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

:00:00.:00:17.

With me are Josie Cox from the Wall Street Journal and Pippa Crerar,

:00:18.:00:23.

Political Correspondent from The Evening Standard.

:00:24.:00:26.

Let's have a look at some of those front pages.

:00:27.:00:30.

The Guardian, which leads with those IMF warnings

:00:31.:00:32.

The EU referendum leads the Telegraph too.

:00:33.:00:40.

It reports a ?5 million push to leave, by a new group set up

:00:41.:00:43.

as a response to the government's pro-EU leaflets.

:00:44.:00:47.

to the stars' is the top story for The Times.

:00:48.:00:53.

It says tiny spaceships will be 'blasted' to distant stars by laser

:00:54.:00:56.

The Daily Mail has the migrant crisis on its front page.

:00:57.:00:59.

It reports that criminals are offering migrants passage

:01:00.:01:01.

to increase corporate tax transparency is the lead

:01:02.:01:06.

for the Metro, it says it's intended to shame big companies out of moving

:01:07.:01:10.

reports speculation about the end of the slump in oil prices,

:01:11.:01:14.

which have risen to their highest level this year.

:01:15.:01:16.

says Prince William ignored protocol to talk to India's Prime Minister

:01:17.:01:20.

that the financial crisis has caused delays to retirement for millions.

:01:21.:01:32.

Josie, let's start with The Guardian, the IMF raises stakes with

:01:33.:01:38.

warning a Brexit would hit global growth. The league campaign saying

:01:39.:01:45.

hang on, this is Project here again. -- the league campaign. They are in

:01:46.:01:52.

cahoots with the EU, and it is linked by the umbilical cord of

:01:53.:01:55.

Christine Lagarde, the former interior finance minister for

:01:56.:02:00.

France, and therefore this should be ignored -- Leave Campaign. Yes, we

:02:01.:02:06.

have to remember that it is not a huge surprise the IMF has said this,

:02:07.:02:10.

we knew that the report was coming out about the state of the economy

:02:11.:02:14.

and we have known her stance for a long time. The section where the IMF

:02:15.:02:22.

spoke about exit was pretty small. It could just be seen as a case of

:02:23.:02:25.

people paying attention to what they want to. In the grand scheme of

:02:26.:02:30.

things, the economic outlook that the IMF has issued for global and

:02:31.:02:36.

for Britain, they've cut it for the fourth time this year. In the grand

:02:37.:02:43.

scheme of things, it is looking relatively robust compared to a lot

:02:44.:02:46.

of economies. Of course, the government have seized on it and

:02:47.:02:52.

said look, this is proof the IMF, a respected organisation, have said it

:02:53.:02:56.

would be a catastrophe if there is a Brexit. But they forecast for the

:02:57.:02:59.

British economy and what would happen to this country, they got it

:03:00.:03:05.

wrong in the past? It does not stop George Osborne et al leaping on the

:03:06.:03:10.

reports, and talking about the mere risk of the fact that the UK economy

:03:11.:03:18.

had been tipped off and the impact on jobs would be worse of the Brexit

:03:19.:03:22.

happen. George Osborne and Christine Lagarde are old pals, he was one of

:03:23.:03:27.

the first finance ministers, Noble finance ministers to nominate her

:03:28.:03:32.

for her role in the IMF in 2011, -- global. He did the same earlier this

:03:33.:03:37.

year. The Brexit campaigners are saying that it is Christine Lagarde

:03:38.:03:41.

getting her organisation in line and doing the British governor and a

:03:42.:03:44.

favour by coming out and injecting a degree of warning in their report

:03:45.:03:51.

this time around. Brexit campaigners pointed out that Cameron himself

:03:52.:03:54.

insisted the referendum itself would not unsettle the UK economy. They

:03:55.:04:00.

are trying to discredit this is Christine Lagarde doing her mates a

:04:01.:04:02.

favour. The Financial Times," traders call

:04:03.:04:08.

into slump as oil price hits its highest level of the year".

:04:09.:04:13.

Interesting, the suggestion that this is why there has been a global

:04:14.:04:18.

downturn in oil prices? Yes, we are back at a level that we've not seen

:04:19.:04:22.

for some weeks or months. It would be quite easy to say that this is

:04:23.:04:29.

the era of sub $40 per barrel of oil, that is over. We have to

:04:30.:04:34.

remember the fundamentals of white oil fell so low over a short period

:04:35.:04:39.

of time, that is in place. Oil markets are in supply, there is a

:04:40.:04:43.

glut. The share industry is doing well. There are many different

:04:44.:04:51.

factors in place. The Doha meeting of the weekend could be a good

:04:52.:04:56.

start, and could be a good thing to get Opec members like Saudi Arabia

:04:57.:05:00.

and Venezuela around the table and talking about a concerted effort to

:05:01.:05:04.

cut production. At the end of the day, we've seen this before and have

:05:05.:05:07.

heard this rhetoric before. Whether it will lead to $50 per barrel of

:05:08.:05:15.

oil again is yet to be seen. Why would it be good for all of us of

:05:16.:05:20.

the prices are going up? Is it good for all of us could mark if oil

:05:21.:05:22.

prices are lower committee would think it would be better? The key

:05:23.:05:28.

economies that are going to benefit are the Opec members. Countries like

:05:29.:05:32.

Nigeria have been devastated by this slump in the price of oil, and

:05:33.:05:36.

Venezuela. For them it will be a good thing. And big corporations,

:05:37.:05:43.

like BP and Shell, they have had a tough few quarters, for then this

:05:44.:05:47.

will come as a relief. We have seen the effect on the Scottish oil

:05:48.:05:53.

industry. Jobs and big problems? In terms of Scottish politics and

:05:54.:05:56.

domestic invocations, this will give hope. Maybe not much more than hope

:05:57.:06:02.

at the moment but will give hope to support Scottish independence. The

:06:03.:06:05.

oil revenue they could raise from the North Sea was a key fundamental

:06:06.:06:09.

when it came to the economic case for independence. It has been

:06:10.:06:12.

devastated in recent times because of a collapse in the oil price.

:06:13.:06:17.

Staying with The Financial Times, consumers warned of weeks either

:06:18.:06:22.

defences on leading retail websites? This is worrying stuff, it is

:06:23.:06:26.

reminiscent of the Tour Talk data leak of a few months ago. -- Talk

:06:27.:06:37.

Talk. Hackers broke into the websites of and that resulted in the

:06:38.:06:42.

loss of customer data. What they are mentioning are household names like

:06:43.:06:47.

Waitrose, top shop, Debenhams... I do my fortnightly shop from Tesco. I

:06:48.:06:57.

happily tap in my home address and details, goodness knows what else

:06:58.:07:01.

they know about me from my shopping habits -- bank details will stop

:07:02.:07:07.

cyber security experts have warned that British consumers should

:07:08.:07:09.

reconsider interacting with some of these affected websites. Matt Elan

:07:10.:07:16.

denies that they have poor cyber security in place -- Matalan. They

:07:17.:07:21.

say they invest heavily in making sure their customers data is safe.

:07:22.:07:32.

Be of e-mails coming from these businesses, they could be from

:07:33.:07:36.

hackers. And other technical flaws, private information like bank

:07:37.:07:40.

details could be hacked into and used. These are websites millions of

:07:41.:07:47.

people use? Yes, and regularly. If you go on the Tesco website every

:07:48.:07:51.

weekend, you are not going to look every single time at whether it

:07:52.:07:54.

looks like it did last week. You might not pay attention to that kind

:07:55.:08:01.

of detail. On top of it, a lot of the retailers are having quite a

:08:02.:08:05.

tough time more generally in terms of competition in the market, price

:08:06.:08:09.

cuts, and prize was going on. Any kind of reputational damage that

:08:10.:08:12.

this could incur could be really make or break for them. It could be

:08:13.:08:17.

difficult for them. As you were saying, pepper, Matt Elan made it

:08:18.:08:22.

clear that in their case, they have strict measures to deal with this

:08:23.:08:26.

kind of thing -- Matalan. In the Daily Mail, migrants

:08:27.:08:30.

apparently smuggled to the UK for just ?100? At first glance, it looks

:08:31.:08:34.

like a classic Daily Mail immigration story. The scandal,

:08:35.:08:41.

people could arrive on our shores for only ?100, how easy it must be

:08:42.:08:45.

to get here. Looking more deeply, the report is an update given by the

:08:46.:08:49.

National crime agency. Every camera last year set up a group of about 90

:08:50.:08:56.

officers -- David Cameron. A new task force to look at the migrant

:08:57.:09:00.

crisis. This is the first report back. While there were some

:09:01.:09:06.

eye-catching figures like, you can get to the UK for just ?100, stuck

:09:07.:09:10.

into the back of a lorry from Calais. ?13,500, you can fly from

:09:11.:09:17.

Iraq with high-quality false papers. Or take a speedboat from Dunkirk for

:09:18.:09:25.

?12,000. The fundamentals of this are quite worrying. Because, what

:09:26.:09:30.

the report and update talks about is how the Aegean route, many refugees

:09:31.:09:34.

and migrants are taking it to come to Europe, from Greece and Turkey,

:09:35.:09:40.

because of that crackdown, people are going back to the previous most

:09:41.:09:46.

popular route, Libya to Italy. -- to Greece and Turkey to stop Austria

:09:47.:09:49.

have said they will build a wall on the border between the places

:09:50.:09:56.

migrants intend to cross. We know that Islamic State, they control a

:09:57.:10:07.

Libyan port, they have vowed to send fighters across the Mediterranean

:10:08.:10:11.

disguised as migrants. There is a terror concern that will only make

:10:12.:10:15.

the plight of genuine refugees and migrants worse. We have all been

:10:16.:10:20.

shocked by these pictures of poor souls coming across on these

:10:21.:10:23.

dilapidated craft, many of them drowning. These figures, 100s and

:10:24.:10:30.

thousands migrants travelled from Libya to Italy in 2014. It was the

:10:31.:10:42.

most popular route. It was 885,000 the following.

:10:43.:10:44.

Inevitably, those travelling this summer will lose their lives.

:10:45.:10:51.

Wales, save our steel. Prince ignores protocol to tackle

:10:52.:10:54.

the Indian Premier Mr over petition jobs axis? -- Indian Prime Minister.

:10:55.:11:02.

It is one of those issues that affect our lives. It is a political

:11:03.:11:09.

and economical subject. It is a people subject, about livelihoods.

:11:10.:11:14.

I'm not that surprised to see this out while he is over there. And that

:11:15.:11:19.

he said something. As we've seen in the past, he has to be careful with

:11:20.:11:23.

these things. That he does not overstep the mark and say anything

:11:24.:11:29.

that is not in line with the official line that Buckingham Palace

:11:30.:11:35.

is taking. People get angry about him allegedly breaking protocol, to

:11:36.:11:40.

say, you know what, help us save British Steel? Will people complain?

:11:41.:11:46.

It is such a political topic it is a hot potato in the sense of taking

:11:47.:11:52.

sides. It will be interesting to see what the responses to this. The

:11:53.:11:57.

Royals are absolutely loved in certain parts of India. On trips

:11:58.:12:03.

that I've been on, with various seedier politicians in

:12:04.:12:08.

-- senior politicians in India, there are always questions about

:12:09.:12:14.

what the Queen said that Buckingham Palace for her tea, and what he

:12:15.:12:18.

called these are called! Kate Roxette

:12:19.:12:30.

-- Corgis. This is a headline. She charmed the kids in Delhi. They are

:12:31.:12:36.

drumming trade Up? We had a bit of an issue with

:12:37.:12:47.

the ?50 dress, it is from temporally. As you know, because you

:12:48.:12:52.

are over say with your designers, you are regularly looking the racks

:12:53.:13:01.

at Selfridge's, unless she has got it in a sale or off the back of a

:13:02.:13:04.

lorry... It is more like ?500! We will knock

:13:05.:13:11.

a few more quid off for you! There is the uncomfortable, nation of Kate

:13:12.:13:22.

and her sparkling jewels and the street kids in New Delhi --

:13:23.:13:27.

uncomfortable contrast. They live lives of pure deprivation.

:13:28.:13:32.

We have two ended there. Thank you both of you for coming in.

:13:33.:13:38.

Don't forget, all of the front pages are online on the website. You can

:13:39.:13:42.

read a detailed review of the newspapers.

:13:43.:13:42.

It is their seven days a week. As I say, many thanks to our guests.

:13:43.:13:57.

That's all, goodbye.
