10:30 pm
frosty day. starting tuesday on a frosty note but largely dry with sunshine. and there could be mist and fog through the morning period and it will stay dry through the afternoon. more than half the country holding onto the sunshine with a veil of clouds moving in from the south—west and it will bring wetter weather. we are looking at temperatures in single figures. through tuesday evening and night the wet and windy weather spreads into england and wales as it bumps into the cold air we will see snow falling over the high ground. and the low pressure means the majority will clear out during the course of wednesday day. but a bit of a hand back for east anglia and the south—east but i —— by the time we reach the afternoon the sky should brighten up and it will turn dry for many, but across scotla nd will turn dry for many, but across scotland and northern ireland, find a through wednesday and on the chilly side, with temperatures

rising a bit with the weather front across southern rising a bit with the weather front across southern areas rising a bit with the weather front across southern areas between ten and i2 across southern areas between ten and 12 degrees. it turns more u nsettled and 12 degrees. it turns more unsettled from thursday on and one area of low pressure bring strong wind into the country and the heaviest rain is across the west but it will be a bit milder and we could see ten or ii it will be a bit milder and we could see ten or 11 degrees for edinburgh and belfast. sunshine really will be ata premium. and and belfast. sunshine really will be at a premium. and the deep low could bring a severe scales especially in the north and west and there could be spells of wind that could be disruptive in it sends heavy rain across the country for friday then sunshine and blustery showers and may be some wintry nurse in the high ground. it will turn cooler heading into the weekend and the next weekend and beyond it looks like high pressure is establishing itself across the north—west corner of europe and across the british isles
10:32 pm
which will bring settled weather, some sunshine and the nights might be cool with a touch of frost but by day it should be bright with sunshine. hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. the environment secretary michael gove says theresa may's brexit deal isn't perfect but it is the only choice. french president emmanuel macron holds an urgent security meeting following a day of riots by thousands of anti—government protesters. a warning that the world is at a crossroads at a crucial climate change conference in poland. three astronauts are ready to blast off to the international space station — two months after the unprecendented failure of russia's soyuz spacecraft. hello and welcome to our look ahead
10:33 pm
to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are james rampton, features writer at the independent, and the broadcaster lynn faulds wood. i don't know why they are having so much fun, the stories are not much fun. we have brexit, that is the end of the fun! many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. ‘anarchy‘ on the streets of paris and in the corridors of westminster — below an image of unrest on the champs—elysees, the metro leads on labour's plans to topple the prime minister if her brexit deal flops. growing calls from remainer mps to stage a second brexit referendum have been attacked as a ‘gross betrayal of democracy‘ in the daily express.
10:34 pm
the daily telegraph report that theresa may's chief brexit adviser has said the backstop is ‘bad for britain‘ and has warned her of the consequences. it's parliament versus downing street on the front of the i — who say there's a constitutional crisis looming after the prime minister refuses to show brexit legal advice to mp5. an exclusive in the guardian who say they've uncovered the stark truth about racism in britain. the daily mail says ‘you've done us proud britain‘ after their readers volunteer hundreds of thousands of hours of service to the nhs. and he‘s out of the jungle — noel edmonds stands strong on the front of the daily mirror despite being voted out of i‘m a celebrity get me outta here. i don't even know what the title is, is it out of or tempo? the daily telegraph, backstop is bad
10:35 pm
for britain, theresa may told, how much of this is new? it‘s a little we have seen. this is a leaked letter. if your best friend since you a letter warning you of a bad outcome ? this is oliver robbins who has been involved in negotiations. theresa may, her best pal, who is involved in the negotiations. when i first read it i thought why did he send the letter because no would someone send the letter because no would someone has leaked it.|j send the letter because no would someone has leaked it. i concerned minister has leaked it. with friends like that! he is seeing this bad outcome means we will be stuck with the backstop, that the legal basis for getting out of it is not very good, there could be regulatory checks in the middle of the irish
10:36 pm
the but i‘m sure northern ireland did not know anything about and that security cooperation could be at risk and we could be flooded with terrorists or something. it‘s a pretty dismal letter to receive. it's quite a apocalyptic letter and what we have been hearing in the past weeks, nay, years, in fact centuries of brexit negotiation. i never thought i would say this but i agree with priti patel, the leading eurosceptic and former cabinet minister who said today when even the architect of the agreement appears to see this as a bad deal colleagues must question how they can vote for this. there was a great court last week by one of the creators of sherlock who said brexit was like slitting your own throat and then going to bed i am sure it will be all right in the morning. to me it's the most lunatic suicide mission we have ever been on and the longer it goes on the more convinced lam longer it goes on the more convinced iamof longer it goes on the more convinced i am of that. it's mad what we are
10:37 pm
doing to ourselves. is that because of the deal being struck? yes, but the inevitability because of the war within the tory party from my point of view was always going to be that it would be some terrible fudge because theresa may has got to many parts of her party she has to please. we will move onto daily express. five horrible bees in parliament widely discussed this. pledge for a new eu paul is a great betrayal according to andrea leadsom. i feel our trust was betrayed a long time ago when they got us into this horrible mess. why? creating the referendum in the first place to placate part of the party. it is not just place to placate part of the party. it is notjust the party, a lot of people who are not conservatives voted for brexit. sure, this morning i was watching andrew marr on the
10:38 pm
bbc of course, and he said people who had voted for it would be labelled thick but i think the government was perfect to put us in this place in the first place but we are stuck with it —— like the government was thick. so we should not have had the referendum? personally no, and especially with hindsight, no. i agree but you cannot put the toothpaste back in the tube. more than 17 million people voted to leave.|j the tube. more than 17 million people voted to leave. i know but there was a point where david cameron had to make a decision about whether he would try and inadvertent, is kill off and new kip and his bright idea was to have a referendum, he had just had the scottish referendum and was on a high, he was a man with a natural born sense of entitlement and even when george osborne said it was a bad idea he ignored it and he has got us into this terrible fix, i
10:39 pm
will not repeat what danny dyer called david cameron but he summed up called david cameron but he summed up from the what a lot of people feel about david cameron and the political classes, there is anger still about the words on the leaving bus, 350 million, going back to the nhs, which patiently was not true because that's not what we were paying. the nhs will get £390 million odd extra. and that is not all from brexit. almost half of the country all from brexit. almost half of the cou ntry voted all from brexit. almost half of the country voted to remain so you‘ve got a split country forever unless something exciting happens soon. let‘s look at the metro. anarchy on the streets of paris. let's see something worse in another country! crisis talks, this situation after the 620, crisis talks, this situation after the g20, three people have died and hundreds are injured, these
10:40 pm
demonstrations across paris. it's shocking and this is a striking image picked out here, this burning car turned upside down, ferocious violence taking place. backed by the arc de triomphe, the ultimate sign of perez ian sophistication. this is the moment when the people who feel marginalised and dispossessed within society have risen up and said no. this is a group of people who don‘t wa nt this is a group of people who don‘t want political leaders involved. you have got anarchists from the left and right, people having a real go because they don‘t like emmanuel macron and i am not fond of his because when i saw his grace‘s candidate there was not a single woman on it. —— is crisis candidate. there were hardly any women in the
10:41 pm
620 there were hardly any women in the g20 family photo. this is a man known as c. he is very james bond,, in this moment he is being serious and sing artificial intelligence and robotics will need to be employed to fight the next generation of terror threat which will come as we have seen threat which will come as we have seenin threat which will come as we have seen in many elections from cyber terrorists who are constantly tacking this country already.“ terrorists who are constantly tacking this country already. if you look at one of the latest leaks come on international hotel chain, they have got the details of 500 million people. you‘ve not seen anything yet with cyber attacks, what they can do. and a recognition that continued co—operation with europe would be necessary after brexit. absolutely. it is like when people lived in
10:42 pm
south africa under apartheid everything was political, at the moment everything is about brexit saw a story about the future of spying inevitably reflects back on brexit. if our security ties with out brexit. if our security ties with our current european colleagues are listened while the international cooperation be weakened and stop us preventing attacks which are mounted by international networks? the withdrawal agreement recognises security will continue to be important as you‘d expect from a prime who was previously the home office ? i did a review for the government a couple of years ago and dangerous buttocks and recalls and there was precious little corporation then between the trading standards officers and the police and so on so i‘m not surprised to see him saying we are going to being effects —— in fix with our counterespionage. there was a very
10:43 pm
important satnav operation the whole of europe was involved in and it was said the decision by britain to go it alone was mad and it was stupid to cut ourselves off from this important european project and i think that is emblematic of the way we are isolating ourselves. one minute to discuss what is on front of the daily express, they are in a crusading mode, join the fight to save libraries from final chapter, i feel like these sort of campaigns have been mounted for donkeys years. libraries are constantly under threat. library is under threat from eve ryo ne threat. library is under threat from everyone having a smartphone and looking stuff up now. being able to read books and stuff. i have not seen pages read books and stuff. i have not seen pages 8—9 yet but if they could send us it over. maybe we can call them on our phones and get them to send it then we want need books or
10:44 pm
newspapers. everybody by a newspaper! that is it for the papers, but we will be back for another look at the front pages, now it‘s time for click. it's one of the most important topics that we cover regularly here on click is tech which can assist disabled people. as the cost of prototyping and innovating has come down, and as disabled people have become more involved in the design, we‘ve seen some amazing projects over the last few years. this monday is the un‘s international day for people with disabilities, and so this week, we‘re dedicating an entire episode to the area. now, we start with kat hawkins. she is a double amputee herself, and she has been looking at a company that is trying to bring low—cost prosthetics to children. lead the way. so this is my room. i love it. i‘m with 12—year—old raimi, having a tour of her bedroom. this is my pride hat, because we get to pride every year. you can see an arm
10:45 pm
poking out of there. i make a lot of hats for my arm. i love that you make that! she was born with a shortened right forearm due to amniotic band syndrome while she was in the womb. have you been bullied, have people been mean to you? when i was in year 3, people used to bully me, and they used to go like that, just to represent me, and it was horrible. the bullying raimi encountered meant that she felt excluded and different. but after years of dealing with these feelings, a piece of tech has hit the market, and it is making a huge difference to her confidence. are you ready? yeah, i‘m ready. so this is my arm. so hopefully it‘s charged, i‘m not sure. raimi‘s arm is made by open bionics, a start—up based in bristol. they are bionic and myoelectric, meaning a motor is run by muscles on the residual limb.
10:46 pm
they have only been going for four years, but are already making an impact. so this is the 3d printing room. oh, my gosh. we‘ve had a lot of users tell us previously that they would go into school and they would feel ashamed of their device, and they didn‘t want to wear the hook at school because it resulted in bullying. whereas with the hero arm, it‘s like a gadget, almost, that they get to show off, and they get to experiment with and play with, and they get to swap the covers. and, away from the circuitry, the entire arm and hand it 3d printed. it is the first 3d printed arm to be medically approved and offered to children. it is over half the price of other available bionic arms, but will still cost you around £5,000. it is not currently available on the nhs, either. but they are currently part of a clinical trial, trying to change this.
10:47 pm
one of the biggest incentives for open bionics is about making prosthetics look cool, making kids superheroes. back with raimi, i hearfirst—hand how her arm has made a difference. did you do this? yeah. and so, then, how does the arm kind of fit into how you see yourself? it changes everything. does it? tell me why it changes everything. because you can do so many more things. you can rubik‘s cube with it, you can drink with it. it makes your life better, definitely. especially if you‘re in school, it makes people back off from, like, bullying and things like that. so it‘s definitely... do you really think it has made a difference in that respect? yes, definitely. and you don‘t want this on yourface. yeah!
10:48 pm
i‘m lucy and this is my guide dog, olga. i‘m a youtuber, freelance journalist and disability rights advocate, and as a blind woman, i use apps to help me with everyday tasks, in order to be as independent as possible. and today we‘re going to test out some new blind apps. the first app i‘m testing is welcome by neatebox. what it does is address the issue of accessibility in businesses. when visiting somewhere for the first time, it can be stressful, but this technology should alert venues in advance of what i need during my trip. today i‘m visiting the first bank of england to try out this app, and i‘ve set up a profile and booked an appointment. now i‘m going to see if their location beacons, known as a geofence, will alert the bank that i‘m about to arrive.
10:49 pm
good morning, lucy. morning, lovely to meet you. hello, hi. i really do like this app, and it suitable for all disabilities, but the tech is so new that there still are a few teething problems with. up next is the big spender app, and it has nothing to do with banks. i‘m wanting to spend olga‘s today, so i‘m going on the big spender app, which will me show me hopefully where green patches are so she can go for a busy. and side note — the sped—up voice you can hear is not part of the app, it‘s a screen reader that helps me use my phone. 109 metres away. we‘ll get going. i usually have someone helping me to take olga to the park, so this app could give me so much more independence. so confusing. when i‘ve done it before, it sort of works, but this time, it‘s still telling me that i‘m 109 metres away. 3 hours, 20 minutes? have i done something wrong? no, it‘s still telling me... so it‘s telling me the grass
10:50 pm
is 109 metres away? yeah. i can feel it. ooh. ..ok, this isn‘t the app, but it‘s olga. unfortunately, the app also can‘t tell the difference between a public space and someone‘s front garden. bit of a fail, isn‘t is, og? hopefully, we will have more success with our final app, selfie x. and what better place to try it is in the selfie factory. this is not made for people with disabilities but the voice controls could hopefully help me take a great photo. ok, so i‘lljust load the app. i‘m going to turn my phone around. cheers. done. olga has no idea what‘s going on. say cheese! down, right. down — say cheese! so we‘ve tested out some great apps
10:51 pm
today and some not—so—great ones. and i think the blind tech world is getting better and better every day. but i think some apps need some work, and the selfie one is definitely a go situation for me. down. olga! olga, no! don‘t get the donuts, darling. we‘re really sorry about those donuts. were they real? i don‘t know. anyway, that was lucy edwards and olga. now, if you are visually impaired, driving a car is obviously currently impossible, but as autonomous vehicles start to appear over the horizon, so do the chances of becoming more mobile and independent if you are blind. we asked invictus games athlete jamie weller to try a new car that‘s under development by jaguar land rover.
10:52 pm
when i lost my sight, i was told by my grandparents, "well, you can‘t see now, you can‘t do." those words have always stuck in my head. i always look at things and say, "well, how can i do this?" rather than, "i can‘t do that, i‘m not going to do it." it‘s about a positive mindset. i‘ve pushed back boundaries in what people can do. i‘ve been to deloitte and became the first blind chartered accountant, which doesn‘t sound that sexy. and i was in the invictus games in toronto, winning four bronze medals on track. it‘s a standard range rover sport, that‘s right. but it‘s been adapted, and bolted on around the car, you‘ve got various sensors, radars, front and back and these lidar sensors. this is all the car. did that accelerate itself? yes, yes. this is all the car. my first reaction is, it‘s pretty impressive, actually. now i feel like i‘m
10:53 pm
just in a normal car. obviously, it doesn‘t feel likejim is driving. i think that technology is just going to get better and grow. is this test being used as part of the research, or is itjust pr? no, this is all research we are gathering data. every single run we do. so now cars are coming across in front of us. the car's not reacting, because they're driving away. exactly. there we go. a bit more. so all of this has been from the learning we've on the roads. it's critical testing and data—gathering. i‘d like the car to tell me where i am on my road, whatjunction i‘m coming up to, what shops, where i‘m passing. you know, what‘s my eta, when am i getting to my destination. all that type of stuff would be
10:54 pm
extremely useful for me to come into my head, so i can understand what‘s going on. for me to be able to get around independently, and get in a car and go and take my children to school, pick them up or go to the gym, without having to get public transport, it‘s going to be a massive step forward. my wife always drives the kids around, from parties to school, and all different clubs. but for me to be able to do that, to be be part of the family and function, it‘s going to be a massive step forwards. notjust getting from a to b myself, it‘s fantastic. today, accessibility in tech is phenomenal. when i lost my sight in 1991, the level of accessibility in tech was zilch compared to what it was today. but there‘s still so much room for improvement. don‘t get me wrong, every day is a challenge. it doesn‘t get easy. it‘s hard. but, you know, ife would be interesting if it was easy, would it?
10:55 pm
and that‘s it for the short cut from click for this week. all the companies we featured today have accessibility webpages, and we will put the links to those on our social media channels. we live on facebook, instagram and twitter @bbcclick. thank you for watching, and we will see you soon. sunday did not offer us a great deal of sunshine, some weight whether in places but even on a rather ugly early winters day there can be some
10:56 pm
beauty out there as illustrated by this picture from one of our weather watchers in shropshire, more wet weather to come for a time overnight, outbreak of rain and showers but things are going to quieten down later in the night. the more persistent rain for a time will be into scotland but as we go deeper into the night we are going to see clearer skies developing and frost taking hold and icy patches on treated surfaces where it has been wet, how mild it will be in south wales and southern england, here temperatures up into double figures. as we go on into tomorrow may be a dry start for many of us but weight whether into wales and south—west england and this is a form of some showers, some of them may be heavy and thundery, fishing east, northern counties of northern england, northern ireland and much of scotla nd northern ireland and much of scotland will be dry and sunny though norman scotland will see a few showers and they will be increasingly when three even to relatively low levels towards the end of the day, this is whether call
10:57 pm
this leather is working, as we go through monday night into tuesday morning a weather front delivering a few showers into northern and western scotland, when three in places again with the risk of icy patches but the main story is how widely it will be chilly as tuesday begins and that means widespread frost and there could be a few fog patches around as well. chilly start, lots of fine weather on tuesday, decent son sunshine to come, cloud increasing from the south—west, the next weather system coming in bringing outbreaks of rain into parts of wales and south—west england, chilly across the board on tuesday after the frosty start and the cloud increasing. on three tuesday night and into wednesday this weather system takes rain and snow to the hills particularly in the pennines northwards but some uncertainty about the northern extent, it looks like mainly england and wales, northern ireland staying
10:58 pm
mainly dry, this is where the chilly airwill be mainly dry, this is where the chilly air will be but also the best of the sunshine, quite mild again the further south you are. further weather systems coming in for thursday and friday particularly on friday, much stronger winds for a time as well. this is bbc news — i‘m martine croxall. the headlines at 11:00. the environment secretary michael gove says theresa may‘s brexit deal isn‘t perfect but it is the only choice. we have got to recognise that we don‘t vote for this deal, the alternative is our no deal or no brexit. president macron is booed as he visits the scene of the worst riots in paris in years. a warning that the world is at a crossroads at a crucial climate change conference in poland. and new york police department finds a british couple who lost their engagement ring down a grate in new york city‘s times square. and at 11:30 we‘ll be taking an in—depth look at the papers with our reviewers, james rampton,
