20/04/2016 The Papers

The Manxman now holds the lead over Nizzolo in the event,

Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing

us tomorrow. With me are the deputy editor of the express. The Metro

leads with the comedienne Victoria Wood, who has died at 62. The

express said she had kept her battle with cancer choir. Goodbye to the

woman who made women laugh was the headline of the New Day. The

Guardian features President Obama's trip to the UK. He is expected to

make the case for the UK to stay in the EU. The FT FrontPage, EU

regulators have charged Google with abusing the dominant position of its

android operating system. The i focuses on the West macro's effort

to fight Isis in Libya. And the Times says millions of patients will

be seen by pharmacists and medical assistance instead of overworked

GPs. Let's begin, and Victoria Wood makes so many of the front pages

today. The Express, Victoria Wood dies suddenly at 62. She had a short

battle with cancer. There was audible shock in the newsroom when

we heard the news. On the front page of the New Day, the woman who made

us laugh. One of her main talent was that she could see the humour in the

seemingly mundane, everybody's ordinary lives, and make it

humorous. The vast majority of people saw the humour in it and that

is why the country loved her so much. What was so special about her?

I am not sure I like the headline in New Day, the woman who made women

laugh. It says here, not bleakly, not meekly, beat me on the bottom

with a Woman's Weekly. She was a performer, comedienne, writer,

composer, hugely talented, from very humble background. In her childhood,

she was on Desert Island Discs, and she described quite a difficult

childhood, she went to grammar school, was not privately educated,

she didn't come from privilege and she fought her way up. I think that

talent just shone through, she was an astonishing woman. The subjects

of a lot of things she did, like Pat and Margaret and Dinnerladies, it

was people doing ordinary things. Sometimes things didn't work out but

there was humour in those situations. That is why she was

incredibly popular. The good thing is, people have been going on you

Tube all day and listening to that song, she has the legacy of that

great amount of work that we can look back on. We have had the

shocking death of some big names this year, but some of those people

who were of an age where you would expect... 70s, 80s, but she was very

young, 62, so it was a big shock. I hadn't quick look at her biography

on Amazon and it has already sold out. Sad news makes the front pages

of several pages but the Telegraph has a different picture, to

celebrate the Queen's 90th birthday, which is tomorrow. Louise, a very

eye-catching picture of the Queen with two of her grandchildren and

five great-grandchildren. What I quite like about it is that although

it is the Royal family and they are completely different to any other

family, actually it is what any granny once. When I think of my mum,

she loves being surrounded her grandchildren, and when I think of

my Nan, it made her the happiest... I don't know whether it is passing

on your genes to the next generation, I don't know what it is,

but they are extraordinary. I didn't know you were a monarchist. I am

not, I am a Republican, but there will be all of those grannies out

there who are so proud of their grandchildren. It is like a fairly

ordinary grandmother, like say. You might say some of the clothes the

children are wearing a not typical. Prince George has his own particular

wardrobe, Helix like Prussian prince from the 1800. -- he looks like. All

of the Americans will be dressing their kids like that. The Telegraph

is promising reports and pictures on pages four to nine tomorrow. The

Express has a free TTL, I see. The Telegraph, one in three

terrorists. This is part of the Telegraph's campaign to highlight

weakness in border security. One in three jihadi terrorists convicted of

rotting attacks was able to slip into the UK after training abroad,

this was analysis of... They are highlighting

the fact that unlike in America Britain doesn't routinely screen

suspicious travellers. We have these hugely exploited migrant routes

where hundreds of thousands of migrants want to get away from Syria

and Libya, but at the same time security sources are saying these

brutes have been exploited by Isis, whatever we call them, so they are

highlighting them and they want the governor to beef up security. Louise

was saying before we come on it very much chimes with the Brexit argument

that if we get out of the EU on June 20 third -- the 23rd, we will be

able to beef up our security. Louise, you think this is playing

into the EU referendum debate? I think this is a subtle way of saying

to Telegraph readers that we can stop this if we leave the EU. It is

not like if you rock up to an Afghan training camp they put a stamp in

your passport. There are 60 million people in the country and it is hard

to see where they all go for their holidays. Apart from entering the

United States, who have a very strong border control... Sorry, I

just touched your knee there. These people don't want to be detected so

they make it difficult themselves. The border security agencies are

massively overstretched and we see stories every day about people being

arrested, so they are doing a lot of work but if we have stricter border

security we can maybe... We are kind of outsourcing our border security

to the EU and it has clearly failed in some circumstances. Moving on to

the i, the West macro to fight Isis in Syria. Really? There is a meeting

of the G five on Monday in Hanover, America, Germany and France will be

there. It is about how to tackle jihadis, and we have all of these

problems in these migrant routes which can be exploited. Further down

the line, if it is found that people have managed to exploit these

routes, come up through Libya and then there is a terror attack in

Europe, we will look at these leaders and say, why wasn't anything

done about Libya? This is part of the reason why they are trying to

get their heads together on Monday on what they can do, because Isis

seems to have control of a lot of the coastline in Libya and we need

to stamp on this before it gets worse. Louise, I just want to get

onto the Times. Crack down on offshore owners of UK property, this

is after the Panama Papers. There is an anti-corruption Summit in London

next month. This is Erik pickles' job, he became the anti-corruption

czar. Owners of offshore companies that hold an astonishing ?170

billion of UK property via these offshore companies, they are going

to have a crackdown. They want to find out who owns the companies,

essentially by holding it through an offshore company... If you buy it

through an offshore company, who knows who has bought at? We have

found out that some pretty dirty people have bought property in

London and the proper -- the problem is that the property industry have

kept quiet about it because they have made a lot of money by selling

to highly dodgy people in offshore companies. They have kept very

quiet, delighted that this is continuing, but not only should

London not be a centre for people to pile their dirty cash but also one

wonders how long it has taken the government to do this. There have

been plenty of warning signs and people living in London paying their

taxes and contributing to the economy can't afford to buy a home.

They should have cracked down on it a long time ago. In the details it

says there is discussion about whether this should apply to

existing offshore companies or new ones. They should have done this

years ago. Brussels is going to charge Google with abusing dominance

of android. -- Android. Something like 80% of smartphones have Android

operating systems. If you put a pre-installed Google search on the

phone, they have been saying on Google, we will give you better

terms. Essentially there is a claim that Google have used their

dominance in search, with Android, to put themselves in a better

commercial position. Michael, it is interesting, the FT picks up that

there are fears in America that EU is targeting US tech companies. We

have all these tech companies, we have had tax avoidance and it makes

people very upset over here, and you wonder whether they are doing it

simply to make it look like they are doing something about it. The fine

could be 10% of Google's core revenue, which is 10% of ?75

billion. It is a lot of money but they can afford that. I was looking

at some reported accounts, because that is the kind of thing I do...

Your hobby. It may have been Google or another big American tax giants,

40% of their revenue goes into Ireland. Ireland is not that big a

company. -- country. Lots of sauce, no dressing, they are going to take

us into the first naked restaurant. It is late, does that appeal? Not

particularly. After a big meal you wouldn't have to loosen your belt. I

wouldn't like to do the cleaning job afterwards. I am delighted it is the

front page and not page 17, because that is where you will find it in

the i tomorrow. I will leave everybody with that enduring image.

Before you go, these front pages have also come in, all leading with

the Queen's 90th birthday and Victoria Wood's death. The Mirror

describes Victoria Wood as a gentle genius of comedy and the Daily Mail

has the portrait of the Queen with her grandchildren and

great-grandchildren, calling her the Queen of style. All of the front

pages are online on the BBC News website where you can read a

detailed review of The Papers. And you can see us there is well with

each night's edition of The Papers being posted up there shortly after

we have finished. Thank you, Louise and Michael. From all of us, good
