30/09/2016 The Papers

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

With me are the columnist for the Daily Telegraph,

Tim Stanley and Susie Boniface, who's a columnist -

known as the Fleet Street Fox - for the Mirror.

Could only get into the building if you wore blue. We cannot get the

pictures of the front pages for some reason, I dent understand why so we

are going to have 18 minutes of discussion. And you would be

pleased. Let us start with the Telegraph, Hammond's warning to

business, irresponsible companies face backlash in push to put workers

on board and curb bosses pay. This is Philip Hammond saying that

customers want to know that workers' rights are being respected? Guillem

act yes and if you read some of the detail, he's talking about defending

government plans for workers on boards, he's going to take action on

executive pay, he is going to review workers' rights. All on the eve of

the Conservative conference, this is almost Corbin nonexpert. This is the

kind of thing that will make John McDonnell spit teeth. To know that

somehow or another. -- Corbynomics. We have gone a Labour Party quite a

long way to the left and that has pushed the Tories even further to

the left so I don't know who is right and who is left. Are you

convinced by that? Yes. A lot of unions will be pleased and they are

concerned that Brexit means that they will have to give up the

workers' rights that is bestowing on us by membership of the European

Union? I think this interview tells us a couple of things, first of all

this suggests that Theresa May has taken charge over Philip Hammond.

They have not been elected together, they were thrown together but the

fact that Philip Hammond are saying things that you normally associate

with Theresa May indicate that he is part of a team and he's not going to

go his own way. Secondly tells us that Theresa May wants to be Angela

Merkel, it is highly ironic that our Conservative Prime Minister is

adopting Christian Democrat European style social and economic policies.

What happens in Germany is you have a state managed corporatism whether

stating courage is things like workers sitting on boards. That is

reflective of her approach towards capitalism, she's not a metropolitan

liberal that is into corporations doing what they want, she's not a

libertarian. She is a provincial woman. She has been surrounded by

small business people all her life, she's someone who sees things from

the point of of the shop floor, she has talked about helping the working

classes. We are going to see at the conference this week, a very new and

distinctive personal brand of conservative. And kitten heels. And

what is interesting is that things that Philip Hammond has said, and

immigration protecting skilled workers and making sure that the

economy doesn't suffer too much, this is the kind of thing that will

worry a big chunk of the Conservative Party who you might

want to personify as being more white wing or pro-Brexit, saying

this sounds like we are not going all of the way for Brexit, how this

is all going to work internally if they start having some social

Democratic, economic policy that is not currently existing Conservative

theology I suppose, ideology, how that is going to work internally,

because Liam Fox, John Redwood, Boris Johnson, David Davis, are

going to start having hissy fits about this? Yes. We will come back

to Theresa May and her control in the times in a minute. The Daily

Mail says there are secret taxed eels for football millionaires, they

are about to cut their income tax is, how so? It is very complicated,

when you are paid by a couple paying football comedy get your salary but

there is an issue of what happens to your image rights, like your face

appearing on towels and lunchboxes, which apparently happens. Hitherto,

what has been happening allegedly is that some players have been diverted

the income from the club into the image rights, it means that they can

pay a corporation rate of tax on the money they earn rather than an

income tax level. The Daily Mail says that what has been going on for

two years without us realising is that HMRC allegedly has been saying

to players that you shouldn't really do that but if you are going to do

that then OK but you can only do that with a fifth of your income.

Now they know about it, now suddenly we there about it and that is what

the Daily Mail is reporting. Compare to previous behaviour in the image

rights, there is an accountancy loophole that the HMRC has caught up

with, they have put a limit on how much you can do that, on the one

hand, that appears to be HMRC pulling its fingers out, on the

other hand when the Daily Mail tries to find out what the current deals

are, HMRC have delayed, denied, said no comment, not put stuff out,

refused to answer and so despite months of a newspaper asking what

the dealers, they haven't said. It doesn't matter whether HMRC think it

is popular or not, if this is official policy, with what is

happening with tax funding, it is something that everyone should know.

So if you have a photograph of yourself with a byline, could you do

the same with your newspaper? You can but I don't think you would get

away with it. If you are having a picture used with a company website,

that is the issue as well. One particular group, is getting

favourable treatment. Might image may be used as a dart board. So I

don't know if I should be getting money. The Times, saying she is a

control freak MP? It just sounds like she has taken over a new job.

They are making a lot out of this, is things like Mr Cameron's aides

were hustled out of number ten within minutes of him leaving, will

that is fairly normal. Apparently Samantha Cameron has met with Philip

made, to look at image. And Arab Obama said he was impressed with the

gender balance at her team, it doesn't sound like much of a coup

d'etat for me. It sounds slightly contrived. Samantha Cameron met with

Philip made to talk about a Prime Ministerial spouse, I want to know,

what it meant: make sure you have the right kind of bikini for the

beach. Watch a wallpaper choices, because when foreign state leaders

visit you will have your picture taken. The Daily Mail will be

reporting how much oil lamps cost. I would just be fascinated. I'm sure

that Philip may sat there and went Ono. To defend, it is true and feet

street feels that part of the problem with Theresa May is that she

is so self-possessed and self-controlled, she keeps her own

counsel and she doesn't gossip and leak stuff. We need a wreck as our

Prime Minister. -- we want. Try to piece together a personality

profile, don't forget, the conference is the first big chance

to present herself to Britain and explain what she's going to do.

Trying to piece together some picture of her private life is

Ashley pretty hard to do. No wonder they are going on about her shoes so

much. Character is all they have got. Polish builders have been saved

from Brexit, European construction workers and tradespeople are set for

an exemption. This was a worry, that key workers who were not bankers

were going to find it difficult to come and work in the country? It was

one of those on main things that was going to be discussed at length,

whether we were going to lose the migrants, or whether there was no

point. Unsurprisingly, there will be some kind of a fudge, where you

store have the migrants that you need. But as with everything with

Brexit, you have to see the inside of it to see what the text is, but

this can only be speculation because we do not know. There have been no

deals, no discussion, has anything been published yet, about what is

gay to happen with freedom of movement, maybe a freedom of

movement with some foreign country. A sort of EU style freedom of

movement. Or whether we will have any kind of movement, we don't know

so this whole front page is guesswork. There will be a lot of

occupations that will want to have opportunities like that? Yes it is

not clear exactly what system will suit that, we thought it might be a

points-based system, it has been suggested that is not tough enough.

The interview we have got with Philip Hammond, he insists that

whatever happens, access to high skilled workers will be retained yet

we have also been given word that the system will involve quotas in

some way and actual numbers will be brought down because when Theresa

May was Home Secretary, she said she felt frustrated in her attempts for

immigration so that suggests that there will be an attempt to reduce

numbers, but exactly who and how they will manage that and who

decides how the workers are important. Britain divorce lawyers,

draft Brexit on art, wine and property, our share of the spoils.

This is the most important thing in any split, I made sure that my

husband didn't get the wine. He doesn't know that. He does now. I

was drinking it for years, it was brilliant. What they are talking

about is that although we are going to split, don't laugh, it is true.

There are a lot of EU assets. So although we will have to lose money

on one side, our trade negotiators are going to look at the other side

of the balance sheet in terms of apparently, we owe them a part of a

European art collection. According to the amount that we pay into the

EU we may well have some sort of claiming rights over 5000 bottles of

wine. But only 250 bottles of spirits. 2.25 euros million worth of

art and 10 million euros worth of book value at European Court of

Justice building, and they will also talk about pension deals because

there are British citizens who are employees of the EU through us in

Brussels who have pension rights, who have jobs in the have to decide

what they are going to do in terms of keeping it on. Whether we will

pay their pensions for 50 years down the road, it is like any divorce, it

is the pensions and the assets that cause the real row. I say keep it

simple, just that half of the wealth down the middle and we will take one

half and they will take the other. One of the things that stands out,

is a building. It is 32 Smith Square, the former home of

Conservative Central office, is currently run by the EU on behalf of

the European Parliament and in that building Nigel Farage currently has

an office. Says he's rented an office in the EU which we are going

to take back anyway. What a confusing mess. We are going back to

the mail. I am putting it to one side because I was hoping we did not

have to talk about this. The Daily Mail. Charlatan George, charlatan

pull-out. -- Charlotte and George. Do you have a problem with this? Why

would I? This is great, this is about projecting Britain around the

world, this is about building bridges and alliances and

reaffirming historical ties. That is what the Royal family exists to do,

they are human beings but they are also effectively bankrolled by us,

they are the face of us and what they can do to spread joy around the

world and increase its image and earning power, I say God bless you

man. Your 32nd start now. You are entirely right, this Canadian trip

is not just a nice holiday, this has been arranged purely because we are

currently involved in Canadian Brexit negotiations. Canada has

recently talked about and EU trade deal for itself and it wants us to

join a trade deal, we would be quite keen on joining it, so that we can

Brexit sooner. Part of the reason therefore, you have a royal visit,

it was when William and Kate turn up, there is lots of fantastic

beneficial effects from that and you have more tourism. You can bring a

whole swathe of government officials along with you and lots of media

coverage and tourist spots. What is wrong with that? The fact is that is

what the raw family is poor. But I don't think that is what a

16-month-old child should be doing. They are sweet young children but

they had been born into a family that does this for a living whether

they like it or not and I tend to think that the children should be

going on a trade deal mission which is what this is and many of them are

coming up in the next year or 18 months around the world. They should

be doing that when they are 15 and 18 not when they are 16 months and

three years old. They can take them with and not have a photograph, that

is what happens, Kate and wheels are very good at making sure, the fact

that they are being pushed out like this is purely to put money in

businessmen 's pockets, it is not to make us happy. I think that there

should be a creche that they are put into. I might ask them to give you

some parenting advice. The Guardian says that Syrian regime blocks 80%

of the supply. Just six convoys reaches it. How much of an exclusive

this is I don't know, but the scale of the obstruction is what leaks

out? Absolutely, the ceasefire has broken down effectively, the great

powers have not managed to bring peace and stability, the reason for

that is because the side they are backing have contrary aims, which

this appalling story is a reflection what matters to President Assad is

not ending the civil war, bringing peace and stability, what matters is

securing control of the hit, and even if it means securing aid, he

will do it. What can the international community do about it?

It is almost impossible, there is no guy in a white hats that you can

back to be the eventual victor. There is no promise of democracy,

there is just horrible people. So it will be messed the matter what you

are going to do and I think it is too late to do anything about it. It

is going to be what it is going to be, it is a vacuum.

Mighty change with a change of American president? No, one

candidate supports the policy status quo had argued he was responsible

for the status quo in Hillary Clinton and the other candidates

point of view in Syria are very hard to concern. They are crazy. They

imply that he's not ready to do the job. Finally, the Stealth bedroom

tax, the poorest pensioners to lose hundreds of pounds a year. But I

thought, that there was supposed to be some kind of exemption or extra

help? There is supposed to be a system by which you can claim by

your local authority some emergency support, but that was a finite fund

that was set up under the coalition government. That money will have

long since run out so it may well be that you will be further hit by a

bedroom tax and there is going to be problems for you. However I did see

something saying that the bedroom tax was not going to be committed

quite as harshly so who knows? And of course its official name is the

spare room subsidy and you could argue that with the housing crisis,

can we afford to have people living in homes bigger than they need?

Equally the scale of housing problem is such that the number of families

affected by it is so comparatively small that the idea of driving one

person out of their home in order to free it up for seven people is

arguably fantasy. I have no reason to say this, but I get the

impression, that what is happening in number ten, everything is on the

table. It might be another area of welfare reform they are trying to

roll back and this is the kind of headline, I have an instinct that it

is the kind of thing that reason they doesn't want associated with

her government. Just as cold. As it is here. That is it for tonight,

don't forget, you can read a detailed review, on the papers page

of our Internet. And each night addition is posted shortly after it

is finished, and also thank you to Tim Stanley and Susan Boniface.

Coming up next is: the
