:00:16. > :00:19.With me are Rashid Razaq, culture correspondent for the
:00:20. > :00:21.London Evening Standard, and Caroline Wheeler, political
:00:22. > :00:33.They have both been brushing up on their timetables since I last saw
:00:34. > :00:36.them. The Observer leads with
:00:37. > :00:38.the story claiming that government budget cuts are almost doubling
:00:39. > :00:41.the number of homes considered as being at "significiant risk"
:00:42. > :00:43.of flooding within 20 years. The Sunday Times headlines
:00:44. > :00:45.an executive pay row, saying the Environment Agency's PR
:00:46. > :00:48.Chief left the organisation with a six-figure pay-off, despite
:00:49. > :00:51.a troubling week for the agency. The Sunday Express leads with
:00:52. > :00:53.the same story, saying senior managers at the
:00:54. > :00:56.Environment Agency have been awarded The Mail on Sunday features claims
:00:57. > :01:03.from Labour MP Simon Danczuk's first wife, that he made excessive sexual
:01:04. > :01:11.demands while they were married. Mr Danczuk denies all
:01:12. > :01:13.the allegations made against him. The Independent on Sunday's picture
:01:14. > :01:16.shows a woman in Bahrain protesting against Saudi Arabia's decision to
:01:17. > :01:18.execute 47 individuals, an act that The Sunday Telegraph reports that
:01:19. > :01:22.11-year-olds will be expected to know all their times tables
:01:23. > :01:38.when they leave primary school, We will start with the Sunday
:01:39. > :01:48.Express. You have written this story. A fury at flood fatcat
:01:49. > :01:51.bonuses. It comes as a courtesy of the freedom of information act. Many
:01:52. > :01:58.of your viewers know it is coming under attack. There have been moves
:01:59. > :02:03.to limit its scope. It has generated many interesting stories. As a
:02:04. > :02:08.journalist, I genuinely think that information is in the public
:02:09. > :02:18.interest, and otherwise will not be out there, is exposed day in and day
:02:19. > :02:21.out. In this instance, we found out that the Environment Agency,
:02:22. > :02:23.criticised for not doing enough to prevent flooding devastating parts
:02:24. > :02:29.of the North and threatening other parts of the country, have a death
:02:30. > :02:35.senior staff and directors ?300,000 in bonuses. That is despite the fact
:02:36. > :02:42.that we have seen their planning unfortunately come undone in many
:02:43. > :02:50.areas, like York, which are still under water. People's minds entitle
:02:51. > :02:57.them to bonuses. -- contracts. But people may question whether they are
:02:58. > :02:59.appropriate these days. These would have been paid before the recent
:03:00. > :03:07.flood. But I want to know what it was they did deemed successful. Why
:03:08. > :03:13.did they merit these bonuses? By any measure, most people would have
:03:14. > :03:24.thought they have failed. It is at a time of peak and shrink. -- a
:03:25. > :03:30.shrinking. We are seeing bonuses in some ways been used to top up
:03:31. > :03:36.salaries. -- pay shrinking. This is at a time when the funding for this
:03:37. > :03:44.could have been spent elsewhere, like propping up flood defence is.
:03:45. > :03:52.Anything that would have stopped these flooding is. -- defences. --
:03:53. > :03:56.floodings. Maybe they did something we don't know about. We asked them
:03:57. > :04:03.this and they did they cut back office costs and had been investing
:04:04. > :04:13.more on the frontline. These figures were standalone and were there to be
:04:14. > :04:21.seen. The Observer two. -- Observer. Ministers are warning of risk. The
:04:22. > :04:33.suggestion is we will see much more examples of flooding. This is really
:04:34. > :04:40.a leaked document. Almost twice as many households are read significant
:04:41. > :04:46.risk. -- are at. Repair for more of the same. They will have a rethink.
:04:47. > :04:55.-- Prepare. After that, they will think, we cannot allow this to
:04:56. > :05:01.happen again. The problem I have, having been in the lobby for 12
:05:02. > :05:04.years, I have seen many instances of flooding throughout the time I have
:05:05. > :05:12.been dead. There was often a knee-jerk reaction, more money
:05:13. > :05:19.pledged. -- there. Yet nothing changes about how we tackle this
:05:20. > :05:23.flooding. We have seen people, and again in this report, they have said
:05:24. > :05:30.they need to change their approach to managing the systems, to have a
:05:31. > :05:34.more long-term approach. That is the problem. We have a short-term
:05:35. > :05:38.approach. It rains, we say, we must bolster this flood defence, but
:05:39. > :05:44.actually we need to think further forward about what is happening in
:05:45. > :05:47.the age. You could turn the clock back and not build houses where they
:05:48. > :05:53.have built them. -- future. A high-stakes reshuffle. The Shadow
:05:54. > :06:05.Home Secretary, Hilary Benn, they were at God with the Syria air
:06:06. > :06:09.strikes. -- odds. He made that impassioned speech that many said
:06:10. > :06:16.was the best Westminster had been. He is a popular figure, Tony Benn's
:06:17. > :06:21.son, which make it difficult for Jeremy Corbyn to move him. He has
:06:22. > :06:24.one of the top jobs. It would be difficult to see where he could
:06:25. > :06:30.possibly move without exacerbating tensions within an already divided
:06:31. > :06:39.party. Who will replace an? Diane Abbott? -- him. Will that help
:06:40. > :06:42.Jeremy Corbyn? Another paper suggests that he will not let that
:06:43. > :06:47.happen. He will not let Diane Abbott take his job. Whether he has a
:06:48. > :06:52.choice of makes a stink about it will remain to be seen ex-Met.
:06:53. > :07:02.Independent on Sunday. -- next week. Danny. Saudi Arabia executing 47
:07:03. > :07:09.prisoners. -- Damn You. Tehran is protesting to the outrage around the
:07:10. > :07:14.world. But still, many hold on to their relationship with Saudi
:07:15. > :07:18.Arabia. -- protesting. The independent has taken an independent
:07:19. > :07:29.line. Why do we have to stay friends with these tyrants? But who has a
:07:30. > :07:33.better record, Iran or Saudi Arabia? It is much of a muchness. This is a
:07:34. > :07:39.political campaign. It is hard to be too is the worst. It is. This is an
:07:40. > :07:43.escalation of tension in that part of the world. They have shown muscle
:07:44. > :07:49.over this. Iran came out and said they would be a huge price to pay
:07:50. > :07:54.for this action. -- there would be. Immediately, Saudi Arabia responded.
:07:55. > :08:00.It is a tussle. We will have to see how it escalates over coming days.
:08:01. > :08:05.It isn't just in their backyard. There are proxy war is happening
:08:06. > :08:14.everywhere. Yemen, Bahrain, -- wars. The whole region. You have oil with
:08:15. > :08:20.the US and Russia. There are so many different machinations to this. This
:08:21. > :08:23.cleric, he is a symbol of that. But he isn't the cause of what we are
:08:24. > :08:29.talking about the plight a few similar pieces in the peak last
:08:30. > :08:39.night. -- about. How long can you keep justifying a relationship like
:08:40. > :08:46.this? -- papers. We have had to justify the relationship with them
:08:47. > :08:50.before. Whether it is appropriate to continue that relationship. It
:08:51. > :08:55.raises some prospects about our role in the world. However, I question
:08:56. > :09:00.what kind of influence we have any more in that particular path of the
:09:01. > :09:08.world and region. -- part. David Cameron has not been silent on this
:09:09. > :09:13.matter, he has been very clear that Britain does oppose any country with
:09:14. > :09:16.a death penalty. I think it is questionable to attacking on that.
:09:17. > :09:22.Very quickly, a look at the Sunday times. The Prime Minister must go if
:09:23. > :09:27.he loses the EU vote, according to ministers and. A difficult time for
:09:28. > :09:35.David Cameron, trying to renegotiate the relationship with the EU. --
:09:36. > :09:41.ministers. This is a warning shot to him. He stakes so much of his
:09:42. > :09:48.political capital on this. If he loses, he knows he will not be able
:09:49. > :09:55.to stay. He has been pressed on it. This story is really saying that
:09:56. > :10:01.cabinet ministers are saying, let's give him a free vote, but they were,
:10:02. > :10:05.you are more vulnerable. To make a campaign to stay in and lose. The
:10:06. > :10:09.Telegraph. A couple of stories. People must know their times tables
:10:10. > :10:13.at the age of 11 before moving to secondary school. In many parts of
:10:14. > :10:19.the country. Pretty important things, aren't they, times tables. I
:10:20. > :10:27.know in the last hour I put him on the spot and embarrassed us all. --
:10:28. > :10:32.timestables. You need to use them every day. I totally agree with you.
:10:33. > :10:39.What worries me is this talk about returning to traditional teaching
:10:40. > :10:41.methods. In my head I see a story with a teacher standing at the board
:10:42. > :10:46.with a ruler making everyone chanced their times tables. That is not a
:10:47. > :10:52.constructive way to make people learn. But that is how, certainly
:10:53. > :10:57.because I have been involved with, that is how they do teach. You
:10:58. > :11:04.unpack it all and understand what it means. And you never forget it. Do
:11:05. > :11:13.you? Please don't put me on the spot again. It is an easy thing that may
:11:14. > :11:20.look impressive. Saying your times tables. But is it important? I don't
:11:21. > :11:27.know. I am not good at maths. I wouldn't be an expert. And look at
:11:28. > :11:35.you, still with us, writing for the Standard. People seem to not be able
:11:36. > :11:41.to get enough of these children. George and Charlotte. What is he
:11:42. > :11:46.saying he? A lovely story. -- here. I am not usually a royalist. Even
:11:47. > :11:55.though you work for the Express. I am reckoned that. It is a lovely
:11:56. > :12:01.story. -- I am rare in that. This, rates the 40th anniversary of the
:12:02. > :12:06.Princes trust. He talks about his fatherhood. -- Trust. It has made
:12:07. > :12:12.him more emotional and he sees life is more precious. --. It seems that
:12:13. > :12:23.William and Harry have enough sibling relationships. --
:12:24. > :12:29.relationship. In the letters, they both decided it was drivel. It is
:12:30. > :12:37.nice to know that even Princes take the meat out of their father. I wish
:12:38. > :12:42.I had a sibling to do the same. -- mick. I hope you come back again and
:12:43. > :12:50.we didn't scare you away. That is it. Coming up next, Click. We look
:12:51. > :12:58.back at some of the best reports in 2015, including drone racing, in the
