In the financial times, European Unions highest court has ruled that the us car hailing app should be regulated like a traditional taxi Company Rather than a technology group. And finally on the daily express we are told that eating a portion of salad every day is linked to a slower rate of brain ageing and can improve memory in older people by as much as eleven years so lets begin. With me is priya lakhani, founder and ceo of century tech welcome back. Thank you. The lead story today and this resignation, a very important figure for theresa may and it seems that the light was moored damaging than the fact. He denies the allegation and denies he he ever viewed pornographic images in parliament and that is not the issue. I have heard lots about this over the last 12 hours and it is the life. That is what we are focused on. He denied he knew the police had raised this issue about the pornographic material on the computer. He denied it twice. The ministerial code has something applicable to ministers but anybody ina public applicable to ministers but anybody in a public appointment. Two principles are honesty and integrity and this is about honesty. This could be the Prime Ministers nightmare but it is simple in black and white. If youll deputy Prime Minister is this honest, than actually this decision is fairly easy. Is not honest. Actually this decision is fairly easy. Is not honest. He is the third minister in a few months to have left and very close to theresa may. The timing of this announcement is interesting. Even at the Daily Telegraph is saying she is ending the year with yet another crisis. This is a conservative leaning paper, some would say. And the apology from damian green seems a long way from an apology. He has apologised, obviously, which is important given everything on sexual harassment. He has apologised for any distress caused. This is about leadership and the fact that it is about dishonesty and behaving the way he did. In leadership sometimes things have to be black and white. The timing is unfortunate that this is about focusing on the issues at hand. All of this is noise. If they can remove people with poor judgement, lying about things, having meetings in israel you should not be having, if you could remove that and focus on what is going on, we need people in westminster who are honest and follow the seven principles. The sooner these things happen the better and we can focus on the issues like negotiations on the table. The Daily Telegraph article finishes with that line, david davies saying he would not walk out after threatening when the allegations first surfaced. Brexit talks ongoing and lots of people in the cabinet hoping for thejune to change when it comes to the government. The tune. In the arab news, kim salmon reaffirming the legitimate rights of the Palestinian People to establish an independent state within eastjerusalem and also this coming at the same time that the Un General Assembly meets. We mention in the introduction to this that any vote between the un members is not binding. No, it is not. This is an emergency meeting held after the us vetoed the Security Council resolution that affirmed that any decision on the state and jerusalem would be null and void. We have had President Trump been vocal saying that any country today vote against the us, he is threatening to cut off aid so countries like egypt cut off aid so countries like egypt. We have had a rather bolshie Us Ambassador saying he is going to report straight to President Trump who voted against the us. Jerusalem is at the heart of the us. Jerusalem is at the heart of the conflict between israel and palestine. President trump recognising jerusalem as the capital of israel and he will now move the embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem which is quite a statement and that is rocking the world in terms of what is get to happen here. The king has come out in support and this is what we expect from the various leaders. Lets move on quickly if we can, in thejapan times, it is not feel like much of a news story. Facebook is saying they plan to alert users if they appear in photo uploads at this as being in place since 2010 . When your photograph is pppin9 since 2010 . When your photograph is ppping up, since 2010 . When your photograph is popping up, that gained his attempt late, analyse the pixels in your face and compare that to any images that pop up and like any Good Technology company, there are huge advantages. They will describe pictures in far more detailfor advantages. They will describe pictures in far more detail for the visually impaired and this is incredibly important but there is a security issue. If someone is using your face as security issue. If someone is using yourface as their security issue. If someone is using your face as their profile, which they might want to do, they can alert you of this. There are positives around this but huge privacy issues. This is not gain to happen in the European Union or canada because of our privileges. Rule for one person but not all. Quickly, on the financial times, uber have lost that decision in the ecj, finding it is in fact a taxi firm and not a technology firm. Right decision . This is looking at companies. In innovative companies. In innovative companies. We looking at the industry is a arena and applying the rules of the industry to the tech firm . They rules of the industry to the tech firm . They have rules of the industry to the tech firm . They have control over the pricing of their drivers, what type of cars they use and they can appeal of cars they use and they can appeal of this. I mean, given ubers history in the last year, they have not had a brilliant year. We will see what happens. In terms of how uber react. We have to move on because apparently we should be eating more salad and greens because if we do we can delay ran ageing by up if we do we can delay ran ageing by up to eight years. It is in the daily express. I am interested in and this is all about slowing cognitive decline. If you eat salad and leafy greens it is saying you eat can absolutely affect you educational level through memory tests. The good news, christmas is coming and lots and lots of brussels sprouts. It well, it is not Rocket Science it is rocket salad thank you for watching. From us, goodbye. Hi there. The cold weather that we had during the first half of december is a long way behind us, and, really, for the run up to christmas, including Christmas Day, the weather looks pretty mild. At the moment weve got a weather front wiggling its way across central areas of the uk. Extensive cloud being wafted across the uk on westerly winds those winds are fairly light. And weve got some mist and fog patches around the coast and the hills across england and wales. Some patches of light rain and drizzle to start the day as well. A risk of that for northern ireland, for england and wales. Slightly drier weather for scotland although the far north again could see a bit of rain. So one way or another, as we start off thursday morning, its going to be a murky start to the day with fog around the coast of wales and south west england. Up over the hills of the downs and chiltons, a few patches of light rain or drizzle tending ease away quite quickly during thursday morning. Some damp weather as well, there or thereabouts in northern ireland. But further north in scotland, for many areas, its a dry and bright start to the day. High cloud in the sky and there should be some hazey sunshine coming through that across many areas. Through the rest of thursday, this wiggling weather front is going to push its way a little bit further northwards and eastwards. Its just going to stay cloudy for most of us. The cloud perhaps thinning a little bit through the afternoon, to allow brighter spells in the east. But always, the thicker cloud across wales, north west england, northern ireland, threatening some spots of rain. The brightest weather across scotland but this is where weve got the slightly cooler air. Temperatures 6 or 7 degrees in the north. Otherwise, for most of us, its a day of double figure temperatures. And those mild conditions continue through thursday night and on into the first part of friday morning. The cloud though is going to thicken up then through thursday night. With a bit of rain working in again across wales and southern counties of england, on into the midlands for a time, too. Cooler across the far north east of scotland. Then for friday, again, its a rather disappointingly cloudy kind of weather picture. Weather becomes drier and brighter for most of us through the afternoon. With a bit more in the way of wind blowing across the mountains of scotland, it is probably the eastern side of scotland that will have the best of any limited breaks in the cloud. For many of us its a mild one, though. Temperatures, what, 10, ii, 12 degrees celsius across western areas. That mild theme set to continue as we head into the weekend and indeed for Christmas Day, with the winds generally coming in from the west or the south west. To start off the weekend, again, its a lot of cloud around for most of us. Thick enough to give us a few spots of light rain across western coasts and hills. Perhaps something a little bit more wet across the north west of scotland. Slightly stronger winds, so again a better chance of seeing some cloud breaks for eastern scotland, running into Eastern England and then, right up to Christmas Day itself, it stays mild, but often cloudy perhaps a little bit brighter for most of us for Christmas Day itself. Hello, this is breakfast, with Naga Munchetty and charlie stayt. Damian green, one of theresa mays closest allies, has been sacked from the cabinet.
