:00:10. > :00:11.Hello, I'm Karin Giannone, welcome to Outside Source,

:00:12. > :00:17.The leader of the UK Independence Party,

:00:18. > :00:21.The man who campaigned for decades to take Britain out of the EU says

:00:22. > :00:32.And possibly achieve more than we managed to get in that referendum

:00:33. > :00:36.and so I feel it's right that I should now stand aside. -- I

:00:37. > :00:37.couldn't possibly achieve. Also in the last few minutes,

:00:38. > :00:40.we've heard that Boris Johnson has given his backing to Andrea Leadsom

:00:41. > :00:43.in the tory leadership contest. We'll be live in Westminster

:00:44. > :00:45.for the latest. There's been a suspected suicide

:00:46. > :00:48.bombing at one of Islam's holiest sites in Saudi Arabia,

:00:49. > :00:53.during the final days of Ramadan. Chris Evans steps down

:00:54. > :00:55.as the presenter of the world famous BBC TV show Top Gear

:00:56. > :00:59.after just one season. And we'll hear live

:01:00. > :01:02.from Nasa's mission control. There are likely to be a lot

:01:03. > :01:05.of nerves - their billion dollar Juno probe is hours away

:01:06. > :01:09.from reaching Jupiter And get in touch with me @KarinBBC

:01:10. > :01:38.or by using the hashtag bbcos. Well, we'll get more shortly

:01:39. > :01:41.on Boris Johnson's endorsement of Andrea Leadsom for leader

:01:42. > :01:43.of the Conservative But first, Nigel Farage has

:01:44. > :01:46.announced he's stepping down as leader of the

:01:47. > :01:47.UK Independence Party. He has been one of the leaders

:01:48. > :01:50.of the euro-sceptic movement After the referendum resulted

:01:51. > :01:57.in a vote for Brexit, he said he'd done "his bit"

:01:58. > :02:08.and couldn't possibly achieve more. My aim in being politics was to get

:02:09. > :02:12.Britain out of the European Union. That is what we voted for in that

:02:13. > :02:16.referendum two weeks ago and that is why I now feel that I've done my

:02:17. > :02:22.bit, that I couldn't possibly achieve more than we managed to get

:02:23. > :02:28.in that referendum, and so I feel it's right that I should now stand

:02:29. > :02:34.aside as leader of Ukip. I will watch the renegotiation process in

:02:35. > :02:39.Brussels like a hawk and perhaps comment in the European Parliament

:02:40. > :02:43.from time to time. During the referendum campaign, I said that I

:02:44. > :02:45.want my country back. What I'm saying today is I want my life back,

:02:46. > :02:52.and it begins right now. Thank you. It's fair to say Mr Farage

:02:53. > :02:54.is a divisive figure. In fact, that is true even

:02:55. > :02:56.within his own party. This was a tweet from another senior

:02:57. > :02:59.UKIP politician Douglas Carswell. It's known that the two

:03:00. > :03:10.don't see eye to eye. Let's go over to Westminster and

:03:11. > :03:14.talk to blood Eagle correspondent Tom Bateman. Not the first time

:03:15. > :03:21.Nigel Farage has stepped down, but is this for good? -- talk to

:03:22. > :03:25.political correspondent. Not for the first time, but I assume this time

:03:26. > :03:29.it is meant, he stood down after the General Election in the United

:03:30. > :03:33.Kingdom last year. He said during that campaign if he didn't win a

:03:34. > :03:38.seat of Parliament, he would resign his position as leader of that

:03:39. > :03:44.party. He didn't win that seat and did resign but just a few days

:03:45. > :03:49.later, he decided to reinstate and self, citing support from the party.

:03:50. > :03:53.He has been a colourful figure in British politics and attempted to

:03:54. > :04:01.take on the political establishment in this country. He has done that by

:04:02. > :04:04.really drawing support from the main base of Conservative and Labour

:04:05. > :04:09.parties with that Euro-sceptic ticket. He made it his lifetime

:04:10. > :04:13.ambition to get Britain out of the European Union and obviously feels,

:04:14. > :04:17.through that referendum result being achieved, he has achieved that game

:04:18. > :04:22.and head he said that Michael and hence he said that he is going. And

:04:23. > :04:25.the whole point of being for Ukip was to get Britain out of the

:04:26. > :04:33.European Union, what will those on site want to do now? -- and hence he

:04:34. > :04:39.said he is going. They will wonder if they have achieved their entire

:04:40. > :04:43.objectives. Maybe Nigel Farage thinks it has. So he will carry on

:04:44. > :04:49.as a member of the European Parliament. But others in your kit

:04:50. > :04:53.-- others and Ukip me try to go for that leadership, but we know they're

:04:54. > :04:57.only MP Douglas Carswell will not, who used to be a conservative and

:04:58. > :05:01.jumped ship to Ukip. He will not go but other figures expressed an

:05:02. > :05:06.interest. The party may continue and it may have a clear view all --

:05:07. > :05:14.clear rule, because in the coming months, we will see the start of a

:05:15. > :05:18.negotiated exit and Nigel Farage has said he will watch like a hawk in

:05:19. > :05:22.negotiations, as will the party, who will clearly have something to see

:05:23. > :05:27.if they feel Britain is not getting a good deal against its European

:05:28. > :05:29.counterparts. Stay with us, we will talk about the Conservatives next.

:05:30. > :05:32.One of the key issues of the Leave campaign has been immigration.

:05:33. > :05:35.It was discussed today by Liam Fox and Andrea Leadsom, both

:05:36. > :05:38.of whom want to be the next leader of the Tory party.

:05:39. > :05:57.The result is final. It must be respected and I will respect it.

:05:58. > :06:07.The United Kingdom will leave the European Union, freedom of movement

:06:08. > :06:13.will end and the European Parliament will decide -- of Houses of

:06:14. > :06:19.Parliament will decide who can live, work and contribute to our national

:06:20. > :06:23.life from Europe. This was courageous and there can be

:06:24. > :06:28.no backsliding on this issue and no question of a second referendum. It

:06:29. > :06:33.is quite clear that the public rejected the concept of free

:06:34. > :06:36.movement and the price of including such free movement as part of our

:06:37. > :06:41.trade deal would be regarded as a betrayal by the British people. We

:06:42. > :06:46.have nothing to fear from a more free-trade environment.

:06:47. > :06:56.We can speak to Tom again. And Andrea Leadsom has just got a

:06:57. > :07:01.high-profile endorsement? She has, and Boris Johnson, former Mayor of

:07:02. > :07:07.London, who campaigned for the leave vote has thrown his weight behind

:07:08. > :07:12.Andrea Letson, with the Zap and drive to be the next leader of this

:07:13. > :07:16.country. -- Andrea Leadsom. He went on to seizure was level-headed,

:07:17. > :07:24.kind, trustworthy and approachable. Those water could -- those words are

:07:25. > :07:30.significant as some people saw the act against Mr Johnson as an act of

:07:31. > :07:35.treachery. Other key colleague, one of the key architects within that

:07:36. > :07:38.engineer that leave vote in the referendum, Michael Gove, who was

:07:39. > :07:43.always going to be managing his campaign bid for Number 10, they had

:07:44. > :07:48.decided that he would run for the leadership itself. That was seen by

:07:49. > :07:53.allies of Mr Johnson as an act of betrayal and treachery, adding to

:07:54. > :07:59.what has been a bitter and divisive referendum campaign and the

:08:00. > :08:04.aftermath as we have that leadership bid for Number 10. No surprise Mr

:08:05. > :08:10.Johnson is not giving backing to Michael Gove and giving it to Andrea

:08:11. > :08:15.Leadsom, and calling her kind and trustworthy maybe a bit of a Dick.

:08:16. > :08:20.Tom, thank you. There's been a series of attacks

:08:21. > :08:25.in Saudi Arabia today. Earlier, a suicide bomber set off

:08:26. > :08:28.explosives near the US Then we heard about explosions

:08:29. > :08:33.near a Shia mosque in Qatif Shortly after that we got news

:08:34. > :08:37.of a suicide bombing in Medina. It was close to the Prophet's

:08:38. > :08:40.Mosque, which is one There are reports that two security

:08:41. > :08:43.officers were killed there. Let's get more now from

:08:44. > :08:57.Lina Sinjab in Beirut. What we know about what happened? I

:08:58. > :09:04.have been talking to some residents in Medina today who have said that

:09:05. > :09:07.local news has said that apparently some police officers were sitting

:09:08. > :09:14.about to break the fast when a young man approached them and then

:09:15. > :09:23.detonated himself. Some people inside the mosque. They thought it

:09:24. > :09:30.was the Canon breaking the fast then realised that was an explosion. We

:09:31. > :09:37.know that at least two died from the police officers, but I have also

:09:38. > :09:41.spoken to the Minister for the interior, who said shortly they will

:09:42. > :09:45.issue a statement but right now they are still investigating the attacks

:09:46. > :09:53.there. What about the significance of the target and the timing? Yes,

:09:54. > :09:59.this is a very important question. We can see a series of what seems to

:10:00. > :10:06.be coordinated attacks across three cities, and the one in Medina is

:10:07. > :10:12.important, because it happened in a wholly city and holy shrine at a

:10:13. > :10:17.critical time. -- holy city. Many Muslims from around the world come

:10:18. > :10:27.to Medina for prayers, during Ramadan, to pray for the prophet.

:10:28. > :10:33.And it is a big blow to security in the Saudi Arabia at this time and

:10:34. > :10:37.place. I was going to ask how common is it for attacks in Saudi Arabia?

:10:38. > :10:43.That have been some incidents that are happening. But this is one of

:10:44. > :10:49.the most significant ones happening at this particular time of the year.

:10:50. > :10:56.Of course there were other incidents during pilgrimage or during Ramadan,

:10:57. > :11:05.but they were only accidents. This is as... This is from a suicide

:11:06. > :11:12.bomber, and happened at a time when they are collating attacks across

:11:13. > :11:16.the region, and signs that the group are hitting back. Thank you very

:11:17. > :11:24.much. In a few minutes, I'll play

:11:25. > :11:29.you a special report from inside Falluja in Iraq,

:11:30. > :11:34.which has recently been retaken from so-called Islamic State

:11:35. > :11:54.by the Iraqi Army. Central London has been hit by

:11:55. > :11:56.terrorist attacks, there is growing evidence that Al-Qaeda is

:11:57. > :12:04.responsible. The winner is Deutschland.

:12:05. > :12:07.In South Africa, celebration parties have been cancelled.

:12:08. > :12:12.The man entered the palace through a downstairs window and made his way

:12:13. > :12:16.to the Queen's downstairs bedroom, then asked for a cigarette, she then

:12:17. > :12:25.summoned a footman who took the man away.

:12:26. > :12:36.One child. One teacher. One book. And one pen. All can change the

:12:37. > :12:43.world. Education is the only solution.

:12:44. > :12:47.This is Outside Source, live from the BBC newsroom.

:12:48. > :12:54.One of the most influential figures in the campaign to take the UK

:12:55. > :12:56.out of the European Union - Nigel Farage - has stood

:12:57. > :13:01.down as leader of the UK Independence Party.

:13:02. > :13:03.Other reports around the BBC right now.

:13:04. > :13:06.Special services have taken place in Bangladesh to mourn the death

:13:07. > :13:09.of 20 hostages and two officers after an Islamist attack on a cafe.

:13:10. > :13:12.One of the dead gunmen is said to be the son of a politician

:13:13. > :13:22.BBC World Service Radio reports that radiation levels

:13:23. > :13:24.in the Pacific Ocean are returning to normal,

:13:25. > :13:26.five years after a meltdown at Japan's Fukushima

:13:27. > :13:29.Immediately after the accident, radiation levels off the coast

:13:30. > :13:37.of Japan were tens of millions of times higher than normal.

:13:38. > :13:39.Canada's Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, has become the first

:13:40. > :13:41.head of government to take part in Toronto's annual

:13:42. > :13:45.He told a TV station that Canada is considering a gender-neutral

:13:46. > :13:54.More on that story on the BBC News App.

:13:55. > :14:00.You may have heard that there was a huge bomb attack

:14:01. > :14:09.It happened in the Karrada district when it was busy with people.

:14:10. > :14:12.It's thought at least 160 people died, which makes it the deadliest

:14:13. > :14:23.So-called Islamic State has claimed responsibility.

:14:24. > :14:25.The bombing comes just a week after IS militants lost control

:14:26. > :14:28.Our Middle East Editor, Jeremy Bowen,

:14:29. > :14:41.This is Falluja, losing this town so hard to be Joe Hart this sort

:14:42. > :14:49.Islamic that the last out by massacring civilians in Baghdad.

:14:50. > :14:55.Iraq's perpetual war was caused by a chain of consequences that leads

:14:56. > :15:01.back to the invasion of 2003. Iraq's invaders, the US and Britain,

:15:02. > :15:07.removed a hated dictator and was -- dissolved his army and state. But

:15:08. > :15:13.there was no real plan to reconstruct the country, and made

:15:14. > :15:19.plans work -- and made it worse. Jihadists were not in Iraq before

:15:20. > :15:23.the invasion, and Shia and Sunni Muslims, whose sectarian war started

:15:24. > :15:31.during the occupation, could coexist. There are lot of IS members

:15:32. > :15:36.here. This elite unit of the Iraqi army took the lead in Falluja,

:15:37. > :15:43.helped by American air strikes, one pull this IS compound. -- one

:15:44. > :15:51.destroyed this combine. Bodies lying in the rubble. Suicide vest?

:15:52. > :15:54.Exactly. So-called Islamic State to route

:15:55. > :16:01.from Al-Qaeda, following the invasion. Before they were killed,

:16:02. > :16:09.IS regular car for a suicide attack. -- they had changed this car.

:16:10. > :16:15.This is from a grenade? Yes, he just pulled and blew up all the vehicles.

:16:16. > :16:22.So this was intended for a suicide mission? Exactly.

:16:23. > :16:28.This car bomb was not used. After defeat in Falluja, IS put a much

:16:29. > :16:34.bigger one into Baghdad. In a suburban house, IS set up a prison.

:16:35. > :16:39.This isn't the only private jail in Iraq. In a fractured country,

:16:40. > :16:47.arbitrary imprisonment is a display of power. IS chained prisoners in

:16:48. > :16:52.cages the size of dog kennels. To get power and keep it, politicians

:16:53. > :16:58.and warlords in Iraq have exploited sectarian fears.

:16:59. > :17:02.The jihadists of Islamic State would not have been able to take such a

:17:03. > :17:09.grip on Iraq without the sectarian conflict between Shia and Sunni

:17:10. > :17:16.Muslims. The argument between them goes back 1400 years. But the

:17:17. > :17:23.invasion in 2003 had the effect of redefining and supercharging it for

:17:24. > :17:30.the 21st century. Around 45,000 people, all Sunni

:17:31. > :17:36.Muslims displaced by the fighting against Islamic State, are in a camp

:17:37. > :17:42.outside Falluja. They get water, food and basic shelter from the

:17:43. > :17:48.heat. But new families are still arriving. Unicef says the lives of

:17:49. > :17:55.one in five Iraqi children, 3.6 million, are in serious risk because

:17:56. > :18:03.of war. A bullet hit this goal as they

:18:04. > :18:10.escaped the Lodz. -- this girl as they escaped Falluja. Men and women

:18:11. > :18:14.were separated and beaten for days. This child hopes their father might

:18:15. > :18:19.join the family again, but neither saw him beaten to death as other

:18:20. > :18:25.neighbours were shot. Many men in a camper still injured and too

:18:26. > :18:31.frightened to be identified. -- many men in the camp. These Falluja men

:18:32. > :18:35.claim the invasion for what happens in the Middle East.

:18:36. > :18:40.TRANSLATION: Outside countries entered Iraq and destroyed us.

:18:41. > :18:44.Afghans, Iranians and others. America put us in the mouth of Iran

:18:45. > :18:50.and other countries and left us. The camp is on edge. Please try to

:18:51. > :18:59.control food queues by firing into the air. -- the police try to

:19:00. > :19:02.control. Iraqis have often made but is much worse for themselves. But

:19:03. > :19:06.mistakes made by the United States and Britain 13 years ago pushed them

:19:07. > :19:18.down the road to catastrophe. There's more from Jeremy and from

:19:19. > :19:22.Iraq on the BBC website. Time for business News.

:19:23. > :19:24.Remember the Libor scandal back in 2012?

:19:25. > :19:27.Well, three former Barclays traders have been found guilty of trying

:19:28. > :19:29.to rig that key lending rate used between banks.

:19:30. > :19:31.Jonathan Mathew, Jay Merchant and Alex Pabonwere were accused

:19:32. > :19:33.of conspiracy to defraud in setting the Libor rate

:19:34. > :19:41.The BBC's Economics Correspondent Andy Verity has more.

:19:42. > :19:47.I can hear at Southwark Crown Court in central London, where we have had

:19:48. > :19:51.three guilty verdicts for former Barclays Bank was found guilty of a

:19:52. > :19:55.conspiracy to defraud. An international one. They have been

:19:56. > :20:00.found guilty of the flooding back Ruth Lee, the interbank offered

:20:01. > :20:08.rate, which should be measuring how banks can borrow money from each

:20:09. > :20:14.other. -- guilty of fraud in Libor. But such large sums were being bet,

:20:15. > :20:17.a total of the hundred and $50 trillion, five times as much as

:20:18. > :20:22.produced in the world of the year, so much was riding on Libor, the

:20:23. > :20:26.traders would speak to the bank people, who set the rates, and

:20:27. > :20:32.asking them to tweak it up or down, and if it moved by 100th of 1%, they

:20:33. > :20:36.could make or lose $1 million, so the incentive was there for this

:20:37. > :20:42.rates to be corrupted and according to the jury hear about is what three

:20:43. > :20:47.of these traders did, but two on trial here haven't been convicted.

:20:48. > :20:50.The jury couldn't reach a verdict. This international conspiracy has

:20:51. > :20:53.had a strange ending at the court. Andy Verity reporting.

:20:54. > :20:56.Seven football clubs in Spain have been ordered to repay millions

:20:57. > :20:57.of dollars they received in state subsidies.

:20:58. > :21:03.In one case, the world's richest club, Real Madrid,

:21:07. > :21:23.That's the EU competition commissioner.

:21:24. > :21:26.The sums involved are small change for the Spanish clubs though.

:21:27. > :21:28.Real Madrid's bill is less than one-fifth of the

:21:29. > :21:30.$111 million transfer fee it was reported to have

:21:31. > :21:38.And the club's top goalscorer, Cristiano Ronaldo, could easily

:21:42. > :21:53.Britain's Finance Minister is suggesting a massive tax cut

:21:54. > :21:55.for business to encourage more investment in the UK following

:21:56. > :22:01.George Osborne says he wants to slash corporation tax

:22:02. > :22:06.That would give the UK the lowest corporation tax

:22:07. > :22:14.Here's what he, and the Shadow Chancellor, had to say about it.

:22:15. > :22:21.In my view, the strongest signal we could send the world after this

:22:22. > :22:25.referendum that Britain is open to the world and ready to do business

:22:26. > :22:30.would be to cut corporation tax further. We should aim for a rate of

:22:31. > :22:35.15% and preferably lower. I have to say that a lack of

:22:36. > :22:39.planning for a leave vote is becoming evident across all policy

:22:40. > :22:44.areas. Instead of a clear plan of action we have had ad hoc statements

:22:45. > :22:50.and announcements. I want to raise the critical questions. The budget

:22:51. > :22:53.this year suggested that this is one percentage point reduction in the

:22:54. > :22:58.headline corporation tax rate would reduce expected revenues by around

:22:59. > :23:03.?1 billion. Does he still hold to this estimate and how would he pay

:23:04. > :23:09.for any losses in tax revenues from the proposed corporation tax cuts?

:23:10. > :23:13.Who will pay? The corporation tax cuts we have produced in this

:23:14. > :23:16.government have not only given us the lowest corporation tax rate

:23:17. > :23:21.amongst any of the advanced economies in the world, we have seen

:23:22. > :23:26.a 20% increase in receipts from corporation tax because businesses

:23:27. > :23:28.are coming to this country, growing business in this country.

:23:29. > :23:34.Another high-profile resignation to bring you up to date with.

:23:35. > :23:37.It's only been a matter of weeks since his debut,

:23:38. > :23:40.but the host of the BBC's famous Top Gear show has resigned.

:23:41. > :23:50.Evans had been on the revamped program for only one series -

:23:51. > :23:52.since the departure of Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond

:23:53. > :24:00.Welcome to Top Gear with our all-new improved audience.

:24:01. > :24:08.When Chris Evans replaced Jeremy Clarkson as the face
