:00:00. > 3:59:59Championship in Sheffield. That's all in Sportsday in 15 minutes after
:00:00. > :00:16.the Papers. Hello and welcome to our look ahead
:00:17. > :00:20.to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are the
:00:21. > :00:28.broadcaster Daisy McAndrew and Ian Birrell, contributing editor at the
:00:29. > :00:33.Daily Mail. Let's have a look at some of the front pages. We will
:00:34. > :00:36.start with the Metro. Their top story is from an interview with a
:00:37. > :00:39.senior judge who says that unmarried women who live with their partners
:00:40. > :00:42.are thrown on the scrapheap without financial help if the relationship
:00:43. > :00:46.ends and have fewer rights than they expect. And the FT leads with the
:00:47. > :00:49.news that Barclays is to create a bad bank to transform its struggling
:00:50. > :00:52.investment banking operations. The Telegraph says that Nigel Farage
:00:53. > :00:54.does plan to stand in the Newark by`election after former
:00:55. > :01:01.Conservative MP Patrick Mercer announced he will stand down this
:01:02. > :01:03.evening. The Express says that 150,000
:01:04. > :01:14.Eastern European migrants are paying just ?1 a week in tax. The Guardian
:01:15. > :01:17.says the Justice Secretary has told prison governors he wants to cut
:01:18. > :01:20.costs by over ?2000 per prisoner. The Mail leads with one of the
:01:21. > :01:24.tributes to Ann Maguire, the teacher who was killed in her classroom in
:01:25. > :01:30.Leeds. We will start with the Daily
:01:31. > :01:34.Telegraph, Nigel Farage's bid two Rob Cameron, he would be mad to not
:01:35. > :01:42.go for it. It certainly looks like it, the Tories Bill worst nightmare,
:01:43. > :01:47.the European elections, and enable change which means you cannot have
:01:48. > :01:50.the by`election on the same day, they will probably come third in the
:01:51. > :01:53.European elections, they are currently ten points behind UKIP,
:01:54. > :01:58.and then to have this straight afterwards, it could not be worse,
:01:59. > :02:04.perfect territory for UKIP in terms of where there are concerns that
:02:05. > :02:11.they can whip up and exploit. At the same time, it should be said that I
:02:12. > :02:16.do not think the loss of Patrick Mercer will undermine the political
:02:17. > :02:23.body of this country. He is a man who, since being sacked for racism
:02:24. > :02:26.from the front bench, has been on a mission against as leader and Gordon
:02:27. > :02:31.pretty horrendous circumstances involving cash for questions. ``
:02:32. > :02:34.court in. Although he has performed one last the digging the man he
:02:35. > :02:43.clearly does not lie, it is no great loss. Sure, it is clearly does not
:02:44. > :02:51.like David Cameron. Eric Joyce has lost the web but they want to shore
:02:52. > :02:55.up support there. `` the whip. You can see from the company that he
:02:56. > :03:04.keeps, flanked by Bernard Jenkin, Bob Stewart, very much not in the
:03:05. > :03:12.David Cameron camp, both kind of smoking. I think all three of them
:03:13. > :03:16.were smirking. `` smirking. Patrick Mercer reminds you how he is a
:03:17. > :03:19.former soldier all the time, never misses an opportunity. We would all
:03:20. > :03:24.like to see more politicians who have had a proper jobs, but he is
:03:25. > :03:26.quite smug about it a lot of the time and really bangs on about it,
:03:27. > :03:31.and he was obviously enjoying putting the boot into David Cameron,
:03:32. > :03:35.and then other people come out of the woodwork. Lord Ashcroft has been
:03:36. > :03:38.critical of David Cameron, saying he should not be surprised Patrick
:03:39. > :03:43.Mercer has given him a headache, what goes around et cetera, that is
:03:44. > :03:46.what he says. A lot of rejoicing today about the fact that Number Ten
:03:47. > :03:50.is having a right royal headache over this, and one other thing, what
:03:51. > :03:54.you were saying earlier about the fact that they cannot have it on the
:03:55. > :03:58.same day, it is a financial headache as well. If you cannot piggyback on
:03:59. > :04:01.the back of the other and engineering, you have to do a
:04:02. > :04:08.separate campaign, it is very expensive. `` electioneering. That
:04:09. > :04:14.will probably be do you give's benefit because they will be getting
:04:15. > :04:17.all the publicity. Astonishingly self`defeating to see these MPs
:04:18. > :04:22.luxuriating in the fact that their party will get another kicking. It
:04:23. > :04:25.shows why some people are so turned off by politics and why UKIP has
:04:26. > :04:36.done so well, because of the BA view of these people. People in your tent
:04:37. > :04:40.doing something unspeakable! Patrick Mercer polled more than all of the
:04:41. > :04:46.other candidates together at the last election, if Nigel Farage
:04:47. > :04:51.cannot overturn not, will it affect UKIP? He will have a beautiful time
:04:52. > :04:56.of causing trouble and winning headlines and being the dominant
:04:57. > :05:00.story... And being listened to. Anything that is being done to stop
:05:01. > :05:07.people hearing UKIP gives them publicity. This new group saying
:05:08. > :05:11.they are racists, it is giving them publicity, the worst possible thing
:05:12. > :05:16.for their rivals and the best possible thing for UKIP, added not
:05:17. > :05:20.matter if he loses, he will say it was a 16,000 seat majority, I was
:05:21. > :05:24.never going to win it. Very difficult for political advisers,
:05:25. > :05:34.dammed if you do, dammed if you don't. If they do not take the
:05:35. > :05:41.threat head`on, they will say they are living in a metropolitan cocoon.
:05:42. > :05:48.And if they do what you are saying, it is just giving them the oxygen of
:05:49. > :05:52.publicity. More than 90% of the country live in metropolitan areas,
:05:53. > :05:59.so talking about a Metropolitan Police is rather daft! That is going
:06:00. > :06:07.to be a good by`election. `` metropolitan elite. China to
:06:08. > :06:12.overtake the US economy this year in the Financial Times, the prediction
:06:13. > :06:18.was that it would overtake America by 2019`20. By this year,
:06:19. > :06:21.apparently. In fact, as a lot of Chinese economist and they would say
:06:22. > :06:30.they did it lasted, and the Americans would say they did not. ``
:06:31. > :06:34.ask a lot of Chinese economists. We will not know for certain for a few
:06:35. > :06:38.months, but these new figures have put them so far edge it is almost
:06:39. > :06:50.impossible to believe they will not be in pole position. `` so far ahead
:06:51. > :06:54.. It is just statistics and numbers, but it does particularly
:06:55. > :06:58.matter to how the Chinese feel about themselves and how the Americans
:06:59. > :07:02.feel about themselves. As an American businessman or politician,
:07:03. > :07:07.does this matter, and it really will matter. They had a long time to get
:07:08. > :07:14.used to the idea, but that is not the same as the reality. Is the sort
:07:15. > :07:17.of thing that, because of the different constituencies, the way
:07:18. > :07:20.they will see these figures, is it something that would feed into an
:07:21. > :07:25.election campaign in America? Look at what has happened to our prestige
:07:26. > :07:30.on the international stage and the Democrats. I think America is
:07:31. > :07:33.questioning its role in the world, and there is an isolationist
:07:34. > :07:37.tendency and talk of protectionism, and this feeds into it, the idea
:07:38. > :07:41.that America is no longer the dominant economic power. At the same
:07:42. > :07:46.time people see it as a race and if one side is up, the other is down.
:07:47. > :07:50.Remember that while China is growing 24% in three years, America is
:07:51. > :07:54.growing nearly 8%, the whole world is growing and we all benefit from
:07:55. > :08:01.this. The fact China is doing well could be good news for Britain,
:08:02. > :08:04.because the luxury goods and services are going up, they are
:08:05. > :08:08.sending more kids overseas for universities, along with others. We
:08:09. > :08:13.should not necessarily see this as a bad news story, it is good for the
:08:14. > :08:17.whole world ` economic growth, we will feed off each other, this is
:08:18. > :08:22.something positive, despite the fact that it is an interesting,
:08:23. > :08:25.symbolically important moment. I think you are absolutely right in
:08:26. > :08:31.one way. I don't believe it will make any difference to a short`term
:08:32. > :08:36.American election. What I think could start is certain American
:08:37. > :08:41.politicians saying, we are no longer the number one global economy, so we
:08:42. > :08:45.no longer have to be the world's policeman, and you can see that
:08:46. > :08:49.argument taking strength in some areas, saying the world's problems
:08:50. > :08:55.are there problems, why should we pay for everything? And the converse
:08:56. > :08:59.of that is if the Chinese economy is growing and doing well, they have
:09:00. > :09:03.more money to spend on one of the largest armies in the world and on
:09:04. > :09:12.expanding their influence further afield. No doubt China is a growing
:09:13. > :09:20.important part of the equation, and it is spending more on arms, but the
:09:21. > :09:34.world is changing fast. We still have 82,000 soldiers! The Guardian
:09:35. > :09:41.Ian, Labour rubbing out glof era `` Gove era. There are concerns that
:09:42. > :09:44.the changes he's bringing in are shaking up the education system in a
:09:45. > :09:49.way that needed to be done. He's the hate figure for the left.
:09:50. > :09:54.He's loved by the Tory party and is seen as one of the few real
:09:55. > :09:59.successes who've pushed through dramatic reforms. This is Labour and
:10:00. > :10:04.interestingly David Blunkett working with the Education Secretary coming
:10:05. > :10:08.up with something that seems like a muddled solution which is the right
:10:09. > :10:11.word which I don't think it is. It's bureaucratic involving authorities
:10:12. > :10:16.coming together in different groups to appoint the directors who've
:10:17. > :10:19.tried to raise standards. It's a bit of a fudge in that they don't want
:10:20. > :10:22.to give local authorities power again as particularly the unions
:10:23. > :10:26.would like. Nor do they want to allow this sort of independence. It
:10:27. > :10:30.shows the big split between the Conservative Party which really
:10:31. > :10:32.believes in transdevolved power and allowing more freedom to
:10:33. > :10:35.institutions to operate and Labour who have the slightly more
:10:36. > :10:41.interventionist approach and believe in a more dictatorial solution.
:10:42. > :10:49.Again that feeds into the debate you have had with Ed Miliband and Jon
:10:50. > :10:53.Cruddas about the idea of devolving power. It's a muddled solution. I
:10:54. > :10:57.agree from reading what I have about it, it smacks of, remember when
:10:58. > :11:03.every solution to every problem was a new czar and that's exactly what
:11:04. > :11:06.this sounds like, yet another layer of measurement, whether in health or
:11:07. > :11:16.education. It says this is going to be a whole new flanks of independent
:11:17. > :11:22.directors appointed by fixed term contracts. That sounds like a
:11:23. > :11:26.nightmare `` a new fall Lancs. It's believed this will be unpopular with
:11:27. > :11:30.the Labour left. I think it will be very important from my reading of
:11:31. > :11:36.it. I can't see who it's going to be particular with, apart from Deb,
:11:37. > :11:41.Tristram Hunt and maybe some from the educational list. You don't
:11:42. > :11:45.fancy being a director? Well, the probably going to be well paid!
:11:46. > :11:50.We are running out of time. We are going to go straight to Harry
:11:51. > :11:56.actually, at the top of the Telegraph there, no happily ever
:11:57. > :12:01.after for Harry, Prince and Cressida end their romance. Was there much
:12:02. > :12:06.pressure? Secondly, were they going out together? Is it over? Who cares?
:12:07. > :12:12.It's good enough for the front`page of the Daily Mail. I think he will
:12:13. > :12:17.be able to hear the cheeps and `` cheers and whoops of delight of
:12:18. > :12:22.teenagers thinking Prince Harry will be single again and on the market,
:12:23. > :12:25.assuming that's what this story is. The Royals are on something of a
:12:26. > :12:30.crest of a wave, they are on a high at the moment, just seen the Royal
:12:31. > :12:36.tour, the baby, everyone talking about Harry and Cressida. No matter
:12:37. > :12:42.how much we might not like it, it's definitely news and it will be
:12:43. > :12:47.popular news. So the wedding's off, they can put their fascinators away.
:12:48. > :12:52.The wedding is off. Ian, your opinion on this, please? Aagree with
:12:53. > :12:58.everything Daisy says. Can't add anything. I knew you were going to
:12:59. > :13:01.say something along those lines! But why the pressure became too much `
:13:02. > :13:05.that's just the pressure from the press saying they are going to get
:13:06. > :13:10.together, they are going to get married. People are going to want to
:13:11. > :13:18.read it and they have got to try and give it a push. Couldn't you say
:13:19. > :13:23.that about pretty much any relationship that's broken up. Why
:13:24. > :13:27.the pressure became too much ` the pressure of not agreeing. The
:13:28. > :13:32.pressure of hating each other. Not getting on with each other! You are
:13:33. > :13:36.going to be back in an hour for more. More Royal news. We'll have
:13:37. > :13:40.lots more, Ian. I know you are loving it. Many
:13:41. > :13:44.thanks. See you in an hour. Stay with us on BBC News because at the
:13:45. > :13:48.top of the hour, we'll have much more on tonight's resignation by the
:13:49. > :13:53.former Conservative MP Patrick Mercer after allegations he was paid
:13:54. > :14:11.to ask questions in Parliament. Coming up now, it's Sportsday.
:14:12. > :14:17.Welcome to Sportsday. Real Madrid thump Bayern to make the Champions
:14:18. > :14:21.League final. John Terry's played in that final
:14:22. > :14:25.before and he's back tomorrow to help Chelsea get there again. Mark
:14:26. > :14:27.Selby's just one frame away from the
