:00:13. > :00:15.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:16. > :00:23.With me are Rosamund Urwin, columnist at the London Evening

:00:24. > :00:32.Standard, and Martin Lipton, deputy head of sport at The Sun.

:00:33. > :00:33.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with...

:00:34. > :00:36.The i leads on the Government's decision to shut down the unit it

:00:37. > :00:39.set up to investigate allegations that British troops abused local

:00:40. > :00:45.people while serving in Iraq, saying it's cost ?60 million.

:00:46. > :00:51.The Daily Mail, which campaigned on that story, says the witchhunt

:00:52. > :00:57.against British veterans cost ?60 million. The Mirror reports that a

:00:58. > :01:01.fundraiser who collected thousands of pounds for The Sun of the rugby

:01:02. > :01:09.is in court accused of keeping the cash. Overstretched NHS hospitals

:01:10. > :01:15.are paying doctors ?4000 a day, according to The Times. The

:01:16. > :01:18.Telegraph says the Apple is demanding a campaign against fake

:01:19. > :01:23.news, which it says is killing people's minds. The Guardian claims

:01:24. > :01:27.the government has abandoned the idea is of Donald Trump addressing

:01:28. > :01:32.both parliaments when it comes to Britain for a state visit later this

:01:33. > :01:36.year. The Daily Express says that the EU wants to hit the UK with a

:01:37. > :01:42.bill of ?49 billion as part of Brexit. There is a lot to keep us

:01:43. > :01:49.busy. And only 16 minutes to do is turn. We will start with The Daily

:01:50. > :01:55.Mail. At last an end to the witchhunt. This is a long-running

:01:56. > :01:59.campaign to say that these trips have had these allegations held over

:02:00. > :02:10.them for a decade and nothing has come of it. They had put it on their

:02:11. > :02:15.front page because they consider it their victory, although other papers

:02:16. > :02:21.have been campaigning as well. They mention a lawyer who has been struck

:02:22. > :02:29.off over his tank chasing tactics here. This has been something that

:02:30. > :02:35.has put a lot of pressure on veterans who avoided been through an

:02:36. > :02:42.awful lot. The government is the same label nb claims brought against

:02:43. > :02:48.veterans from the Afghan conflict. This is a very popular move across

:02:49. > :02:54.the country. Yes, there may have been things that were wrong but

:02:55. > :02:57.where other word criminal acts they deserve to be investigated properly

:02:58. > :03:04.and we have had cases where service men have been jailed for what they

:03:05. > :03:09.did, which was wrong. A lot of these issues clearly were not and there

:03:10. > :03:14.has been significant investigation that has found no basis to the

:03:15. > :03:21.allegations made. Now they are talking about the closure of this

:03:22. > :03:29.ongoing investigation. 3600 claims were looked at by the Iraq historic

:03:30. > :03:35.delegation team and that will be down to 20. The most serious cases

:03:36. > :03:39.need to be investigated, but this constant number... It has turned

:03:40. > :03:44.into a cash cow and that is what is worrying. It has gone on for so long

:03:45. > :03:51.because of the situation with the lawyer that had to be dealt with. We

:03:52. > :03:59.have been talking to the former head of the British Army and he says that

:04:00. > :04:02.we should go back to the old system and someone who understands the

:04:03. > :04:10.military should be the first people to investigate. It would make sense.

:04:11. > :04:14.You would want the police to look at things that go wrong in the police

:04:15. > :04:20.and the army to look at things that have gone wrong within the army. You

:04:21. > :04:23.would hope that they have significant sense of independence

:04:24. > :04:31.within the organisation to judge themselves. If you really believe

:04:32. > :04:35.that the army had batted them and they deserve the trust and respect

:04:36. > :04:41.they get them, they have to be able to make those decisions. You have to

:04:42. > :04:44.wonder if there might be some kind of compensation for people who have

:04:45. > :04:52.been put through this for all these years. It has been hanging over them

:04:53. > :04:57.for so long. Some health stories in The Times to end the week. We have

:04:58. > :05:04.belittling at the NHS in great detail on BBC News. Hospitals pay

:05:05. > :05:08.law comes ?4000 for a day off work. A local is a stand on Doctor who

:05:09. > :05:13.does not have a substantive post in a hospital. They come to fill the

:05:14. > :05:24.gaps. They can almost name their price. Hundreds of locum doctors are

:05:25. > :05:31.paid ?100,000 a year. We know the contracts which the doctors have

:05:32. > :05:36.been as to sign or of great concern. We have a significant issue within

:05:37. > :05:41.the NHS which is causing problems. I sign an interview with Jeremy Hunt

:05:42. > :05:47.where he talked in great terms about the situation and people will wonder

:05:48. > :05:52.how it can come to this and why we cannot have a more sensible system.

:05:53. > :06:00.We could see ?300 million a year being spent on temporary doctors.

:06:01. > :06:05.There are massive gaps and wrote us, as any doctor will tell you, and

:06:06. > :06:12.they have to pluck them. The alternative is that they do not plug

:06:13. > :06:15.them with anybody. I don't think we should pay 4000 staff but we should

:06:16. > :06:21.have sufficient staff that we don't have these gaps in the first place.

:06:22. > :06:28.It takes years to train doctors will stop six or seven years. I have two

:06:29. > :06:35.doctors who have gone to Australia and New Zealand and that does not

:06:36. > :06:39.help. It explains how terrible the circumstances are. The pressure

:06:40. > :06:45.thereunder. And sure they did not want to leave Britain necessarily.

:06:46. > :06:49.Some will always leave but you do not want to train people and invest

:06:50. > :06:56.in them and then they think their best option is not to stay in the

:06:57. > :07:00.country. We need a health service we can all believe in and that is the

:07:01. > :07:06.duty of government. At the moment there seems to be a lack of faith in

:07:07. > :07:11.the delivery of that service. GPs add to strain on a knee by failing

:07:12. > :07:15.to open all day. What does that mean? Most surgeries seemed to be

:07:16. > :07:24.open from morning to evening. Less than eight hours here. Again, GPs

:07:25. > :07:29.are incredibly stressed, all the ones I know, and people are leaving

:07:30. > :07:35.general practice, so something does not add up here. Clearly we need GPs

:07:36. > :07:42.to be open and we need them to be seeing elderly patients and they

:07:43. > :07:52.need to go to their GP quickly. Otherwise they will end up in AME.

:07:53. > :07:58.-- in A My sister-in-law is a GP and she tells is often of this sheer

:07:59. > :08:05.demand on her time will stop it seems like there is never-ending

:08:06. > :08:11.expectations. Lots of GPs go out to the community, not in every place,

:08:12. > :08:14.but some of them go, and some of them are doing business but the

:08:15. > :08:20.surgery would not qualify as being open. Jeremy Hunt says that he

:08:21. > :08:30.recognises things are unacceptable... He has been in

:08:31. > :08:33.charge. What about Andrew Lansley. He said it didn't help hospitals

:08:34. > :08:38.cope but there were other parts of the system... Is it another cunning

:08:39. > :08:43.plan the government have come up with? Be no funding to the NHS, as

:08:44. > :08:49.much as they claim it is increasing, it is not. Maybe it is not

:08:50. > :09:02.increasing fast enough to keep up with demand. Flexibility of demand.

:09:03. > :09:09.Social care is another issue. Fake news is killing mines, the head of

:09:10. > :09:15.Apple, Tim Cook, demanding a drive to educate against the scourge of

:09:16. > :09:21.misinformation. The problem we have is that the whole concept of fake

:09:22. > :09:24.news has now been debased by the fact that anyone who comes up with

:09:25. > :09:32.information which is contrary to your opinion can be demeaned and

:09:33. > :09:37.denied and branded as fake news. When you have a representative of

:09:38. > :09:43.the most important government of the world talking about alternative fax

:09:44. > :09:53.your going down a rocky path. Links CNN fake news to undermine them. --

:09:54. > :09:58.calling CNN. I think what he is suggesting here is necessary. We

:09:59. > :10:01.need to educate the people. They had a left of the top fake stories of

:10:02. > :10:10.last year and one of them was that the Pope had supported Donald Trump,

:10:11. > :10:17.which was complete nonsense. This is the social media echo chamber,

:10:18. > :10:22.people that are repeating things that are nonsense because it is what

:10:23. > :10:28.they want to believe. Is this not just down to critical thinking,

:10:29. > :10:31.which we need to learn in school? I think there is something about being

:10:32. > :10:38.presented with a new story that makes people think it is credible.

:10:39. > :10:43.But you don't think... Am a journalist. But that is about being

:10:44. > :10:53.a critical thinker. We could teach that in schools. I think it is

:10:54. > :11:00.asking people to confront its. Sometimes people just want to

:11:01. > :11:03.believe what they see. When people are being funnelled into a

:11:04. > :11:06.one-dimensional view of the world, irrespective of that view is

:11:07. > :11:12.correct, you're going to have problems. People want to believe

:11:13. > :11:21.things that coincide with what they believe. His argument is that if you

:11:22. > :11:26.tell children not to believe everything, they will go home and

:11:27. > :11:33.said the same to their parents. I think that is an interesting way to

:11:34. > :11:42.think about it. It is like children telling their parents to recycle.

:11:43. > :11:50.The Express, the EU is warned that they will not believe us. Brussels

:11:51. > :12:00.once ?49 billion. That sounds expensive. When you leave a club,

:12:01. > :12:10.you have to pay leaving charge. What is it for? One of the things it is

:12:11. > :12:15.covering is making the MEPs redundant, so that includes Nigel

:12:16. > :12:22.Farage who want to be in Europe and is still receiving a salary. Perhaps

:12:23. > :12:27.he won't take the redundancy... He claims his expenses and takes a

:12:28. > :12:40.salary. Why would we pay? We have to. MPs all used to pay something if

:12:41. > :12:46.they lost an election, and I think that has been dramatically cut. I

:12:47. > :12:52.think we can cut this. If you are due, irrespective of Brexit, you

:12:53. > :12:59.will want the UK to pay a heavy price for leaving to stop anyone

:13:00. > :13:03.else going down the same pattern. Therefore, they are going to extort

:13:04. > :13:10.as high a price as they can. We need to find a way to counteract that. Do

:13:11. > :13:19.you charge extra for speaking French on this programme? Not with my

:13:20. > :13:26.accent. On page ten of The Mail, no estate agents make buyers pay ?1000

:13:27. > :13:33.reservation fee just to take homes of the market. If you find a home

:13:34. > :13:39.want to buy and you don't want competition you pay ?1000 and no one

:13:40. > :13:43.else can find it. Critics have understandably labelled this another

:13:44. > :13:48.property rip-off. Because people are so desperate to find a house want

:13:49. > :13:53.the property to come off the market, they are being made to pay this fee.

:13:54. > :14:04.This is not in Scotland, I assume. It is banned there. I believe they

:14:05. > :14:08.have a system without gazumping. It is a simpler system. Lots of people

:14:09. > :14:14.want England and Wales to copy Scotland in that regard. There are

:14:15. > :14:21.estate agents who are charging a couple of hundred pounds to sell

:14:22. > :14:24.your home. My theory is that the market is slow at the moment though

:14:25. > :14:30.there are not many properties coming on the market. Prices are not

:14:31. > :14:37.falling but there is an expectation that they will stagnate. You get

:14:38. > :14:40.desperate sellers doing it, but that means there are not many properties

:14:41. > :14:45.which means fewer transactions and estate agents are finding other ways

:14:46. > :14:49.to make money. Also there was the competition but the online estate

:14:50. > :14:56.agents who are charging much less than the established estate agents.

:14:57. > :15:11.They have no overheads. Very few anyway. On page three of The Times,

:15:12. > :15:15.here comes red-hot TV. This is the end of those Scandinavian series

:15:16. > :15:22.where we bought the jumper. It will not be dark, it will be warm and

:15:23. > :15:30.bright and still murder. These are television as well are famous in

:15:31. > :15:36.Brazil. They also pick out Narcosis, a programme about the Colombian drug

:15:37. > :15:43.trades which is just completed its second series. There is lots of

:15:44. > :15:47.drama. I think it is inevitable that we get a bit sick of the same

:15:48. > :15:55.stories. There is always a missing child, a cop who has problems, so

:15:56. > :16:08.there comes a time when you try to do the opposite. There are hardly

:16:09. > :16:14.uplifting. One top alert in Brazil is about a serial killer thing that

:16:15. > :16:22.with police. It is in a nicer location. One uses a honey making

:16:23. > :16:27.businesses a front for a male escort service. Another one is about a

:16:28. > :16:31.young couple that befriend their neighbours with disastrous

:16:32. > :16:40.consequences. Have got time talk about the back page... We do. We

:16:41. > :16:48.have one minute left. Which one are we looking at. The Times. This is

:16:49. > :16:52.going to hurt, Wales against England on BBC One. It is a proper game.

:16:53. > :16:59.England played badly and one last week. This could be the defining

:17:00. > :17:04.match of the Six Nations. If England when they will look very strong. The

:17:05. > :17:12.Welsh are determined to send them back with a fully behind their ears.

:17:13. > :17:18.-- a fleet of time. Wales are the underdogs and they like being the

:17:19. > :17:23.underdogs. England do not do well in Cardiff. It is going to be a great

:17:24. > :17:26.battle between two good teams. England are the favourites but it

:17:27. > :17:37.will be on the edge. It will be brutal. I would like to point out

:17:38. > :17:39.how our papers have neatly been stretched across the desk. You can

:17:40. > :17:44.see the front pages online. It's all there for you,

:17:45. > :17:46.seven days a week at And if you miss the programme any

:17:47. > :17:51.evening you can watch it
