:00:00. > :00:00.by Labour since it was created in 1950. Nine people have been rescued

:00:00. > :00:00.from an Italian hotel which was buried by an avalanche three days

:00:00. > :00:14.ago. Hello and welcome to our look ahead

:00:15. > :00:17.to what the papers will be With me are Tony Evans,

:00:18. > :00:21.Sport Columnist at The London Evening Standard and Anne Ashworth,

:00:22. > :00:34.Assistant Editor at The Times. Nice to have you both here. I know,

:00:35. > :00:39.Anne, you will treat our to your analysis of how well the pages will

:00:40. > :00:43.put together. The Sunday Express is leading with news of the upcoming

:00:44. > :00:47.meeting between Theresa May and Donald Trump. The protest against

:00:48. > :00:55.the new president make the front page of the Observer, the Daily Mail

:00:56. > :00:57.claims that the Prime Minister will use a meeting with Donald Trump to

:00:58. > :01:05.tell him to stop insulting women, the Sunday Telegraph says they will

:01:06. > :01:10.negotiate trade barriers and any position Nato, the Sunday Times

:01:11. > :01:14.claims that No 10 covered up a Trident missile fiasco which

:01:15. > :01:19.apparently veered off course in Florida and headed towards the USA.

:01:20. > :01:23.Thankfully it was not armed. Let's start with the Sunday Telegraph.

:01:24. > :01:31.Loads about Trump, would you believe. You have Trump's new Deal

:01:32. > :01:38.for Britain, President Trump's new team working on a deal. You have to

:01:39. > :01:42.remember that as soon as the president is inaugurated the

:01:43. > :01:46.administration kicks into gear. Without a doubt they are up and

:01:47. > :01:49.running already. In his speech yesterday he talked about America

:01:50. > :01:56.first is that this but an interesting spin on it. Trump with

:01:57. > :02:00.his new deal for Britain, Franklin D Roosevelt with his new deal brought

:02:01. > :02:06.America and of recession in the 1930s, at least it helped to, and I

:02:07. > :02:13.think it is a little bit overoptimistic to suggest that

:02:14. > :02:19.Theresa May will be invited to a state visit and obviously we will

:02:20. > :02:26.get all the benefits of the new Trump era. We did hear from Donald

:02:27. > :02:31.Trump that he disagreed with Barack Obama's assessment that if we left

:02:32. > :02:36.the EU we'd be at the back of the queue when it comes to a trade deal

:02:37. > :02:41.with the US. Donald Trump has disabused us that idea. At the

:02:42. > :02:45.moment Donald Trump is taking a totally contrary view on everything

:02:46. > :02:51.from the previous president and says he will cosy up to Britain. He says

:02:52. > :02:53.he will have a relationship with our Prime Minister akin to that of

:02:54. > :02:58.Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan and he is in great hopes and

:02:59. > :03:04.apparently plans are afoot for him to have a visit here, where he will

:03:05. > :03:08.not only meet the Queen but also the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and it

:03:09. > :03:12.will be a very fancy affair. All of this is being planned while he's

:03:13. > :03:18.been talking about himself in that strange third person we that he

:03:19. > :03:24.does, he doesn't say "Me", he says Donald Trump, rather like royalty.

:03:25. > :03:27.While millions of women have been protesting against his policies

:03:28. > :03:35.worldwide. It has been a truly bizarre day. And of course the Mail

:03:36. > :03:42.on Sunday says Theresa May will use the opportunity, when she meets him,

:03:43. > :03:50.to stop his sexist insults. Apparently he has been referring to

:03:51. > :03:55.her as "Mike Maggie". The other thing of course is that Maggie May

:03:56. > :04:03.was a famous liberal folk song about dirty Maggie May who was a lady of

:04:04. > :04:08.the night. Maybe he doesn't get that link. It is interesting that, what

:04:09. > :04:13.will be discussed beside her saying, please, president, mind what you

:04:14. > :04:20.Americans call your potty mouth and talk about women with proper

:04:21. > :04:26.dignity. They will get onto Nato and defence spending, and that we should

:04:27. > :04:30.spend 2% of GDP. One of the interesting things he said in that

:04:31. > :04:34.bizarre speech yesterday was this feeling that America is taking on

:04:35. > :04:38.all the military responsibilities of the world and he will ask all the

:04:39. > :04:44.other countries to do their bit. What did you find bizarre about

:04:45. > :04:50.that? That strange lack of hope. An inauguration speech, I feel, should

:04:51. > :04:55.have that hope, change, thing. But if he tells everyone, millions of

:04:56. > :05:00.people think that America has to make a lot of changes and then he

:05:01. > :05:05.can bring about that change that will reflect well... There were no

:05:06. > :05:09.specifics, it was all generalities, I will make America great again. He

:05:10. > :05:14.has an intellectual blandness that allows people to project what they

:05:15. > :05:18.believe onto him. It was possibly the worst inauguration speech I've

:05:19. > :05:23.heard, as long as I have been around. Is that really fair? To say

:05:24. > :05:29.that there was nothing in it? He talked about wanting to eradicate

:05:30. > :05:32.Islamist terrorism, I thought he repeated quite a lot of what he had

:05:33. > :05:36.said during the campaign. He talked about wanting to invest in

:05:37. > :05:42.infrastructure and bring jobs back to America and put America first.

:05:43. > :05:47.That is relatively clear, is it not? And spoke to those towns with the

:05:48. > :05:55.industry has gone, taking jobs with it, what did he say, the old

:05:56. > :05:59.factories look like tombstones, so he reached out to the constituency

:06:00. > :06:03.that put him in the job. He reached out to them in the campaign and like

:06:04. > :06:09.the campaign there was a lack of specifics that worried me. Let's

:06:10. > :06:16.look at the Observer. Hundreds of thousands of US women unite to voice

:06:17. > :06:33.defiance over Donald Trump, protests all over the world, and there they

:06:34. > :06:39.are wearing pink hats, these The pussy hats as they are called. With

:06:40. > :06:44.a home made? Let's hope they were not made in China. This attendance

:06:45. > :06:47.in Washington seems to have been greater than anyone expected and one

:06:48. > :06:56.does not have to be Trump administration will react. I think

:06:57. > :07:03.the preference is to say that this is the metropolitan liberal elite

:07:04. > :07:10.protesting against the choices of opinion or is that the groundswell

:07:11. > :07:12.of opinion? We have a president who we saw on television basically

:07:13. > :07:19.gloating about being a sexual predator. Part of Donald Trump 's

:07:20. > :07:28.appeal has been to people on the message boards, the Reddit message

:07:29. > :07:32.boards, especially men who go on the pick-up sites. There is an anger

:07:33. > :07:35.against women in America which is always staggered me. When I lived

:07:36. > :07:39.there I could not believe it. Not just in America although it seemed

:07:40. > :07:44.more pronounced in America. Strong women seem to attract anger from the

:07:45. > :07:52.lower economic levels of American men. Frightening. And this is

:07:53. > :07:57.important, we are moving forward, we cannot treat people like this. If

:07:58. > :08:01.you think the presidency gives legitimacy to behaviour like that,

:08:02. > :08:08.then it is wrong. The Sunday Times has an interesting headline which we

:08:09. > :08:15.were commenting on, a moment ago, women diss the Donald as Theresa May

:08:16. > :08:20.prepares to visit. Is that a proper word? It has to be the first time it

:08:21. > :08:25.has appeared in a headline. I think that they would believe that they

:08:26. > :08:29.were doing more than dissing the Donald, they were protesting against

:08:30. > :08:39.every one of his policies. This is newspaper logic. The Trump triumphs

:08:40. > :08:44.is at the top in big headlines, so they've come up with a clever way of

:08:45. > :08:49.getting him in there and it has failed abysmally, I would have

:08:50. > :08:53.thrown it back to the subeditor. So what is going on in this front page?

:08:54. > :08:59.You commented on the fact that they have used the word, diss, meaning

:09:00. > :09:06.disrespect. And then right at the top we have this super puff, as you

:09:07. > :09:11.call it, Trump's Triumph. Is a mismatch? I feel a front page should

:09:12. > :09:22.delight the eye and also be arresting. And we are thinking, is

:09:23. > :09:26.it all a triumph, or is The Donald already a failure and an

:09:27. > :09:34.objectionable person? I feel slightly confused by it. And also by

:09:35. > :09:39.the fact that we don't know quite what the story is telling us. I

:09:40. > :09:43.think it should have been, millions of people turned about marches in

:09:44. > :09:51.Washington and London. Perhaps you could enquire for us. Finally, the

:09:52. > :09:57.Sunday Times, a different story, No 10 covered up Trident missile

:09:58. > :10:04.fiasco. Tell us in a nutshell, Tony, what is this about? In June they

:10:05. > :10:09.tested the Trident missile. It was fired from a gym is Vengeance,

:10:10. > :10:21.submarine, and it seems to have gone the wrong way.

:10:22. > :10:29.-- it was fired from HMS Vengeance. What struck me about it was that

:10:30. > :10:33.this submarine had a four year refit and has only been back and see for

:10:34. > :10:39.seven months, it was the first time it had fired a missile in 16 years.

:10:40. > :10:45.It is about whether we've got the infrastructure to actually use

:10:46. > :10:49.nuclear weapons. The missile was not armed. It did veer towards America

:10:50. > :10:57.which could have been a problem but it wasn't armed. I think the story

:10:58. > :11:01.is more about that cover up, that wasn't mentioned before, there was

:11:02. > :11:13.that key Commons vote on whether it would be renewed. This is the

:11:14. > :11:21.central point of our defence system. The M O D and Downing Street have

:11:22. > :11:27.visited a statement saying that the efficacy of the system is

:11:28. > :11:32.unquestionable, in June, missiles were tested from HMS Vengeance. It

:11:33. > :11:36.goes on to say that HMS Vengeance and her crew were successfully

:11:37. > :11:40.tested and certified, allowing HMS Vengeance to return into service.

:11:41. > :11:45.They are not concerned, they have every confidence. Finally, the

:11:46. > :11:49.Sunday Telegraph, Paul Nuttall, all, we Ukip can win over betrayed Labour

:11:50. > :11:55.voters. This is the leader of Ukip, not long in his post, going to

:11:56. > :11:59.contest the Stoke-on-Trent Central constituency, the by-election

:12:00. > :12:03.triggered by Tristram Hunt, the Labour MP, stepping down.

:12:04. > :12:19.Extraordinary, Ukip positioning itself as the party of the working

:12:20. > :12:22.class. It is not all saying, Labour are the working-class party, it

:12:23. > :12:25.depicts Labour as a metropolitan elite party. I don't know if that

:12:26. > :12:31.will appeal to the voters in Stoke but it is interesting as we have

:12:32. > :12:36.said before, it has been a Labour seat since 1950s of the loss of that

:12:37. > :12:41.street would be extraordinary -- seat. The problem is that Labour

:12:42. > :12:45.will not accept the truth. It is fought on the Ukip battlefields all

:12:46. > :12:49.the time. The reality is that the political discourse these days is

:12:50. > :12:54.defined by xenophobia and racism. The Brexit Road was all about

:12:55. > :12:58.xenophobia and racism. Labour, yes, we need to double red immigration.

:12:59. > :13:02.Immigration is not the problem for the British working classes. The

:13:03. > :13:07.problem is that the unions have been destroyed, all the protections of

:13:08. > :13:10.workers taken away. It's not about Eastern Europeans coming in and

:13:11. > :13:14.undercutting you, it is that this has been allowed to happen although

:13:15. > :13:19.everyone is too frightened to say, you voted to leave Europe because it

:13:20. > :13:26.is racist. There are lots of reasons that people might have voted to

:13:27. > :13:40.leave. It was a big decision for a lot of people. A lot of people might

:13:41. > :13:44.think differently about having voted Brexit but it is the rise of these

:13:45. > :13:49.big politicians, the populist ones who say, I'm a different kind of

:13:50. > :13:55.guy, Paul Nuttall is the mini me Donald Trump. Labour needs to say,

:13:56. > :13:58.this is not about xenophobia, it's about austerity, and protection of

:13:59. > :14:05.workers' rights and Labour have not done that because they have pandered

:14:06. > :14:15.to people who say, immigration is a big issue. You have dropped these

:14:16. > :14:21.bombshells at the last minute, we have to stop, we'll pick it up again

:14:22. > :14:24.at half past 11 when Anne and Tony will look at the front pages. Coming

:14:25. > :14:28.up next, Reporters.
