:00:00. > :00:00.the party decision to ban new numbers from voting in the

:00:00. > :00:14.leadership contest will not take decades the Supreme Court.

:00:15. > :00:26.Hello and welcome to look ahead to the papers. With us, John Stapleton

:00:27. > :00:29.and Esther McVey. Welcome both. Thanks for having us again.

:00:30. > :00:35.Delighted to be here, especially tonight. Because we are winning. I

:00:36. > :00:41.thought he might have said because it was me! Double gold Olympic

:00:42. > :00:48.medallist Max Whitlock makes many of the pages. He is draped in a union

:00:49. > :00:55.Jack savouring one of his victories. DfT reports that Brussels intends to

:00:56. > :00:58.tighten its grip on Web services. Theresa May has ordered Tory

:00:59. > :01:05.ministers to stop dithering and organise the Brexit as soon as

:01:06. > :01:09.possible. The paper goes with the headline gold rush. The Metro has a

:01:10. > :01:14.similar idea. Super Sundays they their triumphant front page. We will

:01:15. > :01:21.start with that. It is so good to have, after months of difficult news

:01:22. > :01:25.stories, have all this fun. People love good news, particularly on a

:01:26. > :01:33.Monday morning. The papers are quite right to splash this. This is

:01:34. > :01:40.phenomenal. Max has won two golds in the space of an hour. In the league

:01:41. > :01:43.table we are second behind the USA, ahead of China. Britain ahead of

:01:44. > :01:49.China in the medals table. And Andy Murray is with -- of a chance of

:01:50. > :01:56.winning gold. Listening to them being interviewed afterwards, Max,

:01:57. > :02:01.you won your gold, will you win the second? Your nerves could get the

:02:02. > :02:07.better of you. You could go out there and fluff it. And he didn't.

:02:08. > :02:09.He was cool as a cucumber. They have been so magnanimous, so caring and

:02:10. > :02:18.sharing to their partners. Very honest. Laura Trott, whoever it was,

:02:19. > :02:27.Wiggins, it has been sensational. I was watching the two Belgian girls

:02:28. > :02:36.who won the heptathlon against Thompson Johnson. But what was

:02:37. > :02:41.really striking about that and many of the events was the warmth between

:02:42. > :02:48.these two. They were applauding each other when an opponent did well.

:02:49. > :02:53.They hugged each other at the end. Jessica Ennis-Hill did at the end of

:02:54. > :02:57.competition. I was so thrilled. I wish that spirit would sometimes

:02:58. > :03:02.transferred to football. We have done our very best, this has been

:03:03. > :03:06.four years. Therefore, it does allow you to congratulate someone who is

:03:07. > :03:11.better than you. That was what was so amazing. That they were

:03:12. > :03:15.excellent. This camaraderie. And knowing when somebody better than

:03:16. > :03:24.you won. What a sacrifice they have made. Dedicating their lives to it.

:03:25. > :03:30.Are you going out on a bike now?! Yellow Madrid is a bit late. There

:03:31. > :03:39.was a lot of stuff after the last Olympics asking what happened to the

:03:40. > :03:43.Olympic legacy. People send that had playing fields not been closed down

:03:44. > :03:46.how much better we might have done. The National Lottery money has made

:03:47. > :03:49.a big difference. They have been giving the training facilities to

:03:50. > :03:55.enable them to compete on a level playing field, if you don't mind,

:03:56. > :03:58.with the opposition. Whether it was Chris Boardman coming into the

:03:59. > :04:03.cycling, it totally revolutionised it. He knew how to win, he knew how

:04:04. > :04:08.to get team tactics better. He knew how to get a strategy in place. We

:04:09. > :04:13.need to keep going. We will be ahead of America next time! Who knows? It

:04:14. > :04:21.is really great. We do have other stories. It is a bit like saying

:04:22. > :04:26.we're banging on too much! Not at all. We were waiting to see if we

:04:27. > :04:30.could show you this. Here it is, the old-fashioned way. The Huffington

:04:31. > :04:34.Post, Labour members give up on supreme challenge to leadership vote

:04:35. > :04:38.but fight -- pledged to fight on. They will not go to the Supreme

:04:39. > :04:42.Court because it will cost too much money. They steamed -- seem to think

:04:43. > :04:50.it has been worth challenging the decision. The court came to the

:04:51. > :04:53.right decision, saying that the precise eligibility criteria shall

:04:54. > :04:59.be defined by the National Executive Committee. They say the rules of

:05:00. > :05:08.your party should set what is really going on. To be fair, it is a sad

:05:09. > :05:11.story for a Labour. It is what is going on beneath all of this. It is

:05:12. > :05:18.poisonous. It is splitting the party. You haven't got the MPs

:05:19. > :05:22.behind the leader. You haven't got the members with the MPs. You have

:05:23. > :05:26.got new members with their leader. It is for them are very

:05:27. > :05:30.uncomfortable period and it will not get any better. I completely agree.

:05:31. > :05:36.I think it is very sad. These people are entitled to take the action they

:05:37. > :05:40.did. They opened up the debate about democracy. But at the end of the day

:05:41. > :05:44.it is an irrelevance. The real story is that the Labour Party is in such

:05:45. > :05:47.deep trouble, it is tearing itself apart. That is bad for the country.

:05:48. > :05:51.Every government needs a strong opposition. There isn't a strong

:05:52. > :05:56.opposition. There is every prospect it will get weaker. It has

:05:57. > :06:02.implications across the board. People want certainty in the

:06:03. > :06:05.country. It impacts business, exporter. You do need a strong

:06:06. > :06:11.opposition. Nobody knows where this is going to go to, but it will be an

:06:12. > :06:21.ugly fight and probably an ugly end. Prime Minister, get this out of the

:06:22. > :06:27.EU and fast, according to this one. This is a story the express loves.

:06:28. > :06:32.She says, crack, that, we have decided we are going. The story this

:06:33. > :06:36.morning in one of the papers, to which this is a response, is that

:06:37. > :06:41.they are dilly-dallying of it and making excuses. She said of two

:06:42. > :06:50.departments and they're not ready yet. -- set up two departments. They

:06:51. > :06:55.are saying maybe they cannot do it as quickly as they thought. Maybe it

:06:56. > :07:07.will take until 2019, 2020. Crack on with it. Crack, that, stop messing

:07:08. > :07:14.about. We are further ahead than we. Were We are ahead of the curve in

:07:15. > :07:17.one sense. The country needs confidence. People need to know

:07:18. > :07:21.where you are going. She is right. Crack on with it and get on with it,

:07:22. > :07:27.but equally, there are practicalities. But I do believe the

:07:28. > :07:37.civil servants will be going at top speed. They are in a meeting at

:07:38. > :07:42.7:30am to start the process going. Good heavens, what sacrifices will

:07:43. > :07:51.they make next?! Page two of the Daily Express is about Boko Haram,

:07:52. > :07:55.and kidnapped 276 young girls from Chibok. We are not going to show you

:07:56. > :08:02.the photograph because we have been trying to preserve the anonymity of

:08:03. > :08:05.these young girls. Some of whom have reportedly been raped and badly

:08:06. > :08:11.abused, forced to marry their captors. Here they are being put in

:08:12. > :08:15.a video to say, we would prefer to hand them over but we want some

:08:16. > :08:19.fighters back. It is an appalling story. And heaven knows what has

:08:20. > :08:24.happened to these girls in two years. And heaven knows why it so

:08:25. > :08:29.long to find them, to identify them. The government is saying, we want to

:08:30. > :08:33.make sure. They claim to be talking to the captors but they want to be

:08:34. > :08:39.sure they are talking to the right captors. Good heavens, it is two

:08:40. > :08:46.years. The terrain is not helpful. But even so... This is a

:08:47. > :08:53.horrendously brutal group. Since 2009, they have killed 20,000 people

:08:54. > :08:56.and displaced 2.8 million people. When they say they want their

:08:57. > :09:00.prisoners out of jail to return these girls, you have to think what

:09:01. > :09:05.happened last time. They took 105 of their own members out of prison, and

:09:06. > :09:08.an extra 600 prisoners, and more violence and death followed suit.

:09:09. > :09:16.The negotiations will have to be well judged. A couple of stories in

:09:17. > :09:20.the FT. This one will be interesting if you can sum it up for us.

:09:21. > :09:26.Brussels to tighten grip on Web services in telecoms shake-up. That

:09:27. > :09:30.is trying to get regulations right for a grey area in the law. They

:09:31. > :09:36.want to make sure that places like WhatsApp and Google and Facebook

:09:37. > :09:42.comply with requests for things like security, and also comply with

:09:43. > :09:46.things, how do they make their money from the details of their customers?

:09:47. > :09:56.I think for too long it has been a wild West. They are well ahead of

:09:57. > :10:00.the curve. I do not think it is policed or regulated properly. These

:10:01. > :10:07.are companies, some of only about 15 years old, when you look at it,

:10:08. > :10:11.Google as 2 trillion hits a year. Bigger than most companies because

:10:12. > :10:16.it has managed to go into the space, the World Wide Web, and basically

:10:17. > :10:22.like a Trojan horse, suck it up. Would you talk about the next one?

:10:23. > :10:27.Energy suppliers put their foot in gas suppliers. It is an astonishing

:10:28. > :10:30.story of the bottom of the front page. Thousands of gas customers

:10:31. > :10:36.have been overcharged because energy suppliers have made a sick mistakes

:10:37. > :10:46.reading their meters. They have confused old imperial meters with

:10:47. > :10:51.new ones. This affects all six big energy suppliers, apparently. Some

:10:52. > :10:55.people have been undercharged by 60% and some people have been

:10:56. > :11:01.overcharged by 130%. What this story does not make clear, possibly

:11:02. > :11:04.because it is not evidential, is how much these people will be

:11:05. > :11:10.compensated and when? Beggars belief. I love the bit that they are

:11:11. > :11:21.overcharged by 130% but undercharged by 60%. How many energy suppliers

:11:22. > :11:26.will confuse gas meters in people's houses? They are the experts. How do

:11:27. > :11:32.you put it right and when will it be put right? Finally, Buzz feed.

:11:33. > :11:38.Nadiya Hussain, who famously won The Great British Bake Off and baked a

:11:39. > :11:42.cake for the Queen, has been talking to desert Island discs saying she

:11:43. > :11:49.has been facing racism, that it has been part of her life for years.

:11:50. > :11:54.Almost a daily occurrence. Listening to it, I thought what dignity --

:11:55. > :11:58.dignity she had. In terms of how she was dealing with it and confront it.

:11:59. > :12:04.She said, this is my home, I love it here, but I will not meet and match

:12:05. > :12:08.that can of ugliness and vitriol myself. How she has dealt with it is

:12:09. > :12:16.tremendous. But the fact she has to deal with it that macro and her

:12:17. > :12:22.children as well. It is jealousy. There will be various other emotions

:12:23. > :12:30.as well. These can of attacks have increased. This story does not

:12:31. > :12:32.detail it, but would -- woman assumed these attacks increased

:12:33. > :12:39.after Brexit. Whatever your thoughts about Brexit, we will not go into

:12:40. > :12:48.that one tonight. It was proven statistically it did unleash racism.

:12:49. > :12:54.She was born and bred in Luton, this goal. And no one, no matter where

:12:55. > :13:01.they are born, should be subject to that kind of abuse. That is it.

:13:02. > :13:08.Because it is a Sunday, John and Esther will be back with a second

:13:09. > :13:12.look at half-past 11. Coming up next, Meet The Author.

:13:13. > :13:14.The athlete Eric Liddell is the man whose story was immortalised

:13:15. > :13:18.in the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire.

:13:19. > :13:21.A strict Christian, he refused to run in the hundred metres

:13:22. > :13:24.at the Paris Olympics in 1924, because the race
