:00:00. > :00:08.make sure that they stay safe and that is happening, right now. Much
:00:09. > :00:19.more run a story at 11pm. Now it is time for The Papers.
:00:20. > :00:25.What matter I will get to what The Papers will be bringing us tomorrow.
:00:26. > :00:37.We're joined by the writer and broadcaster Caroline Foster and the
:00:38. > :00:42.jealous, Tony McCoy. The first of our headlines... The Daily Telegraph
:00:43. > :00:45.quotes the council leader in the borough, saying that Grenfell
:00:46. > :00:52.changes everything. The developments in Camden came too late for the
:00:53. > :00:56.daily Mirror. The express labels critics of Theresa May as EU
:00:57. > :00:59.bullies, as the Prime Minister announces details of the offer to EU
:01:00. > :01:05.nationals after Brexit. According to The Times, the Manchester suicide
:01:06. > :01:10.bomber used videos from YouTube and other websites to help build a
:01:11. > :01:12.device that killed 22 people. And the Daily Mail serialises the
:01:13. > :01:19.biography of the Duchess of Cambridge. A couple of the papers
:01:20. > :01:25.are managing to report what happened in Camden tonight, only a couple of
:01:26. > :01:30.them because the news broke so late. We will start with the I. Urgent
:01:31. > :01:36.safety work needed at high rise after buildings fail safety checks.
:01:37. > :01:42.Even this front page was put together in a rush. Absolutely,
:01:43. > :01:46.covering breaking news. Deciding to evacuate a block on a Friday
:01:47. > :01:49.evening. They are talking about putting people up on a leisure
:01:50. > :01:54.centre and speaking about finding hotel rooms in the middle of high
:01:55. > :01:58.season in London for 800 households. My first reaction is, I think this
:01:59. > :02:03.is a mistake. If I was the council I would say to people, there is a very
:02:04. > :02:06.small risk that the fire is going to break out in this block and that the
:02:07. > :02:11.cladding might catch fire and then we might have a repeat of what
:02:12. > :02:15.happened in Grenfell. I would have offered a people asked for temporary
:02:16. > :02:19.accommodation but as we heard from bag lady who lives in one of the
:02:20. > :02:24.blocks, we're talking about people being out of their homes for four
:02:25. > :02:29.weeks. I'm not sure that the council has thought this through. How big is
:02:30. > :02:33.this risk? If I lived in a tower block I would feel the concern that
:02:34. > :02:37.lady expressed and I can understand the Council offering that do that
:02:38. > :02:42.people who requested it by saying that the block is unsafe and we have
:02:43. > :02:44.to move people into a leisure centre seems like a slight overreaction and
:02:45. > :02:48.it is going to put pressure on other councils across the country, to see
:02:49. > :02:52.whether or not they are going to react in the same way. It is
:02:53. > :02:57.difficult when you're in the council's position. What decision
:02:58. > :03:00.you make? I don't think this decision will have been taken,
:03:01. > :03:04.likely. You could tell from the body language of the council leader. I am
:03:05. > :03:10.sure that this was done with a very heavy heart. Whilst the might be a
:03:11. > :03:13.small chance, even this remotest chance of a repeat of those scenes
:03:14. > :03:20.we saw last week is something that no council can be seen to let
:03:21. > :03:24.through. People'svoices have got more powerful in the wake of the
:03:25. > :03:32.tragic circumstances that Grenfell Tower. Can you imagine the outcry if
:03:33. > :03:37.any council sat on any fire safety warning or they did nothing they
:03:38. > :03:40.delayed? It be unthinkable. As you said, Tony, some people have said I
:03:41. > :03:48.am not worried about it, I am not going anywhere. Two things. It will
:03:49. > :03:53.be interesting to see what the Fire Service said. I suspect that they
:03:54. > :03:59.have not ordered an evacuation and this is a political decision. They
:04:00. > :04:03.did express concerns. They expressed concerns about the safety of the
:04:04. > :04:07.building, well, maybe I am wrong about this. Perhaps what council
:04:08. > :04:11.leader should have been doing for the last six or seven years is
:04:12. > :04:15.upgrading facilities in council blocks that they control, perhaps
:04:16. > :04:23.putting sprinklers in, perhaps putting proper fire alarms in before
:04:24. > :04:24.this accident. This, to me, smacks of a panic, knee jerk reaction
:04:25. > :04:29.because Camden and other councils have bigger questions to answer,
:04:30. > :04:33.than just the cladding outside these buildings. The daily Mirror looking
:04:34. > :04:40.at the story, as well, in a connected way, but taking it back to
:04:41. > :04:47.what happened in Grenfell, Cilliers in our kitchens. The Grenfell fire
:04:48. > :04:52.started by a fridge freezer that had not been recalled. Concerns for lots
:04:53. > :04:56.of people about how safe the appliances are. The blame game has
:04:57. > :05:01.moved around as lessons are being learned. We have seen lessons about
:05:02. > :05:05.the cladding being learned at great speed by councils and authorities.
:05:06. > :05:10.They have moved to the fridge freezer. 64,000 of these products
:05:11. > :05:14.have been sold throughout the UK. That will not just the people in
:05:15. > :05:17.tower blocks but all sorts of consumers, and they have been
:05:18. > :05:22.invited to get in touch with the company. Presumably this is one step
:05:23. > :05:27.short of recalling the product. We will find out that there are other
:05:28. > :05:32.councils facing the same criticisms, so it will go on. We don't want to
:05:33. > :05:39.balance safety problems with widespread panic. This particular
:05:40. > :05:45.appliance has a plastic backing to it. That is correct. Not a huge
:05:46. > :05:51.amount of detail in the front page but it seems to be saying that this
:05:52. > :05:55.specific appliance when manufactured in the US has a metal back and in
:05:56. > :06:00.the UK, it has a plastic back that can go up in 90 seconds whereas the
:06:01. > :06:04.metal one stops are far from happening. This is a slightly
:06:05. > :06:08.ignored issue that we have had some concerns about white goods. There
:06:09. > :06:13.was a series of tumble drier fires in London that were raised in
:06:14. > :06:17.Parliament. There has been some concern around white goods and
:06:18. > :06:22.fires. That will come into sharp focus because of what happened at
:06:23. > :06:25.Grenfell. This conversation around cladding we were not having a couple
:06:26. > :06:29.of weeks ago has become a major issue of national importance. The
:06:30. > :06:36.Telegraph looking at the risk to hospitals, feared to be at risk,
:06:37. > :06:40.public buildings will have to be tested, again, following what
:06:41. > :06:44.happened in Grenfell. The scale of the checks that is going to be
:06:45. > :06:50.carried out in public buildings is enormous. This is not just
:06:51. > :06:55.hospitals, it is also schools. All of us have seen the way in which
:06:56. > :06:59.1960s buildings have been spruced up by sticking some cladding on the
:07:00. > :07:03.front of them. That was a popular method of making these buildings
:07:04. > :07:07.look more modern, but there are hundreds of them all over the
:07:08. > :07:12.country. We haven't even considered private tower blocks. Obviously,
:07:13. > :07:16.hospitals, schools, universities, will become a focus. The Department
:07:17. > :07:19.of Health says it is working with the building research Establishment.
:07:20. > :07:26.They are having a busy week doing the testing on the cladding. And an
:07:27. > :07:30.obstruction has gone out to hospitals, who did the contracting,
:07:31. > :07:39.what sort of cladding was use? -- and instruction. So this is going to
:07:40. > :07:43.take time. This is the trickle-down effect. In the wake of last week's
:07:44. > :07:47.tragedy, one of the immediate criticisms was that many of these
:07:48. > :07:51.regulations were too complex to be interpreted by standard local
:07:52. > :07:56.authorities. Clearly, what we should remember is that this cladding and
:07:57. > :08:00.these buildings have been in existence for half a decade and this
:08:01. > :08:03.was a tragedy that stood alone, so we had that people are seen this
:08:04. > :08:07.with perspective but on the ban, these are tests that should not have
:08:08. > :08:11.been happening in this knee jerk speed, this haste to move things to
:08:12. > :08:17.the top of the pile, that should have been going on much more
:08:18. > :08:27.regularly. Let's move on to the express, shall we? Theresa May
:08:28. > :08:31.stands up to EU bullies. I would say that, watching the spectacle of
:08:32. > :08:35.Theresa May in Europe is relatively speaking what she does better. We
:08:36. > :08:40.know that she has had a terrible two weeks since the election. I would
:08:41. > :08:42.think she may be relieved to go behind closed doors into boardrooms
:08:43. > :08:49.with lots of paper and policy to munch through and, frankly, anything
:08:50. > :08:52.she says, at least she's not going to have the PR disasters that she
:08:53. > :08:58.had when meeting the electorate and being asked to respond to tragedies.
:08:59. > :09:05.How Clay is it, the direction we're going in? It is as clear as mud.
:09:06. > :09:11.That is probably not how I would have interpreted what is going on,
:09:12. > :09:14.the way the Express has. Theresa May has gone to the European Council,
:09:15. > :09:19.meeting of the heads of government, a regular meeting and they have lots
:09:20. > :09:23.of things to discuss, by the way. Brexit is not top of the agenda for
:09:24. > :09:26.the other 27 nations. They have many issues to deal with. I can
:09:27. > :09:32.understand the sense of frustration from them. What Britain wants is not
:09:33. > :09:37.clear to our European allies and friends. This process has been
:09:38. > :09:40.delayed by a leadership election last year, Theresa May chose to
:09:41. > :09:44.delay it by two months by having an election in which she thought she
:09:45. > :09:49.would win a majority for what is called Bohar Brexit. She completely
:09:50. > :09:54.lost her majority and has no mandate for her hard Brexit or any part of
:09:55. > :09:59.the EU negotiation strategy and the reality of a hung Parliament means
:10:00. > :10:05.that a very small part, pro-European Tories in her own party will be able
:10:06. > :10:09.to scupper significant parts of a plan as it goes through. She has
:10:10. > :10:11.arrived in Europe, she's been humiliated by the British
:10:12. > :10:15.electorate, she still does not have a plan and the plan she does have is
:10:16. > :10:20.likely to be voted down by Herrerin party. So if you are a European
:10:21. > :10:27.leader you are not sure whether, what she wants whether she will be
:10:28. > :10:31.able to deliver any of it. Negotiations that everyone involved
:10:32. > :10:36.with will have two compromise, over something. This comes after a
:10:37. > :10:40.concession about EU national staying in this country. Saying that she is
:10:41. > :10:44.standing up to bullies, is she walking in back was come on the back
:10:45. > :10:48.foot? There was going to be much budging. There has already been
:10:49. > :10:52.fudging and U-turns on the manifesto before the election, there was a
:10:53. > :10:58.U-turn, so he can expect some more before the signature is dry. We will
:10:59. > :11:02.be here in two years, talking about this. It is a marathon, not a
:11:03. > :11:19.sprint. Let's go to The Mail. Glasto's Labour Love In. Ed Balls
:11:20. > :11:23.has been spotted in the bathroom queue with his towel. Tom Watson is
:11:24. > :11:29.there, he seems to be a regular. I've seen them there in the past.
:11:30. > :11:34.They are getting hot under the collar because Jeremy Corbyn is due
:11:35. > :11:38.to address the crowd and the BBC has been accused of bias because this is
:11:39. > :11:44.happening. It is a televised event and they are televising it. The BBC
:11:45. > :11:49.did not book Jeremy Corbyn to appear on the premise stage. But they have
:11:50. > :11:57.a duty to televise -- on the Pyramid Stage. A BBC youth reporter, someone
:11:58. > :12:04.who may or may not have voted for Jeremy Corbyn was quoted as saying,
:12:05. > :12:08."Brilliant". They are supposed to be generating enthusiasm for an event
:12:09. > :12:14.that they are televising. Abe supposed to stand back and say that
:12:15. > :12:18.other MPs' speeches are available? My view is that the BBC should not
:12:19. > :12:22.be showing this. It would not be particularly difficult for the BBC
:12:23. > :12:32.to cut away. They massively open themselves to accusations of bias
:12:33. > :12:35.for the left. I do think that this is an explicit political act that
:12:36. > :12:39.has been done to put the Leader of the Opposition on the main stage.
:12:40. > :12:43.That is politics and not music and the BBC needs to be clearer about
:12:44. > :12:48.where that line falls. If it was me I would not go anywhere near
:12:49. > :12:51.broadcasting it. Theresa May is not going to be there, that is the
:12:52. > :13:02.point, there is clearly biased side. What if the Prime Minister turns up
:13:03. > :13:07.at Glyndebourne and makes a speech? I think he's hijacking this event.
:13:08. > :13:13.But he was invited. Whoever invited him is hijacking the event to make a
:13:14. > :13:17.political point. A bit of a different light tonight. I am so
:13:18. > :13:22.sorry. It is because of the News events and what is happening at
:13:23. > :13:31.Camden. Caroline and Tony will be staying and will be back in the next
:13:32. > :13:33.hour. Join us again at 11pm for more news.
