0:00:08 > 0:00:12Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.
0:00:12 > 0:00:16President Trump's first State of the Union address is hours away.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20The White House says it'll unite the nation.
0:00:21 > 0:00:25We can be pretty sure it won't but we can look at what to expect.
0:00:25 > 0:00:28After the Larry Nassar scandal, Congress passes a bill to make sure
0:00:28 > 0:00:30athletes are protected from sexual abuse in the future.
0:00:30 > 0:00:39We will get details on that. It has been a surreal day in Kenya. That is
0:00:39 > 0:00:43the opposition leader being sworn in as president. Despite the fact he
0:00:43 > 0:00:46lost the election last year and is not the president.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49A big change is coming to US healthcare and Amazon
0:00:49 > 0:00:51is leading the way.
0:00:51 > 0:00:54It is setting up a company that will provide health care for its
0:00:54 > 0:01:02employees. We will be live in New York to find out about that.
0:01:13 > 0:01:16In five hours, Donald Trump will deliver his first State of the Union
0:01:16 > 0:01:17address to Congress.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20The White House is promising "a speech that resonates
0:01:20 > 0:01:26with our American values and unites us with patriotism."
0:01:26 > 0:01:28Unfortunately for American politicians, none of them managed to
0:01:28 > 0:01:36unite the nation these days. That seems unlikely.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39But it will see the President plot the year ahead.
0:01:39 > 0:01:44Expect immigration, jobs and infrastructure to feature.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Last February, just after he'd taken office, we had a big set piece
0:01:47 > 0:01:48speech from the President.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50Let's see how time has treated these moments.
0:01:50 > 0:01:59Make America great again. The time has come for a new programme of
0:01:59 > 0:02:03national rebuilding. And going to bring back millions of jobs,
0:02:03 > 0:02:11protecting our workers also means reforming our system of legal
0:02:11 > 0:02:16immigration. And we will soon begin the construction of a great, great
0:02:16 > 0:02:23Wall along our southern border. We will provide massive tax relief
0:02:23 > 0:02:29for the middle-class. One of the largest increases in national
0:02:29 > 0:02:35defence spending in American history. I believe strongly in free
0:02:35 > 0:02:40trade, but it also has to be fair trade. The time for trivial fights
0:02:40 > 0:02:45is behind us.
0:02:45 > 0:02:50At the time last February, we turned to our correspondent in Washington.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54Let's do the same for his assessment of the president has done one year
0:02:54 > 0:03:01on.Obviously, he set out a very ambitious programme there and a lot
0:03:01 > 0:03:05has not been realised. Tax cuts to was the end of the year but that
0:03:05 > 0:03:10border wall has not yet been realised. Immigration changes has
0:03:10 > 0:03:14been the subject of a lot of debate recently but does not happen get.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Their first major agenda item last year ended up being health care
0:03:18 > 0:03:24reform. As you recall, that was dramatically reformed and the Senate
0:03:24 > 0:03:28managed to chip away at it. Americans care about the health
0:03:28 > 0:03:33system most at the moment. It'll be interesting to see if it takes
0:03:33 > 0:03:36another whack at it. I have a feeling we will about
0:03:36 > 0:03:41infrastructure, immigration and a lot of both about the economy. The
0:03:41 > 0:03:44consensus is his underperforming as far as popularity goes with how good
0:03:44 > 0:03:51the US economy is right now.Are we going to get detail? Is that what
0:03:51 > 0:03:53the State of the Union address is four or is it about the big
0:03:53 > 0:03:58messages?It is usually about the big message. Bill Clinton, when he
0:03:58 > 0:04:02gave State of the Union addresses in the 1990s, the reputation of coming
0:04:02 > 0:04:08out with wanderlust and almost too many details. -- with a laundry
0:04:08 > 0:04:18list. Obama was much loftier and set broad frameworks. I think you will
0:04:18 > 0:04:22be a lot of Trump trying to drum up his accomplishments, particularly
0:04:22 > 0:04:25about infrastructure. But I don't think we will need anything to
0:04:25 > 0:04:31concrete about policy. There is a danger in spelling things out in a
0:04:31 > 0:04:35speech like this because then it can be picked over by reporters and
0:04:35 > 0:04:40critics very quickly in the disaster.Don't go anywhere,
0:04:40 > 0:04:43Anthony. A couple of other things to talk about. Lots of people have been
0:04:43 > 0:04:48showing these images of the ticket given to some people invited to the
0:04:48 > 0:05:00State of the Union. It had a typo in it and said State of the Uniom. Lots
0:05:00 > 0:05:17of people having fun with this. Let me show you Joe Kennedy III. He is
0:05:17 > 0:05:26the nephew of John F K, present in the 1960s. You can secede the
0:05:26 > 0:05:34position of belly sandals online. -- you can see the position of Bernie
0:05:34 > 0:05:41Sanders online. It is not particularly unusual early
0:05:41 > 0:05:45in the election cycle if we are already talking about 2020. This
0:05:45 > 0:05:52type of people start to emerge after mid-term elections. As far as
0:05:52 > 0:05:54congressional leaders, you're Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi who have
0:05:54 > 0:06:00been around for a long time. Which is why I think you see someone like
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Kennedy taking up the mantle, being pushed forward before the cameras
0:06:03 > 0:06:09because he is young, charismatic, he will give his speech from a
0:06:09 > 0:06:12blue-collar, working-class town in Massachusetts. A lot of these
0:06:12 > 0:06:16responses are trying to frame how the opposition party wants America
0:06:16 > 0:06:22to see that party. I think it is pretty clear that the Democrats want
0:06:22 > 0:06:25to put the younger face out there and show vitality. But they are
0:06:25 > 0:06:29going to have an economic message. They think that is what is going to
0:06:29 > 0:06:34be winning in the midterms in 2018. Robert Mueller, the man leading the
0:06:34 > 0:06:37investigation into the alleged Russian interference in the
0:06:37 > 0:06:40election, we will see if Mr Trump mentions him. But he certainly came
0:06:40 > 0:06:44up in a conversation between the BBC's Security correspondent and the
0:06:44 > 0:06:51head of the CIA. Here's how some of that interview went.
0:06:51 > 0:06:56I haven't seen significant decreases in their activity.Do you have
0:06:56 > 0:06:58concerns that they might try and interfere in the US midterms coming
0:06:58 > 0:07:03up?Of course. I have every expectation that they will continue
0:07:03 > 0:07:06to try and do that but I am confident that America will be able
0:07:06 > 0:07:10to have a free and fair election. They will push back in a way that is
0:07:10 > 0:07:13sufficiently robust, that the impact they have on our election will not
0:07:13 > 0:07:19be great.Do you ever find yourself having to walk a fine line with a
0:07:19 > 0:07:22president who has said that talk about Russian, particularly
0:07:22 > 0:07:25collision, is fake news and an agency that has said there were
0:07:25 > 0:07:31attempts in 2016 to influence the election?I don't do fine lines. I
0:07:31 > 0:07:37do the truth. We deliver nearly every day, personally, to the
0:07:37 > 0:07:42president, the most exquisite truth that we now in the CIA.What is he
0:07:42 > 0:07:49like in those meetings? Does he ask questions, inquisitive?Yes, hard
0:07:49 > 0:07:53questions. He's very focused in the sense that he is curious about the
0:07:53 > 0:07:58fact that we present.A recent book, which I'm sure you're aware of,
0:07:58 > 0:08:01suggested the president was not quite up to 20 might not have the
0:08:01 > 0:08:05faculties. What is your response to that as someone who sits in the room
0:08:05 > 0:08:10with him on many mornings?It's absurd. I haven't read the book and
0:08:10 > 0:08:13they don't intend to. I have many better things to read. Things that
0:08:13 > 0:08:19are accurate and truthful. The claim that the President isn't engaged and
0:08:19 > 0:08:23doesn't have a grasp on these important issues is dangerous and
0:08:23 > 0:08:29false. And it saddens me that someone would have taken the time to
0:08:29 > 0:08:34write such a thing. Anthony, it is always remarkable to
0:08:34 > 0:08:39me that someone like the head of the CIA can be so loyal to someone like
0:08:39 > 0:08:43Donald Trump when they clearly have quite different approaches to facts
0:08:43 > 0:08:49and things that aren't true.Right. To say that it is a fine line that
0:08:49 > 0:08:52he has to walk is an understatement because he has been very clear from
0:08:52 > 0:08:58the get go that he believes, and the agency he has believes, that rush
0:08:58 > 0:09:04attempt to meddle in the 2016 election. And in politics and other
0:09:04 > 0:09:08Western democracies, and that they are not done yet. As he mentioned,
0:09:08 > 0:09:11you see Donald Trump calling the investigation itself a witchhunt. It
0:09:11 > 0:09:14will be curious to see if he mentions, Trump mentions this at all
0:09:14 > 0:09:19in his speech tonight. It would be very risky to bring it up but he has
0:09:19 > 0:09:21been very open about his criticisms of Robert Mueller's investigation
0:09:21 > 0:09:27now four months. Usually heard an increasing drumbeat from Republicans
0:09:27 > 0:09:33in Congress, watching Trump speak, about what they see as biased in the
0:09:33 > 0:09:37investigation. The head of the CIA is more enjoyed from that. He
0:09:37 > 0:09:40continues to take his line but that is not the direction the party
0:09:40 > 0:09:44itself seems to be heading right now.
0:09:44 > 0:09:47Just last week, US gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar was sentenced
0:09:47 > 0:09:51to 175 years in prison for abusing more than 150 victims,
0:09:51 > 0:09:58many of them young Olympic hopefuls.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00Now American politicians are trying to make sure that
0:10:00 > 0:10:02cannot happen again.
0:10:02 > 0:10:05The House has sped up a bill requiring governing athletics
0:10:05 > 0:10:09bodies to promptly report sexual abuse claims.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11The bill passed with a huge majority.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13It was sponsored by Senator Dianne Feinstein,
0:10:13 > 0:10:14who first met with some
0:10:14 > 0:10:16of Larry Nasser's victims last February, and that's
0:10:16 > 0:10:22what motivated this bill.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27We spoke for more than an hour. We talked about what happened to them
0:10:27 > 0:10:35and how USA Gymnastics and the adult charged with protecting them failed
0:10:35 > 0:10:40at every single term. The meeting made clear that USA Gymnastics was
0:10:40 > 0:10:45fostering a culture that put money and medals first, far ahead of the
0:10:45 > 0:10:50safety and well-being of athletes.
0:10:50 > 0:10:56I wanted to understand what this bill changes in terms of process. We
0:10:56 > 0:10:58ask their correspondent in Washington to help.Some of the main
0:10:58 > 0:11:04points to take away from this... The first is that if anyone reports
0:11:04 > 0:11:10abuse to an amateur athletics Association, then under this bill,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13it would now require that athletics Association to report that abuse to
0:11:13 > 0:11:19the local police. And they have to do that within 24 hours. What has
0:11:19 > 0:11:24been a concern by many gymnasts is that if they go to someone, whether
0:11:24 > 0:11:28USA Gymnastics or a local court, often their concerns have been put
0:11:28 > 0:11:31under the rug and ignored. These women in many cases have not even
0:11:31 > 0:11:35been believed. Now there is a compulsion that if a complaint is
0:11:35 > 0:11:38made, these people have to deal with it and they have to go to the
0:11:38 > 0:11:42police. The other two things worth noting as well is that this will
0:11:42 > 0:11:47would restrict and limit one-on-one contact that these young athletes
0:11:47 > 0:11:51have with people older than them. Larry Nassar treated a lot of his
0:11:51 > 0:11:58patients under the guise... Of course, they ended up being abused
0:11:58 > 0:12:01and ended up being survivors of his abuse but he treated them a lot of
0:12:01 > 0:12:05the time on his own. People were unable to see exactly what went on.
0:12:05 > 0:12:09They want to limit one-on-one interactions. The other thing that I
0:12:09 > 0:12:11thought was interesting was that this bill would extend the statute
0:12:11 > 0:12:15of limitations, the time that people have to actually report complaints
0:12:15 > 0:12:20of abuse or rape. That is significant because in the case of
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Larry Nassar and his victims, many were too young to fully understand
0:12:24 > 0:12:27what was happening to them. And it took years for many of them to
0:12:27 > 0:12:33action process what had happened and realise that they had been violated.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35So, and others law, the statute of limitations would mean that they
0:12:35 > 0:12:39have more time and they would be able to report these crimes a lot
0:12:39 > 0:12:42later, when they were able to understand what had happened to
0:12:42 > 0:12:46them. So some big, significant changes there and it has been
0:12:46 > 0:12:50welcomed by some of the gymnasts and met at that event today.Don't go
0:12:50 > 0:12:54anywhere. I also want to mention that some of the victims were
0:12:54 > 0:12:57present with the senator when she made her speech. Here is the former
0:12:57 > 0:13:06gymnast and one of those who was abused.In order to uncover how the
0:13:06 > 0:13:11USOC, USA G and Michigan State University field young athletes, we
0:13:11 > 0:13:19need to be first transparent. -- failed young athletes. We can then
0:13:19 > 0:13:23understand how such a heinous crime went under the radar for so many
0:13:23 > 0:13:28years. There must be a thorough investigation. Time is not on site.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29We must act now time is up.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Rajini Vaidyanathan is with me.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36We have talked about this before but it is harder to be struck by the
0:13:36 > 0:13:40eloquence and power of the words used by some of the woman got up in
0:13:40 > 0:13:43this horrific case. There is an option for them to become
0:13:43 > 0:13:46campaigners and almost public figures if they choose to do so. Do
0:13:46 > 0:13:51you think some of them are minded to do that?That is exactly what I
0:13:51 > 0:13:54asked them when I spoke to them earlier today. Many of them are
0:13:54 > 0:13:58still trying to process what exactly happened. Remember, at least after
0:13:58 > 0:14:03the sentencing hearing, it was around 90 young woman who signed up
0:14:03 > 0:14:07to deliver the testimony in person or through written statements. But
0:14:07 > 0:14:11every day, more than more women came forward, saying they wanted to waive
0:14:11 > 0:14:15anonymity and share their stories right in front of their abuser. And
0:14:15 > 0:14:21so by the end of it, 156 women shared their stories. It became this
0:14:21 > 0:14:24huge movement, in a way, and many of them are trying to work out how they
0:14:24 > 0:14:28can channel what they have achieved into something greater. But I was
0:14:28 > 0:14:32struck by one thing. I ash trees women, what think you achieved? Two
0:14:32 > 0:14:37of them said to me, they are ambience, they said that even though
0:14:37 > 0:14:40they were Olympians, they never felt proud of their gymnastics career on
0:14:40 > 0:14:43achievements because they knew that that was in the context of the fact
0:14:43 > 0:14:48that they had been abused by Larry Nassar. And now because of this
0:14:48 > 0:14:50movement, they finally feel that they have something they can be
0:14:50 > 0:14:54proud of. That is really sad in a way depressing all those
0:14:54 > 0:15:01achievements were marred by the fact that for so long, this Doctor was
0:15:01 > 0:15:04able to abuse so many young women. They now feel that they have a voice
0:15:04 > 0:15:08and we will be watching to see what they do with that.And of course
0:15:08 > 0:15:12they have much to be proud of. Thank you very much for explaining that.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16In a few minutes, we come to West Africa because Liberia's new
0:15:16 > 0:15:20president has given his first State of the Union address. He says he
0:15:20 > 0:15:23wants to change the country's citizenship laws, which he says are
0:15:23 > 0:15:31races. -- racist. We will explain why.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33The four ringleaders of the Hatton Garden jewellery raid
0:15:33 > 0:15:36in central London have been told to pay a total of
0:15:36 > 0:15:38£27.5 million.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41A judge will extend their jail terms by seven years
0:15:41 > 0:15:47if they don't pay the money, as Dan Johnson reports.
0:15:47 > 0:15:54It is three years since this rate in the Easter holiday in 2015. It was
0:15:54 > 0:15:59an additions burglary, described as the largest in English legal
0:15:59 > 0:16:03history. The gang were he ever two Max Stelling gold, jewels and cash
0:16:03 > 0:16:10estimated to be worth £13.7 million. Today in court, or all -- they heard
0:16:10 > 0:16:15how much they must pay back. The court heard John Collins, 77, has
0:16:15 > 0:16:23assets in this country and abroad and must now pay £7.7 million.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Daniel Jones, who is 63, was ordered to pay 6.6 million.
0:16:25 > 0:16:26Terry Perkins, 69, 6.5 million.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29And Brian Reader, the oldest member of the gang,
0:16:29 > 0:16:31who is now 78 years old, was told he must pay
0:16:31 > 0:16:34back £6.6 million.
0:16:39 > 0:16:44This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.
0:16:44 > 0:16:50President Trump's first State of the Union address is hours away.
0:16:50 > 0:16:55The White House says he'll unite the nation.
0:16:55 > 0:16:58Let's turn to some of the main stories from BBC World Service. BBC
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Arabic reports...
0:17:01 > 0:17:03Yemeni separatists are reported to be in almost full control
0:17:03 > 0:17:06of the port city of Aden, the seat of the internationally
0:17:06 > 0:17:08recognised government.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11They have taken up positions around the presidential palace,
0:17:11 > 0:17:13but have not entered the compound, apparently to allow
0:17:13 > 0:17:15negotiations to take place.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Ireland will hold a referendum on whether to liberalise
0:17:18 > 0:17:20its strict abortion laws.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23The Irish Cabinet has agreed to hold a vote at the end of May,
0:17:23 > 0:17:26giving voters the first opportunity in 35 years to overhaul some
0:17:26 > 0:17:29of the world's strictest laws.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32The Irish Prime Minister said there must be an end to women having
0:17:32 > 0:17:42to travel abroad for a termination.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Liberia's new President George Weah wants to remove what he is calling
0:17:46 > 0:17:48a "racist" clause in the constitution which restricts
0:17:48 > 0:17:52citizenship to black people.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56Racist being his word.
0:17:56 > 0:18:02Liberia was founded in 1847 - and its constitution defines black
0:18:02 > 0:18:05people in the language of the time as "persons who are Negroes
0:18:05 > 0:18:08or of Negro descent".
0:18:08 > 0:18:10We can bring in Tamasin Ford from BBC Africa
0:18:10 > 0:18:14in neighbouring Ivory Coast.
0:18:14 > 0:18:23You were very recently in Liberia for their victory. Why has he chosen
0:18:23 > 0:18:29this issue to go so strongly on at the beginning of his presidency?It
0:18:29 > 0:18:33has made headlines. He has been president of Liberia just over a
0:18:33 > 0:18:36week and already making headlines around the world. This is a clause
0:18:36 > 0:18:43that has pulled Liberians to and fro for years now. It comes up every
0:18:43 > 0:18:47year, many people thinking it should be scrapped and others say, no, this
0:18:47 > 0:18:53is our founding fathers who decided this rule. It is all about the
0:18:53 > 0:18:58history of Liberia, which was founded in the 40s and at a time
0:18:58 > 0:19:02when slavery was rife around the world. And these were former slaves
0:19:02 > 0:19:07who were given a plot of land in West Africa. And to protect their
0:19:07 > 0:19:11identity, they wrote his claws into the constitution, which the
0:19:11 > 0:19:18president now says is not applicable. And in 2018, in his
0:19:18 > 0:19:22speech, he called a racist and said it has no place in our society. As
0:19:22 > 0:19:27well as that, other similar rules he has overturned on the constitution
0:19:27 > 0:19:33is the jewel citizenship rule. Another one that was about
0:19:33 > 0:19:36protecting Liberian nationality and citizens. He says that also has no
0:19:36 > 0:19:43place in Liberian society and many people who do have dual citizenship
0:19:43 > 0:19:46were forced to take on another country's citizenship during the
0:19:46 > 0:19:50war. He once was able to come home. This is all about the president
0:19:50 > 0:19:54making big moves in the first week of office.And you certainly doing
0:19:54 > 0:19:57that. Let's bring up the map of West Africa, where we have highlighted
0:19:57 > 0:20:02some of the neighbouring countries. None of them have laws like this. If
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Liberia falls in line with them, we know that one group in particular
0:20:05 > 0:20:09will notice. There is a community of Lebanese-owned boat mac, about 4000
0:20:09 > 0:20:20and Liberia. -- at committee of Lebanese, about 4000 in Liberia.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24They have a long history in South Africa. This community is keen for
0:20:24 > 0:20:29this to go through?The Lebanese community are huge right along the
0:20:29 > 0:20:35West African coast. You can see the differences. In the Ivory Coast, you
0:20:35 > 0:20:41can see at a football match, the Lebanese are in the stands, speaking
0:20:41 > 0:20:49French, mixing with others. In Liberia, it is very common to find a
0:20:49 > 0:20:56third-generation who speaks no English. It is very different
0:20:56 > 0:21:00because they have never been given citizenship. I went into an old
0:21:00 > 0:21:04man's shop. He must have been in his 70s or 80s, he was Lebanese. He
0:21:04 > 0:21:10said, this country doesn't think of me as one of their own. I have lived
0:21:10 > 0:21:14here for more than 50 years. My grandchildren live here, my children
0:21:14 > 0:21:18live here yet I still have to go to the immigration office every year to
0:21:18 > 0:21:22buy my residency permit. This will affect the huge community in
0:21:22 > 0:21:28Liberia. Let's keep an eye on that with your
0:21:28 > 0:21:35help, please. Thank you. This is a very interesting story. Shares of
0:21:35 > 0:21:38health care companies in the US has fallen. The reason is that Amazon,
0:21:38 > 0:21:43JP Morgan Chase and an investment company are forming their own health
0:21:43 > 0:21:51care firm which will look after their American employees.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55Yogita Limaye is in New York for us.
0:21:55 > 0:22:00This is just for their employees, no-one else?That is what they have
0:22:00 > 0:22:03initially set out. The details are very sparse. This was not an
0:22:03 > 0:22:12amendment anyone here expected. Three of America's biggest private
0:22:12 > 0:22:28performers and two very big business leaders. Jeff Beazer 's -- Jeff
0:22:28 > 0:22:31Bezos and Warren Buffett coming together to reduce costs for
0:22:31 > 0:22:35employees. Together, they employ hundreds of thousands of people. The
0:22:35 > 0:22:38reason we have seen this kind of impact on the stock market is that
0:22:38 > 0:22:43if the employee 500,000 people, the number of people in all of America
0:22:43 > 0:22:48covered by insurance, which the company splits the cost of, is about
0:22:48 > 0:22:531.6 million. You can imagine that that is a large... They employ a
0:22:53 > 0:22:56large chunk of that number. Therefore, if they are able to
0:22:56 > 0:23:00effectively, with some solution for this high price of health care, you
0:23:00 > 0:23:05can see that impacting other players in the health care sector.But just
0:23:05 > 0:23:09so that I am clear, these companies would look to broker health care for
0:23:09 > 0:23:11their employees and would not actually be running hospitals or
0:23:11 > 0:23:16providing the health care. Is that right?It doesn't seem to be the
0:23:16 > 0:23:23situation. As I said, the details... There are hardly any details of what
0:23:23 > 0:23:26exactly this company can do. In fact, Warren Buffett has come out
0:23:26 > 0:23:30and said, this is a problem. We don't come to this with any answers
0:23:30 > 0:23:35but together we will try and find an answer. The suggestion does not seem
0:23:35 > 0:23:40to be that they will actually set up hospitals. And they will be brokers.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44But that could be expanded as a business as well if they wanted to,
0:23:44 > 0:23:47not just for employees but other people outside.I would like to know
0:23:47 > 0:23:53more about this when we get it. Thank you very much indeed.

0:25:19 > 0:25:23can be a very, very challenging experience. One way in, though, is
0:25:23 > 0:25:29this. This ad for Thomas Cook's China business is offering

0:31:16 > 0:31:18It looks at three scenarios across 15 years, none of them

0:31:36 > 0:31:46growth down by 2%.
0:31:52 > 0:31:54I want to mention these are forecasts.
0:31:54 > 0:31:59All of which means more pressure on Theresa May as she tries

0:32:02 > 0:32:03Here are some MPs today.
0:32:03 > 0:32:07At this early stage, it only considers off-the-shelf trade
0:32:07 > 0:32:11arrangements that currently exist, we have been clear that these are
0:32:11 > 0:32:17not what we are seeking in the negotiations, it does not yet
0:32:17 > 0:32:20consider the desired outcome, the most ambitious relationship possible
0:32:20 > 0:32:25with the European Union.Stop pretending this is something to do
0:32:25 > 0:32:29with defending the negotiating position, or that somehow this is
0:32:29 > 0:32:35some perverse attempt to reverse the referendum and access, he has failed
0:32:35 > 0:32:40to protect the government from political embarrassment.It is a
0:32:40 > 0:32:44right of the public to know about their livelihoods and their future
0:32:44 > 0:32:47and for the government not to publish this is deeply irresponsible
0:32:47 > 0:32:49and dishonest.
0:32:49 > 0:32:53Eleanor Garnier, Westminster.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56I remember standing in Downing Street a couple of days after the
0:32:56 > 0:33:01election, talking about how strong or weak Theresa May's position was,
0:33:01 > 0:33:06feels like every week brings a new challenge to her authority?What is
0:33:06 > 0:33:10so interesting about this row and why it has become so acrimonious is
0:33:10 > 0:33:13because there are accusations flying around that this paper has been
0:33:13 > 0:33:19leaked deliberately to undermine Brexit. Not only that, it is being
0:33:19 > 0:33:23suggested that those close to the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, or
0:33:23 > 0:33:27people who share the same views as him when it comes to Brexit could be
0:33:27 > 0:33:33behind this. I think the worry from some who support the Leave side the
0:33:33 > 0:33:36argument is that the Prime Minister might be coming round to the
0:33:36 > 0:33:46Chancellor's way of thinking when it comes to Brexit. Last week he said
0:33:46 > 0:33:52the UK should move only modestly from the EU when it leaves, that was
0:33:52 > 0:33:59a red rag to the Brexit balls, and it comes to something when you have
0:33:59 > 0:34:03ministers throwing around accusations about why documents have
0:34:03 > 0:34:07been leaked. -- Brexit bulls. It shows there is problems at the top
0:34:07 > 0:34:10of the Conservative Party, not just in the Cabinet.Take us through
0:34:10 > 0:34:16this, if the Prime Minister were to favour a softer form of Brexit, that
0:34:16 > 0:34:20may upset some of the big beasts who campaign for Brexit to have the
0:34:20 > 0:34:23power to pull the rug from under her?When we talk about soft Brexit,
0:34:23 > 0:34:29we talk about having a closer relationship with the EU, perhaps
0:34:29 > 0:34:32staying in the single market, staying in the customs union. We
0:34:32 > 0:34:36know the government has completely written off those two possibilities,
0:34:36 > 0:34:41so it comes down to what kind of relationship the government can
0:34:41 > 0:34:44negotiate with Brussels as you were touching on, the reason these rows
0:34:44 > 0:34:50keep coming, keep leaking out of Cabinet, is because Theresa May and
0:34:50 > 0:34:54her Cabinet have not yet decided what kind of relationship they want
0:34:54 > 0:34:58to have with Brussels, they have not decided on that end state
0:34:58 > 0:35:02relationship and I think until Theresa May does decide what exactly
0:35:02 > 0:35:07she wants from Brussels, these arguments will keep coming and she
0:35:07 > 0:35:11will continue to face pressure from different sides in her party over
0:35:11 > 0:35:15which way she should go, and that is where we get talk of leadership
0:35:15 > 0:35:19issues and interestingly it is not just been about Brexit in the last
0:35:19 > 0:35:27few days, concerns have been raised privately, about Theresa May and the
0:35:27 > 0:35:31domestic agenda, a sense that some in her party thing she needs to have
0:35:31 > 0:35:38more direction and more oomph when it comes to domestic policy. That is
0:35:38 > 0:35:40why Theresa May finds herself in a tricky position, could be at either
0:35:40 > 0:35:45end of a party that eventually pulls the rug from under her feet, if that
0:35:45 > 0:35:51is going to happen at all.
0:35:51 > 0:35:54Those of you watching in the UK will know this but it is worth
0:35:54 > 0:35:59emphasising again, Theresa May and her Cabinet still have not set out a
0:35:59 > 0:36:06detailed sketch of what they want Brexit to beat, those conversations
0:36:06 > 0:36:10still to come even though we are in the middle of the negotiations.
0:36:10 > 0:36:15Turning from Westminster, to Columbia.
0:36:15 > 0:36:19This is a group of young Colombians who filed a lawsuit against the
0:36:19 > 0:36:22government, demanding that they protect their rights to a healthy
0:36:22 > 0:36:30environment. The youngest is seven, the oldest is 26, they have put out
0:36:30 > 0:36:32a statement:
0:36:49 > 0:36:54this is worthy of note, first action of its kind in Latin America,
0:36:54 > 0:36:57interestingly, we have seen cases like this elsewhere, in Oregon, in

0:37:03 > 0:37:07get full details of this online, for failing to address climate change.
0:37:07 > 0:37:13The Trump administration failed to block that case, it has not been
0:37:13 > 0:37:18resolved one way or the other. In the Netherlands in 2014, a court
0:37:18 > 0:37:22ordered the government is to reduce carbon emissions by 25%. You can get
0:37:22 > 0:37:27the full story on the BBC news website, that was brought by 900

0:38:10 > 0:38:17lawsuit have the power to tell the government what to do.This legal
0:38:17 > 0:38:23action has the power to guarantee young people in Colombia their
0:38:23 > 0:38:32rights. One thing is the right to live and the right to wellness.
0:38:32 > 0:38:39These people are demanding their future on that basis.What does the
0:38:39 > 0:38:45government think about this?The government is still not responding
0:38:45 > 0:38:53to the real election, the judge had ten days to rule in favour or
0:38:53 > 0:39:00against the legal action.We have seen the consequences of climate
0:39:00 > 0:39:05change affecting some countries, can we say climate change is already
0:39:05 > 0:39:12affecting people in Colombia?Well, deforestation of the Colombian
0:39:12 > 0:39:18Amazon has increased and is endangering 40% of the forest in the
0:39:18 > 0:39:24whole country. It is also a danger for the ecosystem across the
0:39:24 > 0:39:33country.When will we find out if the lawsuit is successful?In ten
0:39:33 > 0:39:47days, a judge has to pronounce in favour or against the legal action
0:39:47 > 0:39:51in four days we will go back.The state of the union address is coming
0:39:51 > 0:39:56up in foreign half hours, you can see it on BBC World News, and on the

0:40:35 > 0:40:36This was earlier in Nairobi.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Thousands of people turned out to see and support Raila Odinga.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Remember, the background to this is that the first Kenyan election
0:40:41 > 0:40:43last year was annulled because of irregularities
0:40:43 > 0:40:53and then Odinga boycotted the second.
0:40:58 > 0:41:10This is the moment he saw himself in. He was told this could be
0:41:10 > 0:41:13treasonous, did not stop him, if Kenyans wanted to watch this and had
0:41:13 > 0:41:17not turned up, it was hard to do on television, they had to do it
0:41:17 > 0:41:21online, three television channels got taken off air, this is Citizen
0:41:21 > 0:41:30TV, simply says, no signal, and after a while, telling viewers:
0:41:31 > 0:41:34stations claiming that the government interrupted them, which
0:41:34 > 0:41:39is rare, if not completely unusual in tenure. Let's remind you, this is
0:41:39 > 0:41:44all rooted in the issue of legitimacy, in the second election,
0:41:44 > 0:41:51the opponent got 98% because Raila Odinga was not in it. The turnout
0:41:51 > 0:41:56was also low, it has been claimed that this was not a legitimate
0:41:56 > 0:42:01election, although the court system in can you has decided that Uhuru
0:42:01 > 0:42:08Kenyatta is definitely the president and here is more analysis.
0:42:08 > 0:42:14This day was expected, people waited with anticipation on the support of
0:42:14 > 0:42:16their opposition coalition, also a degree of fear from the rest of the
0:42:16 > 0:42:25country. Especially given that it is a very controversial matter. They
0:42:25 > 0:42:29have said it would be treasonous. However, last-minute changes in
0:42:29 > 0:42:34strategy, and it appears the government called the bluff of the
0:42:34 > 0:42:38opposition and allowed them to go ahead with the ceremony, they had
0:42:38 > 0:42:42dismissed it over the last couple of days, saying it is inconsequential,
0:42:42 > 0:42:46and really that is what it is, the swearing-in has happened, recited
0:42:46 > 0:42:54over by one of the MPs in Raila Odinga's party, he was abandoned by
0:42:54 > 0:43:00his partners in the coalition. That could spell probably the end of the
0:43:00 > 0:43:05opposition coalition. The coalitions are created for specific elections
0:43:05 > 0:43:09in tenure, once the election is gone, different coalitions come up.
0:43:09 > 0:43:14The other issue as well, earlier today, we saw the government took an
0:43:14 > 0:43:19unprecedented position to cut off the signals of local media houses
0:43:19 > 0:43:23which are broadcasting live from that event, this is unprecedented
0:43:23 > 0:43:27within tenure, it has been criticised by different groups, it
0:43:27 > 0:43:31is not going to bode well for the government for many people in the
0:43:31 > 0:43:35coming days, however, for the opposition supporters, they have
0:43:35 > 0:43:39been celebrating today, in the coming days, reality will check in,
0:43:39 > 0:43:42and they will realise it is a huge disappointment and does not mean
0:43:42 > 0:43:48anything what happens today.
0:43:48 > 0:43:49The rape of an eight-month-old girl in India
0:43:49 > 0:43:51has been reported around the world.
0:43:51 > 0:44:00It happened in Delhi.
0:44:00 > 0:44:01Her 28-year-old cousin has been arrested.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04The girl's parents took her to this hospital on Sunday.
0:44:04 > 0:44:05She's now in a critical condition.
0:44:05 > 0:44:07It's the latest rape case to cause outrage in India.
0:44:07 > 0:44:09These pictures show the protests sparked
0:44:09 > 0:44:11by the notorious gang rape and murder of the 23-year-old
0:44:11 > 0:44:13student on a bus in Delhi in 2012.
0:44:13 > 0:44:15It forced the government to introduce tougher anti-rape laws,
0:44:15 > 0:44:16including the death penalty.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19But despite the national outrage rape cases continue to rise,
0:44:19 > 0:44:29especially child rapes.
0:44:31 > 0:44:41Police recorded 19,765 cases of child rape in 2016.
0:44:49 > 0:44:53Meenakshi Ganguly, South Asia director at Human Rights Watch.
0:44:53 > 0:44:57Thank you very much for your time, how can we understand the sharp
0:44:57 > 0:45:04increase in raperapes statistics, is it that they are being reported more
0:45:04 > 0:45:12often or are many more happening? Child sex abuse has always been a
0:45:12 > 0:45:16hidden secret in this society, many societies, including India. A number
0:45:16 > 0:45:22of times, the perpetrator is within the family or within a position of
0:45:22 > 0:45:29power, and people do not report these cases. The increase in numbers
0:45:29 > 0:45:34is because families are reporting these cases and also, India has now
0:45:34 > 0:45:39enacted a law that requires hospital authorities to report any case that
0:45:39 > 0:45:44comes to their attention as happened in this particular case when the
0:45:44 > 0:45:49child was raped.A lot of calls for further reform of the system, what
0:45:49 > 0:45:59kind of free forms would help protect children? --
0:45:59 > 0:46:04reforms.A lot of work has been done and more must be done, the
0:46:04 > 0:46:07prevention of sexual abuse against children act was passed before the
0:46:07 > 0:46:16case you mentioned, of the woman so brutally gang raped in December,
0:46:16 > 0:46:232012, before that, the law had been passed. But what is required is a
0:46:23 > 0:46:32lot more work in terms of enforcement, and...INAUDIBLE
0:46:32 > 0:46:37Not just to protect the children but to support families who want to
0:46:37 > 0:46:42support them. As I said, particularly in cases of child sex
0:46:42 > 0:46:47abuse, often the perpetrator is within the family, a family member
0:46:47 > 0:46:51or in position of authority. What happens is, the mother or the child
0:46:51 > 0:46:58do not have the means to even seek justice. All of these things could
0:46:58 > 0:47:03be much more put in place and enforced.Is it your perception that
0:47:03 > 0:47:08the Indian government is taking this issue seriously?This has been
0:47:08 > 0:47:12happening for some time, when a particularly egregious case happens,
0:47:12 > 0:47:18then there are protests, unfortunately it takes protests for
0:47:18 > 0:47:23the state to pay attention. These horrible crimes have been going on
0:47:23 > 0:47:32for some time. And what is required is hard work, not about the death
0:47:32 > 0:47:34penalty but reforming the criminal justice system, setting up
0:47:34 > 0:47:40protection mechanisms, enabling institutions to make sure that these
0:47:40 > 0:47:44things do not happen.Thank you very much for your time, we appreciate
0:47:44 > 0:47:47it.
0:47:56 > 0:48:00Last week we had reporting from El Salvador, today, the same reporter,
0:48:00 > 0:48:02from Guatemala.
0:48:02 > 0:48:04Guatemala has one of the highest populations
0:48:04 > 0:48:06of Protestants and Evangelical Christians in Latin America.
0:48:06 > 0:48:09A handful of pastors are huge names and they earn a lot of money.
0:48:09 > 0:48:11They're almost like rockstars, with pay packets to match.
0:48:11 > 0:48:14Ben Zand has this report, which features one town that
0:48:14 > 0:48:21believes it's blessed by God because of the size of its carrots.
0:48:32 > 0:48:36You are confident that will happen, not even remove the concerned it
0:48:36 > 0:48:39might not?
0:48:39 > 0:48:49This is Pastor Sanchez, a country which has one of the highest
0:48:49 > 0:48:51populations of evangelical Christians in the Hall of Latin
0:48:51 > 0:48:58America. In these mega- churches, believers are told that God can cure
0:48:58 > 0:49:05them of any disease, including AIDS and cancer. In this town, Sanchez's
0:49:05 > 0:49:10dollars believe that God has bestowed on the town the biggest
0:49:10 > 0:49:15miracle of all, giant carrots... Yes, giant carrots! -- Sanchez's
0:49:15 > 0:49:22followers. Well... That is bigger than my foot. That really is a
0:49:22 > 0:49:26massive carrot! Story goes like this, the people here used to
0:49:26 > 0:49:31believe in the gods, and so, they were punished. There are crops were
0:49:31 > 0:49:34small, they have problems with alcohol, poverty and loose morals.
0:49:34 > 0:49:40Since they started to believe in the God of people like Sanchez, it all
0:49:40 > 0:49:45changed, and they called it the transformation. The wider you think
0:49:45 > 0:49:50that out of all things, God decided to give your towns really nice
0:49:50 > 0:49:53carrot? Money could have rained down, anything could have happened,
0:49:53 > 0:49:53why this?
0:50:11 > 0:50:18What happened to these carrot? These are tiny.Small!Something told me
0:50:18 > 0:50:23there was more to the story than the divine power of God, I spoke with a
0:50:23 > 0:50:29woman who was doing a Ph.D. On the miracle.It is about fertiliser and
0:50:29 > 0:50:36pesticides. Agricultural production, long term effects are pesticide
0:50:36 > 0:50:40poisoning, possibly causing cancers, affecting cell development, even
0:50:40 > 0:50:44fertility. Actually, I think the church would have a wheelie
0:50:44 > 0:50:49important part to play if they were just looking at this issue and using
0:50:49 > 0:50:55their sermons to help educate people about these issues. They have a
0:50:55 > 0:50:58social responsibility. What I wanted to know of the people working in the
0:50:58 > 0:51:04farms knew of the risks. Smells very strong, I have a bit of a headache.
0:51:07 > 0:51:11Has anybody told you these chemicals might have adverse side-effects?
0:51:19 > 0:51:25A lot of people tell me that it is God that makes the carrots big, but
0:51:25 > 0:51:28surely, if you did not use this fertiliser, they would be very
0:51:28 > 0:51:37small. Off-camera, Sanchez told me he runs a tracking company. That is
0:51:37 > 0:51:39a fancy car... Transporting vegetables all over central America.
0:51:39 > 0:51:47As well as being a lower case Pastor you work in the vegetable is missed.
0:51:47 > 0:51:53-- pastor. I suppose you make more money from the big carrots. So you
0:51:53 > 0:51:59are lucky that God has blessed you in the way he has. Before I could
0:51:59 > 0:52:03confront Sanchez about the carrots, the whole town had turned out to
0:52:03 > 0:52:17give me a special gift. It was a bag of giant carrots. This isn't a
0:52:17 > 0:52:21carrot, this is the leg of a small child(!) LAUGHTER
0:52:28 > 0:52:32To get this big, people need to put quite a lot of fertiliser on, that
0:52:32 > 0:52:35can be bad for people's health.
0:52:44 > 0:52:47The town would lose a lot of money, people like you would not make as
0:52:47 > 0:52:50much money, would they even want to tell people if it was true?
0:53:03 > 0:53:10Thank you very much, thank you. Religion is so important to this
0:53:10 > 0:53:13town, these carrots are so important, I felt like I was
0:53:13 > 0:53:16destroying their most famous story. There is a reason the carrots are
0:53:16 > 0:53:21massive but something tells me it is not because of God, people like
0:53:21 > 0:53:25Sanchez, the truth is bad for business so I can see it changing
0:53:25 > 0:53:33any time soon. STUDIO: Thank you very much for that report.
0:53:35 > 0:53:38For the first time, a restaurant given three Michelin stars
0:53:38 > 0:53:40has asked to drop out of the Michelin guide,
0:53:40 > 0:53:43this guide being the most feared and revered of restaurant reviewers.
0:53:43 > 0:53:45The head chef of this restaurant in France said
0:53:45 > 0:53:46the pressure was too much.
0:53:46 > 0:53:47Michelin ratings work like this,
0:53:47 > 0:53:49one star means it's very good cooking.
0:53:49 > 0:53:50Two stars, excellent.
0:53:50 > 0:53:58Three stars, exceptional cuisine.
0:53:58 > 0:53:59For context, there are onlytenthree-star
0:53:59 > 0:54:00restaurants in Paris.
0:54:00 > 0:54:02Giorgiana is a chef in Athens.
0:54:02 > 0:54:05She owns a restaurant called Funky Gourmet, it has two stars.
0:54:05 > 0:54:15Here she is on the pressure that brings.
0:54:20 > 0:54:27Maintaining the high level of quality and hospitality on a daily
0:54:27 > 0:54:31basis, for every single day, every single guest, is one of the most
0:54:31 > 0:54:37stressful parts of the job. One very important advice that one inspector
0:54:37 > 0:54:44once gave to us, we should never cook for the stars, and that is what
0:54:44 > 0:54:47we did, even before we had any Michelin stars, we always cooked
0:54:47 > 0:54:54only for the guests. We wanted to perform, to be at our best everyday.
0:54:54 > 0:54:58That is all today, remember, the state of the union address in just
0:54:58 > 0:54:58over four
