pursuit quartet in Rio. Congratulations to hurt them. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Now on BBC News here's Gavin Esler with The Papers | :00:00. | :00:19. | |
Hello and welcome to our look at The Papers. Let's have a look at the | :00:20. | :00:29. | |
front pages. The Observer leads and the claim by the British bankers | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
Association that some of the UK's biggest banks are preparing to be | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
located outside the UK next year overpacked -- Praxiteles. | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
The Times also mentions Calais and refugee arrivals, | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
but their main story is an account from reporter Louise Callaghan | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
of the Iraqi mission to liberate the city of Mosul | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
The situation in Calais also dominates the Telegraph's front | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
page, but the paper focuses on claims that the Home Office | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
ignored warnings about the issues - such as age checks - | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
And the Express claims to have an exclusive on its front | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
page, a row between Prince Charles and Prince Andrew over the official | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
roles of Andrew's daughters Beatrice and Eugenie. | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
Leading banks set to pull out of the UK early next year overpacked said. | :01:10. | :01:18. | |
City chiefs are poised to hit the relocated button. Is this Project we | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
are again or somehow project fact when it happens? It is probably a | :01:23. | :01:30. | |
bit of both. He is saying, rather graphically, that some banks are | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
offering their fingers over the relocated button and are thinking of | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
going. They would say that. They are lobbying for their own interests. We | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
have heard this before from the banks. There have been reports of | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
the 70,000 jobs could go. There is a fundamental truth which is that the | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
banks like being in London. While there is talk of them being lured to | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
Paris or Frankfurt, bankers enjoy living in London. His lobbyist for | :01:58. | :02:10. | |
banks lobbying for bikers. Bikers also like Monday -- like money and | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
if they thought they had a better chance in France, the France -- the | :02:15. | :02:22. | |
French were trying to lure them to Paris with little adverts. I think | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
they will go where they think they make the biggest profits and they | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
can afford to let up on these leases in London which are overpriced | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
anyway. Restaurants are better in Britain than in France, anyway. | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
Paris isn't as interesting in as many ways. It is thanks to the | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
bankers that we have such fantastic food in London and all these things | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
because they have pumped money through London for 20 years. They | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
ordered the most sympathetic lobby group after 2008. They have become | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
literally pantomime villains. With some justification. The problem is | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
as an economy we are over relied on the financial sector, so this is | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
part of the intense lobbying campaign with the government. It is | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
special pleading if you like, but it is pleading the government cannot | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
ignore because they are important to the economy. The Observer also have | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
this. 50 refugee girls arrive after U-turns by officials. They also have | :03:26. | :03:32. | |
Kerry Mulligan clutching a toy bear. What do you make of this story and | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
the way in which some people who are celebrities, Lily Allen as well, | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
have come out and talked about this? I am not sure what the use of | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
celebrities does except to make people more cross. As a woman, it is | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
lovely to see girl children being brought in because one of the | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
biggest problems for all people deal with the refugee crisis is that all | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
we see is young men. To most of this, even when we see our | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
home-grown young men standing on the corners in groups all we see is a | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
trouble. The idea we will bring in even more young men who stand on | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
street corners and get cross with each other is pretty terrifying to | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
people. It is very important to be reminded that there are girls there | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
and young women there because we see them possibly as an integrated | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
future. They tended to be invisible in much of the coverage. When the | :04:31. | :04:39. | |
young men came in, there were a lot of photographs. I am not sure why | :04:40. | :04:43. | |
that is. Are we protecting them from traffickers or whatever. We seem to | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
treat women differently and we are not sing enough girls and women. The | :04:51. | :05:01. | |
Observer coverage is about the young girls and the pictures that have | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
been around, they are very young. The journey between 13 and 17. There | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
is a problem of perception because the first draft of people coming in | :05:09. | :05:19. | |
looked of dubious age. There were warnings from border officials that | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
many migrants were posing as children to get into the country | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
when they were substantially older. There is good coverage around the | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
fact that the latest group of refugees are girls. It is | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
unfortunate that are in the second set of arrivals, rather than the | :05:35. | :05:48. | |
first. Even the Brexit problems are that you are only seeing male | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
refugees coming in. Again, it is that sense, to me, of an importation | :05:54. | :06:04. | |
of aggression. Good for Kerry Mulligan for speaking up. It | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
wouldn't have got the coverage if it wasn't for this sort of celebrity | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
endorsement. It is what it is. It is done for a reason, quite rightly. It | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
expands the coverage and that is a good thing. There is a different | :06:18. | :06:26. | |
take from the Telegraph. Warnings as child migrants try to cross the | :06:27. | :06:32. | |
Channel. It is the typical photo of young men with their faces covered, | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
which makes us feel anxious because those images we associate with | :06:37. | :06:46. | |
violent activities. If you juxtapose that with the Observer story, it is | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
two different sides of the same story. It depends where you sit and | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
look at it. The Telegraph have a lot of the warnings. There is a | :07:00. | :07:03. | |
suggestion Chief inspectors of workers have warned that people were | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
posing as migrants and children as much as three years ago. Suggestions | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
that council officials offered to help with age verification have been | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
shunned by various authorities. The Telegraph agenda is to pull together | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
all the fears and preconceptions about the fact people are trying to | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
pose as children to get in and reaffirming it. The picture is the | :07:26. | :07:29. | |
key part of that. There is not too much mentioned about the group of | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
young girls the kingpin. It is the focus on the bogus element. One of | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
my favourite cartoonists is on the front page. It says children on | :07:41. | :07:47. | |
board apparently. On the front page of the Telegraph we also have a | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
story which will please a lot of people. Nuisance phone call bosses | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
to face Avei million pounds in fines. You get these nuisance phone | :07:55. | :08:02. | |
calls and that they could face fines. They come often via internet | :08:03. | :08:12. | |
phones so that is no redress because in the old days you could keep them | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
hanging on until they were paying huge phone bills if nothing else for | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
the price of knowing you. Now they bring fire escape or similar and | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
just stay on for ever. I think the problem with this isn't that most of | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
these companies close. They go into liquidation as soon as they are | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
fined. Somebody phoned up and it was a person who said how are you today? | :08:39. | :08:45. | |
I thought this is completely anonymous. They are just trying to | :08:46. | :08:54. | |
come up with an introduction other than I heard you have been involved | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
in an accident. The key thing is pinning it on the directors. They | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
liquidate the company is immediately so what the government is saying, | :09:01. | :09:05. | |
good work has been done on this by consumer groups who have led the way | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
on this in terms of saying that crackdown on these people. Let's see | :09:10. | :09:12. | |
if it works. It is all good work has been done on this by consumer groups | :09:13. | :09:15. | |
who have led the way on this in terms of saying that crackdown on | :09:16. | :09:18. | |
these people. Let's see if it works. The result was in theory, but I | :09:19. | :09:20. | |
don't think it. These calls, unfortunately. You can of course | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
ring the telephone service and get your phone number ticking off these | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
lists. I do it regularly for me and my mum. Top consumer tips. The | :09:29. | :09:40. | |
Sunday Times. I was entrapped by Isis Dons. This is about Mosul and | :09:41. | :09:47. | |
other parts of that conflict. It points out the risks people, war | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
correspondents, have to take to do their job. It is an extremely | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
dangerous job and I think it will get more dangerous for these | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
embedded correspondents were those on the outskirts of Mosul as they | :09:59. | :10:03. | |
get closer to the city and the fighting is likely to get harder and | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
more difficult and dangerous. There is already a suggestion that as many | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
as 250 men and boys used as human shields have been killed in Mosul. | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
It is going to get worse before gets better and the idea that Islamic | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
State or so embedded with the population just that everybody at | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
greater risk, both soldiers and civilians. They have been there for | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
more than two years. Children are not quite to school for two years | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
because they have been indoctrinated. It is terribly sad. | :10:34. | :10:42. | |
On a point of process, I am not sure I like personal stories on front | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
pages. I want the personal stories inside, even on a Sunday newspaper | :10:49. | :10:57. | |
and a more conventional story on the front page. I don't want something | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
that starts with the reporter on the front page. It doesn't diminish her | :11:03. | :11:12. | |
bravery in doing the job. She doesn't have to be there in the | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
sense she is doing her job and is reasonably well-paid by the Sunday | :11:16. | :11:23. | |
Times for doing it and that is very different for the people who are | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
trapped in their everyday. One of the reason I like Sunday newspaper | :11:28. | :11:31. | |
is that they have done something like what the Observer has done. | :11:32. | :11:39. | |
Three pages on Trump and Clinton. It has great graphics. This is rather | :11:40. | :11:43. | |
good. What they do is they say what would happen if you took out a black | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
voters or female voters or college educated voters or Hispanic voters? | :11:49. | :11:54. | |
How would it change the result? It shows, America is not unique in | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
this, how divided America is between these various groups. It also draws | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
a parallel with the UK with the Brexit foot. It looks at different | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
states, different areas. It looks at how white menfolk, generally Trump. | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
Of the black and Hispanic population thought, were women. It basically | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
says that Clinton is ahead by 48-2, the margin of error is still pretty | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
good, she is less unpopular than Trump, which seems to be key to this | :12:26. | :12:33. | |
election. It is 48-42, but a margin of error of 4%. The other big | :12:34. | :12:40. | |
question which is raised here is you don't count people who don't | :12:41. | :12:46. | |
normally vote. If they come out in big numbers it will change | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
everything. Trump only came top in the graphic that showed no black | :12:53. | :12:58. | |
voters. In every other combination, Clinton is ahead. That is quite | :12:59. | :13:07. | |
interesting. Our final story of the day is Ed balls. Out on a limb. This | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
is from the mail on Sunday. Why you should never ask Ed for a lift. What | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
is this about? He looks like a butcher. The EP member when a | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
butcher would wear a waistcoat and a hat? They were dancing. The looked | :13:26. | :13:36. | |
like Mr Morris, the old butcher in Morris when I was growing up, | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
sweeping some of the street and throwing around. He did really well | :13:41. | :13:48. | |
until that particular left and he just didn't pull off that list and | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
that is what cost. He is very stiff. He looked like a hammer, not like a | :13:55. | :14:01. | |
woman. He is the first to admit he is the worst dancer on the show but | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
everyone loves a try. Some of these people have been in West End | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
musicals. They are pretty good at it. It would be interesting to see | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
if he survives because he comes bottom of the leaderboard but does | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
better on the public vote. You can't help but admire him. He is like John | :14:19. | :14:27. | |
Sergeant but not so charming. There is a rigidity in him which is | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
difficult. You didn't notice it, I always thought he would be the sort | :14:34. | :14:37. | |
of man who would be good in a fight. When you see him it is like he is | :14:38. | :14:45. | |
frozen. I admire anyone who goes on it. In terms of his progress, he is | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
a pretty good. A lot of were pretty good at the start. Those of us who | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
are challenged by two left feet just admire the guts of taking part, | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
never mind how he did. That is it for The Papers. A reminder, we look | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
at the front pages every evening at a quarter to 11 on BBC News. | :15:08. | :15:22. | |
A cold start to the day, feeling like an autumnal morning out there. | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
Some mist and | :15:28. | :15:28. |
