hello. this is bbc news, i'm lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. a man has appeared in court in the us, afterfive people were stabbed at the home of a rabbi, in new york state — the governor calls it "domestic terrorism". the mayor of sydney says the new year fireworks display will go ahead as planned — despite a petition calling

for it to be cancelled out of respect for those affected by the ravaging bushfires. the lawyer of a british woman — whose husband and two children drowned in a swimming pool in a spanish resort on christmas eve — has said she may pursue an independent investigation. in an effort to ease pressure on hospitals and doctors‘ surgeries, the nhs has trained paramedics who can prescribe medicine. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are robert fox — the defence editor of the evening standard, and ruth lea — economic adviser at arbuthnot banking.

it's great you're both here with us tonight. i look through the front pages. the ft is up first. an emotional reunion for a mother and son on the front of the financial times, which says a prisoner swap between ukraine and russian rebels raises hopes for a final truce. the new year's honours data leak which saw the addresses of around 1000 people — including high profile celebrities — being published online could cost tens of millions of pounds — that's according to the i. the daily mail investigate what they call a £10 billion rogue pensions scandal, saying thousands have lost their nest eggs in schemes sanctioned by the government. another pension story in the daily express, albeit more positive. the paper says that thanks to the re—election of borisjohnson as prime minister that retirement funds will boom. sent far from home — the guardian claim critically ill

children are being rushed from one part of england to another because nhs hospitals are running short of beds. 0k, ok, so let's start off with the independent and those attacks in new york state. ruth, do you want to kick as off? it does seem anti—semitism is, iwas kick as off? it does seem anti—semitism is, i was going to say, all too prevalent in the states, as it has been in this country. i suppose we moan about the anti—semitism in this country not least of all because of the debates over the general election coverage and prior to that, when you heard all about the anti—semitic abuse that was held at luciana berger and louise ellman and margaret hodge and otherjewish mps, and i wouldn't like, i don't know a great deal about the states that i do know what happens in this country and it doesn't strike me that the corbynista anti—semitism really is an absolute canker, or cancer, and

it seems they are aggressive —— their aggressive anti—israel stance, they don't seem to think israel has no legitimacy to exist at all spills into anti—semitism and there seems to be as yet no desire or wheel or drive to do anything about it. it will be very interesting to see if and when labour gets a new leader whether they will actually start tackling anti—semitism in this country. you were coming onto the new leader, labour leader, further on in our paper discussion but robert, what do you make of the story? it's interesting listening to reports throughout the day, including from witnesses at this scene, that as ruth was saying it does seem to be on the rise. president trump has anticipated and is really worried about it and us not only tweeted his looking at regulation and even legislation, rememberthere were regulation and even legislation, remember there were also that the jewish lobby, quite legitimately, have been strong supporters of

whatever political stripe, of presidential candidates, it's a lobby they can't afford to ignore. going back to this particular case, i find fascinating two people severely wounded, i am full of admiration for the presence of mind of people who shut doors on the synagogue, through furniture at the attacker, the alleged attacker as we i'iow attacker, the alleged attacker as we now have to call him because he is up now have to call him because he is up in court and pleaded not guilty, but by some very, very quick thinking and proactive, some celebrants thinking and proactive, some celebra nts at thinking and proactive, some celebrants at this chanukah ceremony really managed to avoid the worst —— this chanukah ceremony. thank god so far they have been no fatalities. what is worrying and this is deep rooted is why there is the general trend of anti—semitism in places

that have revoked their anti—semitic past, places like italy, spain and france, which had a very large jewish population, it's very present there and we both come from north london, i come from north london and for me it's chilling to have swastikas and the door brings. to me, it's too easy to say it's mindless. it's what kind of mind does this, which work must be worrying. it's worrying, as ruth rightly says, it's not going away, it's increasing. it isn't and we saw the graffiti in belsize park, i thought it was appalling, shocking, andi thought it was appalling, shocking, and i live in finchley. what do you make of the time it took for president trump to actually make comments on this and condemn the attacks? when you look at his twitter feed it was only some three hours ago. he probably had to assess the situation, to be fair to him. he has been strongly supportive. he has

members of his administration, mike pompeo, belong to an evangelical wing which supports israel. it's so easy, isn't it, the season of goodwill, to blame trump for everything. his —— he is at mara largo, he's doing other things. everything. his —— he is at mara largo, he's doing otherthings. he hasn't missed a spoken on this, he spoken rather well in fact. let's move to the front page of the guardian and sick children are fed sent farfrom home guardian and sick children are fed sent far from home in guardian and sick children are fed sent farfrom home in on nhs beds crisis. i was just sent farfrom home in on nhs beds crisis. i wasjust going to say, this story is critically ill children are being rushed from one pa rt children are being rushed from one part of england to another because nhs hospitals are running short of intensive care beds in which to treat them. of course, it's winter, so treat them. of course, it's winter, so they have the usual winter infections. i think i read another story today about some elderly people who have been shipped around the country because of the shortage

of beds. well, tragically this is pigeons coming home to roost. i remember talking to some doctors 15 oi’ remember talking to some doctors 15 or 20 years ago and they were talking about the new hospital is being built and all the hot new hospitals that were replacing the old hospitals have fewer beds. the idea is you needed less time to recuperate in hospital and you get pushed out, but the truth is with a rising population and rising elderly population in particular this is very, very short—sighted. there is a lack of resources and a fundamental lack of resources and a fundamental lack of resources and a fundamental lack of resources. you can't turn around quickly for science in very good quotes here, really rather sad, i agree good quotes here, really rather sad, iagree an good quotes here, really rather sad, i agree an ageing population stop. the respondents to the guardian report, the doctors and nursing staff they've managed to contact, are shocked at the lack of provision of paediatric intensive care units where they have to share and share out. addenbrooke's and cambridge has been taking a lot of extra but the

numbers do seem really very, very small, particularly if you get strange weather or atmospheric conditions when you get a lot of smog or whatever and we do get smog again, we are under provided. there are not enough beds. there aren't enough beds, there are not enough nurses or skilled doctors, the article says. let's turn to the i in the sydney fireworks display. we are running out of time as we head to new year's eve and there is a row rumbling on. i'm afraid so. the mayor of sydney has said he is going ahead with the fireworks display and of course there have been a lot of protests. i don't know whether it's australian dollars which isn't quite the same thing quite yet as a pound, but it's 3.5 million australian dollars devoted to the fireworks display, one of the most spectacular new year's display. the first one.

and its very much also a kick the government time because there an almighty row about the prime minister scott morrison taking a holiday, as a lot of australia has been burning. but again, it seems to me that the point of the argument is the lack of resources. they haven't got the resources to put the fires out, so they are beginning to use this as a stick to beat the government, and of course it's part of the iconography, if i can put it like that, the images of the climate change row will stop this is what is running through it and its emotions and we've got to find out what is really going on, how much the fires can in any way be related to a romantic or environmental change. but it is a mighty big australian i’ow. but it is a mighty big australian row. fact though, the last six australian prime ministers have had

real problems with can ijust put it like this, the climate change row. it's a constant now of australian politics, so if it won't be, i'm sure the fireworks will go ahead. there are three factors you've mentioned two, one is a lack of resources and i read that in new south wales they'd actually cut back on some of the funding for fighting fires when we know there is a bushfire season in australia. it just seems that particularly bad this year. then there's the climate change thing which i'll come into in a minute, and there's land use. it could be they are using more of the aquifers and land is drying out. all these factors. the problem with the climate change thing is insofar as climate change thing is insofar as climate changes related to carbon dioxide emissions then what is australia's contribution to that? it's i%. if there's going to be a proper global approach, a proper global way of dealing with this it's

got to be done across the board and you've got to get people like, countries like china and india involved who are the big emitters. poor old australia is being bashed over the head for not doing enough of it but it's 1% of global emissions. let's turn back to the front of the guardian. yes. rebecca long—bailey has made her pitch for leadership. we've all been waiting to see who would be next. yes, she seems to be well and truly in the lead. someone was making a joke, they need someone with a northern accent, she's certainly got a northern accent and she comes from manchester. she says she was avoiding direct criticism of mr corbyn and is going to talk about progressive patriotism, whatever that might be. but she's going to make her pitch and we'll see what happens. in some ways she is seen as to some extent the inheritor of corbyn‘s crown, because she is obviously left—wing and the second thing is we know it's the membership

that does at the end of the day pick the leader of the labour party and it tends to be a very left wing membership, so she's in with a chance i think, that's the quickest way of putting it. robert, what do you think i the one thing andrew sparrow, who is a very seasoned political correspondent, i haven't read what's inside and apparently rebecca long—bailey has contributed either to an article or an article to launch her candidature in the guardian. asking the obvious question, the expression tony blair would have said, can you win an election? the combination, it would bea election? the combination, it would be a combination it looks like of rebecca long— bailey be a combination it looks like of rebecca long—bailey and angela rayner, i can't see them winning the middle ground. angelo is going up as her deputy. that's the pairing and that's what they've got to do and this is the thing that really does

come through. the bbc, i have to say, horribly brilliant dead ringers radio four have got it absolutely right, the corbynistas go and we won the argument but sorry, we happened to lose the vote. it's a hopeless line of argument and with this, that with the article i've seen of andrew sparrow, they've not got off that yet. do you think she could possibly address some of the points that was raised by tom watson, the hostility. the hostility and anti—semitism? we would hope so. it's a big one but she has to go through the corbyn praetorian guard, in a funny way she's been part of it. we don't think emily thornberry and clive lewis have much of a chance. no, no. because they put their names forward , because they put their names forward, haven't they? yes, who have we got, still waiting on, has keir starmer said yes or no? he is

seriously considering it, i think he said. he would get nowhere, i'm afraid. 0k. is there anybody who would? we'll discuss this in our next edition! there are a few names there, aren't they? dojoiners next edition! there are a few names there, aren't they? do joiners at 11:30pm for ourfinal there, aren't they? do joiners at 11:30pm for our final edition of the papers but this final edition this weekend edition before the new year as well, so in the meantime all the papers are online. next on bbc news hour click programme. enjoy. are you well? that was great. trying to give spencer direction. we just did a stagger through which is about three hours behind schedule. hopefully it's all going to work out in the end when we go live at five o'clock.

no pressure. fingers crossed it's all going to happen. i'm just changing bits, i hope he doesn't mind. like that? yeah. i just want these to be in. it was quite nerve racking at this point but i'm excited. there's a bit of a buzz, isn't there? been looking forward to it for weeks. why are you guys here tonight? i just want to learn, really, and see all the new stuff going on. theme music plays.

are you sure we shouldn't be there already? trust me, we're going to get there on time. but dundee's 500 miles away. the train‘s going to take hours, even a flight‘s going to take too long. there is no way... seriously, i had a word with a guy, he knows a guy and he said there's a shortcut. all we need to do is use this. you need to get out more. we just need to press start. goodness, spencer, are you 0k? yeah, just, just, just go with it. go with what? what the—? right, follow me. ok, this is weird. come on. are you sure this is the most direct route? pretty sure, yeah. can we at least stop and ask for directions? no need, i've got a map, it'll be fine. over here. er... um...

0h. oh, you had it upside down, didn't you? little bit, yeah. ok, this is more like it. dundee, we should only be a couple of blocks away now. blocks. nice, i see what you did there. yep, there it is. v&a dundee. here we come! announcer: from v&a dundee, this bbc click live. please welcome your hosts, lara lewington and spencer kelly. yes, it's that time of year again where we leave the comfort of the click offices and go live to the world, or at least to a crowd of very eager tech fans. v&a dundee was the spectacular location for a show that took

in everything from artificial intelligence to facial recognition. the museum not only celebrates the past but also looks to the future. most people's idea of robots are shaped by the robots they see in science so in a film or tv or video games or music. but robots are a bit more real than what we think. so most children now will now grow up with siri or alexa or some kind of smart helper in their life and i think in the future that's just going to increase. we're going to have more robotic helpers helping our children and helping us and increasingly more and more in an everyday basis. currently on display is the exhibition design between human and machine. so rather than robots coming in and replacing us and replacing our jobs, i think the future is a bit more of an optimistic one. we've got an amazing structure commission that's being specially built here for v&a dundee and this is all by the idea of humans and robots collaborating together to create something amazing

and wonderful and i think that's a bit more what the future will be like, so, slightly less pessimistic than what we imagine. in recent years, dundee has become something of a digital powerhouse. it's synonymous with video games like lemmings, grand theft auto and yes, minecraft. dundee has the honour, we believe, of being the city in the world with the highest per capita volume of games developers. that's come around for a number of reasons. it started off back in the 1980s, there was a lot of us programming away on sinclair spectrums that happened to be made in the city, so you could always pick one up ex—factory when they went slightly wrong for less than they cost in the shops. some amazing video games came out of the city at that point and that gave a lot of us

the inspiration to set our own companies up. the world's first video games degree was offered here by abertay university all the way back in 1997, so we thought we'd check out some of their more recent work. all in the name of social interaction, of course. why is abertay university so hot on gaming? at abertay, all the staff have either previously made video games or we currently make video games and we are all part of a research lab called abertay game lab that make really fun, experimental games that push the boundaries of computer gaming in different ways. so you've got some other students playing some other of your games over there. that game was created by dr mona bozdog who sloped on with lara. now, mona, there are a lot of different games here, all telling interesting, different stories. can you tell me a bit about what you've created here. yes, so, the game you see is called assembly. we're all in dundee and the year is 198! and there's thousands

of women in the timex factory assembling the first ever computers, so the 2x8! and the zx spectrum. these computers changed the face of games. that's basically a recreation of the assembly line. so we have the women workers trying to assemble the zx spectrum computers from populating the boards to actually packaging and shipping the zx spectrums. this is a actually a bit of social history here as well, isn't it? yes, it is. it is what we usually call herstories. because they're the alternative histories, they're the hidden figures of the video games industry and the video games history, and it was the women who assembled, they were tremendously skilled and they basically brought us the first computers. this eerie, stifling hot landscape looks otherworldly

robotic voice: speaking...at... professor annalu waller has dedicated 30 years of her life to researching technologies to improve communication for those who have difficulty speaking. it's very much like the predictive text on your phone, but, as we saw when we invited her onto the stage... robotic voice: words. ..it can be a very slow process. actually telling a story in real—time is laborious, time—consuming. a lot of our focussed communication aids only type 8—10 words a minute. how on earth do you conduct a real conversation in that speed?

annalu's team, in partnership with cambridge university, has created a new system that remembers what you've typed before and offers up whole sentence chunks in one go. it's hard to find whole sentences to use as i speak. so, as humans we always tell stories. so what i'm telling you now, i've told many people before. and this is where it gets even more clever. a body—worn camera observes where annalu is and who she's speaking to. it can then suggest sentences that are relevant to that situation. so, this is the computer vision brain behind our system. the camera i've got in my right hand here is the one the person wears around their neck, so the camera can see what they can see. and it can see the person, they are speaking to, so at the moment it sees me. and you can see on the screen it picks out my face to identify

whether i'm a known person, whether i'm a friend, and if it knows me, who i am. it takes a guess from the whole environment it can see to say where are we? are we in a cafe, at work? and this information we then use to predict the right sentences i might want to say in this environment with this communication partner. the more annalu uses it, the more it learns and the faster the system becomes. and the system might think we're in a museum, i'm talking to a person i've never met before. that might be an opportunity to talk about my work, so it will bring up sentences i've used before to talk about my work so i can access them timely. stories are really important because they provide the fundamental essence of being human. we are our stories. we are all very talkative people.

laughter i mean — i know people who repeat themselves over and over again. we all do! laughter i mean — i know people who repeat themselves over and over again. laughter we all do! laughter and applause three, two, one... push! back inside, and a click live show wouldn't be a click live show without waving, and generally getting a bit overexcited. all that remains is to thank everyone who turned up to see us live — and of course you at home — for watching. from all of us here at click, we hope you have a very happy new year. go, go, go! yes, yes, yes! theme music

good evening, it's been a dry, largely dry weekend. the sunshine made an appearance for some of us, this was the picture, blue skies above somerset a bit earlier on. in fa ct we above somerset a bit earlier on. in fact we saw temperatures as high as 16.8 celsius in the north—west of scotla nd 16.8 celsius in the north—west of scotland at 3am, that's down to this mild air that's firing from the south—west. it's not going to be dry across the board, we have some rain across the board, we have some rain across the board, we have some rain across the north west of scotland tonight, elsewhere a dry night to come. some clear spells to come, we could see temperatures a few degrees above freezing so perhaps a touch of frost for one or two spots in england and wales. it should be

frost free for scotland and northern ireland under the weather front that would bring some outbreaks of rain on monday but for most places it's looking dry, to a big area of pressure keeping the weather largely dry and subtle. the rain across the north—west of scotland will slowly push southwards, becoming quite light and patchy by the afternoon but a few showers for northern ireland, the scottish borders. much of england and wales looking dry all day. a bit of sunshine breaking through the cloud later on, lifting temperatures to around 11—12. into new year's eve on tuesday and it looks like another fine day. a bit ofa looks like another fine day. a bit of a murky start on the south where it will be quite cloudy. 0ne of a murky start on the south where it will be quite cloudy. one or two showers for the south—west of england, the channel isles for for instance. call for new year's eve, temperatures in single figures. if you have plans to head out into the evening towards midnight to celebrate the new year, well, it's looking largely dry and settled. for the firework displays, no sign of any strong winds or rainfall but what we could well see is a bit of

mist and fog, not particularly cold out there, temperatures about 4—9 during the evening but mostly dry for new year's eve, potentially some mist and fog patches around. high pressure stays with us as we see in the first day of 2020. the high pressure sitting across europe. a few more isobars on the map towards the north—west so a bit fresia for scotla nd the north—west so a bit fresia for scotland and northern ireland but light weddings elsewhere —— a bit breezy. there will be brightness breaking through the cloud later on. a fine day for the first day of 2020, new year's day. temperatures a bit cooler than they have been through the weekend, about 7—10 for most of us. it's looking largely dry and settled as we head towards the new year.

this is bbc news. i'm lukwesa burak. the headlines at 11:00: a man has appeared in court after 5 people were stabbed in new york state, during hanukkah celebrations at the home of an orthodox rabbi. the mayor of sydney says the new year fireworks display will go ahead as planned despite a petition calling for it to be cancelled out of respect for those affected by the bushfires. the lawyer of a british woman whose husband and two children drowned in a swimming pool in a spanish resort on christmas eve has said she may pursue

an independent investigation. we meet the uk's first paramedics trained to prescribe in an effort to ease pressure on the nhs.
