protester was shot with live ammunition and is still recovering from those injuries as this escalates in hong kong. this is what is happening at the moment. you can see a very heavy police presence in the central business district. let's ta ke the central business district. let's take a look at some of the stories the media is focused on today. we start with the telegraph who say uk prime minister borisjohnson will promise a "clean energy revolution" as one of the prizes of brexit. he also said a conservative government would spearhead the drive to tackle climate change. meanwhile, the mirror leads with a pledge from the labour party to spend £26 billion on the nhs in order to "repair the damage" they say, following a decade of tory austerity inflicted on the uk health service. on the bbc news website, there is "little sign of change" in women being under—represented

in topjobs in business, a government—backed review has found. in the ftse 350, only 25 women are in chair roles, with even fewer chief executives. the guardian business pages report that landsec, the property company which owns shopping centres such and westgate oxford and bluewater in kent, has slumped to a first—half loss after being hit by store closures as retailers battle weak consumer spending and a shift to online shopping. and finally, are you among the thousand people in the uk still watching tv in black and white? more than 50 years after tv was first aired in colour, more than 6,500 homes are still registered and watching television under a mono license. which of course, is a lot cheaper. anyway. with me is kathleen brooks, who's director of the financial analysis consultancy, minerva analysis. let's get started. brexit will start a green revolution. that is what

we're going to hear today from boris johnson? we're going to hear today from boris johnson? don't think brexit means the uk will be greener, just that it will free up policy—making time and potentially money to be directed into greener energy. what's interesting, you did mention earlier that tesla has decided berlin will be the place to build its electric ca i’s be the place to build its electric cars in europe. so the uk has missed out on that. but there are other things that we do have that the tory party conference earlier this year — mrjohnson did announce we will develop the world's first nuclear fusion plan. so there are green things going on. and unemployment is starting to rise a bit and the number ofjobs starting to rise a bit and the number of jobs created, this starting to rise a bit and the number ofjobs created, this could bea number ofjobs created, this could be a way to boost employment and feel those high skilled, high wage jobs we need. in this kind of headline is just the jobs we need. in this kind of headline isjust the kind of headline, if you are running the election campaign for borisjohnson,

for the conservatives, it's a great headline, isn't it? because there is so headline, isn't it? because there is so much a real concern in the uk in countries across the world about climate change and about that issue. and what a government is doing about this? yeah, exactly, you are right. the greta thunberg generation might be inspired and think maybe boris johnson isn't that bad if he is going to be the green energy thing on the front. it softens that brexit message which has been quite harsh and negative by using something positive. this is in contrast to the queen's speech, which was criticised because it didn't have enough in there to tackle climate change. there was a lot about brexit and law and order and immigration in the queen's speech. so this is potentially for many years in the future when borisjohnson might not be prime minister. let's take a look

at the daily. the are labour party is really gunning for the nhs. £20 billion to repair the damage of tory austerity. i would say at least, because it doesn't include the extras. we don't have any ma nifestoes extras. we don't have any manifestoes yet or pledges. but funding is going to be a big thing with the tories attacking labour about how they are going to fund this. sajid javid has had a lot already. so how they say this is affordable is by reversing the corporation tax rate tax code, bringing it back to 20% and taxing the rich more. so that is quite a fungible throw it out there, everything seems to be taxed by putting more taxes on the roots at this stage. but some points are good. —— on the ridge. more training forgps, good. —— on the ridge. more training for gps, upgrades to gp surgeries, where this ten point plan falls down a little bit is we need more

diagnostics and radiologists in the uk. surely a diagnostics and radiologists in the uk. surelya bit diagnostics and radiologists in the uk. surely a bit more ai could reduce the need for some of that high—tech? it will be interesting. these pledges probably need to be a bit more research and it is easier to put ten points down, right? the lib dems, their headlines having changed very much. there hasn't been a standout lib dem headline in this run—up, pledging £5 billion to flood prevention and jo swinson, in amongst those really struggling but alsojeremy corbyn, to be fair, yesterday, struggling with this terrible flooding seen in north england. this story on bbc online, little sign of change in women being underrepresented in top jobs. little sign of change in women being underrepresented in topjobs. this is in ftse 350 companies, compared to the ftse 100, we have seen is in ftse 350 companies, compared to the ftse100, we have seen a shift. we're talking chief executive roles, chair of the board, the c

suite positions. and quite interesting, other types, suite positions. and quite interesting, othertypes, in the smaller countries of the ftse 100 interesting, othertypes, in the smaller countries of the ftse100 we have seen some bigger changes. aberdeen, schroders, rbs, but when you go down to the smaller companies it falls short with some putting a token female or non—at all. ijoined a board this year and i have to say it is brilliant. women should go for it. it's good fun and it uses your skill set in a different way. there are skill set in a different way. there a re lots of skill set in a different way. there are lots of issues at play here. one of the issues is exactly what you have said, n, women not thinking of themselves as being worthy. in some cases. yeah, but also being the right candidate. go for it. some would say you don't lean in. sometimes you have to do. there is so sometimes you have to do. there is so much research on this. if you have more diverse boards, if you have more diverse boards, if you have a betterjudge under balance on

boards, it leads to better decision—making and profit —— better judgement and gender balance. it is very promising that ftse100 companies have started to make a change, and by next year there should be a third women on boards. are we going in the right direction? we are going on the right direction but it needs more time. the guardian has been talking about the problems on the high street, these out—of—town shopping malls, and again, it is having to rethink what would draw people in and keep them there as well. yes. that day out, that experience where everybody‘s boxes are ticked. thanks for the kids, restaurants, cinemas, shopping. say, a bluewater in kent hasn't exactly capped up, but they

also hit hard by chain stores closing down lie mothercare. cva has renegotiated wrens and is down 9% like for like —— rents. renegotiated wrens and is down 9% like for like -- rents. places like bond street, the centre of london, westfield, and also places like the lanes in brighton which ijust full of fantastic little independent shops where you find things you aren't going to find in the shopping mall or anywhere else. and it's having to rethink how high streets place themselves. they have do have a usp, don't they? a unique selling point? and brighton has always had that. it's a unique destination even if it isn't the top end. people talk

about hammers field... making it easier to park, cheaper to park, if you can't find somewhere to park, it isa you can't find somewhere to park, it is a real hassle from that perspective and you are put off. it's about online shopping from then on. black—and—white tv. about 6000 british people are watching tv in mono, or at least that is according to their license. what does that mean? are they pcs, desktops? should the bbc go after them? god knows. mean? are they pcs, desktops? should the bbc go after them? god knowslj don't think we have the time of the money to go after them. that is why there are so many out there. i'm glad there's a cheaper way to watch your favourite shows. at least people wouldn't be worrying about my outfit. some of them are vintage items, and that is kind of cool. it's been great to have you on the programme, kathleen, and thank you for your comments today.

hello once again. after so much wet weather in recent weeks, it looks as though wednesday for much of the british isles is going to start at least on a drier, brighter, colder note. although there's no disguising the fact there is in fact another set of fronts to bring some rain to western areas later in the day. but it's a cold, crisp start — a frosty one for many northern parts of the british isles. a run of showers over the north sea through south—west scotland to the north—west of england. but as you see, even on into the afternoon, many central and eastern areas will end up with a dry, sunny but not overly warm day. now, temperatures down into single figures. where we will see a significant change to the afternoon is rain getting into northern ireland, wales and the south—west of england. and just be advised that in the more intense burst over the moors to the south—west, and the brecon beacons you could well end up with a covering of snow. here we are on into thursday, that same band of weather still producing an awful lot of rain over the southern counties. and as the day progresses, so this more southern future isjoined by a more northern feature and that's the concern, because the rain looks set to return to some of the flood—affected areas. there are already met office

warnings out and available on our website. from thursday on into friday, the big area of low pressure, still close by over the near continent, and it's still a north to north—easterly feed off a cold north sea that will generate an awful lot of cloud across the greater part of england, wales and maybe the southern parts scotland, too. and enough about the cloud for there to be the odd bit and piece of rain. the best of the sunshine across much of northern and western scotland, through northern ireland, the western side of wales, maybe down into the west country as well. but again it is a cold — and underneath those weather fronts — a miserable, dank sort of day. here we are at the start of the weekend. what's changed ? really, not very much at all. the low pressure ever closer toward the south—eastern quarter, still the onshore feed into the eastern side of the british isles. there's still the suggestion of enough cloud for there to be bits and pieces of rain falling from that.

no great intensity but of course any rain into some areas is not very welcome at all. here we are as far ahead sunday, no signs of mild air creeping its way towards the british isles, so sunday is another dank, chilly sort of day. the best of the sunshine perhaps behind a more westerly feature here, out into parts of northern ireland, and still that stripe of thicker cloud all the way from the north—east of england, down through wales, the midlands and on towards the south—west. and again, single figures are the order of the day. so, further rain to come, some hail and snow, often windy and a bit cold, too.

good morning welcome to breakfast with dan walker and louise minchin. 0ur headlines today: a conservative majority would be "bad for the country" — the words of a former justice secretary as he launches an attack on his old party. soldiers are due to be deployed to yorkshire later as the prime minister announces more support for flood hit communities. decision day on what could be the first national postal strike in a decade. the high court will rule later if a royal mail walkout is legal. if it does go ahead, it could disrupt postal votes and christmas deliveries. england's family fallout. gareth southgate says the row
