within days. ``Qatar's. And after the papers, Tom Cruise is saving the | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
world from aliens. But how did critics find the film? Welcome to | :00:00. | :00:20. | |
our look ahead at what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With | :00:21. | :00:42. | |
me are Nigel Nelson, Political Editor of the The Sunday People, and | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
the stand`up comedian Romesh Ranganathan. Tomorrow's paper, | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
beginning with The Observer says the Labour leader Ed Miliband is facing | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
a backbench revolt over his immigration policy `` his critics | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
warn that unless he gets tougher he risks losing working class voters at | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
next year's General Election.The Independent on Sunday features the | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
campaign for justice for two Indian girls who were raped and murdered. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
The paper also reports that a study here shows that death rates in NHS | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
hospitals significantly increase at the weekends.The Sunday Times | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
alleges it has evidence which shows that the World Cup should not have | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
been awarded to Qatar in 2022. While, the Sun on Sunday reports | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
that police are investigating allegations of match`fixing ahead of | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
the World Cup in Brazil.The Sunday Telegraph's lead is that there will | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
be a radical reform of workplace pensions announced in this week's | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
Queen's Speech. The christian women in Sudan, that | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
is where we are going to begin, with Miriam Ebrahim. It is the main | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
picture story in the Observer, saying that Sudan has lifted the | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
death sentence. The death sentence by hanging after a flogging of 100 | :01:46. | :01:53. | |
lashes `` Taylor. That has been lifted as well? We don't know, you | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
imagine that if 100 lashes were given, that is effectively a death | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
sentence. I cannot find anything to say whether she is being released | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
without any punishment at all. It is not clear. It is good news that she | :02:06. | :02:12. | |
is not going to have a death sentence. Sudan says it was an issue | :02:13. | :02:17. | |
of letting justice see the course through. It has to go through | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
various appeal processes. Nothing to do with international outcry that | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
there has been? The international outcry has changed their mind | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
certainly! It is curious that this was announced by the Ministry of | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
foreign affairs in Sudan. They say that Sudan warranties freedom of | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
religion. Maybe the government does, but the courts obviously didn't. `` | :02:40. | :02:46. | |
allows. The question for the government is what are they doing | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
about the legal system? To make sure this does not happen again. Politics | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
and justice seem to be at odds in that country? It is a weird thing | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
that they say they guarantee the freedom of religion. What is going | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
on contradicts that. What is interesting about the story is that | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
it says that she was sentenced to death by hanging for refusing to | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
renounce her christian beliefs. There is this situation where she | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
was sentenced to death if she does not renounce her beliefs. To have | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
that force of belief, that you are willing to not pronounce these | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
beliefs and risked death, that is incredible and difficult to relate | :03:25. | :03:30. | |
to I think. The case was that she should have been a Muslim because | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
her father was. But she married a Christian man? There is this idea | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
that there is a freedom of religion, but it does not seem to be right. | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
The government has stepped in and released her because of | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
international pressure. It shows it works. However you look at it, it is | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
good news. But, one case. There could be many more? That is the | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
beer, but this is what it comes down to. The international community not | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
only turning their backs. `` that is the fear. But what happens | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
elsewhere? To have that dialogue will help us understand where they | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
are coming from. And prevent other women suffering the same fate. The | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
point you make about helping us to understand what they are coming from | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
is important `` where they are coming from. We have a similar | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
situation in this country where there is some fear around Islam | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
Islamic beliefs. With a story like this coming out, there is that worry | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
that you have, that people associate the story with being about Islam, | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
and it is actually about an interpretation of Islam. `` Islam | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
and Islamic beliefs. People are suspicious in this country, the | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
general public consensus is that if you look at this report about halal | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
chicken in restaurants, the nature of those reports indicate that there | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
is a feeling of the public being unsure of Islam. With a story like | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
this, the danger is that people think it is representative of Islam. | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
It is important to us to get an understanding so we get a context of | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
these things and so going forward we have a better understanding of where | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
these people are coming from. Let's stay with the Observer, the main | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
story is regarding immigration. A subject on everyone's minds, | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
particularly following the elections of late. Miliband must get tough on | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
EU migrants, that is the demand from MPs. That has also been demanded of | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
David Cameron. There's only so much you can do with the current state of | :05:34. | :05:42. | |
play. The EU is all about freedom of movement? It is, but you can open a | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
debate about it. The trouble we have seen from the European elections and | :05:46. | :05:53. | |
UKIP success. Farage was prepared to talk about immigration and other | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
party leaders were not. `` UKIP's success. People put that as the | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
number one concern. Let's get the facts out there and debate, our UKIP | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
trading on myths and hearsay? Is there something out there that we | :06:13. | :06:21. | |
need to address? ``are. UKIP, the driving force behind the increasing | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
popularity is the failure of the leaders of the main parties to | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
tackle immigration as an issue. People are worried about sounding | :06:29. | :06:31. | |
racist. That is the situation we are in. UKIP are willing to talk about | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
it and people feel a concern that they have is being dealt with. I am | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
really happy about that. It galvanises their support. You can | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
understand that the main party is reluctant to talk about it because | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
it is such a difficult situation but it has to be opened up. People feel | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
it is not being discussed so when one person is willing to discuss it, | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
everyone gets excited. It is felt that it is a burning issue. My | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
concerns are not being dealt with. If you are in a situation where you | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
have lost your job and you are told it is because of immigration and it | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
is not dealt with, you can understand why people are | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
frustrated. Let's move on to the Sunday Telegraph, radical pension | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
reforms. Pensioners will be able to invest in lest risky mega form `` | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
less risky mega funds. How will this work? As we do more research on it, | :07:25. | :07:34. | |
broadly, the idea is that people will group together, you form a mega | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
fund, and as a result, everyone is together and the administration | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
costs go down. This is a system that operates in Holland. According to | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
the calculations, if you put the same amount of money into a pension | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
pot in Britain, and the same amount in Holland, the Dutch pensioner will | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
get 30% more. It is a good kind of system. What David Cameron is | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
looking for is something eye`catching for the Queen's | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
speech. It has nothing terribly exciting in it, because he is | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
bringing in some bills that have already been out there. This is the | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
chance for him to start. It will distract people from the immigration | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
issue? I don't think so. They have had a go at it by using the words | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
"mega fund". That is obviously exciting. My mum would be excited. | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
She is part of a lottery syndicate at work, pulling everything | :08:35. | :08:37. | |
together, and she would be well on board with this. If you are worried | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
about immigration, and then they will reform pensions, you will not | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
say that you are happy now because it has been dealt with `` pooling. | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
That is not what people are asking. Everybody wants to know if there | :08:53. | :08:54. | |
will be enough money to keep you going? I agree, that is not... The | :08:55. | :09:07. | |
doorstep issue is immigration. I am keen on pensioners to! I am sure you | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
are, he is biased about his own concerns! `` too! Let's have a look | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
at the Sunday Times, Nick Clegg finds himself on the front, but not | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
for particularly positive reasons. He is the least popular leader in | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
modern British political history. It is horrible, he is having a | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
difficult time at work, and he thinks, it could be worse, but he | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
reads this paper, and things, no, it couldn't! What is astonishing is | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
that he is more unpopular than Gordon Brown. According to YouGov, | :09:46. | :09:54. | |
his unpopularity rating is `65 whereas Gordon Brown's was 62. `` | :09:55. | :10:04. | |
`62. He is only slightly less unpopular than Miklik. Is he going | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
to survive it? There are rumblings that he has to step down `` Nick | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
Clegg. He has to get it sorted out before the general election. He is | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
not out of the woods yet. I don't think Vince Cable was plotting | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
against him. He has to face this party conference in the autumn. | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
Under Liberal Democrat rules, it is the local parties who can decide to | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
unseat him. There will be moved to do that. My guess is he will decide | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
it, but he could move into a tricky summer. The Sunday Telegraph, what | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
should you do about how do you do? The form of greeting that is social | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
and trough Pol `` social anthropologist says we should be | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
bringing back into use. We have said that it was first used in 1600, and | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
was an enquiry about people 's health. We have been able to | :11:00. | :11:09. | |
discover the etiquette. I would turn to you, and so, how do you do Lady | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
Windermere? How do you do Lord Darlington? That is how Oscar Wilde | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
did it. I am glad that someone has said that, on social media, they | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
said, do do do the funky Gibbon! I will not, if you don't mind! How do | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
you do implies that you care about how the other person is doing. When | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
you are really not that bothered. If you are terribly British, and | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
someone asks how you are, you would say that you are fine. The truth is | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
rarely ask it, you don't really care! If someone says, actually, | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
they are having a complete nightmare... The point that the | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
anthropologist was talking about is that greetings have become more | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
complicated. When you go out to someone to kiss them on one cheek, | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
or do you do it on both cheeks? Do you shake hands or not? We may have | :12:02. | :12:08. | |
over complicated it. Perhaps, is simple hello is the answer. If you | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
are Dutch, it is three kisses and never ends! Kiss inflation is a | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
problem! I would go for four sometimes! If I am feeling Lucky! A | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
clash of glasses can also be an issue. Lady Windermere, Lord | :12:23. | :12:30. | |
Darlington, it has been good having you both here. Thank you for joining | :12:31. | :12:38. | |
us. Stay with us, at midnight, we will have more on that accident on | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
the Scottish Borders where three people died after two crashes during | :12:43. | :12:44. | |
the Jim Clark Rally. | :12:45. | :12:46. |
