I suppose it has to be remembered
0:23:03 > 0:23:08firstly that logistically, this is arguably the most difficult natural
0:23:08 > 0:23:13disaster the US has had to deal with. It is an Ireland of 3.5
0:23:13 > 0:23:18million people and the power grid was almost totally destroyed.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22Certainly well over 85% of the grid was destroyed, so it has taken time.
0:23:22 > 0:23:28But there is a sense that from Puerto Ricans we spoke to that they
0:23:28 > 0:23:32did not feel they were being treated like other Americans. And they had
0:23:32 > 0:23:35complaints not just about the American Federal response, but about
0:23:35 > 0:23:41incompetence and even corruption within their own administration as
0:23:41 > 0:23:45well. So that was their complaint. But certainly, the Americans will
0:23:45 > 0:23:52point to the fact that in the capital, San Juan, much of the power
0:23:52 > 0:23:55has been restored, although you will see a lot of traffic lights still
0:23:55 > 0:24:01out and a lot of traffic accidents. But when you get into the rural
0:24:01 > 0:24:03areas, the sad thing was, we go to some of these places and people
0:24:03 > 0:24:07would say they have not seen any work being done, they have not been
0:24:07 > 0:24:11told when they will have worked on, when they will get their power back.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15And believe me, at the beginning of this crisis after the hurricane, we
0:24:15 > 0:24:20lived for a couple of days, me and our team, without power. It was
0:24:20 > 0:24:24extremely frustrating. These people had been doing it for six months and
0:24:24 > 0:24:29it is perhaps no surprise that the suicide rate in the Puerto Rico has
0:24:29 > 0:24:32increased dramatically as well over that time.
0:24:32 > 0:24:37Thanks very much. It is great that you got back. Before we go, sad
0:24:37 > 0:24:39story.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41The last remaining male northern white rhinoceros has died,
0:24:41 > 0:24:45bringing the sub-species one step closer to extinction.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48Yes, the 45-year-old rhino, called "Sudan", was put down
0:24:48 > 0:24:49after suffering an illness related to old age.
0:24:49 > 0:24:59Only two other northern white rhinos are now left - both females.
0:25:00 > 0:25:0645-year-old white man looking extent, that is not make me think of
0:25:06 > 0:25:12anyone! You met Sudan, but you could not match his tinder profile. I
0:25:12 > 0:25:16never thought I would ask you if you had a tender profile but he did, and
0:25:16 > 0:25:21he said, I perform well under pressure, I liked eat grass and
0:25:21 > 0:25:26chill in the mud. Not you. 6-foot tall and £5,000, if it matters, I
0:25:26 > 0:25:32love that! A rhino with a Sudan profile!
0:25:32 > 0:25:37Why did you leave out the bids, the fake of my species literally depends
0:25:37 > 0:25:40on me? That is the most relevant bit.
0:25:40 > 0:25:46I got stuck! I tried that years ago, it tried 20
0:25:46 > 0:25:49years for that to work!
0:25:49 > 0:25:51This is Beyond 100 Days, from the BBC.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54Coming up for viewers on the BBC News Channel and BBC World News...
0:25:54 > 0:25:56US authorities are investigating whether a fourth bombing in Texas
0:25:56 > 0:25:58is the work of a serial attacker.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Two people have been killed in recent weeks.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02We'll hear from a former Deputy Director of the FBI,
0:26:02 > 0:26:05for his take on the matter.
0:26:10 > 0:26:17Good evening. The first day of the astronomical spring and a fair
0:26:17 > 0:26:21amount of sunshine. Splendid afternoon across Scotland. Blue
0:26:21 > 0:26:24skies through the day. Across England and Wales, after a bright
0:26:24 > 0:26:30stars, more cloud around in central areas. It stayed dry in Northampton
0:26:30 > 0:26:36but some source and spots of rain and sleet. Tomorrow, the weather
0:26:36 > 0:26:40comes from the Atlantic. On the satellite image, cloud is gripping
0:26:40 > 0:26:44towards us. The clear breaks across Scotland and Northern Ireland will
0:26:44 > 0:26:47drift South across England and Wales. Clearing skies here,
0:26:47 > 0:26:52temperatures drop in the furthest. After initial frost in Scotland and
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Northern Ireland, rain spreads to the Hebrides and many areas frost
0:26:55 > 0:27:00free. Frost to eastern parts of Scotland but why do Frosty across
0:27:00 > 0:27:03England and Wales. The coldest conditions in the West Midlands,
0:27:03 > 0:27:08Wales and North West England. -4, -6 tomorrow morning. Chilly morning
0:27:08 > 0:27:13commute but lovely bright day for much of England and Wales. Early
0:27:13 > 0:27:19mist and fog clears. It clouds over a bit but still we have dry weather.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22Further North, morning brightness but already cloudy in Western
0:27:22 > 0:27:27Scotland and Northern Ireland with occasional rain. Heavier rain on the
0:27:27 > 0:27:29hell is spreading towards Cumbria, Northern England and North Wales
0:27:29 > 0:27:35later. And some rain in the East of Scotland. The cloud breaks here into
0:27:35 > 0:27:39the afternoon, it could hit 12 degrees in Aberdeenshire. After the
0:27:39 > 0:27:43chilly start, even than Wales achieving 7-10dC but still feeling
0:27:43 > 0:27:47cool in Northern England with a cloud in place. Even here, milder
0:27:47 > 0:27:52air on Thursday which pushes in off the Atlantic. Ick. By the end of the
0:27:52 > 0:27:57week but still, winds off the Atlantic so nowhere near as cold.
0:27:57 > 0:28:01After patchy rain into Thursday, it brightens up to eastern areas with
0:28:01 > 0:28:05sunny spells. Clouding over in the West without breaks of rain later,
0:28:05 > 0:28:11strung together. And is, but all in double big temperatures, 12, 13, 14
0:28:11 > 0:28:16Celsius in some parts of eastern Scotland. Rain on Thursday night and
0:28:16 > 0:28:19into Friday which clears eastern areas on Friday, sunny spells here
0:28:19 > 0:28:23and showers from the West. They could be heavy with hale and
0:28:23 > 0:28:27thunder, blustery day with longer spells a rain into Western Scotland
0:28:27 > 0:28:30and the North of Northern Ireland later. Temperatures still into
0:28:30 > 0:28:31double figures.
0:30:08 > 0:30:10This is Beyond One Hundred Days, with me

0:30:30 > 0:30:33Coming up in the next half hour.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35A parcel has exploded in Texas in what police suspect
0:30:35 > 0:30:38to be the latest in a series of bombings targeting Austin.
0:30:38 > 0:30:42So far two people have died and six have been injured in the attacks.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45The EU will continue to set the quotas of how much fish can
0:30:45 > 0:30:48be caught in UK waters during the Brexit transition period,

0:30:50 > 0:30:52Let us know your thoughts by using the hashtag
0:30:52 > 0:31:02'Beyond-One-Hundred-Days'.
0:31:10 > 0:31:11US authorities are investigating whether serial
0:31:11 > 0:31:13bomber is on the loose in Texas.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16A parcel bomb exploded at a FedEx depot near San Antonio today -
0:31:16 > 0:31:22the fourth bomb to go off in the state in xx weeks.
0:31:23 > 0:31:24-- in the state.
0:31:24 > 0:31:26Two people have died in these bombings,
0:31:26 > 0:31:27two more have been injured.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30There's so far no indication who's behind them or even
0:31:30 > 0:31:31whether they're coordinated.
0:31:31 > 0:31:33But 500 FBI agents are now working on the case.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Today president Trump addressed the incidents.
0:31:35 > 0:31:36This is obviously a very, very sick individual
0:31:36 > 0:31:37or maybe individuals.
0:31:37 > 0:31:41These are sick people and we will get to the bottom of it.
0:31:41 > 0:31:42We will be very strong.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45We have all sorts of federal agencies over there right
0:31:45 > 0:31:47now, we're searching what is going on in Austin,
0:31:47 > 0:31:55a great place, tremendous place.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57And for more on the investigation into this case
0:31:57 > 0:32:00I spoke a short time ago with Ron Hosko, Former Deputy
0:32:00 > 0:32:01Director of the FBI.
0:32:01 > 0:32:04Ron, this is a really curious case what is happening down in Texas.
0:32:04 > 0:32:06What is your read on it?
0:32:06 > 0:32:07It is very concerning.
0:32:07 > 0:32:09First we had a round of bombs that were,
0:32:09 > 0:32:13what sounds like hand delivered, presumably to targets of the bomber,
0:32:13 > 0:32:17you know, specific targets.
0:32:17 > 0:32:24Presumably his desired victims.
0:32:24 > 0:32:31And a handful of people injured.
0:32:31 > 0:32:34And then some relative silence for a few days and now we have had
0:32:34 > 0:32:36some additional bombings that have come using a different
0:32:36 > 0:32:38methodology, not hand-delivered but run with a tripwire.
0:32:38 > 0:32:45Another one put into FedEx, the delivery chain, for FedEx.
0:32:45 > 0:32:47And some additional ones in the delivery chain
0:32:47 > 0:32:49now that are being looked at by law enforcement.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53So the methodology has changed.
0:32:53 > 0:32:57We do not know if the subject has had these devices built already over
0:32:57 > 0:33:01time or has them stockpiled.
0:33:01 > 0:33:03Has the additional components for additional devices.
0:33:03 > 0:33:09It is very concerning.
0:33:09 > 0:33:13You say this subject, you are assuming that it is one person?
0:33:13 > 0:33:17I am, you know if we look back at bombers over time they tend
0:33:17 > 0:33:22to be angry individuals who have a purpose in mind.
0:33:22 > 0:33:26Whether it is, you know, the Unabomber, you know it's
0:33:26 > 0:33:32certainly a very solitary person, very capable and deadly,
0:33:32 > 0:33:35going to the killer of Judge Vance and other bombers, other bombings
0:33:35 > 0:33:44in Georgia and in the Florida area.
0:33:44 > 0:33:45Eric Robert Rudolph, the Centennial Park bomber,
0:33:45 > 0:33:48who also bombed an abortion provider in Alabama.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50These folks tend to work by themselves, they do not
0:33:50 > 0:33:55tend to be in teams, people working in concert.
0:33:55 > 0:33:56So it remains to be seen.
0:33:56 > 0:33:58Maybe there are other people and of course
0:33:58 > 0:34:02that is what the appeal is through the media,
0:34:02 > 0:34:06by law enforcement now, for the public to come out as well.
0:34:06 > 0:34:08So if you're running this case what are the clues
0:34:08 > 0:34:10you are looking at?
0:34:10 > 0:34:12Well first there are a couple of different channels
0:34:12 > 0:34:14going on right now.
0:34:14 > 0:34:19One is the forensics of the devices that they can recover.
0:34:19 > 0:34:23In the post-blast investigation that is very detailed examination
0:34:23 > 0:34:28of anything that came out of the already exploded devices.
0:34:28 > 0:34:31They're looking for DNA, for fingerprints, essentially
0:34:31 > 0:34:34the bomber's signature and what type of initiation,
0:34:34 > 0:34:39what were the explosive components and how was it constructed.
0:34:39 > 0:34:41What was the shrapnel.
0:34:41 > 0:34:44So they're looking for all of that.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46They're looking at the victimology to see if there is any
0:34:46 > 0:34:48link to the victims or intended victims.
0:34:48 > 0:34:51What are you doing to try to prevent future attacks?
0:34:51 > 0:34:53Well I'm doing what they're doing, which is going to media,
0:34:53 > 0:34:56recognising that this is the opportunity for the best
0:34:56 > 0:35:04partnership between law enforcement, through the media, to the public.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06They may have 500 agents on the ground down there
0:35:06 > 0:35:09but that is no match for thousands and thousands of eyes
0:35:09 > 0:35:14of the community, of a loved one, a neighbour.
0:35:14 > 0:35:16Somebody who sees something of concern and says
0:35:16 > 0:35:18you know who did that, that is my next-door neighbour.
0:35:18 > 0:35:24I see him in his garage at night.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27So that has to be leveraged, that is what they're trying to do.
0:35:27 > 0:35:29If you see something, say something.
0:35:29 > 0:35:30Thank you very much.
0:35:30 > 0:35:40You're welcome.
0:35:46 > 0:35:50Gary O'Donoghue joins us live now from Austin.
0:35:50 > 0:35:55While they are saying nothing and they give up West conference and
0:35:55 > 0:35:57Whitley refused to answer specific questions. They've been on the scene
0:35:57 > 0:36:02by about ten or 11 hours by that stage was up compare that to what
0:36:02 > 0:36:05happened on Sunday, by Monday morning they were telling us the
0:36:05 > 0:36:08bombing there was linked to the three previous ones even though it
0:36:08 > 0:36:13was a different kind of delivery, this tripwire across the pavement.
0:36:13 > 0:36:17So I think either they're having some trouble down there working out
0:36:17 > 0:36:21exactly what was in the bomb or they are giving information back for some
0:36:21 > 0:36:26particular reason. They're not saying, not confirming it was a
0:36:26 > 0:36:32package destined for them to or had come from there in the first place.
0:36:32 > 0:36:38Or that it contained the shrapnel. One interesting fact is one of the
0:36:38 > 0:36:43relatives of the men injured on Sunday, those two young white men
0:36:43 > 0:36:47who were walking along and trip the tripwire, one of the relatives of
0:36:47 > 0:36:51the men said he thought his son had had nails driven into his knees by
0:36:51 > 0:36:54the explosion. That would be an interesting connection. But at this
0:36:54 > 0:36:58stage there not tying this book bombing in 18 days to both other
0:36:58 > 0:37:05once just yet.I was reading today one of the most longest-running FBI
0:37:05 > 0:37:10investigations was backed into the Unabomber. It took them a long time
0:37:10 > 0:37:14of course to get in touch with him and find out what his motives were.
0:37:14 > 0:37:18Are they looking with regards this investigation at the signature of
0:37:18 > 0:37:24these bombs because they have been different, one was a tripwire, won a
0:37:24 > 0:37:27parcel bomb on a doorstep presumably this one a bit different. Someone
0:37:27 > 0:37:33who has a platter of skills.While this one might not be different to
0:37:33 > 0:37:39the first three if you think about it. They said FedEx, the police said
0:37:39 > 0:37:43FedEx was not the target told could well be that this was a parcel bomb
0:37:43 > 0:37:46aimed for a specific individual like the first three. That went off
0:37:46 > 0:37:51prematurely. That is a perfectly viable possibility. Of course there
0:37:51 > 0:37:55will look at the mechanisms inside the bombs. Initially they said the
0:37:55 > 0:38:00first three bombings, they contained readily available household items
0:38:00 > 0:38:05that had been constructed. They're not saying anything like as much
0:38:05 > 0:38:08detail as that now but if you were a member with the Unabomber, it took
0:38:08 > 0:38:13years for them to catch him. Those bombings were much more spread apart
0:38:13 > 0:38:19and eventually of course the Washington Post and New York Times
0:38:19 > 0:38:22published his old manifesto sometime before the court in this stage no
0:38:22 > 0:38:30idea of the motivation as far as we can tell.Of course Austin is a big
0:38:30 > 0:38:36place but it does start to play on people's minds when we have five,
0:38:36 > 0:38:41then they cannot catch this guy. Back in 2002 they had this sniper in
0:38:41 > 0:38:49Washington snooping - sniping at the back of a van and you get this fear
0:38:49 > 0:38:55and suspicion and worry.I was Lily in Washington at that time and when
0:38:55 > 0:38:59this happened in Austin you think back to it. It just imprints itself
0:38:59 > 0:39:04on your memory and when the sniper was out there my kids could not
0:39:04 > 0:39:05leave their classrooms during playground time, they never went
0:39:05 > 0:39:11outside. We did not go to the park after school just because we did not
0:39:11 > 0:39:14know whether a school playground or park was going to be the next
0:39:14 > 0:39:18target. So desperately limited peoples lives and I would be if you
0:39:18 > 0:39:23went to playground in Austin at the moment I bet they would be empty and
0:39:23 > 0:39:26stop because you never know if you're going to be the next target.
0:39:26 > 0:39:32And they will do until they find out who's this.
0:39:32 > 0:39:35In the last half an hour - further revelations have surfaced
0:39:35 > 0:39:37on the work Cambridge Analytica did for the Donald Trump
0:39:37 > 0:39:39presidential election campaign.
0:39:39 > 0:39:44In a report on Channel 4 News the frame appeared to claim that it ran
0:39:44 > 0:39:51key parts of the strategy for Donald Trump. It was secretly recorded
0:39:51 > 0:40:01discussing coordination between the Trump campaign and other sources.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03Let's bring in our North America Editor Jon Sopel who's
0:40:03 > 0:40:10been sitting across the latest revelations from Channel 4.
0:40:10 > 0:40:15That is focusing on the role specifically in the Trump campaign.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18What have the company been saying. While they have been caught
0:40:18 > 0:40:23red-handed with their hands in the cookie jar it seems. Either
0:40:23 > 0:40:29Cambridge Analytica are full of BS or they have been up to no good. It
0:40:29 > 0:40:32is hard to draw any other conclusion from listening to what has been
0:40:32 > 0:40:38said. They are either up to Black Ops and honey traps and blackmail
0:40:38 > 0:40:42and covert recordings and all the rest of it or they are making it all
0:40:42 > 0:40:45up in which case neither of them are a good look. What is interesting
0:40:45 > 0:40:52about what came out this evening on Channel 4 News, the suggestion of
0:40:52 > 0:40:55just how and for their work in the Trump campaign. And help open it
0:40:55 > 0:41:00was. The cost if you think about the way political campaign finance is
0:41:00 > 0:41:03structured in the US there is a strict separation between what are
0:41:03 > 0:41:07called these super packs, the funding bodies, and the Trump
0:41:07 > 0:41:11campaign. It seems much information was bleeding between the two and a
0:41:11 > 0:41:16chief executive of Cambridge and the little girl who has been now
0:41:16 > 0:41:19suspended as the company tries to salvage its reputation, was making
0:41:19 > 0:41:25it seem like yes, we were working with everyone involved alongside and
0:41:25 > 0:41:27I think that brings up some questions about electoral finance
0:41:27 > 0:41:34and electoral law in the US about what they were up to.Not just in
0:41:34 > 0:41:38the US, clearly this is to be some implication that Cambridge Analytica
0:41:38 > 0:41:45has been involved in political campaigns in Europe as well. And
0:41:45 > 0:41:48perhaps not surprisingly seen Steve Bannon initially appearing with the
0:41:48 > 0:41:53National front in France as well. Also someone who has been tied up
0:41:53 > 0:41:57with Cambridge analytic.Yes and Steve Bannon was on the board of
0:41:57 > 0:42:01Cambridge Analytica and the Mercer family, very well-known in the as
0:42:01 > 0:42:09being big funders of Donald Trump, they were the people who got very
0:42:09 > 0:42:13interested in Cambridge Analytica I wanted to put Steve Bannon on the
0:42:13 > 0:42:17board and so there is a close link between Cambridge analytic and the
0:42:17 > 0:42:21Trump organisation and if you look at some of the Black Ops but went on
0:42:21 > 0:42:25during the Trump campaign, the smearing of Hillary Clinton,
0:42:25 > 0:42:29Cambridge analytic in the latest bit of covert recording there has been
0:42:29 > 0:42:33released claimed responsibility for all of it. They said they were the
0:42:33 > 0:42:37masters of it, they designed the strategy, delivered on it, they were
0:42:37 > 0:42:40the ones who delivered the victory to Donald Trump in 2016.
0:42:40 > 0:42:44Uncomfortable place for the president at the moment to have
0:42:44 > 0:42:48someone like that saying yes, we did it all. Because Donald Trump of
0:42:48 > 0:42:52course I said it was his brilliance that led to that election victory
0:42:52 > 0:42:57and that he was the campaign maestro. So I think huge problems
0:42:57 > 0:43:00for the reputation of Cambridge analytic. A couple of months ago we
0:43:00 > 0:43:06had a British company, a PR company, go under because what they did in
0:43:06 > 0:43:11South Africa. This starts to look like small beer compared to what
0:43:11 > 0:43:14Cambridge analytic have been training at least in these
0:43:14 > 0:43:23undercover recordings.Interesting, Steve Bannon in Italy last week,
0:43:23 > 0:43:27sitting down in the basement of Trump Tower with the French National
0:43:27 > 0:43:35front leader. The one thing I suppose, on this issue, the campaign
0:43:35 > 0:43:40would say they use Cambridge Analytica for the primaries and when
0:43:40 > 0:43:44Donald Trump got the ticket he was using data from the RNC because in
0:43:44 > 0:43:49their view that as more trustworthy. So the question is are Cambridge
0:43:49 > 0:43:56analytic over again just how much they were involved.That is the
0:43:56 > 0:43:58question I posed at the start, are they just dragging and full of hot
0:43:58 > 0:44:05air and nonsense all by the two that sort of activity. Either way not a
0:44:05 > 0:44:09good position for them to be in and they are suffering enormous
0:44:09 > 0:44:16reputational damage as a company because everyone thought it was a
0:44:16 > 0:44:18genius company that had extraordinary insights as a result
0:44:18 > 0:44:22of algorithmic tests on opinion forming and all the rest of it. That
0:44:22 > 0:44:29informed where each individual voter thought and what vulnerabilities
0:44:29 > 0:44:34would be. It seems there was a lot of old-fashioned dirty work going on
0:44:34 > 0:44:41as well.Thank you very much for joining us and you are right,
0:44:41 > 0:44:45resident Trump will not like the idea that anywhere else was
0:44:45 > 0:44:56responsible for his victory. -- President Trump.
0:44:56 > 0:44:58It's been three years since the outbreak of war in Yemen.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01Houthi rebels - backed by Iran - remain in control of large
0:45:01 > 0:45:03parts of the country - including the capital Sana'a.
0:45:03 > 0:45:06Fighting them are forces loyal to the former president -
0:45:06 > 0:45:07who are being backed by Saudi airstrikes.
0:45:07 > 0:45:09It's impossible to say exactly how many people
0:45:09 > 0:45:12the war has killed - but we know thousands of civilians
0:45:12 > 0:45:15have died and millions more have been displaced as a result
0:45:15 > 0:45:16of the conflict.
0:45:16 > 0:45:18Children have especially suffered - with famine and the worst cholera
0:45:18 > 0:45:20outbreak in history affecting hundreds of thousands of youngsters.
0:45:20 > 0:45:22I'm joined now by the BBC's chief international
0:45:22 > 0:45:24correspondent Lyse Doucet, who has recently
0:45:24 > 0:45:29returned from Yemen.
0:45:29 > 0:45:33We have been watching Euro series from the ground. The Saudi Crown
0:45:33 > 0:45:37Prince is in Washington today, afraid transactional relationship
0:45:37 > 0:45:41with the Middle East at the moment. The Americans despise the
0:45:41 > 0:45:45administration is concerned not so involved in what is going on
0:45:45 > 0:45:48day-to-day but the Senate more so because they talk today about
0:45:48 > 0:45:53whether America should be involved. There was a bipartisan effort in
0:45:53 > 0:45:59Congress to stop America aid for the Saudi campaign in Yemen because they
0:45:59 > 0:46:03are accused of carrying out war crimes with their bombing which has
0:46:03 > 0:46:08killed a high level of civilian casualties according to the UN. When
0:46:08 > 0:46:13we were in Riyadh a few weeks ago the Saudis so does their command and
0:46:13 > 0:46:16control centre and how they adhere to the higher standards of
0:46:16 > 0:46:20targeting, they go through all the laws of war, humanitarian law,
0:46:20 > 0:46:24trying to establish which targets are proper targets and which are
0:46:24 > 0:46:29civilian targets and should be avoided. And all of that, they seem
0:46:29 > 0:46:32to take every precaution but the reality is on the ground that homes
0:46:32 > 0:46:39are being hit, children been hit and even though we could not get to the
0:46:39 > 0:46:43capital as the Saudis have put on restrictions. We were able to get
0:46:43 > 0:46:46people to film for us and the stories that came back are
0:46:46 > 0:46:52horrendous.You have covered many war zones and I just wondered if you
0:46:52 > 0:46:57could project forward, do the trajectory for the war, how long it
0:46:57 > 0:47:01might last. The Saudis seem to be in it to make sure that there will not
0:47:01 > 0:47:05be extremist on their border and verbal fight as long as it takes. So
0:47:05 > 0:47:09what happens then question mark well there are couple of red lines for
0:47:09 > 0:47:15the Saudis, Festival Yemen is the neighbour and right on their border
0:47:15 > 0:47:20and more than that, the foodie rebels have long-range mystic
0:47:20 > 0:47:29missiles that can reach Riyadh. Dashed the 30s. Second point, even
0:47:29 > 0:47:36more importantly, when they see Yemen and the Houthis they see their
0:47:36 > 0:47:40archrival Iran on their border and that is something they will not
0:47:40 > 0:47:43countenance. That is certainly on the agenda in Washington this week
0:47:43 > 0:47:48in conversations with President Trump.Good to see you, wish we
0:47:48 > 0:48:04could talk more. We have a lot of stories to get through, a busy day.
0:48:04 > 0:48:06Still to come - more on the upcoming wedding
0:48:06 > 0:48:09of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry - and we can bring you important news
0:48:09 > 0:48:14about the wedding cake.
0:48:14 > 0:48:17A two year old girl has died after the car she was in
0:48:17 > 0:48:18plunged into a river in Wales.
0:48:18 > 0:48:21Kiara Moore was pulled from the vehicle in the River
0:48:21 > 0:48:23in Cardigan near her family's outdoor pursuits business.
0:48:23 > 0:48:27Her father said she had been left in the car while the driver got
0:48:27 > 0:48:28cash from the office.
0:48:28 > 0:48:30When the driver returned, the car was missing
0:48:30 > 0:48:33and initially feared stolen.
0:48:33 > 0:48:35The little girl would have celebrated her third
0:48:35 > 0:48:36birthday next Tuesday.
0:48:36 > 0:48:38Police officers say they're investigating the incident and have
0:48:38 > 0:48:41appealed for witnesses.
0:48:41 > 0:48:45From Cardigan, Tomos Morgan reports.
0:48:45 > 0:48:47Kara Moore, just two years old.
0:48:47 > 0:48:50Had it not been for the tragic events of yesterday afternoon,
0:48:50 > 0:48:54she would have been celebrating her third birthday a week today.
0:48:54 > 0:48:58It's understood that two-year-old Kiara was left in the silver mini
0:48:58 > 0:49:02while a family member went into offices nearby.
0:49:02 > 0:49:05By the time the family member returned the car
0:49:05 > 0:49:07car had disappeared.
0:49:07 > 0:49:10The police were contacted and a search was under way.
0:49:10 > 0:49:12They believed the car to be stolen.
0:49:12 > 0:49:15It transpired that the car was in the River Teifl just yards away.
0:49:15 > 0:49:17The toddler was airlifted to the university hospital
0:49:17 > 0:49:19of Wales in Cardiff, but doctors were
0:49:19 > 0:49:22unable to revive her.
0:49:22 > 0:49:25Young families in the town today have been paying their own tributes
0:49:25 > 0:49:29by laying flowers by the river.
0:49:29 > 0:49:30She was a very lively little girl.
0:49:30 > 0:49:32Very smiley.
0:49:32 > 0:49:34Cheeky little smile she had all the time.
0:49:34 > 0:49:37She...
0:49:37 > 0:49:39Her and her mum were always together, always fun days out.
0:49:39 > 0:49:41And...
0:49:41 > 0:49:43She had a happy little life.
0:49:43 > 0:49:46Short life, but a happy little life.
0:49:46 > 0:49:49Commenting on Facebook, Kiara's father thanked the work
0:49:49 > 0:49:53of the emergency services whilst also paying tribute to his
0:49:53 > 0:49:59daughter saying she had an "amazing but short life."
0:49:59 > 0:50:04It's unclear as to how the Mini came to be in the River Teifl as family
0:50:04 > 0:50:07and friends mourn the loss of young Kiara the investigation into exactly
0:50:07 > 0:50:08what happened continues.
0:50:08 > 0:50:18Tomos Morgan, BBC News, Cardigan.
0:50:21 > 0:50:22The Environment Secretary Michael Gove
0:50:22 > 0:50:24says he's "disappointed" that the European Union
0:50:24 > 0:50:28will continue to set quotas on how much fish can be caught off
0:50:28 > 0:50:29the coast of Britain during the "transition
0:50:29 > 0:50:32period" after Brexit.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34He's told the Commons that the Government would seek
0:50:34 > 0:50:37to take back control of its waters at the end of 2020 when
0:50:37 > 0:50:40the UK is due to leave the Common Fisheries Policy.
0:50:40 > 0:50:45Let's take a quick listen to what he said.
0:50:45 > 0:50:47There is a significant prize at the end of
0:50:47 > 0:50:48the implementation period and
0:50:48 > 0:50:52it is important that all of us in every area except that the
0:50:52 > 0:50:55implementation period is a necessary step towards securing that prize.
0:50:55 > 0:50:58For coastal communities it is an opportunity
0:50:58 > 0:51:00to revive economically, for our marine environment it is an
0:51:00 > 0:51:02opportunity to be managed sustainably.
0:51:02 > 0:51:05And it is critical that all of us in the interests of the
0:51:05 > 0:51:10whole nation keep our eyes on that prize.
0:51:10 > 0:51:13Well that's what the secretary of state had to say,
0:51:13 > 0:51:16but what do people in the industry affected by the policy think?
0:51:16 > 0:51:18To find out more let's talk to Bertie Armstrong,
0:51:18 > 0:51:20who is the Chief Executive of the Scottish Fishermen's
0:51:20 > 0:51:25Federation, and joins us from Aberdeen in Scotland
0:51:25 > 0:51:30Great to have you on the show. Putting it bluntly, the reaction
0:51:30 > 0:51:33we've seen today suggests the fishing communities around the UK
0:51:33 > 0:51:37just do not have confidence that the government will look after their
0:51:37 > 0:51:42interests.In the run-up to this we had expected that sovereignty would
0:51:42 > 0:51:48be retained, but is not the same as not negotiating and allowing other
0:51:48 > 0:51:49nations to have fishing opportunities in any implementation
0:51:49 > 0:51:57period. But sovereignty was considered for an extra 21 months so
0:51:57 > 0:52:01we are not impressed with that. That was not meant to be in the plan.
0:52:01 > 0:52:08However as long as cast-iron guarantees, we understand the bigger
0:52:08 > 0:52:13picture, as long as cast-iron guarantees are given that the
0:52:13 > 0:52:16implementation period will not be allowed to be used by the EU to put
0:52:16 > 0:52:21in place longer term arrangements to our detriment, then that will be
0:52:21 > 0:52:27fine. The Common fisheries policy is remarkably distorted. This morning
0:52:27 > 0:52:34we spoke to the Danish industry on the radio and Denmark catches 40
0:52:34 > 0:52:41times more fish in UK waters then we catch in their waters. Grossly
0:52:41 > 0:52:44distorted and it needs sorting out. So a delay in that is not impressive
0:52:44 > 0:52:48but we understand the wider picture and just as long as we are
0:52:48 > 0:52:53guaranteed it will not actually get worse.What material impact could
0:52:53 > 0:52:58this have on the livelihoods of Scottish fishermen?The material
0:52:58 > 0:53:05affect of Brexit for fishermen, this should be a happy success story of
0:53:05 > 0:53:13Brexit. We retain, the value of fish landed by the UK is about £130
0:53:13 > 0:53:21million a year. We keep 40% of the fish that leave our waters, 60% of
0:53:21 > 0:53:25the fish that leave our waters do so in the hands of other European
0:53:25 > 0:53:30nations. So the impact is an annual loss at today's prices of
