Hello, this is outside source, we begin in South Africa. The Speaker

:00:09.:00:17.

of the parliament there has made a big announcement. I therefore

:00:18.:00:20.

determined that voting on the motion of no-confidence in the president on

:00:21.:00:27.

the 8th of August 2017 will be by secret ballot. We will be explaining

:00:28.:00:33.

why that is so important. After fresh UN sanctions over its recent

:00:34.:00:36.

missile tests, north Korea hits back. We want to make clear that the

:00:37.:00:43.

worsening situation on the Korean peninsula, as well as other nuclear

:00:44.:00:49.

issues caused by the United States. These pictures show a type of seed

:00:50.:00:53.

bug, they may look tiny but we have some pictures that really aren't for

:00:54.:00:57.

the squeamish that aspect of the damage they can do. A 16-year-old

:00:58.:01:01.

Australian ended up in hospital after earning counter with them. And

:01:02.:01:06.

we'll bring you the latest twist in Venezuela's political crisis, a

:01:07.:01:11.

search is underway after ten man who escaped after attacking a military

:01:12.:01:15.

base. If you want to get in touch, as always, the hashtag is BBC and

:01:16.:01:17.

west. -- BBC OS. Hello, welcome to putter outside

:01:18.:01:36.

source. We start the programme in South Africa because, well, there's

:01:37.:01:38.

been some surprising news there. There will be another vote of

:01:39.:01:42.

no-confidence in President Jacob Zuma, but earlier, the speaker of

:01:43.:01:47.

parliament pointed to a really crucial difference this time. She

:01:48.:01:50.

said this is good to be a secret ballot. And she said that this is to

:01:51.:01:55.

ensure a credible outcome. Here's our Johannesburg responded. The move

:01:56.:02:02.

took many by surprise and inject a new element into the proceedings in

:02:03.:02:06.

Parliament against President Jacob Zuma, where the ANC has always

:02:07.:02:12.

enjoyed a healthy majority. This decision is therefore in the best

:02:13.:02:15.

interests of the country. The speaker is required to guard the

:02:16.:02:20.

procedures of this house and to ensure that the outcome of this very

:02:21.:02:29.

important vote is credible. The secret ballot was seen as the best

:02:30.:02:33.

option for members of Parliament to vote without being intimidated and

:02:34.:02:35.

the call for a vote of no-confidence in President Jacob Zuma was

:02:36.:02:41.

initiated by opposition parties after the president sent nine

:02:42.:02:44.

members of his cabinet in a -- sacked nine members of his cabinet

:02:45.:02:48.

in a controversial reshuffle which saw the country being economic or

:02:49.:02:54.

downgraded. It's a choice between whether you spend with Jacob Zuma or

:02:55.:02:58.

whether you spend against -- stand against Jacob Zuma. Invisible

:02:59.:03:01.

choice, you stand for the interests of South Africa you don't. I think

:03:02.:03:06.

many parties have communicated that they feel a strong confidence saying

:03:07.:03:10.

they want to devote. We are convinced that the ANC members will

:03:11.:03:15.

do the right thing. It is an opportunity for them to demonstrate

:03:16.:03:20.

that they, too, are tired of corruption in this country. Hundreds

:03:21.:03:26.

of people who marched out of Parliament have welcomed the move.

:03:27.:03:37.

Every person camps. That is what we are practising. -- every person

:03:38.:03:40.

camps. It is not just about one person commits about the greater

:03:41.:03:45.

good. What you see today in Roger like the DC tomorrow, people want

:03:46.:03:52.

change and ideally, they want change through constitutional means,

:03:53.:03:54.

through the courts of law, not through a violent response. And the

:03:55.:03:58.

decision today was in line with what the expectation of what the

:03:59.:04:01.

countries. I'm not surprised that she decided in favour of a secret

:04:02.:04:09.

ballot. Because that is a democracy at its best. The question, though,

:04:10.:04:15.

is well ANC MPs help President Zuma keep his job at show him the door?

:04:16.:04:22.

This isn't Jacob Zuma's first vote of no-confidence, it's good to be

:04:23.:04:26.

his eight, in fact. But it is going to be a secret one. But let's find

:04:27.:04:32.

out why it is crucially important. Let's join the online editor of

:04:33.:04:35.

Power FM in Johannesburg. This different this time round, isn't it?

:04:36.:04:38.

A secret ballot, what does that mean? Essentially, it means that ANC

:04:39.:04:44.

parliamentarians who have to vote according to a whip system, they

:04:45.:04:49.

have to vote according to the party line, are technically able to vote

:04:50.:04:53.

whichever way they choose without any repercussions. This opens the

:04:54.:04:59.

gate for possibly defying the president, who is popular inside and

:05:00.:05:05.

outside the party. Explained to us, remind us why we have got to the

:05:06.:05:10.

stage? Why is he so unpopular now? President Zuma is the third

:05:11.:05:15.

president of the democratic South Africa, effectively, and he has had

:05:16.:05:20.

many personal scandal. The biggest of which was using taxpayer money,

:05:21.:05:28.

offered 250 million rands of money, and his personal residence, an

:05:29.:05:32.

upgrade to his personal residence. It became a focus point to a lot of

:05:33.:05:39.

South Africans. At the same time, there was a controversy about his

:05:40.:05:44.

closeness to a particular business family who came from India, and have

:05:45.:05:50.

been very internet and directing state contracts to their own

:05:51.:05:56.

businesses and have made enormous money. This is caused enormous

:05:57.:06:01.

consternation and operate within the South African public and political

:06:02.:06:06.

sphere. If the vote goes against him, what is the next step? What

:06:07.:06:11.

happens? What happens if the vote goes against him, which a lot of

:06:12.:06:17.

people still think is unlikely, is that effectively, the entire

:06:18.:06:19.

cabinet, although ministers, would have to resign and a lot of our

:06:20.:06:23.

parliamentarians. They would have to hold a special elections. And the

:06:24.:06:28.

speaker, who made the decision to have a secret ballot, would

:06:29.:06:32.

effectively be president, acting president, for a couple of weeks

:06:33.:06:36.

while the process took place. Given that Jacob Zuma was always going to

:06:37.:06:42.

stand down by 2019, what you read into this vote of confidence in this

:06:43.:06:48.

secret ballot? I think that in many ways, South Africans are impatient.

:06:49.:06:52.

They cannot wait for 2019. It's a long time away and they crucially --

:06:53.:06:58.

very crucially, economies in a frightening place. We have had

:06:59.:07:02.

several downgrades from international rating agencies, which

:07:03.:07:07.

is affecting all kind of things in our economy, most of all, the

:07:08.:07:11.

unemployment rate. If things keep going as they are boring, we're

:07:12.:07:15.

likely to lose 1 million more jobs in the next year or so, which could

:07:16.:07:20.

be devastating for economy. We have had extremely high unemployment. So

:07:21.:07:27.

there is a sense of urgency. Particularly because of the

:07:28.:07:29.

collections with this family I spoke about, people are concerned about

:07:30.:07:33.

further looting of state resources and weakening of state institutions

:07:34.:07:36.

that are meant to protect public funds and accountability. Digital to

:07:37.:07:42.

you, thank you very much, as always. We will of course continue to

:07:43.:07:46.

monitor what takes place in that secret ballot. -- nice to talk to

:07:47.:07:52.

you. We are going to turn to the United States now, because the city

:07:53.:07:57.

of Chicago has filed a lawsuit to prevent the Trump Ministry from

:07:58.:07:59.

withholding funding from so-called century cities. -- the Trump

:08:00.:08:05.

administration from withholding funding from so-called sanctuary

:08:06.:08:08.

cities. This announcement was made by the city bus nightmare, let's

:08:09.:08:14.

have a listen -- the city's Maher, let's have it wasn't what he has to

:08:15.:08:20.

say. We will not allow our police officers to become political pawns.

:08:21.:08:26.

Chicago will not allow residents have their fundamental rights by

:08:27.:08:31.

Lizzie. And Chicago will never drinkers are status as a welcoming

:08:32.:08:48.

city. At are I spoke to they reasoned that if they are dealing

:08:49.:08:51.

with an document of residence of the cities, it is best if they don't

:08:52.:08:59.

drink it information to law enforcement, the other services come

:09:00.:09:04.

into contact with people, it is best not to turn that information to

:09:05.:09:08.

immigration services because that would force people into the shadows

:09:09.:09:11.

rather than encouraging them to interact with city services

:09:12.:09:13.

committee have a population that will not call the police when there

:09:14.:09:20.

is a crime, a population that want to cut health services or education

:09:21.:09:25.

because of their immigration status, it creates essentially a shadow

:09:26.:09:28.

publishing in the city that is more prone to crime or health issues.

:09:29.:09:34.

That is their viewpoint. The ministry can's viewpoint is that

:09:35.:09:36.

immigration is the law of the land as far as residency goes, if someone

:09:37.:09:43.

in commits a crime or interact with police and don't have residential

:09:44.:09:46.

status, they should be handed over to the federal Government. Guest --

:09:47.:09:56.

Jeff Sessions announcement is that they're going withhold funds from

:09:57.:10:01.

any city that does not give access to public jails when they are

:10:02.:10:07.

holding an undocumented worker, does not share information with federal

:10:08.:10:10.

30s and does not inform the federal Government within 48 hours when they

:10:11.:10:15.

are releasing an undocumented worker are great back into the population.

:10:16.:10:21.

The bill is in perspective, this is a $3.2 million federal grant that

:10:22.:10:25.

goes to Chicago. -- to put this in perspective. Chicago's total budget

:10:26.:10:31.

per year is $9.8 billions, so it is more of a principal fight than

:10:32.:10:33.

talking about significant money for Chicago. The news of this lawsuit

:10:34.:10:40.

comes in the middle fodder is supposed to be a 17 day working

:10:41.:10:45.

holiday for President Trump. But as we are seeing from his productivity,

:10:46.:10:54.

he says... Welcomer for more analysis on this, we return to

:10:55.:11:01.

Anthony. I asked him why Mr Drogba peers so content on making the point

:11:02.:11:08.

-- Mr Trump appears so intent on making appointees working vacation.

:11:09.:11:12.

I think is sensitive to criticism that he's taking a vacation,

:11:13.:11:15.

particularly after he treated when President Obama take athletic

:11:16.:11:21.

vacations, criticising Barack Obama for taking time off. So I think he

:11:22.:11:26.

right thing a bit at accusations of hypocrisy. But he and his wife has

:11:27.:11:29.

been insistent that is to doing work, that the White House is going

:11:30.:11:35.

at the renovations right now so we had to vacate the premises, and

:11:36.:11:41.

while he is in New Jersey, his resort of complex there, you still

:11:42.:11:44.

taking meetings and phone calls, he spoke to the president of South

:11:45.:11:48.

Korea. He is going to New York next week to have more meetings. He's a

:11:49.:11:52.

very active attempts to maintain the perception he is working. Even the

:11:53.:11:56.

report the golf course yesterday. You reckon? Do stay with us here on

:11:57.:12:04.

outside source. Celcer come, in Venezuela, a search for ten men who

:12:05.:12:08.

escaped with weapons after an attack on a military base. More on that

:12:09.:12:16.

shortly. There are renewed warnings of a

:12:17.:12:20.

postcode lottery for women trying to obtain IVF treatment on the NHS.

:12:21.:12:24.

Figures from a health campaign group show a drop of nearly 50% of the

:12:25.:12:27.

number of areas offering three full cycle is. Our correspondence

:12:28.:12:34.

explains. This trend has been known about for a while but it has really

:12:35.:12:40.

accelerated the progress of restriction of IVF availability in

:12:41.:12:45.

England. Of the 209 clinical groups, NHS groups in each area he pay for

:12:46.:12:50.

your health care. In 1929 will only offer one cycle of IVF -- 129 will

:12:51.:12:57.

only offer a one cycle and five don't provide any at IVF at all. The

:12:58.:13:02.

clinical regulator recommends three full cycles of IVF for women up to

:13:03.:13:06.

the age of 40. So there's areas I mentioned current meeting that

:13:07.:13:10.

standard. And some areas have restricted it to 30-35s, not up to

:13:11.:13:15.

40. These numbers have increased over the last six months.

:13:16.:13:27.

Welcome, you're watching Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.

:13:28.:13:33.

Earlier story is Tuesday'svote of no-confidence in South African

:13:34.:13:37.

President Jacob Zuma, will be by secret ballot. It is being seen as a

:13:38.:13:41.

test of unity within the governing African National conference as

:13:42.:13:46.

senior figures become increasingly critical of the leader. -- African

:13:47.:13:54.

National Congress. Other stories: A team of 15 volunteer firefighters on

:13:55.:13:58.

Sicily have been accused of fraud. It is alleged that they claimed

:13:59.:14:01.

state payments for particular far as they themselves had started. That is

:14:02.:14:05.

BBC World Service. The Government have killed three people and wounded

:14:06.:14:11.

to others on a popular beach in north-western Mexico, officials say.

:14:12.:14:17.

And one of our most watched videos is of these areas. This is a talent

:14:18.:14:22.

in remaining with the animals had been leaving the mountains to

:14:23.:14:26.

scavenge for food and local homes. -- in local loans.

:14:27.:14:32.

Our next story is about a British model who was allegedly kidnapped in

:14:33.:14:37.

the Italian city of Milan and then held captive for nearly a week. She

:14:38.:14:44.

has returned to her home in the UK. Let me show you Chloe, she is just

:14:45.:14:52.

20 years old and was apparently taken by a criminal gang to this

:14:53.:14:56.

small place in Italy. It's a small town just about Turing. The plan was

:14:57.:15:03.

to try to auction Chloe off as a sex slave on the dark web. And a Polish

:15:04.:15:06.

man who lives in the UK has been arrested. Our correspondent has sent

:15:07.:15:16.

this report from Milan. Held captive inside this isolated Italian

:15:17.:15:20.

farmhouse. The bizarre and elaborate kidnap allegation centres on how

:15:21.:15:23.

20-year-old model Chloe from south London was duped into leaving the UK

:15:24.:15:29.

for a photo shoot in Milan. Went inside this fake studio, she said to

:15:30.:15:32.

have been slashed by three men and injected with the drug cattlemen. --

:15:33.:15:38.

snatched by three men forced up she was bundled into this bag, placing

:15:39.:15:42.

the boot of a car and driven away. While she was held captive in this

:15:43.:15:44.

house behind me, the police statement said she was tied to

:15:45.:15:51.

furniture, it has of course, where the -- while the kidnappers tried to

:15:52.:15:54.

sell her on the dark web and embrace a ransom. The farmers are surrounded

:15:55.:16:00.

by abandoned houses, with only one neighbour. Anderson, personal, I saw

:16:01.:16:10.

this Englishman -- TRANSLATION: First of all, a sort this

:16:11.:16:13.

Englishman. Then there was a full full. -- a Volvo. The authorities

:16:14.:16:22.

say she was eventually released by one of her captors and driven to the

:16:23.:16:27.

consulate in Milan. A Polish national living in the West Midlands

:16:28.:16:30.

has been arrested in connection with kidnap and extortion. Chloe is now

:16:31.:16:34.

back in the UK. She has spoken briefly to reporters. I have been

:16:35.:16:38.

through a terrifying experiences. I feared for my life, second by

:16:39.:16:42.

second, minute by minute, hour by hour. I'm grateful to the Italian

:16:43.:16:47.

and UK authorities for they have done to secure her release. Milan is

:16:48.:16:53.

a magnet for aspiring models, were the dangers of unscrupulous agencies

:16:54.:16:56.

have all been clear. But this case has shocked the baffled

:16:57.:17:00.

investigators here, you're still try to piece together exactly what

:17:01.:17:04.

happened. Let's turn to Venezuela now with the hunt is on for ten men

:17:05.:17:09.

after the escaped from an attack on military base.

:17:10.:17:12.

This attack took place, you can see, in Valencia. It is the

:17:13.:17:16.

country'sthird largest city and it happened in the early hours of

:17:17.:17:20.

Sunday morning. Boot rebels were killed, when injured, seven

:17:21.:17:23.

arrested. -- boot rebels were killed. The president congratulated

:17:24.:17:29.

the Army for stopping the attack from turning into a full uprising.

:17:30.:17:35.

TRANSLATION: I would congratulate the Armed Forces for the immediate

:17:36.:17:38.

reaction they had against the terrorist attack to stop a week ago,

:17:39.:17:41.

we beat them with votes, and today, we beat the terrorism with bullets.

:17:42.:17:46.

We can have a look at a bit of video which was posted online of this

:17:47.:17:53.

particular attempt. There, you can see, visited up just hours after the

:17:54.:18:00.

new, controversial assembly held its first session and apparently showed

:18:01.:18:03.

soldiers declaring an uprising against President Maduro's Kaufman.

:18:04.:18:09.

People responded to the uprising responded with their own

:18:10.:18:12.

demonstration but police say there are quickly dispersed with tear gas.

:18:13.:18:17.

Let's speak to a reporter who joins us live from Sao Paulo. It's

:18:18.:18:21.

difficult understand who these people work, where they soldiers,

:18:22.:18:24.

where the rebels? Fill us in on who they were. I think the fine detail

:18:25.:18:32.

is still very sketchy, as you say. Now, the people in the video say

:18:33.:18:36.

they are part of the 41st Brigade which is based in Valencia. Mr

:18:37.:18:42.

murder room has dismissed back, and said they were restless. --

:18:43.:18:48.

President Maduro has dismissed it. But they say they were civilians and

:18:49.:18:52.

one man was a deserter. That has been dismissed by the Government but

:18:53.:18:58.

to get an idea of what actually happened on Sunday was pretty hard.

:18:59.:19:02.

To put it mildly, President Maduro is having a challenging time. If

:19:03.:19:06.

these are from the Army, how significant is this to him? It might

:19:07.:19:11.

reveal some cracks beginning to appear but I mean, his predecessor,

:19:12.:19:16.

chav is, make sure that the loyalists did support him within the

:19:17.:19:30.

army. -- Chavez. And the army so says there is unconditional loyalty

:19:31.:19:33.

to President Maduro, that has been stated several times. At the same

:19:34.:19:38.

time, the opposition has tried to win them over in an unofficial

:19:39.:19:43.

referendum against the constituent assembly, which was voted in just

:19:44.:19:46.

over a week ago, which was so controversial. The opposition did

:19:47.:19:48.

ask people whether they would be happy for the army to defend the

:19:49.:19:52.

Constitution, the opposition attracted a kind of win them over.

:19:53.:19:56.

But as it stands, the army still remains loyal to Mr Mejia go. But

:19:57.:20:10.

the -- loyalty President Maduro. The loyalty has been tested? The country

:20:11.:20:14.

is divided, every time something like this happens, it comes back to

:20:15.:20:18.

the fact that it was either a mysterious train to get involved,

:20:19.:20:22.

foreign involvement, and that has been a theme throughout nor does

:20:23.:20:30.

President Maduro, time but also in President Chavez's time, foreign

:20:31.:20:32.

intervention is not welcome in Venezuela. That is what we have

:20:33.:20:38.

heard. And after this uprising on Sunday, we have heard once again

:20:39.:20:42.

that it was foreign powers try to get involved that were behind this

:20:43.:20:45.

uprising. Thank you very much. The whole of Venezuela being tested

:20:46.:20:50.

there. That's 20 business. A letter by an

:20:51.:20:54.

anime to Google employee has sparked a row about diversity at the

:20:55.:20:59.

Company. -- letter by an unnamed Google employee. The letter said

:21:00.:21:06.

that the lack of female tech leaders was partly due to biological causes

:21:07.:21:11.

and men have higher driver status. Google says that this does not

:21:12.:21:16.

encourage that viewpoint -- it does not encourage that viewpoint and

:21:17.:21:19.

that diversion and it considered a fundamental part of its culture.

:21:20.:21:23.

Doctor Sue Black as an adviser to the Government on digital services

:21:24.:21:27.

and this is what she had to say. I read these opinions throughout my

:21:28.:21:31.

career. Data using text, I've had so many people say this kind of thing

:21:32.:21:37.

to me. -- 30 years in tech. But it's great that we have these forums, we

:21:38.:21:41.

have the intellect which we didn't have many years ago, we can discuss

:21:42.:21:47.

these things. I'm very happy -- via the internet. I'm happy we can

:21:48.:21:51.

discuss this. I've been teaching coding for nearly 30 years now.

:21:52.:21:55.

Citing urges men to do more science and engineering type stuff and

:21:56.:21:59.

doesn't record wouldn't so much. -- society encourages. We need to

:22:00.:22:02.

encourage women and girls into the area.

:22:03.:22:06.

particular teenager late at night. There he is in hospital, but have a
