:00:00. > :00:00.the darts. That is in 15 minutes after the papers -- rugby union

:00:00. > :00:13.schools. -- scores. Hello, and welcome to

:00:14. > :00:16.our look ahead to what the papers With me are Caroline Frost,

:00:17. > :00:20.the entertainment editor of the Huffington Post UK, and David

:00:21. > :00:22.Williamson, the political editor of Tomorrow's front pages,

:00:23. > :00:29.starting with: The Telegraph leads on what it calls

:00:30. > :00:33.the migrant backlash now afflicting Europe following the sexual assaults

:00:34. > :00:36.in Germany on New Year's Eve. The Guardian's top story is

:00:37. > :00:39.the sacking of the Cologne police chief for the way

:00:40. > :00:42.officers dealt with those attacks. The Independent says on its

:00:43. > :00:45.front page that British troops could face prosecution

:00:46. > :00:47.in connection with as many The Daily Mail has a different

:00:48. > :00:54.headline on the same story - the papers claim 280 British troops

:00:55. > :00:57.are being hounded in an Iraq War The Times has an interview

:00:58. > :01:02.with former shadow minister Michel Dugher, who claims

:01:03. > :01:05.Ken Livingstone is pulling the The Financial Times leads on

:01:06. > :01:10.plunging global stock markets, which it says have suffered their

:01:11. > :01:14.worst start to the year in decades. The Sun carries the story of a

:01:15. > :01:17.British mother who says she's suing New York State police

:01:18. > :01:32.for ?30 million because they seized We will begin with the Guardian and

:01:33. > :01:38.how it is covering the attacks in Cologne. Sex attacks in Cologne cost

:01:39. > :01:50.police chief job. Authorities say 18 asylum seekers were arrested. He has

:01:51. > :01:54.been encouraged to take early retirement because of this to

:01:55. > :02:01.restore public confidence. Yes, and it is a story that is mystifying.

:02:02. > :02:08.The facts are beginning to emerge, and the Guardian have done a great

:02:09. > :02:12.job of getting human stories. Someone had a firework in their

:02:13. > :02:19.three-year-old's Prem. It seems to have been a night of terror. There

:02:20. > :02:29.are so many and answered questions. The level of organisation, the level

:02:30. > :02:34.of intent. And the political and police murkiness. I think this will

:02:35. > :02:38.come out over months and months and we can expect lots of analysis over

:02:39. > :02:46.how it is being reported. The suggestion is they were a

:02:47. > :02:55.co-ordinator group. The media in Germany don't seem to be on stop of

:02:56. > :02:58.-- on top of this story. There are reports that the media colluded in

:02:59. > :03:02.keeping this secret. When I first heard this story, I felt he was

:03:03. > :03:08.being right to be circumspect, because it is so awful to start

:03:09. > :03:11.playing into everybody's fears about asylum seekers and how they may

:03:12. > :03:16.behave when they get to foreign lands, but the more you hear about

:03:17. > :03:22.the human cost, and women having to put a hand into a pram to protect a

:03:23. > :03:37.baby from a firework, can you imagine if this went on in London or

:03:38. > :03:40.intolerable behaviour. Any crime on any scale you would hope

:03:41. > :03:45.properly investigated, but the problem is 18 asylum seekers out of

:03:46. > :03:51.all of those thousands, tens of hundreds of thousands of people who

:03:52. > :03:56.have come seeking a safer life here, it is too easy to jump to

:03:57. > :04:00.conclusions quickly. Absolutely. In the back of people's memories are

:04:01. > :04:06.things like the disaster in New Orleans, have their work initial

:04:07. > :04:11.stories of crimes, and then wants people to into the reporting, flaws

:04:12. > :04:15.were found. People are rightly cautious about jumping into this

:04:16. > :04:21.again. But there needs to be some reporting. And a great deal of

:04:22. > :04:25.investigating. Migrants' sex attacks backlash, on this newspaper.

:04:26. > :04:31.Mounting anger over what has happened. Political tensions,

:04:32. > :04:35.cultural, societal tensions. Angela Merkel is facing tension in her own

:04:36. > :04:40.country from political opponents saying the way she has been treating

:04:41. > :04:47.the whole migrant crisis up to this point, and now this has happened.

:04:48. > :04:53.She is meanwhile trying to cover by calling for deportation, Swift

:04:54. > :04:56.punishment. Then there is the question of bread to these people so

:04:57. > :05:03.that punishments? Do you send them home to Syria? -- road to these

:05:04. > :05:10.people. Anybody who has committed a crime is in no way I been their

:05:11. > :05:16.cause. It plays into pre-existing fears and belief of opponents but

:05:17. > :05:23.there is no such thing as a multicultural Europe. Some of the

:05:24. > :05:30.leaders in the EU are saying that. A hungry -- a leader from Hungary

:05:31. > :05:36.saying you need these borders. You have these contrasting opinions

:05:37. > :05:39.between Angela Merkel and eastern European leaders like the Slovakian

:05:40. > :05:45.Prime Minister saying the liberal dream is dead. And speculation that

:05:46. > :05:52.these crimes could be repeated in Finland, in Helsinki. These gentle

:05:53. > :05:59.places. Livingstone running the Labour leadership on the Times. This

:06:00. > :06:05.is come from Michael Dugher, who lost his job in the reshuffle. He is

:06:06. > :06:12.not happy, and his descriptions of a bunch of far left anti-war former

:06:13. > :06:17.communists, who are apparently taking hold of the Labour Party.

:06:18. > :06:19.There is a narrative which Jeremy Corbyn's foes are keen to cement at

:06:20. > :06:30.this early stage, which is that Ken Livingstone is the puppet master and

:06:31. > :06:35.his new tenants have taken on new positions and he is the power behind

:06:36. > :06:39.the throne -- lieutenants. I imagine Jeremy Corbyn will have something to

:06:40. > :06:43.say about this. They are different characters in terms of tone, but it

:06:44. > :06:49.does feed into this narrative, which is that we have seen the hard left

:06:50. > :06:54.take over from within, and Michael Dugher surely will also in the

:06:55. > :07:00.coming months use his position on the backbenches to fire at every

:07:01. > :07:05.opportunity. And we have the Labour Party's struggles, the strife within

:07:06. > :07:11.the party on the front page. Not talking about the opposition.

:07:12. > :07:16.Absolutely not. It has been the chiding crisis, whether Jeremy

:07:17. > :07:21.Corbyn would apply the whip to his party members -- trident. This is a

:07:22. > :07:27.surprising rebranding of canoeist on. He has been this firebrand on

:07:28. > :07:37.the radio. -- Ken Livingstone. He has been a quiet person, staying out

:07:38. > :07:45.of the limelight as long as he can control. But I am enjoying the

:07:46. > :07:52.rebranding. I wonder if he is. 280 troops handed in Iraq while

:07:53. > :07:58.witch-hunt, Fury as soldiers are sent a legal threat. We will not

:07:59. > :08:04.look at in detail, but the Independent taking a different time

:08:05. > :08:11.and saying at least 55 deaths need to be investigated -- different

:08:12. > :08:16.time. It has been going on for a long time, this investigation into

:08:17. > :08:21.abuses in Iraq. One day, we might have a whole newspaper without the

:08:22. > :08:30.legacy of Iraqi being questioned and mulled over. There are different

:08:31. > :08:35.perspectives. The Independent saying a factual account where they have

:08:36. > :08:39.created a body investigation that have presented cases to their

:08:40. > :08:44.version of the Crown has it in, and the mall going in on the defensive

:08:45. > :08:50.saying this is unfair to veterans who have served their country -- the

:08:51. > :08:55.Mail. It cost a lot of money, but that is justice. In Northern

:08:56. > :09:00.Ireland, they have been historical enquiry teams. You look at the

:09:01. > :09:06.events of bloody Sunday, and so many decades on, the enormous

:09:07. > :09:11.repercussions. Britain does need to show it is accountable for its role

:09:12. > :09:15.around the world. The difficulty is these troops have this hanging over

:09:16. > :09:27.them and there is no and to it. It goes on and on. It must be a

:09:28. > :09:33.situation where any soldier stepping off a plane knowing this might

:09:34. > :09:39.happen down the line, it is probably different from World War Two when we

:09:40. > :09:45.had nothing. Even in Vietnam, where we had groundbreaking journalism, it

:09:46. > :09:53.was still a case of if there were reporters to see it. And now people

:09:54. > :09:56.do have smart phones. We have seen amazing reporting coming out of

:09:57. > :10:05.Syria. People brave enough to upload that they have shot themselves.

:10:06. > :10:13.Let's look at the Guardian. Pollution limit broken in London. We

:10:14. > :10:22.were supposed to be holding ourselves to account over this. My

:10:23. > :10:25.reaction is gulp. I remember a speed camera in London where consistently

:10:26. > :10:29.there were so many speed tickets eventually raise the limit of the

:10:30. > :10:36.road. I just wonder at what point they decide this is not able to be

:10:37. > :10:42.enforced. If these moments... Do they find every street? They said

:10:43. > :10:47.Oxford Street hit its limit after two days. It seems to be untenable.

:10:48. > :10:54.The monitoring station was broken. Just overloaded. At some point we

:10:55. > :11:03.have to get a grip on this. We need to meet these targets, that only a

:11:04. > :11:10.few weeks ago in Paris were set. There is a focus on carbon

:11:11. > :11:15.emissions, but it was not that long ago we talked about this being

:11:16. > :11:19.linked to diesel pollution. And now diesel is cheaper than it has been

:11:20. > :11:22.for a long time. Either we wait for Google to give us a electric cars,

:11:23. > :11:30.or we do something about diesel. Then you are interfering in a

:11:31. > :11:46.political fight. Page eight of the debris now. Smaller portions or face

:11:47. > :11:53.punishment. -- the Daily Mail. Suddenly a prospect of levies being

:11:54. > :11:58.introduced for food and drinks. One thing you would not expect and eight

:11:59. > :12:02.a Conservative government would be a nanny state. But the sugar is still

:12:03. > :12:06.there and people are still getting bigger. The chief medical officer

:12:07. > :12:15.has come out and they are cracking the whip. It is effectively like the

:12:16. > :12:22.Mary Poppins a lot Mrs Doubtfire solution, he comes the nanny to save

:12:23. > :12:26.the day. We have had a reaction with the alcohol advice as well. I do

:12:27. > :12:31.have questions. How successful have the absolute price hikes on

:12:32. > :12:37.cigarettes being in the last 10-15 years? ?10 for a packet of

:12:38. > :12:42.cigarettes, have sales diminished, our people healthier? I want to know

:12:43. > :12:47.it if there is a parallel I can draw on to see if this will succeed.

:12:48. > :12:53.People ultimately like cake. It could just be that adding another

:12:54. > :12:57.5p, I'm sure those levies Wolfie down to the consumer, but at what

:12:58. > :13:09.point does it become prohibitive or an incentive to say I will eat my

:13:10. > :13:13.greens. And there is portion size. How big is your plate? We have

:13:14. > :13:18.become a nation that has huge plates. You look at wedding lists

:13:19. > :13:29.and they want to eat things because there are tables. It off a side

:13:30. > :13:34.plate. There you go. -- eat. If we go back to the Times, which I

:13:35. > :13:39.inconveniently put away, the photo is of Alicia Vikander. We are

:13:40. > :13:44.talking about BAFTA nominations. This is the actress who has been in

:13:45. > :13:49.The Danish Girl with Eddie Redmayne, and a science-fiction

:13:50. > :13:57.thriller Ex Machina. She is supposed to be a fantastic actress. She is a

:13:58. > :14:06.supreme star of the future. She has only just begun and we are lucky to

:14:07. > :14:12.have her. She's from that stable of Scandinavian and textiles. There was

:14:13. > :14:16.all the talk of Eddie Redmayne's rate transformative powers, and then

:14:17. > :14:22.of course now we are saying what is the title even referred to? It could

:14:23. > :14:28.even referred to his wife. Allies are on Alicia Vikander, because she

:14:29. > :14:31.is nominated twice. -- all eyes. Some of the big films like Star Wars

:14:32. > :14:37.have not been recognised in the nominations you might have expected.

:14:38. > :14:44.Especially, as Britain went so wild over the last James Bond, which was

:14:45. > :14:51.seen as a critical and commercial fantasia. But Star Wars of course

:14:52. > :14:53.almost takes pride. It was delighting audiences and dismaying

:14:54. > :15:08.critics. I think James Cameron and Star Wars

:15:09. > :15:14.are famous for that, but they don't need the awards in a way that these

:15:15. > :15:15.other films do. People will flock to see them no matter what they wind or

:15:16. > :15:31.don't wind. . -- wind or don't win. Hello and welcome to Sportsday,

:15:32. > :15:36.I'm Lizzie Greenwood-Hughes, from behind in tonight's opening

:15:37. > :15:40.third round FA Cup tie, earning
