26/06/2014 The Papers

of England has outlined ways to call some parts of the UK housing market.

There will be new affordability tests on mortgages and limits on

loans. Hallow and Wellcome for our

lookahead what the papers will bring us tomorrow. Joining us this evening

is the political commentator Joe Phillips and the Guardian columnist.

Thank you for joining us. Let's whip through some of the front pages. In

the Daily Express, a routine smear test could tell by the women are at

risk from developing breast cancer. EU leaders are questioning the

lifestyle of the man expected to be the next European Commission

president, Jean`Claude Juncker. The Metro leaves on the abuse by Jimmy

Savile. The Guardian also focuses on Jimmy Savile and questions over who

was responsible for allowing him access to NHS hospitals. In the

times, it says the population in Britain is the fastest`growing in

the European Union. The financial Times focuses on the allegations

facing Barclays macro finally, this is the Independent which says that

Britain is in the midst of a green energy revolution. Good evening to

you both. A very tough read for many readers of newspapers tomorrow. It

does feature on the front pages, such as the Guardian. The headline,

Jimmy Savile, rain of abuse across the NHS exposed. Romance looking at

what we have learned today from the investigation. `` very much looking.

It does take it forward. What we know has been catalogued and

reported it in detail in many of the papers. It is also... This is

reflecting on the political angle. Obviously, Jeremy Hunt, the Health

Secretary, made the statement in the House of Commons in the afternoon.

There is a sense about looking for responsibility. That is the question

that a lot of people are asking. How could this have happened? Who was to

blame? In a way, that has just been answered in the clip you have just

shown. What is interesting is that if we know Currie, who was the

minister in charge of Gary Medel out, and Jimmy Savile was accused of

a lot of incidents at Broadmoor, she is quoted in the Guardian saying, I

wish we had never seen hide nor hair of him will stop `` of him. There is

also an independent enquiry being called by the Labour Party. Ken

Clarke was Health Secretary at the time. I am not sure there is a lot

to be gained by trying to score political points. This very much

refers to the BBC programme, Panorama. They got access to

paperwork at the time as well. Surely lessons can be learned. Of

course they can. It is bigger than trying to say it was this government

or that government all this political party or that political

party. This is only the front page. A lot more coverage inside. There

are police and other people involved as well. I am not defending

politicians. Let's not use it because it is real stories about

real people who have suffered really badly. Let's not turn it into

political football. What Jeremy Hunt said in the House of Commons today,

if it tells us anything, this is about people who are victims of

abuse is not being listened to and not being felt that they would be

believed. I kind of belief you. It should not become a party political

battle but I think politics should obviously become part of it. People

will want to know how the political structure has allowed this to

happen. That is one of the reasons. They will want to know the children

are safe. Of course they do. They also want to know the institutions

will keep their children safe. Here, we are focusing on Edwina Currie,

who signed off on the ability of Jimmy Savile to be in these

hospitals. I think people will want a level of accountability, not least

because what we know and what is coming up is so gruesome that people

feel they need to tribute blame. That might not be a good thing. They

also want to make sure there are mechanisms in place to make sure

this will not happen again. Inevitably, there will be

repercussions individuals and we will need to find out who did what

along the line. You do not think this is the end of it. Absolutely

not. I think we will have to investigate further. We must be

careful about how we do it. There have been a lot of changes already.

There have. The details of the story today are so gruesome it is a bit of

a challenge for newspapers to work out how to deal with it. Let's have

a look at the Metro, just to pick up on that. The headline is pretty

stark. The Jimmy Savile sex files. DJ abuse children says the NHS.

Papers like the Metro are by a lot of people. They are left on trains

as well. It is a difficult story. Do you think it has been tackled

sensitively? Not as sensitively as it could have been. That is the

point. It is very difficult for newspapers to compete with online,

instant stuff. I do worry, and I'm not saying he should `` kids should

be wrapped in cop walks and protected from terrible things but

the Metro lies around, discarded on buses and trains across the country.

Your son or daughter is going to school tomorrow will pick it up.

There is a bit too much detail. This is what editing is all about.

Editors and picture editors had to decide every day which picture they

use, whether they use a very gruesome picture whether they have a

less gruesome picture, whether they crop something so it is not quite so

within the copy as well. The problem is that the story here is the

detail. We know the outline of the sort of thing that Jimmy Savile was

up to. Here it is a detail. It is doubly difficult when they are

deciding what to put into the newspaper when the stories about the

detail of it. How much detail do you run? A lot of kids will see the news

on television and see it in magazines and newspapers,

particularly in papers like the Metro. That is a good thing. You

want your children to be aware of the dangers. You want your children

to know it is an issue in society. There is also the sense of, it is

the balance that has ever been that, with editors on radio and

television. How do you tell a story with not sensationalising it of

terrifyingly quits out of you? Programmes like news and do tackle

issues like that but it is how. I have not seen new sound since John

Craven was doing it but that is another story. It would be

interesting to note how they cover it. As you said, they covered

Michael Jackson. Yes, it did cover Michael Jackson. The Daily Telegraph

leads on a very different story. It was looking at the European Union

and the goings`on in Brussels. It does not look like they are all

falling out with each other, they are watching poppies being dropped.

David Cameron alone and isolated in Brussels over his stand over

Jean`Claude Juncker. It sounds like he wants to be. I think the look

that Angela Merkel was giving him, if looks could kill, he would not be

standing up straight. I thought, this is surely a joke. Is this

absolutely the last ditch attempt that David Cameron is trying to

discredit Jean`Claude Juncker? He has put himself in a corner. He is

isolated. Whether or not Jean`Claude Juncker 's drinking is a problem.

Apparently he has cognac for breakfast. That was not unknown for

Churchill to have a drink before sunset. Is that the best they can

come up with? Why has he put himself into this unnecessary corner and is

actually looking a little bit ` and he has not had a good week `

isolated. I'd our political editor `` our political editor said, there

is a much wider picture about this. If he thinks Jean`Claude Juncker is

not the right man, how has he gone about trying to stop him? Given the

verdict on the EU that people pass at the last election, maybe he is

not the right man. We hear that privately leaders in other countries

think about. Then you come to the second issue. How did David Cameron

go about trying to persuade them? There are chickens coming home to

roost. It seems as if he does not have the relationship with the other

EU leaders that would allow him to make a perfectly `` a perfectly

reasonable point. I tag are you saying he is looking weak? If you

detach yourself from Europe and how it really works, you need to engage

with Europe. You cannot do it. That is what has happened. Dangerous

times. We are going to stay with the Daily Telegraph. We are going to

stay with the Daily Telegraph and rather exciting news, particularly

for women. Cancer in general, women are offered hope of a blood test

that can predict the risk of breast cancer. There is some real meat to

this story. This research has been done At University College in

London. What they have done is identified the DNA, as you say, the

genetic likelihood of breast cancer, and they think they can develop

within the next five years or so, a pretty simple blood test that could

determine whether you are likely to get it. And whether you are likely

to die from it. The severity of it. That is really important and there

is very much a lot of publicity around Angelina Jolie, who decided

to have a double mastectomy. That is something that people often talk

about. This is a good news story. The Daily Express is also covering

it. It's about striking the right

emphasis and making sure you are not running too far ahead of what the

research actually says, and especially something like this, it

really is important that we don't make a cure`all for these things

seem more hopeful than it really is. It is a job for editors. The Daily

Express obviously runs a lot of health stories on its front pages

but it has a responsibility to think carefully. We have got enough time

to look at the times. It probably won't surprise many people that has

been put down to immigration, but also increased birth rates as well.

It is 64 million people, so we are the second most populist in Europe

after Germany. The annual increase is just under 500,000. But it is

immigration, births, what does it tell you? We are a very overcrowded,

little island. With immigration, that causes higher birth rates, but

this will be interesting politically as well because the government have

been quite anti immigration intone, but now they know they will not meet

their caps, they will probably have to sing a much kinder chin about

immigration and maybe there are positive effects.
