Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be | :00:00. | :00:18. | |
With me are James Rampton, features writer for the Independent. | :00:19. | :00:28. | |
And the academic and former government policy adviser, | :00:29. | :00:32. | |
Much fancier, James you could learn a thing or two! We can look at the | :00:33. | :00:43. | |
front pages. The Metro leads with the video | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
released by so-called Islamic State which shows the execution of five | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
individuals who they claim The Guardian newspaper has the same | :00:49. | :01:05. | |
story and also mentions an English-speaking boy in the video. | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
The Telegraph also covers the video by the terrorist group - | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
with an image of the militant pointing a gun towards the camera. | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
The BBC has decided not to show the image. | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
The Independent reports on criticism facing David Cameron for failing | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
to condemn the Saudi Arabian killings yesterday. | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
The i headlines plans by the Government to fast-track | :01:24. | :01:31. | |
The Express is warning of a pensions crisis that could last for 20 years | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
as employers struggle to meet their liabilities and stump | :01:39. | :01:40. | |
And in the Daily Mail... Quite a few papers feature the video said to | :01:41. | :01:54. | |
have been put online by IS. Difficult to independently | :01:55. | :02:03. | |
authenticated it. But here it is. In the Metro. We know the man | :02:04. | :02:13. | |
previously known as Jihadi John was killed a few weeks ago. It seems | :02:14. | :02:23. | |
somebody has stepped into his place. He was able to produce propaganda | :02:24. | :02:33. | |
videos and clearly Daesh has replace this person because videos do get | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
watched. This is about ten minutes long, five men are reported to have | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
been murdered. Potentially they are British, or British spies. The | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
person speaking is said to have an English accent, which is why we | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
stress it might be a new Jihadi John. And also there is a boy is | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
speaking with an English accent. Child soldiers are nothing new in | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
the world, but for terrorism it is perhaps something new, something new | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
for Daesh to be using. We do not know when it happened. People going | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
back to work tomorrow, perhaps reading newspapers for the first | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
time after the holidays, this will perhaps work in their favour. These | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
people are accused of spying for Britain. There is no proof they were | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
British, no proof they were spying. Difficult to authenticate. If that | :03:28. | :03:35. | |
man was killed because of intelligence coming into the group, | :03:36. | :03:42. | |
that might explain why people are being picked out as spies. Mrs | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
Thatcher talked about the oxygen of publicity, demanding IRA members | :03:51. | :03:58. | |
were voiced by actors. But this is a massive story with potentially a | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
connection to this country and a shocking angle of a child making | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
threats to kill nonbelievers. There was footage, not verified, of young | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
boys killing people who were detained. To use a boy with a | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
British accent to issue threats and to call David Cameron an imbecile, a | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
slave of the White House, is a threat to this country, and that is | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
why we have to pay attention and give it credence, even if it is not | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
verified. It is making an impact. In the Guardian newspaper also, there | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
is a picture. Very difficult to to know who is going to this part of | :04:41. | :05:11. | |
the world. How has this child got there, has he been taken by someone | :05:12. | :05:21. | |
else? If these people are British we need to verify that because the | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
Foreign Office news today. There is sophisticated voiced recognition | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
technology and advanced computer programmes to try to trace people, | :05:33. | :05:41. | |
but even so it took months to identify Mohammed Emwazi. And also | :05:42. | :05:50. | |
this is saying David Cameron has been condemned for silence on | :05:51. | :05:57. | |
killings. It is interesting. Paddy Ashdown has hit the nail on the | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
head. The clash between the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam is | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
potentially as he says a greater threat to the west than anything IS | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
can pose. It is a huge issue, a massive issue exacerbated tonight by | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
Iran and Saudi cutting diplomatic relations. It means that the issue | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
will get stronger. And more potent in our lives. You know better than | :06:24. | :06:32. | |
us, having worked in government, what is going on diplomatically we | :06:33. | :06:38. | |
will not get to see? There is often a need for a public statement to be | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
made irrespective of what is going on behind closed doors. This is | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
nothing new. Tensions have been rising since Arab Spring. Bahrain's | :06:47. | :06:54. | |
Shia have been protesting every week on the streets. It will make more | :06:55. | :07:02. | |
sense now to say publicly who it is and in this case why it is Saudi | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
Arabia has done this. It will raise tensions in the world. That said, | :07:10. | :07:16. | |
with the politics of Saudi Arabia, Iran coming back into the fold... | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
This is more significant in the sense of there are British and | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
Allied troops in this part of the world and we need to pay attention | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
because we cannot see more tension rising. I want to move on. The | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
pledge to fast track building of new homes. This is in a bit... Nobody | :07:36. | :07:51. | |
says in a bid in normal life! We have been hearing about this for | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
years. Magical houses that will appear from nowhere. Brown field | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
sites. 30,000 affordable starter homes, putting aside ?1.2 billion | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
for this. It is coming out today where we are getting interested in | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
the news again that the Labour Party saying it is hiding the government's | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
failure in creating new homes. We know those of us in the south-east | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
the pressure on finding homes. I have three children and I am saying, | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
how will they afford to live in London? How am I going to make them | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
leave home? ! Or go to live somewhere more affordable because it | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
is pressurised and there has to be something done about it. Successive | :08:37. | :08:41. | |
governments have not tackled this. It is rich of the Labour Party to | :08:42. | :08:48. | |
say this when they have not. 30,000 new homes when we know we need a | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
quarter of a million new homes. It pales into whatever the reality is. | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
The line is they will be starter homes that are affordable. I do not | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
know who it is affordable for. A couple of stories in the Daily | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
Telegraph with Poland perhaps backing EU benefit curb in return | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
for Nato troops deal. The Polish Foreign Minister saying they might | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
be willing to throw David Cameron a lifeline in exchange for something. | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
In exchange for a Nato base in Poland. That is quite a compromise. | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
I am sure the Prime Minister will be happy but there will be opposition | :09:33. | :09:40. | |
from Germany and France. This is not just for the UK to say, that we can | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
agree that, other Nato powers have to have a say. Nato is a separate | :09:46. | :09:53. | |
organisation. It is bizarre. In this febrile atmosphere, is it wise to be | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
like this saying we will do that? It is not the most passive state, one | :09:58. | :10:08. | |
saying we are happy to see that on our doorstep. It is pie in the sky | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
to think the government can make this almost behind closed doors deal | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
and think no one else will, it. It is not behind closed doors. It is on | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
the front page! But without reference to other countries. | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
Downton Abbey has finished, which is on the other side and we should not | :10:31. | :10:36. | |
talk about that! The BBC has come out fighting with an adaptation of | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
war and peace. Have you read it? No. Now we do not need to. God bless | :10:43. | :10:51. | |
Andrew Davies, responsible for many adaptations, such as Brideshead | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
revisited. Wonderful adaptations. He has distilled a 1400 page novel into | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
six hours of TV. It stars somebody from Downton Abbey. Certain papers | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
complained the licence fee is a waste of money but if you watch the | :11:08. | :11:13. | |
six hours of this drama, and I have been on the set in Lithuania, seeing | :11:14. | :11:20. | |
an incredible re-creation of the Battle of Borodino, a key battle of | :11:21. | :11:29. | |
the Napoleonic wars. 50 horses, singing a Russian liturgy. If you do | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
not think about is worth the licence, you are barking up the | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
wrong tree. An extraordinary piece of work that justifies the licence | :11:39. | :11:45. | |
fee for me. Other TV channels are available, but we do not recommend | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
them! Going back to the Independents. Ben Stokes has come to | :11:51. | :11:59. | |
attention because, it says, Big Ben strikes. Hitting the fastest double | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
century in Tess history. An amazing achievement. A world record for a | :12:05. | :12:12. | |
double century and playing South Africa that cannot be an easy task. | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
We should hold onto him. Normally when they set records, they go to | :12:19. | :12:25. | |
India and join the IPL. He is a great British hero, a cliche, but he | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
had Apache run of form recently but today he exploded. South Africa the | :12:32. | :12:45. | |
number one Tess side. -- Test. He hit 11 sixes, a world record. And he | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
is English. Well done, Ben Stokes. We will talk about that later. | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
Further now, you will have a terrible cup of coffee in the | :12:57. | :13:00. | |
newsroom. We will see you at 11:30pm. Stay with us, at 11 we have | :13:01. | :13:09. | |
the latest on the breakdown on diplomatic relations between Iran | :13:10. | :13:11. | |
and Saudi Arabia. | :13:12. | :13:15. |
