You're watching Beyond 100 Days.

0:00:110:00:12

Facebook's share price continues

to slide after revelations

0:00:120:00:22

revelations of a data breach.

0:00:230:00:25

The UK authorities are seeking

a warrant to search the offices

0:00:250:00:27

of the British firm that harvested

Facebook data.

0:00:270:00:29

Everybody wants to speak

to Mark Zuckerberg.

0:00:290:00:31

There are plenty of questions,

so why is he not appearing publicly

0:00:310:00:34

to give us the answers?

0:00:340:00:35

President Trump calls

Vladimir Putin to congratulate him

0:00:350:00:37

on his re-election and says the two

leaders could meet soon.

0:00:370:00:40

We will, er, probably get together

in the not-too-distant

0:00:400:00:42

future, so that we can

discuss, er, arms.

0:00:420:00:44

We can discuss the arms race.

0:00:440:00:49

Just four days before

students prepare to march

0:00:490:00:55

for stronger gun control,

after another school shooting

0:00:550:00:56

in the state of Maryland.

0:00:570:00:58

Also on the programme:

0:00:580:01:01

Six months after Hurricane Maria

ripped a path of destruction

0:01:010:01:05

through Puerto Rico,

residents are still

0:01:050:01:07

struggling to recover.

0:01:070:01:10

On the edge of extinction -

the last male northern white

0:01:100:01:12

rhino dies in Kenya.

0:01:120:01:13

There are now just two

females left in the world.

0:01:130:01:22

Get in touch with us

using the hashtag.

0:01:220:01:24

Hello and welcome.

0:01:280:01:30

I'm Katty Kay, in New York.

0:01:300:01:31

And Christian Fraser is in London.

0:01:310:01:33

From Berlin to Washington to London,

politicians are expressing serious

0:01:330:01:35

concern about Facebook and its lax

approach to users' data.

0:01:350:01:40

Facebook's share price fell again

today, under mounting

0:01:400:01:42

scrutiny of its role

in recent election campaigns.

0:01:420:01:48

The UK's Information Commissioner

is applying for a warrant to search

0:01:480:01:51

the offices of the London-based

political consulting firm

0:01:510:01:53

Cambridge Analytica -

which is accused of harvesting

0:01:530:01:55

the personal data of 50

million Facebook members,

0:01:550:01:57

to influence the US presidential

election in 2016.

0:01:570:02:03

Here's our business

editor, Simon Jack.

0:02:030:02:09

In the information age,

personal data is the new currency,

0:02:090:02:12

and we spend it liberally

on social media platforms.

0:02:120:02:20

How old we are, whether we

are in a relationship,

0:02:200:02:23

what our political leanings are -

this could be gathered and used.

0:02:230:02:25

Cambridge Analytica is a company

which does exactly that,

0:02:250:02:28

and it's at the centre of a storm

that has rocked some of the biggest

0:02:280:02:31

companies in the world.

0:02:310:02:32

It started with an app,

which invited Facebook users

0:02:320:02:34

to do a personality test.

0:02:340:02:36

270,000 downloaded it.

0:02:360:02:38

It collected personal information

on them, their friends,

0:02:380:02:41

their friends' friends,

and so on, until it had info

0:02:410:02:43

on 50 million users.

0:02:440:02:46

But that data was passed

to Cambridge Analytica,

0:02:460:02:50

which allegedly used it to influence

the Presidential election in the US,

0:02:500:02:55

using highly targeted messages -

a charge denied by the company.

0:02:550:02:58

The UK's data watchdog

said she'd had concerns

0:02:580:03:00

about the company for some time.

0:03:000:03:02

These allegations are very serious.

0:03:020:03:04

They came to the attention

of our office some months ago and,

0:03:040:03:11

on March 7th, I issued a demand

for information to Cambridge.

0:03:110:03:17

They did not comply with that,

so now I am moving ahead to seek

0:03:170:03:25

a warrant, so I can search

premises and data.

0:03:250:03:28

Separately, Cambridge Analytica

executives were secretly filmed

0:03:280:03:32

by Channel 4 giving advice on how

to influence politicians.

0:03:320:03:42

Cambridge Analytica said it has been

grossly misrespected.

0:03:430:03:48

Whether this tiny consultancy

was involved in influencing

0:03:480:03:53

the US election, there

is an old adage which says

0:03:530:03:56

that if the services

you're getting are free,

0:03:560:04:01

then you are the product,

0:04:010:04:02

served up to advertisers

who are convinced that

0:04:020:04:04

highly targeted messages -

constructed around detailed personal

0:04:040:04:06

information - really work.

0:04:060:04:11

Since the scandal broke,

Facebook has seen £50 billion

0:04:110:04:13

wiped off its value.

0:04:130:04:15

And the pressure on the company

was cranked up today,

0:04:150:04:18

when the Federal Trade Commission

announced it will investigate

0:04:180:04:20

its handling of customer data.

0:04:200:04:22

It has the power to

levy enormous fines.

0:04:220:04:27

Facebook denies any wrongdoing.

0:04:270:04:35

So, could this be a moment

of reckoning for the

0:04:350:04:38

way our data is used?

0:04:380:04:39

For the first time, things

that people suspected

0:04:390:04:41

have surfaced, thanks

to the testimony of whistle-blowers.

0:04:410:04:44

Now we're finally seeing

that the leaders of these companies

0:04:440:04:46

are being called to testify

in front of Parliament.

0:04:460:04:49

Analysts are dumping their stock,

as a vote of no confidence.

0:04:490:04:55

This is a real moment that

will incentivise change.

0:04:550:04:58

The facts of our lives have value.

0:04:580:05:00

Mark Zuckerberg will have the chance

to tell MPs how safely

0:05:000:05:03

that information is kept.

0:05:030:05:04

Simon Jack, BBC News.

0:05:040:05:11

And we are getting news that the CEO

of Cambridge, Alex next, has been

0:05:110:05:19

suspended from his job. The company

involved in that undercover

0:05:190:05:23

operation.

0:05:230:05:24

Some members of the US

Judiciary Committee are calling

0:05:240:05:26

for Facebook's Chief Executive,

Marc Zuckberg, to come and give

0:05:260:05:28

evidence, but the Chairman isn't

committing to make that call.

0:05:280:05:31

Here is a flavour from Capitol Hill.

0:05:310:05:32

I think...

0:05:320:05:33

I think we have a problem out there.

0:05:330:05:42

And what I said during

the last hearing, that

0:05:420:05:44

if the industry won't solve

0:05:440:05:45

these kinds of problems themselves,

then we'll have to solve

0:05:450:05:48

them with legislation.

0:05:480:05:49

It's very serious, what Facebook has

done, and it violates privacy.

0:05:490:05:52

We ought to be looking into it,

but I can't promise

0:05:520:05:54

a hearing at this point.

0:05:540:06:00

For more on this unfolding story,

we spoke a brief time ago

0:06:000:06:02

with Democratic Senator Sheldon

Whitehouse, who sits

0:06:020:06:04

on the Judiciary Committee.

0:06:040:06:09

Senator, I want to get your reaction

to these latest revelations about

0:06:090:06:14

Cambridge Analytica, Facebook and

the role they both played in the

0:06:140:06:17

Trump election.

Well, they are two

separate aspects. One is to make

0:06:170:06:23

sure that Facebook lets its

customers know who has been

0:06:230:06:30

compromised. And what information of

theirs has been demised. And I think

0:06:300:06:36

they should explain to Congress and

the American people how this was

0:06:360:06:38

able to happen. So that we can be

sure that it will not happen again,

0:06:380:06:42

which is a goal that Facebook ought

to share with all of us. The second,

0:06:420:06:47

it is, located in to look into the

role of Cambridge Analytica, both

0:06:470:06:52

here in our election and potentially

in your Brexit election and see to

0:06:520:06:57

what extent they were involved in

manipulating voters. That is going

0:06:570:07:03

to be a touchy issue for our

Republican colleagues because this

0:07:030:07:05

was an effort paid for by one of the

billionaires that is backing the

0:07:050:07:10

Republican Party, the Mercer family.

So not sure we are going to get a

0:07:100:07:17

lot of bipartisanship on that.

Back

in October when the tech giants

0:07:170:07:24

testified in the Senate, is said you

wished they would stop making it

0:07:240:07:27

like this was no big deal. From the

reaction of Facebook over the last

0:07:270:07:32

couple of days, they learn that

lesson?

I think so. When stock

0:07:320:07:38

prices move, that tends to get

Management's attention and I suspect

0:07:380:07:42

a lot of their customers are

personally concerned about exactly

0:07:420:07:46

what was given to this Cambridge

Analytica crowd and what became of

0:07:460:07:51

the data. Once data gets out, it is

really hard to draw it all back. And

0:07:510:07:57

testing whether or not it is world

away in various servers or it has

0:07:570:08:01

been forwarded on to other entities,

all that needs to be proven to

0:08:010:08:08

customers and I hope Congress will

take a strong interest in making

0:08:080:08:11

sure all that happens.

Senator, in

the footage broadcast over here on

0:08:110:08:16

Channel 4 last night, the CEO of

Cambridge Analytica was offering

0:08:160:08:23

services that go beyond data

harvesting and some seem to amount

0:08:230:08:28

to entrapment. He says the film

grossly overstate that, what you

0:08:280:08:36

say?

He ought have the chance to,

for US Congress and your Parliament

0:08:360:08:41

and explain how those recordings of

him misrepresent what he said on

0:08:410:08:45

those recordings. He is entitled, I

suppose, to that chance. I expect he

0:08:450:08:51

would rather just say what he said

is trudge away. I don't know we will

0:08:510:08:56

see him appearing in Congress or

Parliament. But I hope he has a

0:08:560:08:59

chance to explain himself.

They hold

the data of 50 million Americans and

0:08:590:09:08

Facebook sent in data analysts and

lawyers into their offices last

0:09:080:09:12

night. There were boxes removed from

the office last Wednesday, there is

0:09:120:09:17

concern on this side that may be the

horse has already bolted. So when

0:09:170:09:22

you get Facebook before the

committee, will you be asking them

0:09:220:09:24

what they were doing in Cambridge

Analytica's office?

Yes, I think we

0:09:240:09:31

will have an obvious concern about

understanding how this took place in

0:09:310:09:36

the first instance, how they

apparently sold this tens of

0:09:360:09:38

millions of dollars of American data

to this group. And second, how they

0:09:380:09:45

are cleaning it up and how they can

assure themselves that by going to

0:09:450:09:49

the first stop of the data,

Cambridge Analytica, they know that

0:09:490:09:52

it is actually not available to

Cambridge Analytica or two others in

0:09:520:10:00

further Shell corporations or

further servers. As you pointed out,

0:10:000:10:03

once the horse has bolted, it can be

very hard to get it back in the

0:10:030:10:07

stall.

Senator, it is very good to

talk to you, thank you.

My pleasure.

0:10:070:10:15

I don't know if it will make it

easier now for the US Senate to get

0:10:150:10:20

hold of Alexander Nix and to ask

questions, but he has now been

0:10:200:10:25

suspended as CEO of Cambridge

Analytica. A lot of people wanting

0:10:250:10:27

to ask a lot of questions. And we

mentioned Facebook's share price

0:10:270:10:33

falling, that is happening to other

tech and social media companies,

0:10:330:10:36

Twitter share price is down.

Snapchat is also down by 4%. So a

0:10:360:10:42

lot of focus on social media and

their role in elections and whether

0:10:420:10:45

they are trustworthy.

I was wondering, with the greatest

0:10:450:10:50

respect, the senior investigators on

the Senate committee, my concern has

0:10:500:10:55

been since the Russians started --

Russian story starters, a lot of

0:10:550:11:00

them are offered different

generation and do not understand the

0:11:000:11:03

story. I am looking at a message

from the correspondent of the

0:11:030:11:08

observer who has been digging into

Cambridge Analytica and this goes

0:11:080:11:11

back to May 2017. Why is the

Information Commissioner, Elizabeth

0:11:110:11:17

Denham, only now applying for a

warrant to get into those officers?

0:11:170:11:21

I did put that to Damian Collins

yesterday, the chair of the

0:11:210:11:26

committee investigating in the UK.

And he says, the Information

0:11:260:11:29

Commissioner is acting within the

current legislation. She launches an

0:11:290:11:32

enquiry and you can issue

information notices and you can

0:11:320:11:36

follow up and the warrant stage is

not -- is the last stage. They are

0:11:360:11:42

debating this Parliament and he

accepts the Commission does not have

0:11:420:11:45

enough powers and they have to give

her those powers.

0:11:450:11:48

Do they not have enough powers or do

they not realise the gravity of the

0:11:480:11:52

problem? This may change that.

0:11:520:11:54

Donald Trump has called

Vladimir Putin to congratulate him

0:11:540:11:56

on his re-election, and says

he would meet the Russian

0:11:560:11:58

leader in the near future.

0:11:580:12:01

Both actions are

pretty controversial.

0:12:010:12:02

Other Western leaders have refrained

from congratulating Mr Putin.

0:12:020:12:04

And any meeting between Mr Trump

and the Russian President

0:12:040:12:06

in the midst of an investigation

about Moscow's meddling

0:12:060:12:09

in the US election is bound

to raise eyebrows -

0:12:090:12:12

which may be what

Donald Trump likes.

0:12:120:12:20

I had a, er, call with President

Putin and congratulated him

0:12:200:12:23

on the victory, his electoral

victory.

0:12:230:12:27

The, er, call had to do also

with the fact that we will probably

0:12:270:12:30

get together in the not-too-distant

future so that we can discuss arms.

0:12:300:12:33

We can discuss the arms race.

0:12:330:12:40

As you know, he made a statement

that being in an arms race

0:12:400:12:43

is not a great thing,

and it was right after the election,

0:12:430:12:49

one of the first statements he made.

0:12:490:12:52

Mr Trump's decision to congratulate

Mr Putin on an election race that

0:12:520:12:55

had no real opposition has already

met criticism in the US.

0:12:550:13:01

Senator John McCain - a known hawk

in the Republican Party -

0:13:010:13:04

released a statement saying,

"An American president does

0:13:040:13:06

not lead the Free World

by congratulating dictators

0:13:060:13:09

on winning sham elections."

0:13:090:13:13

And Sarah Huckabee Sanders was

giving the White House briefing and

0:13:130:13:16

she was nearly as almost exclusively

about this meeting and

0:13:160:13:21

congratulating President Putin on

the election and whether the was a

0:13:210:13:24

good idea and whether Mr Trump belt

it has been a free and fair

0:13:240:13:28

election. This is what she said.

Putin has been elected in their

0:13:280:13:33

country and that is not something

that we can dictate to them how they

0:13:330:13:36

operate.

0:13:360:13:39

We can only focus on the freeness

and the fairness of our elections,

0:13:390:13:42

and that's something that we 100%

fully support and something

0:13:420:13:45

that we are going to continue

to protect, to make sure bad actors

0:13:450:13:48

don't have the opportunity

to impact them in any way.

0:13:480:13:53

So no comments today to President

Putin about the poisoning in

0:13:530:13:57

Salisbury.

0:13:570:14:01

But I am going to raise you with my

Jean-Claude Juncker European

0:14:010:14:04

Commission President statement.

Similar reaction to John McCain from

0:14:040:14:20

Guy Verhofstadt, very senior in the

European Parliament. No, we don't

0:14:200:14:24

have that. He says, this is not a

time for rather congratulatory

0:14:240:14:29

messages. There was concern in the

European Parliament that it was a

0:14:290:14:32

bit too if you sit. There it is.

0:14:320:14:36

There will be a lot of people who

feel that way. Quickly, what do you

0:14:410:14:45

think about the fact that he did not

raise the issue of poisoning? He

0:14:450:14:48

seems to have gone out of his way

not to offend anyone today.

0:14:480:14:52

And did not raise the overshoot --

the issue of election interference

0:14:520:14:56

in that call which will get

criticism. This administration is

0:14:560:15:01

not interested in pushing human

rights democracy around the world,

0:15:010:15:04

this is a transactional foreign

policy of the Trump administration.

0:15:040:15:08

Talking of which, he also had

another visitor in the White House

0:15:080:15:11

today.

0:15:110:15:17

Mohammed bin Salman,

the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia,

0:15:170:15:19

is Donald Trump's new good friend.

0:15:190:15:21

The two men talked to reporters

after meetings in the White House.

0:15:210:15:24

Bin Salman is on something

of a sales pitch for the Kingdom -

0:15:240:15:27

travelling across the country

to woo US investors.

0:15:270:15:29

But the relationship is not

without controversy.

0:15:290:15:30

A resolution condemning

Saudi Arabia's involvement

0:15:300:15:32

in the war in Yemen is due

for a vote in the Senate today.

0:15:320:15:36

For the White House, however,

it seems having an ally

0:15:360:15:38

in the region to stand against Iran

outweighs the risks of closer

0:15:380:15:41

ties with the country.

0:15:410:15:47

The founder of the Arabia Foundation

is joining us. You know Mohammed bin

0:15:470:15:54

Salman and you have close relations

with him, how does he want to

0:15:540:15:58

improve Saudi Arabia's relationship

with the Trump Administration, what

0:15:580:16:02

does he want from that

administration?

Saudi Arabia always

0:16:020:16:05

has have close relations with an

American government. The Prince has

0:16:050:16:10

worked hard to have closer than --

close relationships with the Trump

0:16:100:16:15

Administration as previous

monarchies have worked to have.

0:16:150:16:18

Relations are very close. There is a

meeting of minds on things like

0:16:180:16:23

Iran, Saudi Arabia and the US and

the White House are on the same

0:16:230:16:26

page. And Prince Mohammed is

overhauling the country in the

0:16:260:16:30

economy. He has a lot of ambitious

economic plans. American business

0:16:300:16:34

has a big role to play in that. He's

coming to America to interact with a

0:16:340:16:41

lot of business leaders across the

country. Some of them Saudi Arabia

0:16:410:16:46

will be investing their companies

through its public investment fund,

0:16:460:16:48

but many others it is inviting to

invest and participate in vision

0:16:480:16:53

2030, the masterplan to restructure

the Saudi economy. So there is a lot

0:16:530:16:57

on the table and a lot of shared

interest.

So that is what the Saudis

0:16:570:17:03

want, what they don't want is

criticism of Saudi Arabia's war in

0:17:030:17:07

Yemen and there is this resolution

going forwards in the US Senate, a

0:17:070:17:12

lot of criticism from Congress about

the role Saudi Arabia is playing in

0:17:120:17:16

Yemen, especially that something

like 5,000 civilians have died in

0:17:160:17:19

that war. Should Mohammed bin Salman

not the answering those questions in

0:17:190:17:24

America as well?

Well, this

resolution in Congress and it is a

0:17:240:17:30

bit of domestic politics getting

mixed up with foreign policy because

0:17:300:17:33

also, the senators are using that to

try and restrict the war powers act

0:17:330:17:39

and the power of the President to

commit forces overseas. So they are

0:17:390:17:43

really using the subject more to

control the presidency than

0:17:430:17:46

particularly focusing on the Yemen

issue. Yemen is a tragedy, wars are

0:17:460:17:53

tragedies and Saudi Arabia is aware

of that and going out of its way to

0:17:530:17:58

address the humanitarian problems.

But Saudi Arabia's Security has been

0:17:580:18:02

threatened. It sees a militia allied

to around growing on its Southern

0:18:020:18:07

border and it felt it had to take

action. People who are not

0:18:070:18:10

threatened, or far away from the

border, can afford to be more

0:18:100:18:15

judgmental about it. But if your

security is threatened as a

0:18:150:18:18

government, you have a

responsibility to act and

0:18:180:18:23

unfortunately, they always cause

human suffering.

Thank you very much

0:18:230:18:27

for joining us. Important visit and

important issues. And we will return

0:18:270:18:32

to that later.

0:18:320:18:34

Another shooting in another

school in America.

0:18:340:18:36

Two students have been injured

at a high school in Maryland -

0:18:360:18:41

not far from the US capital.

0:18:410:18:42

The shooter died in hospital

after engaging in gunfire

0:18:420:18:44

with the school's security officer.

0:18:440:18:47

Officials say one female and one

male student are still in critical

0:18:470:18:49

condition in hospital.

0:18:490:18:56

This incident comes just four days

before the March For Our Lives

0:18:560:18:59

protest takes place in Washington,

urging lawmakers to support

0:18:590:19:01

stricter gun control laws.

0:19:010:19:03

Students coming from all around the

country this weekend. And that

0:19:030:19:06

shooting will be very much in their

minds, as will be the shooting in

0:19:060:19:10

Florida. There is one aspect of this

which is quite interesting. That is

0:19:100:19:18

that the school, what you call them

in America? The law enforcement

0:19:180:19:22

officer.

Security officer.

0:19:220:19:24

He was involved in shooting the

shooter. That would be flagged up by

0:19:240:19:30

Donald Trump, who has advocated for

that.

0:19:300:19:33

Yes, they are all all. Is. This was

on my local news this morning in

0:19:330:19:38

Washington. -- they are all terrible

stories. The shooter had a

0:19:380:19:45

relationship with the girl in the

school and that may have

0:19:450:19:47

precipitated this, but it seems

different from Park and because the

0:19:470:19:51

officer responded in one minute and

was there engaging with the shooter.

0:19:510:19:56

Maybe there could have been more

share and people killed, but this

0:19:560:19:59

much will revive focus on this

issue.

0:19:590:20:03

We focus a lot on that -- natural

tragedies, but not this one.

0:20:030:20:11

It has been exactly six months

since Hurricane Maria struck the US

0:20:110:20:14

territory of Puerto Rico -

and the island is still

0:20:140:20:16

suffering the consequences.

0:20:160:20:20

At the time the storm ripped

a deadly path of destruction

0:20:200:20:22

but today hundreds of thousands

still haven't had their

0:20:220:20:25

power restored or help

with rebuilding homes.

0:20:250:20:26

The US Government has been

criticised for a lack

0:20:260:20:29

of urgency and response.

0:20:290:20:30

In the first of two reports this

week, Aleem Maqbool looks at how

0:20:300:20:33

the disaster has changed life

in Puerto Rico and where

0:20:330:20:35

the greatest needs remain.

0:20:350:20:43

There are sights in Puerto Rico that

can look like the hurricane

0:20:430:20:46

struck just yesterday.

0:20:460:20:48

Everyone has a tale of trauma

still fresh in the mind.

0:20:480:20:50

We grabbed what we could

and ran out, she says.

0:20:500:20:52

But everywhere was blocked.

0:20:520:20:56

We managed to get up

there and we heard the noise.

0:20:560:20:59

The house just came

away and collapsed.

0:20:590:21:01

The problem is, in six months,

little has moved on.

0:21:010:21:04

She and her family run pipes

from a nearby spring to get water

0:21:040:21:11

to the abandoned building

where they've been living.

0:21:110:21:13

And there is still no power.

0:21:130:21:17

So what help have they had

from the American agencies here?

0:21:170:21:22

We applied for help,

but we were told we weren't

0:21:220:21:24

entitled to any, she says.

0:21:240:21:26

We've put in an appeal, but we're

still waiting for an answer.

0:21:260:21:28

Puerto Ricans are American citizens.

0:21:290:21:30

They can go backwards

and forwards to the US mainland

0:21:300:21:32

as they please.

0:21:320:21:36

And crucially, they're entitled

to the same disaster response

0:21:360:21:38

from Washington as any other

Americans.

0:21:380:21:41

You'll find very few

here who believe that

0:21:410:21:42

that is what they got.

0:21:430:21:49

The family of Raul Jiminez believe

he could still be alive if there had

0:21:490:21:52

been a more urgent response.

0:21:520:21:53

After the storm, the clinic

where he got dialysis

0:21:530:21:55

was without electricity.

0:21:550:21:56

It meant patients would have

to miss treatments or wait

0:21:560:21:59

hours hoping to be seen.

0:21:590:22:01

He was in the wheelchair quiet...

0:22:010:22:04

Died.

0:22:040:22:07

He died in the line,

waiting for treatment?

0:22:070:22:09

Died in the line.

0:22:090:22:14

Any true count of the number

who were killed by the hurricane

0:22:140:22:17

would include people like Raul.

0:22:170:22:20

But until now, the official

figures doesn't.

0:22:200:22:25

The government want to show some

kind of numbers that

0:22:250:22:28

is not the reality.

0:22:280:22:34

They want us to believe

that all is OK.

0:22:340:22:36

Under pressure, the government has

ordered a recount of those

0:22:360:22:38

killed by Hurricane Maria.

0:22:390:22:40

Some estimate the new number

could be nearly 20 times

0:22:400:22:42

the original figure.

0:22:420:22:43

And all the while, for so many,

the suffering continues.

0:22:430:22:51

Aleem is now back in Washington

and joins us now to talk

0:22:510:22:53

about what he found on his trip.

0:22:540:22:55

How is it possible the richest

country in the world cannot put the

0:22:550:22:59

power back on in Puerto Rico?

I

suppose it has to be remembered

0:22:590:23:03

firstly that logistically, this is

arguably the most difficult natural

0:23:030:23:08

disaster the US has had to deal

with. It is an Ireland of 3.5

0:23:080:23:13

million people and the power grid

was almost totally destroyed.

0:23:130:23:18

Certainly well over 85% of the grid

was destroyed, so it has taken time.

0:23:180:23:22

But there is a sense that from

Puerto Ricans we spoke to that they

0:23:220:23:28

did not feel they were being treated

like other Americans. And they had

0:23:280:23:32

complaints not just about the

American Federal response, but about

0:23:320:23:35

incompetence and even corruption

within their own administration as

0:23:350:23:41

well. So that was their complaint.

But certainly, the Americans will

0:23:410:23:45

point to the fact that in the

capital, San Juan, much of the power

0:23:450:23:52

has been restored, although you will

see a lot of traffic lights still

0:23:520:23:55

out and a lot of traffic accidents.

But when you get into the rural

0:23:550:24:01

areas, the sad thing was, we go to

some of these places and people

0:24:010:24:03

would say they have not seen any

work being done, they have not been

0:24:030:24:07

told when they will have worked on,

when they will get their power back.

0:24:070:24:11

And believe me, at the beginning of

this crisis after the hurricane, we

0:24:110:24:15

lived for a couple of days, me and

our team, without power. It was

0:24:150:24:20

extremely frustrating. These people

had been doing it for six months and

0:24:200:24:24

it is perhaps no surprise that the

suicide rate in the Puerto Rico has

0:24:240:24:29

increased dramatically as well over

that time.

0:24:290:24:32

Thanks very much. It is great that

you got back. Before we go, sad

0:24:320:24:37

story.

0:24:370:24:39

The last remaining male northern

white rhinoceros has died,

0:24:390:24:41

bringing the sub-species one step

closer to extinction.

0:24:410:24:45

Yes, the 45-year-old rhino,

called "Sudan", was put down

0:24:450:24:48

after suffering an illness related

to old age.

0:24:480:24:49

Only two other northern white rhinos

are now left - both females.

0:24:490:24:59

45-year-old white man looking

extent, that is not make me think of

0:25:000:25:06

anyone! You met Sudan, but you could

not match his tinder profile. I

0:25:060:25:12

never thought I would ask you if you

had a tender profile but he did, and

0:25:120:25:16

he said, I perform well under

pressure, I liked eat grass and

0:25:160:25:21

chill in the mud. Not you. 6-foot

tall and £5,000, if it matters, I

0:25:210:25:26

love that! A rhino with a Sudan

profile!

0:25:260:25:32

Why did you leave out the bids, the

fake of my species literally depends

0:25:320:25:37

on me? That is the most relevant

bit.

0:25:370:25:40

I got stuck!

I tried that years ago, it tried 20

0:25:400:25:46

years for that to work!

0:25:460:25:49

This is Beyond 100

Days, from the BBC.

0:25:490:25:51

Coming up for viewers on the BBC

News Channel and BBC World News...

0:25:510:25:54

US authorities are investigating

whether a fourth bombing in Texas

0:25:540:25:56

is the work of a serial attacker.

0:25:560:25:58

Two people have been

killed in recent weeks.

0:25:580:26:00

We'll hear from a former

Deputy Director of the FBI,

0:26:000:26:02

for his take on the matter.

0:26:020:26:05

Good evening. The first day of the

astronomical spring and a fair

0:26:100:26:17

amount of sunshine. Splendid

afternoon across Scotland. Blue

0:26:170:26:21

skies through the day. Across

England and Wales, after a bright

0:26:210:26:24

stars, more cloud around in central

areas. It stayed dry in Northampton

0:26:240:26:30

but some source and spots of rain

and sleet. Tomorrow, the weather

0:26:300:26:36

comes from the Atlantic. On the

satellite image, cloud is gripping

0:26:360:26:40

towards us. The clear breaks across

Scotland and Northern Ireland will

0:26:400:26:44

drift South across England and

Wales. Clearing skies here,

0:26:440:26:47

temperatures drop in the furthest.

After initial frost in Scotland and

0:26:470:26:52

Northern Ireland, rain spreads to

the Hebrides and many areas frost

0:26:520:26:55

free. Frost to eastern parts of

Scotland but why do Frosty across

0:26:550:27:00

England and Wales. The coldest

conditions in the West Midlands,

0:27:000:27:03

Wales and North West England. -4, -6

tomorrow morning. Chilly morning

0:27:030:27:08

commute but lovely bright day for

much of England and Wales. Early

0:27:080:27:13

mist and fog clears. It clouds over

a bit but still we have dry weather.

0:27:130:27:19

Further North, morning brightness

but already cloudy in Western

0:27:190:27:22

Scotland and Northern Ireland with

occasional rain. Heavier rain on the

0:27:220:27:27

hell is spreading towards Cumbria,

Northern England and North Wales

0:27:270:27:29

later. And some rain in the East of

Scotland. The cloud breaks here into

0:27:290:27:35

the afternoon, it could hit 12

degrees in Aberdeenshire. After the

0:27:350:27:39

chilly start, even than Wales

achieving 7-10dC but still feeling

0:27:390:27:43

cool in Northern England with a

cloud in place. Even here, milder

0:27:430:27:47

air on Thursday which pushes in off

the Atlantic. Ick. By the end of the

0:27:470:27:52

week but still, winds off the

Atlantic so nowhere near as cold.

0:27:520:27:57

After patchy rain into Thursday, it

brightens up to eastern areas with

0:27:570:28:01

sunny spells. Clouding over in the

West without breaks of rain later,

0:28:010:28:05

strung together. And is, but all in

double big temperatures, 12, 13, 14

0:28:050:28:11

Celsius in some parts of eastern

Scotland. Rain on Thursday night and

0:28:110:28:16

into Friday which clears eastern

areas on Friday, sunny spells here

0:28:160:28:19

and showers from the West. They

could be heavy with hale and

0:28:190:28:23

thunder, blustery day with longer

spells a rain into Western Scotland

0:28:230:28:27

and the North of Northern Ireland

later. Temperatures still into

0:28:270:28:30

double figures.

US authorities are

bomber is on the loose in Texas.

0:31:110:31:13

A parcel bomb exploded at a FedEx

depot near San Antonio today -

0:31:130:31:16

the fourth bomb to go off

in the state in xx weeks.

0:31:160:31:22

-- in the state.

0:31:230:31:24

Two people have died

in these bombings,

0:31:240:31:26

two more have been injured.

0:31:260:31:27

There's so far no indication

who's behind them or even

0:31:270:31:30

whether they're coordinated.

0:31:300:31:31

But 500 FBI agents are now

working on the case.

0:31:310:31:33

Today president Trump

addressed the incidents.

0:31:330:31:35

This is obviously a very,

very sick individual

0:31:350:31:36

or maybe individuals.

0:31:360:31:37

These are sick people

and we will get to the bottom of it.

0:31:370:31:41

We will be very strong.

0:31:410:31:42

We have all sorts of federal

agencies over there right

0:31:420:31:45

now, we're searching

what is going on in Austin,

0:31:450:31:47

a great place, tremendous place.

0:31:470:31:55

And for more on the

investigation into this case

0:31:550:31:57

I spoke a short time ago

with Ron Hosko, Former Deputy

0:31:570:32:00

Director of the FBI.

0:32:000:32:01

Ron, this is a really curious case

what is happening down in Texas.

0:32:010:32:04

What is your read on it?

0:32:040:32:06

It is very concerning.

0:32:060:32:07

First we had a round

of bombs that were,

0:32:070:32:09

what sounds like hand delivered,

presumably to targets of the bomber,

0:32:090:32:13

you know, specific targets.

0:32:130:32:17

Presumably his desired victims.

0:32:170:32:24

And a handful of people injured.

0:32:240:32:31

And then some relative silence

for a few days and now we have had

0:32:310:32:34

some additional bombings that have

come using a different

0:32:340:32:36

methodology, not hand-delivered

but run with a tripwire.

0:32:360:32:38

Another one put into FedEx,

the delivery chain, for FedEx.

0:32:380:32:45

And some additional ones

in the delivery chain

0:32:450:32:47

now that are being looked

at by law enforcement.

0:32:470:32:49

So the methodology has changed.

0:32:490:32:53

We do not know if the subject has

had these devices built already over

0:32:530:32:57

time or has them stockpiled.

0:32:570:33:01

Has the additional components

for additional devices.

0:33:010:33:03

It is very concerning.

0:33:030:33:09

You say this subject, you are

assuming that it is one person?

0:33:090:33:13

I am, you know if we look back

at bombers over time they tend

0:33:130:33:17

to be angry individuals

who have a purpose in mind.

0:33:170:33:22

Whether it is, you know,

the Unabomber, you know it's

0:33:220:33:26

certainly a very solitary person,

very capable and deadly,

0:33:260:33:32

going to the killer of Judge Vance

and other bombers, other bombings

0:33:320:33:35

in Georgia and in the Florida area.

0:33:350:33:44

Eric Robert Rudolph,

the Centennial Park bomber,

0:33:440:33:45

who also bombed an abortion

provider in Alabama.

0:33:450:33:48

These folks tend to work

by themselves, they do not

0:33:480:33:50

tend to be in teams,

people working in concert.

0:33:500:33:55

So it remains to be seen.

0:33:550:33:56

Maybe there are other

people and of course

0:33:560:33:58

that is what the appeal

is through the media,

0:33:580:34:02

by law enforcement now,

for the public to come out as well.

0:34:020:34:06

So if you're running this

case what are the clues

0:34:060:34:08

you are looking at?

0:34:080:34:10

Well first there are a couple

of different channels

0:34:100:34:12

going on right now.

0:34:120:34:14

One is the forensics of the devices

that they can recover.

0:34:140:34:19

In the post-blast investigation

that is very detailed examination

0:34:190:34:23

of anything that came out

of the already exploded devices.

0:34:230:34:28

They're looking for DNA,

for fingerprints, essentially

0:34:280:34:31

the bomber's signature

and what type of initiation,

0:34:310:34:34

what were the explosive components

and how was it constructed.

0:34:340:34:39

What was the shrapnel.

0:34:390:34:41

So they're looking for all of that.

0:34:410:34:44

They're looking at the victimology

to see if there is any

0:34:440:34:46

link to the victims

or intended victims.

0:34:460:34:48

What are you doing to try

to prevent future attacks?

0:34:480:34:51

Well I'm doing what they're doing,

which is going to media,

0:34:510:34:53

recognising that this

is the opportunity for the best

0:34:530:34:56

partnership between law enforcement,

through the media, to the public.

0:34:560:35:04

They may have 500 agents

on the ground down there

0:35:040:35:06

but that is no match for thousands

and thousands of eyes

0:35:060:35:09

of the community, of

a loved one, a neighbour.

0:35:090:35:14

Somebody who sees something

of concern and says

0:35:140:35:16

you know who did that,

that is my next-door neighbour.

0:35:160:35:18

I see him in his garage at night.

0:35:180:35:24

So that has to be leveraged,

that is what they're trying to do.

0:35:240:35:27

If you see something, say something.

0:35:270:35:29

Thank you very much.

0:35:290:35:30

You're welcome.

0:35:300:35:40

Gary O'Donoghue joins us

live now from Austin.

0:35:460:35:50

While they are saying nothing and

they give up West conference and

0:35:500:35:55

Whitley refused to answer specific

questions. They've been on the scene

0:35:550:35:57

by about ten or 11 hours by that

stage was up compare that to what

0:35:570:36:02

happened on Sunday, by Monday

morning they were telling us the

0:36:020:36:05

bombing there was linked to the

three previous ones even though it

0:36:050:36:08

was a different kind of delivery,

this tripwire across the pavement.

0:36:080:36:13

So I think either they're having

some trouble down there working out

0:36:130:36:17

exactly what was in the bomb or they

are giving information back for some

0:36:170:36:21

particular reason. They're not

saying, not confirming it was a

0:36:210:36:26

package destined for them to or had

come from there in the first place.

0:36:260:36:32

Or that it contained the shrapnel.

One interesting fact is one of the

0:36:320:36:38

relatives of the men injured on

Sunday, those two young white men

0:36:380:36:43

who were walking along and trip the

tripwire, one of the relatives of

0:36:430:36:47

the men said he thought his son had

had nails driven into his knees by

0:36:470:36:51

the explosion. That would be an

interesting connection. But at this

0:36:510:36:54

stage there not tying this book

bombing in 18 days to both other

0:36:540:36:58

once just yet.

I was reading today

one of the most longest-running FBI

0:36:580:37:05

investigations was backed into the

Unabomber. It took them a long time

0:37:050:37:10

of course to get in touch with him

and find out what his motives were.

0:37:100:37:14

Are they looking with regards this

investigation at the signature of

0:37:140:37:18

these bombs because they have been

different, one was a tripwire, won a

0:37:180:37:24

parcel bomb on a doorstep presumably

this one a bit different. Someone

0:37:240:37:27

who has a platter of skills.

While

this one might not be different to

0:37:270:37:33

the first three if you think about

it. They said FedEx, the police said

0:37:330:37:39

FedEx was not the target told could

well be that this was a parcel bomb

0:37:390:37:43

aimed for a specific individual like

the first three. That went off

0:37:430:37:46

prematurely. That is a perfectly

viable possibility. Of course there

0:37:460:37:51

will look at the mechanisms inside

the bombs. Initially they said the

0:37:510:37:55

first three bombings, they contained

readily available household items

0:37:550:38:00

that had been constructed. They're

not saying anything like as much

0:38:000:38:05

detail as that now but if you were a

member with the Unabomber, it took

0:38:050:38:08

years for them to catch him. Those

bombings were much more spread apart

0:38:080:38:13

and eventually of course the

Washington Post and New York Times

0:38:130:38:19

published his old manifesto sometime

before the court in this stage no

0:38:190:38:22

idea of the motivation as far as we

can tell.

Of course Austin is a big

0:38:220:38:30

place but it does start to play on

people's minds when we have five,

0:38:300:38:36

then they cannot catch this guy.

Back in 2002 they had this sniper in

0:38:360:38:41

Washington snooping - sniping at the

back of a van and you get this fear

0:38:410:38:49

and suspicion and worry.

I was Lily

in Washington at that time and when

0:38:490:38:55

this happened in Austin you think

back to it. It just imprints itself

0:38:550:38:59

on your memory and when the sniper

was out there my kids could not

0:38:590:39:04

leave their classrooms during

playground time, they never went

0:39:040:39:05

outside. We did not go to the park

after school just because we did not

0:39:050:39:11

know whether a school playground or

park was going to be the next

0:39:110:39:14

target. So desperately limited

peoples lives and I would be if you

0:39:140:39:18

went to playground in Austin at the

moment I bet they would be empty and

0:39:180:39:23

stop because you never know if

you're going to be the next target.

0:39:230:39:26

And they will do until they find out

who's this.

0:39:260:39:32

In the last half an hour -

further revelations have surfaced

0:39:320:39:35

on the work Cambridge Analytica did

for the Donald Trump

0:39:350:39:37

presidential election campaign.

0:39:370:39:39

In a report on Channel 4 News the

frame appeared to claim that it ran

0:39:390:39:44

key parts of the strategy for Donald

Trump. It was secretly recorded

0:39:440:39:51

discussing coordination between the

Trump campaign and other sources.

0:39:510:40:01

Let's bring in our North America

Editor Jon Sopel who's

0:40:010:40:03

been sitting across the latest

revelations from Channel 4.

0:40:030:40:10

That is focusing on the role

specifically in the Trump campaign.

0:40:100:40:15

What have the company been saying.

While they have been caught

0:40:150:40:18

red-handed with their hands in the

cookie jar it seems. Either

0:40:180:40:23

Cambridge Analytica are full of BS

or they have been up to no good. It

0:40:230:40:29

is hard to draw any other conclusion

from listening to what has been

0:40:290:40:32

said. They are either up to Black

Ops and honey traps and blackmail

0:40:320:40:38

and covert recordings and all the

rest of it or they are making it all

0:40:380:40:42

up in which case neither of them are

a good look. What is interesting

0:40:420:40:45

about what came out this evening on

Channel 4 News, the suggestion of

0:40:450:40:52

just how and for their work in the

Trump campaign. And help open it

0:40:520:40:55

was. The cost if you think about the

way political campaign finance is

0:40:550:41:00

structured in the US there is a

strict separation between what are

0:41:000:41:03

called these super packs, the

funding bodies, and the Trump

0:41:030:41:07

campaign. It seems much information

was bleeding between the two and a

0:41:070:41:11

chief executive of Cambridge and the

little girl who has been now

0:41:110:41:16

suspended as the company tries to

salvage its reputation, was making

0:41:160:41:19

it seem like yes, we were working

with everyone involved alongside and

0:41:190:41:25

I think that brings up some

questions about electoral finance

0:41:250:41:27

and electoral law in the US about

what they were up to.

Not just in

0:41:270:41:34

the US, clearly this is to be some

implication that Cambridge Analytica

0:41:340:41:38

has been involved in political

campaigns in Europe as well. And

0:41:380:41:45

perhaps not surprisingly seen Steve

Bannon initially appearing with the

0:41:450:41:48

National front in France as well.

Also someone who has been tied up

0:41:480:41:53

with Cambridge analytic.

Yes and

Steve Bannon was on the board of

0:41:530:41:57

Cambridge Analytica and the Mercer

family, very well-known in the as

0:41:570:42:01

being big funders of Donald Trump,

they were the people who got very

0:42:010:42:09

interested in Cambridge Analytica I

wanted to put Steve Bannon on the

0:42:090:42:13

board and so there is a close link

between Cambridge analytic and the

0:42:130:42:17

Trump organisation and if you look

at some of the Black Ops but went on

0:42:170:42:21

during the Trump campaign, the

smearing of Hillary Clinton,

0:42:210:42:25

Cambridge analytic in the latest bit

of covert recording there has been

0:42:250:42:29

released claimed responsibility for

all of it. They said they were the

0:42:290:42:33

masters of it, they designed the

strategy, delivered on it, they were

0:42:330:42:37

the ones who delivered the victory

to Donald Trump in 2016.

0:42:370:42:40

Uncomfortable place for the

president at the moment to have

0:42:400:42:44

someone like that saying yes, we did

it all. Because Donald Trump of

0:42:440:42:48

course I said it was his brilliance

that led to that election victory

0:42:480:42:52

and that he was the campaign

maestro. So I think huge problems

0:42:520:42:57

for the reputation of Cambridge

analytic. A couple of months ago we

0:42:570:43:00

had a British company, a PR company,

go under because what they did in

0:43:000:43:06

South Africa. This starts to look

like small beer compared to what

0:43:060:43:11

Cambridge analytic have been

training at least in these

0:43:110:43:14

undercover recordings.

Interesting,

Steve Bannon in Italy last week,

0:43:140:43:23

sitting down in the basement of

Trump Tower with the French National

0:43:230:43:27

front leader. The one thing I

suppose, on this issue, the campaign

0:43:270:43:35

would say they use Cambridge

Analytica for the primaries and when

0:43:350:43:40

Donald Trump got the ticket he was

using data from the RNC because in

0:43:400:43:44

their view that as more trustworthy.

So the question is are Cambridge

0:43:440:43:49

analytic over again just how much

they were involved.

That is the

0:43:490:43:56

question I posed at the start, are

they just dragging and full of hot

0:43:560:43:58

air and nonsense all by the two that

sort of activity. Either way not a

0:43:580:44:05

good position for them to be in and

they are suffering enormous

0:44:050:44:09

reputational damage as a company

because everyone thought it was a

0:44:090:44:16

genius company that had

extraordinary insights as a result

0:44:160:44:18

of algorithmic tests on opinion

forming and all the rest of it. That

0:44:180:44:22

informed where each individual voter

thought and what vulnerabilities

0:44:220:44:29

would be. It seems there was a lot

of old-fashioned dirty work going on

0:44:290:44:34

as well.

Thank you very much for

joining us and you are right,

0:44:340:44:41

resident Trump will not like the

idea that anywhere else was

0:44:410:44:45

responsible for his victory. --

President Trump.

0:44:450:44:56

It's been three years

since the outbreak of war in Yemen.

0:44:560:44:58

Houthi rebels - backed by Iran -

remain in control of large

0:44:580:45:01

parts of the country -

including the capital Sana'a.

0:45:010:45:03

Fighting them are forces loyal

to the former president -

0:45:030:45:06

who are being backed

by Saudi airstrikes.

0:45:060:45:07

It's impossible to say

exactly how many people

0:45:070:45:09

the war has killed -

but we know thousands of civilians

0:45:090:45:12

have died and millions more have

been displaced as a result

0:45:120:45:15

of the conflict.

0:45:150:45:16

Children have especially suffered -

with famine and the worst cholera

0:45:160:45:18

outbreak in history affecting

hundreds of thousands of youngsters.

0:45:180:45:20

I'm joined now by the BBC's

chief international

0:45:200:45:22

correspondent Lyse Doucet,

who has recently

0:45:220:45:24

returned from Yemen.

0:45:240:45:29

We have been watching Euro series

from the ground. The Saudi Crown

0:45:290:45:33

Prince is in Washington today,

afraid transactional relationship

0:45:330:45:37

with the Middle East at the moment.

The Americans despise the

0:45:370:45:41

administration is concerned not so

involved in what is going on

0:45:410:45:45

day-to-day but the Senate more so

because they talk today about

0:45:450:45:48

whether America should be involved.

There was a bipartisan effort in

0:45:480:45:53

Congress to stop America aid for the

Saudi campaign in Yemen because they

0:45:530:45:59

are accused of carrying out war

crimes with their bombing which has

0:45:590:46:03

killed a high level of civilian

casualties according to the UN. When

0:46:030:46:08

we were in Riyadh a few weeks ago

the Saudis so does their command and

0:46:080:46:13

control centre and how they adhere

to the higher standards of

0:46:130:46:16

targeting, they go through all the

laws of war, humanitarian law,

0:46:160:46:20

trying to establish which targets

are proper targets and which are

0:46:200:46:24

civilian targets and should be

avoided. And all of that, they seem

0:46:240:46:29

to take every precaution but the

reality is on the ground that homes

0:46:290:46:32

are being hit, children been hit and

even though we could not get to the

0:46:320:46:39

capital as the Saudis have put on

restrictions. We were able to get

0:46:390:46:43

people to film for us and the

stories that came back are

0:46:430:46:46

horrendous.

You have covered many

war zones and I just wondered if you

0:46:460:46:52

could project forward, do the

trajectory for the war, how long it

0:46:520:46:57

might last. The Saudis seem to be in

it to make sure that there will not

0:46:570:47:01

be extremist on their border and

verbal fight as long as it takes. So

0:47:010:47:05

what happens then question mark well

there are couple of red lines for

0:47:050:47:09

the Saudis, Festival Yemen is the

neighbour and right on their border

0:47:090:47:15

and more than that, the foodie

rebels have long-range mystic

0:47:150:47:20

missiles that can reach Riyadh.

Dashed the 30s. Second point, even

0:47:200:47:29

more importantly, when they see

Yemen and the Houthis they see their

0:47:290:47:36

archrival Iran on their border and

that is something they will not

0:47:360:47:40

countenance. That is certainly on

the agenda in Washington this week

0:47:400:47:43

in conversations with President

Trump.

Good to see you, wish we

0:47:430:47:48

could talk more. We have a lot of

stories to get through, a busy day.

0:47:480:48:04

Still to come - more

on the upcoming wedding

0:48:040:48:06

of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry -

and we can bring you important news

0:48:060:48:09

about the wedding cake.

0:48:090:48:14

A two year old girl has died

after the car she was in

0:48:140:48:17

plunged into a river in Wales.

0:48:170:48:18

Kiara Moore was pulled

from the vehicle in the River

0:48:180:48:21

in Cardigan near her family's

outdoor pursuits business.

0:48:210:48:23

Her father said she had been left

in the car while the driver got

0:48:230:48:27

cash from the office.

0:48:270:48:28

When the driver returned,

the car was missing

0:48:280:48:30

and initially feared stolen.

0:48:300:48:33

The little girl would have

celebrated her third

0:48:330:48:35

birthday next Tuesday.

0:48:350:48:36

Police officers say they're

investigating the incident and have

0:48:360:48:38

appealed for witnesses.

0:48:380:48:41

From Cardigan, Tomos Morgan reports.

0:48:410:48:45

Kara Moore, just two years old.

0:48:450:48:47

Had it not been for the tragic

events of yesterday afternoon,

0:48:470:48:50

she would have been celebrating her

third birthday a week today.

0:48:500:48:54

It's understood that two-year-old

Kiara was left in the silver mini

0:48:540:48:58

while a family member went

into offices nearby.

0:48:580:49:02

By the time the family

member returned the car

0:49:020:49:05

car had disappeared.

0:49:050:49:07

The police were contacted

and a search was under way.

0:49:070:49:10

They believed the car to be stolen.

0:49:100:49:12

It transpired that the car was in

the River Teifl just yards away.

0:49:120:49:15

The toddler was airlifted

to the university hospital

0:49:150:49:17

of Wales in Cardiff,

but doctors were

0:49:170:49:19

unable to revive her.

0:49:190:49:22

Young families in the town today

have been paying their own tributes

0:49:220:49:25

by laying flowers by the river.

0:49:250:49:29

She was a very lively little girl.

0:49:290:49:30

Very smiley.

0:49:300:49:32

Cheeky little smile

she had all the time.

0:49:320:49:34

She...

0:49:340:49:37

Her and her mum were always

together, always fun days out.

0:49:370:49:39

And...

0:49:390:49:41

She had a happy little life.

0:49:410:49:43

Short life, but a happy little life.

0:49:430:49:46

Commenting on Facebook,

Kiara's father thanked the work

0:49:460:49:49

of the emergency services whilst

also paying tribute to his

0:49:490:49:53

daughter saying she had

an "amazing but short life."

0:49:530:49:59

It's unclear as to how the Mini came

to be in the River Teifl as family

0:49:590:50:04

and friends mourn the loss of young

Kiara the investigation into exactly

0:50:040:50:07

what happened continues.

0:50:070:50:08

Tomos Morgan, BBC News, Cardigan.

0:50:080:50:18

The Environment

Secretary Michael Gove

0:50:210:50:22

says he's "disappointed"

that the European Union

0:50:220:50:24

will continue to set quotas on how

much fish can be caught off

0:50:240:50:28

the coast of Britain

during the "transition

0:50:280:50:29

period" after Brexit.

0:50:290:50:32

He's told the Commons

that the Government would seek

0:50:320:50:34

to take back control of its waters

at the end of 2020 when

0:50:340:50:37

the UK is due to leave

the Common Fisheries Policy.

0:50:370:50:40

Let's take a quick

listen to what he said.

0:50:400:50:45

There is a significant

prize at the end of

0:50:450:50:47

the implementation period

and

0:50:470:50:48

it is important that all of us

in every area except that the

0:50:480:50:52

implementation period is a necessary

step towards securing that prize.

0:50:520:50:55

For coastal communities

it is an opportunity

0:50:550:50:58

to revive economically,

for our marine environment it is an

0:50:580:51:00

opportunity to be

managed sustainably.

0:51:000:51:02

And it is critical that all of us

in the interests of the

0:51:020:51:05

whole nation keep our

eyes on that prize.

0:51:050:51:10

Well that's what the secretary

of state had to say,

0:51:100:51:13

but what do people in the industry

affected by the policy think?

0:51:130:51:16

To find out more let's talk

to Bertie Armstrong,

0:51:160:51:18

who is the Chief Executive

of the Scottish Fishermen's

0:51:180:51:20

Federation, and joins us

from Aberdeen in Scotland

0:51:200:51:25

Great to have you on the show.

Putting it bluntly, the reaction

0:51:250:51:30

we've seen today suggests the

fishing communities around the UK

0:51:300:51:33

just do not have confidence that the

government will look after their

0:51:330:51:37

interests.

In the run-up to this we

had expected that sovereignty would

0:51:370:51:42

be retained, but is not the same as

not negotiating and allowing other

0:51:420:51:48

nations to have fishing

opportunities in any implementation

0:51:480:51:49

period. But sovereignty was

considered for an extra 21 months so

0:51:490:51:57

we are not impressed with that. That

was not meant to be in the plan.

0:51:570:52:01

However as long as cast-iron

guarantees, we understand the bigger

0:52:010:52:08

picture, as long as cast-iron

guarantees are given that the

0:52:080:52:13

implementation period will not be

allowed to be used by the EU to put

0:52:130:52:16

in place longer term arrangements to

our detriment, then that will be

0:52:160:52:21

fine. The Common fisheries policy is

remarkably distorted. This morning

0:52:210:52:27

we spoke to the Danish industry on

the radio and Denmark catches 40

0:52:270:52:34

times more fish in UK waters then we

catch in their waters. Grossly

0:52:340:52:41

distorted and it needs sorting out.

So a delay in that is not impressive

0:52:410:52:44

but we understand the wider picture

and just as long as we are

0:52:440:52:48

guaranteed it will not actually get

worse.

What material impact could

0:52:480:52:53

this have on the livelihoods of

Scottish fishermen?

The material

0:52:530:52:58

affect of Brexit for fishermen, this

should be a happy success story of

0:52:580:53:05

Brexit. We retain, the value of fish

landed by the UK is about £130

0:53:050:53:13

million a year. We keep 40% of the

fish that leave our waters, 60% of

0:53:130:53:21

the fish that leave our waters do so

in the hands of other European

0:53:210:53:25

nations. So the impact is an annual

loss at today's prices of

0:53:250:53:30

approximately £1 billion. We want to

get on with progressively recovering

0:53:300:53:36

that. So that is the effect on the

livelihoods of the coastal

0:53:360:53:40

communities all around the UK. That

lack of economic activity. We're

0:53:400:53:45

keeping on the community nights

around Europe and that will not do.

0:53:450:53:51

Michael Gove said today in the House

of Commons that of course he comes

0:53:510:53:56

from fishing stocks, his

grandparents were fishermen, his

0:53:560:53:58

father was involved in the fishing

industry as well. From what I'm

0:53:580:54:01

hearing, speaking to MPs, he is

fighting a battle within the Cabinet

0:54:010:54:06

to protect fisheries and take back

control but the Treasury sees it as

0:54:060:54:10

something to throw on the table as a

pawn for top card for cash, if you

0:54:100:54:16

will.

While the Chancellor made a

pretty sinister statement two

0:54:160:54:19

weekends ago on the fact that we

would be out and we would be free.

0:54:190:54:26

So that is not the case. We regard

ourselves right now is frankly

0:54:260:54:31

having been let down. There are many

politicians including Michael Gove

0:54:310:54:36

who has been a consistent supporter,

who supported us boldly and stuck

0:54:360:54:40

their necks out. But it was the

government 's both governments,

0:54:400:54:46

which let us down. One has kept this

in the CFB for another 20 months and

0:54:460:54:54

then they would have us back in it

full-time.

Thank you very much for

0:54:540:54:57

joining us. We have to leave it

there.

0:54:570:55:01

Kensington Palace has announced more

detail on the wedding

0:55:010:55:03

of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

0:55:030:55:07

They've said the cake

for the wedding will be made

0:55:070:55:09

by pastry chef Claire Ptak,

owner of the tiny Violet

0:55:090:55:11

Bakery in East London.

0:55:120:55:20

You needed that information!

0:55:200:55:23

The cake chosen

by the couple will be

0:55:230:55:25

a lemon elderflower cake,

covered in buttercream

0:55:250:55:26

and decorated with fresh flowers.

0:55:260:55:30

Ms Ptak says that she is 'delighted'

to be chosen and that she shares

0:55:300:55:33

the same values as Prince Harry

and Meghan Markle - about food

0:55:330:55:37

provenance, sustainability,

seasonality and flavour.

0:55:370:55:46

You read that with a lot of feeling!

We're going to do a special from

0:55:500:55:55

Windsor the day before the wedding!

Maybe we will try some cake. I'm not
