we'll bring you the political leaders in Northern Ireland debating | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
with each other, in front of a studio audience. | :00:00. | :00:18. | |
Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what tomorrow | :00:19. | :00:20. | |
With me are Kate Proctor, Political Correspondent | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
at The London Evening Standard and the broadcaster, | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
The Financial Times leads with Theresa May's | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
anticipated tour of marginal Labour-held constituencies, | :00:32. | :00:33. | |
on the last day of campaigning on Wednesday. | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
The i has an image of the Australian nurse | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
who was killed in the London Bridge attack after she ran to help those | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
The Metro has as its main story has Theresa May | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
ramping up her anti-terror rhetoric two days before the election. | :00:50. | :00:56. | |
The Guardian also reports on Theresa May's promise | :00:57. | :00:58. | |
that she is ready to change human rights laws, if they stop | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
the government from tackling the threat from terrorism | :01:02. | :01:03. | |
while the Times says that MI5 ignored a warning | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
from the Italian authorities, that one of the London Bridge | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
attackers "wanted to be a terrorist". | :01:12. | :01:13. | |
Italian-Moroccan Youseff Zaghba was placed on an international watch | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
The Daily Mirror reports that British authorities were warned | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
of Zaghba after he tried to flee Italy to fight in Syria. | :01:23. | :01:31. | |
We start with the election, first. One day to go, 24 hours, a hell of a | :01:32. | :01:43. | |
lot at stake, and the Conservatives firmly believe that they can get | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
some of those votes hiding up there in the north? It looks that way, or | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
it is an indication that she relies on it is a tight race engineer to do | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
everything including going to the labour heartlands. -- Labour. Her | :01:58. | :02:06. | |
hope is that a month is Labour supporters are some who just don't | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
like Jeremy Corbyn. I suppose that is a bigger factor now, given the | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
tenors that he is getting. Also UKIP, how many voted for them? 4 | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
million? Many were historically Labour supporters, and 20 UKIP. Now | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
she would hope to Saturn back from UKIP and from Labour. So a lot to | :02:27. | :02:29. | |
play for. -- snatch them back. Kate, play for. -- snatch them back. Kate, | :02:30. | :02:36. | |
that these areas that be considered as will be campaigning in tomorrow, | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
they are largely Leave areas? That is right. She has done Yorkshire. | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
She has done Wales. She has gone to all those traditional Labour Brexit | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
seats. It shows, really, how keen she is. And to actually get our | :02:55. | :03:00. | |
vote. It is the ultimate in plastering. If you go to a Labour | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
seat that has an 8000 majority, you really are showing that you mean | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
business in the final days of your campaign. She did this in the | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
beginning, then had a lull after the dementia tax went so badly for her. | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
But she has gone straight back to her beginning campaign tactic, which | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
was to get these massive majorities and put back and message out there. | :03:28. | :03:36. | |
Dementia tax, Winter fuel allowances, means testing, all those | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
issues that have perhaps hit the very core of the Conservative Party | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
and her voters, potentially, you would expect, that is all behind her | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
now? That is how I said because I think she is so on security. And it | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
is not just that. I think this stage in the game and in the context of | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
what has happened, I think security is one of the strongest things that | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
she has. But also Brexit in the economy is also so wrapped up | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
together, those two issues. Who will be the strongest? Who will give | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
Bystrom 's financial future. I think those issues, social care, the | :04:15. | :04:22. | |
winter fuel allowance, these are only. -- who will give us the best | :04:23. | :04:31. | |
financial future. In a sense, it has been helpful because she has moved | :04:32. | :04:37. | |
from some sticky subject. When her opinion polls went from very high | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
too, you know... There is no denying it has been a bumpy ride photo. But | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
the position that we're in now, considering what has happened, I | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
think security will pull ahead as the key issue. But a lot of people | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
firmly believe that Jeremy Corbyn's views on this, especially when it | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
comes to police numbers, are important. And for them, tip the | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
balance towards the Labour Party. Especially as Theresa May was Home | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
Secretary at a time when police numbers were cut. By nearly 20,000. | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
You talk to most police officers these days and they will say it has | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
an impact. That is the first age of intelligence. Walking around, | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
picking of information, seeing things, passing on, et cetera. With | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
20,000 as police doing that, it will be... It will be tricky, why did? On | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
the front page of the Guardian, Kate, Theresa May threatens to | :05:33. | :05:37. | |
dismantle human rights laws in the wake of these terror attacks. And | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
you want to do this while ago. -- and she wanted to do this a while | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
ago. She says that these laws impede the ability of the British | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
Parliament or the Home Secretary to get rid of undesirables. That is | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
having the G7 's Home Secretary. She said she felt hamstrung by the | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
European convention on human rights. I think it is a mate, there is a | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
direction of travel, anyway. -- that is what she said when she was Home | :06:06. | :06:17. | |
Secretary. It is a punchy thing to say. It is possibly the right thing | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
to say because people want to hear today. To think this has come from | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
nowhere would be misguided. This is in Theresa May has been interested | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
in for a long time. She has not had to dismantle European laws to | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
toughen up on these laws in our country. We have these things called | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
control orders. The Labour Party introduced that. These are used | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
sometimes and restrict people's movements and allow the authorities | :06:45. | :06:48. | |
to monitor them. And I suspect that what she is hinting at the night is | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
a return to, or rather to beef up, please orders. How you do that with | :06:55. | :07:03. | |
the resources we have got, like the policeman, MI5, they would say they | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
don't have the resources. So it is a big question. The Metro continues | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
this story. Labour will argue that the powers exist already. You can do | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
that within our own Constitution, not that we have written but within | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
our own laws, we can deal with these undesirables. That is the argument | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
that you will hear from the Lib Dems. How much do we infringe on | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
personal liberty to keep people safe. There was that we have | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
everything we need in place in terms of laws and jurisdiction. It is just | :07:43. | :07:47. | |
a case of resource in. I think we cannot really understate the feeling | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
that people have had to take a blanket of approach to security will | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
infringe upon personal liberty in some ways. People start to feel | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
uncomfortable. I was good to say, Jon, that there might be a body of | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
opinion out there that much of this could be the white Lego because what | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
has happened. -- John. And it has been appalling. But there will be | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
those out there who will save, look, let's be careful, here. We are | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
talking about a serious rowing back of all of our human rights. Indeed. | :08:22. | :08:30. | |
It is a difficult argument. I can see both sides. -- I was going to | :08:31. | :08:40. | |
say. When it comes to sentencing, we should talk about that at which we | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
talked about today, you do need to change anything dramatically. These | :08:47. | :08:49. | |
three guys there were response will do this because he not far from | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
where we are sitting, it were they brought to court, could have gone | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
down to murder. You had to introduce a law to bring a terrorism factor | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
into it. I think extending prison sentences as something which does | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
not really work for me and this situation that we face. Logically, I | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
suppose, but you got to those constituencies in the north-east and | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
the north-west, and the Midlands, which voted Leave, potentially you | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
can voters, who are, you know, hard on law and order, with this coded | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
message to four hours before an election, it will pay well. As soon | :09:29. | :09:33. | |
as they heard that, I thought that is actually addressing precisely | :09:34. | :09:39. | |
what readers of the Daily Express, the Metro, and these sorts of papers | :09:40. | :09:46. | |
would want to hear. The Daily Mirror, then. Kate, I'm going to be | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
a terrorist. This is the third attacker, the Moroccan Italian, | :09:53. | :10:02. | |
Youssef Zaghba, who said that he was trained to get to Syria, in Italy. | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
That is right. A few papers have covered this story. As it is | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
reported in the Mirror, he was stopped at an airport tried to get | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
to Syria. He had a phone which had extremist material on in terms of | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
images and photographs. He also had a 1-way ticket, a small bag, just | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
hand luggage, but I think what was on his phone, if you actually read | :10:29. | :10:32. | |
the stories, you will start to see, how on earth is he not pulled over, | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
essentially, by Nicos? It might be questioned, and in this report they | :10:38. | :10:41. | |
will say that there was a charge and he could not be prosecuted. When you | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
see what stacks up against him, it does feel astonishing that nothing | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
happened in Italy, and he was able to come to Britain. That is putting | :10:49. | :10:54. | |
the blame on the Italians. All they're saying is that this | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
information was on a platform that should have been shared. We could | :10:58. | :11:04. | |
have read it. But there must be acres of information on | :11:05. | :11:06. | |
platforms. It could be that this was platforms. It could be that this was | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
nest or that it was red and ignored, not given priority, we don't know. | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
The indication from all these sources is that the security | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
services made a huge mistake by not identifying him and taking certain | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
actions. -- read. The Italians did not take any action and are now | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
bleating about us not taking action. I have said before the security | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
services. Ready to wreak -- 33,000 potential cases. Thousands are on | :11:33. | :11:40. | |
lists of serious suspect. And five active cases they look at all the | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
time. Whether they begin and when they stop? These guys are | :11:45. | :11:47. | |
responsible -- these guys who are responsible for the attacks on the | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
weekend, or they did was Hari then and by so nice. That is all they | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
did. There is no evidence that planning anything on the Internet. | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
This suggest that you need a Europewide, a holistic approach to | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
deal with the threat. For good or ill, we are leading the European | :12:03. | :12:12. | |
Union. Go figure. This case will be very worrying for those who want to | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
stay in the European Union. Because clearly it shows that we have across | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
Europe the means to communicate, but also, we are quite desperate, and | :12:22. | :12:28. | |
basically have Italians who are not able to rescue this guy. But he said | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
that in front of British law, he would have had an -- K-Stew Ansa | :12:33. | :12:38. | |
straightaway. It was the European question into focus. As I say, for | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
good or ill. But you wonder how this will fit into the talks and | :12:47. | :12:48. | |
negotiations which This story is quite frightening. The | :12:49. | :13:07. | |
front page of the Times, and over role of security service methods. | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
How does Labour counter the arguments that are coming from the | :13:14. | :13:20. | |
Conservatives? It is very difficult. Jeremy Corbyn rightly or wrongly has | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
a reputation of opposing laws. He will be the first to say that under | :13:27. | :13:34. | |
any circumstances, while condemning, in the strongest possible terms, it | :13:35. | :13:42. | |
is a tricky one for him. Theresa May so far in this campaign has had the | :13:43. | :13:49. | |
upper hand on that one but there are other issues. It is not just about | :13:50. | :13:58. | |
this guide. The guide in the documentary was not picked up. And | :13:59. | :14:05. | |
this other guy who seems to have got into this country because he has | :14:06. | :14:11. | |
refused UK asylum but was in the country on an Irish Visa after | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
marrying a British woman. All sorts of questions. The police | :14:17. | :14:22. | |
commissioner and others have indicated they will review what is | :14:23. | :14:26. | |
going on but what they will do differently is another question. I | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
just wanted to say on Labour, what you would hear from Jeremy Corbyn is | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
probably this push for diplomacy and talks. I think... That is his | :14:37. | :14:44. | |
narrative. He is talking about the peace process in Ireland and he | :14:45. | :14:48. | |
would always say it was in talks that led the way... But you cannot | :14:49. | :14:55. | |
talk to these people. We grew up with all that and we knew talks were | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
going on an officially, below sea level if you like but you could talk | :15:01. | :15:06. | |
to these people you cannot talk to this lot. I think that is where he | :15:07. | :15:13. | |
might come unstuck. Let's end with the Guardian. The nurse who ran | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
towards the danger to help people and in the end paid with the | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
ultimate prize. I am really pleased that the Guardian put this woman on | :15:25. | :15:31. | |
the front page. An Australian nurse and the report here explained that | :15:32. | :15:37. | |
she ran towards danger, she tried to help people being attacked and she | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
lost her life while doing so. Really lovely tribute and comments from her | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
family and colleagues. Just a beautiful picture have are with the | :15:50. | :15:53. | |
sunflowers and it is really important to remember these | :15:54. | :15:56. | |
individuals who have lost their lives. We have terrorists all over | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
the front page but I am happy to see a real tribute to somebody who lost | :16:02. | :16:08. | |
their lives. The better side of the human nature on a night of carnage. | :16:09. | :16:15. | |
Good to see you both. And the youthful watching. Many thanks. | :16:16. | :16:20. |
