:00:00. > :00:00.Rory Michael Roy. I love highlights and we will see how Flintoff got on

:00:00. > :00:15.in his comeback. Hello and welcome to our look

:00:16. > :00:17.ahead to what the the papers With me are Jeremy Cliffe UK

:00:18. > :00:24.Political Correspondent of The Economist and Louise Court,

:00:25. > :00:29.Editor in Chief of Cosmopolitan. Tomorrow's front pages,

:00:30. > :00:40.starting with: The Financial Times features

:00:41. > :00:42.the problems at Burberry, after shareholders rejected a

:00:43. > :00:45.multi`million pound pay rise for the The Daily Telegraph also leads with

:00:46. > :00:48.Lord Carey's revised views The 'i' suggests that the

:00:49. > :00:53.Prime Minister will be looking to promote more women to the cabinet

:00:54. > :00:55.in the upcoming reshuffle. The Independent has a picture

:00:56. > :00:57.of a 9`year`old girl injured The Guardian leads with

:00:58. > :01:03.David Cameron's choices It also on the front page news

:01:04. > :01:27.that Amazon has asked permission Let's look at how the Daily Mail is

:01:28. > :01:36.covering this Lord Carey story. Lord Carey: I have changed my mind on the

:01:37. > :01:39.right to die. This puts him at odds with the line that the church of

:01:40. > :01:45.England is sticking to, which is that it opposes the right to die. It

:01:46. > :01:51.also puts him at odds with his own previous comments. He said he wasn't

:01:52. > :01:58.in line with the church's teachings in helping people to die, but he has

:01:59. > :02:04.changed his mind. This announcement comes shortly before his debate in

:02:05. > :02:10.the House of Lords. A very dramatic intervention. I wonder whether it

:02:11. > :02:18.might possibly change the course of the debate when it takes place. He

:02:19. > :02:23.said that by opposing reform, that'll have resonance for a lot of

:02:24. > :02:29.people who have nursed people through terminal illnesses. He is

:02:30. > :02:36.talking about advances in medical technology, he says it is the church

:02:37. > :02:39.'s job to have a message of hope. He worries that by keeping people alive

:02:40. > :02:47.when they are terminally ill that the church is supporting anguish and

:02:48. > :03:01.pain. He is clear that it is about people who are terminally ill, not

:03:02. > :03:09.people with a long`term condition. He was influenced by meeting Tony's

:03:10. > :03:14.Nicholinson. It's always interesting to watch how the church, or any

:03:15. > :03:17.religion, deal with issues of conscience and morality when their

:03:18. > :03:24.teachings are very clear about what they should feel. I suppose it

:03:25. > :03:33.depends on your definition of kill. Is it helping someone to die when

:03:34. > :03:38.they would otherwise, it is a conjugated theological debate, and I

:03:39. > :03:52.think one on which you will never get a unified view. There has been

:03:53. > :03:57.said that if this bill goes through there will need to be two doctors to

:03:58. > :04:02.verify that the person is dying anyway. As we know, with regard to

:04:03. > :04:07.suicide, at one time it was illegal to kill yourself. If you did kill

:04:08. > :04:17.yourself often you weren't allowed to be buried in consecrated ground.

:04:18. > :04:23.This is part of a long`term shift. We've seen it in other areas in the

:04:24. > :04:28.meaning of marriage. Can two people of the same`sex get married? I think

:04:29. > :04:37.this is another area that the church struggling to reconcile the wording

:04:38. > :04:45.of a stock `` doctrine with a modern society. There is the battle and

:04:46. > :04:52.moral conscience. If you bid by the bedside of somebody who is dying and

:04:53. > :04:56.Ince very ill `` and is very ill, it is a terrible thing to watch.

:04:57. > :05:03.Pressure could be put on people who are suffering, so there is a moral

:05:04. > :05:08.ambiguity there. I wonder if it is a generational thing? Do you notice

:05:09. > :05:17.from your readers if they have different views on assisted dying? I

:05:18. > :05:26.think young people, it is difficult to make a generalisation, but they

:05:27. > :05:35.are generally less against it. The people with a strong religious

:05:36. > :05:44.faith, it is a strong, in doctrine belief. And the ethics of it, if you

:05:45. > :05:48.set religion aside, whether you allow it. Just to have the

:05:49. > :05:52.guidelines in place so that they are watertight and can't be applied to

:05:53. > :06:04.somebody you isn't, as you say, terminally ill. Let's move on. In

:06:05. > :06:09.the FT. This is quite interesting. The article here begins with the

:06:10. > :06:14.unlikely question that could save your life. Next time a colleague

:06:15. > :06:21.offers you a lift home, ask him or her if he or she paid his or her

:06:22. > :06:25.electricity bill on time. It's an extraordinary idea. If you pay your

:06:26. > :06:34.bill on time and you are careful with your money, you are probably a

:06:35. > :06:42.safer bet to insure. I think it's quite obvious. If you are crazy and

:06:43. > :06:46.reckless and whatever. Probably you will do lots of other things that

:06:47. > :06:51.aren't very good behaviour. If you are quite cautious person then

:06:52. > :06:54.surely you are more likely to be a maverick driver. I think these

:06:55. > :06:58.things are already factored into calculations when you take a loan

:06:59. > :07:03.out. People should be used to the idea that their previous activities,

:07:04. > :07:05.their previous liability or proof of their previous liability gets looked

:07:06. > :07:10.at when they take out an insurance policy all when somebody invests

:07:11. > :07:19.trust in them in some way or another. The article goes on to

:07:20. > :07:22.quote Big Brother watch. The way companies go about collecting this

:07:23. > :07:25.information goes far beyond what customers expect. But expose any of

:07:26. > :07:29.us really have a grip on how much information is really out there

:07:30. > :07:35.about us. I think that is the point. While I think they are wrong to say

:07:36. > :07:38.that companies shouldn't be able to use this, consumers should have

:07:39. > :07:43.access to the same information themselves. I think the article

:07:44. > :07:48.draws attention to people who buy houses that are more prone to

:07:49. > :07:51.burglary, for example. Insurers get that information because they can

:07:52. > :07:55.crunch all sorts of data together and work out that a certain house is

:07:56. > :07:58.prone to burglary. A person who has put a lot of money down house does

:07:59. > :08:02.not know that. If the companies are going to have access to this then

:08:03. > :08:06.consumers should do. I think were all unaware of how much companies

:08:07. > :08:12.share data among themselves. It's all those little boxes that you take

:08:13. > :08:17.at the end of those questionnaires. Actually there is a lot of data that

:08:18. > :08:24.we say can go out there and the companies share, but they don't tell

:08:25. > :08:27.us. You only have to see when he to websites that there are personalised

:08:28. > :08:34.advert selections from companies you have brought forth from before.

:08:35. > :08:38.There are so much information. Let's look at the Independent. She was the

:08:39. > :08:44.most precious thing in the world to us, we had waited so long for her.

:08:45. > :08:52.There is a picture therefore a girl in intensive care. She was playing

:08:53. > :08:58.in her garden, this baby that her parents had waited so long to have

:08:59. > :09:04.after IVF treatment, we are looking here at once again a picture of a

:09:05. > :09:07.Palestinian child, but of course Israel feels that by sending its

:09:08. > :09:15.rockets in it is trying to protect its own children. There are

:09:16. > :09:22.statistics here that there are 103 dead, but no less than 7% of the 700

:09:23. > :09:29.injured are boys, girls or women. 70%. That is a huge amount. What's

:09:30. > :09:35.interesting about this story is that the conflicts you hear on militia,

:09:36. > :09:40.the weapons, but there are so many human faces full stop over the past

:09:41. > :09:47.three weeks there were the three teenage Israeli boys who were

:09:48. > :09:51.killed. There was the Arab teenager. There is such a human face of young

:09:52. > :09:58.people that have been brought to the fore in all of this. Its

:09:59. > :10:03.controversial what Benjamin Netanyahu said. His argument is that

:10:04. > :10:07.we are using missiles to protect our people. His argument is that the

:10:08. > :10:13.militants in the Gaza Strip are using people to protect their

:10:14. > :10:16.missiles. There we have, written large, is the differing view on how

:10:17. > :10:21.both sides are approaching this conflict. Yet Athere is a huge

:10:22. > :10:29.debate here over who the aggressor is. Stories and photos like this, as

:10:30. > :10:36.well as individual tragedies, are part of a bigger battle for public

:10:37. > :10:40.opinion. Both in Gaza and in Israel. The Israelis have also been

:10:41. > :10:43.releasing their own images and pictures and in some cases videos to

:10:44. > :10:46.try and show that they have not been targeting areas that in fact they

:10:47. > :11:01.have been trying to avoid civilians. There is an immense sort of, P R

:11:02. > :11:04.Waugh. `` PR war, going on. The blast came straight to our house and

:11:05. > :11:07.I saw my daughter lying in blood because she was playing in their

:11:08. > :11:12.garden. It wasn't even a direct hit on their home, the sheer force of

:11:13. > :11:16.this explosion was enough to cause this terrible damage to her. We

:11:17. > :11:19.don't even know whether she will make a full recovery. And they told

:11:20. > :11:24.her not to go far away from home because they thought she would be

:11:25. > :11:27.safe will stop the irony was she was in her grandparent's back garden.

:11:28. > :11:30.Apparently that's why a lot of children have been injured, because

:11:31. > :11:43.they are scared to leave their houses. And you just don't know how

:11:44. > :11:46.to put a stop to it. Although there is an offer of international

:11:47. > :11:55.mediation, it is buy that will be taken up just yet. As move on to the

:11:56. > :11:59.Guardian. Cameron has had quite a lot of criticism for not having many

:12:00. > :12:04.women in his Cabinet. He looks like he might be trying to correct that.

:12:05. > :12:14.It does need to be the right women. We recently did a survey, what was

:12:15. > :12:19.fascinating is all these young women that are desperate to vote in the

:12:20. > :12:26.next election have no faith whatsoever in politicians. They

:12:27. > :12:29.think they are sleazy, self serving, it's about egos, they don't feel

:12:30. > :12:35.they relate to their lives in anyway whatsoever. The things that young

:12:36. > :12:44.women and young people are worried about are things like there lack of

:12:45. > :12:48.money, housing, issues getting on the housing ladder. I think this is,

:12:49. > :12:57.they refer to people in the Cabinet as the old labs. With those

:12:58. > :13:02.perceptions change but Mark would people be any less likely to vote if

:13:03. > :13:05.there were women politicians in the Cabinet, who might be regarded as

:13:06. > :13:10.equally self`serving if that is how politicians are seen will stop is

:13:11. > :13:14.interesting, I would be interested to see what your readers think. A

:13:15. > :13:19.lot of the scandals involve men, don't they. We asked people who they

:13:20. > :13:26.are admired and they admired people like Margaret Thatcher, Angela

:13:27. > :13:31.Merkel, Hillary Clinton, much more than any male MPs or politicians in

:13:32. > :13:37.the UK. So you keep a close eye on the sort of thing, Jeremy, with your

:13:38. > :13:48.column. Who are the frontrunners amongst the women sued to get into

:13:49. > :14:06.the Cabinet? I think Nicky Morgan is one to watch for promotion. Another

:14:07. > :14:10.one is Estha McVey. She is particularly good at putting her

:14:11. > :14:13.ideas across. There is a charge she might even be welfare secretary.

:14:14. > :14:18.Gosh, that would be quite a promotion, wouldn't it? I wonder

:14:19. > :14:26.whether the fact that you was a TV presenter, because she's used to

:14:27. > :14:34.talking in front of cameras. It will be UNIX. Don't say that. `` it will

:14:35. > :14:49.be you, next. The Daily Telegraph have a lot to

:14:50. > :14:54.work with with Louis Suarez. There is a matador and April in the ring,

:14:55. > :15:02.and the caption, I was going to watch Suarez play Barcelona, but I'm

:15:03. > :15:07.far too sweet `` squeamish. This will follow him to Barcelona, won't

:15:08. > :15:12.it? I think the habit certainly will. I believe he has been banned

:15:13. > :15:17.for four months, hasn't he? Presumably he will have to take a

:15:18. > :15:26.break before he goes out there. The Mac is all we have time for. We'll

:15:27. > :15:31.be back with the headlines. Stay with us at BBC News.

:15:32. > :15:33.At 11.00pm, tens of thousands more people at risk

:15:34. > :15:35.of type`2 diabetes could be given weight`loss surgery on the NHS.
