Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source. | :00:08. | :00:09. | |
A video has emerged showing the men who killed an elderly | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
priest in France pledging allegiance to Islamic State. | :00:13. | :00:18. | |
I will give you more details on that. | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
In Paris today, religious leaders called for better security | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
Donald Trump has caused a storm talking about the emails | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
Hillary Clinton didn't hand over during an investigation. | :00:27. | :00:34. | |
Pressure, if you are listening, I hope you are able to find the 30,000 | :00:35. | :00:41. | |
e-mails that are missing -- Russia, if you are listening. | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
The economy in the UK expanded faster than expected in the run-up | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
The BBC has been speaking to the Chancellor of the Exchequer about | :00:47. | :00:58. | |
what he thinks will come next. In Syria, a huge bomb attack has killed | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
many people in a mainly Kurdish city. Islamic State is claiming | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
responsibility. We will report from Krakow. | :01:09. | :01:09. | |
Pope Francis has said the recent spate of attacks shows | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
He has just arrived in Poland for his first official visit there. | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
It is that a vast gathering of young Catholics. | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
Stories from Philadelphia, Baghdad, Paris, Nevada, New York, Moscow and | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
other locations around the world. It is an hour of international news. I | :01:27. | :01:28. | |
hope you can stay with me. A video has appeared showing the men | :01:29. | :01:37. | |
who killed an elderly priest in France pledging their allegiance | :01:38. | :01:39. | |
to the leader of We're not going to play any of it | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
to you, but we can show you this Both of the men that you can see | :01:43. | :01:58. | |
were shot dead yesterday by police. We know that one of them twice tried | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
to reach Syria to join Islamic State and that he was known to | :02:04. | :02:04. | |
authorities. Earlier today France's religious | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
leaders met the President, They wanted to ask for increased | :02:13. | :02:14. | |
security at places of worship. The words that follow these attacks | :02:15. | :02:23. | |
have lost their power to console. They used to give France strength, | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
now they highlight its betrayal. In the streets where he grew up, | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
Adel Kermiche is remembered as a troubled man whose radical | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
views had already alerted his TRANSLATION: He was | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
clearly pro-Daesh. Once his parents took him | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
to the police station, they said, lock him up, | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
he's going to commit a crime. The police said they were already | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
monitoring him, but couldn't Last year he was arrested in Germany | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
while trying to reach Syria. Two months later, he was caught | :02:50. | :02:56. | |
again in Turkey and In March this year he was released | :02:57. | :02:58. | |
with an electronic tag, which allowed him to leave | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
his house between 8:30 With every new target | :03:06. | :03:07. | |
and every new location, So that the death of a local priest | :03:08. | :03:19. | |
in this small suburban church becomes a test of national | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
resilience, an attack In Paris, the government was left | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
defending itself against the charge that its defence | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
of France had failed. But was this a failure of | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
intelligence, security or judgment? Or simply the result of freedoms | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
the country wants to protect? TRANSLATION: Everything that can be | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
done under the rule of law There can still be some | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
changes, discussions. We are open to suggestions | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
from the opposition. But you cannot protect the rule | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
of law by rejecting the rule of law. And on a visit to Italy today, | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
the Prime Minister said that the threat from these | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
attacks cross borders, Yesterday's attack in northern | :04:02. | :04:03. | |
France on an innocent Catholic priest in a place of sanctuary | :04:04. | :04:09. | |
and peace was yet another brutal reminder of the threat | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
that we all face. Following on from the atrocities | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
in Nice and Germany, it reinforces the need for action | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
both in Europe and on In the Church of Notre Dame tonight, | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
prayers have begun to honour Father Jacques Hamel | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
and the hostages of Saint Etienne. But faith in France's | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
protectors is harder now, with the country divided over | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
what protection means. 10,000 military personnel | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
are currently deployed. We're now told more of them will be | :04:44. | :04:57. | |
positioned outside Paris. But many are calling for far more | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
fundamental measures. The former Defence Minister Herve | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
Morin said, "We need He went on to explain this meant | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
learning lessons from the countries He is a senior politician in the | :05:07. | :05:23. | |
area where the attack happened, so he has a strong interest. | :05:24. | :05:24. | |
I talked with Lucy Williamson in Paris about what | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
The opposition, both the centre and far right opposition, have called | :05:27. | :05:41. | |
for some quite dramatic changes, including camps to hold people | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
convicted of these sorts of offences or even deporting foreign nationals | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
who are known to be jihadists ought to have jihadists sympathies. The | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
government is under an awful lot of pressure. Increasingly, with every | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
attack that takes place. All the more so, because when those first | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
attacks happened last year, there was a real sense of the country | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
coming together to stand up against them. Now it is a very different | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
mood, there is a real sense of division, people fighting over how | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
best to prevent it is of desperation, if you like, that the | :06:20. | :06:22. | |
Government and security forces have not been able to stop it happening. | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
Defence issues are coming up, issues around multiculturalism as well? | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
There are some very long-standing issues and divisions in France. What | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
is happening now plays right into the middle of them. At the sense | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
among many descendants of North African parents and grandparents, | :06:42. | :06:44. | |
for example, who came here after France ceased to be the colonial | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
power in those countries, some of them feel they have been | :06:49. | :06:51. | |
marginalised, pushed to the outskirts of cities like Paris, not | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
given the same educational or employment opportunities. The sense | :06:56. | :07:00. | |
that there is a prevailing racism in a lot of established society in | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
France which, as they would see it, still sees it as a white, primarily | :07:05. | :07:10. | |
Catholic, country. So playing into all of those divisions and all that | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
history can these attacks, which are being marketed unspun -- and spurn | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
as an attack from people calling themselves Muslims. That presents a | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
much deeper problem for the government than simply stopping | :07:27. | :07:26. | |
them. US politics has been focused | :07:27. | :07:28. | |
on the Democratic National Quite rightly - last night | :07:29. | :07:30. | |
Hillary Clinton became the first woman to become | :07:31. | :07:33. | |
a Presidential nominee. But one Donald Trump press | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
conference has ensured These are the remarks that have | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
caused the controversy. That a person in our Government, | :07:40. | :07:47. | |
crooked Hillary Clinton, here is what gives - | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
be quiet, I know you want to save her - that a person | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
in our Government would delete She gets subpoenaed and she gets | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
rid of 33,000 e-mails, Now, if Russia or China or any other | :07:59. | :08:10. | |
country has those e-mails, I mean to be honest with you, | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
I would love to see them. I will tell you this, | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to find | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. I think you will probably be | :08:24. | :08:31. | |
rewarded mightily by our press. Hillary Clinton's policy advisor | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
released this statement. "This has to be the first time that | :08:37. | :08:48. | |
a major presidential candidate has actively encouraged a foreign power | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
to conduct espionage This has gone from being a matter | :08:52. | :08:53. | |
of curiosity, and a matter of politics, to being a national | :08:54. | :09:00. | |
security issue. Some A big beast of the Republican party | :09:01. | :09:13. | |
linked to be Donald Trump Haas running mate, that did not happen is | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
that he has come to Donald Trump Haas defence. He says... | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
The media seems more upset by Trump's joke about Russian | :09:21. | :09:22. | |
hacking than by the fact that Hillary's personal server | :09:23. | :09:24. | |
I will need some help to set through this, let's bring in Katty Kay from | :09:25. | :09:33. | |
the DNC. -- to sift through this. Was it a joke, a serious comment, a | :09:34. | :09:40. | |
big story, a flash in the pan controversy? It is a big story, | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
certainly dominating news here today. Something quite interesting, | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
the man chosen to be Donald Trump 's vice presidential pick, the governor | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
the Indiana, Mike Pence, sent out a statement saying that if the | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
Russians had been involved in espionage and meddling in American | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
politics then there would be repercussions. It does not quite put | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
him on the same page as his presidential candidate, Donald | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
Trump, who seems to be inviting the Russian intelligence services to | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
hack into Hillary Clinton's server. Donald Trump May at some stage | :10:16. | :10:20. | |
dismiss this as a moment of levity, but I can certainly tell you that | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
national security experts in the United States, both on the left and | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
right of the political spectrum, are not impressed with what he had to | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
say. Don't think that this is a joking matter, especially at the | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
time that the FBI is investigating Russia for hacking into the | :10:39. | :10:41. | |
Democratic party's e-mails and seems to be coming to the conclusion that | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
the Russian Government has been launching a cyber attack against a | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
major American political party. Whatever the truth is behind that, | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
Donald Trump has once again stolen the headlines that the Democrats' | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
own convention. As I watch American 's response, they don't necessarily | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
split to left and right. We see the hierarchy of the security apparatus | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
criticising this, we see very senior politicians criticising this, but | :11:11. | :11:13. | |
lots of Americans would say that this is just the elite | :11:14. | :11:19. | |
misinterpreting Donald Trump again? I do think that pretty much whatever | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
Donald Trump says, his supporters seem to love him. Him standing up | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
against Hillary Clinton, calling her crooked, calling her a liar, his | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
supporters were like that. But it is interesting that when I was in | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
Cleveland last week, the group of Republicans who stayed away was | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
noticeably the national Security group. Those Republicans who have | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
come out publicly against Donald Trump tends to be from the National | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
security and intelligence establishment. People who you would | :11:54. | :12:01. | |
expect to fall in love with -- in line behind the Republican nominee | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
would say that because of his stance on national security issues, | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
particularly Russia, we cannot support Donald Trump. I don't know | :12:10. | :12:13. | |
if that is a problem for Donald Trump at all. Maybe not. He is | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
certainly playing to his base and supporters when he says things like | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
this. But it is no sizzle -- noticeable that the war on real | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
slice of the Republican party not convinced with their candidate is | :12:26. | :12:33. | |
what it all in foreign policy. Whatever anyone's politics, it is | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
remarkable becoming the first woman to be a US presidential nominee. But | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
I would like to ask you about the fact that she has not picked up a | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
lot of support among young American women. Do you think yesterday's | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
moments might change that? I don't know if any one particular moment | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
can change that. I think it would be a combination what of Bill Clinton | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
said, which was pretty effective, situating her as a wife and other, | :13:02. | :13:06. | |
what Hillary Clinton herself says on Thursday and how she manages the | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
campaign. It will be a tough battle, President Obama has said that | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
Democrats can take this as an easy ride, it will be a close election. | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
The thing that Hillary Clinton will have to do is try to persuade those | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
younger women voters to get out to the poles, and to them in some more | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
personal ways. It will be interesting to see how Barack Obama | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
does that night and she does that tomorrow. Good to talk to you, Katty | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
Kay, live from Philadelphia. Barack Obama is speaking later in | :13:41. | :13:43. | |
Philadelphia at the Democratic convention. In a little while, I | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
will start to tell you about a new factory, not any old factory, the | :13:51. | :13:53. | |
biggest in the world is being built in Nevada. I will tell you who it is | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
being built by in a couple of minutes. | :13:59. | :14:00. | |
A group of MPs has suggested there could be a spike | :14:01. | :14:03. | |
in immigration to the UK, in the run up to Britain | :14:04. | :14:05. | |
-- has suggested a cut-off date as to when the EU nationals already | :14:06. | :14:15. | |
living in the UK would be allowed to stay. | :14:16. | :14:16. | |
Our home affairs correspondent Danny Shaw has more. | :14:17. | :14:18. | |
What they are saying is there needs to be | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
a clear cut-off date set, and after that, the new rules | :14:22. | :14:23. | |
Before it, you will have the existing rules, which allow | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
EU nationals to live and work freely in the UK. | :14:28. | :14:29. | |
The other situation they are concerned about is the lack | :14:30. | :14:31. | |
of certainty for EU citizens already in Britain. | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
If they have been here for five years or more, | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
they can stay permanently, it seems as though that will be | :14:38. | :14:39. | |
the situation even after Brexit, but they are still urging | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
the Government to say that, to guarantee that. | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
The Government are not going to enter into negotiations | :14:50. | :14:51. | |
committed to that, because they want the rights of Britons living | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
in other EU member states to be guaranteed as well. | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom. | :14:59. | :15:10. | |
Religious leaders in France have called for extra security at places | :15:11. | :15:23. | |
of worship after a priest was killed yesterday in an attack claimed by | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
the Islamic State group. Nvidia has emerged showing the attackers | :15:29. | :15:31. | |
pledging allegiance to the leader of IS. Some of the other stories from | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
BBC World Service... Scientists in Italy say | :15:35. | :15:36. | |
the crashed remains from the Malaysia Airlines Flight | :15:37. | :15:37. | |
MH370 could be 500 kilometres They based their assessment | :15:38. | :15:40. | |
on the location of debris The flight disappeared in March 2014 | :15:41. | :15:43. | |
en route from Kuala Lumpur BBC Chinese has that. | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
The European Space Agency has switched off radio links | :15:48. | :15:55. | |
to its Philae probe. In 2014, it made history when it | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
became the first man-made Switching it off conserves | :15:58. | :16:01. | |
energy on its mother ship, Anyhow, nothing's been heard | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
from Philae for more than a year. The man who tried to assassinate US | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
president Ronald Reagan will be released from a psychiatric hospital | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
next month after 35 years. John Hinckley Junior was found not | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
guilty by reason of insanity, but was sent to hospital | :16:20. | :16:22. | |
for treatment. Let's begin the business by talking | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
about the state of the UK economy. The UK's Chancellor of the Exchequer | :16:26. | :16:43. | |
has been talking to the BBC We're still waiting to really | :16:44. | :16:46. | |
understand the impact Brexit is going to have - | :16:47. | :16:49. | |
but we do know from results today that the UK had a better | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
than expected three months Here's Philip Hammond with the BBC's | :16:53. | :16:54. | |
economics editor Kamal Ahmed. Better figures than expected | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
today and an announcement by London City Airport | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
that it was expanding. For the Chancellor Philip Hammond, | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
not exactly blue skies ahead, The UK economy is fundamentally | :17:06. | :17:07. | |
strong as we go into the challenge That gives us the tools | :17:08. | :17:13. | |
and the scope to respond Do you really think, | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
as some have suggested, that we could be heading | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
for a recession? Well, I think it's far | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
too early to say how Inevitably, people's reaction | :17:28. | :17:29. | |
to a surprise is caution. No such caution today | :17:30. | :17:37. | |
from pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline, which announced | :17:38. | :17:39. | |
a ?270 million investment But the maker of Night Nurse | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
and Panadol did lace its good My guess is we are probably | :17:42. | :17:49. | |
going to see some choppy signals I don't think we are going to see | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
a dramatic shift to the left or the right, but we will see some | :17:55. | :17:59. | |
choppiness, we are going to see some things which are indicative | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
of a bit of a slowdown. And it's likely we are going to see | :18:04. | :18:05. | |
some signals of early inflation. With business investment | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
still continuing like here at London City Airport, | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
some might wonder what all the fuss was about the economy | :18:14. | :18:15. | |
in the referendum. I think there are two big | :18:16. | :18:19. | |
things worth considering. Firstly, we are still largely | :18:20. | :18:21. | |
looking in the rear-view mirror. Most of the economic | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
information published today is actually from April, | :18:26. | :18:28. | |
when business confidence And many senior economists I have | :18:29. | :18:29. | |
spoken to who are very close to the Government, | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
warn against a false Britain is still facing | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
uncertain times. Uncertainty has been an issue | :18:39. | :18:44. | |
for this leather company in Oxford which has found the post-Brexit | :18:45. | :18:47. | |
world a more difficult proposition. The weaker pound helps exporters | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
like GSK, it is not so good Everything that we buy | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
is in dollars from South America. This means there is an immediate | :18:55. | :19:00. | |
effect if the pound is very weak, so everything since the night | :19:01. | :19:03. | |
of Brexit is costing us 14% more. So this has an immediate | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
effect on our costs. Put simply, selling purses | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
becomes more difficult. And the figures post the referendum | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
do suggest business Well, the data suggests | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
that the economy was performing well What we have seen since the Brexit | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
vote is quite a significant slowdown in business sentiment, | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
in consumer sentiment, and this will have an impact | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
on the economy over Next week the Governor of the Bank | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
of England will announce his latest The Bank may even agree to cut | :19:36. | :19:43. | |
interest rates to boost growth, a move that will only come | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
if the economic news has indeed Yesterday it was Apple and Twitter - | :19:50. | :19:51. | |
today Facebook releases To the untrained eye, they look | :19:52. | :20:12. | |
pretty good. Reuters is reporting that its quarterly revenue jumped by | :20:13. | :20:18. | |
59.2%. Michelle Fleury in New York has been sifting through the | :20:19. | :20:23. | |
numbers. They sound pretty good? In a week dominated by technology | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
earnings, Facebook will be the one to beat. This company has reported a | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
profit that leapt 186% to $2 billion in the last three months compared to | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
one year ago, thanks to the fact that its number of users around the | :20:38. | :20:45. | |
world grew to 1.71 billion. Revenue also sharply higher, up 60% compared | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
to one year ago. All of this is based on the fact that it makes | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
money from advertising and it's very good at doing what it does, | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
particularly on mobile devices, and it is increasingly getting good at | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
selling advertising around video content. There are lots of social | :21:03. | :21:13. | |
media platforms, Twitter being one, with plenty of users that struggle | :21:14. | :21:15. | |
to turn it into revenue. What is Facebook doing differently? It is | :21:16. | :21:19. | |
very good at developing products that will appeal to advertisers. | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
Over the last few months, level of detail which to the average person | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
sounds very complicated, there is something called app install adds, | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
if you are a developer trying to get people like us, the audience, | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
downloading apps, and you want to make sure that people are not just | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
installing them but will use them, how do you target adverts are those | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
people? Facebook is developing technology that is that specific. | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
The other thing you see is brands using Instagram Facebook live to try | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
to start reaching customers. For example, over the summer a number of | :22:00. | :22:06. | |
fast food giants, one basically did a Facebook live event broadcasting | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
pancakes at the beach. I am not sure why you might want that, but these | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
are some of the things that have made it a standout. Perhaps the only | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
big company to rival it is Google, that reports tomorrow. Thank you, | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
Michelle Fleury. Let's switch from the east coast of the states to the | :22:28. | :22:29. | |
south-west. Tesla has given the BBC a sneak | :22:30. | :22:31. | |
preview of what it's This will be the biggest battery | :22:32. | :22:34. | |
plant in the world - and it's being built to meet demand | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
for the firm's cars It's near Reno in Nevada, | :22:39. | :22:40. | |
so right in the middle Our North America tech | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
reporter got the invite. They call Reno the biggest little | :22:45. | :22:54. | |
city in the world, but there is nothing little about its newest | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
neighbour. Tesla 's Gigafactory spans 3000 acres of the desert, | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
around 1000 construction workers are working seven days a week to finish | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
it. When Elon Musk published his latest master plan for what he wants | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
to do with Tesla, he said he was done doing just electric cars, now | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
he wants to do lorries, buses, any type of ground transportation. To | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
achieve that he needs to make a lot more batteries, which is what this | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
is for. The building as only a sixth of what it will eventually grow to. | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
By 2020, it will apparently be able to supply batteries for as many as | :23:32. | :23:37. | |
500,000 Tesla cars each year. Much of the factory is still top | :23:38. | :23:40. | |
secret, we were only allowed to film in a small handful of places. But | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
they wanted to show the world that they are raring to go. Bosses say | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
the factory is around two years ahead of schedule, which is good | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
because Tesla is in a rush. The company has not yet made any money, | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
bass Elon Musk is under a lot of pressure from investors to set that | :23:58. | :24:02. | |
right. Welcome to Gigafactory, I believe we are on track to meet the | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
happy ending in 2018. Long-term, it'll make sense to have a | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
Gigafactory in Europe and in China, probably one in India. Elon Musk | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
also has to answer troubling safety concerns about his cars. Last month | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
it was revealed that the autopilot function, which essentially drives | :24:25. | :24:28. | |
the car for you on a motorway, was being investigated to see if it was | :24:29. | :24:32. | |
responsible for the death of a driver. Do you have any regrets | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
about how you rolled out the autopilot in cars? I think we did | :24:40. | :24:49. | |
the right thing. We improved safety. Not just in fatalities but injuries. | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
It is partly the enthusiasm and vision of Elon Musk which keeps | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
investors interested. The success of this colossal project will make or | :25:01. | :25:10. | |
break him. Just before we wrap up, let's bring in the live feed from | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
Philadelphia, one of the speakers is on stage. We had Michelle Obama on | :25:15. | :25:21. | |
Monday, on Tuesday night we had Bill Clinton, tomorrow it will be the | :25:22. | :25:24. | |
turn of Hillary Clinton to bring the whole thing together, and this | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
evening we will have President Barack Obama. This is significant, | :25:29. | :25:33. | |
because a great many commentators imagine that Clinton will not try to | :25:34. | :25:37. | |
do this on her own, she will try to pull the support of political big | :25:38. | :25:41. | |
guns like Bill Clinton and the Obamas as she tries to defeat Donald | :25:42. | :25:48. | |
Trump. Of course, all of these major speeches, you will hear on BBC News | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
television. I will speak to you and a couple of | :25:52. | :25:57. | |
minutes. -- in a couple of minutes. | :25:58. | :25:59. |
