That is all from Sportsday. Coming up at a moment... The papers. | :00:00. | :00:13. | |
Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
With me are Liam Halligan, columnist from The Telegraph, | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
and the journalist and broadcaster Rachel Shabi. | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
Let's take a look at the front pages... | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
The Telegraph is reporting that the government will scrap | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
its target to reduce net migration to below a hundred thousand a year. | :00:29. | :00:40. | |
The Express urges the new Home Secretary, Amber Rudd, | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
The Metro leads with the shooting in Spalding in Lincolnshire | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
The Financial Times focuses on the IMF reducing Britain's growth | :00:47. | :00:57. | |
forecasts after the vote to leave the European Union. | :00:58. | :00:59. | |
The I dedicates its front page to the fight between Owen Smith | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
and Jeremy Corbyn for the Labour leadership. | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
The Guardian's front page has an image from | :01:05. | :01:05. | |
Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson's press conference with US Secretary | :01:06. | :01:08. | |
The Times leads with a story about Owen Smith's past, when he | :01:09. | :01:20. | |
That gives you a flavour, let's dive in, and we find battle lines drawn | :01:21. | :01:31. | |
between Owen Smith and Jeremy Corbyn. Yes, battle lines strong | :01:32. | :01:39. | |
because Angela Eagle dropped out of the leadership bid earlier today. | :01:40. | :01:45. | |
One of them was always going to drop out, that was always going to be the | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
plan, they want to just the one candidate, what they are calling a | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
unity candidate to stand up against Jeremy Corbyn. The trouble for this | :01:54. | :02:01. | |
candidate is that it doesn't seem to really matter who it is by that many | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
percentage points in the sense that Corbyn is still the preferred | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
leadership candidate amongst the Labour Party membership. Interesting | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
that the fight for the soul of labour... Getting to grips with the | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
idea of the Battle of ideology, essentially, the purity of the | :02:22. | :02:24. | |
Labour vision versus the pragmatism of how one gets elected, perhaps? | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
The Parliamentary Labour Party, the MPs who don't back Jeremy Corbyn's | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
leadership, they have fallen out with him on Trident with the lot of | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
MPs backing the renewal of Trident and Corbyn himself being against | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
Angela Eagle, a very experienced MP from the north-west, she got 72 MEPs | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
and MPs supporting her and Owen Smith, relative new,, bin in the | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
house since 2010 from a safe seat and Pontypridd, going forward to | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
battle with Jeremy Corbyn, with and illegal as part of the deal, will | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
get some kind of senior role but I think a lot of outsiders from | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
outside the Labour Party looking on both think OK, clearly Jeremy Corbyn | :03:08. | :03:12. | |
will probably become leader again but even though he is popular | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
amongst Labour activists, he hasn't got any chance of winning a general | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
election. Do they want to win this ideological battle or do they want | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
power? Although it's kind of false paradigms as is the purity versus | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
pragmatism set up in the sense that it seems to be what the centre | :03:31. | :03:36. | |
slashed left of the party has failed to learn from the last few elections | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
and the EU referendum is that the centre has collapsed, the jig is up, | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
people are not buying that style of politics in a more, people are not | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
interested in these reasonable looking centre is to present | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
themselves in nice suits and give us spin. That clearly isn't working any | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
more and that is what is explaining Jeremy Corbyn's success, it's not | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
about him, it's the fact that he represents a kind of politics that | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
hasn't been represented in the mainstream for so long and people | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
are hungry for it. Of course it's going to be a pretty long summer of | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
this because September, is when it all happens at in the meantime, in | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
the Times, the lead story, Labour feud over Corbyn rival's pastors | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
lobbyist... We will see a lot of this on both sides, no doubt, a bit | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
of concern raising, shall we say about the former role that Owen | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
Smith had for the US drug company Pfizer. The Corbyn eased as one to | :04:37. | :04:45. | |
paint him as Blair like, he has come back saying I am radical, similar to | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
Jeremy Corbyn in many ways but the Corbyn eased as say you've been a | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
lobbyist for a big pharmaceutical firm and paid a great deal of money, | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
the firm was fined, you're not part of the Labour tradition and so on. I | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
think what I'd say, as an outsider, is that Owen Smith, while he may | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
present himself as also to Corbyn than he is to Blair, seems to be a | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
lot like the other Labour candidates that Corbyn beat so convincingly | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
nine or ten months ago. What has he ever really done outside politics? | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
He's been a journalist for a while, worked as a lobbyist, again in | :05:27. | :05:36. | |
politics... It is... I would very much agree with you, he seems to be | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
more of the same but on the other hand, I just want a fantastic HM | :05:41. | :05:46. | |
opposition to go up against because I think that's what they need and | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
filed Corbyn may appeal to the Labour activists, he's still got | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
appalling ratings amongst the general publics that are done with | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
Michael Foot when I was a kid. That is the problem. It's no surprise he | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
has low polling ratings in the middle of this chaos amongst the | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
party but I agree with you, they desperately need an opposition and | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
you kind of think, if we are going to end up with the same result in | :06:11. | :06:14. | |
two months' time, Corbyn will be leader, we have to go through this | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
train wreck? As regards the Brexit debate, the UK debating with Europe, | :06:22. | :06:24. | |
but we've also got to debate with ourselves, as we debate... In the | :06:25. | :06:32. | |
middle of an identity crisis. We are, aren't we? Take us on to the | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
Daily Telegraph, Rachel. We turn our attention to the Tories, this | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
headline about Tory migration target axed, the focus today on the new | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
Home Secretary Amber Rudd and what her view might be on the targets are | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
met migration. Amber Rudd, the new Home Secretary, signalled and Boris | :06:52. | :06:59. | |
Johnson later backed up, that the target of hitting below 100,000 | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
migrants per year coming into the UK was not reasonable and that it was | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
going to be dropped and that it was unrealistic and it would set up a | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
sort of false expectation that would only be disappointed and I suppose | :07:12. | :07:15. | |
this has to be seen in the context of Brexit. And managing people's | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
expectations around that cause so much of that Brexit debate was | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
premised on regaining control of borders and reducing migration | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
whereas the reality is... Neither of those things may come to pass. In | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
the sort of formulation of leaving the EU. Your paper... Before the | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
last election, David Cameron famously said I will reduce net | :07:43. | :07:51. | |
migration to double-digit thousands for example 100,000 below and then | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
it went to 330,020 15 and that is net migration and many, many more if | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
you went to people who didn't stay a year but got a national insurance | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
number and this has to be seen in the context of Brexit, to try and | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
see off Ukip before the election, Cameron making the promise and he | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
promised the referendum, of course. I am sure many people voted to leave | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
because they wanted to see less net immigration but there would be this | :08:22. | :08:24. | |
negotiation that we spoke about before, the basic leader of the | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
negotiation, free movement of people on one hand and control of borders | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
and trade on the other hand. And going into any negotiation you don't | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
want to see what your target is, obviously but I think it's furry | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
clear that we will get somewhere between 150 and 250,000 so more | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
sustainable that you can plan better with the UK Government in some kind | :08:49. | :08:51. | |
of control to give people more confidence. But that Cameron | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
pre-election promise to head off Ukip is probably too difficult to | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
deliver any time soon. They don't want to be held to a figure. Talking | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
about people held to things they said in the past... Very nice link. | :09:05. | :09:13. | |
Enjoying your new job, Mr Johnson? Boris had a bed of a rough fried | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
with journalists. He had a bit of a rough ride, didn't he, the new | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
Foreign Secretary. The bit I really liked, it was bad enough he was | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
basically trolled by US journalists holding into account for various | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
insulting remarks particularly in relation to Barack Obama and Hillary | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
Clinton but there was a stage at which John Kerry was being kind to | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
our Foreign Secretary over something at which point Boris Langton and | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
John Kerry said, it's called clumsy, Boris! And I thought that was such a | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
great part, this is how you do it! Not what you have been doing! Boris | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
was caught out for making rude remarks about Hillary Clinton and | :09:57. | :09:59. | |
Barack Obama and he said there isn't time to issue the litany of | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
apologies, the global apologies I will have to make to account for my | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
30 years after a listen. And he is probably right. He tried to turn it | :10:13. | :10:19. | |
into a joke but the US... The US press did not really get it. They | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
don't speak Latin and they don't understand sarcasm. We jumped to the | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
Daily Mail. Something a little closer to home. This story of | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
patients being dropped their GPs for being too healthy. GPs tend to get | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
something like ?136 a year for every registered patient and of course | :10:42. | :10:44. | |
those registered patients don't turn up and some of them unfortunately | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
may not be with us any more or may have moved so we hear now of moves | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
by the Department of Health to hire cab at the outsourcing in order to | :10:53. | :10:59. | |
go through lists and write to people twice and if they don't reply to | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
remove them from lists so if you haven't been to your GP for more | :11:04. | :11:07. | |
than five years, according to the story and you don't respond to two | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
letters or one of two letters to say you still want to be treated, you | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
can be taken off the list and find it much order to get an appointment, | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
it's a cost saving measure but some people will find it worrying, Norman | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
Lamb the leading Lib Dem, well-known for his interventions on the NHS has | :11:26. | :11:28. | |
called it outrageous and I'm sure many others well but on the other | :11:29. | :11:32. | |
hand, people and the government said we have got to save money and why | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
are we giving money to doctors at a time when we are trying to control | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
the payroll to hospital doctors, fire be giving money to GPs and | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
patients they are no longer looking after in any way? Because we are | :11:45. | :11:51. | |
tight on time, Rachel, take us back to the Daily Telegraph, we've had | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
such a hard day, too hot for some but they have this barmy or barmy? | :11:55. | :12:11. | |
All of it. Is that Aberystwyth? It's really beautifully composed picture. | :12:12. | :12:21. | |
But yes, so unexpected. This image. Now it's too hard. Social media is | :12:22. | :12:30. | |
full of how to... Put a bottle of frozen water in front of your fan | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
for indoor, do-it-yourself air-conditioning. We have just had | :12:35. | :12:44. | |
one of our reporters. They were rubbing suncream on a pig. Thank you | :12:45. | :12:51. | |
both for a much. That is it for the papers. All of the front pages | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
online on the BBC News website. You can read a detailed review. Olver, | :12:57. | :13:04. | |
seven days a week. You can see us there as well. Posted on the page. | :13:05. | :13:10. | |
My thanks to Liam and Rachel. Good evening. What a day it was. | :13:11. | :13:37. | |
Most of us enjoyed a lot of sunshine. Temperatures rocketing up | :13:38. | :13:38. |
