welcome to outside source. we begin in south africa. winnie mandela has died aged 81. decades she fought apartheid alongside her nelson mandela. people have gathered at her home in soweto to mourn a woman known as the mother of the nation. three months of strikes on french railway itself started. emmanuel macron is taking on labour reform challenges. we also look at a new space mission. plus, the bbc once an equal number of men and women as experts on its news programmes. we explain our role in that announcement. winnie mandela has died at the age of 81. she was a giant of the

struggle against apartheid. we remember her as the former wife of nelson mandela. here they are with their hands raised, hand—in—hand, as mr mandela ended his imprisonment in 1990. but many —— winnie mandela was a force in her own right, facing down racist rule while being continually harassed by the state. here is the south african president, cyril ramaphosa, standing outside the mandela home in soweto. the death of winnie mandela is a great loss in that she has been one of the strongest women in our struggle, who suffered immensely. who was imprisoned. who was banished. who was treated very badly. separated not only from her husband, from her

children as well, and her people. but notwithstanding all this, she remained strong. she remained determined. she was courageous. a few meters from the president was milton and cosy of the bbc. i spoke to him earlier. tonight people are mourning the passing of winnie mandela, their leader in the anti—apartheid struggle. but also, they are celebrating a life well lived. as you can see behind me, there are throngs of people who have come from all parts of south africa to pay their respects to the mandela home. to sing songs of freedom. the songs of nostalgia, where they were in bondage under apartheid. and winnie mandela and all the other leaders of the anti—apartheid struggle led them out of that. that

was in 1994. struggle led them out of that. that was “119911. democracy struggle led them out of that. that was in 1994. democracy was introduced. you are so right, winnie mandela was not just introduced. you are so right, winnie mandela was notjust famous introduced. you are so right, winnie mandela was not just famous for being married to nelson mandela. she was an anti—apartheid activist in her own right. she fought for women's writes. she was one of the first black social workers who qualified here in south africa. you can tell through just the story that there was a desire from deep within her to help those who are downtrodden. whether in politics or social work. it was interesting to hear the president say that you will be giving a full national funeral on the 14th? -- she will be given a full national funeral. yes the 14th? -- she will be given a full nationalfuneral. yes indeed. that is to be expected. insofar as funerals of those who fought against

white minority rule, here in south africa it doesn't get better than this. it doesn't get bigger than this. it doesn't get bigger than this. winnie mandela in south africa was royalty, in spite of all the controversies she found herself engulfed in, because she did have some controversies, truth be told. however, her contribution towards liberating your own people and fighting for the struggles of others beyond the african continent... i remember seeing benazir bhutto who came from pakistan right here. her connections were fur beyond just the anti—apartheid struggle. i also understand that winnie mandela... she kept nelson mandela's name alive when he was in prison. she was left asa when he was in prison. she was left as a young single mother with two

young girls. today, all of that history is culminating here with all history is culminating here with all his songs that the people are singing. i think we can be confident those songs will go long into the night. if you're travelling in france in the next few weeks, things could get complicated. the french rail unions are going to strike. and there are many more is to come. these are passengers in paris desperately trying to get on trains while those strains were still running. this is a roaring campaign by the unions. walk—outs are scheduled two days out of every five. we spotted this on one of the train company's websites. these are all strike dates. it is not a pretty picture. it could go intojune not a pretty picture. it could go into june although there

not a pretty picture. it could go intojune although there could be a deal before that. the rail unions have been at the centre of nationwide strikes. this was last month. public sector workers from a number of different industries were involved. they were all protesting against president macron‘s plans to cut the number of state workers and introduce merit—based pay. out of all of those sectors, it is fair to say the rail workers are putting up the fiercest resistance. we saw this opinion poll which showed that 72% of french people think the government will prevail against the rail unions. 46% of the public back the workers. 53% back the government. this is dividing france. i have been talking to a bbc reporter about why the president is focusing on the railways. the railway has historically been a

topic that nobody wanted to touch on. jacques chirac managed not to touch anything in terms of reforms. nicolas sarkozy torched a little bit about the retirement age. but this time he wants full reform. he wants to reform the stature of the railwayman. it is a whole generation he wants to move. he wants to touch upona he wants to move. he wants to touch upon a lot of benefits we have. lifetime guarantee, job employment. automatic 2% of salaries increased. automatic 2% of salaries increased. a lot of reforms they have been attached to two for many years. he is taking the risk of trying to reform the whole system. some of the workers are going on strike. can they rely on support from elsewhere in the public sector? the problem is

that recently we have had bad press. there were a few incidents during holiday when the train station were not working. that is why the unions are saying if emmanuel macron goes ahead with his reform, the service will be even worse. with a bit of support, but not that much —— there isa support, but not that much —— there is a bit of support, but not that much. i think people are fed up with strikes. the challenge for president macron is to use the political power he has. he did well in parliamentary elections as well? he did very well. but if he maintains his position and leaves the situation —— lets the situation gets worse, he may have less support from the population. i know he is willing to give a bit of leeway but it may not work. it may not be enough to get more support. i think everybody from the unions to

macron, they are all trying to see who else will blink and who will stand down. is it fair to say that the french are more tolerant of strikes and the disruption they cause than perhaps other countries, because there are more strikes in france? there are more strikes, even though there are less unions than in england, for example. it is not tolerance, but it is true it is part of french affairs. every year we have to do with the fact we are going to have strikes one way or another. it is not something we're happy about. we still complain about it. next, we the talk about china. china's turn to introduce tariff hikes. up to 25% will be added to 128 different us imports. that's a direct response to president donald trump's tariffs on steel and aluminium that he introduced last month. the chinese will be raising duty on american wine by 15%. on frozen pork by 25% additional tariff.

on top of that there would be rises on scrap aluminium and steel bars. the white house has responded. it has put out this statement... needless to say, the chinese would not agree with that analysis. next, let me show you the reaction of one big us farming organisation. there are concerns there will be implications on those people who grow these products, who sell these products, and they can see reduced sales that can come back and be reduced prices for both the farmers and the people involved in the value chain across the country. it is of concern to us agriculture that this is starting. we hope this is the kind of thing that can get resolved

before the retaliation goes on for a long period of time, or potentially that it escalates into other products. if you think this looks like a trade war, the president is not concerned. this is a tweet from a month ago... it may not be that easy. the chinese tariffs will affect 3 billion dollars worth of goods and they start today. here's ashleyjohnson from the national bureau we have seen some interesting remarks made recently about the benefits of trade worse. when you start implementing tariffs back and forth, it has rippling effect on the economy. this will targetjob creation, a key component of this administration's goals. we don't see

many positive outcomes. here's steve mcdonell in hong kong. some people would be worried about it. china threatened to put its own tariffs on and that is what it said. starting right now we've got 128 us companies, 15% tariff on 120 of them, 25% tariff on eight of them. the problem is this is in response to the first series of tariffs from washington. america has already promised a second round. so we can expect the chinese to respond in kind. that is why analysts are saying they're worried about this tit—for—tat escalation of tariffs leading to a global trade war, which could drag in other countries, especially in europe and in asia. inafew especially in europe and in asia. in a few minutes on outside source we will have a look at what those

exchanges between china and the us are doing to the markets. we are in new york. the director of public prosecutions, alison saunders, is to stand down in october. the head of the crown prosecution service will leave at the end of her five—year term after a series of recent controversies, including the collapse of a number of high profile rape trials. speaking on radio 4's today programme, ms saunders addressed some of the criticisms she has faced during her time as dpp. i think they're incredibly inaccurate and show —— it shows a lack of knowledge of the work that goes on across the crown prosecution service. i have 6000 staff who work really ha rd everyday. service. i have 6000 staff who work really hard everyday. our performance in the last five years has been improving, despite the cuts we have taken over that period. we

have prosecutors up and down the country who go to work every day and make really important decisions about people's lives, who do so professionally and well, and it is using insulting to them to dam the service that way. our lead story is from south africa. winnie madikizela mandela has died aged 81. for decades, she fought apartheid alongside her husband nelson mandela. some of the main stories from bbc world service. syrian state media says fighters from the rebel group which has been holding douma in eastern ghouta are starting to leave. the group itself has not indicated a willingness to go. seven people have died in protests involving tens of thousands of protesters from the dalit community across india. the people from the group formerly known as untouchable are protesting a supreme court order that they say weakens a law designed to protect lower caste communities.

it's easter monday, and at the white house that means it's time for the annual easter egg roll. president trump, first lady melania and the easter bunny hosted thousands of children and parents on the south lawn — the 140th time for the event. i've already been mentioning this new raft of tariffs in china and us imports. let's go to new york. it has been another horrible day on wall street. at one point today it looked like the s&p 500, the larger index, was going to have the worst second—quarter start since the great depression. it has recovered a little bit but it has still been an awful day. the reason for that is

refreshed fears of a trade war. it is not so much what china did yesterday. the imposition of those sanctions on 128 products. it is fears of what china may do next. it is companies like boeing and caterpillar, both of whom have had huge exposure to the chinese market, who really fear they could be individually targeted by beijing. that could eat into corporate profits in the next quarter. it is really sending investors very scared indeed. a tweet from the president saying only fools or worse are saying only fools or worse are saying that the money—losing post office makes money with amazon. this is the latest in a volley of criticisms towards amazon. what is the story? absolutely. it appears donald trump as a personal vendetta against amazon. maybe because he does not like the way the washington

post, owned by jeff does not like the way the washington post, owned byjeff bezos, he doesn't like how the washington post cove rs doesn't like how the washington post covers him. nonetheless, president trump seems to be going for amazon. he says they are putting retailers around the country out of business. he says their tax affairs are all paid. and the new line is that amazon abuses the us postal service, which it uses to send billions of parcels around the us. amazon would say it has revived us postal service by giving it a lot of business, and in any case it is looking for other ways by which to deliver products, including drones etc. the fact the president is going after a company specifically sent amazon shares spiralling down today. thank you. you'll be familiar with the idea that increased automation can reduce the number of jobs in particular industries. well, this research is interesting.

the organisation for economic co—operation and development says only 14% ofjobs in oecd countries can be replaced by robots — that's compared to the 47% estimated by an earlier study by oxford university. here's the reaction of professor birgitte andersen. there has been a lot of focus on science technologies, but actually the big skills are the soft skills, how to work the platforms, computer programmes, or interacting human and machine. it is not that humanity is becoming a concept. it is the soft skills that are important. there will be a lot of transformation of jobs and lifelong learning is of course important. let's learn about the new space mission launching tonight. in fact,

it should lift from cape canaveral soon. it will hopefully demonstrate how we may be able to clear up space junk. this is how things are looking at the moment. there are around half at the moment. there are around half a million pieces ofjunk in orbit, everything from rockets —— rocha pieces, tools dropped by astronauts. altogether we think it weighs about 7.5 thousand tonnes. it is causing serious damage. this is the international space station. if lack of paint caused that crack, which are to be repaired. the picture was taken by uk astronaut tim peake. this is a european satellite which stopped working in 2012. it is as big as a double—decker bus and it is still circling earth, which means it isa still circling earth, which means it is a threat to other satellites in its path. this could be one answer. it is the remove debris satellite. it is the remove debris satellite. it uses a net and a harpoon to grab spacejunk. it

it uses a net and a harpoon to grab space junk. it pulled it uses a net and a harpoon to grab spacejunk. it pulled it out it uses a net and a harpoon to grab space junk. it pulled it out of orbit and back into the earth's atmosphere. the daobry burns up as it is being tracked back to earth. —— the debris burns up. therefore it is no longer a problem in orbit. this was developed in surrey in the south of england. the satellite will ride to the international space station bourdais spacek ‘s. it will lift off from cape canaveral in the next few minutes. this is the leader of the project. we are the leaders of a consortium of about ten organisations throughout europe that have put together this mission. we are going together this mission. we are going to test some of the technologies. in our opinion this is the secret to move forward. if we managed to remove some of the debris, as long as the cost is not too exorbitant, we hope this will go forward and somebody will do it commercially. the idea is that we have to try to

ca ptu re the idea is that we have to try to capture some of this debris. the relative speed is relatively low. then you capture it. there is a variety of objects from large satellites that are no longer working, and these are pretty large. on the other side of the spectrum there are really small things like nuts and bolts, even flecks of paint. but because they fly so fast, if they hit a new satellite, they can produce significant damage. the idea is that we demonstrate some technologies that can be used to ca ptu re technologies that can be used to capture some of this debris. the net is one. the harpoon is the other one. another couple of technologies will help to carry out the operation. we have something like a camera which will assess what the debris is doing before you capture it. in other technology, we slow

down the satellite so that it can be burned into the atmosphere. so far there have been already some collisions. a handful of collisions. if you have two large pieces of debris colliding with each other, they produce thousands of smaller fragments, like a cloud of debris. so the problem is that you could have in effect the kessler syndrome. larger debris colliding with each other, producing more debris that will heed all the debris and you will heed all the debris and you will get this cascade effect. that has to be prevented. we are still at the stage where we can't prevent this kind of thing. but it is important that we start to remove some of the larger pieces of debris, to maintain the probability that a new satellite is going to be hit very low. we know that now satellite technology is really part of our

infrastructure. things like the weather forecast, satellite television. we use of satellite so much, and therefore we have to make sure it can be operated safely. the probability of a new satellite being hit by one of these pieces of debris has to be kept down. good luck. we are keeping an eye on cape canaveral. the bbc wants an equal number of men and women being used as contributors in its news programmes. it is called the 50—50 challenge. for the first and last time we are part of this story. it is rooted in a project called the 50-50 is rooted in a project called the 50—50 project that we started outside source. we were interested to see if we could increase the number of women contributors in our programme. we just —— number of women contributors in our programme. wejust —— devised a self—monitoring system. injanuary 2017, 39% of our contributors were

women. lowerfrankly 2017, 39% of our contributors were women. lower frankly than we thought. however, the act of measuring in january last year had thought. however, the act of measuring injanuary last year had a big impact. we became more aware, more motivated. by february the numbers had started to move. the percentage was up to 44%. by march, 47%. in april of last year, 51% were women. we have averaged 52% per month ever since. this isn't about quotas are a box ticking. the best guests always go on air. we just did a lot of work of finding new brilliant contributors. since we did that, more than 18 british programmes have joined our that, more than 18 british programmes havejoined our project. they have come from across the different genres. we have seen the number of women contributors go up, in some cases a lot. if you would like to learn more about what we have been up to and what the bbc is

doing, there is an article on the bbc website and on the bbc news apple. not everyone is impressed. sophiejarvis apple. not everyone is impressed. sophie jarvis says apple. not everyone is impressed. sophiejarvis says the idea is demeaning. 0f of course, we don't want to be demeaning to any guests. we hope it has improved our programme. you be thejudge of that. has improved our programme. you be the judge of that. and has improved our programme. you be thejudge of that. and be has improved our programme. you be the judge of that. and be the judge of the broader ideas behind the project. before we finish this half, let me look at the feed coming in. nothing on the feed from space x. when the take—off happens, we will try to show you some of the pictures. i'll see you in a couple of minutes. good evening. not only have we had snow in the uk to end the easter

weekend, we have also had snow across the usa. this weather system has been sprinting towards the great la kes. has been sprinting towards the great lakes. to the south of that, warm moist airfrom the lakes. to the south of that, warm moist air from the gulf of mexico. we will see severe storms to end monday and into tuesday. it turns out to be pretty wet. the potential is there in the midwest and further east for some severe thunderstorms. damaging winds and risk of tornadoes. not to mention yet more snow from any returning to work as well. further west, it snow from any returning to work as well. furtherwest, it is snow from any returning to work as well. further west, it is an u nsettled well. further west, it is an unsettled picture from vancouver and seattle. a few sharers in san francisco and los angeles. the showers across africa her moving to the gulf of guinea. further south, little sign of any rainford cape town. someone across the northern countries as well. heading into

parts of the levant. more rain towards the weekend. across india, the stories about the heat. quite a severe heatwave at the moment. temperatures well above average. with storms heading into kashmir, there could be dust storms as well as those heat conditions for its pakistan and india. across asia it is turning cooler in contrast. temperatures getting into the 20s in march. they will dip away in seoul and tokyo. drier than average in indochina. heavy showers through borneo and brunei. hopefully the showers will ease in indonesia. you can see the different temperature of tokyo and hong kong. —— the dip in temperature. across australia we have got this mass of rain. it is cyclone iris. it may intensify again, bringing flooding rain to

northern queensland. it looks pretty nasty. we could see 400 millilitres of rain. ahead of the start of the commonwealth games. showers on the gold coast. a lot of dry weather in the forecast as well. first sydney, perth and melbourne. for wellington and the rest of new zealand it will be unsettled. across europe we have got low—pressure dominating across the west, throwing weather systems across the uk. snow into tuesday in the north. showers are longer spells of rain pushing north. more snow for the alps and more snow across scandinavia. for the rest of the week ahead in the uk, it does look set to stay rather unsettled. perhaps a little milder by day. some chilly nights later this week. bye— bye. hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source, and these are the main stories here in the bbc newsroom winnie madikizela—mandela has died aged 81. for decades, she fought apartheid alongside her husband nelson mandela. people have gathered at her home to mourn a woman who was known

as "the mother of the nation". three months of strikes on french railways have started. emmanuel macron is taking on a labour reform challenge his predecessors have avoided. violence has broken out again in kashmir, 20 people have died in clashes between security forces and separatist militants. we get some analysis on the situation there. every day on outside source, we pull together the most important information on the biggest global stories. and we connect you to bbc journalists from around the world. we will do that over the next half an hour. winnie mandela has died at the age of 81 after a long illness. for many years she was one of leading voices of the anti—apartheid movement in south africa. but while her former husband nelson mandela united south africa — the same can't be said for winnie.

andrew harding reports. he was the icon, but she was larger—than—life. heroic, flawed, defiant, winnie, the mother of the nation. her world was transformed at the age of 23 when she met and soon married nelson mandela. he was a lawyer, already active in the underground struggle against racial apartheid, and soon to be sentenced to life imprisonment. my husband has been fighting for the liberation of the african people. for the working harmoniously of all of the racial groups in this country. in the lonely decades that followed, winnie and her young family were ruthlessly harassed by the white minority government. on the streets of south africa, the fight against apartheid intensified and winnie became a galvanising symbol of resistance. but the brutality of the times rubbed off on her. we bring up the white man's children.

we could have killed them any day we wanted to. with our necklaces we shall liberate this country. she endorsed necklacing, putting a burning tyre around those accused of betraying the cause. she and her security guards were directly implicated in the abduction and murder of a 14—year—old boy. in 1990 winnie was there to greet her husband as he walked to freedom and guided south africa on its miraculous path to democracy. but the years of separation had taken a toll on their marriage and after a period apart the couple divorced. in her later years she would be convicted of fraud, but still bounce back prominent within the governing anc, hailed as a champion of the poor. our grandmother played an important role for the people in this room and for the global society.

it's a tragic loss to us all. so i send condolences to everyone. to all that loved and supported winnie mandela, and the family. thank you. winnie mandela was a deeply divisive figure here, so unlike her former husband. in that sense she embodied south africa's struggle and contradictions, its greatness, and its bitterness. now — a rare apology by a top north korean official. south korean officials were been prevented from entering a concert in pyongyang where some big k—pop groups were performing. the north korean in charge of affairs with south korea, issued this apology saying that "it was wrong to hinder the free media coverage and filming." don't hear north korea apologising for that very often.

here's laura bicker in seoul. these k—pop stars, called red velvet, are known for their raunchy routines. many wondered how this south korean style would go down in the north korean capital. but leader kim jong—un himself came to watch, welcoming the applause from the invited pyongyang elite as he took his seat. later, as the north korean leader posed for a photo with the group, he described the concert as "a gift". translation: the audience gave us a great response. they clapped a lot and they sang along at the end of the concert. they gave us a big hand even after we left the stage, so i was really touched. but usually being caught with any kind of foreign pop music in north korea is a crime. and kimjong—un has been even

tougher than his father. defectors have reported harsh jail sentences. the regime is very guarded about outside influences on its people. so, the more interaction and the more exposure that north korean people get to south koreans, who represent a much freer, richer, you know, more advanced and cosmopolitan culture than what exists inside north korea, the better. so, one concert is better than nothing. you know, ten concerts would be better than that. and the more the better, basically. this is a pressure point that we should be needling more when we're dealing with north korea. together, the south korean stars sang about a dream of unifying the two koreas divided by war. the hope of the government in seoul is that this kind of exchange will lead to lasting peace on the peninsular. and those taking part hope for more in the future. translation: i think the role

of an artist could be more important than that of a politician, who can be very formal. if unification does happen, what both countries can relate and share is culture. i think about how i can be a little help to that. the audience may be clapping along to the same beat of their neighbours for now, but the two countries have been at this point before. all agree it's a start. but affecting real change on the peninsular will require more than the occasional overture. laura bicker, bbc news, seoul. a curfew has been imposed in indian—administered kashmir. that's because 20 people have died in clashes between security forces and separatist militants. the violence broke out on sunday.

remember all of kashmir is claimed by both india and pakistan. they've fought two wars over this since it was divided in 1947. and it remains separated by this line of control and is still one of the most militarised places in the world. when gunfights first broke out at the weekend, thousands packed the streets and chanted "freedom". this is the funeral of a young kashmiri who died in the unrest. mourners carry his body in the crowd in srinigar. many of them are calling for an end to indian rule. i've been speaking to anbarasan ethirajan, bbc‘s south asia regional editor. for the last few months we have seen a big change in terms of militant activity on the ground. india has always accused neighbouring pakistan of encouraging militant activity and allowing them to cross into kashmir region to fight against indian security forces. the younger generation of kashmiris,

who live in india, now they are more sophisticated, more organised, particularly on social media, which is now helping them to organise protests more quickly, and spreading their messages. that is a big concern for the indian authorities. even though the government says more militants have been killed in the last 18 months, many of them were from the region, and villagers are coming out in support of their kith and kin. it's not the foreign militants who come from pakistan or afghanistan. these are kashmiris, that is why you see thousands of people on the streets. is it possible to gauge public opinion within indian administered kashmir? it is difficult. if the government allows you, yes, you can go and do it. what people say that is there are three kinds of people, one, they want a merger with pakistan, another group would say independent kashmir, including the one on the other side, and the third group are people that might say we would prefer to live

in india with more autonomy. but it is very difficult to get the mood of the people because the government doesn't allow sometimes, and also this curfew, and the violence. but what is concerning the authorities is people are losing the fear of security forces and the army. when the operations are taking place to take on the militants, you see thousands of people coming and distracting them. so, they are losing the fear. that is what is concerning. when they lose that fear, it means more people will come onto the streets. don't forget you can get much more detail on our top stories on our website where you can read more about the south african anti—apartheid campaigner winnie madikizela—mandela, who has died aged 81. there was never any doubt about the outcome — abdul fattah al—sisi has won re—election as president of egypt — he won 97% of the vote. president trump has called to congratulate him. the uk's foreign secretary boris johnson tweeted. .. he said he wasn't forward to working

with president sisi, and egypt has an opportunity to build a democratic society. i am an opportunity to build a democratic society. iam not an opportunity to build a democratic society. i am not sure many people would describe that election as being particularly democratic. let me show you the election and ours are being made. the government wa nted are being made. the government wanted a big turnout to show the president had a lot of support. they held at over three days and said there would be a fine of $25 for people that did not turnout. outside of egypt comey got to hear about up to the international media. inside egypt, the situation was more complicated. this newspaper al—masry al—youm was fined £8,000 and ordered to print an apology for reporting about it. 7% of voters chose to spoil their ballots — twice as many as voted for this man moussa mostafa moussa, the only candidate eventually willing to stand against sisi — even though he'd been a supporter.

perhaps it was not a surprise he did not win. some reports say1 million people chose to vote for this man instead — liverpool football club's egyptian forward, mohammed salah who wasn't even on the ballot paper. those who don't support sisi took out their frustration online — this hashtag "#liars" in arabic — was trending worldwide — more than 11,000 people using it each hour. one politician, a former minister tweeted. .. sally nabil is in cairo. before the voting process started, everybody knew that president sisi is going for an easy second term. but what is worth looking at, actually, is the turnout. what we have so far is that the turnout is still less than that of the last election held in 2014, according to

preliminary results. it is around 40%, while in 2014 it was nearly 50%. it is also about the age category of voters. from what we have seen, it is mainly older people that bothered to go to the polling stations, really. young voters, they decided to stay away, or at least the majority of young voters decided to stay away because they believe that the votes do not count, this is what they told me. one of them told me even before i cast my vote, i know president sisi is going to win, so my vote is not going to make any difference. so far, we have had the opposition figures still insisting the whole election process is a sham process. they say that under the current regime, which is going to continue for the next four years, we do not have a chance to operate, really, because the president does not seem to be interested in politics or in party life at all. so, they are pretty concerned that the restrictions that they witnessed over the past four years are going to continue.

they say that many of the party members are being jailed for a word they say on social media and that they have no chance at all to express themselves peacefully in the street. for more than 15 years, brazil has been ruled by the left. now with elections later in the year, the political balance is swinging to the right. it's a shift from when former president lula da silva rose to power promising change, but now the country's most loved politician has been charged with corruption and is facing 12 years in prison. his successor, dilma rousseff, was impeached. there have been damaging times for the left. our south america correspondent katy watson has more. a symbol for many of where brazil has gone wrong. soldiers on the streets of rio, trying to keep the city safe from rising violence. for presidential hopeful

jair bolsonaro, public security is top of the agenda. he warns in this video that brazil risks becoming the new venezuela. it's just one of hundreds of videos on the right—wing politician's facebook page which has more than 5 million followers. he has been accused of being homophobic, he's anti—abortion and believes brazilians should be armed. nicknamed brazil's trump, his fans love him. he is the only one that is literally worried about the public security. i know it sounds really awkward, but really, if any woman could read the projects of bolsonaro, she would love like me. right—wing groups are finding big audiences. the free brazil movement, or mbl in portuguese, started through protests,

calling for dilma rousseff to be impeached. their critics accused them of being too conservative, but the self—styled libertarian pressure group says their supporters want change. people are consuming this culture produced by the establishment. they don't identify any more with what is being handed to him. now, because of the internet, they can find their own voice and they can find their own values back again. that's what's happening and that is why we have trump, that is why we have brexit, that is why we have mbl, that is why we have this common people's voice being heard. since it started in 2014, the free brazil movement has grown massively. but it doesn'tjust want to be a protest movement. from the conversations that are going on here, it is clear that it was to change the direction of politics in this country, too. fernando holiday is an unusual poster boy for the right. a member of the free brazil movement, he was the youngest ever person to be voted a city councillor in sao paulo. he comes from a poor family and is gay. he thinks young brazilians had

until recently become disengaged with politics. translation: the right became synonymous with more conservative politics, irrelevant for minorities. but i think we bring a wider vision of what the right is. we are in favour of gay marriage, but i'm against legalisation of drugs and abortion. not everything fits into a standard box and is determined by rigid rules. experts say brazil's corruption scandals have been fertile ground for this kind of politics. politicians, judiciary, police officers and the army, we have a total distrust of every kind of authority in brazil. this is the movement that propagates and shows that everything is wrong. it's very useful for this type of scenario. politics here is deeply polarised and october's presidential elections are the most uncertain in decades. we have heard from brazil, south

africa, the us, indian administered kashmir. let's talk about another deterioration of the relationship between russia and the west. here's the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov responding to a question from the bbc‘s steve rosenberg. the phrase that you hear more and more to describe current relations between russia and the west is the new cold war. how dangerous do you believe the growing tension between russia and the west is, and how far is moscow prepared to go in the diplomatic war with britain? lie there is a lot of talk about how the situation is worse than during the old cold war, because then there we re old cold war, because then there were rules and accepted behaviour that follows. now, i think our western partners, chiefly great

britain and the usa, have disregarded all of the accepted behaviour and resort to open lies and this deliberate disinformation. by and this deliberate disinformation. by expelling diplomats on fabricated pretences, it reduces the possibility of dialogue. in diplomacy, we have the principle of requisite city. it is like we said when we were children, whoever started it should finish. we do not wa nt to started it should finish. we do not want to do anything resembling child's games, but this is exactly what our partners are doing. this poisoning row has been rumbling on for nearly a month now. the uk says it is adamant russia was behind the attack. today in a series of tweets the russian embassy said this... here's steve rosenberg again. russia continues to insist it had nothing at all to do with the poisoning of sergei skripal and his

daughter, and continues to point the finger at the west. in this geopolitical playground, britain says russia started it, russia says britain started. neither side seems prepared to finish it and ease the tension. donald trump has made it clear that he's opposed to legalising the status of hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants who were brought to the united states as children. the so—called dreamers. fox & friends featured this debate, take a look. we need to get serious about this, we look at these people and have compassion, but it doesn't mean laws don't matter. that is where the left gets it wrong every time, they talk about humanitarianism, they talk about humanitarianism, they talk about being good people and gracious to these people, but they have to remember that laws matter and americans conversed in our own country. again, let me say, build that wall. the caravan they're talking about is a group of around 1000 people —

mostly honduran migrants — travelling through mexico. they're thought to be in a big group to try to protect themselves from criminal gangs. some say they're just on a pilgrimage and say they wont enter the us. well, just six minutes after fox & friends broadcast that story the us president took to twitter. nafta is the north american free trade agreement. very few punches being pulled by the

president. he's been turning to the subject throughout the day. as i was mentioning, lots of children and their parents were at the annual white house easter egg roll. he took a break from a white house easter egg roll. he took a breakfrom a growing to white house easter egg roll. he took a break from a growing to counter this. they had a great opportunity, democrats really let them down and people are taking advantage, and that's a shame. iam not i am not sure what the boy next to him was making that. things remain tense with references to the daca deal. also tense in terms of the negotiations around nafta. and mexico, which is part of nafta — goes to the polls injuly to elect a new president. this is one of the frontrunners. translation: we will not rule out the possibility of convincing donald

trump on his ill founded foreign policy, particularly his derogatory attitude towards mexicans. we will be very respectful of the united states, but we will also demand respect for mexicans. mexico and its people will not be the pinata of any foreign government. here's the former mexican ambassador to the us speaking to the bbc. this has been a constant, the three issues, nafta has been bad, the issues, nafta has been bad, the issue of border security and conflating immigrants with criminality, these have been narratives of his throughout the campaign in his first year. nothing really new there. what is troubling is that this happens exactly a week after the secretary of homeland security was in mexico city, signing a raft of memorandums with the mexican counterparts, enhancing how mexico and the united states co nfe re nce mexico and the united states conference international criminal organisations, enhancing the way we do broader control. you have two

bureaucracies tried to make sure that the wheels don't fall off, and then trump is dynamiting it. now, i told you i'd show you the liftoff of the recycled falcon 9 rocket and unmanned dragon cargo ship from a nasa launchpad at cape canaveral, florida. it is built by a british team, or led by a team in the southern england. it is looking to deal with the spacejunk england. it is looking to deal with the space junk orbiting around the world, tried to pull some of it back into the orbit of the earth, and as it comes through the atmosphere it disintegrates, so it strives to clear up what is over 7000 tonnes of different types of space junk. the take—off has different types of space junk. the ta ke—off has happened different types of space junk. the take—off has happened from a nasa launch pad at cape canaveral. these are the pictures. liftoff of the falcon 9 rocket and the dragon spacecraft, packed with supplies for

the space station. it all went to plan. we will keep an eye on how that goes in terms of dealing with particular types of spacejunk. it dealing with particular types of space junk. it will not deal with the problem but it could demonstrate a way of dealing with the problem in future. spacejunk a way of dealing with the problem in future. space junk is where we finish this edition of outside source. thank you for watching. we will be back at the same time tomorrow with the biggest global stories. i will see you then. hello. a snowy end to easter for some of us, mostly wet snow, not pleasant. most of us had reigned in the past few days. as far as this week is concerned with the hot april showers and things are going to turn

a little bit milder. here is the latest satellite image. you can see low— pressure latest satellite image. you can see low—pressure spinning around across the neighbourhood. this is the low pressure that brought the snow across northern areas and it is still going to be making its presence felt across the course of tuesday. there is another one here behind me, and you can see that will behind me, and you can see that will be spinning in towards the uk. this is the weather map, the pressure chart, through monday night and into tuesday, still cold air across scotland. the white indicates the snow. early in the morning across the highlands there will be snow around. wind is still blowing up in the north—east, a holder direction. notice that the wind is blowing out of the south—west, milder weather, milder air, brighter of the south—west, milder weather, milderair, brighterweather of the south—west, milder weather, milder air, brighter weather up to 15 degrees. some showers peppered around the north. in glasgow and edinburgh, only5 around the north. in glasgow and edinburgh, only 5 degrees. the weather continues into tuesday the north a messy picture of rain. clearer weather, but not completely dry. that next low—pressure moves

in. here is one of scandinavia. this is another one washing in of the atlantic. this one is going to bring the classic april showers. bright sunshine, heavy showers, then back to bright sunshine. you can see the showers moving across the country. notice it is still cold across scotland, 5 degrees in aberdeen, 13 degrees in london, somewhere in between across northern england and belfast. the disquiet is down on thursday. low—pressure moves out into scandinavia. this is a window of better weather across the uk. lighter wind. a little bit cooler, and then ten or 12 degrees at best. that is because it will have been a clear and cold, frosty start to thursday. friday, something interesting happens. the weather front upsets the weather across western areas of the uk, a jet strea m western areas of the uk, a jet stream here. the jet western areas of the uk, a jet stream here. thejet stream, at the same time, pulling up milder air

from the south, which will be approaching south—eastern and eastern areas of the uk. a true southerly developing across some southern and eastern areas of the british isles, even all the way up to aberdeen. this is where the milderair to aberdeen. this is where the milder air will go. temperatures up to 1506 team degrees. this is where the jet stream goes and goes north—west. the details on saturday and sunday are a bit more sketchy at this stage. the thinking is that we are primarily dragging in the air from the south. there will be some showers around. a little bright weather. look at that, 80 degrees in london, on how much sunshine we get. -- 18 london, on how much sunshine we get. —— 18 degrees. this pattern continues through the rest of the weekend, into next week. much of europe is engulfed by this milder air. some of it will leak in towards south—eastern areas of the uk. the thinking is that this is where the mildest of the weather is going to

be. we summarise early next week, the mildest weather is in the south. not necessarily sunny. the coolest weather is in the north and there will be a mixture of sunshine and showers. typical april weather. winnie mandela — the anti—apartheid campaigner and former wife of nelson mandela — has died at the age of 81. we bring up the white man's children. a controversialfigure, she was implicated in kidnapping, murder and fraud but made several successful political comebacks. in the midst of repression, she was a voice of defiance and resistance. in the face of exploitation, she was a champion of justice and equality. we'll be accessing her legacy and her impact on south africa. also on the programme: donald trump's trade war with china heats up, as beijing slaps tariffs onto american pork, wine and fruit. the director of public prosecutions, alison saunders,
