12/01/2016 The Papers

All of that, and news on Chris Froome and Andy Murray

Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

With me are Kate McCann, Senior Political Correspondent

at the Telegraph and James Lyons, the Deputy Political Editor

Tomorrow's front pages starting with,

Welcome to both of you. In case you have just joined us, we will look at

some of the front pages. The oil industry is facing the worst

service bosses are accused of trying service bosses are accused of trying

to trick junior doctors to return to work by declaring emergency during

today's strike. Lord Patten, Oxford University's Chancellor, has

defended historically was with Cecil Rhodes. They are increasingly

optimistic they can end the dispute and make a deal before there is

another strike. Scientists confident dementia could become a treatable

condition within a decade. The Times reports on a study that found that

nearly half of Britain's pensioners will ration their energy use in the

coming days even though temperatures are on the way down.

Let's begin. Kate, perhaps you could start us off, the doctors' strike,

in the Metro, Strachur doctors' theory over.

in the Metro, Strachur doctors' theory what is this about? Doctors

at Sandwell Hospital sent an e-mail to striking junior doctors to ask

them to come back into work citing a level for incident because they

didn't have enough staff to manage what was going on at the hospital.

One of the junior doctors said they spotted the message was dated Monday

and they always expected the hospital would be busy that day and

therefore it wasn't an emergency so doctors decided not to go back to

work. Although there was a figure from the BMA today that said 38% of

junior doctors work in work today regardless because many of them were

manning emergency department posts. Perhaps not as many as expected did

walk out in the end. It is is Mola side issue in the overall dispute.

What is interesting here is it shows the depth of feeling on both sides

and bitterness that has been created around this dispute. Clearly there

is a great deal of mistrust on the part of junior doctors and equally,

if you speak to people in the Government they certainly feel they

have been entirely reasonable. So, it's interesting to see that the

Guardian are saying they think... Let's move the Guardian. They say

there could be a resolution in view after this. As Kate said before we

came on, once you have been on strike, this is the first doctors'

strike since 1975, and once you have done it once it is much easier to do

it again. The Guardian says hopes of a deal to end the deadlock rise as

doctors go back to work. I'm not sure anybody else puts it that

highly. On also ice, even the junior doctors

that were interviewed on strike today says they don't want to be on

strike, the natural instinct is not to be on the picket line, it is to

be in the hospital. It is notable in the Guardian article by David

Dobson, who Jeremy Hunt brought in as chief negotiator, is said to be

well respected in the NHS, so that he will have the pact they have that

had so far. It's taken a long time to get this far, they've argued

about it for the last couple of years, so it's the last minute.

Let's move on, Turkey in the Guardian. Many papers have the

story, the Guardian amongst many, about the bomb blast in Turkey. This

is a worrying development, is it not? Ten people killed, most of them

German tourists, a number of people killed in the attack in Turkey. I

think what is worth noting about this is the Turkish authorities are

saying they have already identified the person responsible for the

attack, it was a Syrian man, a suicide bomber and they seem to know

who he was. That is very quick for them to identify who was

responsible. I think there are questions that need to be asked

whether he was on a watchlist, was he simply already marked out as

perhaps a bit of that needed to be watched more closely, and if that's

the case, how was it about to get this far? It is complicated in

Turkey's case because the Turkish government is bearing down heavily

on the Kurds, who are actually fighting. It is a reminder that

Turkey is in the front line and cool between Europe and what is going on

in Syria. Indeed. -- caught between. Now to the Financial Times. The

price of oil is going down sharply and dark warnings about what that

might mean. This is terrible news if you are one of the 4000 people

facing losing their job, but good news for motorists. You've got to

wonder where this is going to end. If prices keep falling like this we

will end up getting a free gallon of petrol with every four glasses. It

is a serious situation, not just for the oil industry but this will

spread across all sectors. It already has, commodity prices across

the board have been dropping for some time, China had a big impact on

that, it stopped building and developing the weight has done for a

number of years and many people based economic projections on China

's growth -- in the way it has done. There are articles suggesting a

property dip could be about to hit this country and it is something to

watch, not just the oil industry. I saw another story at the weekend

that the could be heading the same way as Japan, years and years of

stagnant growth and all the things that come with that. Although you

have to say many economists would tell you that lower petrol prices

are a shot in the arm to the economy.

OK! Let's go to the Telegraph, it is your newspaper, Kate, take as

through this quickly. Cecil Rhodes, his statue, some people want to take

it down. And now incomes Lord Patten. This is interesting, not

just because of the Cecil Rhodes debate that has gone on for a number

of years and there has been this to squash and about statues at

universities, not just in this country. But it's about what

universities should be doing when it comes to freedom of speech and

expression. This comes back to the debate about no platforming and

people who have unsavoury views and people whose views board on

extremism are being barred from universities and not allowed to

speak. Universities have a strong and long tradition of being a place

where debates take place and even people whose views you find

abhorrent would get a hearing. That is something to hold onto and that

is what Lord Patten is saying, we should not let contemporary views

and prejudices influence what other traditions that universities hold

dear. I think there is a feeling abroad that the whole kind of

intolerant feeling has gone too far. My own paper had a story recently

about the free-speech groups that are popping up at universities, to

provide a space where people can debate and discuss.

Indeed. OK, let's stick with the Telegraph and another story, bail

system raises jihadi risk, according to the Prime Minister. What has he

said? Obviously this comes in the wake of

the chap who skipped police Bale and became the new Jihadi John,

Siddhartha Dhar, the bouncy Castle salesman if you read the newspapers.

-- police bail. Police bail system is not tough enough, according to

some. He said very much, after the police themselves have said, they

will tighten up in this area. It is a very lively issue and lots

of people feel strongly about it. It is all very well to say that but it

will need lots of laws redrafting. That is true but the figure at the

bottom of the article should be a wake-up call. There are 100

terrorism suspects on police bail currently. I wonder how many of

those had to give up their passports so far and how many still have them.

In a situation like this, when it is a terrorism issue and a national

security issue there are things that can be done quite quickly.

OK, we must come to the photograph on the front of the daily Telegraph,

this story is everywhere today. James, it is your proprietor.

It is a heart-warming tale. Incurable romantic and a fourth time

around. Just to remind those who might not

know, he's marrying? Jerry Hall, but I have not got the

invite yet but I look forward to it. Lots of people will say can my

goodness, he's been married four Times, but she was not married to

Mick Jagger. I thought she had been married

before but maybe not, but I think it is nice. I don't think there should

be a limit on the number of times you can be married, it is a nice

story and if Hello and welcome to Sportsday.

Boring it
