Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:15.:00:18.

We live inside the European Council. It has been another extraordinary

:00:19.:00:25.

day. The first time, all leaders across the European Union are in one

:00:26.:00:29.

place discussing the UK's decision to leave the European Union. David

:00:30.:00:33.

Cameron arrived a few hours ago, and is currently meeting his 27

:00:34.:00:38.

counterparts. Those discussions will follow on from some test the

:00:39.:00:42.

exchanges in the European Parliament. And as a political

:00:43.:00:48.

project are in denial. You are in denial that your currency is

:00:49.:00:55.

failing. Those who pushed back very hard at Nigel Farage have been

:00:56.:00:59.

speaking to the BBC. I would tell you about one member of the European

:01:00.:01:05.

Parliament who says that this organisation needs to become a

:01:06.:01:09.

federal organisation if it is to succeed. We will also bring you

:01:10.:01:12.

up-to-date with what has happening in Turkey. Two explosions at the

:01:13.:01:20.

main airport in Istanbul. It is reported that ten people have lost

:01:21.:01:23.

their lives. We will bring you more on that shortly. And the many

:01:24.:01:28.

elements of this story of Britain's exit from the European Union is

:01:29.:01:35.

expanding. It is as complicated as it is important. You will have many

:01:36.:01:41.

questions about what is going on. You can send us messages. We will

:01:42.:01:44.

have journalists ready to answer any questions you have.

:01:45.:02:02.

We will come to the many elements of the UK and European union stories,

:02:03.:02:09.

but first let's turn to Turkey. We understand that there had been two

:02:10.:02:12.

explosions at the main airport in Istanbul. Let's bring you up-to-date

:02:13.:02:16.

with some above photos that have been coming in to the newsroom. The

:02:17.:02:21.

justice minister is saying that ten people have been killed, and as you

:02:22.:02:25.

can see, a huge amount of emergency services had been rushed to the

:02:26.:02:33.

scene. What can you tell us? There are several reports coming in that

:02:34.:02:39.

there were two explosions, right at the entrance of the airport after

:02:40.:02:45.

some gunshots. In the confusion, with this account, discussion

:02:46.:02:49.

centres about whether they were inside or outside. The confusion

:02:50.:02:54.

comes from Turkish airports having to security checks. One on the

:02:55.:02:59.

outside and one on the inside. It is relayed by the witnesses that police

:03:00.:03:05.

officers discovered something suspicious with two people started

:03:06.:03:09.

firing shots, and then these two bombers detonated whatever they were

:03:10.:03:16.

carrying. These are the main accounts by the media at the moment.

:03:17.:03:20.

What are the main security threats in Turkey at the moment? Turkey is

:03:21.:03:24.

facing multiple security threats like never before. There has been

:03:25.:03:35.

problems with Syria and in the past, there have been attacks carried out

:03:36.:03:41.

by Islamic State. However, we have also seen a reignition of the

:03:42.:03:50.

Kurdish conflict. One of the groups that suicide bombers in major

:03:51.:03:59.

cities, and this appears to be the continuation of a very horrific year

:04:00.:04:03.

for Turkey. I know you are going to carry on working on that here in

:04:04.:04:08.

Brussels. We also have colleagues in London working to get more

:04:09.:04:11.

information. As we get it, we will bring it to you on the BBC. In the

:04:12.:04:18.

meantime, everything is in play, whether you are talking about UK

:04:19.:04:21.

politics or European politics. In the UK, we had the Chancellor saying

:04:22.:04:28.

that taxes will go up and public spending will go down. We have the

:04:29.:04:32.

opposition Labour Party in a state of disarray after a vote of

:04:33.:04:35.

no-confidence in its leader, and as I am talking to you, there is also a

:04:36.:04:41.

sizeable anti-Brexit protest going on in Westminster. We will report

:04:42.:04:44.

from there as well. Here in Brussels, for first time, the 28

:04:45.:04:52.

countries that make up this union are talking about how the process of

:04:53.:04:56.

the UK exiting is going to work. As you can see on the map, I am here in

:04:57.:05:02.

the centre of the city. I am on the floor of the European Council which

:05:03.:05:06.

is on one side of the building. On the other side, it is the European

:05:07.:05:12.

Parliament. You can see behind me here, it is a busy throng. No one is

:05:13.:05:16.

going anywhere. We are expecting to hear from some of these leaders

:05:17.:05:20.

after they emerge from their dinner. Hundreds and hundreds of journalists

:05:21.:05:26.

wanted to cover what is being said. At the centre of all of these

:05:27.:05:30.

discussions is Prime Minister David Cameron, the man but could this

:05:31.:05:33.

referendum, the man who will be leaving office by September at the

:05:34.:05:42.

latest. Here's what he said earlier. I will be expanding that Britain

:05:43.:05:45.

will be leaving the European Union, and I want a process to be as

:05:46.:05:50.

constructive as possible and I hope the outcome will be as constructive

:05:51.:05:55.

as possible. While we are leaving the European Union, we cannot turn

:05:56.:05:59.

our backs on Europe. These are our neighbours, our allies, our

:06:00.:06:03.

partners, and I very much hope that we can see the closest possible

:06:04.:06:06.

relationship in terms of trade and cooperation and Security, which is

:06:07.:06:10.

good for us and good for them. That is the spirit in which the

:06:11.:06:13.

discussions I think will be held today. To think the public deserves

:06:14.:06:18.

more? Let me show you this tweet. Here the

:06:19.:06:33.

attitude is no official notification, no negotiation. That

:06:34.:06:39.

needs to be triggered for a country to leave the EU, but only a member

:06:40.:06:46.

country can do it. So however much Europe wants Britain to get on with

:06:47.:06:51.

it, they can't make them. You are an expert at letting behind the smiles

:06:52.:06:56.

and trying to read what is going on. It has been quite a stern message

:06:57.:07:01.

amongst the pleasantries. On the one hand, there is the personal level.

:07:02.:07:05.

David Cameron is having dinner with the other 27 leaders, and they are

:07:06.:07:08.

not going to put him in a corner like a naughty school child. We have

:07:09.:07:15.

seen the family photo, and for now, Britain remains a member of the

:07:16.:07:18.

European Union. But the leaders here are disappointed, they are

:07:19.:07:22.

frustrated, and they are also worried. It goes past the Brexit

:07:23.:07:25.

vote itself to the future of the European Union. If you look across

:07:26.:07:30.

the EU, never has the public more Eurosceptic in in sentiment. When

:07:31.:07:34.

the leaders look ahead to when Britain does finally trigger article

:07:35.:07:38.

50, that official notification that wants to start negotiations, they

:07:39.:07:43.

will be thinking twofold. How do we move on and get a deal that is as

:07:44.:07:50.

beneficial for them, but not Bakic to attractive that other people will

:07:51.:07:54.

want to leave, to? I interviewed Tim Farren, who is he in Brussels.

:07:55.:07:58.

Whenever he next one is a general election campaign, he will be

:07:59.:08:02.

running a campaign to get Britain back into the EU. Do you think the

:08:03.:08:07.

senior figures here have any hope of reversing this decision? They are

:08:08.:08:10.

being very careful. They were careful in the lead up to the

:08:11.:08:14.

referendum, they said this is a British affair. Now they are saying

:08:15.:08:17.

that as well. If you listen very carefully to Angela Merkel, the

:08:18.:08:25.

Chancellor of Germany, she says that if Britain decides to leave, what

:08:26.:08:29.

happens now in the UK, they think that is up to the UK. A source very

:08:30.:08:33.

closer that might close to her sake that they like to concentrate on

:08:34.:08:38.

facts. The fact is that British have voted to go out. But there is a? As

:08:39.:08:43.

to where they get to the next step. -- a question mark. I want to talk

:08:44.:08:50.

about what happened in the European Parliament.

:08:51.:08:53.

Sometimes the European Union can be an alternative to watching paint

:08:54.:09:02.

dry. But look at this. I know that virtually none of you have ever done

:09:03.:09:09.

a proper dropping your lives. -- proper job in your lives. What works

:09:10.:09:19.

in business, or worked in trade, what ever created a job. I am really

:09:20.:09:25.

surprised that you are here! You were fighting for the exit. The

:09:26.:09:29.

British people voted in favour of the excellent. My colleagues, there

:09:30.:09:34.

are a lot of things to be negotiated. We will need cool heads

:09:35.:09:39.

and warm heart. But please, remember this. Scotland did not let you down.

:09:40.:09:48.

Please, I beg you. Do not let Scotland down now. There is a

:09:49.:09:57.

climate of fear that has been created. That is the most sucking

:09:58.:10:02.

thing of what has happened, not the choice of the people. The choice of

:10:03.:10:09.

the people is democracy. MEPs like Diane Dodds and Marine Le Pen would

:10:10.:10:13.

say that we in the north of Ireland are bound by a UK vote. We say, we

:10:14.:10:22.

are not. And like the previous MEP, Mr Smith, we ask you to respect our

:10:23.:10:29.

boat. We stand by the vote of the people of the North of Ireland, just

:10:30.:10:36.

like Scotland, which voted remain. TRANSLATION: this is a victory for

:10:37.:10:42.

democracy. It is a slap in the face of a European system that is

:10:43.:10:47.

increasingly dealt on fear and blackmail. Now we have seen examples

:10:48.:10:52.

in this chamber, threat of Apocalypse, the start exchange, and

:10:53.:10:56.

the British saw through that and they decided in their sovereignty,

:10:57.:11:00.

leaving you to your bitterness and a pig that indignation. Katia is still

:11:01.:11:07.

here. And I am also joined by Alex Wharf -- as Alex Forsyth. He cannot

:11:08.:11:15.

underestimate the shock across Europe, not just in the UK at the

:11:16.:11:21.

referendum result. A lot of the European parliamentarians, they flew

:11:22.:11:27.

the prey -- they feel betrayed. They seek Nigel Farage as the member who

:11:28.:11:34.

led to this. He is not someone who is known for his politeness in the

:11:35.:11:38.

European Parliament. But what we saw today is something that is not

:11:39.:11:42.

approved of here by the leaders, and you sort emotional outpouring, and

:11:43.:11:49.

whereas the hearts seemed to lead in the parliament, the head is leading

:11:50.:11:55.

amongst the EU leaders. We will talk about how passionate things are

:11:56.:11:59.

getting in Westminster. It is probably not too strong to say that

:12:00.:12:03.

it is in disarray at the moment. The people who have not seen this story.

:12:04.:12:08.

Disarray is an understatement for Westminster at the moment. There has

:12:09.:12:13.

been pressure piling on Jeremy Corbyn. A lot of his own MPs think

:12:14.:12:22.

he ran a lacklustre campaign. They are blaming him for the result in

:12:23.:12:27.

the UK. We have seen a whole slew of his own senior MPs, who sit

:12:28.:12:32.

alongside him, so they do not have any confidence in you. This all came

:12:33.:12:35.

to ahead with about, and the vast majority of them saying they not

:12:36.:12:39.

have confidence in him, but so far, he is not going anywhere. We have

:12:40.:12:45.

significant political turmoil in Westminster. Many of the leaders

:12:46.:12:50.

here are fervently hoping that other European countries don't follow suit

:12:51.:12:54.

and had their own referendum on EU membership. They are looking at the

:12:55.:12:59.

UK and they are hoping it will send a message to Eurosceptic voters in

:13:00.:13:02.

the rest of the European Union to say that you may not change -- you

:13:03.:13:06.

may want change, and we hear you. They are saying EU reform a lot in

:13:07.:13:12.

the last couple of weeks. But don't go that way, that way, turmoil lies.

:13:13.:13:17.

EU leaders don't like uncertainty, but this does not look like is going

:13:18.:13:25.

to be resolved time soon. David Cameron is resigning, so there is a

:13:26.:13:28.

Tory leadership battle battling Toure brewing at the same time.

:13:29.:13:32.

There is no effective opposition, so we have a political vacuum at a time

:13:33.:13:36.

of great uncertainty, at a time when the markets are in turmoil because

:13:37.:13:40.

of this unexpected result in the EU referendum, and people are looking

:13:41.:13:45.

at the next three months wondering how things will play out. The finer

:13:46.:13:48.

details mean that we could get some results through fairly soon, but the

:13:49.:13:52.

bigger question is whoever leads the two main parties, would they be able

:13:53.:13:56.

to unite a country that is effectively being very divided by

:13:57.:14:01.

this result? One last thought. People here are clearly keen to get

:14:02.:14:04.

on with it. They are upset that Britain has voted out but they want

:14:05.:14:09.

this done. Are they regretting that article 50 does not let it trigger

:14:10.:14:12.

them themselves? People voted for it, and yet we have to wait for the

:14:13.:14:16.

official request to stop the process. The mood music here is that

:14:17.:14:20.

the UK has voted out, and the EU wants to get on with it. But through

:14:21.:14:28.

gritted teeth, the leaders are accepting that the official

:14:29.:14:31.

negotiations must be triggered by the UK. But they are saying, don't

:14:32.:14:36.

think that while we won't be waiting, there will be informal

:14:37.:14:44.

talks about where the EU lies. Official talks will only start when

:14:45.:14:49.

Article 50 is triggered. And put him from Anglo Merkel, -- in prison from

:14:50.:14:53.

Angela When the negotiations start, Britain

:14:54.:15:01.

will not be able to cherry pick its way towards a deal. So the message

:15:02.:15:05.

that they want to send here, we are not going to be unfair, we are not

:15:06.:15:09.

looking for revenge on the UK, but they do not want a deal that is so

:15:10.:15:13.

generous and easy that other countries will follow suit. The EU

:15:14.:15:20.

is not an a la carte menu. Thank you very much. We will continue to cover

:15:21.:15:26.

the many elements of this story. But we must now move to what is

:15:27.:15:30.

happening in Turkey. In the last hour, we have had

:15:31.:15:37.

details of several explosions at the main airport in Istanbul. Mrs

:15:38.:15:42.

Ataturk International Airport. Gunshots have also been heard. --

:15:43.:15:46.

this is Ataturk International Airport. As you can see, many police

:15:47.:15:54.

and ambulances are on the scene. It was carried out by suicide bombers,

:15:55.:15:58.

and there have been attacks in Turkey since talks between

:15:59.:16:04.

government and Kurdish militants broke down. Some flights have

:16:05.:16:08.

perverted, and our correspondent in Istanbul says that he has just

:16:09.:16:15.

landed to awful news. All of the passengers are being kept on the

:16:16.:16:19.

plane now, it is unclear what is happening inside the terminal. We

:16:20.:16:24.

will clearly keep you abreast of what is going on in that story. A

:16:25.:16:28.

series of attacks at the main airport in Istanbul, with suicide

:16:29.:16:34.

bombers carrying it Toure out the attacks. Let's turn to Westminster.

:16:35.:16:41.

Another element of this story is that right now, there is a protest

:16:42.:16:45.

at Westminster thanks to people who are very upset that the British have

:16:46.:16:53.

voted to leave the EU. Chris, my goodness, this story changes by the

:16:54.:17:03.

minute. Where are you now. But on College Green. There a couple of

:17:04.:17:07.

hundred protesters here, they have been here for the last couple of

:17:08.:17:11.

hours. The chance that I have heard, I have never heard in the UK before.

:17:12.:17:20.

People chancing EU, EU, EU. I have never heard that in the UK, which

:17:21.:17:26.

has probably been sceptical to the European project. These people are

:17:27.:17:33.

young, they are based in London. London voted to stay in the EU, and

:17:34.:17:38.

the analysis of people voting is that older people were more likely

:17:39.:17:44.

not to vote for the EU. One person said that the past voted for the

:17:45.:17:50.

future, a pointed dig at older people. We have just had a

:17:51.:17:58.

Conservative government minister addressing the crowd, she had

:17:59.:18:04.

campaigned for all the main vote, and was getting cheers from the

:18:05.:18:09.

crowd here. It is an extraordinary thing to witness in British

:18:10.:18:14.

politics. Any developments in the Labour Party? As things stands, no

:18:15.:18:25.

more resignations. They are in deep conversation with each other

:18:26.:18:29.

deciding what to do. Most MPs want to replace Jeremy Corbyn. They think

:18:30.:18:33.

he would lose the general election, and there is an expectation now that

:18:34.:18:36.

there could be in a new -- early general election here in the UK,

:18:37.:18:42.

because of the referendum result. There will be a new general election

:18:43.:18:46.

in a couple of months' time. They would be tempted to get their own

:18:47.:18:50.

mandate from the British people. That has spooked Labour MPs that

:18:51.:18:57.

they would be wiped out. But now that that no further development to

:18:58.:19:01.

not about who might run against him to topple him. I was interviewing

:19:02.:19:10.

Tim Farrant earlier. I asked, would you support a new general election?

:19:11.:19:14.

And he said, maybe, that is a wise decision. It -- Tim Farrant.

:19:15.:19:24.

Let's not forget that the over 65s voted in far greater numbers than

:19:25.:19:33.

the 18-24 -year-olds. There is a passionate discussion about whether

:19:34.:19:37.

perhaps younger people need to work hard at getting the vote out as well

:19:38.:19:42.

as being angry with the older generation. All

:19:43.:19:49.

one tweeter asking whether it is possible for a second referendum to

:19:50.:19:56.

take place. You would need a new Prime Minister, you would need a

:19:57.:20:00.

general election, and even then, you would need a new parliament to

:20:01.:20:03.

support a second referendum, and all of those things are not guaranteed.

:20:04.:20:08.

So no prospect of that in the near future. In the next few minutes, a

:20:09.:20:15.

promise will go back to the ongoing story about the attack on the

:20:16.:20:20.

Istanbul airport. Suicide bombers have struck there and ten people

:20:21.:20:22.

have died. We will keep you up-to-date with that.

:20:23.:20:48.

The world's first clone has been produced of an adult -- adult

:20:49.:21:00.

mammal. For the first time in 20 years, Russian and American

:21:01.:21:03.

spacecraft have docked in orbit at the start of a new era of

:21:04.:21:05.

cooperation in space. It shattered a record that had set

:21:06.:21:20.

for 34 years. Welcome back to the hubbub of the

:21:21.:21:40.

press floor. We are being told that the press conference after that

:21:41.:21:44.

meeting of 28 leaders could start in the next 15 or 20 minutes. When it

:21:45.:21:49.

starts, you will see it live an outside source. Away from the

:21:50.:21:54.

European union, our lead story is what is happening on the main

:21:55.:21:58.

airport at Istanbul. It has been reported that ten people have died.

:21:59.:22:06.

The latest report into the attack on the American diplomatic mission

:22:07.:22:09.

in Benghazi in Libya in 2012 has accused the military

:22:10.:22:11.

Among the most read online is that 50 Cent was recently detained

:22:12.:22:21.

for using indecent language during a music festival

:22:22.:22:23.

on the Caribbean island of St Kitts and Nevis.

:22:24.:22:25.

The rapper had to stay an extra day for a court hearing

:22:26.:22:28.

and pay a fine of more than twenty thousand dollars.

:22:29.:22:38.

It has been an easier date for the markets.

:22:39.:22:44.

Companies on the FTSE 250 index, the best barometer of the UK

:22:45.:22:47.

That is, in the context of losing more in a day on the Friday than it

:22:48.:22:59.

had since the 1980s. The pound also showed signs

:23:00.:23:01.

of recovery, rising 0.4% Let's get more on the international

:23:02.:23:03.

reaction from Michelle Fleury I guess people are feeling a little

:23:04.:23:13.

bit more confident about things? I think you can say it is a classic

:23:14.:23:19.

reaction, something that is called a dead cat bounce. When you see the

:23:20.:23:25.

shop. We saw in global financial markets at a certain point,

:23:26.:23:28.

investors start to wonder whether there are some bargains to be had,

:23:29.:23:32.

and you see this tentative return to buying. Just to talk you through

:23:33.:23:37.

Stirling, you mentioned there, it felt 8% on Friday following the

:23:38.:23:43.

outcome of the referendum. That is a bigger fool the Meesawat in the

:23:44.:23:47.

financial crisis, and this is a bigger fool than Meesawat -- when we

:23:48.:24:00.

saw in the exchange rate crisis in 1992. It is still broadly down

:24:01.:24:04.
