:00:17. > :00:19.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be

:00:20. > :00:22.With me are Jason Beattie, who's the Political Editor

:00:23. > :00:24.of the Daily Mirror, and Mihir Bose, a columnist

:00:25. > :00:31.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with?

:00:32. > :00:34.The call by the head of the CBI for laxer regulations is headlined

:00:35. > :00:42.The Metro's headline reads "Non, merci" in response to calls

:00:43. > :00:45.in France for a new deal with Britain which would allow

:00:46. > :00:48.migrants to claim asylum in Britain before they step on to British

:00:49. > :00:52.The Telegraph has the same story on its front page,

:00:53. > :00:55.adding that the Home Secretary is to meet her French counterpart

:00:56. > :00:57.tomorrow to say that Britain will not negotiate changes

:00:58. > :01:01.And The Daily Express says Britain is facing a "migrant disaster"

:01:02. > :01:05.after the French proposal to change asylum rules.

:01:06. > :01:08.The Guardian has a special report, saying the UN has awarded contracts

:01:09. > :01:10.worth tens of millions of dollars to people associated

:01:11. > :01:19.with President Bashar al Assad under the Syria aid programme.

:01:20. > :01:21.The Daily Mail's headline is "le stitch-up", saying French calls

:01:22. > :01:28.for asylum centre in Calais has sparked fury.

:01:29. > :01:40.Plenty to get our teeth into. Let's start with the metro. This

:01:41. > :01:47.subheading is, Home Office slab stone called by Calle chief to let

:01:48. > :01:55.migrants claim asylum in France. Full what you have is post Brexit

:01:56. > :01:58.fallout. France is saying, why do we have these rules could make you have

:01:59. > :02:06.some genuine concern about what is happening in the Calle camp. There

:02:07. > :02:16.is the lie are as many as 10,000 people living there in horrible

:02:17. > :02:21.conditions. --. Noticeably, it's the potential right wing French

:02:22. > :02:36.candidates, including Nicolas Sarkozy, and Alain Juppe, saying,

:02:37. > :02:38.hang on, via we allowing the Le Touquet agreement, struck in 2003,

:02:39. > :02:46.which says that we have border controls here. Then the local French

:02:47. > :02:49.president of the region has gone one step further, saying, this agreement

:02:50. > :02:53.is not working, people who want to apply for asylum in Britain should

:02:54. > :02:58.do it here rather than waiting to cross. In the corridors of

:02:59. > :03:07.Whitehall, as well as on the high streets of Britain, this is

:03:08. > :03:12.contentious. The Home Secretary, Amber Rudd, is going over tomorrow.

:03:13. > :03:18.When she met Francois Hollande back in July, -- when Theresa May met

:03:19. > :03:23.Francois Hollande in July, they agreed that the Le Touquet agreement

:03:24. > :03:33.would stay in place. Immigration is quite an inflammatory issue which

:03:34. > :03:41.sometimes, particularly in France, is a card you would play. Wet a lot

:03:42. > :03:46.will depend on Amber Rudd's visit tomorrow. It is a treaty between two

:03:47. > :03:56.countries. The other country could want to break that. It is nothing to

:03:57. > :04:02.do with Brexit, they say, but obviously it is fallout from Brexit.

:04:03. > :04:07.Depending on how the election goes, and Nicolas Sarkozy will probably

:04:08. > :04:15.face Marine Le Pen in the final run-off, one could expect the claims

:04:16. > :04:18.and counterclaims of the policies he advocates are going more towards the

:04:19. > :04:21.idea of controlling immigration. I expect it is the first step of a

:04:22. > :04:29.debate that will go on until well after the election. It is not part

:04:30. > :04:32.of the Brexit negotiations. Wads of headlines on the same story, but

:04:33. > :04:38.we'll move on to the Financial Times, where we are also talking

:04:39. > :04:43.Brexit. He we go again! CBI calls for softer regulation as Europe

:04:44. > :04:47.tries to woo city banks. Interestingly, it says this call for

:04:48. > :04:52.more lax regulations as a delegation from Poland heads to London on a

:04:53. > :04:55.charm offensive to lure some of Britain's biggest banks to Warsaw,

:04:56. > :05:01.and it follows attempts from other European cities. The prize of London

:05:02. > :05:10.banking is something that will have to fight hard for. Once we leave,

:05:11. > :05:17.once the exit is made, a lot of the banking will move away, and London

:05:18. > :05:29.will no longer be the banking centre. Frankfurt, Paris, Amsterdam,

:05:30. > :05:32.even Poland, as you mentioned. This 8% tax on profits going is what they

:05:33. > :05:37.are suggesting. You could understand banks asking for that of wide

:05:38. > :05:40.business in the city would ask for, irrespective of whether the move

:05:41. > :05:45.away from the city takes place or not. The Mirror has not always been

:05:46. > :05:49.sympathetic towards the bankers. The element I was about to jump in and

:05:50. > :06:00.say that they are pulling a fast one. -- I was about to jump in and

:06:01. > :06:05.say they are pulling a fast one. They don't like the staff

:06:06. > :06:15.regulations, they never have. They still fail to accept their guilt and

:06:16. > :06:20.contribution towards other natural crash in 2008. And they got off

:06:21. > :06:24.lightly. They did. Not a single banker in the UK has been jailed for

:06:25. > :06:30.compared to the United States, where a large number have. Theresa May has

:06:31. > :06:35.been very strong. The disparity between the haves and the people not

:06:36. > :06:41.having that much has grown, and she wants to reduce the disparity. If

:06:42. > :06:46.she suddenly takes the banks off of the naughty step, that would be

:06:47. > :06:49.counter to what she has been suggesting. Perhaps a change of

:06:50. > :06:59.leader would make the CBI's called desperate. I would be surprised if

:07:00. > :07:02.the Conservative Party wasn't sympathetic to some of its major

:07:03. > :07:08.backers who also happened to work in the city. I also do think this is

:07:09. > :07:14.the city trying to exploit a situation. Here is another battle.

:07:15. > :07:19.Same story, but a different one. Apple hit for billions in back tax

:07:20. > :07:24.after Irish state aid ruling. It is likely to go appeal by both Apple

:07:25. > :07:29.and Ireland, who both deny any wrongdoing, but they are saying that

:07:30. > :07:34.it was illegal state aid from Ireland to lure Apple in. It has

:07:35. > :07:39.been doing the rounds and there has been a battle between Silicon

:07:40. > :07:43.Valley, American high-tech business, and Europe. It shows the European

:07:44. > :07:48.Commission stepping in and getting back taxes from these naughty

:07:49. > :07:55.companies like Apple. We all now about these huge multinationals who

:07:56. > :08:01.don't pay tax to anyone. It is a battle that is ongoing. It reflects

:08:02. > :08:04.some credit on the nasty European union and the European Commission

:08:05. > :08:10.that they do look into these matters. Whether they were lightly

:08:11. > :08:13.bring... Managed to enforce the demand for billions and whether it

:08:14. > :08:16.will work is a different matter, but at least they are doing something

:08:17. > :08:22.more than most governments. Jason, it is something that Apple and

:08:23. > :08:29.Ireland say has nothing wrong with that. Normally there is a two-week

:08:30. > :08:33.embargo period, but this was published in a snap, apparently. I

:08:34. > :08:39.am fascinated because I remember going to Ireland in 2009 when the

:08:40. > :08:46.come true was reeling from the economic crash. An Irish politician

:08:47. > :08:51.said, the problem we have here is, we wanted Berlin levels of public

:08:52. > :08:57.spending, as in Germany, and we wanted Bermuda levels of taxation,

:08:58. > :09:00.and you can't have both. If this is true, for the Bennett of the

:09:01. > :09:07.lawyers, Ireland has been doing sweetheart deals -- for the benefit

:09:08. > :09:10.of the lawyers. All sorts of major companies have made their European

:09:11. > :09:16.headquarters in Ireland because of the low taxation. Ireland gets some

:09:17. > :09:23.of this investment, but it doesn't pay enough tax to pay for the health

:09:24. > :09:28.system and so on. They needed the UK to help them out. They did have a

:09:29. > :09:35.boom. And then they got a very big bust. Apple and Ireland deny any

:09:36. > :09:43.wrongdoing. The Guardian, and I haven't seen on other front pages at

:09:44. > :09:46.the moment, the UN aid mission in Syria pays millions to Assad's

:09:47. > :09:55.regime. They suggest lots of links to the president and deals made

:09:56. > :09:59.despite EU and UN sanctions. What is happening is that these are aid

:10:00. > :10:03.programmes but they are going to organisations that are friends of

:10:04. > :10:08.the Assad regime. One of them is linked to his wife. Or they are

:10:09. > :10:14.going to organisations which are boosting farming and agriculture,

:10:15. > :10:18.which is banned under the impositions of the EU, and there is

:10:19. > :10:23.no guarantee that this money that is meant to provide aid is not actually

:10:24. > :10:27.going straight to the Syrian regime and fuelling its military purposes

:10:28. > :10:32.and what it is doing to its people. This will be damaging to all sorts

:10:33. > :10:39.of charitable causes aimed at Syria, I suppose. The defence from the

:10:40. > :10:43.United Nations, it has put its hands up and said, yes, what are we meant

:10:44. > :10:46.to do? There is a humanitarian catastrophe taking place in this

:10:47. > :10:55.country. We need to try to get aid to them. They cited a hotel bill,

:10:56. > :10:59.saying there was $9 million spent in this hotel because it was the only

:11:00. > :11:04.safe one that our people can work in, but if we don't stay there, we

:11:05. > :11:08.can't even help a few people. They made this calculation, and it is a

:11:09. > :11:12.difficult moral judgment, that if we can help just a few people who, as

:11:13. > :11:18.we said other, are suffering appalling conditions, and almost six

:11:19. > :11:24.years of civil war now, they are saying, if we can't do that, what

:11:25. > :11:28.else are we meant to do? Walk away? It is a very messy, difficult moral

:11:29. > :11:33.decision. I have some sympathy for the United Nations. If you're

:11:34. > :11:38.dealing with totalitarian regimes and you then going to help people

:11:39. > :11:42.there, for the best of reasons, to help the people who are not getting

:11:43. > :11:48.basic supplies and so on, how do you divorce that from the control of a

:11:49. > :11:54.totalitarian regime? Argument to walk away? The victims of the regime

:11:55. > :11:58.will not be helped at all. It is such a difficult question. The Daily

:11:59. > :12:05.Telegraph next. Heart attacks are 50% more likely to be missed in

:12:06. > :12:09.women, a study has suggested. Apparently, many doctors think this

:12:10. > :12:13.only affects middle-aged, overweight men, but symptoms of women, it says,

:12:14. > :12:16.can be less obvious, meaning thousands of patients in need of

:12:17. > :12:24.heart treatment are sent away. Jason. Reading between the lines of

:12:25. > :12:27.this, there is not enough of the story to get the full picture of why

:12:28. > :12:34.this is happening, it seems to come down to basic misogyny. Doctors, and

:12:35. > :12:39.I presume they are both male and female, that heart attacks

:12:40. > :12:43.predominately happened to men and they are not looking for those

:12:44. > :12:49.symptoms among women, which makes you think, should they not be

:12:50. > :12:52.trained to think otherwise? What is interesting here and disturbing is

:12:53. > :12:58.that they seem to suggest that the symptoms are related to indigestion

:12:59. > :13:05.or neck pain. This suggests that they don't do proper diagnosis of

:13:06. > :13:10.what is happening. It is a case of, and we have heard it elsewhere, that

:13:11. > :13:15.the GP tends to say, just taken indigestion pill that will be all

:13:16. > :13:19.right. It was also in the Daily Telegraph, a small story, bottom

:13:20. > :13:23.right, that caught our attention, which is that shoppers want fruit

:13:24. > :13:30.and veg in pounds and ounces since Britain left the EU. This could have

:13:31. > :13:35.been written at any point during the summer. Hats off to Christopher Hope

:13:36. > :13:39.from the Telegraph, my old friend, for sneaking it in just before the

:13:40. > :13:44.silly season wire comes slamming down. It is a great story. It is

:13:45. > :13:51.unlikely to happen on the grounds that most of our scales, measurement

:13:52. > :13:57.and packaging are already metric. You are keen, Anju? I am keen

:13:58. > :14:09.because my weight would look much better. We would all be slimmer on

:14:10. > :14:18.the beam it -- under the metric system. In the tennis, a great win

:14:19. > :14:24.for Kyle Edmonds, who is 20, 21? One would say this is the dividend of

:14:25. > :14:33.Rio. It is a great victory against Richard Gasquet. He is top 15? Yes,

:14:34. > :14:39.13th seed at the US Open. There has been evidence that this is more than

:14:40. > :14:42.just... Andy Murray is exceptional player and has a good chance of

:14:43. > :14:46.winning the US open this year, and I would be surprised if he didn't. I

:14:47. > :14:53.don't want to put the mockers on him by saying that. The other Mike bets

:14:54. > :15:00.are off. And some football stories as well. Wayne Rooney to continue as

:15:01. > :15:07.England captain in the Guardian. Joe Hart informing Manchester City he

:15:08. > :15:11.wants to joint arena. Joe Hart's fall has been quite dramatic. Six

:15:12. > :15:14.months ago, he was undoubtedly the best goalkeeper in the country and

:15:15. > :15:20.no one would have thought that in not being in goal in an England

:15:21. > :15:23.team. With Pep Guardiola coming in, new manager, look at changing the

:15:24. > :15:29.team, and Manchester City doing well and so on, and Joe Hart, I feel a

:15:30. > :15:35.bit sorry for him. He will probably have lost his hair shampoo contract,

:15:36. > :15:42.for a start! Jason, as a fan of London clubs in general... Don't

:15:43. > :15:47.make me mention Charlton Athletic! Have they got a good goalkeeper? A

:15:48. > :15:54.good one on loan from Norwich at the moment. An interesting selection,

:15:55. > :15:58.but the tennis is the main photo on the back page in the sport section

:15:59. > :16:03.of the Guardian. Let's finish with this sad news that Gene Wilder has

:16:04. > :16:07.died. When I was watching it with our film critic earlier, we were

:16:08. > :16:12.watching the clips and, although it is sad that he has died, we were

:16:13. > :16:23.howling with laughter. He was a master of comic acting, wasn't he?

:16:24. > :16:28.Yet I was watching Blazing saddles, and he brought out the dramatic

:16:29. > :16:34.situation, and the humour, which was so funny. Everyone mentions Willy

:16:35. > :16:38.Wonka, but it was the films he did with Mel Brooks that I thought were

:16:39. > :16:47.the great ones. I love The Producers. Which has gone extremely

:16:48. > :16:53.well. Young Frankenstein. These were 70s and 80s, so it shows how long

:16:54. > :16:55.ago they were. But he was very good at sharing the limelight with a

:16:56. > :17:01.co-star, bouncing off another character. There was a slight

:17:02. > :17:04.melancholy in his eyes as well, like a lot of comedians. He had a darker

:17:05. > :17:11.side. Heaven will be laughing more now, which is superb. Superb timing.

:17:12. > :17:15.You saw him and you realise that when he delivered those lines, the

:17:16. > :17:20.way he delivered them... Thank you both very much indeed for your

:17:21. > :17:23.input. We will be coming back to the papers for another look and to see

:17:24. > :17:27.what else is coming in just over half an hour. Don't forget, all the

:17:28. > :17:34.front pages are online on the BBC News website. Also there, you can

:17:35. > :17:42.read a detailed review of the papers, and you can see us, with

:17:43. > :17:44.each night's edition of The Papers being published after it is

:17:45. > :18:00.finished. We'll be back later. It's been a nice day for most of us.

:18:01. > :18:04.A lovely evening, lots of clear skies. The week ahead looks not bad

:18:05. > :18:07.at all. Dry and warm in the southern half of the UK. The further north

:18:08. > :18:08.you go, the weather will be more
