:00:15. > :00:17.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:18. > :00:20.With me are Jo Phillips, the political commentator,

:00:21. > :00:22.and Nigel Nelson, the political editor of

:00:23. > :00:34.The Guardian leads with a stem cell therapy which apparently halts

:00:35. > :00:36.and reverses some of the symptoms of people worst affected

:00:37. > :00:43.That story is also in the Daily Telegraph.

:00:44. > :00:46.And Security Minister John Hayes has written in the paper arguing Britain

:00:47. > :00:51.is better placed to fight terrorism outside the European Union.

:00:52. > :01:02.The Daily Express says it has seen figures migrants.

:01:03. > :01:05.The Metro leads with security measures for the Euro 2016

:01:06. > :01:07.tournament, saying bars in France have been banned from showing

:01:08. > :01:14.matches on outdoor big screens over terror fears.

:01:15. > :01:18.The Mail's front page has a picture of Sir Philip Green and the crisis

:01:19. > :01:29.It says some Conservative backbench MPs are pressing for him to lose his

:01:30. > :01:31.title. The FT shows a picture

:01:32. > :01:33.of Bernie Sanders with President Obama at the White House,

:01:34. > :01:35.promising to work with Hillary Clinton to defeat

:01:36. > :01:52.Donald Trump in the US election. Let's begin with the Metro. Yes,

:01:53. > :02:03.this is the story you alluded to just now, that venues have been

:02:04. > :02:07.banned from showing the match as an outdoor big screens because of fears

:02:08. > :02:10.of terror attacks, the argument being the supporters will be safe in

:02:11. > :02:19.designated fan zones where police can protect them. But England fans

:02:20. > :02:27.said they would feel safer in small groups. But how can you... Are you

:02:28. > :02:33.safer on the S side of an airport, where there is huge security and

:02:34. > :02:38.people are waiting on longer, or on the other side? It's a very

:02:39. > :02:42.difficult thing for the security forces and intelligence services. In

:02:43. > :02:48.the wake of the attacks in France, they will be terribly worried about

:02:49. > :02:53.the possibility. It's a nightmare to do this. Weather it makes any

:02:54. > :02:59.difference, only time will tell, but it will have a huge impact on the

:03:00. > :03:05.sense and feeling of the football tournament itself. A huge challenge

:03:06. > :03:09.for the authorities, Nigel. You can't blame the French for being

:03:10. > :03:14.twitchy, considering everything that has happened there. I agree with Joe

:03:15. > :03:19.here. Whether it will make a difference, who knows, but the idea

:03:20. > :03:22.of being in small groups and a variety of different bars,

:03:23. > :03:27.presumably, statistically, you are more likely to be OK for a bomb goes

:03:28. > :03:32.off in a big group. But really, in something like this, the only thing

:03:33. > :03:38.you can do is go there, enjoy yourself, keep note of all the

:03:39. > :03:42.authorities tell you not worry too much about it because there's

:03:43. > :03:47.nothing you can do. The big screen outside, is traditional of these

:03:48. > :03:55.tournaments. It is, but the impact of that is it is insane to you is

:03:56. > :04:01.the influence that terrorism has, which has made people change the way

:04:02. > :04:05.they have behaved. What we were saying about trying to carry on as

:04:06. > :04:09.normal, we have not. We will talk about the EU. We will do it twice,

:04:10. > :04:17.once fired the Guardian, but we will start with the Telegraph. This

:04:18. > :04:21.quotes John Hayes, D Security minister, who is in favour of

:04:22. > :04:27.leaving. He has done an interview with the Telegraph. He seems to be

:04:28. > :04:32.saying, its total nonsense! The argument that everything I have

:04:33. > :04:35.heard from Whitehall security sources saying that it really

:04:36. > :04:42.doesn't make any difference, this should not be an argument. The way

:04:43. > :04:46.that intelligence works is you operate with like-minded

:04:47. > :04:50.intelligence services to our allies, personal relationships, it depends

:04:51. > :04:54.on where the crossovers are and the relationships you have built up.

:04:55. > :05:02.What he is saying is we are better off dealing with United States,

:05:03. > :05:08.Canada, Australia, New Zealand. His critique is that the EU he says is

:05:09. > :05:12.guilty of grand scheming and trying to appropriate power instead of

:05:13. > :05:16.doing the job in hand. What you are talking about that is what is

:05:17. > :05:22.happening at the political level. It's rather different from the guys

:05:23. > :05:25.who operate on the ground. The intelligence services operate

:05:26. > :05:35.outside the umbrella of the EU in the same way they operate here. John

:05:36. > :05:41.Hayes, and what he said? I hate to say I agree with Nigel but it sounds

:05:42. > :05:46.like an awful lot of twaddle to me. This is political posturing that

:05:47. > :05:50.looks desperate. He also says, David Cameron is marvellous, presumably

:05:51. > :05:54.trying to hedge his bets and keep some sort of political career,

:05:55. > :05:57.whatever the result of the referendum and says this referendum

:05:58. > :06:01.is not about his leadership or settling old scores or reducing big

:06:02. > :06:05.arguments to petty points. I don't know where he has been for the last

:06:06. > :06:09.few weeks because it is clearly about that. We have just talked

:06:10. > :06:16.about the security measures in France, which I can't think would be

:06:17. > :06:21.any different. Talking about political point scoring and be EU

:06:22. > :06:25.referendum debate, the Guardian has got three photographs of three of

:06:26. > :06:34.those taking part in the night's ITV debate. Three blondes. They are

:06:35. > :06:42.going down the Nicola Sturgeon line with the headline. Apparently, she

:06:43. > :06:47.led a concerted onslaught by the remaining campaign on Boris Johnson,

:06:48. > :06:52.and this hinges on the figure of the ?350 million a week that Boris

:06:53. > :07:00.Johnson has in the course of this debate stood by, that Britain sends

:07:01. > :07:05.that much money, even though it has been pretty much rubbished by quite

:07:06. > :07:11.a lot of people, including the independent statistics authority. It

:07:12. > :07:18.is not taking into account the returns the to us. He argues that we

:07:19. > :07:22.don't have control of that sum of money, that is where he comes from.

:07:23. > :07:29.But it is not a sum of money we actually sent over. It's more like

:07:30. > :07:34.100 or 150 million, which is considerably less. I think Boris...

:07:35. > :07:40.I did not see much of this, only the news clips, but Nicola Sturgeon is a

:07:41. > :07:45.formidable woman and formidable operator and Boris might be coming

:07:46. > :07:51.is lightly unstuck. Looking further down the eye Boris performing

:07:52. > :08:00.strongly on the issue of sovereignty. That that is right.

:08:01. > :08:05.Both campaigns have been utterly appalling. Everybody is dealing in

:08:06. > :08:10.absolutes and the voters don't and it would be so much better if David

:08:11. > :08:16.Cameron had said, on balance, we are better off staying in, but instead

:08:17. > :08:24.he says, an absolute disaster if we pull out. Same thing applies to the

:08:25. > :08:29.Brexit campaign. The campaign has been very bad. What they have

:08:30. > :08:34.narrowed it down to is that you have got the fear of immigration on one

:08:35. > :08:39.side if we stay in, you have got the fear of economic uncertainty of the

:08:40. > :08:45.pull-out, and those now at the campaign battle lines. I must say,

:08:46. > :08:50.it's extremely refreshing to see if you all female faces and certainly

:08:51. > :08:56.the interventions over the last 24 hours have actually brought things

:08:57. > :09:03.down a little bit to a reasonable conversation to be blabbing around

:09:04. > :09:08.the country. Five women, one man. We have the Financial Times. They are

:09:09. > :09:12.talking about the polls and polling process and how difficult this is

:09:13. > :09:18.proving to be, particularly in the light of what happened in Europe.

:09:19. > :09:21.This is a really interesting story because the pollsters were caught

:09:22. > :09:27.out or got it wrong, depending which way you choose to look at it, by

:09:28. > :09:31.getting it completely wrong on the election, the last general election.

:09:32. > :09:37.What's interesting about this is that because of the huge economic

:09:38. > :09:42.impact either way, whatever the decision is, lots of people like

:09:43. > :09:46.investment banks, hedge funds and investors, are trying to

:09:47. > :09:49.second-guess the result so they can make arrangements either to move

:09:50. > :09:53.money or reinvest or shift things around. The pollsters have got a lot

:09:54. > :09:58.riding on this because if they get it wrong, and those investors make

:09:59. > :10:01.the wrong decision, they will blame the pollsters. But what's really

:10:02. > :10:07.interesting in the course of this lengthy article is the difference

:10:08. > :10:17.between online polls and telephone poles. And on an online poll, you

:10:18. > :10:22.end up with usually more don't know, don't know what to say, so a much

:10:23. > :10:28.more neck and neck thing, whereas with a telephone pole, and to a

:10:29. > :10:32.certain extent it self selecting, an online poll, because you are putting

:10:33. > :10:36.your name forward, whereas with a telephone pole, someone can phone

:10:37. > :10:42.you up and they will try to push you to yes or no. The other problem with

:10:43. > :10:46.this is the sampling. In terms of who you choose to approach in the

:10:47. > :10:51.first place and how you make sure that is representative. If the

:10:52. > :10:58.pollsters are doing their job, they were weighted so it's

:10:59. > :11:01.representative. Which they try to do a year ago! One fascinating

:11:02. > :11:06.statistic here that the Financial Times mentions is that 56% of

:11:07. > :11:12.telephone polls gave Tories believed, which is what happened,

:11:13. > :11:17.only 10% of non-posted. The problem is that a telephone pole is very

:11:18. > :11:24.labour-intensive and will cost ?10,000. An online poll comes in at

:11:25. > :11:28.?1000. You can see why an awful lot of news organisations have been

:11:29. > :11:31.going for the online version until we discovered last year that they

:11:32. > :11:35.were not worth a lot. It is compounded by a problem here that

:11:36. > :11:41.with general elections, they have something to base it on but this

:11:42. > :11:47.time around, it is a long time ago since we had anything like it. This

:11:48. > :11:53.referendum, we had no idea. But at the moment, pollsters are saying, if

:11:54. > :11:55.you want to know our voting intention, use a telephone pole,

:11:56. > :12:00.expensive but at least you will grill it down a bit because you are

:12:01. > :12:05.talking to people and getting a proper reply. There is a brilliant

:12:06. > :12:09.comment from Professor John Curtis who says lots of things are hanging

:12:10. > :12:16.on this referendum, one of them is the future of the polling industry.

:12:17. > :12:22.Reputation lay... They can't get it wrong again. A quick word about

:12:23. > :12:30.Bernie Sanders who was edging towards... It is probably Hillary

:12:31. > :12:34.Clinton's will he end up endorsing Hillary Clinton? The answer is

:12:35. > :12:40.probably he will. It will probably depend on what job he gets when he

:12:41. > :12:45.does. But if he does, she has got more chance of beating Trump because

:12:46. > :12:48.he will bring with him the young people that he attracted and there

:12:49. > :12:55.are quite a lot of people who don't like Hillary Clinton. It's a

:12:56. > :13:03.peculiar image. That is further Hillary Clinton or for people to

:13:04. > :13:07.draw pictures of Donald Trump. Nigel, this cartoon on the front of

:13:08. > :13:15.the Telegraph is where we wish to end because it takes us back to

:13:16. > :13:22.Brexit and Euro 2016 neatly. They have managed to combine the two

:13:23. > :13:31.things together and he has got an England player saying, summing up

:13:32. > :13:42.every issue there, immigration, football and the whole referendum

:13:43. > :13:48.debate. He just gets it. He is so clever. Brilliant. Time is up. Thank

:13:49. > :13:52.you both very much indeed. That is it for the papers the night before

:13:53. > :14:01.we go, the Times coming while we have been talking and it leads with

:14:02. > :14:05.the stem cell story and shows a picture of the Chancellor and Ruth

:14:06. > :14:11.Davidson at a farm. They want the UK to stay in the EU. Don't forget, or

:14:12. > :14:18.the front pages are online, where you can read a detailed review on

:14:19. > :14:26.those papers. And you can see us there as well. So thanks again and

:14:27. > :14:31.goodbye.
