:00:08. > :00:16.`` starring. Hello and welcome to our look ahead

:00:17. > :00:23.to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. We have barred the door

:00:24. > :00:25.but they are still here. With me are James Rampton, Features writer for

:00:26. > :00:31.the Independent and the barrister, Sophia Cannon. There is no escape.

:00:32. > :00:37.Tomorrow's front pages. Many of the papers including the Times are

:00:38. > :00:40.dominated by the situation in Iraq. The Times leads on the situation in

:00:41. > :00:43.Iraq and reports that David Cameron is coming under increased pressure

:00:44. > :00:46.to launch air strikes against jihadists in the country.

:00:47. > :00:49.The Telegraph has a picture of a Yazidi woman cradling her child in

:00:50. > :00:52.Iraqi Kurdistan. The story to the right focuses on Government plans to

:00:53. > :00:54.clamp down on trusts designed to avoid inheritance tax.

:00:55. > :00:57.The Guardian says at least half of the 40,000 people besieged by

:00:58. > :01:00.jihadists in northern Iraq have escaped in the past 24 hours, aided

:01:01. > :01:02.by Kurdish rebels who crossed from Syria to rescue them.

:01:03. > :01:07.The Independent reports on claims that women and children have been

:01:08. > :01:10.buried alive by Islamists in Iraq. The Mail says the number of foreign

:01:11. > :01:19.criminals avoiding deportation rose by 50 per cent last year.

:01:20. > :01:21.Kellie Maloney is on the front of the Mirror, talking about her

:01:22. > :01:23.decision to live as a woman. Maloney is on the Sun's front page

:01:24. > :01:26.too. The Express leads with news of a

:01:27. > :01:36.breakthrough in the treatment of arthritis.

:01:37. > :01:41.Only one place to begin and that is with the story of the fate of some

:01:42. > :01:45.of the Yazidi community as we know because many are making their way to

:01:46. > :01:52.mount Sinjar or without water or food and the Metro has it on its

:01:53. > :02:00.front page. It says that 500 have been put into mass graves in Iraq

:02:01. > :02:10.and some of them went dead, they were historical and biblical

:02:11. > :02:15.references abound here. We don't know if this is true. We are looking

:02:16. > :02:24.for other sources other than this Iraqi minister. If this is true, it

:02:25. > :02:27.is a new depth for ISIS, the first or the fourth caliphate. How can we

:02:28. > :02:34.not be challenged by this into action? We will come to that in a

:02:35. > :02:39.moment. The pressure has been reported on David Cameron in the

:02:40. > :02:45.Times. Just when you think you could read anything more atrocious, along

:02:46. > :02:49.it comes. Shocking applies in this case. It is something I had to read

:02:50. > :02:56.twice to believe it was being written. The idea of placing 500

:02:57. > :03:04.people, some of whom are live, in a mass grave conjures images of

:03:05. > :03:08.terrible genocide from the past. Many past atrocities that people

:03:09. > :03:12.will think of when reading of this. Another story emerges that 300

:03:13. > :03:19.Yazidi women have been kidnapped and will be put into slavery. Yet again,

:03:20. > :03:28.women at the forefront of war and treated as cattle. Like with Boko

:03:29. > :03:34.Haram. Indeed. This is the core issue, women are seen as the spoils

:03:35. > :03:41.of war. That in itself should be made a war crime. One of the last

:03:42. > :03:48.things he did, William Hague, was have the conference about rape being

:03:49. > :03:51.used as a war crime. He met with Angelina Jolie and everyone said he

:03:52. > :03:57.was starstruck, though it was right to highlight the issue `` had the

:03:58. > :04:05.conference. It is another reason to take action. Let's talk about that.

:04:06. > :04:10.The Times has a headline, send in warplanes, Tories urge David Cameron

:04:11. > :04:17.to recall Parliament. It is summer recess at the moment. David Cameron

:04:18. > :04:20.under pressure to launch an air strike against jihadi is in Iraqi

:04:21. > :04:27.and supply weapons to the Kurdish forces. `` jihadis. There is dismay

:04:28. > :04:36.at about the fact that we are only sending humanitarian aid. They're

:04:37. > :04:38.terrified of the disaster of the Blair`Bush invasion ten years ago

:04:39. > :04:46.and the catastrophic aftermath of that. That is one reason by

:04:47. > :04:51.President Obama has been cautious `` one reason why. He is terrified of

:04:52. > :05:00.being tired as the new Whoosh because he ended in catastrophic

:05:01. > :05:04.failure `` Bush. At the moment, we have Ed Miliband's opposition in

:05:05. > :05:11.distinction to David Cameron's coalition. One looks like a

:05:12. > :05:20.government in waiting and one looks like somebody waiting to leave. We

:05:21. > :05:25.don't have direction. Why not recall Parliament? There is a case for

:05:26. > :05:37.that. The stories we have heard tonight and previous week, Dyer ``

:05:38. > :05:43.previously, in the call for comments, and thank you for this, he

:05:44. > :05:45.agrees with your comments. Even if you believe the invasion of Iraq was

:05:46. > :05:53.unjustified, it should not widely held the view will be amongst

:05:54. > :06:01.the British public if they here we go again. Another conflict.

:06:02. > :06:07.The only debate I know of is on social media. The correct forum for

:06:08. > :06:12.this is in Parliament. He'd you know Parliament has only been

:06:13. > :06:17.times in 30 years? It may be that the horror of what is

:06:18. > :06:32.is our fault, we have to look at this and right this wrong. Last year

:06:33. > :06:43.they were recalled to discuss Syria, worth a? No, it was the London riots

:06:44. > :06:50.`` weren't they. If there is a case for it, this must be it ignores this

:06:51. > :06:55.is barbaric. `` this must be it because this is barbaric. The Yazidi

:06:56. > :07:00.story. People who have fled to the Sinjar mountains to escape. The

:07:01. > :07:05.story we concentrate on is above that, legislate now to keep children

:07:06. > :07:13.safe online warns a charity chief. This is the managing director of the

:07:14. > :07:17.charity Beat Bullying. He expresses the concern that we are not far away

:07:18. > :07:23.from the internet becoming so lawless that it is too dangerous for

:07:24. > :07:28.children to use. He uses the phrase, lawless jungle. The abuse is getting

:07:29. > :07:34.so bad that it is leading to self harm and suicide. The figures beggar

:07:35. > :07:38.belief. Cyber bullying affects one in three young people with one in 13

:07:39. > :07:41.so consistently bullied that it leads to self harm of suicide. That

:07:42. > :07:46.terrifies me. I have three teenage girls. I haven't spoken to them for

:07:47. > :07:52.20 years because they are on the internet so much. Not quite true.

:07:53. > :07:55.The obsession of young people with the internet and social media and

:07:56. > :08:00.with their phones is so great now that they live their lives through

:08:01. > :08:06.these media ad that worries me. Not only as a father but as they never

:08:07. > :08:12.of society `` and that worries me. It is leading to terrible bullying.

:08:13. > :08:15.The shock is worrying about sex offenders and now he will have to

:08:16. > :08:21.worry about peer to peer pressure that children face everyday. Cyber

:08:22. > :08:26.bullying that has driven some children to suicide. It is the

:08:27. > :08:33.subtlety of websites playing to normal fears, am I too thin or fat

:08:34. > :08:37.or popular enough? It is a step down from self harm to suicide. The

:08:38. > :08:44.teenagers that have killed themselves into online bullying and

:08:45. > :08:49.that being cited is quite clear. There is no off button and we need

:08:50. > :09:00.to regulate it. From a legal point of view, where do you start? From

:09:01. > :09:03.some sites I have read about thinspiration sites where young

:09:04. > :09:06.girls with eating disorders postage of themselves getting thinner and

:09:07. > :09:12.they are applauded and sometimes encouraged to get even thinner. I

:09:13. > :09:15.would close them down instantly. I don't care about free speech. There

:09:16. > :09:26.is the danger that they can be reproduced. As much as a government

:09:27. > :09:33.intervene, `` as a government can intervene, I believe they should.

:09:34. > :09:40.Indeed. If we start the debate now in 2014, hopefully by 2019, we will

:09:41. > :09:46.have parameters of what is safe and what is not safe and a dark area of

:09:47. > :09:51.the internet being regulated. It sorts of sites should be put into

:09:52. > :09:54.that no go area. Might it be that we have sections of the internet where

:09:55. > :10:01.you have to opt in, you are automatically opted out, I don't

:10:02. > :10:05.know if it is possible. Look what happened, when the internet service

:10:06. > :10:10.providers were spoken to by the government, they have now had to put

:10:11. > :10:13.in an opt in button for pornographic material. Perhaps this material

:10:14. > :10:22.should go into that part of the internet. Regulated, hopefully,

:10:23. > :10:28.safe. Moving on to the Daily Mirror, agony of boxing legend, secret life

:10:29. > :10:32.of boxing legend drove me to suicide bid. This story was featured in the

:10:33. > :10:41.Sunday Mirror how Frank Maloney, known as a boxing promoter who took

:10:42. > :10:45.Leonard Lewis to the World Championships has been struggling

:10:46. > :10:48.all of his life it would appear, having been married twice with

:10:49. > :10:55.children, he feels he was in the wrong body and has now chosen to

:10:56. > :10:59.live as a woman. Her name is Kelly. They want to undergo gender

:11:00. > :11:03.reassignment surgery. The courage of the paper talked about in speaking

:11:04. > :11:08.up, having worked in that incredibly macho world. It is hard to think of

:11:09. > :11:12.a more macho environment he could have come from in boxing and a more

:11:13. > :11:15.difficult world he would have been in to come out and wanting to go

:11:16. > :11:23.through this procedure. I salute him. I think courageous doesn't sum

:11:24. > :11:27.it up. He said he wants to set an example for people and destigmatise

:11:28. > :11:33.it and show that it shouldn't be an issue. What do you think? I have

:11:34. > :11:40.been uncomfortable reporting this issue, even discussing it. First of

:11:41. > :11:48.all, the headline, they are still calling her frank. It is still that

:11:49. > :11:53.element of ridicule `` Frank. She is Kelly, that is how she has chosen to

:11:54. > :11:59.be identified. She has had to sell this story in order to pay for the

:12:00. > :12:06.transition and any operation that she wants to feel complete and

:12:07. > :12:12.whole. It is Debra Gate in an humiliating `` degradation. The

:12:13. > :12:17.story being sold feels the issue that it is different it is wrong. It

:12:18. > :12:23.feels transphobic and hatred. I feel uncomfortable. Does it really? The

:12:24. > :12:29.way the article was written was supportive of Kelly's choice and the

:12:30. > :12:33.bravery to speak out. I hope they started by calling her Kelly. They

:12:34. > :12:38.still allude back to the old life and the fact that Kelly has sold her

:12:39. > :12:45.story to pay for this is humiliation. She shouldn't have to.

:12:46. > :12:49.Kelly, I wish you all the best. A lot of support on social media. A

:12:50. > :12:53.take on board what you are saying, however, is more famous people, and

:12:54. > :12:57.statistically there must be people going through these crises, which

:12:58. > :13:03.obviously was for him, come out and say I have gone through this...

:13:04. > :13:06.Sorry, I have come out the other side and hopefully everything will

:13:07. > :13:11.be OK, I think that does destigmatise it. She says she will

:13:12. > :13:18.retreat from the spotlight once she has done this and leave the life of

:13:19. > :13:22.anonymity. `` lead a life. I hope that the media respect her and her

:13:23. > :13:27.views. The Daily Telegraph warns that this one can damage your

:13:28. > :13:32.health. Wine bottles should show health risks and the number of

:13:33. > :13:41.calories it contains. Were not allowed any fun any more, are we? ``

:13:42. > :13:47.We're. I think that prohibition springs to mind and the ideas that

:13:48. > :13:52.fun is illegal. I take on board the fact that alcohol is damaging to

:13:53. > :13:59.society. It costs ?21 billion to the economy, the damage that alcohol

:14:00. > :14:02.reeks. People are grown up and they know the damage that alcohol causes

:14:03. > :14:12.and they can make their own choices about it `` wreaks. Would it stop

:14:13. > :14:18.you drinking? The calories would. We already know how many units are in

:14:19. > :14:23.there. Calories. We need to say to the young man down at the pub, it is

:14:24. > :14:27.going to make you impotent. To the mum looking at her figure, it is

:14:28. > :14:33.going to put something on your rear. We need to attack each element of

:14:34. > :14:40.society. I don't know how to appeal to your age group? We are past

:14:41. > :14:43.helping, I am afraid. The idea of temperance and is a brighter you

:14:44. > :14:58.will see very much as being not socially active if you don't drink.

:14:59. > :15:04.`` Sobirety. `` Sobriety. In January, everybody went dry, lost

:15:05. > :15:07.weight. They got used to the idea that alcohol isn't that integral to

:15:08. > :15:11.society and that we can do without it. I agree that we should drink

:15:12. > :15:17.less but I think people should make decisions about it, they shouldn't

:15:18. > :15:20.be told by the nanny state. The whole messy Reagan thing a dense

:15:21. > :15:23.drugs doesn't work. If the government tells a young person not

:15:24. > :15:32.to do something, they are more likely to do it. `` thing about,

:15:33. > :15:36.drugs don't work. That is it for the Papers. Coming up next on BBC News,

:15:37. > :15:41.it is time for the Film Review.
