05/06/2017 The Papers

Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

With me are the political commentator, James Millar

a counter-terrorism chief refuses to confirm whether the attackers

were were already known to the police or intelligence services.

The FT focuses on Theresa May's plans to review existing police

and security powers, increase pressure on tech companies

and introduce tougher anti-terror laws.

The Telegraph claims counter-terrorism officers have been

monitoring an alleged extremist cell in Barking since March and secretly

recorded individuals plotting a van and knife attack in London.

Quoting Mrs May's phrase that "Enough is Enough",

the Express vows to support the Prime Minister's plans

for what it calls "tougher action on terrorists".

The Mail also leads with that quote from Mrs May, adding that

all of Britain was echoing her sentiments.

The Mirror leads with the heroes of last night.

It said policeman and members of the public fought off

the attackers with batons, chairs, glasses and their bare hands.

Police fired an "unprecedented" 50 bullets at the attackers to bring

them down within eight minutes, the Metro says.

And the i calls the police and public response "defiant"

The quote, "Enough is enough", on the front page is quite few

newspapers, including the FT and she vows of war on extremism but there

is no clarity on what that really means? The Financial Times says Mrs

May's responds marked a sharp escalation in rhetoric and actually

that is all anybody can do. We all agree enough is enough and something

has to be done but the question for Mrs May or for any politician is

what can you do? There are questions about what police knew, what

security services new but what can you do? We know young men sent to

prison are quite often coming out radicalised when they did not go in

radicalised so increasing jail terms does not seem like quite a good

idea... Before anybody climbs all over that,, that does not mean that

they should not be sent to prison. No, of course not, but there are

things like whether we go back to control orders, which we had now we

have the prevention of. ... The exclusion orders on people who have

been abroad and come back. What the public will probably find unsettling

is that in this attack and the attack in Manchester two weeks ago,

people claimed to have reported their neighbours all the

perpetrators. We do not know. -- or. I think there has to be a bit of a

PR exercise to save we are following these but look at the scale. The

police, the authorities, contrary to what American media believe happens

in our country, we do go along with what they ask but do not report

everything because it could compromise the investigation. We saw

the aftermath of the Manchester attack, the Americans willing to

share everything was only when they should not have done. The FT story,

Donald Trump talking of rhetoric... Said he criticised the Mayor of

London for sane people not to be worried. It took that out of context

saying that Sadiq Khan said people should not be alarmed. I'd should

could drop shot for calling the US President what you did. You know I

have a job to do. The Guardian, again the quote from Theresa May,

"Enough is enough". A few things to discuss, notably the photograph

appearing on a few front pages. But arresting, no pun intended, not the

kind of thing that we are used to seeing but the other story on the

front page, Labour attacks PM for presiding over cuts to police. We

are now on to Monday so the election campaign is officially back on. A

slightly odd one. The Guardian says critics have accused the Prime

Minister of politicising the atrocity and the next paragraph

Jeremy Corbyn saying may implemented 20,000 police cards. There are

questions to be answered about police cuts but two were those cuts

have fallen and how much they would have impacted on this because anti-

terror police are quite well off. Of course if you do not have bobbies on

the beat to spot the first signs then... We have not had bobbies on

the beat for quite a long time. You can always have more resources but

resources going into this sort of terrorism has to be much more

Internet based. It is not necessarily about walking the

street. I am sure it is a mixture of both. But it is about listening and

infiltrating an interesting that Jeremy Corbyn to the campaign last

night, Sunday night. Nobody should be making political capital out of

these but we are three days away from an election. It raises this

question of suspending the campaign. After Manchester it was suspended

for four days. This time 24 hours. Ukip did not observe that

suspension. Was it the right decision? It is hard to say. But

there is an election this week so you cannot suspend campaign. In the

Telegraph, YouTube link to the terror attack. Officers recorded a

cell talking about how to use a fan to attack London. Basically similar

to the same thing that happened on Saturday. Is it the same plot? A

year not entirely sure. It is not cover where you chip 15 but it fits

into the idea that the Prime Minister has put out that the

Internet has to be policed and clamped down. Sites like YouTube

need to be more if. You get into the argument of what is free speech,

what is hate speech? Absolutely. She raised it at the G7 and there are

people within the industry beginning to address it but it is impossible

to police. It is a monster that is created because it just keeps

growing and whatever you do to police, there is a dark Web where

people can find things. People will talk about free speech and

censorship. What you have to do is somehow or rather get to these

people who are not representative of Islam or any religion or political

cause, they are people who are incredibly disturbed and intent on

evil. Yet to be careful of focusing on the Internet too much. I do

journalists so I am cynical about what goes on on the Internet. The

has to be some sort of human interaction as well. Yes,

persuading... It is easy to bleed into the Internet when there are

other parts of the puzzle. This is the picture of the two attackers

when... Assuming at this point that have been shot by police who arrived

so incredibly quickly, and we then eight minute they were dead. For the

people involved those eight minutes must have felt like hours and hours

but it is incredible because we know but it is incredible because we know

there are more armed police on the street and visible but they are also

working on the periphery but to come and to deal with it like that and,

as we know now, these were fake suicide bombs before the officers

involved they must have thought they were really charged. The venture has

a close-up version of that same photograph. Police fire 50 bullets

which is set to be unprecedented to cut short the terror rampage. You'll

be skidding about the use of a photograph like that? It is The

Metro, a free paper all over buses and trains in London and lots of

people, including children, will see it. It also gives the attention

profile, often with the sort of attacks they are carried out to

achieve a profile. The comparison is high school shootings in America

where there was a spate of them because every time what happened,

the person who did it, invariably male, was put on the front pageant

sometime he became an outlaw, an era to people simile disturbed and they

saw they could get their own five minutes. The media looked at how

that my have been responsible for some of those attacks and pull back

on the coverage. Last night, there were people on social media saying

why are you giving these people are the oxygen of publicity but we have

to report the story. Nothing will go on the BBC radio or television

without being weighed up and conceded. Hopefully. Broadcasting is

much more regulated than newspapers. The problem I think comes back to

the free-speech and the Internet, is that people who are taking these

photographs - we do not know if they are from professional journalists

all of the public - but editors sometimes not as strict as they used

to be in saying, actually, we're not going to publish that just because

it is all over social media does not make it acceptable for our readers.

I completely agree with James. It is a free paper. In the corner, a

picture of Ariana Grande, a joyful reaction to this, why not put a

picture of her on the front. an bully can she seemed. I heard her

singing somewhere over the rainbow, which was amazing. I am familiar

because I have a young daughter. The Daily Star, no trouble with this

front page. This is a photograph that is a very

good photojournalistic front-page. It has real people, it has the

journalist, Jeff Ho and Gerard, who have become celebrities really,

three girls at the Ariana Grande concert in Manchester and then the

emergency services that do all this stuff all the time and keep doing

all a brilliant job. There's all sorts of words that get bandied

around, nobody ever uses the word cowed except after a terrorist

attack, heroes could also be applied, these people, the

ambulance, the police, they are genuine heroes, they ran to war

space... While telling everyone else to runaway. -- towards this. There

are stories who were caught up in this, the eight minutes must have

felt like Florida, waiters, waitresses, bar staff, customers,

people instinctively to do the right thing -- felt like for ever.

Amazing. The Daily Express, exclusive picture of the attackers

walking through Borough Market. Presuming this is after they abandon

the van. Then they are in Borough Market. They are walking calmly.

They aren't running. They looked like three blokes walking along the

road and from the earlier eyewitness reports, after having jumped out of

the van... It is the Express who will support the Prime Minister on

her tougher action on terrorists, whatever that might mean. Will

strangely one of the interesting words here is the van mounted the

pavement, that is the kind of thing that will be thought about at the

very bottom level of this, raising pavements, how do you change the

street verges so you can't get a van onto the pavement to run people over

and hopefully the action will spread up to Prevent and what happens in

government. We've already seen it in Westminster long before this with

the cordons and the much stricter access in Downing Street. I'm sure

they're thinking about that already. How do you protect every road? All

of the arteries across the river, it is such a difficult job. It's not

just London, as we know, from Manchester, or Paris, or Nice.

Munich, everywhere! Let's have a look at the i, finally, another

pictures pictures of these armed police officers, and a dog, coming

down the escalators, so incredibly heavily armed. Like something out of

a movie, it really is, will we aren't used to seeing that in this

country thankfully. Defiant is the word, it has been used quite a lot

this weekend. It has. On the front page also pictures of the young

girls at the concert in Manchester, they are equally defiant as the guys

in the main picture because they made a choice, they were caught up

in something horrific and they made a choice to go out and go to a

concert and they won't be cowed. A concert that would normally take

months to prepare. It is extraordinary. All of those stars

who cleared their diaries and made sure they were there. It is great.

These are predominantly younger else, young people who will have

been incredibly upset and affected by everything that happened

understandably and I think that this... For them it will be part of

the healing process to use that term, but that is more important

than defiance. It is going back to... It is the power of pop music,

which is nonsense most of the time, but for these girls it means

something to them and it helps them. Pop music's Craik. Ariana Grande,

23. She is a great moral model! -- pop music's great. That's it for the

papers. Don't go anywhere. Don't forget all the front pages are

online at the website where you can read a detailed review of the

papers, there seven days a week. We are there as well. Each night's

edition is posted shortly after we finish and of course it is on

iPlayer. Thank you very much, nice to see you.
