:00:00. > :00:00.team pursuit. And, the news of Victoria Pendleton, former cyclist,

:00:00. > :00:17.who has won her first race as an amateur jockey.

:00:18. > :00:20.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers

:00:21. > :00:23.With me are Emily Ashton, Buzzfeed's chief political

:00:24. > :00:27.correspondent, and Dan Bilefsky from the New York Times.

:00:28. > :00:29.The FT leads on claims made by the French economy minster that

:00:30. > :00:32.the migrant camp at Calais would re-locate to UK soil

:00:33. > :00:40.Sticking with the EU referendum, the i focuses on the row over statistics

:00:41. > :00:46.The remain camp are accused of using misleading data to support

:00:47. > :00:52.Among the stories picked up by the Telegraph, the paper points out

:00:53. > :00:55.that petrol prices have increased for the first time since the summer,

:00:56. > :01:02.The former England footballer Adam Johnson is pictured on the front of

:01:03. > :01:05.the Metro following his conviction for sexual activity with a child.

:01:06. > :01:07.The Guardian reports that the chief executive of Rolls Royce Motor Cars

:01:08. > :01:11.has written a letter to its staff in Britain, warning that their jobs

:01:12. > :01:16.could be threatened if the UK votes to leave the European Union.

:01:17. > :01:22.And the Mail leads on the dangers of online dating.

:01:23. > :01:24.It reports on a man who used dating websites to

:01:25. > :01:45.We will start with the Mirror. Go and say goodbye to your daughter,

:01:46. > :01:49.prison will mean he will not see her for some time. This is a man who was

:01:50. > :01:53.idolised around the country, indeed in many parts of the world, as a

:01:54. > :02:01.Sunderland and Manchester City footballer. He has been brought low

:02:02. > :02:04.some would say by ego. This shows a pathological sense of entitlement by

:02:05. > :02:10.someone who had it all, and had his whole career ahead of him. The fact

:02:11. > :02:18.that the girl had just turned 15, it is deeply depressing for her and her

:02:19. > :02:26.family, it is just beyond words. My vampire boot job headline juxtaposed

:02:27. > :02:33.with this story seems like an odd juxtaposition. This is a man as you

:02:34. > :02:36.say who had everything. He was hoping to see out the rest of his

:02:37. > :02:42.career playing in the US in the Major League Soccer over there. His

:02:43. > :02:46.career is over now, finished. This is a man earning ?60,000 a week, and

:02:47. > :02:51.he has just been told today that he should prepare for jail time. He

:02:52. > :02:58.could be facing up to ten years in prison. He has a baby daughter. What

:02:59. > :03:05.possessed him to do this? This girl's life ruined. Just a very sad

:03:06. > :03:11.story all around, a man who thought he was invincible, really, and could

:03:12. > :03:15.get away with anything. The Times also has this on the front page,

:03:16. > :03:20.talking about it from the perspective of Sunderland football

:03:21. > :03:22.club, which allowed him to play on, earning about ?3 million over

:03:23. > :03:28.several months, despite having these charges against him. Now the club

:03:29. > :03:33.faces questions. That is the front page on The Times. Club allowed

:03:34. > :03:38.paedophile football player to keep on playing. The allegation is that

:03:39. > :03:42.Adam Johnson admitted some kind of sexual activity with this child, we

:03:43. > :03:48.don't know what exactly, to the child. He had been suspended for a

:03:49. > :03:53.time but the club reinstated him, and that seems to be were a lot of

:03:54. > :04:02.the focus is now being centred, as far as the club's involvement is. It

:04:03. > :04:04.beggars belief that there is the premise of innocence until proven

:04:05. > :04:08.guilty, and someone has to respect that, but the moment that someone

:04:09. > :04:17.comes under this kind of scrutiny, it beggars belief that they would be

:04:18. > :04:20.able to play at all. The club have put out a lengthy statement tonight

:04:21. > :04:26.following these allegations, after Adam Johnson's conviction, and they

:04:27. > :04:32.are basically, over a couple of pages, making it clear that he was

:04:33. > :04:38.allowed to play on for the club before his trial, because executives

:04:39. > :04:41.were not aware of his guilty plea. They didn't know that until the

:04:42. > :04:47.trial began. They are saying that they did not, unlike what the Times

:04:48. > :04:51.is alleging, they did not allow a paedophile to keep playing for the

:04:52. > :04:56.club. Reports this evening are saying that fans in Sunderland are

:04:57. > :05:02.very angry about what is being suggested that has happened.

:05:03. > :05:06.Footballers are put on pedestals in this country when maybe they

:05:07. > :05:16.shouldn't be, and I think this statement... It needs to be next to

:05:17. > :05:20.the story on the Times. We don't know when sentencing will be, it

:05:21. > :05:25.could be at the end of the week, but it could be anything from 5-10

:05:26. > :05:34.years. Let's move on to the Independent.

:05:35. > :05:41.Super Tuesday results mean a Donald Trump presidency is suddenly a

:05:42. > :05:46.serious prospect. The real estate billionaire faces toughest enemy

:05:47. > :05:51.yet, his party's furious establishment. The polls make

:05:52. > :05:56.Hillary Clinton the favourite, but her polarisation of the electorate

:05:57. > :06:15.means that a tight race is likely. Up until now, the establishment has

:06:16. > :06:23.been in denial about the hair apparent. Hillary Clinton is

:06:24. > :06:27.considered to be scripted, and she is going up against Donald Trump,

:06:28. > :06:40.who is this shooting from the hip circus performer. Clown perhaps?

:06:41. > :06:45.Perhaps. There will be a run-off. She will call him a dangerous

:06:46. > :06:51.renegade who is not qualified to be commander-in-chief. He will bring up

:06:52. > :07:00.the e-mails and the Benghazi issues, and it will be fierce. Hillary

:07:01. > :07:03.Clinton will probably have the overwhelming support of her party if

:07:04. > :07:11.she wins the nomination. What Donald Trump will not have is that. He is

:07:12. > :07:15.hated as much by Republicans as he is by Democrats. It is incredible.

:07:16. > :07:28.Didn't he wants lean towards the Democrats? Here's a left it on

:07:29. > :07:33.healthcare and various things. Here's a political chameleon, and he

:07:34. > :07:39.is appealing to these angry, working-class white men across

:07:40. > :07:51.America, but he comes from a 1%. Reading about Republican strategists

:07:52. > :07:54.desperately trying to predict this, trying to get rid of Donald Trump,

:07:55. > :07:59.and the Democrats are trying to do the same thing. He is a Teflon

:08:00. > :08:06.candidate who is not going anywhere. He has been getting less

:08:07. > :08:09.than 35% of the vote. There is the possibility that he might not get

:08:10. > :08:14.all the delegates he needs by the time they reach the convention. If

:08:15. > :08:20.that is the case, do you think the Republican hierarchy might try to

:08:21. > :08:25.hijack the nomination and say, you haven't got the delegations, we are

:08:26. > :08:37.putting forward Marco Rubio, for whoever they see fit. Marco Rubio

:08:38. > :08:51.one 1 state, Ted Cruz appears to appeal to the evangelical

:08:52. > :08:56.electorate. Mitt Romney? Who? A lot of people are saying that they are

:08:57. > :09:05.not... His roommate from college, Ted Cruz's, said he is not voting

:09:06. > :09:08.for just because doesn't like him. A taxi driver told him that he liked

:09:09. > :09:15.Jeremy Corbyn and he liked Donald Trump, and it is because they are

:09:16. > :09:19.different to the ordinary politicians. There is no paper trail

:09:20. > :09:25.of working in government. No experience. He is a businessman and

:09:26. > :09:29.reality TV star. Some are arguing that he made all his money simply

:09:30. > :09:32.because house prices have gone up, property prices have gone up. That

:09:33. > :09:38.hasn't actually been any involvement. But you are right, he

:09:39. > :09:41.has tapped into a section of the American population, and Jeremy

:09:42. > :09:48.Corbyn has done the same, who have seen their wages flat line since the

:09:49. > :09:53.1970s. He has seen these people who feel that they have been cut out of

:09:54. > :09:59.a burgeoning middle class. They have been put to one side, and Donald

:10:00. > :10:02.Trump has tapped into that. And they feel that ordinary politicians don't

:10:03. > :10:06.get it, they don't understand the real world. People like antipolitics

:10:07. > :10:10.politicians. This is not only happening in the US, it has been

:10:11. > :10:16.happening in France, with Jeremy Corbyn in this country. Also in

:10:17. > :10:22.Spain. This is an interesting era, the ear of the Islamic State. People

:10:23. > :10:27.are angry and rebellious, and they think Donald Trump has read the move

:10:28. > :10:32.of the American electorate and is playing it smartly. The question

:10:33. > :10:35.remains, when he goes before the entire electorate, could he win?

:10:36. > :10:39.Although polls can change, the latest polls show that Hillary will

:10:40. > :10:43.beat him, and that Bernie Sanders could beat him as well. That Bernie

:10:44. > :10:47.Sanders would beat him as well? If it was head-to-head between those

:10:48. > :10:55.two, based on the polls, and I must say it is early, but Bernie Sanders

:10:56. > :11:00.could beat him. Bernie Sanders is more of a socialist and Barack Obama

:11:01. > :11:08.ever was, and yet he could beat Donald Trump? Exactly. Donald Trump

:11:09. > :11:13.is the Frankenstein monster of the Republican Party. For years the

:11:14. > :11:17.party have been creating a message that the Democrats are bad, that

:11:18. > :11:25.Barack Obama is not really American, and they created this hatred, and it

:11:26. > :11:29.has ended with Donald Trump. We will end it on that. Let's move on to the

:11:30. > :11:37.Financial Times. French threat to end Kelley Deal and move the border

:11:38. > :11:42.if the UK quits the EU. This is about a warning that the border

:11:43. > :11:46.controls that you see in front at the moment will come to Britain if

:11:47. > :11:50.we leave the EU. There is a bilateral agreement with France, and

:11:51. > :11:57.they think that if we leave the EU that would be torn up. At the time

:11:58. > :11:59.everybody says that it was wrong, but now we have the French economy

:12:00. > :12:04.minister backing up David Cameron and saying, if Britain leads, you

:12:05. > :12:09.can deal with these migrant camps because the border controls will be

:12:10. > :12:12.on your LAN. This is a huge boost to David Cameron and to be in

:12:13. > :12:21.campaign. You think you really means it? We know the vast majority, in

:12:22. > :12:27.fact all of the 27 states, want Britain to stay in. This is a bit of

:12:28. > :12:31.leverage, isn't it? Science it could well be a bit of rhetoric, but that

:12:32. > :12:39.is the kind of thing that will resonate with people. The image of

:12:40. > :12:49.those camps being in England will resonate with people. The Tory party

:12:50. > :12:53.is arguing with itself, and many have somebody from outside, from

:12:54. > :13:01.France, saying that there are serious economic, strategic and

:13:02. > :13:06.security costs if Britain leads the EU. I think that might be something

:13:07. > :13:09.of a wake-up call. The Telegraph says wages will rise if we quit the

:13:10. > :13:17.EU. This is coming from the leader of the in campaign. This shows how

:13:18. > :13:22.archaeologically loaded the British media is, to the extent that

:13:23. > :13:25.depending on which newspaper you read you get a completely different

:13:26. > :13:34.narrative. That wouldn't be the case in America, what it? Of course

:13:35. > :13:45.not... But it is a lot more archaeologically loaded here. --

:13:46. > :13:48.ideological it. This is saying that if migrants don't come to this

:13:49. > :13:52.country, wages will go up. That will be that the business but arguably

:13:53. > :13:59.good for salary. It is a muddled message, but it shows how everything

:14:00. > :14:03.is being spun through whichever prism or camp you are in. It is very

:14:04. > :14:16.hard to balance that. What is it say about Lord Rose? He doesn't have a

:14:17. > :14:23.great track record on this. It was one long sentence at the hearing

:14:24. > :14:33.that the Telegraph have blown up. The Yes camp needs a colourful

:14:34. > :14:38.character to rest this on. You have Cameron, but he can't carry the

:14:39. > :14:43.whole debate by himself. A white-haired former captain of

:14:44. > :14:47.industry, very experienced and distinguished... Not so

:14:48. > :14:52.distinguished so far as far as this is concerned. Finally, ?100 million

:14:53. > :15:00.bill for licence fee dodgers, after the BBC closes loophole. At the

:15:01. > :15:03.moment, everyone pays their ?145 a year, but if you are only watching

:15:04. > :15:09.it on your computer or iPad or phone, then you don't have to pay

:15:10. > :15:20.it. So many people do now watch iPlayer, for example, I just watched

:15:21. > :15:23.Happy Valley on the iPlayer. Now those people will have to pay a

:15:24. > :15:33.licence fee as well. It is great for the BBC, it is something that plugs

:15:34. > :15:37.a funding gap. ?100 million is still a seventh the cost of having to fund

:15:38. > :15:42.license fees for Rover 75 is. That is something the government has

:15:43. > :15:48.imposed on the BBC. Swings and roundabouts. At a time of austerity

:15:49. > :15:52.and with the changing digital model as we are all trying to figure out

:15:53. > :15:57.how to stay afloat, we need all the money we can get. If people want

:15:58. > :16:02.other great quality broadcaster like the BBC, they have to pay for it. I

:16:03. > :16:06.am not saying anything else. It has been great having yuan, looking at

:16:07. > :16:12.some of the stories behind the headlines. Thank you. Much more

:16:13. > :16:14.coming up. Now, Sportsday. -- having you on.
