Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
With me are the author and journalist Matthew Green | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
with a new report which highlights the plight of some | :00:20. | :00:38. | |
The Financial Times leads with claims from the British Retail | :00:39. | :00:47. | |
Consortium that one million jobs in retail will disappear by 2025, | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
as technology and the rising minimum wage reshape the industry. | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
The Daily Express states that migrants will have received benefits | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
to the tune of one-billion pounds in the last year. | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
The Metro headlines comments from Eurosceptic Cabinet minister | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
Iain Duncan Smith, who says David Cameron has a low opinion | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
of the British people for suggesting a Brexit would be a major gamble. | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
The Daily Telegraph headlines a leaked report which suggests up | :01:06. | :01:07. | |
to 20,000 people in need of emergency care were denied | :01:08. | :01:10. | |
immediate access to ambulances so that officials could meet | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
The Daily Mail carries claims - made in a new book - | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
which suggests former Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair had | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
decided to invade Iraq in early 2002. | :01:21. | :01:22. | |
The i paper headlines a report, which says | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
Chancellor George Osbourne's northern powerhouse | :01:26. | :01:26. | |
And so here in an increasingly digital age on a linear digital TV | :01:27. | :01:42. | |
channel watched in real-time, we mark the launch of a newspaper, | :01:43. | :01:51. | |
printed on newspaper. It is called New Day. Not every day do we get to | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
review a newspaper with issue one written on it. It does raise the | :01:57. | :02:04. | |
question, is anyone insane enough to launch a newspaper in the current | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
era? Some people have stopped buying a newspaper because they cannot find | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
a newspaper to buy. This one is hoping to be it. There are half a | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
million people out there who would like a mid-market, unbiased tabloid | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
and they are intending to provide it. What I do find odd about this, | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
and I do applaud it and hope it succeeds. The more people are | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
reading newspapers, the more likely that Matthew and I will keep our | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
jobs. The publishers said beforehand, and the editor, that | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
this was going to be an upbeat and optimistic paper. The front pages | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
leading with a very good story but a deeply depressing one about | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
five-year-olds who have to look after their parents without any | :02:48. | :02:50. | |
assistance. I do not think that is quite in keeping with what they say | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
the new brand will be for. If we look at the fact the Prime Minister | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
has written for the newspaper inside, quite a big spread, isn't | :02:59. | :03:08. | |
it? On pages 12 and 13, about Britain', or not, in the European | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
Union. It is promising as not to tell us what to think. Is it telling | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
us what to think if you have the Prime Minister in it? It has the | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
Prime Minister telling us what to think. The point is, they are going | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
to try to avoid having a very clear right-wing editorial stance that | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
other mid-market papers have. That is where they are trying to | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
differentiate themselves. The column by David Cameron is reiterated what | :03:32. | :03:41. | |
he has been saying up until now about Brexit, warning what will | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
happen if Britain does leave the EU in June. A woman called Emma is | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
undecided and she wants to hear the arguments. A lot of people are | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
saying that. There are so much arguing going on, they cannot | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
actually find out what the issues at stake are. The fascinating thing | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
about this piece. She says she wants to know the facts. The things that | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
have put her off the EU have been things like the insistence we could | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
not buy bent cucumbers and that children under eight were banned | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
from blowing up balloons. What is fascinating is the children under | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
eight ban was complete nonsense. All the EU said was put warnings on the | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
packets that people have died blowing up balloons. The bent | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
cucumbers was in about 2008 because they said this was ridiculous. This | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
is what she remembers about the EU. It shows it is really hard to take | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
in what is really going on. We remember random facts that are not | :04:42. | :04:49. | |
always accurate. Brexit would mean ten years of uncertainty. This is | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
Downing Street. A leaked report that the Guardian has got hold of, that | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
says it will take ten years for Britain to extricate itself from the | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
EU. Under the rules that will be a two-year process. According to the | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
leaked government report, you'll be so complicated with all the | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
different issues from the common agricultural policy and single | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
market access and fishing rights, a whole long list of things that need | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
resolving, it will take a decade. The economy will suffer and | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
investment will get held up. The likes of Boris Johnson so this is | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
nonsense, we apparently capable of ploughing our own furrow and can | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
forge trade deals with other parts of the world. We do not have to be | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
relied on the EU to that extent. This is rather convincing. If you | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
think how long it has taken us to get the agreement of the EU, to | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
think about whether Britain can have a few amendments in order to be able | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
to hold a referendum, think how long it will take to negotiate every | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
single aspect of our lives. We have been integrated in EE you for 30 | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
years. There have been regulations about medicines. One key point is | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
that other countries will not be able to start negotiating with as | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
well we are still in complicated initiations would be you. They will | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
not know how free we are to negotiate with them. The whole thing | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
does sound like it will be an almighty mess in which lawyers will | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
be involved for perhaps up to a decade. The Metro is suggesting we | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
have more confidence in ourselves. This is Iain Duncan-Smith thing | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
Cameron has a low opinion of the British and this is where it is | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
starting to become a little acrimonious. His view is we were | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
very successful as a country before the EU and we can be again. This is | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
a grand statement which does not mean anything. We may be a great | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
country, a grand country. The greatest country on Earth, according | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
to Iain Duncan-Smith. The point is the simple complicate it fact of the | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
way the world operates. They are not saying Britain is not great. What is | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
extraordinary is the people who want to leave the EU are complaining | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
bitterly about Cameron being rude about them but here they are | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
launching into a full frontal attack on the Prime Minister. It is | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
inconsistent. This is where the arguments between the in group and | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
the outgroup get in the way for a lot of people who are trying to | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
plough their way through all of this. It comes about a political | :07:21. | :07:24. | |
feud rather than the actual issues. The other one of which has been | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
overlooked in all of these stories, are the EU countries we are leaving | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
going to be in a mood to cut us a good deal if we leave? That seems to | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
be a big question. In the Telegraph, patients die in 111 ambulance | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
scandal. Can you sum it up for us? It seems that in the south-east, | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
there was a particular ambulance trust who decided it could only meet | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
targets if it secretly kept ambulance waiting for an extra ten | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
minutes before they were sent out to emergency calls. The call handlers | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
for I'm blazers were on their way, the people having after-tax thought | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
ambulance is were on their way but they were delayed so that the trust | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
could be seen to be meeting its targets. Now it is out it is a total | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
scandal. It is part of the cuts. It is trust is desperately trying to do | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
what they can while thinking they do not have the resources to do them. | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
The one when one service has had a pretty bad rap, hasn't it? We must | :08:26. | :08:33. | |
always used 999 and exaggerate our illnesses. 11 deaths linked to this | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
essentially stopping the clock on calls on a certain number. Almost | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
being downgraded as if they were not so important. They are very -- there | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
is a sad case of a man who was waiting 35 minutes while having a | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
heart attack and he died. He would probably have survived had the | :08:58. | :09:02. | |
ambulance arrived. Many retail jobs will vanish by 2025. What a cheerful | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
selection of front pages you have? There is nothing that is joyful. We | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
will try to find something that is a bit funny. This is a rather | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
depressing headline, isn't it? A million retail jobs to vanish, | :09:18. | :09:21. | |
according to an industry body. They are saying pressure from the | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
increased minimum wage is going to force them to cut back on jobs. | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
George Osborne is hoping that by paying higher wages, employers will | :09:31. | :09:36. | |
get more value out of their employees and make them worth more. | :09:37. | :09:38. | |
Certainly retailers are warning that sales will shift online and a lot of | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
jobs will go. They are saying it is about technology and the internet | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
and the automated tools. It is pretty depressing. Automated tales | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
are something that makes me want to commit physical violence! They make | :09:55. | :09:58. | |
me want to cry. I would gladly pay more for a human being. One tell I | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
have come across says, surprising item in baggage area explanation I | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
would dread to think what I am shopping for. Finally, with the | :10:11. | :10:16. | |
Financial Times, luxury flats lose lustre for foreign buyers. This is | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
as close as we could find for getting good news out of papers. | :10:22. | :10:24. | |
50,000 luxury flats are being built in London at the moment, very few of | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
which are being bought by Londoners. Prime property is being bought by | :10:29. | :10:36. | |
people abroad. Actually foreigners are up to them any longer. Are they | :10:37. | :10:44. | |
in the wrong place? These are flats, including in Battersea Power | :10:45. | :10:46. | |
Station, which would look like a very desirable place to live. | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
Wouldn't it be great if Londoners could start to have flats that were | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
built but Londoners could afford, instead of having storage boxes in | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
the sky for the world was Max super rich? All sorts of strange things | :10:58. | :11:05. | |
are happening. -- the world's super-rich. Arrival of final and | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
cassette gives analogue new reach of life -- lease of life. We are going | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
backwards. On a linear TV channel, we should not lament that, it should | :11:19. | :11:26. | |
we? Keep watching in real-time. We'll be back again at 11:30 p.m.. | :11:27. | :11:37. |
