:00:00. > :00:00.200 metres. We will have a report from the oval, where England's

:00:00. > :00:10.bowlers got the fifth Test off to a good start. Axing 15 minutes. ``

:00:11. > :00:19.that in. Hello and welcome to our look ahead

:00:20. > :00:22.to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are Kevin

:00:23. > :00:25.Schofield, Chief Political Correspondent at the Sun, and the

:00:26. > :00:32.broadcaster and author Dreda Say Mitchell. Tomorrow's front pages.

:00:33. > :00:35.The Financial Times says the Ukraine has destroyed part of a Russian

:00:36. > :00:40.armoured column which had reportedly crossed into its territory.

:00:41. > :00:45.The Independent has a striking image of a woman and her sick husband at

:00:46. > :00:49.an Ebola ward in Liberia. The Daily Mail has an interview with

:00:50. > :00:57.the wife of a man beaten by masked burglars in his London home.

:00:58. > :01:01.'Police defend televised raid on Sir Cliff', is the headline on the front

:01:02. > :01:04.of the Telegraph. The Mirror also has more on the decision to search a

:01:05. > :01:07.house belonging to Sir Cliff as well as allegations that I.S militants

:01:08. > :01:08.are hacking into celebrity bank accounts.

:01:09. > :01:11.The Guardian claims a report surrounding the horsemeat scandal

:01:12. > :01:14.has been shelved until at least the autumn.

:01:15. > :01:16.The Times reports that America is considering airstrikes around

:01:17. > :01:23.Baghdad to protect Iraq's new leadership from the threat of

:01:24. > :01:25.Islamic militants. And the Herald pictures a triumphant Team Scotland

:01:26. > :01:33.showcasing their Commonwealth medals at a parade in Glasgow. Good

:01:34. > :01:43.evening. Two stories dominating the front pages tomorrow. One of them is

:01:44. > :01:47.on Sir Cliff Richard. Police say more witnesses have come forward

:01:48. > :01:52.over the allegations that he strenuously denies. He says he will

:01:53. > :01:59.co`operate with the police investigation. They also say 10,000

:02:00. > :02:09.fans have sent messages of support to him. The Times, an interesting

:02:10. > :02:16.take on developments in Baghdad. What are the details? It seems like

:02:17. > :02:23.we are facing a new phase of the crisis. An Admiral of the US Navy

:02:24. > :02:35.has revealed that President Obama has given the go`ahead for US

:02:36. > :02:38.military to step in, if Islamic State enter Baghdad, primarily to

:02:39. > :02:45.protect American personnel but clearly Baghdad would be a key

:02:46. > :02:50.victory for the Islamic State and if they were to cease Baghdad we would

:02:51. > :02:55.be entering a whole new phase of the crisis. Interesting because it says

:02:56. > :03:01.a former senior official at the Pentagon has warned that air power

:03:02. > :03:03.alone isn't enough to secure Iraq. President Obama is placing a lot of

:03:04. > :03:11.responsibility on the Iraqi government. He should all stop but,

:03:12. > :03:18.as I said earlier, this country has been in crisis for a long time. ``

:03:19. > :03:22.he should. But, as I said earlier, this country has been in crisis for

:03:23. > :03:26.a long time. If you have a country where the leadership isn't holding

:03:27. > :03:31.itself together, that isn't able to protect its citizens and leaders

:03:32. > :03:35.have been saying for a long time that effort `` ethnically they are

:03:36. > :03:39.very different, maybe there is an opportunity to do this. Maybe this

:03:40. > :03:44.is a question people have to start grappling with because they should

:03:45. > :03:54.be able to protect themselves. How do you feel about the fact that EU

:03:55. > :03:57.member states can now on the Kurds? But you don't want more confusion. I

:03:58. > :04:02.think people have to fill... If the Kurds have arms, they feel they

:04:03. > :04:07.might use this to start their own state, so people have to be clear

:04:08. > :04:13.what the possibilities actually for the future. I think the whole

:04:14. > :04:20.question is of self`determination. Do you think people, especially in

:04:21. > :04:25.Britain and also America, are worried about being drawn into

:04:26. > :04:32.another conflict? Definitely. We saw that this time last year and its ``

:04:33. > :04:39.with Syria. We actually did a poll this week for the Sun. There is much

:04:40. > :04:44.more support for military action in Iraq this time than there was in

:04:45. > :04:49.Syria last year, as a way of defeating the Islamic State. But, as

:04:50. > :04:57.a country, we are still just getting out of Afghanistan, there's no great

:04:58. > :05:03.appetite for military action. But in this specific case, I think the

:05:04. > :05:07.government wouldn't have to try too hard to sell it to the public, if it

:05:08. > :05:14.was sold on the basis that we are trying to stop maniacs from killing

:05:15. > :05:18.innocent people. Another issue that many people are concerned about is

:05:19. > :05:26.Ebola. Harrowing picture on the front page of the Independent. Can

:05:27. > :05:32.you describe it? It's one story that tells hundreds. It is. It's shocking

:05:33. > :05:39.in terms of the colour. It looks so bleak. You've got a couple, the

:05:40. > :05:44.husband on the floor. You just wonder where the medical staff. The

:05:45. > :05:48.wife is just holding her head. What this picture really gives is a sense

:05:49. > :05:52.of helplessness. Who is going to help us out of this? That the big

:05:53. > :05:56.question. Is the outside world going to take this seriously enough to

:05:57. > :06:03.actually getting there and helping people? It doesn't get... This is

:06:04. > :06:07.really bleak. Really bleak stuff. To me, that's enough for us to think we

:06:08. > :06:11.need to go in there and get something sorted out. What's

:06:12. > :06:16.especially terrifying about Ebola is there's no cure. It's so fast

:06:17. > :06:23.moving. It's relatively easy to catch. Once you've got it, there's a

:06:24. > :06:34.90% chance you will die. Terrifying. At the moment it is contained in

:06:35. > :06:38.Africa. As a disease it's been around for a long time, it hasn't

:06:39. > :06:41.just sprung up, but there's obviously some kind of progression

:06:42. > :06:48.that happened with this disease and that's why it needs to be taken very

:06:49. > :06:52.seriously. I spoke to a gentleman who has dealt with three Ebola

:06:53. > :06:57.outbreaks. Two in the 70s, one in the 90s. He said the only way to

:06:58. > :07:02.stop the spread of this is by getting into the clinics, getting

:07:03. > :07:06.into the hospitals, sanitising them and getting the staff to have strict

:07:07. > :07:09.regulations. I think a lot of the problem is where this is. These are

:07:10. > :07:15.countries that don't have these resources. It seems to be getting

:07:16. > :07:21.out of control. They say six months to get it contained. That's a long

:07:22. > :07:26.time, a lot of people who will be lost in that time. Absolutely. If

:07:27. > :07:31.it's about sanitisation, there's not that much to do really. It's not

:07:32. > :07:35.like there are bigger things that maybe you have to do. If it's that

:07:36. > :07:42.type of level, that should be easy to do. At it is quite a large area.

:07:43. > :07:53.But, still, that's basic medical treatment. Ukraine continues to

:07:54. > :07:57.dominate as well. The Guardian has donated much of its front page to

:07:58. > :08:02.claims from Ukraine that it has destroyed Russian military

:08:03. > :08:12.vehicles. Conflicting reports from all sides about what's going on. The

:08:13. > :08:16.ongoing crisis in Gaza and Iraq have almost taken the world's attention

:08:17. > :08:22.away. But the situation there is obviously not getting any better.

:08:23. > :08:32.Ukraine claim they have destroyed vehicles moving into Ukraine, from

:08:33. > :08:39.Russia. Russia says that's not true. You just get this sense that this is

:08:40. > :08:46.not something that has a solution on the near horizon. Two or three weeks

:08:47. > :08:53.ago it was all we were talking about. Ukraine and Russia. But we

:08:54. > :09:00.have taken our eyes off the ball a bit. When you say that, giving

:09:01. > :09:07.journalists, the media? Or do you think governments? Political leaders

:09:08. > :09:16.have imposed sanctions on Russia. They've retaliated I banning some

:09:17. > :09:19.stuff from the West. `` by banning. It doesn't look like Putin is going

:09:20. > :09:33.to back down. He isn't that type of character. Perhaps more sanctions,

:09:34. > :09:36.targeting those closest to Putin, the oligarchs. I think something

:09:37. > :09:40.needs to be done because clearly it's not getting any better. I know

:09:41. > :09:44.this is something you feel strongly about. There is a humanitarian

:09:45. > :09:48.situation as well. It does need`year`old. It absolutely does,

:09:49. > :09:56.whether that's from Russia or whatever. `` need aid. I think is

:09:57. > :10:00.humanitarian so`called convoys seem to `` provocative. Look at the

:10:01. > :10:05.conflict around the world, you are right, the gaze went off this but

:10:06. > :10:09.there is so much conflict going on around the world. We have to step

:10:10. > :10:15.could ask ourselves as human beings, what are we doing? It does seem like

:10:16. > :10:18.the world is in crisis. And the people who pay the price our

:10:19. > :10:22.children and people who have nothing to do with these conflicts. Your

:10:23. > :10:30.paper brings an issue much closer to home, on page four. Foreign language

:10:31. > :10:36.is the headline. Tell us about this. The Sun has been doing some

:10:37. > :10:42.research. In the last year, prisons spent ?1 million on interpreters for

:10:43. > :10:47.foreign prisoners. That's a lot of money at a time when we are having

:10:48. > :10:56.to make cuts to bring the deficit down. I can see why people would be

:10:57. > :10:59.up in arms about this. Personally, if I was in a country where I

:11:00. > :11:01.couldn't speak the language and I got arrested, I hope there would be

:11:02. > :11:06.an interpreter for me. But the bigger picture is that the

:11:07. > :11:10.government is struggling to deport foreign prisoners who basically are

:11:11. > :11:16.at the end of their sentences. There is a rise in the population? Yes.

:11:17. > :11:23.Because, for whatever reason, they are still there, which is adding to

:11:24. > :11:30.the issue of interpreters. Strangely, there is a huge

:11:31. > :11:38.disparity. Some prisons spent ?200,000, others only ?5,000. The

:11:39. > :11:41.question is why some prisons... Clearly they have more foreign

:11:42. > :11:56.prisoners and need more translators. Moving on. Going back to the Times.

:11:57. > :12:00.This is interesting. Page six. Scots independence a bad idea, coming from

:12:01. > :12:06.the Australian Prime Minister. Were you going to talk about this? I just

:12:07. > :12:13.hope Tony Abbott isn't on Twitter because if he is he will wake up

:12:14. > :12:18.tomorrow morning to a deluge of abuse from enthusiastic, shall we

:12:19. > :12:25.say, supporters of independence in Scotland. But he has been asked for

:12:26. > :12:31.his views. It is the first time we have heard from a foreign leader on

:12:32. > :12:34.this. Barack Obama was asked at a press conference that he sought back

:12:35. > :12:38.to the union. But this is the most outspoken by far. He is basically

:12:39. > :12:43.saying Scottish independence would be a threat to international order.

:12:44. > :12:58.It would be a blow for the friends of freedom, as he says. It is

:12:59. > :13:02.pretty... Kind of over blown. Is known for being outspoken. I don't

:13:03. > :13:09.see these comments going down very well. Rowe I understand why people

:13:10. > :13:12.might want to think about it. `` I understand. Do you find yourself

:13:13. > :13:22.engaged in what's going on in Scotland? I think about nationalism

:13:23. > :13:25.and why people need to all of a sudden tie themselves to their flag

:13:26. > :13:31.and really separate themselves from other people in a union. It is

:13:32. > :13:36.interesting in history when those things happen. When the UK was

:13:37. > :13:41.created, the Scots became Scottish, the Welsh became more Welsh and in

:13:42. > :13:45.which became more English. That make sense. You do step back when you

:13:46. > :13:49.have this moment and think about your identity. Issues about

:13:50. > :13:53.ethnicity, what defines me in terms of culture, what defines me in terms

:13:54. > :14:09.of language. That's what's very interesting.

:14:10. > :14:17.It's got people here interested. It has captured the imagination because

:14:18. > :14:31.it is a seismic event . It is a once in a lifetime

:14:32. > :14:35.opportunity to get independence. It is permanent. You can change your

:14:36. > :14:43.mind in five years in the general election. `` can't. It's good to

:14:44. > :14:49.hear people talking about the future. It is good we got something

:14:50. > :14:53.out of you in the end. I wasn't going to let you off. Thank you for
