:00:00. > :00:00.impressive target of 304 runs. And we will show with the goals from

:00:00. > :00:00.England's women's victory in the Cyprus Cup. That is all in Sportsday

:00:00. > :00:20.in 15 minutes after the papers. Hello there and welcome to our

:00:21. > :00:24.lookahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With Wii

:00:25. > :00:34.broadcaster Daisy McAndrew and Owen Jones, author and columnist. -- with

:00:35. > :00:36.me are. Starting with the Telegraph, middle-class Britons have reaped the

:00:37. > :00:40.most benefits from immigration, but working class people have not. The

:00:41. > :00:43.Financial Times says the Bank of England is embroiled in the

:00:44. > :00:49.allegations over foreign exchange manipulation. A warning over sugar

:00:50. > :00:54.is the lead on the front page of the Daily Mail. And the Guardian leads

:00:55. > :00:58.on the Ukraine, saying Western attempts to force Moscow to back

:00:59. > :01:01.down are bailing. Finally, the Daily Mirror focuses on bankers' bonuses,

:01:02. > :01:08.which it says are sparking more fury. We will start with the

:01:09. > :01:12.Guardian, deadlock as Russia digs in over Crimea, US making unacceptable

:01:13. > :01:17.ultimatums as talks to resolve the crisis falter. William Hague has

:01:18. > :01:21.been speaking this evening, he said no-one has budged on their position.

:01:22. > :01:25.I would imagine deadlock is a word we will be seeing a lot more of in

:01:26. > :01:31.the next few days over the situation in Crimea. And the reason there is

:01:32. > :01:35.deadlock is Russia, for example, is denying they have invaded Crimea,

:01:36. > :01:39.they are claiming these are autonomous self defence squads who

:01:40. > :01:43.have sprung up and are defending Russian speaking people within

:01:44. > :01:48.Crimea. I think the problem is, though, is that it is complex.

:01:49. > :01:51.Russia have clearly invaded Ukraine, despite their claims, and are

:01:52. > :01:56.exploiting a crisis on the ground. But a democratically elected

:01:57. > :01:59.government which abused Ian Wright has been overthrown and replaced by

:02:00. > :02:10.a government which includes far right extremists. -- which abused

:02:11. > :02:18.human rights. There was an attempt to ban Russian as a official

:02:19. > :02:24.language, which caused real fear among the Russian minority. There

:02:25. > :02:29.has to be guarantees in any deal for the Russian minority, the right for

:02:30. > :02:34.Crimea to determine its own future. It was gifted, if you like, to

:02:35. > :02:37.Ukraine. That is not to say that most Russian speakers want to join

:02:38. > :02:41.Russia, that is not the case, but that has to be settled. And there

:02:42. > :02:44.have to be free elections in Ukraine to actually have a proper

:02:45. > :02:48.representative government. There were attempts to ban political

:02:49. > :02:52.parties in Ukraine following the uprising which took place. It is a

:02:53. > :02:56.very divided country, divided between West and East, and it is

:02:57. > :03:01.difficult to see not just how we can get peace between Russia and

:03:02. > :03:03.Ukraine, but peace within Ukraine. I agree that the situation is much

:03:04. > :03:07.more complex than the headlines would lead us to believe, it is not

:03:08. > :03:12.as simple as saying Russia is the bogeyman, the baddie, that were

:03:13. > :03:16.Ukrainians are being bullied by Russia. It is more complex. Although

:03:17. > :03:21.most of us might not understand that, all the people around those

:03:22. > :03:24.tables do understand. All the politicians understand that, John

:03:25. > :03:27.Kerry understands, David Cameron understands, and yet they are not

:03:28. > :03:31.getting anywhere with these negotiations, which must mean that

:03:32. > :03:36.somebody is not budging. And it does look like it is President Putin who

:03:37. > :03:40.is not budging on anything. Today we have just seen a rash of phone calls

:03:41. > :03:44.and photo opportunities, and you know, we have had Merkel and Putin

:03:45. > :03:48.and Obama and Cameron, they have all been at it, and we have had the

:03:49. > :03:54.meeting in Paris, and tonight we still seem to be no further forward.

:03:55. > :03:58.Yes, talking about the possibility that it is the Russians who are not

:03:59. > :04:03.budging, clearly the West is digging its heels in as well. There was an

:04:04. > :04:06.agreement back in February that would have potentially stopped all

:04:07. > :04:11.this happening, but we're not in a time machine, we cannot go back, but

:04:12. > :04:16.there was an agreement just before Yanukovych was kicked out of power

:04:17. > :04:19.or deposed, that would have changed the constitution and would have made

:04:20. > :04:24.elections happen before the end of May. If the opponents of Yanukovych

:04:25. > :04:29.had got their way, we may not be in this mess, and yet the West doesn't

:04:30. > :04:33.want to go back to that agreement - the Russians do. Yes, but we can

:04:34. > :04:37.understand why they do, but of course everything has changed since

:04:38. > :04:41.then, and we are all in agreement that the previous Ukrainian

:04:42. > :04:45.government was no great shakes, it was violating human rights. So

:04:46. > :04:48.everything has changed, but where we go from here, apart from the sabre

:04:49. > :04:54.rattling and that their baiting is difficult to see. It is an awkward

:04:55. > :04:59.situation in the sense that, if you like, Russia have got themselves in

:05:00. > :05:02.a position where, in terms of their rhetoric, they are saying, we are

:05:03. > :05:06.trying to defend an elected government that was overthrown by

:05:07. > :05:09.force, whilst the West are supporting it. An elected government

:05:10. > :05:15.that seemed to be murdering its own people. Democracy does, you know, if

:05:16. > :05:19.you are violating your own citizens, that is something

:05:20. > :05:23.different, it is undemocratic. I agree, there was clearly terrible

:05:24. > :05:27.repression which took place at attacks on human rights, but police

:05:28. > :05:31.officers were violently killed as well. This was not a peaceful

:05:32. > :05:36.uprising, there was violence on both sides, and the West has got itself

:05:37. > :05:41.in an order situation where it has supported a democratically elected

:05:42. > :05:45.government, and it did the same in Egypt as well. From the perspective

:05:46. > :05:49.of Russia, they would argue, you have violated international in

:05:50. > :05:54.Iraq, Israel violates international law in Palestine, Saudi Arabia

:05:55. > :05:57.invaded Bahrain. If we are going to talk about international being

:05:58. > :06:01.consistently upheld, those issues have to be addressed, because at the

:06:02. > :06:07.moment it seems international law is used to attack your opponent when it

:06:08. > :06:11.is inconvenient for you. It is the ultimate political cliche, but two

:06:12. > :06:14.wrongs don't make a right. You cannot start and picking the last

:06:15. > :06:19.ten years of international relations. We need to address the

:06:20. > :06:23.issue, because this is symptomatic of the fact that the international

:06:24. > :06:26.has broken down, international is not consistently upheld, and we will

:06:27. > :06:31.get more crises unless it is addressed. This is why this is going

:06:32. > :06:39.to take a long time to sort out, folks! We will sort out the world in

:06:40. > :06:44.the paper review! Let's go on to the Daily Telegraph, Daisy, middle-class

:06:45. > :06:50.people are being blamed for migration, apparently. This is a

:06:51. > :06:53.speech that James Brokenshire, the new Conservative immigration

:06:54. > :06:58.minister, will be making tomorrow or this week, and clearly he is going

:06:59. > :07:05.to be coming down, as the Tory party tends to do, had on immigration, but

:07:06. > :07:11.he is particularly going to side himself with working-class Brits,

:07:12. > :07:16.working-class voters, you could fill in the dots, and say that one of the

:07:17. > :07:20.problems with immigration is that the middle classes benefit from

:07:21. > :07:25.immigration, both by employing cheap labour, either in their house, as we

:07:26. > :07:27.might remember his predecessor did, and that is the reason why his

:07:28. > :07:31.predecessor was kicked out of office, for illegally employing an

:07:32. > :07:37.immigrant who did not have the right to work. But apparently the middle

:07:38. > :07:41.class are demanding cheaper labour, they are not just... Their action is

:07:42. > :07:45.setting the market rate, and as a result only some were Romanian or

:07:46. > :07:50.whatever, that is the contention, who was willing to work for it. As

:07:51. > :07:54.with so many political stories, this is much more to do with the way

:07:55. > :07:58.people feel than the reality. I think what the message really is is

:07:59. > :08:03.that working-class people or people on a lower income feel more

:08:04. > :08:06.threatened by immigrants than the middle classes, and not only do they

:08:07. > :08:09.feel more threatened because these people are taking their jobs, but

:08:10. > :08:12.they look at the middle classes and see they are benefiting, and that is

:08:13. > :08:17.why they are pro-immigration. Personally, I don't believe a word

:08:18. > :08:22.of it, and I think it is blatant electioneering. UKIP could have

:08:23. > :08:27.written that. I do not like the phraseology, blamed for migration,

:08:28. > :08:31.like blamed for crime. There are concerns about immigration, but most

:08:32. > :08:34.people would say, actually, it has enriched our society, there have

:08:35. > :08:40.been many positives that we all take for granted. And count opposing

:08:41. > :08:43.middle class and working class, a lot of working-class people are

:08:44. > :08:47.immigrants or former immigrants, those cleaning the toilets of Tory

:08:48. > :08:52.ministers, in that case illegally so. The fact is, firstly, we never

:08:53. > :08:55.hear the positives like the fact that our NHS is propped up by

:08:56. > :09:01.immigrants nurses and doctors, and a lot of social problems in society,

:09:02. > :09:04.often wind up scapegoating immigrants. So for example, the

:09:05. > :09:08.failure of successive governments to build another housing to meet

:09:09. > :09:11.needs, people go, not enough housing, why is it going to

:09:12. > :09:16.immigrants? It is the same with wages, wages have been falling

:09:17. > :09:21.because of minimum wage being allowed to fall in real terms, weak

:09:22. > :09:23.unions, globalisation, and immigrants get scapegoated for it.

:09:24. > :09:31.It is quite convenient for politicians of all stripes to say,

:09:32. > :09:36.not us, these problems are not our fault. But peoples concerns are very

:09:37. > :09:40.real, and they do feel this, and rightly or only in many people's

:09:41. > :09:45.opinion, there is a sense that there are too many people coming. That is

:09:46. > :09:50.exactly the point, they do feel it, and although it is an helpful for us

:09:51. > :09:56.to be agreeing... It is not an helpful! People feel threatened

:09:57. > :10:00.because politicians and certain sections of the media are constantly

:10:01. > :10:05.telling them things that neither of us believe are true. Tomorrow he

:10:06. > :10:09.will be saying that they push house prices up and push wages down -

:10:10. > :10:15.they, immigrants. It is a load of rubbish! The evidence we have is

:10:16. > :10:19.that a report that has been concealed and not released. It is

:10:20. > :10:25.just being fine tuned, Daisy, please! They get more money in taxes

:10:26. > :10:28.from immigrants than they pay out in benefits. These headlines do not

:10:29. > :10:32.help, they are relentlessly negative, they only include extreme

:10:33. > :10:40.examples which are negative to make people's blood boil. The Telegraph

:10:41. > :10:46.says British women have been crowned the Queens of leisure. 27 minutes a

:10:47. > :10:52.day spent watching telly. At least! Repaint our nails and read magazines

:10:53. > :10:58.and do nothing all day. It says so in the Telegraph. How long do those

:10:59. > :11:03.nails take? If you could see how chips they are, you would realise! I

:11:04. > :11:09.spend hours on mine. This is funnily enough a good news story. The OECD

:11:10. > :11:15.is comparing countries. We should be proud of the fact that our women

:11:16. > :11:19.seem to have so much leisure time. I must say, British women are beaten

:11:20. > :11:27.by British men, who have even more. Of course. This report also says, in

:11:28. > :11:31.a possible blow to national pride, that no matter how they might think

:11:32. > :11:34.of themselves as new men, British men have been overtaken by their

:11:35. > :11:38.counterparts in France in terms of pulling their weight around the

:11:39. > :11:42.house. So even Frenchmen are better than us? They do more hoovering.

:11:43. > :11:47.Then something is clearly going wrong. I am surprised at this,

:11:48. > :11:52.because we do work some of the longest hours in Europe in this

:11:53. > :11:58.country. But not as productive as we should be. And we do have longer

:11:59. > :12:02.holidays. No, we have less bank holidays than a lot of other

:12:03. > :12:08.countries. But we have longer weeks off work from our jobs. We do more

:12:09. > :12:15.unpaid overtime than a lot of other countries. That is worth aliens to

:12:16. > :12:22.employers. Voices are saying yes, we do, in my earpiece. Dickensian ways

:12:23. > :12:30.at the BBC! Exactly. We will not go into that any further. 106 minutes

:12:31. > :12:37.watching TV? Who has time for that 's women! Don't you multitask

:12:38. > :12:44.mother? You watch TV while doing your e-mails. Facebook stalking, is

:12:45. > :12:49.that work or leisure? Because we multitask, we save up that extra

:12:50. > :12:54.free time. Let's quickly go to the Daily Mail. Cut your sugar intake by

:12:55. > :12:58.half. Children should not be having fizzy drinks. My biggest achievement

:12:59. > :13:03.last year was halving the amount of sugar I have in my tea, so I am

:13:04. > :13:09.ahead of the curve. This is fascinating. They are arguing that

:13:10. > :13:14.all this idea that fat is the problem and that you should stick to

:13:15. > :13:19.a low-fat diet, when actually, obesity has been going up. So they

:13:20. > :13:23.have gone, maybe that is not why we have this problem. So they are

:13:24. > :13:29.suggesting that sugar intake is the issue. It is surprising because, I

:13:30. > :13:34.am quoting statistics from the Daily Mail, wow! Well, that is fair

:13:35. > :13:40.enough, because it is the paper we are talking about. They say no more

:13:41. > :13:47.than 60 spoons for a child. We think one banana has seven teaspoons of

:13:48. > :13:51.sugar in it -- no more than six teaspoons for a child. If you are

:13:52. > :13:55.child, you have your daily recommended guidelines. This is a

:13:56. > :14:00.serious issue, because sugars are often completely disguised. Daisy,

:14:01. > :14:08.are you working on this with your kids? All the time. If you look

:14:09. > :14:11.further into this report, it is about obesity and health issues, but

:14:12. > :14:16.they say the number-1 health issue is into care. How long have we been

:14:17. > :14:21.saying, don't have so many sweets or your teeth will fall out to our

:14:22. > :14:25.children? Distil the case, do -- dental care is a real problem . But

:14:26. > :14:31.how exhausted as everybody at the moment? This morning, we were being

:14:32. > :14:34.told you must not do the high protein diets because of this

:14:35. > :14:40.Californian report that says you will get cancer. Now we are told

:14:41. > :14:45.that the low-fat diet is bad for you. Now it is sugar, so it is

:14:46. > :14:52.exhausting. What are you supposed to actually eat? It is a simple rule,

:14:53. > :14:58.variety and moderation. And on that Michelle... It is a kind of Jerry

:14:59. > :15:03.Springer and to the programme. Wise words. You will both be back in an

:15:04. > :15:08.hour to look at more of the stories behind the headlines. Stay with us

:15:09. > :15:11.on BBC News, because at 11 o'clock, we will have the latest on the

:15:12. > :15:14.diplomatic efforts to resolve the crisis in Ukraine and get a report

:15:15. > :15:29.from our world affairs editor John Simpson, who is in Sevastopol in

:15:30. > :15:32.Crimea. Now, time for Sportsday. Hello and welcome to Sportsday. I'm

:15:33. > :15:35.Katie Gornall. Coming up: England scrape through their final World Cup

:15:36. > :15:42.audition, as Daniel Sturridge earns them a narrow win over Denmark.

:15:43. > :15:43.Bale proves too hot to handle
