:00:13. > :00:15.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
:00:16. > :00:17.With me are Henry Mance, Political Correspondent
:00:18. > :00:29.For the first time, enjoying his momentous day, the first appearance
:00:30. > :00:30.on the Tapers! It's supposed to be fun!
:00:31. > :00:34.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with...
:00:35. > :00:37.The Telegraph reports jubilation as Article 50 was triggered,
:00:38. > :00:40.but it reports immediate tension between Britain and Brussels.
:00:41. > :00:42.The Metro reports on the Prime Minister's warning that failure
:00:43. > :00:45.to reach a deal with the EU within the two-year time limit
:00:46. > :00:48.could "weaken" cooperation in the fight against
:00:49. > :00:50.crime and terrorism. The FT says Theresa May's letter
:00:51. > :00:53.was seen in Brussels as conciliatory and flexible.
:00:54. > :00:55.The Mirror reports on the tension, with Germany's Angela Merkel
:00:56. > :01:00.rejecting an early start to talks on a new trade deal.
:01:01. > :01:15.The i has a picture of Britain's ambassador handing over the Article
:01:16. > :01:17.And Nigel Farage beams from the front of the Express
:01:18. > :01:29.on security cooperation were seen by many in Brussels as blackmail.
:01:30. > :01:31.And Nigel Farage beams from the front of the Express
:01:32. > :01:47.Beginning with the Express, he looks very happy. No turning back on EU
:01:48. > :01:52.exit, 2316 days after the Express started its historic crusade to free
:01:53. > :01:56.Britain from Brussels, Theresa May insists there is no turning back.
:01:57. > :02:00.Caroline, this is your sister paper. They have said this several times,
:02:01. > :02:05.once we get going we are not going to change our minds, and Theresa May
:02:06. > :02:09.said the same. What they are drawing attention to is that the Daily
:02:10. > :02:15.Express and to a lesser extent the Sunday Express really led the agenda
:02:16. > :02:19.on Brexit. If you look at that 2316 days, that is eight years plus it
:02:20. > :02:23.has taken them and they have been calling for the withdrawal of the UK
:02:24. > :02:28.from the EU from all of that period of time. Today they see this as
:02:29. > :02:32.being in momentous occasion. We are scratching our heads and wondering
:02:33. > :02:35.what changes today other than the fact that those divorce papers in
:02:36. > :02:39.effect have been delivered to the EU. This is the day we are all going
:02:40. > :02:52.to Mark, some people are calling it Brexit date. You know, fair play,
:02:53. > :02:55.campaigns are what newspapers live and die by and this has been a very
:02:56. > :03:00.successful campaign by the Daily Express which culminated in that
:03:01. > :03:05.vote on the 23rd of June. Henry, let's talk about the Daily
:03:06. > :03:08.Telegraph, it says it is a magnificent moment, an interesting
:03:09. > :03:11.choice of photographs that have appeared on various papers, some of
:03:12. > :03:16.them showing that moment that the letter was handed over. Others
:03:17. > :03:21.showing Donald Tusk and Sir Tim heading in other directions. It was
:03:22. > :03:27.an interesting performance by Donald Tusk. He is not a big federalist,
:03:28. > :03:31.not the kind of Eurocrat that you might think of, like Jean-Claude
:03:32. > :03:35.Junker or someone. His tone was a slightly sad one. The photos on the
:03:36. > :03:41.Telegraph suggest that, even if the headline is triumphant, Boris
:03:42. > :03:46.He has written a piece, it is time He has written a piece, it is time
:03:47. > :03:51.to back Britain and go lowball. It is very positive. We were just
:03:52. > :03:54.reading it. -- go global. We are going to blast off for an
:03:55. > :04:00.extraordinary voyage. He talks about it being historic and, as I see it,
:04:01. > :04:05.a magnificent moment. We can only see some of his comment piece, but
:04:06. > :04:08.he looks more balanced towards the end, acknowledging that not
:04:09. > :04:13.everybody in the country is voting for Brexit. He talks about what we
:04:14. > :04:17.do now in terms of pulling together and kind of achieving this great
:04:18. > :04:21.moment is future for the country. The i treats us to goodbye in many
:04:22. > :04:25.of the languages that are spoken across the European Union. I won't
:04:26. > :04:28.even attempt to pronounce some of them! There we have the picture of
:04:29. > :04:34.the moment that the letter was handed over to Donald Tusk, as
:04:35. > :04:40.talking for three hours. I was talking for three hours. I was
:04:41. > :04:43.impressed. It marked a week since the terrorist attack advertisements
:04:44. > :04:49.do. It was a really strange occasion this afternoon. Theresa May took
:04:50. > :04:53.questions from 113 MPs. Some of them are in the papers. She also went on
:04:54. > :04:59.to do interviews afterwards. It was quite an exhausting start to two
:05:00. > :05:01.years of negotiations. Onto your paper, the Financial Times. Donald
:05:02. > :05:09.Tusk again looking forlorn at one point. He said, we are missing you
:05:10. > :05:13.already. Do you think? We seem to relish the theatre of it. Did they
:05:14. > :05:19.have the handover this letter in full view of all the cameras was
:05:20. > :05:23.white of course they did, surely! They hand delivered it, they sent it
:05:24. > :05:27.was quite theatrical. There has been was quite theatrical. There has been
:05:28. > :05:31.lots of this, talking about missing you already, the Treaty of Rome
:05:32. > :05:35.celebrations overshadowing the negative, Jean-Claude Junker talking
:05:36. > :05:40.about it being a tragedy, how he was heartbroken that the UK weren't
:05:41. > :05:45.there to celebrate with them. It is more of that kind of narrative. You
:05:46. > :05:50.have written a sketch piece here called, dear Europe. Such letters
:05:51. > :05:55.have a tainted history. What are you comparing this to? This has a couple
:05:56. > :06:00.of references, one to Neville Chamberlain's message to Adolf
:06:01. > :06:03.Hitler, a personal message. And also the nobleman surrounding Henry VIII,
:06:04. > :06:08.trying to ask for an annulment to his marriage from the Pope. This is
:06:09. > :06:12.a very current situation and we have moved on but we don't always seek
:06:13. > :06:15.the world from the point of view of Europe. Both Neville Chamberlain and
:06:16. > :06:18.Henry VIII were very optimistic about what they could achieve just
:06:19. > :06:24.by writing to Europe and get their way. It is going to be wrote tough
:06:25. > :06:28.and there are going to be things that they don't like. We were told
:06:29. > :06:32.at one point this letter was consolatory and shows that civility
:06:33. > :06:36.and yet there are tensions emerging already, as you would expect. The
:06:37. > :06:40.papers have picked up on this notion that what Theresa May is in effect
:06:41. > :06:43.saying is that, while we want to have a kind of nice divorce, a Team
:06:44. > :06:49.Zoeller to divorce, at the end of the day we have something that they
:06:50. > :06:53.want, which is that we are a key player in Europol and we have a much
:06:54. > :06:56.more significant security service and we play a huge role in the
:06:57. > :07:01.fighting of crime and terrorism across Europe. That point was made
:07:02. > :07:05.very much on the Daily Mirror. Brexit battle begins, trading blows,
:07:06. > :07:11.security threat to EU if UK cannot secure a deal. Theresa May did not
:07:12. > :07:15.make many speeches in the run-up to the referendum, but she did talk
:07:16. > :07:19.about the importance of the EU and our relationship for security. Would
:07:20. > :07:23.she do anything that brilliant danger the lives of British
:07:24. > :07:27.citizens? I think it's unlikely, but this is a negotiation and you have
:07:28. > :07:32.to pretend you are willing. The counterargument is, why not show
:07:33. > :07:35.some goodwill? Why not say, we definitely won't put in danger
:07:36. > :07:40.European lives, British lives, given what has happened in Brussels, Paris
:07:41. > :07:43.and London. Let's talk about the Westminster attacks which you
:07:44. > :07:49.mentioned, back on the i. Thousands joined hands as the inquests hear
:07:50. > :07:53.how they die. A week on ordinarily from that her attacks it would have
:07:54. > :08:01.featured much more. But because of the timing of it it is only an very
:08:02. > :08:05.few of the front pages. But again, it is extraordinary that this only
:08:06. > :08:07.happened one week ago. It really struck me, being there today, that
:08:08. > :08:11.it was just one week ago, because we it was just one week ago, because we
:08:12. > :08:15.were all there last Wednesday. In a funny way, you know, the whole
:08:16. > :08:18.Brexit thing has overshadowed the attack story today in the same way
:08:19. > :08:23.that the attack massively overshadowed what the Goverment's
:08:24. > :08:35.was expecting to be a full one week leading up into Brexit being
:08:36. > :08:38.launched, certainly in the Sunday newspapers we pencilled in that it
:08:39. > :08:41.would be a Brexit splash across the board, aeons of pages on Brexit on
:08:42. > :08:43.Sunday, but actually what we did was beyond the pages on the para packs
:08:44. > :08:45.instead. The notion that everybody was in that packed chamber today,
:08:46. > :08:49.there was no room for anybody else to get in, as you say, more than 100
:08:50. > :08:52.MPs actually spoke. They were sat in the chamber where they have been
:08:53. > :08:57.locked for five hours just one week ago. I mean, it seems... It was
:08:58. > :09:01.reminiscent of when Jo Cox was murdered. We had a very sombre day
:09:02. > :09:06.in the House of Commons, and then a few days later you could remember,
:09:07. > :09:13.given how fierce the debate had become. And here it is, if events
:09:14. > :09:17.take their course and these guys are very busy now. It was the point they
:09:18. > :09:21.made after the terrorist attacks. You know, as much as this was a
:09:22. > :09:25.terrible shock for those there are, ultimately it is the seat of
:09:26. > :09:28.democracy and life must go on. We cannot let the terrorists stop this
:09:29. > :09:33.very important occasions and discussions that politicians are
:09:34. > :09:36.having about the very future of this country on the future of the country
:09:37. > :09:40.inside and outside of European Union. What is obvious is that the
:09:41. > :09:48.police of course and many members the public haven't forgotten that it
:09:49. > :09:52.was one week on and did turn out. I think there are still questions to
:09:53. > :09:55.be asked about the attacker, about the impact it has on community
:09:56. > :09:59.relations, what happens to Westminster security. Those things
:10:00. > :10:04.are happening in the background. Jeremy Corbyn as the Prime Minister,
:10:05. > :10:12.are you sure the police have the resources, given the cuts that
:10:13. > :10:18.happens to budgets? It literally was the thing before dinner, we were
:10:19. > :10:22.waiting from the historic announcement. Contrary to the trail
:10:23. > :10:28.we showed before we came on air, we will be back with a much longer
:10:29. > :10:31.review, 24 minutes Rob tells me, at 11:30pm. A bumper edition! Coming up
:10:32. > :10:44.next, the weather. Hello there, good evening. The winds
:10:45. > :10:50.are more from the south. That drags up some warm air to achieve high
:10:51. > :10:51.temperatures we need some sunshine. There wasn't a great deal of that
