Gerrard will quit international football. That is all coming up in | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
15 minutes. Hello and welcome to our look ahead | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are the | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
political commentator Miranda Green and Tom Bergin, Business | :00:21. | :00:26. | |
Correspondent at Reuters. Tomorrow's front pages, starting with... The | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
Financial Times leads with the story of the Tesco Chief Executive going ` | :00:31. | :00:33. | |
'Chief Ousted as Tesco bows to city' is their headline. Some of the | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
papers pick up on David Cameron's comments on the Maylasian Airlines | :00:40. | :00:49. | |
crash. The Times has 'stop selling warships to Russia', PM tells | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
France. While The Daily Telegraph quotes the Prime Minister as saying | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
it's time to punish Putin. The Sun says the UK is ready to freeze the | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
assets of various Russian Oligarchs ` their headline is 'crony war.' The | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
Independent has a close`up picture of the singer and former X Factor | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
judge Tulisa Contostavalos, after her trial on drugs charges | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
collapsed. Tulisa's story is also on the front page of the Metro. The | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
Daily Mail features a new official picture of Prince George, who's | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
celebrating his first birthday. And the Guardian leads with a story | :01:17. | :01:18. | |
about female genital mutilation, their headline, 'Parents who allow | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
FGM will be prosecuted.' So let's begin... We will focus on some of | :01:22. | :01:32. | |
those stories, starting with the front page of the Sun. The headline | :01:33. | :01:44. | |
is crony war. Absolutely. The focus has moved on how best to express | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
international outrage to Russia and to President Putin over the downing | :01:51. | :01:55. | |
of the Malaysian jet type Pro brush and rebels in Ukraine `` pro` | :01:56. | :02:05. | |
Russian rebels. The Sun has decided to go with the most recognisable | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
Russians who are either residents in the UK or an incredibly high`profile | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
assets in the UK for example, Chelsea football club and the | :02:16. | :02:22. | |
suggestion is that the government in this country will get tough on Putin | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
by targeting individuals who are known to have close links to him | :02:28. | :02:36. | |
including the owner of that football club and another who has a | :02:37. | :02:44. | |
significant stake in Arsenal. One of them owns a dot on which George | :02:45. | :02:52. | |
Osborne was hobnobbing `` yacht. They are all in the Putin Circle in | :02:53. | :02:59. | |
some way and all will be targeted. The other papers explain that there | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
are different levels of sanctions which makes it problematic and | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
Britain is trying to convince other countries in Europe to go up to | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
level three which doesn't include the targeting of the cronies so it | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
is a little unclear whether these individuals who are so famous in the | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
UK will really be targeted immediately. I suppose there is a | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
doubt as to whether if you target a crony, a very wealthy crony, does it | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
make a tremendous deal of difference to Vladimir Putin? Possibly not but | :03:33. | :03:40. | |
everyone has already decided that targeted sanctions are not working | :03:41. | :03:42. | |
and that we need to move beyond that. If we really wanted to use big | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
levers, we need to look at big companies and transactions. What we | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
haven't seen is, what are these issues that people can bring to the | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
table and contribute? If this is the best of the UK can offer, to say | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
that we will put pressure on these people, I am not sure how good it | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
will be. For the UK, the big issue is the city, there is big financial | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
exposure here and it is where Russian companies come to raise | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
funds. If the UK did make it more difficult for Russia to take | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
advantage of the capital market through London, of course other | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
countries and developing nations who also raise funds to Britain might | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
not find Britain to be the place they want to do business anymore. | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
Putting in sanctions of that nature are slightly problematic for those | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
reasons `` is. It might do more damage to the UK then to these | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
individuals. The Times, you mentioned level three. That is | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
mentioned here. It focuses on what the Prime Minister has said to the | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
French about the warships deal. Many of the papers are taking the David | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
Cameron line. In the House of Commons, he said that he would love | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
to get tougher on Putin but he just can't persuade the Germans and the | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
French to be as tough as they would like them to be. The French have an | :05:24. | :05:29. | |
order which they are determined to for fill for warships that they want | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
to deliver to Russia and David Cameron has picked on them to say, | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
in our country, it would be unthinkable to do this. Fulfil. `` | :05:41. | :06:09. | |
ffulfill. I do think this is slightly theatrical given that the | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
city of London has so much to lose from any sort of serious sanctions. | :06:14. | :06:27. | |
This would put sanctions on Gazprom which would damage the city of | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
London through financial and economic means. We have large shares | :06:31. | :06:41. | |
in many Russian companies but it is quite indirect how we're related. If | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
you are a French person, I can see how you would not want to kill that | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
order as it is worth millions of euros and I think it possibly will | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
not be moved by what has been said. It is not in any way equivalent to | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
the loss that the French would suffer, what is happening here. The | :07:01. | :07:06. | |
issue is coming what is the best way to behave to get cooperation on the | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
ground. That is what is wanted by the relatives of those who were | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
killed in the downing of the jet. Many are waiting to see what the | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
Netherlands have to say as many Dutch people were killed when the | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
plane crashed Earth. Some are saying that access to the site, trying to | :07:27. | :07:34. | |
get those bodies back, all of that depends not on coming down too hard | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
on the Russians but on the letting things play out a bit more. It is a | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
tactical decision to go soft and get as much access as possible right | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
now. Although in theory, that UN Security Council resolution should | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
help but it is about happening in practice rather than theoretically. | :07:53. | :08:02. | |
You have to have a look at the track record of going soft on Vladimir | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
Putin not being very successful. This is the front page of the | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
Telegraph. George Osborne to slash a tax on pension funds. This with a | :08:14. | :08:21. | |
strange one. I wasn't sure what the threat could be. It turns out is a | :08:22. | :08:30. | |
bit more obligated than I had thought `` complicated. If you died, | :08:31. | :08:47. | |
and your income was not taxed,. Now will be `` that now will be payable | :08:48. | :08:58. | |
to your heirs but in a reduced capacity. One of the reasons it was | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
changed was due to concerns of tax avoidance but the larger story that | :09:04. | :09:10. | |
this is part of is that George Osborne has led the biggest change | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
in pension taxation in a generation and has said that, you no longer | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
have to use a pension nest egg that we have helped you build up by not | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
taxing you so hard, you can go and spend it on what you like rather | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
than in an annuity. The other question is, will people invest | :09:32. | :09:38. | |
wisely or become victims of snake oil salesman? That is the accusation | :09:39. | :09:46. | |
he has to face. I also can't help noticing that there is an election | :09:47. | :09:54. | |
coming up. The Telegraph is saying that this very technical change was | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
announced in his autumn statement and that will be in the lead up to | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
his final budget before the 20 15th of May general election and this is | :10:06. | :10:15. | |
very much core Tory territory. Inheritance tax and whether you make | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
it easier for people to pass on at DeMolay did well to their heirs `` | :10:19. | :10:29. | |
accumulated wealth. As technical as this change is coming they will be | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
delighted because what better place to advertise? We will stay with the | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
front of the Telegraph. What to get for a Prince who has everything? | :10:45. | :10:55. | |
Many of the papers are using these delightful pictures which were used | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
to celebrate the first birthday of Prince George. This little story | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
accompanying the picture in the telegraph reveals that since he has | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
been born in just one year, he has received 4000 gifts from all around | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
the world, 48 countries. Most parents feel that way with the | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
conglomeration of plastic toys in one's house but he actually have | :11:24. | :11:41. | |
it! They are rather extravagant. His parents, William and Kate have | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
decided that he should not be showered with any more gifts on his | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
birthday and I think this will resonate with a loss of parents | :11:50. | :11:56. | |
because I certainly find that on a child's birthday, you receive an | :11:57. | :11:57. | |
embarrassing amount of generosity from Ben's and family `` friends and | :11:58. | :12:07. | |
family. The child gets overwhelmed. We tend to just put them in a | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
cupboard and pretend they never arrived in the house. I'm not quite | :12:11. | :12:13. | |
sure what they will do with the excess gifts. He has a fattened | :12:14. | :12:23. | |
calf. Where will they put that? Environmental concerns begin to | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
overwhelm me when I see the amount of gifts that come into the house | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
and we ration them as well but it is a wonderful picture. It is | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
apparently this display of butterflies at the natural `` | :12:37. | :12:53. | |
National History Museum. Now to Scotland for the start of the | :12:54. | :12:54. | |
Commonwealth Games. I have not been up to speed on it. I | :12:55. | :13:14. | |
didn't realise that Scotland played separately. It could be a wonderful | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
thing to bring the United Kingdom together, but obviously not. I do | :13:19. | :13:27. | |
wonder about the relevance of the Commonwealth Games. Sport is highly | :13:28. | :13:35. | |
commercial. I am not sure how excited sponsors are about this. I | :13:36. | :13:45. | |
am intrigued as to how it will compare with the London 2012 games. | :13:46. | :13:51. | |
That was such a boost for the winners in Team GB. Those of us who | :13:52. | :14:03. | |
would like the UK to stay together, I hope it won't lead to a boost for | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
Alex Salmond, and his campaign. That is all we have time for. Stay with | :14:12. | :14:23. | |
us and we will have the latest on the United Nations requiring full | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
access to the site of the crash of MH17. Coming up next, it is time for | :14:29. | :14:36. | |
Sportsday. | :14:37. | :14:39. |
