:00:13. > :00:22.Outside Source Welcome to. We start in Westminster. The Prime Minister

:00:23. > :00:27.has been responding to a week of pleasure to see he is going to make

:00:28. > :00:36.it harder for people to salt away money overseas in offshore tax

:00:37. > :00:43.havens. Brazil is getting closer to impeaching its president.

:00:44. > :00:50.It was target of the first-ever nuclear attack -

:00:51. > :00:52.Inevitably, arrests have followed that terrible fire

:00:53. > :01:04.This happened in Kerala state and more than 100 people died.

:01:05. > :01:11.And if you have got questions and anything we are covering, please get

:01:12. > :01:26.in touch. All of your comments come straight to me.

:01:27. > :01:29.The week-long fall out from the Panama Papers has left

:01:30. > :01:31.David Cameron under severe pressure over the issue of tax,

:01:32. > :01:34.in part because of an offshore company set up by his late father

:01:35. > :01:37.and, in part, because of a ?200,000 payment from his mother.

:01:38. > :01:39.There is no suggestion any laws were broken,

:01:40. > :01:44.has published information from his tax returns.

:01:45. > :01:52.A few hours ago he made this statement in the House of Commons.

:01:53. > :01:59.The publication of tax information is unprecedented but I think it is

:02:00. > :02:05.the right thing to do. But I am not suggesting this should apply to all

:02:06. > :02:12.MPs. E Chancellor has today published information on his tax

:02:13. > :02:16.returns and the First Minister for Scotland has done likewise. This

:02:17. > :02:20.begs the question how far this information should go. I think there

:02:21. > :02:26.is a strong case for the Prime Minister, the Chancellor and the

:02:27. > :02:31.respective opponents on the Shadow Cabinet to do this in because they

:02:32. > :02:37.are responsible for the country's finances. We have robust rules for

:02:38. > :02:42.mentally MPs interests and that is the robust model we should continue.

:02:43. > :02:54.We should not abandon completely all tax being confidentiality as some

:02:55. > :02:59.have suggested. So the Prime Minister was advocating that

:03:00. > :03:02.himself, the Chancellor and the shadow equivalents should do the

:03:03. > :03:13.same and publish the tax information. This is the Labour

:03:14. > :03:22.leader. Does he realise why people are so angry? We have gone through

:03:23. > :03:30.six years of clashing austerity. Families lining up at food banks to

:03:31. > :03:35.feed the children. People losing their benefits. Elderly Kier cut and

:03:36. > :03:41.slashed. Living standards going down. Much of this could've been

:03:42. > :03:49.avoided if our country had not been ripped off by the super-rich

:03:50. > :04:00.refusing to pay taxes. The key strands to this followed from the

:04:01. > :04:06.Panama Papers. One is tax havens and the Prime Minister says he will make

:04:07. > :04:10.it harder for anyone to salt away funds in overseas territory.

:04:11. > :04:17.Remainder sells, in Panama Papers the, there were almost 2000 British

:04:18. > :04:23.companies working for this one company and reused the British

:04:24. > :04:33.Virgin Islands more than any other tax even. We can no speak to

:04:34. > :04:40.Eleanor. First of all, these efforts of the Prime Minister to stop the

:04:41. > :04:45.attention on himself. What measures have been announced? New plans were

:04:46. > :04:52.announced today. He said overseas British territories as a tax even,

:04:53. > :04:57.all but a couple of them are no green to share information with the

:04:58. > :05:03.United Kingdom police and other law enforcement agencies. He has got

:05:04. > :05:09.them to sheer a register of interests which will reveal who owns

:05:10. > :05:15.and runs these companies in the overseas territories. This is part

:05:16. > :05:19.of the Prime Minister 's effort to increase transparency not only in

:05:20. > :05:23.the United Kingdom but in these tax havens as well. There was a further

:05:24. > :05:29.confirmation of other rules which will be introduced in the United

:05:30. > :05:36.Kingdom. David Cameron confirmed that they will bring in a new law

:05:37. > :05:47.which will penalised those who do not stop tax evasion. There was also

:05:48. > :05:52.confirmation of new laws for the overseas territories but one year.

:05:53. > :05:57.We have this talk of tax transparency, that despite the fact

:05:58. > :06:03.that he had not done anything wrong and neither had any other

:06:04. > :06:07.politicians. Yes, we have done last week having to cope with very

:06:08. > :06:14.difficult headlines. He has been forced to raid out these headlines

:06:15. > :06:19.over Easter and then he published his own tax fears. That has been

:06:20. > :06:26.followed by other politicians following suit. What the Prime

:06:27. > :06:33.Minister said Judy was that while he has published his information and

:06:34. > :06:37.the Chancellor has done likewise, the Leader of the Opposition and

:06:38. > :06:40.also the Shadow Chancellor, what the Prime Minister said was that he

:06:41. > :06:45.thought that would be enough. He did not think every single member of

:06:46. > :06:49.Parliament needed to publish their own tax fears and in fact, one MP

:06:50. > :07:03.said was that if they were asked to do that, they would resign. So far,

:07:04. > :07:06.we have had the most senior politicians publishing the tax

:07:07. > :07:13.information, but I think questions will remain. I do not think this is

:07:14. > :07:20.the end of the matter entirely. Thank you for joining us. Lucy

:07:21. > :07:28.Manning has been looking at these tax transparency in how the United

:07:29. > :07:38.Kingdom and we will be that report in about 20 minutes time. First, we

:07:39. > :07:47.can now go to Brazil. Here is a tweet from one correspondence. It is

:07:48. > :07:54.particularly important because a special committee has been asked to

:07:55. > :07:58.investigate her and whether she should be impeached. If the vote

:07:59. > :08:06.yes, the politicians will have a similar thought and if the agree,

:08:07. > :08:17.the president will be suspended. Letters be clear, the president

:08:18. > :08:22.denies any wrongdoing. The beleaguered Brazilian president is

:08:23. > :08:32.facing an economic and political storm. A lot of the population

:08:33. > :08:34.blames her directly. It tizzy multi-million dollar corruption

:08:35. > :08:39.scandal focusing on the state-controlled oil company. She

:08:40. > :08:46.used to be a chairman of the company. Although she has not been

:08:47. > :08:50.directly implicated, it has weakened her authority and that of the

:08:51. > :08:58.government. That is why many people here think she should resign or be

:08:59. > :09:02.impeached. This is a critical week for the president. Opponents try to

:09:03. > :09:08.drum up the necessary two thirds majority to begin this process. It

:09:09. > :09:14.is important to note that this has nothing to do with the corruption

:09:15. > :09:24.scandal. It is focused on allegations that government accounts

:09:25. > :09:29.were manipulated to hate the growing deficit. Supporters say this is

:09:30. > :09:35.nothing more than an attempted coup against the democratically elected

:09:36. > :09:38.government. In the last decade, Brazil was the darling of the

:09:39. > :09:45.developed world. The economy was booming. The country was hosting

:09:46. > :09:52.both the World Cup and the Olympic Games. But rising inflation and

:09:53. > :09:57.recession have undermined many of these schemes. It has also exposed

:09:58. > :10:01.many of the old divisions which never really went away, between the

:10:02. > :10:09.north and south, the rich and the pool. This is a deeply divided

:10:10. > :10:12.country with regular anti-and pro-government demonstrations of the

:10:13. > :10:26.major streets of the capital 's and other top cities. We can bring in

:10:27. > :10:32.Daniel. Tell us more about this committee. Who is older than her

:10:33. > :10:37.much power does it have? The committee is procedural more than

:10:38. > :10:46.anything. They want the president to be impeached, but how MPs will vote

:10:47. > :10:51.on Friday and Saturday and Sunday, that may not actually be reflected

:10:52. > :11:00.by this report. What we are hearing right now is that accusations being

:11:01. > :11:04.made about the president, so we are seeing the opposition MPs seeing it

:11:05. > :11:16.is not just about the problems she is accused of, but her government

:11:17. > :11:20.says this is actually an attempted coup. But what happens today is not

:11:21. > :11:29.as important as what will happen at the end of the week. The story is

:11:30. > :11:33.overshadowing the fact that the Brazilian government, is it still

:11:34. > :11:37.functioning? That is a very good question. It is a key point. Right

:11:38. > :11:45.now, the government has not really been functioning and been able to

:11:46. > :11:52.put anything through Congress. The question will be, what happens after

:11:53. > :11:57.Brady Saturday and Sunday. If the president wins that the vote and

:11:58. > :12:03.stays in power, will she be able to function in government for the rest

:12:04. > :12:11.of this mandate will she faced new impeachment charges? If she does

:12:12. > :12:15.lose, whoever is Brazilian president in a month from now, we'll we have

:12:16. > :12:19.enough power and authority? At the moment, it does not seen any sort of

:12:20. > :12:28.agreement could be reached. Thank you for joining us. Next, we're

:12:29. > :12:31.going to turn to Japan. It was target of the

:12:32. > :12:39.first-ever nuclear attack and the Secretary of State

:12:40. > :12:42.is the most senior US He is in Japan for a G7 meeting

:12:43. > :12:46.of foreign ministers. The G7 is a group of seven

:12:47. > :12:49.of the richest and most powerful countries in the world -

:12:50. > :12:53.America and Japan being two. Rupert Wingfield Hayes has been

:12:54. > :12:58.covering the summit. It has taken nearly 71 years, but,

:12:59. > :13:01.finally, a serving US Secretary With his Japanese and G7

:13:02. > :13:08.colleagues beside him, Mr Kerry laid a wreath

:13:09. > :13:12.to the 140,000 people who were killed here

:13:13. > :13:15.when an American aircraft dropped an atomic bomb right

:13:16. > :13:21.above this spot. There is no doubt this is a moment

:13:22. > :13:24.loaded with symbolism and it will be even more so if President Obama

:13:25. > :13:27.decides to come here and do But in a world where nuclear

:13:28. > :13:31.disarmament appears further away than ever, is this any more

:13:32. > :13:37.than mere political theatre? Mr Kerry certainly appears to have

:13:38. > :13:41.been moved by what he saw. It tugs at all of your

:13:42. > :13:52.sensibilities as a human being. This was a display that

:13:53. > :13:56.I will personally never forget. I don't see how anyone

:13:57. > :14:00.could forget the images, the evidence and the recreations of

:14:01. > :14:14.what happened on August 6th, 1945. Keiko Ogura witnessed the atomic

:14:15. > :14:17.bombing as an eight-year-old child. She welcomes Mr Kerry's visit here,

:14:18. > :14:26.but says fine words are not enough. "From now we will

:14:27. > :14:27.endeavour", he says. Why can't they say, right now,

:14:28. > :14:54.we abolish nuclear? She no wants the president to push

:14:55. > :15:05.for nuclear disarmament. Nothing has happened. This is the last chance to

:15:06. > :15:14.show the world, yes, I did achieve something and I am going to do this

:15:15. > :15:16.for the world of peace. It is perhaps a vain hope.

:15:17. > :15:19.71 years after this city was destroyed in the first nuclear

:15:20. > :15:21.attack, the world still has 15,000 nuclear warheads.

:15:22. > :15:23.More than 90% are owned by just two countries -

:15:24. > :15:47.If you want more information on the day he wash was attacked, you can

:15:48. > :15:53.find it true and what website. In a female men's time, we will play you

:15:54. > :16:04.a report on how this man has marked his hundredth birthday by doing

:16:05. > :16:07.this. More on that in a minute. A British woman who stamped her

:16:08. > :16:17.toddler daughter to death has been jailed for life.

:16:18. > :16:19.Ayeeshia Jane - her life was brutally snuffed out,

:16:20. > :16:22.the judge said, in a vicious beating in her bedroom.

:16:23. > :16:24.Her mother, Kathryn Smith, arrived at court today to be

:16:25. > :16:28.Seen here last week, she was described as a devious

:16:29. > :16:35.During sentencing, Mrs Justice Andrews described how

:16:36. > :16:37.violence was inflicted upon her repeatedly under the noses

:16:38. > :16:40.of all the various agencies that were supposed to be protecting her.

:16:41. > :16:45.Midwives, health visitors and social workers had all been monitoring

:16:46. > :16:57.Kathryn Smith has shown no remorse, but the 23-year-old wept

:16:58. > :17:17.when she was told she will spend at least 24 years in prison.

:17:18. > :17:21.This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.

:17:22. > :17:24.The British Prime Minister has set out his plans crack

:17:25. > :17:28.He's been under pressure since the leaked panama Papers

:17:29. > :17:30.showed he had owned shares in an offshore investment fund.

:17:31. > :17:34.A ceasefire in Yemen has begun - BBC Arabic is reporting that it

:17:35. > :17:36.appears to be holding in the capital, Sanaa,

:17:37. > :17:39.but there are reports of fighting Taiz, a city in the south west.

:17:40. > :17:41.A Moroccan man has gone on trial in Germany

:17:42. > :17:45.This is big news because it's the first trial which is related

:17:46. > :17:47.to the hundreds of sex crimes what were reported

:17:48. > :17:53.This trial is in Dusseldorf - most of the alleged

:17:54. > :17:58.He was jailed in the US in 1990 for smuggling cannabis -

:17:59. > :18:13.on his release he wrote a best selling autobiography all about it.

:18:14. > :18:15.Inevitably, arrests have followed that terrible fire

:18:16. > :18:19.This happened in Kerala state and more than 100 people died.

:18:20. > :18:29.All work at the temple, which is in a town called Paravur,

:18:30. > :18:32.and all are being questioned about an unauthorised

:18:33. > :18:38.These are some of the pictures we have.

:18:39. > :18:42.There was a huge explosion during the display and then this.

:18:43. > :18:46.A faulty rocket had fallen onto a large stockpile of fireworks.

:18:47. > :18:51.As well as those who died, nearly 400 others were injured.

:18:52. > :19:10.Yogita Limigh has been to the scene. This is what she recorded.

:19:11. > :19:18.This ground where I am standing is where thousands of people had

:19:19. > :19:22.gathered to watch the fireworks display on Friday night. Here is a

:19:23. > :19:29.concrete structure where the fireworks were stored. It is where a

:19:30. > :19:32.strain firework landed and that triggered the explosion. The

:19:33. > :19:38.concrete structure collapse. People in hospital are not just those with

:19:39. > :19:43.burn injuries, but those with broken bones. A man I met at the hospital

:19:44. > :19:46.yesterday said he thought the casualty rate was high because of

:19:47. > :19:53.this collapse. Local authorities said they had not allowed this

:19:54. > :19:58.fireworks display to go ahead. And enquiry has been ordered into how

:19:59. > :20:07.this fireworks display went ahead without permission.

:20:08. > :20:20.Now, a media story. The Daily Mail has been in talks about mounting a

:20:21. > :20:54.bid for Yahoo! Yahoo has struggled to compete with

:20:55. > :21:00.the likes of Google and Facebook. The current CEO joined from Google

:21:01. > :21:04.four years ago. But revenues have stayed stubbornly flat under her

:21:05. > :21:14.tenure and now shareholders want the company to have a new lease of life.

:21:15. > :21:18.There are a lot of obstacles between now and the deal happening, but here

:21:19. > :21:24.is a web technology correspondent looking at how the deal could work.

:21:25. > :21:32.It has a lot. It has 1 billion people using its services every

:21:33. > :21:43.month. $1 billion in advertising revenue comes in.

:21:44. > :21:49.It is still a popular e-mail service. It has a lot of people

:21:50. > :21:57.doing quite a lot of things. There is the Daily Mail's story. It has

:21:58. > :22:04.launched a successful news online service. It has a big audience in

:22:05. > :22:08.America. Still quite small digital advertising revenues. It is looking

:22:09. > :22:17.at Yahoo! And thinking, it may not be very clever, but it is big, and

:22:18. > :22:22.we are pretty clever. Maybe we can take it on board, grow exponentially

:22:23. > :22:26.and make serious money. What all old-fashioned news businesses are

:22:27. > :22:30.doing is struggling with the move from print to digital. The Daily

:22:31. > :22:34.Mail is doing it better than most, but needs to accelerate its digital

:22:35. > :22:41.transformation and hopes that wine Yahoo! Will do that.

:22:42. > :22:48.What we often do on the programme is to play you CEO programmes. Here is

:22:49. > :22:52.our latest. One of the great things if you run a

:22:53. > :22:57.business is to do with a great team. You are looking for diversity. You

:22:58. > :23:05.want the skill set that covers the whole spectrum of the things you

:23:06. > :23:08.need to face. You want product designers, salespeople, marketing

:23:09. > :23:17.people. If you have that, you can go at 100 miles an hour. Warning, teens

:23:18. > :23:26.and growth. We started we had a great team. If you expand your

:23:27. > :23:30.business and have more teams, it is difficult to get things right to

:23:31. > :23:35.make sure that all your teams are working at the same level so they

:23:36. > :23:42.can make the right decisions and grow faster.

:23:43. > :23:47.Now reports about a man from the south-west of England marking his

:23:48. > :23:54.100th birthday with a skydive. He definitely is a braver man than me.

:23:55. > :23:57.100 years old but he is not one for sitting still.

:23:58. > :23:59.For his birthday, he wanted to skydive.

:24:00. > :24:05.Doing one thing and the other which other people do not do!

:24:06. > :24:08.Born during the First World War and named after the Battle

:24:09. > :24:11.of the Verdun, he fought the Nazis but that was on the ground,

:24:12. > :24:18.Now a centenarian, he is at 10,000 feet and ready to go.

:24:19. > :24:21.I said to them I want to be first out.

:24:22. > :24:53.It is thought he is the UK's oldest ever skydiver and in doing

:24:54. > :24:56.it he has raised money for a local hospice.

:24:57. > :25:28.By then he will be the oldest skydiver in the world.

:25:29. > :25:37.Very impressive, and if you want to see any of our reports, you can see

:25:38. > :25:42.them on the BBC News app or on our website. That is it for the first

:25:43. > :25:50.half of Outside Source. Iwobi back in a few minutes. If you want to get

:25:51. > :25:53.in touch about any of the stories we are covering, you can tweet us.
