oxford and cambridge are entrenching privilege. of members of parliament, of newspaper editors, that make their way to oxford and cambridge. not the sons of plumbers and teachers and nurses. but oxford and cambridge say they are taking steps to widen access, both spending £5 million each year to reach more students and address inequalities. progress, they say, has already been made. i wouldn't necessarily say things are going wrong. we're actually making progress in some areas and if there is a poor student, so a student from a poor background, who applies to oxford and is getting three as or above they are more likely to get an offer from oxford than their more privileged peer group. cambridge university says poor results were the greatest barrier to disadvantaged students and its admissions were based on academic considerations alone. a lot of people i speak to are from, like, london, the south of england. i grew up on a council estate. i went to state schools — here i am. it's overwhelmingly white, that's what i'd say it is. tod

it is partly about racism and also economic background, oxford and cambridge and oxford in particularroadening the base of the applicants. successful applicants. and this is not representative of modern britain. well, it's not. young black people make up 3% of the population but only 1.5% of all offers from those universities were two black students with good a—levels. this comes on the back of the racial disparity audit that theresa may carried out which is adjusted young black male pupils we re adjusted young black male pupils were three times as likely to be excluded from school. a lot of work needs to be done. other figures show fewer black students are applying for these jobs because they look at oxford and cambridge and think that is not for them. finally. this is the new prime minister in new zealand. she's only 37 and she got thejob of leading her party in august. what is it with young new politicians? always good to see a woman in power, clearly, but equally it is interesting with my royal hat, this lady is a republican and she wa nts to this lady is a republican and she want

oxford and cambridge have too few students from the north of england. we'll hear about one way of solving the problem. and trevor noah gives us an outside perspective on the us. someone can get more offended that you're calling them a racist than at the fact that they are a racist. and that's become like a new thing that i've stumbled across. "how dare you call me a racist?" "well, how dare you be racist?" hello. so how is brexit going? looking at the outcome of the summit in brussels, and the fact that they're still not talking about the long—term brexit stuff, which is mostly trade, you could argue it is going off the rails. the eu is still holding out for more money, suggesting britain faces a ghastly choice between paying up and having a bad deal, or having no deal at all. but put on the happy glasses, you can look at it the other way — that there was a nuance shift in tone in brussels, a more constructive one. and at last, the other 27 have said they'll start preparing for talks on trade. good news or bad news? we're still too far from the end of t

with me is oliver cornock who is the editor—in—chief of the oxford business group. cadu see you.see you. we've spoken before about the risks facing britain if it crashes out of the eu without a deal —— good to see you. this time this is an official strategy for how to cope with that if it happens. it seems a bit more polished on theresa may's mantra, no deal‘s better than a bad deal. the trouble is we're getting more detail on what a bad deal might include and there's talks of queues at borders for travellers and goods, all these things that might be unresolved, coming to have a practical impact on daily life. part of me thinks theresa may is only doing herjob to start talking in real terms about this, at the same time there's infighting in her own party, still divided on the approach to brexit. all the opposition parties gunning for her, saying this is too dramatic, there's not a concealer retreat and of tone so a difficult position for her. —— conciliatory enough. she came out last week and said the ball is in her court and predictably they said the opposite. she has put out th
