2017. Coming up in The Film Review, maps to the stars starring Julianne | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Moore. And the rest of the top releases. | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
bringing us tomorrow. With me are the author and journalist Rachel | :00:21. | :00:22. | |
Shabi and Matthew Green who's also an author and journalist. | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
Tomorrow's front pages. The Independent leads on the chancellor | :00:30. | :00:31. | |
George Osborne's pledge to cut tax on inherited pensions before the | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
2015 election. The Financial Times reports on an accusation that apple | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
is prospering from illegal tax deals with the irish government. The | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
Telegraph also leads with Osborne's announcement to scrap what the paper | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
dubs the" death tax". So too does the Guardian, which | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
focuses on what it calls 'panic'among conservatives that | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
there could be more defections to UKIP. It also reports that a new | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
drug that targets breast cancer could extend life by 15 months. | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
The Times reports on Hong Kong's crackdown of pro`democracy | :00:56. | :00:56. | |
demonstrators where tens of thousands of protestors are | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
blockading the centre of the city.The Daily Mail has an exclusive | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
interview with brain tumour patient Ashya King's's parents."They locked | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
us up and left him alone, crying like an animal" they say. | :01:05. | :01:12. | |
The Mirror reports on actress Lynda Bellingham's fight with her terminal | :01:13. | :01:20. | |
cancer. The paper says she wants to have one last Christmas with her | :01:21. | :01:30. | |
family. And in the Sun, George Clooney shows | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
off his new bride Amal Alamuddin. The couple married in Venice | :01:34. | :01:36. | |
yesterday. I was saying in the headlines, the | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
Conservative conference has been overshadowed by the defection, which | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
is a fair assessment. It is getting there isn't it. Don't you think? | :01:47. | :01:54. | |
They are alluding to the same thing, which is that George Osborne's | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
announcement about the abolition of this death tax that it's been | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
called, where it he is scrapping the 55% rate of duty you pay if you pass | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
on a pension pot after death ``. It has been played as a Tory comeback | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
from trying to assuage frayed nerves over the rather rocky beginning to a | :02:19. | :02:26. | |
conference that I suppose the Conservative party assumed they | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
would cruise through, it didn't turn out that way. The Guardian headline | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
alludes to everything you have said, unlike the others, which isn't | :02:36. | :02:40. | |
what David Cameron and George Osborne hope for. The others report | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
on the tax pledge, whereas the Guardian spells it out. They are | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
talking about panic over UKIP and rumours of other MPs leaving the | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
Conservatives. It would be a serious blow. The question is, will the | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
polls that show voters have more confidence in the Conservatives on | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
the economy translate into more votes? George Oz bone will hop on | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
that theme and see if he can reinforce the Conservatives economic | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
credentials `` George Osborne. The Times, Osborne hopes it will steady | :03:18. | :03:26. | |
Tory nerves. It has distracted the papers are way from scandal and | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
defection. Do you think this is what voters want to read about? That is | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
the question. This is a sweetener with an eye on the grey vote. It's a | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
crowdpleaser. Osborne, by his own standards, has failed. The economy | :03:43. | :03:51. | |
hasn't recovered as he pledged. In your opinion. By any measure. By the | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
measures he set for himself, by the pledges he made, he has failed. He | :03:59. | :04:05. | |
paints a different picture. He won't stand up at a Tory conference and | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
say, I have failed. He is more likely to offer these diversionary | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
sweetness. By any measure, living standards have fallen, most aren't | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
feeling the effects of economic... That is true, but do people trust | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
Labour to do any better, given what happened? Labour isn't offering an | :04:25. | :04:31. | |
alternative. The things most people ask for and being provided by either | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
party. Ed Balls didn't say anything. He said it would worsen before it | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
got better. There will be more austerity he was upfront about it. | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
They are following the same script. The polls show that what the public | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
want, increased minimum wages, will efforts to tackle tax evasion, | :04:50. | :04:57. | |
renationalisation of utilities, no major party is offering fees. If you | :04:58. | :05:03. | |
are asked to choose between austerity and light austerity, it | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
isn't an attractive proposition. Good news for people with pension | :05:08. | :05:12. | |
pots who are about to retire, approaching 75, knowing their money | :05:13. | :05:17. | |
will go further. And as living standards rise, that is | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
significant. Can be sent on other things. We will stick with the | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
Times, reporting on the crackdown on democracy protesters in Hong Kong. | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
We shouldn't underestimate the seriousness of this and the | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
ramifications not only for Hong Kong, though for the world. | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
Interesting to see the story on the front pages finally, it has been | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
buried for the last few days, particularly with the Conservative | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
conference and also with the air in Iraq, which we will talk about in a | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
moment. `` the airstrikes. These are the biggest protest since Hong Kong | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
was handed back to China in 1997 and there is concern about what happens | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
next. The Times leads with Hong Kong's government quashing rumours | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
that the Chinese military is going to be deployed to contain the | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
protest, which would be horrifying, hitting, given memories of Tiananmen | :06:10. | :06:13. | |
Square in 1989. Britain is very quiet. It has been interesting that | :06:14. | :06:20. | |
this isn't an international story resonating in domestic politics `` | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
horrifying, given memories. It promised one country, two systems. | :06:28. | :06:32. | |
What is your feeling about what is happening? Is this China trying to | :06:33. | :06:39. | |
get more control? Clearly. China has written eight on the agreement made | :06:40. | :06:50. | |
about the vote in 2017 `` renegged. It seems that China is carefully | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
controlling the candidates you are allowed to vote for. Doesn't Hong | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
Kong operate better with independence? Doesn't it produce | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
more money, income, isn't it more financially stable with its | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
independence rested Mark does that mean it shouldn't want a democratic | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
vote? `` independence? It wants to pursue as much independence as | :07:16. | :07:21. | |
possible. It won't take China renegging on agreements made a very | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
kindly. It is clear where the protest is coming from. The standard | :07:25. | :07:31. | |
script, quite legitimate democratic protest beaten down with | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
heavy`handed policing and getting bigger. We have seen that play at | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
time and again. It is different in Beijing, it is more difficult to | :07:41. | :07:45. | |
predict how this will play out. Not many places where there hasn't been | :07:46. | :07:48. | |
a protest in the world in the last few years. Moving onto the | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
Telegraph, as you pointed out, we are going to look at the RAF's | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
involvement in military airstrikes. At the bottom of the paper, we have | :07:59. | :08:06. | |
a different slant on the involvement in a personal one. One of the | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
pilots. David Haines, the British aid worker who was beheaded in Iraq | :08:12. | :08:19. | |
by ISIS, he worked for the RAF as an engineer, and aircraft engineer. | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
There is a personal element for the pilots doing these are bombing | :08:25. | :08:30. | |
missions over the coming weeks `` an aircraft. That is what the story is | :08:31. | :08:36. | |
highlighting. It will be personal for those pilots. That doesn't take | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
away the questions about whether the strategy will work up which is | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
something that was debated in parliament vigourously last week, | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
though has now fallen off the agenda. There are questions about | :08:47. | :08:50. | |
whether these missions will be adequate as a response. The last | :08:51. | :08:56. | |
thing you want in a bombing campaign is for it to be motivated by some | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
kind of justice. That should be the last thing it is about. That's what | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
the debate has been about. The idea that you can bomb away and ideology | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
has been proved to be and sounded many times. That's the one take away | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
from the 13 years of the war on terror, that this isn't the way to | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
solve the problem. It seems shocking that we are taking this same tactic | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
again. Another line keeps filtering, appearing in this article, the words | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
of Michael Fallon, the Defence Secretary, every now and then you | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
hear a minister warned that there could be British casualties. There | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
are likely to be headlines that a British man, fighting for Islamic | :09:47. | :09:50. | |
State, dead, killed by a bomb from the RAF. It is a line that they keep | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
slipping out. We will return to the Guardian now, when this story came | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
through, it created quite a debate in the newsroom and it is | :10:01. | :10:06. | |
interesting, isn't it? A headache for David Cameron and the | :10:07. | :10:09. | |
Conservatives is Brookes new mart, who quit his post over the weekend | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
because of allegations in the Daily Mirror and it now seems that there | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
could be an intra` and claim brought against the newspaper `` Newmark. | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
Certainly, the Guardian has picked up on this story and is raising | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
questions about whether what the Sunday Mirror was doing was ethical. | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
They say the story that brought down Newmark was run by a freelancer who | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
had reached out using a fake Twitter account, presenting as a young woman | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
to several Tory MPs. It is implied in the story that he was trawling | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
for victims. People are asking in parliament if this is justified as a | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
journalistic technique. Was what he was doing, sending lewd pictures, | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
such a big public interest issue that it justifies what the papers | :11:01. | :11:07. | |
say amounts to entrapment? It would be in the public interest if he was | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
doing that on a regular basis. That's the issue. Working as a | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
journalist, I thought the job was to find out what was going on, rather | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
than create a situation. There is a fundamental question about the role | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
of a journalist that is at stake. Do you agree? Yes. I struggle to see | :11:29. | :11:36. | |
the public interest in something like this. It's not like it's | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
exposing corruption or something over which there would be a more | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
serious concern. The journalist could argue that he was | :11:47. | :11:49. | |
investigating the behaviour of public ministers on social | :11:50. | :11:55. | |
accounts. Was it investigating or was it creating conditions? What's | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
emerging are questions over the images used to, so obviously... Who | :12:02. | :12:05. | |
is this woman whose picture is on this Twitter at count? `` account. | :12:06. | :12:14. | |
Dashing over pictures were used? `` does she know. Should he have | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
resigned? I don't know if he should have resigned. It is unusual to | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
defend a Conservative, but I don't think he should have resigned over | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
it, I don't think that warrants it. It is stupidity. He hasn't committed | :12:32. | :12:36. | |
a crime. Conversations like this would have overshadowed the party | :12:37. | :12:39. | |
conference. They were nipping it in the bud. A lot of thanks to you, it | :12:40. | :12:53. | |
Mr and Mrs Kruger this weekend `` Clooney. They have brought light | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
relief. Just under the headline of the Conservative announcement, the | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
ring that says it all. I don't know why it takes four days to get | :13:04. | :13:07. | |
married, but this has been quite an extravaganza. There was a headline | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
doing the rounds on social media, coming from businesswomen media, and | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
it has turned it around, seeing that internationally acclaimed barrister | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
marries an actor, which doesn't seem to be a statement of gender so much | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
as the kind of things we are preoccupied by `` saying. You are | :13:26. | :13:35. | |
just jealous. Four days in Venice. Think you for taking us through the | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
papers. Stay with us on BBC News, we will be back with more after how the | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
Conservatives are fighting back following the loss of a further MP | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
