:00:17. > :00:19.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers
:00:20. > :00:25.With me are here in our London studio ` Eleanor Mills, Columnist
:00:26. > :00:28.and Editorial Director of The Sunday Times, and from Salford, the
:00:29. > :00:49.Tomorrow's funk pages `` front pages.
:00:50. > :00:52.Hairy Cornflake Faces Porridge is the headline on the Sun.
:00:53. > :00:55.It refers to former DJ Dave Lee Travis who could be facing prison
:00:56. > :00:58.after being found guilty of groping a TV researcher almost 20 years ago.
:00:59. > :01:00.And two leaders, two gaffes on the cover of The Independent.
:01:01. > :01:03.Ed Miliband forgot to mention the deficit during his party conference
:01:04. > :01:06.speech and the Prime Minister was overheard saying the Queen purred
:01:07. > :01:08.down the phone when she was told Scotland had rejected independence.
:01:09. > :01:10.The Telegraph leads on the UK potentially joining international
:01:11. > :01:12.air strikes against Islamic State in Iraq.
:01:13. > :01:15.David Cameron says we cannot opt out of the fight.
:01:16. > :01:16.The Express has the same story claiming that
:01:17. > :01:19.the Prime Minister will authorise those strikes on Wednesday.
:01:20. > :01:22.And the Guardian says Ed Miliband played what he hopes will be
:01:23. > :01:25.his trump card as his ?2.5 billion pledge put the NHS at the heart
:01:26. > :01:30.And the Times leads on the news that the wife of Alan Henning, the
:01:31. > :01:38.hostage, has received a recording from him pleading for his life.
:01:39. > :01:51.Let's begin with the Guardian. Aspect out of a photograph alluding
:01:52. > :01:56.to events in Syria. `` a spectacular photograph.
:01:57. > :02:03.Pick up on that one and your thoughts on how the Guardian is
:02:04. > :02:09.covering that story. It is a very dramatic photograph on the front.
:02:10. > :02:13.Details of the coalition President Obama and John Kerry have managed to
:02:14. > :02:19.put together. Britain is not part of that coalition. It would have been
:02:20. > :02:25.almost unthinkable that the United States would put together a
:02:26. > :02:32.coalition on something as important as this and Britain would be on the
:02:33. > :02:39.sidelines at one point. We know the reasons why. We know the reluctance
:02:40. > :02:46.of the British people to get in engaged in this, or what we believe
:02:47. > :02:53.to be the case. We can see a very dramatic stepping up of United
:02:54. > :03:02.States is action, launching these attacks in Syria, possibly having
:03:03. > :03:04.advised the Syrian government, but not consulting them about what they
:03:05. > :03:15.were doing. An interesting distinction. No sign of the British.
:03:16. > :03:18.That might not be for much longer? I have just come back from the Labour
:03:19. > :03:35.Party conference and was a lot of talk about this. Talk about Scotland
:03:36. > :03:39.quickly switched to a recall of Parliament, likely to be on Friday,
:03:40. > :03:48.the day of Nigel Farage's speech. This is a coalition of Arab allies.
:03:49. > :03:55.I still want to portray this as a Western crusade against Islam. If
:03:56. > :04:05.you have five Arab allies, all taking part with America, it is hard
:04:06. > :04:16.to be characterised like that. Allies with predominately Sunni
:04:17. > :04:26.Muslim population. Yes, it undermines the claim of an Islamic
:04:27. > :04:31.caliphate. You both touched on that point of Britain's lack of
:04:32. > :04:36.involvement so far, do you agree with her on how soon that might
:04:37. > :04:42.change? Yes, it is very likely. I am still in the north`west and the same
:04:43. > :04:46.sort of conversations are being had. People are asking each other how
:04:47. > :04:51.quickly do MPs have to be told before the recall of Parliament and
:04:52. > :04:56.some speculation over whether or not the recall was not announced so as
:04:57. > :05:06.to give Ed Miliband the chance to deliver his speech before the
:05:07. > :05:11.announcement was made. You are the, and Eleanor was here, so it seems
:05:12. > :05:19.sensible to move onto Ed Miliband. He pledges to put the NHS at the
:05:20. > :05:23.heart of the election battle. I sat through this speech. I was waiting
:05:24. > :05:28.to be inspired. All the polls suggest that Labour was great the
:05:29. > :05:38.election, so I was sitting there waiting to see a prime ministerial
:05:39. > :05:44.presence, shades of Tony Blair and was a lot of expectation. Last year,
:05:45. > :05:48.Ed Miliband did very well. But I thought this was a disappointing
:05:49. > :05:54.speech. It felt lacklustre, there was a lot of fidgeting going on in
:05:55. > :06:01.the press section, it was full of platitudes. The pledge on the NHS
:06:02. > :06:05.was the moment when confidence got to their feet and cheered. But that
:06:06. > :06:10.was the only moment of drama and what was quite a long speech. The
:06:11. > :06:14.Labour Party are going to cheer when you say you will give more money to
:06:15. > :06:30.the NHS. But much of the rest of it is things we have heard so often
:06:31. > :06:35.before. Mansion tax, tobacco tax. His big freeze was together we can.
:06:36. > :06:41.It felt like a real amalgam of things we have heard before. I was
:06:42. > :06:46.not that impressed. And the people of envy were not that impressed.
:06:47. > :06:51.Were you impressed? I'm afraid I was not impressed. I used to work for
:06:52. > :06:57.the Labour Party, and I used to work on these speeches so I know how
:06:58. > :07:04.difficult it is and how hard it can be to inspire the audience. Tony
:07:05. > :07:09.Blair could do it, I'm afraid that Ed Miliband didn't today. There was
:07:10. > :07:12.not that sense of excitement. People were not spilling out of the
:07:13. > :07:17.conference hall seeing what a fantastic speech it had been. The
:07:18. > :07:21.whole feeling of the conference has been rather flat. It doesn't feel to
:07:22. > :07:28.me like a party that thinks it is on the threshold of power. I have been
:07:29. > :07:31.to fringe meetings talking to Labour MPs and candidates and I'm afraid
:07:32. > :07:35.the general mood is not that dissimilar to what Eleanor has said.
:07:36. > :07:44.What about his forgetting an important date? This speech was
:07:45. > :07:53.believed in advance to include a section on the deficit, but in this
:07:54. > :07:58.final conference address before the general election and not speaking on
:07:59. > :08:02.the economy is extraordinary. There was nothing on education, welfare
:08:03. > :08:13.reform, but a lot of areas that were not touched on. The NHS is the easy
:08:14. > :08:19.one. You will always be cheered for talking about saving the NHS. In
:08:20. > :08:22.terms of the overriding narrative thread that made it clear exactly
:08:23. > :08:28.how a Labour government would be different, that was lacking. Let's
:08:29. > :08:33.move on to the Daily Telegraph. Their front page refers to the
:08:34. > :08:39.stories we have discussed so far and also what David Cameron said about
:08:40. > :08:58.the Queen. This was a conversation that was overheard and he claimed
:08:59. > :09:07.that the Queen purred. This is David Cameron divulging that when he cold
:09:08. > :09:11.the Queen to tell her, she purred. And either teared up a doubt, that
:09:12. > :09:22.was not picked up by the microphone was not picked up by the microphone
:09:23. > :09:29.We all remember Helen Mirren in the Queen. And Tony Blair. These things
:09:30. > :09:35.are not meant to come out. There will be some red faces at number
:09:36. > :09:40.ten. It is not exactly surprising that the Queen is pleased, the
:09:41. > :09:49.pairing is hilarious, it is like George Galloway in the Big Brother
:09:50. > :09:56.house. `` the pairing like a cat. In a way David Cameron makes it a story
:09:57. > :10:01.about himself, the definition of relief is when you tell the Queen it
:10:02. > :10:06.is OK. He was dreading ringing her up to tell her it was not OK, even
:10:07. > :10:11.more than he was dreading the break`up of the United Kingdom.
:10:12. > :10:22.There is a cartoon on the right saying it is Prince Philip for you,
:10:23. > :10:29.Prime Minister, he is not purring. LAUGHTER
:10:30. > :10:36.Dave Lee Travis has just been found ill to one of these charges. ``
:10:37. > :10:42.found guilty. I do not think it is massively surprise in, he is being
:10:43. > :10:46.sentenced on Friday. One of my colleagues on the Sunday Times went
:10:47. > :10:51.to interview him and he did something similar, we were not
:10:52. > :10:59.surprised. Final thoughts on that, Lance? Your headlines talk about
:11:00. > :11:04.hairy cornflake facing porridge, quite a good headline from the sun,
:11:05. > :11:12.we do not know if he will go to jail or not. He has been likened to Jimmy
:11:13. > :11:15.Savile, he has been found guilty and it is a terrible offence, but
:11:16. > :11:20.compared to Jimmy Savile and the scale of the rapes he was involved
:11:21. > :11:26.in, I think that actually DLT may feel a little aggrieved to be
:11:27. > :11:30.compared with Jimmy Savile. That draws matters to a close, thank you
:11:31. > :11:38.to both of you. You will both be back at half`past 11 for the stories
:11:39. > :11:43.tomorrow.
