Just after midnight, a week before the carnage on London Bridge and borough market, the three attackers are outside the Ummah Fitness Centre in east london. Its a place they know well. Good evening. The race to become khuram butt, the ringleader, the new conservative leader and our next Prime Minister has worked in the Ummah Fitness Centre for months, and all three become even more heated today. Jeremy hunt has described his are thought to have trained there. Rival borisjohnson as but the owner of this gym, a coward for not agreeing to take sajeel shahid, repeatedly refused to be interviewed by police part in live debates. In the aftermath of the attacks, the two men were meant to go head despite the fact that he had another to head on sky tomorrow connection to butt as well. But the broadcaster says it mr shahid founded this will cancel the event unless both men appear. Islamic school nearby, heres our deputy politcal where butt taught the koran editorjohn pienaar. To children aged solid, steady, if only borisjohnson between three and seven. Could always appear in friendly and analysis of the attackers photos with the partner he rowed phones showed dozens of calls with the other day until and hundreds of texts between butt an unfriendly member called the police and then press. And mrshahid. Always get headlines today in court, though, like this in the mail online, he gave his side of the story. Dominic adamson represents one but he cant and the pressures on to face tough questions about the real borisjohnson. Of the bereaved families and said. Come on board. Taking the helm today, the high vizjacket and the hard hat tells you hes campaigning. Mr shahid, whose face we cant show jeremy hunts the underdog in the race to be pm, but he is the one hogging for legal reasons, said. The cameras because so far, borisjohnson has been so wary of facing awkward questions, mr hunts seizing his chance to say hes running scared of the media and his own party. Conservative Party Members think that they are being taken for granted and i think its very disrespectful to them. If you want to be Prime Minister mr shahid said that his colleagues of this country, theres going to be at the gym also used his phone, more scrutiny than you can ever, and any communications with butt ever imagine and a little bit on it would have been of friendly debate with the friendly about his work there. Foreign secretary isnt going to do he was asked whether hed hand it over to police for examination, anyone any harm. The candidates to be our next but so far he has declined. Prime minister have police say they found no other links policies to explain. Between mr shahid and the attackers both contenders say theyll after the carnage two years ago, try to negotiate a brexit and in court today he condemned it, deal mps would back. Saying if hed known borisjohnson said he would take what they were up to, hed have called the police. Britain out with or without a deal on the 31st october. Jeremy hunt said he would leave how do we curb the extraordinary with no deal if he had to, but hed take longer to try power of the tech giants . Its the question of our age. And strike a deal, he wont say how long. In recent years facebook, both men say the so called in particular, has been irish backstop must go. Criticised over privacy, harmful content and it could tie the uk to eu rules the way data is used. And standards to avoid stops today the former lib dem leader sir nick clegg, and checks on the irish border. Who now works for the company, mrjohnson says he would accepted there was what he called find a way to scrap it. A pressing need for new rules to govern the industry. Mr hunt wants to send a new negotiating team to brussels. Hes says that facebook but it has become clear will create an Oversight Board that if renegotiating to adjudicate on these matters. A brexit dealfails, our media editor, amol rajan, the commons could well vote to bring down a new Prime Minister or his government rather than let looks at whether it will work. Britain leave without one. Tory mps and ministers what kind of internet do you want . Are ready to rebel. The one most of us experience today, are the numbers there to stop a no deal on the 31st october, a largely californian world maybe using a vote of no confidence dominated by a few tech giants . Or in the government . I believe that the more authoritarian approach of absolutely is the case. I think a dozen or so members china which has its own tech giants. Of parliament on our side would be facebook answer nick clegg are voting against supporting betting that the next and best of no deal. That would include ministers, internet is more regulated. And more as well as backbenchers. European. His first speech was in mrjohnson is seen as a political brussels in january. European. His first speech was in winner, its the key to his status brussels injanuary. Today he in as favourite to succeed mrs may berlin. This morning he strongly and now a prominent supporter has refuted claims that as with conceded its outweighed very real questions. Boris johnson will have his own americas president ial election, facebook was abused by foreign risks that others will not have. Actors during the brexit referendum now, i totally understand that campaign. We have shared all of this people can look at, you know, information with a select committee in westminster and elsewhere and its a matter of public record, have found no evidence of a aspects of Boris Johnsons significant attempt by outside forces. Theres a lot of weight on character or his judgment. The word significant. Facebook dont we have to put a premium a lwa ys the word significant. Facebook dont always know everything about who is on firstly winning elections, advertising on their platform. The and also delivering things most striking claim today is that for people who vote for us. I understand ministers and mps have been meeting facebook actively seeks regulation regularly in secret, in areas such as privacy, election exchanging messages online by whatsapp. Advertising and hate speech. sympathetic cabinet ministers have in areas such as privacy, election advertising and hate speech. I dont think its right for private been keeping in touch. Companies to set the rules of the they are hoping the mere threat of a defeat might force road for something which is as a Prime Minister to think again. Either candidate could face this profoundly important as how threat if they pursue technology serves society. In the a no deal brexit. End, this is not something that big but the danger may be greatest for Boris Johnson, Tech Companies in the nite estates who is also facing questions or elsewhere can or should do on about his character and judgment. Who will win the of their own. Sceptics will argue race to number 10 . Facebook is trying to pre empt thats still to be decided. Whats plain is it will be tough, Global Regulation before its very tough, for whoever gets political enemies demanded is broken to call this place home. Up. While the idea of an Oversight Board is intriguing, its not at all clear how it will deal with a potentially vast number of complaints, or maintain its with me is the political commentator and former president independence. Sir nick said the company has substantially reduced the number of pictures of self harm of the Polling Organisation yougov on instagram, following the death of peter kellner. 14 year old molly russell. Her also, im joined on webcam father said his daughter took her life after exposure to such pictures. The talk today was of a by the former director tech clash, a backlash against california tech giants which Facebook Says has gone too far. Of Corporate Communications others think it hasnt gone far at number ten james humphreys. os enough. Let us not become peter, if you are advising jeremy complacent. This is not over yet. We huntand peter, if you are advising jeremy hunt and Boris Johnson, have a lot of work to do as peter, if you are advising jeremy hunt and borisjohnson, would your strategy be, as we are seeing, for borisjohnson to lie low and hope citizens, as human beings and as that everyone votes for you and your democratic societies, to harness and jeremy hunt to get out and make his case and actually challenge his outlaw the idea that our private opponent a bit. Jeremy hunts task experience can be there material for is quite simple to define. He is way a new kind of capitalism that is all behind. A poll of Party Members last about us but is not for us. With week should Boris Johnson behind. A poll of Party Members last week should borisjohnson leading jeremy hunt by three to one. If hunt almost half of humanity not yet online, facebook and sir nick want is going to overcome that, he cant to shape the future of the internet before china does. Outflank Boris Johnson on ive been speaking to is going to overcome that, he cant outflank borisjohnson on brexit, he damian collins, chair has to attack borisjohnsons of the digital, culture, media and Sport Committee who led an enquiry into credibility, his character, his facebook earlier this year. He teld me scrutiny must come suitability to be Prime Minister. Hunts only hope is to destroy boris from an outside regulatory body. Johnsons reputation. As for Boris Johnson, he has to make a fine judgment because clearly the attacks i welcome any move facebook would ta ke to i welcome any move facebook would take to try to bring more scrutiny on him being a coward for invading to their practices. But this has to be done by an outside body that is forensic examination byjournalists, independent of facebook and with the forensic examination byjournalists, for evading Television Debates with legal powers to launch his rival, just doing this slightly investigations into the company when things go wrong. Otherwise we are in soft members gatherings where he a position where we are largely doesnt even appear directly with reliant on facebook deciding what it will share with us, and if there are his opponent, that looks bad, but if he does appear, there is a risk. Independent investigations, seeking to frame the remit of those there is a risk you might be taken investigations. If anyone will have apart on his plans for brexit, he confidence in this process we need a might face uncomfortable questions proper regulator, just as we have in about his temperament and his broadcasting with ofcom, a proper character, so at the moment, the regulator with teeth that can judgment is it is better to investigate when things go wrong. Withstand the accusations of nick clegg also said today there was cowardice than to take the risk of no evidence of russian interference. Imploding ina i know you have posted on twitter cowardice than to take the risk of imploding in a debate or a forensic interview. And, james humphreys, we again refusing back. There is, are seeing a slight shift in the facebook themselves have told us in polls, apparently. One at the the past that they did find a small weekend said jeremy hunt would amount of evidence that russians try potentially do better than boris to buy adverts during the johnson in a general election. Would referendum. We know there was a you be looking at that and thinking substantial activity from russian to tory members and to the general news organisations during the public, we could be in a general referendum as well, which had a very election situation, jeremy hunt high shower voice. This is a pattern should try to build on that . Yes, of behaviour that has run through obviously it is actually helpful for the recent european elections, weve him. One of the effects we are seen it in america and around the seeing is that a lot of people didnt really know much about jeremy world. The russians and other bad actors around the world are hunt, so the more they are seeing of exploiting social media to spread him, you would expect him to lift a their messages and disrupt the politics in other countries, and it bit in the polls and he has had boost from the dense, to put it has only been through external mildly, that borisjohnson had last week. But i think in a way, the investigations, parliamentary inquiries, investigative journalists, that we have got to polling that peter referred to, it know anything about this. Facebook looks like a large number of have been entirely reactive times conservative members have already failing to acknowledge the scale of made up their minds and they have the problem. Can you explain how you made up their minds and they have made up their minds and they have made up their mind to support Boris Johnson and they are unlikely to think the regulation should operate . Change that now. Even if what they do you think breaking up these big tech giants would help . In terms of are seeing is to perhaps others are regulation we need to establish in not the most attractive side of law that companies have a clear duty borisjohnson, it may well not of care to users, and that means change their mind because they will be reading these events differently. Acting against known sources of sol be reading these events differently. So i think we would still at this harmful and illegal content. We point, however welljeremy so i think we would still at this point, however well jeremy hunt so i think we would still at this point, however welljeremy hunt is should create an independent doing in his campaign, we would regulatory body, or give ofcom the still be expecting boris to be task of assessing whether companies successful. Perhaps what hes doing are being effective enough at taking is storing up trouble ahead because down this harmful and illegal of the difficulties that he has got, content. Down this harmful and illegal co nte nt. If down this harmful and illegal content. If they dont, they should have the power, just as they do with to be seen to be running scared now, running scared, if you like, from Data Protection issues, they should the British Public is not a good have the power to Fine Companies and start for a new Prime Minister. In run investigations to understand terms of the private life question, what has gone wrong. From your long experience looking at lets take a look at some of the other main stories polls, how much does the public care this hour on bbc news. The number of cases uncovered about that and is that different for by a maternity review at hospitals the tory membership who have evoked . In shropshire has more than doubled. An investigation by nhs improvement to day care even less . Idol think found more than 300 new cases of concern at the shrewsbury and Telford Hospitals nhs trust. The private lives of politicians in theyre in addition to more than 250 themselves matter at all that we cases already under investigation by the independent maternity review.
