after your appearance! this morning, the practical reality now off, no matter what is agreed at political level, a reminder that practical measures need to be implemented and those take time. this is a report by the national audit office which quite sees the government because it makes it clear that a no—deal outcome would be extremely damaging. they have been making the point that we do need to get a deal. what it focuses on is two things. the issues for traders. complete lack of certainty for businesses about what the customs declarations will mean, for example. and then the security

issue. and an irony here because brexit was supposed to be about taking control of our borders but it is risking control of our borders at least in the short—term. is risking control of our borders at least in the short-term. the impact for business is they do not like uncertainty and this is incredibly uncertainty and this is incredibly uncertain when they are playing investment and supply lines. this uncertainty has been going on the sometime. the rate of growth in the uk economy, you can point the finger toa uk economy, you can point the finger to a certain extent to uncertainty and the lack of businesses and their willingness to invest because of what is around the corner. the sooner what is around the corner. the sooner this gets cleared up, the better. business were welcoming of the potential extension to the transition or implementation period because it does allow them to at

least plan for the next two years and it looks like that may not happen if there is a no—deal. and it looks like that may not happen if there is a no-deal. the financial times, james dyson, a supporter of britain leaving their eu interestingly opting for singapore to build the first of the companies electric cars which they hope will be a flagship product for the company. the company is claiming this has nothing to do with brexit. take that with a pinch of salt. because clearly it is. they say this is merely about market and japan being any china. in that and singapore. more important is that singapore. more important is that singapore has a trade agreement in

place with both japan and china and britain does not have that as an britain does not have that as an britain is unable to get those in place before next month because of the eu rules. this is absolutely about brexit, the lack of trade deals between britain and those key markets. let's stick with the car theme. the dylan thomas power, do not go gently into that good night, was seen not go gently into that good night, was seen to be encouraging angry driving and has resulted in the adverts being banned, pulled. driving and has resulted in the adverts being banned, pulledm driving and has resulted in the adverts being banned, pulled. it is an interesting choice of power to use because it is about dying... a curious thing to attach to driving a car. iam curious thing to attach to driving a car. i am not sure curious thing to attach to driving a car. iam not sure i curious thing to attach to driving a car. i am not sure i would have gone down that route were i am advertiser

andi down that route were i am advertiser and i do think the idea of rage, rage and, indeed, i have not seen the pictures that go with this but, asi the pictures that go with this but, as i read, it suggests it is about people getting rid of their rage by driving fast and i can see absolutely why the advertising authorities were unimpressed by this. as we sit here and talk about it, it seems so obvious but i suppose sometimes in meetings were ideas get developed, people stopped looking at things realistically. there were 12 complaints. this is not horrified the world. but fair enough. this story from business insider, this study by the university of oxford, in some ways not surprising at all that a lot of these apps we have on our phones are

not just logging what we these apps we have on our phones are notjust logging what we do we then it backtracking location, a each, how we are using other apps and 90% of apps use on android phones, google operating systems, the data is then fed back into google's pa rent is then fed back into google's parent company, alphabet. we are just beginning to find out how these things work and, clearly, there are intermediaries gathering information and passing it onto the google. it seems like innocuous stuff. your age, your location, it does not seem like a problem giving that way but what is interesting is what is done with that information. it is used to gather quite clear picture of your

preferences, your propensity to vote ina certain preferences, your propensity to vote in a certain way. what is interesting to me about this is the focus on children. a lot of information is gathered about children and it seems to have been gathered without parental consensus. that is just illegal, that is a case to be made. it takes on technology i read a while ago, if you are paying for something you are the customer if you are getting it are free you are the product. fundamentally that is their business model. we should understand that and understand that if we are getting staff for free we are paying a price that somehow but perhaps it may not be obvious. artificial intelligence and i sometimes wonder if it is the

creative industries that are isolated. arches are creating something created from life experience, emotions but christie is now selling a piece of art that was signed by algorithm, by computer. now selling a piece of art that was signed by algorithm, by computerlj agree signed by algorithm, by computer.” agree with the initial point that the creative industry are protected from artificial intelligence chile on the basis of what we are seeing here. it does not look very exciting each, frankly. i would not pay $7,000 for each but the whole notion of what is art has been on up in the air. we had the banksy picture being threaded. in our office we have electronic pieces of art. what is the value of it? a bit of code on

the value of it? a bit of code on the cheap. what happens if that corrupts? it could corruptjust the minute you bought it. very quickly, the effects of meghan's choice of dress, sales up 400%. you see dress, sales up 40096. you see someone wearing a dress, sales up 40096. you see someone wearing a yellow dress, you go out and buy one if you like it. maybe i not the right person to ask about that. thank you forjoining us and thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. you can get in touch with us on our website and on twitter. stay with us, more to come. hello there, good morning. this mild weather is not going to last forever, but yesterday we had temperatures of 18 in bridlington, and along the coast

here in scarborough, beautiful sunshine from one of our weather watchers. gusty winds, mind you, and it's by the end of the week, as the wind direction changes to more of a northerly, that we'll really draw down some much colder air by friday. at the moment, though, we're south of these weather fronts here, so we're in the milder air, this envelope of milder air with high pressure shaping our weather. around the high pressure, we've got a north—westerly wind that's drawing in a fair bit of cloud. it means the best of the sunshine, sheltered eastern parts of scotland, eastern england, southern england and south wales. more cloud towards the north—west, bit more rain gathering in the north—west of scotland. probably not as windy on wednesday. it may feel a little bit warmer. temperatures again up to 16, maybe 17 degrees. as we head through the evening and overnight, we may see a bit more rain arriving in the north—west of scotland, particularly over the highlands. away from here, though, most bases will still be dry, i suspect.

we'll see some cloud coming further south in to england and wales and temperatures, five, six, seven degrees. moving into thursday, there's probably going to be more cloud across the uk, the sunshine a bit more limited. the winds starting to pick up ahead of this rain that's developing more widely in the north and west of scotland later on in the day. but ahead of that, those temperatures are going to be a little bit lower, so more like 12—14 degrees. the really cold air comes behind that rain, which is on that cold front there. does what it says on the tin. we've got colder air coming as we draw down the winds from the north all the way from the arctic. as we move into friday, we soon see any rain clearing the south—east, then we're looking at showers, wintry in northern parts of scotland, a significant windchill here. most of the showers down the western side of the uk. further east, those showers arriving along those coastal areas later on.

but look at the temperatures, significantly lower and they‘ re not going to be rising any time soon. we've still got high pressure around, but as we move into the weekend, it's sitting to the west of us, so we're drawing down this really cold northerly wind. again, more wintry showers across the northern half of scotland. fewer showers down the western coasts of england and wales, and indeed actually across northern ireland. most of them coming off the north sea to the eastern side of engaland and scotland. another cold day, seven, eight, maybe nine degrees at best. looking ahead, more of a north—easterly wind from sunday and into monday, so most of the wet weather will be in the east. there'll be some sunshine around, but at least for the coming days, it's going to be pretty cold. good morning, welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. our headlines today: warnings of queues, delays and increased criminal activity at the uk's borders, in the event of a no—deal brexit, according to a government watchdog.
