:00:09. > :00:14.We'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment.

:00:15. > :00:20.The head of Europol, the EU's law-enforcement agency,

:00:21. > :00:23.has warned that the start of the week could reveal

:00:24. > :00:26.more victims of this weekend's global cyberattack.

:00:27. > :00:28.The largest nursing union, the Royal College of Nursing,

:00:29. > :00:31.will stage a "summer of protest" over the Government's

:00:32. > :00:36.The new French President Emmanuel Macron has been sworn

:00:37. > :00:42.In his inaugural address, he said the country was on the verge

:00:43. > :00:57.Labour has pledged a Robin Hood tax on financial transactions to raise

:00:58. > :01:04.billions for public services if elected. The Conservatives have

:01:05. > :01:06.criticised it as a total shambles. It goes to the magnificent seven

:01:07. > :01:11.Lancashire. A winning night for happy Valley at

:01:12. > :01:24.the BAFTAs, at one best drama and its star one the lead actress award.

:01:25. > :01:27.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be

:01:28. > :01:33.With me are Rob Merrick, deputy political editor at The Independent,

:01:34. > :01:38.and the broadcaster and author Natalie Haynes.

:01:39. > :01:44.The i says the Prime Minister is to make a pitch to Labour voters

:01:45. > :01:47.by boosting the living wage and guaranteeing EU labour laws.

:01:48. > :01:50.The Telegraph reports that the Conservatives' workplace

:01:51. > :01:53.promises will include a legal right to take time off work

:01:54. > :02:01.A similar lead on workers' rights for the Express.

:02:02. > :02:07.The Daily Mail says it will be the biggest ever expansion of workers'

:02:08. > :02:09.rights. A similar lead on workers'

:02:10. > :02:12.rights for the Express. They call Mrs May's

:02:13. > :02:22.promises "revolutionary". It says they are battling for

:02:23. > :02:27.working-class votes, and Jeremy Corbyn will take a million people of

:02:28. > :02:33.NHS waiting lists by 2020. The Times has the same top story on

:02:34. > :02:37.the Prime Minister, and a report on the global cyber attack. It says

:02:38. > :02:39.Jeremy Hunt was warned about poor NHS cybersecurity last summer.

:02:40. > :02:42.The Metro has the latest on last week's global cyberattack.

:02:43. > :02:44.It has a warning for people returning to work to

:02:45. > :02:58.The Sun reports that Ian Brady is close to death.

:02:59. > :03:06.Thankfully, you will be doing most of the talking! Let's start with the

:03:07. > :03:10.election campaign, and the Telegraph, workers get leave to care

:03:11. > :03:15.for elderly, the Conservative manifesto to boost employees' right

:03:16. > :03:20.and tackle the social care crisis. An acceptance that there are so many

:03:21. > :03:22.people in the country who do have caring responsibilities and often

:03:23. > :03:27.find it difficult to work while doing it. This is the latest attempt

:03:28. > :03:31.by the Prime Minister to march on to Labour turf, we have had energy

:03:32. > :03:36.prices, help with housing, and a protection of workers' rights. Part

:03:37. > :03:41.of the announcement is to protect the rights that workers have,

:03:42. > :03:45.because we are members of the EU, that they will survive. But the

:03:46. > :03:54.Telegraph has gone with the aspect of the package that refers to caring

:03:55. > :03:59.for relatives. They think that is the bit that will appeal most to

:04:00. > :04:03.their readers. Part of the package will be something along the lines of

:04:04. > :04:08.maternity rights, rated power for workers to ask for time off to care

:04:09. > :04:13.for relatives. An important aspect is that people will not be paid. It

:04:14. > :04:19.says here that there will be no payment. The first thing you think

:04:20. > :04:23.is, how much help will it be for the average person who may not be edited

:04:24. > :04:27.take time off, however sick their relative is? Their job would be held

:04:28. > :04:31.open for them, and some of these measures will have a cost to

:04:32. > :04:37.employers. That is true, although it is difficult to imagine what it

:04:38. > :04:43.would be like if you were at a point in your life when you had one or

:04:44. > :04:47.more elderly parents and you had to guess at what point they had less

:04:48. > :04:52.than a year left to go, because presumably if you only have this

:04:53. > :04:57.option for a year and your infant parent lasts for 18 months, at no

:04:58. > :05:02.point really want to have to say that the list they are, I have to go

:05:03. > :05:08.to work now. It does not sound like an enviable position for the 6

:05:09. > :05:12.million people, the Telegraph says, who act as unpaid carers, a third

:05:13. > :05:17.spend more than 50 hours a week looking after their loved ones, more

:05:18. > :05:21.than a full-time job. I don't see how you could possibly be expected

:05:22. > :05:25.to make those decisions. It is a start, but it is not much. But it

:05:26. > :05:31.pales into insignificance prepared with the statue right of two weeks

:05:32. > :05:37.off for paid child bereavement leave, which is how long it would

:05:38. > :05:41.not take to get over losing a child. It is a start, it is more than

:05:42. > :05:50.hammer the people -- I wonder how hammer the people -- I wonder how

:05:51. > :05:54.many people will take advantage of it if they are not going to get

:05:55. > :05:58.paid, but it is a not in the right direction. Other papers will look at

:05:59. > :06:08.workers' rights being protected as we leave the EU. Workers offered new

:06:09. > :06:10.deal by Tories, how new is this? Not new at all, even the Conservatives

:06:11. > :06:15.might be surprised at how much coverage they have got on the front

:06:16. > :06:18.pages with the announcement, the cost of Prime Minister said it

:06:19. > :06:24.before she became Prime Minister. People do not pay attention, you

:06:25. > :06:30.have! That is why you are here! You have been training for this! It is

:06:31. > :06:35.significant. One of the things that many Conservatives would want to do

:06:36. > :06:40.when we leave is to embark on the race to the bottom and ripped up

:06:41. > :06:43.workers' rights, and here is the Prime Minister taking a different

:06:44. > :06:49.stance, they will be protected. The working time directive is something

:06:50. > :06:53.that some Conservatives have spoken out about before, and it alleged

:06:54. > :06:57.effect on behalf of service, the right to ask for a limited number of

:06:58. > :07:05.hours. Another thing somebody might say is that Theresa May's Government

:07:06. > :07:15.impacted on trade unions' ability to strike. The rights for workers do

:07:16. > :07:19.not seem to extend to trade union rights in terms of strikes. But

:07:20. > :07:26.taking back our own laws, but not the EEC rules over Labour rights,

:07:27. > :07:31.they are quite good, it would appear. It is interesting, having

:07:32. > :07:35.complained. Blog about the burden of EU legislation under which we have

:07:36. > :07:39.been toiling, it turns out we would like some of it to stay so that

:07:40. > :07:46.people can have the exact same rights that they had before. What is

:07:47. > :07:52.interesting from our perspective, I have not had a job since the 1990s,

:07:53. > :07:57.so I cannot imagine what it is like having sick leave or holiday pay or

:07:58. > :08:01.anything, and there are huge buzz of people like me who are on the gig

:08:02. > :08:05.economy, as I believe it is described, and there is a kid there

:08:06. > :08:09.might be more right coming through for those of us who are freelance,

:08:10. > :08:12.who work from home, which would be interesting, because we have never

:08:13. > :08:17.had such a thing, and we cannot envisage it. He did not arrive

:08:18. > :08:25.tonight having delivered pizzas or anything like that! Heaven help me!

:08:26. > :08:28.That would be a proper job! I didn't think you get a free mopeds, you

:08:29. > :08:35.probably have to pay to rent the mopeds. There has been so much work

:08:36. > :08:42.done and thought given to when an employee is an employee rather than

:08:43. > :08:48.a freelancer. It is a huge issue. It is, and I choose to be freelance, I

:08:49. > :08:51.like my job, and I get to do it, and it is mostly fun, but a lot of

:08:52. > :08:55.people would prefer to have a proper job, with holiday pay and sick pay

:08:56. > :09:00.and maternity leave and all of those things, and they are not high

:09:01. > :09:09.profile things to want, they are quite ordinary. It is an interesting

:09:10. > :09:13.point that Reza May came in and said she wanted to be there for the just

:09:14. > :09:17.about managing families, but this looks like this is the thing that

:09:18. > :09:20.she is quite passionate about, and it is hard to tell when everybody

:09:21. > :09:26.just repeats the same words over and over again, but this might be what

:09:27. > :09:33.actual real-life Theresa May cares about, people with jobs. She is

:09:34. > :09:38.sticking to this, so how does Labour argued against it and say it is not

:09:39. > :09:43.a good idea? They will point out that the Conservative record in the

:09:44. > :09:48.past... They were cast out on the Bittman. The Tories will be

:09:49. > :09:53.committed to it. When we leave the EU and lose the trade arrangements

:09:54. > :09:57.that we currently have, Britain will have to find a cutting edge in a

:09:58. > :10:01.different way to compete, and many Conservatives will say to rip up

:10:02. > :10:06.regulation is the way to do that, to cut taxes and cut regulation, and

:10:07. > :10:10.she will protect the rights of workers, and I would imagine there

:10:11. > :10:15.are many Conservatives who are not happy about that. The Metro looking

:10:16. > :10:19.at the cyber attack and what might happen tomorrow. Crippling bug could

:10:20. > :10:25.be lurking in your inbox. This happened on Friday around the world.

:10:26. > :10:28.A lot of people will come into work and put their computers on tomorrow

:10:29. > :10:33.for the first time since it struck. And it would be best if they clicked

:10:34. > :10:37.on nothing at all, and they are completely sure of what it is. I

:10:38. > :10:42.cannot emphasise this enough, do not click on it. If it looks like a

:10:43. > :10:46.weird attachment or if it is from somebody you do not normally hear

:10:47. > :10:51.from, or you were not expecting a link, do not click on it. Big about

:10:52. > :10:56.it, take a capacity, you did not need to start at a run, and

:10:57. > :10:59.everybody slowdown, look hard at the things you touch before you touch

:11:00. > :11:07.them, because otherwise chaos will Bentiu. The problem with this is you

:11:08. > :11:13.do not even have to do anything for it to have infected the system. It

:11:14. > :11:19.could start all over again and rippling out tomorrow. Any decent

:11:20. > :11:25.employer should have sent in the IT people over the weekend to sort it

:11:26. > :11:29.out. We can't have that confidence. You would have thought they would

:11:30. > :11:31.have spent the weekend. The Microsoft president says it is a

:11:32. > :11:35.wake-up call for the Government of the world, because we have been

:11:36. > :11:41.telling them for a long time they need to use the patches. It is sweet

:11:42. > :11:46.of them to make it everyone else's fault, given it a specialty system,

:11:47. > :11:50.and they have retained the highbrow, they said, we did say it was

:11:51. > :11:56.rubbish! You did still sell it for cash money. Well done, then, for

:11:57. > :12:03.having the high ground. You read at the headline of the times, they

:12:04. > :12:07.reported as an election issue, because the Government seems bang to

:12:08. > :12:12.rights. They refused to pay Microsoft to continue to support

:12:13. > :12:19.Windows XP when they said they were no longer going to do that, there

:12:20. > :12:23.was a short-term contract, and that has increased the risk in the NHS,

:12:24. > :12:33.which was the thing that concerns most people. I have read that our

:12:34. > :12:38.Trident nuclear missiles work on Windows XP. Really? You can only

:12:39. > :12:43.hope they are being patched up better than the health service.

:12:44. > :12:50.Let's look at the Independent, a striking photograph on the front,

:12:51. > :12:56.French Renaissance. In that parade, as he was inaugurated at a lavish

:12:57. > :13:03.ceremony, promising a cultural and economic renaissance in France, but

:13:04. > :13:09.also wanting reform of the EU. He is off to see Angela Merkel. Two

:13:10. > :13:15.interesting aspect, jetting off to see Angela Merkel, and it emphasises

:13:16. > :13:22.the central bond in the EU that remains the German/ French axis. It

:13:23. > :13:26.is that axis that is about to be waged against us when these

:13:27. > :13:31.negotiations start. The other reminder that it is not all about

:13:32. > :13:35.Brexit, because when he is in Germany, he will ask for German

:13:36. > :13:39.help, because the German economy is stronger than the French economy, he

:13:40. > :13:44.wants Germany to find a way of bailing France out. That reminds us

:13:45. > :13:49.that it is not all about Brexit for other EU countries. Where will the

:13:50. > :13:53.reform come from, and how many members will want meaningful reform?

:13:54. > :13:58.David Cameron would have liked to have heard about that. I imagine he

:13:59. > :14:02.is sitting in his shed thinking, this sounds even if familiar,

:14:03. > :14:12.jotting down a few notes in his memoir. Shepherd's had. I am

:14:13. > :14:18.contracting that into shed. I think the chances of Angela Merkel folding

:14:19. > :14:22.and setting, yes, let's just have Germany bailed you out, don't worry,

:14:23. > :14:28.though problem, the pretty slender. The Germans have been the greatest

:14:29. > :14:36.winners of the Eurozone, and I doubt they are keen to go, let's share

:14:37. > :14:40.that are found, don't mind. What I find interesting in this picture is

:14:41. > :14:44.how much it reminds me of a Roman triumph. Look how high he is, I can

:14:45. > :14:50.not help that belief one of these men flanking him is whispering,

:14:51. > :14:56.remember you are mortal. The horses, the helmets, the plumes, I see that

:14:57. > :15:01.the motorbikes are not fully Roman, but it reminds me of imperial times.

:15:02. > :15:12.It looked spectacular. We talked about pomp and ceremony over here.

:15:13. > :15:18.We have a coach. With a cream in it. When the state opening happens, the

:15:19. > :15:24.Queen is practically coming on the bus, the carriage is being used for

:15:25. > :15:33.something else. What else have they got? Never mind. The Daily

:15:34. > :15:39.Telegraph, the absolutely fabulous, Joanna's a jolly good fellow.

:15:40. > :15:43.Marvellous that she has got a fellowship of BAFTA for all of her

:15:44. > :15:48.lifetime work. We celebrate how excellent she is as an actor and as

:15:49. > :15:51.a comic actor, and we do not celebrate how good she is at

:15:52. > :15:57.designing bridges. That is controversial to end on.

:15:58. > :16:00.We are back again at 11:30pm, and I am back with the main stories at

:16:01. > :16:09.11pm. Michel Faber's success has come

:16:10. > :16:13.with some long books,
