:00:19. > :00:21.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers

:00:22. > :00:25.With me are Matt McAllester, editor in chief at Newsweek magazine and

:00:26. > :00:30.John Kampfner, Chief Executive of the Creative Industries Federation.

:00:31. > :00:33.The Daily Mail leads on the pressure facing the Met Police over the

:00:34. > :00:39.The Guardian has an interview with Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe

:00:40. > :00:41.who says officer are considering rethinking the way officers deal

:00:42. > :00:53.After today's industrial action the i front page claims

:00:54. > :00:57.the NHS is planning to "break striking doctors".

:00:58. > :01:00.Multi-buy deals may be banned, is the Telegraph's headline.

:01:01. > :01:02.The paper says so-called 'misleading' supermarket offers

:01:03. > :01:03.could be scrapped by regulators within weeks.

:01:04. > :01:06.The FT reports on the head of the Federal Reserve telling Congress

:01:07. > :01:11.that persistent global market turbulence could set back US growth.

:01:12. > :01:13.And the Mirror says tumble dryer firms face being sued

:01:14. > :01:23.for millions of pounds over a spate of fires linked to faulty machines.

:01:24. > :01:33.A real mix of stories. The NHS strike dominates a lot of the

:01:34. > :01:38.papers, including the i. I suppose the latest development is kind of

:01:39. > :01:42.expected, that there is now a rumour that the government will force

:01:43. > :01:46.through the contracts. We were talking about this a few moments

:01:47. > :01:51.ago. It is one of those stories were the two sides can't even agree on

:01:52. > :02:02.the narratives. They can't agree on who is saying what and who is

:02:03. > :02:06.offering what. If it is straightforwardly that there can be

:02:07. > :02:12.a core salary in return for us eliminating the bonus you get

:02:13. > :02:16.working unsociable hours, but the overall package is the same, at

:02:17. > :02:26.least you have an idea of what they are talking about. I am increasingly

:02:27. > :02:31.of the view that when you look at people working here in shops, so

:02:32. > :02:34.many people do fleck Cialis, and the idea that that is somehow an affront

:02:35. > :02:44.to your liberty I'd struggle to understand. -- flex hours. I look at

:02:45. > :02:49.the reports of the 26,000 eligible junior doctors who would normally do

:02:50. > :02:54.a typical shift signed up for duty today. I think that is what has

:02:55. > :03:01.emboldened the government to at least threaten to push this through.

:03:02. > :03:09.43% on the second such strike suggests that that number is going

:03:10. > :03:21.to increase. If the deal falls through, the contract, we are on

:03:22. > :03:25.untrodden ground. Some doctors are threatening resignation if this

:03:26. > :03:28.happens, and it will be a victory legally and on paper for the

:03:29. > :03:32.government, but it won't be a political victory. They don't want

:03:33. > :03:37.to do this, it will be a lose lose situation. The two sides have forced

:03:38. > :03:42.themselves down this final and nobody is happy about it. The

:03:43. > :03:51.Guardian has lots of different lines coming from Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe,

:03:52. > :03:56.who has been talking about reviews into historical sex abuse

:03:57. > :04:02.allegations. The headline in the Guardian is that the Met signals a

:04:03. > :04:09.shift in attitude to rate victims, and how claims are to be

:04:10. > :04:13.investigated -- rape. This is the Met Commissioner writing a piece

:04:14. > :04:19.talking about how the assumptions of the last few years, which arose from

:04:20. > :04:30.the lamentable under reaction or non- reaction to decades of Jimmy

:04:31. > :04:35.Savile outrages then led to an assumption that victims should

:04:36. > :04:40.always be believed, just a categorical victim is believed, and

:04:41. > :04:46.therefore anything of it says must necessarily be properly

:04:47. > :04:54.investigated. Which then led to Leon Brittan allegations, and Lord

:04:55. > :05:01.Bramall and others besides. He is now saying, Bernard Hogan-Howe is

:05:02. > :05:07.now saying that we may be need to look at that again, and we look

:05:08. > :05:11.sympathetically at a victim as a victim coming forward particularly

:05:12. > :05:17.on historical allegations, but you don't necessarily assume that what

:05:18. > :05:23.they are saying is correct. It is not just police, it is teachers,

:05:24. > :05:26.friends, parents, they are always told that a victim feels they are

:05:27. > :05:33.believed so they can come forward. I think after this we will be hearing

:05:34. > :05:47.from victims' writes groups who will be extremely worried -- rights. I

:05:48. > :05:59.think they will be feeling sold out. The headlines on the Mail and

:06:00. > :06:08.the Sun are much less sympathetic. If the story in the Daily Mail is

:06:09. > :06:19.correct, saying that former chief of defence officer was having breakfast

:06:20. > :06:25.with his dying wife when police came into his home and searched all the

:06:26. > :06:31.rooms. It is very graphic. It ends with no charges being levelled, and

:06:32. > :06:39.these ongoing investigations, and in a few of those papers pretty gung-ho

:06:40. > :06:46.investigations, these are the same papers complaining following on from

:06:47. > :06:53.not just Jimmy Savile, but others. Either historically, or the whole

:06:54. > :06:57.Lord Jana situation, or others who have been sent to prison. He feel

:06:58. > :07:24.sorry for the police because they are damned if they do and damned if

:07:25. > :07:31.they don't. Paul Lamb -- one person who had allegations levelled against

:07:32. > :07:37.him, he has said that it has ruined their lives. I think the people who

:07:38. > :07:46.have suffered because they haven't been believed when they are genuine

:07:47. > :07:49.victims. That pain far outweighs what has happened to those who were

:07:50. > :07:54.wrongly accused. That is not to travel on their lives, but for

:07:55. > :08:00.decades and decades these people had not been able to come forward. Until

:08:01. > :08:12.they are charged should they be named? Police deny that they have

:08:13. > :08:16.been tipping off the media, but it comes from somewhere. The tactics

:08:17. > :08:24.are reported is to encourage other people to come forward by leaking

:08:25. > :08:28.the name early. It sounds like we need a review, and we might get one.

:08:29. > :08:36.Staying with the Guardian, an interesting picture of people rather

:08:37. > :08:44.than politicians. This is in America's political shift. This is

:08:45. > :08:50.the extraordinary rise of Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump in the New

:08:51. > :08:57.Hampshire primary, and Hillary Clinton was swept aside by 22

:08:58. > :09:01.percentage points. It is a huge gap. There is a lot of noise about

:09:02. > :09:05.whether it is the beginning of the end for her when the presidency, let

:09:06. > :09:11.alone the nomination, seemed within her grasp a few days ago. New

:09:12. > :09:16.Hampshire and Iowa have a history of throwing up candidates like Pat

:09:17. > :09:20.Buchanan a few years ago, he did superbly well. And Bernie Sanders

:09:21. > :09:27.really threw everything into New Hampshire. He is heading to South

:09:28. > :09:31.Carolina, where 50% of the Democratic primary voters are

:09:32. > :09:39.African-American. Hillary Clinton historically does very well in the

:09:40. > :09:44.African-American community. It is the beginning of a very long and

:09:45. > :09:46.compensated story. It is a great story because we are seeing

:09:47. > :09:55.antiestablishment, which we don't always see -- complicated. These are

:09:56. > :10:06.new and unexpected faces for someone like this. In America, here in the

:10:07. > :10:12.UK with Jeremy Corbyn, what is interesting in America is that it is

:10:13. > :10:20.on the left and the right. I never thought New Hampshire was a

:10:21. > :10:25.particular redneck all radical state, I always thought the New

:10:26. > :10:32.England states were a bit more cerebral, but look at how well

:10:33. > :10:35.Donald Trump has done! , licence plate in New Hampshire, it says live

:10:36. > :10:47.free or die, so there is a history of libertarianism and individualism.

:10:48. > :10:51.Whoever gets to the White House, the front page of the Financial Times.

:10:52. > :11:03.This is about the economy and keeping America going. Bank shares

:11:04. > :11:11.are tanking at the moment, stock markets are spiralling downwards.

:11:12. > :11:19.Janet Yellen was thinking last year that there would be a rate rise, the

:11:20. > :11:22.first in lots of years, 0.25%, but she announced then that this was

:11:23. > :11:30.going to be part of a gradual series of rate rises through 2016 and

:11:31. > :11:35.2017, and today already a whole series of indicators over the last

:11:36. > :11:40.several weeks since New Year showing that the American economy, the

:11:41. > :11:44.Chinese economy, and famously European economies, are not growing

:11:45. > :11:47.anywhere near as fast as was predicted, and the idea of having to

:11:48. > :11:56.raise rates in order to slow things down is looking to be a bit of a

:11:57. > :12:02.mistake. Didn't be an announcement today in effect some of the trading

:12:03. > :12:08.as well, which shows why we should care about this? It shows why we

:12:09. > :12:12.should, and the interconnectedness of the global economy. The centre of

:12:13. > :12:17.this story is China, and China's economy is what this impacting

:12:18. > :12:21.everything from the London housing market to short-term interest

:12:22. > :12:29.rates. The Daily Telegraph, one of its lead stories is that multi- buy

:12:30. > :12:36.deals may be banned. This is the only part of grocery shopping I like

:12:37. > :12:41.Mawhinney fear you are getting a bargain. These consumer stories sell

:12:42. > :12:51.well on newsstands. I am a sucker for this kind of them. -- thing. Buy

:12:52. > :12:56.one get one free, and you end up buying things just as the groups are

:12:57. > :13:04.quoted here as saying, you end up buying stuff you don't want and end

:13:05. > :13:09.up throwing some of it away. It is completely... Whenever it says 25%

:13:10. > :13:15.or 40% off, you don't know from what. Their rights on special offers

:13:16. > :13:23.where they are marked down, you can actually see the price. Is it the

:13:24. > :13:26.2-for-1 that they describe as misleading? Do you know that that

:13:27. > :13:34.price ever existed? It makes me happy thinking it did. The average

:13:35. > :13:40.person takes 0.4 seconds to decide what to buy, and there is a simple

:13:41. > :13:43.queue to this called the shopping list. If you go into the supermarket

:13:44. > :13:48.with a shopping list and stick to it and don't look to the left and the

:13:49. > :13:54.right then you will be fine. That is my top tip. Don't shop hungry, you

:13:55. > :14:02.always end up buying what you want it, not what you need. Let's look at

:14:03. > :14:06.the back page, which we don't usually do, the sport. This is a

:14:07. > :14:14.particularly momentous story. The Mirror. Give us the background to

:14:15. > :14:19.this. This follows the walkout on the weekend by fans over ticket

:14:20. > :14:38.hikes. The company that owns Liverpool announced new ticket

:14:39. > :14:45.prices for next season. The prices went up to ?77, which would take it

:14:46. > :14:48.out of the range of many fans. I have been a Chelsea fan for the last

:14:49. > :14:55.20 years and you see how football has taken itself away from the core

:14:56. > :15:01.supporters, certainly Premier League football is all about TV rights,

:15:02. > :15:07.maximising, crazy wages for an international galaxy of stars, and

:15:08. > :15:12.what some clubs have done is often to keep a certain section of the

:15:13. > :15:21.ground at cheaper rates so the real fans can still go. The fury among

:15:22. > :15:27.Liverpool fans at basically being fleeced on incredibly expensive,

:15:28. > :15:36.more expensive than the most expensive theatre tickets, for a

:15:37. > :15:42.game of football... In Liverpool, where earnings are not as high as

:15:43. > :15:48.they are in London... It seems a complete PR own goal. David Cameron

:15:49. > :15:52.in Prime Minister's Questions was hardly rallying to the defence of

:15:53. > :15:56.the Liverpool owners, and was intimating that he thought it wasn't

:15:57. > :16:00.a good idea. So they back down. In some ways it is not just victory for

:16:01. > :16:07.Liverpool fans for foot will fans. It takes it back to what football

:16:08. > :16:13.should be about. It is about the fans. This is going to be maybe the

:16:14. > :16:22.first scalp. You talk about Chelsea, there are other expensive tickets.

:16:23. > :16:27.If you go to the Emirates to watch Arsenal you will pay more than that.

:16:28. > :16:35.We have to leave it there. Thank you for taking us through the papers.

:16:36. > :16:40.Thank you for taking us through the stories. We have more sport on the

:16:41. > :16:41.way in Sportsday.
