:00:09. > :00:14.Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:15. > :00:18.More than 15,000 people have been suspended by the education ministry

:00:19. > :00:22.in Turkey, and another 20,000 teachers have

:00:23. > :00:27.It's the latest purge of officials after the coup attempt on Friday.

:00:28. > :00:29.We'll hear from our correspondent in Istanbul.

:00:30. > :00:32.In the UK Angela Eagle has dropped out of the race for

:00:33. > :00:37.It means just two candidates will contest it -

:00:38. > :00:44.The 17-year-old who carried out an axe attack on a train

:00:45. > :00:48.in Germany apparently made a video before the attack,

:00:49. > :01:01.The International Olympic Committee is taking legal advice

:01:02. > :01:04.on whether it can ban Russia's entire team from Rio 2016.

:01:05. > :01:07.And Nintendo's share price has now doubled in value since the release

:01:08. > :01:32.Let's look at the scale Turkish government's response

:01:33. > :01:52.Just today we heard that 15,000 people have been suspended

:01:53. > :01:55.The licenses of 21,000 teachers in private institutions

:01:56. > :01:58.1500 university deans have been told to resign.

:01:59. > :02:01.That comes after over 8,000 police officers have been removed

:02:02. > :02:03.and 6,000 members of the military have been removed.

:02:04. > :02:05.Also today several TV and radio stations have

:02:06. > :02:13.You hear all this, and think, can the state just do this?

:02:14. > :02:22.Here's Selin Girit in Istanbul on the legality of these dismissals.

:02:23. > :02:32.they can dismiss people from their posts and revoke licences. The

:02:33. > :02:37.turkey 's watchdog for TV and radio has the right to revoke licences of

:02:38. > :02:42.certain radios and TV channels. Having the right does not

:02:43. > :02:47.necessarily mean it is right to do that. That is what many people

:02:48. > :02:59.across Turkey, especially critics of the government asked themselves.

:03:00. > :03:08.Over 30,000 people is that people are either dismissed or jailed, or

:03:09. > :03:12.be tamed. However the coup attempt actually had more support within the

:03:13. > :03:19.bureaucracy, with the police force, within the army, and initially

:03:20. > :03:24.believed. If these people are all supporting the movement as the

:03:25. > :03:29.government suggests, how in the first place will be able to

:03:30. > :03:33.infiltrate in such numbers into such a significant positions within the

:03:34. > :03:41.state bureaucracy and police force, and the army. And the question is

:03:42. > :03:48.whether President Erdogan is using this oppression of the coup attempt

:03:49. > :03:52.as an opportunity to enhance power. I wonder how public opinion is on

:03:53. > :03:58.people being driven out of the education system. On Friday night we

:03:59. > :04:01.saw Mr Erdogan picking up support from people taking to the streets

:04:02. > :04:07.but his public opinion behind this move? When we are talking about

:04:08. > :04:12.Turkey we need to emphasise that this is a very divided country,

:04:13. > :04:18.divided society. It has already been polarised for several years now.

:04:19. > :04:21.After the coup attempt, it is that polarisation within that society as

:04:22. > :04:26.well. Having said that, there was not support for the coup attempt at

:04:27. > :04:32.cross Turkey will stop there were of course people but in a minority that

:04:33. > :04:39.will be supporting such a move. Turkey has suffered from several of

:04:40. > :04:43.these in the past. Many people are killed and five such incidents with

:04:44. > :04:48.people detained and arrested. Turkey has witnessed all of those. It was

:04:49. > :04:54.not necessary any support for a coup attempt.

:04:55. > :04:57.Here in London, there's been another twist in the opposition

:04:58. > :05:00.Last week Angela Eagle announced she would challenge Labour

:05:01. > :05:05.Today she she said she was dropping out -

:05:06. > :05:08.and instead will be supporting Owen Smith who also

:05:09. > :05:12.Remember Jeremy Corbyn was elected last summer by the party's

:05:13. > :05:17.membership - but in the wake of the Brexit vote, Labour Mps

:05:18. > :05:18.overwhelmingly supported a vote of no confidence.

:05:19. > :05:23.Well here's Angela Eagle Owen Smith earlier.

:05:24. > :05:31.Owen Smith has a lead and I think it is in the best interests

:05:32. > :05:37.of the Labour Party that we now come together so we can have one

:05:38. > :05:39.candidate, so I am announcing tonight that I am withdrawing

:05:40. > :05:53.I would like to congratulate Owen oncoming top in this race and then

:05:54. > :05:55.going on I think to take on Jeremy Corbyn.

:05:56. > :05:58.I would just like to say to Angela, who is a great friend of mine

:05:59. > :06:01.and a wonderful Labour leader who has been a pioneer

:06:02. > :06:06.in our party for many years, that I will want to work

:06:07. > :06:08.side-by-side with Angela through this contest,

:06:09. > :06:17.I want Angela to be at my right hand throughout this.

:06:18. > :06:20.I need Angela to work alongside me throughout this contest

:06:21. > :06:24.She is a great Labour woman and I absolutely cannot do

:06:25. > :06:26.without her in what will be very few months.

:06:27. > :06:32.It is good to be a difficult few months, that is putting it mildly.

:06:33. > :06:40.The Labour membership in the polling still suggests Jeremy Corbyn. It

:06:41. > :06:43.will be difficult it will be a hard-fought battle for the soul of

:06:44. > :06:48.the Labour Party in the United Kingdom. We can expect the challenge

:06:49. > :06:49.of Owen Smith against Jeremy Corbyn, the incumbent leader, to last

:06:50. > :07:02.through the summer we will have an announcement

:07:03. > :07:09.of the winner after the party conference. Owen Smith is being

:07:10. > :07:14.called the unity candidate by the Labour MPs. The support against the

:07:15. > :07:18.current labour Jeremy Corbyn. He has a mountain to climb against Jeremy

:07:19. > :07:22.Corbyn. He was elected by a landslide in the Labour Party

:07:23. > :07:28.membership last year. At the moment of the indication so far that we

:07:29. > :07:32.have, in the sense of the little bit of polling that has been done, it

:07:33. > :07:37.does suggest that Jeremy Corbyn is still way ahead. What we have known

:07:38. > :07:42.from Owen Smith, his challenger, is a campaign to try to recruit people

:07:43. > :07:48.as registered supporters to try to join the Labour Party. If they can

:07:49. > :07:52.join in the next 24 hours so they can vote in that election, he wants

:07:53. > :07:57.more people to join up to vote for him. I keep you this would unity but

:07:58. > :08:01.isn't the reality of the situation, which ever way this election goes,

:08:02. > :08:05.they will be a significant chunk of the Labour Party that find it

:08:06. > :08:09.completely unpalatable? There will. That is what is at the heart of the

:08:10. > :08:14.crisis that has engulfed the Labour Party since those seismic events of

:08:15. > :08:22.last month when the UK voted to leave the EU. This became a moment

:08:23. > :08:26.that had reverberations in the governing Conservative Party but

:08:27. > :08:30.also the Labour Party. It had its own leadership crisis unfolding.

:08:31. > :08:37.Jeremy Corbyn as a left-wing leader of the party still has the support

:08:38. > :08:42.of many of the mass membership. Grassroots support of people who say

:08:43. > :08:45.they felt locked out of the establishment system, the political

:08:46. > :08:53.bubble of Westminster and believe that the system has ignored them.

:08:54. > :08:56.Those people still support Jeremy Corbyn and feel incredibly

:08:57. > :09:01.passionate about his leadership of the party. Whereas the MPs, the

:09:02. > :09:05.people in Westminster, the majority of them do not support Jeremy

:09:06. > :09:08.Corbyn. Here is the crisis at the centre of the party because they

:09:09. > :09:14.believe he cannot win an election for them. When it comes to the vote,

:09:15. > :09:19.the people will decide the next leader of the Labour Party. Every MP

:09:20. > :09:22.will get one vote just as one of those many hundreds of thousands who

:09:23. > :09:29.have no special privileges. This will be a very hard-fought fight. It

:09:30. > :09:30.is for the soul of the party. You will be helping us cover that story

:09:31. > :09:35.over the next few months. The Islamic State group has released

:09:36. > :09:39.a video that it says shows the teenager who carried out an axe

:09:40. > :09:43.attack in Germany yesterday. We know the attacker

:09:44. > :09:47.was shot dead by police - and that he was a 17-year-old

:09:48. > :09:51.Afghan asylum seeker. This is a still from the video -

:09:52. > :09:55.we see the man brandishing a knife and calls himself an "IS soldier"

:09:56. > :09:59.who's preparing for The attack was near the city of

:10:00. > :10:08.Wurzburg. Four people were injured -

:10:09. > :10:20.all are from Hong Kong. The attack was on a train. This is a

:10:21. > :10:20.image of two of the people who were attacked.

:10:21. > :10:26.The South China Morning Post had this picture showing two of them.

:10:27. > :10:33.Two of those people are still in a critical condition. A total of five

:10:34. > :10:37.people were injured because another passer-by was injured while the

:10:38. > :10:44.attacker was running away from the police. The attacker himself was

:10:45. > :10:49.also shot dead by police whilst running away. Apparently he then

:10:50. > :10:52.tried to attack the police as well. What we have to clarify as you have

:10:53. > :11:03.mentioned quite rightly is that we have this video that ISC is the

:11:04. > :11:07.attacker. We have no evidence that is the case. Officials in Bavaria

:11:08. > :11:11.are analysing this video. They are looking at it to check the identity

:11:12. > :11:16.of this man. Until we have confirmation we only really have the

:11:17. > :11:23.word from the IES group who are claiming this is the attacker. IES

:11:24. > :11:29.has also claimed that the attacker was acting under the orders. We have

:11:30. > :11:33.to take that with the pinch of salt. So far there is no concrete evidence

:11:34. > :11:40.from police and officials here that this attacker was formally linked to

:11:41. > :11:44.other Islamist networks. So far, they say the only evidence they have

:11:45. > :11:48.is that he was acting on his own. This could change because throughout

:11:49. > :11:51.the day we've had new information coming through. We will have to

:11:52. > :11:57.strike a note of caution because it is a different thing he was a lone

:11:58. > :12:01.wolf acting on his own or acting with Islamic State as a source of

:12:02. > :12:06.inspiration, or was he part of that network? Until we have the official

:12:07. > :12:10.word from the authorities we cannot see which of those two marketers. Do

:12:11. > :12:16.we know anything about where he was living, who he was living with, how

:12:17. > :12:20.he was leading his life? Police have said that he arrived here in Germany

:12:21. > :12:27.from Afghanistan about two years ago. He was just 15 years old. He

:12:28. > :12:30.was an unaccompanied minor, like many from Afghanistan. Thousands of

:12:31. > :12:37.young Afghans coming without their parents. Azzy young person, he was

:12:38. > :12:39.able -- he was put into care in a refugee home at first. In the past

:12:40. > :12:41.fortnight he stayed with the past fortnight he stayed with a foster

:12:42. > :12:45.family. In a few minutes we'll be talking

:12:46. > :12:48.about the racial abuse received by Leslie Jones -

:12:49. > :12:51.star of Ghostbusters - on Twitter. And why Twitter isn't

:12:52. > :13:07.doing more to stop it. Lincolnshire Police have confirmed

:13:08. > :13:10.that a man and two women who died after a shooting in Spalding

:13:11. > :13:15.were all known to one another. A little earlier, the police gave

:13:16. > :13:24.more details about the incident. At the scene, the officers found a

:13:25. > :13:29.deceased man along with two women who received serious injuries. CBR

:13:30. > :13:36.was attempted on both women. I am sad to report that both women have

:13:37. > :13:40.subsequently died. We believe a shotgun was involved in the incident

:13:41. > :13:45.and are currently investigating the circumstances of this tragic

:13:46. > :13:50.incident. We confirm that we are no longer seeking anyone else in

:13:51. > :13:54.connection to this tragedy. I can also confirm that no shots were

:13:55. > :13:55.fired by police and this is not being treated as a terrorist related

:13:56. > :14:10.incident. This is Outside Source live

:14:11. > :14:12.from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story is? The purge

:14:13. > :14:15.of Turkish officials unleashed after the failed military coup has

:14:16. > :14:34.spread to the education sector, The education sector has been

:14:35. > :14:38.hard-hit today. From Syria, we are told by activist that at least 56

:14:39. > :14:41.civilians including children have been killed in air strikes by the

:14:42. > :14:48.US-led coalition. The strikes two villages held by ISIS militants in

:14:49. > :14:52.northern Serbia. The fire on a true boss in Taiwan has killed all 26

:14:53. > :14:56.people on board. They were tourists from mainland China and heading back

:14:57. > :15:04.to the airport. -- in northern Syria. This is a mini heatwave in

:15:05. > :15:08.the UK at the moment. There are some dust doubles that you can see on a

:15:09. > :15:13.farm in the south of England. The weather looks set to continue.

:15:14. > :15:17.The International Monetary Fund says the UK's decision to leave

:15:18. > :15:20.the European Union had had a negative impact on the world

:15:21. > :15:32.It's downgraded its forecast for global growth to 3.1%, a.1% drop.

:15:33. > :15:35.The UK is now forecast to have 1.3% growth next year,

:15:36. > :15:43.It says the UK will be the worst affected of all developed economies.

:15:44. > :15:50.I've been getting the analysis of Andrew Walker.

:15:51. > :15:57.People are thinking about what is Britain's trading relationship with

:15:58. > :16:02.Europe and the rest of the world going to look like? There in mind

:16:03. > :16:06.that even so, this is based on very little hard data. The only really

:16:07. > :16:11.quite clear, unambiguous thing they have got apart from a few surveys

:16:12. > :16:15.has been what happened in the financial markets. An episode which

:16:16. > :16:23.the IMF describes as severe but orderly. This is very much a case of

:16:24. > :16:27.the IMF saying we do think we're going to see some adverse

:16:28. > :16:31.consequences for the UK but they are not forecasting a recession. Some

:16:32. > :16:35.might be is a cynical eyebrow and see the IMF has interests in this

:16:36. > :16:39.debate. It is not a neutral observer of what the UK and other countries

:16:40. > :16:45.decide to do and as such, it is in its interest to paint Brexit is

:16:46. > :16:49.negative. Some people would say that the managing director is very much

:16:50. > :16:53.of the European integrationist type of tradition. She's a former finance

:16:54. > :16:58.and Trade Minister in France. Some thinks she still has political

:16:59. > :17:04.ambitions to go back there at some stage. This is an exercise that is

:17:05. > :17:07.managed by the chief economist who is a former academic from the

:17:08. > :17:13.California University. These figures do represent what the Economist who

:17:14. > :17:16.genuinely believe that the UK and the rest of the world will be

:17:17. > :17:20.looking at. What surprised me was not the UK growth forecast but both

:17:21. > :17:25.that Nigeria and South Africa have seen that as well... This is not

:17:26. > :17:32.about the British referendum result. It is partly about past falls in

:17:33. > :17:37.commodity prices. Both countries, especially Nigeria, are having a

:17:38. > :17:41.hard time. The fall in the oil price for Nigeria and metal prices for

:17:42. > :17:46.South Africa. Nigeria also has power cuts and political issues. They are

:17:47. > :17:51.quite striking downgrades. There are two countries that had a bit of an

:17:52. > :17:54.upgrade. Brazil and Russia. It is not great news because they are

:17:55. > :18:03.merely contracted slightly less rapidly than the winner.

:18:04. > :18:05.Six years ago, the tobacco company, Philip Morris International

:18:06. > :18:10.It claimed that the Uruguayan government's strong anti smoking

:18:11. > :18:12.policies were damaging to business and free trade.

:18:13. > :18:15.It was one of the first countries to introduce plain packaging

:18:16. > :18:17.on cigarettes and covered much of the packaging

:18:18. > :18:28.Well yesterday an arbitration court run by the World Bank,

:18:29. > :18:31.ruled in favour of Uruguay and said they had the right to continue

:18:32. > :18:46.Let us get more on the story. Lighter Sao Paulo. I am surprised in

:18:47. > :18:54.some way that the government cannot do what it likes anyway? The entire

:18:55. > :18:59.case that Philip Morris brought against Uruguay was based on

:19:00. > :19:02.bilateral treatment that Uruguay signed with Switzerland. That treaty

:19:03. > :19:10.has some clauses about trademarks and brands, and things like that.

:19:11. > :19:13.That treaty was used to try to show that the rules that Uruguay applied

:19:14. > :19:20.in the cigarette industry at home were in violation of those treaties.

:19:21. > :19:24.The panel decided that was not the case and that Uruguay had all the

:19:25. > :19:30.right it needed to actually pursue those packages which helped,

:19:31. > :19:33.according to the health minister of Uruguay, to adjust the amount of

:19:34. > :19:50.smokers in great numbers in about ten years. Thank you very much.

:19:51. > :19:57.As you'll be well aware Pokemon Go has become a global phenomenon.

:19:58. > :19:59.It launched on July 6th and since then Nintendo's

:20:00. > :20:09.That makes Nintendo's market value higher than Sony.

:20:10. > :20:16.All this begs the question whether such a sharp rise is sustainable?

:20:17. > :20:20.That is the question. Investors at the moment seem to think it is worth

:20:21. > :20:26.the money. They tend to be forward-looking. They think the

:20:27. > :20:29.future now as a result of Pokemon Go and issue success, the future for

:20:30. > :20:33.Nintendo has been brighter than has been in its recent past. The

:20:34. > :20:40.question now that investors are asking, how much of the profit from

:20:41. > :20:46.that game will go to the actual company? The answer is not that

:20:47. > :20:53.simple. The developer is a company that is spun off of Google. Nintendo

:20:54. > :20:55.had a stake in that. There is the Pokemon company which is the

:20:56. > :21:00.producer of the game and Nintendo owns a stake in that. It will see

:21:01. > :21:05.some benefit to its bottom line but not necessarily as much as perhaps

:21:06. > :21:09.the rise in share price suggest. Is this a sign that companies like

:21:10. > :21:12.Nintendo who traditionally have built their success on hardware

:21:13. > :21:17.sales now see the future in selling apps or software? It was interesting

:21:18. > :21:22.when the game first came out in the United States, one of the first sort

:21:23. > :21:26.of comments I saw about this was somebody saying, for so long

:21:27. > :21:32.Nintendo has been focused on consoles, the hardware, and that's

:21:33. > :21:37.now perhaps it. To realise the value in some of its other franchisees.

:21:38. > :21:41.Mario Brothers to mention just one. Whether he will start to see

:21:42. > :21:46.Nintendo tried to make money out of that, smartphone apps, that this in

:21:47. > :21:50.part why you see this huge valuation. Those people who would

:21:51. > :21:55.justify the value see it is not just this game, it is what they can do

:21:56. > :22:00.next. It unleashes potential that people had not seen in Nintendo for

:22:01. > :22:04.a long time. For Pokemon, many people had forgotten about Nintendo.

:22:05. > :22:07.If you asked about a Japanese gaming company and -- then Sony would be

:22:08. > :22:12.the name that comes to mind. Thank you very much.

:22:13. > :22:14.Social networking site Twitter has come under fire from a Hollywood

:22:15. > :22:17.actress after she was the victim of a tirade of racial abuse.

:22:18. > :22:20.This is Leslie Jones, she's one of the stars

:22:21. > :22:21.of the all-female remake of Ghostbusters which

:22:22. > :22:27.Last night she was pummelled with a barrage of racist tweets.

:22:28. > :22:35.This is how the actress described it herself.

:22:36. > :22:50.We will not sure many of them to you because it is offensive.

:22:51. > :22:56.The abuse prompted Leslie Jones to take a swipe at twitter. She says it

:22:57. > :22:59.needs to do more to deal with this type of behaviour.

:23:00. > :23:00.''I didn't do anything to deserve this.

:23:01. > :23:20.This is commonplace on Twitter. It is the fact that the barrage she got

:23:21. > :23:25.and our own personal feeling, she called at her personal health. She

:23:26. > :23:29.went on for about three hours on Twitter yesterday, treating the

:23:30. > :23:32.abuse she got. Rogers races but misogynistic as well. Ghostbusters

:23:33. > :23:39.has an all-female cast so there was criticism about that. She said she

:23:40. > :23:42.had tears in her eyes and was coming off twitter. People across the

:23:43. > :23:46.spectrum felt this was wrong and should not be happening. The play to

:23:47. > :23:51.her for highlighting it. She is putting the onus on twitter but is
