to join Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams in the fourth round. That | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
is in 15 minutes after the Papers. Hello and welcome to our look | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
at the morning's papers. With me are Martin Bentham, | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
home affairs Editor of the London Evening Standard and Lindsay | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
Watling, Westminster correspondent The Daily Express points to | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
the French Prime Minister's warning that the migrant crisis threatens | :00:21. | :00:31. | |
the very existence of the EU. The Independent claims that a US | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
health-care giant is making a fortune from the NHS but hardly | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
any paying corporation tax. The FT says Google has reached | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
a deal with the Treasury to pay "New drug to wipe out superbugs" is | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
the headline in the Times. The paper says British scientists | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
have spear-headed The Daily Mail claims | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
the Queen has shown "extraordinary" support for Lord Brammall, who was | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
falsely accused of child abuse. The Telegraph lead with the news | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
that more than 100 MPs want to end BT's monopoly of the broadband | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
cable, they say the service is The Guardian, in common with many | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
other papers, has a picture of the British actress Charlotte | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
Rampling on its front page. She's stepped into the Oscars | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
diversity row by claiming the objection, that not | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
a single non-white actor has been And finally, | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
The Sun claims Coca-Cola and Pepsi have vowed to slash sugar levels | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
in their products ahead of a Normal people never vow. Now of the | :01:22. | :01:49. | |
trail part to, a national disgrace. This is a very Daily Mirror story. | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
Just a warning in many ways come out there complaining that a contract | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
for new trains to replace these bone shaking ones that you can see on the | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
front of the paper, the Northern rail trains, has gone not to a | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
British firm, but to a Spanish firm that will make them overseas. The | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
problem is that it is damaging our rail industry, a great industry | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
invented in this country and exported all around the world, we | :02:24. | :02:30. | |
have always had a great tradition of making railways and so on, so there | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
that issue. Then there is the steel that is used in production of these | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
trains and the steel industry is and also to disarray at the moment, | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
losing jobs. They're not doing anything by allowing this contract | :02:46. | :02:47. | |
to go out of the country to support the beleaguered steel industry. But | :02:48. | :02:56. | |
do you want to automatically give it to a company in this country? There | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
was always that argument that can be made. The RMT has characterized this | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
as a kick in the teeth and I think many people in Port Talbot and other | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
areas where there have been severe job cuts will interpret this just | :03:09. | :03:15. | |
one way. A lack of support. The Sun, a number of companies say | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
they're going to cut their sugar levels but if you cut your sugar, | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
you usually replace it with something which is not usually any | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
healthier. I guess the question is by how much? There will still be a | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
large amount of sugar in these products, even if you cut the | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
sugar. Perhaps a better ideas to encourage children to drink water | :03:41. | :03:44. | |
and healthier juices and perhaps eat a banana rather than having serial | :03:45. | :03:54. | |
at breakfast. Good luck with that. The Prime Minister for the childhood | :03:55. | :04:02. | |
obesity strategy which will -- has a childhood obesity strategy which | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
will be published this quarter. One major problem is having too much | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
sugar and the government wants to move towards persuading the industry | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
to change its habits. This is what has been suggested is going to | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
happen. The problem is they don't always do that sufficiently and they | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
continue selling a lot of things which are quite unhealthy to | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
people. Use against Jamie Oliver, Boris Johnson, all of them who want | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
to introduce a sugar tax your London. It will be interesting to | :04:34. | :04:41. | |
see -- he is, whether it actually works or whether it is just to avoid | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
tougher sanctions from the government. It may be interesting to | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
see if it will work, they said paying 2p for plastic bags would | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
work but it has. Now moving on to the Times. This review of freedom of | :04:57. | :05:04. | |
information rules which was prompted by claims, which we should all | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
reject quite frankly, that these laws which were introduced by Labour | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
were somehow being misused and causing excess costs. This is all | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
about saying that public services come at the government and so on, it | :05:20. | :05:32. | |
is saying that private contract -- contractors should be run publicly. | :05:33. | :05:42. | |
If you can't obtain information about them, obviously that is a | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
great problem. Prisons is one of the main ones, it is a private | :05:47. | :05:54. | |
contractor running a public area. But how likely is it that it won't | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
just be expanded? This is calling for the government to go even | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
further. The fear is that things are going to be curtailed and there may | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
even be a charge imposed for making a request, that is one of the fears | :06:07. | :06:13. | |
campaigners have. I think it is unlikely but as Martin says, it will | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
be welcome. I think it might happen because it might allow the | :06:20. | :06:21. | |
government to do some of the things you are talking about, restricted on | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
one hand and use it somewhere else, offer something and take some of the | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
things you are talking about, restricted on one hand and use it | :06:29. | :06:30. | |
somewhere else, offer something it takes nothing else away. The | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
Financial Times, Google and the ?130 deal for back taxes. They say they | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
have not done anything wrong but I think most people will be pleased to | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
read this story although they might say, should the big companies be | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
doing even more? This is the news that Google has reached a settlement | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
with the UK to pay ?130 million in back taxes and higher taxes in the | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
future. Is at the start of a crackdown? There was a lot in front | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
of the accounts committee but if they haven't done anything wrong, | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
why do they owe back taxes? There is a moral case, isn't there? It may be | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
because George Osborne has introduced this year diverted | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
profits tax were people who have lots of economic activity in a | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
particular country and have been shifting it to other countries, the | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
allegation has been that their real activities in this country and they | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
should be paying tax here. I don't know whether it is after whether it | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
is simply the idea that they feel, perhaps with the new regime, that | :07:31. | :07:39. | |
they should make a PR gesture. Guardian, risky drinking fuels | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
alcohol industry sales. This is quite a startling headline, how much | :07:44. | :07:51. | |
problem drinkers boost the coffers. They have been accused of | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
irresponsible marketing, and there is a claim that they make most of | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
their money from people who have problems with rink. These statistics | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
are English only but there is a similar problem in Scotland. The | :08:04. | :08:07. | |
SNP, Nicola Sturgeon is trying to bring in minimum unit pricing, | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
they're trying to take it north of the border. It is not surprising | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
that the people who drink most of the alcohol are buying the most. On | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
the other hand, it is exactly parallel with the sugar tax story. | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
There is the same issue of big companies selling lots of products, | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
it is in their interest to do that, but if those products are unhealthy, | :08:31. | :08:34. | |
are they doing enough to exercise responsibility and trying to | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
directed away from the people who are going to suffer the most? The | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
allegation here in this story is that they are not and that the | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
marketing is done in a way that Willie Cridge people who have | :08:45. | :08:46. | |
problems with rink to keep doing it. There is done in a way that Willy | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
Cridge people who have problems with rink to keep doing it. There's a | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
drink responsibly label on everything -- will encourage people | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
who have problems with drink to keep doing it. That's true. But they are | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
selling cute bottles at insanely low prices. It still goes on. Up | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
promotions. That is part of the problem -- cheap promotions. Staying | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
with the Guardian, a picture of Charlotte rambling who has got | :09:20. | :09:29. | |
herself embroiled in this diverse city row -- Rampling. Racist to | :09:30. | :09:37. | |
whites, she says. She has stepped into a bit of a problem here. She | :09:38. | :09:45. | |
has. She stated it very strongly, she seems to be getting a lot of | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
criticism. Obviously no one wants to think that they have won and award | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
because of the colour of their skin but I do think if you look at the | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
statistics in the article, analysis by the LA Times found that 93% of | :10:00. | :10:08. | |
the members of the Academy were white and 96% male with an average | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
age of 63. It is not level playing field. She has been very brave to | :10:15. | :10:22. | |
say this. She shouldn't be denounced for giving an honest answer. What | :10:23. | :10:32. | |
she is really saying is, why classify people? These days people | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
are more or less accepted, obviously you can argue that, but she is | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
saying people should be taken as the person. Isn't the point that if you | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
look at the makeup of the Academy, the people who make the decisions | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
are not representative of American society? On Twitter there has been | :10:53. | :11:02. | |
chatter about these statistics and the data is very readily available, | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
but when user has said that even compared with black actors and | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
actresses, Asian people and Latinas have even more to complain about -- | :11:12. | :11:20. | |
Latinos. The people nominated for the ward should be the best people, | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
it would be good if that reflected a broad spectrum of society. That is | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
what you want to go towards. It won't always be an exact | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
representation, nor should it be. I think that is really what she is | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
trying to say. Unfortunately, on this occasion and historically, | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
there will be very few people who agree with her. The Daily Mail on | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
page three. A test that could tell a woman if IVF will work for her. It | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
is very expensive and not a nice process to go through for people, so | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
how does this test work? This is a test that tells women if IVF is | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
futile for them. The Daily Mail says it works by detecting whether their | :12:07. | :12:20. | |
wounds -- wombs carry the correct DNA for it to work. Many women are | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
leaving it later to start a family and this is usually one of the only | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
ways. It might not stop you trying anyway, but you would have a more | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
realistic knowledge of what your odds were, which would perhaps make | :12:35. | :12:40. | |
it easier. Although I am sure if really wanted to try and still | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
unsuccessful, it would be demoralizing and upsetting. I guess | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
there is a danger of someone who might be put off completely from | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
trying because they get a result from one of these tests. And they | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
aren't always right. Not always. That's all for tonight. | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
Coming up next it's time for Sportsday. | :13:04. | :13:09. |
