11/10/2016 The Papers

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

With me are the broadcaster and writer, Natalie Haynes,

and Rob Merrick, Deputy Political Editor of The Independent.

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

Donald Trump's Twitter tirade tops the front page

of the Financial Times - he targeted Paul Ryan

and other senior Republicans for not supporting him.

The Telegraph leads with a warning from the treasury watchdog over

planned reforms to pensions introduced by ex-chancellor,

George Osbourne which could end up costing the treasury

The Daily Express says that it's time to Silence EU Exit Whingers -

pushing for a hard Brexit deal with Brussels.

The Guardian leads with the debate in Westminster today over Syria

where Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson warned Russia that it risks

becoming a 'pariah state' over its role in the conflict.

The Mail says the government is set to go ahead with

The paper called the resignation of the chief executive Ashok. -- a

shock. And the Mirror devotes much

of its front page to what it calls the riddle of singer Will Young's

withdrawal from this year's Lots more background and analysis on

William's... Don't mock me!

Natalie love strictly, and we will be discussing it. The FT, Trump

Tweet Thai raid. Hardly a day seems Tweet Thai raid. Hardly a day seems

to go by when this man doesn't get on there in the middle of the night,

I'm angry! He is doing it again. -- Thai raid.

You sort of felt that his taunting You sort of felt that his taunting

of Hillary and pretty much anybody even mildly to the left of, let's

say, Attila the Hun, that was kind of a given. But now he has started

turning on his own party in theory. Remember those adverts, Republican

in name only? Now this looks like his candidacy is Republican in name

only. Clearly they have split. He never was a Republican, was he?

He used to be a Democrat and would have loved to have run as an

independent. Now he has the opportunity.

Even allowing for all the Republicans who have turned against

because of his outrageous behaviour, lots of Republicans don't like him

because they don't consider him to be Conservative. He has not got that

ideology. He will have evangelical Christians

flocking to his side. Mormons.

We're used to Republicans attacking Democrats. Today there was only one

of the residential candidate attacking, and he was a Republican.

astonishing statement in one of his astonishing statement in one of his

tweets that the shackles have been taken off, we are not exceed a

moderate or restrained Donald Trump. -- not going to see.

But the big picture is that he is in trouble. It appears that Hillary

Clinton has had a bounce from the second debate, it looks less likely,

thank goodness, that this racist, misogynist, rapist, narcissist and

fantasist will be elected president. What you say?

Signet -- succinctly and beautifully done.

million people clearly don't give a million people clearly don't give a

monkeys, or already made up their minds. Voting has already started in

a lot of the swing states. Hillary Clinton may have won this before

November eight. Please let that be true. Polling

experts tell us that people's decisions are made often one year

before the actual election happens, and very rarely do the debates have

any impact whatsoever. I think people probably turned into the

first one for the theatre of it. They turned off from the second one

because it feels like that narratives has run its course. He is

providing his own theatre single-handedly, following his

Twitter stream is enough to keep Twitter stream is enough to keep

most people who are interested in him occupied. I'm not sure there is

much more to be said. Rob, briefly, millions and millions

of people support Donald Trump and believe that he is talking to them

in a way that politicians simply have not. If, as everyone seems to

suggest, and there is a long way to go, one month, he does not win,

there is still a constituency at their will be looking to him for

something. Yes, I'm sure we can expect

allegations the election was rigged. There have been stories about

Russian hacking, so I'm sure we will hear plenty of that.

It is hard to see him marching on the White House. He does not feel

like a revolutionary figure. It is hard to imagine him with pitchforks

and everybody stomping their way towards...

That is that it is the suggestion. Samsung, have you got one of their

phones? No.

tend to use your phone for tend to use your phone for

spontaneous combustion. A brief campfire.

To read the paper online. Anyway, big problem for the company, they

have withdrawn this phone from the market.

Yes, first they tried to manage the problem by suggesting that some

people just send them back without taking this Draconian step of

abandoning the model. More than $19 billion has been wiped off the

company's market value because nobody will buy their phones and the

people who have presumably demand their money back. The problem could

be more serious than Samsung realise. Instead of the battery

being the problem it is actually a problem with the technology and the

process at the heart of the phone. There seems to be no way back for

this model of phone and a long-term crisis for Samsung. They said this

phone was going to be a killer of the iPhone.

Literally. OK, the Guardian, Syria, big debate and emergency debate

today. Natalie, the West and in this particular case the UK, Parliament,

trying to work out how on earth that responds to the carnage, certainly

in Aleppo? Yes, and I'm not entirely sure

they're going to come up with an answer. I am no longer sure that

there is an answer. I am not sure it's the case that they

not found it, and that if they not found it, and that if they

discuss it a bit longer the right answer suddenly appears. I think it

may be the case that there are 2 million different, slightly better,

slightly worse at equally terrible versions of the future, and I'm not

sure that having a discussion about localised zones, which you are not

win to get Russia to commit to, will make much difference.

A lot of hand-wringing, Rob, for a lot of people in Westminster today.

The feeling seems to be that there is no good solution to this, let it

play out. This is a lot of the debate and the

contributions I thought were very impressive. You can tell MPs really

wanted to do something and felt guilty that nothing has been done,

nothing of consequence. Five years!

But that sort of statement only gets But that sort of statement only gets

you so far, and I think in the end Boris Johnson, the Foreign

Secretary, what he said effectively was we're not going to world War

three. That was the question that he posed, you have a no-fly zone, and

means of enforcing it, potentially shooting down Russian planes and

helicopters, they do not want to take that step. It did not really

get us very far. While this debate was going on in the Commons today,

there was a simultaneous debate in the other chamber which was about

whether to bring back the royally at, and this was a really is --

extraordinary and offensive juxtaposition of debate. There were

just as many MPs in the second chamber as there were in the first

one discussing the agony, the humanitarian disaster in Syria, and

that was not good today. Bottom of the Guardian, care home

closures leading to risk. Yes, the numbers are pretty terrible

anyway you look at them. The profit margins at care homes, they are

dropping their funding, the cut has already been cut. They are bringing

in a higher minimum wage that is in a higher minimum wage that is

going to make that even more of a problem. There is no point saying,

exclude them from the minimum wage because that'll be fine. One in ten

jobs are already being excised. There are more old people than there

were, more of us are going to need care as we get older. The answer is

not going to happen around a board until more money comes from

somewhere, I think that's it. The Guardian has a depressing front page

It is all about money, isn't it, and It is all about money, isn't it, and

there just isn't the money. Thankfully we are living longer, but

it is causing a huge problem. There is growing criticism of the

government for spending more money on the NHS with the flashy front

line services rather than the more behind-the-scenes care which is just

as important in care homes. There has got to be a shift away from

that. There are clearly issues with the NHS, but certainly there has got

to be a shift in money to care homes to local authorities, and I would

imagine that this sort of thing must be a priority for the new Prime

Minister in the Autumn Statement. Front page of the Daily Telegraph,

George Osborne's plan for tax relief, the suggestion is that it is

going to backfire. Yes, although when you can pick it,

there doesn't seem to be a new piece of information or new study which

has provoked it as a response. In fact, it is the office of budget and

the witty saying if you take taxes are higher earners and their

contributors they will take their money elsewhere. It doesn't feel

like news, exactly. I could probably have told you that the date was

announced. Nothing new here, Rob.

I take issue with the headline. I think the Telegraph is keen to blame

the forecast that the government will lose money on pension changes.

They are keen to blame that on the pension cap. If you look carefully

at what this analyst is seen, the other part of the story is the

pension freedoms, they will think I don't have to buy an annual tea, I

can buy a Lamborghini. The fact that George Osborne increased the amount

of tax you pay into your eyes makes it seem too simple to say that the

pension cap will result in the government having to pay out more in

time. Perhaps, if you didn't have those other freedoms, the cap will

not have the effect... And they have to do something about the cap,

because the amount that goes into pension tax relief has doubled. The

vast majority of that goes to rich people and that is not sustainable.

Look how big the headline is with Look how big the headline is with

this and look how small the crisis which affects vastly more people is.

The Daily Express. Finally... William Young, honour programme by

the name of Strictly. He was my joint favourite. And Ed

Balls. We like Ed Balls. I thought I was going to hit him but

he was hilarious. Len Goodman said there was no salsa in his salsa.

was shuttling from LA to hear so was shuttling from LA to hear so

perhaps he was a little jet-lagged and grouchy. Will Stood up to him

and it was a bit harrowing. It was like seeing your favourite cousin

fighting your favourite grampa. Not that I am an expert, but is it

that he is leaving soon, Len Goodman, is this his last one?

I am also upset about that, thanks for bringing that up. It is

harrowing! Sometimes it is the only consolation I have. Remember that

awful news a minute ago? This cheers me up. You will want to go to Mars,

Rob, for the next series and not be there. Hell of a link! Man on Mars

in 15 years, President Obama says this. Is this possible?

This sort of statement triggers memories of promises to put a man on

the moon by the end of the decade. I don't know the detail of the story,

but there is a surprising that because Obama was suggesting the

people could come back. I'll is thought that volunteering to go to

Mars was that it was a one-way trip -- I always thought. The paper then

makes the obvious joke that there will not be a shortage of people

leaving with President Trump looming.

Thank you very much. All the front pages online on the BBC website.

Each night's edition of The Papers is posted on there shortly after the

broadcast is finished. Thanks for watching, and by. -- goodbye.

Good evening, another fine day across western
