have to finish his quarterfinal in Naples tomorrow `` Aaron Ramsey is | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
back after a three`month lay`off for Arsenal. | :00:00. | :00:16. | |
Welcome to look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
With us are they right are ample caster with a green highlighter | :00:24. | :00:29. | |
Penn, breaking with tradition, and with the blue highlighter pen, the | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
economics editor of the Independent. It is there a exciting! | :00:37. | :01:13. | |
There are claims that Maria Miller used threats to silence the | :01:14. | :01:22. | |
watchdog. The independent has more evidence of missing documents at | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
Scotland Yard. The Mail claims Chinese investors are pricing | :01:30. | :01:30. | |
home`buyers out of the market here. We will begin with the Guardian and | :01:31. | :01:43. | |
another warning about how bad things are in the NHS. Top doctors warning | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
on NHS overload. This is the president of the Royal Oak `` Royal | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
College of Music 's. `` College of physicians. It is a constant drip | :01:59. | :02:11. | |
feed. It is not reviving the patient. I feel this does not tell | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
us anything new. Another person saying we don't have enough money or | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
resources. This is talking about hospital resources. What successive | :02:27. | :02:37. | |
investigations have shown is this is a management problem. Frankly I | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
would not mind if I am not getting the best of everything, as long as | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
somebody is showing a duty of care and explaining what is wrong. And | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
what I might do. This is not dealing with a human interaction, which is | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
what has caused so much upset. People not looking after people, not | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
being fed. This is dealing with the medical side, the next step. I feel | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
we are constantly missing the point, which is that all of this comes down | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
to management. In Mid Staffordshire, one part of the hospital was a | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
disgrace and another part was functioning quite well. This | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
morning, I have forgotten who was saying it but they were saying you | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
can have two awards next to each other, dealing with the same type of | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
patient, one which does brilliantly and one which does badly. `` two | :03:30. | :03:39. | |
wards. We have to stop finger pointing and find solutions. Is it | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
about how they are deployed and the expectations made? There are big | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
management problems in the NHS but the story is still significant | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
because David Cameron made such a big thing about protecting the NHS | :03:56. | :04:04. | |
and the quality of services. He nominally rejected it in real terms, | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
spending due to go up every year, rather frozen every year, unlike | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
every other department. If senior doctors are saying there is a | :04:14. | :04:19. | |
funding problem, regardless of the points you make, it is difficult for | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
a Conservative government which has said it has pledged to protect | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
quality of the services, if they are not protected in that manner, it is | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
difficult for the Prime Minister and the government. Is it a case of the | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
hospital is doing well needing to show the others how to do it? I | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
suppose it is. What confuses me is it is a litany of complaints and | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
excuses. What I am not getting, beyond give us more money, is the | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
solution. This debate has been going on for so long, if you are a health | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
correspondent, you should be trying to find the solutions. Where is this | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
overload of distress, from the users of the NHS and the suppliers? Where | :05:03. | :05:10. | |
is it going to end? How and where do we intervene to make it happen? My | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
complaint is that for a front`page story, it is just yet another | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
whinge. Isn't it the case that has always been a desire form of funding | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
in the NHS? It is a bottomless pit if you let it be. It is. He makes | :05:27. | :05:35. | |
the point about elderly patients. We are an ageing society. I think that | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
is part of the problem. It is not all is the best solution for people | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
to be in hospital, then it's been more treatment in local health | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
centres `` there needs to be more treatment. It goes back to the | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
question of management. Are there other alternatives where they could | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
be better cared for and hospital doctors would not have to be looking | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
after 70 at a time which is the complaint he makes, running around | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
like a scalded cat, as he describes it. I think it is a valid issue to | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
raise and I agree it is only a part of the problem, describing one | :06:13. | :06:20. | |
aspect of the problem. At the heart of my complaint is that where there | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
are convex problems, there are so many components of every problem. I | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
kind of want our newspapers to start linking and joining up the dots for | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
us, if those at the heart of it cannot. Maria Miller is on the front | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
page of many of the newspapers tonight, one of them being the | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
times. The minister used threats to try to silence the expenses | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
watchdog. The newspapers are not letting this go. No, and you can | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
understand why. It is an overlapping story. It has the question of the | :07:00. | :07:06. | |
Prime Minister's judgement in backing Maria Miller when it seems | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
like she was caught red`handed, and the reduction in the fine. It is | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
about the integrity of the accountability structures within | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
Parliament for MPs and also about press regulation, because the | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
accusation is that the government, the Downing Street figures try to | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
shut this down by saying, we're looking at Leveson, press | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
regulation, perhaps you might want to reconsider this story. Lots of | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
this print aspect is going on. `` lots of different aspects. This | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
relates to the structures. Saying the culture secretary was trying to | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
put pressure on the independent standards Commissioner, saying you | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
should back off, you shouldn't investigate me as assiduously as you | :07:51. | :07:58. | |
are doing. She was suggesting the investigator was going into too much | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
detail, demanding records going back for too long and being unreasonable. | :08:03. | :08:04. | |
She has apologised. She did do 32 seconds. My children | :08:05. | :08:14. | |
when their crayons a wall used to do a full minute `` when they used | :08:15. | :08:24. | |
crayons on a wall. The one thing I have not minded about David Cameron | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
is his honouring loyalty to people he likes, Andy Coulson, Rebekah | :08:29. | :08:34. | |
Brooks, now Maria Miller. It puts his friends before his country. For | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
that, one actually quite admires him but what I have started now thinking | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
is, what terrible choices he makes when he decides who his friends are. | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
That makes me more worried than anything else, quite frankly. | :08:50. | :08:57. | |
Chinese fuel UK housing shortage. Far east spec you later 's price | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
Britons out of the market and we thought it was the Russians `` far | :09:01. | :09:13. | |
east speculators price Britons. The accusation is that the huge boom in | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
prices we're having at moment, prices rising 10% annually, part of | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
the problem is that there are too many foreign buyers, particularly in | :09:22. | :09:29. | |
city centres, this report suggests it is Manchester and Birmingham as | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
well as London and other cities. Isn't this a compliment, that | :09:35. | :09:37. | |
politically we are stable, our currency is reliable? I think it is | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
loads of people wanting to launder money from overseas, they want to | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
get it out of their home countries buying property. They buy off plan. | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
I live in cancel rise. No offence to anybody but it is a dust bowl in the | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
inner`city. They will put up gold clad residential blocks in the | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
middle of this high street and they seldom overseas as central London | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
flats. `` they sell them overseas. Nobody ever lives there? There is a | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
tree on one of the balconies. It pushes property up all around. The | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
whole thing is a ludicrous exercise... It is a posh way of | :10:17. | :10:24. | |
moving money around the world. Can we stop it happening? I take a | :10:25. | :10:31. | |
different view. The problem is essentially too little supply. If | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
you solve that problem, if you build more holes, if you build 250,000 a | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
year, which is what we need, and we are building about 15 at the moment. | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
15,000? Sorry, yes. If you bring it back into balance, a lot of the | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
foreign buyers would melt away. It would put them off would it? They | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
would still be there but there wouldn't be as much pressure on the | :11:02. | :11:09. | |
average price. They wouldn't be at such extortionate levels. Rather | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
than single out any foreign national group... I think it is dealing with | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
the symptoms rather than the real cause of the housing dismention. It | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
is a way of having a pop. None of these flats are going to be built by | :11:26. | :11:33. | |
UK nationals. They are boxes, overprized. Let's look at the Daily | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
Telegraph. I have to claim an interest in one of them. Maybe both | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
of them. Pay licence fee even if you don't own a TV, says BBC, as shows | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
go on the iPlayer for longer. At the moment they are on for a week but | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
later this year they will be available for 30 days. Should the | :11:53. | :11:58. | |
BBC charge if you use I player but don't use a telly? I think the idea | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
is that it would be a universal charge, so it would be a tax on | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
every household, as I'm reading it. I suppose it would be added to your | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
council tax or council charge. Is that any better than the licence | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
fee? Some people get cross about that. Apparently the biggest number | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
of civil cases going through our courts are nonpayment of licence | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
fee. So if it was added to your council tax, those at the bottom end | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
would get a discount anyway, because would be able to have it discounted | :12:30. | :12:35. | |
and your benefit would pay it for some people. Should it be | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
subscription? The question is how is this going to be levied? The Dev | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
sill in the detail. If people are consuming BBC content they should be | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
paying for it, otherwise they are getting a free ride on other people | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
who do pay the licence fee. That doesn't seem right. It is a | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
neuralgic issue, the licence fee, among some sections of the | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
population. It takes up quite a lot of my time on social media, having | :13:03. | :13:09. | |
to field those comments. Let's stay with the Telegraph and look at the | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
Mirror, Sir Bruce Forsyth is departing Strictly there. He is next | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
to Tess Daly and he's been hosting the show for ten years. He's also on | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
the Daily Mirror explaining why he's quit, saying the rigours of hosting | :13:25. | :13:30. | |
a live show at the age of 86 have become too much. Difficult shoes to | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
fill. You have to be able to hoof a bit yourself haven't you? I have to | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
say, I'm not a great fan of Tess Daly, so the only saving grace is | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
Sir Bruce Forsyth. I'm not a great fan of Strictly actually. Sorry, but | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
there we go. I'm so glad we invited you tonight! He ` all the cliches, | :13:50. | :13:57. | |
he is a living legend. He is so magical I think anyone who replaces | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
them, however good they are, just like Larry Grayson replaced him on | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
the Generation Game, they are great but they are not Bruce. Big shoes to | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
fill, but he isn't retiring. He makes this point, so don't go out | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
and throw yourself off bridges yet. Brucie's still going to be a | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
national treasure and on our screens. From time to time, for the | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
odd special. He will star with Wilnalia, won't he? I hope so, if | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
the good weather continues. We'll be back with the papers at 11. | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
30pm. Stay with that if you will. And we'll have the latest on the | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
journalist who was shot dead and another who was wounded in | :14:47. | :14:51. | |
Afghanistan on the eve of the country's presidential elections. Up | :14:52. | :14:52. | |
next it is Sportsday. Hello and welcome to Sportsday, I'm | :14:53. | :15:06. | |
Lizzie Greenwood`Hughes. The headlines this evening: Beaten by | :15:07. | :15:09. | |
the light ` Andy Murray's Davis Cup quarterfinal match is stopped in the | :15:10. | :15:13. | |
second set. Michael Schumacher shows signs of | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
waking up. The seven times F1 champion has been in an artificial | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
coma since the New Year. | :15:20. | :15:22. |
