9:02 pm
country, the united states has the right to control who enters the country, and who would cause us harm. this protects the american people and lawful immigrants, putting in place the screening and vetting process for six countries. three are state sponsors of terrorism, the others have served as havens for terrorists, losing control to groups like al-qaeda and isis, and others. it is now down to six, because iraq is of this new version of the travel ban. this is the secretary of state explaining the secretary of state explaining the change. iraq is an important ally, and the fight to defeat isis.
9:03 pm

9:04 pm
states state department. i suppose the biggest question, whether there have been sufficient changes, but this cannot also be blocked by the courts? it has certainly been a skill back of the provisions that got this executive order to court in the first place. it was a challenge on the grounds of religious discrimination, and some movement on that. this executive order no longer prioritises minority religions, that was seen prioritises minority religions, that was seen as prioritises minority religions, that was seen as prioritising christians. that language has been dropped. but the six countries, still on the ban, after iraq was removed, still majority muslim. it has been said that it majority muslim. it has been said thatitis majority muslim. it has been said that it is still discrimination on the basis of religion. the other
9:05 pm
main issue, was one of the questions about processing being violated for refugees, and those who had legal paperwork, permanent residence visas. with they had the right to use them. that had also been addressed. this new executive order, it is forward—looking, looking at those who have to make applications, so they have cover their backs but i think we can still expect some challenges at courts. and we saw the crew when taking stage, some evidence he has been able to exert influence on the second issue, in a way that he was not able first time? to yes, and notjust him but the other agencies, because opening executive order to get everyone by surprise. it wasjust ruled out without any preparation, and many people not sure what was going on. the waiters have said that they have consulted with government lawyers,
9:06 pm
the state department, and homeland security. also the department of justice. and they have major that the leaders of those, at front and centre to announce that. something rex tillerson mentioned was the fact that iraq had been lifted from the ban, it was an effort to work with the iraqi government, to meet the standards that the united states was seeking. but obviously, rex tillerson and the pentagon had obviously been talking about how putting iraq on the list was a bad idea, because they have been coordinating against islamic state. some influence there as well. thank you. opposition to this new travel ban as you would expect. we have been mentioning the american civil liberties union. but it is worth
9:07 pm

9:11 pm
backing of all the party's senior figures. one of those had wanted a plan b, but the most obvious disappeared to do. but he came out and said this. i have no intention to engage in partisan negotiations, andi to engage in partisan negotiations, and i can confirm once and for that iam not and i can confirm once and for that i am not going to be a candidate for the presidency. this is what i will say to nicolas sarkozy, and francois fillon if they wish to meet me. and the analysis and paris. this is the definitive one, that francois fillon has won the battle. the internal battle, and he is going to be the candidate for the republicans in the selection. and no other option, francois fillon has made it clear
9:12 pm
that he thought he had a legitimacy, a base of support and he feels he is legally innocent. the partyjust did not have means, options, ideas, to counter. they have just had a meeting at the top level, and president of the senate said that we are with francois fillon, the chapter is over and we move. but the real battle is what lies ahead. and he has lost the republican party, it has been such a disastrous month for the republican party since the affair broke out. nlc francois fillon has shot down, maybe too far but he has gone down found as we know, whoever gets second, is most
9:13 pm
likely to win. unless you get some sort of major turnaround, a gaffe, u nless sort of major turnaround, a gaffe, unless somehow the republican party can find it within themselves to get to the united front, and these allegations and charges against francois fillon quarterly, that is at. it is a long shot because point about this, the judicial fiat still there. next week going to go before a judge. it is going to be news. opponents are going to remain timber at the beginning he said i cannot imagine any candidate remaining as a candidate, but here he is doing just that. the hypocrisy is going to keep coming back. that must have terrible effect. we will have extensive coverage of the presidential campaign, and this week we are going to be live from the netherlands for the dutch elections. in a few

minutes, we will be speaking to bbc arabic. significant stories relating to the islamic state group, one from raqqa, one from mosul. a senior british police officer has announced that 13 terror attacks have been stopped over 14 years. it was also said that over the same period, more than 500 life counterterror investigations at any time. the home secretary amber rudd was in parliament to answer questions but reminded the public she can also —— they can also help prevent attacks by reporting information. they can also help prevent attacks by reporting informationlj they can also help prevent attacks by reporting information. i will happilyjoin him by reporting information. i will happily join him in by reporting information. i will happilyjoin him in commending the announcements made by mark rowley and the work done in general by
9:15 pm
counterterrorist officers. it is essential that we need to work closely with the diesel that everybody plays a part in countering this vile crime. the top story, president trump has signed a new executive order imposing a ban on travel is from six mainly muslim countries. iraq has been off the list after taken additional vetting measures agreed. and the retired police officer in the philippines has testified that he killed nearly 200 people as part ofa he killed nearly 200 people as part of a day squad went to the president. the president was the city mayor at the time. that his
9:16 pm
from the bbc world service. ukraine has brought a case against russia, accusing moscow of illegally annexed in crimea and sponsoring terrorism, and the us defence department are going to look into allegations that a number of marines shared naked photos of female colleagues on facebook. significant setbacks for the islamic state group today. we can concentrate on mosul, the last stronghold and as they discussed government forces are trying to reca ptu re government forces are trying to recapture the city. they have taken an important bridge. the freedom bridge, and kurdish forces also backing up the crimes that it has fallen to the government. the reason
9:17 pm
it matters, we have got the situation in the city when the east is controlled by the government forces, the west still buy islamic state. this bridgejoins the territory. the second development, raqqa. the centre of operations. reports that syrian militia has cut of the last main road out of the city. the plan has long been to encircle raqqa, and if islamic state militants want to get it, they are going to have to cross the river. the situation is complicated because you have got different entries competing. actually, this is the most difficult
9:18 pm
pa rt actually, this is the most difficult part of this battle, it is not only the battle of eliminating the so—called islamic state from raqqa but it is also how to draft the future of the bounce up, —— balance of power, trying to mediate the russians and the government forces. all meeting now around another city. trying to establish this balance, by looking at the map. you can understand how difficult and complex the situation is. tell me about the militia, i have seen it described as american backed. syria democratic forces. ypg kurdish. and quality and
9:19 pm
those are tribes. these were trained by the united states, in order to go to my pretty, but you have also the shield backed by the turkish, including it is complicated, but it is the cottage power forces.|j including it is complicated, but it is the cottage power forces. i have to ask you about donald trump's proposed travel ban, the headline announcement is that iraq has been taken of that list of countries. i assume that is going to be popular with bbc arabic viewers? definitely. we thought it was ridiculous, when
9:20 pm
you had a number of americans on the ground. this was a decision that was highly criticised and definitely this is going to be a release for iraqis and other nations, included in this. we want to talk about a ta keover in this. we want to talk about a takeover at the car industry, psa, the french company that owns citreon, has bought general motors mean british operation for 2 billion. some of the workers at the vauxhall plant. from the point of view of those who worked here, i think it is the uncertainty, since we heard about this proposal from
9:21 pm
psa to take over vauxhall, from gm. we do not know exactly what impact it is going to have on them. and the other thing that is stressful, it is outside their control. they know that they are among the most efficient of the 24 plants and they know that they are efficient, the sequels that they have got are guaranteed in production for another eight years. but what they cannot control, the circumstances and conditions brexit. are we can get an american invective. why does this make sense for gm? basically, gm looking at what is in front of them but it is just not performing as well across europe. and they are going to invest this money in other things, new technology, going to be looking at driverless cars. it

9:24 pm
brian gibbons used his watch to tap on pipes and alert his rescuers. they came seven hours later. with the screams and the shouts and everything else, and unfortunately some people didn't make it. and the reason i'm talking to you today is because i think people need to know what happened because of the 193 that didn't make it. sorry... it gets me a bit. three decades on, the legacy of the herald's loss is its capacity to fill a church with family and friends. 193 victims, 193 names read out. amongst them the aunt and uncle of kim spooner, then eight years of age, but still able to recall her family's night of anguish. my goodness, i remember
9:25 pm
it so vividly. didn't really process what it meant at the time, to be honest. but sitting up all night waiting to hear them call, waiting and hoping they would get in touch. and it didn't happen. to the lasting regret of kim and many families, no one was ever prosecuted for the herald disaster. today her salvage bell was finally returned to the harbour that the herald had set sail for but never reached. and more information on what happened 30 years ago online from the bbc news. plenty of severe weather to talk
