:00:08. > :00:16.is all to come in Sportsday in 15 minutes after The Papers.

:00:17. > :00:19.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers

:00:20. > :00:27.With me are the financial commentator

:00:28. > :00:30.Louise Cooper and Michael Booker, who is deputy editor at the Express.

:00:31. > :00:33.Tomorrow's front pages: The i newspaper leads on our top story -

:00:34. > :00:36.those comments by the Bank of England Governor about an EU exit.

:00:37. > :00:38.Meanwhile, "Queen backs Brexit," is the Sun's headline.

:00:39. > :00:40.The paper reports on an alleged disagreement

:00:41. > :00:48.The FT says Europe's top investment banks are now making less than half

:00:49. > :00:50.as much revenue as their US counterparts.

:00:51. > :00:52.The paper also reports on the sponsorship crisis facing

:00:53. > :01:02.The resignation of Sunderland's chief executive following the

:01:03. > :01:04.Adam Johnson abuse case is the lead story for the Metro.

:01:05. > :01:07.The Telegraph leads with a call by the head of parliament's

:01:08. > :01:10."sleaze watchdog" for changes to the way MPs conduct is regulated.

:01:11. > :01:12.According to the Guardian, the leaders of the newly formed Momentum

:01:13. > :01:15.group, backing Jeremy Corbyn, say they're ready to defend him

:01:16. > :01:22.should he face a challenge for the top job after the elections in May.

:01:23. > :01:24.And The New Day has a special report looking

:01:25. > :01:31.into how one in three victims of domestic abuse are now men.

:01:32. > :01:41.Michael, we will start with the Guardian. Sharapova faces tough

:01:42. > :01:45.questions. Her visage appears on every newspaper apart from the sun,

:01:46. > :01:52.which has the queen, God bless her. The Guardian has Sharapova. Looking

:01:53. > :02:02.very stressed on the front. Need tennis match looking stressed. --

:02:03. > :02:06.mid-tennis. We are now all experts on meldonium, the drug she has been

:02:07. > :02:12.taken. She didn't realise it was banned. She says she has unspecified

:02:13. > :02:18.complaint but has not call us what it is yet. She might tell us further

:02:19. > :02:27.down the line. What is interesting in this is that they have spoken to

:02:28. > :02:35.the UK head of Science and Medicine in Anti-dumping. There is a growing

:02:36. > :02:40.signs of this kind of medicine intake without a medical condition.

:02:41. > :02:44.The nub of it is if she had a medical condition or not. Lots of

:02:45. > :02:49.them are taking it without medical problems but it aids their

:02:50. > :02:56.performance. He says it is this question of ethics that is the

:02:57. > :02:59.problem. If it is the case that she knew this before hand and there is

:03:00. > :03:05.no medical problem, then she is a cheat. And the part you have

:03:06. > :03:10.referred to... And that she had not made a mistake. She failed the drugs

:03:11. > :03:15.test and then after failing to test, she went back and said,

:03:16. > :03:22.retrospectively, I want to get something called a therapeutic use

:03:23. > :03:26.exemption, something granted to athletes who take banned substances

:03:27. > :03:30.for a medical reason. She failed the test and said, now I have failed it,

:03:31. > :03:36.I want to say I have some illness which is why I have to take it. That

:03:37. > :03:40.can happen and that is legal. If you are taking something for your

:03:41. > :03:44.health, and you don't put it on the form of and it is found this is in

:03:45. > :03:51.your system, you can go back and do that. Lots of questions. It always

:03:52. > :03:55.seems to be sports men and women who are caught, seeming to take

:03:56. > :03:59.medication that also accidentally enhances their performance. I have

:04:00. > :04:05.had a cough and my leg hurts! LAUGHS.

:04:06. > :04:12.They don't seem to get caught... It is for angina. It improves your hard

:04:13. > :04:19.capacity. Hey, why would a sportsman want to take that? I have no idea.

:04:20. > :04:25.Yesterday, she did try to seize the initiative after finding out that

:04:26. > :04:28.she had failed this drug test, being as open and honest with the world

:04:29. > :04:34.press as she possibly could, this has led to sponsors withdrawing,

:04:35. > :04:38.taking time-out to assess the truth and what is happening at the moment.

:04:39. > :04:43.They are looking ethical about it as well. You just wonder if they are

:04:44. > :04:47.hoping it will all be nicely sorted out and it has all been a huge

:04:48. > :04:56.mistake and then she will somehow in one or two years bounce back. Time

:04:57. > :05:00.is running out. She is 29. She is someone who has been sliding down

:05:01. > :05:07.the rankings. I don't think she has played often this season. Louise,

:05:08. > :05:16.the Daily Express, drug shame over 100 million. The -- this woman has

:05:17. > :05:22.made $200 million out of sponsorship. Sponsorship is where

:05:23. > :05:26.you make money. I was looking at Lance Armstrong, the American

:05:27. > :05:34.cyclist who did a lot of drugs cheating and was stripped of his

:05:35. > :05:38.seven Tour de France wins. The US Cattina postal Service was the big

:05:39. > :05:45.sponsor of his cycling team and they are still trying to reclaim tens of

:05:46. > :05:47.millions, even more, saying, we sponsored you in faith and honesty

:05:48. > :05:52.that you were not doping and you were doping, which is a different

:05:53. > :05:56.situation from start up over who has just been found to be taking this

:05:57. > :06:00.drug -- different situation from Sharapova -- US Postal Service. It

:06:01. > :06:05.is earnings from the past and future. What I wanted to ask Mr

:06:06. > :06:11.Booker about is the choice of photos. The Express has taken the

:06:12. > :06:16.photo of her from the press conference, which makes sense. The

:06:17. > :06:19.Guardian has got a photo with her beautiful pink nails, but she is

:06:20. > :06:26.looking stressed on court... You can't see her face. It is very sort

:06:27. > :06:32.of the Guardian. And then the Times has a looking flirtatious, which is

:06:33. > :06:36.terribly odd, and then we have one on the Mail which makes her looking

:06:37. > :06:41.like a sexy vixen. I wonder why they have chosen sites different photos.

:06:42. > :06:47.All editors have different ideas on which pictures to use -- chosen such

:06:48. > :06:52.different photos. The one on the front of the Mail, she does look

:06:53. > :07:07.slightly icy and a little knowing... What! If you can see the

:07:08. > :07:10.picture... All right. Your paper uses the press conference, it is

:07:11. > :07:15.contemporaneous and proper journalism, sort of... LAUGHS.

:07:16. > :07:25.You are flattering him! I am talking rubbish. It is going to turn. We

:07:26. > :07:30.stay with your paper, Britain needs EU exit plan now, cabinet minister

:07:31. > :07:37.demands PM act before it is too late. The Culture Secretary backing

:07:38. > :07:43.leave, speaking to journalists today, talking about how it is time

:07:44. > :07:51.David Cameron came up with a Brexit strategy because we might not be"

:07:52. > :07:58.bremaining" according to him. You didn't use remain, not bremain. You

:07:59. > :08:07.have been getting carried away with all of these bremains is.

:08:08. > :08:12.Brabsolutely! He has had a go at the PM for not coming out with any plan.

:08:13. > :08:16.He has said that the new Deal was marginally better than what we had

:08:17. > :08:21.previously from the EU. It is interesting, we don't know what the

:08:22. > :08:26.Brexit plan would be. No one has put it to us. People will be voting in

:08:27. > :08:31.June. It would be helpful if one side or the other... According to

:08:32. > :08:40.Mark Carney it will mean hell in the short term. The truth of it is no

:08:41. > :08:47.one knows. Can he say, 100%, Mark Carney, what will happen? No, he

:08:48. > :08:51.can't see the future. Mark Carney made it clear that they do have

:08:52. > :08:59.contingency plans. They need to have contingency plans. Liquidity for the

:09:00. > :09:07.bank. In case of... They don't know it will happen. If no one knows, why

:09:08. > :09:11.have you got the front page of your paper saying, we need a plan? We

:09:12. > :09:15.need to make deals with other countries about trade. That will

:09:16. > :09:22.take 20 years anyway. It does take a long time. Let's not go there. Some

:09:23. > :09:29.say it will take a long time, some say it won't. Trade deals in history

:09:30. > :09:32.have taken a long time. It is interesting that the daily express

:09:33. > :09:37.is the paper that has come out, they get us out of the EU -- Daily

:09:38. > :09:42.Express. We know what the readers want. The other papers have an

:09:43. > :09:47.opinion but they have not come out and said this is what you should

:09:48. > :09:57.think. They hint. They have been sceptical. They have not crossed the

:09:58. > :10:06.line. The Express, have they expressly done that? Since 2010. The

:10:07. > :10:14.front of the Sun. Louise, backing a Brexit. Bombshell claim over Europe

:10:15. > :10:27.vote. Queen backs Brexit. It is covered in... Sources said...

:10:28. > :10:34.Exactly. No flat denial. I will give it to you in a second. Louise, give

:10:35. > :10:39.us the story. It was lunch at Windsor Castle, during the

:10:40. > :10:44.coalition, and it was Nick Clegg and the Queen, and apparently the

:10:45. > :10:53.Queen, this is an anonymous source, I presume, there is a new term here,

:10:54. > :10:58.we have a Brexitor... It says a highly reliable source. Clearly it

:10:59. > :11:04.is a Brexitor. It could be a senior Brexitor source. It is an unnamed,

:11:05. > :11:09.anonymous source, and people were in no doubt about her views, she said

:11:10. > :11:13.that the EU was heading in the wrong direction. And that adds up to

:11:14. > :11:19.Brexit? That is the point, does it mean she thinks we should leave?

:11:20. > :11:26.Nick Clegg says he doesn't remember it. To be clear, he says, as I told

:11:27. > :11:29.the journalist, this is nonsense! I have no recollection of this

:11:30. > :11:37.happening and it is not the sort of thing I would forget. The Queen

:11:38. > :11:43.says, well, the Sun says they have not expressly denied the heated...

:11:44. > :11:49.(CROSSTALK). They said, he really cannot remember it at all. A

:11:50. > :11:53.Buckingham Palace spokesman said the Queen remains politically neutral,

:11:54. > :11:59.as she has been for 63 years. We would never comment on spurious,

:12:00. > :12:04.anonymous we sourced quotes. Is that that the Queen did not say anything

:12:05. > :12:07.negative about Europe? The Queen saying something negative about

:12:08. > :12:11.Europe is different to saying she backs a Brexit. That is a different

:12:12. > :12:19.thing and I agree with that. Move over the line a little bit.

:12:20. > :12:23.Slightly. It sounds more like she is very Eurosceptic rather than...

:12:24. > :12:33.(CROSSTALK). Incredibly Eurosceptic?! He is winding himself

:12:34. > :12:42.up into an Express frenzy! The EU is heading in the wrong direction!

:12:43. > :12:47.Eurosceptic Tory MP, the reason we sing God saying that the Queen

:12:48. > :12:53.heartily is because we believe she is there to protect us from European

:12:54. > :12:55.encroachment, which we sing it because it is an anti- EU and that!

:12:56. > :13:04.LAUGHS. Very good -- God Save The Queen.

:13:05. > :13:08.Stop it, it isn't funny any more. It made me laugh! Something serious,

:13:09. > :13:12.the front of the Mirror Thomas Sunderland boss - I knew the star

:13:13. > :13:16.kissed the child but didn't tell anyone, this is the chief executive

:13:17. > :13:21.of Sunderland football club who let this guy continue playing even

:13:22. > :13:25.though he was charged with these serious offences. Serious pressure

:13:26. > :13:29.on Sunderland to say what they knew and when and now Margaret has

:13:30. > :13:37.resigned. She has taken all of the blame. She said she knew he had

:13:38. > :13:50.kissed this girl and she knew about some of the tax as well. 834 texts

:13:51. > :13:53.-- texts. She was under the impression he was going to plead not

:13:54. > :14:00.guilty to everything. She said it went no further. She has taken the

:14:01. > :14:05.entire blame and off she goes. You can see that in one way she has

:14:06. > :14:07.taken it for the team and she, you know, is lancing the boil and

:14:08. > :14:08.getting it out there. Whether someone else knew, we will never

:14:09. > :14:26.know. We have 30 seconds for the final

:14:27. > :14:29.story. American tourists in Edinburgh, if you have got enough

:14:30. > :14:34.cash to a half thousand day you can pretend to be the lord and lady of

:14:35. > :14:39.the manner, or the servant. Bizarrely equal amount of people

:14:40. > :14:43.want to be a chef and the Butler the one to beat the Lord and Lady of the

:14:44. > :14:58.manor. So you pay for the privilege? Yes you pay for it. It is

:14:59. > :15:03.just like being on East Enders. I think you can supplement your very

:15:04. > :15:11.large income at the Daily Express with that idea. As ever it has been

:15:12. > :15:17.great having you guys. Many thanks for that. Stay with us on BBC News

:15:18. > :15:19.but now it is time to
