:00:16. > :00:19.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be
:00:20. > :00:22.With me are Tony Evans, sports columnist for
:00:23. > :00:24.the London Evening Standard and Caroline Wheeler,
:00:25. > :00:26.political editor of the Sunday Express.
:00:27. > :00:28.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with
:00:29. > :00:32.The Sunday Telegraph leads on disquiet among military chiefs
:00:33. > :00:37.at a secret criminal investigation into British troops accused
:00:38. > :00:40.of mistreating two Iraqis - themselves believed to be
:00:41. > :00:43.responsible for murdering two British soldiers 13 years ago.
:00:44. > :00:47.The Sunday Times publishes a hitherto unseen article written
:00:48. > :00:50.by Boris Johnson on why the UK should remain in the EU -
:00:51. > :00:53.the paper says it was written two days before the now
:00:54. > :00:58.Foreign Secretary came out in favour of Brexit.
:00:59. > :01:01.The Observer splashes on criticism of the prime minister's so-called
:01:02. > :01:05.obsession with grammars by the head OFSTED.
:01:06. > :01:16.The Express warns that thousands of chemists will close if spending
:01:17. > :01:19.cuts due to be announced this week go ahead.
:01:20. > :01:23.The Mail on Sunday gives its front page over to the SAS soldier who's
:01:24. > :01:25.facing murder charges after admitting shooting dead two
:01:26. > :01:35.or three fatally wounded Iraqis during combat.
:01:36. > :01:42.We must not confuse Sunday versions and weekday versions. They are very
:01:43. > :01:47.different. We will start with the Sunday Times. Boris and his case for
:01:48. > :01:55.the UK to stay in Europe. What is going on? He wrote two versions of
:01:56. > :02:02.the peace. Obviously. He decided at the last moment which when he uses.
:02:03. > :02:08.According to this what he did was he wrote the remaining piece to clear
:02:09. > :02:12.his mind and put the counterarguments and make sure that
:02:13. > :02:19.he was on the right path. We believe him, millions would not. It is a
:02:20. > :02:26.friend of ours, a friend of the programme, Tim Shipman, it is his
:02:27. > :02:32.new book called all-out war. He must be so happy you have plugged it. It
:02:33. > :02:38.is his new book which is out just in time for Christmas. He should pay me
:02:39. > :02:43.for this. Embarrassingly for Boris Johnson the book says that the
:02:44. > :02:46.unpublished argument rehearsed warnings that Brexit could lead to
:02:47. > :02:49.an economic shock, Russian aggression and Scottish
:02:50. > :02:56.independence. That was written to make days before he came out in
:02:57. > :03:04.support of Brexit on February 19. This piece seems very kind to Boris.
:03:05. > :03:12.It also mentions further on that he did not do it, back Brexit, because
:03:13. > :03:16.he wanted to be Prime Minister. He was warned by his campaign manager
:03:17. > :03:20.that if it did come out for Brexit then he would be put in with the
:03:21. > :03:24.cast of clowns, people like George Galloway and Nigel Farage. He
:03:25. > :03:29.thought it would damage his chance of becoming Prime Minister. I have
:03:30. > :03:37.no extra sympathy for Boris Johnson except for one lion where he says he
:03:38. > :03:43.wanted to punch Michael Gove. We do not condone that sort of behaviour
:03:44. > :03:48.here. Prescription for disaster says the Sunday express. This is
:03:49. > :03:52.Caroline's pet is. Next week we understand there is going to be an
:03:53. > :03:56.announcement by the government that they will unveil spending cuts for
:03:57. > :04:00.chemists which could result in up to a quarter of them closing. As
:04:01. > :04:05.parents, for example, a chemist on your high street is an extremely
:04:06. > :04:09.valuable asset. There has been research done to suggest that people
:04:10. > :04:12.think a chemist is one of the most valuable assets on the high street.
:04:13. > :04:17.I think we have all been in that situation where we have an ill child
:04:18. > :04:23.who has a developing cloth or a temperature and we need to get
:04:24. > :04:27.advice. There are suggestions that the community run ones on the high
:04:28. > :04:31.street are going to come a cropper and are going to close down. We have
:04:32. > :04:36.been running a campaign saying that this is not on. It is not a great
:04:37. > :04:43.deal of money and government turns and they should reverse it. People
:04:44. > :04:47.do value services like this. We do but not the Conservative Party
:04:48. > :04:51.because it is part of an ideological attack on the health service. Cuts
:04:52. > :04:55.have to come from somewhere? There are lots of places where you can
:04:56. > :05:00.trim budgets without affecting the health service. They would like to
:05:01. > :05:04.push us towards an eye direction of an insurance based healthcare
:05:05. > :05:12.system. I get that from their thoughts and actions. They don't
:05:13. > :05:17.make us do that. They will. A big argument is that many of us use our
:05:18. > :05:22.pharmacies instead of our GPs and that keeping pharmacies open is
:05:23. > :05:29.cheaper than hiring more GPs. There is a lot to get through today. The
:05:30. > :05:35.Sunday Telegraph. Are we outraged at the betrayal of up Iraq war troops.
:05:36. > :05:39.This goes back 13 years. Two British soldiers were murdered, the two men
:05:40. > :05:44.suspected of that have complained of ill treatment at the hands of
:05:45. > :05:50.British soldiers. The only possible betrayal in this has taken 13 years
:05:51. > :05:57.because these two Iraqis were accused of murdering British troops.
:05:58. > :06:00.But the full force of the law. But British soldiers were accused of
:06:01. > :06:03.maltreatment. And if they did they also deserve the full weight of the
:06:04. > :06:10.law because it's not mistreat prisoners or suspects. One of the
:06:11. > :06:16.taken so long? It has been a secret investigation? This is being
:06:17. > :06:20.investigated thousands, thousands of these caves there are so many that
:06:21. > :06:23.it has taken this long to get through. That is a scandal. But the
:06:24. > :06:27.scandal is also about the large amounts of money the lawyers have
:06:28. > :06:32.been earning pursuing these cases against people doing their work in
:06:33. > :06:35.the line of duty. He sang back, however, I am not saying that they
:06:36. > :06:42.should not be investigated because if there are allegations were cannot
:06:43. > :06:47.call for a moratorium on it. The other military story. The despicable
:06:48. > :06:51.betrayal of an SAS hero. He has been facing eight murder charge for
:06:52. > :06:57.possibly shooting three Iraqis who were mortally wounded. Again, a
:06:58. > :07:02.similar article to the Sunday Telegraph except this time it is an
:07:03. > :07:06.SAS this is a hero. What they are describing is that this officer was
:07:07. > :07:13.involved in mercy killings, the suggestion being that the Iraqis
:07:14. > :07:20.were mortally wounded. I think it is an alarming allegation at any case.
:07:21. > :07:23.It is insidious and the fact is to call him a hero, what gives him the
:07:24. > :07:28.right on the battlefield to make decisions that these people were
:07:29. > :07:34.mortally wounded. It is a confusing place. It may be confusing and
:07:35. > :07:38.morality might go out the window if he has done this it is wrong and it
:07:39. > :07:46.is against the Geneva Convention and it needs to be investigated. And if
:07:47. > :07:50.he has killed people... Again, it has taken 13 years and that is what
:07:51. > :07:54.it comes back to over and over again. The length of time it has
:07:55. > :07:58.taken. The new do something atrocious not it is not fun for
:07:59. > :08:02.anybody. Especially this case which is about telling people it should
:08:03. > :08:08.have come to a head much earlier. The Observer. The chief of OFSTED
:08:09. > :08:13.same zip session of Theresa May with grammar schools. In a Michael thinks
:08:14. > :08:19.they are divisive and the focus should be on other types of
:08:20. > :08:22.education. All the research, everyone in education suggests that
:08:23. > :08:28.grammar schools are actually, they do not help social mobility. They
:08:29. > :08:35.don't improve education. It seems a throwback to the days of the 1950s
:08:36. > :08:42.and the image of Britain as a grammar school, cricket and you stop
:08:43. > :08:46.what he is saying that it should not be about grammar schools and whether
:08:47. > :08:50.you think they are good or bad. We are meant to be focusing on our
:08:51. > :08:54.vocational education. But from having spoken to just been grinning
:08:55. > :08:58.recently, that is exactly what she's doing. She is not saying grammar at
:08:59. > :09:02.the expense of anything else she sang a grammar for some children who
:09:03. > :09:06.are progressing in an academic level but for other children who want a
:09:07. > :09:11.vocational qualification they will focus on those in terms of growing
:09:12. > :09:14.homegrown skills. It is decisive, however because you end up with two
:09:15. > :09:18.levels and grammar schools will always be seen as the better of the
:09:19. > :09:26.two. That is exactly why we should not return to that. We have come
:09:27. > :09:33.from technical schools, grammars and secondary modern. Your focus on
:09:34. > :09:42.vocational skills, but it wasn't. You are here, you got here. From
:09:43. > :09:51.very different ways no doubt. Corbyn accused of creating a safe space for
:09:52. > :09:54.anti-Semites. Across group have looked at what is going on inside
:09:55. > :09:59.the Labour Party. The Select Committee has been looking into this
:10:00. > :10:04.issue of anti-Semitism and they have singled out the Labour Party for
:10:05. > :10:07.serious criticism, suggesting they have become not only a safe space
:10:08. > :10:14.but also institutionally anti-Semitic. Two important points
:10:15. > :10:18.here. One is that this is cross-party. It had three Labour MPs
:10:19. > :10:23.on it. The claim that Corbyn is making that it is politicising the
:10:24. > :10:29.issue and is anti- labour falls down in the face of the fact that Labour
:10:30. > :10:33.MPs backed the findings and have served on the committee. The other
:10:34. > :10:44.thing that clearly comes out of this is that the Labour Party had its own
:10:45. > :10:51.enquiry into anti-Semitism led by a member and this report went further
:10:52. > :10:55.than that review. This suggestion is that the leadership is inconsistent.
:10:56. > :11:00.One of the things we have seen through Jeremy Corbyn's hole period
:11:01. > :11:06.as leader is that there has not been enough strong leadership and has not
:11:07. > :11:10.been enough direction for the Labour Party. If things are allowed to
:11:11. > :11:17.drift they will get worse and the comeback to say it is... We should
:11:18. > :11:21.leave it, given that it is a cross-party committee it does seem a
:11:22. > :11:26.bit weak. We still have the Independent. A picture of the women
:11:27. > :11:30.of Donald Trump supporting him as he goes onstage at another campaign
:11:31. > :11:40.rally. Standing by their man. After all he has said about women. Facets
:11:41. > :11:42.of Dolly Parton! There is a whole section of disenfranchised American
:11:43. > :11:49.society who will support Donald Trump. That was Tammy Wynette. Stand
:11:50. > :11:55.by your man. It was, it was. There is a whole section and some of them,
:11:56. > :11:59.there is a whole section of American society that no matter what Donald
:12:00. > :12:06.Trump does they will vote for him. They are so out of sync with
:12:07. > :12:11.mainstream American politics. It is also to do with the fact that there
:12:12. > :12:16.are two generally quite unpopular candidates here. The very strange
:12:17. > :12:19.thing is that he is standing against a female who could be the first
:12:20. > :12:23.female President of America and the sisterhood has not got back behind
:12:24. > :12:28.her whatsoever. And, actually, they run the risk of not knowing what is
:12:29. > :12:32.going to happen in a couple weeks time because ultimately it could be
:12:33. > :12:39.elected. Sometimes it is hard to be a woman. In the Observer, Nicola
:12:40. > :12:42.Sturgeon... At least, I find it is. Nicholas Sturgeon, starting pledges
:12:43. > :12:46.for a new independence vote to save Scotland from high Brexit. She has
:12:47. > :12:49.been saying the same thing consistently now ever since the
:12:50. > :12:53.referendum on June 20 three. Basically she is trained to make
:12:54. > :12:59.overtures all the time to suggest that Scotland, who voted 66% to
:13:00. > :13:04.remain should be given a vote in terms of independence so we can then
:13:05. > :13:07.go it alone to make its own deal with the European Union. The problem
:13:08. > :13:10.is that the European Union has consistently said that they don't
:13:11. > :13:16.think so. Donald has refused to meet her. France and Germany has said
:13:17. > :13:21.that they will deal with the UK only. I don't know what she will get
:13:22. > :13:26.out of this ultimately. After all, she is talking to an audience that
:13:27. > :13:33.very much wanted to stay in the EU. If we are in for? Given that the
:13:34. > :13:36.commitments and the level of the referendum was that unless this
:13:37. > :13:41.situation changed materially, I think there is a lot of to-ing and
:13:42. > :13:45.fro-ing in horse trading. I think it would be one of the great ironies of
:13:46. > :13:48.history if the Brexit broke up the union. That would be very funny.
:13:49. > :13:53.Northern Ireland will not want waters with the South. Other people
:13:54. > :13:57.may not share your sense of humour, Tony. That is it for the papers.
:13:58. > :14:04.Thank you very much. We rattled through them. Purchase a newspaper
:14:05. > :14:06.tomorrow, that will keep us going. Next up is the film review.
