Welcome to our look at what the newspapers will be ringing us | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
tomorrow. Thank you for joining us. Time for a look at the front pages. | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
The Observer has claims from the Scottish National Party that the | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
success of the Commonwealth Games will boost the independence | :00:40. | :00:43. | |
campaign. The Sunday Times says Boris Johnson will tell David | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
Cameron that he must be prepared to leave the EU if he wants a better | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
deal from Brussels. The Sunday Telegraph leads on Gaza and an | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
interview with Philip Hammond, who says the public is deeply disturbed | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
by the fighting. The conflict is also the top story in the | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
Independent on Sunday, with the paper focusing on a row between the | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
Conservatives and Labour leaders. The Mail on Sunday says the UK is to | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
get its first NHS funded national sperm bank to make it easier for | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
lesbian couples and single women to have children. | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
This evening, we will begin with Gaza, which has been dominating our | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
news for the last few days. Looking at it from the Independent on | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
Sunday's point of view, David Cameron and Ed Miliband are in a | :01:33. | :01:35. | |
furious row over Gaza. A political story and one that suggests that the | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
two leaders are attacking each other on this. Yes, this was sparked by a | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
statement earlier today by Ed Miliband, bluntly criticising the | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Prime Minister for not condemning what Israel is doing enough. Ed | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
Miliband makes the point that there should obviously be a ceasefire and | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
both sides are in the wrong, and he does say that there has been an | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
inexplicable silence from the Prime Minister on these continued attacks | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
on civilians in Gaza. He says the Prime Minister should show more | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
leadership. This is awkward as the Prime Minister has just left for a | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
holiday in Portugal. His office has hit back, saying it is shocked that | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
they see the leader is playing politics over such a serious issue. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
A big fight over a very important matter. Normally, they tried to | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
speak with a united voice over such things. Yes, it is strange, really. | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
Ed Miliband is Jewish and he has come out strongly saying that Israel | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
is wrong and unjustified in the level of violence that it has been | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
raining down on the citizens of Gaza. He has also criticised Hamas | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
as well but his line of fire is really to attack David Cameron for | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
not doing enough and not being active enough in making sure Britain | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
takes a lead. Do you think people watching night after night this | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
relentless bombardment, do you not think we are all a bit unsure of | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
which side we should be on? I mean... I'm not sure even Philip | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
Hammond has got it right in the Sunday Telegraph. People now think | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
the balance has shifted away from Israel because they just see | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
innocent civilians and children in the firing line and I just | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
wonder... You can never get it right but people are thinking, hang on, | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
Israel. You have a good case but you have got to stop killing civilians. | :03:38. | :03:43. | |
And the graphic pictures as well. Let's look at these comments in the | :03:44. | :03:45. | |
It is a weekly, really. `` week Sunday Telegraph. The condemnation | :03:46. | :04:05. | |
It is a weekly, really. `` week lead. He has talked a little bit | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
about this and a little bit about that. He has talked about Ebola and | :04:11. | :04:20. | |
commerce to send support if any British citizens who are brought to | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
come infected. Given the economic recovery in the UK. `` even. He has | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
talked about the potential for an increase in anti`Semitic attacks in | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
Britain. Why should that happen? Do you really think that is going to | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
happen? I do not think so. It is a measure at interview. The situation | :04:47. | :04:53. | |
is intolerable in Gaza and something must be done. Frankly, thank you | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
very much, tell us something we do not know. He does not seem to have a | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
solution. Not really taking a strong leader that we want to see. It is | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
that lack of a solution that makes Ed Miliband's comments so | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
interesting. He is almost trying to get the Prime Minister to say he has | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
got a solution. He is also trying to drive a wedge between the Prime | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
Minister and Nick Clegg. David Cameron has been a bit more | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
measured. There is a little bit of political manoeuvring. He knows the | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Prime Minister has just gone off on holiday. It is a bit mean. Right | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
now, when the world could be on the brink of war. Maybe it is not the | :05:52. | :06:00. | |
best time to go off on holiday. Change onto the Observer now. A much | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
happier story all around, the Commonwealth Games. Nicola Adams. | :06:05. | :06:14. | |
Who narrowly beat my fellow countrywoman from Northern Ireland. | :06:15. | :06:22. | |
She thinks she was robbed. A split decision. It is the friendly games, | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
we do not discuss these results. I think she is a wonderful athlete. | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
You cannot have a sport nowadays, if the men can do it, the women can do | :06:35. | :06:45. | |
it. This story is more about an interview with sturgeon. She | :06:46. | :06:56. | |
believes the record`breaking performance has led to an interest | :06:57. | :07:11. | |
in the country. She has a point. Any sporting triumph does have a bounce | :07:12. | :07:18. | |
the fact. `` effect. It is not until you get knocked out. In this | :07:19. | :07:26. | |
situation, the Commonwealth Games has been a great success. The lovely | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
weather has helped. The wonderful spread of medals. Fantastic | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
performances. Do the politicians actually think this will have any | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
effect? I do not think so. Had the games been a disaster, it might have | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
reinforced the no vote. The fact it has been a success, I am not sure it | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
could make a difference. I think probably we are looking at a no, | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
rather than a yes. Do you want a fiver on it? There will not be much | :08:03. | :08:10. | |
else happening ahead of the vote on Scottish independence. I think we | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
will see a lot more on this. The Observer has done rather well to tie | :08:16. | :08:20. | |
together a series story with what is going on with the common scams. You | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
will have to make your bets off BBC premises. `` Commonwealth Games. | :08:24. | :08:31. | |
Boris Johnson is said to be warning the Prime Minister that the only way | :08:32. | :08:38. | |
to win reformed is to threaten or be prepared to leave the union. Who | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
would thought Boris Johnson is appealing to the conservative | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
grassroots by saying it you should be ready to leave the EU? This is | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
based on one of his economic advisers. He is going to suggest | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
that unless major reforms happen in the European Union, Britain should | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
be ready to leave. That is the kind of thing that most Conservatives are | :09:06. | :09:08. | |
saying. He is just reinforcing that message. It is a way of getting a | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
popular conservative onto the front of the Sunday Times. Everybody wants | :09:13. | :09:20. | |
to know if Boris Johnson is to finally put up or shut up and become | :09:21. | :09:29. | |
an MP and eventually take over from David Cameron. Smart money was to | :09:30. | :09:40. | |
mark her nose. ``? Who knows. Isn't it just a bit of sabre rattling? | :09:41. | :09:50. | |
Just in case he ends up in the chair and it is also setting up the EU for | :09:51. | :09:58. | |
renegotiation. He is reminding people that he is still there. David | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
Cameron is in Portugal. Elsewhere on the Sunday Times. News or | :10:07. | :10:13. | |
speculation that the star of the apprentice will be made a Tory peer. | :10:14. | :10:25. | |
Lord sugar is a Labour peer. I never know where these leaks come from. | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
They are usually be well sourced. `` pretty. I think there has been a | :10:33. | :10:41. | |
good idea. She has proved herself in the arenas of sport and business and | :10:42. | :10:47. | |
on television. She is a thoroughly good egg, in my opinion. She might | :10:48. | :10:56. | |
liven up the House of Lords. I think there will be some these trembling | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
in the House of Lords. Alan sugar has already been on Twitter saying | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
it would be a great idea. Does need some younger blood. Some more | :11:08. | :11:17. | |
competent women. The Mail on Sunday. NHS to find sperm bank for lesbians. | :11:18. | :11:26. | |
`` fund. That is going to get Daily Mail readers I rate, I would have | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
thought. He has to think very hard how he can upset his readership, his | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
constituency, every Sunday. This will probably get them going. This | :11:39. | :11:47. | |
particular sperm bank idea will also be available for heterosexual | :11:48. | :11:53. | |
couples. The lion that is intended to anger is that it will be | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
available to lesbians. Same`sex couples are fully intended to have a | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
family as anyone else, why not? Interesting front page. The headline | :12:07. | :12:16. | |
a rather different story altogether. Allegations about Russel Brand. | :12:17. | :12:24. | |
Thank you very much for your input. I think Gaza will dominate those of | :12:25. | :12:30. | |
the papers and inside pages. Thank you both for that. Every day we | :12:31. | :12:38. | |
discuss the papers on BBC News. With the Commonwealth Games drawing to a | :12:39. | :12:43. | |
close tomorrow, it is of course the closing ceremony with Kylie Minogue | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
going to be the headline act. We will cross to Glasgow and have a | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
look at the Commonwealth Games Sportsday. | :12:53. | :12:54. |
