:00:00. > :00:00.Australia. They have to wait until Sunday in Hobart to get their chance
:00:00. > :00:17.to clinch the series. That in 15 minutes after the papers.
:00:18. > :00:22.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing
:00:23. > :00:26.us tomorrow. With me Caroline Daniel, the editor of the weekend
:00:27. > :00:31.Financial Times, and Torcuil Crichton, the Westminster editor at
:00:32. > :00:34.the Daily Mail. We will start with the Independent. It says that GM
:00:35. > :00:40.super foods could be grown in Britain as early as this year. The
:00:41. > :00:43.Telegraph says that David Cameron believes a recovery for all is under
:00:44. > :00:48.way, with wages rising more quickly than inflation. Onto the Guardian,
:00:49. > :00:51.its leading on the Newsnight interview with the Bank of England
:00:52. > :00:57.governor, who has said interest rates will not be rising any time
:00:58. > :01:01.soon. The Express has news of a new treatment for diabetes. The
:01:02. > :01:04.Financial Times is also leading on Mark Carney, who has been forced to
:01:05. > :01:10.abandon his policy of linking interest rates to unemployment. And
:01:11. > :01:12.the Daily Mail reports on claims that pensioners with cancer are
:01:13. > :01:20.being written off as too old to treat. Lots of news coming out of
:01:21. > :01:28.Davos, where the rich and the good and not so good are gathering. The
:01:29. > :01:32.Prime Minister is there. He apparently, according to the Daily
:01:33. > :01:35.Telegraph, is hailing the start of a recovery for all. And that is
:01:36. > :01:39.following on these figures that have been released this evening by the
:01:40. > :01:43.government that suggests people 's take-home pay, for 80% of the
:01:44. > :01:49.population, is actually outstripping inflation. This is David Cameron's
:01:50. > :01:53.attempt to have a win-win headline. He is trying to take on Ed
:01:54. > :01:57.Miliband's concerns about standards of living, saying that wages are
:01:58. > :02:00.starting to rise again. This is the kind of headline George Osborne has
:02:01. > :02:04.been waiting for four months, as have the Financial Times. But there
:02:05. > :02:15.are still some concerns beneath the headlines. Although he does say that
:02:16. > :02:17.wages are rising for lots of people, we also know that over the last
:02:18. > :02:20.year, average earnings have only gone up by 0.9%, that is below
:02:21. > :02:22.inflation. The idea this is a dramatic rebound for everyone and
:02:23. > :02:25.it's all going to get better from here on in, there are some caveats
:02:26. > :02:30.here. It's the Government trying to have its cake and eat it. We've seen
:02:31. > :02:33.unemployment go down to almost 7%, good news for everyone. The growth
:02:34. > :02:39.figures are going to be revised. This is the Government realising it
:02:40. > :02:44.is not just about the economy, they are also going to have to fight it
:02:45. > :02:47.on the cost of living, which is where Ed Miliband is camped out
:02:48. > :02:53.right now. Cameron hails recovery for all. Does it feel like it in
:02:54. > :02:56.your pocket? No matter what the figures might suggest, and we can
:02:57. > :03:02.discuss and argue over the figures, the question is, do people feel they
:03:03. > :03:06.have enough money to pay the bills? Welcome to Britain where food prices
:03:07. > :03:11.are going up, energy prices are going up, SSE put their prices up by
:03:12. > :03:16.8% and, what do you know, their profits go up by 8%. We have kids
:03:17. > :03:20.who worked 21 hours a week in Tesco, can't get more. We have construction
:03:21. > :03:25.companies are putting their builders at arm's-length payroll company so
:03:26. > :03:28.they can avoid paying tax. It's an on the waterfront economy. That's
:03:29. > :03:34.true, but there is a genuine bounce happening. If you look at the car
:03:35. > :03:41.industry, we reported this week that Britain had made more than 1.5
:03:42. > :03:46.million cars last year. It's the highest number since 2007. That's a
:03:47. > :03:49.genuine number. It put Britain on track to become the third-largest
:03:50. > :03:54.producer in Europe. More and more people are buying new cars going
:03:55. > :04:01.out. Things must be sort of going OK. The Government, its figures
:04:02. > :04:06.tonight, it is saying if you take into account tax cuts up to April
:04:07. > :04:10.2013, that year people are taking home more pay. Yeah, and if you've
:04:11. > :04:14.got a mortgage and your mortgage interest rates are very low, then
:04:15. > :04:17.maybe you have a bit more cash. Or to buy these cars, people are
:04:18. > :04:23.digging into their own savings or they are going to the banks and get
:04:24. > :04:29.another credit. We know where that ends up. It's taken a while to come,
:04:30. > :04:33.but the growth figures are still way below the economic output that the
:04:34. > :04:37.UK used to have before the recession. Yes, it's great news and
:04:38. > :04:41.I'm not going to knock it, I'm really relieved to see recovery
:04:42. > :04:47.starting to come back, but there are still caveats and we shouldn't give
:04:48. > :04:51.Cameron too much fun. Clearly this is a victory of sorts for labour and
:04:52. > :04:55.for Ed Miliband because they've positioned themselves on this cost
:04:56. > :04:58.of living issue and the Conservatives now are having to
:04:59. > :05:04.address that issue. Will this kind of thing work? They are coming at it
:05:05. > :05:08.hard. We saw Osbourne saying that the minimum wage ought to rise to
:05:09. > :05:13.?7. Not that he's in charge of it, not that it's going to happen until
:05:14. > :05:20.after 2015, when he hopes he will be re-elected. There's a recognition
:05:21. > :05:23.that people are hurting. If you are Ed Balls or George Osborne, I think
:05:24. > :05:27.I know who is going to wake up feeling happier looking at the front
:05:28. > :05:36.pages tomorrow out of the two of them. Mike microbe the Financial
:05:37. > :05:41.Times. Six months ago it was said if the rate of unemployment falls to
:05:42. > :05:46.7%, then he would consider raising interest rates. He's not doing that
:05:47. > :05:52.now, so that policy is dead in the water. It's the biggest story to
:05:53. > :05:57.come out of Davos. I like the choice of language. His big idea is set to
:05:58. > :06:03.bite the dust. This was the policy that if unemployment fell to below
:06:04. > :06:10.7%, it fell to 7.1% this week and in Scotland it is below 7%, he would
:06:11. > :06:14.then look at rising -- raising the interest rates, which would be bad
:06:15. > :06:21.news for borrowers everywhere, but would keep the lid on inflation. He
:06:22. > :06:28.has now turned round in an interview saying, forget it. Is his
:06:29. > :06:31.credibility shot or is he simply adapting to the changed
:06:32. > :06:34.circumstances of the economy? That is his line, but the fact is it is
:06:35. > :06:38.embarrassing for the Bank of England. In terms of their
:06:39. > :06:42.forecasting policy and their ability to predict the future. When Mark
:06:43. > :06:46.Carney arrived on the job, he said in August, when he announced this
:06:47. > :06:50.plan about how he was going to govern the Bank of England policy,
:06:51. > :06:53.they forecast at that point that you wouldn't get to 7% unemployment
:06:54. > :06:59.until mid-2016. A few months later they changed that to mid-2015. Now
:07:00. > :07:05.we're looking at a potentially happening this year. But everyone
:07:06. > :07:10.got that wrong. That is true, but that's a pretty big miss. That was
:07:11. > :07:15.the sort of cornerstone of his policy. He linked it explicitly to
:07:16. > :07:17.unemployment numbers. Now he is broadening it out saying it's not
:07:18. > :07:23.just about unemployment rates, he's looking at the wider economy as
:07:24. > :07:27.well. He is making clear this matters to you and I, the interest
:07:28. > :07:32.rate side. He is not saying that interest rates are poised to rise.
:07:33. > :07:35.The whole point about the problem is that the country is facing is that
:07:36. > :07:40.there is a massive lack of confidence. People won't go out and
:07:41. > :07:43.spend, company bosses won't go out and hire and invest in new plants.
:07:44. > :07:48.Him saying interest rates will not rise until unemployment reaches 7%
:07:49. > :07:58.gave people confidence. In fact, that forward guidance has caused the
:07:59. > :08:01.increase... In car sales and everything else. I like Carney
:08:02. > :08:07.because he's already got excuses lined up. He says, we are wrong, but
:08:08. > :08:13.we'd rather be wrong in the right direction. I like the cut of his
:08:14. > :08:17.jib. He's a very political Bank of England governor. He didn't hesitate
:08:18. > :08:21.to come out against Ed Miliband's plan. He's going to Scotland next
:08:22. > :08:27.week. I'm really interested to hear what he has to say about Alex
:08:28. > :08:31.Salmond's currency plans. And I love the fact that George Osborne is
:08:32. > :08:35.letting it be known at Davos that he is relaxed about interest rates
:08:36. > :08:39.rising. I would expect some business groups and households to say, we are
:08:40. > :08:43.not very relaxed about it, we got loads of big debt still. I suspect
:08:44. > :08:49.he isn't relaxed about the interest rate rise. But then that's just me.
:08:50. > :08:54.Onto the Guardian. Road cameras. Privacy fear over 26 million images
:08:55. > :08:59.taken daily by road cameras. The Guardian has really been pushing the
:09:00. > :09:04.whole issue of secrecy and surveillance over the last few
:09:05. > :09:10.months. This story is very close to that. It's another data privacy
:09:11. > :09:13.story. I was wondering what Chris Huhne might feel reading this
:09:14. > :09:20.story, about whether we can now go back in time to what might have been
:09:21. > :09:25.caught on that road camera. That bloke who was caught driving the car
:09:26. > :09:31.with his hands behind his head at 60 mph. There will be great things on
:09:32. > :09:37.that database. Do I care that my car has been caught speeding? We've all
:09:38. > :09:43.been caught speeding at one time. The Guardian have spent a year
:09:44. > :09:47.campaigning against the invasion of privacy by the CIA and MI6. Who
:09:48. > :09:54.needs these guys, we've got speed cameras! They are storing 17 billion
:09:55. > :09:57.images. A number of these cameras has doubled on the roads. As a
:09:58. > :10:01.driver, I'm more concerned about that than the privacy implications.
:10:02. > :10:09.I thought non-Muslim had filming them anyway. A sort of placebo. --
:10:10. > :10:18.thought non-them had film in them anyway. Having done the failed Tiger
:10:19. > :10:22.Tiger bombing down there in London, they then went on the run. They were
:10:23. > :10:27.picked up, the number plate was picked up on these cameras. Too late
:10:28. > :10:34.to stop them going to Glasgow airport, but the cops were on to
:10:35. > :10:37.them. For some people, potentially the Guardian, they would argue that
:10:38. > :10:40.these things are on the road and are supposed to be catching speeding and
:10:41. > :10:45.traffic offences. If the images are being used for other things then
:10:46. > :10:51.that is an invasion of privacy. Conversely you could say it is
:10:52. > :10:56.looking after us all. Let's go on to the Independent. Treasury officials
:10:57. > :11:06.to warn public of risks of leaving the EU. What is this detailing? I
:11:07. > :11:12.quite like this story. The Government is getting civil servants
:11:13. > :11:15.to get ready briefing notes for the possible referendum on the EU,
:11:16. > :11:21.giving people the facts on the arguments against Britain leaving
:11:22. > :11:27.the EU. This outrages anti-union paean and Eurosceptic MPs, who say
:11:28. > :11:33.it is officials attempting to scare the public in favour of a yes vote.
:11:34. > :11:36.For me, it echoes of the early days of the current Scottish referendum
:11:37. > :11:39.debate, where you've got Whitehall and Westminster pumping up these
:11:40. > :11:43.papers on reasons for Scotland not to leave Britain, and the SNP
:11:44. > :11:49.government saying, you are just trying to scare people as Project
:11:50. > :11:53.fear. The UK Government is getting ready to enter that. The European
:11:54. > :11:57.debate is almost an empty room now. The only people in it are people
:11:58. > :12:06.talking about leaving. The people who are talking about staying...
:12:07. > :12:11.It's a slightly odd headline to say civil servants will play a critical
:12:12. > :12:14.role setting out the economic risks. Of course they should. They should
:12:15. > :12:19.be weighing up the pros and cons of a big change in public policy. What
:12:20. > :12:23.is interesting behind this story is in the last week or two, you've seen
:12:24. > :12:28.a lot more pro-European debate come out. More big companies come out,
:12:29. > :12:33.people like JPMorgan warn about the risks if British business pulled out
:12:34. > :12:38.of the EU. I think this is in some ways part of a wider debate. You are
:12:39. > :12:42.seeing more noise around the pro-European campaign. These guys
:12:43. > :12:47.are late to the party. We've had more than a year now, a UKIP
:12:48. > :12:50.bandwagon rolling, and anti-immigration bandwagon rolling
:12:51. > :12:57.will stop the narrative is all about... You've even got George
:12:58. > :13:01.Osborne throwing red meat to the Tories. The idea that putting some
:13:02. > :13:06.facts together is going to scare the public into a yes vote seems a
:13:07. > :13:16.rather surreal argument, when everyone is worried about UKIP.
:13:17. > :13:24.Living apart, apparently, maybe the secret to a marriage. I think it is
:13:25. > :13:33.Mia Farrow... Actually, they lived apart, very famously. That clearly
:13:34. > :13:37.didn't work for them. The Batman director. Do you know something we
:13:38. > :13:42.don't? These things are always hard to manage over a long time. This
:13:43. > :13:47.promises more than it delivers. It does say 700,000 people in Britain
:13:48. > :13:50.live happily apart. But it says a lot of them have a family in the
:13:51. > :13:53.country, the husband works in London. I don't think that
:13:54. > :13:58.necessarily means they are living apart. Someone is working incredibly
:13:59. > :14:03.hard in London during the week and probably can't afford a big house.
:14:04. > :14:07.It is a very Sunday kind of story on the front page of a daily. You get
:14:08. > :14:12.these statistics from which you can extrapolate a pattern or trend, and
:14:13. > :14:19.then you stick in a psychologist or expert to back-up the statistics,
:14:20. > :14:24.that you can be happy living apart, I call is living alone, and, bingo,
:14:25. > :14:29.there is a story. I don't know if it is a story for the front page, but I
:14:30. > :14:33.guess they wanted to lighten it up. We are going to go back to The
:14:34. > :14:39.Guardian. Actually, we are going onto the Daily Mirror. I have no
:14:40. > :14:42.idea what the story is. It is Justin Bieber, I am being told. It is also
:14:43. > :14:52.on the front of the Guardian. Busted, Justin Bieber. No shame,
:14:53. > :15:01.that is a different story. Busted, cuffed, drug bust Bieber.
:15:02. > :15:04.Bbc.co.uk/thebigquestions I think if you have 15 million followers on
:15:05. > :15:07.Twitter, the second most followed person in the world, people are
:15:08. > :15:12.going to be interested in this story and talking about it. For me, the
:15:13. > :15:18.question is if it is slightly and organised bit of criminality to make
:15:19. > :15:24.him change his brand image. We have seen that with Miley Cyrus, a Disney
:15:25. > :15:29.star gets reinvented as a controversial, edgy youngster. His
:15:30. > :15:35.father was apparently there all along, on the sidelines as he drove
:15:36. > :15:39.his Lamborghini. He could go to jail, though? We have not got there
:15:40. > :15:45.yet, but I think there will be a lot of debate about what is behind the
:15:46. > :15:48.story. He looks edgy, he looks like a jailbird, he is smiling in his
:15:49. > :15:54.mugshot. It may be an attempt to rebrand him. It may be that he is a
:15:55. > :15:59.teenager out of control. But a yellow Lamborghini? He is not cool
:16:00. > :16:04.in my book. You are saying this is part of a concerted campaign and
:16:05. > :16:10.this has happened in the past, he is getting to 19, so perhaps he is
:16:11. > :16:14.getting beyond those years. The grand old age of 19. He is growing
:16:15. > :16:21.out of the teenybopper situation. One would suggest that the majority
:16:22. > :16:24.of those that follow him on Twitter are of a certain age. But he is
:16:25. > :16:30.trying to appeal to a wider audience? He is worth about $150
:16:31. > :16:33.million. I think you can afford to have as many yellow Lamborghini is
:16:34. > :16:37.as he likes. What's interesting is that his reputation has started to
:16:38. > :16:42.diminish in terms his actual success as a pop star. Has it? Is not
:16:43. > :16:49.selling as many records? Not as many as he was a few years ago. He has
:16:50. > :16:53.?150 million to spend, so I think he has probably learned to drive his
:16:54. > :16:58.car fast. He rented the car, it wasn't even his. Talking of
:16:59. > :17:02.Caroline, we are going to be back in a hour's time for a look at the
:17:03. > :17:05.headlines behind the stories. At the top of the hour we are going to have
:17:06. > :17:11.the latest on the Government claiming that take-home pay has
:17:12. > :17:13.actually gone up, in real terms, for most people in Britain. Now time for
:17:14. > :17:28.Sportsday. Hello and welcome to Sportsday. I'm
:17:29. > :17:29.Mike Bushell, the headlines
