:00:15. > :00:16.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers
:00:17. > :00:20.With me are Sue Matthias, the Senior News Projects Editor
:00:21. > :00:22.at the Financial Times and James Millar, the Westminster
:00:23. > :00:28.The Daily Express leads with the words of the president
:00:29. > :00:31.of the European parliament, aimed at Britain ahead of the EU
:00:32. > :00:38.The Financial Times says Britain's biggest companies are unprepared
:00:39. > :00:40.for a possible British exit from the European Union.
:00:41. > :00:43.The Times says private schools are in crisis, because of rising
:00:44. > :00:48.It quotes the publisher of the Good Schools Guide, saying independent
:00:49. > :00:55.The Telegraph says the Moroccan-born daughter-in-law of Abu Hamza can't
:00:56. > :00:58.be deported from Britain because of a ruling by the European Court that
:00:59. > :01:11.She served a prison term for smuggling a SIM card to
:01:12. > :01:21.The Daily Mail has the banner headline, "Exodus".
:01:22. > :01:24.It says another 70,000 people are fleeing the fighting and heading for
:01:25. > :01:28.the Turkish border, "just one step away from Europe", as it puts it.
:01:29. > :01:36.We are going to start with the story about private schools. It is in the
:01:37. > :01:50.Guardian and also the Times, a slightly different slump in both
:01:51. > :01:56.papers. -- slant. Results and behaviour see big improvement. Good
:01:57. > :02:02.news and bad news, depending on where you send your kids? Good news
:02:03. > :02:06.for most people, because most people send their kids to state schools. It
:02:07. > :02:11.is a slightly odd story, because it is a good news story that state
:02:12. > :02:15.schools are getting better. Yet both papers have gone with, this is a bad
:02:16. > :02:29.thing for the private sector, rather than the possibly more positive spin
:02:30. > :02:35.on it. It is based on the good schools guide, put together by Ralph
:02:36. > :02:48.Lucas in the Guardian, Lord Lucas in the Times, interestingly. Justin on
:02:49. > :02:56.Twitter says that if that kind of story slows down the extent of long
:02:57. > :03:04.run above inflation school fee rises then good, but I doubt it. Supply
:03:05. > :03:11.and demand, I suppose. Will they drop their prices? It is picked up
:03:12. > :03:17.in the Times, which does report on two decades of above inflation rises
:03:18. > :03:23.in fees, which is pushing private education beyond the reach of the
:03:24. > :03:28.middle earners, and that is really the nub of the story when it comes
:03:29. > :03:33.down to it. The private schools are pricing themselves out of the
:03:34. > :03:38.market, combined with a massive increase in standards across the
:03:39. > :03:44.state sector. And not just in London, interestingly, where that is
:03:45. > :03:53.received quite a lot of attention. It is not confined to London. In the
:03:54. > :03:57.Times, private schools in crisis, hundreds face closure as parents
:03:58. > :04:03.teach fees and opt for state schools. About a year ago, in the
:04:04. > :04:07.aftermath of the crunch, some schools were having to look at the
:04:08. > :04:11.idea of going into the state sector, perhaps as academy schools or free
:04:12. > :04:18.schools. Exactly, and another thing I think it is a pattern is that
:04:19. > :04:23.parents who choose independent schools will stick with it up to
:04:24. > :04:31.secondary level, and then find that often they have a very strong sixth
:04:32. > :04:40.form college education, which is really strong. It is slicing away
:04:41. > :04:46.from the top as well. It is a bit rich, if you will excuse the pun,
:04:47. > :04:52.that these schools live by the capitalist system, you have to pay
:04:53. > :04:56.for them. A lot of them do, many of them have charitable foundations.
:04:57. > :05:01.Most of them, you have to pay for the education. I'm sorry, and I know
:05:02. > :05:05.this for sure, a lot of them offer bursaries and scholarships. But that
:05:06. > :05:10.is replacing the fees, somebody still has to pay the fee, and now
:05:11. > :05:15.they are having more competition and they are worried this is putting
:05:16. > :05:18.them out of business. The deal is you improve your standards and then
:05:19. > :05:23.you survive, that is how the capitalist system works. There is
:05:24. > :05:30.also a line in one of these reports that says that despite this, private
:05:31. > :05:34.school pupil numbers have never been higher. So this effect is obviously
:05:35. > :05:43.going to take a while to come through, so we mustn't shed too many
:05:44. > :05:48.tears right now. I don't think the independent system is going anywhere
:05:49. > :05:58.in a hurry. I am shocked at the lack of balance, the pair of you. The
:05:59. > :06:04.Independent, why are you laughing? I will provide the balance! I think
:06:05. > :06:09.this is probably the best of the front-page stories. The five
:06:10. > :06:11.Challenger banks were set up to provide more competition to make the
:06:12. > :06:20.banks behave themselves, and they are being run by Fred Goodwin's
:06:21. > :06:24.coterie, the people who are running RBS, you may remember crash the
:06:25. > :06:28.economy. He turned out to be fantastically bad that his job, and
:06:29. > :06:31.the people who were working with him are now running these Challenger
:06:32. > :06:35.banks. It is not hard to find people who would be better at running them,
:06:36. > :06:39.because you just find people who haven't crashed the economy? Can you
:06:40. > :06:47.blame them for his mistakes? He wasn't solely to blame at RBS for
:06:48. > :06:52.crashing the economy, he did have a large role in it though. Surely we
:06:53. > :06:57.can find people in the country who have not worked for RBS can a bank,
:06:58. > :07:07.there must be? The revelation was called " disturbing". They said
:07:08. > :07:12.mistakes had drained the Exchequer of billions of pounds, and that
:07:13. > :07:23.would not be repeated. It doesn't look good, doesn't? I think Martine
:07:24. > :07:26.has a point, of these individuals -- each of these individuals are good
:07:27. > :07:33.bankers and executives in their own right, but it doesn't look good.
:07:34. > :07:43.Hasn't the sector changed quite a lot since it all went wrong? Yes, it
:07:44. > :07:50.is a great story, because it makes you drop your post over breakfast.
:07:51. > :07:53.You will wonder how these people survived the crash and seem to be
:07:54. > :08:02.flourishing despite what happened. Surprise, surprise. Lex look at the
:08:03. > :08:14.FT. -- let's look at the FT. Few contingency plans among FTSE groups,
:08:15. > :08:17.large companies want to lie low. What is going on? Do you think these
:08:18. > :08:28.companies feel they don't need to worry about a Brexit? The FT has
:08:29. > :08:32.done a survey of the FTSE 100, and it turns out that only four of them
:08:33. > :08:39.were prepared to say they were engaging in any kind of detailed
:08:40. > :08:43.planning. Vodafone said that no planning of note was required. So,
:08:44. > :08:49.either they are coming over as pretty complacent, or they really
:08:50. > :08:54.don't think there is anything very much to worry about. Those are the
:08:55. > :09:01.only two possible conclusions. It is very interesting. In a way, you
:09:02. > :09:06.might say this is a steady as you go reassuring, this business is happy,
:09:07. > :09:11.David Cameron will be happy with these comments. I wonder whether
:09:12. > :09:13.they think they have longer than they have, it won't happen in the
:09:14. > :09:19.summer and they will get themselves organised just in case. I think they
:09:20. > :09:32.don't think it is going to happen. The out campaign will be happy with
:09:33. > :09:37.this. They will think that this means the establishment is
:09:38. > :09:39.complacent. Here we have the establishment being painted as
:09:40. > :09:44.taking for granted that they will not be a Brexit. The league campaign
:09:45. > :09:52.will be happy with this, because they will say, these guys think they
:09:53. > :09:54.are going to be OK, and they will try to fire up their supporters by
:09:55. > :10:00.giving the establishment of bloody nose. In the final paragraph it is
:10:01. > :10:08.pointed out that while no FTSE company said it wanted Britain to
:10:09. > :10:17.leave, only 18 said that they backed continuing membership. It is hard to
:10:18. > :10:25.predict, they haven't really come out... Abu Hamza and latest blow to
:10:26. > :10:31.UN sovereign tree. Terrorist daughter-in-law cannot it reported
:10:32. > :10:34.due to human rights. Can we have some background? It is another EU
:10:35. > :10:43.referendum story in a roundabout way. This is the daughter-in-law of
:10:44. > :10:46.Abu Hamza, smuggled a sim card to him in jail, which is not the worst
:10:47. > :10:50.crime, but he is a particularly nasty character, so it is a bad
:10:51. > :10:54.thing to have done. He was eventually sent to America. He was,
:10:55. > :10:59.where he has been jailed for a long time. She was jailed for a year. The
:11:00. > :11:09.European Court of justice, which is the UN -- EU Court, says that she
:11:10. > :11:20.cannot be deported because she has the right to family life. The out
:11:21. > :11:23.campaign is piling in saying that it means Britain cannot make its own
:11:24. > :11:29.laws. The timing is brilliant, especially for the Daily Telegraph.
:11:30. > :11:33.He has Abu Hamza, the most hated man in Britain, the European court of
:11:34. > :11:43.justice making an appalling decision yet again, according to the
:11:44. > :11:50.Telegraph. And it all comes to a wonderful climax at the end of this
:11:51. > :11:56.week. It comes down to the issue of you can pick and choose who you are
:11:57. > :11:59.allowed to give human rights. Yes, and newspapers are not very good at
:12:00. > :12:05.dealing with the nuance of these cases. Although, this one is
:12:06. > :12:11.particularly badly timed, and obviously there is an issue with
:12:12. > :12:17.this, but most people will think this is not a great decision by the
:12:18. > :12:31.European court of justice. On the face of it, it is probably are bad
:12:32. > :12:38.one. That is why we have checks and balances, so that everybody has the
:12:39. > :13:13.laws applied to them. The Guardian, the Democrats, the test of... The
:13:14. > :13:26.Clintons are getting a taste of the GOP treatment. This is an analysis
:13:27. > :13:32.of the Clinton Sanders situation, that Sanders is being hailed as
:13:33. > :13:37.authentic and drawing an enormous amount of support from young
:13:38. > :13:41.voters. He only joined the Democrats last year, he was independent before
:13:42. > :13:49.that. The question raised at the end of this is, is he at all electable?
:13:50. > :13:52.If not, why is he dead, and making a comparison with Jeremy Corbyn. That
:13:53. > :13:59.is why it is on the front page of the Guardian. It is about Jeremy
:14:00. > :14:02.Corbyn, really. We think what is going on in the Labour Party is
:14:03. > :14:06.somehow unique to the Labour Party, but it is not, it is a worldwide
:14:07. > :14:13.phenomenon of people looking for the outsider candidate. Hillary Clinton
:14:14. > :14:18.is not an outsider, but she is electable. I think she said
:14:19. > :14:24.progressive 15 times. A lot of the Twitter feeds on the night of this
:14:25. > :14:29.face-off were criticising Bernie Sanders' lack of foreign policy, and
:14:30. > :14:42.saying that he just doesn't have the experience. What am I allowed to
:14:43. > :14:48.call people? Clinton is the real deal, and he is having his moment,
:14:49. > :14:52.but as it says at the end, if he wins the nomination he might as well
:14:53. > :14:57.hand the Republicans the keys to the White House right now, I strongly
:14:58. > :15:04.suspect that is the case. But then the Republicans have their own
:15:05. > :15:09.issue... Astronaut Tim Peake prepares for England and Scotland's
:15:10. > :15:11.Six Nations clash today. The match will be beamed live to the
:15:12. > :15:16.International Space Station, and another costume change for Tim
:15:17. > :15:22.Peake. This will confuse the Russians, do they do rugby? I like
:15:23. > :15:27.it because you have the English flag in the Scottish flag, and his wife
:15:28. > :15:31.is Scottish. That has not been mentioned, but he has clearly nailed
:15:32. > :15:38.his colours to the mast, as it were. The annual fallout is being
:15:39. > :15:52.avoided by him being in space. And as I said earlier, I think we have
:15:53. > :16:01.just about reached peak Peake. When you are tired of space menu are
:16:02. > :16:03.tired of life, I think. Thank you both, up next is Sportsday.
