tar 15:1 it ‘uiéri but wired said the reality is anything but. another tax story in the i, profiling a youtube part of the i, profiling a youtube part of the growing number who are giving study advice online. —— youtuber. finally, the sun covers some of the new words which will score your points and scrabble. we have mentioned some of them. she—bagging is one of them, we will have to figure out what that is. with me is priya lakhani, founder and ceo of century tech, a uk—based education technology platform. let's look at the daily mail, they had is very strong. "you're fired", says theresa may. he claimed he didn't do it. we spoke about huawei earlier, but if we talk about what happened, the league, which came from a very private meeting, of all the meetings this should be the one where you don't get any leaks whatsoever, talking about security et cetera. the prime minister is

very concerned about what other countries might be thinking about shared information with the uk if it gets leaked. and it puts us in a really difficult position where the us has straightaway come out and said, if you do business with huawei, that might affect our future collaborations. here, this big story, you're fired, the prime minister being strong and trying to give off this impression that she has got control of her cabinet, i think 42 people had left the party oi’ think 42 people had left the party or something like that, literally since to hold the baikal of brexit began. then you have got the strong headline from gavin williamson, "i didn't do it", swearing on his children's lives he didn't do it. didn't do it", swearing on his children's lives he didn't do itm is actually a very serious allegation against him, if he was to lick information from the national security council meeting, as defence secretary... security council meeting, as defence secretary. . . which security council meeting, as defence secretary... which is a breach of the official secrets act, it is a criminal offence, it is an presentable offence. the labour

party are calling for an investigation into what happened. all the parties are, gavin williamson didn't resign, he was fired, he has replied with another letter and he is actually asking for a formal investigation, to clear his name. that is why this has backfired on theresa may. because she says there is compelling evidence. it is an allegation. but he is denying it. i think this story is set to play out over a number of days. not forgetting, he was priming himself potentially for the top job. so this sort of allegation basically destroys his political career and he will be back to the back wrenches forever. in the meantime, the person who will fill his shoes is making history, penny mordaunt. the first woman to become defence secretary in the uk. it is amazing and brilliant, but... iam the uk. it is amazing and brilliant, but... i am offended by the sun's portrayal of the story. we are looking at it now. there she is in herswimming looking at it now. there she is in her swimming costume. why? for crying out loud, this is offensive and upsetting. i would say don't buy

the sun, don't read the sun online. it is outrageous. gavin williamson, he is accused of doing something which is a criminal offence which threatens our national security, in a suit, looking semi— respectable in his photograph. at his replacement, the first female defence minister in the first female defence minister in the united kingdom, is in her swimsuit. it is just appalling. the united kingdom, is in her swimsuit. it isjust appalling. the reason she is in her swimsuit in that particular photograph is because she was a contestant in a television series called splash. and they are playing on the words, penny makes a big splash. to be honest, there are plenty of photographs, the paparazzi there are plenty of photographs, the pa pa razzi followed there are plenty of photographs, the paparazzi followed the men around and get photos of them and our swimsuits, i know it is a plan and it is supposed to be clever but this is not clever. we were talking earlier about how when theresa may became prime minister it was all about her legs. and her clothes, and her shoes. have a bit of respect. it was not about who she is, what she has achieved, whatever potential is. in the story they try to tell you more about penny morton. she was

secretary of state for the department of international development. they say that she had a difficult upbringing after her mother died of cancer when she was 15. that her father was diagnosed with cancer. i have not really read many stories about men in office where we go on about how the parents we re where we go on about how the parents were sick or ill. is that trying to betray some kind of weakness? i think the whole story is just awful and they should be writing these sorts of things, it is just outrageous. let's hope it changes in the future. we shall see. as you say, when it comes to female politicians and when they get into senior positions, the newspapers, not just the son, senior positions, the newspapers, notjust the son, they senior positions, the newspapers, not just the son, they all tend senior positions, the newspapers, notjust the son, they all tend to do this. what they are wearing, what they look like, et cetera. moving onto the mirror. "emission impossible, uk must cut greenhouse gases to zero x 2050 to help save the planet". it has lots of different examples, it looks at the top ten polluters, countries around the world. this is so in the news in the world. this is so in the news in the uk because of the protests we

had in london, because of the young woman, greta thunberg, who came over to speak to members of parliament. it is the issue. extinction rebellion, may be having those bare naked backsides in parliament have some sort of effect here. britain is setting out its plans to be the world leader in fighting climate change, and i'm incredibly proud of that, being british. what they are doing is changing the goals and saying, look, it is far too —— it is far away in terms of trying to swap from diesel and petrol cars to electric, let's bring that forward. they are talking about us playing a pa rt they are talking about us playing a part of citizens. eating less meat, less beef, less lamb, because livestock are a major source of emissions. this is really asked being at the front of this. they are also talking about aviation and shipping, which neither country has done. sweden has also set out their goal is to be a leader in this battle against climate change. but here we talk about aviation, which

is obviously one of the set is that we really have to watch in terms of how guilty it is of contributing to this issue. —— one of the sectors. in the top polluters, we come out number 15. but in the top polluters, we come out number15. but we in the top polluters, we come out number 15. but we are small, compared to china and the us and india and russia. but they are much larger countries with bigger populations, so they will emit more carbon. we are not comparing like with like. let's look at wired, i wa nt with like. let's look at wired, i want your take on facebook. we were talking this yesterday as well. look past the facebook redesign and the future is totally not private. that is the analysis of matt burgess, writing for my quiet. what is your ta ke writing for my quiet. what is your take on their new line, as it were, mark zuckerberg saying they are going to change, he is going to do this well, they are going to become more personal and private. even we facebook will know what you are discussing. they say that, because 4296 discussing. they say that, because 42% of facebook users in the us took a break from the platform after cambridge analaytica. —— cambridge

analytica. do you use facebook? i am off it, i have a presence there but i don't really engage with it. i am concerned about when my data is going. the story is interesting. they dig deeper. all of this privacy and encryption does not get to the ci’ux and encryption does not get to the crux of the problem. the crux of the problem in terms of data sharing never stems from private chats. it stems from the colossal amount of data facebook holes. it digs into the fact that all of this sort of rebranding and uplifting and talk about encryption has no real bearing about encryption has no real bearing about what is the problem at facebook. and also, all this change is not going to third ad revenue either, is what they are saying. this is right up your alley. could this teenager help you pass your exams? she looks gorgeous, she looks really smart, but is she going to help our young people do better? better at school, in their exams? it is all about bloggers and vloggers

giving their top tips. yes, these young students, going online and giving their top tips. students say it affects their well—being in a positive way, they can relate to each other and they don't feel quite so each other and they don't feel quite so isolated. i tried to watch one of these earlier in the green room, it was about 15 study session, which is concerning. 15 hours? neuroscientific there is is that just doesn't work stop you need to ta ke just doesn't work stop you need to take breaks. this vlogger talks about blurting, which is where you write down everything that you know. neuroscience is that does actually work, it is about the process of recall and strengthening the brain. there are a fair few things here which are really, really positive. pa rents a re which are really, really positive. parents are concerned about youtube isa parents are concerned about youtube is a destruction but you have to get with the times. if kids are going to be on there anyway i would rather they watch list and some of the other nonsense out there, put it that way. indeed. speaking of nonsense, these slang words but the

youth culture users, words which have crept into scrabble and now you can officially use them. she—bagging. what is that? can officially use them. she—bagging. what is thanm can officially use them. she-bagging. what is that? it is basically about women but i think men do this as well, what you put a bag on the seat next to you so basically no—one can sit next to you. itjust depends which bag it is. depends which train you are on and what time. i love this, there are now more zs and what time. i love this, there are now more zs and and what time. i love this, there are now more zs and xs. i am a strategic scrabble player. smack career will get you 17 points, that is allowed to kiss, apparently. —— smackeroo. mansplaining is in there as well, which i think is necessary. what is that? when a man explain something to a woman in a really patronising way. i wonder what you get for mansplaining. 18 points, no wait, that is man spreading. get for mansplaining. 18 points, no wait, that is man spreadinglj didn't actually know there was an official list of scrabble words, i thought it was just the dictionary.

now we know. hello. we are now over halfway through the working week, for many there is a bank holiday weekend to look forward to. the weather managed to behave itself but more on that in just a moment. yesterday we saw some showers across the uk, if anything, today the showers, more widespread. and some of them are likely to be fairly heavy affairs as well. it all starts off fairly quietly, there will be a few showers across eastern england first thing, some feeding into wales and the north—west of england. but as the morning wears on, and the sun starts to warm up the atmosphere little bit, we will see some towers of cloud building and then the chance of thunderstorms increases come the afternoon. we could see a shower just about anywhere, really, on thursday. not all places will see them, but if you are caught in the showers, chances are they are going to be quite punchy. the greatest risk of thunder, i think probably across the midlands and northern england. the rain you see across scotland is slightly different, there is more cloud here, this is actually a weather front. and this is quite a big marker for the change in our weather as we end the week and get into the weekend. the showers will clear overnight,

thursday into friday, ahead of this front sliding south. not bringing much in the way of rain but the blue triangles give you the clue, it's a cold front coming in behind it, much colder air on friday. the showers coming in on the northerly wind into scotland. wintry across higher ground, that wind will feel bitter as it strengthens down the north sea coast. ahead of the front to the south, not too bad, some sunny spells, there could be the odd shower, but a high of 15 degrees. to the north, factor in the wind and that seven in aberdeen, probably will feel more like freezing. what a difference after temperatures in northern scotland were 20 degrees earlier this week. the cold air will dig its way all the way south across the uk through the remainder of friday into saturday. it will stay with us through the bank holiday weekend. that nagging northerly wind could feed in a few showers to eastern reaches of the uk, but on a positive note there will be a lot of fine weather around. away from the east coast, a frost possible first thing on saturday, if you are a gardener or a grower, beware. i've certainly got some of my young plants out at the moment, time to dig out the fleece. for saturday daytime we should see some decent sunshine, but temperatures never really recover. bit more cloud around on sunday,

monday the wind should ease and that could make quite a big difference. after a couple of pretty chilly days, saturday and sunday, monday you may find things starting to feel closer to average temperatures for the time of year, shall we say.

good morning. welcome to breakfast, with ben thompson and charlie stayt. our headlines today: sacked as defence secretary over the leak of highly sensitive information from a top—level security meeting. but gavin williamson refuses to go quietly, saying he strenuously denies the allegations. eating less meat, taking fewer flights, and giving up our cars — how the uk could become a world leader in tackling climate change. how healthy is our economy? the bank of england will tell us later what they make of growth, interest rates, and the brexit delay. i'll be finding out what we might expect. liverpool are stunned by messi's magic in the champions league. the ‘little magician' inspires barcelona to a 3—0 win
