next it is the Papers. From all of us that is it at from the sports | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
centre, good night. Welcome to our look ahead to the | :00:00. | :00:27. | |
Paperers. Good evening to you both. Tomorrow's | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
front pages starting with the i, leading with the MP who moved | :00:33. | :00:37. | |
colleagues to tears after reveals in the House of Commons she was raped | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
as a teenager. And the Metro reports on the human rights lawyer, who | :00:44. | :00:59. | |
could be struck off. And the Daily Telegraph: Saudi row widens Boris | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
rift with May. And the Garde clan Allies rally to | :01:05. | :01:13. | |
Johnson over gaffe. And the Daily Express: The Home | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
Office is making plans to house record numbers of asylum seekers. | :01:17. | :01:23. | |
And the Financial Times: Reporting on the European Central Bank | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
decision to cut back on the amount of bonds it buys every month. So, | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
let's begin. Let's start on the story that is led today, which is | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
Boris Johnson's unguarded comments about Saudi Arabia and Iran, of | :01:37. | :01:39. | |
course but especially Saudi, and this has widened the rift between | :01:40. | :01:51. | |
Boris Johnson and Theresa May? It Harold McMillan says that in this | :01:52. | :02:04. | |
case Boris could firmly be and it is very bad news when you are | :02:05. | :02:19. | |
Britain's top diplomat. So, you are saying he has made a | :02:20. | :02:36. | |
habit out of insulting foreigners, Dan, how is Boris viewed in the | :02:37. | :02:43. | |
company states? There is a risk with the undiplomatic comments he could | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
be considered a buffoon. But with Donald Trump coming into office | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
soon, Boris Johnson may have found a comrade in arms. Boris says what is | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
on his mind. He operates in the social media swaggering style. So I | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
was thinking Boris could be a dress rehearsal for Trump but only on a | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
smaller scale. Yes, I think that Boris Johnson may | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
dispute that but anyway. But interesting, if you look at the | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
coverage in your own paper, Randit of the row, the guardian is talking | :03:21. | :03:23. | |
about whether or not bourgeois speaking the truth when it came to | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
Saudi Arabia? That may be the case. In private, that these are views he | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
conveyed to the leadership of Iran and Saudi Arabia but the problem is | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
you don't say it in public. To convince someone of the merit of | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
your case as a diplomat you do it outside of the media limelight. You | :03:46. | :03:49. | |
don't seek the spotlight for this stuff but Boris can't help himself. | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
He wants to generate a headline. He is so used to doing it, he forgets, | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
what job he is supposed to play. This is difficult for somebody | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
leading us through the Brexit negotiations if you go around | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
insulting people and telling them you can have your cake and eat it, | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
it does not go down well with the opposite half when you are | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
negotiating with them. He has breached diplomatic protocol | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
but I cannot stop thinking of Donald Trump who recently went off script | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
and had a call with the leader of Taiwan, even though that went | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
against the American foreign policy with China. It is the similar | :04:31. | :04:35. | |
dynamic of going off script, saying what is on your mind and not | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
thinking of the consequence, perhaps not caring. | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
And the Garde said: That some are convinced there is a campaign to | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
undermine him as the Foreign Secretary from remain supporters and | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
EU politicians but these are words he has said himself? People in his | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
own party have been poking fun, the Prime Minister said she could put | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
down Boris Johnson and compared him to a dog, Philip Hammond used a key | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
economic speech to make fun of his attempt to gain leadership. So | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
people have been making fun of him, some have been saying that you have | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
to stop as he is being undermined on the stage abroad if you are | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
ridiculing him at home. He's not the top dog! His brass has | :05:28. | :05:39. | |
told him you are not representing their view, then they are not | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
working for me, then he is in trouble. | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
Dan, the New York Time, the executives keep their ears to Trump, | :05:48. | :05:52. | |
this is about him tweeting repeatedly about wanting to keep | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
large companies in the US and keep the jobs there? With the election of | :05:57. | :06:03. | |
Donald Trump we have an unprecedented case of an | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
entrepreneur becoming President. Many in the business world hope he | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
would be pro-business. He has gone on Twitter to dress down Boeing 777, | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
the producer of Air Force one, saying it is costing too much. He is | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
threatening to cancel the order. He recently did a deal with Carrier to | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
prevent them from moving factories with Mexico. He is turning out to be | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
quite drastic, so much so that Palin dressed him down for not addressing | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
conservative policies, it remains to be seen if he retains the line, how | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
the business community in the states and around the world will react. | :06:50. | :06:58. | |
About it is said here that CEOa are thinking hard about the consequences | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
of moving abroad? This is a problem. There are people on the campaign | :07:04. | :07:10. | |
trail who have nursed grudges and avenged opponents. But democracy is | :07:11. | :07:14. | |
won on trust and dictatorships run on fear. This bullying practice, it | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
doesn't sit well with people. The whole point of democracy is that you | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
can vote these people in, you expect to administer neutrally but if you | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
don't like them, you can kick them out. What is to stop this man | :07:30. | :07:41. | |
continuing to intimidate them when no-one rebuffs them? And he tweets | :07:42. | :07:49. | |
and no-one knows what he is really thinking. It is hard for us to | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
realise what some of these tweets can mean. | :07:56. | :07:59. | |
I think it is a dangerous phenomenon Yom. We should watch and worry. | :08:00. | :08:08. | |
But if he is defending American jobs, it is a pop Lincolnshire | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
thing? It is populist but it remains to be seen in economic terms if it | :08:13. | :08:18. | |
will back fire, saving 1,000 jobs to make a difference in macro economic | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
terms he would have to do this every two days. | :08:23. | :08:24. | |
Absolutely. It is just the very start. Yes. | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
Let's move on to the front page of the i. This is a troubling and a sad | :08:30. | :08:36. | |
story. An MP, Michelle Thompson and a | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
speech she made in the House of Commons, telling MPs she was raped | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
as a 14-year-old girl. A very moving intervention that was. | :08:46. | :08:53. | |
It is, it comes on this UN Day of the Elimination of Violence to | :08:54. | :08:59. | |
Women. So people were speaking about their experiences, she was talking | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
about a shocking crime perpetuated against her. There is a discernible | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
trend in politics where MPs are standing up to talk about their | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
personal experiences as it brings them closer to the public. So we | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
have had the Labour MP who spoke about losing a baby movingly last | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
few months ago, then Charles Walker, the Conservative MP talking about | :09:24. | :09:26. | |
suffering from mental illness and to some extent it puts the politicians | :09:27. | :09:30. | |
on the front foot in the terms that people relate to them and see them | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
as ordinary people as there is the idea there is a disconnect between | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
them and us but to do so over such a sensitive subject... It must have | :09:42. | :09:46. | |
take an lot of courage. I was struck by the story in terms of an analogy, | :09:47. | :09:57. | |
where Hillary Clinton had to maintain her decorum afterward ho a | :09:58. | :10:03. | |
fee may politicians bearing her soul in the most visceral way Andres | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
fating with many people hearing it. So maybe we are entering a new | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
confessional age. Especially with women to show their real side and to | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
be more honest. It remains to be seen that Theresa May, who has | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
fashioned herself as a tough, Thatcher like Charles thatch -- | :10:25. | :10:40. | |
character, if she will show herself. It is hard for a female politicians | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
to win in this situation. Let's move on to the front page of | :10:47. | :10:54. | |
the Daily Mirror, looking again at George Osborne, the former | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
Cheshiring, and his earning power now he has left government. | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
It is a good story. George Osborne was born with a silver spoon in his | :11:05. | :11:11. | |
mouth. He comes from a family of magnates, he can race money quickly. | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
He was a young Chancellor that made a big impact but not for all the | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
right reasons in many people's eyes. But it is interesting, talking about | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
getting close to the public, George Osborne is part of the metropolitan | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
elite, so called out of touch with ordinary Britons and the Mirror is | :11:33. | :11:35. | |
highlighting the fact that his is continuing in the same direction. | :11:36. | :11:40. | |
He has been given permission to do this, he is still an MP but he is | :11:41. | :11:47. | |
entitled to? There is a debate about life after politics, Cameron, Blair, | :11:48. | :11:54. | |
he has been discredited for his involvement in the private sector. | :11:55. | :11:57. | |
Hillary Clinton for giving speeches to eat, and here with George | :11:58. | :12:02. | |
Osborne, it begs the question, are politicians not allowed to make a | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
living after they leaf office? And the front page of the Telegraph: | :12:09. | :12:16. | |
Mick Jagger, father at 73. What do we think of that, gentlemen? I think | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
it is great. How can you not be happy for a man who has had a child | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
in his 70s. Mick everyone. | :12:25. | :12:38. | |
Does it?! Thank you very much. | :12:39. | :12:59. |
