facebook has just acknowledged a report, acknowledging that it has political propaganda and it has toainst that. it is the first thing that we have acknowledged that. it has also been blocking tens of thousands, set—top to broadcast this misinformation. it is much more visibly proactive than it has been in the past. it is desperate for people to think it has been taking this seriously. and we can confirm, that middlesbrough have lost two juicy, can confirm, that middlesbrough have lost twojuicy, going down can confirm, that middlesbrough have lost two juicy, going down from the premier league. we will see you tomorrow. thank you forjoining me. we can see what the weather is going to be doing over the next few days. it is certainly quiet at the moment. this is from our day one beaut. but look at the difference, on the north sea coast, and the wind, it was not even pleasant. this was the satellite picture. and we're going to see this pattern, on choose d, many of the western areas have sunshine, little rain. we can take a look at the forecast, on tuesday, and certainly the western isles

he has quite a long way to go, it has to go through the senate next?athered in the rose garden, there have been speeches, congratulatory applause, they have patted each other on the back. donald trump, in his speech, did say it isa donald trump, in his speech, did say it is a good plan but it will get better. what he means is it will have to get work done, because if it is to get through the senate there are various things that will be a problem for some. this 8 billion pot of money which has been put aside for those with pre—existing conditions, those with cancer, heart disease, diabetes, asthma, people that struggled to get insurance, that struggled to get insurance, that $8 billion is only for five yea rs that $8 billion is only for five years and it is uncertain how far that might go. while the congratulations are going on, those in the senate are looking at this wearily. we have already seen a tweet from lindsay graham, a leading republican, saying he is slightly wa ry republican, saying he is slightly wary of the bill. republicans can congratulat

he has been successful. you can see that in his diplomacy with a range of readers from prime minister may to president xi. president trump understand that america first does not mean america alone. to the contrary, prioritizing american interests means strengthening alliances and partnerships that help us extend our influence and improve the security of the american people. this trip is truly historic. no president has ever visited the homelands and holy sites of the jewish, christian and muslim faiths all on one trip. and what president trump is seeking is to unite the peoples of all faiths from around the common vision of peace, progress and prosperity. he will bring a message of tolerance and hope to billions, including to millions of americans, who profess these faiths. the president will focus on what unites us. the president's trip will begin in saudi arabia, home to the two holiest sites of islam. he will encourage our arab and muslim partners to take bold, new steps to promote peace and to confront t

he has said, in the past, he will ta ke he has said, in the past, he will take a tough stance on brexitghold, and my colleague is there. good morning! a very good morning to you. welcome to bordeaux. this is my guest, ettian millian, a journalist of sud west, one of the biggest regional newspapers in franch. you were telling me the name of your city? bordeaux is

committed an offence and he has committed an offence and he has committed an offence and he has committedt warrant, it is possible the metropolitan police, together with the crown prosecution service, will ask the court to revoke the domestic warrant of arrest and then the matter will come to an end the course rectify this and julian assange is free to go about his business. so, not to minimise the seriousness, that would be dealt with potentially relatively easily. the more complex matterfrom mr assange's point of view is whether the metropolitan police would then hold him while extradition proceedings to united states were started. the metropolitan police have no power to hold anybody unless there is an arrest warrant in existence or somebody commits a domestic offence, which mr assange has not. if there isa which mr assange has not. if there is a provisional warrant existence, issued at the request of the united states, he could be arrested on that, if that is in existence. but other than that, he is free to go about his business, he cannot be held in some sort of preventative detentio

he has not. it has gone up.imself at the very start. —— the very light. we are waiting as the two men continue their discussions and the transfer of those nuclear codes and that is the scene there in the splendour of the elysee palace and we will see them walk down those stairs. we are not quite sure how long it is going to kate, to be honest. 0ne long it is going to kate, to be honest. one more question about emmanuel macron. he said, an brexit, he's going to be pretty tough. he is very much a pro—european, he is absolutely behind the european project and how tough do think he is going to be on the united kingdom when it comes to the brexit negotiations because france and germany are the crucial nations in the eu? he is quite remarkably pro—european and he speaks in a language, one that is almost forgotten, because of the kind of problems at the last four years and the apologetic tone that has crept into politicians way of speaking about the european union, even pro—european politicians here in france and germa

the fbi has beenin showboat, a grandstand. the fbi has been in turmoil. everybody knows that. you take a look at the fbi a year ago, it was in virtual turmoil less tha n year ago, it was in virtual turmoil less than a year ago. it hasn't recovered from that. on monday you left with the deputy attorney general. did you ask for a recommendation? what i did was i was going to fire james comey. my decision. you made the decision already? i was going to fire james comey. he always maintained james comey. he always maintained james comey lost the confidence of his staff, it is another damaging move the man who has taken over the fbi has denied the senators that was the case. i hold james comey in the highest regard and i have the highest regard and i have the highest respect for his abilities and his integrity and it has been the greatest privilege and honour of my professional life to work with him. ican my professional life to work with him. i can tell you all so that director comey enjoyed broad support within the fbi and still does to this day. our washington correspondent expla

sarah corker has the latest. mounting diplomatic pressure has not stopped north korea accelerating its weapons programme. pyongyang has launched two failed missile tests in the last two weeks, the latest on saturday. and in a wide ranging interview on us television, president donald trump stepped up the rhetoric. if it does a nuclear test, iwill stepped up the rhetoric. if it does a nuclear test, i will not be happy. and they can tell you also, i don't believe that the president of china, who is a very respected man, will be happy. do you mean military action? i don't know. we will see. but he also warned of the consequences of conflict. massive warfare, with millions, potentially millions of people being killed... and a reminder of america's military might, the arrival of uss carl vinson off north korea this weekend. tensions have intensified, with zero and south korea conducting military exercises. and when asked about the young leader, donald trump questioned this sanity, but also had the surprising words of p

it has been declared a major national incident. hugh pym has this report.e serious disruption in some parts of the nhs today, with signs warning of long delays, and some surgeries having to remain empty. all this the result of the biggest cyber attack in the history of the nhs. some surgeons, in the history of the nhs. some surgeons, like tom, were told their operations had been postponed. surgeons, like tom, were told their operations had been postponedm surgeons, like tom, were told their operations had been postponed. it is inconvenient. a frustrating. this for me to locations. the nurses have been fabulous, and the doctors. —— fought my fellow patients. it is a terrible crime, because it is putting lives at risk. this man was also told his operation would not happen today. they helped me, because i was happen today. they helped me, because i was nervous happen today. they helped me, because i was nervous about it, so i had to go through it again. not in a normal way. they were doing all the paperwork on paper, and their systems were down, because of thi

it has been a torrid time for labour. the party has lost more than 160 seats.gow, where labour has been in powerfor more than 30 yea rs, has been in powerfor more than 30 years, it has now lost overall control. these are counties which are tory strongholds, it was going to bea are tory strongholds, it was going to be a tough night for labour anyway. and we have in the middle of anyway. and we have in the middle of a general election campaign. people voting largely on local issues, not necessarily national ones. but what is coming across is that where people predicted we were going to be wiped out, in places like wales, we have done very well. the lib dems admit so far, it has been a mixed set of results for the. we have held out set of results for the. we have held our ground set of results for the. we have held ourground in the set of results for the. we have held our ground in the face of a massive shift, an enormous shift of ukip photos to the conservatives. given that that has happened, we have done well to stay where we are. the green party says, with the

of course, some has involved the u.n., some has not.ely that is the kind of world we want, rather than one where we hope somehow the countries that have nuclear weapons won't use them or that the united states can threaten to blow countries off the face of the world. so the liberal international order is inevitable because the alternative is unthinkable. [ applause ] >> neil, you are up with your second rebuttal. >> i want to talk about history now. you see, what troubles me most about fareed's argument is that we've heard something very similar before. if you go back to the late 19th century, though a great many people who believed that a new international order could be based on what we now call globalization, the idea of an international liberal order was there before the first world war. at a time when the forces that we've seen in our time were extraordinarily powerfully at work. in the period of the late 19th century, international migration reached levels that we have now begun to see again in our time. the percentage of the u.s.

has been slowing in china.re is not as much our ring and rising debt, and there has been more and more restructuring. issuing, giving china a push, saying we are watching this problem, and maybe this is a warning to say, make sure you are addressing this. a small downgrade now, but something china has to address to stay on track for the future. haidi: right, let's move onto the previous story, which is top meeting of personalities in the central bank space in tokyo today. governor kuroda did not adjust the boj's goal to hit 2% within the time they wanted, but he talked about how hard it is to shift inflation expectations, as did ben bernanke. it is animal spirits, being able to shake this off after some years of deflationary expectation. was defendinge the bank of japan more or less. he said it is vital for the boj to pursue its target. higherve to get an inflation rate. he said restoring the 2% target would restore stability. is stillledge the boj some distance from achieving its price target. thatso acknowled

a man has been arrested.he author i will be speaking to the author david baldacci about his latest novel, fur fix. hello and welcome to our look at what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow, a lot of one particular story, tim stanley, columnist at the daily telegraph, joins me with benedicte paviot, uk correspondent at france 24. the financial times headlines emmanuel macron's win in the french presidential election saying his win is a phenomenal achievement. the metro calls him big mac after he took over 65% of the vote in the second round. the guardian says mr macron must now reunite it if fans after the far right marine le pen received over 11 million votes. the times receives that emmanuel macron received a landslide victory as fans elect its youngest leaders and is napoleon. the telegraph warns that the election of the europhile could have an effect on brexit negotiations with the european union. and the daily mail leads with an exclusive in which it says that loyalty with an insurer can cost families

that process has now begun.ocess. on balance, the committeejudges orderly brexit process. on balance, the committee judges that consumption growth will be slower in the near term than previously anticipated, before recovering in the latter part of the forecast is real incomes picked up. in the mpc‘s central forecast, quarterly growth is expected to stabilise around its current rate, resulting in growth of 1.9% in 20 is unseen, and around 1.75% in each of the next two years. this is broadly the committee had expected in february. the global outlook has improved since february, with stronger business surveys and generally better financial conditions. indicators including trade growth and capital goods orders suggest broad—based strength. signs of a more robust global demand have also been reflected in global asset prices, with equity prices rising further in recent months. the mpc‘s projection for world growth remains near the top of the range of external forecasters. the combination of a stronger global outlook a

e manus: the fed has to come up with an exit strategy. the ecb has been battered.d it is too early to talk about it, but should they talk about it in september? >> well, it will really depend on what inventories are doing at the time of the next meeting and whether they need to unwind the cuts. the exit strategy has a couple moving parts. some people think there will be a bigger response, particularly the u.s. not a view we share, but that is fine. there is a question about if these cuts -- the last nine months -- it is taking them too much. manus: i know vonnie is in a hurry. one last question. every time we get $50, oh, shale. you have a different proposition. put it to the markets. >> effectively, the issue of shale oil is it is never going to be the long-term solution. it is ahink about it, short drive resource fit in the u.s. right now, crude production is 9.2. to stay there year from now they have to come up with 1.7 of new supplies. that is how much you will lose from existing wells. in the next few years we get more growth in the u.s. and then it peters out

he has re-stoked cultural wars around immigration, but really has not delivered. october 22, he outlined a 10 point plan of 10 things economically related to do during the first 100 days. nine of them he did not even sent to congress, let alone get done. third, personnel. personnel matters when you are president. there has never been a modern president who has done less to staff his government in the first 100 days. that will have consequences if there is some crisis. as crazy and tumultuous as the 100 days have been, he has been fortunate, spared a major foreign or domestic crisis. when something like that happens, he is going to find nobody home in a lot of these agencies. >> good morning, everybody. i want to start by thanking my friend bob for the invitation. hard to say no, so here i am. three quick points that there when you look at the first 100 days and similarities between previous administrations. for us, the bush presidency, when we came in in 2001, there were a lot of people who questioned his legitimacy, a lot of democrats who were upset -- hey, we wo

that has been popular in some parts.35 hour work week, emmanuel macron wants flexibility on that but says any overtime pay will be exempt from tax. i thought that was an interesting aspect of it. marine le pen simply says she will keep it. one place being closely watched this election is the town of troyes. emmanuel macron and marine le pen were separated by less than a percent in the first round. francois fillon won the vote here, but with him out of the picture it could go either way. the bbc‘s thomas fessy is there. we spoke with him earlier. here we are in the north—west of france in an area famous for it champagne but also for textile industry. famous brands like lacoste come from here. this is a conservative stronghold but marine le pen has come first in the first round in the whole of the region, with the regional score of 30.3%, which gives you a bit of an idea what may happen on sunday. she clearly has a strong lead in this region. how are people bad feeling about the debate on the run—off, the second—round of t

but he has said it to us.o noticed salman abedi first, to find out more information? i don't have any information, i don't need any information, because i am not responsible, when he passes the responsibility on to the counterterrorist police, who of course, as we all know, have been carrying out surveillance on the suspect. so it's not my responsibility anymore. it has been shifted to the police and to the security services. counterterrorism investigators will not comment if any warnings were sent, if salman abedi could have been stopped from taking 22 lives. ed thomas, bbc news, manchester. there have been further revelations in the united states about the alleged involvement of president trump's son—in—law, jared kushner, in secret dealings with russia. the new york times and the washington post are reporting that mr kushner discussed establishing a secure communications channel between the trump transition team and mosocow. the fbi is currently conducting a wide ranging inquiry into russia's attempts to sw

he has had some health problems, correct? that is correct. he has not been healthy. came over to ta ke his sister, who wrote the song, came over to take part in the first few rehearsals here to replace him on stage. but he turned everything around when he came. he is a popular winner. this is the first victory for portugal in eurovision in 49 attempts. portugal held the record for not winning this contest and appearing in it so many times. but thatis appearing in it so many times. but that is all history now and next yea r‘s that is all history now and next year's eurovision song contest will be held in portugal. can you tell us what the reaction of salvador sobral was? when he found out he had one? —— won? was? when he found out he had one? -- won? he could not believe it. he just could not believe it. i think it will take a while for it to sink in that he is the king of eurovision today. so many people like to criticise the eurovision song contest but i will say one thing, when you spend an evening here watching fans and journalists from across europe reporting on

the hospital has said that lest questions unanswered. it still has 1 cent.t take the decision to call the police lightly. they know it will cause distress to the families and they are supporting the pa rents of families and they are supporting the parents of the babies concerned. one extra thing we have learned in the last few minutes. one of the families connected to this has said through its law firm has said the death of any child is a tragedy, but the death whether our unexplained issuesis the death whether our unexplained issues is even worse and they say they are hoping for answers from this police investigation. judith moritz, thank you. tributes are being paid to the former labour first minister of wales, rhodri morgan, who's died at the age of 77. he's widely credited with bringing stability to the welsh assembly shortly after it was created in 1999. our wales correspondent sian lloyd reports rhodri morgan was a towering political figure rhodri morgan was a towering politicalfigure in rhodri morgan was a towering political figure in wales, rhodri mo

user growth has been too small, revenue has been too small, and while snapchat is still very popularre hasn't been an increasing engagement that perhaps investors would have wanted. indeed, on an earnings call after results were published, one investor asked the chief executive whether there were new products coming which could give investors cause for hope. he didn't have too many bright ideas. he also said he wasn't worried by facebook, but on the evidence of these results, he probably should be. colinjacobs is managing director of immediate future, an independent social media consultancy. let's start with the immediate concern that people seem to have about snapchat, and this is this competition from facebook, whether it really is a sustainable model as it really is a sustainable model as it is, and can sustain interest. facebook are not going to go anywhere, they are thriving at the moment, the numbers you havejust read out underlined that. it is quite an interesting position he ta kes, quite an interesting position he takes, when facebook lies a company as it tried to do with sn

now he has such conversations everyday. his calendar in the coming weeks and months, he's going to have a very heavy schedule. i promise you that will leave to event more foreign policy. >> what about the extra latitude he seem to be giving to the pentagon. it seem like the defense department has wider latitude to wars in iraq and afghanistan especially with the ab.h moab for people concerned about the pentagon. is that something to be concerned about? you mean byure what extra latitude. we don't have the expeditionary forces in iraq or afghanistan at the moment. very talking about moderate presence. forces.d have those they bolster confidence and in localities in the relationship of the united states. it's essentialal good thing. latitude, april 17, 1961, john f. kennedy conducted the invasion. that for this foreign policy success? theow are you looking at first 100 days? especially when it comes to the house's relationship or hands off approach to the pentagon? trying to avoid it. think many of us were shocked about what

but then it has to be paid back.o the brexit and to what negotiation the government will have, will do in terms of leaving europe. and obviously the inflation is rising, as we saw yesterday, driven by the devaluation of the pound. on the other hand, experts have also been propelled by the devaluation of the pound. in my view, this is lloyds‘ view for the foreseeable 12 month, we think the economy is going to continue to grow. in other news, european and american officials are meeting to discuss a potential extension of the laptop ban on planes. in march, the trump administration imposed new restrictions that stops passengers travelling to the us from eight mainly muslim countries from carrying electronic devices larger than a mobile phone in their hand luggage. the original restrictions affected many of the gulf carriers including emirates, etihad and qatar airways but now there are reports suggesting that the ban could be extended to include some countries within the eu. twitter co—founder biz stone says he will rej

has? pm abe: [translated] between japan and the united states, i believe that economic cooperation can be developed and expanded. we will be able to build a win-win relationship. i am convinced of this. between president trump and i, myself, before the inauguration, -- that is to say, last year -- and after the inauguration on the 10th of february, we have had the summit meeting. and on those occasions, i have explained to him on the current status of japan-u.s. trade. for the automotive industry, for example, in the past there was a criticism of japan that we are making torrential exports to the united states. there was the so-called u.s.-japan trade friction, but right now, japanese companies have built factories in the united states and that have ensured many jobs in the united states and contributing wealth to the u.s. economy. and further, and with the currency fluctuation, we have never made to expand ourselves by trying to sell it cheaply. so between japan and united states, looking

but that physical barrier has now been removed. somebody canjust barrier has now been removed. can happen is that that accrue to process ca n happen is that that accrue to process can happen. it is the optimal method of recruitment. how to counter the propaganda? has sophisticated doesn't need to be? we need to play isis at their own game. they are real masters on how to use social media and social media content. it's not just social media and social media content. it's notjust about shutting down. we have seen the giant, social media giants like twitter shutting down hundreds of thousands of extremist accounts. it's not just thousands of extremist accounts. it's notjust that. we need to provide counter narratives in the form of social media and social media content in order to rebut their claims and arguments. it's important that that counter narrative is there, so that we can win this battle. thank you very much for your time. the weather now with helen. another hot day, hotter than yesterday, about 1 degrees another hot day, hotter than yesterday, about! degrees higher than

there has been a shooting. a severe gunshot wound. president kennedy has been assassinated. it's official now. the president is dead. finally the main story again. the new french president emmanuel macron has told russian leader vladimir putin any use of chemical weapons by the assad regime, which russia backs, will promote immediate retaliation from france. the first meeting at the palace of versailles was described as frosty and the talks as frank. much more on all of that and any other news on the bbc website. and you can get in touch with me and most of the team on twitter, i'm @bbcmikeembley. thank you for watching. hello there. good morning. well, the bank holiday's over. it did actually end on a bit of a wet note for some northern and eastern parts of of england in particular. some wetter weather too in some parts of scotland but a lot of that has been moving away out into the north sea, so for the eastern side of england, still a lot of low cloud first thing but very little rain to speak of. scattered s

after brexit, mr macron has vowed to tear up brexit, mr macron has vowed to tear up an agreement wheref migrants making their way to dover each year. he has talked about tempting banks and businesses from the city of london this side of the channel. but domestic discontent, not press kit, will be his main focus. it is what drew one in three voters to marine le pen, his far right rival —— not brexit. she is popular here in the pool halls of calais where unemployed youngsters while frustrated days away. in struggling towns like this, there is little faith in elite educated metropolitans faith in elite educated metropolita ns emmanuel macron. faith in elite educated metropolitans emmanuel macron. young people vote for marine le pen because they can't find anyjobs. the unemployment rate is sky—high here in calais unfortunately. translation: there are no jobs and too many migrants. he said almost 60% of calais thudded marine le pen and maybe next time the whole country will be ready. —— voted for marine le pen. that evening in paris there were small but demonstrations against emmanuel macro

but he has said it to us. imam who noticed salman abedi first, to find out more information? i don't have any information, i don't need any information, because i am not responsible. when he passes the responsibility on to the counterterrorist police, who of course, as we all know, have been carrying out surveillance on the suspect. so it's not my responsibility anymore. it has been shifted to the police and to the security services. counterterrorism investigators will not comment if any warnings were sent, if salman abedi could have been stopped from taking 22 lives. ed thomas, bbc news, manchester. let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news: don't die, stay alive — that is one of a number of frantic messages received before the sewol ferry sank off the coast of south korea in 2014, killing 30a people. the text messages are among data recovered from at least two mobile phones salvaged from the wreck, and are providing investigators an insight into the victims‘ final moments. most of those

the dollar has weakened.hat—about—ery in this debate and certainly supporters of trump and indeed trump himself believe that hillary clinton got away with dodgy dealings when she was secretary of state. why shouldn't he? it informs this primitive debate, and really the only losers are the american people. you talk about primitive debate, it is interesting that lindsey graham who is regarded as one of the more erudite senators and often a critic of donald trump, observed that a lot of us here are quite glad he is leaving for a few days. he may be leaving washington and they may have got a bit of a breather. there was a wonderful photograph of mike pence. the vice president. taken on the white house lawn, taken on a long lens. his face is inscrutable, the nearest thing to a little smile that mike pence has given. kind of like this... as donald trump took off. he has landed as far as saudi arabia is concerned and he's on the rest of the week, an eight—day tour. his first tour around the world. what is important

tim hague has more.of the williams, and while she‘s not the player she used to be, the class remains. the player ten years the senior of the britain was off at her best, winning the first set 6—1. time for a pep talk... 0k, come on! the words of wisdom works. johanna konta was a different player in the second set and dictated the tempo of the match. it was the first set but williams dropped in all of the tournament before things heated up. then, the american called things dramatically. back to herform in american called things dramatically. back to her form in the first, she was too good forjohanna konta. illustrated by the match—winning point. 6—1 to williams, the player in blue today. tim hague, bbc news. that‘s all sport for now. i‘ll have more in sportsday at 6.30. more now on the election campaign. ina week in a week of manifesto launches, we are asking you to send in questions for special guests. it‘s called ask this. today it‘s the turn of the conservatives on the day they launched their manifesto

trump: what has happened with the ron has brought many of it -- with iran has brought many parts towards israel. if there is a benefit, that would be the benefit, because i have seen such a different feeling towards israel from countries that, as you know, were not feeling so well about israel not so long ago. ramy: so donald trump talking about trying to be in solidarity with the united states as well as with israel, trying to push back against iran. he also noted that other arab countries are in collaboration or are corroborating or thinking at least that this is something that should happen. solomon said he would love to see peace between israel and the palestinians. benjamin netanyahu also waited. >> the arab leaders who you met yesterday could help change the atmosphere, and they can help create the conditions for a realistic piece. ramy: so looking ahead, donald trump also meets with prime minister -- excuse me, palestinian authority president mahmoud abbas, where he is excepted to talk about the big vision for mideast peace. yvonne. yvonne: yeah, i cannot help but wonder, i saw th

he has to take his politics to the next level. he has no party.s nobody from his party at in france.assembly he has to change that. he will either change that by bringing people in over the next four or five weeks or else by going out and winning on the doorstep. that's the difficult bit. the easy bit, at least in france, sadly as you know not quite as true in america, there that theition president as prime minister should be getting some kind of starting point. if he put forward a whole series of changes and really rammed it through, he would need a lot of luck and a huge amount of drive and, at some point, this stuff about protecting everybody. work.annot you cannot give young french people jobs. the old people will hang onto their jobs, despite woeful underperformance. you can't talk about changing the ste while putting up with a state that occupies over half of the economy. david: looking ahead here, we saw the felicitations coming in last night after the results were counted. looking ahead to an election in germany. what does this election po

manchester united's four premier league season has not stopped the club. it has not won since 2013.as risen to 3.1 billion euros. pmg surveyed 32 clubs. that is your bloomberg business flash. chelsea just making it in the top 12. let's talk about the pound. slumped against all its g10 peers. the conservative party may lose its majority. conservative government may lose as many as 20 seats. the opposition labor party could gain as many as 28. the pound falls, this is the bloomberg pound index. it has been a tough road. week volatility is rising. this is a much controversial pole. westpac would say the market is not prepared for any possible outcome. ooh-pooing thisp poll. onategists wrote it is based a unsafe policy. this is causing quite a stir. guest: we know it is much closer than people thought a month ago. it is looking as though conservative leaders are, that creates uncertainty and if you get people saying that could be a hung parliament, i would have thought we go straight to 120 if we do end up with a hung parliament back to the worst brexit type fears that we saw a few mont

he had to, he has had a very ad hoc life, he has had to create his role as he has gone along.t is highly improbable if you a basic traditional prince of wales you would spend a lot of time unveiling plaques, unveiling statues. and maybe being a playboy. the fact that he has created a substantive job that stretches all the way from kabul to sierra leone to the galapagos to jamaica where he is trying to build model towns, these kinds of things are improbable. when he was growing up he was close to anne, who was two years younger and they were a dynamic duo and she got married and they went off in different directions. also his two younger siblings, one is 12 years younger and one is 16 years younger so they are almost like two separate families. he has never been terribly close to either of his younger brothers partly because of the age gap and partly because he is in a separate category as the prince of wales. he is the heir to the throne, he is the duke of cornwall and he has access to this vast fortune that was set up in the 14th century for the heir to the throne so it is wo

ha-ha. >> ha-ha-ha. thank you, jack. >> we'll get to that later on in "the skinny." i'll be recovered by then. >> or fired. >> one of those. let's begin though this half-hour, the surprise announcement from the justice department naming special prosecutor to lead the investigation into russian interference in the election. >> former fbi director, robert mueller at the helm of the investigation. empowered to press criminal charges as he looks into the nute warning abut the a 30 o >> the call to appoint an outside prosecutor was made by deputy attorney general, rod rosenstein on capitol hill today briefing the senate on the firing of fbi director james comby. abc's pierre thomas has the the latest. >> reporter: a bombshell announcement. the department of justice appointing a special counsel to take over the investigation into russia's interference with the 2016 election. including possible collusion with the trump campaign. the man now leading the investigation, former fbi director, robert mueller. he will have all the authorities of a u.s. attorney including ability t

he has not done that. she has been a steadfast defender of those sanctions and says they cannot be taken away until russia delivers more pressure on the rebels in ukraine. she has already met trump. putin has not. we are told he may be curious to get her take on matters. host: we have been told the u.s. president now has a weekly phone call with the german chancellor. maybe some progress there. you are watching dw news live from berlin. still to come, hope for young soccer players in myanmar as the country opens new academies to train the stars of tomorrow. that plus world news in 60 seconds. >> what do you think? what do you get for $.50? >> $.50? >> not a lot. >> did you know it costs $.50 to feed one hungry child for one full day? >> i did not. >> incredible. >> with the share the meal app, you can share your meal with children in need with just a tap of your smart. smartphone users outnumber hungry children 20-1. imagine the impact you and your friends could have. together, we can and global hunger. pl

now he has such conversations everyday. his calendar in the coming weeks and months, he's going to have a very heavy schedule. i promise you that will leave to event more foreign policy. >> what about the extra latitude he seem to be giving to the pentagon. it seem like the defense department has wider latitude to wars in iraq and afghanistan especially with the ab.h moab for people concerned about the pentagon. is that something to be concerned about? you mean byure what extra latitude. we don't have the expeditionary forces in iraq or afghanistan at the moment. very talking about moderate presence. forces.d have those they bolster confidence and in localities in the relationship of the united states. it's essentialal good thing. latitude, april 17, 1961, john f. kennedy conducted the invasion. that for this foreign policy success? theow are you looking at first 100 days? especially when it comes to the house's relationship or hands off approach to the pentagon? trying to avoid it. think many of us were shocked about what

we know he has been against nearly every british intervention there has been.ions about the falklands and his support in the past for the ira. there are real questions aboutjeremy past for the ira. there are real questions about jeremy corbyn past for the ira. there are real questions aboutjeremy corbyn and how far he would go to protect britain. he has an argument that resonates with a lot of voters which is that intervention does not increase our security. particularly younger voters. i think there is not only a generational divide, there is also a geographical divide. a lot of the labour in peace i speak to, particularly in the heartlands in yorkshire and humber, south wales, in the north—east, they will say that the voters like trident and the like britain being a strong country. that is difficult for the labour party to square. their defence spokesman is shone on this and says that we will keep trident and renew it and be part of nato, but this distance between what members of the party state and what jeremy corbyn believes in is very difficult for the par

he has a -- has a sophistte national security team. white house there appears to be a conspiracy to delegitimize this president and bring him down. i have never seen anything quite like it in my adult life. lou: you are talking about forces within the white house contending with each other for the tour that has been constitutionally granted the president of the united states, donald trump, and without the establishment, the deep state contending with all the forces whoever they may be within the white house. but certainly the president for the power thate is again bestowed by the force of our constitutional political system. jack: i'm not going so far to say it's within the white house. lou: where do the leaks come from jack: they believe the leak about the discussion with lavrov and the foreign ambassador came from the nsa. there were initial leaks who came from people who worked for the nsc, national security council and they were virtually holdovers. people in our i will tell joneses services are opposed to the president and hopeful

it has dogged the stock, it has recovered a little bit, but has the positive's gun shy. -- depositorsun shy. erik: and with a good reason. ,.5 million accounts identified potentially 1.5 million more discussed as part of a lawsuit. part of the settlement the bank is negotiating. what is the impact? wells fargo lost consumer customers. they are doing less business with some of their commercial customers as well, who were turned off by the fact that they didn't have the appropriate standards in place. they will not do municipal bond issues with wells fargo. they are taking a wait and see approach. how are the changes that they put in place, reorganizing the company, eliminating sales incentives, firing some of the executives, setting a new minimum wage, among other things , what kind of impact on a having on the way the company behaves? little by little, the consumers are coming back. well below the point it was at in september before the scandal broke. while tim sloan would not put a target on the amount of time it would take to recover, he did say that he wanted to do a good job of pr

one person said he has never held office. he doesn't have a party. he has a movement. so how will he bring these people on board? of course the mayor of this town is front and national. there are the 12 in the country, or 12 national, so people here are proud to have that support, but it will be extremely difficult now for him to try and bring everyone together united france. that's why we had a call here to the patriots from marine la pen. she basically said in that speech, she talked about the rift between patriots and liberals, but also the identity of france is at steak. >> isa, thank you so much. so the president-elect macron with a very big job ahead of co lessing people there. let's go to international correspondent. he is joining us from a cafe in paris. what are people saying right there to you? what are their biggest concerns? are they happy with the outcome? >> good to be joining fruyou fra cafe in central paris. i want to introduce you to the owner of the cafe where we are here. he's been listening to your program the last 30 minutes or so and looking at th

the entire thing has been a witch hunt. there is no collusion between certainly myself and my campaign, but i can only speak for myself and the russians, zero. i think it divides the country. i think we have a very divided country because of that and many other things. did you at any time urge former fbi directorjames comey to close or back down the investigation into michael flynn? no. . . no. next question. the major development of the last 2a hours is the appointment of robert mueller to oversee the russian investigation. he's a man renowned for his independence, having been appointed fbi director by george w bush, and being asked to serve on longer than his term by barack obama. and his appointment has received support from many on both sides of the aisle. probably the best thing that has happened is that the deputy attorney general did appoint bob mueller, a man of impeccable integrity, to act as special counsel in this issue. and that, i think, is of some comfort to all of us in this country. i believe that the profes

our washington correspondent laura bicker has the latest. he has become more famous than me.ald trump may have once embraced the fbi director, but the low was short lived. it is thought the president's frustration had been building for months. he had hoped allegations that russia had meddled in the us election to help him win could be dismissed as fake news. but the towering figure of the fbi kept the towering figure of the fbi kept the story alive by confirming the investigation, and that is why democrats think mr trump fired him. he feels the dragnet tightening on the russian investigation. i believe thatis the russian investigation. i believe that is why he has let james comey go. and he has made it clear what he thinks should happen now. we need an independent special prosecutor. there has to be an independent special prosecutor. if we are going to get to the bottom of it we need an independent special prosecutor. but the chances are that are slim to none. mr comey was hired to restore faith in the fbi. the fbi director has no great ability. and the majority of republican

he has won the presidency. now he has to win over the french people. and the clock is ticking.here is all-important parliamentary elections next month. he needs a majority in parliament, he needs a credible government to bring around all of those reforms he promised so many people. if he doesn't get the majority. and he needs to form a coalition. will he jump into bed with one of the traditional parties that he stepped away from? if he does make a coalition with them, he made be giving up his reformist credentials right from the start. paris, thankler in you very much indeed. you are watching "bbc world news america." candidates in south korea's presidential election are making their final appeal to voters before tuesday. polls suggest that the left-leaning moon jae-in has maintained his lead over his nearest rival. the elections are held early to fill the vacancy of park geun-hye impeached in march over corruption. thousands of venezuelans taking to the streets, starting another week of march is in purpose of president nicolas maduro's call for a new assembly from which oppone

very different in tone from the remarks he has seen so farfrom president tone from the remarks he hasnt trump's speech. he is saying that we should not expect too much, we're not here to tell people how to live their lives, who to be or who to worship. here we are, there is the president, accompanied by think by the king. and onto the platform where he is going to be making his address from, to those leaders who have travelled to those leaders who have travelled to riyadh. we are expecting the president too, of course, be introduced to the audience before he begins to speak with his message. he believes in reconciliation. critics will doubtless accuse him of some bad faith in terms of his treatment towards the muslim world, you will remember the plan to impose restrictions on travel, fairly dramatically introduced, right at the start of mr trump's administration this year, that was challenged in the courts and had to be withdrawn and then reissued in an amended form, although as lyse was suggesting, many in the arab world seem prepared to ignore that and concentrate on other issues, s
