:00:00. > :00:00.ready for action for the Commonwealth Games. And who will
:00:00. > :00:00.play in rugby next season? All that in 15 minutes
:00:00. > :00:19.after the papers. Hello and welcome to
:00:20. > :00:21.our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow.
:00:22. > :00:24.With me are the political commentator Lance Price,
:00:25. > :00:27.and Tony Grew, who's parliamentary editor at Politics Home.
:00:28. > :00:37.Tomorrow's front pages. We start with a look at the FT, and
:00:38. > :00:41.the top story of Tesco's dismal trading results. The chief executive
:00:42. > :00:46.said they were the worst he had seen in his 40 year career. The express
:00:47. > :00:52.is claiming that a healthy lifestyle is the key to beating dementia. The
:00:53. > :00:57.independent's a main picture is of Hong Kong's defiant stance against
:00:58. > :01:01.China's Tiananmen Square blackout, with crowds holding a candlelit
:01:02. > :01:05.vigil. The Telegraph leads with the death of a baby reportedly from a
:01:06. > :01:09.contaminated batch of intravenous medication. The picture is of the
:01:10. > :01:12.Queen's page boy who collapsed during her speech. That is also the
:01:13. > :01:25.big story in the guardian. The Daily Mail says it is the first
:01:26. > :01:29.time in British history that a trial has been held entirely in secret.
:01:30. > :01:37.And the Mirror has a picture of the UKIP leader Nigel Farage with a
:01:38. > :01:43.female companion in Malta. So let's begin with the Telegraph. A number
:01:44. > :01:47.of papers reflecting on the Queen's Speech, but this photograph takes is
:01:48. > :01:53.there, and you were there. I was there in the press gallery this
:01:54. > :01:58.morning. This captures beautifully the moment, because the main problem
:01:59. > :02:02.for the press, like myself and most of the other people watching, was
:02:03. > :02:13.that we couldn't see what was going on. This gentleman carrying the
:02:14. > :02:18.cap, here's a Cabinet minister, it was quite difficult to see what was
:02:19. > :02:22.going on. The Queen was about nine minutes into the speech, and it can
:02:23. > :02:30.be quite boring. You know what is going to be in it anyway. And this
:02:31. > :02:33.is one of the pages of honour, they carry her Parliamentary Rob, which
:02:34. > :02:48.is quite heavy, said that it doesn't drag behind her. He is known as
:02:49. > :02:53.Viscount Eyrthry. The Queen kept on reading the speech. You can see that
:02:54. > :02:59.Charles and Camilla were concerned. He was taken out and recovered quite
:03:00. > :03:04.quickly, we were told, and was reunited with his family, and then
:03:05. > :03:17.the Queen was left with three train bearers who had to try to manhandle
:03:18. > :03:20.the train. It does get very hot in there, because you have all of the
:03:21. > :03:28.peers and the MPs crowding in, and you have the TV like. So you have to
:03:29. > :03:34.feel some and sympathy for the poor lad. I don't think it was a comment
:03:35. > :03:37.on the tedium of the speech. There was a little flicker of the eyes
:03:38. > :03:45.from the Queen, which the cameras picked up, but there wasn't a lot in
:03:46. > :03:49.the speech. It wasn't a big event in that sense. It is the last one
:03:50. > :03:52.before the general election, a truncated year anyway because of the
:03:53. > :03:54.timing of it all. Most of the politicians will be much more
:03:55. > :03:59.concerned about what is going into their manifestos than the last bits
:04:00. > :04:07.and pieces of legislation, so it is not surprising that there isn't a
:04:08. > :04:14.great deal. 11 bills, Tony. Most of them have been trial. No new ideas,
:04:15. > :04:19.no great surprises. This is the Lib Dems' fault. They insisted that the
:04:20. > :04:24.parliament would be five years, but in Lib Dem classic attempts to
:04:25. > :04:31.tinker with the constitution, they wanted to set all of the
:04:32. > :04:36.parliaments to be five years long. If the Prime Minister thinks he is
:04:37. > :04:39.going to win, Parliament is normally about four years. At the moment, we
:04:40. > :04:45.should be getting ready for a general election. The tough stuff of
:04:46. > :04:52.the coalition agreement has already been done, so there is very little
:04:53. > :04:55.left that the parties agree on to put into the Queen's Speech, which
:04:56. > :05:00.is why they were talking about a tax on plastic bags. I think people will
:05:01. > :05:08.be talking about that. I think it might be more other talking point
:05:09. > :05:14.than you think. That is a very England centric view, it is already
:05:15. > :05:19.applicable in Northern Ireland and Wales and coming in Scotland, so
:05:20. > :05:25.only the English will be interested in that. One of the issues raised
:05:26. > :05:29.was fracking. The Metro goes with the idea of them drilling under your
:05:30. > :05:32.home. It sounds terrifying that they could come and park themselves
:05:33. > :05:37.somewhere near to your home and go underneath it without having to ask
:05:38. > :05:41.your permission to do so. But it is fascinating the way in which the
:05:42. > :05:45.whole fracking debaters developed. It has become one about energy
:05:46. > :05:50.security. We don't want to be dependent on the Middle East on
:05:51. > :05:55.Russian gas and so on. The debate is different in this country what it is
:05:56. > :05:59.and others. In France, everyone is opposed to fracking, and no
:06:00. > :06:02.government could get away with this. The Germans have been opposed up
:06:03. > :06:05.until now, but it seems they are coming around to it, because they
:06:06. > :06:11.don't want to be dependent on the Russians. So whether or not we will
:06:12. > :06:15.see these people turning up outside our front door is soon, it depends
:06:16. > :06:22.where you live. A green energy campaigner was quoted, you shouldn't
:06:23. > :06:27.the allowed to turn up outside someone's home and start fracking
:06:28. > :06:33.under their garden. It sounds like a line from a comedy! This could be
:06:34. > :06:44.the new North Sea oil for Britain. It could solve our energy needs, and
:06:45. > :06:47.America is used in example. But this could be one part of the Queen's
:06:48. > :06:51.Speech that could prove contentious. The Lib Dems are not happy. If you
:06:52. > :06:57.introduce legislation in your last year as a Government, of the Lord's
:06:58. > :07:01.start to object, it falls. I will be interested to see what Labour have
:07:02. > :07:05.to say about this as we get closer to the general election. It seems
:07:06. > :07:10.like a no`brainer. If the Tories are keen, they should be opposing it.
:07:11. > :07:12.And it is interesting that David Cameron was telling us that his
:07:13. > :07:19.would be the greenest Government ever, all about the wind farms,
:07:20. > :07:23.solar energy, natural advantages that the UK has, and now it is all
:07:24. > :07:31.about fracking. We have gone from being the Green party into some kind
:07:32. > :07:35.of wild west scenario. My understanding of Labour's position
:07:36. > :07:39.is that whilst not opposed to fracking, it shouldn't be seen as
:07:40. > :07:42.the answer to everything, and it has to go alongside other sources of
:07:43. > :07:48.energy. Any common`sense person would tell you that. A sensible
:07:49. > :07:55.country has a mix of energy sources. It may be that fracking can continue
:07:56. > :08:04.to contribute to that. And there may be advantages to it. I have heard it
:08:05. > :08:08.talked around in Parliament, jokes that Lancashire could fall into the
:08:09. > :08:14.sea which was popular in Yorkshire! Indeed! There is a limited amount we
:08:15. > :08:20.can say about the secret trial, for obvious reasons. What you make of
:08:21. > :08:26.it? It is extraordinary. It is almost like a super injunction,
:08:27. > :08:30.where you can't even referred to the fact that there is an injunction. Up
:08:31. > :08:34.until today, it wasn't even possible for journalists to refer to the fact
:08:35. > :08:39.that there was a trial in secret, even that was a secret. And clearly
:08:40. > :08:41.it is something that greatly concerns civil liberties
:08:42. > :08:46.campaigners, and they are quoted in the story here. But it is troubling
:08:47. > :08:50.for all of us to know that this sort of thing can happen. It appears that
:08:51. > :08:55.the prosecution felt that unless it was in secret, they wouldn't be able
:08:56. > :08:58.to prosecute the case at all. We can't judge that because we have no
:08:59. > :09:00.idea what they are talking about or who the defendants are.
:09:01. > :09:04.idea what they are talking about or The question that I still have in my
:09:05. > :09:08.mind, because I haven't been able to find an answer so far, is who has
:09:09. > :09:14.the power to decide that a trial like this can take place without any
:09:15. > :09:24.others know anything about it. Does that prey on your mind? Two points
:09:25. > :09:28.occurred to me, not all trials are open, there are severe restrictions
:09:29. > :09:32.on the family courts. I guess this comes down to whether you believe
:09:33. > :09:36.the security services are doing this because they genuinely feel it could
:09:37. > :09:44.jeopardise National Security Agency around, and the second thing is,
:09:45. > :09:49.although I object to any do anything that means journalists can't
:09:50. > :09:53.observe, but at least we're not taking people to Guantanamo Bay just
:09:54. > :10:07.assuming we cannot bring our processes forward. It is an old
:10:08. > :10:15.adage that justice must be seen to be done, that would undermine one of
:10:16. > :10:17.the fundamental principles. I know you have been reading the Tesco's
:10:18. > :10:30.story with interest, dismal Tesco has been the juggernaut of
:10:31. > :10:31.British supermarkets, it has powered ahead in the last three decades,
:10:32. > :10:40.from the domestic landscape in terms of
:10:41. > :10:46.supermarket shopping. A lot of countries it is heading. One thing
:10:47. > :10:51.that really jumped out, shareholder returns, and for Tesco since 2011,
:10:52. > :11:01.minus 13.9, Morrisons still struggling, minus 16. Ocado, 84.4%,
:11:02. > :11:06.a huge jump. If I was a shareholder, I would be looking at the home
:11:07. > :11:10.delivery market. I am not a market analyst, but this is interesting.
:11:11. > :11:14.People seem to have fallen out of love with very large shops that they
:11:15. > :11:21.have invested a lot of money on, and they are facing competition now from
:11:22. > :11:27.some of the better value... It is from above and below. Tesco's
:11:28. > :11:31.problem is they are stuck in the middle. They are doing quality food,
:11:32. > :11:36.but there are people doing much cheaper food, which there is a
:11:37. > :11:39.market for. I think the chief executive is under a lot of
:11:40. > :11:44.pressure. He says he is not going anywhere, but I would have thought
:11:45. > :11:50.that his position must be under considerable threat after all of
:11:51. > :11:54.this. And not because they don't, as Tony says, still have a huge market
:11:55. > :11:58.share, but he's talking about quarter after quarter where the
:11:59. > :12:02.situation is not going to improve, and I think there's only so long
:12:03. > :12:10.that shareholders and board members will be prepared to be patient.
:12:11. > :12:14.Another good brand name, we have seen so many iconic stores going out
:12:15. > :12:19.of business. It is not going to happen in this case, but the scale
:12:20. > :12:23.of them as a company, the turnaround plan is worth ?1 billion, vast
:12:24. > :12:27.amounts of money. We are out of time, gentlemen, we have talked at
:12:28. > :12:31.such length about Tesco that we have not had time to move onto another
:12:32. > :12:37.one. Thank you for the moment, see you at 11:30 for another look at the
:12:38. > :12:41.stories making the news. Stay with us on BBC News, at 11 the
:12:42. > :12:45.coalition's final agenda before the general election, the Queen sets out
:12:46. > :12:49.new bills to sack misbehaving MPs and an overhaul of vengeance. But
:12:50. > :12:53.coming up next, it is time for Sportsday. `` an overhaul of
:12:54. > :12:56.pensions.
