meanwhile, the financial times says a labour government would confiscate about £300 billion of shares in 7,000 large companies and hand them to workers in one of the biggest state raids on the private sector ever to take place in a western democracy. the south china morning post focuses on the ongoing protests in hong kong where the anti—government protesters brought chaos to hong kong's international airport on sunday, forcing travellers to walk part of the way to the city after crippling train services and blocking roads. in the independent business section, china and the us imposed extra tariffs on each other‘s goods yesterday in the latest escalation of their trade war. beijing's levy of 5% on us crude oil marked the first time the fuel has been targeted since the world's two largest economies started their trade war more than a year ago.

and this is our talking point today on social media. kfc‘s pla nt—based version of its classic fried chicken sold out within hours after being tested at one of its chains in atlanta, georgia. the trial launch of the nuggets and boneless wings made from plant—based beyond meat appeared to be a huge hit with customers. who knew? so, let's begin. with me is 0liver cornock who's editor—in—chief, 0xford business group. earlier we were talking about this move on the part of the whip within the tory party, apparently ringing up the tory party, apparently ringing up the conservative rebel mps to give them this morning, if you were to act in rebellion this week, you will pay for it. tell us what the times has to say. they say that tomorrow, tuesday, the first day back at school for those who sit in the house of commons, they will be allowed to seize control of the parliamentary business and vote on putting through a no deal,

disability to prevent the prime minister from disability to prevent the prime ministerfrom negotiating, saying we can walk away, no deal. boris johnson says actually that is a disaster for my negotiating position and my mps on my side of the party will be expelled, they will have the whip removed, they cannot vote. this can be reinstated. they will be a belt if they choose to side with the labor party and others within parliament who are trying to prevent ano parliament who are trying to prevent a no deal? people who are opposed to a no deal? people who are opposed to ano a no deal? people who are opposed to a no deal? people who are opposed to a no deal brexit. and he is saying that actually michael gove in the article is saying we might not abide by the legislation anyway. we are up for a very busy week and it is only monday morning. an extremely busy beak. we will see how this week progresses. time is of the essence because of the fact parliamentary activity will be suspended sooner than many expected. absolutely. and

it comes back to the problem from both sides, both the opposition, the official opposition and the ruling conservative party that they do not have a particularly strong majority either way. the tories only have one person in the labor party position is still very murky on brexit. we will talk about this all week. let's move on to the front page of the financial times. i have a frog in my throat. talking about the analysis done by the financial times and the law firm which looks at what might happen if there were to be a labour government, because there is so much talk about there being a general election quite soon. it is interesting reading. give us your ta ke interesting reading. give us your take on this. on the fifth —— face of it, they need like a pole in the head. it is a huge amount of uncertainty and investors will think if there is a general election looming, all of the optics suggest that will not be terribly far away,

this is positioning, the labour positioning themselves and their quite radical left—wing agenda. anybody who has watched uk politics over the last couple of years will know this is actually entirely predictable and at the same time there are elements of this story, there are elements of this story, the two main elements are the idea uk companies that employ over 250 people would have to have a share, they have to share some of their earnings. that would be up to £500 a year and the rest of that is a stealth tax that would go to the government. a lot of businesses already do have employee share options so it is this is legislating it and options so it is this is legislating itand on options so it is this is legislating it and on a very, very large scale and is quite dramatic. the other one is about actually legislating against the landlord in the uk and the right to buy, thatcher mark to write to buy. quite radical. the article says 2.6 million landlords in the uk this is a big part of the uk economy. what a lot of our european friends understand is the majority of uk people own their own homes, it is a big part of the

economy and the bond markets and the financial services industry, and the left—wing labour, the labour is particularly radical is very opposed to that. in conclusion, this comes down to electioneering. absolutely. it comes down to electioneering which many are accepting the queen's speech will absolutely be about that as well. this exciting new package borisjohnson is telling us he will deliver, which is why he needs this extra time to put it together. what will this do? this analysis we see on the front page of the financial times today, people who read this, whether they are a chicken —— chief executive or a company, what will people make of it? the financial times is broadly pro— free—market capitalism, you might say of course they will be particularly negative on this. this is only one of five days, a week of coverage on this story. it will be interesting to see what the rest of the week holds on

this. this definitely is not good news for uk businesses. some might argue the opposite. they might say actually many, many companies who already have workers who have share ownership, who are involved in how the company is run, from the perspective, the chief executive is not having to answer to investors and shareholders all the time, but the employees in those companies see great success and growth in those workers, the morale is higher, they feel much more ownership of the company they work for. that is definitely true. the financial times is keen to point out that, it works quite well and there are other models to consider. lots of dramatic images in today's south china morning post of what happened in hong kong on sunday. and saturday of course. the protests turned extremely violent, but also how these protesters effectively managed to prevent normal activity at the international airport again. many of them were not allowed inside the

airport, but they blocked roads and trains and access. they didn't close the airport down from flights, which they did four weeks ago. this is into its 13th week in the rhetoric in this paper which is of course arguably, it has quite a government spin on it, but the language is changing. it is talking about masked radicals. i worry about this, it is shifting. the other angle is the average hong kong person on the street, while they might have sympathy with the protesters, in the 13th week are getting pretty sick and tired of it. i was in an airport in dubai chatting to someone from hong kong and they are very sympathetic, they feel very strongly about the rescinding of democratic rights towards china, but they are also saying, i have to get my kids to school. i think this is becoming a bit tiring. 32 stations vandalised. vandalism and destroying infrastructure is always very negative. we will keep an eye on how it develops and how the general

strike goes today and tomorrow. i skip to the story about kfc because a trade war is something we talk about a lot. i can send that story out in more detail. what sandwich was, kfc sells out of plant —based chicken in atalanta. this was a test on the part of kfc and it would see there is a real appetite for plant —based foods. there is a real appetite for plant -based foods. i am surprised. in the uk we have a bakery called greg's and they introduce a vegan sausage roll that has proved extremely popular. i do think for a minute that this article is not encouraging people to be vegetarian or vegan, it is playing more towards increasing amount of people that choose not to eat meat every day, flexitarianism. 0ur grandmother ‘s to say everything in moderation. what are you? i

flexitarian. there is discussions about to what extent is this better. what chemicals have been used in this plant production. that worries me. a huge amount of the plant —based stuff is not necessarily very environmentally friendly, chemicals, fertiliser... : on twitter says, it is no more healthy than chicken. it is no more healthy than chicken. it is still actually deep—fried that is one comment. we have one as well, they need to change their name to kfp instead of kfc. thank you for coming in. thank you for your company this morning. whatever you are up to today, i hope you have a good one and i will see you soon. hello there. good morning.

cloudier, milder weather is set to return across much of the uk for monday. the weather will look a little bit different to the way it did on sunday. still a few showers around at the moment, particularly across northern areas but it is turning quite chilly and we have clearer skies across the south as well. we have had those cooler, fresher, north—westerly winds on sunday and they will be replaced by these west—south—westerly winds coming around top of this area of high pressure. we're going to find these weather fronts focusing the wetter weather across the northern half of the uk. ahead of that, with the clearer skies, in eastern scotland, eastern england, it will be chilly and temperatures could be lower than this in rural areas, perhaps 3 or 4 degrees. it will be milder across northern ireland and western scotland. they will start the day with cloud and outbreaks of rain, which will push steadily eastwards. further rain through the day across scotland. always wetter in the west. rain for northern ireland and northern england

and north wales. a few spots of drizzle further south over those western hills. middle and south—east england, some sunshine in the morning, more cloud in the afternoon. probably going to be dry, temperatures at best 22 degrees. even further north with the cloud and rain, those numbers are higher than we saw sunday. quite windy, though, in many places. those south—westerly winds should tend to push away the worst of the rain during the evening. it will stay a bit damp and dreary around some of these western hills and coasts. and on the whole, there'll be a lot of cloud on monday night, into tuesday morning. as a result, those temperatures will be a bit higher. by which time, we've got the high pressure really getting squeezed down to the south of the uk. this broad westerly airflow, some weather fronts on the scene, complicating what is a fairly straightforward cloudy air mass that's heading our way. there may be sunshine across some eastern areas out to the west. we will find some thicker cloud, some rain and drizzle. turning wetter later in the day actually for western scotland and northern ireland where there will be some brisker winds too. still dry for eastern parts of england. in the south—east, we will see highs of 23 celsius. in the north—west, that rain

could turn quite heavy later. it will slide its way down across england and wales and bring some rain into south—eastern areas. could be half an inch of rain or so overnight into wednesday morning as that wet weather hangs around for a while. and then we've got some sunshine and showers, longer spells of rain, driven down across scotland and northern ireland into northern england. some really windy conditions, actually, for western parts of scotland and that will really start to drop the temperatures once again. briefly, we're getting a north—north—westerly wind on wednesday, but then we're back to these atlantic winds as we head into thursday. again around that area of high pressure so more cloud and some rain in the north.

good morning welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today: ahead of a critical week at westminster, downing street warns conservative mps to back borisjohnson or face the sack. potential tory rebels are told they will "destroy" boris johnson's negotiating position if they seek to support a move to block a no—deal brexit. a big advertising campaign has been launched to get us ready
