choose their next president, at the weekend. the new york times writes about how some people in poorer suburbs may not even vote, because they don't identify with either candidate — marine le pen or emmanuel macron. the chief executive of the world's largest recruitment firm warns that high levels of youth unemployment around the globe could spark a new wave of unrest. the boss of adecco says youth joblessness helped to spur the 2010 arab spring. that's in the daily telegraph. the philippine star shows president rodrigo duterte on the phone with donald trump. mr trump has invited mr duterte to visit the white house. officials say they also talked about the threat posed by north korea. ‘facebook must pay to police the internet‘. that's also in the daily telegraph, which has a uk parliamentary committee criticising social media firms for how they address offensive online material. the committee looks at fines

for companies that don't censor illegal posts quickly. and it's a case of writer's block in la la land, in the financial times. hollywood is bracing for a possible writers‘ strike, as they seek a new deal with big studios. the last strike, in 2008, cost the california economy an estimated $2.5 billion. so, let's delve into those stories. we have nina with us from the wall streetjournal. let's start with this final week of campaigning in france. there is danger that some people are being turned off by both candidates. which is, i guess, a striking development to see that in the end you could see candidates not making votes with young voters on both sides. we have seen marine le

pen being attractive to many photos but for many years voters in many suburbs, in parisien suburbs that are not doing that well we have seen people saying that they will not vote for her because she will turn the country around. they also say they will not vote for macron because it will be an economic disaster. so they are saying it will be either played or cholera, so they will stay at home. that could be dangerous for both candidates, but mostly for macron. this article looks at the fact that it is the non— white young people in these suburbs in friends who feel so disenfranchised. it was that group that the far left candidate was trying to aim for. what does that mean? what does that mean for voter turnout? it could mean... it depends on the last week of campaigning. we

have seen marine le pen striker coalition with one of the other contenders who dropped out during the first round last week, saying she would make him the prime minister which could lead to more voters heading to her. it is now about who is making what connections for vote rs about who is making what connections for voters to be able to build a bridge. as we saw last week, neither of the two candidates, i think both of the two candidates, i think both of them were in the low 20s, half of france did not vote for either of the two candidates on the ballot last sunday. it remains to be seen who is able to attract what kind of voters. it is interesting because the two got through a knot from established parties. they are outsiders and you would think that outsiders and you would think that outsiders may appeal more to those who have been previously turned off by politics. yes, i would agree with that but it is also interesting to see what both candidates stand for. because macron, in the end although he has created his own party and

stepping away from the socialist government has been creating something that is still based on building a better economy so creating something that is, like, he has been saying he will cut down on bureaucracy and create more innovation. that may not be attractive to people who are disenfranchised. then, of course, with marine le pen being against foreigners and immigration that is also an issue. one of the key elements about this is that young people who do not have work. what that means in terms of what they do about that. those young people. this article in the telegraph talks about rapport coming from the boss of the echo who physically says he saw this trend emerge again, this trend led to the arab arabs bring back in 2010, it could lead to a lot of social unrest. social unrest among young people who feel they have no opportunity. that is true. we do see in the uk, for example, over role

unemployment of 4.7% but with young vote rs unemployment of 4.7% but with young voters and young people lead of 4.4%. that is triple the amount... and it is true of many countries in europe, isn't it? in spain it is higher than 23.5. it is incredible. it is interesting. he is discussing the effects of having a print share programmes and being able to train people much better in a younger age which is then enables them to have a better career. but that seems to be quite an issue in many of these countries. moving on. the paper we don't often feature, the philippines style. president trump, quite significant, president trump inviting the president of the philippines to the white house. some people say this could be seen as a tacit endorsement of the rather hardline approach of detergent.” guess there will be some criticism for guess there will be some criticism foertrump in guess there will be some criticism

for mr trump in reaching out to rodrigo duterte imposing a christian with what he is doing with his legacy. as you mentioned, he is known for extrajudicial —— extradited —— extra judicial killings of drug addicts. with china becoming ever more important, also with rodrigo duterte turning more towards china and saying that the relationship with the uk —— us is broken, i think they needed to get the philippines back on the side of the philippines back on the side of the americans, especially as china is becoming ever more strong in its claims to the south china sea and, of course, an important role that the chinese play with regards to the relationship is north korea. it is a most strategic move rather than an a endorsement of his policy. facebook in the news. this parliamentary committee basically saying that not just facebook but also google and twitter and many other social media

giants are not quick enough to remove offensive material and that kind of thing. they should now have measures in place to make sure these companies do something more quickly. a recommendation by a parliamentary committee and i guess it addresses the questions that have been posed in the past few weeks where we had quite a lot of... well, violence— loaded content on facebook and also the social network were struggling to get off within a reasonable amount of time. this is calling for judges, just because it requires more effort now to police these social networks than it did before. similar levies are in place for nightclubs and for football clubs... why not the web? yes. although it is more difficult to police the internet than it is to police foot ball

internet than it is to police football club. there was a family got a surprise visit. mark zuckerberg, the founder of facebook turned for dinner and thankfully brought it with him. there they are around the table. he had fish, chicken and cannoli should desert. couple of bottles of chardonnay as well. it is part of his tour of 50 states in the us which may indicate there is a political desire. a p pa re ntly there is a political desire. apparently this family asked him about that and he was open about the fa ct about that and he was open about the fact that he had no desire is to get into the white house. the head of the home was interviewed by the bbc world service and he said no, that is not its ambition because he feels he can not get things done quickly in politics whereas he can do things quickly and make them quickly through facebook. the difference between being in business and being in politics in governing. now, what is the problem in hollywood? why is

there a right to strike yet again?l deadline passes tonight at midnight over whether to struggle not and writers are complaining about conditions in the industry and say that, like, there is not enough done in terms of them getting good healthcare, insurance in terms of them getting good healthca re, insurance and in terms of them getting good healthcare, insurance and also having having an issue that shows running short of these days. in the past this has led to quite a strike on the industry with 2.5 billion dollars lost from the california economy in 2008. it could potentially be quite disruptive. bad ending. i see what you did there. that is low. thank you for your time coming there now. enjoy your time coming there now. enjoy your labour day break. and you as well. have a nice day we will see you later. hello there. good morning. we saw some big contrasts across the uk on sunday, but the southern half of the uk has
5:55 am
seen quite a bit of cloud and some rain. this is the view from one of our weather watchers midafternoon on sunday. but at the same time, the northern half of the country, it was pretty different day. dry, bright, a bit breezy as well. this is the view on the shores of the moray firth. and i think we're going to keep similar contrasts through bank holiday monday because you've got this area of low pressure parked across the south of the uk. that'll be a focus for some wetter weather. further north it should be essentially dry but quite breezy, but the breeze at least overnight helping to keep those temperatures up. the temperatures probably at their lowest in western scotland. but here is where we're going to see some of the highest temperatures as we get on into the afternoon. now, we mightjust see one or two early showers in northern england but they'll tend to fade away. generally speaking northern england northwards it's dry, bright and breezy, whereas the southern half of the uk, we've got a lot of cloud, some outbreaks of rain, some showers. they'll be heavy at times i suspect with the odd rumble of thunder. but equally a little bit of sunshine coming and going. not overly warm, though, only 11,
5:56 am
12, maybe 13 degrees. temperature contrast across northern england. north sea coastal areas, only ten or 11 degrees. but on the other side we'll get up to around 1a or 15 in carlisle. could hit 16, 17 in northern parts of northern ireland. 0nly eight degrees in the eastern side of scotland with that breeze coming in from the north sea, but could go as high as 18 in the sunshine on the western side. through the evening, still got some of those showers, potentially heavy and thundery across that central swathe of england. they're working their way ever southwards, eventually clearing away. by dawn on tuesday i think most places will be dry. still a fair bit of low cloud coming into that eastern side of the uk. maybe some mist and fog as well. but temperatures are holding up at seven, eight or nine degrees in major towns and cities. a little bit lower than that in some rural spots. now, through tuesday, as our low pressure system drifts away to the south, it allows a high pressure system in scandinavia to become the driving force of our weather. and that'll be with us for a good few days. an easterly wind on a tuesday drags in a lot of low cloud to the eastern side.
5:57 am
it will be quite cool here as well. further west much brighter skies and we'll see some higher temperatures as well, 15, 16, 17 degrees in a few places. maybe one or two spots of rain to go with that cloud further east. cloudy across the southern half of the uk on wednesday. still that easterly breeze and still quite cool along that eastern coast. head further west, particularly into the north and west and it should be a lovely day in some sunshine and the temperatures should be in the upper teens here. then towards the end of the week, a lot of fine and dry weather to be had. still a little bit cloudy up and down the eastern side, hello. this is breakfast, with ben thompson and rachel burden. "shameful" and a "disgrace." a damning verdict on the failure of big internet companies to effectively tackle illegal and inappropriate content. a committee of mps says facebook, twitter, and google should face harsh fines if material isn't removed quickly enough and pay for police investigations into potentially illegal posts. good morning.
