president trump says he called off an attack on iran with minutes to spare, because too many people would have been killed. he said they had three targets in their sights. tehran has warned the us against aggression. russia has ordered a ban from next month on passenger flights to georgia, following clashes in the capital, tbilisi, sparked by a speech in parliament by a russian politician. president putin signed the decree in response to what the kremlin called anti—russian provocations. thousands of protesters have gathered outside the georgian parliament, for a second night. a mass protest outside hong kong's police headquarters has ended in the past few hours. plans to introduce a contentious extradition bill had seen thousands take to the streets and sparked the territory's worst political crisis in decades. police have now cleared the area. the foreign office minister, mark field, has been suspended

from the government, after grabbing a climate—change protestor and marching her out of a dinner in the city of london. mr field said he acted instinctively when the woman approached the stage, during a speech by the chancellor philip hammond. the minister has apologised. the woman he confronted has said he needs anger management classes. here's our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford. in red dresses, suffragette—style sashes and dinnerjackets, the climate emergency protesters had little difficulty getting past security and into a room full of senior politicians and bankers. there, they staged a noisy protest as the chancellor, phillip hammond, tried to make his speech. some diners intervened and there was pushing and shoving. among the protesters, janet barker, a long—term greenpeace activist. she starts to make her way

to the top table and the chancellor and the governor of the bank of england, at which point foreign office minister mark field intervenes and angrily manhandles her out of the room, holding her by the back of the neck. can you get this person out? two months ago, he had called on police to take a firmer grip on climate protesters. today, janet barker told the bbc she didn't want to go to the police, but she had concerns about the minister. i would quite like him to go on anger management perhaps, and i hope he doesn't do it again, because there was some serious anger there. but for me, the concern is the environment. it is what i've lived for. i've done it for 22 years and i will continue to do it. mark field has apologised, saying it was an instinctive reaction, but the prime minister was very concerned and suspended him as a minister. he recognises that what happened was an overreaction,

but what we need now, in his interests but also in the interests of the lady involved, is a proper independent inquiry by the cabinet office. greenpeace said mark field's actions were an assault, but what exactly is the law? the first question is did he honestly believe that it was necessary for him to use force? and then the second question would be, was the force that he used reasonable in the circumstances as he believed them to be? emergency! this is an emergency! you've made your point. the city of london, which organised the dinner, said it was reviewing security, but it was the minister's actions that caused the greatest shock. daniel sandford, bbc news. now on bbc news, the travel show. this week on the travel show colin 50 yea rs this week on the travel show colin 50 years since stonewall we are in

new york ahead of the world of pride celebration. it is only now we realise what a big impact they all made. a pie in peru and island hopping in europe, our global girl is back to answer more of your questions and i ain't the town back ata questions and i ain't the town back at a festival for goths. that is called. i am at a festival for goths. that is called. iam not at a festival for goths. that is called. i am not sure i will get past customs here. this week i am exploring whitby in the north—east of england. a pretty town with a bit of a dark side. more

than 120 years ago, this place was a creation of one of literature ‘s most terrifying monsters. stay tuned to find out which one. but first we are in new york as a city is up to host 4 million visitors for world pride, perhaps the biggest event in the calendar for many in the community. this year will be especially pregnant though as it marks the 50th anniversary of the stonewall riots, an event that marked the start of the struggle of recognition, right and respect. we sent our lgbt correspondence to find out more. new york, a city that is a lwa ys out more. new york, a city that is always held a special place in my heart. i love the pace, the energy and the excitement. but more than anything it is a cd that i have found inclusive, where people like me can be themselves. when i was going up, i didn't really think

about what had happened before i was alive to enable me to live such a free and open lie. it is something a lot of young people don't know. we do not think about the history behind the accepting community. it is nice to come to new york and see that for the 50th anniversary of stonewall we a re that for the 50th anniversary of stonewall we are celebrating the past and looking at the people that allowed us to be so free. in the us, the 1960s was an error of his and protests. —— era. the 1960s was an error of his and protests. -- era. women were fighting for their rights, blacks we re fighting for their rights, blacks were fighting, latinos and we just said, what about us? why not us? why not me? on june 28, 1969, rides at the stonewall inn on christopher street would mark the birth of the modern gay rights movement. this is

where it is. where it all happen. he was 18 at the time and had arrived in the city a few weeks earlier. what is like to be back here? in the city a few weeks earlier. what is like to be back here ?m in the city a few weeks earlier. what is like to be back here? it is a sort of emotional. the people who helped educate me. what we needed to do to create a real movement, to create real equality. what was it like that night? just like any other normal night. we were inside having a great time. i was standing in the back, near the dance floor. then i looked over to someone and said, what's happening? they said, very casually, it's a raid. i had not beenin casually, it's a raid. i had not been in once i was nervous. police budged and started pushing people around. anybody who looked like they we re around. anybody who looked like they were successful they said take out your wallet and they took their money. it was right in front of

everybody‘s face and they did not ca re everybody‘s face and they did not care because that is how you treated lg bt care because that is how you treated lgbt people care because that is how you treated lg bt people in care because that is how you treated lgbt people in those days. out here, police tried to disperse us. we would not disperse. it was the first time that gay people said to police, no. this is our neighbourhood, you're not going to tell us and throw us off our street. we pick up stones and through them. the protists raged for several nights and led to the first pride march in 1970. the stone —— stonewall inn has become a landmark and attracts visitors from across the world. become a landmark and attracts visitors from across the worldm was not easy. many of us went to

jail. many of us would beat. it has been a long 50 years but guess what, we are further along than i would have ever expected. i cannot really imagine what it must‘ve been like to there on that day when stonewall riots the account. for them, it was just a protest. they were sticking up just a protest. they were sticking upfor just a protest. they were sticking up for their rights and doing what they thought they needed to do and it is only now we realise what impact they made. many cultural institutions have embraced opportunity to delve deeper into lg bt opportunity to delve deeper into lgbt history opportunity to delve deeper into lg bt history and opportunity to delve deeper into lgbt history and culture, highlighting the bravery of some of the less well—known figures. highlighting the bravery of some of the less well-known figures. some of the less well-known figures. some of the most important people are transgender people, silver and marshall, a lot of them think of them in terms of their participation but they were really major activists at the time and on the front line. the whole community came together.

yes, both the new and older generation. lesbian, gay, transgender activists. generation. lesbian, gay, tra nsgender activists. lesbians unite. lots of people were willing to come out of the closet. it is sad this will keep the memory alive and aspire future generations. i am 27 and this is a first time i have seen many of these pieces. why should we ca re many of these pieces. why should we care about this? people liking things on facebook, it is very hard to realise the real oppression people face in the 1960s and how they were able to make a difference and the way they change society by getting personally involved in politics, joining organisations, putting their bodies on the line in demonstrations. i think we need to appreciate today and also be inspired to know we can make a difference again. and decades on,

with millions of people descending on new york for world pride, art is still playing a central role. there are concerns that the events are becoming too corporate. what are some of the big things happening? a project of a local group of artists and they are putting 50 murals all around new york city, letting people know about the 50 years. some people would say that is over commercialisation? that is the double—edged sword. we need money to be able to do the programmes, represent marginalised people in the lg bt represent marginalised people in the lgbt community but we also want to make sure that interests are being met first and foremost. is there still a need for pride. it used to bea still a need for pride. it used to be a protest now we have straight people coming into our spaces and we re people coming into our spaces and were going into theirs. do we still

need the segregated space? as we gain more acceptance, we need to be accepted more in straight spaces but we also want to preserve our culture andi we also want to preserve our culture and i think that is the future of the community, to be able to use corporate money to build spaces we need rather than using corporate money to build advertising. a chance encounter with a group of students provides an emotional reminder of just how far the movement has come. iam just how far the movement has come. i am proud of what happened there. it makes you proud to see you all here today because it says the work we did is filtering through. i think any of us who were that night would never have expected it would have come as far as we have. i am shocked. i never thoughti come as far as we have. i am shocked. i never thought i would be able to get married, to express publicly i have a husband... sorry, iam publicly i have a husband... sorry, i am really emotional. it is

something i really never thought i could do. thank you, guys. if you cannot make it to new york this year, there are plenty of other lg bt eve nts this year, there are plenty of other lgbt events happening worldwide. type a pride is one of the largest pride celebrations in asia. this yea r‘s pride celebrations in asia. this year's celebration comes a month after this island became the first asian country to legalise same—sex marriage. for a new tradition, asian country to legalise same—sex marriage. fora new tradition, on the 20th ofjuly, had to brighten on the 20th ofjuly, had to brighten on the south—east coast of england for one of the largest international trains focused events. the marlborough theatre will run a programme showcasing performances from a range of artists who all exist under the transgender or non— binary umbrella. if you would rather

today, one family smokes herring the old—fashioned way, today, one family smokes herring the old —fashioned way, to today, one family smokes herring the old—fashioned way, to create a time—honoured breakfast classic. keepers. hello. good morning. how are you doing, barry? very well, thanks. good to see you. i hear this is one of the oldest businesses in whitby? yes, we established in 1872. my whitby? yes, we established in 1872. my great, great grandfather established the business. the same method has been brought through. basically we get the raw herring, we split it up and take it inside out and wash it, and it is brined for about a0 minutes in saltwater, and then we smoke it for about 20, 22, 2a hours. in the 1800s it was done like this so that would keep. can i try one, actually? of course, we will need to cook it. great. this is what i like, service with a smile. what do i do, just to lift this up?

let's get in there. no messing about. look at these bones! they are fine, really soft. you will not notice. i will be all right, yeah? i'm sure you will survive it. that's good. ican i'm sure you will survive it. that's good. i can get that smoky taste. that is really lovely. i'm going to have another bit. cheers, barry. you're welcome, thank you. hello! this week i have advice on combining two great mediterranean islands on the same trip, and combating altitude sickness in peru. first, though, this summer sees the opening of a new tourist itinerary in north iceland. the arctic coast

way embroidered is 21 villages and four islands into an itinerary that includes 800 kilometres of roads and trucks. the aim is to introduce visitors to the pure nature, vibrant culture and daily lives of people living close to the arctic circle. next, pam thackeray wants to combine two great mediterranean islands. we wa nt to two great mediterranean islands. we want to explore corsica and sardinia ina want to explore corsica and sardinia in a two—week break, and we are wondering best to do this. there is a clear geographical logic in combining corsica and sardinia, because the two islands are barely ten kilometres apart. fly into bastia in the north of corsica, a gem of a town sat around an elegant harbour. take the train to the capital, ajaccio, which has ancient roots and a sunny disposition. frequent very sale from the southern tip of corsica to sardinia in about one hour. consider renting a car to

explore the much bigger island of sardinia, three times larger under five times more populous than corsica. plan and almost circular trip, cutting down the eastern shore to cagliari, the capital, spanning carthaginian, buys untimed, roman, spanish and italian areas. then had north and west to alghero, a pretty wa nt town north and west to alghero, a pretty want town which will make an excellent entity or holiday, with beaches, history and natural good looks. russell kennedy is heading to peru. we have had conflicting suggestions about how to combat altitude sickness. what is your advice? russell, i have managed to get to a500 metres in peru without any ill effects, but perhaps i have just been lucky. so i have called in some expert advice for you. ok, so if you arrive imperative in a high altitude village, it is important to make sure you prepare your body for the altitude. you need to make sure

that you hydrate regularly, drink a lot of fluids to excrete the waste to help your body acclimatise more quickly. also be able to recognise the signs and symptoms of high altitude illness, headaches, nausea, vomiting, disorientation. those can all be prevented by going at a slower pace, concentrating on your breathing, and making sure that you hydrate well during your entire journey. that's all for now, but do keep sending me your travel problems andi keep sending me your travel problems and i will do my best to come up with some solutions. for now, from me, simon calder, goodbye. and to finish this week, i am in whitby. a coastal town in the north—east of england, that is also the spiritual home to one of literature's most terrifying monsters. legend has it that a holiday in whitby provided

author bram stoker with the inspiration for his most famous creation, dracula. and both the town and its ruined abbey feature in the novel. twice a year, as many as 10,000 visitors come here for an event that pays tribute to the town's every reputation. —— eerie reputation. this is the whitby goth festival, and this year it is celebrating its 25th anniversary. wow, some of these costumes are just some impressive, they really make an effort. that jacket looks incredible! tell me about the story behind this? well, this is what i call wea ra ble behind this? well, this is what i call wearable sculpture. i took reference from sort of old mansion houses and cathedrals and took the

architecture and thought about, you know, applying it to public stop could you give us a little spin? of course, mate. oh, my days. look at the intricacy on the back stop stained glass panels are actually backlit, so at night time they flicked and actually eliminate. wow, looking around here, i am feeling really underdressed.” looking around here, i am feeling really underdressed. i reckon i could sort you out with a nice jacket and a nice hat. thank garth, and most people think of dark clothing, a gloomy attitude, and the post punk music of the 1980s. —— think goth. is goth still a big thing, then? huge, it is getting bigger and bigger all the time. and what about all this stuff? this is really cool, isn't it? that's a clock! look at that. this is it, this is clever stuff. is that not cool? that is cool. not sure if i will get past customs without. let's

see this. yeah. is that not cool, or as but not cool? it is cool. lot of people, including myself, are guilty of having a stereotypical view of the goth movement, but do you think you could recognise for the quality of the art? because what i am seeing here is amazing. yeah, well, the craftsmanship in some cases is extraordinary, worthy of standing in any art gallery anywhere. the event has come a long way since it started in 199a, when founderjoe hampshire had the idea to bring together goths from all over the uk. i thought that whitby was quite central in the country, but i also made the mistake

of thinking there must be lots of dracula conventions here, and they would see goths all the time. because of the bram stoker thing? yeah, but in fact that wasn't true. all these black clad people turned up all these black clad people turned up at the town was like, well, satanists are visiting! there was a bit ofan satanists are visiting! there was a bit of an uproar, the police came around and everything. seriously? totally. and people asked me if i would do it again, but in the town got into it. they liked us to come. how proud you feel to have turned this tiny festival into this big event now? i think for me, it is great, this is where all those people who are maybe alone or kind of in little pockets in their own town get to be the big fish in the pond forjust town get to be the big fish in the pond for just the town get to be the big fish in the pond forjust the weekend, and the group of funky alternative people have formed this little kind of allegiance and affinity with this little local community. the goth weekend also hosts other events which share its welcoming tone. so

we are here today for the first audition in our 2019 model contest. so this model contest aims to promote and celebrate diversity within the modelling industry. goths, punks, people with tattoos, piercings, body modifications. so it really is a wide range of individuals. this competition really is sort of allowing people to say, this is who i am, i am proud of who iam,i this is who i am, i am proud of who iam, iam an this is who i am, i am proud of who i am, i am an individual and i stand out. making it look like a mugshot, like i am a prisoner. take it away! some people might find the goth style a little intimidating, but i have to say, the whitby goth

festival is a fun, inclusive event where everyone is made to feel welcome. there next weekend takes place from october 25—27. it has been an amazing day here in whitby. make sure you join us next week, when... three, two, one! this is really... i am knee deep and i am still sinking further. mike is getting muddy in thailand, as he visits a community threatened by climate change that has been helped by some green fingered travellers. and don't forget to check out our social media, where you will find
