Let's begin and have a closer look. We will start with the Sunday Times.

I know you will talk us through one of the breakfast stories. -- Brexit.

You pointed out the 10,000th issue of the Sunday Times. Going since the

early 1820s and a series of names. At one point it was called the

Independent and the Observer, and at that time it had no connection with

the Times, where I write, and nothing much has changed. Everybody

is still sitting there and talking about politicians are working out

who was great and arguing a hat is not in the same way we are doing

this evening, but it is an extraordinary history -- perhaps not

in the same way. I worked for the Sunday Times for 20 odd years, and

there is a rivalry. Very superior, and it made money in those days. It

still makes money. We kept the Times going. I will get you out of that.

You will talk as do the spy chiefs that say quitting the EU is a

security risk. We have had two former heads of security say that

leaving Europe would be leaving a wonderful family. It would be like

the situation where a fire that leaves the family and the

consequences can be dire. It is just a new approach to the way we are

talking about the EU referendum. The two people concerned so they have

not been coached by number 10 for this, but it seems to be part of a

bigger hearts and minds type of campaign where they appealed to our

sense of comfort within the greater European family. And instead of

throwing around numbers about how much better off or worse off we will

be whether we stay or go. I think in a way be hearts and minds one, this

argument is meant to say we would be more insecure. The economic argument

is more difficult to make. How much we will lose what will happen with

trade. Against the people who want to leave, saying that this will

regain our sovereignty. They are trying to say, we're going to be

free again, an independent country, look at the other side. Being

independent, we will be less secure. They say there is so much

intelligent sharing going on, we risk undermining that. This is like

a fire that leaving the wife and children, and that intelligence

sharing will not be possible once we are outside the family -- father.

They will no longer want to share with the father who walked out. We

will see some big keynote speeches from the Prime Minister about what

leaving could mean, and Boris Johnson will travel the country on a

bus. Not a Boris Pike? -- bike. As did the word he has used is

unleashed. Brace yourselves is all we can say. Let's stay with Brexit.

The Sunday Telegraph, migration pressure on schools revealed. What

is this about? This is another emotional argument. There will

certainly be a lot of talk of immigration. But this is showing is

that as a result of EU immigration, there is a lot of school pressure

because a lot of people coming in have school aged children, and the

pressure is so great, it will require 27,000 new primary schools

to cope with the people coming in. And most of them don't speak

English, so there is a question of getting them the right schools. And

getting them into the language group which would be different to those

worn already living here. There is a point about if we don't leave the

EU, this pressure will grow. And the other part of it is that these are

government documents which seem to be quietly filed in the House of

Commons. The source of this was interesting. Just published without

fanfare. I wonder if they will be a row about the way there was no

announcement made about these figures. Also, I would have liked to

see in this piece some more backing for the figures, the numbers of

pupils, and the need for special language teachers in the schools.

I'm not sure how they calculate so many new schools. I would like is

that flushed out of it. And what areas. We need more details -- like

to see that flushed out a bit. And a play on the word exit, about Jeremy

Corbyn, second act. -- Jexit. We sort of envy him. Maybe he is making

the right decision. It is not necessarily popular, but he will

stage a Jexit. This is again a question about whether Jeremy Corbyn

has his heart in the EU campaign. There has been a lot of talk that to

win the campaign, to win to remain in the EU, the Labour Party needs to

really read the thing, and so far Jeremy Corbyn has given the

impression, having been in the past a critic of the European Union and

voted against many measures of that you in the House of Commons, that he

doesn't really care for it. He might make the noises that we should stay

but he doesn't really care for it and has not led the campaign. For

all we know, he is having a holiday to recharge his batteries and come

back, a bit like Boris. He will be the chosen spokesman in the party? I

will be interesting to watch over the next few weeks. There are quite

a few people who would like to take over his job permanently. You have

to be careful. I shouldn't make this a great, but the Observer is

focusing on a Sadiq Khan. An up-and-coming figure in the Labour

Party and newly elected Mayor of London. He has an opinion piece in

the Observer. Whatever they pulled out from what he is saying? The

elements of the article that are on the front of the Observer are quite

far down the piece, and what they are focusing on is the tactics used

by Zac Goldsmith in the London mayoral campaign. Stay -- Sadiq Khan

say those are from the Donald Trump iBook. That is quite an accusation.

We know the Donald Trump playbook pulls no punches. The politics of

fear with ethnic groups and nationalities. We have not seen

anything yet because the presidential campaign will get going

in earnest, but this is actually only an element within this very

interesting Sadiq Khan piece, where he seems to be as critical of the Ed

Miliband regime as of Jeremy Corbyn, and he is calling for a wider unity

within the Labour Party. For them all to come together behind him, a

proven winner, rather then being in love with heroic failure. It has

been an interesting set of results for Labour. On the one hand, they

didn't do disastrously badly in the local elections, besides Scotland,

they didn't do sufficiently well to put Jeremy Corbyn by contract.

Jeremy Corbyn said we hung on. ! Back on track. He sounded like a

relegated manager. Sadiq Khan seems to be saying I have more votes than

anybody else in London. He led the Ed Miliband campaign and proposed

Jeremy Corbyn for the leadership, and this is his manifesto for the

future. There will be change in the Labour Party. We have to bring

everything together. And probably do a Claudio Ranieri and lead Labour

Party back. When he was fighting the campaign, he did not say the word

Labour that much. That is rather like with Davison. We have these

larger than life politicians who don't necessarily represent their

party first. They are a big personality. I wonder if that is

where we seem to be looking. More about the person. We got that with

Boris Johnson. We'll have to see how Sadiq Khan measures up. Let's have a

look at the Independent. Another Labour politician, the Shadow

Chancellor John McDonnell, he will not set the world alight but he is

talking about proportional representation. That really will set

the world alight. Do we see this as a bid for fame? I'm not sure whether

this is the way to go. As to whether proportional representation would

take Labour to where it wants to go. That is not how it has happened in

Scotland. There has always been a solid block in the Labour Party

which never wanted proportional representation is they have always

seen it is not giving them political bar. We talking about who would want

to succeed Jeremy Corbyn. You wonder if this is the McDonnell edging up a

pitch for what will happen after Jeremy Corbyn if he does not come

back from holiday -- putting up. While we're talking about

succession, a tenuous segue to the Sunday Times, he is not high up the

line of succession, by Prince Harry gets no satisfaction at home on my

hours. -- their back. He had his royal duties so he could not take on

another job. He hates staying at home. He has gotten involved with

the Invictus Games. And his other charities. He also talks about

trying to find a lady who will marry him, and what an extraordinary

pressure that puts on any woman he dates. It is quite touching piece. I

think we love Prince Harry. He is modernising in the way he says sit

at home on my cars. You could not imagine his father saying that. --

at home on my Bummer. They are sensitive to public discussions that

there is not enough going on. The Invictus Games are opening in

Florida, and Michelle Obama will be there and so on. Clearly he is

dedicated to it. If you saw the opening in London a couple of years

ago, he really wanted to push it and believed this was something worth

doing. Yes, trying to find something that is close to their heart and

field they can wholeheartedly give. He has to find his Kate. Where will

she be? Take that as a call to put yourself forward, ladies. Thank you

very much. That is also now. Coming up next, The Film Review.
