11/01/2014 The Papers

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

bringing us tomorrow. With me are Vincent Moss, the Political Editor

of the Sunday Mirror, and the author and journalist Shyama Perera. First

the front pages. The Sunday Telegraph is looking at calls from

95 MPs for powers to veto every aspect of EU law.

The Observer reports on Brussels fight against the Government's

attempts to change EU immigration rules.

The Sunday Times has followed that theme and led on a story about the

Government planning to ban EU migrants from claiming welfare

payments for up to two years after arriving in the UK.

The Independent on Sunday revisits the Iraq war, with a story that the

UK is to answer for alleged war crimes.

The Mail on Sunday splashes on more claims about the former Co-op bank

chairman Paul Flowers. So, let's begin! We are going to

talk about Europe, because I don't -- it is in several other papers.

Let's look at how the Telegraph is covering it. 95 Conservative MPs

call for an EU law veto. They want every aspect of EU law to be open to

a veto in Westminster. An extraordinary appeal. It doesn't

stand a chance, does it? Not really. The Eurosceptic Sunday

Telegraph has a story saying that 95 MPs have written to David Cameron,

wanting to block future laws and revise existing laws. They once a

white card to cherry pick the bits they like. It will never happen.

They just want to get out of Europe. They are starting to put the

pressure on as we are coming up to the election. I think that the

elections coming up in Europe, I think these MPs are worried about

the rise of the European -- the UK Independence party. They are piling

pressure on Conservative HQ. The bill that is supposed to give us a

referendum in 2017, even that is looking dicey. Now Bill is going to

get through. What interests me about this, and you probably have the

answer, is how does he and third -- the Prime Minister respond to this?

What is the response? You can say yes. Does he just step back and let

the UK Independence party swallow up all of these constituencies, or does

he do something incredibly stupid? He is ready starting to be

incredibly stupid by trying to buck your -- European Union law. He will

continue to top tough. You will hear stronger and stronger rhetoric on

things like immigration. It probably will change much in reality.

European law takes years to change, not months. Iain Duncan Smith is

talking about being tough on immigration and whether they can

claim benefits. We will hear a lot of this up until the elections in

May because it is the issue that concerns voters the months. We are

going to have the most interesting alliance after the next election.

This will split the vote on over the place. This will not do these MPs

any favours at all. What is really interesting, and I think we should

be running lots on this, or running a book on it, is what is the mix of

the next government going to be? There will not be a majority

government. While all of this is happening, I wish there were some of

the he could step out of the box and say we will end up with the UK

Independence party having 10% and the Conservatives having whatever. I

think we have more of a rough ride ahead, and a new way of government

for the foreseeable future. Like today in Germany, where they have to

form coalitions every time. That would be a real change for us. Is

that how you read this? Yes, although Labour are ahead,

Conservatives are realising that they cannot win unless they come to

some sort of deal with UKIP. That is the thing that obsesses nearly every

conservative MP I speak to. Let's have a look at the story and Europe

in the Observer. It is an essay, really. Defiant Russell slaps down

Britain's threats to rewrite immigration rules. The President of

Europe says that the idea of free movement of such a basic tenants of

the European Union that there is no way we will let that slide. I think

we forget that we are not part of that land mass. On the continental

mainland, people are crossing borders everyday without having to

think about it. Of course they want to keep that. We have got the island

mentality of being scared of people crossing over. He makes the point

that I have heard others make before in the European Union, he said I

would like to see the UK making its case for reform from within the EU

rather than having one hand on the escape hatch. I think George Osborne

will make a speech along those lines this week. The reforms are needed,

that we will stay within and tried to reform from within. The Observer

is very pro-European, saying Brussels. Sign any British FM to

rewrite the immigration rules and there is no chance of curbing free

movement -- curbing free movement between EU states. I don't think

much will change. High in case of the builders with this issue of

Europe? It causes lots of problems with the Conservatives, and always

has. Is it just the aspect of immigration are particularly

concerned people is to mark -- particularly concerns people? I

think voters think it is bonkers that their MPs are concerned about

this boat when they are struggling to pay the bills. In the Observer,

police were aware of Mark Duggan flash points. We saw people

gathering today in Tottenham for a vigil over the death of Mark Duggan,

who was shot lawfully in August 2011. We saw riots spread out across

the country after that shooting. The suggestion here is that the lease

new that the shooting of Mark Duggan would trigger wider disorder and

despite the later came from Scotland Yard that the riot is in Tottenham

could not have been predict did. This is a total nonstory. People

knew that the shooting of Mark Duggan cooed cause widespread

disorder, despite the fact that they claim those riots after Mark Duggan

could have been predicted. They could not predict it was going to

spread across England. What you see when you read on is that they put

into play all sorts of mechanisms to ensure that if there was some I wake

of this order in Tottenham they could deal with it. What they did

not do was think ahead to other places. They plan for what they knew

would happen. What they didn't do is guess what might happen. So, it

confirms that, to me. They were aware that things might happen like

the police station in Tottenham might need a bit more protection,

they were not aware of how big the riots would become. The judges who

sat on all those cases on people who were caught up in the riot said it

was absolutely opportunistic and they couldn't say that it was

connect with some sort of civil protest that happened in London. I

think it was a time when people work climbing the Cenotaph and shops were

having their windows smashed by young protesters. There was a wee of

at rest in the country anyway and this provided an opportunity for

people to vent, but not necessarily about what was happening in

Tottenham. The family of Mark Duggan do not feel they have seen justice

done. We have to trust the jury system. We have to trust that they

did come to the correct verdict. There is a call for a tax on fruit

juice. People should think seriously about it. If you want those

vitamins, have some fruit. With everyone thinking about diets, that

theme is hitting home. I find this story interesting for a different

reason. I think drinks are behind the obesity epidemic. 20, 25 years

ago, when Starbucks and all the big coffee companies started. I would go

in and have four cappuccinos across the day. What I did not think about

was that was probably two pints of milk a day I had not been having

before across five working days. I was having an extra day off Kallis

to ease -- calories every week. When people drink, they do not think in

terms of calories. A lot about sugar at the moment. The Bay City 's art

is suggesting there should be a tax on some of the fizzy drinks. --

globes tomorrow night. Apart from Jennifer Lawrence, the average age

of the 39 women who are nominated for awards, the average age is 45.

In their prime! We disagree about Gravity. That is it for The Papers

this hour. We will be back at 11:30pm. Stay with us here on BBC

News. At 11pm, we'll have more on the legacy of one of the most

influential and divisive figures in Israeli history - Ariel Sharon, who

has died at the age of 85. Coming up next, it's Reporters.
