Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
With me are Miranda Green from the FT and Christopher Hope, | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
who's Chief political correspondent at the Daily Telegraph. | :00:23. | :00:24. | |
Tomorrow's front pages, starting with - | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
The Daily Mirror says the "Truck killer could strike again". | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
It quotes a source in the German police as saying the killer | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
The Telegraph says there's a manhunt in Berlin and across Europe | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
after the police admitted they'd arrested the wrong man. | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
The Times leads on the manhunt for the killer too. | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
It says the attack was the worst terrorist attack on German | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
The Metro recounts the death of the lorry's legitimate driver, | :00:49. | :00:54. | |
as he fought to try to stop the hijacker | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
The 'i' says Europe is on a Christmas terror alert. | :00:57. | :01:04. | |
It says British lorry drivers have been ordered to keep their cabs | :01:05. | :01:07. | |
The Mail says "so much for peace", as armed police guard the nativity | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
The Express leads on a different story. | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
It says Theresa May has refused to guarantee a vote in parliament | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
on the terms of Britain's exit from the European Union. | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
The paper says MPs won't be able to block Brexit. | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
The Guardian. I know it is difficult political leaning to your own paper. | :01:27. | :01:39. | |
I hope you can deal with it. The hunt for the truck attacker | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
continues as the far right puts blame on Merkel. Paying tribute to | :01:45. | :01:52. | |
those who died. The pressure really piling up on her just months before | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
her election. A grieving chancellor there. Her face shows all the weight | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
and the strain on trying to deal with the tragedy. Not clear when it | :02:02. | :02:07. | |
was taken because most of the day we thought that the sky they arrested | :02:08. | :02:18. | |
-- this guy, it wasn't the right person. That would be difficult for | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
her. You can argue that she can't be blamed for all the crimes some of | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
them will commit because they will be criminals within any cohort of | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
the population that it is a terrific photo used in many papers including | :02:32. | :02:39. | |
our own, the Telegraph. The Guardian makes the point that there is no | :02:40. | :02:48. | |
evidence that they know it was inspired by Isis. The language used | :02:49. | :03:04. | |
is similar. They want any good propaganda from their point of view | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
as possible. They are going to jump on this even if it's got nothing to | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
do with them. S not only that. The interesting thing about choosing to | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
a chap Germany -- attack Germany, they can't blame it on German | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
foreign policy. Usually when there is a terrorist out break in the | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
West, like in France, they can say that this is an offence for | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
intervention in the middle leaves. -- revenge. Germany is a pacifist | :03:33. | :03:41. | |
nation, in recent history. You can't blame the lazy link between foreign | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
policy and a terrorist attack. A link can be made potentially by | :03:47. | :03:52. | |
Angela Merkel's political opponents with her policy on letting all the | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
refugees into Germany over the last 18 months. They will be capitalising | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
on that even if the perpetrator of this attack turns out not to have | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
been a refugee himself because that's the environment in which we | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
are. It's the run-up to a general election and she will be personally | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
blamed. You are trying to prescribe a logical thing on IS. As to why | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
they attack people. They just attack people. Including Muslims. But they | :04:26. | :04:35. | |
like division. There is often a lazy link made between Western foreign | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
policy. That is not available in this case. Absolutely right. The | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
Metro headline. Interesting angle they are taking. He fought to the | :04:47. | :04:55. | |
end. This is the lorry driver that was found shot dead and attacked in | :04:56. | :05:04. | |
the lorry. His face is loaded and battered as though he was in a fight | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
with somebody. Interesting how the papers are treating this story. As | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
we go through the papers, we see them winning it back home. We are | :05:17. | :05:25. | |
still focusing on the Metro. He fought to the end. What can you say? | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
It looks like he was held captive while the lorry drove towards the | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
market. And then found with one shot wounds as well. -- gunshot. British | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
lorry drivers are on high alert and have been advised they have to be | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
careful and keep their cab doors locked and so forth. In this German | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
attack, a truck was hijacked. Earlier in the year we also saw the | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
horrendous truck ploughing through the crowds in Meese on the most | :06:04. | :06:12. | |
exciting day of the French national calendar -- Nice. Bastille Day. Now | :06:13. | :06:19. | |
they have been ordered to keep their cab doors locked at all times, lorry | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
drivers. All the papers covering it differently. It is the fear of | :06:25. | :06:40. | |
copycat violence. Once a method for mayhem has been exploited by one | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
terrorist, particularly if it is a lone wolf attack that is later | :06:45. | :06:51. | |
claimed by Isis, you're planting the seeds in other peoplesheads. A | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
frightening time to be a lorry driver. You are a hijacked target | :06:58. | :07:04. | |
now. Around Europe, Christmas terror alert. All governments across Europe | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
at checking over their policies when it comes to terror alerts. The one | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
in Britain is still severe which means there is a strong likelihood | :07:20. | :07:28. | |
of a terror attack. Lorries are a new weapon and that is why they are | :07:29. | :07:42. | |
saying to lock your doors. The front page of the Daily Mail. Machine-gun | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
cops guard Canterbury's connectivity scene. Peace and goodwill to all | :07:50. | :08:04. | |
men. People representing the figures from the nativity scene. Awful to | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
have to see them be protected so clearly. It brings it right home to | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
the season. As the papers suggest is, so much for peace and goodwill. | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
It takes the spirit of Christmas away. Having said that, societies | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
are around Europe have got to do something in order to protect | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
citizens. Absolutely and where do you strike the right balance? | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
Increasing security so that citizens feel safe and cracking down on | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
anything that is fun that makes a free societies in the West. Great | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
places to live because there is a compulsion to say we will carry on | :08:48. | :08:51. | |
and enjoy ourselves in the way we think is right in Western | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
democracies. There is also a line in this mail story where they have gone | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
big on the Canterbury nativity being under guard. They will take a new | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
precautions everywhere. Clearly, anything where crowds gather is | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
going to have to be seen as a potential vulnerable points now | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
which will lead to different levels of policing probably in different | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
security protocols which is only sensible. Islamic State have made it | :09:20. | :09:25. | |
clear to their followers over the world that they should be doing | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
whatever they can to attack targets to show that they are true members | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
of the caliphate. That means throwing rocks, using a knife, | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
pushing people over, using vehicles, anything. Absolutely anything. | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
You're right, Miranda, it's how societies are just to that reality. | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
There is a danger around every single corner. At the same time | :09:53. | :09:59. | |
allowing Asprey society to be free -- allowing a free society. | :10:00. | :10:11. | |
Conundrum. There is a bit on the Berlin lorry attack here as well on | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
the Daily Express. But why MPs would be able to block Brexit. The Supreme | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
Court will have something to say. Not just yet. We have got the | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
Supreme Court hearing which will be in the first or second week of | :10:33. | :10:35. | |
January and they will decide whether MPs get a vote. It is all about | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
deciding, the High Court has ruled about when Brexit happens and when | :10:41. | :10:47. | |
we trigger Article 50. What they are talking about here is the reason | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
they gave evidence today. MPs will be able to block Brexit. That is her | :10:53. | :10:59. | |
opinion. If the Supreme Court finds otherwise, they will have to suck it | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
up. She didn't give that much away, though, did she? She never does. | :11:05. | :11:13. | |
What do you call her? The Sphinx. Apparently her favourite historical | :11:14. | :11:20. | |
figure is Elizabeth one. She was quite good at constructive ambiguity | :11:21. | :11:28. | |
and not letting your intentions be known. That seems to be her strategy | :11:29. | :11:34. | |
on Brexit and has critics over that strategy but today was another | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
occasion she tried to give us little away as possible and try to be as | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
dull as possible to avoid any headlines. The Daily Express, as you | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
rightly pointed out, has campaigned for Britain to leave the EU. Even | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
her giving a little bit away hasn't stopped them splashing with it on a | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
day when all other papers have gone with the tragedy on Berlin. That is | :11:57. | :12:04. | |
fair enough for them. That's its crusade. The Telegraph. She is | :12:05. | :12:24. | |
slowing down a little bit. The Queen has handed over some of her | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
responsibilities. Of course, she has many. So she has handed over a few. | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
Some of the papers have shown a photograph of her with Prince | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
Charles at leaning over her in a rather protective way. What she | :12:45. | :12:56. | |
won't do is hand over the crown. She has made that clear. The Duchess of | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
Cambridge is a big tennis fan so she has grasped with great speed | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
Wimbledon and passports corresponded was saying earlier that tennis | :13:08. | :13:16. | |
didn't find the Queen. A great gig for Kate, though. That's a good one | :13:17. | :13:24. | |
to get, Wimbledon. Bail us want to be more busy. -- they always want to | :13:25. | :13:35. | |
be more busy. Finally the times. Dick van Dyke to start in Mary | :13:36. | :13:43. | |
Poppins Returns. -- Star. He is 94 now. Sorry, 91. He is going to make | :13:44. | :13:53. | |
a sequel of Mary Poppins. Will his accent be any worse? That's the key | :13:54. | :14:10. | |
question. Cor blimey, guvna. We have the Queen and Dick Van Dyke refusing | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
to retire. He says he keeps fit in his 90s just out of pure defiance. | :14:16. | :14:25. | |
He refuses to go. I think he would be great in Mary Poppins. Cor | :14:26. | :14:30. | |
blimey. Many thanks to you guys. Don't forget all the front pages | :14:31. | :14:39. | |
