start of a resurgence of summer? Or have more in the next hour. Hello, | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
and Philippa Thomas, this is outside source. In Sierra Leone at least 400 | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
people have died in mudslides and massive flooding. The president says | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
urgent support is needed and there are fears that the number of dead | :00:24. | :00:34. | |
could rise. Trying to sort the helicopters and, more have been | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
brought in, this is a disaster. It's absolutely unprecedented. Also on | :00:39. | :00:46. | |
the show more White has intrigued as reports circulated that one of the | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
President's top advisers might be on his way out but it's not all bad | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
news for the US president, Kim Jong and says he will hold fire on the | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
North Korea's proposal to shoot missiles on the US territory of Guam | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
and some give the Trump administration credit. I think a lot | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
of it has to do not only with the strong statements made by our | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
president but also statements made by secretary Rex to listen and James | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
Mattis. Setting off into uncharted waters, we will talk to the team on | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
board. And to get in touch at any time the hashtag is BBC OS. | :01:25. | :01:43. | |
Welcome to Outside Source. In Sierra Leone, in the capital, Freetown, at | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
least 400 people have been killed by mudslides and massive flooding. The | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
situation is so dire that a mass burial of victims is planned to free | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
up space in mortuary. This is part of Sugarloaf mountain which | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
collapsed following heavy rain early on Monday. It involved summoning | :02:05. | :02:10. | |
arms. The president says the country needs urgent support now. Umaru | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
Fofana is in Freetown and sent this report. On the day after, the | :02:16. | :02:23. | |
emergency services are still overstretched. Inside the central | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
mortuary of the main hospital, piles of bodies. They are lying on the | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
floor in the open because there is no more space. Almost 100 bodies | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
were brought in on Tuesday morning, bringing the total to nearly 400, | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
some of them without limbs. The head of the mortuary says they are | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
overstretched and that is not all as they were trying to sort the copters | :02:46. | :02:50. | |
out, more have been brought in from different parts of the city. Even | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
the rescue effort is challenged, people are believed to still be | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
alive underneath this soil but even if they are it will be a miracle to | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
find them breathing. The government and developing partners have now set | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
up a response Centre registering those left behind by the disaster, | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
yet relief supplies are slow in coming. But the testimonies from | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
those badly hit by this disaster are in no short supply. | :03:16. | :03:24. | |
TRANSLATION: I first saw the body of my sister and called on | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
people to help me and we laid her on the floor. | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
Then I started hearing other people nearby crying. | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
Monday's mudslide and flash floods have shaken this country. | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
Even for a country that has known a bloody civil war and | :03:37. | :03:38. | |
a destabilising Ebola outbreak, this is unbearable. | :03:39. | :03:48. | |
Umaru is one of those asking if this tragedy could have been prevented. | :03:49. | :03:56. | |
This is from his latest Facebook blog about how he felt having to | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
report this. This quote caught my eye. Yes, the floods and mudslides | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
were caused by nature but they could have been avoided or at least | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
mitigated. If we had the environment, the environment will | :04:10. | :04:19. | |
fight back. Earlier, the BBC spoke to Ramatu Jalloh, who is with Save | :04:20. | :04:22. | |
the Children in Freetown. She said more about the situation the | :04:23. | :04:26. | |
rescuers were in. I think it's a great challenge, it up and totally | :04:27. | :04:31. | |
beyond expectations and in terms of the gravity of this situation for | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
Freetown and Sierra Leone right now it was beyond our expectations. In | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
terms of preparedness the government has put certain systems in place to | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
deal with the situation but as I say it was beyond what we were | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
expecting. We were expecting floods and I think plans were in place to | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
deal with floods and possibly the scenarios that would emerge from a | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
flood situation but never a disaster as large as this. It is, I think, | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
beyond what we ever sought when it comes to flooding. I think no one | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
really expected a mudslide particularly in the area where it | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
occurred. And just seeing the gravity of the site with a mudslide | :05:14. | :05:21. | |
took place, it's an absolute shock. At the moment we are estimating | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
thousands of families displaced, it is estimated at about 3000 families | :05:26. | :05:35. | |
displaced, half of which are children, some are placed in | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
community centres and schools and we hope the weather holds because some | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
families at home to try to clean up the sledge and dream of stagnant | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
water to make their homes have it all. A lot of these families have | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
lost everything, so the situation is desperate -- to make their homes | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
habitable. We are trying to respond to the emergency as soon as possible | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
and of course the Health Secretary is looking at cholera preparedness | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
and other sectors are looking at psychosocial and other support for | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
families and children but right now, to be honest, we all in a really | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
shocked situation, all trying to get on top this. | :06:15. | :06:31. | |
The fallout over Donald Trump's response to violence during a far | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
right rally at the weekend has continued and the blowtorch is now | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
on this man, chief White House strategist, | :06:39. | :06:40. | |
A number of media outlets in the US have reported Mr Bannon - | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
the former editor of right-wing website Breitbart - | :06:45. | :06:46. | |
Donald Trump is giving a press conference, let's go there now. I | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
brought it, I brought it, I brought it. As I said, and remember, the | :06:53. | :06:59. | |
Saturday, we condemn in the strongest possible terms this | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence. It has no place in | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
America. And then I went on from there, now here's the thing, excuse | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
me, take it nice and easy. Here's the thing. When I make a statement | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
like to be correct. I want the facts. This event just happened. A | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
lot of the events didn't even happen yet, as we were speaking. This event | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
just happened. Before I make a statement I need the facts. So I | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
don't want to rush into a statement. So making the statement when I made | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
it was excellent. In fact the young woman, who I here's a fantastic | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
young woman and was on NBC, her mother wrote me and said, through, I | :07:42. | :07:48. | |
guess Twitter, social media, the nicest things. I very much | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
appreciated that. I hear that she was fine, actually an incredible | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
young woman. Her mother on Twitter thanked me for what I said. And | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
honestly, if the press were not fake and if it was honest, the press | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
would have said what I said was very nice. But unlike you... Excuse me, | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
unlike the media, before I make a statement like to know the facts. | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
They don't. They don't. They don't. How about a couple of... Mr Trump, | :08:21. | :08:33. | |
was that terrorism, that event? You offered to bring the country | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
together, did you? You take a look, I've created over 1 million jobs | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
since I've become president. The country's booming, the stock market | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
is setting records. We have the highest employment numbers we've | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
ever had in the history of this country, we are doing wreck and | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
business, we have the highest levels of enthusiasm. The head of all Mart, | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
a very nice guy, was making a political statement. -- the head of | :08:59. | :09:07. | |
Walmart. I want to make sure, when I make a statement, that the statement | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
is correct. And there was no way, there was no way of making a correct | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
statement that early. I had to see the facts, unlike a lot of | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
reporters... I didn't know David Duke was there. I wanted to see the | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
facts. And the facts as they started coming out, were very well stated. | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
In fact everybody said, his statement was beautiful, if he would | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
have made it sooner that would have been good. I could not have made its | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
sooner because I didn't know all of the facts. Frankly people still | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
don't know all the facts. It is very important, excuse me, it was very | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
important to me to get the facts out and correctly. Because if I would | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
have made the first statement and the first statement was made without | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
knowing much other than what we were seeing. The second statement was | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
made with knowledge, with great knowledge. There are still things | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
people don't know. I want to make a statement with knowledge. I want to | :10:11. | :10:17. | |
know the facts. Two questions, was this terrorism and how are you | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
feeling about your chief strategist? The driver of the car is a disgrace | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
to himself, his family and his country. You can call it terrorism. | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
You can call it murder. You can call it whatever you want. I would just | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
call it as the fastest one to come up with a good verdict, that is what | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
I'd call it. Because there is a question, is it murder, is it | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
terrorism and then you get into legal semantics. The driver of the | :10:45. | :10:51. | |
car is a murderer. And what he did was a horrible, horrible, | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
inexcusable thing. Tell us how you feel about your chief strategist, | :10:56. | :11:04. | |
Steve Bannon? I never spoke to Mr Bannon about it. Do you still have | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
confidence in him. We'll see. I like Steve Bannon, he's a good friend. He | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
came on board very late, I went through 17 governors and I won all | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
the primaries. Mr Bannon came in much later than that. I like him, he | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
is a good man. He is not a racist, I can tell you that. He is a good | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
person. He gets a very unfair press in that regard. We will see what | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
happens with Mr Bannon. But he is a good person and I think the press | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
treats him frankly very unfairly. You have been called on to defend HR | :11:43. | :11:54. | |
McMaster against attacks. I did that. Do you mean Senator McCain who | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
voted against is getting good health care? Senator McCain said the | :11:58. | :12:07. | |
alt-right is behind these attacks and he linked them to the attacks in | :12:08. | :12:14. | |
Charlottesville. I couldn't tell you, I am sure Senator McCain knows | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
what he's talking about. Define alt-right to me. Go ahead. Senator | :12:20. | :12:31. | |
McCain defined them as... What about the three Mac. Alt-left who came | :12:32. | :12:43. | |
charging at the alt-right, swinging clubs, do they have any problem? I | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
think they do. As far as I'm concerned that was a horrible, | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
horrible day. Wait a minute. I'm not finished. I'm not finished, fake | :12:52. | :12:59. | |
news. That was a horrible day. I will tell you something. I watched | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
those very closely, much more closely than you people watched it. | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
You had a group on one side that was mad and you had a group on the other | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
side that was also very violent. And nobody wants to say that but I will | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
say it right now. You had a group on the other side that came charging in | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
without a permit and they were very, very violent. Do you think that what | :13:23. | :13:33. | |
you call the alt-left is the same as neo-Nazis? All of those people, | :13:34. | :13:40. | |
excuse me, I have condemned neo-Nazis. I have condemned many | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
different groups but not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
me. Not all of them were white supremacists by any stretch. Those | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
people were also there because they wanted to protest the taking down of | :13:53. | :14:00. | |
a statue of the Robert EV. You look at some of the groups and you see, | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
and you would know it if you are honest reporters which in many cases | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
you are not, but many of those people were there to protest the | :14:09. | :14:18. | |
taking down of Robert E Lee. I noticed that Andrew Jackson is | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
coming down and I wonder if it will be Thomas Jefferson of the week | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
after. You have to ask yourself where does it stop. They were there | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
to protest, excuse me, you take a look the night before, they were | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
there to protest at the taking down of the statue of the Robert E Lee. | :14:35. | :14:41. | |
Infrastructure question. Did the statue stay up, should it stay up? I | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
would say that's up to the local town, the community, the local | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
government where it is located. Are you against the Confederacy? Do you | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
think things in America have got that? Look, they've been frayed for | :15:00. | :15:02. | |
a long time, you can ask President Obama because he made speeches about | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
it. I believe that the fact that I brought in, it will be sin, millions | :15:08. | :15:11. | |
of jobs, you will see where companies are moving back into our | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
country, I think that will have a tremendous positive impact on race | :15:16. | :15:22. | |
relations, we have to car companies that have just announced, we have | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
one in Wisconsin, we have many companies as a pouring back into the | :15:28. | :15:32. | |
country. I think it's going to have a huge positive impact on race | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
relations. You know why, it's jobs. What people want now is jobs, great | :15:38. | :15:42. | |
jobs with good pay. And when they have that, you watch a race | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
relations will be. I tell you, we spending a lot of money on the inner | :15:46. | :15:49. | |
cities. We are fixing the inner cities. We are doing far more than | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
anyone has done with respect to the inner cities. It is a priority for | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
me. Are you putting what you are calling the alt-left and white | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
supremacists on the same model plane. Am not putting anybody on the | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
moral plane, I am saying you had one group on one side and one group one | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
another and they came at each other with clubs and was vicious, | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
horrible, horrible thing to watch. There was a group on this site, you | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
can call them the left, you have called the left, that came violently | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
attacking the other group. So you can say what you want but that's the | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
it is. You said that there was hatred and violence on both sides, | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
Sir. I think there is blame on both sides. You look at both sides. I | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
think there is blame on both sides. I have no doubt about it and you | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
don't have any doubt about it either. And if you reported it | :16:46. | :16:54. | |
accurately, you would say... The neo-Nazis started this thing in | :16:55. | :17:01. | |
Charlottesville. You had some very bad people in that group but you | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. You had | :17:06. | :17:10. | |
people in that group, excuse me, excuse me, I saw the same pictures | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
taking down of, to them, a very important statue, and the renaming | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
of a park from Robert E Lee to another name. White nationalists? | :17:25. | :17:32. | |
Was George Washington a slave owner? Will George Washington now loses | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
status? Excuse me? Are we going to take down the statues to George | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
Washington? How about Thomas Jefferson? Do you like him? Good. We | :17:43. | :17:47. | |
going to take down the study because he was a major slave owner. Will we | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
take down his statue? You know what, it's fine. You're changing history, | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
changing culture and you had people and I'm not talking about the | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
neo-Nazis and the white nationalists because they should be condemned | :18:01. | :18:03. | |
totally but you had many people in that group other than neo-Nazis and | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
white nationalists, OK. And the press has treated them absolutely | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
unfairly. In the other group also you will have some fine people but | :18:14. | :18:19. | |
you also had trouble makers and you saw them coming with the black | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
outfits and the helm ats and the baseball bats. You had a lot of bad | :18:23. | :18:30. | |
people in the other group as well. You were saying that the press had | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
treated white nationalists unfairly? I don't understand. There were | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
people in that rally, I looked at before, if you look, there were | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
people protesting very quietly the taking down of the statue of Robert | :18:45. | :18:49. | |
E Lee. I am sure that in that group there were some bad ones. The | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
following day it looked like they have some rough bad people. Neo | :18:54. | :18:59. | |
Nazis, white nationalists, whatever you call them that a lot of people | :19:00. | :19:03. | |
were there to innocently protest, and legally protest, I don't know if | :19:04. | :19:07. | |
you know, they had a permit. The other group did not have a permit. I | :19:08. | :19:13. | |
only tell you this, that our two sites to story. I thought what place | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
was a horrible moment for our country. Horrible moment. But there | :19:20. | :19:25. | |
are two sides to the story. Does anyone have a final... You didn't | :19:26. | :19:32. | |
get health care. What makes you think you didn't get an | :19:33. | :19:35. | |
infrastructure failure. We came close with health care, John McCain | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
voted against it at the last minute, you have to ask him why. We came | :19:40. | :19:43. | |
close to it, we'll end up getting health care, infrastructure is one | :19:44. | :19:47. | |
thing I think we will have bipartisan support on. I think | :19:48. | :19:54. | |
Democrats will go along with... Mr President have you spoken to the | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
family of the victim of the car attack? I thought that the | :19:58. | :20:06. | |
statement, the mother's statement I thought was beautiful. It was | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
something that I really appreciated. I thought it was terrific. Under the | :20:13. | :20:19. | |
kind of stress that she is under and the heartache she is and I thought | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
putting out that statement to me was really something I want forget. | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
Thank you all very much. Thank you. Donald Trump, you heard, was in | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
defensive mode. Obviously angry at the way his reaction to the violence | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
in Charlottesville has been reported. He said of the violence | :20:39. | :20:46. | |
that there were both groups that were violent, aside on the left | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
violently attacked and there is blame on both sides. He said of the | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
group on the right that they were not all neo-Nazis or white | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
supremacists. He was questioned repeatedly, are you putting the | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
alt-right and the left wing protesters on the same plane, given | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
that one woman died, and she died allegedly at the hands of an | :21:08. | :21:15. | |
alt-right protester. I think we can go to Washington, and speak to | :21:16. | :21:27. | |
Anthony Zurcher. He said he could not have made a statement earlier | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
because he didn't have all the facts. That was puzzling. What we | :21:31. | :21:35. | |
saw yesterday was a carefully planned, scripted statement of Mr | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
Trump addressing the situation, but I think we now have a window about | :21:40. | :21:44. | |
white he acted the way he did on Saturday after the violence in | :21:45. | :21:46. | |
Charlottesville. He said he wanted to make sure he got the story out | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
but it was clear that he thinks that there were violent people on both | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
sides. I think it was pretty clear, even before violence broke out in | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
Charlottesville, what the nature of those protests were when he talked | :22:02. | :22:05. | |
about what was going on the night before, he has courted a peaceful | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
protest. The night before there were white supremacists marching around | :22:11. | :22:14. | |
Charlottesville, the University of Virginia's campus having chants like | :22:15. | :22:22. | |
"Blood and soil". So the nature of the protests were clear but as you | :22:23. | :22:25. | |
said Donald Trump was very defensive. He feels there is another | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
side to the story and that was why he was reluctant to explicitly | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
condemn white supremacists on Saturday. Donald Trump made that | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
point quite powerfully when he talked about two sides to a story | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
and said, we going to take down statues of George Washington and | :22:43. | :22:45. | |
Thomas Jefferson because they were slave owners. Will we deny history? | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
A lot of people in America presumably would think, he's | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
speaking the truth there. Right, I grew up in the South, I had a civil | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
war memorial in my hometown of Austin, Texas. Civil War ornaments | :23:01. | :23:06. | |
are an important cultural touchstone for many white Southerners but they | :23:07. | :23:11. | |
are also considered by some critics to be condoning treason. Robert E | :23:12. | :23:17. | |
Lee led an army that fought against the US government army. George | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
Washington did not do that, Thomas Jefferson did not do that so I think | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
you will hear critics say that Mr Trump is taking sides in this | :23:26. | :23:31. | |
particular debate over removing the statues. He did mention that it was | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
a local decision and should be a local decision. He didn't weigh in | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
on whether the statue should remain or not although I know there was a | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
local decision in Charlottesville to remove the Robert E Lee statue, that | :23:45. | :23:47. | |
is what the people were protesting against. In this case the city of | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
Charlottesville was taking action that Mr Trump has said after the | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
fact that he supports. As you say, revealing a news conference. One of | :23:59. | :24:03. | |
the points to Trump made when asked how will race relations improve, he | :24:04. | :24:08. | |
said, jobs, I will bring back jobs, jobs are the answer. That is this | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
focus, isn't it. It is and this is what the event today was supposed to | :24:14. | :24:18. | |
be about before he turned it over to media questions, he was talking | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
about infrastructure investments, how he would streamline the ability | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
to finance massive government projects and how much easier it will | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
be under his administration to build a skyscraper or build a highway. He | :24:30. | :24:33. | |
was talking about the jobs, taking credit for the millions of jobs that | :24:34. | :24:39. | |
have been created in the country since he became president. I think | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
the bottom line is, all of the conflict, all of the controversies | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
that have swirled around his administration will all eventually | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
take a back-seat if the economy is doing well, if people are getting | :24:53. | :24:55. | |
jobs and feeling better about with the economy is heading. Anthony, | :24:56. | :25:00. | |
good to have you with us. We will finish this edition with this story. | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
At least 12 people have been reported killed by a falling tree | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
during a religious festival on the Portuguese island of Madeira. It | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
happened in the capital. More than 50 others were injured when the | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
200-year-old oak tree came down without warning at the gathering. | :25:18. | :25:21. | |
This is how one of the worshippers described events of the celebration. | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
We heard a noise. I looked up, my son was by my side. I only saw the | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
tree falling so I called my son and I ran away. I had a Big Bang. A lot | :25:33. | :25:40. | |
of people in a panic. A lot of people were down there. And just to | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
remind you of our breaking news, during this edition Donald Trump | :25:48. | :25:50. | |
defending his statement about the violence in Virginia at the weekend. | :25:51. | :25:55. | |
More to come, another edition of the programme is coming right up so | :25:56. | :25:56. | |
please stay with us. Thank you, we'll take a look at the | :25:57. | :26:13. | |
