:00:16. > :00:18.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:19. > :00:23.With me are Martin Bentham, Home Affairs Editor

:00:24. > :00:24.at The Evening Standard, the broadcaster Lynn Faulds-Wood.

:00:25. > :00:34.Tomorrow's front pages now, starting with...

:00:35. > :00:42.The Daily Telegraph said a Scottish referendum may be put off six years.

:00:43. > :00:45.The Guardian leads a Nicola Sturgeon's assessment that the Prime

:00:46. > :00:47.Minister's stance may have sealed the fate of the union. Metro has the

:00:48. > :00:53.same story. "Brexit comes before Scotland"

:00:54. > :00:56.is how the i sums up Theresa May's response to the calls

:00:57. > :01:15.from Scottish nationalists. Claims that taking statins increases

:01:16. > :01:33.the risk of diabetes dominate Let's start with a story dominating

:01:34. > :01:43.quite a few of those front pages. And that is Scotland. We have

:01:44. > :01:46.triggered Brexit which is what the Prime Minister announced and then

:01:47. > :01:51.immediately off the blocks comes the little box that is Nicola Sturgeon.

:01:52. > :01:54.I know her and an incredibly brilliant politician, but I think on

:01:55. > :02:01.this one, if you don't mind me saying so, Nicola, you've just gone

:02:02. > :02:04.a bit over the top, because she is provoking Theresa May she is

:02:05. > :02:10.provoking her back and now the Prime Minister is Saint we have to wait

:02:11. > :02:12.six years if Scotland wants a referendum. That seems an

:02:13. > :02:20.extraordinarily long time. I she said it would have to wait until

:02:21. > :02:23.after Brexit. Why six years? The big problem is that the Scottish will

:02:24. > :02:33.not stand for it. If you want a war, that is it. She hasn't quite said

:02:34. > :02:38.six years, this is an extrapolation. She said it is not before the Brexit

:02:39. > :02:45.vote or not before this and then is to be time for Scotland's assess the

:02:46. > :02:49.Brexit deal. It is suggesting here it would need a new mandate in the

:02:50. > :02:55.2021 election and therefore would stretch on for another 18 months.

:02:56. > :02:59.That's all conjecture. What is happening is there will not be an

:03:00. > :03:01.instant referendum, because the Prime Minister doesn't want to

:03:02. > :03:06.interfere with the Brexit negotiations. Sturgeon has said

:03:07. > :03:11.light have one as early as next year. Yes, but she knows that's

:03:12. > :03:17.impossible for the Prime Minister to agree to. Well, she will not want to

:03:18. > :03:22.come aboard a Scotland in the meantime? They don't have a vote in

:03:23. > :03:26.the Scottish Parliament next week. How can they keep two warring

:03:27. > :03:31.factions, because that's what will happen, how can you keep them apart?

:03:32. > :03:36.My front are very excited about what is happening now. Scotland could

:03:37. > :03:39.easily swing behind Nicola Sturgeon. Because last time, in the last

:03:40. > :03:44.referendum, and the Scots voted to stay in because they were promised

:03:45. > :03:49.that way we would stay in Europe and get all this lovely Carbon capture

:03:50. > :03:53.and billions for wind farms and then it disappeared afterwards. They felt

:03:54. > :03:58.betrayed. So no wonder Nicola Sturgeon is fighting for it. They

:03:59. > :04:04.didn't although because they wanted to remain in Europe are the last

:04:05. > :04:10.referendum. But now they don't trust what is coming up. If they want to

:04:11. > :04:18.leave, it is up to them ultimately, but it can't actually happen when...

:04:19. > :04:25.If it does wait six years, they could potentially then vote them,

:04:26. > :04:28.and that's up to the Scottish people to decide. Be not to jeopardise the

:04:29. > :04:35.Brexit negotiations, that is the principal point. The Guardian has

:04:36. > :04:41.picked up on this same story. Sturgeon may have sealed the fate of

:04:42. > :04:46.the UK. A slightly different take. That is Nicola Sturgeon's argument,

:04:47. > :04:50.that by rejecting what she sees as a legitimate demand for a referendum

:04:51. > :04:53.more or less immediately, therefore, that will do what you say can

:04:54. > :04:59.galvanise support for independence. That might happen. It is a risk for

:05:00. > :05:04.Theresa May, but she was not a position where she could do anything

:05:05. > :05:08.else because Brexit. Every single Council in Scotland, I think I've

:05:09. > :05:12.read, voted to Remained, because they want to stay closer to Europe

:05:13. > :05:15.and if they're going to have any chance of that, they want to get out

:05:16. > :05:21.of the United Kingdom. I think is the most... It is like some kind of

:05:22. > :05:26.nightmare I've landed on. Who would have bought five years ago we would

:05:27. > :05:29.be in this mess? The Prime Minister of the employed to gather to the

:05:30. > :05:38.Brexit, Scotland will come out of EU anyway. But they will. Most of them

:05:39. > :05:42.want to stay in though. Because they like to blame others for all their

:05:43. > :05:59.ills, don't they? Roger-Yves Bost no! No! The Metro again picking up

:06:00. > :06:04.on this real row going on between a Nicola Sturgeon and Theresa May, two

:06:05. > :06:12.very strong women. Scots fury as they blocks referendum. Both sides

:06:13. > :06:16.seem to be rushing up the rhetoric? Particularly from Sturgeon's

:06:17. > :06:23.viewpoint, I understand why she's doing it. It plays the advantage to

:06:24. > :06:26.do it. Whether in the longer and if push comes to shove she actually

:06:27. > :06:30.think persuade people of the economic risks and someone and the

:06:31. > :06:36.real prospect of what will be like being part of a small country in the

:06:37. > :06:42.European Union as opposed to... Small countries do very well. Look

:06:43. > :06:53.at Slovenia. But as you are saying, this is a classic... It is what is

:06:54. > :07:02.called a face that sandbox. In the Glasgow edition should be smiling.

:07:03. > :07:08.-- she will be smiling. Letters have a look at some other stories in the

:07:09. > :07:16.papers in the morning. Martin, The Times. They be running some

:07:17. > :07:22.investigations and what they been pointing out is that when adverts

:07:23. > :07:25.placed by all sorts of businesses, including the Cabinet Office which

:07:26. > :07:32.is pulled many adverts from the Internet because Google and other

:07:33. > :07:38.Internet providers are placing their adverts alongside extremist content,

:07:39. > :07:40.which is allowing extremists, reverent or racists, to raise money

:07:41. > :07:59.off the back of advertising. When I was doing a independent

:08:00. > :08:04.review for the Government, which they still haven't done anything

:08:05. > :08:06.with, when I look to the recall website across Europe, you would

:08:07. > :08:12.find there were loads of them and they had got all sorts of Thai

:08:13. > :08:18.massage parlour adverts and sorts of ads and I'm glad that Google is

:08:19. > :08:24.being hauled in and Twitter as well and being as what they are doing.

:08:25. > :08:30.Yes, placed alongside other unsavoury content of an advert is

:08:31. > :08:38.viewed, it generates revenue for the person putting up the unsavoury

:08:39. > :08:45.content. Another example of how difficult it is to police the

:08:46. > :08:54.Internet. Another interesting story, going back to the cover-macro

:08:55. > :09:01.Telegraph fear about the role of GCHQ in this spying on the other

:09:02. > :09:04.side of the Atlantic. Trump my like to come up with some evidence for

:09:05. > :09:11.saying that Obama spied on him and they seem to think that GCHQ are

:09:12. > :09:19.spies and somehow or other they held a bomb to spy on Trump in the

:09:20. > :09:24.Telegraph. It is claimed they got intelligence agencies to spy on him

:09:25. > :09:29.and that has been roundly rubbished by his owner agencies so easy now as

:09:30. > :09:33.the final of justifying this, so the new argument is is that we were

:09:34. > :09:40.doing at our behalf of the Americans, because you can't find

:09:41. > :09:46.our fingerprints on it in America. We have actually had a statement

:09:47. > :09:51.from a GCHQ tonight saying that recent allegations by media

:09:52. > :09:56.commentator judge Andrew Napolitano about GCHQ being asked to conduct a

:09:57. > :09:59.wiretapping against the then President-elect Art nonsense. They

:10:00. > :10:08.are utterly ridiculous and should be ignored. An extremely strong

:10:09. > :10:14.statesman. Whenever Trump seems to get in trouble, he comes up with

:10:15. > :10:18.some angle for getting him out of there by distracting you. And this

:10:19. > :10:24.sounds like a classic distraction. OK, so Trump was not there, Obama

:10:25. > :10:29.wasn't doing it, but perhaps the British were doing it for him. And

:10:30. > :10:35.there was a reference to the original allegation which was

:10:36. > :10:39.repeated by Trump's press secretary. Letters touch on a couple of other

:10:40. > :10:52.slightly lighter stories in the papers in the morning. The Bake Off.

:10:53. > :10:57.The new line-up. , Well, we've got a fascinating... Sandy toxic and Noel

:10:58. > :11:09.Fielding. You normally see the latter on satirical shows.

:11:10. > :11:12.I don't know whether either of them can cook. It could be quite

:11:13. > :11:29.entertaining. This new line-up, do you think you

:11:30. > :11:37.will be a success, Martin? It'll be hard to recapture the success of the

:11:38. > :11:41.original, who knows? Channel 4 doesn't begin to get the audience

:11:42. > :11:49.that the BBC do, so they won't get 40 million or whatever the BBC was

:11:50. > :11:55.getting. -- 14 million. Won just time to look at a terrific picture

:11:56. > :12:04.on the front page of the Times. It's a pitch of the Downing Street cat,

:12:05. > :12:05.Larry. Apparently, the mouse ran away and escapes and therefore the

:12:06. > :12:30.cat is obviously not very good. One of the photographers there in

:12:31. > :12:34.Downing Street of those the big battle between Theresa May Nicola

:12:35. > :12:44.Sturgeon, but of course, Larry the cat has stolen the limelight for a

:12:45. > :12:46.moment. Sometimes give his incriminating documents they

:12:47. > :12:49.shouldn't be displayed, but this is a beautiful photo. At the next time

:12:50. > :12:57.you're standing at Downing Street, you need to look for this mouse.

:12:58. > :13:00.Thank you both. Don't forget you can see the front

:13:01. > :13:05.pages of the papers online It's all there for you seven days

:13:06. > :13:08.a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. evening, you can watch it

:13:09. > :13:13.later on BBC iPlayer.
