:00:19. > :00:25.Welcomes our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow
:00:26. > :00:30.morning. -- welcomes our look ahead. I have the business editor of the
:00:31. > :00:33.Independent here as well as Caroline Wheeler, political editor of the
:00:34. > :00:38.Sunday express. We will look to the papers in a moment, but first, let's
:00:39. > :00:42.have a look at the front pages. The Daily Telegraph reporting a warning
:00:43. > :00:44.from Public Health England that children are eating half their
:00:45. > :00:52.recommended daily allowance before they even leave for school. -- daily
:00:53. > :00:57.allowance of sugar. The Istanbul terror attack is the lead on the
:00:58. > :01:01.Independent. IS has declared war on Turkey, it says. It is the same lead
:01:02. > :01:04.for its sister paper which carries a striking image of the funeral of one
:01:05. > :01:10.of the victims. Meanwhile, the Times leads with the rail price hike,
:01:11. > :01:15.saying that rail fares are six times higher than those in Europe. One
:01:16. > :01:19.study says commuters now pay 27p for every minute they are on a train. A
:01:20. > :01:26.similar front page for the Metro, which reports claims that thousands
:01:27. > :01:28.of commuters will be spending 14% of their incomes on train fares. A
:01:29. > :01:36.political lead for the Daily Mirror, it reports that an aid for Nigel
:01:37. > :01:46.Farage could face time in jail after a plan to foil drug smugglers in the
:01:47. > :01:50.US. Pakistanis have been queueing at cashpoints to use cars loaded with
:01:51. > :01:54.British taxpayers money, according to the Daily Mail. The Daily Express
:01:55. > :01:58.leads with health care, it says that staying in shape can stave off
:01:59. > :02:03.dementia. Those are the front pages. Let's have a slightly more in-depth
:02:04. > :02:08.look with Caroline and Ben. We will kick off with the Daily Telegraph
:02:09. > :02:12.and a health story. A warning from Public Health England to make
:02:13. > :02:16.households and families across the land feel incredibly bad about what
:02:17. > :02:22.they are giving their children at breakfast. An astonishing statistic.
:02:23. > :02:29.The average child is eating the equivalent of three cubes of sugar
:02:30. > :02:33.every day at breakfast. Which will be a frightening prospect for a lot
:02:34. > :02:38.of families. We are all parents, are you shocked by that figure? When you
:02:39. > :02:41.read it on paper you think, well, obviously my children are not having
:02:42. > :02:46.that, and obviously we are virtuous and give our children the right...
:02:47. > :02:49.They are not average children. Obviously. But when you think about
:02:50. > :02:53.what you do feed your children, we were trying to work out the best
:02:54. > :02:57.breakfast for a child, and the best we could come up with his porridge.
:02:58. > :03:02.But in porridge they want raisins, honey, treacle, whatever comes with
:03:03. > :03:08.it. Then you have cereals, and lots of them, even the ones you think are
:03:09. > :03:13.good, you know, not like Coco Pops, are full of sugar. But what strikes
:03:14. > :03:18.me about this more than anything else is it is the drinks. What do
:03:19. > :03:22.you give your child to drink at breakfast? We would quite often give
:03:23. > :03:25.them a glass of orange juice. What they are saying here is that even
:03:26. > :03:29.the guidelines around that have changed and that we should only be
:03:30. > :03:35.giving our child one portion of a fruit drink per day will stop we
:03:36. > :03:41.might give that at breakfast. -- per day. They might have one at lunch,
:03:42. > :03:45.after-school club, etc. So you can see how easily the amount of sugar a
:03:46. > :03:50.child intakes add up throughout the course of the day. And children are
:03:51. > :03:54.becoming far more educated, possibly more than their parents, at school.
:03:55. > :03:57.My daughter is coming home at the age of eight and telling me fruit
:03:58. > :04:02.juice has too much sugar, I shouldn't be drinking fruit juice. I
:04:03. > :04:07.tell her to drink it. But I think children are becoming aware of what
:04:08. > :04:10.they are eating. Maybe that is a good thing. As strange as it is to
:04:11. > :04:14.be lectured on things like that from our children, it might be a good
:04:15. > :04:19.thing. Breakfast is a difficult time of day. You are tired, you want your
:04:20. > :04:23.children to go, eat, set themselves up for the day. You've got to rush
:04:24. > :04:25.to work, you have lots of pressure on you. You are probably not
:04:26. > :04:33.thinking as much as you are necessarily at other meals and at
:04:34. > :04:37.the weekend about what is in food. We should be focusing more on what
:04:38. > :04:41.is in these things. Do you agree with Jamie Oliver and his sugar tax?
:04:42. > :04:49.From an economic perspective it's a good thing. You can force the
:04:50. > :04:53.consumer to realise the content is and the social ramifications of this
:04:54. > :04:57.stuff by changing the price. The problem with it is it is a false
:04:58. > :05:02.economy to a certain extent because if impact on those families that are
:05:03. > :05:08.least able to afford it. There are issues around price. But when it
:05:09. > :05:12.comes down to, what has been happening over the last decade, or
:05:13. > :05:15.so, we are seeing an increase in the number of primary school children
:05:16. > :05:22.who are classed as obese when they start. I find that alarming. At the
:05:23. > :05:27.same time, you've got to change habits, you've got to change
:05:28. > :05:29.behaviour. I was talking to a food nutritionist who was talking about,
:05:30. > :05:33.well, you've got to start with the parents rather than the children,
:05:34. > :05:38.because only when we start changing our behaviour toward our children,
:05:39. > :05:41.not rewarding, for example, with sweets, and saying, if you are good
:05:42. > :05:45.money will buy you chocolate. Actually saying, if you are a good
:05:46. > :05:51.book, we will go and play football. Or another leisure activity. I am in
:05:52. > :05:56.favour of what Jamie had to say in all of this. I'm finding it harder
:05:57. > :05:59.and harder to differentiate between puppy fat and children that are
:06:00. > :06:09.unnecessarily overweight. Habits have changed so much. The Times,
:06:10. > :06:12.those rail fares, goodness, it is going to hurt, isn't it? We all
:06:13. > :06:19.travel by train at some point in the year. You, as well? Absolutely. And
:06:20. > :06:26.I am a Southern rail traveller. I am feeling more of the pain. It is
:06:27. > :06:29.another bad New Year story. At the start of every year it is the time
:06:30. > :06:34.when the new rail fares kick in and they go up by a certain level above
:06:35. > :06:37.inflation every year. And a lot of people will be feeling the pinch
:06:38. > :06:42.when they come to renew their season tickets in the next few days and go
:06:43. > :06:46.back to work. The southern rail story skews our perceptions. Because
:06:47. > :06:50.it is so bad that it is so consistently on the news. The
:06:51. > :06:55.overall rail service is not as bad as Southern rail. It is worth
:06:56. > :07:02.pointing that out. But the cost is high, relative to Europe. Is it
:07:03. > :07:08.right to compare it with Europe? No. When I go and top up to go to work
:07:09. > :07:11.tomorrow, I would like to see that that it has -- I would not like to
:07:12. > :07:20.see that the price has gone up. Nobody will be pleased. But we are
:07:21. > :07:29.weighing six times higher than in Europe. -- but we are paying. Yes,
:07:30. > :07:31.they don't see the rise is as much, but their infrastructure is
:07:32. > :07:37.nationalised and they pay much higher taxes. -- rises. It is a
:07:38. > :07:44.payoff over whether we are paying it in terms of their price hikes, or
:07:45. > :07:47.taxation. But we have seen a period of time where we haven't seen any
:07:48. > :07:52.investment in our rail infrastructure. To be fair, whether
:07:53. > :07:55.you agree with HS2 and the ramifications of Crossrail, of some
:07:56. > :07:58.of the other big infrastructure projects this government are driving
:07:59. > :08:04.forward, actually, in terms of the people using our rail services, you
:08:05. > :08:09.know, the numbers are going up. It is higher than ever. It has to be a
:08:10. > :08:12.positive thing that we are getting people onto rail and off the roads
:08:13. > :08:17.from an environmental perspective. We will all be reading this, we will
:08:18. > :08:22.slump into our sugary breakfast tomorrow morning in dismay,
:08:23. > :08:26.ultimately the point is that, you know, they pay in a different way to
:08:27. > :08:31.how we pay, but we all pay. We will stay with the times. The story at
:08:32. > :08:38.the top, this little spat that has developed through today, a bit of
:08:39. > :08:43.tit-for-tat. Do you agree with what men McCluskey has said? It's
:08:44. > :08:45.interesting because he has always been the union leader who has always
:08:46. > :08:59.stood up to Jeremy Corbyn. -- Len. A very different tone in these
:09:00. > :09:02.comments. He is saying, if he won't be turned around by the time of the
:09:03. > :09:06.next election, they are not egomaniacs, they will probably step
:09:07. > :09:10.down. I'm sure Caroline will talk about this. There is a bit of union
:09:11. > :09:16.politics going on. McCloskey is in a battle to be re-elected to Unite, a
:09:17. > :09:19.very important union, but perhaps he is thinking more about that than
:09:20. > :09:21.have this comes across, but this is not great headlines for Jeremy
:09:22. > :09:32.Corbyn. It is gameplaying. Len Did Corbyn. It is gameplaying. Len Did
:09:33. > :09:36.not have to stand down at the time that he has done. He chose to do
:09:37. > :09:42.this for political reasons. He said it would help the union by having
:09:43. > :09:47.simultaneous elections rather than later run. But he has now found
:09:48. > :09:50.himself in a stand-off with his deputy, who is much more of a
:09:51. > :09:58.moderate. So, actually, when you think about the dynamics of this,
:09:59. > :10:01.you know, McCluskey seem to be in the pockets of Jeremy Corbyn, and
:10:02. > :10:05.vice versa in this context, and actually he will now be challenged
:10:06. > :10:09.by a moderate, his language around Jeremy Corbyn, it has to change a
:10:10. > :10:12.little bit. Because ultimately, I mean, what are the unions in a
:10:13. > :10:16.relationship with Labour if Labour isn't going to be in power again, or
:10:17. > :10:22.certainly not for the foreseeable? When you look at the polling
:10:23. > :10:27.recently... 24%. And that also shows that that is the lowest support for
:10:28. > :10:34.Labour since July 1983, which was Michael foot. And that was just
:10:35. > :10:39.months before he wrote his longest ever suicide note in history. --
:10:40. > :10:45.Michael Foot. Everybody thought that Labour would go onto the back burner
:10:46. > :10:50.is for a while. But after this, it says that Labour could have as few
:10:51. > :10:55.as seat after the next election. And he has been given two years. OK,
:10:56. > :11:06.let's turn to the FT. I was trying to get my head around this one. What
:11:07. > :11:12.are they trying to tell us? Airbnb are bringing in a 90 day limit. You
:11:13. > :11:17.cannot let your property for more than three months in a year. Some
:11:18. > :11:24.number crunching has been done. They say that because of the restriction
:11:25. > :11:26.the company will miss out on ?400 million of revenue. It is an
:11:27. > :11:31.interesting story about his burgeoning sector of the sharing
:11:32. > :11:35.economy, and how regulations are going to put it back in its box. You
:11:36. > :11:39.can say it is a good or bad thing, but I think there is a strong case,
:11:40. > :11:43.reading the detail, that it is an unfair playing field. Because they
:11:44. > :11:47.have advantages in terms of tax that hotels do not have. If you are going
:11:48. > :11:52.to be a hotel by any other means it does make sense to have them put on
:11:53. > :11:56.a level playing field. Especially when it points out that such a large
:11:57. > :11:59.number of those people offering this service, they are not just people
:12:00. > :12:04.living next door to you, offering their spare bedroom, lots of them
:12:05. > :12:08.are professional listings. They are hotels in any other name that are
:12:09. > :12:15.benefiting from it. The other thing to remember about this, the reason
:12:16. > :12:22.people go to Airbnb, it is competitively priced. We could see
:12:23. > :12:24.indications post Brexit and the benefit the economy is seen from
:12:25. > :12:32.that with people wanting to come into our cities. I will quite often
:12:33. > :12:38.use Airbnb over a hotel chain because we are a family of five. And
:12:39. > :12:42.if we go and stay at a hotel it is two rooms that we need, and it is
:12:43. > :12:47.astronomical, and finding two connecting rooms can be difficult.
:12:48. > :12:51.Renting out a three-bedroom property in a city is very welcome to us.
:12:52. > :12:58.Barack pros and cons for both, the problem and the solution here. Is
:12:59. > :13:03.this a new tax? Has it always been in place? It has always been in
:13:04. > :13:08.place but it hasn't been enforced. Airbnb Have said they will start
:13:09. > :13:15.enforcing that from this year. It has been mentioned in the last
:13:16. > :13:18.financial statement. I think they are trying to get ahead of the
:13:19. > :13:23.politicians, which is possibly a sensible move. What is your New Year
:13:24. > :13:27.'s resolution regarding your health? The Daily Express are giving you a
:13:28. > :13:32.chance here, not only to get yourself it, but also potentially
:13:33. > :13:37.stave off a risk of dementia, developing dementia. I think it is a
:13:38. > :13:43.very good bit of advice. My personal resolution is not to read so many
:13:44. > :13:47.diet plans, keep fit schemes, because they are dominating the
:13:48. > :13:50.newspapers. I am going to have a look at breakfast cereals as soon as
:13:51. > :13:55.I get home and think about those again. It is the Daily Express, but
:13:56. > :13:59.would that headline make you think there is another reason for me to
:14:00. > :14:02.get fit? Thing is, most of these things, keep fit, don't get
:14:03. > :14:06.diabetes, don't get dementia, they are things that he would initially
:14:07. > :14:11.think, you know, generally looking after yourself, whether it is
:14:12. > :14:15.dementia, obesity, you know, diabetes, any of those things, is a
:14:16. > :14:18.good thing. Most people will be thinking that. But it is the
:14:19. > :14:22.beginning of the year. I think we have all admitted that we are
:14:23. > :14:28.thinking, you know, thinking ourselves thin, as we reach for the
:14:29. > :14:32.biscuit tin. The paper links obesity and type two diabetes to a greater
:14:33. > :14:39.risk of developing dementia. I think all getting into it. Anyway,
:14:40. > :14:43.Caroline and Ben, we will leave it there, but we will be back in just
:14:44. > :14:48.under an hour's time. Thank you. That is it for this hour. All of the
:14:49. > :14:53.front pages are online, on the BBC News website, where you can read a
:14:54. > :15:02.detailed review of the Papers. It is all there for you. Each night's
:15:03. > :15:06.edition of the Papers posted onto the page shortly after we have
:15:07. > :15:13.finished. Thank you again to Ben and Caroline. We will be back for
:15:14. > :15:17.another look at the papers later.
