03/11/2015 The Papers

their run without goals at Moscow? Cricket, racing and news for

American football fans coming up after the papers.

Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers

With me are Caroline Frost, Entertainment Editor

at the Huffington Post, and the Parliamentary journalist Tony Grew.

The FT has a story we've been covering here

on BBC News this evening, saying Amazon is to open a High Street book

shop in a move the paper describes as "Poacher turns

shopkeeper". TheExpress says walking just 30 minutes a day is the best

way to shed the pounds and keep them off.

The Daily Telegraph says town hall officials who abuse phone

and email snooping powers will face up to two years in prison.

The Guardian leads with the news that junior doctors are to

be offered an 11% pay rise as part of a package of concessions to stop

The Metro has the same top story, saying the British Medical

Association is sceptical and is demanding more information.

Details about the death of Robin Williams lead the Mirror -

with the actor's wife saying he killed himself because he was

The Guardian first. Jeremy Hunt is offering 11% to junior doctors. This

is a last chance saloon. To reach a compromise and to head off strike

action as we are going to the crucial period of the winter and

Christmas period when services absolutely will be at a premium.

Tony, it sounds like a large pay rise, is there a catch? The BMA say

they are sceptical. We do not know the full details, the Department of

Health will release them tomorrow. Headline figure is 11%. The dispute

is about a complicated top-up system to the basic pay. Around 40%, 50% of

money junior doctors get is based on things like the hours they have been

on call and responsibilities, Jeremy Hunt wants to get rid of the banding

system. So an 11% pay rise is 10% more than any other public sector

worker is being offered. And you wonder what the reaction the others

would be. Exactly. I am not sure this will work. What the Health

Secretary wants to avoid is a strike and junior. Is bringing the NHS to

get sneeze. As winter is looming. Or I see on my own social media feed is

enormous amounts of sympathetic postings to the doctors. We have

seen this thing with Tube drivers in London which is very metro centric.

But with something like doctors, everybody reaches out. We have also

had the doctors and nurses do not get rewarded sufficiently so when

something like this happens, it does reach everybody. It is a golden rule

of politics, do not pick fights with doctors and nurses because

politicians will not win. We will see what happens. I quit three, when

they thought it could not get worse, it just has. We had diesel emissions

six months ago and is now they have come forward and they are trying to

handle the PR desperately and they say it does look as though they

could also have been shifting the figures on the CO2 emissions and

fuel consumption. And petrol engines for the first time. Diesel engines

and now petrol. It is an interesting story. Thinking about the massive

damage to the reputation and according to this report, the people

in charge of VW said between ten and 20 employees have caused this level

of reputational damage. It is about the nature of reputation and if we

think about VW before the scandal, German engineering, efficient. Now

that has been blown out of the water. But much more importantly is

pollution. If these tests have been pollution. If these tests have been

fixed so cars that do not meet efficiency standards have been

driving around on the roads belching out fumes we have been breathing

again, it is a serious public health issue. To be fair to VW, the Chief

Executive has said this is their own digging. From the start, you says, I

have pushed hard for the relentless and comprehensive clarification of

events, we will. At nothing and nobody. It sounds like a mission to

unveil wrongdoing. Is that a PR exercise? This is the new boss who

has been handed a bag of spanners literally. This is probably the only

thing on his desk. All projects at VW I guess have been at least

part... They have to get to the bottom of it. It makes people think

twice about dyeing what they would think is traditionally a VW, like a

golf. And suddenly... Clearing out the stables. Train to restore the

reputation will not protect them from the series of lawsuits it could

face from consumers and people breathing in the air so the story is

not going to get better. Not a great story for the Inland Revenue. Half

of calls to the taxman go without being responded. Reputational

damage. Why do they not answer the phone? Nobody will be falling over

with sympathy for anything to do with the taxman. But this feels very

familiar. We know that if we are the taxman 50p, they will be on the

phone and they have our attention and vice versa. It is to hear that

if there is other modelling, this is about filling in the form correctly

so you might get benefits once a year, and that will become a bit of

a model. This is a report from the Public Accounts Committee that has

used vicious language but it points out the difference between the

private and public sector. The private sector is much better,

relatively, adds doing with large volumes of calls and customers

concerned. But seriously, the Telegraph says millions could have

filled in tax reforms incorrectly because HMRC fails to answer calls.

But the Chancellor, this could be toxic. At a time when you impose

significant cuts on working families, the fact your own

department does not appear to efficiently be able to raise taxes

is also a serious political issue. The Financial Times Read on that. We

will talk about this interesting story about Amazon. Of all things,

they have opened a good old-fashioned book shop. Reinventing

the wheel. It does make me chuckle. They are opening it in Seattle

weather is already a significant number of millionaires and

billionaires. This was covered in a magazine about ten years ago. People

are retiring at 35, 40 at -- with millions in the bank and starting

wonderful community projects around this North West corner. And they get

the benefit of these lovely communities. I worry about the rest

of the world where Independent book-sellers have died a quick death

and we have only looked at one place to thank for that. It is an

indication people still love physical books and they do not just

want to get books online. It reminds me of video killed the radio star.

Books clearly not been killed. This is just Amazon putting their toe in

the water and they may open more. It is also about the difference between

online and High Street. That is one of the things Amazon is interested

in, how do people behave differently in a shop? It is a very different

browsing experience. It will be interesting what Amazon found out. I

love the quote at the end that same is -- that says, a man from

Waterstones says he hopes it falls flat on its face! So no love lost.

Candy Crush Saga in a six billion dollars deal. Who are any of these

people? It is astonishing. I see in my social media feed and anybody who

invites me to play a game, I see that as a reason to block them, if

not permanently. 474 million users feel differently, hence the huge

numbers mentioned. That is why you are not Li Na. It must be. It is a

huge sale. When I saw the front page of the Financial Times, it struck me

these are companies that did not exist ten years ago, never mind

being on the front page to talk about these huge deals. It is

another example of the way the internet has transformed areas of

this is such as online retailing that did not exist. For now! Amazon

might bring us all back to old village squares, hopefully!

Finally, a sad story about Robin Williams, a great actor who many

millions of fans adored. The story of his suicide, a tragedy. The

Mirror suggesting it was not depression, it was dementia. He had

been suffering from depression for many years, it was well-documented.

His widow has given her first extended interview about the sad

circumstances of his death last year and she has revealed he had been

previously diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and he was

undergoing neurocognitive testing and was due to visit a presidential

faculty to be tested and she said that he was looking at another three

years of life and they would be difficult and he must have felt his

options were getting more limited. It does not make the story better

but it sheds light on the tragic circumstances. And it rings the bell

that mental health is very important. We will talk again in one

hour. Thank you. Back at half eleven for another

look at the stories making the news tomorrow.
