:00:14. > :00:17.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:18. > :00:26.With me are Political Editor of the Sunday Mirror

:00:27. > :00:33.and political commentator Jo Phillips.

:00:34. > :00:36.we will be going through the newspapers in a moment, but first,

:00:37. > :00:40.the front pages: the Observer says cancer patients

:00:41. > :00:43.are feeling the brunt of the NHS crisis with operations

:00:44. > :00:45.being cancelled on a regular basis. The Mail on Sunday suggests cutting

:00:46. > :00:48.the foreign aid budget to fund It claims more than three quarters

:00:49. > :00:52.of voters support the idea. Theresa May's Brexit strategy

:00:53. > :00:54.is the Sunday Telegraph's focus. It says the PM is prepared to lead

:00:55. > :01:00.Britain out of the single market. The "Brexit Battle Plan" is how

:01:01. > :01:03.the Sunday Express put it, saying May is going to get

:01:04. > :01:07.tough with Brussels. And the Sunday Times carries

:01:08. > :01:10.an image of Prince William, who it says will be

:01:11. > :01:12.leaving his position as an air-ambulance

:01:13. > :01:30.helicopter pilot very good evening to the both of

:01:31. > :01:36.you, let us begin, starting with the Telegraph. "Brexit". All the way. We

:01:37. > :01:40.seem to have new "Brexit", we have had soft and hard but now the

:01:41. > :01:49.Telegraph is talking about a clean "Brexit". What is the difference?

:01:50. > :01:53.Good question, it looks very hard to me, according to the Telegraph, but

:01:54. > :01:58.when Theresa May makes her big speech on Tuesday where she is meant

:01:59. > :02:02.to outline her position at last, what she will say is that we cannot

:02:03. > :02:05.stay in the single market necessarily, that we will not stay

:02:06. > :02:10.in the customs union, which means the free movement of goods, the

:02:11. > :02:15.reason being, that would interfere with our chances of doing trade

:02:16. > :02:21.deals elsewhere in the world. Obviously single market is a problem

:02:22. > :02:25.because she has a firm line on immigration, freedom of movement is,

:02:26. > :02:30.she cannot compromise on that. Seems to access that those two things,

:02:31. > :02:36.that side of the trade deal will be done. In a sense, you feel she was

:02:37. > :02:40.always going to get here because when you think about it, she did not

:02:41. > :02:46.have much to negotiate with. This idea of keeping her negotiating hand

:02:47. > :02:52.quiet, did not make sense. The paper describes it as going for the full

:02:53. > :02:58.works. It is going to be some reassurance to the hardliners, and

:02:59. > :03:03.in fact a lot of this material has come from an article written by

:03:04. > :03:07.David Davis, Secretary of State for "Brexit", and so it is probably an

:03:08. > :03:12.indication that he and his colleague Liam Fox are weaned the debate, and

:03:13. > :03:18.I think the growing... She has been there six months, what is going to

:03:19. > :03:22.happen, it is hitting home, that she will come out with something. What

:03:23. > :03:26.will happen to the economy on Tuesday when she makes this... This

:03:27. > :03:31.is the briefing from Downing Street, and as we say, an article by David

:03:32. > :03:35.Davis, but the reality, when she delivers, as Nigel and I both know,

:03:36. > :03:39.you can be given a draft of a speech and it is different when it is

:03:40. > :03:43.delivered. What will it do to the economy and what did it mean for the

:03:44. > :03:47.people who are not so keen, who want for us to still be part of the

:03:48. > :03:53.single market, because this is... There is no other way to say it,

:03:54. > :03:57.this is hard. Delivering on what she promised the people. That is how the

:03:58. > :04:04.newspapers are saying it, that is how they voted, she is going to try.

:04:05. > :04:07.People worried about single market and Customs union, when they voted

:04:08. > :04:13.for "Brexit" they expected a hard Brexit. Turning to the Observer, we

:04:14. > :04:17.have two stories, but we start with, well we are carrying on with

:04:18. > :04:21."Brexit" but there is a poll on the Conservatives "Brexit" steel, voters

:04:22. > :04:30.backing the Tories to deliver the best "Brexit" by 3-1. 3/1 against

:04:31. > :04:33.Labour, things are not that impressive, 30% of people said they

:04:34. > :04:40.most trusted the Conservatives to deliver a successful Brexit compared

:04:41. > :04:43.with just 13% for Labour. I'm surprised it is not higher about the

:04:44. > :04:47.fact that they thought the Tories would do a better job because all

:04:48. > :04:51.the polls, no matter what you ask them, if you ask them who is more

:04:52. > :04:59.competent, Theresa May always comes out top. Jeremy Corbyn is not doing

:05:00. > :05:02.well in polls, anyway. With all the confusion we have seen from the

:05:03. > :05:07.Labour Party, we can understand why they would not really want him

:05:08. > :05:12.handling the negotiations. There was a poll earlier, this was a comrade

:05:13. > :05:19.'s poll, which also picked out that people trusted the Conservatives to

:05:20. > :05:28.handle the NHS. Over Jeremy Corbyn and labour. -- ComRes poll. Jeremy

:05:29. > :05:33.Corbyn is the architects of his own confusion, comes out with something

:05:34. > :05:37.in the morning, changes it by lunchtime, by tea-time, it has gone

:05:38. > :05:40.around the houses. This is a man, we don't even know what he stands for,

:05:41. > :05:46.we do not know what the policies are, we are in very difficult times,

:05:47. > :05:50.domestic, at home, with the health service, and on the foreign state.

:05:51. > :05:55.It is not surprisingly the Conservatives are doing well. Very

:05:56. > :06:01.quickly, the health service, this is the lead story all day... And it is

:06:02. > :06:10.yet another story about the emotional side of this, health

:06:11. > :06:14.service in crisis, cancer Ops cancelled, what we do not have is

:06:15. > :06:18.any detail about the number of operations being cancelled all the

:06:19. > :06:23.reason why stop the inference is that it is because of a shortage of

:06:24. > :06:28.beds. Very emotive, Cancer. The whole health service is emotive,

:06:29. > :06:30.that is part of the problem, as we have seen in the spat between the

:06:31. > :06:36.government and the GPs, what somebody needs to do is take a hard

:06:37. > :06:40.cold look at it and do some number crunching and go to an Accident and

:06:41. > :06:45.Emergency and go around and find out why are you here, did you come

:06:46. > :06:48.because you could not get a GP 's appointment, did you come here

:06:49. > :06:52.because you are not registered, did you know you could go to the

:06:53. > :06:55.pharmacist? Did you come here because you think even though there

:06:56. > :06:59.is nothing that can be done for the cold, you think that you will jump

:07:00. > :07:04.the queue? Until you get that sort of information, you cannot target

:07:05. > :07:09.the messages to say to those people, stay away, AMD is not the place to

:07:10. > :07:28.be. Very basic questionnaire, is it being carried out? -- A This is a

:07:29. > :07:33.very Daily Mail front page. Any thing to have a go at foreign aid,

:07:34. > :07:36.they have asked a question, would you prefer your 13 billion crowns

:07:37. > :07:40.which goes abroad to stay at home and find the NHS and surprise

:07:41. > :07:43.surprise, when you ask a question like that, eight out of ten voters

:07:44. > :07:51.say, that is what they would like to happen. Is part of the Daily Mail

:07:52. > :07:59.agenda that they had been running a campaign against overseas aid, I

:08:00. > :08:02.think it is a bit sad, it may well be that we need to make sure that

:08:03. > :08:06.foreign aid is going to the right places but the idea that we take it

:08:07. > :08:09.away from foreign aid and stick it into the health service is not

:08:10. > :08:14.tenable. The health service needs more money, bigger budget, you might

:08:15. > :08:18.decide you want to drop any play submarine to do that. There is a

:08:19. > :08:23.host of ways to do that. Moving on, very quickly, to the Sunday Times,

:08:24. > :08:32.because we need to cover Mr trump... January 20... He would like a

:08:33. > :08:38.summit... Similar to Reagan. Same place, Reykjavik, in Iceland, the...

:08:39. > :08:43.His aides, nears diplomats and his team are planning to have this to

:08:44. > :08:50.repeat what Ronald Reagan did with Mikhail Goebel chuff, 40 years ago,

:08:51. > :08:57.and have a meeting with blood and feuding, outside, America and

:08:58. > :09:01.Russia. -- Mikhail Gorbachev. It is a thawing of the relationship, but

:09:02. > :09:06.there are concerns among diplomats that it would further isolate

:09:07. > :09:11.Britain if America gets closer to Russia, and America is seen to

:09:12. > :09:16.basically sanction what blood amid Putin has done in the Ukraine and

:09:17. > :09:21.the Crimea. What do you think are the benefits of being a friend of

:09:22. > :09:28.Vladimir Putin? -- sanction what Vladimir Putin has done in the

:09:29. > :09:33.Ukraine. LAUGHTER We do not phone each other that

:09:34. > :09:36.often(!) the idea of Trump getting along with Vladimir Putin cannot be

:09:37. > :09:42.a bad thing, it depends what he gives away, Vladimir Putin is very

:09:43. > :09:46.shrewd, as we can see, it is quite clear that if Trump goes to a summit

:09:47. > :09:53.and is hoping for a nuclear deal, a wonderful nuclear deal, there has

:09:54. > :09:56.got to be won over Ukraine, Syria... It is what Vladimir Putin once at

:09:57. > :10:03.the end of it all which is the tricky bit. Is he likely to stick to

:10:04. > :10:09.it, like Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin is someone that you cannot

:10:10. > :10:16.second guess. He has played a blinder recently. Quite clear, what

:10:17. > :10:20.Donald Trump has said about Nato would be very convenient for

:10:21. > :10:23.Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin is probably smarter strategically than

:10:24. > :10:27.Donald Trump. And probably has more to gain because what he really wants

:10:28. > :10:30.is US sanctions to be lifted, that was the whole thing with the dossier

:10:31. > :10:35.and everything that has been going on... He has been around playing

:10:36. > :10:40.politics longer than Donald Trump as, we will see what happens. Will

:10:41. > :10:47.stick with the Sunday Times, and Prince William. Handing in his

:10:48. > :10:53.notice. He is going to stop being a helicopter pilot, he will become a

:10:54. > :10:58.full-time royal. What does that include? Who knows, we will have to

:10:59. > :11:04.look in... The court circular! LAUGHTER

:11:05. > :11:07.Shaking people's hands, and awful lot of that. He has come under

:11:08. > :11:11.criticism recently over last couple of years for not really pulling his

:11:12. > :11:17.weight. The Queen is 90, still working hard, she has been laid low

:11:18. > :11:23.with a cold like so many people over the Christmas period. Princess and

:11:24. > :11:28.is in her 60s, William's father is in his 60s. It is about the Royals,

:11:29. > :11:34.the younger royals, taking it on, he will be king one day. It is king

:11:35. > :11:38.training. His brother is already out of the Army, full-time royal as

:11:39. > :11:43.well. Moved to London, take on the job. You have to feel for the young

:11:44. > :11:47.royals, they have tried military life, Harry was devastated when he

:11:48. > :11:59.had to come out. But they cannot have it all. Nigel, Jo, thank you

:12:00. > :12:04.very much. You will be back again. We will be back very soon! That is

:12:05. > :12:08.it for the newspapers for the moment, join us at 11:30pm. Coming

:12:09. > :12:10.up next, Reporters.
