:00:13. > :00:16.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be
:00:17. > :00:27.With me are the political commentator, James Millar,
:00:28. > :00:32.or, what is it, politics wonk, and the journalist Eva Simpson.
:00:33. > :00:40.Let's have a look at tomorrow's front pages.
:00:41. > :00:42.The Metro reports that Opposition Mps have vowed to fight
:00:43. > :00:45.Theresa May's plans for new grammar schools.
:00:46. > :00:48.The Daily Telegraph says union leaders at Southern Rail have been
:00:49. > :00:50.accused of deliberately damaging Britain's economy by ordering
:00:51. > :00:52.the longest rail strike for almost 50 years.
:00:53. > :00:56.The Daily Express leads on the news that talks with big business over
:00:57. > :01:03.quitting the EU have have begun six weeks after the Brexit vote.
:01:04. > :01:05.The Guardian focuses on the International Paralympic
:01:06. > :01:07.Committee's decision to ban Russia from competing
:01:08. > :01:14.The Times says Russian and Syrian aircraft are bombing opposition
:01:15. > :01:16.areas of Aleppo in revenge after a rebel alliance broke
:01:17. > :01:22.The Financial Times leads on a survey which suggests
:01:23. > :01:25.that the pay of FTSE 100 chief executives rose by a tenth last year
:01:26. > :01:29.And the Daily Mail reports on the tax-payer funded expenses
:01:30. > :01:44.We will start with the Guardian and the Paralympic story, how Russia was
:01:45. > :01:51.banned outright from competing in the paralympics next month. In stark
:01:52. > :01:55.contrast the paper says with the International Olympic Committee's
:01:56. > :01:57.failure to suspend the team. This is what a lot of people thought should
:01:58. > :02:04.have happened with the Olympic Games. Yes, people will think the
:02:05. > :02:07.Paralympic committee... They will have more credit than the Olympic
:02:08. > :02:11.Committee because they followed through with this. There was a
:02:12. > :02:17.report which suggested the Russian government was backing widespread
:02:18. > :02:21.doping. They have still managed to send 217 athletes to the Olympics.
:02:22. > :02:25.At the moment they are not standing any to the paralympics. That is the
:02:26. > :02:30.position at the moment. It is a few weeks until it starts. They will be
:02:31. > :02:34.going through a series of appeals and counter appeals -- Paralympics.
:02:35. > :02:42.Yes, the court of arbitration could be quite busy. We have spoken with a
:02:43. > :02:46.lot of Paralympian is who applaud this decision. It would be galling
:02:47. > :02:49.to play against those competing from a country where there has been
:02:50. > :02:56.state-sponsored doping. The situation is you have half... You
:02:57. > :02:59.have able bodied athletes who are about to compete and who will be
:03:00. > :03:06.competing and then you have the Paralympian to have a different... A
:03:07. > :03:10.governing body who have been banned outright. Although you could say the
:03:11. > :03:15.Paralympian body had been strong, they have banned the team outright,
:03:16. > :03:21.you could question how fair it is that it doesn't cover all of them.
:03:22. > :03:25.And, conversely, though, some Paralympian is will be completely
:03:26. > :03:33.clean who lose out. It is such a mess. As a spectator watching, it is
:03:34. > :03:37.hard to watch any Russian athletes... It is hard to know
:03:38. > :03:41.whether they are competing from a clean slate given what this report
:03:42. > :03:46.revealed, or whether they are competing fair and square. It does
:03:47. > :03:52.send a powerful message for next time, doesn't it, too? Yes, you've
:03:53. > :04:00.got to hope so. The report into what went on at the Russian Winter
:04:01. > :04:04.Olympics was amazing. Into what was alleged to have happened. You can't
:04:05. > :04:08.choose what country you come from. If you choose to be Russian and
:04:09. > :04:13.clean it seems unfortunate that your government is up to all sorts of
:04:14. > :04:18.hijinks, apparently. But at the same time, if you are from anywhere else,
:04:19. > :04:23.you would be hacked off. The longest rail strike in 50 years to hit
:04:24. > :04:29.economy with ministers attacking union leaders for causing pain to
:04:30. > :04:33.passengers and business leaders. This strike is taking place this
:04:34. > :04:38.week for five days. If you are unfortunate to still be at work and
:04:39. > :04:41.not be on holiday, and have to commute, especially into London,
:04:42. > :04:56.then you will be hit by this rail strike. Southern... On Southern...
:04:57. > :05:00.Yeah. So what's happening in Dover? Conductors are claiming that their
:05:01. > :05:06.work has been devalued. Changes to the way they operate on the trains.
:05:07. > :05:11.There is a suggestion that their work is being devalued, their jobs
:05:12. > :05:16.are being put at risk. The issue is the strike has been given the
:05:17. > :05:25.go-ahead but it only has the support of 393 staff members. Yeah. That was
:05:26. > :05:30.a helpful answer. There have been issues with staff not turning up to
:05:31. > :05:34.work and claiming to be sick. The company and the union have
:05:35. > :05:38.essentially... They are at loggerheads and it doesn't seem to
:05:39. > :05:44.be any way out of it. There had been so many complaints about them, daily
:05:45. > :05:49.problems. You just have to go on Twitter and there is a stream of
:05:50. > :05:54.angry commuters. According to the Telegraph, it will affect up to
:05:55. > :05:58.300,000 commuters, and this is as the government was supposed to have
:05:59. > :06:03.brought in tough laws on the issue of when unions can call strikes and
:06:04. > :06:08.they had to have a certain amount of members who voted for the strike. If
:06:09. > :06:11.they are the only people affected either strike, you can't ballot
:06:12. > :06:18.people who are not going to take part. It makes a mockery of the law.
:06:19. > :06:23.If 300,000 are affected... Southern have sacked all the rest of the
:06:24. > :06:26.staff. Maybe if they employed more people they wouldn't have such
:06:27. > :06:33.problems. It is strange. Telegraph says it will hit the economy. Well,
:06:34. > :06:36.it is all very well, Amber Rudd, Home Secretary, complaining it is
:06:37. > :06:43.reckless and will be badly damaging and will cause needless pain to the
:06:44. > :06:47.economy, but didn't her economy just take us out of the EU, after telling
:06:48. > :06:50.us it would be dreadful for the economy, and they did that?
:06:51. > :06:55.LAUGHTER. So, you know... Here we go again,
:06:56. > :07:02.Brexit. A lot of people say we will be fine. Exactly, it is just a
:07:03. > :07:07.bit... LAUGHTER. MPs... Sorry, Janet, the Metro,
:07:08. > :07:12.please. Janet is directing to know. She keeps singing in my ear. It is
:07:13. > :07:20.annoying. MPs fight Theresa May's bid to expand grammars. The peers
:07:21. > :07:26.and Lords won't like this. There will be some opposition. This was an
:07:27. > :07:30.announcement yesterday in the Sunday Telegraph that the new Prime
:07:31. > :07:35.Minister is minded to reintroduce grammar schools but she is going to
:07:36. > :07:39.be facing a lot of opposition. If she thought that people would be
:07:40. > :07:44.sort of dancing in the streets about this, then she is sadly mistaken.
:07:45. > :07:47.Their big argument is that it is great for social mobility. Children
:07:48. > :07:52.from poorer backgrounds have access to a higher level of education are
:07:53. > :07:57.they go on to achieve so much more. The sad fact is the current grammar
:07:58. > :08:00.system, there is only about 3% of children who receive free school
:08:01. > :08:06.meals who go to grammar schools. Which is a marker of deprivation.
:08:07. > :08:09.So, is in the current system it doesn't support poor children, how
:08:10. > :08:15.can we guarantee that new grammar schools will do that? I can't even
:08:16. > :08:20.believe that this is on the agenda, quite frankly. Neil Carmichael says
:08:21. > :08:23.he doesn't think it improves social motor will teeth. They are very
:08:24. > :08:31.popular with parents. With some parents, yeah. Politically, this is
:08:32. > :08:35.going to be interesting. It is possibly a clue to something. If
:08:36. > :08:41.Neil Carmichael as a Tory is against it, it only takes a handful to be
:08:42. > :08:47.against it and it won't get to the Commons. And then the SNP come into
:08:48. > :08:51.play in the Commons. And in the Lords, the government doesn't have a
:08:52. > :08:56.majority. The only way they can get it through would be if there was a
:08:57. > :08:59.manifesto commitment. Does this mean Theresa May is pondering an early
:09:00. > :09:07.election, and she could get it through the Lords that way, it might
:09:08. > :09:15.be a bit of... You have heard it here first. It is a big thing to go
:09:16. > :09:20.through... It is very popular with people who vote... The Daily Mail, a
:09:21. > :09:26.law unto themselves, how are you, the taxpayer, pays thousands for
:09:27. > :09:32.police Chiefs' private health while they take up to 64 days' holiday per
:09:33. > :09:35.year. They are cross about this. Why are senior police officers are
:09:36. > :09:40.allowed to claim this money? There must be a legitimate reason. Thanks
:09:41. > :09:46.to national guidelines for senior police which haven't been updated
:09:47. > :09:50.since 2003. Yeah, basically, if they get moved around, or if they move
:09:51. > :09:55.around, it doesn't seem unreasonable they are entitled to relocation
:09:56. > :09:59.expense. The problem is what exactly they are claiming on these
:10:00. > :10:07.relocation expenses. Some of them don't really want to tell the people
:10:08. > :10:13.who actually pay their relocation expenses what they are paying. The
:10:14. > :10:18.thing that will annoy a lot of people reading this is that we
:10:19. > :10:22.understand, as you say, you are entitled to expenses, but if you are
:10:23. > :10:26.already earning ?200,000 a year plus, I think some people might
:10:27. > :10:30.think it is a bit excessive to be claiming for things that they could
:10:31. > :10:33.really pay for out of their own pocket. There is no suggestion that
:10:34. > :10:39.they are doing anything wrong or illegal but it is... They are the
:10:40. > :10:46.rules at the moment. We think it needs a bit of taste as to MPs
:10:47. > :10:51.expenses. Daily Express, Treasury Chiefs get to work on cutting ties
:10:52. > :10:54.with Brussels and what are we left with, what kind of relationship do
:10:55. > :11:00.we want to have after it is all decided? No one knows what
:11:01. > :11:07.relationship we're going to have, or what we will have. Some are clear
:11:08. > :11:12.they don't want freedom of movement and they don't want to be part of
:11:13. > :11:17.the single market. A bit confused. Some of them surely know. We hope
:11:18. > :11:23.so. A lot of them have done a runner since the referendum. Some of them
:11:24. > :11:28.have been given high up jobs. They have. They have been awfully quiet
:11:29. > :11:32.on exactly what Brexit will mean. Doesn't it mean what it means when
:11:33. > :11:37.the result of a negotiation with current partners in the EU comes? It
:11:38. > :11:41.means whatever you want it to mean at the moment, that's the trouble.
:11:42. > :11:46.Maybe these talks will give some shape to it. We are not sure they
:11:47. > :11:51.are talks. It just as the department for EU as it have been contacted by
:11:52. > :11:55.the city. I am not sure what that means. They have fired up a couple
:11:56. > :12:02.of e-mails and gone on holiday. Are they experts? Officials. Experts we
:12:03. > :12:08.might need to listen to? Officials... Oh, officials in the
:12:09. > :12:10.city. This article refers to this poll showing two thirds of
:12:11. > :12:14.grassroots Conservative Party members don't want a similar deal to
:12:15. > :12:21.Norway. All sorts of different ideas were thrown about, weren't they,
:12:22. > :12:26.with Norway, Switzerland, Albania, wherever. Most people decided we
:12:27. > :12:30.didn't want to be like Norway because they still have to pay Ian
:12:31. > :12:33.and be part of it but they are not part of the decision-making process.
:12:34. > :12:41.They still had to have freedom of movement. I am not surprised two
:12:42. > :12:44.thirds of people survey it in this Express say they don't want it,
:12:45. > :12:51.because one of the big things was we wanted to have control of borders.
:12:52. > :12:54.Not freedom of movement. I am not sure how scientific this survey is
:12:55. > :12:59.but they have not asked what they do want. Well, they know what they
:13:00. > :13:07.don't want! It is easy to say that. I suppose what they want is the moon
:13:08. > :13:10.on a stick. You can't get that. Yet. The Daily Telegraph, it has such
:13:11. > :13:15.resonance with me, I hope it does with you - no, I hope it doesn't,
:13:16. > :13:22.actually. Morning eight. Your body is playing catch up. If you wake up
:13:23. > :13:27.feeling like you have aches in the morning, white? My hands feel really
:13:28. > :13:36.stiff -- aches. Anti-inflammatory proteins haven't kicked in. -- why?
:13:37. > :13:37.Limbs feel stiff because our body has been suppressing the
:13:38. > :13:44.anti-inflammatory proteins during sleep. Do you have that problem? I
:13:45. > :13:54.bet blues suppresses it even more, which is why you have even more than
:13:55. > :13:59.eight. That begins with an H. Marvellous. It has an education.
:14:00. > :14:02.That's it for the Papers for tonight.
:14:03. > :14:09.Coming up next, it's the Film Review.
