across the eu. the wealthiest place is right here in west london — and the poorest is in bulgaria. the paper points out that only five areas of spain are above the european average. the gap between rich and poor has widened by 40% since the financial crisis — with capital cities gaining most and rural areas losing. the daily telegraph reports plans by the uk health service to treat children with mental disorders triggered by gaming and social media over—use. the chief executive of the health service has accused internet firms of cashing in on young people's addictions. and one other technology story — this time from the bbc website. it examines the emergence of the new buzzword — femtech — basically any form of online application aimed at women. some love it, but plenty hate it. the article asks whether it helps or hinders equality.

helping me to take a look at the papers is priya lakhani, founder of century tech — an educational software company. talking about the times. many have this on the front page of their paper. justice for my son. you have the two mothers. us accused of betrayal in this diplomatic row, says the times. and it is pretty shameful. in this case, the forces agreement. it is an important immunity that is created in the vienna convention in the 1960s and essentially what it does is it allows envoys, ambassadors, to have really complex, difficult conversations with essentially hostile governments. there is an important reason. it is an abuse of power. it is being used by people, too, in this case, this is a really important investigation. it has tragically affected this family. but

people avoid child exploitation charges, et cetera, by using their powers. where to look at these people that are covered by this immunity, and ask if it should cover 25,000 people. also look at what it applies to, maybe be a bit stricter. this particular case could be an important step forward in making sure this privilege is not abused. is not abused. and the us actually haven't been that great was not the same thing happened. i think it was the last war, there was a spy that was accused of spying for nazi germany. they essentially waved immunity. they have actually managed to benefit from other countries so this is important for president trump and prime ministerjohnson must push on this. dominic raab was on the phone to his us counterpart mike pompeo last night but we don't really know what the us response is to this will. they are being quiet. they are being quiet but this is an

opportunity to do the right thing. you can't really get closer to home. this is essentially a child that has been killed. a 19-year-old. the picture is quite telling of the two mums. the guardian, no-deal brexit would raise the debt to 50 year high. this is an independent body and has not got a brexit agenda, as such. it is looking at the spending plans of the current government. we have heard a lot about it. more money for the health service, police, something that i remember amber rudd is saying a lot before the last general election, the labour party has this money tree, it all coming from? it would seem the conservative party now has claims to the money tree. pre-election i think they all have claims to the money tree. he is worried that this possible tax giveaway pre—election is really dangerous build up his

quote here is interesting. the government is adrift without any fiscal anchor. i think they are saying the government by —— borrowing is already up and we have to be worried about throwing money away or we will face a bad period. and they are saying it is the last —— bizarre scenario. i mean, they don't use the word bizarre, that is my interpretation. but normally it would be a labour or a socialist government where you have to say, hang ona government where you have to say, hang on a second, rain in that spending was not it is all a little bit topsy—turvy. spending was not it is all a little bit topsy-turvy. it is but when sajid javid made the announcement a month ago, talking about the spending spree, he said he is doing it conservatively and this is about preparing for an election, education, health, less security, the buzzwords that everybody cares about. don't worry about the budget, we will just about. don't worry about the budget, we willjust spend, spend, spend.

what hopefully, i mean, it is always a nice thing to see if they are going to spend more money on teachers. remember prudence, prudence, prudence. they are trying to change the culture within the labour party back then. let's look now at el pais. this is the interesting article looking at the gap within the european union. since the 2008 financial crisis and we remember well, portugal bailed out, ireland bailed out, this whole debt crisis, greece bailed out. and looking at the divide that has got even wider. and the picture there, the red and the green. that is 2007th showing the differences in income so the richest region, we are sitting in it, west london. —— 2017. 227 euros is the gap. it doesn't surprise me at all. when i read this

detail and this information and the data has come from a eurostat. these rural areas of spain, we have talked a lot about it here on our business programming, the level of unemployment is so high and especially youth unemployment where it is absolutely chronic full stop the 0ecd has made it clear. this is obviously a huge issue in spain but i think we will see rural areas and lots of countries. we will find the high street is empty. this is something we obviously have to try and focus on, notjust the capitals. what you make of this story? a web giants cashing in on the misery of children. because they are having to deal with mental health issues within the national health service, saying, these tech giants, games like fortnite, they need to be more accountable. what do you think of it? this is addiction. this is under

healthy addiction. gaming, social media —— unhealthy. they are saying we should introduce levies. they are having to open up special centres to treat young people. the young children that £1 million, do you remember? he won the big fortnite petition. we talked about the mother investing in the game for him. it is interesting how now you get the contrast, one child wins it and you celebrate but then actually you have the consummate and the suffer. we have to look at what they are saying in the industry, this effects of —— a small portion but we know social media creates issues, all sorts of issues in terms of bullying... when i was reading this article myself and it was talking about how health chiefs in the uk a pointing their

fingers, children on their phones after midnight was that i have three sons who are right in the thick of this world, as it were, i think the well, what are the parents doing? that is a fair question.” well, what are the parents doing? that is a fair question. i don't let mine on these devices, they are not allowed. we always ask what other pa rents allowed. we always ask what other parents doing? i know it is hard, parenting... i haven't got it together by any means. this story, femtech, right time, wrong term. i find this fascinating. it is. initially i thought femtech was a female and mother entrepreneurs, i wa nted female and mother entrepreneurs, i wanted to vomit. but it is about tech for menopause, pregnancy, breast—feeding. it is a subsection of health tech, if you like. think about the in the supermarket. lots of women have two raise money from

many investors. if the headline is femtech, they have to brace themselves and be aware of it was a bit of time we talk about these issues. tech being created to help you with your pelvic floor!” issues. tech being created to help you with your pelvic floor! i have had three children, i need to know about it! it is a $15 billion industry so if that doesn't help arouse investors in some way, it should. we have to be comfortable talking about these things. they are producing this great technology at... and it is technology that would be probably widely used by half the population are so femtech should, in some ways, have the backing of capitalism in the same way that fintech is. if it is a good idea, you back it. whatever tech it is. it is a quality all around. we have to leave it there. priya it has been great to have you. have a lovely day and we will see you soon.

hello there. this week is looking typically autumnal, quite unsettled, windy at times and there will be plenty of showers in the forecast. also, some sunshine, it won't be a washout all the time, but when you catch one of these showers, they will often be quite heavy. maybe with a rumble of thunder and some hail mixed in too. all down to low pressure, which will be just to the north—west or to the north of the uk over the next few days and indeed for much of the week. so our air will be coming in off the atlantic with these weather fronts bringing in bands of showers. one thing you will notice, though, it's not going to feel particularly cold, we will have our air source coming in off the atlantic from a west or a south—westerly direction most of the time. so that means around average temperatures through the day. and at night, it should keep the frost and fog at bay. so for tuesday, it's going to be a bright, sunny start across many central and eastern areas, but plenty of showers across to the west will tend to work their way through, and they'll be blown in on a strong wind. so they'll move through quite quickly despite them being quite heavy in places. like i said, with thunder and hail. and the winds will be gusty,

very squally, 40—50mph in places, so the showers won't be with you for long. temperature—wise, highs of 16 or 17 degrees, generally the low—to—mid teens further north, particularly where you hold on to frequent showers. as we head through tuesday night, it looks like those showers, blustery, continue across northern and western areas, central and eastern areas may tend to turn drier, in fact, with clear skies. most temperatures no lower than around 7—10 degrees. for wednesday then, low pressure still with us just to the north of the uk, tightly packed isoba rs, so another windy day, and these weather fronts producing bands of showers. there will be one heading into parts of england and wales, i think, through wednesday morning. so we'll see an enhancement of showers across western areas through the morning into the afternoon. there could be a cluster of some heavy, maybe thundery ones pushing across south wales and southern england. again, further north, closer to that area of low pressure, this is where we'll see most of the showers

across western scotland. temperatures on wednesday probably a notch down on tuesday's values. on into thursday, low pressure again to the north of the uk, it's going to be another pretty windy day. bands of showers moving from west to east, most of them again across the north and the west of the country. eastern areas may tend to stay dry with some showers arriving through the afternoon later on. temperatures again 13—16, maybe 17 degrees in the south—east. and it remains unsettled from thursday onwards, you can see sunshine and showers, those temperatures around the seasonal average, and it remains windy as well.
