:00:18. > :00:30.Welcome to look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us. Raring

:00:31. > :00:36.to go to night. Good to have you both here. Tomorrow's front pages.

:00:37. > :00:46.The Daily Mail has the jailing of Rolf Harris. The Western mail

:00:47. > :00:50.pictures the disgraced star. The tension was too lenient according to

:00:51. > :00:55.child protection campaigners but notes he could be free in three

:00:56. > :00:59.years. The Independent says a major Tory donor is the favourite take

:01:00. > :01:05.over the schools watchdog the critics say he could face a conflict

:01:06. > :01:10.of interests because he a chain of academies. Statins could be used to

:01:11. > :01:13.prevent breast cancer. The Times says the Prime Minister has secretly

:01:14. > :01:21.agreed to transfer more policing powers to the TEU. Andy Coulson is

:01:22. > :01:25.pictured on the Guardian. He was sentenced 18 months in jail for

:01:26. > :01:27.conspiracy to hack phones. Let's begin with a story that has

:01:28. > :01:34.dominated most of the bulletins today, the sentencing of Rolf

:01:35. > :01:41.Harris, the disgraced entertainer. On the front pages of quite a few

:01:42. > :01:47.papers. The Daily Mail. Smoking is a final insult to his victims. A judge

:01:48. > :01:53.savages him as he shows no remorse. As we look back at what went on in

:01:54. > :02:00.court, singing songs and describing his career, it seems extraordinary.

:02:01. > :02:06.It does. What really stands out for me, if he was smirking in court, is

:02:07. > :02:13.the voice of the victims. I don't want to paraphrase it. One said it

:02:14. > :02:16.made me feel dirty, grubby and disgusting and another said he stole

:02:17. > :02:23.her innocence. That's what we've got to remember. Lives have been

:02:24. > :02:25.damaged. I know we will talk about the sentencing because I think a lot

:02:26. > :02:34.of people were quite shocked at that. We will talk about that in a

:02:35. > :02:44.moment. What has come out when some of them speak, some of them have so

:02:45. > :02:47.wanted to have their story told and believed. The sentence didn't really

:02:48. > :02:52.matter to them, it was being believed publicly and having their

:02:53. > :02:57.day in court. Absolutely. This season that seems to be going on of

:02:58. > :03:01.these trials from the past, if anything good has come out of that

:03:02. > :03:05.it's been the absolute recognition that the victims are not the ones

:03:06. > :03:12.who are the bearers of shame and guilt in anyway. The vast majority

:03:13. > :03:17.of people who've suffered abuse have been ` would not have been abused by

:03:18. > :03:24.household names. Hopefully this could encourage more people to step

:03:25. > :03:30.forward and throw away the last scintilla of stigma. Even though a

:03:31. > :03:36.long time has passed it doesn't mean that it's impossible to secure a

:03:37. > :03:41.conviction. That's what I've been encouraged by. If you commit a crime

:03:42. > :03:49.justice will find you. We will come after you. That's another thing that

:03:50. > :03:53.has stuck with me. Hopefully it is a deterrent as well as providing

:03:54. > :04:01.justice. We've talked about this a lot over many trials. Time seemed to

:04:02. > :04:06.have changed. This is probably leading as nicely into the headline

:04:07. > :04:10.for the Daily Mail. Five years in jail but could he be jailed for

:04:11. > :04:15.longer. A sickening stash of child porn is revealed. Images of child

:04:16. > :04:25.abuse, he will be prosecuted because it's not in the public interest.

:04:26. > :04:28.Because this is an historical set of crimes the law as it stood in those

:04:29. > :04:36.days is what applied. It's not the law that stands today which might

:04:37. > :04:46.account for the sentence. I suppose it shows that people say the world

:04:47. > :04:50.is getting worse, but thanks goodness standards have changed in

:04:51. > :04:54.this case. It says something about the times we were living in. You

:04:55. > :05:04.think about that sentence, five years and nine months. One year plus

:05:05. > :05:09.a month each victim. If he gets out in three years it's less than a

:05:10. > :05:12.year. It's quite shocking and the Attorney General should look at this

:05:13. > :05:20.sentence. It's being referred already. Let's move on to the

:05:21. > :05:26.Independent. It's one of the few papers that does not have Rolf

:05:27. > :05:35.Harris on its front page. It has the hacking corporate. This is the

:05:36. > :05:41.sentencing. Andy Coulson got 18 months. That's their main picture

:05:42. > :05:47.story. The main story on the Independent is an outcry as a Tory

:05:48. > :05:50.donor is put in charge of Ofsted. David Ross has made a lot of money

:05:51. > :05:55.through his carphone warehouse business. Donating money to the

:05:56. > :06:02.Conservatives. He might be up for the job, we don't know for certain.

:06:03. > :06:06.It is very interesting. One of the rationales is that they were the can

:06:07. > :06:20.for somebody with great business experience. It shows what an

:06:21. > :06:27.inspector would be looking for. Michael Gove seems to be producing

:06:28. > :06:33.no end of sensations and discussions wherever he goes. It's a shocker of

:06:34. > :06:37.a story. We're talking about standards in our children's

:06:38. > :06:43.education. Who do you have chairing it, and entrepreneur. What is their

:06:44. > :06:50.experience level? There's a clear conflict of interest if he gets this

:06:51. > :06:54.job because he has helped fund 25 academies. What happens when Ofsted

:06:55. > :07:01.goes into one his academies. Do they get an outstanding straightaway?

:07:02. > :07:10.Timmy lowers the role of Ofsted. It's not a political football. ` to

:07:11. > :07:16.me it lowers. Impartiality. This is a statement in one of the newspaper

:07:17. > :07:21.articles. The recruitment process for the new chair of Ofsted is

:07:22. > :07:25.ongoing. And in the Linacre independent panel will decide who

:07:26. > :07:29.was short listed. They will recommend to ministers a list of

:07:30. > :07:35.suitable candidates. There are quite a few hurdles and articles like this

:07:36. > :07:39.may make them think twice. Absolutely. This article points out

:07:40. > :07:51.that there is the possibility of more coalition rapture and is. `

:07:52. > :07:58.ruptures. You do wonder. If this gentleman has a passion for the

:07:59. > :08:02.role. Passion is not enough. We need the right person. I remember the

:08:03. > :08:08.last time I was on here we were talking about children's reading

:08:09. > :08:13.levels. We are on a real trajectory. We need the right

:08:14. > :08:17.person. I wonder why a multimillionaire would choose to

:08:18. > :08:30.jump into this massive stew of hot potatoes. A move to tighten terror

:08:31. > :08:34.laws in light of the Lee Rigby killing. Civil liberties groups are

:08:35. > :08:37.concerned over a report that next week might be used to press for

:08:38. > :08:43.emergency anti`terrorist legislation. The article suggests

:08:44. > :08:47.that it could take emergency legislation to prevent potential

:08:48. > :08:50.extremists from travelling to Syria and surely this is about the

:08:51. > :08:53.surveillance of people when they are back here in a country rather than

:08:54. > :09:05.stopping them from going to Syria in the first place. It's not clear what

:09:06. > :09:09.they it was a terrible murder. They might be using that to think about

:09:10. > :09:16.putting in emergency legislation. I don't think it's the right thing to

:09:17. > :09:23.do. There's a lot more grassroots work that can be done. Once you

:09:24. > :09:28.start where do you stop? We always talk about UK Muslims. We are

:09:29. > :09:32.talking about a huge range of people from a huge range of cultural

:09:33. > :09:39.backgrounds and national backgrounds. We need to be careful.

:09:40. > :09:45.It has to be done sensitively. Following the murder of Lee would

:09:46. > :09:52.there were concerns that the security services had lost sight of

:09:53. > :09:56.the two men. That is mentioned here. Is it a failure of surveillance and

:09:57. > :10:03.they weren't able to do that or is it because they weren't able to keep

:10:04. > :10:08.track of people? Will we bring in restrictions on Civil Liberties to

:10:09. > :10:17.deal with a bureaucratic mess up? How many people do you keep track

:10:18. > :10:23.of? You have to keep track of so many people. I've been to Syria.

:10:24. > :10:28.Would I have come back... With people have been watching me. You

:10:29. > :10:35.may be under surveillance. Perhaps you wouldn't know it. Whether you

:10:36. > :10:40.stop? I don't mind being under surveillance if it is to eliminate

:10:41. > :10:45.me from a list. I think it's a dangerous road to go down. If they

:10:46. > :11:01.do go down it a lot of thought needs to go into at. No emergency powers?

:11:02. > :11:12.The level of debate within Islam at the moment compares to Reformation

:11:13. > :11:17.Europe, dozens of groups, nations, that will not be tackled simply by

:11:18. > :11:24.an attack. Let's look at the Daily Mirror. They are saying that statins

:11:25. > :11:27.could invent breast cancer. Women with high cholesterol are at

:11:28. > :11:32.greatest risk of the disease. Here they are on the front of the Mirror.

:11:33. > :11:38.We don't know we huge amount about the study. It seems that statins can

:11:39. > :11:43.do so many wonderful things. They can. But I am a person who will go

:11:44. > :11:47.for natural options myself, rather than take drugs. I would worry about

:11:48. > :11:52.side effects. Sometimes there might be side effects and they are still

:11:53. > :11:57.not quite sure what the results would be, in terms of helping women

:11:58. > :12:02.with breast cancer. Sure, it can help with cholesterol levels, but

:12:03. > :12:07.what does that mean? More research needs to be done. Often, we jump on

:12:08. > :12:13.these things and it is years from a cure. It is. It is fascinating to

:12:14. > :12:19.see health on the front pages. On a crowded news agenda, a story like

:12:20. > :12:25.this cuts through to relatives and family and you think... Very

:12:26. > :12:30.quickly, we will look at the Daily Telegraph. There is a commentator

:12:31. > :12:48.speaking to the camera. Judging by their tiny waistlines, it

:12:49. > :13:02.could not be any of them. That visit for the Papers this hour. We will be

:13:03. > :13:07.back at 25 past 11. Stay with us on BBC News. At 11pm, disgraced

:13:08. > :13:11.entertainer Rolf Harris is beginning his sentence. Coming up next, sports

:13:12. > :13:23.day. Hello and welcome to Sportsday ` I'm

:13:24. > :13:37.James Pearce. Will the party continued? Can Brazil

:13:38. > :13:46.hold off for a place in the semifinals? Germany beat France. The
