Welcome back. These are some of the main stories we are covering. There

:00:16.:00:26.

have been huge anti-and pro-government demonstrations in

:00:27.:00:29.

Venezuela. People have taken to the street because they want President

:00:30.:00:37.

Nicolas Maduro removed. Donald Trump is in Ohio. This trip really matters

:00:38.:00:44.

for his prospects. We have talked a lot about him in a lot of months. We

:00:45.:00:56.

haven't spoken about Gabon in Africa, violence there because of a

:00:57.:01:00.

very tight election result. And in the sport we will talk about Franz

:01:01.:01:05.

Beckenbauer, Felipe Massa and the draw of the women's Champions

:01:06.:01:06.

League. Let's consider what is happening in

:01:07.:01:28.

South America because there was a time when Brazil and Venezuela were

:01:29.:01:33.

held as examples of how left-wing movements could take power and keep

:01:34.:01:36.

it. The supporters said this was politics done differently. This week

:01:37.:01:42.

has brought more evidence that in the end politics of whatever type

:01:43.:01:48.

normally ends in defeat or at least unpopularity. In Venezuela, huge

:01:49.:01:52.

anti-government protests designed to try to drive President Nicholas

:01:53.:01:58.

Maduro from power. He is the successor of Hugo Chavez. Lots of

:01:59.:02:04.

people want the left-wing movement out of power. Yesterday her story

:02:05.:02:17.

was Dilma Rousseff being removed from power. When the 14 years of the

:02:18.:02:32.

workers party ruling began, da Silva was in charge. In Argentina, last

:02:33.:02:42.

September, the president lost power and then Argentina had its first

:02:43.:02:48.

non-left government in decades. For context, Uruguay, Chile, Bolivia and

:02:49.:02:52.

Ecuador all still have leftist governments, and Venezuela does,

:02:53.:02:57.

too, if only for the moment. Let's go live to Sao Paulo. The first

:02:58.:03:04.

thing I want to talk to you about is can we make broad conclusions about

:03:05.:03:07.

the state of leftist politics in South America or is what is

:03:08.:03:13.

happening in Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela specific to those

:03:14.:03:18.

countries? At the moment it seems quite specific to each country

:03:19.:03:23.

because the only places where non-leftist regimes are right-wing

:03:24.:03:26.

regimes have managed to win elections was in Argentina and Peru

:03:27.:03:33.

because what happened in Brazil and Venezuela has a lot to do with a

:03:34.:03:38.

very fast slide in economic terms so the alternative to left-wing

:03:39.:03:44.

governments haven't won the hearts and minds of people yet. In Brazil

:03:45.:03:52.

and Venezuela it has a lot to do with the rapid cure a of the

:03:53.:03:56.

economy, slides in commodities, things like oil, general commodities

:03:57.:04:03.

that run these economies. How do we judge, and we have had long enough

:04:04.:04:09.

now that we can, achievements of left-wing projects in Venezuela and

:04:10.:04:13.

Brazil and others, because they set out to take the wealth of their

:04:14.:04:16.

countries and more freely redistribute that wealth will stop

:04:17.:04:20.

can we say that has happened effectively in Venezuela or Rizal?

:04:21.:04:28.

-- Brazil. Some countries in the past like Brazil, Argentina and

:04:29.:04:34.

Venezuela, when they went through the past ten years from 2003 up

:04:35.:04:43.

until 2008, 2012, those left-wing regimes managed to use a lot of the

:04:44.:04:48.

money, the wealth of the country to redistribute it to their population.

:04:49.:04:55.

In Argentina, it was an important time that the left-wing government

:04:56.:04:58.

had in power to fix many of the problems there. A tough time in the

:04:59.:05:04.

90s. They were quite successful during those days. Since 2012, with

:05:05.:05:09.

the slide of the commodities boom, pretty much every country, right and

:05:10.:05:14.

left-wing regimes have been affected by the slide in prices. All

:05:15.:05:20.

economies are hurting and no one seems to have found a eyesore

:05:21.:05:23.

targeted to bring these countries back to growth. As with any

:05:24.:05:30.

successful political movements, they have charismatic leaders. Can you

:05:31.:05:33.

believe how little political impact Lula da Silva has now compared to a

:05:34.:05:45.

few years ago? The case of Lula da Silva is a bit more emotional here

:05:46.:05:51.

in Brazil because he was held as one of the most popular presidents for a

:05:52.:05:55.

long time and now he has fallen from grace from the legacy he left but

:05:56.:06:01.

there are also corruption allegations being investigated. The

:06:02.:06:02.

same thing with de Kirchner. We try to bring

:06:03.:06:32.

you the best coverage of international stories. In a moment I

:06:33.:06:38.

will speak to Nick Bryant in Ohio. And then our correspondent in Paris.

:06:39.:06:46.

We will turn to the west coast of Africa and Gabon. Gunfire in the

:06:47.:06:51.

capital. This is the latest escalation in violence since the

:06:52.:06:55.

election result was revealed. That is when the trouble began. Here it

:06:56.:07:02.

is on the map. It is usually one of the more stable countries in this

:07:03.:07:07.

part of the continent. The incumbent president is this man. In power

:07:08.:07:21.

since 2009. Most of the clashes have been in the capital. There have been

:07:22.:07:32.

protests since the result was announced. Reports of gunfire

:07:33.:07:35.

overnight and protesters setting fire to the parliament building. The

:07:36.:07:41.

authorities are saying that 1000 people have been arrested. The

:07:42.:07:47.

reason that this has proven so controversial is that Ali Bongo won

:07:48.:07:53.

the election by less than 6000 votes. Here is what he said after

:07:54.:07:58.

the result was announced. TRANSLATION: Today the election is

:07:59.:08:02.

over and the time has come to get together and build together and you

:08:03.:08:10.

all wounds. The time has come to life behind themselves of their

:08:11.:08:13.

campaign, the time for appeasement and reconciliation has come. You can

:08:14.:08:18.

count on me to be the president of all the people in Gabon. The man he

:08:19.:08:26.

beat was this man. He wants each region of the country to publish

:08:27.:08:31.

their vote tally and work out what happened. He spoke to the BBC. Here

:08:32.:08:39.

is some of that interview. The situation in the capital at the

:08:40.:08:43.

moment is very bad because the presidential guard last night by

:08:44.:08:48.

helicopter attacked our headquarters. They arrested almost

:08:49.:08:58.

everybody. Do you agree that you are partly to blame for the violence at

:08:59.:09:04.

the moment because you declared yourself the winner even before the

:09:05.:09:07.

electro commission did? LAUGHTER

:09:08.:09:14.

Do you think you should not declare when you are a winner? If you go to

:09:15.:09:23.

the Africa page of the BBC News website, that story and although

:09:24.:09:26.

main stories from the continent are updated every day.

:09:27.:09:34.

Let's talk about the draw for the women's' Champions League. Chelsea

:09:35.:09:51.

will play Wolfsburg. It is not the same as the men's Champions League.

:09:52.:10:01.

It starts with 32 clubs and it is a home and away straight knockout. It

:10:02.:10:07.

is not the group stage. The team to beat...

:10:08.:10:08.

The team to beat will be holders Lyon.

:10:09.:10:10.

They start their defence against Norway's Avaldsnes.

:10:11.:10:12.

One of the most intriguing ties sees runners-up from last season,

:10:13.:10:14.

German side Wolfsburg, play the team they beat

:10:15.:10:16.

Wolfsburg only lost that final on penalties, Chelsea

:10:17.:10:20.

are the reigning champions in England so a strong side

:10:21.:10:23.

Manchester City, they're in this competition for the first time

:10:24.:10:34.

Bayern Munich will be away first to Hibernian.

:10:35.:10:37.

The other Scottish representatives, Glasgow City, face

:10:38.:10:39.

Those ties will be played in October.

:10:40.:10:52.

Uefa is giving the tournament are big push. How does the popularity

:10:53.:10:56.

can pair with the men's? Well, this is its eighth season

:10:57.:11:01.

under the Champions League banner and that's certainly helped give it

:11:02.:11:03.

some prestige and brought it in line The women's game is growing rapidly

:11:04.:11:07.

and that's had a really positive impact on the standard

:11:08.:11:12.

of compeition. French and German sides have

:11:13.:11:13.

contested the last two finals - Lyon winning it for the third time

:11:14.:11:21.

last season, so they're Swedish teams have done well

:11:22.:11:23.

and English clubs are certainly now Many of the top sides -

:11:24.:11:32.

Lyon, PSG, Wolfsburg, Chelsea and Manchester City -

:11:33.:11:37.

they're all affiliated to established men's clubs too

:11:38.:11:39.

so infrastructure has also been The final, by the way,

:11:40.:11:41.

will be in Cardiff in June. Let's stay with football because

:11:42.:12:06.

Franz Beckenbauer, a legend of the game, is being investigated as part

:12:07.:12:11.

of the World Cup bribery scandal. Here are some pictures of him along

:12:12.:12:17.

with the former president of Fifa Sepp Blatter. It relates to

:12:18.:12:22.

Germany's winning bid for the 2006 World Cup. Swiss prosecutors say

:12:23.:12:25.

they will investigate alleged bribery and a regular payments. Mr

:12:26.:12:32.

Beckenbauer has always denied any wrongdoing. Last October he said

:12:33.:12:35.

explicitly he did not give money to anyone in order to buy votes. Felipe

:12:36.:12:42.

Massa is going to retire at the end of the season. It's hard to remember

:12:43.:12:46.

when he was not racing. He has won elephant Grand Prix and he is

:12:47.:12:53.

perhaps most famous for what he almost won. In 2008 he was one lap

:12:54.:12:59.

away from world champion, last race of the season, he won the race but

:13:00.:13:04.

the car in front of Lewis Hamilton slowed, he jumped a place and got

:13:05.:13:09.

the point they needed to win, winning the World Championship by a

:13:10.:13:12.

point. Here is Felipe Massa reflecting on his decision. After 27

:13:13.:13:22.

years of my career, since I started in a go-kart at eight years old, 15

:13:23.:13:28.

years in Formula 1, so this will be my last season in Formula 1. It will

:13:29.:13:38.

be my last eight races in Formula 1 that I will really enjoy. Let's talk

:13:39.:13:46.

about Donald Trump. Yesterday he was in Mexico and Arizona and today he

:13:47.:13:51.

has gone to Ohio. He plans to spend a lot of time there. It is a swing

:13:52.:13:58.

state and important to Republicans. No Republican has won the presidency

:13:59.:14:04.

without winning a high first. Let's bring in Nick Bryant from

:14:05.:14:10.

Washington, DC. You have to focus on Ohio to win it. What policies to

:14:11.:14:15.

people there make their decisions on? A problem he has a higher or is

:14:16.:14:25.

that a Republican governor is refusing to endorse Trump. John

:14:26.:14:39.

Kasich. Heil went for Nixon in 1960, JFK won. Since 1944 they have only

:14:40.:14:44.

got it wrong ones. It is the bellwether state and Donald Trump

:14:45.:14:48.

has been trailing in the polls. A lot of the distressed steel towns,

:14:49.:14:53.

with white working-class voters, they are backing Donald Trump but a

:14:54.:14:59.

lot of the more highly educated and prospered is why people are not

:15:00.:15:05.

backing him. He has a huge problem attracting the support of fellow

:15:06.:15:12.

Republicans. No Republican has ever won the White House without winning

:15:13.:15:19.

the Buckeye State. In this speech he gave in Mexico it was a little odd,

:15:20.:15:27.

sticking to his script, speaking calmly and slowly, not the Donald

:15:28.:15:30.

Trump we have seen. Will we be back to the one we know better today?

:15:31.:15:36.

Yesterday we saw him almost unrecognisable from what we have

:15:37.:15:40.

seen on the campaign trail, even from the moment he flew in, the

:15:41.:15:46.

aeroplane was all white, it did not have his name on the side. He

:15:47.:15:51.

appeared next to the Mexican president, very humble, almost like

:15:52.:15:55.

he was speaking at a funeral. Then he flew to Arizona for an eagerly

:15:56.:16:03.

anticipation... Anticipated speech on immigration and he was back to

:16:04.:16:07.

the old Trump. People were shouting build a wall. Many people thought

:16:08.:16:13.

his Mexico speech would signal a softening of his line on immigration

:16:14.:16:21.

but we did not see that at all. Some of his staunch bikers, and Coulter

:16:22.:16:27.

for example, a famous right-wing commentator, she said it was the

:16:28.:16:30.

finest speech she had ever heard in her life. Moderate Republicans took

:16:31.:16:36.

a different view and so did some of Donald Trump's Latina surrogates.

:16:37.:16:41.

Some considered withdrawing their support. We will leave it there. To

:16:42.:16:54.

see the full report, look on the BBC website. In a few minutes, we will

:16:55.:17:01.

go to a story about kids going back to school in France, greeted by a

:17:02.:17:05.

whole range of new security measures in response to the terror attacks

:17:06.:17:10.

there. We will tell you more about what they're going to experience.

:17:11.:17:22.

Police have named the ten-year-old by Anders parents who were killed by

:17:23.:17:33.

a car being chased by police. It was a summer's afternoon but not

:17:34.:17:38.

always best spent in the park, and that's where they were heading

:17:39.:17:42.

when this happened. Makayah McDermott died,

:17:43.:17:48.

crushed by the car, like all the children he was a talented

:17:49.:17:57.

actor, auditioned for a TV series and his aunt Rosanne

:17:58.:18:00.

Cooper was also killed. Her daughter and Makayah's sisters

:18:01.:18:02.

are being treated in The car that hit them had been

:18:03.:18:04.

reported stolen shortly before and pursued by police

:18:05.:18:08.

three South London. -- and pursued by police

:18:09.:18:10.

through South London. After the crash the driver fled only

:18:11.:18:18.

to be cornered by officers Flowers arrived this afternoon,

:18:19.:18:21.

accompanied by memories I don't know Rosie massively

:18:22.:18:24.

well but the one thing I do know about her is

:18:25.:18:27.

she never had a bad word She was the kindest,

:18:28.:18:30.

friendliest, warmest person. When something like this happens

:18:31.:18:33.

there is always an independent inquiry

:18:34.:18:36.

to consider the fast-moving be made when someone fails

:18:37.:18:38.

to stop for the police. Alan Kitchener is an ex-police

:18:39.:18:47.

officer, now driving instructor, who has been

:18:48.:18:50.

at the wheel and at the control Is a constant management of the risk

:18:51.:18:53.

because things change To help controllers

:18:54.:18:57.

decide whether to continue, officers in the car are

:18:58.:19:04.

taught to commentate on those risks The pedestrian who might step out

:19:05.:19:07.

and might not see us coming and then the bend

:19:08.:19:11.

on the road and it dips down, junction to the

:19:12.:19:14.

right. It's impressive the amount of detail

:19:15.:19:21.

but this is a typical place If you didn't pursue

:19:22.:19:24.

in the sort of place that is more risky you'd

:19:25.:19:28.

never catch anyone. Many pursuits are called off,

:19:29.:19:29.

I've called off lots in my career because the risk outweighs

:19:30.:19:32.

the benefit of catching the Investigators are now examining

:19:33.:19:35.

video footage from the police car involved

:19:36.:19:39.

and its built-in data recorder. Arab League story is from Venezuela

:19:40.:20:04.

where a huge opposition demonstrations taking place, a

:20:05.:20:08.

response to the serious economic crisis in Venezuela and protesters

:20:09.:20:16.

want the president to go. It is back to school today for children in

:20:17.:20:23.

France. They are finding things have changed. The terrorist attacks of

:20:24.:20:28.

the past few months have meant posters like these have met them.

:20:29.:20:34.

They are informed of May bag searches, security cameras, people

:20:35.:20:38.

will have to wear ID on their clothes, students will be taught how

:20:39.:20:42.

to hide, how to escape and how to help each other. There will be three

:20:43.:20:49.

drills per year, including one which will simulate a terror attack. This

:20:50.:20:54.

is a response in part to the Paris attacks last year in November, more

:20:55.:20:59.

recently when 86 people lost their life in the truck attack and eight

:21:00.:21:05.

priest was murdered. You can imagine how many people are uncomfortable

:21:06.:21:13.

with the idea of their children having to participate in drills to

:21:14.:21:18.

simulate terror attacks. The president has justified it by saying

:21:19.:21:24.

the circumstances justify the measures taken. There is no specific

:21:25.:21:45.

threat, just a general awareness. Schools are in the eyes of many

:21:46.:21:54.

jihadists a legitimate target. 3000 reserve lists on patrol outside

:21:55.:22:00.

schools, not all can have a squad outside, the patrols are randomly

:22:01.:22:05.

allocated to act as a deterrent. There is new money for security at

:22:06.:22:09.

entrances to schools and there are guidelines. Every school this term

:22:10.:22:15.

has to have a simulation exercise, simulating not a fire or natural

:22:16.:22:21.

disaster but a terrorist incursion. That is because the response of the

:22:22.:22:25.

children must be different. In a terrorist incursion you escape if

:22:26.:22:30.

you can but if not you stick together and stay quiet. Even

:22:31.:22:35.

kindergarten children will have this exercise and they will learn through

:22:36.:22:41.

a game about silence and the idea is that these tiny children who would

:22:42.:22:48.

have no idea what was going on in a real terrorist incursion, they learn

:22:49.:22:53.

to stay quiet as long as possible for their own safety.

:22:54.:22:57.

British politicians are back from summer holidays and so Brexit is

:22:58.:23:02.

centre stage again. Yesterday Theresa May held a cabinet in which

:23:03.:23:06.

she challenged colleagues to seize the opportunities presented by

:23:07.:23:10.

Brexit. A related story today, the value of the pound has jumped after

:23:11.:23:14.

a survey indicated the UK's manufacturing sector at rebounded

:23:15.:23:20.

sharply in August. Inevitably, the wait for details on the nature of

:23:21.:23:24.

Brexit has created some uncertainty and in the short term that could be

:23:25.:23:28.

difficult for businesses. This report looks at uncertainty and the

:23:29.:23:34.

experience of a British couple working in France.

:23:35.:23:40.

This is a taste of home from home. This British couple drive there are

:23:41.:23:49.

fish and chips than all along the Dordogne river. We are kind of

:23:50.:23:53.

benefiting at the moment because if we need to send euros back to

:23:54.:23:59.

England then the exchange rate is working for us. This is like feeding

:24:00.:24:05.

the 5000! I am a hairdresser and I work mainly for the British people,

:24:06.:24:10.

mostly they are retired and a few of those people are fairly worried

:24:11.:24:13.

about the future here, with their pension and health care. Perhaps

:24:14.:24:18.

they might look to go back in future, so that leaves my business a

:24:19.:24:27.

bit wary. A lot of the opportunities will not be there that would have

:24:28.:24:31.

been prior to Brexit. My eldest daughter is studying law. If we are

:24:32.:24:37.

studying European law and coming out of the EU, you feel you are wasting

:24:38.:24:43.

your time and also wasting money learning something that might not be

:24:44.:24:49.

relevant in a few years. That is it for Outside Source. You can get more

:24:50.:24:55.

on the BBC new app -- BBC News app. We will get onto the weather here in

:24:56.:25:01.
