medal after he took home bronze in 2013. That is all the sport. Now | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
time for The treble Hello and welcome to our look ahead | :00:00. | :00:16. | |
to what the the papers will be With me are the journalist | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
and auther Matthew Green and the Education Editor | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
of the Sunday Times, The Observer leads with what it | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
calls the "global fury" in reaction to Donald Trump's immigration ban, | :00:27. | :00:40. | |
preventing people from seven mainly Muslim countries | :00:41. | :00:42. | |
from entering the United States. The Sunday Times says that | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
Donald Trump's visit to the UK could be disrupted, | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
as the US President is engaged in a reportedly "extraordinary" | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
diplomatic row with Prince Charles The Express says Prince William | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
and Harry are to unveil a statue of Princess Diana in the grounds | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
of Kensington Palace to mark The Daily Mail reports that NHS | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
doctors have been advised in guidelines from the BMA not | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
to call pregnant women "mothers" because it might offend | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
transgender people. And The Telegraph leads | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
with comments from the Northern Ireland Secretary, | :01:16. | :01:17. | |
James Brokenshire, who tells the paper the system | :01:18. | :01:19. | |
for investigating murders committed so, let's begin, and we're going to | :01:20. | :01:28. | |
start with the Observer. All of the papers this morning reflecting on | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
what Donald Trump has done. Indeed. America is clearly on the brink of a | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
precipice. We are seeing paranoia and fear of the kind that | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
accompanied the internment of Japanese Americans in World War II. | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
What does it mean for Britain? We've seen Theresa May essentially cosying | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
up to trump in the hope that she might somehow provide sort of a | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
constraining influence -- restraining influence, but we have | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
seen that hope blown out of the water with what happened yesterday | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
with these thousands of refugees and migrants. All credit is the | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
Observer, they have laid it there on the front page. Trump is ignorant, | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
prejudiced and vicious in ways that no American leader has been. I think | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
Theresa May's refusal to join other European leaders condemning what' | :02:19. | :02:26. | |
Trump is doing is a huge stain on her leadership. A huge criticism of | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
her has been that she is letting America do what they want to do | :02:33. | :02:35. | |
rather than condemning it. Is she stuck between a rock and a hard | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
place? I suppose in a way she is because she very much wants to sign | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
trade deals with America post-Brexit. She has come out today, | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
her spokesman, and said that she does not agree with Trump stance. | :02:53. | :02:57. | |
She didn't do it herself. She didn't. The Observer is the early | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
paper that has splashed on this this morning. All credit to the Observer, | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
they got quickly to this issue and they have seen how big it is going | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
to be. To be fair to her, she has, through this morning, she has made | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
this statement, she has said if there are British citizens caught up | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
in this through dual nationality, we will be looking to represent them. | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
She's going to have difficulty, you're absolutely right, Matthew. | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
Already this morning, members of her party are saying look, this is | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
wrong, we don't agree it. Sarah Wollaston has come out, Ruth | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
Davidson has said quite clearly that this is wrong. We understand there | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
is one Iraqi born Tory MP who may be banned from the states after this, | :03:43. | :03:50. | |
under these new rules. We saw Theresa May at the press conference | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
in Turkey ducking the question twice and then making this very weak | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
statement about, essentially, it is America's business. We need a leader | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
who is willing to stand up for democratic values. I'm afraid that | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
Theresa May is failing that test. It's not good enough to issue a very | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
weakly worded statement saying we could not agree with what Donald | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
Trump is doing. US newspapers are calling him a tinpot dictator. | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
America, in the past week, has suffered its ugliest start to any | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
republic in the history of the country. We need to be joining other | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
Western leaders in standing up to this and not cravenly endorsing it. | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
It is a completely new era in politics, right across the world. It | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
is, but has Theresa May grasp this? She is surrounded by these special | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
advisers that the papers always talk about being incredibly intelligent, | :04:43. | :04:49. | |
but maybe she should consult a psychologist, who would tell her | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
that Donald Trump is suffering from narcissistic personality disorder, | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
he is prejudiced, vengeful. It is totally obvious, it is not politics | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
as usual and Theresa May has to catch up with that. Let's move on to | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
the Sunday Times because it's not just the rest of the world he is | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
fighting with, it's also Prince Charles! What has happened? This is | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
a great story. Donald Trump seems to being gauged in an extraordinary | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
diplomatic row with the Prince of Wales over climate change and is | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
threatening to disrupt his forthcoming state visit to the UK". | :05:28. | :05:32. | |
On the one hand you have Prince Charles, environmental campaigner. | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
On the other hand, Donald Trump who is a climate change denier. There | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
are some amazing quotes in this story in the Sunday Times and I have | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
highlighted a view of them here. Apparently Trump's people are saying | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
that he is very reluctant to meet Prince Charles and they have warned | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
it would be counter-productive for Charles to lecture Trump on green | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
issues and he would erupt if he were pushed! On the other hand you have | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
got Charl plus people saying he is determined to meet Donald Trump. | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
This is Donald Trump who has tweeted about how, wouldn't anyone want to | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
make money by tweeting topless photos of Kate Middleton... He has | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
tweeted his desire to have slept with Princess Diana... Why are we | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
letting him into the country? I find the tone of the Sunday Times story | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
quite puzzling, as it Prince Charles, somehow his advocacy on | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
climate change is somehow problematic and is going to disrupt | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
this visit. Let's face it, climate change is the threat to the future | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
of organised life on planet Earth and Donald Trump has gagged members | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
of his government, scientists who are working on this and he has | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
essentially confirmed that the Republican party is now the most | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
dangerous organisation on earth. The idea that Prince Charles is somehow | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
at fault here I think is wrong, we should be rallying around him and | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
saying come on, what direction are we taking and why? I don't think the | :07:05. | :07:12. | |
story is saying that Prince Charles is at fault here. It implies Prince | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
Charles is somehow causing a problem to what otherwise would be a | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
wonderful visit. I don't think that is the tone at all. I think it lays | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
out an argument very clearly. The straightforward reporting here, | :07:27. | :07:28. | |
there is one paragraph that says Trump has repeatedly branded climate | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
change a hoax and a moneymaking industry and was created by the | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
Chinese to damage American industry. When you have that sort of straight | :07:39. | :07:42. | |
reporting you think, OK, you can make up your own mind. Senior | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
government officials now believe Charles is one of the biggest risk | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
factors for the visit"... Donald Trump is the risk factor! He might | :07:53. | :08:02. | |
tell him... Donald Trump might agree with him just like you did with | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
Theresa May, alternative facts again! We're going back to Theresa | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
May and President Erdogan in Turkey and the trade deal for that. If we | :08:11. | :08:17. | |
just move, just tidying up the desk here, there we go... So the viewers | :08:18. | :08:24. | |
can see this one. A double page spread there, they shake on trade | :08:25. | :08:31. | |
deals despite fears over human rights. What do you make of this | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
one? She has agreed a trade deal, or is preparing to agree a ?100 million | :08:37. | :08:43. | |
deal for fighter jets which could lead in fact to Britain becoming | :08:44. | :08:47. | |
Turkey's main defence partner. At the same time, she has given a very | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
clear warning on human rights. Again it is this need to find close trade | :08:53. | :09:03. | |
and diplomatic links Stal side B EU in the wake of Brexit. It is the | :09:04. | :09:06. | |
sense that the world order has changed. We never had any morals | :09:07. | :09:13. | |
about selling arms, look at the billions of dollars we have sent to | :09:14. | :09:20. | |
Saudi Arabia which is now being used to bomb civilians and hospitals in | :09:21. | :09:26. | |
Yemen. It is great that we have human rights concerns in the | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
headline there but it doesn't make any difference to British policy, | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
let's not me under any illusions, we are one of the biggest arms | :09:34. | :09:36. | |
exporters in the world. Post Brexit, as we walk away from the single | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
market on our doorstep, we will be even more reliant on selling weapons | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
to anyone who will buy them. I've never heard his words before, there | :09:46. | :09:57. | |
we go, apparently Trump has a fear of slopes and that is why he was | :09:58. | :10:05. | |
holding her hand! I think bathmophobia is going to be one of | :10:06. | :10:08. | |
the words of the year, everyone is talking about this and classed as a | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
mark of special affection but apparently it might just be the case | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
that he is quite afraid of slopes and he just gathered her hand to | :10:20. | :10:25. | |
steady himself! He's also afraid of touching people because of germs! It | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
will haunt Theresa May, won't it? What a disaster. The whole thing is | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
so embarrassing. I don't know what the rest of the world must think of | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
Britain right now. If you don't condemn authoritarianism, you become | :10:41. | :10:46. | |
complicit in it and she is teaching us that, unfortunately. Let's move | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
away from Theresa May and Donald Trump and moved to the Daily Mail. | :10:52. | :10:59. | |
"Don't Call pregnant patients the mothers", and why not? Because it | :11:00. | :11:03. | |
might offend transgender people. Did they say they might be offended? No, | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
but I think these organisations, a lot of them are producing these kind | :11:09. | :11:17. | |
of guides for inclusive language. Of course the mail on Sunday disagrees | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
with it and calls it a ludicrous politically correct objective. The | :11:21. | :11:26. | |
argument is that you should call them pregnant people instead of | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
pregnant mothers, because there are transitioning people who might have | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
babies who might be offended. Would they not be mothers anyway if they | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
are having babies, no matter what your gender you are still giving | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
birth? But mother is a sort of feminine word, isn't it? There is | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
one transitioning person who has become pregnant. Hayden is legally | :11:49. | :11:56. | |
male, he was born a girl but he is transitioning to become a man. I | :11:57. | :12:02. | |
would like to read the original document that this mail on Sunday | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
story is based on. The mail on Sunday does do some good reporting | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
sometimes but my question is, is this a blanket order that the word | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
mothers is now banned? I find that hard to believe. Or is it merely | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
offering language that could be used if you are a doctor treating a | :12:19. | :12:24. | |
transgender patient. Let's face it, our society is evolving. It's not so | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
long ago that we locked people up their sexuality. Yes it's a con the | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
gated area to negotiate and it might make feel -- people feel | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
uncomfortable but people born transgender go through incredible | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
anguish and pain, partly because attitudes in society are so | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
prejudiced still. So let's at least support doctors if they are trying | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
to move beyond that a bit. It's very easy for the Mail on Sunday to | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
create the outraged brigade. I've noticed in a love of forms and | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
things now, you are being asked what pronoun you would like to be | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
referred to by. I think there is a generation of young people coming up | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
for whom the very strict gender divides are not as strict as they | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
were for our generation, they are much more fluid. Headteachers of | :13:17. | :13:24. | |
girls schools have been given guides and told not to call girls girls, | :13:25. | :13:31. | |
instead of saying girls go to your lessons, say pupils go to your | :13:32. | :13:35. | |
lessons. It may be rare to have a transgender child but it is only | :13:36. | :13:38. | |
language, if we can change our language and it stops offence to | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
people, is that that -- is that such a bad thing? The Secretary of State | :13:43. | :13:51. | |
saying that soldiers and police have been failed by this inquiry into the | :13:52. | :14:01. | |
Troubles. The Sunday Telegraph has a strong military constituency amongst | :14:02. | :14:05. | |
its leadership, knows -- so not surprising to see this as the | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
splash. Ministers saying that this inquiry into crimes that were | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
allegedly committed up to 40 years ago in the troubles has gone off the | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
rails. We've seen this with the Iraq inquiry, which has caused terrible | :14:18. | :14:26. | |
handling of officers in the military. Let's face it, Northern | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
Ireland was an extremely dirty conflict and there is no doubt that | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
British troops committing crimes and they should be investigated, but we | :14:35. | :14:37. | |
should also remember that the psychological scars inflicted on | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of British troops who | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
deployed over the years are still very alive today and we need to take | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
that into account. That would apply to all inquiries, where you have got | :14:54. | :14:56. | |
soldiers or police taking part in a conflict. I mean, yesterday there | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
was a march on Downing Street by about 1000 veterans and it was | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
addressed by Dennis Hutchings who is 75 and he has been charged with | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
attempted murder over a fatal shooting in Northern Ireland in | :15:14. | :15:16. | |
1974. They want a statute of limitations. I think there should be | :15:17. | :15:21. | |
a time after a conflict when you draw a line actually, so it doesn't | :15:22. | :15:29. | |
go on for years and years. They want retribution. This is the problem, we | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
fight these wars and the legacy continues. I mean, Northern Ireland | :15:34. | :15:37. | |
has one of the highest rates of post-traumatic stress disorder in | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
the world. Belfast is a tiny city but the ghosts of that conflict are | :15:42. | :15:45. | |
still very much alive. People have a right to demand the truth. I grew up | :15:46. | :15:53. | |
through that and that was my time as a teenager. The truth and | :15:54. | :16:03. | |
reconciliation commission... Yes, right, on that, let's move on. The | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
Observer on page one, "Grassroots Labour revolting on Brexit". This is | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
interesting, isn't it? Jeremy Corbyn himself in the past has been a major | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
rebel and now they have got this three line whip and no one is happy. | :16:19. | :16:23. | |
How do you think this is going to play out? This is the Brexit | :16:24. | :16:29. | |
dilemma, isn't it? The people likely to be hit hardest if we crash out of | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
the single market are people on lower incomes, Labour's | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
constituencies. It is not surprisingly many of the MPs and | :16:39. | :16:41. | |
grassroots Labour supporters are very unhappy to see Jeremy Corbyn | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
falling in line behind Article 50. That is I get -- Adele and it is not | :16:46. | :16:51. | |
going to be easy to resolve. What does it do for Jeremy Corbyn? And | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
Labour because they could be stuck in the middle with nothing through | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
this. It is just a continuation of the internal warfare going on inside | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
the Labour Party. Last night there was this open letter to Jeremy | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
Corbyn circulating on Facebook and now many constituents have signed | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
it. Let's raise through the rest of the list because we are beginning to | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
run out of time. A quick look at the express, the young princes are going | :17:20. | :17:23. | |
to unveil a statue to their mother, Diana, to mark the 20th anniversary | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
which will be in August. It's a long time coming, do you think? I think | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
this is a lovely gesture actually. It's going to be erected in the | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
grounds of Kensington Palace where the public anger and see it. It will | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
be their permanent tribute to her, marking the 20th anniversary of her | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
death. Yes it may have been nice to have it earlier but at we're having | :17:46. | :17:57. | |
it now. Let's jump to John Hurt, we lost John Heard. Can we talk about | :17:58. | :18:05. | |
Prince Harry's expression of emotion and how he is a credit to our | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
country and should resist Donald Trump at the door of Buckingham | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
Palace! Tributes pouring in all over for John Hurt, obviously very | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
beloved. Yes, we all remember that brilliant scene in Alien when it | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
burst out of his chest. And the Elephant Man as well. And if you see | :18:28. | :18:34. | |
Jackie, you can see him. He blazed the priest. Astonishing. -- he plays | :18:35. | :18:42. | |
the priest. He has completed another three films, I think, which we are | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
yet to see. Finally, the Sunday Times, page one, Trident's faulty | :18:49. | :18:53. | |
guidance. This is an embarrassing story, it has been running for a few | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
days, apparently the Trident missile test launch veered off course, | :18:58. | :19:00. | |
heading towards the American mainland before it was detonated in | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
midair and is one assumes it was not equipped with a warhead, but it | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
raises huge questions over the whole purpose of Trident, doesn't it? This | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
enormously expensive deterrent and a problem with it is that the | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
technology is evolving so fast, we are soon going to be having | :19:17. | :19:20. | |
underwater drones that can follow the submarine right out of the... | :19:21. | :19:27. | |
And render it completely obsolete. It said it did what it was supposed | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
to do when something goes wrong, it fears off and explodes. Not on | :19:32. | :19:37. | |
America! But I was reading yesterday or this morning that part of it | :19:38. | :19:45. | |
washed up on a beach... We broke this story last week in the Sunday | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
Times and we have a follow-up story today and I think what our follow-up | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
shows that actually this deterrent was blighted with problems with its | :19:55. | :19:57. | |
navigation control for years before this particular malfunction. Inside | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
the paper there is a really interesting suggestion that maybe | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
the whole system was hacked. And so the reason it malfunctioned... Can | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
we not just mothballed this thing, or are we just have it, just have it | :20:13. | :20:16. | |
with no warheads. No one will ever know and it is still a deterrent! If | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
we ever have to press that button, it's all over anyway. Thank you very | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
much, both of you. It's been great to talk to you. | :20:28. | :20:29. | |
Just a reminder we take a look at tomorrows front pages every | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
