prepare to defend their Davis Cup title. We will head to the women's | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
football team in Florida. Hello, and welcome to our look ahead | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
to what the papers will be With me are Miranda Green | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
from the Financial Times, and the Telegraph's media | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
commentator Neil Midgely. Before we hear from them let's show | :00:20. | :00:34. | |
you... Know, we are going to go straight to the Metro, we are not | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
going to tease you extract there we go, live television! Britain will | :00:40. | :00:42. | |
face consequences once President Hollande, that is the pretty brand | :00:43. | :00:54. | |
headline -- blunt headline. David Cameron had a summit with Francois | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
Hollande today, after which President Hollande gave a press | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
conference in which he said quite carefully that he wasn't threatening | :01:01. | :01:04. | |
any harm to the friendly relations between our two great nations. But | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
he did say that he wanted the British people to be aware that | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
there would because quinces of voting to leave the EU, not least | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
the question of immigration, because the Jungle camp in Calais, this | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
question of people flocking up through the continent and then they | :01:22. | :01:24. | |
stopped at the channel. He was saying this would not apply any | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
more, effectively these people would come to the UK as not be stopped in | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
France. This is a significant intervention, because a few days ago | :01:33. | :01:43. | |
David Cameron tried to argue this and was sort of shouted down and | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
accuse of scaremongering, which is the word of the week, but this is | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
President Hollande saying, no, absolutely, the French would no | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
longer hold British immigration inside French borders. Quite | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
significant. Let's talk about the word scaremongering. We are seeing | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
these headlines in other papers and globally, they use the word | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
scaremongering, that is going to be used by those who want out of the | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
EU. We are hearing a lot of this word at the moment. It goes back to | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
the Scottish independence referendum and project fear, the staying | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
together in the UK campaign was blocked project fear because it is | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
all about, this will be the great unknown if we broke up the UK, if we | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
broke up the EU that is the great unknown, lots of terrible things to | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
be scared. I have to say, not sure that David Cameron will want people | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
to be reading this. It is probably quite good for him that we get this | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
out of the way early in the campaign, because actually threats | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
from the French president are not, psychologically, you know the kind | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
of, the British voter's psychology I don't think is the thing, oh, the | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
French president thinks we should stay in the EU and is threatening us | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
if we leave, in which case we will do exactly what the French president | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
says, I don't think that is how your average British voter thinks, I | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
think they are a bit more contrary than that, especially whether French | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
is concerned. It is a difficult balance, if your strategy is based | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
on warning people about risks, if you overdo it you become like a | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
parent whose child is no longer listening. How to base a whole | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
campaign on play it safe, don't leave, when there is concern that | :03:19. | :03:24. | |
the other side are going to accuse you of scaremongering, also that the | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
voters will cease to believe your warnings of the risks. It is a | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
really tricky walk. The thing about the Jungle camp at Calais, as we | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
have discussed before on the papers, that is a bilateral deal between | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
France and the UK, it is not technically affected by Britain | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
leaving the EU. So what the French president is effectively saying is, | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
I will take my back at my ball and my stumps home if you decide to | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
leave the EU. -- my bat. Is it not EU policy that controls it? Feruz | :03:57. | :04:04. | |
and EU asylum process, it isn't working -- there is an EU asylum | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
process. The specific deal allows us to do British immigration tracks on | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
French soil, this is an Anglo-French deal, not EU deal. President | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
Hollande is then, if you leave the EU I will have a strong Pantera pie | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
thought our bilateral deal. -- I will have a strop. That is a | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
small-minded, petty way of looking at things. If he is not trying to | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
tear up the historical ties and all the lovely history we have with the | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
French. I'm not sure about that. Another EU referendum story emerged | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
today, much more in the Telegraph tomorrow, is about how top business | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
leader says he sees a bright future in Brexit, a comment that created | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
divisions within the business community, particularly between | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
small and large businesses. It is really interesting, this. There | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
several associations that represent employers at the CBI, which is the | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
big employers, there is also the engineering employers Federation, | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
there is the BCC, which this story is about, the British Chambers of | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
Commerce. And there is the small businesses Association as well. They | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
all take a different position. This is the BCC leader, John Longworth, | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
the Director-General, saying that he personally favours an exit. It is | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
quite an interesting story actually because it then goes into the fact | :05:30. | :05:33. | |
that the Business Secretary Sajid Javid of course is known to be a | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
lifelong sort of Eurosceptic, but is actually backing David Cameron's | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
deal and backing the campaign to get the people of this country devote | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
the Main. Again, it is another story which brings up this idea of which | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
side is the risk on -- to vote remained Macri. This guy is saying, | :05:51. | :05:57. | |
we could have a great future. Sajid Javid is saying, there is risk on | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
both side and there is a lot more certainty on staying in, that is | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
from a lifelong Eurosceptic. It just draws attention to the fact that | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
this whole campaign, we have got four months of this, the whole | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
campaign is going to be, where do you see the balance of risk? And | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
interesting quote from Mr Longworth, he said, in the long run we have the | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
capacity and capability to create a brighter economic future outside of | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
the EU, just as we would have done had we had the opportunity to this | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
day in a truly reformed EU. Which of course goes back to the Boris | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
position, which Boris has now I think resigned from, for today, this | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
week, which is, you know, if we say, no, the only countries that the EU | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
ever listens to our countries which say no, if we vote no in the | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
referendum that doesn't mean not out, it means go back to the | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
negotiating table. There are echoes of that and what Longworth has said. | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
It did not work for the Greeks, they thought they could hold the EU to | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
ransom by voting no to something, and what happened after that was | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
that they were just punished, essentially. Whilst business leaders | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
are arguing this out, it is becoming increasingly relevant, it is not | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
just about economics, it is about jobs and businesses and surviving | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
and who does what jobs. It suddenly starts to become even more relevant. | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
It is about a holiday home! That is on the front page of The Times. We | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
haven't got it now. The Times is worried about your holiday home in | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
France. And what Brexit would do to that. The freedom of travel for your | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
holiday, absolutely. We will move onto the Telegraph, and talk about | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
the US elections. Very interesting events today. Donald Trump, as you | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
saw on BBC News, dividing the Republicans. Mitt Romney coming out, | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
this is something the Telegraph reported on their front page, Mitt | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
Romney lasts dangerous, quoting him, Trump -- blasts. He said worse than | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
dangerous. It was wonderful, wonderful fun to watch speech | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
because he did what the American -- the Americans call fried him. He | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
said Trump's promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump | :08:18. | :08:20. | |
University, pretty cutting. When Mitt Romney was running for | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
president last time, he was endorsed by Donald Trump. Donald Trump have | :08:26. | :08:29. | |
hit back immediately to might with his own press conference in which he | :08:30. | :08:33. | |
pointed out that Mitt Romney he says begged for the endorsement of Donald | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
Trump, he would have gone on his knees to get me to endorse him, Key | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
said. This fighting at the top of the Republican party as the | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
establishment tries to stop Trump, actually it is a bit of a gift to | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
Trump. The difficulty is that the Republican establishment, as today | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
the personified by Mitt Romney, doesn't actually have an | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
alternative, and apparently viable alternative to Trump. I was chatting | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
to a friend of America dock you have been hearing rumours? I heard | :09:04. | :09:07. | |
rumours that Romney will himself drawing the race. If you go to Mitt | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
Romney's website, it is paid for by Romney for president Inc. You heard | :09:15. | :09:16. | |
it here first! You'll both be back at 11.30pm | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
for another look at the stories But coming up next, | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
it's time for Sportsday. | :09:24. | :09:29. |
