welcome to outside source. donald trump has taken a break from his holidays to say this. north korea best not make any more threats to the united states. they will be met with fire and fury. a no—confidence vote in south africa ended like this. the vote of no—confidence in the president is accordingly negative. this is the eighth no—confidence motion the president has survived. google has fired an employee who wrote a controversial memo suggesting fewer women work there, because of their biological differences. dodgy greenhouse gas data could threaten the paris climate agreement, researchers have told the bbc. air monitoring stations like this one have detected large quantities of gas that hasn't been recorded in official inventories. and if you want to get in touch,

the hashtag is bbc 0s. welcome to outside source. we are starting this addition in the united states. take a listen to the reaction of donald trump here. north korea best not make any more threats to the united states. they will be met with fire and fury, like the world has never seen. he has been very threatening beyond a normal

statement and, as i said, they will be met with fire, fury and, frankly, fire power, the likes of which this world has never seen before. bissell begunin world has never seen before. bissell begun in the last two years when a number of news outlets including the washington post began reporting that us intelligence officials believe that north korea has successfully miniaturised nuclear warhead to fit into one of its missiles. we will go to washington to speak to jayne bryant. this is a big story and you can see why the president is exercised about it. yes, it is a big story and the speed at which north korea has miniaturised warhead to fit into one of these missiles which we know can reach the united states. they had a successful test of an

intercontinental ballistic missile in the last few weeks and that many experts say could reach los angeles, denver and even chicago, so it puts the us in a far more precarious position far more quickly than was expected. a lot of people thought this was inevitable butjust not yet. we have not had confirmation from the pentagon or any other us government agency that this report is true, but donald trump clearly has decided that it is. the reaction of mr trump, his talk of fire and fury is going to worry quite a few others, perhaps in the defence establishment. well, this administration has been giving mixed messages on north korea for quite a while. rex tillerson last week even suggested that talks might be on the table but that was then dismissed and donald trump has said that military action cannot be ruled out and there have been talks of regime change, but they are not

united in what they think is the right way forward for dealing with this very real threat and that is a problem when you have the president then indulging in rhetoric like this, because nobody really knows what it means. but it sounds pretty awful and pretty dire and nobody knows what the response is going to be from north korea and so this has reached a very precarious position indeed. iam indeed. i am curious about whether highly placed sources are really talking about the possibility of talks from north korea and recognising how it has got to where it is. it is hard to ta ke has got to where it is. it is hard to take that course of action without being called soft. indeed. the fact of the matter is that clearly the previous talks failed because north korea has not been deterred from its nuclear ambitions and we are where we are now, so critics will say that the

talks broke down ten years ago under the clinton and bush administrations could have paved the way for the situation that the us is now confronting. it is also very difficult to see what way forward the us has because none of the military options are good. north korea could strike against south korea could strike against south korea and there are also some 28,000 us troops stationed in south korea and so the ability for this crisis to escalate into something far worse is quite significant and a lot of asian countries also prefer further engagement rather than military options for obvious reasons so it is very difficult at this point to see where this is going and how it will end. thank you for bringing us up to date. in south africa jacob zuma is safe. just two hours ago, he survived

a motion of no—confidence in the south african parliament. here's the speaker of the parliament announcing the result. the total votes are 384. the yes, 177. the no, 198. cheering and shouting. and there were nine ab stanchions and therefore the vote of no—confidence in the president is accordingly negative. anc! so the president survived the vote.

you saw the jubilation inside the pros —— parliament but these are some things from outside. the president later addressed those crowds. i have just come to say thank you to all of you. those comrades who are in parliament who gave me their support from the membership and the supporters. they came in their numbers to demonstrate that the anc is there, it is powerful, it is big, it is difficult to defeat the anc. you can try. i am sure you know that today the vote of no confidence was number eight. always they try. that may give the impression of a nation celebrating.

but this is the eighth time that a no—confidence vote has been held since mr zuma took office in 2009. this time the vote was held in secret amidst fears of intimidation. earlier, we were seeing pictures like these. here you can see a protest march in cape town this morning that was being led by the opposition parties. they were on their way to parliament here. here they are gathered outside parliament and making their feelings very clear. not just parliament and making their feelings very clear. notjust cape town either, this is pretoria. people we re either, this is pretoria. people were gathered and dancing in the streets of the city of pretoria. they were also tried to make their point. they wanted him to go, but what happened is parliament, and this is the parliament chamber itself and here for two hours opposition parties in the ruling anc traded barbs and insults and political debate in two hours before casting their ballots. there has been a whole team in south africa

watching this story and thinking about its implications. clearly presidentjacob clearly president jacob zuma after surviving this eighth no—confidence vote is now on his ninth life. there was no way he could be compromising now. he feels victorious, he never gives up. remember, president zuma stayed in prison for ten years on robben island with nelson mandela while fighting against white minority rule, so he does not give up minority rule, so he does not give up easily. most people see this as a loss for him, given what has happened with anc mps who voted with the opposition, but for himself he sees this as a victory. he is buoyant and he hopes to get to december. there are some rumours that he had offered in the caucus this morning, he had offered to resign, but there is no confirmation whether that is true or not. there

will be a new attempt in australia this week to revive a compulsory vote on the issue of gay marriage. it will be the second time that the ruling conservative government has tried to push through the vote, having already been rejected by the country's upper house. it has also announced a back—up plan which is a non—compulsory postal vote. the opposition is in support of gay marriage but doesn't like i proposition. weddings may be all about forming a union, but in australia there are few political issues as divisive as same—sex marriage. 0pinion polls suggest that public supports making it legal but for many years the politicians have disagreed over if and how that should happen. as i am sure you are aware, this ceremony is taking place under uk law... in the

meantime, only a few couples, like an incitement, have been able to marry by exploiting loopholes in the law forforeign marry by exploiting loopholes in the law for foreign passport holders. campaigners for same—sex marriage oppose a compulsory vote claiming it would give a voice to homophobia. facing parliamentary defeat today the government announced an alternative, postal vote. the government announced an alternative, postalvote. our preference is to have a compulsory attendance and legislation to that effect will come back before the senate we hope this week. if that we re senate we hope this week. if that were to fail, the government believes that we have a legal and constitutional way forward to give the australian people a say on whether or not the definition of marriage should be changed through non—legislated voluntary postal plebiscite. the results would not be binding and at a cost of 100 million us dollars the opponents have caused

it -- us dollars the opponents have caused it —— called it a waste of money. b beauty really be problems with this. it is the weakest thing i have seen ina long it is the weakest thing i have seen in a long time. we are doing an opinion poll on what is a basic human right. if you cannot show leadership there, you cannot lead the nation. for those holding out for a change in law it is hard to know what impact the vote will have. lam know what impact the vote will have. iaman know what impact the vote will have. i am an eternal optimist and i like to think that one day we were live on an equal society right marry my partner fa wish. government ministers say the vote could mean saying i do to same—sex marriage before the year is out but for those couple still waiting to exchange vows, the celebrations are muted. stay with us on 0utside source. still to come... google has fired an employee who wrote a controversial memo about workplace diversity. in it he said men had a higher drive for status than women did. we'll talk to our technology reporter zoe kleinman.

i will chat about that our technology reporter. a man discovered with a pipe bomb in his hand luggage at manchester airport has been found guilty of having to explosives with intent of endangering life. the jury heard that nadeem mohammed, who's 43, wanted to board a ryanairflight to italy. the device was made from the tube of a marker pen. our correspondent dan whitworth has the details. this case was all about nadeem muhammad, 43, from bury. he wept in the dock at manchester crown court when he was found guilty of possession of explosives with intent to endanger life when he tried to board a ryanairjet flying to northern italy injanuary. he was found guilty of trying to carry a pipe bomb on board that plane. that plane was a boeing 737 800 and can carry up to 200 passengers and crew, so the impact of potentially exploding a device in the tight confines of that cabin could have been devastating.

there are serious questions over security here, this is 0utside source live from the bbc newsroom. 0ur lead story: jacob zuma has survived an eighth vote of no confidence in him. president trump has said north korean missiles will be met with fire and fury and power, the likes of which the world has not been seen. an 6.5 magnitude earthquake has killed at least five people and injured more than 60 in china's south—western province of sichuan, officials say. there are fears the number of fatalities could rise to as many as 100. iran, president hassan rahane has unveiled his new cabinet. it is all male. this is one of the most watched videos on our website. a woman has escaped serious injury after appearing to be pushed by a jogger into the path of a bus.

this is cctv of the incident, which happened on putney bridge in west london. internet giant google has fired a male employee after he suggested that men were better suited for tech jobs than women. james damore circulated an internal memo at the weekend criticising google for creating a politically correct monoculture which prevented honest discussion of diversity. google hit back in all—staff email saying damore had crossed the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace. the bbc‘s zoe kleinman has been following the story. what happened was a guy called james damore published a memo over the weekend in which he set out reasons

why he felt the diversity policy that google were perhaps not working and he felt that they needed more debate. he was very clear to say that he does not believe that diversity should be married but he feels that things have gone too far the other way and he said that men and women are biologically different and women are biologically different and perhaps that makes men more, sort of, prone to pursue jobs and perhaps that makes men more, sort of, prone to pursuejobs in technology and leadership, because of the way they think and the way they operate, and he said that this isa they operate, and he said that this is a debate that needs to be had. the memo went viral. as you can imagine, it caused a lot of outrage but he also got a lot of support from people who said it is absolutely right and we should be discussing this. how are we going about this, the wrong way? what is the situation barack 0bama how do we address the diversity gap? he said the gender gap is not necessarily sexism and it is a

conversation that she really wanted to have but it hasn't gone so well for him because he has lost hisjob over it and the google chief executive said that what he wrote goes against the rules of conduct of the company so he is out and google has a new vice president of diversity who also sent a memo saying these views are unacceptable, so saying these views are unacceptable, so it has cost him hisjob, but it has sort of once again highlighted how much the tech sector is struggling with this diversity issue in which the statistics of women working in tech are poor, even in the tech giants. if you look at these statistics of companies like google, facebook, amazon, and the techjobs, google, facebook, amazon, and the tech jobs, you google, facebook, amazon, and the techjobs, you are google, facebook, amazon, and the tech jobs, you are looking at ten or 20% women, it is very unbalanced and has been for a long time. lots of companies are throwing a lot of money at this with a lot of initiatives and outreach programmes but it doesn't seem to shift things as dramatically as people hoped. the fact that he has been sacked, and perhaps it was inevitable given how viral the memo went, has that become a political debate in itself because his whole issue was that we

are not allowed to have a healthy debate about diversity and this shows that. exactly that, a lot of people stood up exactly that, a lot of people stood up to him and said how can google promised to promote free speech when one of its own employees as a contented one of its own employees as a co nte nted to one of its own employees as a contented to ignite that debate and been fired and that does not promote free speech at all, itjust is getting rid of the viewpoint that google doesn't like. he says he has heard from a lot of people and a lot of staff members who thank him for saying this but they do not feel confident about voicing support publicly because they are worried about repercussions. it is interesting to note that he has had a couple of job interesting to note that he has had a couple ofjob offers, including from wikileaks. julian assange tweeted that he would be delighted to have him as a member of staff. a bbc investigation has revealed many countries around the world are under—reporting how much greenhouse gases they're emitting into the atmosphere. one example highlighted was thejungfraujoch swiss air monitoring station. as you can see, the station sits close to the italian border. and high up in the swiss alps.

between 2008 and 2010, this station recorded levels of a gas called hfc—23 coming from a location in northern italy. the gas is nearly 15,000 times more warming to the atmosphere than c02. scientists at the station estimated 60—80 tonnes of the gas was being emitted from the location in italy each year. italy's official records submitted to the un were well below that two to three tonnes. the bbc‘s matt mcgrath carried out the investigation and i spoke with him earlier about the sheer difficulty of collecting reliable data on these greenhouse gases. the big difficulty here is the amount of data that is out there and how difficult a problem this is today because there are huge amounts of gases come from all sorts of

sources, man—made and natural, and scientists struggle at times to quantify those gases and this is an even bigger problem in the developing countries than it is in the richer world where we have been doing it for 20 years. so in countries like russia and china there is reluctance to allow international scientists to take data? all of these countries have a history of being very cautious about data and we saw in our story how russian scientists on the russian government wants to see all the data that the german scientist that are monitoring siberia, they want to see at first i may have to put it on a cd-rom at first i may have to put it on a cd—rom so they give it to the government before they can take it out the country so this secrecy, this question of keeping information quiet and private goes against the spirit of the paris climate accord and tan makes it a lot more difficult to achieve those goals if eve ryo ne difficult to achieve those goals if everyone holds back the real story in the real information. this is your investigation and you have been digging into these data gaps, but isn't it about by a political gift to those who

don't this big effort to tackle climate change? in some ways it does but in some ways it will redouble the efforts of politicians to try and make sense of this. the big difficulty here is that you have 150 new countries who signed up under the paris climate accord who need to do boring stuff like accounting for all of their emissions and they don't have these people the technology or the money and they were counted on big countries like the united states and others to help with that in those countries have massive uncertainties in their emissions and the big problem in all of that is ultimately when we sit down and work out who was doing what and how much stuff is being emitted, if we can't really verify and know exactly what is coming out, we really don't know where we are and how we are doing, and how much progress we're making, and how much progress we're making, and that is a real difficulty this erroneous accounting. you mentioned america and donald trump wants to pull the us out of the agreement but there was another development in the new york times today. give us an idea of what it

says about climate change and america. this report is essentially a view from the scientists of america, the leading federal scientists from federal offices, they all say climate change is real and man—made and having an effect in the united states right now and temperatures are going up by more than they have in the last 1500 years so it is a real challenge to the president who has expressed a lot of uncertainty about this and basically said that the science is divided but the scientists say that they are not. and you can find more on matt's investigation on the bbc website. now for some business news. we have heard that jacob zuma has survived another no—confidence vote but where does that leave businesses and the economy in south africa? well, in recession. with an unemployment rate of almost 28%. here is an entrepreneur and investor from the south african version of dragon ‘s den. if there is a single failing from me that we have seen particular

this president it is that under his watch we have seen unemployment go up watch we have seen unemployment go up and poverty levels rise and we have seen up and poverty levels rise and we have seen access to up and poverty levels rise and we have seen access to nutrition and health care drop, said those have been very serious issues are not the least of which two add onto that has in truth been that our education system is in tatters and there was a lot that is going right but you cannot argue that those kind of unemployment levels do not bode well for social stability and as a result you are seeing for social stability and as a result you are seeing some for social stability and as a result you are seeing some social instability. service delivery protests, etc, and that makes it difficult to trade. here is a funny story from san francisco. not far from the golden gate bridge. what we have to show you is about one of the most famous and exclusive and wealthy communities on the west coast. i wanted to bring up this picture, it looks gorgeous and very special and she she. apparently the residents here did not pay their

taxes so residents here did not pay their taxes so someone residents here did not pay their taxes so someone bought the street from under them. i think we can now go and talk to samir hussein. tell us more go and talk to samir hussein. tell us more about this. well, just when you thought real estate cannot get any more expensive in some of the big american cities, the street that you are literally living on camby bought from right under your feet and that is what happened. a p pa re ntly and that is what happened. apparently the business taxes were not paid for this particular street and asa not paid for this particular street and as a result, to try and recoup the lost costs san francisco held an auction and in that auction two real estate investors scooped up the property sight unseen for $90,000. that actually happened about two yea rs that actually happened about two years ago and now fast forward to now when some of these real estate representatives, who were representing them, had gone to talk to some of the neighbours, that is when the neighbours really caught wind of the fact that their street was actually sold. i guess that

means the new owners can rent it back to them and make a lot of money. exactly. let us say, there are 120 parking spots on this street, they can now charge for those parking spots and they can charge for use of any of the parks or public areas around there. of course, the neighbourhood association is contesting this, and they want the sale to be rescinded because they didn't know about it and fundamentally about the taxes, and fundamentally about the taxes, and we wanted to know how much they actually owed. $994. for that they lost their street. thank you for joining us bringing us that mini saga there. thank you very much and with us here. we have a lot more to come in the next edition. hello. plenty happening across the

globe in terms of weather but we start off in central america and mexico where we are talking a tropical storm. it has made landfall and it arrived in the early hours of tuesday, across the yucca tim clayton insular. it is starting to become quite ratty and it is weakening off substantially. it has a sting in its tail in terms of heavy rainfall and it is expected to continue to push in a westerly direction where it may well strengthen to harry kane status briefly as it moves across the warmer waters of the gulf of mexico. it is one to keep a close eye on because it could make landfall across the east coast of mexico. we will keep you updated on its progress. in north america things are progress. in north america things a re pretty progress. in north america things are pretty stormy in the north of florida and across the carolinas and into georgia. by contrast in the north west there are heatwave conditions and there is a glimmer of

good news as temperatures even little in the next few days, and thatis little in the next few days, and that is certainly welcome news for the significant wildfires that we have got there. there has been poor air quantity have got there. there has been poor airquantity —— have got there. there has been poor air quantity —— quality in recent days. the heatwave across europe has ended with a dramatic bang across the alps. we have seen heavy thundery downpours which have led to significant localised flooding through the valleys of austria in the alpine region here. you can see that from these frontal systems that move through in the last few days, bringing significant rainfall totals for quite a time. it stays unsettled across north—west europe, with wet and windy weather at times but these areas of low pressure, the boundary between cooler air to the north—west and not

quite as hot into western europe, and that is squeezing the heatwave conditions over towards the south—east mediterranean. we still have temperatures in italy of around 38 degrees and this is one of the reasons that people who live in the city of rome move out the seaside areas. you can see temperatures across the balkans are down to the mainland of greece and the greek isles are still likely to be mid to high 30s. across to the monsoon and we still have significant rainfall pushing up through bangladesh. it affects the himalayas and into north—west india and we could see in the next five or seven day period as much as a thousand millimetres of rain and that could cause potential with flooding and also significant landslides. we will update you on that progress in the next few days. closer to home and across the uk a significant divide here with a line of rain stretching across dorset towards the east midlands and lincolnshire. the north and south east have quite conditions. take care. hello i am philippa thomas and this is outside source. donald trump has taken a break from his

is outside source. donald trump has taken a breakfrom his holidays is outside source. donald trump has taken a break from his holidays to say this. north korea had best not make any more threats to the united states. they will be met with fire, and fury. a vote of no—confidence injacob zuma in south africa ended like this. a vote of no-confidence is accordingly negatives. this is the eighth no—confidence vote that the president has the vibe. meanwhile, counting is underway in the general in kenya.
