after the Papers. Hello and welcome to

our look ahead to what the papers With me are the writer Natalie

or niqab, The Telegraph says the government is

backing higher council tax charges in flood risk areas,

to pay for improved defences. The Daily Mail reports on the cases

of three more children, who it claims died after allegedly being

failed by the NHS 111 helpline. The Express says many people will

after cashing in their pensions with And the Sun has a picture

:01:15.:01:17.

of what it says is the winning lottery ticket that was

:01:18.:01:21.

put in the wash by a someone in Worcester who is now trying to

:01:22.:01:24.

claim their share of the jackpot. The Guardian says Ofsted is to get

:01:25.:01:39.

tough on schools that allow girls to wear the full veil. What is this

:01:40.:01:45.

about? This seems to be the latest in a series of nudges from people in

:01:46.:01:50.

power directed at schools. Perhaps increasing examples of pupils as

:01:51.:01:55.

well as teachers wearing the veil. The Prime Minister said he thought

:01:56.:02:02.

they were sensible rules, and now we have the chief inspector of schools

:02:03.:02:04.

who says he is determined to stand up on the side of those who do want

:02:05.:02:12.

it, to restrict the wearing of the veil. He is saying that schools

:02:13.:02:15.

which allow the wearing of the veil, and where it can be shown to

:02:16.:02:24.

hinder effective teaching, are inadequate. The chief inspector

:02:25.:02:29.

seems to be wanting to nudge schools into the direction of not wanting

:02:30.:02:32.

the veil but it is government policy to allow schools to do what they

:02:33.:02:36.

want. Is that what the government is trying to do? Nudge them into not

:02:37.:02:42.

wearing the veil? I think so. There seems to be a fear that perhaps as

:02:43.:02:46.

more schools go in the direction of allowing the wearing of the veil,

:02:47.:02:55.

the government... There is nothing in Parliament to prevent a state

:02:56.:02:57.

school making the wearer not the veil pulser he -- the wearing of the

:02:58.:03:06.

veil compulsory. All the government can do and the chief inspector is

:03:07.:03:15.

try to imply. Why doesn't the government just Bennett like France

:03:16.:03:34.

did? -- ban it? It seems that they're not trying to make a small,

:03:35.:03:39.

secular pushback. It is a very strange set of stories to have 24

:03:40.:03:43.

hours apart. A very strange story and hopefully we will get more

:03:44.:03:48.

clarity on that in the weeks ahead. The Times, Roma covers its jewels

:03:49.:04:11.

for the Iran visit -- Rome. Venus has been put in a box. And the horse

:04:12.:04:21.

has bits that are offensive. It is the nudity which is problematic,

:04:22.:04:24.

rather than the fact that technically these statues are both

:04:25.:04:27.

called. Marcus Israeli as was deified by his successors which is

:04:28.:04:34.

what happens when you are a good emperor -- Aurelius. But this Iran

:04:35.:04:43.

visit includes a trip to the Pope. I suppose this means you need to be

:04:44.:04:51.

deified because Venus got no consideration. Iran has got

:04:52.:04:57.

gazillions of dollars in the welcome mat is being laid out all over the

:04:58.:05:02.

world. And if that means covering up your gods, so be it. I was amused by

:05:03.:05:08.

the fact that they were worried that the Arabian president would stand

:05:09.:05:10.

too close to the horse whose genitals are clearly visible. It

:05:11.:05:16.

makes you wonder what they do with forces in Iran. Also the president

:05:17.:05:22.

went to university in Glasgow, so he has seen worse. He has probably seen

:05:23.:05:29.

enough flesh to last a lifetime. He is perhaps even eaten a deep-fried

:05:30.:05:36.

Mars bar. And she's getting upset by bits? The good news is, Marcus

:05:37.:05:40.

Aurelius had a good sense of humour, he would've accepted it all.

:05:41.:05:46.

Everyone is beating the door for Tehran now. They have come in from

:05:47.:05:52.

the cold, the sanctions has been lifted -- have, and they have $150

:05:53.:06:00.

billion in assets. They can now spend that. And when they start

:06:01.:06:03.

selling oil, they will realise it is not worth that much anymore. Italy

:06:04.:06:09.

used to be Iran's biggest trading partner and it's gone from 7 billion

:06:10.:06:17.

euros a year to 1.6. They want all that cash back now. Talking about

:06:18.:06:23.

cash. The Google conspiracy, Tories have 25 meetings with firm before

:06:24.:06:32.

chief tax deal. One of the most amusing aspect of this, is on

:06:33.:06:39.

Saturday, the chancellor came out at almost announced the deal with

:06:40.:06:45.

Google believing that it would work for him. Little did he know. He's

:06:46.:06:51.

been known as the submarine, when anything wrong, he will submerge for

:06:52.:06:55.

long periods and now he is fully submerged. The Daily Mirror story

:06:56.:07:00.

alleges that there were a series of cosy meetings between top Tories and

:07:01.:07:08.

Google, perhaps there was a very small amount of tax that they pay.

:07:09.:07:12.

It does say there is no suggestion any rules were broken and a broad

:07:13.:07:16.

range of topics were discussed and you can imagine there were many

:07:17.:07:19.

reasons why government ministers would want to meet Google. I'm not

:07:20.:07:25.

sure the Daily Mirror is floating the idea of a conspiracy. The

:07:26.:07:31.

chancellor seem to believe it was a significant sum of money that we

:07:32.:07:35.

would be grateful for. They are keen to try to make this a personal

:07:36.:07:41.

crisis for George Osborne. The fact is, the French managed to get twice

:07:42.:07:45.

as much out of Google. It is depressing. Three times as much. We

:07:46.:07:55.

don't seem to be quite as good at negotiating as people who are

:07:56.:07:59.

renowned around the world for shrugging. Probably the single worst

:08:00.:08:04.

thing about this is timing. If you are self-employed, I am sure you did

:08:05.:08:07.

your taxes months and months ago but possibly you might have left them

:08:08.:08:12.

till today. In which case, it is very painful to sit down and work

:08:13.:08:15.

out how much you owe and then work out proportionately how much Google

:08:16.:08:19.

is paying. It is hard not to feel a little grouchy. I don't know what

:08:20.:08:29.

you mean, I paid mine ages ago. The Times, pharmacies face closure?

:08:30.:08:39.

Yes. The Times has got a headline which feels a bit cutting against

:08:40.:08:43.

the grain because we know that it is difficult to get a GP appointment

:08:44.:08:47.

recently, and also that the public is trying to push -- the government

:08:48.:08:52.

is try to push more and more people to go to pharmacies when they can,

:08:53.:08:56.

so why on earth are they going to close? But apparently there are too

:08:57.:09:03.

many of them. 40% of pharmacies are in clusters where there are at least

:09:04.:09:09.

three other pharmacies within a ten minute walk. That does seem like a

:09:10.:09:13.

lot. The result appears to be there will be a huge funding cuts and as

:09:14.:09:18.

many as 3000 pharmacies will close. We could debate whether that is too

:09:19.:09:21.

many were too few but the story points out that if pharmacies do

:09:22.:09:26.

close, it will probably not be a big change. Probably likely to be

:09:27.:09:31.

smaller, independent pharmacies. I'm thinking about it, on the street

:09:32.:09:35.

where I live there is a number of pharmacies within 25 yards, three I

:09:36.:09:46.

think. That's right, you could get as many drugs as you could legally.

:09:47.:09:55.

Or vitamin supplements. Ten minutes is a long way if you are not feeling

:09:56.:10:00.

well or if you have an injury. If you have a sprained ankle, you don't

:10:01.:10:03.

want to go to Accident and Emergency, so it is precisely the

:10:04.:10:09.

kind of thing that would be a good idea to die treated at a pharmacy

:10:10.:10:13.

and that could be difficult. Sure. Moving on to the Express. Keep on

:10:14.:10:25.

working until you are 18. People are cashing in on their pensions early

:10:26.:10:40.

-- 80. 700,000 people have already cashed them in. There are

:10:41.:10:44.

long-running fears that that means they will have nothing to retire

:10:45.:10:52.

on. I suppose that is slightly different to the idea of keeping on

:10:53.:10:56.

working. This doesn't mean the state pension rate is going to rise

:10:57.:10:58.

further in terms of age. That is already gone up to 67 which is

:10:59.:11:06.

controversial enough. But if you continue to continue working until

:11:07.:11:12.

-- if you choose to continue working until you are 80, that is another

:11:13.:11:18.

thing. Positive news, new analysis reveals financial planners say 100

:11:19.:11:23.

is the new 80, said you will have to keep working until you are 80

:11:24.:11:29.

because you are going to live until you are 100. Does that mean 80 is

:11:30.:11:47.

the new 60? Yes. I think this actress exemplifies that. I love her

:11:48.:11:54.

with all my heart. Would you work until you are 80? I'm self-employed

:11:55.:11:57.

so I'm probably going to have to. I will still have my job. I don't

:11:58.:12:02.

think that many people will be working until they are 80. It looks

:12:03.:12:08.

a little bit like you heat of killing me before I get

:12:09.:12:13.

a little bit like you heat of killing me before I there. Going to

:12:14.:12:23.

the Guardian briefly Parliament faces -- briefly. Parliamentary MPs

:12:24.:12:31.

are going to have to move to temporary accommodation because of

:12:32.:12:34.

refurbishment. This is close to home, this is where my desk is. I

:12:35.:12:40.

wouldn't expect anyone to feel sorry for me or anyone else, but the place

:12:41.:12:44.

is falling apart and everyone except that at some point, MPs are going to

:12:45.:12:48.

have to be about. The only question is when, where and if everyone was

:12:49.:12:54.

out at the same time. What's new about this story is that suggests

:12:55.:13:00.

that the MPs move down the road into Whitehall where the Department of

:13:01.:13:05.

Health is, and they would vacate Parliament completely for six years.

:13:06.:13:08.

And peaceful fight that tooth and nail. There are so many MPs at

:13:09.:13:13.

Westminster who are dead set against that idea -- MPs will fight that

:13:14.:13:21.

tooth and nail. They think they will lose the prestigious of working

:13:22.:13:30.

where they do -- prestige. The Sun, an exclusive. A mixup with the

:13:31.:13:41.

lottery? This woman has the right numbers, but not necessarily

:13:42.:13:46.

conveniently, all the distinction marks appear to been removed. The

:13:47.:13:50.

numbers are pleasingly legible but the barcodes which would identify it

:13:51.:13:57.

as a legitimate ticket are missing. I suppose we will have to wait and

:13:58.:14:00.

see. She is irate about being outed as a grandmother. She looks pretty

:14:01.:14:09.

young. 48. I would be feeling pretty good about myself. She probably

:14:10.:14:15.

didn't get to choose the headlines. The sad thing is by the time this

:14:16.:14:22.

story plays out, it takes six months, that is what you have got to

:14:23.:14:27.

test all the claims, and by the time that happens it will all have

:14:28.:14:35.

slipped our minds. ?33 million. I wouldn't have to work until I was AG

:14:36.:14:45.

after all -- 80. I think it is a brilliant image. It looks like the

:14:46.:14:48.

shroud of Turin.
