:00:00. > :00:07.from witness statements and forensic evidence is that there was only

:00:08. > :00:09.attacker. We can take a quick look at the front pages of the morning

:00:10. > :00:12.newspapers now. With me are David Wooding,

:00:13. > :00:15.political editor of the Sun on Sunday, and Henry Mance,

:00:16. > :00:27.political correspondent The Daily Telegraph has managed to

:00:28. > :00:30.get the terror attack on its front page and the picture of that very

:00:31. > :00:38.well-known street with a police van parked across it. The timing of this

:00:39. > :00:46.is significant but also in some ways to be expected. Yes, then sometimes

:00:47. > :00:50.have an effect on elections and it remains to be seen what effect this

:00:51. > :00:56.will have. We have an early election coming up on the UK, so this will

:00:57. > :01:01.perhaps bring home the fact that we are living in a very dangerous era

:01:02. > :01:06.of terrorism, and I guess there will be a lot of security over here as

:01:07. > :01:13.well as in Paris. It seems that when eyewitnesses saw this car draw up

:01:14. > :01:19.and shots were fired, police were clearly the target here. For

:01:20. > :01:28.newspapers, the question is, how much attention to you give a story

:01:29. > :01:37.like this? Is it right to let that dominate the news agenda? That is

:01:38. > :01:39.the judgment to take. If it were an isolated incident, that judgment

:01:40. > :01:44.would potentially be very different, but France has had such a long

:01:45. > :01:50.period under the state of emergency that has been extended five times.

:01:51. > :01:55.It also brings home the fact that a Kalashnikov was used in this attack.

:01:56. > :01:57.This brings home the business of free movement across Europe and the

:01:58. > :02:03.suggestion that somebody had come over from Belgium, which is seen as

:02:04. > :02:11.a centre of terrorist activity in some respects, and in Britain we

:02:12. > :02:18.have not had that situation with guns yet because of the fact we have

:02:19. > :02:29.that stretch of water between ourselves and mainland Europe. Here,

:02:30. > :02:33.Theresa May commits to cutting migration to the tens of thousands.

:02:34. > :02:37.There is a suggestion she might ditch this has been too difficult

:02:38. > :02:45.but she still committed. There is a lot of the Cameron baggage that she

:02:46. > :02:48.has the opportunity to rectify. It is a new election manifesto and you

:02:49. > :02:53.do not get tied under the promises of the past, but David Cameron could

:02:54. > :02:57.never do this as Prime Minister and Theresa May never as Home Secretary.

:02:58. > :03:01.Net immigration is running much higher than government targets so we

:03:02. > :03:11.do not see a time frame for meeting those targets. We do not know

:03:12. > :03:17.exactly when. If Theresa May says something, she tries to see this

:03:18. > :03:23.through. She will be hostage to fortune. Brexit will make it easier

:03:24. > :03:28.for her to reach that target. One of the reasons we can't depend on the

:03:29. > :03:31.deal she will make, but people will regard this with scepticism because

:03:32. > :03:35.they promised seven years ago to reduce it to tens of thousands and

:03:36. > :03:39.failed miserably. She also said there would not be an election

:03:40. > :03:46.before 2020, and here we are. Sometimes you get get punished for

:03:47. > :03:54.breaking promises. Shall we have a quick look at another EU story? The

:03:55. > :04:00.Times, Britain told to keep EU laws, no deal unless Mae accepts rules on

:04:01. > :04:08.EU workers and security. We are starting to see demands from the 27

:04:09. > :04:12.member states. This is the boss of the European Parliament. We are

:04:13. > :04:17.leaving the European Union but they cannot stop meddling, can the? Now

:04:18. > :04:24.they are saying that, even after we have left the European Union,

:04:25. > :04:28.citizens, they will still have EU rights and will be able to uphold

:04:29. > :04:33.them with the European Court of Justice. Is it meddling to look

:04:34. > :04:39.after your citizens? If the citizens want to stay in Britain after we

:04:40. > :04:45.have left you, then one would expect them to be British citizens. If they

:04:46. > :04:49.remain here and abide by British rules. They do not have to be

:04:50. > :04:55.British citizens just to stay here. They will live on British soil but

:04:56. > :04:58.not member of the European Union, and to have the European Court of

:04:59. > :05:05.Justice having jurisdiction would cross that red line which Theresa

:05:06. > :05:14.May has said. But we have not come out of any of it yet. This was meant

:05:15. > :05:22.to be the easy bit. It will guarantee EU nationals' rights. What

:05:23. > :05:27.we are seeing here, it will be pretty tricky. There are hardline

:05:28. > :05:32.demand is there, tough negotiations, and the European court of justice...

:05:33. > :05:39.It would be a two tier citizenship. We have not even got round to this

:05:40. > :05:41.idea of associate membership. The president of the Parliament is

:05:42. > :05:49.saying you can change your mind is entirely the 1-2. There are other

:05:50. > :05:56.stories as well which we will try to take a look at at 11:30pm. We have a

:05:57. > :06:02.full hour of news with all the latest from Paris and a second paper

:06:03. > :06:04.review with our guests at 11:30pm. But let's pause for a second and

:06:05. > :06:09.take a look at the weather forecast.
