25/09/2014 The Papers

regulations. And Castleford Tigers posted Warrington Wolves tonight in

the super league preliminary semifinal play`offs. That is all

coming up in 15 minutes. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what

the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are the

broadcaster David Davies and Anne Ashworth, assistant editor of The

Times. The Guardian leads with the vote in the Commons tomorrow on

whether the UK should join airstrikes on Islamic State in Iraq.

The top story on the front of the Metro is the warning from Iraq's

prime minister about a terrorist plot to attack the underground in

Paris and New York. The Telegraph says the FBI knows the identity of

'Jihadi John' who murdered a British aid worker and two American

journalists. The Mail says Britain is about to commit to a three`year

war against Islamic State militants. The Times leads with an interview

with the daughter of David Haines, who was murdered by the extremists,

where she implores MPs to back airstrikes in Iraq. The Independent

warns about the computer bug, Shellshock, and carries a picture of

Kurdish refugees returning to Syria from Turkey. The Shellshock virus is

also on the front of the Financial Times, which says governments are

scrambling to shore up their cyber defences. And the Scotsman has a

picture of Europe's Ryder Cup team on the front page looking very smart

in tartan suits at Gleneagles on the eve of the competition.

Let's begin with the Sun. They have the vote in parliament tomorrow on

the front page. The majority tell the Prime Minister to hit Iraq and

Syria. This is an opinion poll that the Sun has commissioned. 57%

support attacks on Iraq and 51% want to attack Syria as well. Syria is a

matter for another day. Tomorrow is all about Iraq. There is a

widespread view across the papers that the Prime Minister will get his

way, will get his vote in the House of Commons tomorrow. A seven hour

debate. And he will have cross`party support. Here in the Sun, of course,

we have an opinion poll for the British public. The important thing

here is that the majority of people want the RAF to join airstrikes in

Iraq and in Syria. The motion tomorrow is only on Iraq. Some of us

think that another vote in the House of Commons in the not too distant

future to go to Syria is almost inevitable. Public opinion has

turned at the sight of those beheadings. It seems like people are

willing. They want to see the government take action in both Iraq

and Syria. David Cameron will go to the House of Commons tomorrow,

certain that he can carry hearts and minds with him, although in the

House of Commons, he may find more sceptical people than among the

general public. There is concern among MPs as to the aims of the

military action. We have seen what happens in the past when names have

not been clear. What do you do at the end of this? Absolutely! The

awfulness of what has been going on that has been in front of

everybody's eyes has, I think, made people who would naturally be

cynical, sceptical and very, very wary after... People are tired of

these wars. I'm sure that they are. But also, we are told, should the UK

and US keep open the option of sending ground troops back into

Iraq? Yes, 57%. No, 32%. Now, you would never have got those figures,

I suspect, one year ago. The vote for strikes against Syria, the

government lost that. I wonder if we would have one month ago seen these

figures. The young woman whose father was beheaded has articulated

how the British people feel. Up with this we will not put. We will not

tolerate this terror. The Times carries that story on its front

page. Avenge my father, says daughter of aid worker. Bethany

Haines is only 17 and who have lost her father in this incredibly brutal

way... She has been so remarkably composed when we have seen her

speak. Yes. And it is beyond the comprehension of some of us, surely,

to think what hurt she and her family have been going through. And

there are other hostages, of course. A French hostage, less

well`publicised in the UK this morning, but in France, a huge story

today inevitably. And in this paper, interesting that this is the top

paragraph of the story. The daughter of a British charity worker. But in

the middle of the story here, it reads, several senior figures are an

easy at the lack of a specific or a more exit strategy. That is the

background to it. But it is extraordinary to learn how quickly

things could start happening. Tomorrow night, things could

happen. The debate will come to an end about five o'clock in the

evening and within hours, airstrikes could begin. The debate will begin

at 10:30 AM tomorrow morning. 6.5 hours, they expect. Lots of MPs will

have something to say. One of those articulating a certain amount of

dismay is the Alan Duncan, who says it is difficult to have a simple

strategy and set of objectives when you are dealing with a cross`border

militant movement rather than a rogue state. I understand that but

those who take that attitude must have another option. I think that

those who stand up in the House of Commons, and I'm sure people will,

they will have to save more than we are against. They have to say what

their alternative would be. Tories target professionals with the rent

to buy scheme. This story... It is to try to help young professionals

save up for a deposit for their first home. Housing is rising to the

top of the political agenda and this is the conservative answer to a

whole group of dispossessed people who cannot buy a house of their own

because they cannot save for a deposit. Under this scheme, they

would be allowed to read cheaply for seven years, which would enable them

to set something aside each month for a deposit for a home of their

own. And the housing association, the biggest provider of social

housing, would be given low cost loans to build these homes and allow

young professionals with a certain level of income to live in them for

quite a long period and save money, which is, I think, what a huge

number of young people want to do. There are employers providing

mortgages for their staff because they say it is becoming like a

fairytale for many people, the idea that they could ever by property.

This is another of a whole series of arguments going on between the

parties. Everybody wants to be the party of housing this season. Labour

has a review of housing this season. And it will release a report next

month. What were the latest figures? 200,000? And yet, we have heard from

this government about loosening the reins on planning. I happen to know

of a West Midlands council, where even this very month, we are being

told that getting planning permission, the time it has taken

has not decreased but increased. It has lengthened in the past two,

three years. It is quite extraordinary. The Financial Times.

I cannot pretend to understand this bully. Shellshock phrase the nerves.

Cybersecurity. We had Heartbleed. Now we have Shellshock, which should

have asked concerned that the underlying systems have been

infected. Half a billion computers worldwide that could be affected. An

expert earlier seemed to suggest this was known about 20 years ago,

which seems extraordinary but... Nobody has been able to find its

weaknesses. That is because it was built rather well. But there are

always flaws in a system. If hackers can go in and overwrite the code

that is there and freak havoc... Whether any have done so `` create

terrible problems... Whether any have done so already ordered this

will just let them know that they can go in there... How experts are

cybersecurity experts? One paper says that people should stop using

their credit cards for online purchases until a solution to the

bug is found and distributed. That is a fairly large thing for somebody

to say, isn't it? , Ross would grind to a halt! `` commerce. GPs say that

waiting times are a national disgrace. The chair of the Royal

College of GPs says that these intolerable waiting times to see a

GP have become a national disgrace and it could endanger people's

health. People cannot get an appointment, therefore they do not

turn up and they are not diagnosed. In only three years... In 2011, it

was 13%, the proportion of patients waiting a week before seeing a GP.

Now, it is up to 16%. We are always trying to reform the GP system.

Goodness knows, I hope this does not start another reform because it

never seems to work. We have had billions spent on management

consultants trying to make these systems work. Exactly why it does

not work... Is it that people spend too long? She suggests there are not

enough GPs to go around and more people want to see them and they are

overworked. The level of expectation is very real. There is no question,

surely, that this would increase with the average age of the

population. Older people by definition... And we older people,

which I must say, we feel that that was what we were brought up to do.

When you were not well, you went to see the GP or the GP came to see

you. I cannot see you as an older person. You are very generous.

Overgenerous. For me, I think there should be more over the telephone

consultations. The Ryder Cup in the Telegraph. The partners of some of

the American players. The paper says there are three days of every second

year that can turn the most ardent eurosceptics into passionate

supporters of Europe. Even Nigel Farage. He seems to love everything

about Europe! The wind, the food, the excellent transport system. ``

the wine. The clogs? ! Who wears clogs? ! These women seem very

similar in their appearance. I do like some of their boots. There is

something troubling about the similarity between these wives, do

you not find? This is not a subject I will get into but I do love the

quote from Nigel Farage. And good for him to say this. But this event,

the Ryder Cup, which has had a chequered history over the years...

It used to be Great Britain against the US and it was dying on its feet

because the US used to win all the time. It was rejuvenated and now is

a huge and thrilling sporting event, which, increasingly, is being

watched by people who do not watch golf for the rest of the year. So

many happy returns for HM telegram team will stop apparently, so many

people reach their 100th birthday, who should receive a card from the

Queen that this little office does not have enough staff will stop do

people really receive a telegram? It is incredible. 14,000 people over

100 in Great Britain. People who were born in the year the Great War

started are still alive. What memories! I'm looking forward to

mind. I think you have to notify if you want one. We will do that for

you, David, when the time comes. It is still a while away. And one piece

of breaking news tonight. We have just received reports from Oklahoma

in the US of what looks to have been a shooting. One woman has been

killed and a man has been taken to hospital in what police has

described as a large incident. A food distribution centre in

Oklahoma. Very few details, to ask at the moment. Local media reports

that there is a gunman at the site in Oklahoma City. `` very few

details coming into us at the moment. More details as we receive

them. Hello and welcome to Sportsday, I'm

Eilidh Barbour. The Ryder Cup captains have revealed

their pairings for the opening fourballs at Gleneagles as the

competition gets under way tomorrow morning. The Racing advisor to the

Queen has said they accept the disqualification of their horse
