up on international duty could have been avoided. And it was a | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
record`breaking day for a South Korean golfer on the women's tour. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
That is after the papers. Hello and welcome to | :00:00. | :00:14. | |
our look ahead to what the papers With me is media commentator | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
for Forbes.com, Neil Midgley, and, from Glasgow, | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
Scottish columnist We can look at the front pages | :00:21. | :00:38. | |
first. The Daily Telegraph claiming the BBC has told the presenters and | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
stars of the last night of the problem is not to mention the | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
Scottish referendum, with fears the corporation could be accused of | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
bias. The Financial Times reporting that Scottish banks led an onslaught | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
against Scottish independence. The Guardian have Oscar Pistorius. He | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
was cleared of murdering his girlfriend. But he will have to wait | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
until tomorrow for the final verdict. The Sun newspaper leading | :01:07. | :01:14. | |
with a story about Strictly, but carrying a poll that suggests the no | :01:15. | :01:27. | |
vote have a 58 to 48% lead `` 52. The daily record has the story of | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
the jihadi bride vowing to kill and to die a martyr. And the Daily | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
Express saying that house prices have increased by an average of | :01:39. | :01:44. | |
?26,000 in the past year. We will start with Scotland. The Financial | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
Times. Kevin, business onslaught over the yes vote. It has all been | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
about the corporate world today. Five banks have indicated they will | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
move their headquarters, their company address, south of the border | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
in the event of a yes vote. Several high street retailers, such as John | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
Lewis and Marks Spencer have suggested that prices, somehow, will | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
go up in the event of a yes vote. I think a lot of the onslaught was | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
expected at some point and it was obvious it would happen when last | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
week's polls suggested much against predictions down south that is the | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
yes vote was level pegging with no. A lot of Scots will be is slightly | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
cynical as to why this has happened now, why the banks, for instance, if | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
they are afraid of currency uncertainty, why they are doing it | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
now, rather than in seven days, when it cannot affect the vote. And there | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
is the strong whiff of orchestration by number ten in collusion with the | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
Better Together campaign, which leaves a nasty taste in the mouth. A | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
suggestion this has been orchestrated by David Cameron. He | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
would do that, would he? At this stage in the campaign, number ten | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
pulling out the stops. There was a reception for business leaders on | :03:28. | :03:36. | |
Monday and arms were twisted. An interesting part of the FT story is | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
that Marks Spencer will pitch in tomorrow. This is not just a no | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
campaign, this is an M camp paid now! The big guns are coming out `` | :03:48. | :03:54. | |
campaign. There has been an argument about the banks and why they are | :03:55. | :04:01. | |
moving to England. Alex Salmond saying the jobs and operations will | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
be here. Part of the issue according to the Financial Times is the banks | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
are worried the rating agencies will downgrade them if they are part of a | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
smaller economy and that they will not have the Bank of England as the | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
bank of last resort. It will be a big issue for an independent | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
Scotland that they lose that as part of the union `` what they get as | :04:25. | :04:32. | |
part of the union. The ban, the headline, the BBC banning talk of | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
the referendum for the last night of the Proms. I do feel sorry for the | :04:39. | :04:46. | |
poor old BBC at times like this. I have written my fair share of | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
negative stories about the BBC, at the BBC has to you try to stay | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
impartial. That is in any political matters. And to have political | :04:59. | :05:06. | |
slogans, electioneering from presenters, performers, at the last | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
night of the Proms would cause a huge impartiality headache, because | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
it is difficult to make sure you have similar quantities on both | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
sides, if you allowed it. But it does feel like the BBC has been | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
po`faced and overly serious when you think that the last night of the | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
Proms, rule Britannia, Jerusalem, the most patriotically night of the | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
year. You cannot deny that this is going to have a bearing. Viewers in | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
Scotland will make up their minds based one way or the other of the | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
waving of the union Jacks. They will be able to bring banners. They can | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
have campaign banners. Kevin, will that make people sway one way or the | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
other? I cannot see it. There is something faintly ridiculous about | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
this story. Are they really going to be seeing `` saying to performers we | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
do not want a mention of the referendum. I doubt it is the top of | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
the agenda, the performers on that night. Will they banned music by | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
Elgar, for instance? Do they think we Scots who enjoy classical music | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
may be swayed to stay in the union because of a sharp burst of | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
Jerusalem? I doubt it. Our hearts are stirred by that music anyway, | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
whether it is stirred the union is another matter. The Times newspaper | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
and the Sun newspaper have this new poll that puts the no campaign of | :06:50. | :06:58. | |
52%, yes on 48%. This is back to the figures we we used to. I know the | :06:59. | :07:08. | |
Sun newspaper is presenting this as the no campaign regaining lost | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
ground. If you were to ask people in the yes campaign where they would | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
like to be with seven days to go, I think within two points of victory | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
is exactly where they would like to be. The thing about the yes campaign | :07:27. | :07:34. | |
is that they have access to more volunteers and they have a more | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
sophisticated and better organised electoral machine. In the next seven | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
days, not a street in Scotland will be without yes campaigners. There | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
are more of them, they are more evangelical than no campaigners and | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
to be within two points of touching distance with all this campaigning | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
still to go, I would say it is where they would like to be. We can turn | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
to the Guardian, who have a powerful picture of Oscar Pistorius crying in | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
the dock. He has been cleared of murder, but no judgement yet coming | :08:14. | :08:20. | |
from Judge Masipa in Pretoria. He may well yet to be found guilty of | :08:21. | :08:27. | |
what I think is called culpable homicide, manslaughter, which is, | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
roughly speaking, as a former solicitor, means killing someone | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
when you do not intend to. The judge has said that Oscar Pistorius acted | :08:37. | :08:43. | |
unlawfully. Firing a gun at anybody behind a closed door is unlawful and | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
dangerous. And so he may well still go to prison will stop I am struck | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
by the drama. You pointed to the picture on the front page of the | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
Guardian. If he does not go to prison, he has a career in Hollywood | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
ahead, the amount of crying, vomiting during his testimony, can | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
you imagine his O on speech with this level of emotion? `` Oscars. | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
And this final twist in the court case. We expected a conclusive | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
verdict and there has been another cliffhanger. You could not script it | :09:30. | :09:30. | |
better. What is your take? Congratulation to | :09:31. | :09:46. | |
the arts department because that is an excellent front page with a | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
superb picture well used. It will grab people on the newsstands | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
tomorrow. I saw the judge giving the reasons for the first part of her | :09:59. | :10:01. | |
verdict today and although I do not have a legal background, I would | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
suggest it would not provide much comfort to Oscar Pistorius and his | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
team in terms of what can be expected tomorrow if she is already | :10:12. | :10:19. | |
talking about unlawful. Thank you very much. We will be back at | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
11:30pm for another look at the stories making the news. At 11 | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
o'clock, Alex Salmond accuses Westminster of laying as banks and | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
businesses expressed concern over the economic impact of Independence | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
`` bullying. Now time for the sport. Louis Van Gaal parade his new | :10:43. | :11:08. | |
signings and he says he released Danny | :11:09. | :11:09. |
