:00:00. > :00:00.freed after five years. Coming up, a report on Niger's child

:00:00. > :00:18.brides. Hello and welcome to our look

:00:19. > :00:21.ahead to what the the papers With me are Nigel Nelson,

:00:22. > :00:27.Political Editor of the The Sunday People, and the stand`up

:00:28. > :00:32.comedian Romesh Ranganathan. Let's have a look

:00:33. > :00:35.at tomorrow's front pages. The Observer says

:00:36. > :00:38.the Labour leader Ed Miliband is facing a backbench revolt over his

:00:39. > :00:42.immigration policy `` his critics warn that unless he gets tougher he

:00:43. > :00:45.risks losing working class voters The Independent

:00:46. > :00:49.on Sunday features the campaign for justice for two Indian girls

:00:50. > :00:53.who were raped and murdere. The paper also reports that

:00:54. > :00:56.a study here shows that death rates in NHS hospitals significantly

:00:57. > :00:58.increase at the weekends. The Sunday Times alleges it has

:00:59. > :01:05.evidence which shows that the World Cup should not have been

:01:06. > :01:08.awarded to Qatar in 2022. While the Sun on Sunday reports that

:01:09. > :01:14.police are investigating allegations of match`fixing ahead of the

:01:15. > :01:16.World Cup in Brazil. The Sunday Telegraph's lead is that

:01:17. > :01:20.there will be a radical reform of workplace pensions announced

:01:21. > :01:49.in this week's Queen's Speech. Observer. It's about a woman who was

:01:50. > :01:55.brought up a Christian and refuse to take up Islam. This is great news.

:01:56. > :02:05.It looks fairly clear that this was international pressure that maybe

:02:06. > :02:10.Sudanese change their mind. David Cameron, world leaders, they leapt

:02:11. > :02:14.on these things when they happen, but nothing really happens in

:02:15. > :02:19.between. We should be thinking more about Western leaders understanding

:02:20. > :02:23.Islam better to stop these things happening in the first place. It is

:02:24. > :02:29.still pretty disgraceful that she was giving a death sentence, but

:02:30. > :02:38.without us knowing about it and the international condemnation, she

:02:39. > :02:42.would not have in freed. The death sentence is part of the whole

:02:43. > :02:51.sentence which included a hundred lashes, which no one will survive.

:02:52. > :02:56.It is a strange setup. They seem to be one and the same. What is

:02:57. > :03:00.incredible is that she was sentenced to death for refusing to renounce

:03:01. > :03:07.her Christian beliefs. If you are in a situation where you have children,

:03:08. > :03:15.you would say anything to get out of, you would renounce anything to

:03:16. > :03:27.get out of eight death sentence. It's an incredible thing that she

:03:28. > :03:38.think so much about her beliefs. It is difficult to know whether this

:03:39. > :03:46.would have gone away straightaway. It is quite often a situation where

:03:47. > :03:53.women in Sudan to renounce their faith. It brings to question, how

:03:54. > :04:01.often does this go on? Exactly. We should not be intervening when there

:04:02. > :04:05.is a crisis. One of the things Tony Blair constantly says is we try and

:04:06. > :04:13.solve things with politics and religion is often at the heart of

:04:14. > :04:19.it. The Sudanese government are saying this is not a change in

:04:20. > :04:23.attitude, it is part of the judicial process that will lead to her being

:04:24. > :04:30.released. They can say that, but this has become a worldwide issue

:04:31. > :04:34.and everyone is up in arms. They can say that because they don't want to

:04:35. > :04:42.be seen to be taking a step back from their position. It is difficult

:04:43. > :04:48.because it is interesting seeing the response in this country where we

:04:49. > :04:54.are in a current climate of people feeling distrustful of Islam because

:04:55. > :04:57.of various arguments and issues and to see a story like this take

:04:58. > :05:05.prominence, it is quite worrying when you see the reaction. If you

:05:06. > :05:10.look on social network, people are saying they are worried about Islam

:05:11. > :05:15.because of things like this happening. It comes from a lack of

:05:16. > :05:22.understanding. This is about an interpretation of the religion. That

:05:23. > :05:27.the point I was trying to make about understanding. There needs to be

:05:28. > :05:35.more dialogue. Absolutely, otherwise you just get a story like this.

:05:36. > :05:45.Without an understanding, you can see why people jump to that

:05:46. > :05:51.conclusion. There has been no understanding or context. I hope

:05:52. > :05:55.that this is a springboard for people to set up a dialogue and

:05:56. > :06:08.increase their understanding because it is dangerous. People could

:06:09. > :06:14.develop ideas that are not true. Let us stay with the Observer. Miliband

:06:15. > :06:22.was get tough on EU migrants, demand MPs. This is of the back of the

:06:23. > :06:29.recent elections, which were not particularly edifying for any of the

:06:30. > :06:38.main parties. These are seven MPs who have written an open letter to

:06:39. > :06:43.the Observer. They are talking about restricting migration from the EU.

:06:44. > :06:48.By doing that, we need to renegotiate our terms of entry,

:06:49. > :06:52.which David Cameron is trying to do for the 2017 referendum. Two of the

:06:53. > :07:02.MPs, who have written to the Observer, they are on the

:07:03. > :07:15.Eurosceptic wing of the Labour Party. Immigration is the subject

:07:16. > :07:22.that MPs say people care most about. Elliptical leaders cannot walk away

:07:23. > :07:24.from it. `` political leaders cannot walk away from it and one of the

:07:25. > :07:32.reasons for UKIP's successes because they were prepared to talk about it.

:07:33. > :07:39.It is something the main political leaders have not tackled and that

:07:40. > :07:41.has been the driving force behind UKIP gaining popularity because they

:07:42. > :07:46.are talking about something the general public think should have

:07:47. > :07:52.been talked about. It is difficult to talk about immigration without

:07:53. > :07:58.sounding like a racist and that is why people are nervous about talking

:07:59. > :08:05.about it. You can imagine saying one phrase that is slightly out of turn

:08:06. > :08:10.and then every paper will be on it and everyone will be on it. This is

:08:11. > :08:13.a reaction to the fact that UKIP have tackled an issue and are happy

:08:14. > :08:20.to talk about something that the other leaders are scared to talk

:08:21. > :08:26.about, or have been scared to talk about. They are trying to take some

:08:27. > :08:30.of the impetus and say, we are dealing with it as well. Pressure on

:08:31. > :08:36.the Labour Party to promise a referendum. There is pressure on

:08:37. > :08:42.them, and maybe they will get it. What Ed Miliband has two work out is

:08:43. > :08:47.if he promises a referendum, will that neutralise Europe as an issue

:08:48. > :08:50.at the general election. Once he has decided that, we will know where we

:08:51. > :09:00.are. We will know by the party conference whether that is so. If

:09:01. > :09:07.you are going to deal with European migration specifically, the only way

:09:08. > :09:13.to do that is to deal with Europe. Radical pension reforms in the

:09:14. > :09:19.Sunday Telegraph. Workers will be able to invest in a mega fun that

:09:20. > :09:25.could boost savings. This is a shake`up of workplace pensions that

:09:26. > :09:34.haven't been in place that long and they are already being shook up. We

:09:35. > :09:42.are moving towards a Dutch like megaphones. I am on board with that

:09:43. > :09:49.because I like the sound of it. `` mega fund. The idea is you put the

:09:50. > :09:52.money in a massive part in it reduces the cost because you are

:09:53. > :09:58.dealing with it on such a large scale. It sounds good, and also,

:09:59. > :10:04.they have used mega fund repeatedly in the article. They have also said

:10:05. > :10:13.it gives pensioners and increased freedom to spend their savings in

:10:14. > :10:22.the way they want. Giving pensioners a chance to go on a massive splurge

:10:23. > :10:25.has to be celebrated. The suggestion in this article is that it will take

:10:26. > :10:31.the pressure off some of the parties, or did you leave the

:10:32. > :10:35.coalition who have had it rough. Pensions are a major problem. We did

:10:36. > :10:42.not address the difficulties of an ageing population early enough and

:10:43. > :10:46.now they are paying the price. The idea is that if you have got one of

:10:47. > :10:52.these megaphones that we are so fond of now, you can cut the

:10:53. > :10:58.administration cost down. If you are looking at the same amount of money

:10:59. > :11:01.we put into a pension here and the amount someone in Holland is putting

:11:02. > :11:09.in, they will get a 30% better return than we do and that is purely

:11:10. > :11:13.by cutting down the administration costs. The pension industry is not

:11:14. > :11:18.enthusiastic about this, but hopefully they will. The one thing I

:11:19. > :11:27.do understand is that this is supposed to be the reforms whereby

:11:28. > :11:31.they are trying to claw back some popularity. But immigration is the

:11:32. > :11:37.issue everyone is talking about. I can't imagine someone sitting back

:11:38. > :11:49.and saying, they are working on pension reforms. Great. It's not a

:11:50. > :11:54.solution. People are talking about immigration and this does not feel

:11:55. > :12:00.as if it is something people want. Lets have a look at the Sunday

:12:01. > :12:21.Times. Craig is at a record low. He is the least popular leader in

:12:22. > :12:25.recent history. I think part of the problem is his body language. He

:12:26. > :12:31.does not carry himself as if he is organised. He needs to throw his

:12:32. > :12:37.shoulders back and really go for it. He looks like a sky who got a dodgy

:12:38. > :12:46.sandwich at lunch time and he is upset about it. `` looks like a sky.

:12:47. > :12:53.But there are rumblings in the party. People have said he needs to

:12:54. > :13:03.go. Bay are upset. There was a goblin, obviously, but the first

:13:04. > :13:09.past the post will save him. The wipe`out came under the proportional

:13:10. > :13:20.representation system. Back to the Sunday Telegraph. What a to`do about

:13:21. > :13:24.how do we do. The English are unsure of what to do when greeting each

:13:25. > :13:35.other because of the decline of the phrase, how do you do? If you say to

:13:36. > :13:49.someone, how do you do? You don't really want to know. If you said

:13:50. > :14:02.that to me, and you didn't... I'm sorry about that. Cape Fox says we

:14:03. > :14:10.should into juice it again. `` Kate Fox. She has a point. You don't know

:14:11. > :14:16.when you are greeting someone whether to go for a handshake or a

:14:17. > :14:21.Hogg or one case or two. It is a horrible situation. I have had

:14:22. > :14:42.relationships ruined before they have even started.

:14:43. > :14:52.do, you are not supposed to respond. In the next hour come up with a

:14:53. > :15:10.decent response. That is the papers macro `` that was The Papers. Coming

:15:11. > :15:11.up next, more on the race in which three people were killed in the

:15:12. > :15:38.Scottish Borders. Welcome to Reporters. From here, in

:15:39. > :15:39.the world's newsroom, we send out reporters across the
