of Germany versus Nigeria. `` Algeria. Luis Suarez has apologised | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
to Giorgio Chiellini for biting him to stop we will tell you in 15 | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
minutes. Hello, and welcome to | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
our look ahead to what the papers With me are Eleanor Mills, | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
Editorial Director of The Sunday Times and Owen Jones, Columnist | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
for The Independent and author. Let's have a look at the front | :00:21. | :00:30. | |
pages. We will start with that police mugshot of Rolf Harris | :00:31. | :00:34. | |
dominating the front page of the Telegraph. The entertainer was found | :00:35. | :00:38. | |
guilty of 12 charges of indecently assaulting four girls. Metro says | :00:39. | :00:43. | |
some of the crimes took place while he was fronting a campaign to raise | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
awareness about child abuse. The Guardian shows a picture there of Mr | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
Harris leaving court with his family after hearing the guilty verdicts. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
The express also carries that picture, that police picture of the | :00:57. | :01:02. | |
entertainer Rolf Harris. That is also the front page of the Daily | :01:03. | :01:08. | |
Mail. The Financial Times doing a different story. It is talking about | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
BNP Paribas facing pay cuts for its staff after paying a fine of $9 | :01:16. | :01:20. | |
billion for breaking sanctions laws. We will start with the Daily Mail. | :01:21. | :01:25. | |
Rolf Harris, of course, is on the front page of most of the papers. | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
For 50 years, he was the face of wholesome only TV. Now we know the | :01:31. | :01:32. | |
truth. Rolf Harris is a predator truth. Rolf Harris is a predator who | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
duped us all. I grew up with him. He was a familiar face on TV. He is a | :01:38. | :01:45. | |
criminal now. I think it is a really strange day, because with all of the | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
Jimmy Savile staff, there was a sense it seemed a bit weird. But | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
Rolf Harris, he was someone that keeps really loved. I remember Have | :01:53. | :02:02. | |
You Guessed What It Is Yet? I think everybody feels horrendous for the | :02:03. | :02:06. | |
victims. I think everybody feels a sense of eight told about Rolf | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
Harris, and details are really gritty. He has been found guilty of | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
all 12 counts. The Telegraph as saying there are 13 more people have | :02:17. | :02:23. | |
already cold in. There may be 37 more people who have come forward. | :02:24. | :02:32. | |
There was this awful film of him singing a song about sexual abuse of | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
children which he fronted in 1985, and that is such a brazen either | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
hiding in plain sight or a kind of really weird omnipotence split | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
personality thing going on. I think it is awful. There was his wife and | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
daughter at the trial. The fact he was abusing these children while his | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
daughter was sleeping, that must be awful for his family. One of his | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
victims, that was the evidence brought before the jury. The fact | :03:03. | :03:07. | |
is, he probably reached the point, and this seemed to be what came out | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
of the prosecution segment today, it was almost as if he was getting away | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
with it for so long, he believed he could continue getting away with it | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
until the end of time. He was above the law. That is the parallel with | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
the likes of Jimmy Savile. That sense of being untouchable and using | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
their celebrity not just in order to gain access to people who they | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
horrifically abused but also to protect themselves from justice. | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
We're talking about victims as young as... Seven. The other disturbing | :03:38. | :03:45. | |
parallel is the use of his daughter almost to gain access to their | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
friends and molesting a friend in front of the daughter. The key point | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
in one of the clips you show before, this should encourage others to come | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
forward. No matter how influential all`powerful or well`respected, and | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
we all talk about how this man we do in his childhood. It was worth with | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
Jimmy Savile because he was so widely suspected, yet nothing was | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
done. `` it was worse. We know every year, 400,000 women are sexually | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
assaulted. 80,000 direct. A small proportion of those ever come to | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
trial and come to justice. If any good comes out of this, this will | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
encourage other people to come forward and be believed to be able | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
to have the confidence to be supported as well. This is a day | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
of... We were looking before it victim of one of the victims. It is | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
young age to be abused like that. It will have a lasting damaging effect | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
on those people. They are survivors. They have survived a terrible | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
incident, but this is such an important day for them because it is | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
finding justice after feeling ignored and powerless at the hands | :05:02. | :05:04. | |
of this celebrity who got away with it. Long. One of his victims said | :05:05. | :05:11. | |
she contemplated suicide. Let's move the Guardian. National treasure, | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
paedophile, Harris. A reference to his place in society for up to 50 | :05:18. | :05:24. | |
years. He was a national treasure. He even painted the Queen. He had an | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
OBE. They said they would take away the fellowship. Also it looks like | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
he wait `` he may well die in jail. Papers are saying that it will be a | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
custodial sentence and a long one. It looks as though maybe there are | :05:43. | :05:46. | |
others as well. Going on to the point you were talking about about | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
this giving a voice to those victims who felt they did not have a voice | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
for such a long time, I was speaking to the former Director of Public | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
Prosecutions Keir Starmer who was saying this vindicates the notion in | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
our criminal justice system that suspects are named in these kinds of | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
trials. Even before a guilty verdict. People do come forward. | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
They knew was Rolf Harris. It is a key point to make. Before 1988, it | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
was anonymity for both sides. Margaret Thatcher APPLAUSE | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
Government, it was right for the government to change the law. | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
`` Margaret Thatcher APPLAUSE Government. | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
There are all of these false accusations. People in a sense are | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
the victims who are wrongly named. The real issue we have at the moment | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
is that most victims, most survivors of sexual assault or rape, to come | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
forward, don't end up justice, don't end up with those responsible being | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
taken to justice, and they are likely to do it again. We have this | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
sense of this was all in the past. Things are different then. White dig | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
into the past like this? But also that sense that all of these people | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
have been wrongly dragged to the courts. `` white dig into the past? | :07:05. | :07:11. | |
Seven people have finally got justice after being too long | :07:12. | :07:13. | |
protected because of their status. It should encourage all of those | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
hoping to come forward. Very briefly, a final word on this. Dave | :07:19. | :07:24. | |
Lee Travis found innocent of the charges. Freddie Starr as well. | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
There is this, and Keir Starmer pointed to this, there is a balance. | :07:30. | :07:36. | |
You have to look at the evidence. William Roache also got off. What | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
this shows is that the justices and does work. There was a lot of chat | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
beforehand that these cases were too historical. You could try them | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
because they were so long ago. What has been so compelling about Rolf | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
Harris's is that people have been saying the same thing. Same with Max | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
Clifford. What has been proved is that you absolutely can try this | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
case is fairly, and the ones where they are not fair, they won't work. | :08:03. | :08:06. | |
There is a sense that justice is being done and seen to be done and | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
that has to be a good thing for the victims, and no one should ever feel | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
they are above the law and will get away with it again. Let's hope not. | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
We will stay with the Guardian. We will go down to the bottom of the | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
front page. Israel says Hamas will pay for teenagers, those three | :08:24. | :08:25. | |
teenagers who have been found dead in Hebron. One cabinet member is | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
saying tonight that they should be a widespread operation to eradicate | :08:33. | :08:37. | |
Hamas. These are horrific criminal acts. Let's remember these three | :08:38. | :08:40. | |
names, because what happens now, they will be forgotten. Nothing will | :08:41. | :08:54. | |
ever be able to repair the horrific grief and misery that their parents | :08:55. | :08:57. | |
are now going through. These are crimes no one should underestimate | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
or downplay what has happened to these people. At the same time, five | :09:01. | :09:06. | |
Palestinians were also killed following the disappearances of | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
these teenagers. These were five Palestinians in the West Bank, and | :09:11. | :09:13. | |
others have been killed in air strikes in the Gaza Strip. These | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
also horrors and miserable tragedies which have ripped families apart. | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
The key point is this. These are treated as criminal acts, and | :09:23. | :09:27. | |
justice, these people responsible, they have to be brought to justice. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
They cannot have corrective punishment and responsibility | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
whereby other people as a result of another operation, well, this is | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
early happens because innocent have been killed, but we do know want a | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
disproportionate attack where many people on both sides die, and that | :09:47. | :09:54. | |
is the data at the moment. `` that is the danger at the moment. They | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
would argue to retaliate in some shape or form. But that will be | :10:00. | :10:04. | |
complicated. It is not as Hamas they are dealing with, but the more | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
moderate Fatah faction. As we know, Israel is an absolute pressure | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
cooker of all sorts of problems. What happened to these lawyers is | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
awful. They were coming back from their religious school. But what is | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
really terrifying is the prospect it raises of even more widespread | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
violence within Israel. The occupied territories are a source of | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
contention anyway. The fact that the president is blaming Hamas for the | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
murders and saying they will pay a heavy price, Hamas will pay, and the | :10:39. | :10:45. | |
economic ministers saying now is the time to act. The Times tomorrow is | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
saying there will be more shelling and military aides in Israel, and | :10:52. | :10:54. | |
the last thing anyone wants there is more bloodshed. It is terrible but | :10:55. | :10:58. | |
these poor kids were murdered, and that is awful. Whoever did it should | :10:59. | :11:04. | |
pay. It is the prospect of another mighty congregation `` conflagration | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
in that area. Given what is happening in Syria, we have had the | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
insurgents and outing themselves today. Life is a life. A death is a | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
death. A tragedy is a tragedy. We have had five Palestinians killed in | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
the West Bank in retaliatory raids following the disappearance of these | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
teenagers who have been so terribly and tragically killed. That ran | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
setup. We have had other incidents with deaths on both sides, but let's | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
make sure now that we do not have a situation where there is a huge | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
escalation and collective punishment is dealt out. | :11:48. | :12:03. | |
considering their options. Suarez, it was an accident, I am a little | :12:04. | :12:10. | |
bit sorry! He originally said he fell into the sky, just happening to | :12:11. | :12:20. | |
hit his shoulder blades. I am a mother of two kids, and you know | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
they have done something wrong, and they say they did not do it. The | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
whole world saw him do it, finally he said he had a few days to go | :12:28. | :12:36. | |
home, talk to his parents. We have all fallen over, and clamped down. A | :12:37. | :12:50. | |
zombie epidemic. You will be back in one hour's time, little bit shorter, | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
actually. Thank you for that. Stay with us, much more coming up at the | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
top of the hour. Including more fallout from that decision that Rolf | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
Harris is guilty of assaulting four women. Coming up now, the sport. | :13:10. | :13:33. | |
Welcome to Sports day, Germany cannot find a way past Algeria, | :13:34. | :13:37. |
