been taking on Manchester City. Tennis and sneak out all coming out

in 15 minutes. `` snooker. Welcome to our look at what the

papers will bring us tomorrow. Bonnie Greer and the Deputy

political editor at the times. A picture of holy week celebrations in

Spain, dominating the Telegraph front page. Foreign doctors might

lack the necessary skills to work on the NHS. The Queen with her Easter

bouquet features on the Daily Express. The Daily Mail reports on

the cost of a legal battle involving an NHS cardiologist who was sacked

after whistleblowing. The front page of the mirror is dedicated to a

story about a baby who was reinfected by meningitis from the

family cat. `` infected. The skill levels of doctors trained outside

the EU in the times. The independent front page has a tribute to Gabriel

Garcia Marquez. He died at aged 87. The Guardian reports on the

acquisition of the Labour Party over Obama 's adviser, table Arsenal

roared, for the UK election battle. That's where we start. Miliband

steps up his right hand man for election. Will Miliband say, yes we

can? It is a shot in the arm for Ed Miliband. They have been looking for

good news. Their economic strategy came under pressure. This is as good

news as you could get. David Axelrod was the campaign face of the Obama

campaign. He was one of two figureheads who took Obama from the

kitchen table to the White House. The fact he is joining team Miliband

is impressive. We have a Chicago streetfighter who will faceoff and

Australian strategist. It is down and dirty. All three parties have

foreign election strategists. It is good news. I wonder how many days

between now and the election, David Axelrod will actually be inside the

Labour HQ. He is predominantly an America based. What will he do? His

role in the last Obama campaign was to focus on Obama's opponent and

ensure people understood how privileged, wealthy and not one of

us he was as an opponent. You will see a lot of that in the way he

steers the Labour campaign. Ronnie, you are from southside Chicago and

you know this guy. Absolutely. What will he bring to the campaign? ``

Bonnie. Trust me, Axe wouldn't get involved unless he could win this.

He wouldn't put his name to this if he didn't know. To add to what Sam

said, what he saw in Obama was what I call, the edge. He saw it. He saw

a shift in the Democratic party. My generation, the baby boomers, were

running the party. We assumed it would be Hillary Clinton in the

bag. What's the deal? Suddenly, this guy from Illinois, with a weird last

name, who Axe helped to get here from Illinois, said no, there is a

change. What he focuses on, not only what he did against Mitt Romney is,

he is a genius at understanding the ethos of the people. He understands

in the US, for instance, America is about freedom, our quality,

opportunity, that's it. Every American dream is about it. If you

don't deliver that, then you are out. What he sees here, my

perception of Britain, being here so many years, is that the British

perceive themselves as fair. At the end of the day, most British people

want fairness. Everyone interprets that how they want, but it is about

being fair, just fair. I would assume, maybe Axelrod will look at

that very deeply. He is talking about inequality. He is going to be

talking about that so that is important. Sam, why does it take a

bunch of foreigners to tell us how we are supposed to, I don't know,

react, feel, deal with life at the moment? As with business hiring

outside consultants, it helps. Before Axelrod's arrival, team

Miliband have been looking at the way Obama won the second of the two

residential races. In fact, Obama was behind on economic competence

and behind on who was trusted to manage growth in relation to

business. What he was in front on was understanding people 's pain,

understanding the squeeze, understanding cost of living issues.

The temp late has been laid on top of the Labour campaign. `` temp

late. We have Axelrod like we are just adding to the man now. The

Tories picked up Jim Messina who also worked for President Obama.

There is no doubt that Axelrod is the senior. That moustache is known

in America. And he has the thing I want `` and he has got it back,

because he took it off. He will shake this campaign. He knows

something has shifted. That is what he discovered in Obama. That is what

will happen here. Very interesting. Bonnie, the Times, Geneva deal pulls

Ukraine back from the brink. Is it all over now? It depends on how far

Putin wants to go, what he wants to accomplish. What he says he wants to

do, what he wants to do, are of course two different things. He has

had to put himself on the frontline of politics. He has gone on record,

ago, saying the collapse of the Soviet Union was the worst thing

that ever happened. V Putin owes a of politics in Europe and in

relation to the U S is how this man is making his mark `` the

Putinisation. It is appalling that we don't have a dialogue about his

central premise, which is that he has the right to invade a sovereign

country to aid its language speakers. This, frankly, was one of

Hitler's arguments. It's much more complicated than that. That is one

of Hitler's statements, that German speakers in that part of Poland...

(CROSSTALK) he said today it was his right to go in there if Russian

speakers are being threatened. The important thing about the deal today

is to look at what sides have got out of it. It has a below the

surface mini break up of national structure of Ukraine, whereas, so

the west's negotiating card in all of this is relatively weak `` West.

We have seen businesses in Europe, like BP, lobbying to ensure that

sanctions against Russia weren't dramatic. If you impose all our

sanctions you won't have anyone writing cheques from Moscow to

London. They would. We aren't in a position of desperate strength. You

talk about Hitler, you talk about interrogating Putin's main aim, I

don't think that is realistic at that point when we have little cards

on our favour. Obama said that military options were off the table.

He has to say that. Europe is an plain`ball. We saw today that there

aren't many cards in our favour `` playing ball. You need an

unattractive deescalation. You are saying that the West, need to back

down? And saying the West didn't get a lot out of today and Putin can be

satisfied there is no attempt to take any of this back. Nothing has

put him back in his box and he has stored sanctions and seen a little

bit more of a breakup of Ukraine. There are issues on the table. We

can talk about the real politic. You are talking about that. It is

rational. There is something deeper that we are not discussing. That

is, the idea of the West. What does it do? If the EU cannot in spite of

the fact that Gazprom pumps the gas into Europe, if the EU cannot stay

with the principles of Europe, if the UN cannot do that, if the US

cannot do that, that is the problem. We know the money that is beneath

this. Someone needs to talk about this issue of sovereign nations

being invaded by another nation. You mention the word is realpolitik and

the matter is, if the Germans are getting their gas from Russia, what

will you do? My point is, let's talk about it. Not as though there is

anything else to talk about. I thought they were talking about it.

I thought they would be a move because of the fracking revolution

in America to ship more of that stuff, their gas, over two, and try

and change the geopolitical situation. Try to shift the

dynamic. A third can be moved by 2020. It's not overnight. That's

part of the discussion I'm saying it's not the only question. We are

acting as though it is. There is an idea of the West. There is an idea

about the US. What the President should be doing, which he is in an

ish way, is to state the idea. You know what the response to that is?

Libya, Syria, Iraq. You guys do it, we will do it. We need to talk about

it. You are absolutely right. A discussion for both sides,

potentially. Interesting story. Your paper, the Times, has done it,

safety fears over doctors who trained outside the EU, you have on

the front page. Whereas, the Telegraph says foreign doctors, just

generally, foreign doctors lack skills for the NHS. The suggestion

is that following a study from University College London that

foreign doctors are allowed to work in the NHS here aren't given the

same stringent testing that British doctors need to reach before

practising. It's an academic study published in the British medical

Journal, one of the most well`regarded medical journals.

There is huge political pressure to ensure there are no gaps in the NHS

`` British Medical Journal. What do we do? We go outside. People have

tactical and emotional responses to that. It makes some uncomfortable

and some nervous. Others treat it in a perfectly grown`up manner. Here,

we seem to have a study which suggests that there are issues

around the number of doctors that go to disciplinary hearings from

overseas. It basically says foreign doctors wouldn't pass the English

exam, which I think would concern a lot of people. Is that it, language?

The richest test? Lee the English exam. From the extracts, I'm not

clear what they would be. Is this according to the Times? If you are a

foreign doctor, a French or Spanish or German doctor, it's all OK? The

Times is right and the Telegraph is wrong, obviously. In the Times, and

the Times says? I'm trying to get the motivation of the story. We have

to duty newspapers suggesting two very different things. That is my

point. The Telegraph is just foreign doctors, anyone perhaps whose

English `` who is not English. Once you say outside the EU, you think

about African doctors and so on, and race starts coming in. The point is,

the point we make clear in our story, the study is about the exam

sat by doctors who come from outside the EU, and they are comparing that

exam for people coming from outside the EU with the domestic exam. The

Times is accurate in this. So the test for a French doctor is the same

for it is in the UK. I'm not sure. for it is in the UK. I'm not sure.

That is crucial. That is important. The doctor who got into trouble a

few years ago was a German speaker. The question is, what are they

talking about? Is it language? Why are you so special? What happens in

the EU which is huge and French doctors are not trained to the same

as reduced doctors. No foreign doctor would be. What are they

talking about? Also, if it is clear, from greater appearances

before the General medical Council because problems foreign doctors

have issues, why is this study coming out now? That was my other

question. We have discussed this lot. It has all gone over my head

completely story. I think it is time to talk about things about which we

know, not nothing. Onto the Independent and Bonnie, Gabriel

Garcia Marquez, a literary giant, dies at 87, after being sick for a

long time. Nobel laureate. People compare him to 70s. `` Cervantes. He

invented magic realism, which has been bastardised. Can I say that?

You can say what you like. Tony will be all right about that. When magic

realism, which he brought into the world, it was about subtlety and

leaving things out. This man to the Spanish`language is the same thing

that Shakespeare is to ours, he invented Spanish again. He was our

mighty intellect. He is what the French call, on the left. He is

against US foreign policy. He wasn't afraid to say you can be an artist

and you can be engaged. He was a genius and he won the Nobel Prize

for literature, our IP. We ended there. Thank you. `` RIP. Stay with

us on BBC News. At the top of the Allah, we have more of the talks in

Geneva aimed at reducing the crisis in eastern Ukraine. `` hour. Now, it

is time for Sportsday. Hello, welcome to
