tv   The Papers  BBC News  September 2, 2018 10:30pm-11:01pm BST

10:30 pm
hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment, first the headlines. the former prime minister, gordon brown, has called for labour to adopt the internationally recognised definition of anti—semitism. he said the party must act now or undermine its values. the prime minister has insisted she will not be pushed into compromises on brexit that are not in the national interest. the eu's chief negotiator, michel barnier, has said he strongly opposes parts of theresa may's chequers plan. hundreds of prison staff have been caught smuggling drugs, weapons and mobile phones into jails in england and wales. the number of staff found taking contraband into prisons has risen by more than 50% in the past six years. video games that allow players to make in—game purchases are to have warnings on their packaging. the icon, which will feature a hand holding a credit card, will be brought in from christmas. and we hearfrom google‘s self—appointed "security princess" who's job is to find the weak points
10:31 pm
before the hackers do, that's in click in 15 minutes. so sorry, i did not realise the michael was open. —— the microphone was open. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are parliamentary journalist tony grew, and the entertainment journalist and broadcaster caroline frost. welcome to you both. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the metro leads on the critcism from the eu brexit negotiator michel barnier of theresa may's chequers plan for brexit, mr barnier describes it as ‘illegal‘ and insane‘. more critcism of the chequers plan leads the telegraph, borisjohnson says the ‘uk is going into battle with the white flag fluttering'. while the i says the prime minister faces a fight
10:32 pm
to keep her brexit plan alive. the guardian leads on the labour anti—semitism row, after speeches from backbencher margaret hodge, and the former prime minister gordon brown. the daily mirror says 600 police stations have been closed since 2010 due to tory austerity. anger at nearly £100 million worth of foreign aid to india leads the express. and, the ft leads on the turmoil on bond markets caused by the financial crisis in argentina. that is probably not on the list strangely. brexit is, of course. the daily telegraph we will start with a picture of boris johnson telegraph we will start with a picture of borisjohnson adjusting his tie. the scandal of brexit is not that we failed but that we have not that we failed but that we have not tried. he thinks we are surrendering. it is a colourful
10:33 pm
piece. we have all sorts of beautiful and colourful metaphors in his spectacular and colourful prose. he is saying it is in though ring with giant haystacks and he is saying preordained and we will be left lying on the canvas, 12 stars circulating symbolically above our unconscious head. i think he is throwing his flag in the ring. he is preparing to go some rounds with theresa may on this and it is sizing up theresa may on this and it is sizing up to bea theresa may on this and it is sizing up to be a continuing battle of the tory party. he gave himself freedom to do that by stepping down as foreign secretary but what is he saying we should have done? that is not entirely clear. he has repeatedly paid £250,000 a year to write a daily column for the daily
10:34 pm
telegraph, so it is not surprising that this lasted over the front page but effectively what they are saying is theresa may's checkers plan which she announced earlier in the summer would allow the uk to continue to alight to eu standards means that the uk is not free from european union and that the uk will not be able to negotiate trade deals which he and other brexiteer say was the real prize of leaving the european union and leave us in a vassal state where we will take instructions and standards from the eu without having any say overthem. standards from the eu without having any say over them. what he is proposing as a canada plus bill, it will effectively... he is complaining basically that theresa may will want to keep that alignment and that she is butchering the brexit ideal and that is why we
10:35 pm
failed because we have not tried in an effect he says that theresa may and are negotiating strategy should not have made that one concession to the soft remain group and the treasury are more concerned about not crashing the economy and given the eu market plays importance, that is why she tried to strike the compromise between the two halves in the two opinions in her cabin and about how we should proceed. which had borisjohnson leaving about how we should proceed. which had boris johnson leaving the government. let's be frank about what it is. this has to be seen in the context of leadership. boris johnson wants to be the next prime ministerand johnson wants to be the next prime minister and succeed theresa may and he thinks he can use the idea of the trail on brexit as a stick to beat her with and ultimately remove her from office over. but that is not so simple. he is much more popular among grassroots than tory mps and ap challenges her in a straight up and down confidence vote, it is likely he will lose. he is trying to
10:36 pm
find how he can best go about seizing the initiative and present himself as the champion of true brexit and use that to take leadership from theresa may. what we have to be careful about here is just as donald trump drew all the press ahead of the us election ahead of 2016 by adopting this extreme position in using such colourful prose, he is doing exactly what he wa nts to prose, he is doing exactly what he wants to do which is draw in the press, wants to do which is draw in the press , we wants to do which is draw in the press, we are talking about it and it is colourful imagery and we have to bear in mind that there are are fa cts to bear in mind that there are are facts and figures. he came up with figures on the bus a while ago and that proved to be untrue and let's hold our power. let's look at the headline, do not necessarily agree with that but the chief brexit negotiator says that theresa may's chequers plan is insane and legal so
10:37 pm
it does not matter in a way what anyone in this country thinks of it because the eu 27 probably do not like them either. she is basically on solo, she has chewbacca, and boris on one side and she is trying to bring them together and the walls are closing in on her. who is chewbacca? i do not know. it is a good point, but theresa may went into these negotiations with a series of red lines that made her room to manoeuvre very series of red lines that made her room to manoeuvre very narrow so she said room to manoeuvre very narrow so she said we will leave the single market for good and the customs union in that red line causes significant problems for the eu and uk and the only land border, will become a border and she has created problems for herself because she effectively
10:38 pm
try to keep the brexiteer as mac happy fight drawing redlines in the negotiations and that led to a situation where she has very little room to manoeuvre and what michel barnier is saying is that she wanted to keep the alignment on good and the eu's response is we have a single market and you are either a memberoryou single market and you are either a member or you are single market and you are either a memberoryou are not single market and you are either a member or you are not and you cannot come in and cherry pick out and say we've like that but we do not want freedom of movement and what michel barnier is suggesting is the only way for to pursue —— preserve free trade is having movement of people. the perception of a lot of negativity and voted for brexit was about freedom of movement and immigration in britain and that meant she had to put down a red line and what he is saying is we can do a deal with you but it has to be a deal with you but it has to be a deal like norway has which means they are members of the single market but they have to allow freedom of movement, people in and out of your way —— norway's. freedom of movement, people in and
10:39 pm
out of your way -- norway's. he says it would be the end of the european project? because it would be, you have 28 countries and they abide by the same rules, single market in the customs union in terms of goods and services in britain tries to come in and take a little bit out of that, then the entire ideal of the european union that everyone acts in the same way falls apart. let's look at the independent in the last brexit story. the great joke after the referendum was that we would need to draft in all whole bunch of lawyers from europe to explain what to do and how to go about it and to process the laws. this thing was so hilarious may prove to be slightly more true than people realise because we are being told that the number of officials leaving, a very specific task and they are walking. whether this is because it is a botched job and they do not know what they are doing or because
10:40 pm
morale is low, and it has really good offers in europe, we do not know. this morning david davis said it is finds on the public friendly state do not and obviously these figures the lie that somewhat. let's move on to the other story, gordon brown, fighting for the soul of labour. here we have the former prime minister urging his party to accept the internationally accepted definition of anti—semitism, to try to stop this route that is really tearing the party apart. there will bea tearing the party apart. there will be a transfer in the weekend to acce pt be a transfer in the weekend to accept whether it is the full definition in the argument from gordon's side is that it will shut down legitimate criticism of israel and whether that is racist. i look
10:41 pm
in that question and no one is asking whether ireland has a right to exist or whether the existence of an elite is racist so i understand why as a jewish person you would feel that is unnecessary and hurtful and if you are being pulled into a broader area, which is criticism of israel so to see that he spoke with that passion, on a good day he is one of the most compelling speakers you would ever see in to see him intervene at this moment to try and solve this crisis that the party finds itself in is deeply affecting but the problem with that is that jeremy corbyn's supporters on that side probably do not listen because ironically they think he supports tony blair. we see other mps leaving the party and john mcdonald is worried that there could bea mcdonald is worried that there could be a split which of course he then
10:42 pm
compared to the rise of the establishment of the snp. everyone is talking and of history which this is talking and of history which this isa is talking and of history which this is a fraught issue and a chief rabbi saying you have to look back to history to realise this is high—stakes game, and looking back toa high—stakes game, and looking back to a recent history with the labour party, we are stronger together. izad please come and sort this out in the chief rabbi, he says it is a loaded question and will not go towards them until they sort it out. i will be fascinated to see if jeremy corbyn does lose the vote, what will happen to be brexit campaign. my feeling is his fan base isa die—hard campaign. my feeling is his fan base is a die—hard one, similar to donald trump, the more you attack and it gives more case to be supporters of us why you are going in, they are too threatening to you, too strong
10:43 pm
in power. it lets see what happens. attacks on synagogues and jewish schools, this is a disturbing issue, it is notjust about schools, this is a disturbing issue, it is not just about the schools, this is a disturbing issue, it is notjust about the labour policy. facing pressure to see if you will remain at the bank of england. when mark carney took the job it was controversial at the time because he signed up for less than the normal term in office. because he signed up for less than the normalterm in office. he because he signed up for less than the normal term in office. he talked about his family and his children's school ages so you are reminded that there are human beings with other concerns and of course at the time of the referendum and what happened, he seemed to be the safe pair of pa nts he seemed to be the safe pair of pants and i think there are a lot of people eating very glad to hear that he will be staying on a bit further if true, this is a likely reported piece, he makes not indicated that he will be leaving. they will like an answer. but the government is
10:44 pm
dragging its feet and they should have advertise the job already. sorry to talk about brexit again, one thing interesting here is that if the government of the bank of england and we do leave the eu, you aren't interesting position to help shape the uk's financial rules separately from when we were members of the eu. and the job could become interesting which may be the reason why he will want to stay, including the £174,000 that he is paid every year. that's it for the papers this hour. tony and caroline will be back at 11:30pm for another look at the papers. next on bbc news it's click. this is the business card of our first guest
10:45 pm
on the programme this week, google's self—proclaimed security princess. parisa tabriz is one of the biggest names in cyber security. the buck stops with her if, for example, chrome, google's browser, is hacked. and if you've ever seen these while you're browsing, these little padlocks help us to know if the link between your computer or phone and a website is secure. parisa is behind google's push to get more websites to use the encrypted https protocol. now, not all hackers are bad guys, of course. parisa employs about 200 of them in a specialist unit called project zero. they hack all sorts of software before the bad guys do so any vulnerabilities can be spotted and fixed.
10:46 pm
they're like a police force but they all wear hoodies, because obviously that's all that hackers ever wear, apparently. anyway, dan simmons went to chat about all these things with parisa at the world's biggest cyber security expo, black hat. the security princess is informal, controversial and, unusually for the industry, she's a woman. so honours even with the paper—scissors thing, we agreed to start there. so who gave you the title of security princess? self—appointed. you came up with it. i came up with it myself. when i started at google i had a job title — information security engineer in the information security team, which i thought was a mouthful and also not very meaningful. so i was actually going to go to a conference and they told me to me you need to make business cards. and so i was, like, so, if i was going to have a meaningless job title, i thought i would make it cute and whimsical. on a serious note, you're one
10:47 pm
of very few women at your level in the security industry, even in the it industry, but specifically within the security industry. what's it like? when ijoined chrome to lead the security team i was the only woman, and now we have a whole team which is actually majority women, and they're the one who are actually responsible for all the work that we've seen to push https on the web. what are the things you pick up on that you think, actually, i reckon that probably does put quite a few women off? you hear a lot of stories. you know, very subtle things, like you go to an event and there's women that are, kind of, dressed in scantily—clad outfits and that's, like, the major woman presence there and that doesn't make you feel included and respected as a professional. project zero gets hackers to find bugs in any software on the web. they give vendors 90 days to fix
10:48 pm
it or they go public. doing that has actually incentivised more change in industry in terms of being able to fix security bugs faster. before you started, 25% of those problems got sorted in 90 days i understand? yes. and now it's what? now the vast majority, i think 98% of issues are fixed within the 90—day disclosure policy. you have to be a genius to be in your position? no, you don't, i am not a genius. you have to be a genius. i'm not, i'm really not a genius. if there's one thing i want you to know, i am not a genius. i work hard, i embrace learning, and as you get older you're kind of afraid to fail but that's how you learn. can we do one more because i know i lost the first one, so... sure, sure. 0k. three again? 0k, got it. oh, yes! until next time, parisa,
10:49 pm
thank you very much. thank you. now, in my experience, one of the big themes of almost every efa tech show is the smart home, which usually means the very latest version of a fridge with a camera in it in case you can't be bothered to open the door, but lara lewington has managed to hunt down some actually useful smart homery. there's been no shortage of smart home devices over the past few years, but which ones would you actually want? this small plastic bin is the prototype of something called the bindicator. the idea is it will connect to your local council's website and will then change colour depending on what bin needs to be collected. so it does solve a problem but the question is, do you really want it sitting in your house? one thing that isn't a matter of opinion, though, is that we all want to make sure our homes are safe. yes, it has the sensors,
10:50 pm
it even has the photo sensor which will take five photographs every time a movement triggers it, that's of course only when the alarm is actually set, but this is the real difference — a fog dispenser which will fill the room with fog, so if somebody is about to steal something, well, they might not be able to even find it. once the alarm is set, the control centre will be able to access sound and pictures. the activation ofjust one sensor is then enough to alert a human to trigger this fog if needed. woah! woah, it's quite something. i'm glad i didn't get thejob of being the fake burglar. oh, it does catch in your throat a bit and a bit stingy on your eyes but i've been assured it's perfectly safe, it's passed to some sort of eu regulations, and apparently it leaves no residue inside anyone's home because obviously that would be slightly offputting. i was also warned it may irritate pets.
10:51 pm
but of course it would be better to stop a would—be burglar at the first hurdle, the front door. this isn't the first smart bell that i've shown you but it is claiming to be the first that offers person detection and facial recognition. simon is at the front door. simon's at the front door! hello, simon. i'm just going to come and get you. full functionality does require a subscription. it can then recognise faces as well as unlock live video recordings, which can be available up to five days after they were captured. you can also pretend to be in when you're out. or, of course, vice—versa. they do say there's safety in numbers, though, so maybe you'd like some company. if you were starting to think your home virtual assistant was a little bit low—tech, then maybe it's because you've been waiting for a home robot. now here you can do video calls hands—free. through facial recognition
10:52 pm
and identifying your shape, it can also identify you and follow you around. ijust need to introduce myself. there we go. it knows who i am. so come with me. slightly unnerving. great. i think my phone just needs a bit more power. pop that there. i think actually, sadi, you look a bit too thirsty. i'll pass you a drink. don't worry, no need to move. hey, temi, go to the sofa. i'm on my way to the sofa. brilliant, thanks. it recognised "go to the sofa," it's just not done it. hey, temi, go to the sofa. i didn't get that. go to the sofa. i'm going to the sofa. thank you.
10:53 pm
it does need a strong wi—fi connection and we all know voice recognition still has a way to go but still, you'd better make sure that your guests weren't too thirsty. welcome, astronaut. you're about to embark on your first extravehicular activity on the moon. the suit will be wearing consists of several elements to enhance your experience. a suspended safety harness, a personal telemetry system to track your body movements, and finally, a samsung gear vr headset and controller to help you see objects in your environment. in the run—up to the 50th anniversary of the apollo 11 moon landing next year, creative studio framestore and samsung have been touring the world with their lunar vr experience called a moon for all mankind.
10:54 pm
only 12 white male american astronauts have walked on the moon. no other nationalities or gender or race, so we like the idea of opening up the moon for everybody. while vr headsets can track will respond to your head movements and some will allow you to move around in 3—d virtual space, to really feel like you are on the moon, you are going to have to lose some weight. this beast is based on nasa's own variable gravity simulator called argos, the active response gravity offload system. ok, the rig is now going to weigh me. and then work out what my weight would be on the moon. and then it knows how much extra lift to give me whenever ijump and how slowly to make me descend
10:55 pm
in order to simulate one—sixth gravity. wow. this is what it feels like to be on the moon. the experience hasn't even started yet and i'm having a good time. unlike more advanced vr headsets, the gear vr can only tell which way your head is pointing. the vertical position in the arms and the legs are tracked by the sensors on your suit. here we go to the edge of a crater now. the earth looks amazing. now unfortunately, if you are sensitive to a mismatch between your senses, the fact that you think you are moving forward across the lunar surface whereas actually you are going up and down may cause a little bit of discomfort. i'm going to get out of here because there seems to be a meteor shower. it certainly makes for an exhilarating ride, though. definitely more dramatic than any of the lunar astronauts would have wanted. oh, my goodness. my helmet‘s cracked. mission accomplished! how's that? i survived, but it was close.
10:56 pm
well, that's it for the short cut of click this week. the full—length version is up on iplayer for you to watch any time you fancy, including now, and don't forget we live on facebook twitter as well. thank you very much for watching and we'll see you soon. take your first leap. hello it has been another quite warm day out there at 26 celsius in north yorkshire, many of us saw some sunshine at some stage of the day but unbroken sunshine and canned and
10:57 pm
cloud your view from wales today. satellite picture shows there has been some cloud around the northern and western parts of the uk in particular, the zone a cloud coming in is producing some rain across parts of northern ireland and scotland, gradually moving further studies as comes through the night and eventually reaching parts of northwest england and wales. northern ireland comes out of clearer skies and northwest scotland as well and temperatures dip a cloud coming in is producing some rain across parts of northern ireland and scotland, gradually moving further south east as it comes through the night and eventually reaching parts of northwest england and wales. northern ireland comes out of clearer skies in northwest scotland as well and temperatures dip away. well one or two fog patches but under the cloud a warm night to come. cloud and outbreaks of rain still in the morning and some heavy rain affecting eastern scotland and north east england for a time, the zone of wet weather extends into the southwest and it should turn a bit drier and brighter through the afternoon. there will still be lots of sunshine into east anglia in southeast england although a bit
10:58 pm
more clout compared with today, temperatures edging towards the mid 20s. some outbreaks of rain a much cooler day. eastern scotland paired with the day and even though there are sunny with the day and even though there are sunny spells here, will also feel cooler and fresher. winds are lighter tomorrow. this weather front is in no hurry to move eastwards and slowly will do so monday and tuesday in the cooler air continues to follow on behind. again a very slow process and we can see the blues coming up towards northern england and wales at this stage. along this weather front not a great deal left on tuesday as a grants to a halt. it may still be hidden as of 20 and 21 degrees on the south of it. it will drop back to the mid and upper teens. things are fairly quiet mid week and in the reaction starts later and it will see the area of
10:59 pm
low pressure developing close the uk and keeping cool weather and producing rain in places. this is bbc news, i'm martine croxall. the headlines at 11:00pm: gordon brown intervenes in labour's row over anti—semitism, telling the party its values are at stake. it's not just about a it's notjust about a procedure. it's notjust about a procedure. it's about who we are, it's about what we stand for, it's about what makes us tick. it's about the soul of the labour party. the eu's top negotiator says theresa may's brexit plans are unworkable, as she says she won't be pushed into compromising. smuggling into jails. figures reveal a big rise in the number of prison staff involved. video games which allow players to make in—game purchases are to get a warning icon on their packaging. and at 11:30pm, we will be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers, caroline frost and tony grew. stay with us for that.
