hello, welcome to outside source, i'm ros atkins. the pandora papers exposed wealth from dozens of leaders. a major donor to the conservative party is also caught up in the scandal, and he denies any wrongdoing. journalists have been looking into 12 million documents in a year—long investigation. we will speak to one of them from bbc arabic. facebook is accused by one of its former execs of putting the growth of its business ahead of user safety. growth of its business ahead of user safe . w , growth of its business ahead of user

guardian on this investigation. mohamed amersi is wealthy and well—connected. here he is talking about the dangers of corruption. corruption is a very, very heinous crime. every stolen dollar robs the poor of an equal opportunity in life. so, where did his wealth come from? some of it comes from this company in sweden, a company fined almost $1 billion for bribery. telia was prosecuted over a corrupt telecoms deal. the firm paid $220 million to an offshore company secretly controlled by gulnara karimova, the daughter of the then president of uzbekistan. the american authorities described it as a $220 million bribe. we have obtained documents showing how mr amersi was involved in the deal in one e—mail, a telia boss writes...

mr amersi responds... and here's mr amersi's invoice for his part in project uzbekistan. he got a success fee of $500,000 for his work. mr amersi's lawyers said the offshore company had been vetted and approved by telia and its involvement did not raise any red flags to mr amersi. all of these matters because he has given more than half a million to the conservative party. we've got details the payments included expenses for lab risk — — lavish corporate entertainment. they were not evidenced by copies of receipts. the internal report recommended tele a's relationship to terminated. who is

government policy is in no way influenced by the donations the party receives. they are entirely separate. "we are motivated by the priorities of the british public acting in the national interest." richard bilton, bbc news. this is one of many revelations coming from the pandora papers, which have expose the dealings of hundreds of world leaders, politicians and billionaires. more than 600 journalists and 117 countries have been finding stories that are being published this week. a bbc investigation discovered one.... let's speak to the bbc�*s and

the app is toxic for teenagers. facebook play down any negative effects on its users, but this study found that 32% of teenage girls surveyed said when they felt bad about their bodies, instagram made them feel worse. francis haugen will be testifying before a senate subcommittee on tuesday. here's the response to all of this from technology researcher stephanie hair. i technology researcher stephanie hair. ., technology researcher stephanie hair. ~' , ., , , ., hair. i think the problem is that we have heard — hair. i think the problem is that we have heard these _ hair. i think the problem is that we have heard these stories _ hair. i think the problem is that we have heard these stories and - have heard these stories and sewed many _ have heard these stories and sewed many different _ have heard these stories and sewed many different ways. _ have heard these stories and sewed many different ways. what's - have heard these stories and sewedj many different ways. what's helpful if she _ many different ways. what's helpful if she managed _ many different ways. what's helpful if she managed to _ many different ways. what's helpful if she managed to get _ many different ways. what's helpful if she managed to get so _ many different ways. what's helpful if she managed to get so many- if she managed to get so many documents _ if she managed to get so many documents. but— if she managed to get so many documents. but these - if she managed to get so many. documents. but these problems if she managed to get so many- documents. but these problems are known _ documents. but these problems are known and — documents. but these problems are known and facebook's _ documents. but these problems are known and facebook's users - documents. but these problems are known and facebook's users i - documents. but these problems are known and facebook's users i thinkl known and facebook's users i think have accepted _ known and facebook's users i think have accepted a _ known and facebook's users i think have accepted a certain _ known and facebook's users i think have accepted a certain amount - known and facebook's users i think have accepted a certain amount ofl have accepted a certain amount of harm _ have accepted a certain amount of harm in_ have accepted a certain amount of harm in exchange _ have accepted a certain amount of harm in exchange for— have accepted a certain amount of harm in exchange for the - have accepted a certain amount of harm in exchange for the benefits| harm in exchange for the benefits that come — harm in exchange for the benefits that come from _ harm in exchange for the benefits that come from the _ harm in exchange for the benefits that come from the convenience i harm in exchange for the benefits| that come from the convenience it offers _ that come from the convenience it offers it's— that come from the convenience it offers. it's really— that come from the convenience it offers. it's really about _ that come from the convenience it offers. it's really about is- offers. it's really about is facebook _ offers. it's really about is facebook breaking - offers. it's really about is facebook breaking any. offers. it's really about is- facebook breaking any laws? they offers. it's really about is— facebook breaking any laws? they say they're _ facebook breaking any laws? they say they're doing — facebook breaking any laws? they say they're doing everything _ facebook breaking any laws? they say they're doing everything they- facebook breaking any laws? they say they're doing everything they can - they're doing everything they can publicly— they're doing everything they can publicly to — they're doing everything they can publicly to stop _ they're doing everything they can publicly to stop these _ they're doing everything they can publicly to stop these harms, - they're doing everything they can publicly to stop these harms, but behind _ publicly to stop these harms, but behind the —

and i think our reporting shows this deserves credit for hiring a team of researchers that are really looking into the harms that its platform might cause. we've reviewed thousands of documents showing the kind of in—depth research that they do. i think the question that raises, however, and the question miss haugen is raising is what actions is the company taking after the fact? and we see in the documents, plenty of staffers saying they've seen facebook being slow to respond or not respond to some of the recommendations, or only implement them in emergencies. help us understand — implement them in emergencies. help us understand more what you've learned about the way facebook handles misinformation when it becomes aware of it.— handles misinformation when it becomes aware of it. well, what we see through — becomes aware of it. well, what we see through these _ becomes aware of it. well, what we see through these documents - becomes aware of it. well, what we see through these documents is - becomes aware of it. well, what we | see through these documents is that a company is actually aware that its products and systems can fail and cause harm. for instance, there was

plenty of evidence in the beginning of this year that facebook's comment sections on post from authoritative sources were swarming with comments opposed to vaccination. they were struggling to tackle this problem at the same time in public, mark zuckerberg was bragging about what facebook was doing to promote the vaccine. 0verand facebook was doing to promote the vaccine. over and over again, you see a disjuncture between facebook's public statements and what people inside the company are finding. while you and your colleagues at the journal are doing, for politicians also getting involved. francis haugen will speak at this subcommittee this week. how does the dimension of this play into the story? dimension of this play into the sto ? ~ , ., ., ., dimension of this play into the sto ? ~ i. ~ ., ., dimension of this play into the sto?~ «a, ., , story? well, you know, what happens next is really — story? well, you know, what happens next is really an _ story? well, you know, what happens next is really an open _ story? well, you know, what happens next is really an open question. - next is really an open question. it depends in part on how facebook

what they're committing to do and actually doing. hello. it's been a day of sunshine and showers again today, but things are going to change overnight because we will find some rain moving in from the southwest. with that, the winds will strengthen. we're looking down to the southwest, this area doesn't look very much. it will thicken up and develop an area of low pressure and will give a bit more shape for the rain. that rain pushes eastwards across england and wales, and it's in that rain that we will find some gusty winds and heavy bursts of rain too. but scotland looks largely dry and here it's going to be quite chilly, close to

freezing. should be generally dry. we'll see the back of this rain across east anglia and the southeast of england, but the rain will linger in southeast scotland, much of northern england and wales, perhaps the midlands as well. all that wet weather is wrapped around an area of low pressure, and it's around this side of the low that will have the strongest of the wind. top numbers are only going to be into the bit teens or so. we should get some sunshine and showers across england and wales. that area of low pressure will continue to bring wind and rain into tuesday evening for a while before it moves away towards the continent. still quite windy. the cloud and showers should move away and we get them some time coming out. cloud will start to bring some rain into northern ireland. but temperatures for much of england and wales in particular should be a bit

important because we did not suppression. elimination was - important because we did not have vaccines. now we do. so we can begin to change the way we do things. ahead of the global climate summit in glasgow we will bring it a a new series of videos looking at the big carbon and he will start with the biggest of them all. china. the secret dealings of hundreds of world leaders, politicians, and billionaires have been exposed in the biggest leak of offshore documents in history. the pandora papers include revelations about the king ofjordan, the president of kenya, and that an air pollutant. it's a leak of almost 12 million documents that reveals hidden wealth, tax avoidance, and in some cases money laundering. by some of the worlds richest and most powerful people. more than 600 generalists and 117 countries have been going through the files for months finding stories that have been published this week. that includes the family

of this man came to's president who may have dominated the country but since independence and investigation reveals basically earned a network of offshore companies for decades. here is our kenyan reporter. at the very least it is very embarrassing to his legacy as he would be as transparent and possibly in trying to help the country out of corruption when he was running for office as required by law he said he set out all his assets and now that the public of public knowledge and reinventing the family has been keeping 13 companies in secret and tax havens and at least one of them run in a way in which its ownership cannot have been traced back to the family. we have a foundation where he's on mother has in the state as a direct beneficiary and upon her death the president to be the direct

beneficiary and the value of this company is not known. there is a company is not known. there is a company now that his brother runs and has told us $30 million and the third one which has an ownership and won the family used to buy an apartment in the uk of at least $1 million and sell another question is why so much secrecy and the source of all this money. the president says he is currently abroad. we will give a comprehensive response when he returns. he does say the pandora papers will go a long way in enhancing the financial transparency and openness we require in kenya and around the globe. let's have a look at some of the other world leaders named in the pantera papers and their responses. the billionaire prime minister allegedly failed to declare an offshore investment company used to buy two villas in the south of france for more than $60 million. he says the reports are

an attempt to discredit him before the upcoming election. the president and his family have long been accused of corruption and he has secretly been involved in property deals in the uk with more than $520 million. they had comment. russia's president has been linked to secret assets in monaco. this was the response to the kremlin. lode assets in monaco. this was the response to the kremlin. we did not see any hidden _ response to the kremlin. we did not see any hidden wealth _ response to the kremlin. we did not see any hidden wealth of _ response to the kremlin. we did not see any hidden wealth of putting's i see any hidden wealth of putting's in a circle. apparently publishing will continue. for now, we have not seen anything special. if there are serious publications that are based on something concrete and refer to something specific then we will be done with interest. so far, we see no reason. done with interest. so far, we see no reason-— done with interest. so far, we see no reason. ., ., ., , ., no reason. the pandora papers also reveal that — no reason. the pandora papers also reveal that this _ no reason. the pandora papers also reveal that this man, _ no reason. the pandora papers also reveal that this man, the _ no reason. the pandora papers also reveal that this man, the king - no reason. the pandora papers also reveal that this man, the king of. reveal that this man, the king of jordan secretly spent $10 million on a property empire in the uk and the us. it includes houses here in london and in malibu on the

california coast. let us someone who's been working on the story. can you give us more details of the allegations?— you give us more details of the alleaations? , �*, ., , ,, :: :: allegations? yes. it's actually $100 million, that — allegations? yes. it's actually $100 million, that is _ allegations? yes. it's actually $100 million, that is their _ allegations? yes. it's actually $100 million, that is their estimated - million, that is their estimated figure of this secret property empire that spreads across around the world. so as you mentioned the us, uk, there is a $68 million villa complex on the in california and a multi—million dollar apartment in london and washington, dc and beat are properties that have been registered through tax havens and painting so you're able to hide the true owner and the ultimate owner of these companies. now, it's important to say that there is no evidence of any quality but in a poor country such as driving i think it has raised questions about the boundaries between the public purse and the royal paris and allegations that the palace has been quick to

refute. ,, ., , ~ �* that the palace has been quick to refute. ,, ., , . �* ., ., refute. stay with us. we've had a full statement _ refute. stay with us. we've had a full statement on _ refute. stay with us. we've had a full statement on the _ refute. stay with us. we've had a full statement on the allegations | full statement on the allegations from the palace enjoyed them. it says media reports included inaccuracies and distracted and exaggerated facts. it goes on... if we bring you back in, let responsibly heard from thejordanian government and from thejordanians? as you say, that the government in the palace has called the reporting the palace has called the reporting the reporting defamatory and have said that they all the purchases have been made using his own private wealth and no public funds have been used at all for this and in fact the reason why they have used this offshore structure is these are properties that are used for oil

visits, private visits, and the royal family's safety was the main goal here. now, local media has shied away from reporting on this. most of the media today has focused on unrelated positive stories about the king. however, we have heard about one news organization enjoyed and that david carry a report about the leaks and washington post reports that they received that this organization enjoyed and received a call from jordanian intelligence to remove the article. however, social media is buzz with talk and criticism about this secret property empire. 0thers criticism about this secret property empire. others have defended the king and he's obviously a rich man and has the right to use his wealth as he sees fit. we and has the right to use his wealth as he sees fit.— as he sees fit. we worked on the pandora papers _ as he sees fit. we worked on the pandora papers and _ as he sees fit. we worked on the pandora papers and this - as he sees fit. we worked on the | pandora papers and this particular story. what was the process you went through once given access? you

a look at the countries village produce half of the world emissions. any climate solution has to involve china, the us, europe, and india. we will start with the biggest inventor of all. china. it produces 27% of all of the world's here much more than half is — twice as much as any other country which is why china matters. asjohn kerry emphasized his opposite number in beijing. lode his opposite number in bei'ing. we are all his opposite number in beijing. 2 are all going to be dealing with the certainty for the rest of our lives. this challenge is as big as any that we face in a global basis. in china my friend plays a soup role. but it is china willing _ my friend plays a soup role. but it is china willing to _ my friend plays a soup role. but it is china willing to pay _ my friend plays a soup role. but it is china willing to pay that - is china willing to pay that critical role? industrialization has lifted millions of chinese out of poverty but to build china how its industry is happening? as the where with all the top emitters, and it is check what's been promised and what's being done. china has made a

number of climate commitments. it's emissions have almost quadrupled since 1990 to about 1a billion tonnes of c02 per year. now it says emissions will peak before 2030. it's progress has shown a blue and it's on course to meet that target. right now china's emissions are going up unlike the us and eu. china has another aim, shown with a redline, it wants to be carbon neutral by 2060. for context, the us and eu are aiming for 2050. the president highlights correctly that western countries have been emitting high levels of carbon for far longer than china and in fact western industrialized economies were created on the back of fossil fuels and china says if the west once developing countries not to follow their example they should provide more financial support. developing countries need _ more financial support. developing countries need to _ more financial support. developing countries need to increase - more financial support. developing countries need to increase climate | countries need to increase climate ambition and action and make

concrete efforts to help developing countries accelerate the transition to clean and low carbon development. the issue is that however the west benefited from fossil fuels in the past, analysts now suggest china's current plan will not be enough to avoid a dangerous degree of global warming. they argue china would need to follow the yellow line that you can see here. the think tank would sit like this. aha, can see here. the think tank would sit like this-— can see here. the think tank would sit like this. a simple mathematical fact that if china _ sit like this. a simple mathematical fact that if china does _ sit like this. a simple mathematical fact that if china does not _ sit like this. a simple mathematical fact that if china does not meet - sit like this. a simple mathematical fact that if china does not meet the | fact that if china does not meet the conditions until 2030| did not think we have anything like a 50—50 chance of limiting global warming to 1.5 celsius. ., , of limiting global warming to 1.5 celsius. . , ., ., , ., celsius. that is, china argues that it is acting — celsius. that is, china argues that it is acting but _ celsius. that is, china argues that it is acting but that _ celsius. that is, china argues that it is acting but that it's _ celsius. that is, china argues that it is acting but that it's harder- celsius. that is, china argues that it is acting but that it's harder on i it is acting but that it's harder on developing countries to do this for others. ., ., , developing countries to do this for others. . ., , . ., developing countries to do this for others. . ., , _, ., ., others. china has committed to move the carbon neutrality _

itself. the group process 2a were approved in the first half of this year. that momentum behind coal with antenna's economy is hard to stop. here is the analyst.— here is the analyst. what is sto- -|n~ here is the analyst. what is stopping china _ here is the analyst. what is stopping china to _ here is the analyst. what is stopping china to go - here is the analyst. what isj stopping china to go further here is the analyst. what is i stopping china to go further in domestic coal is the fact that large sections of the economy is dependent on coal—fired power and a lot of people employed by coal. on coal-fired power and a lot of people employed by coal. another factor is manufacturing. _ people employed by coal. another factor is manufacturing. china - people employed by coal. another factor is manufacturing. china is l factor is manufacturing. china is often described as the world factory and as manufacturing has moved from the west emissions have as well. one estimate says 10% of china's emissions come from products made in china exploited and then consumed. those are some of the reasons for china's huge carbon footprint and what it does continue to invest in coal it's also investing in green technology. china is a world leader in solar power and build the equivalent of a new facility such as

this every day for the last three years. of course, that reduces the need for coal.— years. of course, that reduces the need for coal. our solar plants can save 50 or— need for coal. our solar plants can save 50 or 60,000 _ need for coal. our solar plants can save 50 or 60,000 tonnes - need for coal. our solar plants can save 50 or 60,000 tonnes of - need for coal. our solar plants can save 50 or 60,000 tonnes of coal| save 50 or 60,000 tonnes of coal each year. i am proud to doing this job and working in this industry. china's investment in solar and wind is creating cheaper, better technology but that many countries can use. it's also the world leader in electric cars and producing nearly half of the global output in the last ten years. china is acting to soak up some of the carbon it produces by planting millions of trees and trying a greener landscape that does not have large amounts of natural forest and this image shows progress being made and plant cover worldwide increased over the 20 years with china and india leading the way. tree planting is no separate for is coming emissions and its approach to curbing them cuts to a conundrum. china's middle class is

evidence of how industrialization has brought wealth and security to millions of people. right now china's government may well be the cost of cutting emissions has to be paid for by lower economic growth. some may argue that trade—off may soon go away. what they are tackling is a huge massive economy which is growing at 10% everything the year and they're trying to actually lift all of their population out of extreme poverty.— all of their population out of extreme poverty. which was their central goal- _ extreme poverty. which was their central goal. now, _ extreme poverty. which was their central goal. now, they've - extreme poverty. which was their| central goal. now, they've almost done that, then they can actually focus on how to reproduce energy. the issue is whether china reaches that point before it's too late for a mechanic. in a few minutes, i'll be speaking to a leading epidemiologist in new zealand because the government switched its covid—19 strategy from elimination to suppression and see if this epidemiologist — epidemiologist agrees.

away. even the most polished political script can be written in a moment. and what happens in the real world outside. we are here in the bbc news room. i story is that the biggest ever in of offshore data known as the pandora papers has exposed the secret wealth and financial dealings of dozens world leaders and the king ofjordan to vladimir putin. that to new zealand because there has been a major shift in covid—19 policy. after weeks of struggling to contain an outbreak of the delta variance, the government is abandoning its strategy to eliminate covid—19. here is the prime minister. igrui’ith strategy to eliminate covid-19. here is the prime minister.— is the prime minister. with this outbreak the _ is the prime minister. with this outbreak the return _ is the prime minister. with this outbreak the return to - is the prime minister. with this outbreak the return to zero - is the prime minister. with this outbreak the return to zero is l outbreak the return to zero is incredibly difficult. 0ur restrictions alone are not enough to achieve it quickly and in fact for

minister says lockdowns would only the and once 90% of the eligible population was vaccinated and it's not clear how long that will take and about 2 million new zealanders have been fully vaccinated and that's about a8% of the eligible population. a long way to go. we will speak to an epidemiologist who helped advised the government in its response. thank you forjoining us. do you agree with the prime minister's change of tactics? yes. the government _ minister's change of tactics? yes. the government had _ minister's change of tactics? i2; the government had signaled his change in approach some time ago and following a somewhat similar approach to singapore and australia and i think it's recognizing that elimination worked extremely well for the last 18 months and it's kept cases very well and in the longer term we did need to recommit more

and of course we have high effective vaccination cell things have changed. almost onlyjust over 50% to be at the target. that's right. definitely the plan was to look more at reconnecting early next year so that it's been brought forward by a real challenge of trying to control the outbreak and let lisa was an infection became very established and marginalized in south auckland and marginalized in south auckland and was very hard to stamp out the last lines of transmission. . do and was very hard to stamp out the last lines of transmission.— last lines of transmission. . do you acce -t last lines of transmission. . do you accept the — last lines of transmission. . do you accept the criticism _ last lines of transmission. . do you accept the criticism from _ last lines of transmission. . do you accept the criticism from new - accept the criticism from new zealanders i brought that if the policy at home is going to shift perhaps a policy and who can come back should also shift soon? i think

vaccines that prevent the transmission and that would be changing the equation more to what's looking at long—term elimination. i don't think that strategy is going. i think it's an option that new zealand will have that for the foreseeable future we are transitioning to a suppression approach. do you imagine using and getting to the point that the uk is apt with no restrictions in place anytime soon?— apt with no restrictions in place anytime soon? apt with no restrictions in place an ime soon? ., ., �* ,, anytime soon? now, i don't think so. i think we need _ anytime soon? now, i don't think so. i think we need to _ anytime soon? now, i don't think so. i think we need to keep _ anytime soon? now, i don't think so. i think we need to keep public- i think we need to keep public health and social measures working with vaccines to keep transmission at because they are still serious effects for some people for getting this infection.— this infection. thank you. you can aet this infection. thank you. you can get further _ this infection. thank you. you can get further analysis _ this infection. thank you. you can get further analysis from - this infection. thank you. you can get further analysis from outside i get further analysis from outside source whenever you want via various digital means. you can find it on a prayer while you can follow me on twitter at bbc was at as an tweet out all the different clips that we produce so if you want to find them

all in one place it's not a bad place to start. thank you for watching. that evening. it's been a day of sunshine and showers at them today. things are going to change overnight because he will find some rain moving in from the southwest. with that rain the wind will be strengthening and the way to bring the weather will be around in some areas tomorrow as well. we are looking down to the southwest in this area does not look very much like it will thicken up and develop an area of low pressure and we will get more shape to the rain and this is being we are expecting the rain to be around that night. it pushes east across england and wales and it's been we will find some windy and heavy rain as well. it will keep the temperature up but scotland looks dry and here it will be called in northern scotland close to

freezing and should be general each i am ireland as well. we will see the back of the rain in the southeast fairly quickly but it will linger in in scotland and much of northern england and wales feeding infant mittens as well and elect whether it's wrapped around an area of low pressure and it's iran decide together with the rain we will have the strongest wind. it will make you feel called and top members will be in the mid teens or so and he will get some sunshine and showers across southern parts of england and wales and it's dry across scotland and for northern ireland. the area of low pressure will bring when you mess and rain into tuesday evening for a while before it moves away towards the continent. it still windy and the continent. it still windy and the eastern side in particular on wednesday morning and they showers should move away and begin sunshine coming out but then coming in quickly from the atlantic we have got more cloudiness which will bring rain into northern ireland and during the afternoon. temperatures for much of england and wales should be a bit higher. this is the

situation as we head towards the middle part of the week and a leather friend middle part of the week and a leatherfriend has been bringing some rain and high pressure towards the south east of the uk it means we have a south westerly wind and it will draw in warm air and tropical maritime airand will draw in warm air and tropical maritime air and left temperatures as well. they will be a lot of cloudiness around for scotland and northern ireland and this is where we have most of the rain with drizzle around some hills and the brightest skies and sunshine towards the east but temperatures will be claiming close to 19 why 20
