Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be | :00:00. | :00:18. | |
With me are Benedicte Paviot from France 24 and the editor | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
Tomorrow's front pages starting with... | :00:25. | :00:29. | |
The Times says followers of the radical preacher | :00:30. | :00:32. | |
Anjem Choudary are spreading hatred and Islamist doctrines freely | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
across the internet despite his conviction. | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
Nick Skelton is pictured on the Telegraph | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
Its main story focuses on the Help To Buy ISA. | :00:42. | :00:49. | |
It says the government's top up cannot be used for | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
The Mail says Theresa May has ordered a victory | :00:52. | :00:55. | |
parade 'fit for heroes' to welcome home Britain's Olympic team. | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
The FT reports that Royal Bank of Scotland will charge | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
some large corporate customers for holding their cash. | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
The Express reports on moves in the City of London | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
to prepare for Britain's exit from the EU. | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
And the Guardian looks at the effect on women seeking | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
abortions after services run by Marie Stopes were suddenly halted | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
Let's begin with the story of the heroes coming home to a heroes' | :01:20. | :01:39. | |
welcome on the front page of the Mail. Interesting to see that the | :01:40. | :01:44. | |
new boss of the UK, Theresa May, is interrupting her Swiss walking | :01:45. | :01:47. | |
holiday and apparently according to the Daily Mail, they seem to know | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
that she ordered a victory parade fit for heroes to welcome home | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
Britain's Olympic team. They certainly are extraordinary. What | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
we've been witnessing I gather on BBC One and BBC Two, the ice fog | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
women's final. I feel like I need a manual now -- ice hockey. What are | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
the British team on? Belief is extraordinary. To watch that | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
sacrifice over four years we haven't seen and then to watch these | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
results. They are all egging each other on but if you haven't done the | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
training then it won't happen. I have to say before I moved to Kevin, | :02:25. | :02:29. | |
with your French heritage, what do the French make of it trailing in | :02:30. | :02:35. | |
the wake? Trailing in the wake definitely, nine golds, seventh or | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
eighth I think. Extraordinary. The French cycling team, we know what | :02:42. | :02:43. | |
they think, they think the British team to disappear for a cycle they | :02:44. | :02:50. | |
say. What is interesting is the lottery funding. Clearly the British | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
teams know that they must do well at the Olympics so they focus on the | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
Olympics. But we know from London 2012, ancient history now, that the | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
French were very disappointed, they were world champions and they were | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
astonished, they accused the British of using special warmers for their | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
muscles and all kinds of things. We are not giving away any secrets | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
here! I am British and French so I can give some of them. Talking about | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
the parade, I as a northerner and pleased it is in Manchester I have | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
to say. I thought Dame Tessa Jau got it spot on. I don't want to | :03:33. | :03:37. | |
politicise it but was the government slow on this? It seems incredible | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
there was any doubt there would be some kind of a parade, I would think | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
there is a matter of course with this, given how successful Team GB | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
has been, that there wouldn't be an opportunity for the country to come | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
together and for ordinary members of the public to come out and see them | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
parading through the streets. Obviously it happened in London, | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
after the 2008 Beijing Olympics as well, I would have thought this has | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
been organised well in advance but it looks like it has been an | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
afterthought and they would have to step up to the plate at the last | :04:13. | :04:16. | |
minute. It is a nice touch it isn't in London. You think it is right and | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
proper to be outside London? It is very easy for these things to become | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
London centric and people assume it has to be the UK capital so it is | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
good to take it further north and that allows people from elsewhere in | :04:29. | :04:36. | |
the country to share in it. There will also be an event in London so | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
it is a good idea. Manchester isn't quite before midnight confirmed but | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
it is what the Daily Mail are saying. And other news channel is | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
confirming that. We will come back to Rio. Let's have a look at the | :04:50. | :04:55. | |
other headlines before we do that. Starting with this story in the | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
Times, is it any great surprise with Anjem Choudary out of the way there | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
are still acolytes putting videos on the web? The fact of the matter is | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
the one that has been charged and convicted is Anjem Choudary. What | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
this article in the Times talks about is the fact that the Internet | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
is failing to take down his acolytes, the people that he has | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
convinced. I think the fact of the matter is what this underlines is | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
the fact YouTube really is a fantastic, as we know, platform, and | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
that this really needs policing, that's the word that is appropriate. | :05:36. | :05:43. | |
Because the Internet has just become this extraordinary platform for all | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
kinds of things. But it does mean that there needs to be a real | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
policy, whether it's from the UK government, the French government, | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
there needs to be a consistent policy and therefore discussions | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
with YouTube and Twitter and social media, but we know that when things | :06:01. | :06:04. | |
are taken down they often reappear. This is very important because what | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
we have seen and what the intelligence services in France and | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
Britain and Germany and Switzerland and elsewhere are telling us clearly | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
is that it is no longer in mosques that people are being radicalised, | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
it's in their bedrooms via the Internet that contracts are being | :06:21. | :06:26. | |
made. We think the Nice attack... Another person died today so the | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
death toll in Nice is now 86 dead among the many hundreds of | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
injured... Is that the two people we think who were responsible for the | :06:36. | :06:42. | |
murder of the catholic priest up near Rouen were two people that met | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
via social media, who had never met before. This really needs to be | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
addressed or else it makes a mockery of other security measures that we | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
are taking. There's a lot of frustration about Twitter in | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
particular not pulling down things that quite clearly are inflammatory. | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
Exactly. There's an argument when you could say that technology is | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
moving so quickly that as quickly as YouTube take these things down, | :07:10. | :07:13. | |
others can put them back up again and how do they keep on top of it? | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
It's quite a resource to pay for that kind of thing. You mentioned | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
Twitter, there was a thing this week about people saying any footage of | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
the Olympics that wasn't authorised was being pulled down by Twitter | :07:28. | :07:30. | |
instantly. It can be done. Because of corporate violations and there | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
was money to be made. They are saying things like Twitter trials | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
and abuse. Death threats, rape threats. They are much slower to | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
act. This is another example of the Internet, a great resource and | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
platform, but how it can be used and abused by people with evil intent. | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
Yet it needs a crackdown but how do you police it? I don't know, you can | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
try but it is almost like trying to hold back the tide, you know? | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
Talking about difficulty in policing, this takes us rather | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
neatly to a decision in Germany to ban the Muslim veil. A partial ban. | :08:09. | :08:17. | |
This is pretty divisive because lots of people are saying, hang on, you | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
are ordering people to bear their flesh when maybe they don't want to, | :08:22. | :08:26. | |
but there are other considerations, especially in fly France. One has to | :08:27. | :08:33. | |
be careful because people tend, for example I have seen on Twitter in | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
the UK to have... And they I'm titled to have very British | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
reactions to a British context. That they are entitled to. But then they | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
apply it to France and Germany -- they I'm titled to. In France there | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
is a law against the veil and it's a different context -- they are | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
entitled to. In Germany I understand, unlike France, it is a | :08:59. | :09:02. | |
secular state, very much for bidding wearing of the kneecap, the burqa, | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
in public spaces. -- for bidding the kneecap. In Germany it is freedom of | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
religion and trickier to implement. Apparently this isn't overly | :09:17. | :09:20. | |
divorced from the fact there are big elections in Germany next year. | :09:21. | :09:23. | |
What's interesting is the interior minister, who is half French and | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
half German, the Maiziere, who has talked about this and is proposing | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
this, it is about a partial ban on the face veil in schools and | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
universities. It is clear on the back of the attacks in Germany there | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
is a certain backlash in Germany towards Muslim refugees coming from | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
Afghanistan and Iraq and Syria. What the German government of Angela | :09:53. | :09:56. | |
Merkel are being accused of is pandering to those fears instead of | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
saying, as Angola Merkel said the other day, this isn't related to the | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
influx of refugees. You mention Angela Merkel coming under lots of | :10:06. | :10:12. | |
political pressure, her poll ratings are on the slide, she was very | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
popular, obviously there is an anxiety in Germany now, there's more | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
of these random, lone wolf attacks. She has been partially blamed or | :10:23. | :10:25. | |
wholly blamed by many people on the right in particular in Germany for | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
opening the doors to refugees from Syria. This I think should be seen | :10:32. | :10:38. | |
in that context. It is a way of saying we get it, we are not | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
completely pandering to them. This is a way of being tough on Islamism. | :10:44. | :10:52. | |
It is a gesture and it is not something we would ever see | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
introduced in this country. I don't think it would be implemented but it | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
is just talked about. It must be underlined that Germany is home to 4 | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
million Muslims, as the paper points out, 5% of its population. France | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
the highest, around 6 million Muslims. Let's move on to the | :11:12. | :11:15. | |
Telegraph. Kevin, what about this story about the betrayal of help to | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
buy scheme savers. This is a terrible story and this is a | :11:23. | :11:28. | |
Telegraph Mac exclusive. George Osborne in what turned out to be his | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
last budget unveiled the help to buy ISA, which was the way the | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
government would top up people's savings to get a deposit for a new | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
home, and which, as we know in London, first-time buyers are | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
finding it impossible to come up with the money for a deposit. It was | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
widely mel, welcomed. It was a decent return, for every ?200 saved | :11:56. | :12:01. | |
the government would add 50, it's lots of money up to ?15,000. In the | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
small print it turns out it can't be used for a deposit. The money is | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
only released once the sale is completed. The thinking is that you | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
can use it for the first few months' mortgage payments or something like | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
that. What is the point? The argument is, what is the point? If | :12:20. | :12:24. | |
you can't get a deposit in the first place you will never complete on a | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
sale so you can't access the money. The point is you would need the 25% | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
on top of your savings to afford the deposit. Unless you are fortunate | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
enough to have rich parents, the bank of mum and dad to help you out. | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
This certainly wasn't how it was sold at the time by George Osborne, | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
who conveniently has left the stage now and it seems he has left a mess | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
behind him. This is embarrassing for Theresa May because one of the first | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
things she said when she arrived in number ten, a quality. Opportunity. | :12:58. | :13:03. | |
That is why the word betrayal is used by the Telegraph -- equality. | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
More than half a million people have taken on this Help To Buy Scheme | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
ISA, given the chance of getting on the ladder but now it has been taken | :13:15. | :13:18. | |
from under them. Moving on. The bottom of the Guardian, a story | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
about the children in Aleppo, we don't need reminding after the | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
pictures this week of the five-year-old boy who was dragged | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
out of a building that had been bombed. Apparently he didn't cry, I | :13:30. | :13:34. | |
was reading today, he has been reunited with his parents, which | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
hasn't been published everywhere. It seems it's only when the children | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
are on the front pages of the newspapers that we take any notice. | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
It does seem that way, but it seems when the Guardian does an excellent | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
article like this on the front page, that is also what real journalism is | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
about. Emma Graham Harrison writes a really compelling story. It is | :13:56. | :14:02. | |
continued on page 15. It describes this orphanage that is actually two | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
floors below in a basement. It is an extraordinary couple who are called | :14:08. | :14:18. | |
Azamar and his wife, his name isn't there a lass. But there are 50 | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
children who are being looked after in this orphanage, which apparently | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
means outstanding guys. It talks about the subterranean Haven. It is | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
a haven for those children. Emma Graham Harrison talks about how if | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
we think Omran had it bad, the little child we saw bloodied and so | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
shocked that he couldn't even and didn't even cry, these are orphans | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
who have either lost both of their parents and they range in age from | :14:52. | :14:56. | |
two to 14, all one of their parents, their mother or father has died, and | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
the other has had a nervous breakdown or can't cope or has been | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
separated from them. These orphans are being educated. They play. They | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
used to be taken outside but it is now too dangerous with the Russian | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
airstrikes and the Syrian government bombings. Let's finish on a happier | :15:16. | :15:18. | |
note and look at the picture on the Daily Express. Nick Skelton, so many | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
good stories, you can't do them all justice, but at 58, with replacement | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
hip. A broken neck. Extraordinary. We've got a meeting at 16, the | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
youngest member of the team taking bronze, now the oldest member taking | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
gold. The oldest or over 100 years apparently. Since 1908 -- for over. | :15:43. | :15:51. | |
You want to know the oldest? He was called John Copley and he won a | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
silver medal in art. Art? Art was an Olympic discipline up until 1948 and | :15:59. | :16:06. | |
Jo his engraving was called Polo Players. The oldest Olympian was a | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
Swiss man who won gold that year for watercolours. What I love is this | :16:13. | :16:19. | |
hero... He was 73. I love the fact that Nick Skelton... Sorry, but he | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
had a broken neck, he's got an artificial hip and he was riding a | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
horse that was predestined to win this called Big Star. I love the | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
humility of the man who says he is almost speechless, which seems to be | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
rare for him, and he says then that he did really well. He's just | :16:40. | :16:45. | |
talking about his horse, Big Star. He doesn't even talk about his | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
experience or wisdom and boy did it pay off. Bravo. We are out of time. | :16:50. | :16:51. | |
That's it for the Papers tonight before you go these front pages have | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
Don't forget all the front pages are online on the BBC News website | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
where you can read a detailed review of the papers. | :17:01. | :17:02. | |
with each night's edition of The Papers being posted | :17:03. | :17:10. | |
on the page shortly after we've finished. | :17:11. | :17:13. |
