Plus catty cake will be Eli from Washington. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
Have you heard about the presidential candidate | :00:10. | :00:10. | |
who didn't know where Aleppo was when asked on live TV? | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
And no, it wasn't Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton. | :00:14. | :00:35. | |
At Outside Source we use our touch screen to access all the information | :00:36. | :00:43. | |
coming into the BBC newsroom. A range of maps and background help us | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
explain the stories we are covering. The World Bank has | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
issued a stark warning They say one in ten | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
deaths worldwide can be And they put the cost | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
to the world economy The report says "Air pollution | :00:59. | :01:05. | |
is a challenge that threatens basic human welfare, | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
and constrains economic growth". Here's one of the report authors | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
explaining the study. We are saying that governments are | :01:18. | :01:28. | |
starting to act but we want them to top investment in favour of cleaner | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
air. We want to make this a priority. Air pollution affects the | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
elderly and children more, and by causing premature deaths among | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
working age men and women it is leading to loss of labour income and | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
costing the world economy 225 alien dollars in 2013, and in the south | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
Asian region that is almost equivalent to 1% of GDP, but if you | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
look at the impact across all age groups, not just the working age, | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
and through welfare index, which is used to evaluate policies, the costs | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
are even bigger, five point $1 trillion. | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
Governments monitor the risk of air pollution using | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
Bear in mind anything over 50 is consider unsafe. | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
Here in London it's a nice clear day and the index is showing 51. | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
Robin Brant is in Shanghai where air pollution | :02:31. | :02:43. | |
Welcome to the most populous city in the most populous country in the | :02:44. | :02:59. | |
world, Shanghai, about 24 million people live here and there is a | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
pollution problem. It's partly down to this, the early evening rush-hour | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
traffic. People are buying and companies are selling more cars in | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
this country but the leak -- the pollution problem is mainly down to | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
industries that have fuelled the economic boom, coal, steel, iron and | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
cement, and what is China trying to do about this? It's trying to | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
reverse the effects. President Xi Jinping was talking about how | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
forests and clean running water work more valuable than mountains of | :03:39. | :03:47. | |
gold. He made environmental protection and key policy, trying to | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
shut steel mills and coal mines but that takes time. The economy there | :03:51. | :03:58. | |
is growing but slowing, and the leadership wants economic growth to | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
continue but to be sustainable, and Chinese people want a cleaner place | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
to live in but here is one statistic. Carbon omissions in this | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
country will not teach, that is stop growing, for another 14 years, which | :04:14. | :04:21. | |
shows the scale of the problem here. Let's move from China to Greece. | :04:22. | :04:23. | |
Almost six months ago we were reporting on a deal | :04:24. | :04:25. | |
between the EU and Turkey that was designed to reduce | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
the number of migrants arriving on the Greek islands. | :04:29. | :04:30. | |
Numbers fell dramatically but Greece is still struggling. | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
60,000 people remain there - either waiting to be | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
moved back to Turkey, or onto elsewhere in the EU. | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
Damian Grammaticas is on the Greek island of Chios. | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
He's looking at the pressures coming to bear. | :04:53. | :05:01. | |
The tourists are here, indulging, enjoying | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
But in the background, the refugees linger, trapped as | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
Out at sea, the boats have slowed, Greek | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
Europe's deal with Turkey is having an effect. | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
Turkish patrols are deterring more crossings. | :05:25. | :05:35. | |
Arrivals now around 100 a day, not in the thousands. | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
So it is here on land where the crisis has shifted. | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
This man arrived from Homs in Syria two months ago. | :05:46. | :05:53. | |
We slept in the Garden about 20 days and no one cared about us. | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
He is now stuck in a temporary shelter hoping for | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
refugee status but with no end to the process insight. | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
There are people here for six months and they are still waiting. | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
For me, I am two months so maybe we will wait two | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
Adding to their frustration, the refugees cannot work. | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
They are reliant on hand-outs and it is | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
charities and not the EU that is feeding them. | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
For this lady, a Syrian Kurd, it is demoralising and | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
degrading and not what they expected in Europe. | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
TRANSLATION: We escaped war, death, how can they reject us? | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
We are in Europe, which always talks about | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
Right in the heart of Chios the refugees have made their own | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
shanty and islanders believe the EU is deliberately slowing the asylum | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
The EU would like to minimise the flow so they leave | :06:58. | :07:06. | |
the procedure to take months for the refugees. | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
The EU's policies have to an extent secured European borders | :07:11. | :07:13. | |
here for now, limiting the influx but they have left Greece and the | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
refugees already here in limbo, unclear when | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
And there is more reporting and background information on the | :07:23. | :07:36. | |
migrant crisis online. The Paralympics are under way - | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
this is day one of 11 - and there 38 gold medals | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
up for grabs. Sports like shooting, | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
athletics and judo. China has taken an early lead - | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
they top the table with two golds Julia, you are at the seven aside | :07:55. | :08:23. | |
that all. Yes, I am here at the stadium where the football matches | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
have been having since this morning, first GB against Brazil, Brazil one, | :08:29. | :08:36. | |
now Iran and Argentina. That sport is conducted by seven athletes on | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
each side and the field and cool our a bit smaller than the Olympic | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
football pitch and the athletes to take part have cerebral palsy or | :08:49. | :08:56. | |
acquired brain injury, but we were watching the matches, there was lots | :08:57. | :09:02. | |
of enthusiasm and some high level football being played on the field, | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
so lots of excitement here in an area were also the shooting | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
competitions are taking place and the equestrian competitions. And | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
some of the gold medals have been one. Pick out a few of the key event | :09:17. | :09:25. | |
so far. The first round of medals today was that the athletic Stadium, | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
the 5000 metres race in the T11 category, for blind athletes, and | :09:33. | :09:44. | |
that was where Brazil got its first medal, for an man who last year was | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
leading the World Championship race by a mile and at the last lap he | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
collapsed of exhaustion and was overcome by the other sprinters, so | :09:54. | :10:01. | |
he didn't get any medals, but now he got a silver and gold went to Kenya. | :10:02. | :10:09. | |
There was also a first gold medal for the Paralympics GB team. Megan | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
Giglia got the first gold medal in the C one to three category in | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
cycling at the velodrome for that 3000 metres individual pursuit, and | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
while she has just started cycling three years ago, she has already set | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
her first world record earlier today before snatching that God, and while | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
we will see more results coming later today from the swimming pool, | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
wheelchair basketball, and in this woman pools there is one more | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
highlight, Holland's Chantelle the felt. She is only 15 but has already | :10:49. | :10:57. | |
the world and European champion and later if she gets the gold in the | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
breaststroke she will become the first Paralympic champion born in | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
the 21st-century, so how is that for making us feel a little bit older? | :11:08. | :11:15. | |
Thank you, Julia. Also I am keeping an eye on that BBC sport at an Dame | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
Sarah Storey will go in the individual pursuit final. By Mark | :11:22. | :11:30. | |
calculation is it is right now. If she gets it she will pick up the | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
12th Paralympic gold medal so we will bring you that soon. In the | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
meantime, let's talk about the Palace of Westminster. | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
Inside it are both houses of Parliament. | :11:45. | :11:46. | |
So urgent that MPs may have to move out for six years. | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
Some parts of the exterior are crumbling. | :11:52. | :12:03. | |
Two Courtyards are becoming overgrown. | :12:04. | :12:06. | |
Inside there's a labyrinth of tunnels and wires. | :12:07. | :12:07. | |
There's a great quote from a former senior House of Commons official. | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
He says, "I don't think I'm giving away any secrets by saying | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
there are lots of wires, nobody is quite sure where they go." | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
So that needs to be cleared up as well. | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
Estimated to cost around ?4 billion - | :12:24. | :12:38. | |
I wanted to know more about the state of the place - | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
and one man who knows a lot about it is our UK political | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
The structure of the building has a bit of wear and tear but you would | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
expect that as it was put up in the 1830s. If you go into some of the | :12:56. | :13:05. | |
toilets, there is a smell that has something to do with the plumbing | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
from our Victorian forebears. I would not recommend it. There is a | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
certain with which would be powerful. And reasonably things like | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
phones and computer connections need to be rewired. This building was set | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
up to be an imposing Victorian Gothic palace in the 1830s in the | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
day before the internet, can you imagine the place last had a major | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
overhaul in the 1940s. No e-mail, no nothing. So where will the MPs go? | :13:42. | :13:52. | |
I'm not sure they will. Find a space for them down there, maybe? There | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
will only be 600 of them in the future. The plan put forward has | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
been to get out for about six years to nearby buildings, the alternative | :14:05. | :14:10. | |
was there are less keen on is for the work to go on around them, which | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
would be doubled the cost and wouldn't be finished until about | :14:15. | :14:22. | |
2060. We will be dead by then. Politicians aren't massively popular | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
at the moment, will the public back this money for this hugely popular | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
building? I suspect they will but there have been some fun suggestions | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
what they do with the MPs, my favourite is to put them on a cruise | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
ship to go around the coast of the UK doing little appearances. You can | :14:43. | :14:48. | |
imagine them popping into ports around the UK. The Telegraph is | :14:49. | :14:54. | |
saying repairer parliament if we must never make it less angry and | :14:55. | :15:02. | |
less moved -- less rude. I want to bring this up now because an | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
important story coming in from France, said French Interior | :15:09. | :15:11. | |
Minister saying the woman had been arrested near Paris, they were | :15:12. | :15:17. | |
likely planning an imminent attack. One policeman has been injured | :15:18. | :15:20. | |
during the operation and this was connected to an arrest we reported | :15:21. | :15:27. | |
yesterday about two people picked up by the authorities in connection | :15:28. | :15:31. | |
with gas canisters around in Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris on Saturday. | :15:32. | :15:39. | |
Yesterday two people were picked up, we no one of those was on a list of | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
people being watched for being radicalised, now this. The woman | :15:44. | :15:50. | |
arrested, one police officer injured and the French Interior Minister | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
saying they looked like they were intent on carrying out an attack. If | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
we get more information we will show it to you. | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
In a little while I will send you this. It is from the BBC pop-up | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
team. They're in Russia at the moment, | :16:12. | :16:12. | |
and they've been to southern Siberia to meet people | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
from the Altai community. Education Secretary | :16:16. | :16:23. | |
Justine Greening told MPs that the government is not ruling | :16:24. | :16:24. | |
out lifting a ban on building The announcement was met by harsh | :16:25. | :16:27. | |
criticism from her The landscape for schools has | :16:28. | :16:45. | |
changed hugely, we now have a huge variety of educational offers. There | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
will be no return to the binary choice of the past where schools | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
separate children into winners or losers. This government wants to | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
focus on the future. This policy will not help social mobility that | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
will entrench inequality and disadvantage. It will be the lucky | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
few who can't afford tuition who will get ahead and the disadvantaged | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
will be left behind, a policy for the few at the expense of the many. | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom. | :17:24. | :17:36. | |
Our lead story concerns air poluution. | :17:37. | :17:45. | |
deaths worldwide are caused by air pollution - that is six | :17:46. | :17:49. | |
times more than malaria, and nearly as many deaths as those | :17:50. | :17:52. | |
Israel has begun building a massive underground barrier that | :17:53. | :17:59. | |
will eventually stretch all along its border with Gaza. | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
It's designed to prevent Palestinian militants digging | :18:03. | :18:03. | |
Air China has apologised for an article in its inflight | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
magazine which warned visitors to London to be careful in areas | :18:09. | :18:11. | |
mainly populated by Indians, Pakistanis and black people. | :18:12. | :18:13. | |
It's removed all copies of the magazine from its planes. | :18:14. | :18:15. | |
This is a British man, Kevin Scott breaking the world speed | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
record for a monowheel motorcycle - he reaches 98 km an hour. | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
Not that I've ridden a monowheel, but I feel that record | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
American company Liberty Media says it has bought Formula One | :18:28. | :18:46. | |
And guess who's going to the boss of F1. | :18:47. | :18:49. | |
Bernie Ecclestone's been in charge for 40 years - | :18:50. | :18:52. | |
They have somebody who knows what they're doing, for a change. | :18:53. | :19:01. | |
The US is a big opportunity long-term | :19:02. | :19:09. | |
but this is a great global sport and one | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
we will continue to build on the things Bernie has built, so | :19:15. | :19:22. | |
This is a great sport with great brands and stars, | :19:23. | :19:25. | |
we want to make it everything it can be and work with early to make it | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
is buying the software business of a division of Hewlett-Packard | :19:30. | :19:40. | |
A string of acquisitions has turned Micro Focus, from a relatively small | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
player to now being worth around ten billion dollars. | :19:45. | :19:54. | |
Let's bring in Michelle live from New York. This is partly about Micro | :19:55. | :20:03. | |
Focus's expansion but also the contraction of an iconic corporation | :20:04. | :20:07. | |
in America. Hewlett-Packard is one of the oldest names in Silicon | :20:08. | :20:13. | |
Valley, it was started in a garage by the two founders but since then | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
sales of the traditional PC have declined, the company has gone | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
through various leaders, it has put itself into an enterprise business | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
and a hardware business, the bit sold to date came from the | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
enterprise side of the company but it's a huge come-down for a company | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
that is one of the oldest names in Silicon Valley and it isn't chat | :20:41. | :20:45. | |
contrast to this British firm, a relatively small player, suddenly | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
growing in size and some people are saying on the UK site it is a good | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
signpost for Brexit, the kind of business and technology in the UK. I | :20:59. | :21:03. | |
will just pull up a tweet from the East Seattle Times which is done an | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
investigation into LinkedIn. Talk us through this. They did a report and | :21:11. | :21:20. | |
found searches for female names such as Stefanie would actually bring up | :21:21. | :21:24. | |
a male name like Stephen. The company has denied this and said | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
there isn't a case of pious and it has updated its algorithm to avoid | :21:32. | :21:37. | |
that happening again. They say it wasn't intentional and there was no | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
bias. It raises a question about algorithms. They are written by | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
humans so bias can be inadvertently written into it. If you look at | :21:48. | :21:54. | |
Facebook, they got into trouble over their trending side of their site, | :21:55. | :21:59. | |
the way they dealt with it was to replace people with algorithms but | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
as we have seen here, that is not always the best answer. | :22:04. | :22:15. | |
More on the Micro Focus story on the BBC website. Now, that report from | :22:16. | :22:33. | |
the ABC pop-up team, which is reporting from a community in | :22:34. | :22:34. | |
Siberia. And I can quickly tell you that | :22:35. | :25:12. | |
Sarah Storey has won her 12th Paralympic gold in the last few | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
minutes. We will get more of that in the next half of Outside Source. | :25:18. | :25:27. | |
It's time for our round-up of the world weather conditions and we will | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
start with North America. This aid lump of cloud is the remnants of | :25:33. | :25:35. | |
hurricane Newton, | :25:36. | :25:37. |
