:00:14. > :00:16.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:17. > :00:25.Giving up their Saturday evening especially for us...

:00:26. > :00:27.With me are journalist and author Toby Young

:00:28. > :00:33.Nice to have you both here, thank you.

:00:34. > :00:37.The Sunday Times says Theresa May's fired the Brexit starting gun,

:00:38. > :00:40.saying she'll launch a "Great Repeal Bill" in the Spring,

:00:41. > :00:42.scrapping the law that took Britain into Europe 44 years ago.

:00:43. > :00:45.The Express also has that story, proclaiming 'At Last!

:00:46. > :00:49.Brexit also leads the Observer - with claims from former

:00:50. > :00:52.Education Secretary Nicky Morgan that the UK turning its back

:00:53. > :00:54.on the single market and closing its borders doors

:00:55. > :01:01.to the single maket a hard Britain leaving the EU will lead to bigotry.

:01:02. > :01:06.It also has an interview Samantha Jefferies,

:01:07. > :01:09.the widow of Falklands hero, who this week won a High Court

:01:10. > :01:23.Brexit galore ahead of the Conservative Party conference in

:01:24. > :01:30.Birmingham, that is the subject likely to dominate the conference.

:01:31. > :01:36.The Sunday Times says this, May fire is Brexit starting gun, Tim Shipman,

:01:37. > :01:41.in an interview with him, sometimes we see him at the desk.

:01:42. > :01:44.How will this great repeal Bill work? The story is that she will

:01:45. > :01:50.introduce a bill in the next Queen 's speech proposing to repeal the

:01:51. > :01:57.1972 communities act, that took us in to the European Community. What

:01:58. > :02:02.it did was make EU law, European Law as it then was, supreme over British

:02:03. > :02:08.law. This would effectively be restoring sovereignty to the British

:02:09. > :02:17.Parliament. It is being presented, I think being spun, by to reason and

:02:18. > :02:21.her team, as a kind of Brexit means Brexit attitude towards Brexit -- by

:02:22. > :02:26.Theresa May and her team. We will repeal this act and make British law

:02:27. > :02:30.supreme again. But constitutionally it is difficult to imagine how we

:02:31. > :02:33.would withdraw from the European Union without repealing the European

:02:34. > :02:38.Communities Act. She would have to do that. I don't think it has much

:02:39. > :02:43.bearing on the hard versus soft Brexit debate. She is beginning the

:02:44. > :02:47.process though, formally, of Britain's withdrawal from the EU.

:02:48. > :02:51.There is no ambiguity about that going forward but the exact nature

:02:52. > :02:55.of what the relationship would be with the EU post Brexit is up for

:02:56. > :02:59.grabs. What is interesting is the fact that she has done this

:03:00. > :03:03.interview with The Sunday Times. It to political journalists complain

:03:04. > :03:07.there is not a lot coming from Downing Street, it is pretty

:03:08. > :03:12.watertight. She is carefully chosen her but all week we've had

:03:13. > :03:21.columnists gearing up and saying it is time she got started. Peter

:03:22. > :03:25.butterball on Saturday morning, and they are saying, what has taken her

:03:26. > :03:30.so long? Clearly this is the right time for her to press the starting

:03:31. > :03:35.button, don't you think? And I think, also, it has to be the way

:03:36. > :03:39.she tells it. As Frank Carson used to say, and how she tells it. How

:03:40. > :03:44.she put it across will matter of great deal tomorrow. If we look at

:03:45. > :03:53.the Sunday Telegraph's take on it, she says -- it says "Made takes it

:03:54. > :03:57.to EU law". If we take it all in, we have to rummage through to see which

:03:58. > :04:01.bits eventually down the track we would want to keep? That would mean

:04:02. > :04:08.British MPs would vote on it, rather than it being imposed upon us by

:04:09. > :04:12.Brussels, that is what... But we have always had a say in Brussels,

:04:13. > :04:18.haven't we? We sent our own ministers and MEPs to Brussels, but

:04:19. > :04:24.it brings it down to Westminster? I suppose, hitherto something like 59%

:04:25. > :04:30.of the UK laws originated... Toby, let's not get started on those

:04:31. > :04:35.percentages! No laws thereafter originating in Brussels would have

:04:36. > :04:41.to become additional. One of the things Theresa May is proposing to

:04:42. > :04:45.do -- British law. She is proposing to incorporate all those EU laws

:04:46. > :04:50.that apply to Britain at the moment into British law, and then decide

:04:51. > :04:54.which bit she wants to jettison at which bits we want to keep. At the

:04:55. > :04:59.moment, it would be taking lock, stock and barrel on to the British

:05:00. > :05:02.statute. So what is the point of Brexit? We had to have some laws to

:05:03. > :05:07.tide us over, we cannot have a vacuum... There would be a myriad of

:05:08. > :05:12.difficulties if we did not take all EU laws that apply to Britain, it

:05:13. > :05:16.would be illegal for the city to continue to trade. Nobody would know

:05:17. > :05:20.where they stood. We talk about British law, but there's no such

:05:21. > :05:24.thing, wouldn't Scotland have to take these laws for themselves? They

:05:25. > :05:28.have a separate legal system. We've not heard a squeak from Nicola

:05:29. > :05:33.Sturgeon today... She has responded on twitter to some of the things

:05:34. > :05:38.that people have... Only this evening. One of the details of this

:05:39. > :05:45.business, David Davis will give a speech, some of that has been leaked

:05:46. > :05:51.in the Sunday Telegraph, he will say various EU laws apply to workers'

:05:52. > :05:56.rights that will be incorporated into the British statute books. That

:05:57. > :05:59.removes the pillar of the labour remained case, which is that these

:06:00. > :06:05.rights would be in jeopardy the moment we voted to leave. That

:06:06. > :06:10.seems, I think, designed in part to ensure Jeremy Corbyn does not oppose

:06:11. > :06:17.the great repeal act. But assuming those laws remain on the statute

:06:18. > :06:21.books here, in Scotland and England and Wales and Northern Ireland... It

:06:22. > :06:27.makes my head hurt actually thinking about it! But it is one day at a

:06:28. > :06:32.time, isn't it? She has pressed the button, it will all start, and I

:06:33. > :06:39.think if these leaks are all true, she is preparing the way, hopefully

:06:40. > :06:43.what she is trying to do is get Brexit out way so she can talk about

:06:44. > :06:49.other stuff. It's the only story around! You have the Observer saying

:06:50. > :06:55.that hard Brexit would breathe new bigotry, says leading Tory. Nicky

:06:56. > :06:59.Morgan, the former Education Secretary, she was sacked in July

:07:00. > :07:03.and she was critical not so long ago that there is not a proper road map,

:07:04. > :07:08.she did not think Theresa May had a plan and now she is saying that

:07:09. > :07:15.there will be trump like attitude is growing in this country? Yes, she

:07:16. > :07:21.has decided to sound a note of dissent -- Trump like attitudes. On

:07:22. > :07:24.the eve of the Conservative Party conference, she has lead to some of

:07:25. > :07:28.her speech to the Observer newspaper. One of the reasons

:07:29. > :07:32.Theresa May is making the speech tomorrow and not as her set piece

:07:33. > :07:35.political speech later at the end of the Conservative Party conference,

:07:36. > :07:40.she hopes to park the issue and move on to defining what it is she stands

:07:41. > :07:44.for and what she wants the government to do over the next four

:07:45. > :07:52.years, aside from Brexit. She does not want to be defined by that. It

:07:53. > :07:55.is imposed upon her. It looks like there will be Cabinet members making

:07:56. > :08:01.dissenting speech to rob the conference, she will not clear the

:08:02. > :08:04.air at beginning to enable them to set out stall on Wednesday. They

:08:05. > :08:17.were not going to make it that easy for her. Let's finish with Brexit,

:08:18. > :08:28.and Matt's cartoon... He is so good at this... There is a man at the

:08:29. > :08:33.podium and he says this... It's brilliant. I think it is lovely. Who

:08:34. > :08:41.could have brought together Brexit and The Great British Bake Off? Now

:08:42. > :08:45.let's stay with the Observer. Syrian children pictured among the

:08:46. > :08:48.rubble south of Syria's border with Turkey.

:08:49. > :08:54.The headline, Russia warns US as hospital is hit in UN blitz.

:08:55. > :08:57.This is a hospital which is being hit for the second time in eastern

:08:58. > :09:01.Syria in three days. What is the warning from Russia?

:09:02. > :09:10.Russia is being blamed for these strikes? The whole thing makes you

:09:11. > :09:17.feel so helpless, I think. We cannot do anything about it. All you can

:09:18. > :09:24.say is, isn't it awful that they are attacking hospitals and aid convoys?

:09:25. > :09:29.When that baby was pulled out of the rubble the other day, the aid

:09:30. > :09:37.worker... The rescuer, he was in tears. I saw Kate Silverton in tears

:09:38. > :09:41.just talking about it. That's all you can do, you can cry and do

:09:42. > :09:45.nothing... We aren't even seeing the worst of the pictures. They are so

:09:46. > :09:49.gruesome we don't even put them on British television because they are

:09:50. > :09:55.so upsetting. You just want someone to stand up to Vladimir Putin. Yeah,

:09:56. > :09:59.what is shocking about this, there are a lot of things that are

:10:00. > :10:05.shocking, bombing a hospital is pretty shocking, but the fact that

:10:06. > :10:14.Russia is completely shameless. It is making no bones about the fact

:10:15. > :10:18.that it has barrel bombed a hospital in Aleppo. Essentially putting it

:10:19. > :10:23.out of commission. The kinds of bombs that burst open with

:10:24. > :10:28.immense... Causing immense damage because of the stuff they are packed

:10:29. > :10:34.with. It is a flagrant breach of international law. On the Telegraph

:10:35. > :10:34.front page, they have Boris, Apple Foreign Secretary, accusing Russia

:10:35. > :10:44.of double top -- double top strikes, they bomb a

:10:45. > :10:50.particular area so that first responders arrive on the scene, then

:10:51. > :10:56.bomb it again. That's old IRA tactics... It brings home how

:10:57. > :11:02.important it is that Donald Trump is not made president of the US, it

:11:03. > :11:10.looks like Donald Trump is a Putin puppet. What about the sport, and

:11:11. > :11:14.light relief. Sergio Garcia, he played amazingly well this

:11:15. > :11:18.afternoon. Toby and I will take a back-seat on this one... That's

:11:19. > :11:22.deferred to Philippa, a keen golfer herself, tell us why this is so

:11:23. > :11:29.exciting. The Ryder Cup is something very special. I have to say, I shot

:11:30. > :11:34.my blinds and get the ice cream in, and watch it for four days. I have

:11:35. > :11:41.been watching it all day today... We are lucky to have you here tonight!

:11:42. > :11:47.The first day was horrendous. Four down, the Americans won the first

:11:48. > :11:52.four matches, but today, this particular pairing, Sergio?Garcia

:11:53. > :11:58.and his partner, Cabrera Bello, they were four down again, four down,

:11:59. > :12:02.they were going to be wiped out but they started to fight back.

:12:03. > :12:07.Gradually one after the other, they pulled back. Something like four

:12:08. > :12:12.birdies in a row, and it meant half a point. Half a point does not sound

:12:13. > :12:17.very much but in terms of spirit, that half point is probably worth

:12:18. > :12:22.about three points, because they had been up against not only the

:12:23. > :12:26.American team but a really horrible partisan crowd. The behaviour of the

:12:27. > :12:32.American... Spectators has been appalling. They've been sharing

:12:33. > :12:38.missed putts, when someone's ball goes into the water... Heckling?

:12:39. > :12:44.Yes, it's just been awful. Might have whetted our appetite with that!

:12:45. > :12:49.Toby, you gone very quiet! Let's hope Toby can help us out with

:12:50. > :12:51.shoulder pads! This story on the front of the Sunday Telegraph, about

:12:52. > :13:09.Do -- Dynasty coming back. I don't hold

:13:10. > :13:14.out much hope. Dallas was revived in 2012, and it lasted for about three

:13:15. > :13:20.seasons before they pulled the plug. Dynasty was always... It was always

:13:21. > :13:30.the poor relation of Dallas. The Carrington 's and the Colbys, wasn't

:13:31. > :13:34.it? Yes, Jerry Collins in Dynasty. I was on the women's page when it came

:13:35. > :13:39.out, dispatched down to Harrods to do the first shoulder padded jackets

:13:40. > :13:43.that came in, they were fantastic. I took them into my editor, Sir Larry

:13:44. > :13:47.Lamb at the time, and we photographed them, just the jackets,

:13:48. > :13:51.and he looks at me and says, my wife would not wear a jacket like that

:13:52. > :13:55.without a blouse! And I thought, right, that's the end of my

:13:56. > :14:03.career... I wonder whether it will catch on again. Would you wear it? I

:14:04. > :14:07.certainly wouldn't, my shoulders are quite big enough without shoulder

:14:08. > :14:11.pads! That's all for The Papers this hour but Tony and Philippa will be

:14:12. > :14:15.back at half past 11 for another look at the stories making the front

:14:16. > :14:19.pages tomorrow. Stay with us on BBC News, at 11pm, more on the great

:14:20. > :14:21.repeal Bill announced by the Prime Minister Theresa May. Coming up

:14:22. > :14:23.next,
