Police and St Lucia are questioning three men about the death of British

:00:00.:00:00.

man Roger Pratt, who was killed as he tried to protect his wife from

:00:00.:00:00.

attackers on board their yacht. Hello and welcome to our look ahead

:00:00.:00:21.

to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With us are Tom Chivers

:00:22.:00:26.

of the Telegraph and Anne Ashworth. Both of your papers are in the

:00:27.:00:31.

stack. Let's start with the front pages. A photo of British man Roger

:00:32.:00:35.

Pratt, murdered whilst holidaying with his wife Margaret in St Lucia,

:00:36.:00:39.

is on the front page of the Telegraph. The paper also carries a

:00:40.:00:43.

special report claims that UK is Lynne is fighting in Syria have been

:00:44.:00:47.

trained to return to this country to carry out attacks -- is Lynne is

:00:48.:01:00.

this. Chocolate can cut the risk of

:01:01.:01:02.

developing diabetes, says the Daily Express. The paper reports that red

:01:03.:01:10.

wine, tea and berries also help. Teachers and 130 public schools have

:01:11.:01:13.

been implicated in sex crimes against hundreds of children, claims

:01:14.:01:18.

the Times. A dramatic picture of violent protests in the Ukrainian

:01:19.:01:21.

capital Kiev is on the front page of the Financial Times. The paper also

:01:22.:01:25.

reports that David Cameron may be isolating himself in Europe. And the

:01:26.:01:30.

Queen is taking a back-seat when it comes to some royal, says the Daily

:01:31.:01:35.

Mirror. Prince Charles is stepping in and taking the reins in what is

:01:36.:01:38.

seen as a move towards him becoming king. And the Daily Mail runs with

:01:39.:01:45.

its main story on a letter from Iain Duncan Smith entries may saying

:01:46.:01:48.

Britain's welfare system should not be a magnet for members of other EU

:01:49.:01:53.

states. So let's begin, starting with the Guardian. The headliners,

:01:54.:01:59.

patient records to be sold from NHS database. This is a single English

:02:00.:02:05.

database of medical information that is being created. We're getting

:02:06.:02:10.

through the post. I certainly have, information saying, if you want to

:02:11.:02:14.

opt out of the ability for this information to be shared more

:02:15.:02:18.

widely, that is what you need to do. On the face of it, Tom, this is

:02:19.:02:22.

something that might make a lot of people fearful. It may do. People

:02:23.:02:29.

are now so constantly aware of threats to privacy from all sorts of

:02:30.:02:35.

routes, but this is, to me this seems a pretty straightforwardly

:02:36.:02:38.

good thing. I was speaking to some people yesterday, and they feel it

:02:39.:02:45.

is absolutely, this will allow huge improvements in how they can share

:02:46.:02:48.

and therefore do research. Things that are difficult to do

:02:49.:02:52.

old-fashioned, randomised controlled trials, they will be easier to do.

:02:53.:03:01.

Things like the link between autism and MMR, the disapproving of that,

:03:02.:03:07.

was possible through medical data through this. They just looked at

:03:08.:03:15.

the data. Exactly, they looked at the data of people who had been

:03:16.:03:18.

treated in the past. It's genuinely saves lives. Of course, there are

:03:19.:03:23.

concerns over privacy and it has to be dealt with sensibly. But I think

:03:24.:03:28.

this is one of those times when privacy is not a problem. This is a

:03:29.:03:34.

way of saving lives. I wonder if anyone doesn't have our data

:03:35.:03:45.

already? There are concerns as to who will have access to these

:03:46.:03:51.

records. You don't have a choice in who gets the information. You either

:03:52.:03:55.

have to say, no, I don't want it to give a note or I do. There is no

:03:56.:04:02.

halfway. It does for the first time explained that rather strange letter

:04:03.:04:05.

that we got from the NHS. Askin about, reassuring us about the way

:04:06.:04:10.

in which our information was being shared. It is a flyer that comes

:04:11.:04:16.

through the door explaining the situation, it is not addressed to us

:04:17.:04:21.

individually, necessarily. Isn't it the case that a lot of people just

:04:22.:04:25.

will not act upon it, either through inertia are not understanding the

:04:26.:04:31.

implications? That may well be the case. Presumably those people are

:04:32.:04:33.

not overly worried about the NHS having their data. You are now

:04:34.:04:40.

beginning to assume that nothing is private any more. That all

:04:41.:04:45.

information is being shared. We know from previous editions of the

:04:46.:04:49.

Guardian and all of the Snowdon revelations that nothing is secret

:04:50.:04:55.

any more. But I just love this word, pseudonymous Asian, which is making

:04:56.:05:09.

all of the information anonymous. -- pseudonymisation. This article says

:05:10.:05:17.

the extracted information will contain your NHS number, unique to

:05:18.:05:20.

the individual, date of birth, postcode, you could probably find

:05:21.:05:28.

out who that is. There will be times when data can only be useful when it

:05:29.:05:32.

is barely identifiable. In those cases, clinicians will have to make

:05:33.:05:41.

stringent cases. -- fairly identifiable. They will have to make

:05:42.:05:48.

a case to the regulator. Normally it is not quite as straightforward as

:05:49.:05:55.

that. The conspiracy theorists will pounce on this story, but I think we

:05:56.:05:59.

all have to conclude that it is essentially for our good. Let's move

:06:00.:06:04.

on and look at the Daily Telegraph. Britain sent by Al-Qaeda -- Britons

:06:05.:06:13.

sent by Al-Qaeda. Security forces reckon there are about 500 British

:06:14.:06:17.

people who have gone to take up arms in Syria. And they will bring back

:06:18.:06:22.

with them at some point the skills, if you can college that, the

:06:23.:06:27.

know-how of how to stage attacks like 9/11, like the July bombings in

:06:28.:06:34.

London. This is a new aspects to the Syrian conflict, this idea that it

:06:35.:06:39.

is becoming a training place. This place really have advanced tutorials

:06:40.:06:44.

on how to become a terrorist. Late last year, MI5 were talking about

:06:45.:06:46.

that being one of the central concerns about Syria. But it was a

:06:47.:06:51.

training ground for terrorists who can attack us here. This is putting

:06:52.:06:59.

flesh on the bones of those fears. If there are over 500, might they

:07:00.:07:04.

have an idea of who the 500 are? You wonder, although how often has that

:07:05.:07:12.

worked in the past? It's amazing how much the security services delve

:07:13.:07:15.

into our lives and then let people slip through anyway. I think this is

:07:16.:07:21.

going to be high on the agenda, at the Geneva II talks. As to exactly

:07:22.:07:30.

how Al-Qaeda is allowed, is sending out its emissary is all over the

:07:31.:07:34.

world from the Syrian conflict. We know that the Syrian opposition is

:07:35.:07:38.

made up of so many factions, and that Al-Qaeda is such a powerful

:07:39.:07:43.

part of that, . Only last Friday, two men from Birmingham were

:07:44.:07:49.

charged, we reported it year, with travelling to Syria to carry out

:07:50.:07:52.

acts of terrorism. The assumption wasn't necessarily that they were

:07:53.:07:58.

going to bring that back here, which is a very different thing. It has

:07:59.:08:04.

always been what happens for ever with terrorist cells, they go to the

:08:05.:08:11.

lawless places in the world. The Yemen, Afghanistan, places on the

:08:12.:08:15.

Pakistan border. Syria has exploded, it is now a lawless place where you

:08:16.:08:19.

can learn to fight and go and fight and learn these awful skills. It is

:08:20.:08:25.

a sobering, serious night in the newspapers. It is the second story

:08:26.:08:29.

that causes you to think. Very serious story. Let's stay with the

:08:30.:08:36.

Telegraph. Lord Rennard is ready to defy Clegg and rejoin the Lib Dem

:08:37.:08:41.

peer 's. This story has been bubbling away for days and will be

:08:42.:08:45.

very interesting tomorrow. Nick Clegg wants an apology from Lord

:08:46.:08:49.

Rennard. He continues to say he has not done anything wrong. There is

:08:50.:08:54.

now beyond reasonable doubt case to be brought against him. -- no

:08:55.:09:01.

reasonable doubt case. It is not something that can be actions. --

:09:02.:09:07.

actioned legally. Nick Clegg is in a bind with this. Poor Nick Clegg. The

:09:08.:09:15.

man keeps getting caught up in what is essentially the minutia of the

:09:16.:09:20.

management of his party rather than forming policy. For women for

:09:21.:09:25.

example, this is going to put the Lib Dems in quite a poor light. That

:09:26.:09:30.

is exactly what Nick Clegg is wanting to avoid. But there doesn't

:09:31.:09:37.

seem to be any way out for him. Neither are his peers in the Lords

:09:38.:09:41.

giving Nick Clegg and out, I can't understand why. Somebody should be

:09:42.:09:45.

finding a graceful exit from the situation. He ends up looking so

:09:46.:09:50.

weak. Without worrying about the situation, by crikey, I demand an

:09:51.:09:58.

apology. How can you demand an apology from someone who maintains,

:09:59.:10:01.

still says I have not done anything wrong. There is no case being

:10:02.:10:06.

brought against me. It is not up to the party leader to decide. It is up

:10:07.:10:13.

to the peers. It almost looks like a foregone conclusion that it will

:10:14.:10:17.

happen tomorrow. The biggest split seems to be between the two sides of

:10:18.:10:21.

what is quite a small party. 54 seats. Yet this is beginning to

:10:22.:10:28.

overwhelm everything else that we know about the Lib Dems. Let's look

:10:29.:10:34.

at the Times. 130 primary -- drive its schools in -- Private schools.

:10:35.:10:42.

Implicated in sex crimes against hundreds of children. Can I show you

:10:43.:10:47.

the graphic? I don't think we can any more. Where are you? There you

:10:48.:10:54.

are, not the women in the low-cut top, it is this. This is very, very

:10:55.:11:03.

well-known schools, top schools in the country. Places like Eton

:11:04.:11:09.

College and the like. Connected with this decades of abuse. I find

:11:10.:11:17.

interesting, one of the reasons why this is all coming to light is that

:11:18.:11:21.

people are more willing, it is no more respectable to say this is

:11:22.:11:24.

abuse, not the sort of thing we don't talk about. I remember reading

:11:25.:11:30.

in Richard Dawkins' biography, something that happened in school.

:11:31.:11:39.

Growing up with a stiff upper lip. Your parents are paying handsomely

:11:40.:11:44.

for it. Exactly, so you can't complain, but note, this is not all

:11:45.:11:53.

right. It is the reputation of the schools that is damaged. They will

:11:54.:11:58.

be concerned by this story. Some teachers seem to have been prolific

:11:59.:12:02.

abusers allowed to move from job to job, that is the thing that will

:12:03.:12:06.

most concerned parents. Let's finish with the Financial Times. Here we

:12:07.:12:14.

are. It is more reliable, me holding it up. Cameron at odds with EU

:12:15.:12:19.

allies on migration. David Cameron was hoping that Germany and a few

:12:20.:12:21.

others would support him on restricting movement around the EU.

:12:22.:12:27.

But they think it is a really good idea, so they are not going to. They

:12:28.:12:32.

have got an influx of educated Italians, Spaniards, who have

:12:33.:12:36.

learned the language and they see it has done wonders for their

:12:37.:12:38.

workforce, probably boosted their economy. Cameron had, for some

:12:39.:12:43.

reason, thought that the Germans would side with him. It must have

:12:44.:12:50.

come from somewhere, in the corridors of power in Brussels, some

:12:51.:12:55.

conference or other, he must have got the distinct impression from

:12:56.:13:00.

somebody in Germany. It would require completely uprooting

:13:01.:13:04.

everything that the whole system is based around. You wonder if it is

:13:05.:13:09.

almost wishful thinking thing, he realises the only way he can sell

:13:10.:13:12.

the EU to his own party and to the Eurosceptic wing is by saying,

:13:13.:13:17.

please someone in Germany just throw me a bone. He won't get many

:13:18.:13:26.

concessions. Now, all alone. It shows again, migration, the big

:13:27.:13:33.

political topic. We are some way off the election but we are not done

:13:34.:13:36.

talking about it. We will carry on talking about it at 11:30pm as well.

:13:37.:13:40.

Anna and Tom will be back with us again. Stay with us here on BBC

:13:41.:13:46.

News. We will have more about the pressure mounting against Lord

:13:47.:13:49.

Rennard, the Lib Dem peer. Next, it is time for Click.

:13:50.:14:08.

Engine off. No, engine off. Engine off!
