10:31 pm
we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. dominic raab is the latest candidate to enter the race for the conservative party leadership — with media reports suggesting michael gove and andrea leadsom could bejoining him. a british climber dies on mount everest. robin haynes fisher is the 10th person to die on the mountain this season four children are released from hospital after two teenagers died in sheffield. a man and a woman are questioned on suspicion of murder. exit polls in the republic of ireland suggest voters have overwhelmingly backed reforms to the country's divorce laws. president trump arrives injapan for the start of a historic four—day state visit.
10:32 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the broadcaster, john stapleton, and the political reporter, kate proctor from the london evening standard. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. it's been quite a weekend, looking forward to the sunday papers. we'll start with the mail on sunday — and it reveals that dominic raab, the former brexit secretary, has become the latest conservative mp to enter the tory leadership race. michael gove will also throw his hat in the ring — that's according to the sunday times. it says the environment secretary makes his case to lead the uk in a podcast interview with the bbc‘s nick robinson. michael gove‘s leadership bid also features in the telegraph. the newspaper says he's pitching himself as a unity candidate, and as the best choice to take onjeremy corbyn.
10:33 pm
lets turn to the observer. the observer says moderate conservatives are trying to stop borisjohnson becoming prime minister, in order to prevent a no—deal brexit. and borisjohnson is also facing an onslaught from brexiteers — that's according to the sunday express. it says nigel farage has criticised the former foreign secretary, saying you can't trust him over brexit. so, the race for leadership is well and truly on — and it dominates the front pages. let's find out what our reviewers make of it all. i think that is a brilliant headline as well. where shall we start? the daily mail, the news that broke just after nine o'clock this evening. the headline is that the prime minister, or rather the race is turning toxic already. indeed. they quote example after example. it started earlier today, with rory stewart, giving an
10:34 pm
interview to bbc breakfast, effectively saying you can't trust borisjohnson effectively saying you can't trust boris johnson because effectively saying you can't trust borisjohnson because ten days ago i had a conversation with him, during which he assured me he would not crush out with no deal. now he a p pa re ntly crush out with no deal. now he apparently is saying he is. that we will negotiate up to october the sist, will negotiate up to october the 31st, and if there is no deal we will crash out with no deal. rory stewart says he is not a man to be trusted. therefore, he says i, rory stewart, could not serve under boris johnson and his cabinet. that was a bit of a shock this morning. but it has been followed by many more since. we have got other people, iain duncan smith has called rory stewart stu pid iain duncan smith has called rory stewart stupid for making these remarks. matt hancock has thrown his hat into the ring. they all seem to be having a go at each other for various different reasons. as the mail on sunday headline says, it is looking like a toxic campaign already. do you think that is a wise move? the criticism is going to
10:35 pm
come. at so early on? rory stewart? for the knives to come out. come. at so early on? rory stewart? for the knives to come outlj come. at so early on? rory stewart? for the knives to come out. i do think it is sort ofjustified. this debate, this competition to be the leader, it is all about who is a lever, who is a true leader, who is a remaineror soft lever, who is a true leader, who is a remainer or soft brexiteer. they may say they are the unity candidate, but they will be pushed in one direction or another in the binary choice they will face. i think they are being honest from the very start. borisjohnson, rory stewart, they are poles apart when it comes to brexit. so why not say that from the very beginning. conservative party members know that from the start. smears are being made. they are saying they would have a second referendum. hats off,
10:36 pm
everything into the ring, and off we go. this is a dominic raab, saying that brexit needs unflinching resolve. first, how much does that differfrom resolve. first, how much does that differ from what boris has been saying? no—deal brexit, isn't that what he is saying? i think he is trying to position himself as the arch brexit, somebody that is credible, somebody who is removed from the european research group, that group of right—wing tories that dominated so much of the debate over the last couple of years. so i think that dominic raab is right to try to position himself right the way over this. he was happy to crush out without a deal. but we were pointing out something, he has written a piece for the daily mail about why he would be a great leader. he says
10:37 pm
he would be a great leader. he says he wants to renegotiate the backstop. i don't think it's possible. i will quote from what he has written, i would prefer we leave with a deal, but there is still time to negotiate change to the so—called backstop of eu laws, over which currently we have no say. that is a reasonable and limited request, it would work in all... i keep saying to myself, slightly diverting from what we were addressing immediately, what we were addressing immediately, what are any of these people going to achieve? they have been so clear they are not going to open backstop talks. they have been abundantly clear. one could even argue what is the point of theresa may resigning, what can they possibly change? the other thing that emerges from this, going into more detail in a minute, we now have a system in this country whereby initially, of course, the mps decided the two front runners, but ultimately the future prime minister of this country, in this instance, will be decided by 120,000
10:38 pm
conservative party members. they used to have more than that, 3 million, i think it was, they are i'iow million, i think it was, they are now down to 120,000. according to a bbc survey i read this morning, the vast majority are over the age of 55. nothing wrong in that, we say. and the vast majority of them live in the south of england. ijust wonder, is it a fair and proper way to decide? you think an election was the way to go? it would be fairer. moving on from dominic raab, what also struck me about this piece, there is something of a manifesto in there. we have policy detail, which is unusual? he chooses, it is a bit like reinventing the wheel, he is on the side of the aspirational underdog, which is a pretty clunky phrase, and we had theresa may saying i am going to be on the side of people that ijust about managing. they are coming up with these phrases to try and show that
10:39 pm
he would give workers a pay rise, raise the threshold of national insurance. they are going into a kind of detail. i felt for some of the policies, we have heard it all before. let's turn to the sunday times. the next two papers, covering michael gove. first, the sunday times, get boris. michael gove changes again. is he going to shake off 2016? i don't know, this bizarre picture, stroking his pet poodle. here we go. people remember that he is the man who did for boris. now it appears he is going for him again. but his argument is that he is a man who is the unity candidate, as you said in the introduction, vast experience of three major gutman
10:40 pm
departments. he is the man to take onjeremy corbyn. mr corbyn is undoubtedly a hugely intelligent figure. you might think he is the man who could unite the party, while boris wouldn't. boris is talking about crashing out without a deal, he will infuriate the tory remainers in his party. michael gove might be the man to find a middle way. he has a lot of support among mps in parliament. a lot of the 2015 or 2017 generation really look up to him. they see him as a huge brain, they really like what he did in terms of the reforms in education. do they trust him? i really think they do. i think there is a lot of support for him, which is why i think he is a serious contender to boris in terms of getting further and further down the tory party contest. ijust and further down the tory party contest. i just wanted and further down the tory party contest. ijust wanted to remind you that he was once used for using long economic suedes when he was trying to push. before we moved to the telegraph, we are hearing from media
10:41 pm
sources that andrea leadsom has spoken to the sunday times and she has now formally entered the race. she says if she is elected as prime minister, the uk would quit the eu in october, with or without a deal. they'll have to say that, because things haven't quite worked. andrea leadsom, let's not forget, is a woman who allowed theresa may into numberio woman who allowed theresa may into number 10 downing street. arguably the woman who got her out at the end. the leader of the house, she was the last to quit. going into the sunday papers, it is all about the big leave names, one after the other, coming out this evening. rory stewart a nd other, coming out this evening. rory stewart and matt hancock, that was earlier this morning, it shows you how quickly things change. something else i learned, i didn't know until i was coming on this programme, and started looking at a couple of things. borisjohnson is currently the bookies favourite. only once in
10:42 pm
the bookies favourite. only once in the last 50 years has the favourite actually won the race. who knows what will happen. first day out of the box. the sunday telegraph is again concentrating on michael gove. interestingly, a bit of politicking. uk politicking. if you want to beat corbin, you have to back me, rather thanif corbin, you have to back me, rather than if you want to deliver brexit? yeah, i kind of find this an interesting argument. it has come out, quite a lot of people have been giving this warning, and matt hancock did as well, that if we don't all unify as a party, then we are going to see jeremy corbyn number by christmas. that argument speaks to some people, but also i think you are going to lose a lot of people by saying something like that. you know, there is support for jeremy corbyn out there in the country. i'm not sure how powerful that is, really, as an argument. i think that is going to really scare people and i am not sure that it is something that will work in that way. john, let's turn to the
10:43 pm
observer. same old story. boris johnson really dominating the opening salvos. criticism coming from david gauke, thejustice secretary. he wrote a piece for the eu observer. politicians writing various articles, he is another one. —— for the observer. there is a stop boris movement, and david cork is amongst those leading it. he is fairly critical, very critical of boris. we should not pretend that leaving the european union without a deal will be anything other than enormously harmful to our economy. it would weaken our security relationships and threaten the integrity of the union, he says. too often there is reluctance in pointing out the likely outcome of no deal, the pretence by people who should know better, that no deal is somehow manageable. or that it is to be dismissed. yes, fairly strong words from him. further evidence of the fighting that is still going on. this is what intrigues me. no matter
10:44 pm
who becomes leader of the tory party, the prime minister, we still have a divided house. we still have a divided tory party and we still have a divided labour party. i haven't the faintest idea how any of this is going to be resolved. i'm sure you have. kate, we are going to stay with the observer and jump to the other story. it's notjust about the other story. it's notjust about the tories. there is a warning from the tories. there is a warning from the deputy leader, tom watson, the labour deputy leader. the european election results are going to come m, election results are going to come in, the expectation is that labour will not do very well, the conservatives are not going to do very well. so, the focus is on labour, because they have not been straightforward on the second referendum idea. tom watson, the deputy leader, saying that labour must back a second referendum. must have a really clear brexit policy. it must try and win back support. it's really important, because while the tories are fighting about the leadership, you have a huge space opening up, which is there to be
10:45 pm
taken for that remain side, the people's vote side, people who want a second referendum. if labour were not clear, they could miss out on that perhaps electoral success in the future. jeremy corbyn is very relu cta nt the future. jeremy corbyn is very reluctant to do it. he is not a fan ofa reluctant to do it. he is not a fan of a second referendum. john mcdonald was hinting that it is time labour rethought their policy. what you make of that at the bottom, that labour needs to develop a backbone? many labour supporters would agree with that. many people who may have voted for the lib dems because they couldn't make up their mind. at this the lib dems were very clear about their strategy against brexit. chapter their strategy against brexit. cha pter two their strategy against brexit. chapter two coming at 11.30. that was great. for now, it has been great. thank you very much for watching.
10:46 pm
i will be back at the top of the hour. now, click. welcome to london's piccadilly circus, one of the busiest junctions in the city, popular with tourists on the way to the world famous west end theatres. and that's why the biggest brands pay huge money to advertise on those enormous billboards. but why go big when you can go small? our mobile devices nowadays know more about us than we do.
10:47 pm
this almost unrestricted flow of information is a goldmine for advertisers and other groups who want to target us with their messages. not just about what to buy, but also about what to think, and maybe even how to vote. so, exactly one year ago, new eu legislation came into force. gdpr is designed to stop companies from endlessly collecting and storing our data without us ever knowing. if you live anywhere in europe, these notices appear to let you know that the website you're looking at is about to collect some data from your device. delve in and you can choose how your information is shared and collected. well, that's how it should work, anyway. but what's bothered me over the past year is just how complicated some sites make it to switch off the data collection. the option to actually opt—out is often obscure, the process of opting out is long and confusing, and even then you might not be able to opt—out completely without going to lots of other
10:48 pm
websites and individually opting out there too. i don't think many of us really understand the options and even if we do, come on, how many times could you notjust be bothered and just press accepted all anyway? hmmm, i'm not sure gdpr is working as intended, are you? the good news is, this legislation is notjust about restricting how our data is collected, it also gives us the power to ask companies what information they hold on us. so that's exactly what carl miller set out to try to do. i'm on a battle to get my data back. hi there. can i make a subject access request under gdpr, please? a subject access request did you say? yes, to exercise my right to be informed about all data
10:49 pm
which is held on me. if you live in the eu, you can use something called a subject access request to ask companies for a copy of your data. all sorts of businesses hold onto our personal information, from banks to supermarkets to media organisations. the whole process is supposed to be straightforwards. i've gone on their website and it doesn't work! there's no e—mail. now i have an e—mail address. you're supposed to pick your own channel for making these requests. and these are only the businesses i directly work with. most people don't realise how companies you've never heard of have bucketloads of about you. every click you make, and maybe not make, may be recorded and shared. this is the business of personal data. theirjob is to scoop up every crumb of information they can get hold of, both from public and private sources, and analyse it to understand me. or at least try. one company i got my information from had drawn data from hundreds
10:50 pm
of different sources to create thousands of different guesses about what i'll be like as a consumer. these companies have created a strange digital copy of myself that i don't even recognise, making presumptions i don't necessarily agree with. all the while i'm thinking i'm getting things for free, so little nuggets of information leaving my life and getting collected by others, it doesn't really matter. but now i'm beginning to feel i'm the product and it is me that people are getting for free. frederike kaltheuner is a data and privacy campaigner, and i sat down with her to talk through my concerns. there are two separate types of harms. when it's accurate, it's very creepy, and you'll be, like, "why does this company knows how much alcohol i consume?" but when it isn't, it can be equally concerning, maybe you're misclassified as something negative and you aren't, but you're not aware that the company... somewhere in some database a company think you're a gambler and there's nothing you can do about it. this is my new vacuum cleaner, the robot i've been dreaming of for many years.
10:51 pm
and like many other smart devices, to operate it, i first have to download its companion app. i just scanned over the terms and conditions because otherwise i'll be here forever. according to one study, it takes 76 days to read all the privacy policies that we come across online. and then the cleaner starts mapping my house, but now i'm suspicious and i go to check its not hoovering up things i haven't bargained for. i'm off to imperial college. here, researchers have been looking at how internet of things devices, from child monitoring cameras to light bulbs to smart plugs, can collect and share our data. let's start off with my vacuum cleaner. so we brought the hoover into the lab and we have realised the hoover is a little bit more than a hoover. we analysed the wi—fi data and we saw that the hoover
10:52 pm
is sharing the floor maps with some server in china. and it's notjust a vacuum cleaner, this is a monitoring camera meant to keep us secure but in fact it's sharing data with 5a partner organisations. collecting data is a common practice for lots of internet—enabled vices — after all, they need it to function properly — but there's very little transparency, so we have no way of knowing how much a device needs itself to work and how much is being given away. sometimes with these devices, we notice there's an inverse relationship with the amount of data they collect and their price. so cheaper devices, they are financed, in a way, with your personal data. so they're collecting tons of data about you and send it to tens of servers around the world. it's really strange how actions you think are really trivial — switching on a light, switching on a smart plug, changing the volume on your tv or, of course, cleaning your floors — can actually be telling so much
10:53 pm
about you to companies you're not even aware of. stop tracking me! gdpr says it doesn't matter where the company is based or product is made, you still have the right to your information. but if you don't know who to ask, how can you ask? i've spent over a month making requests from 80 companies, and around a dozen have replied. so this is what it actually looks like to get your data back. i'm probably 100 e—mails deep now, and yesterday, by recorded delivery, this slightly crumpled white envelope turns up at my front doorstep. sp thank you so much, gdpr, i've got my data now. and it's in huge quantities. so if i was to print out all the data that i've got, well, this is 1,000 sheets of paper, i would need seven stacks of this if i was to print out all of it. for all its faults, i have no doubt, gdpr is the first step in the right direction, but i fear ultimately we, the users, will be the real instigators of change. until we demand it, we are accepting to carry on living in a system
10:54 pm
that we know precious little about but that certainly knows a lot about us. now, did you know that there are a whole host of effects artists working across instagram, of all places. we went to visit one in modena, in italy, home of balsamic vinegar and ferrari, amongst others, to find out why. my name is simone vezzani, i am a 3d artist based in italy, and i publish content for social media. if somebody thinks that what i do is real, for me this means that i did a good job.
10:55 pm
i choose instagram because it is full of people that they are just watching and get amazed at what they see. # i don't want to set the world on fire...#. i started record footage about my own life, my travel, my trips, my visits, museum visits, for example. and i start to mix them with digital content. platform for this kind of content, instagram, was perfect because people are not used to see and to watch this kind of media content in this platform. platform for this kind of content, instagram, was perfect because people are not used to see and to watch this kind of media
10:56 pm
content in this platform. when i was younger, i was really obsessed about video games. suddenly i grew up and i realised that for living i have to work somehow. i found this kind of software and this 3d software in particular for me is another way to see these video games, because inside this kind of software i can manipulate and create everything i want. i usually spent something like one, two, maybe three weeks working on one single video because i'm alone and i have to take care of every single aspect.
10:57 pm
i don't consider myself as an artist. i'm really happy when someone told me that i'm an artist, i'm a surrealist or something like that, but i'm simply a guy who likes to play with computer and experiment new techniques, new styles, new ways to see the world. the rather talented simone vezzani, finishing off the short cut of click for this week. the full—length version is up on iplayer, you can watch that on right now, and if you'd like to follow us throughout the week, we are all across social media — youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter too @bbcclick. thanks for watching, and we'll see you soon.
