Hello, welcome to Outside Source. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:15 | |
The US gun lobby launches an angry
defence of weapons ownership | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
amid calls for stricter controls
following the Florida shooting. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:23 | |
To stop a bad guy with a gun,
it takes a good guy with a gun. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:28 | |
Amid more terrible suffering
in Eastern Ghouta, the UN is trying | 0:00:31 | 0:00:34 | |
to agree a humanitarian ceasefire. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
TRANSLATION: Shame on you! This is
just a little boy who wants freedom. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:48 | |
Why are you doing this? I don't know
what to do. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
Theresa May is meeting at her
country residence, and the only | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
topic is Brexit. Justin Forsyth has
resigned from a senior role at | 0:01:00 | 0:01:05 | |
Unicef. We will get you up to date
from New York. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
The National Rifle Association
and Trump has set out | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
what it believes can
stop on school shooting - | 0:01:28 | 0:01:30 | |
more guns. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
Its leader spoke earlier at a major
literal event in Washington, DC. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
After every mass shooting in the US
there is a further national debate | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
on gun control. Wayne LaPierre said
this is playing politics with a | 0:01:41 | 0:01:46 | |
tragedy. As usual, the opportunists
wasted not one second to exploit | 0:01:46 | 0:01:53 | |
tragedy for political gain. The
break back speed of calls for more | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
gun control laws and the breathless
national media, eager to smear the | 0:01:57 | 0:02:06 | |
NRA. The NRA has been targeted in
this advert in the New York Times | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
today. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:11 | |
It lists 276 members
of Congress who "take NRA money | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
and block gun control" -
along with their phone numbers. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
The NRA also has good relations
with President Trump. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
Yesterday he backed the idea
of arming teachers. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
And Wayne LaPierre warmed
to that theme earlier. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:30 | |
It is a bizarre fact that in this
country our jewellery stores, all | 0:02:30 | 0:02:37 | |
over this country, are more
important than our children. Our | 0:02:37 | 0:02:43 | |
banks, our airports, our NBA games,
our NFL games, our office buildings, | 0:02:43 | 0:02:50 | |
our movie stars, our politicians.
They are all more protected than our | 0:02:50 | 0:02:57 | |
children at school. Does that make
any sense? To anybody? Do we really | 0:02:57 | 0:03:05 | |
love our money and our celebrities
more than we love our children? | 0:03:05 | 0:03:12 | |
Yesterday on Outside Source
we brought you that listening | 0:03:12 | 0:03:14 | |
session in the White House
where Donald Trump came out | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
in favour of arming teachers. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:23 | |
They gathered and listened to
teachers as well survivors of school | 0:03:23 | 0:03:28 | |
shootings, and relatives of victims.
The President was seen holding a | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
check list with five points on it.
Number one was what would you most | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
want me to know about your
experience? Number five was I hear | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
you. Donald Trump has also been
tweeting today. He's been talking | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
about the idea of arming teachers. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
You can translate that as the
President of America suggesting that | 0:04:01 | 0:04:06 | |
every school in the country should
have at least one gun inside it. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
Later today he spoke to ask both
sides of the political divide | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
to join him in taking action. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
I think we're making a lot
of progress and I can tell | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
you there's a tremendous feeling
that we're that we're | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
going to get something done. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
And we're leading that feeling
I hope, but there's a great feeling, | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
including at the NRA,
including Republican senators | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
and hopefully Democrat
senators and congressmen. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:35 | |
Polling suggests the majority
of the teachers don't want | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
a gun in the classroom. | 0:04:38 | 0:04:43 | |
This is one in Pennsylvania. In my
opinion, I think guns in the | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
classroom are absolutely ridiculous.
I think most teachers are not | 0:04:47 | 0:04:52 | |
trained, I think you are putting
students at risk having guns in the | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
classroom. I think it is not a bad
idea to have security people with | 0:04:55 | 0:04:59 | |
guns, but I am qualified on the M-16
rifle and .45 pistol, and there is | 0:04:59 | 0:05:07 | |
no way that a teacher should have a
gun in a classroom. There are two | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
money opportunities for accidents
and if you kept the weapon locked, | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
how would you access it if something
were happening? Anthony Zurcher was | 0:05:14 | 0:05:23 | |
at that speech earlier and has been
telling me about it. It was | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
interesting, I have been to a lot of
these conferences and the crowd can | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
be very raucous, animated. They
really weren't all that animated | 0:05:30 | 0:05:35 | |
during the speeches of the NRA folk.
It was interesting. In fact, they | 0:05:35 | 0:05:45 | |
made reference to that, I hear you
are quiet, you are afraid, and you | 0:05:45 | 0:05:50 | |
need to be afraid because they are
coming for your guns, essentially. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:53 | |
That is what Wayne LaPierre said.
Then when Vice President Mike Pence | 0:05:53 | 0:05:59 | |
came out, a couple of speakers
later, they cheered really loudly | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
for things like building the Mexican
War, Neil Gorsuch, the Supreme Court | 0:06:02 | 0:06:09 | |
nomination, tax cuts, standing for
the national anthem. It was a sombre | 0:06:09 | 0:06:14 | |
mood, but it was not the reaction
you would expect from some of the | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
red meat that Wayne LaPierre was
throwing out there, media bashing, | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
Democratic parishing and even
criticising the FBI, which is a | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
bogeyman for the right these days.
Presumably, the NRA is relatively | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
pleased with the current state of
the debate, given that normally in | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
the aftermath of a mass shooting it
comes under pressure, but it now has | 0:06:33 | 0:06:37 | |
the President backing one of its
primary ideas on this, arming | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
teachers? Right. You saw Donald
Trump tweeting earlier today, saying | 0:06:40 | 0:06:48 | |
that the NRA are great people and
that he has their support. The NRA | 0:06:48 | 0:06:52 | |
supported him very early in the
presidential campaign when there | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
were a lot of conservative groups
that were not sure whether to back | 0:06:55 | 0:07:00 | |
Donald Trump when it looked pretty
clear he was going to get the | 0:07:00 | 0:07:03 | |
nomination. The NRA jumped in with
both feet and supported him to the | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
tune of about $30 million over the
course of the campaign. Donald Trump | 0:07:06 | 0:07:10 | |
knows who is loyal to him, and he
rewards loyalty. I think he sees | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
that from the NRA. As you mentioned,
there is going to be significant | 0:07:13 | 0:07:22 | |
pushback from turning schools into
hard targets, in his words. Donald | 0:07:22 | 0:07:28 | |
Trump talked about arming teachers,
there are 3.5 million public school | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
teachers, you're talking about
100,000 teachers conceivably, and | 0:07:32 | 0:07:36 | |
that idea, being given guns, a
massive undertaking, by any | 0:07:36 | 0:07:41 | |
reasonable understanding. Last week,
in the immediate aftermath of the | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
Florida shooting, we spoke to a WR
Hawkins from Breitbart news. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:52 | |
He was making the argument then,
right after the tragedy, | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
that teachers should be armed. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:56 | |
Let's catch up with him
again now in Arizona. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
Thank you very much for your time.
Would you support the idea of | 0:07:58 | 0:08:04 | |
700,000 teachers that currently
don't have guns at school being | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
harmed? If the teachers want to be
-- Being armed. You don't force them | 0:08:07 | 0:08:17 | |
to be, but if they want to be armed,
certainly. Sandy Hook, nobody was | 0:08:17 | 0:08:24 | |
armed, 27 people killed. Virginia
Tech, nobody was armed, 32 people | 0:08:24 | 0:08:30 | |
killed. This most recent attack, no
body was armed, 17 people killed. We | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
tried it that way and it doesn't
work. I am all for a social studies | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
teacher that can take out an attack
in the first five seconds. What | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
would you say to people watching in
the UK and around the world, to whom | 0:08:41 | 0:08:45 | |
the idea of a gun being in a
classroom along with their young | 0:08:45 | 0:08:51 | |
child is horrific, in compensable?
Well, I mean, I would say that they | 0:08:51 | 0:08:58 | |
may not understand. Many of those
teachers have concealed carry | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
permits, and at night, when they
travel to the gas station, the | 0:09:01 | 0:09:05 | |
restaurant, they have a gun with
them and they have young kids with | 0:09:05 | 0:09:08 | |
them, and their friends with them.
That is everyday life, that is just | 0:09:08 | 0:09:11 | |
how it is in America. So, the fact
that you send them to school and | 0:09:11 | 0:09:16 | |
say, while you are at school you
cannot have that gun for self | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
defence, that is the real atrocity.
There is no atrocity and having a | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
gun with him when the child is with
him in other settings, why should | 0:09:22 | 0:09:28 | |
they be denied that right when they
are at school? You force them to be | 0:09:28 | 0:09:31 | |
sitting ducks and it is a ridiculous
policy. I am interested that you are | 0:09:31 | 0:09:35 | |
focusing on how to deal with
somebody coming into a school with a | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
gun, rather than talking about the
fact they have a gun in the first | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
place? That is a fair point. I'm
talking about somebody that comes | 0:09:42 | 0:09:46 | |
into school with a machete, with a
knife, with a hammer, with anything. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:50 | |
The way we are set up right now, the
teachers are defenceless, period. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:54 | |
You can bring in any weapon you
want. That is a good point. I don't | 0:09:54 | 0:10:00 | |
care if the attacker has a sword or
gun, if the teacher is arm she can | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
take him out. That is the important
thing. What we have seen in America | 0:10:03 | 0:10:07 | |
is the outward perimeter on schools
are so weak. Anybody that wants to | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
get on campus, they can get on
campus. There is a broader issue of | 0:10:11 | 0:10:16 | |
school security, but what about the
core issue here? It struck me during | 0:10:16 | 0:10:19 | |
the listening session that people
were talking about dealing with | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
pupils that are isolated, making
sure people connect with each other, | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
making sure teachers are armed, but
not necessarily talking about the | 0:10:25 | 0:10:29 | |
fact it is just too easy to get a
gun in America? Well, the reason | 0:10:29 | 0:10:34 | |
they didn't bring that up is the
left has pushed background checks, | 0:10:34 | 0:10:38 | |
waiting periods, all of these
things. Florida has a waiting period | 0:10:38 | 0:10:43 | |
of three days for a handgun
purchase, they have background | 0:10:43 | 0:10:48 | |
checks. This guy complied with that
rule, as almost every mass public | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
attacker does. So, we have tried all
of their gun controls and none of | 0:10:52 | 0:10:58 | |
them work. That is why I'm not
addressing it, I'm not trying to | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
skirt the issue, it is not worth
addressing because gun control | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
failed. Now we have to find out what
will work in place of gun controls, | 0:11:03 | 0:11:08 | |
and it is letting his teachers
defend themselves. Help me | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
understand, then, why you are not
focusing on gun control, but that | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
would appear to be the primary
difference between America, where | 0:11:15 | 0:11:18 | |
there are a huge number of mass
shootings, and lots of other | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
countries in the world, where their
arms? Right... Why would we focus on | 0:11:21 | 0:11:28 | |
gun control at any point? Let me ask
you a question, who would obey gun | 0:11:28 | 0:11:35 | |
control laws? Woodlore -- would
law-abiding citizens obey, or | 0:11:35 | 0:11:43 | |
criminals question In a case of
Australia or the UK... In general, | 0:11:43 | 0:11:47 | |
law-abiding citizens do, criminals
do not. Why would I respond to a | 0:11:47 | 0:11:53 | |
crime by looking at how we could
restrain law-abiding citizens? The | 0:11:53 | 0:12:00 | |
reality is that if I am minded to
get a gun in London, it is awfully | 0:12:00 | 0:12:05 | |
harder than if I were to get it
where you are in Arizona. That is | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
just a fact, whether I am a criminal
or law-abiding citizen. Well, it | 0:12:09 | 0:12:13 | |
might be a fact, but there is
another deal, in America, it is part | 0:12:13 | 0:12:17 | |
of our heritage. It always has been.
That is part of life in America | 0:12:17 | 0:12:23 | |
since 1791, when the Second
Amendment was ratified. In America, | 0:12:23 | 0:12:27 | |
we are guaranteed by the
Constitution the right to keep and | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
bear arms. Exercising that right is
checking the fact, that other people | 0:12:29 | 0:12:37 | |
are armed. But you cut to it, in the
end, your history, your heritage, it | 0:12:37 | 0:12:46 | |
is actually more important than
stopping people dying in mass | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
shootings. I'm not saying that is
right or wrong, but is that not a | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
fact? Not at all. We have problems
that have nothing to do with guns. I | 0:12:54 | 0:13:01 | |
think Trump is right when he looks
at the mental health issue. Our | 0:13:01 | 0:13:06 | |
mental health is a broken system,
because of the left. The same people | 0:13:06 | 0:13:10 | |
that push gun control, they help
themselves by not taking care of the | 0:13:10 | 0:13:14 | |
mentally ill and then when the
mentally ill do something wrong, | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
instead of addressing the mentally
ill problems, they say we need or | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
gun laws. They use everything, they
let a certain degree of chaos exist, | 0:13:20 | 0:13:25 | |
in order to feed arguments for gun
control. I would agree with you, | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
there are some things we can do, but
addressing gun laws is not one of | 0:13:28 | 0:13:33 | |
them. We have so many thousands and
thousands of gun laws and they don't | 0:13:33 | 0:13:38 | |
matter. They will never met. --
never matter. Good to talk to you, I | 0:13:38 | 0:13:45 | |
have gone over the time I had to
talk to you because it was so | 0:13:45 | 0:13:48 | |
fascinating. That was AWR who writes
for Breitbart news. | 0:13:48 | 0:13:51 | |
We want to bring you the latest now
on the crisis in Syria. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:55 | |
A UN resolution had been
tabled in New York - | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
calling for a 30 day truce. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
That's been blocked by Russia,
Moscow wanted it amended - | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
it said it only put pressure
on the Syrian government, | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
which it backs. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:10 | |
Also, the awful situation in eastern
Ghouta. It is the last major rebel | 0:14:10 | 0:14:18 | |
stronghold near to the capital. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
And for five days, Syria -
backed by Russia - | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
have been carrying out
an intense bombing campaign. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:26 | |
More than 400,000 people
are trapped there. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
And more than 400 people have died,
94 of them children. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
These are some of the latest
pictures - I want to warn | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
you they are disturbing. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
This video is from the
so-called White Helmets, | 0:14:40 | 0:14:42 | |
a civil defence group. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:47 | |
They have been giving lots of
details on their Twitter account. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
They say some residents have no
access to food or clean drinking | 0:14:50 | 0:14:53 | |
water. Lots of people are living
underground to try to stay safe. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:58 | |
Medical facilities and staff are
being targeted and the UN is now | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
warning of a massacre. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:04 | |
We've also been following videos
posted by two girls | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
trapped in eastern Ghouta. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:08 | |
This was put up a day ago. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:09 | |
Warplanes attacked... | 0:15:16 | 0:15:22 | |
They say warplanes and helicopters
are attacking their neighbourhood. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
And that there's nowhere
to run for cover. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
They are pleading for help. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
A Twitter account has been set up
using their names. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:38 | |
This video was posted earlier today.
You can see very clearly that one of | 0:15:46 | 0:15:51 | |
the girls has been injured. Even
hear them screaming in Arabic, | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
crying for help. You can see the
snow that has been left from the | 0:15:55 | 0:15:58 | |
shelling. Her mother told us later
that the house had been bombed and | 0:15:58 | 0:16:03 | |
that her son was also hurt. We have
been contacting doctors working in | 0:16:03 | 0:16:10 | |
eastern Ghouta. They say the
situation is going from bad to worse | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
and personnel are under so much
stress. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:19 | |
Ahmad Tarakji is President of
the Syrian American Medical Society. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:20 | |
I was just talking to my colleagues
in Ghouta as I walked into the | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
studio. They are terrified, the
situation is terrible and they feel | 0:16:28 | 0:16:33 | |
they are facing a massacre coming up
soon. Where are they able to work? | 0:16:33 | 0:16:38 | |
Are there still medical facilities
they can use? The medical capacity | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |
has dropped by about 60% compared to
what it was last week before the | 0:16:42 | 0:16:46 | |
situation started. There are still
some medical facilities operating. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:52 | |
Not to the point where they can help
people. We have seen many casualties | 0:16:52 | 0:16:56 | |
and people dying from treatable
conditions. The doctors are | 0:16:56 | 0:16:59 | |
committed to continue serving, and
chewing Nickell Robey humanitarian | 0:16:59 | 0:17:07 | |
workers. With limited resources and
the constant bombing of hospitals, | 0:17:07 | 0:17:10 | |
they can't do that as effectively as
they should. Do the doctors believe | 0:17:10 | 0:17:16 | |
they are being politically targeted?
Absolutely, it is a clear pattern of | 0:17:16 | 0:17:21 | |
attacking by the Syrian air force.
It is completely paralysed in the | 0:17:21 | 0:17:26 | |
medical sector. I was communicating
with my colleague, the head of the | 0:17:26 | 0:17:32 | |
White helmets team, and he said most
of the ambulances are also targeted. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:38 | |
They are not even able to evacuate
patients from the building, or from | 0:17:38 | 0:17:43 | |
the basements, to the hospitals.
Whoever gets to the hospital might | 0:17:43 | 0:17:52 | |
not get treated correctly because
they are destroying hospitals. I | 0:17:52 | 0:17:56 | |
assume the casualties and injuries
are caused by bombs from fighter | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
planes? Absolutely, they are coming
from the Syrian air force, we're | 0:17:59 | 0:18:08 | |
starting to see different missiles
being utilised. Everybody is hiding | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
in basements. We are seeing the
missile similar to what we have seen | 0:18:11 | 0:18:20 | |
in Aleppo. The last seven years have
seen any number of horrors in Syria. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:27 | |
How do your colleagues compare what
we are seeing in eastern Ghouta with | 0:18:27 | 0:18:31 | |
other situations that have played
out? It is a replay of three | 0:18:31 | 0:18:36 | |
displacement scenarios. We have seen
comparable escalation of the | 0:18:36 | 0:18:41 | |
situation as we have seen in Aleppo.
We have seen situations in other | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
places. The doctors in Ghouta the
same doctors that treated the | 0:18:44 | 0:18:49 | |
chemical attacks in 2013, the very
famous ones. They have been besieged | 0:18:49 | 0:18:54 | |
for the last three and a half years.
We are seeing the worst days we have | 0:18:54 | 0:18:59 | |
ever seen over the past five or six
years. Background information is | 0:18:59 | 0:19:05 | |
available whenever you need it
online. Alijaz Bedene tweeting about | 0:19:05 | 0:19:11 | |
how she has not opened Snapchat very
much and that appears to have had a | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
significant impact on the market
value of the company that owns | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
Snapchat. We will be live in New
York to find out what is going on. | 0:19:18 | 0:19:26 | |
We'll be talking to
Yogita Limaye about it | 0:19:26 | 0:19:27 | |
Police say they're investigating
a letter sent to St James Palace | 0:19:28 | 0:19:30 | |
as a racist hate crime. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
Scotland Yard say it was delivered
along with a package containing | 0:19:32 | 0:19:34 | |
what's reported to be
a white powder. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
It was reportedly addressed
to Prince Harry and his | 0:19:36 | 0:19:38 | |
fiancee, Meghan Markle. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:39 | |
Tests on the substance
confirmed it was not harmful. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:41 | |
No arrests have been made. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
Richard Lister has more. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:50 | |
It seems to refer to something
written on the letter. The couple | 0:19:51 | 0:19:54 | |
themselves have not made any comment
and it has not been formally | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
acknowledge that the letter was sent
to them. Of course, Meghan Markle is | 0:19:57 | 0:20:03 | |
of mixed race. Prince Harry spoke of
last November about the racist abuse | 0:20:03 | 0:20:09 | |
he said she received on social
media. This would clearly take it to | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
another level if they were the
targets of this. One interesting | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
thing that the police will be
looking at, the following date: | 0:20:16 | 0:20:21 | |
February 13, another letter
containing a suspicious powder was | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
received the Palace of Westminster,
addressed to Amber Ruud, and clearly | 0:20:24 | 0:20:30 | |
the police will be looking at
whether those letters are linked. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:41 | |
We live in the BBC newsroom. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:45 | |
Pressure is growing for more gun
control in the US, but the powerful | 0:20:45 | 0:20:50 | |
NRA are calling for armed security
at every school. Donald Trump has | 0:20:50 | 0:20:54 | |
been tweeting that teachers could
have the option to the answer they | 0:20:54 | 0:20:59 | |
can fire back if a Savage Dzeko
comes into the school. From BBC | 0:20:59 | 0:21:05 | |
Russia... | 0:21:05 | 0:21:06 | |
Russian opposition leader
Alexei Navalny has been detained | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
by police in Moscow -
and then released | 0:21:08 | 0:21:10 | |
shortly afterwards. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:11 | |
He's already barred from running
in the presidential | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
election in a few weeks -
and is calling for a boycott. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:21 | |
These Egyptian policemen
were guarding a bank | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
when they noticed that a child
was hanging from | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
a third floor window. | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
One of them manages to catch the
child, who was not in any way | 0:21:27 | 0:21:31 | |
injured. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:37 | |
Shares in Snap, the company
behind social media | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
app SnapChat, plunged
by | 0:21:39 | 0:21:40 | |
around 8% today. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
That means the company
lost around $1.5 billion | 0:21:43 | 0:21:47 | |
in market value. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:48 | |
What caused the slump? | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
Well reality television star
Kylie Jenner tweeted | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
that she doesn't use the social
media platform anymore. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:53 | |
You would not think that was enough
to move the market value of a | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
company by over $1 billion. But
perhaps? | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
Yogita Limaye is in New York. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
Is it as simple as that? Well, I
don't think anybody can say with | 0:22:11 | 0:22:16 | |
certainty that is what has happened.
But she tweeted yesterday at 4.50 | 0:22:16 | 0:22:22 | |
local time, 50 minutes after the
market closed. Suddenly, today, once | 0:22:22 | 0:22:28 | |
the market opened, it has been a
pretty bad day for Snap. They have | 0:22:28 | 0:22:32 | |
ended more than 6% down, but that is
a very dramatic fall. I have to say, | 0:22:32 | 0:22:37 | |
the other thing that had happened,
which involves the company, is that | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
they released a report, and in that
report, they talked about the | 0:22:40 | 0:22:43 | |
compensation that chief executive is
getting. He actually gets a stocks | 0:22:43 | 0:22:49 | |
grant of more than $600 million.
There are also analysts that are | 0:22:49 | 0:22:53 | |
saying that perhaps it is a
combination of those two factors. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
Generally, a lot of Snapchat users
have been very unhappy with the new | 0:22:57 | 0:23:01 | |
update that they have released on
Snapchat. Kylie Jenna's tweet, and | 0:23:01 | 0:23:09 | |
she has about 24.5 million
followers, if that is going to | 0:23:09 | 0:23:18 | |
result in less users. The redesign,
which a lot of people are not happy | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
about, it sounds like they are not
backing down? The statement I saw | 0:23:21 | 0:23:26 | |
basis it had to get used to it? Is
Ashley, there was even a petition | 0:23:26 | 0:23:33 | |
online by people who want them to go
back to the original Snapchat. The | 0:23:33 | 0:23:38 | |
company saying they have segregated
content on the app, so stuff that | 0:23:38 | 0:23:43 | |
you see from friends and things that
you see from celebrities that you | 0:23:43 | 0:23:49 | |
follow or other platforms, that are
making content for Snapchat, you | 0:23:49 | 0:23:53 | |
sort of see that separately. People
are quite unhappy with how the | 0:23:53 | 0:23:58 | |
stories have been mixed up. Snapchat
says that it is an effort to | 0:23:58 | 0:24:03 | |
segregate the content and make it
easier for people to use. But I | 0:24:03 | 0:24:08 | |
think a lot of people are unhappy
with that. OK, thank you very much. | 0:24:08 | 0:24:12 | |
This is the Financial Times telling
us that Evan Speigel's pay has hit | 0:24:12 | 0:24:20 | |
$638 million. Nice work if you can
get it! | 0:24:20 | 0:24:26 | |
A German Federal court has failed
to come to a decision today over | 0:24:26 | 0:24:30 | |
whether to allow cities
to ban diesel cars. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:31 | |
Instead, the court has delayed
the decision until Tuesday. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:34 | |
The car industry is watching this
very closely. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:35 | |
Theo Leggett explains
the complexities of the issue. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:40 | |
Cities across Europe have to abide
by European limits on emissions, | 0:24:40 | 0:24:47 | |
like nitrogen oxide, which can cause
respiratory problems. We have a | 0:24:47 | 0:24:51 | |
court looking at whether or not, in
order to achieve that goal, and | 0:24:51 | 0:24:56 | |
people driving diesel cars into city
centres should be considered. If | 0:24:56 | 0:25:03 | |
they were to decide that it should
be an effective way of reaching the | 0:25:03 | 0:25:08 | |
quality targets, cities across
Germany would feel pretty much | 0:25:08 | 0:25:10 | |
obliged to introduce them, otherwise
they could face legal challenges | 0:25:10 | 0:25:14 | |
from environmental groups. They
would pretty much have to do it. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
That, then, would have a knock-on
effect for millions of drivers, who | 0:25:17 | 0:25:21 | |
bought diesel cars in good faith. We
are even told by the German | 0:25:21 | 0:25:25 | |
government and other governments, a
few years ago, that diesel cars were | 0:25:25 | 0:25:30 | |
environmentally friendly. So, the
ramifications are profound. It could | 0:25:30 | 0:25:34 | |
affect millions of consumers, affect
the industry, affect the policies of | 0:25:34 | 0:25:39 | |
local government. It is a
complicated matter. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:43 | |
Straight after the end of this first
half of Outside Source we are going | 0:25:43 | 0:25:47 | |
to be looking at Brexit. It has been
a huge day for Theresa May. She | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
gathered some of the most senior
ministers at Chequers, her country | 0:25:50 | 0:25:54 | |
retreat. Their job is to thrash out
what kind of relationship the UK | 0:25:54 | 0:25:57 | |
once with the EU after Brexit. We
will get you all of the details and | 0:25:57 | 0:26:01 | |
a few minutes. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:03 | |
Killyman. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
-- good evening. It has been rather
dreary, but it looks like we will | 0:26:14 | 0:26:19 | |
see more in a way of sunshine as we
head towards the weekend. This was | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
the story further north and west.
You can see these pictures of the | 0:26:22 | 0:26:26 | |
Scottish Borders. After a dreary
start in the south-east the cloud | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
broke up from the south-east coast
and we will have some beautiful | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
spells of sunshine. We continue to
see clear skies through the evening, | 0:26:31 | 0:26:39 | |
with the exception being further
west. Clear skies at this time of | 0:26:39 | 0:26:43 | |
year leads to a widespread hard
frost, particularly through the | 0:26:43 | 0:26:45 | |
spine of the country. The cloud
prevents the blue tones arriving in | 0:26:45 | 0:26:50 | |
Northern Ireland, said temperatures
here holding up above freezing. A | 0:26:50 | 0:26:54 | |
cloudy, great start through Northern
Ireland and parts of Scotland. We | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
will also see a bit of cloud coming
in of the North Sea coast. If we | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
look at the afternoon in more
detail, you can see where the cloud | 0:27:01 | 0:27:04 | |
will tend to linger of the North Sea
coast, and also through the Western | 0:27:04 | 0:27:08 | |
Isles and into Northern Ireland. For
much of Wales, central and southern | 0:27:08 | 0:27:12 | |
England, just a little bit of fair
weather cloud across Cornwall. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:17 | |
Elsewhere, more sunshine coming
through. Not a particularly warm | 0:27:17 | 0:27:19 | |
day, four or 7 degrees. Don't start
moaning yet, it is going to get even | 0:27:19 | 0:27:24 | |
colder as this high-pressure across
Scandinavia is really in the driving | 0:27:24 | 0:27:28 | |
seat with the weather patterns at
the moment. It means quite a quiet | 0:27:28 | 0:27:31 | |
story with the wind coming in off
the cold, European coastline. As we | 0:27:31 | 0:27:37 | |
move into Saturday, there will be
more of a breeze, particularly on | 0:27:37 | 0:27:40 | |
the exposed east coast. That will
feel quite fresh. Hopefully some | 0:27:40 | 0:27:43 | |
lovely spells of sunshine to
compensate. Perhaps into Northern | 0:27:43 | 0:27:47 | |
Ireland we will have more in the way
of cloud. It will be a chilly day on | 0:27:47 | 0:27:53 | |
Saturday. Into Sunday it is almost a
repeat performance. A bit of cloud | 0:27:53 | 0:27:56 | |
coming from the North Sea to the
north and east. A stronger breeze | 0:27:56 | 0:28:00 | |
down into East Anglia and the
south-east, and it will feel much | 0:28:00 | 0:28:03 | |
colder than these temperatures
suggest, highs of about five to 7 | 0:28:03 | 0:28:08 | |
degrees. You have probably heard
that it is going to get even colder | 0:28:08 | 0:28:11 | |
still, with the air originating from
Siberia, and over the next few days | 0:28:11 | 0:28:19 | |
it looks like temperatures are set
to fall. You can see that in the | 0:28:19 | 0:28:23 | |
city outlook through Monday and
Tuesday, temperatures really | 0:28:23 | 0:28:26 | |
struggling to climb above freezing.
You have been warned! | 0:28:26 | 0:28:30 | |

We'll get into Brexit a moment. | 0:30:46 | 0:30:57 | |
Theresa May and a group of senior
British ministers have spent the day | 0:31:01 | 0:31:04 | |
trying to find agreement
on what relationship | 0:31:04 | 0:31:05 | |
they want the UK to have
with the EU after Brexit. | 0:31:05 | 0:31:08 | |
This is happening at
Prime Minister's country | 0:31:08 | 0:31:10 | |
retreat, Chequers. | 0:31:10 | 0:31:14 | |
Here it is - it's about 50km miles
north-west of London. | 0:31:14 | 0:31:16 | |
Here are the ministerial
cars arriving earlier. | 0:31:16 | 0:31:26 | |
It takes quite a while to get done
belonged either. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:30 | |
The key issue is the degree
to which UK should seek | 0:31:30 | 0:31:33 | |
to align with the EU -
and what terms the UK | 0:31:33 | 0:31:35 | |
should accept in exchange
for access to EU's market. | 0:31:35 | 0:31:40 | |
Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson
is on one side of the debate - | 0:31:40 | 0:31:43 | |
seeking the ability to diverge
from EU rules and regulations. | 0:31:43 | 0:31:48 | |
Chancellor Philip Hammond
is on the other - wanting | 0:31:48 | 0:31:50 | |
Britain to be aligned
as closely as possible. | 0:31:50 | 0:31:55 | |
Theresa May's job is to find
some common ground. | 0:31:55 | 0:31:57 | |
Let's hear the closest she's come
to stating a clear position | 0:31:57 | 0:32:00 | |
on managing the future relationship. | 0:32:00 | 0:32:07 | |
This was in Florence Glastir. There
will be areas of policy and | 0:32:07 | 0:32:11 | |
regulation that are outside the
scope of our relations. There will | 0:32:11 | 0:32:19 | |
be areas where are we and our
European friends may have different | 0:32:19 | 0:32:23 | |
goals or may have the desire to
share the same goals, but by the | 0:32:23 | 0:32:28 | |
different means. And there will be
areas where we want to achieve the | 0:32:28 | 0:32:31 | |
same goals in the same way is
because it makes sense for our | 0:32:31 | 0:32:34 | |
economies. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:35 | |
The outcome where Britain opts
to diverge a bit in some areas, | 0:32:35 | 0:32:38 | |
a lot in others, and not
at all in others, has been described | 0:32:38 | 0:32:41 | |
at the "three baskets approach." | 0:32:41 | 0:32:42 | |
Not a great title but it's
what we've got to work | 0:32:42 | 0:32:49 | |
with. | 0:32:49 | 0:32:50 | |
But even if Theresa May gets
agreement among her colleagues | 0:32:50 | 0:32:53 | |
on the three baskets -
of course that doesn't mean | 0:32:53 | 0:32:55 | |
the EU will also agree. | 0:32:55 | 0:32:56 | |
Here's the BBC's reality check
correspondent Chris Morris. | 0:32:56 | 0:32:58 | |
We already know, in fact,
that they are not that | 0:32:58 | 0:33:01 | |
keen on this approach. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:02 | |
Last night, they released a series
of slides which had been shown by | 0:33:02 | 0:33:05 | |
the European Commission
to member states. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:06 | |
So you can see a little bit of one
of the slides there. | 0:33:06 | 0:33:09 | |
This is the key one. | 0:33:10 | 0:33:11 | |
Basically, what it says is,
in summary, the three basket | 0:33:11 | 0:33:13 | |
approach is not compatible
with the principles | 0:33:13 | 0:33:15 | |
of the European Union's guidelines. | 0:33:15 | 0:33:17 | |
Basically, it says it
would undermine the integrity of the | 0:33:17 | 0:33:20 | |
single market. | 0:33:20 | 0:33:22 | |
That gets back to the age-old
argument about are we just | 0:33:22 | 0:33:24 | |
trying to cherry pick the best bits? | 0:33:24 | 0:33:26 | |
It would also, they fear,
allow other third World countries, | 0:33:26 | 0:33:29 | |
Switzerland, Norway,
to say, "Well, hang on, | 0:33:29 | 0:33:32 | |
if the UK has this great,
special relationship, we want some | 0:33:32 | 0:33:35 | |
of that. | 0:33:35 | 0:33:36 | |
We want to make it better." | 0:33:36 | 0:33:41 | |
-- other third countries. | 0:33:41 | 0:33:42 | |
It also says it would mean that it
would be more difficult for the you | 0:33:42 | 0:33:45 | |
to make decisions after Brexit,
because it would be hamstrung by | 0:33:45 | 0:33:48 | |
this strange new
relationship with the UK. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:50 | |
There's pressure coming
from all angles on this issue. | 0:33:50 | 0:33:52 | |
Around 60 Brexit-supporting Mps
are crucial to her ability to get | 0:33:52 | 0:33:55 | |
things through parliament. | 0:33:55 | 0:33:56 | |
They are demanding "full
regulatory autonomy" - | 0:33:56 | 0:33:58 | |
in other words complete freedom
to do as it wants - | 0:33:58 | 0:34:00 | |
they argue this will help with trade
deals with places like China. | 0:34:00 | 0:34:10 | |
Their leader is Jacob Rees Mogg. | 0:34:12 | 0:34:22 | |
Pro-EU MP Chuka Ummana says... | 0:34:23 | 0:34:27 | |
Of course, it was sold
in many different forms, | 0:34:27 | 0:34:30 | |
and that's one of the issues here. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:32 | |
The vote to leave wasn't a vote
for one type of Brexit or another. | 0:34:32 | 0:34:38 | |
It was simply a vote to get out. | 0:34:39 | 0:34:41 | |
Here's the BBC's Political
Corresponent Alex Forsyth, | 0:34:41 | 0:34:42 | |
outside the Chequers meeting,
on what we can expect from it. | 0:34:42 | 0:34:45 | |
I think what we will get is some
sort of broad statement, perhaps not | 0:34:45 | 0:34:48 | |
necessarily today, but in the next
week or so when we are expecting | 0:34:48 | 0:34:52 | |
Theresa May to give
a speech with a bit more | 0:34:52 | 0:34:54 | |
detail, fleshing out
the | 0:34:54 | 0:34:55 | |
endgame that the UK hopes to
achieve, but of course it is worth | 0:34:55 | 0:34:58 | |
mentioning this... | 0:34:58 | 0:34:59 | |
This is the senior level
ministers trying to | 0:34:59 | 0:35:01 | |
work out what they want
from Brexit the long term. | 0:35:01 | 0:35:05 | |
That is just a starting position. | 0:35:05 | 0:35:06 | |
That then has to be
negotiated with Brussels, and | 0:35:06 | 0:35:09 | |
once again we are hearing from
the EU that there can be no cherry | 0:35:09 | 0:35:12 | |
picking. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:14 | |
The UK can't have all the benefits
of the EU without the | 0:35:14 | 0:35:16 | |
rights and obligations. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:18 | |
So I think Theresa May's
balancing act, that | 0:35:18 | 0:35:20 | |
she is probably conducting
round the dinner table right now, | 0:35:20 | 0:35:22 | |
well, that is going to continue
for some time. | 0:35:22 | 0:35:24 | |
An interesting subtext to all this. | 0:35:24 | 0:35:26 | |
Since the vote for Brexit,
the number of EU citizens leaving | 0:35:26 | 0:35:28 | |
the UK has risen to its highest
level for a decade. | 0:35:28 | 0:35:34 | |
130,000 emigrated in
the year to September. | 0:35:34 | 0:35:37 | |
Though 220,000 EU nationals moved
TO the UK in the same period. | 0:35:37 | 0:35:41 | |
That means net EU migration
was 90,000, that's | 0:35:41 | 0:35:44 | |
the lowest for five years. | 0:35:44 | 0:35:45 | |
This is The UK's Immigration
Minister on the impact of Brexit. | 0:35:45 | 0:35:55 | |
Our first priority was for those EU
citizens already living here and are | 0:35:59 | 0:36:02 | |
living here prior to the 29th of
March next year. | 0:36:02 | 0:36:13 | |
People who come here after it will
have different expectations. They | 0:36:13 | 0:36:19 | |
will come here knowing we have left
the EU, so what we must do now is | 0:36:19 | 0:36:24 | |
negotiate very cosy with our
European partners as to what the | 0:36:24 | 0:36:27 | |
position of those people will be
going forward. | 0:36:27 | 0:36:30 | |
Now we turn to the scandals
involving charities - | 0:36:30 | 0:36:32 | |
two days ago we were telling
you about the complaints | 0:36:32 | 0:36:35 | |
of inappropriate behaviour levelled
against Justin Forsyth | 0:36:35 | 0:36:36 | |
while he was chief executive
there at Save the Children. | 0:36:36 | 0:36:39 | |
Now he's resigned from Unicef. | 0:36:39 | 0:36:44 | |
Here's what he said... | 0:36:44 | 0:36:49 | |
Nada Tawfik is in New York for us. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:04 | |
This was looking more and more
untenable, wasn't it? Absolutely. I | 0:37:04 | 0:37:10 | |
spoke to a fewer employees at Unicef
and one of them told me this was | 0:37:10 | 0:37:14 | |
becoming a distraction for them to
be able to do their important work, | 0:37:14 | 0:37:18 | |
and so I think we clearly saw that
with Justin Forsyth's decision today | 0:37:18 | 0:37:22 | |
to hand in his resignation this
morning. He said point-blank wasn't | 0:37:22 | 0:37:28 | |
doing this because of the complaints
from his role in his former employer | 0:37:28 | 0:37:34 | |
at the charity Save the Children.
Those were of course the fact that | 0:37:34 | 0:37:38 | |
he was accused of texting young
female staffers inappropriately, | 0:37:38 | 0:37:43 | |
commenting on how they worked. He
said he had apologised and the | 0:37:43 | 0:37:47 | |
proper process had been taking care
of a few years back, but he said the | 0:37:47 | 0:37:51 | |
reason he was doing this was because
he didn't want to do any more damage | 0:37:51 | 0:37:57 | |
to Oxfam and Save the Children, and
so I think a lot of people at Unicef | 0:37:57 | 0:38:00 | |
would agree with him that it was
time to take this step to have him | 0:38:00 | 0:38:04 | |
resign. I also wanted you to get us
to fill us in on Oxfam in Haiti, | 0:38:04 | 0:38:10 | |
because there has been a development
there. The Government has now said | 0:38:10 | 0:38:15 | |
they are not going to authorise
Oxfam Britain to work in Haiti for | 0:38:15 | 0:38:20 | |
the next two months. They want to do
an internal investigation into | 0:38:20 | 0:38:25 | |
whether any of the staff members
sexually abused miners in the | 0:38:25 | 0:38:28 | |
country. They said was a serious
error that Oxfam didn't come to them | 0:38:28 | 0:38:35 | |
immediately when they had
allegations of misconduct, and they | 0:38:35 | 0:38:38 | |
said that this was a violation of
the dignity of the Haitian people. | 0:38:38 | 0:38:44 | |
That investigation they say will
take about two months, and in the | 0:38:44 | 0:38:49 | |
meantime, Oxfam has said that they
are concerned that this could affect | 0:38:49 | 0:38:52 | |
their work in the country. In the
last couple of weeks, Oxfam and Save | 0:38:52 | 0:38:57 | |
the Children have been in the
spotlight, but either broader | 0:38:57 | 0:39:03 | |
indications for other organisations
in terms of sexually inappropriate | 0:39:03 | 0:39:07 | |
behaviour? This is one of the issues
the Secretary-General has taken on. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:11 | |
He want the UN to be seen as
transparent when it comes to | 0:39:11 | 0:39:15 | |
allegations of sexual abuse, and so
it is picked out as public record | 0:39:15 | 0:39:22 | |
the number of sexual assaults or
harassment allegations that | 0:39:22 | 0:39:26 | |
different parts of the UN family
get. We know it has affected UN | 0:39:26 | 0:39:30 | |
peacekeeping, the U in refugee
agency, and the Secretary-General | 0:39:30 | 0:39:36 | |
himself has acknowledged this is a
problem in need charity and NGO | 0:39:36 | 0:39:41 | |
sector. It underscores what we have
known from this past year that the | 0:39:41 | 0:39:48 | |
Ruby is no point, industry, sector,
walk of life that is immune from | 0:39:48 | 0:39:53 | |
sexual assault. Thank you very much. | 0:39:53 | 0:39:55 | |
Don't forget you can get much
more detail on our top | 0:39:55 | 0:40:02 | |
stories on our website. | 0:40:02 | 0:40:05 | |
I want to update you on a story we
have covered through the week on | 0:40:13 | 0:40:17 | |
outside source. Girls are missing in
Nigeria. We know the president has | 0:40:17 | 0:40:25 | |
sent eight team to this town. It is
next ought to another state where | 0:40:25 | 0:40:33 | |
over a 200 girls were taken in 2014.
The sky is the state governor and he | 0:40:33 | 0:40:38 | |
said some girls had been rescued,
but strangely that story is now | 0:40:38 | 0:40:43 | |
changing. -- this guide. Look at
this copy. Our colleagues have been | 0:40:43 | 0:40:47 | |
helping us. | 0:40:47 | 0:40:48 | |
Our correspondent discovered this
story as well. We have met almost a | 0:41:07 | 0:41:13 | |
wall of silence from authorities
today. Whether it is the Army, the | 0:41:13 | 0:41:18 | |
State Government or federal
Government. The only information we | 0:41:18 | 0:41:21 | |
have had today as con from the
parents who has told us what the | 0:41:21 | 0:41:25 | |
governor said to them. Very little
information coming out, almost | 0:41:25 | 0:41:30 | |
nothing today, about the whereabouts
of these girls. We heard from the | 0:41:30 | 0:41:34 | |
army over the past few weeks, they
have been recording significant | 0:41:34 | 0:41:40 | |
successes against Bogel her ram
since December, but they have | 0:41:40 | 0:41:44 | |
reclaim to a lot of hardware,
munitions and trucks. We saw an | 0:41:44 | 0:41:50 | |
attack of this size. We haven't seen
attacks quite as co-ordinated as | 0:41:50 | 0:41:55 | |
this in quite some time, so this
flies in the face of ever being that | 0:41:55 | 0:41:58 | |
the Army, the authorities and the
Government are trying to tell is | 0:41:58 | 0:42:02 | |
about the capacity and the
Government's operation against them | 0:42:02 | 0:42:07 | |
stands. We tried to bring you the
biggest global stories every day. | 0:42:07 | 0:42:13 | |
Let's bring you to North Africa now. | 0:42:13 | 0:42:20 | |
Egyptians will vote in presidential
elections next month. | 0:42:20 | 0:42:23 | |
The former army
chief Abdel Fattah al Sisi is almost | 0:42:23 | 0:42:25 | |
certainly going to get re-elected. | 0:42:25 | 0:42:26 | |
Human rights groups say
the election will be a farce - | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
and you can see where
they're coming from. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:31 | |
Serious challengers have been
disqualified, arrested or have been | 0:42:31 | 0:42:33 | |
pressured to drop out. | 0:42:33 | 0:42:34 | |
Orla Guerin is our
correspondent in Cairo. | 0:42:34 | 0:42:40 | |
Welcome to Egypt. Enticing images of
timeless hospitality and ancient | 0:42:40 | 0:42:46 | |
attractions. The picture postcard
view the authorities are keen to | 0:42:46 | 0:42:50 | |
promote. But there is another Egypt,
a military backed regime. Where | 0:42:50 | 0:42:58 | |
dreams of freedom have been crushed.
And human rights groups say at least | 0:42:58 | 0:43:06 | |
1500 people have vanished from the
streets in the last four years. | 0:43:06 | 0:43:12 | |
Egypt's disappeared. This is one of
them. She is 23 and wants to open | 0:43:12 | 0:43:20 | |
her own business. Her mother says
she and her daughter were jailed in | 0:43:20 | 0:43:27 | |
2014 after being arrested near a
protest. She says they were in the | 0:43:27 | 0:43:31 | |
wrong place at the wrong time, and
were later acquitted. Then in 2016, | 0:43:31 | 0:43:36 | |
her daughter was detained at a
police checkpoint, she tells me. She | 0:43:36 | 0:43:41 | |
was dumped by the roadside after 28
days. A change to girl. | 0:43:41 | 0:43:55 | |
But her legal papers show the
anguished and not end there. As her | 0:44:13 | 0:44:21 | |
daughter were struggling to recover,
she disappeared for the second time | 0:44:21 | 0:44:25 | |
last April. Her mother says
neighbours saw her being taken by | 0:44:25 | 0:44:28 | |
armed and masked police. | 0:44:28 | 0:44:30 | |
Her treasured keepsakes are just as
she left them. Her mother refuses to | 0:44:51 | 0:44:55 | |
give up hope. She says her family
has done nothing wrong and she will | 0:44:55 | 0:45:00 | |
speak out for her daughter even if
she hangs Fred. -- hangs for it. We | 0:45:00 | 0:45:09 | |
wanted to ask the authorities about
her daughter's case, but they | 0:45:09 | 0:45:12 | |
wouldn't give us an interview. In
the past, they have denied there are | 0:45:12 | 0:45:17 | |
enforced disappearances and
widespread human rights abuses. Most | 0:45:17 | 0:45:21 | |
who are taking turn up in custody
facing terrorism charges. Human | 0:45:21 | 0:45:26 | |
rights groups say anyone who opposes
the regime is at risk. They say | 0:45:26 | 0:45:33 | |
Abdel Fattah al Sisi is waging war
on dissent and this is a dark hour | 0:45:33 | 0:45:37 | |
for Egypt. | 0:45:37 | 0:45:43 | |
The study led by Oxford University
has found anti-depressants work. | 0:45:43 | 0:45:47 | |
It's published in The Lancet -
21 drugs were considered | 0:45:47 | 0:45:49 | |
via the data from over 500 trials. | 0:45:49 | 0:45:51 | |
Sima Kotecha has more. | 0:45:51 | 0:46:01 | |
There were times, you know, I felt
really low, to the point I didn't | 0:46:03 | 0:46:07 | |
want to be around anyone or anybody
or have any interaction | 0:46:07 | 0:46:09 | |
with family or friends. | 0:46:09 | 0:46:10 | |
There were times when I didn't
understand my position in life. | 0:46:10 | 0:46:20 | |
Jon needed help. | 0:46:23 | 0:46:26 | |
He was struggling to cope. | 0:46:26 | 0:46:27 | |
His doctor prescribed
antidepressants. | 0:46:27 | 0:46:33 | |
I still think there's a lot
of stigma around it, as to, | 0:46:33 | 0:46:36 | |
you know, are you weak
because you take them? | 0:46:36 | 0:46:38 | |
Are you are a nutnut
because you take them. | 0:46:38 | 0:46:40 | |
I had an image of Jack Nicholson
in One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest | 0:46:40 | 0:46:46 | |
at the end when he's a complete
and utter zombie and you lose | 0:46:46 | 0:46:49 | |
something about yourself,
something that makes you you. | 0:46:49 | 0:46:51 | |
And that's what I was concerned
about, you'd turn into zombie | 0:46:51 | 0:46:54 | |
without any feeling. | 0:46:54 | 0:46:55 | |
But the only way I can describe
it is that it gives you a kind | 0:46:55 | 0:46:58 | |
of buffer around some
of the negative thoughts | 0:46:58 | 0:47:00 | |
and your mind racing. | 0:47:00 | 0:47:07 | |
Today's report found that 21 of some
of the most common antidepressants | 0:47:07 | 0:47:10 | |
were more effective at treating
anxiety and depression | 0:47:10 | 0:47:12 | |
than dummy pills. | 0:47:12 | 0:47:13 | |
Those behind the report
as well as other GPs say the results | 0:47:13 | 0:47:16 | |
show that these tablets could help
more people cope with low moods. | 0:47:16 | 0:47:19 | |
For too long, healthcare
professionals have been denigrated | 0:47:19 | 0:47:21 | |
and slated for prescribing drugs
that they know will work. | 0:47:21 | 0:47:23 | |
So many patients tell us they work. | 0:47:23 | 0:47:25 | |
We only want to do this
for the best of our patients. | 0:47:25 | 0:47:28 | |
It is not about fobbing people off,
it is genuinely trying to help them. | 0:47:28 | 0:47:31 | |
In 2016, 65 million prescriptions
for antidepressants were issued | 0:47:31 | 0:47:33 | |
and the numbers are rising. | 0:47:33 | 0:47:34 | |
But some critics say
depression can be solved | 0:47:34 | 0:47:36 | |
through positive mental attitude. | 0:47:36 | 0:47:42 | |
You say you've been
on them for five years... | 0:47:42 | 0:47:46 | |
The research also outlines
which pills work best. | 0:47:46 | 0:47:52 | |
However, the authors are urging
people not to switch medication | 0:47:52 | 0:47:55 | |
before getting advice. | 0:47:55 | 0:47:57 | |
Hopefully it made me an easier
person to be around for my family. | 0:47:57 | 0:48:00 | |
Yeah, the plan is, in regular
consultation with my GP, | 0:48:00 | 0:48:03 | |
to wean myself off of them. | 0:48:03 | 0:48:04 | |
But that's got to be
when the time is right. | 0:48:04 | 0:48:14 | |
Saudi Arabia has announced it
will spend 64 billion dollars to | 0:48:23 | 0:48:25 | |
develop its entertainment industry. | 0:48:25 | 0:48:26 | |
Its General Entertainment Authority
has said over 220,000 jobs | 0:48:26 | 0:48:28 | |
in entertainment will be
created by 2030. | 0:48:28 | 0:48:34 | |
Bear in mind that figure
was 17,000 a year ago. | 0:48:34 | 0:48:42 | |
This all part of what's
called Vision 2030 - | 0:48:42 | 0:48:44 | |
it's the grand plan
of Prince Mohammed bin Salman or MBS | 0:48:44 | 0:48:47 | |
as everyone refers to him. | 0:48:47 | 0:48:48 | |
He's the son of King Salman -
and leading the drive | 0:48:48 | 0:48:51 | |
to diversify the Saudi economy. | 0:48:51 | 0:48:54 | |
Here's BBC Arabic's Hadya Al-alawi. | 0:48:54 | 0:49:02 | |
He is trying to shepherd the
businesses in his country from the | 0:49:02 | 0:49:08 | |
oil to the entertainment to
encourage little to spend more money | 0:49:08 | 0:49:11 | |
on that sector. Anyway, a lot of
Saudi Arabians travel to nearby golf | 0:49:11 | 0:49:17 | |
country such as Emirates to buy or
Abu Dhabi Bahrain do-gooder concerts | 0:49:17 | 0:49:24 | |
or have fun. They are trying to get
money out of the entertainment | 0:49:24 | 0:49:29 | |
business in a reserved way, keeping
the balance between keeping Saudi | 0:49:29 | 0:49:34 | |
Arabia as a reserved state, but at
the same time giving people that | 0:49:34 | 0:49:37 | |
kind of way of having fun in their
own country without having to go | 0:49:37 | 0:49:40 | |
across the Borders are else to do it
every weekend. How do you do it in a | 0:49:40 | 0:49:47 | |
reserved way, though? I saw a report
saying Ricky Martin might be coming, | 0:49:47 | 0:49:51 | |
and openly gay man with a very
sexualised routine when he performs, | 0:49:51 | 0:49:56 | |
had that fit in with Saudi Arabia
and its way of doing things? That | 0:49:56 | 0:50:00 | |
will be the main challenge, because
the problem is not just that there | 0:50:00 | 0:50:05 | |
are laws in the state that restrict
people from going to concerts, there | 0:50:05 | 0:50:09 | |
are no concerts in the country, but
also that is a social restriction of | 0:50:09 | 0:50:14 | |
rounded, so families who actually
want their kids or daughters to go | 0:50:14 | 0:50:24 | |
to concerts might face some kind of
backlash from the society around | 0:50:24 | 0:50:26 | |
them that they allowed their
daughters to do that. Also because | 0:50:26 | 0:50:28 | |
of sharia laws in the country there
is going to be religious backlash as | 0:50:28 | 0:50:31 | |
well. They are going to be mixing
females and males in the same | 0:50:31 | 0:50:36 | |
environment and we saw women
attending football matches in a | 0:50:36 | 0:50:39 | |
stadium, that is a largely dominated
environment by males. There will be | 0:50:39 | 0:50:44 | |
a lot of restrictions and challenges
around that. To allow people to | 0:50:44 | 0:50:49 | |
enjoy their time anyway that doesn't
actually go against their religion, | 0:50:49 | 0:50:54 | |
but at the same time opens the
society slightly and slowly towards | 0:50:54 | 0:50:58 | |
that change. It has happened in some
forms. Behind me as a picture of a | 0:50:58 | 0:51:05 | |
Greek artist has already performed.
Had that goal and how are the | 0:51:05 | 0:51:08 | |
dealing with these issues already?
As I mentioned? They are trying to | 0:51:08 | 0:51:15 | |
encourage people to open the society
a little, so when they allow artists | 0:51:15 | 0:51:19 | |
like that, who is not a sexy
performer... He is not Ricky Martin. | 0:51:19 | 0:51:26 | |
They are slowly introducing out into
the country in that way they are | 0:51:26 | 0:51:31 | |
hoping they can bring that change,
but let's not be completely | 0:51:31 | 0:51:34 | |
optimistic about it. We have to
accept this will be a difficult | 0:51:34 | 0:51:38 | |
mission, whatever the Government at
the family. There are so many | 0:51:38 | 0:51:44 | |
reservations around at that it's
going to be very, very difficult to | 0:51:44 | 0:51:47 | |
bring that change into the country.
Within that period of ten years, | 0:51:47 | 0:51:53 | |
maybe we will see it slowly moving,
but we cant expect it to happen | 0:51:53 | 0:51:56 | |
overnight. | 0:51:56 | 0:51:58 | |
We've been talking a lot
Black Panther the film because | 0:51:58 | 0:52:00 | |
of its extraordinary success. | 0:52:00 | 0:52:01 | |
We've a report now
on the Black Panther movement | 0:52:01 | 0:52:03 | |
of the 1960s and 70s in the US. | 0:52:03 | 0:52:05 | |
It fought an armed struggle
for racial justice | 0:52:05 | 0:52:07 | |
and black empowerment. | 0:52:07 | 0:52:08 | |
A new exhibit in New York focuses
on 20 former members | 0:52:08 | 0:52:11 | |
who remain in prison. | 0:52:11 | 0:52:12 | |
Here's Nada Tawfik. | 0:52:12 | 0:52:22 | |
It's been having a century since the
Black Panther marched through the | 0:52:22 | 0:52:27 | |
streets with Opera raised fists
crying out for power to the people | 0:52:27 | 0:52:29 | |
in their black berets and jackets.
Many of the black nationalists was | 0:52:29 | 0:52:36 | |
controversial figures remain
imprisoned today. They are the | 0:52:36 | 0:52:39 | |
subjects of artist Sylvia Dawson 's
macro new exhibition, | 0:52:39 | 0:52:44 | |
correspondence. -- Sofia Dawson. But
I think it's important to have | 0:52:44 | 0:52:48 | |
people whose stories have been
forgotten, to have them on the | 0:52:48 | 0:52:54 | |
outside for people who may be
experiencing their stories free | 0:52:54 | 0:52:58 | |
press time. Sophia this is about
passion. She has visited Black | 0:52:58 | 0:53:08 | |
Panther activist still incarcerated.
Even her technique is a nod to black | 0:53:08 | 0:53:12 | |
empowerment. I start on all black,
it is an act of protest, a political | 0:53:12 | 0:53:18 | |
statement, and also solidarity with
the Black Panther movement and | 0:53:18 | 0:53:21 | |
embracing the fact that the colour
black is beautiful. I think it is | 0:53:21 | 0:53:25 | |
will it run to have to pool B
Collins out of black service. | 0:53:25 | 0:53:28 | |
CROWD CHANT
They were black revolutionaries who | 0:53:28 | 0:53:34 | |
openly carried weapons. They said it
was to protect against police | 0:53:34 | 0:53:39 | |
brutality. To the FBI, they were
militants, to others, they were | 0:53:39 | 0:53:44 | |
freedom fighters. I didn't know that
freehold clinics and exist before | 0:53:44 | 0:53:49 | |
the Black Panther movement, I didn't
know that free breakfast programmes | 0:53:49 | 0:53:51 | |
didn't exist before the black and
moment. This exhibition weaves | 0:53:51 | 0:53:59 | |
personal stories with larger
societal issues that the Black | 0:53:59 | 0:54:03 | |
Panther movement was fighting. Since
severe Dawson started this, a number | 0:54:03 | 0:54:08 | |
of them have been released. They say
the same injustices they saw a | 0:54:08 | 0:54:13 | |
number of years ago are still
present. This was the leader of the | 0:54:13 | 0:54:17 | |
Black Panther in New York. He served
his time for charges of attempted | 0:54:17 | 0:54:22 | |
murder after gun battle with the
police. He was given a hefty | 0:54:22 | 0:54:27 | |
sentence for activism. The media are
always presented as is being | 0:54:27 | 0:54:33 | |
terrorists and Wales and of Ireland.
Unprovoked attacks on police. They | 0:54:33 | 0:54:40 | |
never talked about Hamley black men
and women and children were dying at | 0:54:40 | 0:54:47 | |
the hands of the police every day.
-- the media always presented us as | 0:54:47 | 0:54:52 | |
terrorists and wild and violent.
Sophia believes understanding how | 0:54:52 | 0:55:00 | |
past generations fought will help
today's activists pave the way Ford. | 0:55:00 | 0:55:06 | |
