:00:00. > :00:00.Coming up, we review Louis Ruin, Pompeii and Bad Neighbours. That's
:00:00. > :00:17.on BBC News. Hello and welcome to our look ahead
:00:18. > :00:23.to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow.
:00:24. > :00:26.With me are Nigel Nelson, Political Editor of the Sunday People and
:00:27. > :00:33.writer and political commentator Jo Philips. Quite feisty tonight,
:00:34. > :00:36.behind`the`scenes, don't be fooled. Tomorrow's front pages. The
:00:37. > :00:39.Independent on Sunday is dominated by an image from the continuing
:00:40. > :00:43.violence in Ukraine. The paper's main story is a claim by the head
:00:44. > :00:45.teachers union that pupils at a free school "learn't nothing for a whole
:00:46. > :00:49.term". The Sunday Telegraph says David Cameron has appointed his
:00:50. > :00:51.senior adviser to lead a new drive for compensation for British victims
:00:52. > :00:54.of IRA terrorism. More than 30 Labour parliamentary candidates have
:00:55. > :00:56.written to the Observer calling on Ed Miliband to support
:00:57. > :00:59.renationalising the rail network. According to the Mail on Sunday, the
:01:00. > :01:02.Labour leader is planning a crackdown on drinking, smoking and
:01:03. > :01:09.junk food if he wins the general election. The Sunday Express leads
:01:10. > :01:12.with the news that a BA steward has been found dead after a landing that
:01:13. > :01:16.the paper says left the entire cabin crew unfit to fly. The Sunday Times
:01:17. > :01:19.quotes a top cancer doctor who's calling for cutting`edge treatments
:01:20. > :01:22.to be rationed for the very elderly in favour of younger patients. The
:01:23. > :01:25.paper also reports that David Cameron is willing to take part in a
:01:26. > :01:30.televised debate with UKIP's Nigel Farage ahead of next year's general
:01:31. > :01:34.election. Finally, the Sunday Herald has become the first newspaper to
:01:35. > :01:42.publicly back a Yes vote in the Scottish independence referendum.
:01:43. > :01:54.Let's begin with the times. The idea that the PM may be happy to take on
:01:55. > :01:59.Nigel Farage in a heated debate. Nigel, this wouldn't be this year,
:02:00. > :02:04.in advance of the European elections. If this it was unlikely
:02:05. > :02:10.David Cameron would get out of not doing this. At some point, he would
:02:11. > :02:19.have to have this debate. According to the paper, people do it on a 235
:02:20. > :02:24.debate. The first debate with Ed Miliband on his own as a prospective
:02:25. > :02:28.other PM. Second debate you add Nick Clegg to the mix and in the third
:02:29. > :02:34.debate, the five, you add Nigel Farage and the Green Party eater
:02:35. > :02:40.Natalie Bennett. That is the way he envisages doing it. It sounds like a
:02:41. > :02:46.football team formation. Itself like they are watching match of the day.
:02:47. > :02:55.I wonder who will relish this the most. Probably not the viewers. It
:02:56. > :03:00.sounds a terribly unwieldy way to do it. The debates were great last time
:03:01. > :03:08.around. Listening to people talking about them on buses and trains and
:03:09. > :03:11.in offices, they captured the public imagination in a way that I think
:03:12. > :03:17.sadly, newspapers often fail. People felt there was something real. They
:03:18. > :03:23.like that sort of thing. It is new to us, isn't it? It is. We haven't
:03:24. > :03:32.got as slick as the Americans have it. By the time you get to five
:03:33. > :03:35.people, from a TV point of view, it would be ghastly. Unless you do it
:03:36. > :03:42.like the Americans do, where you have a time limit. There are all
:03:43. > :03:46.sorts of ways of doing it. Just because David Cameron wants it done
:03:47. > :03:51.that way, it doesn't mean it will be done that way. Ed Miliband will have
:03:52. > :03:55.something to say about this. I'm not sure he will want to have Nigel
:03:56. > :04:01.Farage on. Who knows? You probably cannot exclude him. There will
:04:02. > :04:05.possibly be some way of bringing him in. If they do as well as the polls
:04:06. > :04:12.predicting the European elections. On the basis of that, it would be
:04:13. > :04:16.absurd not to have someone with the most European MPs debating in a
:04:17. > :04:19.general election when they are fielding general election
:04:20. > :04:25.candidate. One of our correspondence have spoken to the conservatives who
:04:26. > :04:30.say this is not what the Times is suggesting, saying that nothing has
:04:31. > :04:33.moved as far as they are aware and that the PM has said publicly and
:04:34. > :04:36.privately he welcomes a return to TV debates, discussions about
:04:37. > :04:43.details... As I just said. Just as you said. I wanted to say we have
:04:44. > :04:47.spoken to them and the Conservatives say this is not nailed down. It is
:04:48. > :04:53.up to negotiation. It is about who is chairing and who is casting.
:04:54. > :05:00.Stone because BBC and Sky News. Everyone had to have a go. I don't
:05:01. > :05:08.think it will be, got to view telly. Don't you think Nigel Farage
:05:09. > :05:14.would be box office? Accent he would. On things like that, often
:05:15. > :05:23.they perform in a way you would not expect. `` I think he would. People
:05:24. > :05:29.didn't expect it to happen last. A source close to the PM confirms they
:05:30. > :05:32.are prepared to consider a range of lineups including Nigel Farage. You
:05:33. > :05:41.could say Bruce Forsyth ought Jeremy Parnell, couldn't you? If they mind
:05:42. > :05:47.their manners. Let's move on to the sun Herald. We have a request on
:05:48. > :05:54.social media that we include this `` the Sun. It's not often you get a
:05:55. > :05:58.chance to look at this paper. They are saying yes. It is the first
:05:59. > :06:02.newspaper coming out publicly to back the Scottish Independence
:06:03. > :06:09.referendum, and we hear that the editor of the newspaper, as all
:06:10. > :06:11.newspapers in this group have done, they have been given their free
:06:12. > :06:16.choice as to whether they do or don't back it or whether they stay
:06:17. > :06:22.impartial. Isn't it a stunning? You would put that in a frame. It is
:06:23. > :06:29.really beautifully designed cover. Or in a window. A very significant
:06:30. > :06:37.moment for the SNP and for the. You can ask us anything you like because
:06:38. > :06:41.we can tell you when it started publishing. The longest running
:06:42. > :06:51.national newspaper in the world, two years before the times in 1783 ``
:06:52. > :06:56.are significant moment for the SNP. How significant will it be that this
:06:57. > :06:58.newspaper, or any for that matter, nails its colours to the mast? The
:06:59. > :07:08.significance is the editorial inside. It is something we need to
:07:09. > :07:12.learn in Westminster and Whitehall. Our politicians are getting the
:07:13. > :07:16.argument wrong. In Scotland, which is what the paper will make
:07:17. > :07:22.tomorrow, this is an emotional argument about the future of
:07:23. > :07:24.children, about the idea of governing the country through its
:07:25. > :07:31.citizens. That is an emotional thing. We bang on about things like
:07:32. > :07:36.the pound, tactical issues, North Sea oil, and whether Scotland can be
:07:37. > :07:40.part of Europe. Whereas, the Scots are talking about whether they like
:07:41. > :07:48.the idea of independence. What the paper is suggesting is that they do.
:07:49. > :07:51.It is likely them that the yes vote could carry. If you make an
:07:52. > :07:58.emotional argument, rather than a practical one, it could win. Don't
:07:59. > :08:02.you think this is where the and have got it so wrong? Everytime they have
:08:03. > :08:07.come up with something that is, vote for independence or there will be no
:08:08. > :08:12.break in Scotland. If they concentrated on the negatives or
:08:13. > :08:15.what will happen, rather than the positives of staying put. Yes,
:08:16. > :08:22.exactly. They have welded people in Scotland together. There is nothing
:08:23. > :08:27.so bloody`minded as the Scot. You mean it in a good way to split I do
:08:28. > :08:33.mean it in a good way. There is great political literacy in
:08:34. > :08:37.Scotland. There is a much more open discussion. It is much less tribal.
:08:38. > :08:44.People are Scottish first and party tribal second. I think this is
:08:45. > :08:47.interesting. It is interesting that a newspaper like this could have
:08:48. > :08:52.such an influence. It is spectacular to come out now. It is the first
:08:53. > :08:58.newspaper to publicly back the vote. It is not a surprise. Other
:08:59. > :09:02.newspapers haven't come down one side or another. I wonder if more
:09:03. > :09:09.will? As we get closer to September and the referendum, I would be
:09:10. > :09:17.surprised if newspapers didn't when that happens. This will take the
:09:18. > :09:21.debate one stage forward. It is important that people in London
:09:22. > :09:28.understand where the Scots are coming from in this paper helps. The
:09:29. > :09:34.Sun on Sunday is where we will go. They have commissioned a poll from
:09:35. > :09:39.you Government, asking what people think of Ukip and apparently a lot
:09:40. > :09:46.of people think they have become a magnet form racists and its `` You
:09:47. > :09:54.Gov. They don't think the party itself is racist. It is a
:09:55. > :10:01.fascinating poll and as you said, six out of ten people think that you
:10:02. > :10:03.get is packed with extremists. They are prepared to desert mainstream
:10:04. > :10:09.parties to vote for UKIP. We have said that UKIP is likely to win the
:10:10. > :10:16.European elections at the end of the month. What is interesting is that
:10:17. > :10:20.it isn't that they love UKIP, they actually don't like the other
:10:21. > :10:24.parties. There are lots of parties they do like. If someone could pull
:10:25. > :10:32.all of these things together, they would win all of the elections. UKIP
:10:33. > :10:38.tops the poll with 29% support for the European elections. If Britain
:10:39. > :10:45.went for a hung parliament, most people would prefer a labour, Lib
:10:46. > :10:48.Dem Alliance around. Although the Conservatives got a lead of the
:10:49. > :10:52.economy and David Cameron is seen as the person most suited to be PM, Ed
:10:53. > :10:59.Miliband is seen as most in touch with people. As you say, there are
:11:00. > :11:04.some helpful ingredients. What it shows is that those people who will
:11:05. > :11:09.vote for UKIP, will be a protest vote. It is not that they think UKIP
:11:10. > :11:16.are not racist, they obviously do, they just don't care that they are
:11:17. > :11:19.racist. On that basis, it doesn't matter what the party stands for,
:11:20. > :11:22.they want someone else to vote for a part from the main three parties.
:11:23. > :11:28.Only in these elections, not in the general election. It will give UKIP
:11:29. > :11:34.a bigger platform when it comes to things like that. It will. Lets move
:11:35. > :11:41.on bring rail under state's control, this is more than 30 of Ed
:11:42. > :11:44.Miliband's Labour Party parliamentary candidate calling for
:11:45. > :11:51.a bold new policy to improve rail services. I wonder if you will groan
:11:52. > :11:55.when you read this that they have gone to the papers. We were
:11:56. > :12:00.discussing this. I think this is a briefing. I think the Labour Party
:12:01. > :12:04.have given the Observer this story. Nigel doesn't agree with me. I think
:12:05. > :12:12.it is testing the waters with the electorate. Obviously, anything that
:12:13. > :12:17.paints at band as red, likely to send a fear into a swathe of the
:12:18. > :12:19.population at the thought of nationalisation, which in the mind
:12:20. > :12:24.of some means strikes and walk out and curled up British rail
:12:25. > :12:29.sandwiches and the rest of it, which Ed Balls is aware of the dangers
:12:30. > :12:34.of, there are a lot of commuter belt votes that will make a huge
:12:35. > :12:37.difference and people are fed up with chaotic rail services,
:12:38. > :12:43.expensive rail services. You don't think it is a plant? I don't,
:12:44. > :12:49.because this is a letter to the paper from the candidates. There is
:12:50. > :12:53.a bit of a plot for them to get together in the first place to write
:12:54. > :12:57.the letter. It would appear that this is a growing idea with the
:12:58. > :13:04.Labour Party. What we didn't know at the last newspaper review, which we
:13:05. > :13:07.do now, is that John Paskin is writing in the mirror tomorrow, and
:13:08. > :13:10.he is talking about nationalising public services. It seems to be
:13:11. > :13:16.something labour is talking about. The danger is that the Tories will
:13:17. > :13:22.come back and say that is the old Labour Party. Lets look at the Mail
:13:23. > :13:30.on is under. Read Ed, which is what you said, we will force you to get
:13:31. > :13:34.fit `` Red Ed. It does sound puritanical, that you won't be able
:13:35. > :13:40.to drink or smoke or eat anything healthy, which is grist to the mail
:13:41. > :13:51.mill. People don't like being told what to do this is a good test for
:13:52. > :13:58.Ed Miliband. This is a story of extreme proportions. Most of the
:13:59. > :14:05.proposals actually make sense. If it means there is going to be busloads
:14:06. > :14:11.of inspectors coming to check your food cupboards, then obviously that
:14:12. > :14:14.is ludicrous. If there are lots of public pounds being spent on
:14:15. > :14:22.employing people to come up with ridiculous notions, he has a very
:14:23. > :14:27.low pain, to get people more active in ten years. In the next ten weeks
:14:28. > :14:36.wouldn't be a bad idea. But most of this is sensible. It is how you go
:14:37. > :14:39.about doing it. And those cultural habits are difficult to change. I
:14:40. > :14:45.don't think he is talking about this. We are talking about things
:14:46. > :14:50.that have been around before. Young people don't drink quite so much if
:14:51. > :14:54.you do that. We don't even know if they are going to do that. That is
:14:55. > :15:00.the papers for tonight. Thank you. It has been a long time. Stay with
:15:01. > :15:04.us on BBC News. Much more on the situation in Ukraine. I want to
:15:05. > :15:08.bring you some breaking news before we go. Police investigating
:15:09. > :15:13.allegations of malicious communications following the death
:15:14. > :15:17.of a teacher, Ann McGuire, have arrested a 42`year`old man. The
:15:18. > :15:23.police have said that the man, from Wales, was arrested and remains in
:15:24. > :15:30.custody. Police have charged a man with malicious communications as
:15:31. > :15:34.well, Jake Newsome, 21 years old, from Leeds, has been bailed, to
:15:35. > :15:40.appear before the Magistrates' Court in Leeds on Wednesday the week after
:15:41. > :15:46.next. A couple of instances of malicious communications. More
:15:47. > :15:47.details and we get them. Time now for the Film
