Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers | :00:14. | :00:15. | |
With me are Simon Watkins, City Editor of the Mail on Sunday, and | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
The Telegraph leads with potential new laws to tackle | :00:21. | :00:30. | |
Their picture story is of the BBC presenter Victoria Derbyshire, who's | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
leaving Radio 5 Live along with fellow presenter Shelagh Fogarty. | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
Both will be replaced by men, despite the Director General | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
of the BBC saying he wanted more women on the air. | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
The Metro also leads with the revenge porn story. | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
That's alongside a celebratory picture | :00:51. | :00:51. | |
of the unseeded Australian who beat Nadal at Wimbledon this evening. | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
Nadal crashing out of Wimbledon is also the main | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
Nadal is twinned with former champion Maria Sharapova, | :00:59. | :01:03. | |
Their main story is a call from a leading doctor for a change | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
in the law to help end the lives of terminally ill patients without | :01:11. | :01:15. | |
are no risk to health " is the Express's headline on the | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
cholesterol`lowering drug, that's according to health experts. | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
The FT leads with what looks like good news, | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
with sterling hitting a six`year high against the dollar ` although | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
it could mean the Bank of England becoming the first major central | :01:30. | :01:32. | |
Let us begin. We are going to begin with the Daily Telegraph. | :01:33. | :01:51. | |
They have a piece about how there is a new law that could come in to | :01:52. | :01:58. | |
tackle this idea of revenge pawn. I think it is another example of the | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
law playing catch up with what is going on on the Internet. There are | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
websites dedicated to revenge pornography. If you have an | :02:10. | :02:11. | |
acrimonious break`up with your partner, you can post pictures of | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
you in more happy days doing whatever. Images taken in happier | :02:16. | :02:31. | |
times and then used as a weapon. It is surprisingly this does not | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
already contravene some law. Obviously the feeling is the law is | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
not being used, and maybe the solution is to pinpoint a specific | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
offence. Have there been cases where they | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
have been able to get a conviction? The piece is suggesting there has | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
been a spate of suicides on the back of this. They mention a particular | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
incident with a young woman in `` who was working in Abu Dhabi, and | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
she feared her ex`boyfriend was going to post pornographic `` | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
pornographic pictures. She feared for her safety and her job and she | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
sadly took her own life. An extension of the bullying we have | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
heard a lot about online. Yes, and as I say I think there have been | :03:28. | :03:34. | |
efforts to prosecute over certain types of harassment, and stalking | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
laws have been used in some cases, although obviously this particular | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
offence, which for those who are victims is particularly upsetting, | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
is not getting the attention it seems. | :03:48. | :03:57. | |
The other story is about Isis, `` you can now save more. What have the | :03:58. | :04:07. | |
banks done? The rates are not very good. The rates have been tripped `` | :04:08. | :04:17. | |
trimmed back. We have historically low interest rates. And this to have | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
come back even further. And that is the Budget. | :04:23. | :04:31. | |
`` and that is after the Budget. But it always feels that you are given | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
good news on the one hand and the banks always seem to find another | :04:37. | :04:38. | |
way to clobber you behind the scenes. | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
Have they given any possible reason? The bank stake in deposits | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
to lend them out, and if they do not, `` if they do not want to lend | :04:52. | :05:04. | |
out, they do not need deposits in. There is a bigger economic picture. | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
One of the reasons interest rates are at a historic low, one of the | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
reasons low interest rates work to stimulate the economy is that it | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
encourages people to spend rather than to save. So in some ways it is | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
part of the solution to our current economic situation. We have had low | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
interest rates encouraging people to spend... If you do not want to | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
spend, that is unfortunate. We think on the one hand we can put more | :05:35. | :05:41. | |
money in, tax`free saving, so we put money aside to do that, then we | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
realise we are no better off. And lots of people who have retired, | :05:46. | :05:52. | |
their income is the interest on their savings. | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
We can take a look at the Guardian. The picture of the shot at Wimbledon | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
today. But let us that about the main story, top doctors `` top | :06:06. | :06:11. | |
Doctor's assisted `` assisted dying coal. He is making a lot of points. | :06:12. | :06:21. | |
He is saying doctors should be able to help terminally ill patients to | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
take their own life. Last week we heard in the Supreme Court that the | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
bid to have the ban on assisted dying was not upheld, so he put the | :06:31. | :06:37. | |
issue back on the agenda. It is very emotive, and I think unless this is | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
something that personally affects you, you do not really know what it | :06:42. | :06:45. | |
is like. It is a hard thing to judge. If it is brought in there are | :06:46. | :06:56. | |
fears that the law might be abused, to get people's savings or cash in | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
on life insurance. But when you are personally affected by this you see | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
a different side. But it is a very hard thing to roll on. The thing | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
some people find hard is that you give prior approval to somebody to | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
help somebody die effectively. Plenty of people can accept that | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
there are circumstances in which that is the morally compassionate | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
thing to do. Legally sanctioning it in advance is a line I think some | :07:31. | :07:35. | |
people will find hard to deal with. This is an issue that is good to be | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
debated in the House of Lords next month. | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
Talking about compassion, he is talking about the need for the | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
equivalent of midwives to sort of nice people through their final | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
days. When you put it like that, these will be specific people who | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
will help people with palliative care and be given that legal... | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
The manner of death, which we all have to face at some point, I think | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
we do not handle it very well as a society. We do not have mechanisms. | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
The medical profession are there to keep people alive rather than help | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
it would die, and I think it is something that perhaps | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
understandably not a lot of thought has gone into it. | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
There are other points, he is talking about a four`day working | :08:29. | :08:36. | |
week. Excellent idea! What the is also the serious issue of mental | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
health. `` but there is. These are things we do not pay enough | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
attention to. I think he is spot on on that one. | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
The other top story is quite interesting, they have got access to | :08:57. | :09:04. | |
the Tory party guest list at their main fundraising event of the year. | :09:05. | :09:14. | |
Only a year late but nonetheless! What do we learn from who was there | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
last year? These tables for the privilege of sitting next to David | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
Cameron, Theresa May, Boris Johnson, it was ?12,000 to sort of | :09:27. | :09:38. | |
Rob shoulders. `` Rob. The suggestion is that it was sort of | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
clouded in secrecy, they are quite reluctant to release the names of | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
these guests, and I think it just has generalists asking more | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
questions. `` journalists. Underlying this is the whole | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
question of political funding and how it comes forward. Both Labour | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
and the Tories frequently get into trouble as to where the funding | :10:05. | :10:10. | |
comes from, whether it is big business, billionaires, unions. On | :10:11. | :10:15. | |
the other hand the other option of taxpayer funding of political | :10:16. | :10:18. | |
parties is probably equally unpalatable. | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
Difficult to see how much they make from these types of events, although | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
I think it does say that they took ?1.1 million in the week following | :10:28. | :10:37. | |
that particular event. There will be a lot of entertaining tomorrow | :10:38. | :10:40. | |
evening, where ever it is this year. `` wherever. | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
The Financial Times, this sounds like good news. It is not that | :10:45. | :10:52. | |
straightforward. The strong pound is good if we are going on holiday. The | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
serious risk is that a strong pound makes exports in this country will | :10:59. | :11:03. | |
`` more expensive overseas, makes it harder for British manufacturers to | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
export their goods abroad, and getting growth and exports up is a | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
critical part of the next phase of the economic recovery. So a strong | :11:11. | :11:20. | |
pound is not... Unless you're going on holiday. | :11:21. | :11:30. | |
Let us top about our final story. What happened at Wimbledon today? | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
Lots of people have been watching that. And deep shock. | :11:34. | :11:40. | |
What is going on? Serena Williams is out, Maria Sharapova, now today, one | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
of the favourites, Rafa Nadal was beaten by this completely unknown | :11:46. | :11:56. | |
19`year`old Australian unseeded guy. This is the beauty of Wimbledon, as | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
much as we have our favourites and we want them to do well, Wimbledon | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
is about moments like this where people come from nowhere and explode | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
onto the scene. Andy Murray has hailed him as a future date of the | :12:10. | :12:20. | |
sport. `` great. It is what Wimbledon's all about. If the | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
seeding was actually the order in which the tournament ended, it would | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
be terribly dull. The whole point is that seeding gets mixed up. | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
Who do you reckon Tom then? Murray is still in there. I think there is | :12:35. | :12:41. | |
a quote from him in one of the papers about this amazing young | :12:42. | :12:47. | |
Australian saying, he is a future champion but presumably Andy Murray | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
is hoping not this year. More from you a little later. | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
That is it for us from the moment `` from us for the moment. Sport coming | :12:57. | :12:57. | |
up. It's been a day of upsets | :12:58. | :13:20. | |
at Wimbledon. Nadal follows Sharapova out | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
at the forth round stage. | :13:26. | :13:28. |
