Coming up next, we look at Mark Kermode's thumbs up or otherwise in | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
The Film Review. Hello and welcome to | :00:00. | :00:17. | |
our look ahead to what the papers With me are the journalist | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
and political analyst Mina Al-Oraibi and Laura Hughes, | :00:20. | :00:26. | |
political correspondent The Sunday Telegraph leads with | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
Boris Johnson attacking what he call's David Cameron's Agents | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
of Fear in the ongoing EU The Sunday Times has the same story | :00:37. | :00:39. | |
plus a warning from the Justice Secretary, Michael Gove that | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
the EU "fuels terror and Fascism". The Independent has an exclusive | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
on what it says is a cover-up of the treatment | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
of terror suspects in the UK. "NHS to harvest babies' organs" is | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
the rather alarming headline The Sunday Express says Britannia | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
will no longer rule the waves claiming the EU wants to | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
take charge of the UK coastguard as No surprise as Europe once again is | :01:08. | :01:24. | |
the dominant theme in the papers. This claim by Michael Gove as a | :01:25. | :01:30. | |
campaigner for leaving the EU, that the EU fuels terror and fascism, is | :01:31. | :01:35. | |
pretty striking. This is Michael Gove's first interview with the | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
newspaper, as it announces that we should be voting to leave the EU. It | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
says that on the one hand it is chilling terror because it is not | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
allowing Britain to make decisions about how its spies can act, et | :01:53. | :01:58. | |
cetera, particularly to do with the European Court of justice. He says | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
we need to not be under its thumb any more. This comes at the same | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
time as Boris Johnson is also speaking. He said, the power to take | :02:06. | :02:13. | |
decisions about counter-terrorist surveillance is being taken away | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
from the EU. In effect, the UK has kept quite a lot of its powers. | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
Opting out of some of the policing roles. Yes. Some of those who have | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
been detained on terrorist charges have used European courts to avoid | :02:28. | :02:37. | |
being deported. We did have one famous case, where a man was able to | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
delay being deported to the US. But there is no causality. Michael Gove | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
is just saying that the far right is stronger across the continent than | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
at any time since the 60s. That is true, and worrying, but it doesn't | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
explain how it England leads the EU it will suddenly some house swing | :03:01. | :03:08. | |
left. We had Liam Fox a couple of days ago saying that the EU hasn't | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
done a particularly good job in stopping the spread of extremism, | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
with people like Jean-Claude Juncker saying that it used to be the source | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
of peace on the continent. But this is quite a challenge to the position | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
of Theresa May, the Home Secretary. It is interesting as well in the | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
context of this project fear. These characters have been accusing the | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
government of scaring people, but so is this. This isn't just about | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
sovereignty, this is now about security. You will be safer if we | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
leave the EU. I would say this is also scaremongering, and Michael | :03:48. | :03:53. | |
Gove has contradicted Theresa May and is undermining his own | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
government. It raises an interesting question about what happens after | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
the referendum. Effectively, suggesting that a document put out | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
by the Home Office is a dodgy dossier, undermining those | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
supporting stain. Now we have restaurants and effectively | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
attacking David Cameron and people in Downing Street saying that they | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
were somehow responsible for John Longworth being suspended because he | :04:22. | :04:29. | |
had spoken out in favour of Brexit. I think there will be a reshuffle | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
after the referendum, but I think Michael Gove is also looking at the | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
possibility that Boris Johnson runs for the leadership, and he has put | :04:39. | :04:45. | |
all his eggs in that basket now. You think he has transferred his loyalty | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
from David Cameron, effectively? Yes. In this article says that Boris | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
Johnson is going to war with David Cameron. Threatening people's | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
safety, that is the number-1 responsibility of the government, so | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
to say that what they want to do is undermining safety is crossing a | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
line that is not often crossed. People who sit in David Cameron's | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
cabinet next Theresa May and David Cameron... A legacy of bitterness | :05:13. | :05:16. | |
out of this could be pretty powerful. Yes, are they putting | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
their eggs in the basket is about future leadership. This is also the | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
week that the dodgy dossier that Iain Duncan Smith said, and David | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
Cameron making a speech at Chatham House earlier saying that all | :05:34. | :05:39. | |
alternatives to the EU would be detrimental. It really has been | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
realigning of the Conservative Party. I mentioned John Longworth, | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
and that is on the front page of the Sunday Telegraph. Is this conspiracy | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
theory or is there something in this? A suggestion that Downing | :05:55. | :06:03. | |
Street might have led the chairman of the PCC to do this. -- BCC. David | :06:04. | :06:31. | |
Davis is calling from a full statement about the comments made or | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
the suspension. It will be interesting to see how they | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
respond. Are you surprised? IM. The fact that he gave the statement that | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
in thinking personally that it would be better for Britain to get out of | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
the EU, there are no personal views when you are the head of the British | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
Chamber of Commerce. It is said to be part of the conversation, how | :06:57. | :07:05. | |
people will decide to vote, but there has not been a denial that | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
conversations were had with Downing Street about this. Certain members | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
of the board may have certain ties with Downing Street, so they may | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
have had conversations. Whether that led directly to him being pushed | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
out,... In the end, the official position was that they are neutral, | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
and he has broken that. At their annual conference in front of all | :07:29. | :07:39. | |
these people. A lot of people were dumbfounded and angry about this. | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
This has slightly gone against what his own members actually. And | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
because they were divided, that is one of the reasons... Lets stay with | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
Europe, I feel we will be saying that a lot. That is not an | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
indication about what you should do in July, just staying with the | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
story. Scotland hasn't got a wave from the story! EU seeks control of | :08:07. | :08:13. | |
our coasts. Yes, this is the Sunday express telling us why the EU can be | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
very dangerous for Britain. It is not clear what the plans are, but | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
the story says the EU has drawn up plans to seize control of the | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
British coastguard service as it creates a Europewide border force. | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
The article explains that this is part of trying to keep Europe safe, | :08:33. | :08:35. | |
dealing with the migrant crisis and the issues of refugees and so forth. | :08:36. | :08:44. | |
But the article does say that the government would not be involved in | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
anything... This should not actually apply to you. Is this a draft, a | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
white paper? That is not clear. What is clear is that the Immigration | :08:58. | :09:06. | |
Minister has said that we will support the strengthening of the | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
borders, but Britain is not part of the Schengen agreement, and we will | :09:13. | :09:19. | |
not be part of this. So, we have Russian jets buzzing about in the | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
skies of Britain, and this wonderful image of Britannia on the inside of | :09:26. | :09:33. | |
the Express. Casually defending our borders. With a rather docile lion. | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
Looking to Britannia to rise up and project our stores growed up protect | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
our shores -- to rise up and protect our shores. This is a kind of | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
headline that would make me buy a paper in the morning. This is a good | :09:54. | :10:00. | |
grabbing headline. The story is basically that doctors will approach | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
mothers who have been told that their babies will not be able to | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
survive once they are born, and to encourage them to carry that child | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
so that the organs can be donated when the child is born. It is | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
highlighting a massive issue that we have in this country, our lack of | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
organ donors. 7000 people think the year on this list, three people | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
dying today because they can't get organs. It is described as | :10:26. | :10:33. | |
ghoulish... It is a difficult ethical... It is. Can you imagine | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
approaching a parent who has just had this news. It will be stillborn | :10:37. | :10:44. | |
or if not it may be severely disabled and won't live long, and | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
then saying, if you take it to full term at least the organs can be | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
used. I would suggest that the NHS may go towards encouraging that. It | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
is saying they will be given advice on going ahead, so ordinarily they | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
may be advised to abort the baby, but they are saying to go ahead so | :11:05. | :11:07. | |
we can use the organs. It is interesting, because they are saying | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
it could be a situation where the baby was all but dead, but they | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
could find a way to keep it alive in the mother's uterus, in order to use | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
the organs. Having said that, they say the numbers are striking. So far | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
only 11 babies under two months in the last two years have actually | :11:28. | :11:33. | |
been used for organ transplants. It illustrates what we are saying about | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
how striking this is that NHS blood and transplant has issued a | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
statement in the last few minutes, and it says it wants to reassure the | :11:41. | :11:43. | |
public we have no way of knowing about anybody who is pregnant with a | :11:44. | :11:49. | |
baby who won't survive. The only way we would find out about that is if | :11:50. | :12:01. | |
the parents approached us about wanting to donate. There is no way | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
that any of us would approach parents encouraging them to carry a | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
baby to full term purely to use the organs. Fellow Mac they have spoken | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
to one transplant surgeon, who says that they are looking at rolling it | :12:16. | :12:18. | |
out as a viable source. We are running out of time, but let me give | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
the last word to the story on the front of the Sunday Times. This is | :12:24. | :12:32. | |
the new guidance has been offered to schools. They are worried our young | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
people are using too many exclamation marks. They spend a lot | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
of time on Facebook, text in, so... They said they were worried that too | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
many are using it in text messages and social media. What | :12:53. | :12:55. | |
seven-year-old is sending text messages? There is an exclamation | :12:56. | :13:03. | |
mark in your voice! Thank you both very much, it was a pleasure to have | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
you with us. That is just about it, thank you for your company this | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
evening. We will have more news at the top of the hour. Now, The Film | :13:13. | :13:14. | |
Review. | :13:15. | :13:16. |
