10:30 pm
hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment — first, the headlines. most of the nhs trusts affected by yesterday's global cyber—attack have managed to restore their systems. the prime minister said the government is "working with all organisations concerned" to resolve the issue. labour leaderjeremy corbyn has denied that senior members of his party are already admitting defeat in the general election. he was responding to a question about comments made by his deputy who said the party had a "mountain to climb". us president donald trump says he could announce a new fbi director to replace james comey by late next week. 11 people are reportedly being considered for the position. hundreds of thousands of people have joined the pope as he canonised two shepherd children at the fatima shrine complex in portugal. it is 100 years since the two said
10:31 pm
the virgin mary had appeared to them. the latest alien film, directed by ridley scott. it has had some mixed reviews. find out what mark kermode made of it in. —— made of it in the film review. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are anne ashworth, who's the associate editor at the times, and bonnie greer, playwright and writer for the new european. let's take a look at the front pages then. the telegraph leads with friday's cyber attack that hit 48 nhs trusts. it says thousands of operations and appointments will be cancelled, as staff brace themselves for more problems as they attempt to log on to work computers on monday mornings. the observer leads on the election campaign.
10:32 pm
it says a multi—millionaire city worker has pledged to fund a campaign to try to oust almost 140 pro—remain mps to ensure there is no "backsliding on brexit", as he puts it, after the election. the sunday times leads with theresa may's pledge to change the law to help councils and housing associations build hundreds of thousands of new homes. it also carries a picture of the singer harry styles, who says brexit is the wrong direction for the country. the daily express says theresa may is on course to win a record number of seats — 398, giving her a majority of 147. can wejust can we just clarify, before anybody gets cross with me, that my reprimand was out of love? 0h, gets cross with me, that my reprimand was out of love? oh, i didn't even... i was actually
10:33 pm
fidgeting, so it was absolutely correct! the daily mail, this huge cyber attack yesterday, now, you we re cyber attack yesterday, now, you were just saying before we came on air, it looks as if they were already on to this story? yes, this has hit the nhs, and also organisations and companies worldwide. it looks as though there we re lots of worldwide. it looks as though there were lots of ransom demands at trusts last year. it is not clear whether any money was paid out. we know that one californian health business did pay out when its systems were attacked in this way. but this story is getting bigger by the moment, because it seems as though there was a failure to do anything about it in a timely fashion. and the briefings which
10:34 pm
fascinate me, one, no—one brings up the fact that theresa may was home secretary, she has been home secretary, she has been home secretary since 2010, herjob is cyber security. now, in secretary since 2010, herjob is cybersecurity. now, in the secretary since 2010, herjob is cyber security. now, in the real world, this would get her to stand up world, this would get her to stand up and admit that she was the chief, she was in charge when this happened, it is as though she has had nothing to do with this at all, her hands are completely clean. in the old days, it was a resigning issue. but nobody has come up and said, this person was in charge of this. that's important. the second thing, is that what we also don't talk about, than the nhs is probably number two, maybe number three, biggest organisation on earth. this isa biggest organisation on earth. this is a massive, massive failure. and for people to be running around clutching their pearls and saying, this person... no, this is something
10:35 pm
somebody needs to stand up to and ta ke somebody needs to stand up to and take personal responsibility. the decision to cancel the contract to patch up the systems, that seems strange, because it seems there were fio strange, because it seems there were no plans to replace this particular software, and... once it stops being supported. so, but is something we need to have clarified. but i still wa nt to need to have clarified. but i still want to say, this is an election cycle, the person who wants to be the prime minister was responsible for our cyber security, she should say something about it in that capacity. that's what she should do. also, the prime minister chose amber rudd and she kept on the person who is running the nhs as well. she is responsible to us, we need to hear from her. it is the most extraordinary story, that this by found the domain name which controlled all of this installed in
10:36 pm
the system by the hackers, so that they could stop the hacking. amazing that they found it. it is barely believable. again, that's why theresa may needs to say something to us. let's look at the sunday times on this story. it is therefore you onjuju, if you want times on this story. it is therefore you on juju, if you want to learn how to develop one somewhere. this is the kind of video which youtube can get into bother about, isn't it? if the sunday times can find it, why could you chew not find it? ? presumably quite easily. with a leak toa presumably quite easily. with a leak to a site where it can be bought for $20. there is an old mathematical axioms which says that no system can be both consistent and complete. so, the minute that you make something like this, there is the key to
10:37 pm
breaking it down. i have to go back to theresa may... no, it is important! you have to be vigilant, there has to be vigilant. it is not possible to catch up with all of this. but won't she say that the nhs has many, many it specialists who are employed entirely to make sure that this system is secure, not her as the home secretary? ultimately, somebody needed to report to somebody. we need to find out where the buck stopped, and instead of keystone cops running around sort of thing, where does the buck stop? this is able to lives involved. —— this is people's lives involved. this is able to lives involved. —— this is people's lives involvedlj know this is people's lives involved.” know this is a massive story but i wa nt to know this is a massive story but i want to move on. the sunday telegraph, tories, don't ditch a
10:38 pm
little bit! that have been comparisons made between theresa may and margaret thatcher, but this is suggesting that theresa may is moving too far away from a little bit‘s economic principles... i know you won't agree! i don't, actually, i don't even understand what that is! ithink i don't even understand what that is! i think this isjust i don't even understand what that is! i think this is just the sunday telegraph being a thatcherite paper, to be honest. but it is interesting, there is a battle for the soul of what it is to be a tory, is it to be a free marketeer or is it to be a person who intervenes like with the energy cap come in the free market? and capping executive pay as well. so, i would and capping executive pay as well. so, iwould have and capping executive pay as well. so, i would have liked to have read more about this story. there has been a battle since 2010, when david cameron decided the tory party was going to be a bit of this, a bit of that, a little bit of that. i think what the sunday telegraph is doing is to remind the conservative party
10:39 pm
that there are core principles and ideas. you can't take labour ideas, which they do at every election, which they do at every election, which is what they are doing now, and graft them into the conservative party. they are asking, what is the conservative party? as they are a asking in america, what is the republican party? i think there is this new breed, the twentysomethings, who are supposed to be going in behind mrs may. so maybe these are the kind of policies which are kind of slightly socialist which are kind of slightly socialist which mrs may feels will appeal to that group of voters, who may never have voted before. but i do think there is a core question being asked, and it's always a question which the conservative party needs to ask, it is probably why brexit is happening and everything else, what exactly a re happening and everything else, what exactly are they, other than a vote winning machine? it works, though. well... we do know it works, but i think the sunday telegraph is asking a core question, what are you? let's
10:40 pm
go back to the sunday times. me pledges council has revolution. well, there you go. finally, housing, rising to the top of the agenda. run it is entirely my fault, i of the agenda. run it is entirely my fault, lam of the agenda. run it is entirely my fault, i am confusing you. just quickly, this prediction that there is going to be a most enormous victory. landslide victory, greater than any other. than any, ever, on earth. we know that we are in a crazy time, emmanuel macron is a black swan, nobody knows where he came from. donald trump, who would have thought it? now, theresa may, landslide? we shouldn't trust
10:41 pm
anything, we don't know. lord ashcroft in the week, similar suggestions. tom watson is very, very frightened of the size of the tory victory, and may not be as great as this but you might be surprised. 40-50 seat smacks. there you go. sunday times, for real this time... may pledges council has revolution to labour voters. time... may pledges council has revolution to labour votersm time... may pledges council has revolution to labour voters. it is extraordinary, the private rented sector is now much, much bigger than council housing. nobody has built any council houses, and mrs may says she's going to vilbrim. and who didn't do that? you see... who sold them off? yes, but also, the conservative party has not done a lot in this direction. they have run the country for the last seven yea rs. the country for the last seven years. suddenly now, they're going to do this. but the labour government didn't build, either, did
10:42 pm
they? they have all been doing it, but the fact is, are we supposed to believe this? let's give 30 seconds toa man believe this? let's give 30 seconds to a man in believe this? let's give 30 seconds toa man ina believe this? let's give 30 seconds to a man in a red suit. harry styles, brexit is the wrong direction. for those not familiar, he was part of one direction. why doesn't he like brexit? he does not think it is our direction in which he would like to be going. but it is very interesting, the new positioning of harry styles with a slight edge, wearing that suit. the manufactured pop star is becoming a manufactured pop star is becoming a man with a voice of his own. it is his generation as well, my caper, the new european, was very happy to hear this from harry styles. he could be on your front page. let's look at the observer. speaking of brexit, millionaire brexit donor, he
10:43 pm
is hosking, he wants no backsliding on brexit. i write about quite a lot of this, and i am not really familiar with this name. and also, how you can really turn people against remain mps in cities like london, where people were largely saying remain. there's always these next luther tykes who emerge... and they come out of the woodwork and say, we have got tonnes of money and we are going to make this happen. i think people are smarter than that. but there has been a move to raise money to make sure that there are pro—remain candidates? money to make sure that there are pro-remain candidates? this is going to be... well, mrs may has called this a brexit election, she said she needs a strong hand. but i think these are just lex luther types.
10:44 pm
these are just lex luther typesm is more about winning over the labour voters. so, that is not how to do the papers, if you're presenting it! thank you so much! fiona, thank you. coming up next, the film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. mark kermode is with us as ever to take us through all this week's releases. so, we have a political thriller starring jessica chastain called miss sloane. alien: covenant, the latest in the ongoing alien franchise. and jawbone, written
