:00:00. > :00:00.That's all of the sport, now on BBC News, Martine Croxall with The
:00:00. > :00:14.Papers. Hello and welcome to our look ahead
:00:15. > :00:21.to what the the papers will be With me are Business Journalist
:00:22. > :00:39.Josie Cox and journalist It's nice to know what 9:30am looks
:00:40. > :00:41.like! The front pages, beginning with...
:00:42. > :00:43.The Observer focuses on the Unite leadership battle -
:00:44. > :00:45.featuring an interview with the man challenging Len Mcluskey
:00:46. > :00:49.The Mail on Sunday leads with what it describes as the great
:00:50. > :00:51.foreign aid freeze - saying the government has agreed
:00:52. > :00:54.to halt new contracts after an investigation by the paper.
:00:55. > :00:57.The Sunday Times says the head of the rail union behind this week's
:00:58. > :00:59.industrial action has vowed to topple the Conservative
:01:00. > :01:02.The Sunday Telegraph also focusses on the unions -
:01:03. > :01:04.claiming Theresa May is facing pressure to curb
:01:05. > :01:10.And the Express says the High Street is heading for a record
:01:11. > :01:12.breaking Christmas - fuelled by Brexit.
:01:13. > :01:24.Let's begin with the Sunday Times. And, this idea of a loyalty oath for
:01:25. > :01:26.public office holders. It has been suggested by the Communities
:01:27. > :01:30.Secretary Sajid Javid, but following on from this report that Daimler
:01:31. > :01:41.Weise Casey has published into looking into how well integrated we
:01:42. > :01:44.are -- Dame Louise Casey. Yes, it is very far reaching. It applies to
:01:45. > :01:53.civil servants and even local council workers. I wonder how
:01:54. > :01:56.effective this would be. You can get people to swear an oath to anything
:01:57. > :02:00.but whether they fundamentally change their beliefs and values as a
:02:01. > :02:04.result is questionable. What kind of sanction would there have two B for
:02:05. > :02:11.it to be meaningful? We can say anything. If I want a job, I will
:02:12. > :02:17.say it. Do I feel it or believe it? There is a problem, there is a
:02:18. > :02:20.problem of integration. You know, within SummerSlam communities and
:02:21. > :02:27.frankly quite a lot of white people who do not want to integrate --
:02:28. > :02:31.within some Muslim communities. Just saying that you cannot get a job
:02:32. > :02:37.unless you come up with this oath? That will only end up in resentment,
:02:38. > :02:41.I think. And it is not just public office, it is everybody in society
:02:42. > :02:46.who have an investment or share in the same ideas. How do you bring it
:02:47. > :02:52.about? Exactly, it would apply to all migrants. Currently, it is just
:02:53. > :02:56.people seeking British citizenship. It is just so... Are we going to ask
:02:57. > :03:03.those people who happen to be indigenous Britons, right? To
:03:04. > :03:09.express tolerance when a lot of them are deeply intolerant of all
:03:10. > :03:13.backgrounds. This could be against discrimination laws and so on. What
:03:14. > :03:18.I think is that there was a problem and there has to be a more
:03:19. > :03:23.imaginative way of dealing with it. How? Louise Casey has certainly got
:03:24. > :03:28.the debate started... Don't get me started on her! Believe me, Yasmin,
:03:29. > :03:34.I won't! We have 13 minutes! There are a lot of things that we could
:03:35. > :03:38.actually... We have all kinds of activities. In Denmark there are
:03:39. > :03:43.fantastically local authority schemes to bring people together.
:03:44. > :03:49.Informally, casually, to be friends. We could do that. Moving on, the
:03:50. > :03:53.Telegraph. A fuse union stories this morning. It is nice to feel a proper
:03:54. > :04:01.newspaper and not just the front pages! Pressure on May.
:04:02. > :04:07.Prime Minister faces backlash over failure to impose emergency laws to
:04:08. > :04:13.curb crippling strikes. Southern Rail this week, it means a
:04:14. > :04:17.lot of difficulty for people trying to get about. What are the pressures
:04:18. > :04:24.that she is under? This has been going on for quite a long time.
:04:25. > :04:30.Conservative governments and successive ones have tried to curb
:04:31. > :04:35.the power of the unions. Now, some of these strikes are perfectly
:04:36. > :04:38.legal, what will we do? Change the law again... I am quite interested
:04:39. > :04:44.that Theresa May is refusing to curb the powers of the existing
:04:45. > :04:49.conditions under which strike... I would have thought she would have
:04:50. > :04:54.gone for it. They are quite crossed that she is not. But I think that
:04:55. > :04:59.she is right to not immediately step into this and make laws because of
:05:00. > :05:05.strikes. One of these suggestions is that critical industries would have
:05:06. > :05:09.to commit to maintaining a certain level of service even in the event
:05:10. > :05:12.of a strike, which I think would still slow people down if they are
:05:13. > :05:16.trying to move around on the railways for example but would not
:05:17. > :05:20.be quite the impact that they are facing this week? And I wonder
:05:21. > :05:25.whether it is the impact that is needed in order to get the point
:05:26. > :05:29.across, and whether keeping crucial services or at least half of them
:05:30. > :05:33.running would in fact defy the point of the strike will together. And the
:05:34. > :05:38.same with The Daily Telegraph, a picture of a mother and son but not
:05:39. > :05:43.any of them... The Queen and Prince trials, in a photograph taken by
:05:44. > :05:49.Nick Knight, a fashion photographer, prior to the final night of the
:05:50. > :05:54.Queen's 90th birthday celebrations. Yasmin, what do you think? She looks
:05:55. > :06:01.really good. I like her frock. At her age she looks really good. And
:06:02. > :06:06.so does trials! -- Charles. He is looking very fondly at his mum. She
:06:07. > :06:20.never greens a lot. I would love to know what is going on in her mind.
:06:21. > :06:25.-- grins a lot. This headline... This is Len McCluskey, the head of
:06:26. > :06:34.the Unite union facing a challenge from someone else. They are
:06:35. > :06:39.accusing, Jeremy Corbyn, he is accusing Len McCluskey are basically
:06:40. > :06:45.not doing his job as the head of the Unite union. I wonder whether this
:06:46. > :06:50.is not a proxy of what is happening in the broader Labour Party at the
:06:51. > :06:54.end of such a divisive year indeed for the whole Labour Party. Yes, but
:06:55. > :07:03.I think, I have never heard of this chap before. He does have a point.
:07:04. > :07:11.Len... I can never say his surname properly... McCluskey. He is more
:07:12. > :07:16.politicised than a couple of union leaders have been in the past but
:07:17. > :07:20.there are limits, after which he fails himself and the Labour Party.
:07:21. > :07:29.The Labour Party has always suffered from this thing. At the hands of the
:07:30. > :07:32.union. -- unions. I think that there is a point here? Not all unions are
:07:33. > :07:38.politically affiliated of course, but if you are, you are inevitably
:07:39. > :07:42.going to be quite politicised and you? Yes, but you can do it subtly.
:07:43. > :07:51.This guy committee just talks all the time about politics within the
:07:52. > :07:55.Labour Party. He is a trade unionist. You can be more subtle,
:07:56. > :08:01.businesses who back the Tory party do not do this upfront all the time.
:08:02. > :08:05.It is a lesson? And they accused of behaving in a less than transparent
:08:06. > :08:09.way? Yes. But I think that they could learn a little bit from the
:08:10. > :08:16.other sector. Let's stay with the Observer. Look at this story at the
:08:17. > :08:22.bottom. TUC and businesses urge Made to act now on the rights of migrants
:08:23. > :08:27.in Britain. -- Theresa May to act now. The rights of EU migrants
:08:28. > :08:33.should be guaranteed, they say, so that they can remain in the UK after
:08:34. > :08:39.Ore, because a lot of industries rely on those workers, don't they?
:08:40. > :08:44.-- in the UK after Brexit. It is some thing that Theresa May has
:08:45. > :08:48.addressed only last week. She said that she wanted answers to these
:08:49. > :08:52.questions. But, she's also said that she is basically not going to do
:08:53. > :08:56.anything until the talks are triggered in March. Three months is
:08:57. > :09:01.a long time and a lot of people will be affected by this. And over 1
:09:02. > :09:08.million British people are also living in Britain. 1.3 million, I
:09:09. > :09:11.think. I think that it is unfair and wrong to keep people in... How many
:09:12. > :09:20.months as it been already since Brexit? Some of these issues are, in
:09:21. > :09:23.a way, protected by law. Article eight of the European human rights
:09:24. > :09:28.Convention says that you have a right to a family life, and... These
:09:29. > :09:32.are often bypassed. But we would still be part of the convention
:09:33. > :09:37.unless they decide otherwise. You get the right to permanent
:09:38. > :09:43.residents. Isn't there some worry unnecessarily? A lot of it is about
:09:44. > :09:49.rhetoric as well. And signalling, a willingness to show that
:09:50. > :09:53.collaboration with EU states that had been particularly hostile in the
:09:54. > :09:56.aftermath of the Brexit vote. A lot of my Polish friends are very
:09:57. > :10:02.anxious and feel that any minute now... They feel it, emotionally
:10:03. > :10:06.they feel insecure at the moment. The Polish Prime Minister, when she
:10:07. > :10:10.came over, she was sounding rather different to a lot of EU leaders.
:10:11. > :10:16.Probably in recognition of the fact that there needs to be some
:10:17. > :10:23.reciprocity. It's an anxious time if you are an EU migrant. And the
:10:24. > :10:27.attitudes now developing in our country towards them. So... They do
:10:28. > :10:33.not feel that welcome or integrated, I think, quite a lot of them now.
:10:34. > :10:36.The Mail on Sunday, the great foreign aid freeze, a stunning
:10:37. > :10:39.victory says the newspaper, for their campaign.
:10:40. > :10:43.As Britain suspends new aid contracts after we expose fat cat
:10:44. > :10:54.dirty tricks. What are those dirty tricks? We both have mixed feelings
:10:55. > :11:00.about this. The big story here, Ian Birrell is a very good journalist,
:11:01. > :11:05.about how many executives, if you like, the CEOs of big charities, the
:11:06. > :11:09.bonuses that they earn, it is a fair enough story but I think that there
:11:10. > :11:14.is something else also happening here which makes me uncomfortable.
:11:15. > :11:18.It's kind of an attack on aid itself. But isn't it the right kind
:11:19. > :11:23.of age to the right kinds of places? Making sure money gets to where it
:11:24. > :11:27.is meant to be, rather than going in other directions? I would say so and
:11:28. > :11:31.it is such a big industry it is difficult to police as a whole.
:11:32. > :11:44.Transparency is so paramount. I think Ian has a good point here. The
:11:45. > :11:48.wording is very strong. He's talking about a dramatic halt to new
:11:49. > :11:51.contracts. It sells like a review going into something that has to be
:11:52. > :11:57.reviewed, but it would be interesting to see the outcome. We
:11:58. > :12:02.face cuts here on so many fronts. The best way, isn't it? To get
:12:03. > :12:08.people to support the idea of us giving foreign aid. Showing that it
:12:09. > :12:12.is properly having an effect? It is, but what is awful is that some of
:12:13. > :12:17.The Papers in the last few months have said, let's stop and look after
:12:18. > :12:20.our own. If you do not want refugees to come here, you better keep up
:12:21. > :12:26.with some good aid projects, actually. Otherwise, you have to
:12:27. > :12:33.work at the source or people will do what they've been doing and die and
:12:34. > :12:41.coming to Europe. You cannot have it both ways, really. Let's go back to
:12:42. > :12:50.the Sunday Times. Strictly winner, hip hip, Ore, our BBC Sports
:12:51. > :12:54.presenter... He is lifting up his partner in her spectacular yellow
:12:55. > :12:59.gown, it is not just a dress. She was so surprised when they won, her
:13:00. > :13:02.face was extraordinary! Neither of us have been committed to strictly
:13:03. > :13:10.watches this year... Maybe we should have been, it looked fantastic this
:13:11. > :13:15.year. I am so impressed at how quickly the contestants pick up
:13:16. > :13:20.those steps. Ore had never danced before. Some competitors have
:13:21. > :13:25.dancing their background. Sport is his thing, obviously. No, I think
:13:26. > :13:34.that the way that they do it... Ed Balls for God sake! He did really
:13:35. > :13:38.well. It would have thought? He certainly committed, didn't he? His
:13:39. > :13:51.gangland style, I watched it half a dozen times... It is so joyful! --
:13:52. > :13:56.here's Gangnam Style. And we've just spoken to the parents
:13:57. > :14:03.of JoAnn and Kevin Clifton... And those dresses! The wardrobe
:14:04. > :14:09.department at the BBC News Channel is not quite as well at providing
:14:10. > :14:18.the sequence! She says, dressed in black for this morning... --
:14:19. > :14:22.sequins. That's all for The Papers this morning.
:14:23. > :14:25.Thank you to both of you. A reminder that we look at my's front pages
:14:26. > :14:33.every evening at 10:40pm during the week. -- we look at tomorrow's front
:14:34. > :14:45.pages. A man is adrift
:14:46. > :14:49.after a storm at sea.
