:00:00. > :00:15.controversy! That is all coming up after The Papers.
:00:16. > :00:18.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers
:00:19. > :00:21.With me tonight, our guests are the Education Editor for
:00:22. > :00:24.The Sunday Times, Sian Griffiths, and Kiran Stacey, who's Energy
:00:25. > :00:37.The Mirror's headline is "The Great Cancer Hope," after
:00:38. > :00:39.genetically modified cells cured 94% of terminal cancer patients
:00:40. > :00:42.NHS funding is the Independent's main story,
:00:43. > :00:44.as a whistleblower claims hospitals are under pressure to underplay
:00:45. > :00:48.The Telegraph quotes new figures, which suggest there's been
:00:49. > :00:50.the biggest rise in annual death rates in England and
:00:51. > :01:05.The wreckage of a hospital in Syria, which was hit with an air-strike, is
:01:06. > :01:09.The Guardian carries comments from a leaked report from the Department
:01:10. > :01:13.of Health, which claims a seven-day a week NHS may not cut death rates.
:01:14. > :01:15.Immune cell therapy could be used to help cure cancer, according
:01:16. > :01:19.The Daily Mail continues its investigation into staffing
:01:20. > :01:23.And back to the EU with the Express, the paper says any renegotiations
:01:24. > :01:25.agreed by the Prime Minister could be changed
:01:26. > :01:45.We are going to start with The Daily Mirror. The great cancer hope. A
:01:46. > :01:50.photograph of a cancer cell by the look of it. An incredible
:01:51. > :01:58.breakthrough. Genetically modified cells cure disease in 4% of
:01:59. > :02:05.patients. -- 94%. We get these kind of stories once every week. But this
:02:06. > :02:09.is on the front page of two very different papers, the Times and The
:02:10. > :02:17.Daily Mirror. It seems they are getting incredible result in this
:02:18. > :02:23.test run. 94% of patients left the trial disease-free after being told
:02:24. > :02:29.a hat months to live. -- they had. What they might be able to do with
:02:30. > :02:36.this immune cell therapy is not only the wreck it, but actually have it
:02:37. > :02:42.as a long-lasting cure. -- fewer. You have huge amounts of people
:02:43. > :02:46.relapsing, 20 -40% of those treated for prostate cancer will have a
:02:47. > :02:53.relapse. Scientists in this say this may be the end of those which would
:02:54. > :02:55.be a huge deal. Usually you find scientists in these stories saying,
:02:56. > :03:06.wait a second shouldn't he too gung ho. -- these.
:03:07. > :03:12.This person says, imagine having a vaccine and you are rejected against
:03:13. > :03:15.something for all of your life. You could have cells remember the cancer
:03:16. > :03:24.to be ready for it when it comes back. That is the huge claims. But,
:03:25. > :03:30.we do see headlines like this from time to time on the front of
:03:31. > :03:34.newspapers and they do sell. But there seems to be a voracity to this
:03:35. > :03:43.story that we should take seriously. Yeah. Both headlines are similar. A
:03:44. > :03:53.hope of a lasting cure. They are very different. I think... It is a
:03:54. > :04:00.simple idea. You take white cells from the patient's blood and modify
:04:01. > :04:05.them to fight cancer and inject them back into the bloodstream. These
:04:06. > :04:11.so-called living drugs, could only do they fight cancer the first time
:04:12. > :04:17.around, but any recurrence of the disease and they have that memory
:04:18. > :04:22.and they fight it again. -- not. I think it is... So many cancers, not
:04:23. > :04:26.just prostate cancer, but breast-cancer as well, they come
:04:27. > :04:31.back within ten years, a quarter of them. I think this is incredibly
:04:32. > :04:42.exciting. People with cancer may have some hope. Yes. Hospitals are
:04:43. > :04:50.under pressure to cook the books. So many stories on so many papers in
:04:51. > :04:57.the last months concerning the NHS and the pressure it is under, an
:04:58. > :05:03.ageing population, the buzz is being squeezed. -- budget. And now, to
:05:04. > :05:07.cook the books to improve their bottom line. That seems to be the
:05:08. > :05:12.issue at the moment. Across the papers it is a similar story. The
:05:13. > :05:19.Telegraph, not always a story that goes hard on cuts. It has a story
:05:20. > :05:24.about how the cuts have led to death rates going up. This is a story the
:05:25. > :05:28.Independent has that says NHS hospitals are under so much pressure
:05:29. > :05:35.and are now being told to play down their deficit. So there is,
:05:36. > :05:39.actually, I haven't realised this, but this financial deficit the
:05:40. > :05:46.amount is coming in less than the amount going out, that target is 1.8
:05:47. > :05:51.billion. One whistleblower, anonymous, we don't know Houthis is,
:05:52. > :05:57.has told the Public Accounts Committee thinks it could be 2.9
:05:58. > :06:00.billion. -- who this is. It is just another piece of evidence that shows
:06:01. > :06:06.how much strain the NHS is under. We have junior doctors going on. We
:06:07. > :06:13.have social care under pressure. All of this will become more pressured,
:06:14. > :06:18.because of the ageing population and the financial squeeze outgoing
:06:19. > :06:21.three. Expect more of these stories. -- we are going through.
:06:22. > :06:29.The Tories used to hit stories like this, about health. -- hate. I was
:06:30. > :06:35.going to say, what is the reasoning behind so many of these stories
:06:36. > :06:39.appearing? Is it from those papers on the right suggesting we should be
:06:40. > :06:44.getting an NHS that can find itself, moving more towards privatisation?
:06:45. > :06:49.The left saying, these are the problems of the NHS. Cherish the
:06:50. > :06:58.institution. We should back it. What is the reasoning? To be honest, I
:06:59. > :07:00.think many of them are coming out of people working in the NHS themselves
:07:01. > :07:05.actually speaking out, whistleblowing. We have the junior
:07:06. > :07:11.doctors on the frontline at the telling it the way it is. I think
:07:12. > :07:18.more and more NHS staff are actually saying they are overworked and
:07:19. > :07:29.underpaid and waiting times are horrendous. If you have ever been to
:07:30. > :07:34.A late at night it is horrible, you could wait five hours. The staff
:07:35. > :07:40.do an amazing job. Many of these stories are coming from within the
:07:41. > :07:48.NHS. Interesting. Let's you want to the Guardian. Another NHS story. --
:07:49. > :07:56.move on. Seven-day plan may not work. They say they already do
:07:57. > :08:01.this. That is where the debate is. The whole point for Jeremy Hunt in
:08:02. > :08:05.the Department of Health was to cut the death rate. They are suggesting
:08:06. > :08:09.it may not be happening. They suggest it will not happen because
:08:10. > :08:18.they don't have the numbers of new GPS coming into the industry in the
:08:19. > :08:24.first place. They say the pressure on the job is too much. They say
:08:25. > :08:29.contracts for junior doctors... May be that isn't something I want to
:08:30. > :08:33.get into in the first place. -- maybe. An internal report has
:08:34. > :08:40.admitted some of these problems. The government has a target, to recruit
:08:41. > :08:43.5000 GPs by 2020. They say that might be a challenge to the base
:08:44. > :08:51.they a great piece of Whitehall speak, the government cannot talk
:08:52. > :08:59.about the translation to lower mortality and reduced lengths of
:09:00. > :09:03.stay. -- the problem is, what they have to do after this, presuming
:09:04. > :09:08.this gets settled, they have to do a lot of bridge building. Bridge
:09:09. > :09:14.building with the medical profession. You will need people
:09:15. > :09:18.wanting to be involved. The NHS is getting bigger and more expensive.
:09:19. > :09:23.People will be needed. That is the reason Andrew moved on. He seems to
:09:24. > :09:31.have earned too many bridges with the profession and was not seen as
:09:32. > :09:35.the man to take whatever reforms forward. Is Jeremy Hunt
:09:36. > :09:41.through the kind of crisis that means it is unmanageable? --Is
:09:42. > :09:48.Jeremy Hunt going through... The problem is that the government, the
:09:49. > :09:51.Tory government, not a coalition government, it knows it is in power
:09:52. > :09:59.for the next five years and feels it can do whatever it wants. It can
:10:00. > :10:04.take on the BMA and the junior doctors and can push through what it
:10:05. > :10:12.wants, a seven-day NHS. For noble reasons, it says. It argues that a
:10:13. > :10:21.seven-day NHS might... Well, would cut deaths. There have been 15
:10:22. > :10:24.international studies saying that weekend care is when people die
:10:25. > :10:30.because they don't get the care they would get on Monday to Friday. But,
:10:31. > :10:39.yes, as you say, there is a new report now saying that that is me be
:10:40. > :10:43.not the case supplied -- may be. -- case. The NHS will take half of the
:10:44. > :10:50.public spending within a decade or so. That cannot be sustainable. I
:10:51. > :10:55.mean, that is what people are saying We have got to change the way we do
:10:56. > :11:03.this because it will end of the national budget. And stories today
:11:04. > :11:08.have been about mental health. And how that funding has gone down. And
:11:09. > :11:17.the people that need men to help support is going up. The Guardian.
:11:18. > :11:20.Risking the EU. The breakup is real. David Cameron is flying over Europe
:11:21. > :11:26.trying to convince leaders of other nations to back his renegotiation of
:11:27. > :11:32.Britain's role in the European Union. Donald Tusk, the president of
:11:33. > :11:36.the in council, says if Britain pulls out the whole thing could
:11:37. > :11:40.collapse. -- European Council. A few backbenchers on the Tory's site
:11:41. > :11:47.would like that. I don't know if that would help his idea. -- side.
:11:48. > :11:58.We are finally getting to the crux. Finally! He will go to Brussels to
:11:59. > :12:06.do the final dottings of the i's. The key bit to look at is how long
:12:07. > :12:10.before new migrants can claim benefits. The second thing to look
:12:11. > :12:17.out for years, will people who have come over as migrants from elsewhere
:12:18. > :12:21.in the EU be able to send them back to their own countries? --Is. As in
:12:22. > :12:26.us that is tied up people have a cabinet meeting on Friday. All of
:12:27. > :12:32.those cabinet ministers on the fence will go for it. Mr Smith is champing
:12:33. > :12:38.at the bit to get there for a break up. With messages like this with
:12:39. > :12:42.Donald Tusk, saying this could undermine the entire EU project, you
:12:43. > :12:47.have to wonder who that is aimed at. Persuading people convinced that
:12:48. > :12:55.voting out to vote the other way? Probably not. I think he is aiming
:12:56. > :13:00.it at other members of the EU governments to scupper this in the
:13:01. > :13:05.final days. He is saying do not push too hard, we could keep the EU
:13:06. > :13:12.together. He has a friend there, David Cameron, in Donald Tusk. It
:13:13. > :13:18.seems, potentially. Yes. There is a story that The Daily Express on the
:13:19. > :13:24.front page. David Cameron's EU deal is a con. At the end of the day he
:13:25. > :13:32.could have it rejected. Not only could they rejected, you know, say
:13:33. > :13:36.in the referendum, June the 23rd, to leave, I guess the future government
:13:37. > :13:41.could have another referendum and we could go back in. It could go on for
:13:42. > :13:50.years. We don't want that. Trust me. We don't want that. I am with you on
:13:51. > :13:55.that. The Telegraph. A bit of a curious story. One in five children
:13:56. > :13:59.has watched porn on line. If we think about the easy access children
:14:00. > :14:04.have to cabinet it isn't surprising. This is an interesting story. It is
:14:05. > :14:09.an issue I am coming across in schools now. It is extraordinary.
:14:10. > :14:13.One in five children using the Internet has viewed on line
:14:14. > :14:19.pornography. But not only are they doing that, they are doing this
:14:20. > :14:23.thing called sexting, where they send indecent photos of themselves
:14:24. > :14:29.to, you know, a member of the opposite sex. That has become like a
:14:30. > :14:34.rite of passage for teenagers. Has it? It is so normal for them. Is a
:14:35. > :14:42.boy like the girl he thinks, I will show her... I am quite fit...
:14:43. > :14:52.Detects her a photo. --If. I did a story in the Sunday times. --He
:14:53. > :15:00.texts her. The new working guidance is in motion.
:15:01. > :15:12.If you are under 18, the guidance to the police will be not to prosecute.
:15:13. > :15:15.They will refer these children to councillors and tell them why it is
:15:16. > :15:20.not a good idea but they won't prosecute them. They really don't
:15:21. > :15:27.understand it is a criminal offence. Not only that, the possibility, kids
:15:28. > :15:31.know about SnapChat and Instagram. They know it goes all over the
:15:32. > :15:33.world. That still doesn't enter the mind of a
:15:34. > :15:42.decide to take a snap of a private part and send it to someone else.
:15:43. > :15:49.SnapChat, of course, you know, it deletes. You say of course, I don't
:15:50. > :15:56.have a clue! The clue is in the name. You can save it down and send
:15:57. > :16:03.it on. One thing that happens is when a relationship ends, they have
:16:04. > :16:11.revenge porn... All of that is involved as well. It is a grimy
:16:12. > :16:18.subject. On that note, and enervating note, it has been great
:16:19. > :16:26.looking at the headlines. Stay with us here on BBC News, much more
:16:27. > :16:28.coming up. Now, it is Sportsday. ,
