tour. All that come, with the crucial Heineken cup scores and | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Britain's skeleton bob record-breaker. All of that after | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The Papers. Hello and welcome to our look at the | :00:00. | :00:21. | |
morning's papers. With me are the Weekend Editor of The Mirror, Alison | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
Phillips, and the broadcaster Alice Arnold. | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
25 leading charities have urged David Cameron to sign up to a UN | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
scheme to resettle Syrian refugees, the Independent says. The Mail says | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have set up companies to protect | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
their brands. The Mirror reports on the trial of the Coronation Street | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
actor Bill Roache. The Telegraph says Nick Clegg has warned David | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
Cameron to be "honest and up front" about plans to build two new garden | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
cities in Kent and Buckinghamshire. The Times reports claims that some | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
minority communities are operating their own justice systems, with | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
offences as serious as murder going unreported to police. And the | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
Guardian leads on the reforms to American surveillance announced by | :01:03. | :01:10. | |
President Obama. The financial Times has the same | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
lead story, saying that Obama was defiant about the surveillance. We | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
begin with the story that has been dominating news bulletins for the | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
last couple of days, which is the continuing search for three-year-old | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
Mikaeel Kool are, missing from his home in Edinburgh. -- Mikaeel Kular. | :01:29. | :01:35. | |
The Independent looks at the hundreds of volunteers who have | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
helped in the search. The Scottish edition of the Telegraph says that | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
police have admitted that Mikaeel could have been the victim of a | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
criminal act, and the Sun focuses on a possible sighting of the little | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
boy. Of course, hugely worrying when a little boy goes missing, but the | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
story has changed over the last 24 hours. Last night the police said | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
they did not believe there was any criminality but now that is a | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
distinct possibility. It changed during the day. They have the | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
sighting this morning but we never got any details of whether that was | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
him. There were things saying he was wearing a hat, and Mikaeel did not | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
like wearing hats, which most children don't, actually. We have | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
not heard that someone has come forward and said, actually that was | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
our child, but they seem to be playing less on that now and | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
suddenly the words "criminal act" have come in, which had not been | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
used until this evening. A very powerful photograph, with all the | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
people from the neighbourhood turning up to help look for him. It | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
has been amazing work by the community of people turning out. It | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
is only just above freezing. If that little boy is on his own wandering | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
around, lost or something terrible, that is a terrible thought. But at | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
the same time as the police are doing that search with local people, | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
they will obviously be looking at other avenues as to what may | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
possibly have happened to him. A number of people have spoken to the | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
media. Parents, saying, I want to be out here because I hope everyone | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
would do the same if it were my child. Her absolutely. They are | :03:23. | :03:31. | |
spreading across quite a wide area. One would think that immediate | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
search would be relevant if he had wandered off himself. It's something | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
else is happening, you may not be so near home. The police often know | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
things they are not able to let us know. They will be pursuing all | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
sorts of lines of enquiry that we are not necessarily aware of. There | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
have been a number of sightings, but none confirmed at this point. They | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
will be interviewing members of the family, going through his usual | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
routines, all sorts of things we are not aware of. We also found out | :04:03. | :04:09. | |
today that he has not been to his nursery since Christmas, so has not | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
been seen by people who would ordinarily see him. There is clearly | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
a lot to be looked at. In the meantime, it is incredibly | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
heartening, because these people going out trying to look for him, | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
they just want him home safe. And as you say, the weather is really tough | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
up there. It was hard work. Let's move on and look at the Times. The | :04:34. | :04:40. | |
story is that police are worried that certain communities across the | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
country are taking the law into their own hands. Some very serious | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
crimes, even murder, are going unreported. What is the suggestion, | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
that they do not trust the police, or that there is their own form of | :04:55. | :05:00. | |
justice? This is the Chief Inspector of Constabulary who has said he | :05:01. | :05:02. | |
believes there are large communities of people. He uses the quote "that | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
may have been born under different skies" . They have their own forms | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
of justice and things, as you say, as serious as murder. This is how | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
problems are being resolved and there are some areas where police | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
are never called. However, it must be said that the police are | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
disputing this. The Chief Constable of the West Midlands says he does | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
not believe this to be the case. How much of it is anecdotal, we are not | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
certain. You would imagine the Chief Inspector of Constabulary would not | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
say this lightly and would have had a look at some figures. One would | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
have thought, and it compares the situation to West Belfast at the | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
height of the troubles. They had different skies in Belfast, cloudy | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
ones, slightly different to ours, where the IRA to justice into their | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
own hands. Lots of paramilitary groups did. They sorted things out | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
within their own communities. The intimation is that the sort of | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
crimes they may be talking about would be things like honour | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
killings, domestic abuse, assaults on children and female genital | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
mutilation. That is what Mr Windsor has said. He said honour killings | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
would be the most extreme case, but those are the sort of things he is | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
killing about. Not mass civil unrest, and police not daring to go | :06:30. | :06:38. | |
into areas. There is an issue about whether police should only be | :06:39. | :06:41. | |
invited in to investigate when they have a report of a crime. You would | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
hope that police operate in such a way that they are part of local | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
communities and they know the kind of things that are going on before | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
having to wait for the 999 calls. That is what the police would want | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
us to know they are doing. If I see police officers about it is in the | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
daytime and they are often community support officers checking that | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
everyone is fine. Now, because there are Sony targets in policing, it is | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
probably a lot easier, if you are looking at your clear up rate, to | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
wait until something is reported and then clear it up. If it is never | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
reported, it is not your problem. If the police are not called, we do not | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
go. That is not what we thought would be going on. Last week there | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
was an article in the Independent saying that two out of five race | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
hate crimes were not being reported. Partly because people don't believe | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
they will be investigated properly. How can they be investigated if they | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
are not being reported? Very difficult. There is no suggestion | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
that there are reprisals taking place, home-grown justice being | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
meted out. I think he is saying that they are dealing with handing out | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
justice. I do not know if it is anything as official as courts, or | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
if it is on an ad hoc basis. They did talk about sharia courts. They | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
say there is a re-emergence of a failure to report crimes. | :08:16. | :08:23. | |
Interesting language. In those cases, I think they would be talking | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
about a justice system of a sort, outside our justice system. It is | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
not clear the degree to which this is going on. I can't believe it is | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
particularly great, when you think of a number of crimes reported to | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
police every day, I don't believe this is a large number of incidents. | :08:42. | :08:47. | |
It is his first annual assessment of the state of policing, due to be | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
published in a couple of weeks. Let's move on to the Daily | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
Telegraph, not the Scottish version, which is leading on the search for | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
the missing three-year-old. A different edition for other parts of | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
the country. The story we are going to look at is Miliband's threat | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
wipes Williams off state banks. This was the promise, or threat, from Ed | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
Miliband to bring a day of reckoning on the banking sector to create | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
greater competition, introduce so-called challenger banks, which | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
would hopefully take some of the business away from the Big Five. It | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
had an effect that maybe he was not anticipating, in that the share | :09:30. | :09:33. | |
price of RBS and Lloyds has gone down somewhat. He wiped ?2 billion | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
of the energy companies when he said he would freeze energy prices. That | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
is 3 billion in total off the economy as a whole. Obviously, the 1 | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
billion is our money, because we are in those banks. Whether it is a | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
gaffe or not, there was a lot of criticism about what he said, that | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
he did not have the big idea for the economy, and that his speech lacked | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
originality and creativity in actually solving our problems. Not a | :10:06. | :10:14. | |
bad idea, I don't think. They are an easy target. I think people do | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
think, stick it to the banks. Actually, ordinary people have been | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
turned over by the energy companies and by the banks. Small businesses | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
cannot get money off banks because they do not want to lend to them. | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
Before he made the speech, the governor of the Bank of England was | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
saying this would not increase competition but would just have the | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
banks getting rid of customers they don't think are a good bet. He has | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
said that, but that does not necessarily mean it is true. What is | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
interesting is that finally we have got somebody looking at it from the | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
consumer side. Yes, they have taken a hit today but I can't believe they | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
won't recover at some point in the future. They will not be ?1 billion | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
down forever. But we do want to try to sell these hangs off eventually. | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
There is this problem with breaking the bank 's up into smaller things, | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
one reason they can get money cheaply is because they are big. It | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
is like the big supermarket and the corner shop. If you are saying, we | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
will ban the big supermarket and it will be all corner shops, we might | :11:23. | :11:25. | |
all suffer because interest rates would go up, and that would be a | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
problem. You need a balance between corner shops and big supermarkets. | :11:30. | :11:36. | |
But primarily, they think about their own profits, the big | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
supermarkets, and the big banks, who have abused the trust of the public | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
and should be held to account. In the Telegraph, terror suspects given | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
lifetime anonymity am saying that Britain's most dangerous terrorism | :11:49. | :11:53. | |
suspects are being freed from court controls and allowed to live | :11:54. | :11:55. | |
anonymously to protect their human rights. If they've served their | :11:56. | :12:04. | |
time, shouldn't they be able to get on with their lives? They have been | :12:05. | :12:07. | |
observed for a two-year time limit. Obviously they've been observed. If | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
they have done anything they could have been arrested for in that time, | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
they would have been arrested. They haven't done anything, so one would | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
assume then - what other choice is there? You keep people on permanent | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
surveillance. It is a tricky area. There has been huge outrage about | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
the vast cost of carrying this out. But like you say, technically in the | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
eyes of the law they are innocent. So, what can be done, really? And | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
they couldn't live under their own identities very easily, could they? | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
It is like a number of offenders who are released into the community, | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
live can be very difficult for them. Some people might say quite rightly. | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
If they were suspects for that length of time, no smoke without | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
fire. And they didn't just follow these people willy-nilly. They had | :12:56. | :12:58. | |
real concerns about them, however, still, despite that... But they want | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
charge them. So real concern, and being able to charge someone, if you | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
can't charge them, then... Let's manufacture on and look at the Daily | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
Mail. Kate and Wills Inc. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge who have | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
secretly, not so secret now, have set up companies to protect their | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
brand just like the Beck hams. Aren't the royals meant to be above | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
this kind of thing? I wonder if Kate have seen those dreadful dolls | :13:26. | :13:30. | |
people keep making of her with the hair and she thought that's enough | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
we ought to control our brand. It is being portrayed here they are doing | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
it to make money, whether they are I'm not sure, maybe they are doing | :13:40. | :13:44. | |
it to safeguard themselves. Are we talking mugs in essence? Mugs, tea | :13:45. | :13:52. | |
towels. Surely they are not going to be able it stop all the other. It | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
would mean litigation, it would mean they have to sue companies who use | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
their image. We know the Royal Family don't like going to court | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
over stuff, it is odd. I know, I knted imagine them stopping. But if | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
it was done in such a which that was unpleasant or wrong, it gives them | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
grounds to do something. Well, there you go. That's what they are doing. | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
We've all got a brand these days, haven't we? That's the papers, we | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
will be back with our own special brand with Alice and Alison at | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
11.30pm to take another look at the front pages. Stay with us on BBC | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
News, at 11.00pm, the search for three-year-old, Mikaeel Kular, | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
police say he may have disappeared following a criminal act. Coming up | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
next, time for Sports Day. | :14:39. | :14:45. |
