:00:15. > :00:20.Donald Trump is in Paris but the questions about his son's decision
:00:21. > :00:24.to take a meeting with a Russian lawyer have followed the President
:00:25. > :00:27.across the Atlantic. I do think this, I think from a practical stand
:00:28. > :00:31.point, most people would have taken that meeting.
:00:32. > :00:35.That was during a press conference with Emmanuel Macron. You can see
:00:36. > :00:38.them there. Of course they have major disagreements on climate
:00:39. > :00:44.change and the Paris Agreement. If it happens, that will be
:00:45. > :00:47.wonderful, and if it doesn't, that will be OK too.
:00:48. > :00:55.Nobel Prize Winner and Chinese dissident
:00:56. > :00:59.He took part in the Tiananmen Square protests - but had spent most
:01:00. > :01:04.The UK Government has published a bill that aims to convert all EU
:01:05. > :01:08.It's as complicated as it sounds - we'll try to explain it.
:01:09. > :01:11.And if you've got any questions on that or anything else we're
:01:12. > :01:35.President Trump has begun a two-day trip to France.
:01:36. > :01:39.Here are pictures earlier showing President Trump and his wife being
:01:40. > :01:48.greeted by Emmanuel Macron and his wife. From there they went to the
:01:49. > :01:51.Elysee Palace, that I were getting ready for dinner in the Eiffel
:01:52. > :01:56.Tower. The President was taken with what happened. But before he set
:01:57. > :01:59.off, he wanted to make clear to all of us this is not going distract me
:02:00. > :02:13.from what is going on at home. He said I have very little time for
:02:14. > :02:18.watching TV. He is very keen on watching TV, particularly network
:02:19. > :02:21.new, they have held this press conference and inevitably there were
:02:22. > :02:27.questions about Donald Trump Jr's decision to meet a Russian lawyer,
:02:28. > :02:32.in Trump tower last year. As far as my son season concerned.
:02:33. > :02:37.He with a wonderful young man, he took a meeting with a Russian
:02:38. > :02:44.lawyer, not a government lawyer, but a Russian lawyer. It was a short
:02:45. > :02:48.meeting. It was a meeting that went very very quickly, very fast, two
:02:49. > :02:51.other people were in the room. One of them left almost immediately and
:02:52. > :02:56.the other one was not really focussed on the meeting. I do think
:02:57. > :03:00.this, think from a practical stand point, most people would have taken
:03:01. > :03:04.that meeting. It is call opposition research or
:03:05. > :03:10.even research endo your opponent. To be clear from the e-mails we saw
:03:11. > :03:14.from Donald Trump Jr, the e-mails that press conference faced the
:03:15. > :03:18.setting up of that meeting said that damaging information on Hillary
:03:19. > :03:20.Clinton would be provided via a lawyer, but the information was
:03:21. > :03:23.coming from the Russian Government as part of its support for the Trump
:03:24. > :03:31.campaign. That is worth bearing in mind.
:03:32. > :03:35.David Eades is covering the visit to Paris, I wanted to know if the issue
:03:36. > :03:40.of his son was overshadowing the President's visit. I wouldn't say it
:03:41. > :03:46.is overshadowed it really. It has been a melange of issues to address
:03:47. > :03:54.here, that is clearly one which the White House pack is homing in on and
:03:55. > :03:57.will be taken back and in terms of domestic politics, critically
:03:58. > :04:02.important, but you know, there was discussion about Iraq and Syria,
:04:03. > :04:06.very much a message of cooperation between the likes of France and the
:04:07. > :04:11.US, there was discussion even about China, frankly and what they thought
:04:12. > :04:14.of the Chinese leader, about climate change with Donald Trump throwing up
:04:15. > :04:18.vague suggestion that maybe a deal can yet be done, a compromise could
:04:19. > :04:22.be reached which is going to introduce another element of
:04:23. > :04:27.interest to that issue, where we all thought it subsided somewhat. Then
:04:28. > :04:31.perhaps the pithiest question was about Trump's view of France,
:04:32. > :04:36.because in his election campaign, he was talking about Paris isn't Paris
:04:37. > :04:39.any more because of immigration and terror threats. France can't look
:04:40. > :04:43.after itself, and here, he nailed that issue and said you have to a
:04:44. > :04:46.new man in charge, a new President. A great President, a strong
:04:47. > :04:50.President, and he will make things right, and I will come back again.
:04:51. > :04:53.So, I am sure that is what the French will pick up on. More in a
:04:54. > :05:03.moment. Here is a tweet from Donald Trump.
:05:04. > :05:05.The two seem to be getting on very well.
:05:06. > :05:07.The press conference was very convivial -
:05:08. > :05:08.these two have had major differences.
:05:09. > :05:11.Before the French election, Donald Trump appeared to support
:05:12. > :05:18.She was in the second round run off against Emmanuel Macron. Mr Trump
:05:19. > :05:23.said she is the strongest on boarders.
:05:24. > :05:26.Then of course there was the famous muscular handshake between the two
:05:27. > :05:31.in May when they first met. It seemed to go on and on and on. And
:05:32. > :05:36.Mr Macron said there was no no accident. He had deliberately done
:05:37. > :05:41.this so that he could send a message.
:05:42. > :05:45.He said it was a moment of truth. But on more fundamental matters the
:05:46. > :05:48.men have big differences. Emmanuel Macron has been critical of Donald
:05:49. > :05:52.Trump's decision to pull the US out of the Paris Agreement. The issue
:05:53. > :05:55.came up in the press conference, this was Donald Trump and Emmanuel
:05:56. > :06:02.Macron talking, but Mr Trump's response was curious to say the
:06:03. > :06:07.least. I disagree about the reading we have of the Paris Agreement. We
:06:08. > :06:12.have disagreements about this accord. And about the decision made
:06:13. > :06:15.by President Trump. Something could happen with respect to the Paris
:06:16. > :06:21.accord, we will see what happen, but we will talk about that over the
:06:22. > :06:27.coming period of time. And if it happen, that will be wonderful, and
:06:28. > :06:32.if it doesn't, that will be OK too. What do you make of that? Curious,
:06:33. > :06:36.those are the G20 summits, where there was no getting away from the
:06:37. > :06:39.fact that America was completely separate from all of the other
:06:40. > :06:45.members of the G20, on climate change. They didn't even try to
:06:46. > :06:50.dress it up. They had a paragraph saying this is America's situation.
:06:51. > :06:57.The language we heard there was different. So what does David make
:06:58. > :07:00.of that I have spoken to one or two of the Washington insiders, they
:07:01. > :07:05.said we have heard this before, let us wait and see if anything comes on
:07:06. > :07:12.it. Fascinating stuff, does it actually material hides? That is a
:07:13. > :07:16.big question. A final word on the relationship between these two, they
:07:17. > :07:20.are a curious couple. On one level they disagree on a lot. On another
:07:21. > :07:25.there seems to be a certain chemistry. Very different characters
:07:26. > :07:30.in many ways, as you say very different policy views in others but
:07:31. > :07:35.these are two alpha males here, we used to have Francois Hollande and
:07:36. > :07:39.Barack Obama, you couldn't ask for a more different ambience now, they
:07:40. > :07:42.are obviously up in the Eiffel Tower, tucking into a dinner
:07:43. > :07:47.together, building a relationship, and I think, it may be true to say,
:07:48. > :07:51.Donald Trump recognises that Macron is not there to be pushed around. He
:07:52. > :07:55.is here to stay, he is serious, he is strong and that might work well
:07:56. > :07:59.for both men. It could be terrible, could go the other way, the feeling
:08:00. > :08:03.is they are building rapport for the future.
:08:04. > :08:08.Pulled up the live feed we have coming in from, there it was, it
:08:09. > :08:12.disappeared. I was going to show you the live feed, there we go, it is
:08:13. > :08:17.back, the live feed from Paris you can see the spotlight at the top,
:08:18. > :08:21.that is where Emmanuel Macron and Donald Trump and their wives are
:08:22. > :08:25.having dinner at the moment. In the Jules Verne restaurant. It has been
:08:26. > :08:29.cleared out. Six courses apparently and they will not be short of
:08:30. > :08:34.anything to talk about. I presume they won't be using translator, we
:08:35. > :08:35.know Emmanuel Macron speaks excellent French. Speaks excellent
:08:36. > :08:46.French? He speaks English too! Now one of the main stories
:08:47. > :08:52.in the BBC News room. The Chinese dissident,
:08:53. > :08:58.writer and Nobel Peace prize winner, He was being treated
:08:59. > :09:04.for liver cancer. He spent most of the last
:09:05. > :09:06.seven years in prison. And only very recently had he been
:09:07. > :09:09.transferred to hospital. He was in prison for
:09:10. > :09:11.what the Chinese authorities called "subversion" -
:09:12. > :09:13.what he'd actually done is call We asked Celia Hatton
:09:14. > :09:25.to record her thoughts on the story. The hospital said, he is just too
:09:26. > :09:34.sick to go abroad. We can't allow that, but the real story, or an
:09:35. > :09:38.alter mass story seems to come out from his family member, they managed
:09:39. > :09:42.to get messages out into the outside world, saying look, Liu Ziaobo wants
:09:43. > :09:48.to go overseas, people who were close to him told me he was really
:09:49. > :09:52.concerned is about, he was, he knew he was going to die, he was in the
:09:53. > :09:57.late stages of terminal liver cancer. But what he really wanted
:09:58. > :10:01.was for his wife, the love of his life to be able to go overseas with
:10:02. > :10:06.him, and then to be able to live a life in exile. She had been living
:10:07. > :10:10.under house arrest since he had been awarded the Nobel peace prize in
:10:11. > :10:19.2010 and really his last wish was to ensure her freedom.
:10:20. > :10:23.Liu Ziaobo was important because he was able to write a road map for
:10:24. > :10:27.what he thought should happen to China in the future. Many people
:10:28. > :10:31.over the years have called for freedom in China, have called for
:10:32. > :10:38.democracy, but Liu Ziaobo did it in a way that was unrelenting and
:10:39. > :10:41.prolific, he wrote poem, essays all with the same message, calling for a
:10:42. > :10:45.non-violent change of Government in China. An end to Communist party
:10:46. > :10:53.rule and the birth of democracy, but the document that put him away was
:10:54. > :10:58.called charter 08. It outlined in incredibly explicit Frank terms what
:10:59. > :11:00.China needed to do, to become a fully formed democracy. And it
:11:01. > :11:06.lengthy document. And it doesn't lengthy document. And it doesn't
:11:07. > :11:12.mince words. It was Frank enough to terrify the Chinese authorities.
:11:13. > :11:17.For years, western Governments and human rights organisations have been
:11:18. > :11:20.calling for Liu Ziaobo 's freedom. Calling for his wife's freedom and
:11:21. > :11:25.of course there was outrage when he died. But many people are saying
:11:26. > :11:29.this didn't go far enough. Particularly at the G20 meeting
:11:30. > :11:35.which was just held in Germany a few days ago, no western leader, no
:11:36. > :11:40.world leader directly challenged Chinese President to his face, in
:11:41. > :11:43.public, calling for Liu Ziaobo to be allowed to go overseas. Many people
:11:44. > :11:48.are saying that is a failing, that should be a great shame to western
:11:49. > :11:52.Governments, that they didn't go far enough, they didn't go further.
:11:53. > :11:56.Those same people are a killing on those same Governments and
:11:57. > :12:01.organisations to speak up again and to ensure that Liu Ziaobo 's wife is
:12:02. > :12:03.able to go and live a life in exile. Thank you.
:12:04. > :12:07.The UK Government has published a key part of its Brexit Stategy -
:12:08. > :12:10.It will repeal the law from 1972 which took Britain
:12:11. > :12:13.into what was then called the European Economic Community.
:12:14. > :12:15.And it will transpose EU law into British law -
:12:16. > :12:18.so the same rules apply on the day of Brexit as the day before.
:12:19. > :12:21.But the UK Parliament will then have the power to change them.
:12:22. > :12:24.The Brexit Secretary David Davis has called it "one of the most
:12:25. > :12:26.significant pieces of legislation that has ever passed
:12:27. > :12:58.We will not support the bill at second reading unless the Government
:12:59. > :13:01.makes a fund. Aal change to address the concerns expressed by us and
:13:02. > :13:06.other members of Parliament. I tries to do a lot in 19 clauses, I think
:13:07. > :13:12.it will require careful scrutiny, in terms of the powers which it gives
:13:13. > :13:17.Government and how they are to be exercised, Unamended we won't vote
:13:18. > :13:24.for this, we will amend it. It doesn't provide the provision for
:13:25. > :13:27.devolution of powers. Just those clips give you an idea of the
:13:28. > :13:40.pressures coming to bear from all directions. I have been speaking to
:13:41. > :13:43.Leila Natho. This is a numbers game. They are going to struggle to get
:13:44. > :13:47.this bill through. The Government are saying look, this is a
:13:48. > :13:51.technicality, we have to bring these laws back in to UK laws so we can
:13:52. > :13:55.choose which bits which keep and tinker with and which we throw out
:13:56. > :13:59.entirely. Already, as you heard there, we have heard from opposition
:14:00. > :14:05.parties they do not like the bill in its current form. There are disputes
:14:06. > :14:08.over what it means for the devolved administrations, Labour are
:14:09. > :14:11.focussing very much on human rights legislation and they want there to
:14:12. > :14:16.be much more a role for parliamentary scrutiny. And it only
:14:17. > :14:22.takes a few Kvitova rebels for this bill to be derailed so I think we
:14:23. > :14:26.will see start to see certainly over the coming months before this bill
:14:27. > :14:29.is debated, signs of compromises on the Government's parts because, as
:14:30. > :14:34.you say, they do not have the numbers to get this bill through.
:14:35. > :14:39.Help me understand the opposition Labour Party's position? It supports
:14:40. > :14:43.Brexit happening so how it is justifying being this awkward? You
:14:44. > :14:47.are right. So Labour agreed to help the Government to start the Brexit
:14:48. > :14:52.process triggering Article 50, the official way that Britain began its
:14:53. > :14:56.exit from the EU. But what this provides is the first real chance
:14:57. > :15:03.for Labour and the other opposition parties to tinker with the
:15:04. > :15:06.government's vision for Brexit. So it provides a platform really for
:15:07. > :15:12.Labour to say we are going to get our version of Brexit on to the stat
:15:13. > :15:16.toad books. If you take the Charter of Fundamental Rights, the
:15:17. > :15:20.Government saying it is not going to incorporate that charter into EU
:15:21. > :15:24.law, it will protect rights in other ways, Labour are very clear on that,
:15:25. > :15:31.that that is a red line for them, they want that charrer into UK law,
:15:32. > :15:36.incorporated as it is now. And that is just one example, so what this is
:15:37. > :15:41.coming down to is specific, now, we are into the specific policy areas,
:15:42. > :15:46.and the specific visions of Brexit, and that is where the opposition
:15:47. > :15:49.parties think they can play a role. If you have more questions on
:15:50. > :15:52.Brexit, either send them my way or if you go online there is is a vast
:15:53. > :15:55.amount of information explaining all of the elements of Brexit on the BBC
:15:56. > :15:59.News website available do you now. Stay with us on Outside
:16:00. > :16:01.Source - still to come. Boris Nemtsov two years ago.
:16:02. > :16:10.for killing Russian politician, The questions of who ordered them
:16:11. > :16:15.to do, though, remains unanswered. We will have Sarah Rainsford's
:16:16. > :16:29.report. The Department for Transport says
:16:30. > :16:36.the amount would have been higher, but most of the possible problem
:16:37. > :16:39.were down strike action and high levels of staff sickness. Richards
:16:40. > :16:44.we Court was at Victoria Station and told us how the fine was being seen.
:16:45. > :16:48.Most people would agree it is relatively small, if you bear in
:16:49. > :16:52.mind that southern gets about a billion pounds a year to run the
:16:53. > :16:58.whole contract, it has to pay for the train, that is not profit, it
:16:59. > :17:02.says it doesn't make any profit but the Government put in ?300 million
:17:03. > :17:06.into Network Rail, so they could improve the track, and they have
:17:07. > :17:10.given ?20 million for further improvements on the line to
:17:11. > :17:12.Southern. If you look at scale it cost to improve rail service, then
:17:13. > :17:35.?13 million doesn't seem very much. We are live from the BBC News room.
:17:36. > :17:38.Donald Trump has been welcomed by Emmanuel Macron, on his two day
:17:39. > :17:41.visit to France, and President Trump has been defending his son's
:17:42. > :17:46.decision to meet a Russian lawyer last year. He also made some curious
:17:47. > :17:50.comments about the Paris climate change agreement which are almost
:17:51. > :17:53.impossible to decipher, he said perhaps there was some movement on

:19:16. > :19:20.critic. Five men from Chechnya wait to hear their sentence, this man
:19:21. > :19:24.shot Boris Nemtsov in the back. The court was packed full, with press,
:19:25. > :19:30.police, and relatives. All five men looked passive,

:20:31. > :20:34.It became a march of mourning. Mourning. President Putin denounced
