Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
With me are broadcaster Shyama Perera and the Guardian's Social | :00:19. | :00:22. | |
One of Google's key advisors has told to | :00:23. | :00:31. | |
the Independent that the ruling allowing people to ask the search | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
engine to remove their personal information changes "everything" | :00:35. | :00:36. | |
The Daily Mail describes letters being sent to taxpayers by HM | :00:37. | :00:40. | |
Recipients are being warned to re`check | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
Polling carried out for the Daily Telegraph suggests that | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
the majority of those who voted for UKIP in the recent European | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
elections do also intend voting for UKIP in the general election. | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
The new leader of the Police Federation has told the Guardian | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
that the days of "scandal" in his organisation must come to an end. | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
House prices will continue soaring for at least another two years, | :01:01. | :01:03. | |
According to the Financial Times, the European Central Bank is next | :01:04. | :01:07. | |
week "poised" to cut interest rates and boost | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
Finally, the Times reports that David Cameron has joined | :01:10. | :01:21. | |
international calls for the death sentence imposed on a woman in Sudan | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
for marrying a Christian to be reversed. So, let's start with UKIP, | :01:26. | :01:35. | |
which is the next chapter of the local and European elections. That | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
is on the front page of the Daily Telegraph. If this poll is to be | :01:39. | :01:45. | |
believed, it will possibly shut up many politicians that still call | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
this a protest vote. I think this is quite interesting because I do think | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
it is a protest vote. This was a poll that was funded by their | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
financial backer, Paul Sykes. We were just saying, it is 37% of UKIP | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
voters have said they will vote again. That is 37% of 4 million. If | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
you spread that across the country is not a huge number, in terms of | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
bringing in MPs. Is it a flash in the pan? Well, obviously there will | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
be those who will continue voting for UKIP, but the question is not | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
whether it is a flash in the pan, but whether there is a meal being | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
cooked in the pan, and I don't think there is. They are and `` A1 policy | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
party, but that means it is very clear what they are about. One could | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
argue that the people voting for them know what they are voting for | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
and they will stick with it. It was an interesting strategy coming into | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
these elections, because they just wanted to talk about Europe and | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
immigration and tie them together. No one question them on anything | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
else because they had no policies, because they dismissed their | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
prospectus just before they arrived on the scene. Voters have not made | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
up their minds. 37% of 4 million is about 1 million. The Conservatives | :03:05. | :03:09. | |
got 10 million people voting for them at the last election, so we are | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
talking about 3% or 5% of the general electorate. And there are | :03:14. | :03:18. | |
still more than 30 million people who did not vote at all. The job for | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
many of the parties will be to reach out to those people. And it is not a | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
bad thing anyway if a third of these people say they will vote again for | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
UKIP. UKIP, whether we like it or not, has forced a number of serious | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
issues onto the agenda which need to be addressed between now and the | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
next election. If the threat of the UKIP vote going up, or staying | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
loyal, is held over the main parties, maybe we will see some | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
movement. Staying with the Daily Telegraph, towards the bottom of the | :03:49. | :03:57. | |
page, junk food applications to attract children must be banned. | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
Basically, it is internet advertising. There are strict rules | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
on television advertising. It is another example of how underhand | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
multinationals can be when they want to be. They have been banned from | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
dealing with children's television, and sticking on adverts for fatty | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
soft drinks, but they still managed to get it on various devices. How | :04:19. | :04:27. | |
does it work? If you search on a search engine, it notes that you are | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
interested in that product, probably of that age and that area of the | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
world, and then they latch onto it and start sending you adverts. This | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
was actually a game developed by Coca`Cola and McDonald's. It was | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
that blatant. There was no sneaking in! But it is also about pop`up | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
windows. It is about advertising that can pop up on a child's | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
computer screen. How do you police that? Do you know, I can't get | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
terribly excited about children being targeted by advertisers | :05:02. | :05:03. | |
because at the end of the day they are always targeted within their | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
capability, and ways have been, whether on TV, Saturday morning | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
pictures or whatever. It is down to the parents to deal with it. If your | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
child knows that it is no fizzy drinks, the advert for fizzy drinks | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
is not going to make the child believe they will get it. This is | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
all about the belief that everything is outside our control. But it is | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
pressure for the parents. It is more pressure for the parents, another | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
thing they have to be responsible for. Of course, but, you know what, | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
you have children, you are responsible for them. It's as simple | :05:39. | :05:44. | |
as that. The Independent dedicates its front page to the new privacy | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
laws affecting Google. A rethink of basic freedoms, is how it is | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
described. This is speaking to an Oxford philosopher who is charged | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
with advising Google on the new law. Is this really a revolutionary | :05:58. | :06:04. | |
change for Google? I suppose so. As I am the standard, the date will | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
still hang around but Google will not link to it on a search. But if | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
you went to a newspaper and searched for it, it would. For Google, it | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
means a whole set of bureaucracy they did not want to have to deal | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
with. They always maintained they have nothing to do with the | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
information but just tell people where it is, a library system of | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
sorts. What information are we talking about and where does it go? | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
It will be caught cases, mainly. That is where the concentration is | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
at the moment. At some point it will be footballers having affairs and | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
the usual celebrity nonsense. In the first instance, the complaint is | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
that people whose criminal convictions are long spent are still | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
being made to pay for them and suffer for them, because employers | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
now Google people before they ring them in for interview. Therefore, a | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
misdemeanour in your youth, or a one`off bad moment is held against | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
you for the rest of your life. Interestingly, the case that was | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
referred to, that case, the professor did not think that would | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
actually get removed because he said, it is public knowledge, public | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
information. We can't patrol other people's prejudice, if you like. It | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
could be argued that sometimes it is important for the information to | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
remain out there, rather than being removed. In the past, people would | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
have said, I want to see that, but you could not because there was not | :07:32. | :07:37. | |
the means. The Daily Mail headline is just as frightening as some of | :07:38. | :07:44. | |
the letters it is describing. Absolute nonsense! Taxman's bully | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
boy letters to innocent families. Hundreds of innocent taxpayers, it | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
says, have been sent letters by the Inland Revenue asking them why they | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
are paying not enough tax. Most Inland Revenue letters are quite | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
frightening, aren't they? Paying tax is frightening, but that is life! | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
This story is so ridiculous. It is an alarming letter sent to homes | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
telling them that Taxman has been scrutinising their self`assessment | :08:13. | :08:14. | |
form and their bill is lower than the average for people with a | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
similar amount of income! This takes up one and a half pages! When you | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
read through, it has been sent to 1000 higher rate taxpayers. They are | :08:25. | :08:31. | |
in the top 5%, and they are putting in tax returns which suggest they | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
are not paying as much as they should be. And the Daily Mail gives | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
reasons for this, because apparently if you make a large charity donation | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
you pay less, or if you make a large pension payment. What sort of large | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
are we talking about? Is it outrageous, at a time when we are so | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
angry at large organisations not paying tax, at the fat cats not | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
paying tax, is it outrageous that people who are earning a lot and | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
don't appear to be paying the right amount of tax are just sent a | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
standard letter, asking them to check and please let the Inland | :09:07. | :09:12. | |
Revenue know? I partly agree. The difference here, this is a Daily | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
Mail campaign. They revealed earlier this week that the taxman wants the | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
power to dip into the bank accounts of married couples and their | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
savings. We don't see companies being busted by HMRC and their | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
capital savings being rifled through. So I think there is | :09:32. | :09:37. | |
probably a little bit too strong arm tactics, if these things do come out | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
in the way the Daily Mail portrays them. Surely, there is actually an | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
argument to extend this to companies, rather than to not do it | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
for the little man. I would prefer it was done to companies first, | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
perhaps! The Daily Express, depending on what paper you read and | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
choose to believe, depends on what is happening to house prices. | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
Soaring house prices is good for some but horrific for most. House | :10:09. | :10:10. | |
prices are to some but horrific for most. House | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
prices soar by 12% is their headline. Gosh, what a surprise! The | :10:14. | :10:27. | |
economists are predicting this. The boom will last until 2016, | :10:28. | :10:35. | |
evidently. Didn't we know this? May be house prices will zoom in | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
Liverpool or something. They are zooming in London. Absolutely. As | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
somebody who for the last 15 years has earned houses that are earning | :10:45. | :10:45. | |
more has earned houses that are earning | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
each day than I am, I know all about this. I don't think it's a great | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
thing but nor do I think it is a surprise. I don't quite understand | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
why it is the front page. I would rather have had this football fan's | :10:57. | :11:05. | |
World Cup mission as the main story. We love owning our castle. Let's | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
move on to the financial Times. Tony Blair on the front page. Blair | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
presses for pro`European role to fight the rise of populism. This is | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
off the back of the European elections and the rise of right`wing | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
groups and populism. Tony Blair is stepping in. I suppose there isn't | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
really a figure. Nick Clegg attempted it and failed. There is | :11:34. | :11:37. | |
not a figure selling the EU in Britain and Tony Blair is a good | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
salesman. But if there is going to be a referendum, which is looking | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
likely, somebody needs to do that. People would perhaps learn about the | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
benefits of the EU, rather than the drawbacks and problems. There is | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
never much of that reported. It seems to me that former prime and it | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
is are just the right people to do it. This week, I have heard Tony | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
Blair and John Major give lucid arguments for remaining in the EU, | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
reminding us why we are there, why we can't extricate ourselves and why | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
we would be mad to try. And it is quite nice to hear their measured | :12:14. | :12:16. | |
tones, reminding us why they themselves supported it. It feels | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
very different from, let us say, the S NP, why we should leave the UK. | :12:24. | :12:32. | |
This feels a very positive, probe Laura Liz argument. `` argument in | :12:33. | :12:43. | |
favour of pluralism. I wonder how it goes down in Europe. This is a | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
bigger role than just the UK. We must leave it there but you will be | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
back later with more insight into the papers. Thanks for taking us | :12:53. | :13:00. | |
through. Stay with us on BBC News. Later, a big rise in the number of | :13:01. | :13:04. | |
illegal migrants coming to Europe from North Africa. Next, Sportsday. | :13:05. | :13:29. | |
