:00:00. > :00:00.will have more on the sanctions basing Manchester City for failing

:00:00. > :00:00.to meet UEFA 's financial fair play rules, that is coming up in about 15

:00:00. > :00:20.minutes. Hello, and welcome to our look ahead

:00:21. > :00:22.to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are Emily

:00:23. > :00:28.Ashton, Whitehall correspondent for The Sun, and journalist Eva Simpson.

:00:29. > :00:32.Pretty much all of the front pages are in now, we will start with the

:00:33. > :00:35.tragic death of the teacher Anne Maguire, that is the front page of

:00:36. > :00:41.the Independent. She was stabbed to death in front of pupils in a school

:00:42. > :00:47.in Leeds. That story is on the front page of Tomorrow's front pages.

:00:48. > :01:05.The Financial Times is going with the big Pharma takeover bid made by

:01:06. > :01:08.Pfizer for UK firm Astra`Zeneca. The Daily Telegraph is another paper

:01:09. > :01:10.leading with the killing of Leeds teacher, Anne Maguire. The paper

:01:11. > :01:12.says she was seen as the 'figurehead' of Corpus Christi

:01:13. > :01:16.Catholic College. The Daily Express also leads with the teacher's death,

:01:17. > :01:23.reporting that Mrs Maguire was in her final term before taking

:01:24. > :01:26.retirement. The Guardian claims that a cross`party campaign to discredit

:01:27. > :01:29.UKIP as "racists" is to be launched this week. The death of teacher Anne

:01:30. > :01:32.Maguire leads the Daily Mail, the paper says she was a dedicated

:01:33. > :01:35.teacher. And the Mirror's front page also focusses on that shocking

:01:36. > :01:43.story, reporting one pupil as saying Mrs Maguire was a "lovely teacher".

:01:44. > :01:47.It is clear, Emily, from the tribute is pouring in for Anne Maguire, who

:01:48. > :01:52.died up in Leeds, that she was well loved, and well liked, apparently

:01:53. > :02:00.the first murder of a teacher it on a school promises `` premises since

:02:01. > :02:06.Dunblane. `` tributes. The first murder in a classroom. She had been

:02:07. > :02:09.working at the school for 40 years, for her entire teaching career.

:02:10. > :02:14.There were a lot of peoples who respected her. You could tell this,

:02:15. > :02:18.people were travelling across Britain this afternoon to pay

:02:19. > :02:23.tributes to her, to lay some flowers for her. Pupils gathered at this

:02:24. > :02:27.church, earlier tonight, hundreds of pupils. Former students, and their

:02:28. > :02:31.parents, wanted to pay tribute to her. It is so shocking that this can

:02:32. > :02:38.happen in a classroom in front of other pupils. It does not bear

:02:39. > :02:41.thinking about. We are more used to hearing about teachers being

:02:42. > :02:45.killed, students being murdered, in America. This is the thing that we

:02:46. > :02:48.hear about in the news that happens in the United States, for summing

:02:49. > :02:56.like this to happen in Britain is unheard of. It is unprecedented.

:02:57. > :03:01.What is more tragic was that she was in her final term. She was about to

:03:02. > :03:05.retire this summer. She spent all of her career and her life working at

:03:06. > :03:12.the school. She was loved by pupils, and teachers, and by their parents.

:03:13. > :03:18.She was finally about to say goodbye. And then this awful thing

:03:19. > :03:20.happens. You hear of pupils potentially taking weapons into

:03:21. > :03:26.schools, in inner`city schools, knives, and that kind of thing.

:03:27. > :03:30.There has always been the suggestion that it is gang`related, and somehow

:03:31. > :03:39.tied up with trying to get one upon another gang, or another pupil in

:03:40. > :03:45.the same school. This was seen to be what is coming out, completely out

:03:46. > :03:51.of the blue from a pupil that apparently was alleged to have been

:03:52. > :03:54.doing very well. This is, according to reports, this 15`year`old pupil

:03:55. > :03:56.has been arrested and not yet charged, but he was from a

:03:57. > :04:01.middle`class family and doing well in his exams, perhaps a bit of a

:04:02. > :04:09.loner in the school, but we do not know the full truth of that yet.

:04:10. > :04:16.This was an attack by one pupil, this was not like the head teacher

:04:17. > :04:21.who was killed outside of school gates in 1995 who was breaking up an

:04:22. > :04:26.attack between pupils, was stabbed in the process. This was an attack

:04:27. > :04:35.launched against teacher and buy one pupil. It is profoundly shocking. ``

:04:36. > :04:39.against a teacher by one pupil. We will wait for the police

:04:40. > :04:53.investigation on this. Let's go to the sun. Max Clifford is guilty of

:04:54. > :04:57.eight sex attacks. `` The Sun. Those with contracts with him, they are

:04:58. > :05:02.moving away from him. Simon Cowell is one of them. This is a story

:05:03. > :05:10.dominating the papers, The Sun has an excuse of line, `` exclusive

:05:11. > :05:14.line. Simon Cowell is the first person to fire him in the wake of

:05:15. > :05:23.these guilty verdicts. It remains to be seen who else will do the same,

:05:24. > :05:27.and follow suit. It is the sort of risky thing to do. If you hire Max

:05:28. > :05:31.Clifford as your publicist, he knows where all the skeletons are buried,

:05:32. > :05:38.and all of your guilty secrets. Is it a wise thing to do? So soon?

:05:39. > :05:43.Nonetheless, this is the action Simon Cowell has taken. I don't

:05:44. > :05:48.think he has a choice after this. It will be the first in a long list of

:05:49. > :05:55.clients to distance themselves from Max Clifford. It is interesting,

:05:56. > :06:04.this is your newspaper, Emily, and either, you as well, you are an

:06:05. > :06:08.entertainment reporter `` Eva. It is difficult for the red tops, they

:06:09. > :06:12.have had close dealings with him over the years. He had a hotline to

:06:13. > :06:16.most tabloid editors. He was the king of kiss and tell. If someone

:06:17. > :06:20.had a story, the first person they would call was Max Clifford, and

:06:21. > :06:25.then he would call the tabloid editors. He had a strong and close

:06:26. > :06:32.relationship with them going back decades. The interesting thing for

:06:33. > :06:35.me with this story is that I think most of the general public are aware

:06:36. > :06:46.of Max Clifford as the king of kiss and tell. I do not know how well it

:06:47. > :06:54.resonates with them. He is a public figure. But he is not an a list.

:06:55. > :07:04.Really? Not really. But inexperience? In journalism, but...

:07:05. > :07:13.He was the silver head figure behind the starlet. `` silver haired.

:07:14. > :07:17.Leading the kiss and tell. You are defending your front page? I have

:07:18. > :07:24.two, he is famous enough to merit any tabloid front page. He made a

:07:25. > :07:33.living defending such people in his position `` too. But now he has

:07:34. > :07:38.become the story. He is a story in itself. Let's go on to the

:07:39. > :07:44.Guardian, a cross`party campaign to brand UKIP as racists. This

:07:45. > :07:49.aggressive move comes as there is an anti` Europe move put at 30%. The

:07:50. > :07:58.European elections are coming up and made the 22nd, the polls are putting

:07:59. > :08:05.UKIP first, people are fed up `` the 22nd of May. People are fed up with

:08:06. > :08:09.EU laws and immigration, it is a huge issue, Farage has tapped into

:08:10. > :08:15.this. But in the last week, has unravelled slightly. UKIP members

:08:16. > :08:18.are saying unsavoury things, and some are being kicked out. Now there

:08:19. > :08:26.is a campaign, a cross`party campaign, and they are going to

:08:27. > :08:31.contemn the party as" racist". It is a bold tactic. It is not racism

:08:32. > :08:36.necessarily towards blacks and Asians, but your road races. Yes,

:08:37. > :08:48.you saw these billboards launched by UKIP last week ``euro`racism. I

:08:49. > :08:53.think it is a patronising campaign. It is well`intentioned and

:08:54. > :08:56.well`meaning. This one with UKIP? Yes, this cross`party campaign, most

:08:57. > :09:00.people are intelligent enough to make up their own mind about what

:09:01. > :09:09.they think of UKIP and what they are and to be stand for. `` and what

:09:10. > :09:12.they stand for. More stories have emerged about their policies. I do

:09:13. > :09:16.not think people need a cross`party campaign. For me, it comes across as

:09:17. > :09:20.desperate for the parties to have to get together. But they are desperate

:09:21. > :09:27.because you taking votes from all of them. But if you beat people over

:09:28. > :09:30.the head and say they are racist, don't vote for them, people are

:09:31. > :09:34.already disillusioned by the main parties, which is why they turned

:09:35. > :09:36.UKIP in the first place. This is why there is this reverse effect in

:09:37. > :09:42.pushing people to vote for them in the first place. It harks back to

:09:43. > :09:48.David Cameron 's attack describing them as fruitcakes and loons, that

:09:49. > :09:54.backfired. Exactly. Now they are going to UKIP. They have to be kept

:09:55. > :10:01.not to alienate their own. `` have to be careful not to alienate. Let's

:10:02. > :10:06.go to the times, this is a test to predict those at cancer. There is a

:10:07. > :10:09.tipping point in the battle against a whole range of cancers. More

:10:10. > :10:18.people are now surviving them dying as a result of the disease. ``than.

:10:19. > :10:23.It seems there is an easy way to deal with some male cancers? Yes,

:10:24. > :10:31.there is a simple blood test back and predict the risk of cancers in

:10:32. > :10:35.some older men, some men with a common defect in their white blood

:10:36. > :10:38.cells are more likely to die from cancer than those without the

:10:39. > :10:41.defect. There is a new study showing that half the people diagnosed with

:10:42. > :10:47.cancer survive for at least ten years compared to just a quarter in

:10:48. > :10:51.the 1970s. It is all gaining traction. It is a great

:10:52. > :10:58.breakthrough. We know people, we all do, we have lost friends and family

:10:59. > :11:02.members. To read a story that says 50% people can survive cancer, that

:11:03. > :11:07.is fantastic. It is amazing news. That is the story on the front page

:11:08. > :11:13.of the daily Telegraph. Richard Nixon, I think it was, in the early

:11:14. > :11:20.1970s, it was him who declared a war on cancer. It was a similar

:11:21. > :11:24.thing... He believed if America focused all their attentions on

:11:25. > :11:28.this, they could beat it within a decade or so. That did not happen.

:11:29. > :11:34.Clearly. Why is it only now that they seem to be getting on top of

:11:35. > :11:37.this? It takes time, there is a lot of research and element going on

:11:38. > :11:43.behind the scenes. There is a lot of awareness, for people to recognise

:11:44. > :11:48.early signs. It is heartening to know that it is no longer... In no

:11:49. > :11:54.longer has to be a death sentence. Decades ago, you would hear the

:11:55. > :12:02.C`word, and it would be a automatic death sentence. Now they are saying

:12:03. > :12:08.that women with breast cancer have a 78% survival rate, and men with

:12:09. > :12:13.prostate cancer have an 80% chance. Whereas years ago, it was only 25%

:12:14. > :12:19.rates of survival. Millions has been pumped into research. And it is

:12:20. > :12:23.finally... Yes. It seems to be bearing fruit. On the front of the

:12:24. > :12:35.daily Telegraph as well, a lesson for BBC chiefs in unconscious bias.

:12:36. > :12:42.Indeed. I hope that does not refer to this programme! Not tonight!

:12:43. > :12:45.There has been a huge study of the BBC current affairs output, the

:12:46. > :12:51.results of this will come out this week. We have had some tasters of

:12:52. > :12:58.what may be in the offing. This is a piece which talks of how senior

:12:59. > :13:03.staff have been taken by unconscious bias. There is the perception that

:13:04. > :13:07.those who do hiring and firing will be hiring those who like themselves,

:13:08. > :13:11.who look and sound like themselves. Normally, white and middle`aged men.

:13:12. > :13:17.There seems to be a will, according to this piece, to change that. It is

:13:18. > :13:23.important. People would think, does that really happen? Does it really

:13:24. > :13:27.go on? I think so. It is not a conscious thing, this is the

:13:28. > :13:31.problem. No one goes out of their way not to hire a certain person

:13:32. > :13:35.because of their gender or their race, but I think people working in

:13:36. > :13:39.the media are busy and it is hectic. It is not something that

:13:40. > :13:42.necessarily occurs to them. This is why I think things like this are

:13:43. > :13:47.important, to say, actually, we had to shake things up a bit. So anyone

:13:48. > :13:54.watching the programme tonight shouldn't be for? This is the first

:13:55. > :13:58.time we have been on! It is, actually! This comes from James

:13:59. > :14:03.Harding, the head of news at the BBC. He is very forward thinking.

:14:04. > :14:09.This is a problem for all big corporations. It seems to be a

:14:10. > :14:15.trendy thing. It is done by a lot of corporations. The BBC are taking it

:14:16. > :14:23.on board. It not trendy, it is long overdue. Finally, someone... We have

:14:24. > :14:28.heard about gender and inequality. It has got a lot of attention and

:14:29. > :14:35.things are finally changing. You do not hear a lot about race and

:14:36. > :14:41.diversity. Lenny Henry has been making some noise in this area. What

:14:42. > :14:49.is interesting in these campaigns, these campaigns have been outside of

:14:50. > :14:55.the BBC. They say it is not looking so good. From the inside, no one

:14:56. > :15:00.is... It is not an issue. You don't realise until someone from the

:15:01. > :15:06.outside says it is an issue. It is an unconscious bias. The fact it is

:15:07. > :15:10.noticed now is fantastic. As we said, don't be folded you are

:15:11. > :15:17.watching the programme. Thank you for helping us. `` do not be foaled.

:15:18. > :15:29.Stay with us, at the top of the hour we will have the situation in Leeds.

:15:30. > :15:38.`` more on the situation in Leeds. `` do not be fooled. Now, the latest

:15:39. > :15:43.sports. Hello and welcome to Sportsday, I'm

:15:44. > :15:47.John Watson. On the way tonight: Arsenal seize control of fourth in

:15:48. > :15:48.the race for Champions League Football next
