Transcendence, is it as awful as American audiences seem to think? | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
All of that as well as the other top releases in the Film Review. | :00:00. | :00:20. | |
Welcome to our look ahead at what the papers will be bringing us | :00:21. | :00:29. | |
tomorrow. Thank you for joining us. First, let's have a look at the | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
headlines. The Observer has a warning that poor school meals at | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
academies and free schools could be fuelling an obesity epidemic. The | :00:43. | :00:47. | |
Independent on Sunday has a cartoon and reports of Nigel Farage | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
surviving a week of difficult headlines apparently unharmed. The | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
Sunday Times also has a story about UKIP ahead of key European | :00:58. | :01:04. | |
elections. A new twist in the so`called Plebgate scandal, | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
according to the headline in the Mail on Sunday. The Sunday Telegraph | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
has the tragic deaths of five richest military personnel after | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
that helicopter crash in southern Afghanistan. `` five British | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
military personnel. The Sunday Express has a potential breakthrough | :01:23. | :01:31. | |
in the Madeline McCann case. We should begin with this cartoon | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
image of Nigel Farage on the front page of the Independent on Sunday. | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
Interesting questions being posed by the paper. Will nothing think Nigel | :01:42. | :01:53. | |
Farage? Pressure over jobs for his relatives has not put off voters. | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
And it says that Ed Miliband is on the back foot as UKIP target | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
northern England. We will be looking at some of the latest opinion poll | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
has commissioned by the Sunday Times later, but let's talk about this | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
first. What will bring him down if anything? He is riding a wave of | :02:12. | :02:20. | |
popularity. I don't think anyone should have to apologise for having | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
a German wife, by the way. What is important is that Ed Miliband is on | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
the back foot as UKIP target northern England. This is a concern | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
for Labour. UKIP has been polling very well in some of their heartland | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
seats including around Manchester. UKIP has a very strong appeal to | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
what one might call older, traditional, Northern, working`class | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
Labour voters. In the 1970s, Labour was a Eurosceptic party. It promised | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
a referendum on the issue in the 1970s. Those voters have seen the | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
Labour Party moved to becoming a European party under Tony Blair and | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
disconnected from some of the issues in those constituencies. It is very | :03:06. | :03:14. | |
much the older voter caught up in the Nigel Farage appeal. It also has | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
something to do with how he put his message across. What about you, | :03:20. | :03:27. | |
Matthew? There is no doubt that he has an aspect of Teflon to his | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
image. He has had a difficult week and yet according to the Sunday | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
Times, they have become the most popular party in terms of the | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
European elections. This is an opinion poll commissioned by the | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
Sunday Times. Exactly. But this will invite more scrutiny both on Nigel | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
Farage and on his party. I think some of these stories about | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
candidates holding racist views, things like this will eventually | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
begin to tarnish the appeal of UKIP even among older voters. And I also | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
think there will be more scrutiny on policy. We'll know that they want to | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
withdraw from the EU, we all know their opinion on immigration. But if | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
they want to be a credible party, they have to have policies on | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
education, health and taxation. And it seems to be a ramshackle set of | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
policies. The Guardian front Page said exactly that earlier in the | :04:24. | :04:31. | |
week. And yet the main parties are riled by UKIP. They may come under | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
more scrutiny but it does not seem to be sticking. This is something | :04:36. | :04:41. | |
that happens Cuba relatively. It's not just one of stories that change | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
public opinion. `` this is something that happens she militantly. The | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
more people that come out after being revealed to be racist the more | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
that exposes their policies to internal contradictions. These | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
European elections don't matter that much. How many of us know our | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
European Member of Parliament? Not many. I do. We have eight MPs | :05:04. | :05:13. | |
representing our region. Thank you. I think the concern for the main | :05:14. | :05:18. | |
parties is that these are all plays from the traditional book. Paint | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
them as racist, find some person who has said some racist things and you | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
have a news story. One of the concerns for the main parties is | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
that this is not working with this new type of politics and every time | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
they try to attack Nigel Farage through these traditional means... | :05:40. | :05:47. | |
Exactly. And that is, as it were, the marketing message that the | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
mainstream political parties have to learn from Nigel Farage. When he | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
answers questions, he does not come with the normal, formulaic, pre` | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
staged answers that have been given to him by spin is. He seems to | :06:00. | :06:07. | |
answer in the way that someone would answer if you asked them a question | :06:08. | :06:10. | |
at a local pub. Look at the other politicians. Boris Johnson, Tony | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
Banks, Ken Livingstone. Very different political policies but the | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
same kind of cut through, the same kind of what people would describe | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
as honesty. That has a certain amount of political resonance. We | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
have to move on. Sticking to the front page of the Sunday Times, | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
there is another story here. Paedophiles to be treated as | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
terrorists. In the Queens speech, new legislation will be introduced | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
which will mean exactly that. Sexual predators who download manuals on | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
how to groom their victims will face the same sections as terrorists who | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
download guide to making, saying it closes a loophole in the law. This | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
does not sound like a massive issue. This is the top line from the | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
government's threadbare when speech, which will happen in June | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
but is supposed to happen in May. This is on the Parliament has very | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
little to do. Everything in the coalition agreement they could have | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
got through has already got through. Anything that is left, it's very | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
difficult for them to come to an agreement on what to do. They got | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
the big ticket items done first because they were worried the | :07:29. | :07:30. | |
coalition would fall apart, that is the theory. One reason why the | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
Liberal Democrats asked to fix the parliamentary term was that they | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
were concerned that David Cameron would pull out the rug from | :07:42. | :07:44. | |
underneath them. One of the unintended consequences from that is | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
we have a parliament that should have ended around now, so there is | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
little left for them to do. Other things that will be included in the | :07:55. | :07:59. | |
speech. A serious crime Bill modelled on America's anti` Mafia | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
laws. I'm not sure what that means. A crackdown on zero hours contracts | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
and an amendment to trespassing laws that will allow shale gas companies | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
to do fracking on private land. It is certainly pretty thin will stop | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
the headline grabbing policy is on zero hours contracts, those | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
exclusivity clauses that allow companies to bind workers to zero | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
hour deals and not go elsewhere. However, I do not think that the | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
Queens speech is going to be the definitive issue in the next | :08:42. | :08:46. | |
election. If it had been full of philosophically coherent policies, | :08:47. | :08:48. | |
it would make no difference whatsoever to the opinion polls. The | :08:49. | :08:55. | |
issue is going to be the economy. The economy is growing, unemployment | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
is falling and employment is rising. Growth is about 3%. And crucially, | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
living standards are going up. The question is, how will Labour | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
responded to that? I don't think in political terms this is going to be | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
politically important. Will ethics play a part as well? Essex? I | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
thought we were talking about football. The front page of the | :09:22. | :09:27. | |
Sunday Telegraph is a sorry about England becoming a post` Christian | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
nation, according to the former Archbishop of Canterbury. However, | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
there is an opinion poll done by the Sunday Telegraph, which seems to | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
refute that, in which more than half of people regard Britain as a | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
Christian country. First, it's Britain and not England. That is | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
different. In northern England and Northern Ireland, church attendance | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
is higher stop its interesting we have the former Archbishop of | :09:56. | :09:58. | |
Canterbury being so pessimistic about his own faith. He has left | :09:59. | :10:04. | |
now. Does he think it has all gone to pot now that he has gone? Even | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
though the polls slightly contradicted the assertion that he | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
makes, broadly speaking, the general tend is away from organised and | :10:13. | :10:15. | |
disorganised religion and towards secularism. Do you think Muslim | :10:16. | :10:21. | |
populations would agree with you on that? I think if you look at this in | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
20 years, Muslim people born to Muslim parents in this country will | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
have often turned away from Islam and towards the killer is. And this | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
is because precise effect of science. The explanations that | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
theologians `` and towards secularism. And this is because of | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
the effect of science. The explanations that theologians have | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
given has given way to the scientific evidence. And this will | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
also apply to second and third generation immigrants in this | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
country. I believe this is a positive trend. I believe he is | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
right to identify it. But I also believe the Church has done good | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
things as well and I don't have a problem with Christians or | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
Christianity. How does this square with David Cameron's comments about | :11:16. | :11:20. | |
Britain being more evangelical? I think he was making a mistake to use | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
that word. To be fair, he was actually spot on to describe his | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
face as classic FM in the Chilterns in that it comes and goes. England | :11:32. | :11:39. | |
has never really been... It's more like a social club than a religion. | :11:40. | :11:44. | |
But the point is that David Cameron was trying to reach a part of the | :11:45. | :11:48. | |
Tory heartland that had become disenchanted with him over same`sex | :11:49. | :11:51. | |
marriage and that was why he was talking about how he has in the | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
words of Alastair Campbell found God. Football. Almost like religion. | :11:56. | :12:07. | |
The Express has an exclusive saying that Louis van Gaal will get the | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
Manchester United job. What did he say to that team to get them to win, | :12:11. | :12:18. | |
Ryan Giggs? It was an immensely impressive victory for Manchester | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
United after a rather gloomy season that saw the end of David Moyes's | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
equally gloomy tenure as manager. Ryan Giggs, one of their iconic | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
players, has taken over for the last few games of the season and it is a | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
very good start but as you have rightly pointed out, this article | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
says that Louis van Gaal, the 62`year`old Dutchman currently with | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
the Holland national team, has agreed to take over. He is very | :12:48. | :12:54. | |
tried and tested and has a strong reputation in global football. And | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
the supporters will be pleased that a nine has now been drawn under what | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
has been a rather poor and distributable sacking, where it | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
leaked out before David Moyes had been told about it. Thank you. | :13:07. | :13:15. | |
That's it from the papers for this evening. Thank you for joining us. | :13:16. | :13:29. | |
