That is all from Sportsday. Coming up in a moment, The Papers.

:00:00.:00:18.

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

:00:19.:00:21.

With me are the Huffington Post's Entertainment Editor Caroline Frost

:00:22.:00:25.

and Parliamentary journalist Tony Grew.

:00:26.:00:31.

Do not worry I have checked the tax returns and they are all right! You

the Daily Express, as David Cameron backs the right of parents to pass

wealth to their children. And The Daily Telegraph also leads

that they say have led to many The Times reports that more families

:01:16.:01:18.

are installing cameras to protect elderly relatives from theft

:01:19.:01:22.

by care workers. And the Financial Times says the EU

:01:23.:01:27.

is under pressure to block a deal that could reduce the number

:01:28.:01:30.

of mobile phone providers you had the pleasure of being in the

:01:31.:01:49.

House of Commons today. You would think it was the end of January,

:01:50.:01:54.

with all these tax returns being filed! The Prime Minister came to

:01:55.:02:03.

the Commons, the first time it had sat since the Easter recess. The

:02:04.:02:10.

first five minutes of his statement was all about his own taxation of

:02:11.:02:16.

fierce, with relation to his parents. What was interesting was

:02:17.:02:22.

that while the Prime Minister was speaking, the Labour leader 's tax

:02:23.:02:28.

return was suddenly launched. We will talk about him in a minute. All

:02:29.:02:34.

the politicians coming out, the mere of London, the Labour leader, the

:02:35.:02:44.

Chancellor of the extra. What is behind this? The view of the Prime

:02:45.:02:50.

Minister is that the Prime Minister, the Chancellor and the shadow

:02:51.:02:58.

versions on the opposition bench should all make the tax returns

:02:59.:03:08.

public. Here are some MPs seeing the public mood is that we have to be

:03:09.:03:14.

transparent. MPs have been running scared from the public since the

:03:15.:03:16.

expenses scandal. I saw the tweets and it says Jeremy

:03:17.:03:57.

Corbyn has been earning an MP's salary and does not have any savings

:03:58.:04:01.

and do you trust this man to run the economy? Is that how we want things

:04:02.:04:15.

to go? In America politicians don't have too publish their tax returns,

:04:16.:04:19.

but they have two published their medical records. If you are going to

:04:20.:04:22.

run the country, the public should know as much about you as possible.

:04:23.:04:29.

Is making all MPs reveal their tax returns going to far?

:04:30.:04:42.

I wonder what would satisfy the public. Their frowns in the house

:04:43.:04:53.

because David Cameron has been seen to pay too much money because he has

:04:54.:04:57.

earned too much money, but someone who doesn't earn enough is seen as

:04:58.:05:03.

not making the grade either. Jeremy Corbyn talked about the need for

:05:04.:05:09.

trust. I was reminded about the husband the mobile phone. If you

:05:10.:05:14.

trusted me, you would not to look. If you trusted me, you would show me

:05:15.:05:19.

everything in your phone. I am thinking we should elect people that

:05:20.:05:22.

we trust and then leave them to get on with running the country. This

:05:23.:05:27.

seems to be a distraction. As you were saying and Jacob Rees Mogg

:05:28.:05:37.

alluded to this today, the expenses scandal. People who are representing

:05:38.:05:46.

us might not be kosher in certain matters. That is go to the Times.

:05:47.:05:53.

Family firm pays Osborne ?45,000, but no corporation tax. That is

:05:54.:05:59.

correct. Companies can carry over losses. He has been paid a dividend

:06:00.:06:06.

as a shareholder. That is not a tax dodge. It is legal for them to do

:06:07.:06:13.

and lots of companies do that. They can take a loss and roll it over for

:06:14.:06:21.

a couple of years and then pay corporation tax. So why is the

:06:22.:06:25.

front-page headline there. Nothing illegal about it. Because I know how

:06:26.:06:35.

rich Cameron and Osborne. We now know exactly down to the last pound

:06:36.:06:40.

how much they are worth. Again, for me, we made a significant cultural

:06:41.:06:51.

shift in our politics. The much more important legal documents from

:06:52.:06:57.

Panama that we we have got of focus on, because it is about politicians

:06:58.:07:03.

and celebrities, and the calls we want to know that Boris at paid

:07:04.:07:08.

nearly ?1 million in tax. Why are none of us infuriated by Boris's tax

:07:09.:07:19.

bill? That is bigger, so it should be more infuriating, but it's about

:07:20.:07:25.

this dodge. There is no suggestion that there has been a dodge. We knew

:07:26.:07:30.

that Boris was well paid, so we are not surprised. We know he has

:07:31.:07:40.

written bestselling books. He has a significant other income. Also he is

:07:41.:07:49.

not in the Cabinet, he is an MP. But yes, we are getting into the

:07:50.:07:53.

situation now where this could become normal and one of the

:07:54.:07:57.

concerns is it would further put of good people you want to be in public

:07:58.:08:00.

service. They will think if they are going to dig into things that were

:08:01.:08:10.

legitimately private a year ago, and just to point this out, Churchill

:08:11.:08:16.

would not have got through this. He's finances were shocking.

:08:17.:08:23.

Shockingly wealthy? No, in disarray. It is great for us as journalists

:08:24.:08:28.

because great stories will come up, even just from these returns, but as

:08:29.:08:33.

I said, there is some concern, and one Tory MP made a comment where he

:08:34.:08:40.

said anyone who is attacking the Prime Minister hates wealth. And if

:08:41.:08:45.

we keep that up, we will end up with a House of Commons full of low

:08:46.:08:51.

achievers. The front page of the Metro, Caroline. Going back to Mr

:08:52.:08:56.

Corbyn, the tax dodger. He filed his return late and had to pay a ?110

:08:57.:09:02.

fine. I'm sure people will have sympathy with him. David Cameron has

:09:03.:09:07.

been working so hard to present himself as an everyman with summer

:09:08.:09:15.

trips to Cornwall and the Canary Islands and tucking away the estate

:09:16.:09:18.

in the Highlands and Jeremy Corbyn has done it by messing up his tax

:09:19.:09:25.

return. He has done what every single person has done because they

:09:26.:09:29.

are not organised because they are so busy. We are now going to go to

:09:30.:09:36.

the financial Times. British Steel is back. Would not want to give the

:09:37.:09:43.

impression that tax returns were the anything is discussed in the Commons

:09:44.:09:48.

today. Interesting the form of words the government is using. Coinvestors

:09:49.:09:55.

means partly nationalised. How could be party of Margaret Thatcher the

:09:56.:10:01.

considering partly renationalising the still industry that her

:10:02.:10:08.

government sold in 1988? There are lots of factors involved. The still

:10:09.:10:12.

works in the North of England were not given this level of support. But

:10:13.:10:17.

there is an election in May and the Tories are hoping to do well. There

:10:18.:10:23.

are factors that have come into play as to why support has been given,

:10:24.:10:28.

but as a country, it is probably not good if our in Tyers steel industry

:10:29.:10:34.

collapses and we can't create steel. It would be a real problem.

:10:35.:10:39.

Caroline, the suggestion that British Steel, at least the name is

:10:40.:10:44.

back, and the fact the government is investing in the industry in a

:10:45.:10:48.

wholehearted way suggest it does have a real future now? I mean, it

:10:49.:10:55.

feels like it is going into vintage status. You know when things are

:10:56.:10:59.

really on Trent then go out of fashion, then go so far at a fashion

:11:00.:11:03.

that you get this new nest out of the something that as you said, was

:11:04.:11:10.

an enormous brand. We are all too young, obviously, but a proper blast

:11:11.:11:14.

from the past. You do wonder where it is going and if this is a

:11:15.:11:18.

re-emergence in an industry that we thought had disappeared. Families

:11:19.:11:25.

should put cameras into homes of elderly relatives. Caroline? This

:11:26.:11:31.

cuts to the heart of anyone who has elderly relatives. The idea that you

:11:32.:11:39.

spend your money, you go to great attention and care to get someone to

:11:40.:11:44.

look after them and then the times with a story like this. The carer is

:11:45.:11:50.

caught not only neglecting her awards, but exploiting the situation

:11:51.:11:54.

and picking in her purse. Experts are now suggesting that more people

:11:55.:12:00.

put CCTV cameras within the homes as both a disincentive and a way of

:12:01.:12:04.

catching people out. I can't stand stories like this. They make me sad.

:12:05.:12:09.

It makes you wonder why there are not CCTV is all over this -- CCTV is

:12:10.:12:18.

all over homes. There has been a spike in these incidents. There is

:12:19.:12:24.

nothing about this that is not depressing. One aspect of it is it

:12:25.:12:35.

is easy to blame other people -- blame elderly people. They are

:12:36.:12:39.

senile. They are vulnerable and it is tragic that carers are taking

:12:40.:12:44.

advantage of them. The actual carer is looking up to see if she can find

:12:45.:12:48.

the CCTV camera. She is looking in the wrong direction. Then she

:12:49.:12:54.

pilfered the purse. Now to the express. Tom Jones's wife has died.

:12:55.:13:04.

They had been married for 59 years. They met when they were 12, got

:13:05.:13:10.

married when they were 16. It is interesting. Tom Jones has been

:13:11.:13:14.

famous so long. He has had different Carnation. Welsh valley boy, the

:13:15.:13:22.

Vegas years, LA, seducing various women across the globe, as he has

:13:23.:13:27.

always professed. The whole time his wife has been in the background. She

:13:28.:13:32.

came to the fore last jed when he published his memoir and talked

:13:33.:13:35.

about the fact that he may have had all of these other ladies in his

:13:36.:13:40.

life but only one woman had his heart and sadly he lost her over the

:13:41.:13:44.

weekend. It is amazing that you can meet someone at 12 and still be with

:13:45.:13:50.

them, in terms of your marriage and everything is going as well as

:13:51.:13:54.

perhaps it can, right to the very end. It's not just about being

:13:55.:14:00.

together that long. Think about how much her life change. A 16-year-old

:14:01.:14:05.

girl from the valleys. That's what I find most interesting. His life

:14:06.:14:12.

change because he is a performer. He hung out with Alvis in the 60s, but

:14:13.:14:17.

for the wife, it has been interesting and unusual. I suspect

:14:18.:14:24.

when they met and married, they did not think their lifestyle would

:14:25.:14:31.

change significantly. People like Richard Burton and people who have

:14:32.:14:35.

married a young sweethearts, that is the first chapter. Then you hear

:14:36.:14:40.

about the chapters later on and they are so often in these great showbiz

:14:41.:14:45.

stories the history of the wife left behind, but yet there she was. She

:14:46.:14:53.

did not like to fly. Off he went on was this great international showbiz

:14:54.:14:58.

personality was at home all that time. It has been great having you

:14:59.:15:06.

on. Many thanks. That is it for The Papers. A bit of run-through of some
