:00:12. > :00:20.Hello, this is Outside Source. Our lead story concerns the situation
:00:21. > :00:23.with Hurricane Matthew, the southern United States being prepared for the
:00:24. > :00:26.storm to arrive. In Haiti, rescue work is still going on and the
:00:27. > :00:30.rescue workers are struggling to reach areas that have been
:00:31. > :00:35.devastated. The death toll is already passed 100.
:00:36. > :00:42.The battle to become the next leader of Ukip has taken a serious turn.
:00:43. > :00:47.been taken to hospital in Strasbourg been taken to hospital in Strasbourg
:00:48. > :00:51.after an altercation at a party meeting. In a minute I will play the
:00:52. > :00:56.latest report from the BBC's sports editor who has been speaking to a
:00:57. > :01:04.former member of Team Sky. As you are watching, if you want to get in
:01:05. > :01:20.touch, do so by e-mailing. These are all of my contacts.
:01:21. > :01:27.Let's turn to this UK politics stories that is as strange as it is
:01:28. > :01:33.serious. Steven Woolfe, a senior figure in Ukip, is currently
:01:34. > :01:37.recovering in hospital after collapsing after what has been
:01:38. > :01:42.described as an altercation with a Ukip colleague at the European
:01:43. > :01:46.Parliament in Strasbourg. He has tweeted from hospital saying thank
:01:47. > :01:51.you very much to Parliamentary staff, to Ukip's MEPs, members of
:01:52. > :01:57.the European Parliament, and the hospital staff for their care and
:01:58. > :02:00.love. Nigel Farage is the interim party leader and here he is after
:02:01. > :02:06.visiting Steven Woolfe. I'm pleased to say he is sitting up in bed and
:02:07. > :02:08.feeling better. I trust that overnight, you know, everything will
:02:09. > :02:14.be OK and he will be released tomorrow. No doubt he will be laid
:02:15. > :02:19.up for a bit after this. He's been through a big shock today. As for
:02:20. > :02:23.the events which led up to it, well, it is two grown men getting involved
:02:24. > :02:28.in an altercation, it is not very good behaviour, but I am not today
:02:29. > :02:32.going to get involved in the blame game and name names and say who did
:02:33. > :02:39.what. But it shouldn't have happened. Before we get the latest,
:02:40. > :02:42.Nigel Farage is the man who made Ukip a significant political force.
:02:43. > :02:46.He was responsible for some of the pressure which led to the Brexit
:02:47. > :02:51.referendum being called. He was a high-profile campaigner for the vote
:02:52. > :02:56.to leave. Once the referendum had been won he said he was stepping
:02:57. > :03:03.down. There was a vote and Diane James was elected to take David --
:03:04. > :03:08.to take over as leader. On Monday she decided that wasn't going to
:03:09. > :03:11.happen any more. Only 18 days after her victory. Which means Nigel
:03:12. > :03:15.Farage was returned as interim leader. Meanwhile, Steven Woolfe,
:03:16. > :03:20.the man at the centre of this story today, is the favourite to take
:03:21. > :03:33.over. These are tumultuous times for a party which is far more
:03:34. > :03:37.significant in UK politics is one of the.
:03:38. > :03:44.He gave a statement from his hospital bed in France that he was
:03:45. > :03:50.feeling pretty good. He is smiling. Feeling bright. He thanked the
:03:51. > :03:55.hospital staff. He thanked his supporters, too. He said he had had
:03:56. > :03:58.a brain scan. He said reports that had been around early in the
:03:59. > :04:03.bleeding on the brain was not the bleeding on the brain was not the
:04:04. > :04:07.case. There was no bleeding on the brain. But he is being kept in as
:04:08. > :04:11.part of observation. But he was feeling OK, which was the good news
:04:12. > :04:15.of calls from that hospital statement. As for what happens next
:04:16. > :04:20.with this party after those extraordinary events this morning,
:04:21. > :04:24.descending into even more bitter descending into even more bitter
:04:25. > :04:32.infighting than was the case before. One of the party's chief donors,
:04:33. > :04:39.Aaron Banks, put out a statement tonight heavily criticising others
:04:40. > :04:42.in the party, calling for two leading members in effect to leave
:04:43. > :04:47.the party over all of this. And referring to one senior figure as a
:04:48. > :04:51.creature from the gutter. That was a reference to Neil Hamilton, a former
:04:52. > :04:56.Conservative MP, who came over to Ukip and had been speaking about
:04:57. > :05:06.these events today. It is getting pretty feisty.
:05:07. > :05:16.2-hit Steven Woolfe? -- who hit. Ironically this was described as
:05:17. > :05:21.they clear the air meeting. What we know is that Steven Woolfe had been
:05:22. > :05:24.speaking. There was a heated exchange. Things got pretty lively.
:05:25. > :05:36.He then said he was going to leave the room. One of the party's MEPs
:05:37. > :05:40.Mike Hooker was in the room. It is reported he left the room with
:05:41. > :05:45.Steven Woolfe. We put that to the party spokesperson. He did not deny
:05:46. > :05:50.that was the case. What happened outside is less clear. MEPs did not
:05:51. > :05:54.witness the sequence of events outside. But certainly, what has
:05:55. > :05:58.been described as an exchange of punches appeared to take place. But
:05:59. > :06:03.it has been reported tonight that Mike Hookem's spokesperson said he
:06:04. > :06:09.did not touch Steven Woolfe. He is not -- has not responded to our
:06:10. > :06:13.request tonight to talk to us. Whatever then took place left Steven
:06:14. > :06:21.Woolfe in the state where he hit his head. He then went off to a vote. He
:06:22. > :06:26.felt unwell during that. It was at that point he collapsed.
:06:27. > :06:30.Thanks very much. I'm sure this story will unfold through this
:06:31. > :06:33.evening and tomorrow. Time for sport. We will talk about an evening
:06:34. > :06:38.of World Cup qualifying matches. I'm going to talk about a few
:06:39. > :06:41.of them in a minute - but I want to start with Kosovo,
:06:42. > :06:45.which is playing its first ever home Croatia are the opponents -
:06:46. > :06:49.but the match isn't in Kosovo as the national stadium
:06:50. > :07:04.is being rebuilt, it's in Albania. Many of these players actually
:07:05. > :07:06.played for other countries before the International football
:07:07. > :07:10.authorities recognised Kosovo earlier this year and Fifa has
:07:11. > :07:14.allowed them to switch allegiance so they can take part in this debut
:07:15. > :07:22.World Cup qualifying campaign. I wanted to make the switch. It is the
:07:23. > :07:26.land... I was born here in Kosovo. I have family here. My parents are
:07:27. > :07:42.from Kosovo. For me it is a very nice thing to be in this team and to
:07:43. > :07:46.represent Kosovo. As you can see, people's sporting loyalties are
:07:47. > :07:51.still not exactly decided. The local knock-off football shirt stand sells
:07:52. > :07:57.as many black and red Albanian shirts as it does the blue and
:07:58. > :08:00.yellow of Kosovo. What's more, Kosovo is still struggling to
:08:01. > :08:03.establish itself as a functioning state. The national team has a job
:08:04. > :08:08.on its hands not just to win the match but people's hearts and minds,
:08:09. > :08:15.as well. Thanks very much. And we'll is live
:08:16. > :08:25.from the BBC sports Centre. How are they getting on? -- Will.
:08:26. > :08:32.Things are not going well. The decision was made back in June,
:08:33. > :08:34.Kosovo won the right to play, despite strong opposition from
:08:35. > :08:36.Serbia. Fifa allowed Kosovan players Serbia. Fifa allowed Kosovan players
:08:37. > :08:41.who already played for a national who already played for a national
:08:42. > :08:44.team to switch nationalities as a one-off exception. They got a good
:08:45. > :08:48.result against Finland in their opening game. But it is a huge
:08:49. > :08:56.night, playing at home, albeit across the board in Albania, but it
:08:57. > :09:06.has not gone to plan, a 6-0 defeat. Mario Mandzukic scored.
:09:07. > :09:11.Clearly not going to plan for Kosovo. Let's talk about big game of
:09:12. > :09:18.the night, Italy against Spain. It was a 1-1 draw. The full-time
:09:19. > :09:22.whistle has just in group G. It might be surprising for some people
:09:23. > :09:28.that they are in the same group for qualifying. Spain are the seeded
:09:29. > :09:33.team, Italy are unseeded. There was a big mistake by the Italy
:09:34. > :09:38.goalkeeper. Daniele De Rossi levelled things with a late penalty.
:09:39. > :09:47.Italy were knocked out of the group stages in 2014, but they made the
:09:48. > :09:53.final this year. 20 people will be watching this in
:09:54. > :09:57.Wales. After Euro 2016 their opponents will know more about them
:09:58. > :10:02.than perhaps before. -- plenty of people will be watching this.
:10:03. > :10:07.They are in stoppage time. It is still 2-2. A great game. A real
:10:08. > :10:16.roller-coaster of a match for the team who made the finals of Euro
:10:17. > :10:20.2016. -- quarterfinals. Wales went ahead through an own goal from
:10:21. > :10:26.Tottenham defender Kevin Demo before there was another goal thanks to a
:10:27. > :10:32.mix-up from Wales at the back. 2-2 against Austria.
:10:33. > :10:35.Thanks very much. There is full coverage of those qualifiers via the
:10:36. > :10:37.BBC sport app. One of Team Sky's former riders has
:10:38. > :10:40.questioned their decision to allow Sir Bradley Wiggins to take a banned
:10:41. > :10:43.drug to treat his asthma. In an exclusive interview
:10:44. > :10:45.for the BBC Jonathan Tiernan-Locke, who rode for the team
:10:46. > :10:48.until he was sacked for a doping violation, says the matter "looked
:10:49. > :10:54.suspicious" and "odd". Sir Bradley - who's always
:10:55. > :10:56.denied any wrongdoing - was granted a therapeutic use
:10:57. > :10:58.exemption before 3 major races, including the 2012 Tour de
:10:59. > :11:16.France which he won. Four years ago he was the next big
:11:17. > :11:21.thing in British cycling. Then Tiernan-Locke's world fell apart,
:11:22. > :11:25.banned for an anti-doping -- banned for a doping allegation. His former
:11:26. > :11:28.employers have recently been involved in another controversy,
:11:29. > :11:31.having to defend Sir Bradley Wiggins's use on medical grounds of
:11:32. > :11:38.a banned steroid before major races. At home in Cornwall, Tiernan-Locke
:11:39. > :11:44.told me he had been surprised about the revelations, and has always
:11:45. > :11:49.maintained his innocence. The timing does not look great. You assume if
:11:50. > :11:52.he had the need for such a thing it would be consistent throughout your
:11:53. > :11:59.career, something you use every year. From that point of view it
:12:00. > :12:01.side, Team Sky don't want to leave side, Team Sky don't want to leave
:12:02. > :12:06.anything to chance because they are thorough. Why risk of these
:12:07. > :12:12.allergies derailing their best laid plans? Therapeutic use exemptions
:12:13. > :12:16.have come under scrutiny after Russian computer hackers bleeped
:12:17. > :12:20.athletes' private medical records. Both Bradley Wiggins and Team Sky
:12:21. > :12:24.insist he took the drug for asthma related allergies and not to gain an
:12:25. > :12:28.unfair advantage. It was approved by the authorities and there is no
:12:29. > :12:35.suggestion either break any rules. Surprised to see some of the TUEs,
:12:36. > :12:41.and especially some of the timing of those from riders from Team Sky.
:12:42. > :12:48.Yeah, I think from the outside it definitely looks, it looks odd, I do
:12:49. > :12:53.think it is not quite singing from the same transparent hymn sheet as
:12:54. > :12:58.we are led to believe previously. Some will listen to what you have to
:12:59. > :13:03.say and say why should we... Absolutely. If the shoe was on the
:13:04. > :13:10.other foot I might think... You know, in a similar fashion. And you
:13:11. > :13:17.are sticking to that? Absolutely. I'm not a drugs cheat. Tiernan-Locke
:13:18. > :13:21.Claims when competing for his country he was offered a legal but
:13:22. > :13:25.painkiller that some in the sport painkiller that some in the sport
:13:26. > :13:29.want banned. There was a time when I brewed in the World Championships.
:13:30. > :13:34.We were offered a painkiller called tramadol. I wasn't in any pain so I
:13:35. > :13:39.didn't need to take it but it was offered around. They did not sit
:13:40. > :13:42.well with me at the time. The national governing body, British
:13:43. > :13:48.cycling, says the doctor concerned denies Tiernan-Locke's claim. He,

:14:07. > :14:16.has become the first Muslim to Playboy pose for in a hijab -- to
:14:17. > :14:21.pose for Playboy in a hijab. For the first time a controversial
:14:22. > :14:24.fracking process has been given the go-ahead in the UK -
:14:25. > :14:26.despite fierce local opposition. The government has overturned
:14:27. > :14:28.a decision by the county council in Lancashire - which means
:14:29. > :14:31.horizontal fracking for shale gas can begin at a site in North West
:14:32. > :14:33.England. Our Industry correspondent
:14:34. > :14:38.John Moylan reports. It's an ordinary field
:14:39. > :14:40.on Lancashire's Fylde coast. And for the past two years,
:14:41. > :14:43.it's been on the Local residents here have been
:14:44. > :14:46.fighting Cuadrilla's plans. The proposed frack site is just that
:14:47. > :14:50.field over there. Susan Holliday lives
:14:51. > :14:52.just 300 metres away. Today she was devastated by the news
:14:53. > :14:54.that fracking had been There's going to be
:14:55. > :14:59.noise 24 hours a day. We are going to be able to hear it,
:15:00. > :15:02.potentially smell it, see it. It's really going to have an affect
:15:03. > :15:12.on our quality of life. Emotions were also running high
:15:13. > :15:14.eight miles away in the village of Roseacre, where fracking might
:15:15. > :15:17.also be approved if traffic It should not go ahead anywhere,
:15:18. > :15:25.but in particular here. The Prime Minister, Theresa May,
:15:26. > :15:31.said democracy should work for everybody and unfortunately
:15:32. > :15:33.for the community here, This region is known
:15:34. > :15:40.for agriculture and tourism. But Cuadrilla's plans will transform
:15:41. > :15:42.this particular part First a drilling rig will be
:15:43. > :15:47.installed here of up to 30 to 40 Then in April next year,
:15:48. > :15:54.they will begin drilling the first And, by the autumn,
:15:55. > :16:01.fracking will begin. That sort of intense,
:16:02. > :16:02.industrial activity could continue Plans are to drill four exploration
:16:03. > :16:08.wells on the side. Cuadrilla believes Britain will need
:16:09. > :16:11.shale gas in the years to come. Today they welcome
:16:12. > :16:14.the Government's decision. It is an important milestone
:16:15. > :16:16.for Cuadrilla and an important milestone for the future
:16:17. > :16:22.of shale gas in the country. But most importantly it gives us
:16:23. > :16:25.an opportunity now to test and see whether this gas that we know
:16:26. > :16:28.is in the ground, we can get it out of the ground at commercial rates
:16:29. > :16:33.and stop importing the stuff. Opponents will now be scrutinising
:16:34. > :16:35.this decision to see But after years of debate, fracking
:16:36. > :16:50.has now come a big step closer. Hello, I'm Ros Atkins,
:16:51. > :17:03.this is Outside Source. Hurricane Matthew has left a trail
:17:04. > :17:08.of destruction in Haiti. Over 100 people so far have been reported
:17:09. > :17:15.dead. Coming up after: If you outside the UK, the importance of
:17:16. > :17:19.African-American voters in Cleveland on deciding which way the Ohio goes
:17:20. > :17:23.in the presidential election. In the UK, the news at ten is next,
:17:24. > :17:24.and there will be much more on hurricane Matthew. Nick Bryant will
:17:25. > :17:32.be live from Haiti. We wouldn't always report
:17:33. > :17:34.on a new England cricket team, but the one that's starts this week
:17:35. > :17:36.in Bangladesh is different. England's captain Eoin
:17:37. > :17:38.Morgan isn't there. -- And nor is the
:17:39. > :17:42.batsman Alex Hales. Both refused to go because of
:17:43. > :17:45.the threat from radical Islamists. Justin Rowlatt has this from Dhaka
:17:46. > :18:03.on the measures being taken Let me play you his report.
:18:04. > :18:12.The England squad does not just have a team Bath here in Bangladesh but
:18:13. > :18:16.an entire team motorcade. -- team bus. The authorities are not taking
:18:17. > :18:21.any chances. The players are guarded by a small army. It's great to be
:18:22. > :18:26.here at a cricket ground. There has been locked in the build-up about
:18:27. > :18:32.security. But now we are here we can start on playing cricket. And
:18:33. > :18:37.plainly they will. But for Bangladesh this tour is about much
:18:38. > :18:44.more than just cricket -- and play they will. The national reputation
:18:45. > :18:51.is on the line. Three months ago it suffered the worst terrorist attack
:18:52. > :18:57.in its history. Five militants attacked a restaurant popular with
:18:58. > :19:08.foreigners. We are the first journalist allowed back in. The cafe
:19:09. > :19:12.is frozen in time. The terrorists killed 20 hostages here. 18 of them
:19:13. > :19:19.foreigners before they themselves were killed in a commando assault.
:19:20. > :19:26.What the pictures cannot show is the terrible smell. What happened here
:19:27. > :19:32.alerted the world to Bangladesh's growing problem with militancy. 40
:19:33. > :19:37.people were killed by Islamist extremists in the three years before
:19:38. > :19:43.the attack here. Bloggers, gay activists and foreigners were all
:19:44. > :19:46.targeted. Many of the attacks were claimed by Isis and groups
:19:47. > :19:56.associated with Al-Qaeda. Raising fears that Bangladesh is becoming a
:19:57. > :20:00.new centre for jihadist violence. The government says it has hit back
:20:01. > :20:05.hard against the Islamist networks. Since the cafe attack more than 150
:20:06. > :20:10.suspected terrorists have been arrested. 20 have been killed.
:20:11. > :20:15.England have been training here all week. This tour is Bangladesh's
:20:16. > :20:19.opportunity to prove to the world that the country is now safe. So any
:20:20. > :20:28.incident will be a disaster. But last week there was a security
:20:29. > :20:33.breach. During a match against Afghanistan a fan managed to invade
:20:34. > :20:42.the pitch. He just wanted to cuddle the Bangladeshi captain. But if a
:20:43. > :20:47.fan can get through canny terrorist? -- can a terrorist?
:20:48. > :20:56.For the first time Playboy has featured a Muslim woman wearing a
:20:57. > :21:08.hijab. We have met the Libyan American woman who decided to do the
:21:09. > :21:12.shoot. My name is Noor Taouri. I'm based in the Washington, DC area. I
:21:13. > :21:17.also travelled as a motivational speaker. People ask why Playboy and
:21:18. > :21:20.I say why not? I don't know why we are going to sit there and
:21:21. > :21:23.constantly say we want people to understand what Muslim American
:21:24. > :21:27.women are like, but we will only share it was certain people. My
:21:28. > :21:32.message is the same. I didn't compromise anything. -- share it
:21:33. > :21:38.with certain people. It is important to have that on the ground and on a
:21:39. > :21:42.territory where they were known for objectifying women. But at the same
:21:43. > :21:45.time if my message is to combat the objectification and the
:21:46. > :21:46.sexualisation of women in our society then what better way to
:21:47. > :21:50.share that message and put it in share that message and put it in
:21:51. > :21:54.peoples faces than on the front of where people are known to do that.
:21:55. > :21:58.There has been a lot of negative reaction from the Middle East in
:21:59. > :22:02.terms of my Playboy piece and I think the first and foremost reason
:22:03. > :22:07.is banned in a lot of countries. The is banned in a lot of countries. The
:22:08. > :22:12.people are not reading interview. The positive is that people know
:22:13. > :22:15.that Muslim women are often misrepresented in media. When you
:22:16. > :22:19.are approaching a story which is sensitive you can share that with
:22:20. > :22:22.them and say, listen, I know what it is like. You can trust me with this
:22:23. > :22:29.story. That's been the most rewarding thing. This is a building
:22:30. > :22:32.that has been covered in medical records... Right now I am pretty
:22:33. > :22:35.much doing everything I love. I get to tell stories around the country
:22:36. > :22:39.and around the world I care about, but I think are important. I don't
:22:40. > :22:47.read the negativity. I focus on the positive and what is next.
:22:48. > :22:52.That report is available online. If you have the BBC News at or you have
:22:53. > :22:56.access to the BBC News website, you can find that particular report in
:22:57. > :23:00.the most watched list. See you next week. Goodbye.
