Jenkins pulls out of the triathlon. That's in Sportsday, in 15 minutes, | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
after the papers. Hello there. Welcome to our lock | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
ahead to what the papers will bring us tomorrow. With me Alice Arnold | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
and Martin Bentham. Let's look at some of the front pages now. We | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
start with the FT. It goes with the Prime Minister's reshuffle, saying | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
he's injected new urgency into Britain's drive to reform the | :00:33. | :00:36. | |
European Union. The Telegraph, pictures the Employment Minister | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
there, Esther McVey who keeps her job and will now attend Cabinet. The | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Express says Britain is set to swelter as a so`called Spanish plume | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
of hot air sweeps in. Going, going, Gove is on the front of the | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
Guardian, which says David Cameron demoted the Education Secretary | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
after polling showed he was toxic with voters. | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
The Mail says the penalty for drivers who use a mobile phone at | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
the wheel could be doubled to six points. And the Sun reports that the | :01:04. | :01:08. | |
television host Jeremy Kyle was attacked with pepper spray by a | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
bouncer in Magaluf. I think they've just opened an | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
office in Magaluf actually, the Sun. Any way, Alice, we start with the | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
Telegraph, Cameron targets women and UKIP. On the front page a Trident | :01:25. | :01:29. | |
looking Esther McVey who keeps her job. Two more women are now going to | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
be in the Cabinet, ten women have been promoted in all. Is that good | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
enough do you think? This is Cameron's `` this is a reflection of | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
modern Britain in his Cabinet, five out of 17 in the Cabinet are now | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
women. If that reflects modern Britain, there's a lot of women | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
hiding. Where are I can't they? Do the maths with that It's more one. | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
Reflective, though, it's better. It's the most that have ever been | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
under Cameron. So whoopee for that and lovely pictures of Esther McVey, | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
who isn't properly in the Cabinet, but she looks nice in the pictures. | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
Hang on ` the she's attending meetings. I'm getting the impression | :02:18. | :02:22. | |
you're not impressed. I'll be impressed when the Cabinet reflects | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
modern Britain. I'll be impressed when it reflects modern Britain, 50% | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
of the brightest people in this country are women. They need to be | :02:32. | :02:34. | |
in the Cabinet, otherwise we're wasting a lot of talent. I didn't | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
see any black or Asian people striding purposely towards the door | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
of Number Ten today either. No, no pictures of that. Hang on, let's me | :02:42. | :02:49. | |
` no, don't see it. But Martin, to be fair, to be fair, it is more | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
reflective of Britain, isn't it? It's more reflective than it was. | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
Alice might suggest it's starting from a very, Very Nice Name low `` a | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
very, very low base. That's the problem. He has to go from | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
somewhere. The real problem is that in the Conservative Party they don't | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
have that many women in questionable. They don't have | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
anywhere near 50% in the Parliamentary party and it's | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
difficult to get that many into the Cabinet. That's part of the problem. | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
The other question about it will be, although, many of these women, in | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
fact all of them have got very good reputations and are talked of being | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
very talented, there is a fear that because it's all about the election | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
that's it's a late rush to do it, rather than pure promotion on merit, | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
which should have happened some time ago. Exact ly. Let's go onto the | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
UKIP point. Philip Hammond is a Euro`sceptic. He would like to see | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
Britain leave the EU, he said, if there is no reform. The | :03:49. | :03:55. | |
Attorney`General, Dominic grief is out. `` Dominic Grieve is out. He | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
believes the European Convention on Human Rights is a good thing. Is | :04:01. | :04:07. | |
this a clear and present attack to take away the sting of UKIP? That's | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
how the Tell graph is billing it. The question for cam ran is A, | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
whether when we have, which we will come onto in a second, whether when | :04:18. | :04:23. | |
the top jobs in Europe are divied up tomorrow whether we get a plum post | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
or not and further down`the`line, whether preelection there's any sign | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
from the Government that they've achieved anything sub`Stantive in | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
repatriating the powers they want. Otherwise when it comes to the | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
general election, UKIP and those who are critical will say, well, what | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
have you achieved? You talk about this and maybe you've got more | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
Euro`sceptic people in key posts, but it hasn't delivered anything. | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
All this happening on the same day, if we go to the if the `` Financial | :04:52. | :04:58. | |
Times. On the front there's a picture of a smiling Nigel Farage | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
and Jean`Claude Juncker. Has that been photo shopped. That must have | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
been. That cannot be true. Can it? No, it's true. I'm sure it is. | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
They've been pale recently. Farage was congratulating him on his | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
alleged drinking. He's happy he has a drink and a smoking. They're | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
drinking Maybe not buddies. . We know allegedly, I'm not sure if | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
that's correct, that Mr Juncker likes a tipple. We certainly know | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
that Mr Farage likes a tipple. That seems to be why they're agreeing | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
there. Yes, and they're putting in that this chap called Lord Hill, who | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
they hope will get one of these, everybody seems to have had to | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
Google him to find out who he is, including Juncker. Nobody knows who | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
he is. Do you know? I must admit, I know of Lord Hill, a Labour peer, | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
actually. I thought for a second it was him. Obviously it wasn't him! | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
That would be a surprise. That's a reshuffle too far. Exact ly. No`one | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
knows this one particularly. We've Googled him now and he's going to | :06:03. | :06:04. | |
hopefully, they hope get one Googled him now and he's going to | :06:05. | :06:05. | |
hopefully, they hope get of the top jobs. That's the hope that this man | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
will be in there and get hopefully one of the portfolio that might | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
suggest that Europe could be moving towards the way that the UK feels in | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
relation to the European Union. That's not going to happen, is it? | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
Is Jean`Claude Juncker going to give one of the serious integration | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
portfolios to a British Euro`sceptic? He might do in the | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
sense that clearly both he, from what he's said, and indeed the | :06:32. | :06:35. | |
Germans, through Angela Merkel, are keen actually despite all the | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
clashes that have gone on to keep us on board. I think, although Lord | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
Hill is not the Tory big hitter that was mooted beforehand, various other | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
names were touted as going to Brussels in that role, it will be a | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
real test, I think, as to whether there are serious intent in the | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
European Union to listen to them. He's making rumbling noises, | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
Juncker, that are in the right direction. Yes. Sort of. Although... | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
Whether he does anything or not. Yeah. Delivery is the key | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
Appeasement. We know that one person who has been delivering in terms of | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
his brief to shake up the education system, Mr Gove, the front page of | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
the Guardian ` going, going Gove that. Was out of the blue, wasn't | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
it? No`one had any idea that was coming. Wasn't he unpopular. This is | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
the thing, Cameron is looking for the next election. He's thinking, | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
I've got to save my bacon here. If that means getting rid of my best | :07:34. | :07:36. | |
friend ` they're out. That's why he's got rid of Gove. He's become ` | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
A Marmite figure, I heard him described at. Most people not liking | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
Marmite in that way. Do you know many people would like Gove? I'm | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
sure there are. I have to say personally, as a parent with a | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
daughter in school, I'm quite in favour of some of his You reforms. | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
Go. She isn't actually. There's another matter. Right. What the | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
interesting thing here of course, the great conundrum is that he's | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
apparently doing this on the basis of polling and sacrificing his | :08:12. | :08:14. | |
friend for the greater electoral gain. Yet, what's being said is that | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
Michael Gove will appear ever more on television and being a key | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
presentational figure. Exact ly, he's actually going to be on the TV | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
much more than he is already. More? There's going to be more. He's a | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
very effective speaker. He is. He's very engaging. Here, he's been | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
joking today, apparently telling your PM programme today, "Demotion, | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
emotion, promotion, locomotion, I don't know how to describe this | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
move, but it's a privilege to serve." Exact Exactly. He doesn't | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
see it as a demotion. Even though he's not taking home as much in his | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
pay as he used to. It's fun yip how you can look at the `` funny how can | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
you look at the bright That's to side. His credit. That point was | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
made to him that he's not getting a Cabinet minister's salary. He made | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
the point that anybody in politics is quite well paid and therefore he | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
wasn't bothered about this. I thought, all to his credit actually. | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
Most people think they are well paid. Indeed. We're going to go to | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
the, stay with the Guardian actually. Interesting story this, | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
let the terminally ill end their lives say doctors. This is of course | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
in advance of Lord Falconer's assisted dying bill reaching the | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
floor. This is a debate that is really developing now. Well, it is. | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
It's interesting because we've got the two sides in the papers, we will | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
look at the Tell graph in a minute. This is doctors wanting the bill to | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
go through, or some doctors. It was interesting Desmond Tutu came out in | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
favour of it at the weekend and having seen the treatment of Nelson | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
Mandela apparently and Lord Carey has come out in favour of it, which | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
is quite controversial. It seems that the bill would allow adults | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
with less than six months to live to receive help to end their lives. | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
This is the problem. Who decides who's got less than six months to | :10:13. | :10:20. | |
live? How do you make that decision? People have recoveries. Oh, it's a | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
huge can of worms to open. It's just interesting that there are some | :10:26. | :10:28. | |
religious leaders coming out in favour and presumably quite a lot of | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
doctors will be coming out against as well. It's not a Black Country | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
and white thing. `` It's not a black and white thing. In the telegraph, | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
religious leaders unite to condemn the law. One of the world's most | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
famous religious leaders has made it clear he believes there is a role in | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
society for assisted dying. Yes, again, you're right, there's no | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
absolute straight down`the`line split. Some people see it as a | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
compassionate issue and want to assist people who do have this clear | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
view that they want to die. I think the question also is ` some of the | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
people who are most articulate about it and clearly can decide for | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
themselves, that's fine. Not everybody is in that situation. Some | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
people, there is a question about people feeling under pressure, | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
feeling they're a burdened and that's `` burden, and that's | :11:21. | :11:22. | |
difficult. We can see the individual, very, very tragic cases | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
of people who either have terminal illnesses which are going to leave | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
them to face a lingering death or others who are incapacitated and | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
want to end their lives. It's tragic and sad to see that. But it may not | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
be creating a law which allows those cases to be identified clearly and | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
not to have the negative side of some people feeling under pressure | :11:45. | :11:53. | |
is quite difficult. Finally, the Daily Telegraph. | :11:54. | :12:02. | |
Alexander and's claim that it will be 18 months of negotiation to stay | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
in the European Union has been knocked out, apparently `` Alex | :12:08. | :12:16. | |
Salmond. He will launch this grenade at the Scots here. He has clarified | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
this by saying no new states does not include Scotland but it probably | :12:23. | :12:28. | |
reflects a possible reality that may occur if the Scots vote for | :12:29. | :12:33. | |
independence because there is a question about whether they would be | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
admitted. The Daily Telegraph might be staring the pot a little bit. A | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
spokesman for it Jean`Claude Yunker said he was not referring to | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
Scotland `` Jean`Claude Juncker. He said apparently according to his | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
office that he was talking about those already in the accession | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
process such as Serbia and Turkey. That is a bit of a dodgy story, | :13:00. | :13:06. | |
apparently. They got it a bit wrong, maybe they let a little early. Maybe | :13:07. | :13:12. | |
they meant to leap a bit early. Or perhaps he did not express himself | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
Ray clearly in the first place. You will be back in about an hour's | :13:17. | :13:26. | |
time. Many thanks. Stay with us on BBC news because at 11pm we will | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
have more on the Prime Minister's Major Cabinet reshuffle which has | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
seen several women promoted to senior roles. Coming up now, it is | :13:33. | :13:34. | |
Sportsday. Hello and welcome to Sportsday, | :13:35. | :13:47. | |
