Frontieres says it will force the infected underground. | :00:00. | :00:21. | |
Hello and welcome to our look ahead at what the papers will feature | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
tomorrow. For the second time in a day we have Yasmin and also | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
journalist Eve Pollard. You make me feel like the office junior! Let us | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
have a look at the front pages. The Observer says Scots will be offered | :00:40. | :00:46. | |
a radical new deal for people to vote no in the referendum. A new | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
poll suggests support for the yes vote is growing stronger and the | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
Sunday Times claims Scotland is on course to vote for independence | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
later this month. The Mail on Sunday carries a warning from Ed Miliband | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
that manned border posts could be introduced Scotland boasts for | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
independence. The Sunday Telegraph carries a picture of JK rolling who | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
famously donated to the better together campaign and her main story | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
is that MPs are likely to get a 10% pay rise next year. Katherine | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
Jenkins is pictured on front of Scotland's Sunday post with the | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
slightly confusing tag line, I'm so proud to be Scots. We will find out | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
more about that a little later. We will start with the Observer. Scots | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
to be offered a radical new bid it `` deal in a bid to save the union. | :01:35. | :01:40. | |
I new opinion poll will shock Britain. This is the poll that we | :01:41. | :01:48. | |
have been expecting. We are just 11 days until the historic vote and for | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
the first time, very symbolically, it looks as though the Yes campaign | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
have nudged ahead. Yes, everything is up for grabs. No | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
one side can be seriously overconfident but I think it has not | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
played... I have been to Scotland twice in the last six weeks, wants | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
to Edinburgh and once in the Borders, and what was clear when I | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
spoke to people there is that they did not like the bullying way the | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
big voices of the No campaign were going on. They felt they were being | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
put under and you pressure and they felt they were grown`ups and they | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
could think about it and some of them really did not know which way | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
they would go. A lot of people still do not. A lot say it will depend how | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
they feel when they go with. I think whatever happens Alex Salmon has | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
actually won. Even if it is a no vote they will get so many more | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
concessions and that is the Observer story. There have already been hints | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
that they will have a new convention and all kinds of new arrangements | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
will be offered. Just stay with us and we can come to an agreement. I | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
might be rather cynical about that. Government policy `` promised these | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
things in the civil servants get hold of it and it does not really | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
happen. If you think about it you have got separatists or people who | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
want to be Independent all over the world, it is part of a zeitgeist at | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
the moment, and I have expected that in the end it might turn out just to | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
be a vote for independence because there has been so much negativity | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
from this side and also there has been so much to frighten you. The | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
very first thing, if someone says they will frighten you into it, it | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
makes you think you will show them what `` who is boss and that is my | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
take in the ballot box. They have been talking about all of these | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
things they are going to give the Scots just to persuade them but they | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
have had a long time. This is exactly what we're going to give you | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
and here we are in of days before and it is almost like dealing with a | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
boyfriend. You now have two 0 accepted it. Should it have been | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
more carrot than stick all? There are really serious reasons why the | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
Scots are thinking about this. They need to be thought about as well. It | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
is quite clear to me that the way the Scots imagine their society is | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
very different from the way our bigger British imagination is going | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
in that they are very socialist minded, their nearest kind of ideals | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
are the Scandinavian countries where as, whether we like it or not, I | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
think our British government, successive governments, have veered | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
towards the Anglo`Saxon, much more ruthlessly capitalistic model. At | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
Times. I think ever since Margaret Thatcher until now there has been a | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
number of, through Blair and Brown. I do not think it is necessary that | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
we want to be like Americans, we live in bigger cities and we want a | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
different life. When you go to Scotland as I have two do bits of | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
work and to have holidays it is just a small group of people. London, let | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
us be very honest, perhaps the problem in the British Isles is | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
London runs everything. I fit we should become a city state and that | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
is the next bit of devolution. Can I be Queen of London? Not the real | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
Queen, she can be queen that I could run London. You need to speak about | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
Boris `` to Boris about that. Every Scottish person I met while I was | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
there, yes or no, is very pro`European. Let us move on to the | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
Sunday Times. That is a big difference as well. They have this | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
poll saying that the uni screen fears the break`up of the UK. David | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
Cameron is due to breakfast with the Queen tomorrow. That will be an | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
interesting conversation, went to? Publicly she does not express an | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
opinion but in the Sunday Times Royal sources said to say that the | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
Queen is a Unionist and we would expect that she is, she is the Queen | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
of Scotland as well. So is David Cameron and so most of us in our | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
hearts, we are part of Great Britain but you know you just have to have | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
some imagination to think that the Queen will still be the Queen of | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
Scotland. There is talk of a constitutional issue. They are in | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
uncharted territory. It is not beyond human wit to try and sort | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
something out. None of it is! Actually Her Majesty has been | :06:50. | :06:51. | |
brilliant all the way through and she will find a way through and it | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
will work fine if they do vote to leave. I notice that child has got | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
to kill time. Is tickets? It is the Braemar Games so you would have to | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
wear a kilt! The Scottish people are not going to get an elected head of | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
government. You do not think they will become a Republican same time? | :07:15. | :07:18. | |
I wish that they would! They did say that they actually won the Queen to | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
remain head of state. Let us look at the Mail on Sunday. Ed Miliband will | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
put up guards on the Scottish border and there is talk of a new Hadrian | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
's Wall. Can we get duty`free as we go across? If anything would want to | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
make you want to go and vote for independence this is a crazy idea. | :07:38. | :07:46. | |
You can almost see a sitcom being written about the men who man of | :07:47. | :07:55. | |
these guards with people passing by with too much mulled whiskey. Which | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
way will it flow? I am getting very old and will I moved to Scotland | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
because old people get a better deal? A nice little retirement | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
village! You have that warmer sea. Free care. All of us could move up | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
there. Who will it stop? Ed Miliband must be very worried because a lot | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
of his MPs come from Scotland. This is just insane. The idea that you | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
are going to have to go through customs, which you do not do now in | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
most of Europe so the idea that you are now leaving Scotland, have done | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
a think and what will you have to do, check how many shortbread | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
biscuits you have got? It is just insanity. Let us move on to the | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
Daily Telegraph and we can move away for a moment from the Scottish | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
referendum. MPs to get a temper sent pay rise. They say this is an | :08:52. | :08:58. | |
exclusive. They will defy the high minister and increase the salary to | :08:59. | :09:06. | |
?74,000 a year. David Cameron said he wanted the body that looks at | :09:07. | :09:09. | |
this to think again and he has even talked about scrapping the authority | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
if they do not do the right thing. On so many levels this is a very bad | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
idea, particularly in the election less `` election year. First of all | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
there are far too many MPs and if anybody and you know MPs and I know | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
MPs, they have far more time than you or I have. I thought they were | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
rushed off their feet? I think most of them! I would not say they do not | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
work but there are too many of them. I feel sympathy for some, the idea | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
of the London Place and the country a state, Mike suggestion is there | :09:44. | :09:50. | |
should be a house for the MP in every constituency, like the White | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
House. When you become the MP there is none of this changing fixings and | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
buy one with one mortgage and it is not your main house, you move into | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
that house and a few the big family might be a squash and if there are | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
two of you you might matter `` might rattle around but that is the house, | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
while house prices are risen outside London, we should buy it and we | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
should watch their expenses but then if they get far fewer expenses, and | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
there are far fewer of them, then they could get a rise. I do not | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
think they should get a rise. Not more than nurses or doctors. If they | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
want take 10% rise in then or other public services workers should get | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
the same, you cannot split the public service workforce. I think | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
most of them do a good job, most of them do the kind of stuff I could | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
never do, even getting elected must be so tough in today's very cynical | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
world. Yasmin, you could get elected tomorrow! Oh, I could not. But you | :10:48. | :10:57. | |
cannot claim that ?74,000 is not enough for you when so many other | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
public service staff, it is just not. It is not enough if you have to | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
have two homes but I do love that you should have two have two homes. | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
For the responsibilities they have, ?74,000 is not a huge amount of | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
money by modern standards. If the old days MPs had made some money and | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
then they went into politics. Now they get involved with politics at | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
university and they go straight into politics so they have never had a | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
job, which is a bad thing for what they have got to do, and they have | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
never had any money to fall back on, which is also possibly bad. The | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
whole thing needs a rethink. I am sorry, I think it is possible to | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
live in London for ?74,000. But not if you need to have a house | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
somewhere us. But I agree, subsidised housing for all MPs in | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
London or that wider area around Parliament but I do not think a 10% | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
rise is necessary. Maybe they should all have a council house in their | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
constituency. That would cause a lot of arguments, surely, you cannot be | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
suggesting that? I am not saying horrible council house but there are | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
some very nice ones. Lee leave council houses for the ones that | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
really need them. I am saying that there should be a constituency home | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
so there is no flipping and making money out of selling one and all the | :12:23. | :12:25. | |
rest of it and that, when you get elected, is where you go and live. I | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
do not think people become MPs for the money. They do not. They do it | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
for other reasons and I think those are good reasons. I just want to | :12:36. | :12:38. | |
quickly look at the Sunday Times again. Porridge gets a Tory flavour. | :12:39. | :12:47. | |
This is a comedy series about someone who is not habitual criminal | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
but the man who was a former Tory cabinet minister Jonathan Aitken, he | :12:52. | :12:59. | |
is colluding, co`writing with the man who co`wrote the thick of it, to | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
look at his time inside, the older Tony. It could be very funny because | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
they make a joke because if you have been to eat and you know what prison | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
will be like. This could be very funny and since we have got all of | :13:14. | :13:17. | |
these great actors now who have been to public schools we won't have to | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
look very far to look to get them to behave so I think it will be very | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
funny indeed. I am quite intrigued by powerful people when they go to | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
prison, how, when they come out, they make a career out of what | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
happened to them in a prison, it is just extraordinary. Ordinary people | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
do not do that, do they? They do not say, my life for 41 days in prison. | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
What is interesting is that I thought Jonathan Aitken wrote some | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
very good pieces, advice to Andy Coulson, about how to make the best | :13:48. | :14:08. | |
of it. He has learnt a lot. He also seems to have had some sort of | :14:09. | :14:10. | |
amoral rethink. That is what prison is all about, isn't it? It does not | :14:11. | :14:13. | |
always happen. But it seems to have done. | :14:14. | :14:14. | |
have. That is it for The Papers for today but we will have another look | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
at the stories on the front pages in an hour. Stay with us on BBC News. | :14:21. | :14:22. | |
We will have the latest on the crisis in Ukraine weather have been | :14:23. | :14:25. | |
reports on the shelling during the cease`fire. | :14:26. | :14:47. |
