software to tackle America's problems with gun control.

Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers

:00:15.:00:17.

With me is Martin Bentham, Home Affairs Editor at the London Evening

:00:18.:00:22.

Standard and Yasmin Alibhai Brown, columnist from the Independent.

:00:23.:00:35.

The mother of a man from Cardiff filmed in a jihadist recruitment

:00:36.:00:39.

video appealing for him to come home is the lead story for the Metro.

:00:40.:00:42.

The Daily Telegraph's front story is an investigation into claims

:00:43.:00:46.

The paper also says the MI6 were handed intelligence five months ago

:00:47.:00:53.

outlining the takeover of jihadists is Northern Iraq.

:00:54.:00:57.

''Tories put Profits over Patients'' is the headline on the Mirror, top

:00:58.:01:01.

doctors criticising the Health and Social Care Act saying millions are

:01:02.:01:04.

The Guardian has the ongoing row over who will be the next president

:01:05.:01:15.

of the European Commission. The Daily Express focuses on Britain

:01:16.:01:18.

facing what it calls 'hayfever hell' with double

:01:19.:01:21.

the sufferers this summer. You were sniffing your way through

:01:22.:01:28.

the main bulletin because URA sufferer. MI6 neglected and alert to

:01:29.:01:40.

jihadi 's takeover. Intelligence of this plan takeover of northern Iraq

:01:41.:01:47.

by Isis. It appears that it was the Kurds who were trying to encourage

:01:48.:01:50.

Britain and America to engage in some way. We know that there's

:01:51.:01:55.

precious little intelligence about where the ISIS fighters are and who

:01:56.:02:00.

they are. The Kurds thought that this risk was there. The question is

:02:01.:02:08.

what would we have done if we had responded to this. The fact of the

:02:09.:02:12.

matter is that the Americans and we as well are not very keen to get

:02:13.:02:18.

involved. Barack Obama is quoted here from yesterday saying we can't

:02:19.:02:31.

think we will play whackamole. Perhaps with hindsight there should

:02:32.:02:36.

have been some response. It wouldn't have been a full`scale military

:02:37.:02:44.

response. With all this going on, all of us, all of the time, it would

:02:45.:02:49.

have helped, surely, for behind`the`scenes work to be done,

:02:50.:02:54.

at least to know who is arming these guys. This is a well`planned

:02:55.:03:03.

initiative. Everybody knows where they are going next. If there was

:03:04.:03:07.

any information surely there's something that could have been done.

:03:08.:03:13.

The Telegraph is saying that there was a bit of neglect. There have

:03:14.:03:17.

been more and more examples of that. What could have been done is

:03:18.:03:23.

what we've seen in recent days with military advisers, giving some

:03:24.:03:27.

strategic advice about how to defend the place and maybe bolstering

:03:28.:03:33.

defences in some ways. It has to be remembered that it wasn't just the

:03:34.:03:36.

Americans being desperate to get out of Iraq. It was the government that

:03:37.:03:43.

wanted him to leave. It's not a Western governments to intervene

:03:44.:03:49.

because of what has happened in the there are so much intelligence work

:03:50.:03:53.

and other kinds of interventions that happened behind the scenes. I

:03:54.:03:58.

don't know how this was allowed to get to this point macro. It has got

:03:59.:04:03.

to this point because of what has happened in Syria. Isis has been

:04:04.:04:11.

growing in strength. Five months ago they hadn't even taken for Lucia ``

:04:12.:04:22.

another city. It's not back closely linked with Syria. In such a

:04:23.:04:28.

well`planned insurgents. There's a huge amount of money behind them. ?1

:04:29.:04:36.

billion. Some of that they had gained themselves by their

:04:37.:04:43.

successors. Selling off antiquities. A lot of this stuff has the backing

:04:44.:04:49.

of Saudi Arabia. There's a lot of that going on. No pressure seems to

:04:50.:04:58.

be put on them. It comes partly from Syria. Partly caused by the failure

:04:59.:05:07.

of the Nouri al`Maliki government. People don't recognise the borders.

:05:08.:05:11.

That's the point about their organisation. It's a new country

:05:12.:05:17.

they are trying to form. I think our intelligence services have some

:05:18.:05:23.

questions to ask. It's a bit too easy to blame them. Britain is the

:05:24.:05:33.

country my son has betrayed in the Guardian. Video urging Westerners to

:05:34.:05:42.

join him in the fight in Syria. His father lives in Cardiff and we heard

:05:43.:05:51.

the shock in his voice. He had his sons passport but they got a new

:05:52.:05:54.

passport. We've heard the stress in his mother 's voice when she was

:05:55.:05:59.

interviewed. No idea that this was where they were heading.

:06:00.:06:06.

Unfortunately this is a story we haven't heard in this terms, but

:06:07.:06:11.

police have been saying for some time that some people have gone over

:06:12.:06:16.

there and their families go to the police saying please help us to get

:06:17.:06:23.

our sons back. That's the problem. Some of these men are 16, 17 and 18.

:06:24.:06:29.

Old enough to do their own thing. Parents can't always control them.

:06:30.:06:36.

That's the interesting thing. Some of these people are

:06:37.:06:43.

third`generation. In spite of having difficult times when they settled

:06:44.:06:46.

they have a deep attachment to this country. The father said I came here

:06:47.:06:51.

as an orphan and I feel close to this country. Something has happened

:06:52.:06:55.

to this third`generation or they are being influenced in ways may be

:06:56.:07:01.

through the Internet or wherever, even the parents don't recognise.

:07:02.:07:10.

Possibly the influence of the Internet but there has been some

:07:11.:07:12.

radicalisation taking place in Cardiff. The police and MI5 think

:07:13.:07:24.

it's not just the Internet but there are also facilitators. Some very

:07:25.:07:35.

smart people are getting caught up in this. Brainwashing is what it is.

:07:36.:07:41.

They are highly intelligent, a lot of them. These two young men, as

:07:42.:07:52.

we've seen they've had great opportunities. One of them got a

:07:53.:07:59.

place at medical school. They were not failures. They had been seduced

:08:00.:08:06.

by this ideology. I can't understand at. A warning of a split with the

:08:07.:08:14.

EU. Duncan Smith raises the stakes in the row over the choice of EU

:08:15.:08:20.

president. David Cameron is not keen on this man. He hasn't endeared

:08:21.:08:37.

himself to the media. Iain Duncan Smith says the idea of us staying is

:08:38.:08:42.

unlikely if Jean`Claude Juncker gets the job. They can't just leave. It

:08:43.:08:48.

seems quite peculiar thick Iain Duncan Smith to say this. This is a

:08:49.:09:00.

club of many nations and Britain can't dictate. He has a point. There

:09:01.:09:05.

is an argument that it doesn't really matter who's in charge.

:09:06.:09:10.

Whoever it is will have a similar type of perspective. Jean`Claude

:09:11.:09:15.

Juncker has been built up into this bogeyman. He has been at the centre

:09:16.:09:23.

of this. He believes in Europe. An ever closer union which is something

:09:24.:09:28.

we don't believe in in general. If our government is trying to say

:09:29.:09:37.

this. There was a minority saying we don't like the way things are going

:09:38.:09:43.

and somebody who's been at the centre of the European project in

:09:44.:09:47.

such a central way. I think we should make Nigel Farage. That's

:09:48.:09:55.

what we should be fighting for. Keep him away from the general election

:09:56.:10:04.

next year. Andy Murray, I'm ready to wow you all over again. Promises,

:10:05.:10:15.

promises. Wouldn't it be marvellous if he does it again? He managed to

:10:16.:10:21.

live with the pressure last year. A great success. He could relieve all

:10:22.:10:29.

of the football boom. It will be a tough battle for him. He seems to be

:10:30.:10:40.

handling better since his last victory. We are more forgiving. It's

:10:41.:10:53.

a British attitude. We want him to be ruthless. Let's move back to the

:10:54.:11:02.

Daily Telegraph. Retirement, give it up and train as a teacher.

:11:03.:11:06.

Pensioners will be encouraged to retrain as teachers, particularly if

:11:07.:11:10.

they have sciences and engineering are specialities. I wonder how

:11:11.:11:22.

appealing this will be. I love the idea. Sometimes I think his ideas

:11:23.:11:30.

are good. Study on! Credit where it's due. ` steady on. So many of us

:11:31.:11:38.

are living longer. We can't imagine giving up altogether. It's a

:11:39.:11:47.

horrible thing, waiting to die. The one thing in this country that we

:11:48.:11:52.

need is more intergenerational linkups. It happens within veteran

:11:53.:12:10.

soldiers talking to young people. It's good if people want to do it

:12:11.:12:13.

but the nu tea are threatening to strike. The school retirement age

:12:14.:12:21.

will rise to 67. Not really feasible. Conflicting problems.

:12:22.:12:27.

People don't have enough money for retirement so they are told to work

:12:28.:12:34.

for longer but can they hang onto their jobs? I think it's a very good

:12:35.:12:39.

idea if want to do it. In certain subjects there is a shortage of

:12:40.:12:44.

teachers. Maybe some of them want respite from looking after their

:12:45.:12:50.

grandchildren. Get paid for it. Instead of being unpaid help. We

:12:51.:13:01.

were well behaved. Whether it can continue at 11:25pm we will wait and

:13:02.:13:08.

see. We will be back them. Stay with us. More on the warning from the

:13:09.:13:15.

UK's most senior counterterrorism police officer on the threat of

:13:16.:13:18.

fighters returning to Britain from Syria. Please buy a newspaper

:13:19.:13:24.

tomorrow because we won't have anything to talk about if you don't.

:13:25.:13:36.

A way of hearing gunfire in the most concealed of places. I'm all ears.
