:00:00. > :00:00.the Film Review. Will be talking about Nocturnal Animals with one of

:00:00. > :00:12.its stars, Amy Adams and the director Tom Ford.

:00:13. > :00:16.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be

:00:17. > :00:20.With me are the broadcaster, John Stapleton and the former

:00:21. > :00:24.Conservative Employment Minister, Esther McVey.

:00:25. > :00:29.The Financial Times which says the government's

:00:30. > :00:32.considering paying the EU billions of pounds to retain Single Market

:00:33. > :00:41.of a looming economic crisis on both sides of the border.

:00:42. > :00:45.The Express says that pro-Remain MPs are plotting to halt a full exit

:00:46. > :00:52.Hammond is accused of trying to 'undermine Brexit'

:00:53. > :00:58.The Sun's top story is on legal actions against British troops.

:00:59. > :01:04.It reports Prince Harry has described them as 'a'joke'.

:01:05. > :01:07.The Mirror splashes on the search for missing toddler Ben Needham.

:01:08. > :01:09.It shows his grieving mother and grandmother and the police

:01:10. > :01:15.The Metro reports claims by a charity that seven out of ten

:01:16. > :01:18.tenants are living in damp or infested homes.

:01:19. > :01:31.which says that 40% of homes are below an acceptable living standard.

:01:32. > :01:38.Let's start with the times. One of the papers that is looking at

:01:39. > :01:43.Phillip Hammond's attitude towards what Brexit should look like.

:01:44. > :01:50.Hammond clashes with Brexiteers on migrants. He worries that curbs

:01:51. > :01:58.could harm business. As you said that in the headline, the accountant

:01:59. > :02:04.quick, that is the sort that I had. The Chancellor of the Exchequer

:02:05. > :02:08.behaving like an accountant. He raises what many people say is a

:02:09. > :02:16.valid point, if we expect school workers to come here to have visas

:02:17. > :02:20.and put a block on nonskilled workers, businesses that will be

:02:21. > :02:26.affected. Farming, for example, relies on casual labour. Unless,

:02:27. > :02:31.they decide to pay more money and then British people may decide to do

:02:32. > :02:35.the job. His counselling caution and being criticised for doing so. He

:02:36. > :02:43.did not like the idea, the potential idea of visas for skilled workers.

:02:44. > :02:50.He asked us to look at the options. We all laughed at that joke about

:02:51. > :02:55.him being an accountant. Later on he said he is facing accusations as

:02:56. > :02:59.part of a pattern of behaviour on which the Treasury has failed to

:03:00. > :03:03.provide construct if assistance to the Brexit process. That is the

:03:04. > :03:06.problem, not whether or not is acting like an accountant because

:03:07. > :03:09.that is as it should be, but whether he is acting on behalf of the

:03:10. > :03:16.Treasury which did not necessarily want to go along the Brexit vote and

:03:17. > :03:21.they were not really accepting the fact that the country voted to go

:03:22. > :03:25.out. What David Davis voted for was the best access to the EU but

:03:26. > :03:29.outside the EU and working within that. What people wanted when they

:03:30. > :03:33.voted for Brexit actually was a control so that we could have say

:03:34. > :03:37.over what was going on. But you cannot frustrate will of the people.

:03:38. > :03:41.Get a good deal but do not frustrate them. Do you think Hammond is

:03:42. > :03:46.comfortable? He and his Treasury officials or are they frustrated

:03:47. > :03:51.even more? They need to look to see what best way forward is. It is not

:03:52. > :03:55.for them as a couple of important people without doubt but the vote

:03:56. > :04:00.has been given and you go forward and say how do we do this? You look

:04:01. > :04:09.at the other countries with big trading partners with the EU,

:04:10. > :04:15.Russia, China and the US. They were to WTO rules. We could do that.

:04:16. > :04:19.There is another aspect. Cabinet paying billions to keep single

:04:20. > :04:24.market access. For some people Brexit meant not been part of the

:04:25. > :04:29.single market. Many people who voted Leave would say that we thought the

:04:30. > :04:33.whole deal was that we dictate our own laws, curb immigration and do

:04:34. > :04:37.not need to pay the EU billions of pounds every year. But this suggests

:04:38. > :04:41.that in order to keep the city sweet and functioning we may have to keep

:04:42. > :04:45.doing that. It would be something of a surprise. Look at the paper it is

:04:46. > :04:49.in. The Financial Times. Of course they are. The people they want to

:04:50. > :04:54.sell this newspaper to any other bankers. You've got to listen to it,

:04:55. > :04:58.it is an important industry but at the end of the day what we cannot

:04:59. > :05:02.have is now Brexit. If people want to be in the single market than

:05:03. > :05:06.paying for the bill is run by EU courts and also having free movement

:05:07. > :05:10.of people, you are still in the EU. You have not come out. It will take

:05:11. > :05:15.some explaining, like this piece set, it will not go down well in

:05:16. > :05:21.certain quarters. Let's move on and look at the Telegraph. A picture

:05:22. > :05:27.here of a Baroness facing an key's question over the timing of her

:05:28. > :05:33.peerage. A very successful woman. Ran Liberty for many years. Probably

:05:34. > :05:38.could have sat on the bench of labour at any point that it is the

:05:39. > :05:42.fact that she has been in charge of this anti-Semitism investigation

:05:43. > :05:45.within the Labour Party. It was ultimately seen as some by a

:05:46. > :05:49.whitewash and the question is at what stage did she accept the

:05:50. > :05:56.peerage from the Labour Party? Subsequently made shadow attorney

:05:57. > :05:59.general. I, like you, have known her well professionally. Interviewed her

:06:00. > :06:04.many times and have the highest regard. But this is a mess. We need

:06:05. > :06:09.clarification here. It appears that the allegation is that when she was

:06:10. > :06:12.asked by the then chairman of the relevant committee to provide an

:06:13. > :06:16.answer to the question when did you say yes to the peerage, she is yet

:06:17. > :06:20.to do so. She spoken about it had an interview with the BBC in but that

:06:21. > :06:25.is not really for a Parliamentary point of view satisfactory. Until

:06:26. > :06:31.that happens, you know, we are not clear about this. To be ferried is

:06:32. > :06:35.not just a few people complaining it is a whitewash it is the home

:06:36. > :06:39.affairs select call it committee as well saying that actually what you

:06:40. > :06:43.have within the Labour Party now is an institutionally it has become

:06:44. > :06:47.anti-Semitic and therefore there is a problem. Look at the timing. She

:06:48. > :06:52.was doing this report. It did not separate out what she was doing, it

:06:53. > :06:57.was not a thorough investigation at the same time she was, it appears,

:06:58. > :07:00.she is getting a peerage and she goes straight in with an appointment

:07:01. > :07:06.to the shadow attorney general position. All of that for herself

:07:07. > :07:10.she needs to come out and explain it because you up quite right, she has

:07:11. > :07:16.had quite a good career so far. This now is not looking too good for her

:07:17. > :07:27.or anybody else and that report was pulled. The daily mirror and the

:07:28. > :07:31.anguish of Ben's family. Over 20 years since the child disappeared in

:07:32. > :07:35.Greece. Many searches being done on a suggestion that he was killed by a

:07:36. > :07:41.digger driver. This poor family, you have interviewed them. 25 years,

:07:42. > :07:46.certainly in the early stages I was in touch with the family quite a lot

:07:47. > :07:51.and I cannot tell you, you can imagine what they have been through.

:07:52. > :07:57.Every time the phone rings in that house there is the thought that is

:07:58. > :08:01.this the tells them they have found and it is all over. Their life has

:08:02. > :08:05.been a rollercoaster. Emotions are peering down here, year after year

:08:06. > :08:08.after year. And there are people to say we should not be wasting time

:08:09. > :08:16.and money in pursuing this investigation. I would say that walk

:08:17. > :08:19.a mile in their shoes. I know it is an American word, but when you have

:08:20. > :08:24.no closure and when you have not seen a body or yawn not seen your

:08:25. > :08:31.child, you cannot put to bed as it were a new live with that for ever.

:08:32. > :08:36.I was on the Madeleine McCann board, working with Kate McCann because of

:08:37. > :08:41.the college with her. It is the most exhausting thing is living with

:08:42. > :08:50.hope, hoping that the phone call will come. Understanding that it is

:08:51. > :08:55.truly terrible. The Independent. Boris Johnson tries to explain his

:08:56. > :09:01.about-face on Europe. He wrote two articles. One in favour of remain,

:09:02. > :09:08.the other in favour of leave. He has had some questions. Two days after

:09:09. > :09:14.it published the article saying leave, of course, he came out, as it

:09:15. > :09:17.were. If you have read it it certainly is not a ringing

:09:18. > :09:22.endorsement to stay in. In fact the first half of it talks about how he

:09:23. > :09:26.was hoping that there would have been a wonderful renegotiation with

:09:27. > :09:31.Europe and he would come back and there would be things they could do.

:09:32. > :09:37.There was not. But why do it? Why write an article like this and white

:09:38. > :09:46.print it? At the time he was wondering what to do. Nobody would

:09:47. > :09:50.come out with their view until after the renegotiation. Sometime in

:09:51. > :09:54.February. He writes for the Telegraph every week. His view was

:09:55. > :10:01.to come out but he thought and he said, you know, he was looking into

:10:02. > :10:10.if there was anything he could support. So it was written for

:10:11. > :10:19.Boris's benefit? At the very end the yes the vote is a bit of a deal that

:10:20. > :10:25.it contains a germ of something good. It is not a ringing

:10:26. > :10:31.endorsement. Later on he said that he was a Brexiteer and he believed

:10:32. > :10:39.it was for the best of the country. Soul-searching is good. I was not

:10:40. > :10:43.somebody who was out automatically. I took a lot of soul-searching and a

:10:44. > :10:47.lot of understanding what was going on and eventually I came to the

:10:48. > :10:52.conclusion. I am glad he did all of that and I am glad he worked out and

:10:53. > :10:55.I am glad he went through a lot of anxiety because it is right to have

:10:56. > :11:00.the right decision for the country. Let us have a look at the Daily

:11:01. > :11:17.Mail. Victim is now blame victims for being burgled. He. A police

:11:18. > :11:24.officer has likened people who leave a window open and then asked police

:11:25. > :11:31.to investigate a burglary to people who are obese. And as the NHS for

:11:32. > :11:34.help. I have some sympathy for the police. They are overworked and

:11:35. > :11:40.undermanned. The research into school on the services. Some are

:11:41. > :11:46.grateful, some are not. I know when my house was burgled it was entirely

:11:47. > :11:51.my fault. They were around in a flash and I got a number and it was

:11:52. > :11:55.all over and done no time at all. It is a tricky one. I think years on

:11:56. > :11:59.thin ice here. He also said that what he wants to do is have more

:12:00. > :12:03.crime prevention so that people do lock doors and what they are

:12:04. > :12:09.concerned about here as student ignoring home security. They would

:12:10. > :12:13.soon go out. It is obvious. Close up and block the windows. Do the best

:12:14. > :12:15.you can. Of course it should investigate it.
