17/08/2014 The Papers

That's here on BBC News in 15 minutes.

Hello and welcome to our look ahead at what the papers

With me are Tim Montgomerie from The Times and James Millar

Tomorrow's front pages starting with

The Financial Times leads with the news that many global banks may

no longer be able to count on the support of the US Federal Reserve

interview with the Defence Secretary Michael Fallon in which he says

British fighter planes and surveillance aircraft are being used

in the fight against the Islamic State fighters in Iraq.

The Guardian also leads on that story ` below a picture of

Britain's successful 4 by 100 metre women's relay squad.

The Metro's front page is devoted to the group of Afghan Sikhs found

inside a shipping container in Tilbury Docks ` the paper calls

The Express says the Prime Minister will announce

the creation of specialist welfare teams designed to target what it

Those are some of the front pages. We will start off with the Guardian

and the story about Iraq which is dominating the newspapers. Tim, do

you want to start? Britain its bands role in a rock. We all expected

this. `` Iraq. It is a very pressing humanitarian tragedy, the Yazidi had

been trapped on the mountain. People thought Islamic state was a threat

and hoped the intervention would go further to stop this barbaric

terrorist organisation potentially spreading and having the kind of

influence that in lard and could only have dreamt of. Also people who

are critical of any intervention in this region is that this happened.

Humanitarian intervention would be the pretext for wider involvement. I

personally regard the Islamic state is a huge threat to our security and

the security of the region and I'm glad we are taking this proactive

role. Should Parliament be recalled? Should our government be doing this

without our MPs having an opportunity to debate it? The Prime

Minister gave his opinion in the newspaper today. He gave an opinion.

It is interesting about Parliament being recalled, Britain is expanding

its role, Britain having a mission in Iraq. Nowhere has this been set

out exactly what the role or mission is. There is the usual fear of

It may be nice to have Parliament It may be nice to have

recalled to set out what we are recalled to set out what we are

doing, what we are trying to prove. Are you getting the sense there is

growing pressure to recall growing pressure to recall

Parliament? He has said it is not for this sort of thing. My sense is

intervene, he wants to intervene intervene, he wants to intervene

quite dramatically, a year ago he quite dramatically, a year ago he

wanted that in Syria. He doesn't want to get too far ahead of public

opinion. Where he wants to be is where the public is demanding

action. They are seeing stories of people being buried alive, terrible

abuses. The public will say please, act. Then if we do see a big

expansion in the role, it would be hard for him to ignore those calls

for a recall. We are quite close to Parliament coming back in two

weeks. At the end of August they came back last year and the Prime

Minister got beaten. He does not want to lose two years in a wrong in

very similar circumstances. `` in a row. I do detect a feeling in this

article, there is more coming in tomorrow's papers. You get the

feeling that the pieces are being into position. Indeed, we will see

papers when we are back in an hour. papers when we are back in an hour.

Onto the Daily Telegraph. Tomorrow marks the one month countdown to the

Scottish independence referendum. In the Daily Telegraph, shadow role for

big beast, Alistair Darling after Scottish vote. If the no campaign is

successful, Alistair Darling will be rewarded. We have had so many

landmarks along the way, but it is interesting with a month to go, the

no side is beginning to talk about what happens after the vote. We had

whispers about what would happen if there was no wind. We are beginning

to talk about Alistair Darling. This is catching up with my story from 12

months ago. Ed Miliband hinted there may be a role for Alistair Darling,

big job. That will grow as we get big job. That will grow as we get

closer to the vote. Will this story upset the voters? The big danger for

the no camp is complacency. If it does not look like they are looking

at what will happen after the referendum, if they are expecting to

win, that is a dangerous place to be. The Scottish vote will say do

not take this for granted. This expression the big beast! LAUGHTER

Tories do fear him, he is one of the Labour people that they genuinely

fear. The Tory message in the next general election is going to be dogs

bark, cat 's meow, Labour will increase tax. They can pimp that on

Ed Balls, he is associated with the worst of the Brown years. `` they

can pin that. Whereas Alistair Darling is a reassuring figure. If

he was put in as Shadow Chancellor, it would be a brave thing for Ed

Miliband to do. If he is a big success in the Scottish referendum,

he could be exactly the sort of person who may change the game at

the next election. The Daily Telegraph, the elderly in care, they

must be given home comforts. This is a story about care homes having to

furnish rooms with residents own curtains and furniture in an attempt

to civilise institutions. It may be difficult in practice. That is why

you have the inverted commas. It is a very good idea, it will appear to

a lot of people. `` it will appeal. More of us realise we will end up in

homes for what ever reason. The question is how do you do it? It

will cost money. The whole subject of care is becoming increasingly

important to people. Whenever we covered this story at the times, it

read issues. Because of the stories read issues. Because of the stories

we have had in recent months, the BBC has been reporting on this.

goes on in care homes. They see like goes on in care homes. They see like

factories, the residents in them, factories, the residents in them,

the people in them are just numbers. This initiative of trying to turn

the bedrooms that people live in into something more like a home, it

has the features of the homes they left, it sounds very humanising. At

a time when there is so much fear, Norman Lamb is a very established

government figure and I hope he can deliver this as he is promising to.

looking at the new robust inspection looking at the new robust inspection

regime coming into force in October. There will be a real sense of an

individual 's home. I personally do not believe that people who work in

care homes want them to feel like prisons. I am sure given the money

and the circumstances, most people would love to be able to turn them

into homely places. How do you do it? Onto the metro, a headline

reveals, stowaways in a metal coughing. `` coffin will stop this

is a horrendous story. Often it is economic migrants. People just

wanting a better life. This seems to be a more desperate case of Sikhs

Afghanistan potentially fleeing for their lives, lots of young children

in this mess of coffin. One person did die in it. The others are

incredibly unwell. The British public are quite interesting on

these issues. You would find a lot of opposition to immigration, but

when people are fleeing persecution, they feel differently.

This is not the right way to come in and it will be in Sting have a Home

Office deals with it. That will be the next few days headlines. What is

happening to this group? You have this debate about immigration and

general anti`immigration feeling. To put yourself in a container like

that and trouble`free and a half thousand miles, you are fleeing

something horrific. `` and travel 3500 miles. There are a lot of

definitions it covers, but these are the real people that sometimes get

forgotten in the immigration debate. Back to our fast story in a rock.

France, Canada, America, they are taking in a lot of immigrants and we

should be doing more. `` our first story in Iraq. India beaten in three

days, you would not want a ticket for tomorrow. We have the cricket

win on the front of the FT, the relay runners doing incredibly well

on the front of the Guardian and we have the women's rugby world

champions on the front of the Telegraph. As a Manchester United

supporter, I did not have such a good weekend, everything else has

been good. You are following football, you should be following

athletics rugby, cricket! Thank you for that. That is it for the papers

this hour. Thank you,
