watching, coming up is the papers. -- thank you very much for watching.

:00:00.:00:16.

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

:00:17.:00:19.

With me are the business academic Melanie Eusebe and Joel Taylor,

:00:20.:00:38.

Let's take a look at the front pages then...

:00:39.:00:42.

The Telegraph reports on comments made by Bank of England

:00:43.:00:44.

governor Mark Carney, warning of people being left behind

:00:45.:00:47.

case in the supreme court - where the government is arguing

:00:48.:00:55.

that the referendum gave Ministers the power to trigger brexit

:00:56.:00:57.

with some Conservative Mps threatening to vote with Labour

:00:58.:01:03.

in a parliamentary vote later this week.

:01:04.:01:06.

The Metro's front page is devoted to a report

:01:07.:01:08.

a high number of assaults against members of the emergency

:01:09.:01:12.

The Guardian carries news of more allegations about child sex abuse in

:01:13.:01:38.

football. This headline paraphrases the government case. And the Times

:01:39.:01:43.

reports that Britain should finish the year with the fastest growing

:01:44.:01:46.

economy in the G7 group. The High Court was wrong, for calling the

:01:47.:01:51.

decision legally irrelevant on whether MPs should vote on the

:01:52.:01:58.

"Brexit" choice. For me, I think that this is getting more and more

:01:59.:02:05.

confusing. We voted yes or no, as a population. Now we are getting into

:02:06.:02:09.

the weeds of how it is going to happen. I think that this is leaving

:02:10.:02:13.

most of the population behind in terms of the population. We are

:02:14.:02:19.

entering into this territory where I think that inflammatory statements

:02:20.:02:23.

like judges are wrong about the EU exit are what the populace is going

:02:24.:02:27.

to work on. Rather than what actually needs to happen. That has

:02:28.:02:37.

been frankly the problem through this whole debate. The referendum,

:02:38.:02:45.

post-referendum. The public are not well served by many of us in the

:02:46.:02:50.

media. It is very tricky, this article is interesting, it talks

:02:51.:02:54.

about judges being wrong, very definite, the Attorney General

:02:55.:02:57.

slammed a High Court ruling, almost makes it sound like today's

:02:58.:03:02.

proceedings were dramatic, having listened, it really was not! Iain

:03:03.:03:04.

Duncan Smith said it was like watching paint dry. I should imagine

:03:05.:03:12.

he would probably know! The problem is we get phone calls, people say,

:03:13.:03:18.

we wanted to leave, why haven't we left, but there is no clear idea of

:03:19.:03:23.

what leaving the EU means, the government is going through this

:03:24.:03:26.

appeal in the Supreme Court, does it really need to have done so? Be not,

:03:27.:03:31.

it has the support in the House of Commons to get the Article 50 vote,

:03:32.:03:36.

but it is... Why are they pushing it? It is about the parameters. We

:03:37.:03:47.

were not well prepared as a country in terms of what we would have to do

:03:48.:03:51.

their afterwards. The promises that were made, if you vote out, we are

:03:52.:03:56.

pressing the out button tomorrow. Rather than it being, OK, if you

:03:57.:04:00.

vote out, we understand this is how you feel as a population, and we are

:04:01.:04:04.

going to investigate what that means. So the actuality is that we

:04:05.:04:08.

have two investigate what it means to leave. Inflammatory statements

:04:09.:04:15.

like this, you are right, it is not describe what the proceedings are

:04:16.:04:18.

going to look like, it is going to be a long dreary process. Whose

:04:19.:04:23.

fault is this? LAUGHTER Well... Quite a long list... The

:04:24.:04:29.

Conservatives, David Cameron Giffnock want it to get to this

:04:30.:04:33.

stage, expected to win the vote, he lost the vote, left immediately, no

:04:34.:04:36.

clear direction within the government about where to go next,

:04:37.:04:42.

on the other hand, Theresa May, I get the impression, with Boris

:04:43.:04:45.

Johnson, she is sending him out to different parts of the world to test

:04:46.:04:49.

the water to see how far he can push, where he can take Brexit two,

:04:50.:04:54.

and people will say, don't be silly. I think it is a cunning plan, TUC

:04:55.:04:59.

where the limits are. -- to see where he can take "Brexit" to. -- to

:05:00.:05:09.

see where the limits are. Just listen to what they are saying,

:05:10.:05:15.

rather than have this very English, ironic, we can push things, we can

:05:16.:05:22.

tweak things approach. But they are just plain speaking in Europe, you

:05:23.:05:25.

are not going to get access to the single market without free movement

:05:26.:05:29.

of people. That is what they have been saying, why don't we just

:05:30.:05:34.

accept that? Why didn't we accept that before we press the button?

:05:35.:05:42.

Good things become a little more clear, if, as is being reported

:05:43.:05:46.

here, there is a win for the Labour Party and their motion, with some

:05:47.:05:51.

Tories potentially backing it... In order for the government to explain

:05:52.:05:57.

at least the outlines of its Brexit strategy, might that help the public

:05:58.:06:01.

understand what is going on? Survey, we will wait to see if this revolt

:06:02.:06:06.

really materialises, I have seen 20 Tory MPs, 40, 50, we will see... The

:06:07.:06:13.

government has been very definite, it does not want to reveal anything

:06:14.:06:18.

good for negotiation start, it thinks it will weaken their hand,

:06:19.:06:23.

but we know that as soon as they present their hand, through the EU,

:06:24.:06:27.

the EU will show everybody. There is a fundamental flaw, whether... The

:06:28.:06:33.

other problem Labour has, they have not got a clear idea of what to do

:06:34.:06:37.

either. Keir Starmer, who was a very impressive lawyer, he is now in the

:06:38.:06:41.

Parliamentary Labour Party, and he is trusted with this job of creating

:06:42.:06:46.

a Labour policy, when really, the Labour Party is all over the place.

:06:47.:06:53.

Part of the point about the role of Parliament in all of this, the

:06:54.:06:59.

majority are remain. The majority are remain as, and unfortunately, it

:07:00.:07:02.

may be interpreted as one last-ditch effort to prevent "Brexit". I think

:07:03.:07:08.

this is going to add to the confusion that... Everyone else who

:07:09.:07:14.

was not part of the government, in regards to what is happening with

:07:15.:07:19.

Brexit, why don't we just say that we don't know, why not say we have

:07:20.:07:22.

never been here before and we don't know, rather than is being, force

:07:23.:07:26.

someone's hand to reveal a plan that quite frankly we know they do not

:07:27.:07:32.

have! They do not have a plan. Not yet, anyway. Will they have it in

:07:33.:07:41.

time? By March? Time is the one thing that will force them to come

:07:42.:07:45.

up with a plan. These negotiations last for 18 months and nothing

:07:46.:07:49.

happens until the last couple of weeks, and then they finally start

:07:50.:07:54.

fixing what they want to do. Like students doing their exams! Focusing

:07:55.:07:58.

on High Court rulings, additional vote for the Labour Party, quite

:07:59.:08:02.

frankly, you are not focusing on the plan for Brexit. Bit of a warning

:08:03.:08:08.

here, on the Daily Telegraph, Mark Carney, governor of the Bank of

:08:09.:08:13.

England, he's warning of a lost decade, people losing trust in

:08:14.:08:15.

globalisation as Italy vote threatens Euro. He is only saying

:08:16.:08:21.

what loads of people have been saying for quite a while. The only

:08:22.:08:24.

thing I would change about the title is that they are not losing trust,

:08:25.:08:29.

they have lost trust, and you see that evidence by the Trump vote as

:08:30.:08:36.

well. Globalisation has not work for everyone, there is deep inequality.

:08:37.:08:43.

It is good that Mark Carney was able to identify that, people blaming

:08:44.:08:51.

globalisation. Corporations not paying taxes, insecure unemployment,

:08:52.:08:57.

inequality, it is quite positive that he is identifying that this is

:08:58.:09:02.

where the problem lies, however, on the other hand, in terms of the

:09:03.:09:08.

solutions he has presented in terms of stateless corporations paying

:09:09.:09:12.

taxes, or in regards to the upskilling of the workforce, I think

:09:13.:09:17.

that is something that requires solutions that are much deeper and

:09:18.:09:23.

relies upon a cultural change. Globalisation has failed most of the

:09:24.:09:25.

planet, thinking about how money people are on this planet, the

:09:26.:09:30.

inequality is rife now, and every country, not just west Europe. As

:09:31.:09:36.

far as the developing world is concerned, India, China, Brazil,

:09:37.:09:39.

those states, in fact, globalisation has been a positive benefit. It is

:09:40.:09:46.

in the developing world it has done well, but globalisation has affected

:09:47.:09:48.

the old industrial economies like ours and America. So on and so

:09:49.:09:53.

forth. That is the revolt we are seeing, those old industrial

:09:54.:09:58.

countries, which did well 100 years ago are now struggling. No? With

:09:59.:10:10.

globalisation... You are the business brain. It is about

:10:11.:10:16.

political economy. We can no longer look at nation state, we have to

:10:17.:10:18.

look at the individuals within nation states, there has been a

:10:19.:10:22.

redistribution of wealth at a nation state level but within those nation

:10:23.:10:29.

states is, a million people in China... Women look at

:10:30.:10:39.

globalisation, we look at every individual as an individual.

:10:40.:10:45.

We only have three minutes left already! Onto the times. Britain

:10:46.:10:52.

will be the fastest-growing economy in the G-7. In contrast to the last

:10:53.:11:00.

decade of Mark Carney. Britain could finish the year as the

:11:01.:11:04.

fastest-growing economy for seven leading nations. This is according

:11:05.:11:09.

to an askew index, not one that I'm particular with particularly. This

:11:10.:11:18.

is a consequence of the services sector, doing well, in spite of

:11:19.:11:24.

Brexit. It is good to see there is some optimism in sectors of the

:11:25.:11:27.

economy. They get Mark Carney in there. The first lost decades in the

:11:28.:11:35.

1860s, which is fairly brutal. Even though the economy is

:11:36.:11:40.

fastest-growing, real wages are still not going anywhere. Mark

:11:41.:11:45.

Carney talking about the last ten years flat, 30, 40 years. He has

:11:46.:11:52.

warned that it is going to happen even longer. Very briefly, front

:11:53.:11:57.

page of the Guardian, new claims of hush money as football abuse scandal

:11:58.:12:01.

widens, the picture is ex-players, who claimed they were abused, who

:12:02.:12:05.

have now set up an organisation to help other victims who may have been

:12:06.:12:10.

affected. Finally, we will go to the Turner Prize.

:12:11.:12:16.

Helen Marten has won the Turner prize, the most prestigious art

:12:17.:12:21.

prize in the world today, she has won it, and the article here says

:12:22.:12:27.

that it really is a load of old rubbish(!) that is the criticism of

:12:28.:12:31.

the Turner Prize but she uses everyday items. She does, everything

:12:32.:12:39.

from cotton buds and bicycle chains, marbles, she uses everything. It is

:12:40.:12:43.

representative of the world today, and the lens of the world today. I

:12:44.:12:46.

have not managed to see it yet but it is a sculpture indicating the

:12:47.:12:50.

condition of the world. 31 years old, from Macclesfield, really proud

:12:51.:12:57.

of her. These times as well, Ben Okri and Nicholas Serota, in their

:12:58.:13:02.

speeches, representing her, they spoke of the importance of art. And

:13:03.:13:04.

culture in these times. This is the second award that she

:13:05.:13:22.

has won in a few months. She won the Hepworth prize, ?30,000, she shared

:13:23.:13:29.

that with the other nominees. Very inspirational young lady. In fact,

:13:30.:13:35.

we have a picture for viewers, this is one installation, which is there.

:13:36.:13:39.

This is a collection of stuff... Apparently it is a caterpillar.

:13:40.:13:51.

And... That is not a caterpillar, it looks like a house! The winner of

:13:52.:13:57.

the Turner Prize. You have got to go and see it. Thank you very much for

:13:58.:14:01.

going through the newspapers with us. That is it for the newspapers

:14:02.:14:04.

denied, all the front pages are online at the BBC news website, you

:14:05.:14:08.

can read a detailed review of all of the newspapers. You can see us there

:14:09.:14:14.

too, in all of our glory, with each night's addition, and so thank you

:14:15.:14:24.

again, Melanie, Joel. -- each night edition.
