:00:12. > :00:18.Hello, welcome to the programme. It is one hour of global news live from

:00:19. > :00:22.the BBC newsroom. We will hear from Canada, Philippines, China and

:00:23. > :00:30.Westminster. We will start was developing from Brazil. The vote to

:00:31. > :00:34.impeach President Rousseff has been annulled. We will explain what all

:00:35. > :00:38.this means. Finally, better news from Canada on the wildfires. The

:00:39. > :00:42.weather is hoping to slow the spread but there is still a wide area

:00:43. > :00:46.affected. We will bring you the latest. David Cameron says peace in

:00:47. > :00:50.Europe could be jeopardised if Britain votes to leave the EU.

:00:51. > :00:55.Needless to say, the League campaign disagrees. We will get the details

:00:56. > :01:00.on that. We will focus on China and its ambitions to become a

:01:01. > :01:07.footballing superpower in 2016. We will hear from our correspondent on

:01:08. > :01:10.that. And I will update you on the general election in the Philippines.

:01:11. > :01:22.It looks at the next president will be a man whose nickname is the

:01:23. > :01:30.Punisher. -- it looks like the next president

:01:31. > :01:34.will be a man whose nickname is. Let's begin with news that came into

:01:35. > :01:39.the BBC a few hours ago. Reuters carrying the story that President

:01:40. > :01:41.Rousseff in Brazil says the impeachment process has been

:01:42. > :01:49.suspended. You might remember the Brazilian Senate has said the vote

:01:50. > :01:54.on impeachment on Wednesday. It was widely seen as very likely that she

:01:55. > :01:57.would lose. Few abusers banded. But today, the acting Speaker of the

:01:58. > :02:04.Lords Brazil's Congress and all the impeachment and has called for a new

:02:05. > :02:10.vote in the chamber. Let's bring in our correspondent, who has been

:02:11. > :02:14.helping us explain the law -- all of this. Are we getting any closer to

:02:15. > :02:22.understanding what might play out in the next few days?

:02:23. > :02:27.In the last few seconds, the Senate has decided and it clear that it is

:02:28. > :02:32.going to go ahead and proceed with this vote against President

:02:33. > :02:36.Rousseff. They bought that will probably lead to heart Phil

:02:37. > :02:40.impeachment trial. That places the Senate at complete odds with the new

:02:41. > :02:47.Speaker of the Lords house of Congress. The lower house of

:02:48. > :02:58.Congress ruled today that the impeachment process should be

:02:59. > :03:04.annulled. We have a disagreement here. It underlines the confusion

:03:05. > :03:07.and Brazilian politics at the moment. When I spoke to the

:03:08. > :03:12.president last week in Brasilia, she fully expected to have to be

:03:13. > :03:15.suspended this week because she realised the Senate would be voting

:03:16. > :03:19.to begin an impeachment trial against her. On pretty small

:03:20. > :03:25.charges, that she somehow manipulative the budget to hide the

:03:26. > :03:28.state of the deficit. What we have got is a country in chaos,

:03:29. > :03:33.politically and economically. There is a sense that no-one is in charge

:03:34. > :03:38.in Brasilia and that is not tell Brazil and certainly as image

:03:39. > :03:45.overseas lytic Leander economically, with very poor market reaction out

:03:46. > :03:52.what is in Brazil yesterday. Who might have the power to decide

:03:53. > :03:57.which houses correct? In chronological terms, there was a

:03:58. > :04:01.very fiery, passionate and divisive debate in the law house of Congress

:04:02. > :04:04.one month ago in which the law house voted overwhelmingly to pass this

:04:05. > :04:09.impeachment process onto the Senate. It is in the Senate now. We are due

:04:10. > :04:13.a vote in the Senate this week which will probably begin in a Phil

:04:14. > :04:16.impeachment trial. That is a process. The law house has passed

:04:17. > :04:24.the old procedure on to the Senate. Now there is an interim chair in the

:04:25. > :04:27.lower house, who said there were serious irregularities in that vote

:04:28. > :04:31.in the house of Congress one month ago. He said the whole thing must

:04:32. > :04:37.have been once again. To be honest, no-one knows what will happen now. I

:04:38. > :04:42.imagine this will involve the Supreme Court of Brazil at some

:04:43. > :04:45.point in the next few days. The Supreme Court will probably be

:04:46. > :04:48.called in to make a decision. But again, the country is completely

:04:49. > :04:55.paralysed. There is a huge economic crisis. Brazil is in recession.

:04:56. > :04:59.Inflation rates well over 10%. Rising unemployment. A rising

:05:00. > :05:01.discontent on the streets of Brazil. And division between the

:05:02. > :05:05.pro-government and antigovernment camps. This does not help with all

:05:06. > :05:09.the chaos today. Thank you for explaining that.

:05:10. > :05:16.You know where we are in the next hour if the story changes again.

:05:17. > :05:19.This is complicated and important. If you watch this programme

:05:20. > :05:24.regularly, you will know that we can access everything coming through the

:05:25. > :05:32.BBC News, including use wires. Here is an important story from Iraq. The

:05:33. > :05:34.Pentagon says any strike by a US-led coalition has killed a senior

:05:35. > :05:38.Islamic state official in Iraq. Coming from the Pentagon. More

:05:39. > :05:45.details on this. It is thought to be a man who has appeared in propaganda

:05:46. > :05:51.videos for IS. What is significant here is that the group controls a

:05:52. > :05:53.province in Iraq although the Government has taken back some

:05:54. > :05:59.important towns. This would be a major blow against IS in the region,

:06:00. > :06:03.with Americans saying they killed a senior IS figure. We will update you

:06:04. > :06:08.on that as and when new information comes in. Most about the UK's

:06:09. > :06:15.referendum of well to stay in note of the year. It takes place on June

:06:16. > :06:18.23. Arguments from both sides cranked up further today. Here is

:06:19. > :06:26.David Cameron first of all why he thinks a vote to leave good in

:06:27. > :06:29.danger be singular. -- endanger peace in Europe. Isolationism has

:06:30. > :06:34.never served this country well. Whenever we turn our back on Europe,

:06:35. > :06:40.we come to a problem. We have always had to go back in and that a higher

:06:41. > :06:47.cost. The rows of white headstones and lovingly tended were -- war

:06:48. > :06:52.cemeteries stand is testament to the price this country has paid in

:06:53. > :06:58.restoring peace and order together. The EU has helped wreck inside

:06:59. > :07:02.countries that were once had each other's fraught for decades. --

:07:03. > :07:06.reconcile countries. We have a fundamental interest in maintaining,

:07:07. > :07:12.burgers in Europe to avoid future conflict between countries. That

:07:13. > :07:16.requires British leadership and for Britain to remain a member. That was

:07:17. > :07:22.one side of the argument. Use the other. Boris Johnson is the former

:07:23. > :07:25.Mayor of London but still one of the high-profile members in the League

:07:26. > :07:32.campaign. Unisys response to the Prime Minister. -- Leave campaign.

:07:33. > :07:35.If you're looking what we were promised and what we got, the

:07:36. > :07:41.Government should be campaigning on the Leave site today. We were told

:07:42. > :07:44.many times by the Prime Minister, Home Secretary, the Chancellor that

:07:45. > :07:49.we would get real changes to the law on free movement so that you needed

:07:50. > :07:54.to have a job lined up before you could come here. We have got no such

:07:55. > :07:58.change. We were told that we would get a working opt out from the

:07:59. > :08:02.Charter of fundamental human rights. Which, by the way, gives a European

:08:03. > :08:07.court the power to determine the application of the 1951 Convention

:08:08. > :08:13.on refugees and asylum, as well as child protection and victims'

:08:14. > :08:18.writes. Got nothing. That is Boris Johnson's view. You watching in the

:08:19. > :08:21.BBC News Channel in the UK will take a keen interest on this. Lots of you

:08:22. > :08:28.watch this programme the European Union. This is the reason why a lot

:08:29. > :08:38.of people in the UK are paying attention. You can see this Twitter

:08:39. > :08:43.account saying... Either quitting or commanding the right to have the

:08:44. > :08:50.kind of say in which we are seeing Britain is having on June 23. This

:08:51. > :08:53.goes far beyond the UK. The coverage of the story today has been

:08:54. > :08:56.dominated by this issue of security. We have pulled together some of the

:08:57. > :09:02.politicians and former politicians who have been weighing in.

:09:03. > :09:05.Instability is already in Europe. Look at what is happening on the

:09:06. > :09:12.continent. Some of those nationalist tendencies that led us to conflict

:09:13. > :09:16.in the past been recreated. The rise of extremist parties. Why? Because

:09:17. > :09:26.of the lack of control of migration across the continent. A shrunken

:09:27. > :09:31.Nato now depends, as Mr Obama has said, in a twin bill Nato, strong

:09:32. > :09:39.United States and united Europe. If we retain that, Nato is stronger.

:09:40. > :09:43.The European Union is stronger. And our enemies, or those who prowl

:09:44. > :09:48.round borders and take advantage of any opportunities, like flooding

:09:49. > :09:50.your bidding, will be weakened. When Europe is democratic and

:09:51. > :09:54.co-operating together, it will be peaceful. What is happening inside

:09:55. > :09:58.this European Union is without anyone's consent being given and

:09:59. > :10:04.they are creating a new state. The Prime Minister was right for us to

:10:05. > :10:11.think about the history as we come up to the anniversary of the battle

:10:12. > :10:14.the Somme, and contrast the stability in Europe with the

:10:15. > :10:18.instability and what in the Middle East. It is still over one month

:10:19. > :10:20.ago, but it had the feeling of things moving up and you ought to

:10:21. > :10:25.today. Here is our correspondent explaining

:10:26. > :10:28.why that might be. You can feel things are hotting up.

:10:29. > :10:31.We have talked about this for it seems like weeks. But local

:10:32. > :10:35.elections are out of the way. The gloves are off. This is the real

:10:36. > :10:38.thing and you can sort of feel the finishing line. To get your point,

:10:39. > :10:45.this idea of talking about the future, that still plays better for

:10:46. > :10:48.the remain campaign. David Cameron is not saying, look, there's got to

:10:49. > :10:53.be worn in a few weeks' time. The remain campaign, led by David

:10:54. > :10:57.Cameron says, and the freaky things, the economy, the voice that Britain

:10:58. > :11:01.has in the world on issues like security, you kind of know what you

:11:02. > :11:04.have got now that you're in the European Union. Who knows what might

:11:05. > :11:11.happen if we left? The balance of this problem on favourability, the

:11:12. > :11:15.advantage, if you like, lies with those who want to remain.

:11:16. > :11:19.I was surprised at this stage because David Cameron very

:11:20. > :11:23.successfully focused on the economy relentlessly in the general

:11:24. > :11:27.election. He said that they are more reliable than the Labour Party on

:11:28. > :11:30.this issue. Isn't the economy in the end likely to be his most successful

:11:31. > :11:35.card in persuading voters to come his way? Yes. I could leave it at

:11:36. > :11:40.that. It absolutely, yes. Going beyond the one word answer... All

:11:41. > :11:46.the focus groups and opinion polls suggest that to the extent that

:11:47. > :11:51.anybody since got through to voters who have been worried about the

:11:52. > :11:55.Premier League season, well to have a barbecue, the message that has got

:11:56. > :12:02.through is a sense amongst voters that we would be put and worse off

:12:03. > :12:06.if we left European Union. For the Brexit supporters, the message that

:12:07. > :12:10.resonates best with them is that if you want to get a grip with

:12:11. > :12:16.immigration and baubles, you need to vote to leave. If that is one of the

:12:17. > :12:19.main stories in the UK, this has become one of the other ones. It

:12:20. > :12:24.came in a couple of hours ago. That is the deal with the story in the

:12:25. > :12:27.Philippines. But I was going to mention the fact that the

:12:28. > :12:32.long-awaited report into the Iraq war in the UK is going to be

:12:33. > :12:35.published on Wednesday, July six. We understand security checks have been

:12:36. > :12:41.done and this report is very long. 2.6 million words. There will not be

:12:42. > :12:45.any reductions at all. The date has been agreed between the enquiry's

:12:46. > :12:50.head, St John Chilcot and David Cameron. We can be sure David

:12:51. > :12:56.Cameron is glad to have announced a date. -- Sir John Chilcot. It has

:12:57. > :13:00.taken a long time for this report to be published for public consumption.

:13:01. > :13:04.In a moment, we will be live in Canada. The wildfires very much

:13:05. > :13:09.continue, burning across a huge area. They have slowed down, which

:13:10. > :13:16.is good. We will get an update from CBC News in a few minutes.

:13:17. > :13:21.A man has been jailed today for the murder of the British teenager -- a

:13:22. > :13:25.British teenager 32 years ago. Christopher Hampton was caught

:13:26. > :13:26.after police matched DNA from the clothing of Melanie Road,

:13:27. > :13:29.who was 17 years old, to a member of Hampton's family

:13:30. > :13:39.on the national database. It is when we finally went to the

:13:40. > :13:50.Court in Bath and I saw this man standing. It is not a man, he is a

:13:51. > :13:55.monster. How could he do that? I realise that his wife and daughter

:13:56. > :14:04.were sitting behind me. Both blonde hair. The same is Melanie. How could

:14:05. > :14:12.he do that to somebody and then live with people like that, with them not

:14:13. > :14:24.knowing? I don't know. Do you? It hurts beyond repair.

:14:25. > :14:30.We are live as ever from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story comes from

:14:31. > :14:33.Brazil, where the impeachment process against the president has

:14:34. > :14:38.been thrown into doubt following a legal challenge. Let's look at the

:14:39. > :14:43.main stories from BBC World Service. First of all, Syria's military says

:14:44. > :14:48.it is extending a ceasefire in the city of Aleppo and its rural areas

:14:49. > :14:52.448 hours, from midnight on Tuesday. This game a couple of hours before

:14:53. > :14:58.the current local ceasefire was set to expire. BBC Arabic is covering

:14:59. > :15:03.that. Austria's reader has resigned. Here's been the Chancellor since

:15:04. > :15:05.2008. His party suffered a heavy defeat in the first round of

:15:06. > :15:11.presidential campaigns last month. Voters are concerned about high

:15:12. > :15:15.unemployment. That is on BBC World Service radio. Julian Assange has a

:15:16. > :15:19.new pet kitten. You can see it there. It was a gift from his

:15:20. > :15:23.children. Here's been living in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London from us

:15:24. > :15:25.for years and years avoiding a tradition to Sweden. The kit and

:15:26. > :15:33.perhaps inevitably now has its own Twitter feed. You can get more

:15:34. > :15:39.details on the BBC News app. I do have better news on the

:15:40. > :15:43.wildfires in Canada. As we have reported here, they have been

:15:44. > :15:47.burning primarily in the province of Alberta for over a week now. But

:15:48. > :15:51.some rain and favourable winds have seen and slow. Nonetheless, they

:15:52. > :15:57.continue to affect an area of over 1600 square kilometres. One place as

:15:58. > :16:02.perhaps been hit more than any other. Fort McMurray is a city where

:16:03. > :16:08.in the region of 20% of homes have been destroyed. If we bring up some

:16:09. > :16:11.of the stills at the come into the BBC newsroom, you get an idea of the

:16:12. > :16:15.scale of the destruction. This city is home to around 100,000 people and

:16:16. > :16:20.all of them left when the authorities ask them to evacuate.

:16:21. > :16:25.The pictures give you an idea of the scale of the destruction. So does

:16:26. > :16:29.this. This is a satellite image taken on me the third. This is a

:16:30. > :16:37.satellite image of exactly the same area. -- May third. You can see how

:16:38. > :16:43.much of the Earth has been scorched by the fires. Let's get a media

:16:44. > :16:49.update. Cameron Mackintosh is with CBC News near Fort McMurray. Thanks

:16:50. > :16:58.for joining us live on the BBC. Can you give us an idea of the scale of

:16:59. > :17:01.the emergency operation under like the skill of the file itself. It is

:17:02. > :17:06.huge. Take a look over my shoulder. You will see that there will be a

:17:07. > :17:08.helicopter coming into the frame. We are seeing dozens upon dozens of

:17:09. > :17:12.these helicopters doing this over and over again. We have been

:17:13. > :17:16.standing here for a few days now. These helicopters have been coming

:17:17. > :17:20.down, they take ). I know that it looks small but it is quite large.

:17:21. > :17:25.Relative to the size of the forest and the fire, it really doesn't seem

:17:26. > :17:30.like much. It takes so much energy to pick-up a little bit of water.

:17:31. > :17:35.Flight over then drop it on a Hot Spot and then they do it again. We

:17:36. > :17:39.have seen it time again. Meanwhile, we keep seeing big players coming up

:17:40. > :17:42.here and there. Just when they knock something down, something else comes

:17:43. > :17:47.back up. That is the type of effort going on now. Meanwhile, Aaron Fort

:17:48. > :17:51.McMurray, hundreds of firefighters are fighting this thing on foot. --

:17:52. > :18:04.around Fort McMurray. Going into trees with owes -- with hoses. This

:18:05. > :18:11.is a monumental effort to put back a fire that they have come to call,

:18:12. > :18:20.quite simply, the Beast. It is hard, gruelling work. The city of Fort

:18:21. > :18:23.make money itself seems to be out of danger. -- Fort McMurray. Is the

:18:24. > :18:31.weather still favourable for firefighters? Yes, and that has been

:18:32. > :18:35.a problem in last 24 hours. It is overcast and the sun has gone away.

:18:36. > :18:38.We don't have the heat we had a couple of days ago. Record high

:18:39. > :18:46.temperatures for this area, only plus parties. Now we're 10 degrees.

:18:47. > :18:53.-- plus 30s. The wind is blowing in the right direction and there is a

:18:54. > :18:58.lot of moisture in the air. It is more humid. That helps with the

:18:59. > :19:01.firefight. The one thing that we need here is rain. Although the

:19:02. > :19:05.clouds above me as somewhat overcast and a bit dark, there is no rule

:19:06. > :19:08.significantly in the forecast for the foreseeable future. We

:19:09. > :19:15.appreciate your help in covering the story. Thank you.

:19:16. > :19:23.You can find the Reporter online on his updates and social media. We'll

:19:24. > :19:28.talk about the latest trademark battle in China. We talked about

:19:29. > :19:35.Apple last week. Facebook this this time. There has been a ruling that

:19:36. > :19:40.her product maker there cannot name its company Facebook. Over to a

:19:41. > :19:45.reporter. One of these that, it is obvious that you could not call a

:19:46. > :19:48.drink Facebook. But it is a work in China? Are the rules different?

:19:49. > :19:54.Especially considering what happened with Apple. Apple was in a similar

:19:55. > :19:59.situation and it wanted to protect its brand, the iPhone. But it could

:20:00. > :20:05.not do that and lost. Now you can find wallets, iPhone wallets in

:20:06. > :20:09.China. A drink company wanted to do the same thing with Facebook and it

:20:10. > :20:15.called one of its soft drink Facebook. But in China, they said,

:20:16. > :20:19.no, it is not allowed. Part of that has to do with Facebook's charm

:20:20. > :20:23.offensive. CEO Mark Zuckerberg was recently in China and they are

:20:24. > :20:30.really trying to do a lot of outreach. Facebook is not viewable

:20:31. > :20:36.in China. Some people were wondering if perhaps that outreach was able to

:20:37. > :20:42.protect their name in China, unlike Apple, which did not have the same

:20:43. > :20:45.protection. Let me ask you about another story. When you bring up

:20:46. > :20:55.some social media. This at all times is saying... It is about the owner

:20:56. > :21:05.of a very well-known coffee chain. Tell us about the owners. The owners

:21:06. > :21:12.are a German company who own several coffee brands.

:21:13. > :21:17.Now they have Krispy Kreme. What usually interesting is the fact that

:21:18. > :21:22.if you look what the company is buying up, they are buying up things

:21:23. > :21:25.that are really starting to grow. Things in the fast-food industry,

:21:26. > :21:30.but not anything in the fast food industry. Is breakfast items. That

:21:31. > :21:33.is a real growth area. It makes very much sense that you have coffee and

:21:34. > :21:38.then you see them picking up the doughnut maker, Krispy Kreme.

:21:39. > :21:42.Although they will still run as independent stores right now. You

:21:43. > :21:45.knows what might happen down the line? Especially since we have seen

:21:46. > :21:51.that in terms of fast food, really the area of growth is in breakfast.

:21:52. > :21:54.Thank you. Good to have you on the programme. We will speak you very

:21:55. > :21:59.soon. I wonder what Facebook drink would

:22:00. > :22:05.taste like? Perhaps you could help me out. I wanted to show you this.

:22:06. > :22:10.The people look wild they did the Panama papers leak have put the

:22:11. > :22:14.whole lot online. This website has just been launched. A searchable

:22:15. > :22:20.database with more than 360,000 names of individuals and companies

:22:21. > :22:25.who used anonymous shell firms. The Panama papers leaks have already put

:22:26. > :22:30.a huge amount of focus on tax havens. In fact, they will be an

:22:31. > :22:35.event later on in London on Thursday. An anti-corruption Summit.

:22:36. > :22:40.Taxis will sell me come up. In advance of that, about 300 prominent

:22:41. > :22:44.economists published a letter calling for more tax transparency.

:22:45. > :22:48.We asked by corresponded to doctors about this. We wanted to understand

:22:49. > :22:52.if the argument is about models, the right thing to do, or what is best

:22:53. > :23:00.economically. It is kind of driven, to some

:23:01. > :23:06.extent, by the economics of it. The idea it is... There is no economic

:23:07. > :23:10.benefit in having tax havens. That they really only achieve great

:23:11. > :23:13.savings for individual rich people and multinational companies. But

:23:14. > :23:18.ultimately, it is a bad thing economically. Clearly, there is an

:23:19. > :23:22.underlying ethical message there as well. They make the point very

:23:23. > :23:27.strongly that it is particularly, in proportionate terms, the poor

:23:28. > :23:34.countries who suffer the most from lost taxis. A figure of 170 million

:23:35. > :23:40.billion dollars a year. They accept that countries across the world lose

:23:41. > :23:43.from the existence of tax havens but they are very much emphasising the

:23:44. > :23:47.point that poor countries suffer more.

:23:48. > :23:52.It is not hard to imagine why a country which is a tax even

:23:53. > :23:56.benefits. But why do the big and richest countries in the world want

:23:57. > :24:04.to maintain these tax havens? They would tell you that they don't, is

:24:05. > :24:09.the short answer. The sceptics, some of the campaigners at Oxfam, for

:24:10. > :24:13.example, who very much awarded this letter, some of them suspect that

:24:14. > :24:17.there might be onto political influence from donors on Wall Street

:24:18. > :24:24.and the City of London. Other major industries. That makes Government a

:24:25. > :24:28.bit more reluctant to get very aggressive with vaccines. But if you

:24:29. > :24:31.ask them their direct question, they would say they are very much in

:24:32. > :24:40.favour of transparency and want tax to be paid were genuine economic

:24:41. > :24:48.activity takes place. Next, the latest instalment in our CEO C2c 's.

:24:49. > :24:54.Here is the founder of Atari, with his advice. Including Sony gave to

:24:55. > :25:01.Steve jobs. -- including some that he gave.

:25:02. > :25:03.I said that of the marketing company creates mediocrity. If you're the

:25:04. > :25:06.only person that believes in something and you take a vote and

:25:07. > :25:58.everyone says no, do it anyway. That is online if you want to shave

:25:59. > :26:07.it, by the way. That is it for the Foster. -- if you want to share it.

:26:08. > :26:09.That is it for the first half. Thank you for
