Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be | :01:07. | :01:19. | |
With me are the Broadcaster Natalie Haynes - and the Independent's | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
Deputy Political Editor, Rob Merrick. | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
Natalie with her weather seemed jumper. Rob, where is yours? Let's | :01:31. | :01:45. | |
look at,'s from pages. The Daily Telegraph leads | :01:46. | :01:47. | |
with Prime Minister Theresa May's tax pledge to win back business, | :01:48. | :01:49. | |
and she'll offer a better New Push for 'clean break' EU exit | :01:50. | :01:52. | |

Brussels. Blair is back in politics | :01:59. | :02:00. | |

'fill a hole' in British politics. And a third of young homeless people | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
are turned away by councils Let's have a look ahead to the | :02:08. | :02:19. | |
Autumn Statement on Wednesday. The i has the headline Osborne austerity | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
continues in Brexit budget. How much is really in this budget? He talked | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
about giving us headroom for a bumpy time. Anyone who sees this rampage | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
and has been following the news in recent weeks will be confused. They | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
will have thought they learned Wednesday as opposed to the budget | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
to reset economic policy, to finally dump George Osborne's legacy that | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
Theresa May is desperate to help struggling families. This headline | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
suggests the austerity of Osborne will continue. It tells us either | :02:56. | :02:59. | |
this is expectation management ahead of Wednesday and perhaps the | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
Chancellor thinks expectations are running ahead of themselves and he | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
needs to slow things down. Or, the other explanation is there is a | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
battle that has gone on, is going on between number ten and number 11. | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
The Prime Minister desperate to help these just about managing families | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
or the JAMS. The Chancellor, if he has any money to spend wants to | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
spend it on investment and better transport or other things that would | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
improve Britain's dreadful productivity and prepare for Brexit. | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
There does seem to be a battle going on in the background. We need to be | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
match fit. ?1 billion for the road network, which Labour are not | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
impressed with? Yes. The issue with roads is no matter how much money | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
you throw at them they will somehow gobble up more money, that is their | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
USP. Made worse by the fact every time you spend money on road it | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
involves roadworks which makes everyone furious. Probably the most | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
annoying way you can spare money, in order to antagonise most people. I | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
feel very much like this is expectation management. We were | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
talking before we came in, sorry to spoil the magic, talking and saying | :04:11. | :04:13. | |
it does feel like they have been building and don't worry, don't | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
worry, it will be fine. And now there is some back slap, just | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
kidding everyone, and a very small bang on Wednesday when it comes, | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
everyone can be relieved. For everyone playing budget bingo I hope | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
JAMS is at the top of your card. It makes an important point on the | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
front, what is coming down the line, unless the Chancellor changes tack, | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
are huge welfare cuts, huge cuts to people on low income and disabled | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
people, a four dear benefit freeze. Whatever goodies he might be able to | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
afford, a few quid off air passenger duty, that is scarcely going to | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
compensate for the enormous sums of money that poor people are set to | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
lose. That brings us nicely to the lead in the Guardian. Here we have | :05:00. | :05:05. | |
them again, the just about managing households. A really high figure, | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
?2500 a year that this can consultancy firm said the families | :05:13. | :05:19. | |
could be missing out on? Yes, and that looking at all kinds of things, | :05:20. | :05:22. | |
including cuts to housing benefit and... And benefit caps and freezes | :05:23. | :05:30. | |
and bedroom taxes, as well as universal tax credit and everything | :05:31. | :05:35. | |
else. ?2500 a year is pretty serious money for most of us, I think, apart | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
from people earning incredibly well. And if you are on that border | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
between managing and not managing the ?2500 a year is serious money. | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
Would research like that change anything before Wednesday? To change | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
it would involve enormous sums of money. This is why George Osborne | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
put it in the budget in the first place, because that is way he could | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
make his savings, the only place he could make savings. Billions and | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
billions of pounds the government simply doesn't have. The other thing | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
we will learn on Wednesday is the size of the Black hole to come | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
because of Brexit. On Wednesday even the biggest fantasist in the Brexit | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
Camp Nou think we are out of the woods and there is no economic | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
damage from the vote in June will surely have to make some | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
concessions, because the economy will slow down next year, as the | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
forecaster said, and that will open up a huge black hole. The government | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
will have less money, not more money. That there were contradictory | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
figures, which lead us to believe things are not so bad. Unemployment | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
figures are better than they have been in ages. There are those in | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
favour of Brexit who can say, the wheels have come off like people | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
said they would. Some people were expecting it to be much worse by | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
now, won't they? I think there's a difference in the forecast made by | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
economists and the forecasts made by George Osborne. George Osborne mate | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
and crazy forecasts, that there would be an instant deep recession | :07:00. | :07:00. | |
and there would have to be an emergency budget. I do believe | :07:01. | :07:15. | |
that I don't think most people did. The economic forecasts are very | :07:16. | :07:17. | |
different, people will stop spending because of a nervousness about | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
Brexit. Companies. Investing because of the same nervousness. That is | :07:20. | :07:21. | |
still most likely. The Daily Telegraph. Nicolas Sarkozy suffers | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
shock defeat in the first round of the French primaries. We were saying | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
it surprising that this story isn't an more front pages. This is the | :07:32. | :07:38. | |
exercise to select the centre-right candidate who will have to take on | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
Marine le Pen from the National front next year. Yes, despite the | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
fact of the referendum, France is quite near and it does have a bit of | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
an impact on us, who's in charge of France. Like you say, on the front | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
of every paper... But perhaps people went to press too early, perhaps | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
these results came in quite late. Yes, the person who has defeated | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
Nicolas Sarkozy is Francois Fillon, described by the Daily Telegraph as | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
a Thatcherite with a Welsh wife. Glorious turn of phrase. I think we | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
are given to understand that perhaps he is a fan, but perhaps not as | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
much, perhaps just likes one Welsh person and married her. As a | :08:27. | :08:30. | |
Welshman I was excited. This was your moment! We never get any Welsh | :08:31. | :08:37. | |
prime ministers in this country. But apparently, despite his love for his | :08:38. | :08:43. | |
wife, doesn't like the rest of us Brits very much. I think he's on | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
record saying it must be a hard Brexit unless Britain makes | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
concessions in the talks. He wants to ban British MEPs from voting | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
straightaway, wants the deal done fast. Doesn't sound like there will | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
be any concessions from Paris if he wins, two Theresa May. If he doesn't | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
win, and are Marine le Pen does when... -- win. What's interesting | :09:06. | :09:14. | |
about Nicolas Sarkozy is he moved to the writing pursuit of the popular | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
vote and it didn't work, in this case, when it comes to being | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
selected for the party? What we have to appreciate is the theme in 2016, | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
which looks like carrying into 2017, the phrase shock defeat is no longer | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
usable, pretty much by definition if it is a shock to this vision it | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
should have been what we were expecting to happen. I think you are | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
right. -- if it is a shock decision. I was talking to poster from Germany | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
today saying he could not predict what was going to happen. According | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
to the metro, Tony Blair back in politics because Jeremy Corbyn is a | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
nutter and Theresa May is a lightweight. To what extent is he | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
really coming back into politics? I thought you are going to do what | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
extent is he a nutter and she a lightweight! LAUGHTER | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
That our libel laws. An eye-catching headline. Perhaps people think, what | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
seat is he running for, will he be my MP Chris Wratt the answer is no. | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
There is no suggestion he will return to front line politics, but | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
he wants to dip his toe in the water, to the extent of setting up a | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
new commission, some sort of think tank to be more closely involved in | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
British politics from that sort of angle to either stop Brexit or amend | :10:32. | :10:33. | |
Brexit. He thinks Brexit will be a disaster. He thinks he even has | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
allies on the conservative side to work behind the scenes. Perhaps he | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
had spoken to George Osborne. What will people think of this? | :10:41. | :10:43. | |
Presumably they will think he is the most deluded person in the country, | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
as people's minds were made up about Tony Blair a long time ago and not | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
very favourably. Or who knows, maybe there are people out there who are | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
so disillusioned with politics as it currently is, they can forget Tony | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
Blair's failings and maybe even look back fondly to aspects of his rule. | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
Time will tell. Some people would think anything he goes near would | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
not help the people he's trying to help? Yes, I think that's probably | :11:10. | :11:15. | |
true. I think he has a slight, slight, meze ionic attitude to the | :11:16. | :11:21. | |
world. I think he goes, there is a problem, I could fix this and | :11:22. | :11:24. | |
launches himself at it. Which in some ways is proactive and exactly | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
what we would like to be happening, as opposed to everyone sitting | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
around and claim this is terrible, this Brexit. Maybe if we sit here | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
long enough it will be fine. But I think it is rarely the right answer | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
when he makes that choice. How would he do any of that from within an | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
institute he has set up? It doesn't sound like a proactive place to be | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
doing things. Best case scenario if you could get people onto the BBC to | :11:50. | :11:53. | |
offer an alternative opinion, to do a bit of shaping of the public | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
debate. I feel like public debate is probably moving in the direction | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
it's going to move in already. He's a fantastic orator, even his | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
greatest critics would have to concede that. He has an incredible | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
capacity for persuasion but I think he comes with too much baggage, | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
doesn't he? Yes. I suggested before maybe some people would change their | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
minds if they are really depressed about politics in the way it stands. | :12:17. | :12:20. | |
But the headline is incorrect, is it? He's not going to be back in | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
politics in the way we normally understand it. But he clearly wants | :12:25. | :12:28. | |
to play some sort of role, trying to change events to some degree. If you | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
want to be rehabilitated into the Labour Party you have to dance! | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
That's true. Try the tango. The Telegraph. British children bottom | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
of world fitness league. This makes some very depressing reading. Where | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
does this come from? Research on 38 countries for the amount of physical | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
activity done by children. England and Wales finished below the likes | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
of Poland, Slovenia and Venezuela. They gave us a D minus. They said | :13:00. | :13:07. | |
only about 15% of girls aged 11-15 are doing the one hour a day of | :13:08. | :13:12. | |
moderate physical activity, which is recommended. If you think the miners | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
is bad, you need to also think about Scotland, which gets an F. This | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
comparison was done a couple of years ago, 2014. I think England had | :13:24. | :13:27. | |
a seedy rating then, so things seem to be getting worse. At a particular | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
point in HR's life it seems to get worse? It is disheartening. The use | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
of the phrase bottom of the world because of where the line break is. | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
The fitness league is only 38 countries, so not literally at the | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
bottom of the world, although it does feel a bit like it when you | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
read the numbers, which is that one in five primary school children, | :13:52. | :13:54. | |
when they start primary school one in ten is obese, by the time they | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
leave its one in five. 20%. That is a huge number. 15% of girls are | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
doing exercise of an hour a day. 20% of children are already obese at 11. | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
That seems like a terrifying number. We keep reading the almost packed | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
phrase that this is the generation that will die before the age their | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
parents reach, but I'm not sure how we're still saying that kind of | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
glibly. It's a horrifying statistic. The suggestion is families need to | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
make a change to everyday routines, to build in more exercise, is that | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
right? They are calling it a super drug. If it were a drug and you | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
could bottle it, they are saying this would be the pill. Exercise, | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
exercise, exercise. It seems we have had many years looking at behaviour | :14:46. | :14:52. | |
and the figures are getting worse. One head teacher introduced a one | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
mile run every day for pupils. That has got some publicity, some praise. | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
A few of the schools are copying it, but it doesn't seem to be spreading | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
widely. The problem is our school curriculum is jam-packed with | :15:05. | :15:08. | |
teaching the stuff that's really important, literacy and numeracy, | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
but perhaps more space needs to be found for physical activity and | :15:13. | :15:15. | |
forced at school, the only place where you can enforce it. A mile... | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
I'm not saying it's not far but a lot less than an hour unless you go | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
extremely slowly, it won't take you on our. Even I might manage it. | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
Let's stay with the Telegraph this unhappy news. Keeping his crown. | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
Andy Murray. You watched the match? I did. To be honest it was very | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
stressful flipping between that and the Strictly results. He is my total | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
hero, after my hero because of his complete deadpan expression and | :15:45. | :15:49. | |
refusal to answer facile questions with facile replies but always super | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
serious and undermining. Look how happy he looks. He was so exhausted. | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
He played Raonic for three hours and 30 minutes yesterday, the two | :15:59. | :16:04. | |
longest ever 80 port -- 80 port -- ATP tour matches. He played both of | :16:05. | :16:12. | |
them. It was astonishing. And against Djokovic to achieve this, | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
it's not just anybody. It is the world number two. It would have been | :16:17. | :16:22. | |
unthinkable just a few years ago, let alone when I was growing up, | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
that there could be a British number one. That is the scale of his | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
achievement. I think we are in awe of his physical capabilities to do | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
it day after day. I thought Djokovic would win today and it turned out to | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
be quite easy. The number two, three, four and five players in the | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
world because he is number one, it's amazing. You know your stuff! I love | :16:43. | :16:45. | |
him, mock me not. That's it for The Papers | :16:46. | :16:47. | |
for this hour. Don't forget all the front pages | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
are online on the BBC News website where you can read a detailed review | :16:51. | :16:57. | |
of the papers. You can see a repeat of this | :16:58. | :17:09. | |
addition as well. But don't wait for that, we will be back live in just | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
under one hour's time. Coming up next - | :17:12. | :17:13. | |
it's Meet the Author. The rise of the Irish writer | :17:14. | :17:22. | |
Cecelia Ahern has been | :17:23. | :17:25. |
