thing up your watching beyond 100 days... donald trump caught on tape discussing payments which would quiet a playboy model who says they had an affair. the conversation happened weeks before the 2016 election. the person who taped it, mr trump's own lawyer. karen mcdougal got a lot of money not to talk about the affair publicly — the white house had said mr trump knew nothing about it. the european commission arrives in washington looking to de—escalate the trade row. moments ago, the president suggested he is not in the mood for compromise. over the years, the united states has been losing hundreds of billions of dollars to the european union and we just want it to be a level playing field for farmers, for our manufacturers, for everybody. also on the programme... between a0 and 100 people are still thought to be missing in greece, where firefighters have been battling new fires today. and perhaps there is life out there after all. the discovery of a lake beneath the southern polar ice cap of mars raises all manner

of exciting possibilities. get in touch with us using the hashtag... 'beyond—one—hundred—days' hello and welcome — i'm katty kay in washington and christian fraser is in london. shortly before the us election donald trump discussed buying the rights to a playboy model's story about an alleged affairwith him. we know this because mr trump's lawyer, michael cohen, recorded the conversation. this was a pretty underhand thing for a lawyer to do — but then so is discussing pay offs to a playboy model. the tape is two minutes long. but in april, fbi agents seized almost four million files and recordings from mr cohen's office. the incendiary nature of this one recorded snippet, begs the question what else is in that huge cache? i need to open up a company for the transfer of all of that info regarding our friend david,

so i'm going to do that right away. i've spoken to alan about how to set the thing up. with funding. it is all the stuff because you never know what that company... correct. so i am allover what that company... correct. so i am all over that and i spoke to alan about it. when it comes time for the financing... what financing? we will have to pay. pay cash. no, no, no. mr trump has responded on twitter to the release of the tape. "what kind of a lawyer would tape a client? so sad!" we're joined now by the political columnist for the washington post.

why is this story important? for one thing it contradicts president trump's own denials that he had any idea about this. his own denials at the time that he knew about this. what i think is more intriguing now is that it does raise the question of what is out there? —— what else is out there. president trump says what type of lawyer would take his owi'i what type of lawyer would take his own client? i think the answer to thatis own client? i think the answer to that is the type of lawyer that donald trump would hire to be his long—term fix. he has long boasted that the people who vote for him are rip his words killers. and right now, michael cohen is fighting to stay out of prison. do american voters, do you think, when they hear of this tape recording care about the tape recording or michael coen 01’ the tape recording or michael coen or karen mcdougal or indeed any of this? i think that for people who

support donald trump, i think they have already sort of factored into their assessment of him that he is not exactly the best husband that we have ever seen! so i doubt that this is going to do anything to kind of change voter's mind about what kind of character donald trump has. but it will raise more questions about what kind of legaljeopardy he might bea what kind of legaljeopardy he might be a through all of this. and i think that it is also going to put pressure on him to figure out how he's going to deal michael coen. what is quite extraordinary sitting on the other side of the atlantic is that the focus is beyond where they pay cash or in a cheque. rather than the fact that his wife had just come out of child birth, he was having this is fair. that contemporaneously

he knew that michael cohen was go to pay off this playboy model and the fa ct pay off this playboy model and the fact that he then went on to lie about it. does it really matter if it was cash or cheque? eye well, there is the potential that there was a possibility of using cash and ido was a possibility of using cash and i do not know that there would be because that triggers banking regulations with a 6—figure amount. but there could be possible questions of not having a record and therefore potentially tripping while in finance laws. but i do agree with you that everything else we're talking about here, that does seem like an minor points. but it does show that donald trump himself was not just informed of show that donald trump himself was notjust informed of this but he was actually deeply engaged in a decision of how to do it. it is pretty stunning to hear an attorney discussing things with his client. why do you think he recorded it and why did he release it now? for one

thing, as donald trump well knew, michael cohen made a habit of recording a lot of things and often he would play those recordings for donald trump sort of to entertain him. so it was both a habit of his but it also could have been because he had a sense that at some point he may have to protect himself. thanks very much. christine, that point about whether voters care or what they have factored into the story when it comes to donald trump i think is worth expanding on. of course, we should i doubt that donald trump has denied that this affair happened. but there is a precedent here. of american voters giving their president is a certain amount of latitude because when bill clinton's affair with monica lewinsky was revealed his approval

ratings did not decline. he left office with one of the highest approval ratings of any president. they felt should secure in their jobs, that was the kind of thing they were worried about. it did not affect a voter's opinions of him. but there is also president and some angst of the present trying to change the record and blame in the fa ke change the record and blame in the fake news media. he said yesterday what you are seeing what you're reading is not what is happening. but the problem is in this instance is what we are hearing is the president's own voice and his reaction to this idea that they have to payoff karen mcdougal on it is him and chorley that causes him a problem with some of those wavering voters who are not necessarily his republican base. we may find out in

november in the mid—term elections. the european commission president is at the white house trying to fend off a global trade war. jean—claudejuncker insists the two groups are allies not enemies. but the president says the eu has treated america unfairly. yesterday mr trump tweeted "tarrifs are great". today it was this. followed by... the president's chief economic advisor larry kudlow said he expected the europeans to arrive with a "substa ntial offer". it's unlikely he will be satisfied. there's no sign the eu is about to drop either the regulations or the tarrifs that annoy donald trump. we want to have a fair trade deal and we are looking to have a fair trade deal and hopefully we can work something out. 0ver trade deal and hopefully we can work something out. over the years, the united states has been losing

hundreds of billions of dollars with the european union and we just want it to be a level playing field for ourfarmers, it to be a level playing field for our farmers, for it to be a level playing field for ourfarmers, for our it to be a level playing field for our farmers, for our manufacturers, for everybody. and we also want a big beneficiary frankly to be the european union, so we think it can be good for everybody and that is what we're here discuss. 0ur north america editor jon sopel is here. here is the white house having to pay out $4 billion to farmers who've been hit by retaliatory tariffs by the chinese and the europeans, houses go to help the president politically? well you are saying that people may be didn't care that much about what the president might be getting up to in his personal life. they certainly care about tariffs. if you are a farmer in the midwest, part of the area of the country that voted for trump and your profits are going down the tube because of the tariffs that the president has imposed on the retaliation that has taken place by

the europeans on the chinese and by the europeans on the chinese and by the mexicans, you really do care about that sort of stuff because thatis about that sort of stuff because that is your livelihood. that is what is going on in your wallet and soi what is going on in your wallet and so i think this is a real issue. donald trump, you will remember a few months ago, he said oh trade was so easy to win. well i think it is turning out that they are a lot more conjugated. he's telling people to be patient, it will take time. i think he now realises he is in for a fight and it will be interesting to see how loyal the base stays while this fight is going on. what about the economics, what about situation that currently in have potentially on the global economy. well, it depends how hard the europeans and chinese are going to dig in and whether it is going to escalate still further. because of course if tariffs are imposed on goods coming into the us, but that's another way, thatis into the us, but that's another way, that is inflation. that means that if you are going to the shops in the usa, the goods that you are buying

are going to cost a lot more money and of course if that happens then people are going to feel quite a bit poorer. that is the straightforward economics involved in all of this. and of course it will hit global growth. effusively have an escalation of a trade war with tariffs being put up then that is bad for global trade and that is why there are so many republicans, free—market there are so many republicans, free— market republicans in washington, dc you think donald trump is going down completely the wrong track. and there are those in the white house to feel exactly the same. the tariffs policy, the trade war policy, is very much donald trump and one or two others and not shared by the rest of this administration. but jean-claude juncker and the rest of his team have been telling us this week that they are going to the escalate the situation and they are the standard bearers for free trade. if that is true, why do they have all that regulation and tariffs on american goods? because they have different safety standards over what people will eat and what people will buy.

so for example on drugs they have got different standards that the europeans have always had. in the us, the americans chlorinated their chickens, there are hormones in beef, there are genetically modified crops and the european union have takena crops and the european union have taken a view that they do not want that. so that leads to differences in the trading that you are able to do. but i thought it was interesting, jean—claude juncker, when he sat with donald trump said we are close partners, allies, not enemies. i just wonder whether he had in mind what donald trump had said when he was on his european tour when he said the european union our foes? interesting, isn't it? sometimes donald trump says something when is sitting next to some daddy and his tone can be different when he's not sitting next to them. greek authorities are looking for dozens of people still missing after deadly wildfires near athens. at least 80 people have died so far. high winds spread the fire, trapping people in their homes and vehicles

and forcing others to flee by sea to escape the flames. bbc‘s mark lowen has more from mati. they had hope, until now. but the family of 88—year—old angeliki have just heard the worst. that she was the 80th person killed by the wildfires. her charred remains were discovered in her home. so unrecognisable was she, only her dna identified her. for her son, nikos, a mix of shock and rage. fortunately, i didn't find her by myself because i couldn't face the view. the body is totally burned. when the pain will calm down, i will prosecute to all levels everybody that is responsible for this catastrophe. i will not stop, until i will die. it's still not known how the spark was lit, but the gale force winds

meant the flames galloped down the mountains. dozens are still missing and almost 200 were injured. like susan stephos from britain, burnt by the fire as she ran from her home. it is hard to find words for such a tragedy. when i was in the house and the fire was going over, i thought, "i'm not going to make it. "this is the end". but... prayers were answered. and i managed. the streets of mati are like a burnt—out ghost town. the scorched shells are all that remain of family homes, and some still bear the trace of the inferno. for the engineers, the task of assessing what can still stand and what must be torn down. dora says it's as if an earthquake struck. something very, very bad has happened here. and it's just the feeling of walking

along in a place that i knew was full of green and trees and all these things. it's very difficult, and i have to cope with people that have psychological problems right now. it's quite difficult for everyone. these are the people going in the water. volunteer lifeguards scour the coast for any sign of life or death. hundreds of people were rescued as they ran into the sea to escape the flames. the hope of finding any more survivors has virtually gone, so the aim now is to look for belongings and bodies. for some, the sea marked their salvation from the flames. for others, it was the end. the memories of that night lie buried here and in the remains of a part of greece scarred forever. the investigation already under way

into this and maybe it is going to focus on why the firefighters were late, reportedly, and why there was not for many hours in fact the helicopters of firefighters deployed. 0ne helicopters of firefighters deployed. one theory i've been reading about today is in their effo rts reading about today is in their efforts to cut the debt crisis they cut too deep. in one report i read it said that last spring the fire service lost 34 million euros that was earmarked for staff and vehicles and asa was earmarked for staff and vehicles and as a result of that the number of firefighting staff was reduced and particularly around athens. so there will be answers demanded of that and critics of course pointing to the fact that if climate change is upon us and we are going to get these repeated extreme weather patterns, is it wise to be cutting into the civil protection budget? there is also the speed at which those flames spread, with some people who survived it describing as like the flame—thrower. from one minute to the next they were engulfed in flames. you wonder how

firefighters could have responded earlier and those cuts, i'm sure there are political questions could be asked about that. as people are asking about austerity budgets generally in europe. british and irish ministers have met in london for the first time in 11 years, for their inter—governmental conference. the last meeting was just before the dup and sinn fein confirmed their willingness to share power at stormont. however, it's now been 18 months since that devolved government in belfast collapsed, and ministers from london and dublin will attempt to restore power sharing. more than 30 people have been killed by a bomb in the city of quetta in pakistan during its general elections. violence has erupted across the country as millions head to the polls. voters are deciding between the parties of the former cricket star imran khan and the disgraced former prime minister nawaz sharif. ireland should refuse to extradite a polish national if he won't get a fair trail in poland, ruled the european unions top court. the landmark case involves arthur celmer, a polish national who has lived in ireland for ten years, who is wanted for a series of drug trafficking offences.

ireland's high court blocked the extradition over concerns the individual wouldn't have access to a free trial. the beatles legend sir paul mccartney has re—enacted the famous abbey road album cover. the musician re—created the walk in london ahead of the album's 49th anniversary. sir paul posted a video on to his instagram account showing fans cheering as he walked. i could watch that on a loop all day. i love that story. the french president, emmanuel macron, has broken his silence over the growing scandal surrounding his bodyguard's assault on may day demonstrators. the president lashed out at press coverage of the issue, saying the media were seeking to become a judicial authority and were not interested in the truth. two things about that, catty. 0ne

was his attack on the media, which was his attack on the media, which was disappointingly trump —esque. fake news. the fact that you didn't sack the bodyguard was only last week and two days after le monde newspaper had published it that he decided it was to be sacked. the second thing that strikes me is that of course he's been trying to create this image that the presidency is beyond reproach. he can hardly argue that they are spotless when the palace refused to issue sanctions against the man and then of course protected him from judicial oversight. quite damaging for the president. the british governments quandary over what to do with the two british jihadists known as the beatles has sparked quite a debate this week. the decision to send them to the united states to face justice was widely criticised. a report out today says the solution, is to update the uk's

ancient treason laws, which date to the 14th century, so they in future cover threats to british society as a whole. the reports authors, who include tom tugendhat, the conservative chairman of the foreign affairs committee argue that citizens who betray their country, through acts of terrorism, should be dealt with as traitors. the penalty would carry a life sentence. they point to the 193 people who were jailed between 2006 and 2017 for terrorism offences. more than 80 of them are due for release this year. we spoke to tom tugendhat a little earlier. before we get to the merits or otherwise of what you are proposing, why does the current treason law not work? the current treason law is geared around the king. it was written in 1351 to protect the monarchy of edward the second and his heirs to make sure that they held the kingdom. in those days of

course the kingdom of england. since then, the world has changed, england has changed and indeed we are now the united kingdom. the last person to be tried for treason in the uk was lord haw haw who was hanged. and there are plenty who say that the death penalty should be applicable in this case, so why is it of the table? we did away with the death penalty a long time ago, as you know. it has now been over 50 years since anybody was executed in the united kingdom. it was finally done away with in 1998 but the reality is that this is not an attempt to reduce it and what we are really talking about is updating it. betrayal is not about threatening big kings's majesty or his royal succession, it is about dividing the country, undermining us and creating doubt among the populations of the net united kingdom. of history the death penalty not of the table in the united states. is that why you are

opposed to extradition in this case? anchored the government have done some sort of arrangement with the us to say ok we will extradite them but you have to take, washington has to take, the death penalty of the table equipment to do that. was that possible? there is a standard agreement between the us and uk governments that evidence used by the uk government will not be used for capital offence and this particular case does not change anything in that particular regard. it is not so much about this particular incident although i do think it is wrong that british people should be exporting justice toa people should be exporting justice to a foreign jurisdiction. people should be exporting justice to a foreignjurisdiction. i think we should be able to dry our own criminals. we have a long history of doing so and i see no reason why we should stop doing so now. —— to trying our own criminals. david bannerman road today... is that appropriate? no, it is not.

political debate is a strength of democracy, not an undermine of it. the truth about democracies is that we constantly have debate about agreements. we do not have one man, one vote will stop we have regular votes on different issues. the only thing we believe is the will of the people as a single entity are fascists. everybody else believe that people have multiple wills and it is reflected by multiple voices in our democratic system, at local, federal and national level. very grateful for your time, federal and national level. very gratefulfor your time, thank federal and national level. very grateful for your time, thank you. last week, christian told you the embarassing story of his home decoration history and the house that got painted the wrong colour. well, we have sent the programme's crack investigative team to uncover the truth about how instructions to paint a house a tasteful shade of cream ended up with neon yellow. i am so pleased that 18 years

on this has turned up. can ijust direct our dear viewers, for one moment, to the instructions, that are there in the original newspaper story, written on a post—it note and stuck to a paint chart. how in the world could you construe from those instructions, that what the owner actually wanted, was his house painting the colour of the post—it note, on which those instructions were written? christian, i have some sympathy with you. now, i am totally in line with the builder. if i pointed out row at a box like this, which colour do we want? this one here or this one here? della mac not if it is stuck to paint chart! your structures were rubbish, of course he painted it the colour of the post it. i believed you. now, i realise never asking you to do any decorating in my house

ever. and i do say that that painter went the diy store twice to get the shade of post—it note yellow utterly perfect. and when i came home... yet, because you had asked did just that! della mac and bike came back to find the neighbours around the gate armed with a pitch fork because it was glowing in the night sky. you look very cute though, you look so young! yes. 18 years ago, it takes me back. with the yellow house. young! yes. 18 years ago, it takes me back. with the yellow housem is gone downhill ever since! this is beyond 100 days from the bbc. coming up for viewers on the bbc news channel and bbc world news... taken a stand, the swedish woman who refused to sit down on a plane to stop an afghan asylum seeker being deported. that's still to come. hello there,

there are some changes on the horizon and into the weekend something cooler, fresher. but before we reach that point, the next few days are set to turn even hotter for the rest of it with the increasing chance of thunderstorms. we are looking at the hottest period of the year so far with temperatures hitting 35 or 36 celsius in places across the south—east. cast your eyes out to the atlantic, this mass of cloud, the active weather front that will bring that change late in the week. before we reach that point tonight it is going to be another warm and muggy one with largely clear skies and light winds. temperatures across the south really will be quite warm and muggy, those of 19 or 20 degrees possible in the london area. for thursday, a similar data wednesday, plenty of sunshine around. the afternoon, the chants of around. the afternoon, the chants of a few showers developing across the

east of england and the breeze picks up east of england and the breeze picks up across east of england and the breeze picks up across northern ireland, western scotland, as that weather fronts gets ever closer. a very warm day across the board with low to mid 30s celsius across parts of england and wales. thursday evening, a chance of showers and thunderstorms increases across eastern areas and that weather front makes inroads into northern ireland on western scotland. the low pressure system moves eastwards during friday, this is where we will see significant change. cloud, outbreaks of rain across western areas and then central and eastern england, thunderstorms that will become more widespread. hit and miss storms but if you catch one day could be strong. gusty winds, flash flooding problems where they occur. 0ne muggy and across east anglia head of those showers in the sunshine it could be

36 degrees. friday evening, overnight that line of showers works northwards and eastwards pushing into the north sea. scattered showers and breezy conditions towards the south—west. a very different feeling to the weekend, cool and fresher, 10 degrees lower in places. more in the way of showers on sunday and it will be breezy too. this is beyond 100 days, with me, katty kay in washington, christian fraser is in london. our top stories. donald trump and the eu's jean claude juncker meet at the white house as tensions over trade tariffs continue. 0ver over the year as the united states has been losing hundreds of billions of dollars with the european union and we just want to be a level playing field for manufacturing and

farming and ever ready. a woman who's been trying to end her marriage says she's "devastated" after the uk's supreme court refuses her permission to divorce her husband. the court said the case was "very troubling." coming up in the next half hour. perhaps there is life out there after all. the discovery of a lake beneath the southern polar ice cap of mars, raises all manner of exciting possibilities. iam not i am not going to sit down until this person is off the plane. and how a student in sweden tried to prevent the deporation of an afghan asylum seeker, and streamed her protest live on facebook whilst she was doing it. let us know your thoughts by using the hashtag. the us secretary of state has been a busy man lately. russia, north korea and iran are just some of the top items on his agenda. and after president trump's sit down with vladimir putin — us lawmakers certainly have a lot of questions. well, in just half an hour they'll get their chance to ask them

when secretary pompeo appears before the senate foreign relations committee. our state department correspondent barbara plett—usher is on capitol hill where things are about to kick off. we are already getting lines from the secretary. 0ne he is going to talk about is crimea and reiterating the official american position that the official american position that the us does not recognise the russian annexation of crimea. just before his meeting, the state department has released that declaration which spells out, the firms, us policy that it will not recognise the russian rhianna excision of crimea and that shows that he is aware of the concerns because on both sides of the aisle after president trump's meeting with vladimir putin last week, the

impression was he had said publicly against us interests but then they wondered, what did he do in private? was he privately changing foreign policy on things like ukraine and then help that the russians had issued statements that the verbal agreements and proposals in the white house is not really said anything and has only spoken about it in general terms, so i think this declaration is a sign of how he will approach the meeting and argue quite forcefully that the administration is holding the line on tough russia policy. the last time mike pompeo went to korea kim jong—un was not there and he was almost an up, so are they going to be asking questions that the nuclear threat has gone away? absolutely, and the healing was originally scheduled to talk about north korea because they have not been briefed about the policy since the summit between president trump and kim jong—un and

you remember the declaration was very vague and he went to pyongyang to fill in the details and hasn't reported anything publicly about anything successful. he has reported that the north koreans have begun to dismantle a testing site and that was in line with what was promised but he said he also promised to the nuclear eyes and they must fulfil both promises, so they will want to get him on as much detail as possible over whether anything concrete has been decided and how long the administration will wait for those steps to take place. thanks very much. that is one committee that has had the lot of contentious times what this administration. talking of a very far—away foreign policy, we already know that at some point in time what hasn't committed this load over the surface of the planet mars. today,

scientists announced they found a la ke scientists announced they found a lake and it is quite a big lake, some 20 kilometres across, and this is the first time we have learned of persistent body of water existing on the planet today in present times. it opens all manner of exciting possibilities, including the possibility of life. though there is one large problem —this water exists at between —10 and —30 degrees celsius which suggests it is full of salt. 0ur science correspondent victoria gill is here. so many questions for you. first of all, how do we know that it is a lake? this is all from radar instrumentation on a spacecraft that has been orbiting mars for 15 years, essentially bombarding different areas, but they looked at the polar ice caps because it has been suggested as the most likely point where you might find liquid water. life as we understand it needs

listed water to exist and that became the target for this radar experiment. essentially you fire radar signals and look for their cause. they give you a kind of visible data signal of what kind of surface you are bouncing your signal off, so all you can see is lines in the actual data, but one of them, just because of the fuzziness and the possession beneath the surface and the kind of indication that that gives of what substance that might be, it is the tell—tale eckel of liquid water. it got me thinking, landing on mars, this is where we're going to go because we know there is a body of water. is it deep, doesn't replenish? do we get more of it? we have to develop at 1.5 kilometres through the ice cap in the first place, so a big hurdle. there is the

problem of, this is a very exciting discovery, but the scientists have been looking at these echoes for yea rs been looking at these echoes for years to make sure that what they are seeing is definitively water, and they compare that with analysing the kind of subglacial lakes that we see in antarctica. very brainy and cold,... a bit like the dead sea. so you could slot in it? if you could get to mars in the first place, yes! these are all the questions the scientists are not acting. i think what christian wants to ask is whether they conceal his yacht on it? what is the big difference between the implemented traces of water that scientists have found in the past and, what this word is that intrigued me, permanent, what is the significance? the key significance is that with a stable body of water,

you have potential habitat, so intermittent flow could just be meltwater, because we have seen this frozen desert that mars is, that we have seen images from because there are have seen images from because there a re rovers have seen images from because there are rovers trundling around right now, so that are these polar ice caps and if the water is trickling down through mars, it doesn't provide a habitat, but what this la ke provide a habitat, but what this lake does is provide a stable body we re lake does is provide a stable body were something good lead. we have analogues for those kinds of subglacial lakes on the run planet, and although they are incredibly extreme environments, on some of those lakes you find microbes, so thatis those lakes you find microbes, so that is what is so tantalising, that this could be an x marks the spot on the treasure map of figuring out where to look. fascinating, thank you. before i let you go, all this

means that we can explore mars? it opens up the potential, that we could go and at least there would be some water if we could find a way of the filling and purifying? that is the filling and purifying? that is the hope and elon musk says he wants before they are in the next 20 yea rs, before they are in the next 20 years, so give semi—target! before they are in the next 20 years, so give semi-target! beyond 100 days outside broadcast on the planet mars. elon musk and christian fraser. the trump administration has unveiled a $12 billion plan aimed at helping us farmers hurt by the intensifying trade war. the aid is intended to protect the industry as countries like china raise taxes on us products such as soybeans in response to the president's new tariffs. but is this the help that farmers really need ? we're joined on the line from claremont, minnestoa by soyabean farmer mike petefish. you have been on the programme before, great to have you back. just

tell us, what kind of impact are the targets currently having on your farm and the profits you make? on my farm and the profits you make? on my farm specifically the amount of soya beans i raise, it has cost me close to $250,000 at last value. if the government aid programme donald trump was talking about, will that help you? it will do something, i don't think it will completely replace the lost economic opportunity, and what is really concerning is what the future looks like. even if there is 12 billion will address the financial hardships we have had to face, what about next year than the year after? do they intend to get $12 billion every year to bump up the market?” intend to get $12 billion every year to bump up the market? i don't think thatis to bump up the market? i don't think that is reasonable or feasible. most farmers i know would prefer to sell goods rather than depend on government hand—outs. i know you

bought it for donald trump, do you like this policy or would you rather he reversed the tariffs? agriculture andi he reversed the tariffs? agriculture and i believe benefits from trade. here in the united states we are very competitive on a global stage, and like you said we would rather sell our products in the marketplace with no tariffs are government involvement and let the market sort it out, and we think we can compete on that stage. so is this something that he would disagree with the president only? ice takes specific issue with this policy, even though i voted for him, you obviously get all or nothing from our candidates you don't necessarily agree 100% but what a candidate does or says, so i would take issue with the president on this trade policy. i think trade is an issue that needs to be addressed, but what is concerning to as is the financial impact it is

having and the time. if we have a better trade deal and a couple of yea rs' better trade deal and a couple of years' time that won't matter because farmers are dealing with falling prices and negative returns on their businesses. we don't have two or three years of money to keep losing money and wait for better trade deals, we need them now. when we had and tardis in europe years ago we had butter mountains and milk la kes. ago we had butter mountains and milk lakes. where are all the soya beans going to go? are new markets you can exploit? i wouldn't agree with the possession of the federal government buying commodities, i think that the two stockpiles that eventually still need to be concerned by the traditional channels. you are not going to create a market overnight, these are things that have been developed over the last 20 years with all our trading partners, so we need to continue to work on those

relationships orform need to continue to work on those relationships or form new ones but it is not a quick fix, so tampering with something that is working is what is concerning. we wish you the best, thank you for sharing your thoughts. why are american soya beans going down in value and wire brazilian soya beans going up in price? it is interesting. when i read about the tariffs imposed by china on american soya beans pushing the price down, because i thought if they are putting a tax effectively on it you'd think it would raise the price of soya beans, but the thing is american soya beans farmers export one third of the total crop to china, and now effectively the market has been taken away so they have a glut on the market, but brazil can carry on exporting the soya beans, and american soya beans taken out of the supply chain for china, so brazilian prices are going

up. ithink china, so brazilian prices are going up. i think that constitutes almost afun up. i think that constitutes almost a fun fact! i will give you that one, quite interesting. go to the top of the class. your soya bean corresponded. let's move onto something totally different. a swedish student managed to temporarily halt the deportation of an afghan asylum seeker after she booked the same flight as the afghan and refused to sit down unless he was taken off the plane. elin ersson streamed her protest live on facebook, showing a tense standoff with the airline crew and other passengers who wanted her to get off the plane. some people though did support her action. here's how the events unfolded. iam not i am not going to sit down and tell this person is off the plane. because he will most likely get killed. there is a turkish guy helping me

out and telling me what i am doing is right. he is with me. some people are is right. he is with me. some people a re really is right. he is with me. some people are really applauding all this but i am doing. they are taking his bags out so i am just waiting for the attendant to state that it is ok from me to go out the back of the plane. applause. this is an interesting story because it got me thinking that politically on the programme over the course of the last year we have been speaking a lot about anti—immigration movements and we have seen it happen in the united states and then you had been countries and most recently in italy, and harvard university recently released a study showing that people's perception of immigration is not often the reality of emigration, especially when it comes to things like numbers of

immigrants, and we can look at this. in us, people believe immigrants are 37% of pop. guess how much they actually make 7 guess how much they actually make up? a much lower percentage, something like 13%. people are out of whack. the simple united kingdom. people in the uk think immigrants make up 32% of the population. again, they make up 13%. people's perception of immigrants and what they do is also out of whack. people believe 42% of immigrants in the uk are unemployed but in fact it is only 14%. and you have this big disparity in italy. anti—immigrant parties being elected. italians spent 27% of immigrants are unemployed but it is only 6%. have described to say that the facts

don't always match the reality and the story is not always being told totally accurately received totally accurately. some people would save 13%, it sounds across the board in britain, but we know there are pockets that are more than 13%. and also in the us. but surely frustrations are greatest where the impact is still the greatest, so it is in small places that you have an influx and it is the pace of that influx that has raised frustrations and concerns around the country. the pace of influx is set to increase in europe but not here. in america it is coming down, and the point is that whether the pace is picking up slowing down people's perception of numbers is not always accurate. alerted to a line of breaking news about the second meeting with vladimir putin set to take place in

washington. a statement from john bolton, the national security adviser, who says the president believes the next bilateral meeting should take place after the russian which aren't is over. it is confusing this next bit. we have agreed it will be after the first of the year, january one? they believe the year, january one? they believe the investigation will be finished by january? i don't the investigation will be finished byjanuary? i don't think they know when they knew of investigation will be finished but what is interesting to me is there a feeling in the white house that they don't want to be dealing with a russia summit in washington, dc ahead of those mid—term elections and maybe they wa nt to mid—term elections and maybe they want to push the full story out of the way. this is beyond 100 days. still to come — the british woman who wants to divorce her husband but has been told that she can't by the supreme court. a report into historical claims of children being abused at a psychiatric hospital in derbyshire has said the doctor running it would have been

questioned if he were still alive. former patients described the hospital as a place of "pure hell". sima kotecha reports. for decades, a hospitalfor for decades, a hospital for troubled and vulnerable children set in the derbyshire countryside. for now, scores of allegations that it was the scene of widespread abuse. and at the centre of those allegations, doctor kenneth miller, the man in charge from 1947 until his death. the first day, i was put straight into a sale and all my clothes taken of me. the door opens and he walks in witha of me. the door opens and he walks in with a kidney dish and a syringe. david says he was just 12 at the time when he was plied with the so—called truth serum. the injected

me and lay down on the floor, i was ona me and lay down on the floor, i was on a mattress, and they put him mattress on my face and got a fluid on me, which was ether, knocks you out. today a three—year police investigation involving testimony from 100 witnesses concluded that the doctor was still alive he would be questioned about potential offences. in the report officers said treatment methods are known to have included sedation, where you'll be are put to sleep to allow for memory testing. the thought involved interviewing patients in a drug induced state in order that they recall thoughts and feelings that they would normally conceal. the police have repeatedly said no inference can be drawn as to mr milner‘s guilt. even though the doctor has died, in the minds of

many of his accusers he remains very much alive. a british woman who wants to divorce her husband has been told today she will not be allowed to. married for 14 years, she lost her supreme court appeal. her husband has said he doens‘t want the divorce to go ahead. under the current law in england and wales, unless people can prove their marriage has broken down due a serious ‘fault‘, then the only way to get a divorce is to live apart for five years. so for the time being mrs 0wens will have to remain in what she called a ‘loveless marriage'. we'rejonied by liz trinder who is professor of socio—legal studies at exeter university. good to have with us. i have never of this. if this be rolling up a step in the mad judge something quite common? it is highly unusual. most respondents who petitioned divorce accept that if they are

spokes wants to divorce they will have to accept it. obviously you need to match people to make a marriage work so it is a highly unusual case, a very stubborn husband and a slightly unusual approach by the judge, husband and a slightly unusual approach by thejudge, so it is pretty rare, but it raises the wider question of how unsatisfactory the current divorce law is in england and wales. it sounds like these are divorce rules written further different time when people didn't live as long and marriages didn't have to last as long and don't account for the fact two people can just decide they don't want to be married for no particular fault? the current law is almost 50 years old and was introduced in 1969 when married was a completely different proposition saw men went out to work and women stayed at home, no

same—sex marriage, sought a very different time and i think nowadays we think of marriage is something thatis we think of marriage is something that is based on consent, so it needs two people to consent to marry, and i think most people's assumption is that it needs ongoing consent, you can't force people to live together and that is why there are such strong pressure now for reform of divorce law. what sort of reform? most people think it is wrong and unhelpful to expect people to throw allegations of faults against each other, so almost half of divorces are based on behaviour, and that is really unusual internationally. in france and scotland, only about 6% of divorces are based on fault and damp england and wales it is 60%, which is ten times higher, and that is simply

because the laws are out of date and the only reason to get a quick divorce is to use fault otherwise you have a long waiting period. thank you. we have to leave it there, thank you forjoining us. a republican politician in the united states has resigned after he was tricked into exposing his buttocks and using racist language by the british comedian, sacha baron cohen. jason spencer was filmed while taking part in what he thought was an anti—terrorist training class by baron cohen, who was posing as a former colonel in the israeli army. he refused to step down from the georgia house of representatives after the footage was broadcast on sunday — but relented after widespread criticism. can you just look before it goes off screen at sasha baron cohen's face before it goes off screen, because when i look at this i think, how did

he fault of it? but then you wonder how people fell for ali g as well. this is what such a baron cohen does. i know more about the ali g case, my husband turned up at quantico and the whole of quantico was an uproar terrified that another journalist was along to deep them into doing something they haven't realised. he sends a letter that is in black and normal letter looking foran in black and normal letter looking for an interview and there is some debate about whether the tactics are appropriate or not and in this case clearly the congressman said something unacceptable and he has since said he shouldn't have said it. here is one person, you may not remember this because you're far too young, this is ali g interviewing somebody you may recognise a few yea rs somebody you may recognise a few years ago. is yet in or is you end it? it sounds like a good idea and i
