0:00:14 > 0:00:18Hello, this is Outside Source. We start with the election that could

0:00:18 > 0:00:22test President Trump's brand of politics. All eyes are on this

0:00:22 > 0:00:30firebrand Republican, will Alabama voters choose to send him to the

0:00:30 > 0:00:36Senate? President tells a climate change in Paris that the world is

0:00:36 > 0:00:40losing its fight against global warming. Conditions against African

0:00:40 > 0:00:45migrants detained in Libya, European governments are accused of

0:00:45 > 0:00:48complicity in their suffering. Scientists are beginning to unlock

0:00:48 > 0:00:52the secrets of a giant Stormont Jupiter that larger than the Earth.

0:00:52 > 0:00:59We'll be telling you what they found. -- a giant storm on Jupiter.

0:01:09 > 0:01:14Hello, and welcome to Outside Source. Voting is underway in the US

0:01:14 > 0:01:18state of Alabama. And this Senate election has been marred not only by

0:01:18 > 0:01:22scandal, but it could have implications for President Trump. It

0:01:22 > 0:01:25is a real tight race. It is a two horse race between these two men -

0:01:25 > 0:01:30the Democrat candidate Doug Jones and the Republican candidate Roy

0:01:30 > 0:01:36Moore. Let's look at how Roy more votes. He arrives on a horse,

0:01:36 > 0:01:40apparently this is a bit of a tradition of his, to arrive to cast

0:01:40 > 0:01:47his vote on horseback. We wouldn't normally be paying this much

0:01:47 > 0:01:51attention to a Senate election, but this one is significant in the

0:01:51 > 0:01:55number of ways. First, Roy Moore has been making headlines worldwide

0:01:55 > 0:01:58after multiple claims were made against him for once preying on

0:01:58 > 0:02:03teenage girls. He has always denied these allegations, and he did so

0:02:03 > 0:02:07again at the final rally last night. The Washington Post put out this

0:02:07 > 0:02:16terrible, disgusting article, saying I had done something. And I want you

0:02:16 > 0:02:22all to understand something. They said these women had not come

0:02:22 > 0:02:29forward for nearly 40 years. But they waited to 30 days before this

0:02:29 > 0:02:34general election to come forward. Now, a second reason why this

0:02:34 > 0:02:37election is so important - the polls are simply too close to call a

0:02:37 > 0:02:42result. It's one of the issues of a predicted low turnout. If Doug Jones

0:02:42 > 0:02:46does win, this would be the first Democrat Senate win in this deeply

0:02:46 > 0:02:51Conservative state in over 20 years. That's what the wanted when he hit

0:02:51 > 0:02:56home to his supporters in a final rally last night.This election is

0:02:56 > 0:03:00going to be one of the most significant in our state's history

0:03:00 > 0:03:06in a long, long time. And we've got to make sure... We've got to make

0:03:06 > 0:03:11sure that in this crossroads in Alabama's history, we take the right

0:03:11 > 0:03:16road.To round it all off, this election means an awful what

0:03:16 > 0:03:19President Trump. He's been supporting one more, despite the

0:03:19 > 0:03:23allegations against him at the weekend. The president held a rally

0:03:23 > 0:03:27in Alabama in support of Mr Moore. Now Donald Trump needs the

0:03:27 > 0:03:32Republicans to win this seat in order to keep their extremely slim

0:03:32 > 0:03:36two seat majority in the Senate. He needs to do that if he wants to be

0:03:36 > 0:03:40able to pass laws ahead of next year's mid-term congressional

0:03:40 > 0:03:45elections. Well, this would also be a victory for trouble's populist

0:03:45 > 0:03:50brand of politics. Does this sound familiar?We are up to our neck in

0:03:50 > 0:03:53alligators, up to our neck in people who don't want change in Washington,

0:03:53 > 0:03:58DC, they want to keep it the same, keep the power, keep the prestige,

0:03:58 > 0:04:03keep their position. And we've got to change that.That was at a final

0:04:03 > 0:04:08drain the swamp rally last night. Mr Moore is aligned with much of

0:04:08 > 0:04:12trouble's views, including the anti-establishment line, which has

0:04:12 > 0:04:15been criticised by many fellow Republicans -- much of Trump's

0:04:15 > 0:04:20views. A win for Roy Moore could be seen as a win for President Trump,

0:04:20 > 0:04:24bringing the doubters in the party to heal. Polls close at 8pm local

0:04:24 > 0:04:28time. Let's talk to Katty Kay, who has been monitoring this closely.

0:04:28 > 0:04:35Simply too close to call?Yes, the opinion polls, some of them show

0:04:35 > 0:04:38that Roy Moore is ahead by ten points, and some of them show that

0:04:38 > 0:04:42Doug Jones is ahead by ten points, and people are wondering whether

0:04:42 > 0:04:45voters here in Alabama or even telling the pollsters the truth.

0:04:45 > 0:04:49Some of them might feel when asked about Roy Moore that they don't want

0:04:49 > 0:04:52to tell a pollster that they are going to vote for somebody who has

0:04:52 > 0:04:56been accused of sexual harassment of teenagers. Some on the other hand

0:04:56 > 0:05:07may feel that they don't ever want to say that they are going to vote

0:05:07 > 0:05:09for a Democrat, even though they are going to because their families come

0:05:09 > 0:05:12from long lines of Republicans stop. Let's not read too much into the

0:05:12 > 0:05:14polls. Whatever happens here, it's going to be fascinating. If Roy

0:05:14 > 0:05:17Moore winds and goes to Washington and carries with him a firebrand,

0:05:17 > 0:05:20antiestablishment feeling, he upends the Republican Party, there's no

0:05:20 > 0:05:23guarantee that he will always vote with his fellow Republicans, he's

0:05:23 > 0:05:28been kind of at war with them too in Washington. Or Doug Jones wins, and

0:05:28 > 0:05:32for the first time since the early 1990s Alabama sends a Democrat to

0:05:32 > 0:05:36the Senate, which would be remarkable given how deeply

0:05:36 > 0:05:40conservative this state is.What are the implications if the Democrats do

0:05:40 > 0:05:47wind that?, Republican majority in the Senate is reduced, they would

0:05:47 > 0:05:51only have a majority of one. That makes it even harder for the

0:05:51 > 0:05:57president to get his agenda passed, because he could only afford to lose

0:05:57 > 0:06:00one Republican senator, and things don't get done. That's why you've

0:06:00 > 0:06:06seen the president come out so forcefully in support of Roy Moore.

0:06:06 > 0:06:10But I think, you know, the bigger risk, some Republicans are saying,

0:06:10 > 0:06:15is if Roy Moore winds, and we've had plenty of Republicans, even before

0:06:15 > 0:06:17this allegations of sexual harassment who came out and said

0:06:17 > 0:06:20they couldn't vote for Roy Moore because his position is really on

0:06:20 > 0:06:26the extreme wing of the Conservative movement, he has said that

0:06:26 > 0:06:30homosexuality should be illegal, that Muslims should be barred from

0:06:30 > 0:06:35serving in Congress, who has likened the Koran to Mein Kampf. Already on

0:06:35 > 0:06:39a whole load of issues he was a candidate who was pretty far out

0:06:39 > 0:06:42there and to some Republicans were already uncomfortable with.Katty

0:06:42 > 0:06:48Kay, thank you very much. Really monitoring that vote. It will be

0:06:48 > 0:06:51fascinating to get the result. We will bring that to you as and when

0:06:51 > 0:06:55we get it. Now we will turn to the French president, and Emmanuel

0:06:55 > 0:07:00Macron. He has issued a stern warning. He said the world is losing

0:07:00 > 0:07:05the battle against climate change. Now, here he is addressing around 50

0:07:05 > 0:07:08world leaders, senior ministers, prime ministers, at a climate summit

0:07:08 > 0:07:13in Paris. This is what he said. TRANSLATION:We are losing this

0:07:13 > 0:07:17battle. Those who came before us had an advantage. They could say, we

0:07:17 > 0:07:21didn't know, and it was true. But for the last 20 years or so, we've

0:07:21 > 0:07:25known, and we find out more everyday.There have been plenty of

0:07:25 > 0:07:31climate meetings in the past, as you will no doubt the call. What's

0:07:31 > 0:07:33different about this one, Lucy Williamson is in Paris, and she

0:07:33 > 0:07:36explains.One thing that is being talked about a lot at this meeting

0:07:36 > 0:07:40is transparency. The idea that companies need to be, they are under

0:07:40 > 0:07:43pressure to be more transparent about the carbon footprint of the

0:07:43 > 0:07:47business deals they do, the investments they make, and there

0:07:47 > 0:07:51have been some moves in that direction. We've also seen the World

0:07:51 > 0:07:56Bank has come out and said that as of 2019 it will not fund exploration

0:07:56 > 0:07:59for oil and gas. We've had other commitments by big energy companies

0:07:59 > 0:08:05here in Europe to do much more with renewables. One company saying it

0:08:05 > 0:08:09wants to be 100% renewable. Another French company saying it was going

0:08:09 > 0:08:13to increase solar power by four times what it provides now. I think

0:08:13 > 0:08:18we are seeing some concrete commitments by individual companies

0:08:18 > 0:08:22and organisations.Lucy Williamson. The other thing that is different

0:08:22 > 0:08:27about this climate conference is that even though this man, let me

0:08:27 > 0:08:31bring him up, there he is again, Donald Trump, he isn't present, his

0:08:31 > 0:08:36country's looming large, the lack of its presence is really, really

0:08:36 > 0:08:40tenable and visible in this climate conference. Back in June of course

0:08:40 > 0:08:45he announced that the US was pulling out of the Paris deal on combating

0:08:45 > 0:08:49climate change. And President Macron spoke a bit earlier about his

0:08:49 > 0:08:52disappointment at that decision. But also his hope that President Trump

0:08:52 > 0:08:59may change that decision.The US did sign the Paris agreement. It's

0:08:59 > 0:09:08extremely aggressive to decide on his own just to leave. And nowhere a

0:09:08 > 0:09:12to push the orders to renegotiate because one decided to leave. I'm

0:09:12 > 0:09:17sorry to say that. It doesn't fly. So, sorry, but I think it's a big

0:09:17 > 0:09:22responsibility, and I'm pretty sure that my friend President Trump will

0:09:22 > 0:09:26change his mind in the coming months or years.Optimism there are, isn't

0:09:26 > 0:09:31that? Fighting climate change isn't just about developed countries like

0:09:31 > 0:09:35France and the US. Christian Aid is one of the many charities at this

0:09:35 > 0:09:38one planet conference. And its spokesperson has said that the

0:09:38 > 0:09:43missing piece of the jigsaw is the funding to help the world poorer

0:09:43 > 0:09:47countries access clean energy so that they don't follow that fossil

0:09:47 > 0:09:49fuel powered path into the rich world. And that's something that

0:09:49 > 0:09:57I've speaking about with the World Service environment correspondent.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00There has also been criticism that France, although it has hosted this

0:10:00 > 0:10:07meeting, France is still investing in. Fuel investments. So that

0:10:07 > 0:10:12question, you know, how does it do it? That is definitely there. And

0:10:12 > 0:10:17again, it's one country that, again, we know that it happened in Paris,

0:10:17 > 0:10:21so definitely France's relation with that treaty would be quite close. It

0:10:21 > 0:10:24is its darling treaty. But again when it comes to implementation of

0:10:24 > 0:10:29that treaty. It is a huge commit huge business which has yet to be

0:10:29 > 0:10:32thrashed. It is just a vague agreement that was signed. The

0:10:32 > 0:10:36detail of how it will be implemented and who will verify that is supposed

0:10:36 > 0:10:42to happen next year, in 2018. That's when that's not passed by cracked.

0:10:42 > 0:10:47What about China? It is a huge stakeholder in this?China, on the

0:10:47 > 0:10:51home front, it has been applauded and congratulated for doing so many

0:10:51 > 0:10:56things. But again, China is elsewhere in the thing in fossil

0:10:56 > 0:11:01fuels. Many call plants elsewhere, in Africa, for instance, the

0:11:01 > 0:11:07Balkans, electricity in Bosnia. We reported on the coal industry, the

0:11:07 > 0:11:11Balkans are seeing a lot of Chinese investment. Not to forget, the China

0:11:11 > 0:11:16thing is, China has a different kind of battle with developed countries.

0:11:16 > 0:11:20What China and India, these emerging economies say, is that you,

0:11:20 > 0:11:23developed countries, you have already done your bit, you've got

0:11:23 > 0:11:27your chance to develop, now it is our turn. So you've got to make

0:11:27 > 0:11:32those massive cuts in emissions, not us. That is still there, that battle

0:11:32 > 0:11:37is still there. Last month, when they have this climate conference,

0:11:37 > 0:11:41that argument once again surfaced. And it was quite, quite serious.

0:11:41 > 0:11:43Developing countries effectively want the chance to carry on

0:11:43 > 0:11:49developing?So, it depends. For instance, if you talk about India,

0:11:49 > 0:11:54China, as I said, or even this grouping called the six, Brazil,

0:11:54 > 0:11:57South Africa, China, India, they have always had this argument.

0:11:57 > 0:12:03Again, there are some countries that they say that if they got the right

0:12:03 > 0:12:08money, the right, what is known as the technical know-how, the

0:12:08 > 0:12:12technical transfer, the knowledge transfer, then they are happy to

0:12:12 > 0:12:16change, to change gear and get into the cleaner energy. But mind you,

0:12:16 > 0:12:20there are countries that have huge deposits of coal resources, for

0:12:20 > 0:12:24instance. The own oil resources deposits. And they argue that, we

0:12:24 > 0:12:29have to use what we have, because they are cheap deposits, cheap

0:12:29 > 0:12:38resources, and it's very expensive. And then the technology transfer,

0:12:38 > 0:12:40which they expect from developed countries, it runs into trillions of

0:12:40 > 0:12:42dollars. And that is again another battle. They've always been arguing,

0:12:42 > 0:12:45can you give us that money, that technical transfer? That's the

0:12:45 > 0:12:49question. Developed countries say, we have been doing so. But

0:12:49 > 0:12:53developing countries say, no, it's been double counted, regular aid has

0:12:53 > 0:12:57been counted as climate aid, it's not happening. This was again, this

0:12:57 > 0:13:04time also we saw in Paris, and it's not going to go away any time soon.

0:13:04 > 0:13:07He is a stark warning against European governments. They are

0:13:07 > 0:13:11knowingly complicit in the torture and abuse of refugees and migrants

0:13:11 > 0:13:16in Libya. That is according to Amnesty International. As you can

0:13:16 > 0:13:24see from this map,... Let me just bring this up. This is a map that

0:13:24 > 0:13:29shows the main routes that migrants trying to reach Europe take. Now,

0:13:29 > 0:13:34the biggest orange arrows represent the biggest flow of migrants. To try

0:13:34 > 0:13:38to prevent that, Amnesty says that the European Union is actively

0:13:38 > 0:13:45supporting a system of abuse and exploitation of the Libyan coast.

0:13:45 > 0:13:49You're probably familiar with images like this. They show the Italian

0:13:49 > 0:13:53navy rescuing migrants from the Mediterranean. Well, after the EU

0:13:53 > 0:13:57started giving funding to the Libyan coast guard, the number of migrants

0:13:57 > 0:14:02actually reaching Italy has sharply dropped. But Amnesty says that the

0:14:02 > 0:14:06Libyan Coast Guard is actually working with criminal gangs who are

0:14:06 > 0:14:12guilty of a range of abuses. With the knowledge of EU officials. Now,

0:14:12 > 0:14:17this is quite difficult to see. These images were shot by the NGO

0:14:17 > 0:14:21group C watch. They were shocked last of them by. As you can just

0:14:21 > 0:14:28about make out, you can see a fight. And the NGO claims that this shows

0:14:28 > 0:14:31members of the Libyan Coast Guard punching a refugee. That refugee

0:14:31 > 0:14:37then jumps back into the water and is dragged along as the boat picks

0:14:37 > 0:14:43up speed. So, C watch says that such actions contributed to the drowning

0:14:43 > 0:14:47of around 50 people. Now, Amnesty International says that migrants

0:14:47 > 0:14:52intercepted by the Libyan cows guard are sent to detention centres like

0:14:52 > 0:14:58this one -- Libyan Coast Guard.

0:14:58 > 0:14:59Terrible conditions. this one -- Libyan Coast Guard.

0:14:59 > 0:14:59Terrible conditions. Unlawful this one -- Libyan Coast Guard.

0:14:59 > 0:15:02Terrible conditions. Unlawful killings as well. The BBC filmed in

0:15:02 > 0:15:06one of these types of centres back in September. This is how one inmate

0:15:06 > 0:15:13described it and this is how our reporter saw all of this.Here, it's

0:15:13 > 0:15:19like in hell. It's like in hell, for me. That's how I feel.This is the

0:15:19 > 0:15:23reality for those being held in detention in Libya. The men here

0:15:23 > 0:15:27have asked us to show these conditions. They are very anxious

0:15:27 > 0:15:32for all of this to be seen. This is prison by any other name. The only

0:15:32 > 0:15:37hope of release for these men is to be deported back to their home

0:15:37 > 0:15:43countries, but that can take time to arrangement some of those here have

0:15:43 > 0:15:49been languishing in this centre for six months. Orla Guerin there. The

0:15:49 > 0:15:54EU has hit back at those serious allegations. They have given a

0:15:54 > 0:16:00statement them said the situation is not bad because of the European

0:16:00 > 0:16:03Union, it's slightly better than the EU. They said...

0:16:12 > 0:16:18That EU spokesperson giving that a justification of those very...

0:16:18 > 0:16:20Against those very serious allegations. We have lots more

0:16:20 > 0:16:27coming up here on Outside Source. Stay with us. We will dive into

0:16:27 > 0:16:32Jupiter's red spot. The probe sheds like on the biggest storm in the

0:16:32 > 0:16:45solar system. We will be leave to hear the details.

0:16:45 > 0:16:49The Met Home Office has warned of icy conditions that are expected to

0:16:49 > 0:16:54persist until tomorrow. Our correspondent has this report.

0:17:20 > 0:17:22A bed of snow with freezing conditions - across parts

0:17:22 > 0:17:25of the Midlands it's not been easy, icy roads and extremely

0:17:25 > 0:17:26cold temperatures.

0:17:26 > 0:17:29For the children, though, it's been another day off school.

0:17:29 > 0:17:30We've been obviously sledging, snowball fights.

0:17:30 > 0:17:31We've been like building snowmen.

0:17:31 > 0:17:32Yeah.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Here in Shropshire, more than 200 schools were closed

0:17:34 > 0:17:36and in Gloucestershire and Herefordshire almost

0:17:36 > 0:17:37100 remained shut.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39It is pretty difficult trying to find them things to do.

0:17:39 > 0:17:41You know, keep them occupied.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43When you've got childcare issues and you're working full-time then,

0:17:43 > 0:17:46obviously, it would be disruptive to you because obviously the schools

0:17:46 > 0:17:48are closing on a day-to-day basis and you're not knowing

0:17:48 > 0:17:49until that last-minute.

0:17:49 > 0:17:51Obviously, it's very disruptive to the home.

0:17:51 > 0:17:53Well, it's bitterly cold here, the temperature is around minus four

0:17:53 > 0:17:56Celsius and there's no sign of this snow melting any time soon.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59As night falls, the temperatures are expected to plunge even further.

0:17:59 > 0:18:02We are live from the BBC News room. Voters in the US state of Alabama

0:18:02 > 0:18:04are choosing between a firebrand Republican accused of sexual

0:18:04 > 0:18:07misconduct and a Democrat seeking an upset win in Senate elections. Let's

0:18:07 > 0:18:11take a look at what stories we are covering in the BBC News room. A

0:18:11 > 0:18:19former US Sergeant who defected to North Korea and was Pyongyanged

0:18:19 > 0:18:27prisoner for years has died. That is on the BBC World Service. Man flu

0:18:27 > 0:18:32may not be a myth as many believe. Researchers in Canada suggest there

0:18:32 > 0:18:36is evidence that men suffer more than women from the symptoms of the

0:18:36 > 0:18:40common cold and they are not simply exaggerating.

0:18:44 > 0:18:48The US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has been speaking about

0:18:48 > 0:18:51his country's foreign policy, particularly towards North Korea.

0:18:51 > 0:18:58Here's some of what he had to say. ... Time is marching on with each

0:18:58 > 0:19:01additional test North Korea does demonstrate the advancement of its

0:19:01 > 0:19:08programme. The most recent inter continental missile test

0:19:08 > 0:19:11demonstrates they have capability to continue to advance their programme.

0:19:11 > 0:19:16We would expect they are doing the same on other elements of an

0:19:16 > 0:19:18integrated nuclear weapon system. Rex Tillerson speaking about North

0:19:18 > 0:19:25Korea. Our correspondent is at the US State Department for us. Barbara,

0:19:25 > 0:19:29does Rex Tillerson think North Korea has the ability to put a nuclear

0:19:29 > 0:19:36weapon on a missile?I don't think he was specifically declaring that

0:19:36 > 0:19:41is the case. He was talking about the seriousness of the threat.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45Ultimately the administration might decide it might need a military

0:19:45 > 0:19:50response. His whole line during the speech and previously was that he

0:19:50 > 0:19:53was exercising diplomacied and he said he would do that until the

0:19:53 > 0:19:56first bomb dropped, if it did. He had earlier talked about progress.

0:19:56 > 0:20:02He said he believed he had made progress in his campaign to win

0:20:02 > 0:20:04international support to isolate Pyongyang in a way it had not been

0:20:04 > 0:20:10isolated before. He said he was reaching the zenith of all his

0:20:10 > 0:20:14efforts. That wasn't a victory. The North Koreans were working on their

0:20:14 > 0:20:18weapons, developing and testing them he said he hoped they would change

0:20:18 > 0:20:21course because if they didn't the diplomatic community wouldn't be

0:20:21 > 0:20:25able to do anything else. If that was the case he would take it as a

0:20:25 > 0:20:32personal failure. He also has said if he hands over to the Secretary of

0:20:32 > 0:20:36Defence he is can department he will succeed in whatever he does. He he

0:20:36 > 0:20:39was outlining there that the US policy is diplomacy. What he is

0:20:39 > 0:20:43doing is working in the sense, getting support fo it, but the

0:20:43 > 0:20:47threat is growing.He also gave an internal speech at the State

0:20:47 > 0:20:53Department. What did he say?Yes. That was long overdue, actually, I

0:20:53 > 0:20:58think. He talked about his efforts to redesign the State Department.

0:20:58 > 0:21:02There hasn't been very much information for the past months and

0:21:02 > 0:21:06has caused anxiety here because it's accompanied by steep budget cuts. So

0:21:06 > 0:21:13he outlined in more detail than ever before what he is after, in terms of

0:21:13 > 0:21:19revamping the information technology which is outdated. He talked about

0:21:19 > 0:21:22streamlining functions, including policy process and how careers are

0:21:22 > 0:21:26managed. Immediate changes could be made, he called them quick win that

0:21:26 > 0:21:30is would make work easier for employees. I watched, he got

0:21:30 > 0:21:37applause from time to time. I went and did a straw poll afterwards, a

0:21:37 > 0:21:41thumbs up and thumbs down because people don't want to speak publicly.

0:21:41 > 0:21:46I got more thumbs up. People who feel more positive are more likely

0:21:46 > 0:21:51to respond. There is frustration about his management's style.

0:21:51 > 0:21:55Scepticism about where the project is going. It's a communication

0:21:55 > 0:21:59problem to a degree, what he is doing hasn't been effectively

0:21:59 > 0:22:04communicated. He has been able to hire a senior communications

0:22:04 > 0:22:08official talking about a broad and comprehensive Strang gill going

0:22:08 > 0:22:15forward. We will see how that plays out.Thank you. Some business news.

0:22:15 > 0:22:19The world's biggest social media site, Facebook, is making changes to

0:22:19 > 0:22:24the way it records where it makes its money. Up until now it has been

0:22:24 > 0:22:27routing its earnings via its headquarters in Ireland. It will

0:22:27 > 0:22:32book the income where it is earned. What does this mean? Dave the

0:22:32 > 0:22:38question we want to know is - will Facebook pay more in taxes?Good

0:22:38 > 0:22:42question. We won't know that until perhaps this time next year when we

0:22:42 > 0:22:46have had a year's worth of this change. The reason why it's not

0:22:46 > 0:22:50obvious if they will pay more tax it's simply because even though they

0:22:50 > 0:22:54are going to be booking those earnings in countries outside of

0:22:54 > 0:23:01Ireland, which previously didn't do, it funneled all of its ad recipe

0:23:01 > 0:23:04knews into Ireland where there is a low-tax rate for them. It will pay

0:23:04 > 0:23:08more tax on those it will invest in different areas next year in

0:23:08 > 0:23:12expanding what it does, particularly when it comes to adding more human

0:23:12 > 0:23:18employees to monitor content on Facebook. What that means is they

0:23:18 > 0:23:22may be able to offset tax in different areas. This change may not

0:23:22 > 0:23:26have a big impact on its overall rate of tax that it is paying and

0:23:26 > 0:23:30the amount of tax it pays as a result. A tricky one. May not make

0:23:30 > 0:23:33too big a difference in practical terms.Dave, as always, thank you

0:23:33 > 0:23:40very much there. Dave Lee in San Francisco, thank you. Bike sharing

0:23:40 > 0:23:44has grown massively around the world, including in Australia where

0:23:44 > 0:23:47it hasn't all been smooth sailing.

0:24:10 > 0:24:14Just lying down all over the place. It's all a bit of a I think it's

0:24:14 > 0:24:17mess.A good idea. I don't think it's going to work. People here have

0:24:17 > 0:24:22their own bikes if they ride.People are kind of like trolling the

0:24:22 > 0:24:29system. They have thrown their bikes... It's a bit of a problem.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45They are park beinged where they have left. Pushed over in the side

0:24:45 > 0:24:49of the road, in the gutter. Major issued. They are uncontrolled. They

0:24:49 > 0:24:52need to be operating in a better way.

0:25:08 > 0:25:13Based on experience from other countries, it normally takes six to

0:25:13 > 0:25:1912 months for people to get used to it and enjoy the service. It's a

0:25:19 > 0:25:23service that's good for people. It's convenient for people, it's

0:25:23 > 0:25:26healthier and greener. A lot of people don't understand that is why

0:25:26 > 0:25:30it will take a little bit of time.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41You can see those schemes increasingly in cities. There is one

0:25:41 > 0:25:45in London. Never seen a bike left upside down. Let us know what you

0:25:45 > 0:25:53think. You can get in touch with me and the team. Thank you for watching
