:00:14. > :00:16.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
:00:17. > :00:23.With me are Tom Bergin, who's Reuters' Business Correspondent and
:00:24. > :00:26.the Senior Political Correspondent at the Times, Lucy Fisher.
:00:27. > :00:34.Is that what you were the last time you came in? I think we give you
:00:35. > :00:36.many different titles! Welcome to both of you, fresh from a summer
:00:37. > :00:44.break! Tomorrow's front pages now... The Daily Express leads on words
:00:45. > :00:47.of optimism by the prime minister about Brexit
:00:48. > :00:49.and the UK's economic future. Allegations against Labour MP -
:00:50. > :00:51.and Chair of the Home Affairs Select Committee -
:00:52. > :00:53.Keith Vaz paying to meet male more on the Keith Vaz story -
:00:54. > :00:59.but a smiling Theresa May enjoying the limelight in China
:01:00. > :01:01.takes centre stage. Brexit makes the lead
:01:02. > :01:04.in the Guardian - the paper claims the Prime Minister has declined
:01:05. > :01:06.to endorse pledges made by the Vote Leave camp for a points
:01:07. > :01:08.based immigration system. The Times continues the theme,
:01:09. > :01:11.saying Theresa May has ruled out a points-based system
:01:12. > :01:22.for EU migrants. It also has a picture of the
:01:23. > :01:26.impressive replica of the Great Fire of London, set alight to commemorate
:01:27. > :01:27.their epic blaze that happened in 1666.
:01:28. > :01:29.Finally, the Daily Mail also runs the Keith Vaz
:01:30. > :01:39.So, let's begin with a few of the stories to do with the Prime
:01:40. > :01:44.Minister and Brexit. Warnings that are coming from various members of
:01:45. > :01:50.the G20, in particular. Let's begin with the Daily Express, may, no fear
:01:51. > :01:54.over a year exit but Prime Minister warns off watering the deal down
:01:55. > :01:58.with Brussels. What would that look like according to the Daily Express?
:01:59. > :02:04.They've been pretty clear that means we cannot stay in the single market.
:02:05. > :02:08.What is also interesting is coming onto the front pages of The Daily
:02:09. > :02:13.Telegraph, and whether she will accept some of the pledges made by
:02:14. > :02:17.the league campaign through the EU referendum, of course they were
:02:18. > :02:20.supported by the big beasts in the government by John Whittingdale,
:02:21. > :02:24.Chris Grayling, but it was not government pledges -- Leave
:02:25. > :02:29.Campaign. The idea that 100 million extra pounds a week would be given
:02:30. > :02:33.to the NHS after leaving the EU. VAT should be cut, she's not giving into
:02:34. > :02:39.those ideas and leaving the door open at the moment. Watering down is
:02:40. > :02:45.not necessarily Britain's choice, is it? There are people in other parts
:02:46. > :02:51.of the EU we had to negotiate with? Obviously, the Brexit campaigns were
:02:52. > :02:54.clear that they wanted to have a single example with Boris Johnson
:02:55. > :03:00.describing it as having your cake and eating it. But we live in a
:03:01. > :03:03.real-world, and our partners, or potential partners, have ground
:03:04. > :03:07.rules. They say that you can have free movement of access if you want
:03:08. > :03:14.it to the market. And you have other things are potentially not just
:03:15. > :03:17.mutually exclusive, but they also said that they wanted access to
:03:18. > :03:22.regulated markets without following regulations of those markets. This
:03:23. > :03:27.means Theresa May is in a difficult position as she has so many
:03:28. > :03:30.conflicting objectives that it is very difficult for them to achieve
:03:31. > :03:35.theirs. The Daily Express does not want her to compromise on anything
:03:36. > :03:39.and achieve everything at the same time. But some in favour of Brexit
:03:40. > :03:45.don't want to be part of the single market anyway? Because of all of the
:03:46. > :03:50.other elements that have to go along with that, like freedom of movement?
:03:51. > :03:53.Absolutely, there is such a plurality of opinion, Theresa May
:03:54. > :03:58.can continue to say Brexit means Brexit but we are no more clear on
:03:59. > :04:02.what that means. I understand David Davis, the Secretary of State, will
:04:03. > :04:05.make a statement in the house tomorrow, I don't think we will see
:04:06. > :04:09.more detail then but it's interesting, the tone of the Daily
:04:10. > :04:15.Express is still a paper that pushed leaving the EU, they have had that
:04:16. > :04:18.is a key agenda for years now, they are optimistic, reporting her
:04:19. > :04:22.optimism, telling the G20 that Britain is open for business.
:04:23. > :04:25.Everyone is waiting to see what happens, pressure is behind her.
:04:26. > :04:30.Everyone is weighing up what is going on. But she can only wait so
:04:31. > :04:33.long, the reality is people of investing as the Japanese pointed
:04:34. > :04:40.out, but we don't know what will happen. The ex-head of the European
:04:41. > :04:45.bank has said that you have to get a move on with this. The Daily
:04:46. > :04:49.Telegraph, PM could stop Boris is plan for a points-based immigration
:04:50. > :04:53.system, this was muted by Boris Johnson during the campaign to
:04:54. > :04:56.suggest that we could have something like the Australian system where you
:04:57. > :05:01.get access to Australia if you meet certain criteria and gain certain
:05:02. > :05:07.points. Why is she thinking this would work for us? A couple of
:05:08. > :05:10.things, there's this watering down question, is this a possible
:05:11. > :05:16.trade-off? Basically, the Financial Times goes into more detail, Theresa
:05:17. > :05:20.May may have a more relaxed system for EU citizens, so they can come to
:05:21. > :05:24.the UK without fulfilling all of the criteria that non-EU people would
:05:25. > :05:28.make. She would be doing that with a view to getting access to the single
:05:29. > :05:35.market. On the other hand, the other reason she may want to do it is if
:05:36. > :05:38.you talk to businesses, if they've spoken to international businesses
:05:39. > :05:41.since the vote, they make it clear that one aspect they like about
:05:42. > :05:45.Britain is that they can get a lot of people in easily. It's all very
:05:46. > :05:49.well talking about these systems but the easiest ones to get still take
:05:50. > :05:53.six months. If you are a business that relies a lot on bringing in
:05:54. > :05:58.talent, you don't like these kinds of systems. It might be another
:05:59. > :06:01.factor Theresa May is thinking of, if the economy goes south, she won't
:06:02. > :06:05.want to bring in new elements that could slow it down further. And
:06:06. > :06:12.seasonal workers who come in to help, particularly with agriculture?
:06:13. > :06:20.You are right, if she tries to curb immigration, that is what many
:06:21. > :06:24.Brexiteers are saying, she gets net migration to come down, but today
:06:25. > :06:28.she said there was no evidence that a points-based system works. The
:06:29. > :06:32.suggestion may be that Number ten is looking more and quotas for work
:06:33. > :06:36.permits, the idea being that if you judge people by age and skills, they
:06:37. > :06:40.have to tick the boxes and many people could fulfil those criteria
:06:41. > :06:43.so it may be better to set a concrete upper level for people
:06:44. > :06:49.coming in. Let's look at The Guardian on this story, Mae refuses
:06:50. > :06:55.to guarantee Brexit pledges, promises on NHS and immigration in
:06:56. > :06:59.doubt. Another subheading, Japan and US warned Prime Minister of exit
:07:00. > :07:03.risks to Britain. Barack Obama not going back on what he said during
:07:04. > :07:08.the campaign, saying we would negotiate with the EU before we talk
:07:09. > :07:13.to the UK. A stern warning from Japan? Yes, it's interesting,
:07:14. > :07:17.doubling down on his warning, making it clear he believes Britain made
:07:18. > :07:21.the wrong decision in the EU referendum, they not only is it more
:07:22. > :07:24.important for the US to negotiate with the EU, but also in the block
:07:25. > :07:29.of Pacific nations, he's making clear that we are at the back of the
:07:30. > :07:34.queue. And Japan have said we have a lot of workers in the UK, in the,
:07:35. > :07:37.new factoring and technological industries, we expect the same
:07:38. > :07:45.privileges and access that we currently enjoy -- in the car
:07:46. > :07:49.manufacturing business. Won't this smack of more interference by
:07:50. > :07:54.foreign countries? That really got people's backs up in the campaign?
:07:55. > :07:58.Possibly, but we have a statement coming out today, Britain will lead
:07:59. > :08:02.the way on free trade. There's the idea that Britain can push ahead
:08:03. > :08:10.through sheer determination. It does not really fit with the way that
:08:11. > :08:14.trade deals work. You cannot lead a trade deal, you need two people.
:08:15. > :08:20.The whole perception in how it works, what is being depicted is
:08:21. > :08:24.that it is very much by good. Trade deals now are about regulation and
:08:25. > :08:30.not tariffs, they are pretty passed as an issue since the WTO. There is
:08:31. > :08:32.the fundamental problem when you negotiate trade deals like
:08:33. > :08:38.regulation, that is what they are about now. And they take a lot of
:08:39. > :08:42.time, the WTO is still going on! The Metro, a very different story,
:08:43. > :08:48.this is what has been happening with the story surrounding Keith Vaz, the
:08:49. > :08:52.Leicester East MP, a Labour MP, here is chair of the home affairs select
:08:53. > :08:56.committee or he has been. It says that he steps down as head
:08:57. > :09:02.of home affairs committee after paying for male ex-Scots.
:09:03. > :09:08.They are all allegations, nothing is against the law -- escorts.
:09:09. > :09:12.Nothing has been confirmed, but there are whisperings that he's
:09:13. > :09:14.planning to step down on Tuesday when the committee meets. He's been
:09:15. > :09:18.head of the committee for nine years.
:09:19. > :09:22.One of the most influential in Westminster, but it does of course
:09:23. > :09:27.mean dealing with the Home Office and policies looking into those, it
:09:28. > :09:30.deals with advice and there's an enquiry on prostitution and laws
:09:31. > :09:36.around sex workers. There will be questions raised about
:09:37. > :09:39.appropriateness of him remaining as head when he is alleged to have
:09:40. > :09:44.engaged with prostitutes. Over the weekend it has been stated
:09:45. > :09:49.over and over again that there is nothing illegal about paying for
:09:50. > :09:53.sex, it is illegal in some parts of the UK?
:09:54. > :09:57.It is a difficult area. Had he solicited a prostitute from a car it
:09:58. > :10:02.would be illegal, in certain circumstances in the UK and Northern
:10:03. > :10:09.Ireland it is illegal to pay for sex in most circumstances. It's a tricky
:10:10. > :10:13.legal area to be in. It seems, as Jeremy Corbyn said, even if the
:10:14. > :10:18.allegations are true, Mr Vaz has not done anything illegal. But the fact
:10:19. > :10:24.that this is an area where the legality of alleged activity, there
:10:25. > :10:28.is a broad dispute over it, and it puts them in a difficult position.
:10:29. > :10:33.Yes, these are all allegations at the moment, nothing confirmed but
:10:34. > :10:38.also Mr Vaz has said he is deeply disturbed by The Sunday Mirror
:10:39. > :10:41.choosing to pay for access to this story.
:10:42. > :10:48.Let's move on and look at The Times newspaper. NHS blows nearly ?2
:10:49. > :10:54.million in payoffs to bosses, who is getting these hand-outs? It seems
:10:55. > :10:57.these are the bosses of NHS various units, who are getting very
:10:58. > :11:01.significant pay-outs for leaving their jobs, partly because there was
:11:02. > :11:03.a rationalisation and more people were made redundant than might
:11:04. > :11:10.normally be the case. In one sense, the NHS... It is big,
:11:11. > :11:14.or the numbers will be big and we will be outraged by the payoffs to
:11:15. > :11:18.bosses who we may not feel huge amounts of sympathy for. The
:11:19. > :11:22.government said that there would be payoffs that would be capped at a
:11:23. > :11:26.certain level of ?95,000. It seems we had pay-outs going up to
:11:27. > :11:30.several times that amount. There seems to be a case to answer,
:11:31. > :11:35.as to why the rules have been broken and the figure is big not just
:11:36. > :11:38.because the NHS is big but because rules were not followed.
:11:39. > :11:41.We don't know exactly what their individual contractual agreements
:11:42. > :11:46.were with some people and if they were entitled to these bonuses and
:11:47. > :11:53.payoffs? We do not have the details here but the real nub of the story
:11:54. > :11:57.is that this goes back to the widely criticised top-down reorganisation
:11:58. > :12:01.implement it by Andrew Lansley in 2010 during the coalition
:12:02. > :12:07.government. That is when he abolished 150 bodies, and created
:12:08. > :12:11.more. It was the largest restructure in the history of their NHS and has
:12:12. > :12:15.led to payments that people have said are down to the restructuring.
:12:16. > :12:19.There's been a revolving door system in many cases, people leaving one
:12:20. > :12:23.unit only to become re-employed by the health service in another
:12:24. > :12:31.capacity, some people have said it smacks of waste. Let's look at the
:12:32. > :12:35.Express, page two, Mother Teresa, she was made a saint.
:12:36. > :12:38.It attracted huge crowds in the Vatican.
:12:39. > :12:42.In 2016, the canonisation of the woman who died in 1997, it has been
:12:43. > :12:54.greeted with great enthusiasm. And the
:12:55. > :13:01.compassion that she had for the working Kolkata, it has captured the
:13:02. > :13:06.public's imagination. -- the poor in Kolkata. It is a touching moment,
:13:07. > :13:11.whether you are Catholic or not, seeing someone canonised who gave so
:13:12. > :13:13.much of their life to eliminating poverty. She is controversial in
:13:14. > :13:20.some of the things she did, some think that her legacy was entirely
:13:21. > :13:23.good? Growing up in Ireland, people took for granted that she was
:13:24. > :13:28.already a saint, she was a significant figure among Catholics
:13:29. > :13:33.for a long period of time. The controversy, yes, that's been here,
:13:34. > :13:36.you made the point of alleviating poverty, the accusation was that she
:13:37. > :13:42.did not tackle the causes of poverty.
:13:43. > :13:47.Regarding compassion, the questions around alleviation of pain, and in
:13:48. > :13:52.Ireland, in the past, one of the issues was that in Catholicism,
:13:53. > :13:59.Payne brings you closer to God. That may have led to pain relief not
:14:00. > :14:03.being distributed as otherwise it would have done -- pain. The whole
:14:04. > :14:08.issue of sainthood is difficult for some Catholics as the idea of
:14:09. > :14:15.granting miracles is something that maybe does not tell nowadays with
:14:16. > :14:19.our scientific outlook. It's not without controversy but as Lucy
:14:20. > :14:22.said, is hugely popular to the faithful.
:14:23. > :14:26.And The Daily Star, Struck the winner decided already, and the
:14:27. > :14:32.dancers have not even taken to the floor yet, they've been rehearsing.
:14:33. > :14:37.A fixed claim made by James Jordan, who used to be one of the
:14:38. > :14:43.professionals on the show. It is shocking. The late has gone off,
:14:44. > :14:55.what can you believe in! Fairies! Obviously you can, I'm not a major
:14:56. > :15:04.Struck a fan, but it captured my attention, if they are reading a
:15:05. > :15:09.contest based on career political trajectories, it can be serious.
:15:10. > :15:13.Similar claims made last year during the competition that it was a fix?
:15:14. > :15:17.It overlooks the fact the audience gets to vote? I'm not sure on the
:15:18. > :15:24.basis of this former dancer who no longer appears on the show... I
:15:25. > :15:33.don't know their claims, but as we approach the anniversary of 9/11
:15:34. > :15:40.Mac, conspiracies of truth, Jeremy Corbyn supporters...
:15:41. > :15:46.People see conspiracies and wrecked contests where there are none.
:15:47. > :15:52.Amanda is our editors tonight, and a fishy order low of Stictly, they
:15:53. > :15:59.have not even began to dance yet. -- aficionado. That's all for now,
:16:00. > :16:00.but Tom and Lucy will be back in an hour but now, time for Meet The
