30/05/2016 The Papers

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

With me are Dan Bilefsky, from the New York Times,

and Ben Riley Smith, political correspondent

The Metro leads on the news that David Cameron has found a pro-EU

ally in the New Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan.

The pair put on a united front today as they campaigned for Britain

to remain in the EU, despite the Prime Minister's

criticism of Mr Khan during the mayoral campaign.

The International New York Times reports on the sentencing

of Issene Habre, the former president of Chad, was sentenced

to life in prison on Monday after he was found guilty of crimes

against humanity, torture and sex crimes.

The Daily Telegraph says that public concern about immigration has given

the league campaign a boost. The Guardian front pages about the

referendum and it acts with Eric David Cameron kinky Britain in the

European Union. The Daily Mail says that ministers had been have been

ignoring a string of warnings that Britain's small ports are an easy

target for people smuggling. The Times says that the government

dismissed concerns about people being smuggled in small boats. The

Daily Mirror reports on a new cure for skin cancer.

Can we do it? Yes we Khan. David Cameron has had a difficult week. He

has been on the stage with Sadiq Khan, who he criticised only weeks

ago for saying he was shoulder to shoulder with Muslim extremists.

Then he is on a platform with him. He has been criticised for that by

those who do not agree with them. It was only last month that he said at

the dispatch box that Sadiq Khan's integrity should be questioned. He

was making the point that people should not vote for him as mayor.

But London date. But now he is calling Sadiq Khan a proud Muslim

and saying they are joining together to back able to remain in the EU.

Labour has a difficulty turning out its voters. By appearing with these

figures he is trying to get Labour faces in the frame showing that

Labour wants is to stay in. There are some Conservatives the David

Cameron cannot share the platform with just now. He is also appealing

to minority voters. Your paper is leading with the appalling on the

subject of the referendum which is suggesting that there has been a

shift to do with migration. We have been doing polls every fortnight

tracking remain against Lee. Since David Cameron came back with the

renegotiation deal in February we have seen a decline in support for

leaving the EU every fortnight. But this time there is a four point

boost for those who want to leave, which is said to be because of

immigration. Last week we have seen immigration statistics on the front

pages. We have seen concerns about migrants crossing the English

Channel and there is no doubt that the out campaign believe they can

win on immigration. People who are afraid of immigration are more

likely to leave the EU. There were always fears that having a

referendum would be problematic in June. We have seen many capsized

boats in Italy and horrible images of migrants in the sea. The timing

could turn out to be quite difficult. Last summer when Calais

was always on the front pages more people appeared to be leaning out

the name. Believe campaign say that while we stay inside the European

Union we cannot control the numbers because of the freedom of movement.

On the front of the Financial Times, Brussels once like touch rules,

which is interesting in the context of control and regulation. This is

an example where Brussels is fighting from liberalisation and

suggesting that companies should not be overregulated by national

governments. They think it will increase competition in the European

Union. It is a good news Brussels story. You can see how the other

side response, saying that they do not want a light touch or a heavy

touch. They see any touching from Brussels as a problem. Brussels and

the Netherlands and Germany and France have been trying to reel in

companies like And birth. Now Brussels are coming in and saying

lay-off and have less regulation. This is also the time when

Washington is looking at overregulation by Brussels. Champion

national champions from Europe. Do think it is deliberate? Maybe that

is cynical. It seems like a counter voice. Hedge fund is. They are set

to me money on the campaign. We are not allowed to publish exit polls

before the 10pm point when people can stop voting, but there is

nothing to stop people doing exit polls and using that information.

Hedge fund is an investment banks are considering having a private

exit poll done so they can place bets on the financial markets. They

would argue that they might make more if they know in advance what

the result is going to be because what they're doing that there are

financial tools. It is hedging. It is a drop in the ocean. With the

amount of money that is moving through... Exit polls are quite

reliable but in the last election the polls leading up to it were not.

The exit polls were bang on and they are more trustworthy. In The Times

there is a story that has a link to the EU debate. Ministers have

ignored the risk of people trafficking. This was an old the

papers today. On Sunday nights there was a dinghy of 18 Albanians that

was saved from capsizing just of the border of Kent. There are reports

from independent border inspectors and a few months ago the government

was saying the risk of people being smuggled in by small boats is not

assessed as being significant. They are saying why were the warnings not

picked up when we are now seen some of these vessels. We don't know how

many there are. How do you place it? The scenes over the top. If you look

at what is happening in Italy boats after boat is capsizing. In the

British context and have only been one to and the borders are very well

pleased. This reaction that suddenly the country is under siege by

Albanians is not borne out by what is happening. It is unfortunate that

this one vote capsized but it taps into the fear that people have about

migration. , but there have not been very many at this point. In the

International New York Times you talk about Donald Trump and how

close he is with regards to Hillary Clinton. But the polls and not tell

the story of the difficulty he would face because of the way that the

states divide up. Donald Trump has played into the despair of the

working class in America and he's doing well on television and on

Twitter. What we're finding is that the Democrats have always one at

least 18 states since 1992 which adds up to a large number of

electoral votes. Swing states are going to be crucial in this election

and they will be difficult for Donald Trump to win. Places like

Arizona there is the big Hispanic vote. With all of his race baiting

and comments about Mexicans and that muslins cannot come into the country

has created a backlash and there is a feeling that perhaps he will have

a struggle in swing states because of this backlash. However, it is

quite early and polls have been wrong before. It is too early to

predict, but he is going to face an uphill battle. But Hillary Clinton

is a problematic candidate. The e-mail scandal and Donald Trump is

going very hard on her. He has been ramming her over the head. They both

divide opinion. What I find fascinating about this guy, you

would presume he is right candidate, he wants to build a giant wall

between Mexico and America. But he is also hard left. He is against

trade deals. He is very protectionist. Here's a hard

candidate for Hillary Clinton to pin down. He is hammering her as the

establishment. He could be a tricky candidate. There is a debate about

what he is like because they can be quite left-wing although his notions

on trade are of the wall. But Hillary is treating him as a serious

candidate and not fighting back she is legitimising his narrative and

what she has been handled for is that she is not fighting back on. He

also knows how to communicate. Aim it at a four is what politicians are

told. His message seems oversimplistic. But that hammers

home. And you remember it. We will end with cricket. Several

photographs of Alastair Cook. We have chosen this picture because he

has broken the record for 10,000 runs and he is the youngest get

there. The quickest person to score 10,000 test runs. He did at 31 years

old. Five months younger than the next youngest player. We were

hearing praise from other great editors. That included his old

batting partner. He will be remembered as one of the greats of

English cricket. He is up there. A point of caution. Remember when

Tiger Woods was zooming away. But that stalled. Whether he can go on

to replicate that remains to be seen but it is an amazing achievement. Do

you like cricket? Is there a hockey stick involved. It is an achievement

it is a good achievement. Not that long ago he was getting panned as

captain and people said his form was not great. That is in the past.

Thank you very much. Thank you, Dan Bilefsky,
