Welcome to Outside Source. It Is One Hour Of International Use. . | :00:11. | :00:19. | |
Michelle Platini and Sepp Blatter have been banned from football for | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
eight eels the 2,000,000-dollar payment. I will fight. I will fight | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
for me and fever. Bacteria that is resistant to the... | :00:30. | :00:45. | |
Spain's prime Minister is looking for a coalition partners but | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
uncertainty is certain for a while. We will bring you up-to-date on this | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
landslide were close to 100 people are missing. And I will play early | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
awkward moment Miss universe was awarded to the wrong contestant. -- | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
I will play the awkward moment. Sepp Blatter is Fifa president, | :01:05. | :01:21. | |
Michel Platini is head of Uefa, football's governing body. The two | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
most powerful people in football and both suspended by Fifa for eight | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
years. Well, Sepp Blatter went on the defensive with a press | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
conference this morning. He invoked Nelson Mandela. To some, not the | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
obvious thing to do when you respond to an eight-year suspension over the | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
two mullion dollar payment, but that is what he did. We will hear some of | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
that press conference. I am sorry that I am still somewhere a punching | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
ball. I am still a punching ball and I am | :01:51. | :02:05. | |
sorry for Fifa. This gentleman's agreement was made in 1988 just | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
after the World Cup. In France. Michel Platini approached me, and I | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
approached him because we were together there, and he said he would | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
like to work for Fifa and I said it is wonderful if you come to Fifa. | :02:22. | :02:29. | |
The said, I am a very expensive man. I said, that is OK but we cannot pay | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
you know. They deny the existence of such an agreement. And we have given | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
the same answer about this agreement. The same answer. And the | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
books now written, it is not relevant what the two presidents | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
have said. You know what that means? That we are liars. I am ashamed. If | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
you go in-depth about what has been you go in-depth about what has been | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
presented and how this has been done, with the support of you, I | :03:03. | :03:11. | |
have never cheated with money. To have given 2 million to buy votes, | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
votes for whom? I am back, and doing better. I have the support of my | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
daughter. I have the support of Linda, my lover. And they have the | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
support still from a lot of people inside Fifa and members of the | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
Executive committee of these and they share with me, and also | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
European members, they share with me that what has happened today is not | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
the correct way to deal inside Fifa. That is the approach Sepp Blatter | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
took. Michel Platini boycotted the evening today but he did release a | :03:49. | :03:50. | |
statement. In that he said... He is the chief of Uefa, which | :03:51. | :04:02. | |
protect its own statement... Covering the Fifa crisis in the last | :04:03. | :04:23. | |
few months has been the BBC's Richard Conway. He is in Zurich at | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
Fifa HQ and I have been speaking to him about Sepp Blatter's options | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
looking ahead. Sepp Blatter was already going to be | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
handing all into a new Fifa president on February the 26th, that | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
is when an election will be held. Michel Platini wanted to be part of | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
that election but he now faces a very tough legal fight to try and be | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
part of that ballot. But, yes, Sepp Blatter wanted to leave on his own | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
That is what rankles most were Sepp not being forced out in disgrace. | :04:53. | :05:00. | |
That is what rankles most were Sepp Blatter to make. | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
And that I think is what rankles most with Sepp Blatter | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
He decided that, you know, he feels he is an innocent party, | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
he is aggrieved, and he feels ultimately that the ethics committee | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
do not have the power to act this way, to dismiss him from office. | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
He says it is only the 209 member nations of Fifa that have the power | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
So it is an indignant performance, and angry | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
performance at times, from Sepp Blatter at a news | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
But he is absolutely positive that he can fight against this ban | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
and return in February to say goodbye to world football | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
and do it on his terms, and leave not under | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
And you believe this is now an existential threat to Fifa? | :05:36. | :05:49. | |
There have been questioned in the Swiss | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
with the US to try and bring Fifa down. | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
Now the Swiss government denied that and said that is not | :05:56. | :05:57. | |
But there are people and campaigners who feel enough is now finally | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
enough and that Fifa has to essentially | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
into administration and come back reborn as a new entity. | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
People within Fifa itself say actually, | :06:11. | :06:11. | |
that is not the case, we have a reform plan | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
that is working, that is going to be instigated, that is going to be put | :06:15. | :06:23. | |
into action, that is going to bring in the things that are going | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
to restore Fifa's reputation and integrity in due | :06:27. | :06:28. | |
There are five election candidates as well who feel the same | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
But it faces a huge battle both legally and in terms of the court | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
It is an enormous challenge to turn things around. | :06:37. | :06:42. | |
and of course there is further pain to come | :06:43. | :06:43. | |
The US Department of Justice has made that very clear, | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
Let's switch to Spain. The Reuters chief has a quote here... One of the | :06:48. | :07:03. | |
reasons that has happened is The headlines: one, the new political | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
power in Spain which has been an anti-austerity movement. Let me show | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
you the numbers. Podemos was not the biggest party by any means. What | :07:12. | :07:16. | |
this means is no party got a majority, he's the College and | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
talks. Our reporter has more. It is really complicated and there | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
is a lot of uncertainty. I met a friend to is an experienced | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
journalist and scratching her head tonight. Lots of people were. All | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
the parties are giving some clues about who they will probably not do | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
a deal with to go into coalition. Unsurprisingly, the Socialist party | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
have, it second and it was their worst ever result since the 1970s | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
when Spain became a democracy. They came second but they will not do a | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
deal with the Popular Party, the current Prime Minister, which came | :07:51. | :07:53. | |
first in the number of votes. It is all about the new players. I was at | :07:54. | :08:01. | |
a press conference today for the new and hysterically movements Podemos. | :08:02. | :08:03. | |
They have really consolidated their position. -- and he -- and just | :08:04. | :08:15. | |
editing movement. The fore-mac University professor came out and | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
talked about the differences around Spain and the different | :08:19. | :08:21. | |
nationalities, as he put it in the Basque country and Catalonia and | :08:22. | :08:28. | |
Valencia. Why did he do that? Partly because that is his politics but | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
also I think he has left the door open for nationalist parties in the | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
Basque country and Catalonia to possibly do a deal with parties on a | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
life, including his party. If you look at the maths, if the Popular | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
Party cannot find the necessary allies, and they need at least two | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
other parties to form a Government, probably more, then admit fault of | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
the Socialists to get a coalition of the left. Podemos Would be part of | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
that and that coalition would need the support of Catalan and Basque | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
nationalist parties. Podemos Has come out in their manifesto and | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
said, we would have a referendum in Catalonia and referendum, | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
independence from Spain. That was one of the red lines they keep me | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
today about going into Government with other parties. Let's look | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
through what could happen in Spain. The 13th of January is an important | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
day. The Minister will be nominated and will | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
then have to form a Government. That will be formed by those coalition | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
talks. In the next 5.5 weeks, if this effort fails to form a | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
Government, another candidate can be nominated and can also seek | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
Parliamentary approval. If that does not go to plan, then we get the 20th | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
of February and if there's still no Government men, we're back another | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
election. We shall see if we ever reach that point. Let's talk about | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
the health study that has got a lot of interest online. Bacteria that | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
antibiotic of last resort has been resists | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
antibiotic of last resort has been discovered here in the UK. The | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
threat to human health is thought to be pretty low. It is worrying | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
nonetheless. Let's get some more from James Gallagher has written | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
this article online. More bad news for you. | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
Let's start off with what has been discovered in the UK. Going back one | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
month, we can go to China where this was discovered for the first time. | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
It was a drug, the drug of last resort, and when all other drugs | :10:28. | :10:36. | |
fail, used The headlines: two. Bat-mac -- you would use colistin. | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
Different countries around the world have said, we had better check this | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
is not here too. We have had reports from other parts of Europe and Asia | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
and today the UK is confirming as well that colistin is affected. What | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
makes it the antibiotic of last resort? You cannot take it orderly, | :10:58. | :11:05. | |
it has to be injected. It has a lot of side-effects and it would always | :11:06. | :11:07. | |
be the end of the queue of drugs you would want to give someone. The | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
whole point is that this is the significant one that doctors could | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
always turn to in the past. Nowhere in the world didn't used to be | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
is. One phrase in your article is. | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
talked about the possible antibiotic apocalypse that could put medicine | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
into the dark ages. Really? That is the real concern. If we go back 100 | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
years, there was not actively take resistance anywhere. But we have | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
used more antibiotics and resistance is a growing problem. The more we | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
use it, the more bacteria become resistant to infections. Now every | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
piece of the puzzle is there to acquire resistance from different | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
bacterial species, because that is what they do. They share resistance | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
from each other and soon become resistant to everything. Not only is | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
that a problem with infection itself, but think of all the time | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
you use antibiotics at the moment. If you had surgery or chemotherapy | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
or an organ transplant, he would be given antibiotics to keep your | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
immune system going in those horrible times. If you have | :12:14. | :12:20. | |
those cornerstones of medicine away. Thank you for updating us. If you | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
are watching it, on the BBC News that, you can click on the Health | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
have and see James's story. Later on, we will hear about one of | :12:31. | :12:35. | |
India's best-known yoga gurus, who has proving himself -- been proving | :12:36. | :12:48. | |
himself a very astute businessman. A police officer and a committee | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
support offers have been found guilty of misconduct over the murder | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
paedophile. He repeatedly called 2013 amid false claims he was | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
paedophile. He repeatedly called police for help in the days before | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
his murder. His sister spoke outside Bristol Crown Court. | :13:05. | :13:16. | |
They will face disciplinary proceedings and charges of racism | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
elimination against four officers. We believe that the failure to | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
protect our brother's life because of institutional racism. We need | :13:30. | :13:38. | |
systemic change to address this racism. We dedicate her brother's | :13:39. | :13:45. | |
life to all other victims of hate crime in the hope that lives can be | :13:46. | :13:47. | |
protected. This is Outside Source Ten Double. | :13:48. | :14:03. | |
Only Story Is That Two Of Football's Most Powerful Leaders, Sepp Blatter | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
And Michel Platini, Have Been Suspended For Eight Years For | :14:08. | :14:14. | |
Football Audit Activities. Let's bring in a main stories from BBC | :14:15. | :14:16. | |
World Service. BBC Russian reports on the state | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
of the data recorder - or black box - recovered | :14:20. | :14:21. | |
from the Russian jet The Russian military says nearly | :14:22. | :14:23. | |
all the memory chips are so badly damaged, that it's impossible | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
to extract any data. These pictures of the so-called | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
northern lights are on the BBC News Let me bring you the latest from | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
Ben Gadsby-Williams Let me bring you the latest from | :14:37. | :14:56. | |
Afghanistan. A number The violence is | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
an area of the Afghan capital The violence is not just inside the | :15:04. | :15:21. | |
capital. These are desperate days for police and army in Helmand | :15:22. | :15:22. | |
Province. Some reports say 90 Afghan soldiers | :15:23. | :15:24. | |
have died in fighting One focus has been | :15:25. | :15:26. | |
the police HQ in Sangin. A local Police Commander | :15:27. | :15:29. | |
spoke to the BBC. TRANSLATION: | :15:30. | :15:41. | |
The situation is harsh. The district is closed and we have been | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
surrounded in the police headquarters for two days. No-one | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
can move out because the checkpoints along the roads have gone. The roads | :15:53. | :15:53. | |
between other districts are closed. We also | :15:54. | :16:02. | |
have another, a number of injured troops and bodies here. In the past | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
two days, fighting has been very heavy. That was the police | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
commander. Have a look at this. A Facebook post by the deputy Governor | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
of Helmand Province, writing a letter to the Afghan president. He | :16:17. | :16:19. | |
was the entire province could fault of the Taliban. Here is one quote... | :16:20. | :16:22. | |
-- he warns. Now, none of this would come as a | :16:23. | :16:43. | |
surprise to anyone in the Pentagon and Washington, DC. This is a quote | :16:44. | :16:55. | |
released last week... Whenever we're covering Afghanistan, | :16:56. | :16:57. | |
we turn to the BBC World Service for help. Our correspondent here is | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
talking about the symbolic importance of Helmand Province. | :17:03. | :17:10. | |
Helmand Province that the British troops were based that for many | :17:11. | :17:14. | |
years. They put in all the energy to secure this area and it is one of | :17:15. | :17:15. | |
the most important producers of the most important producers of | :17:16. | :17:23. | |
poppy in the world. So, the made a lot of games in this province in | :17:24. | :17:26. | |
recent months. Now we have warnings from the local officials saying that | :17:27. | :17:31. | |
the province might fall and it is a big give. | :17:32. | :17:34. | |
When you speak to national politicians, do they have the | :17:35. | :17:37. | |
appetite to come and help film and in the way that local officials | :17:38. | :17:45. | |
want? -- help calm. A spokesman today said the situation is not as | :17:46. | :17:50. | |
bad as local officials are saying and we have to send a special | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
forces. They are dealing with the situation. The deputy Governor of | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
Helmand Province on his Facebook that he believes that the news and | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
reports are not... The president does not get these reports directly. | :18:03. | :18:04. | |
So that is why he turned to Facebook So that is why he turned to Facebook | :18:05. | :18:09. | |
to address the president directly, that the provinces falling. Thank | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
you very much for that. Now let's look at some of the big business | :18:15. | :18:18. | |
stories around the world. Starting with one of the least surprising, it | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
is about Star Wars. The news as it is doing really well. This is how | :18:22. | :18:22. | |
well. It's broken the record | :18:23. | :18:25. | |
for the biggest box office debut weekend in North America with ticket | :18:26. | :18:27. | |
sales of $238m. It's also taken an | :18:28. | :18:36. | |
estimated $517m globally That takes Disney's 2015 box office | :18:37. | :18:49. | |
gross past $5 billion. Very nice business. Less top to a | :18:50. | :18:55. | |
correspondent in New York. We knew that it would do well but our | :18:56. | :18:58. | |
analysts still surprised how well Star Wars has done? | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
Let me give you another number to digests. If you look at it, it has | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
smashed through the previous global box office opening record. That was | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
$524 million. That was set by Universal Pictures' Jurassic world | :19:15. | :19:20. | |
earlier this year. Everyone knew that the rebate would be huge. But | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
at the same time, wouldn't a off, given that Disney paid a lot of | :19:24. | :19:31. | |
money to buy the rights? The people at the time were critical about how | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
much Disney has spent. For the CEO of Disney, it is a bit of a success. | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
That is one way of putting it in presumably this is just the start. | :19:43. | :19:45. | |
As well as taking in the cinema, you have to add in merchandising sold. | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
At the moment, you cannot walk down the street without seeing something | :19:51. | :19:54. | |
branded with Star Wars, whether it is the jammers... There is even an | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
ice cream from an artisan ice cream maker in Brooklyn, who is making one | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
that is the light and dark side. Very good. Specialised scheme | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
branded with Star Wars. -- special ice cream. People looking at this | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
business model saying, has gone too far, and we have to wait and see but | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
was a popular gift this Christmas will stop after you people watching | :20:22. | :20:24. | |
you will get something Star Wars related. Thank you. Let's talk about | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
oil prices. Being low's not a story anymore - | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
going this low is. Global oversupply is the cause | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
but producers aren't agreeing A year ago, the price | :20:37. | :20:50. | |
was $60 a barrel. It has come down to a spectacular | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
degree. Now to India - one of the most | :20:58. | :21:04. | |
famous yoga gurus is using his brand Shampoos, cereal, skin creams, | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
instant noodles, you name it. Exercise mixed with a little bit of | :21:11. | :21:29. | |
entertainment. It is not hard to see why this man has such mass appeal. | :21:30. | :21:40. | |
But the yoga guru has now turned his attention to something far more | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
commercial. A brand of products he founded has become one of India's | :21:47. | :21:52. | |
fastest-growing companies. TRANSLATION: | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
In this country, food products and medicines are mostly sold by foreign | :21:59. | :22:02. | |
multinational companies that take India's money abroad. We want the | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
country's money to stay here and that is why we started this. He is | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
not a stakeholder in the company and it is run by his aides and | :22:13. | :22:16. | |
followers. But he is its biggest ambassador. One of the reasons why | :22:17. | :22:23. | |

thanks to his yoga and many are convinced to buy something because | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
of the market is as bland. This is bestselling product. Here, you find | :22:43. | :22:49. | |
a wide range of things on display. For a person of a healthy lifestyle, | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
though, his latest product, instant noodles, has entered some criticism | :22:55. | :22:57. | |
and got him into a tangle with food safety of the these claim he did not | :22:58. | :23:02. | |
have a licence to make them. The company denies this but says the | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
issue has been sorted now. But it is not the only controversy surrounding | :23:08. | :23:11. | |
the firm, which has had more than 100 cases registered against it. | :23:12. | :23:14. | |
Land grabs and tax evasion and amongst the allegations. | :23:15. | :23:18. | |
TRANSLATION: Not even one court has given the nod | :23:19. | :23:26. | |

Miss Universe. Sunday night in Las Vegas, the host was this man, Steve | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
Harvey. He has probably had better evenings and already taken to | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
Twitter to say... If you have not seen this, it is | :24:18. | :24:24. | |
pretty awkward viewing. Columbia! | :24:25. | :24:38. | |
OK, folks, there is... I have to apologise. | :24:39. | :24:52. | |
Just in case you wondered what the criteria are, if you want to win | :24:53. | :25:27. | |

Then it gets quite stringent. It goes on... | :25:39. | :25:58. | |
That is Miss Universe for you. I will speak to you in a few minutes. | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
It is not just here in the UK where things are unusually warm for the | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
