:00:00. > :00:00.An oil tanker that crashed in Pakistan's Punjab province has

:00:00. > :00:00.left at least 150 people dead, most of whom were collecting leaking

:00:00. > :00:21.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be

:00:22. > :00:25.With me are are Rob Merrick, the deputy political editor

:00:26. > :00:27.at The Independent, and the author and broadcaster,

:00:28. > :00:39.We only have ten minutes, so we better be quick.

:00:40. > :00:42.The Telegraph leads with the ongoing Brexit talks, saying British

:00:43. > :00:45.tourists would be guaranteed free health treatment in the EU under

:00:46. > :00:48.Brexit negotiations also dominate the front page of the Times,

:00:49. > :00:50.saying thousands of European criminals could face deportation

:00:51. > :00:55.The i features a picture of workers removing cladding from a high-rise

:00:56. > :00:57.building with the headline '100 % unsafe'.

:00:58. > :01:00.The FT focusses on the Italian banking system, saying the country

:01:01. > :01:03.has set aside billions of euros worth of taxpayers money

:01:04. > :01:07.'Shocking Scale of Migrant Problem' is the headline for the Daily

:01:08. > :01:09.The Guardian leads with yesterday's cyber attack on parliamentarians,

:01:10. > :01:14.saying the Russian government is suspected of being involved.

:01:15. > :01:18.The Daily Mirror front page also focuses on the concerns over tower

:01:19. > :01:20.block safety saying fury in mounting after all cladding

:01:21. > :01:22.tested so far fails to meet standards.

:01:23. > :01:25.And the Daily Mail says Labour's Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell has

:01:26. > :01:27.been accused of exploiting the Grenfell tower tragedy

:01:28. > :01:29.after saying the victims were 'murdered by political

:01:30. > :01:41.Some Brexit issues to start with. Foreign criminals to be thrown out

:01:42. > :01:47.after Brexit? Quite a lot of them, it seems, are waiting to depart

:01:48. > :01:55.these shores? Yes, according to the Times, there are thought to be about

:01:56. > :02:00.13,000 foreign criminals in Britain. There are thousands who have served

:02:01. > :02:08.sentences and are waiting for deportation. In 2014, only 44

:02:09. > :02:13.criminals were repatriate it. We obviously have a larger number of

:02:14. > :02:18.6000 people waiting to be deported, but only 44 people actually being

:02:19. > :02:22.deported in a recent example. This does not seem like the biggest part

:02:23. > :02:34.of the Brexit negotiations, I would say. I do think that 13,000 foreign

:02:35. > :02:40.offenders is quite a lot, relative to the number of EU nationals

:02:41. > :02:48.waiting to find out about their potential future. It is quite a

:02:49. > :02:52.small number of people. It does affect our rules about deciding who

:02:53. > :02:58.gets to coming in the first place? Most people claim they should be

:02:59. > :03:11.doing more to gig at foreign criminals. I don't know whether the

:03:12. > :03:15.viewers can see, the headline here, as you are saying, the big issue is

:03:16. > :03:21.not foreign criminals. It is that tomorrow, the government has to

:03:22. > :03:32.produce detailed plans for the right of EU citizens after rape Grexit and

:03:33. > :03:39.securing the rights of -- after Brexit, and securing the rights of

:03:40. > :03:46.UK citizens inside the EU. Before they do that they will not be able

:03:47. > :03:56.to get stuck into the trade talks, which they are desperate to do. The

:03:57. > :04:00.Telegraph, government facing ?600 million after tax to flats. Given

:04:01. > :04:08.the scale they have got to carry out, it is not surprising -- checks.

:04:09. > :04:13.We don't know how many of the 600 towers that are suspected of having

:04:14. > :04:19.some of that cladding are going to come back and failed the tests. 60

:04:20. > :04:28.have failed so far, so this ?600 million figure is an extrapolation

:04:29. > :04:33.of ?1 million that is needed terrific the cladding. Even if it is

:04:34. > :04:37.600 million, I actually think it is a very small sum next to what the

:04:38. > :04:40.government is really going to have to spend if they are going to change

:04:41. > :04:44.housing policies. The Prime Minister said last Thursday that she

:04:45. > :04:49.recognised that the country had not done enough for people in social

:04:50. > :04:55.housing. If she means that, the government should end this loss of

:04:56. > :05:00.social housing. They need to pay for other aspects of the housing policy.

:05:01. > :05:03.They will end a ban on social housing building which is

:05:04. > :05:08.effectively in place at the moment. Any rental housing that is supposed

:05:09. > :05:12.to be a affordable is not affordable, social rent is going to

:05:13. > :05:18.cost a lot more money. If she means for that sort of change, then at the

:05:19. > :05:21.end of the process, ?600 million is going to be a very small amount.

:05:22. > :05:37.Elliptical fallout from some comments after the great bell tower

:05:38. > :05:42.fire. -- Grenfell tower. He had a rant in Glastonbury? He called it,

:05:43. > :05:47.murdered by political decisions. I would say it is probably not a great

:05:48. > :05:56.usage, slaughtered would have been another more accurate descriptor. It

:05:57. > :06:00.is hard to suggest, I would suggest that the people who put up the

:06:01. > :06:07.cladding, those who pay for it and find it off, they did so thinking,

:06:08. > :06:11.hopefully people will die because of this. I am certain that did not

:06:12. > :06:18.happen. So it is a very unfortunate turn of phrase. Obviously the Daily

:06:19. > :06:21.Mail had a different idea. It is not the first time that politicians have

:06:22. > :06:27.accused each other of capitalising on tragedies. John McDonald has made

:06:28. > :06:33.a career out of saying outrageous things. He made a joke about a

:06:34. > :06:40.fascinating Margaret Thatcher, P had a suggestion about combining the

:06:41. > :06:43.bomb in the ballot. One of the interesting things about this

:06:44. > :06:49.comment is that he referred to decisions made over many decades.

:06:50. > :06:53.The Labour Party was in charge for 30 years in recent decades,

:06:54. > :06:57.therefore if he is accusing politicians off in his words,

:06:58. > :07:05.murder, he is implicating his own side as well. Looking at the

:07:06. > :07:09.Guardian, DUP deal to prop up the Theresa May government. We thought

:07:10. > :07:18.it was all kind of done and dusted? But we still haven't got the detail?

:07:19. > :07:22.Who knows? These leaks appear to be coming out of their talks on a very

:07:23. > :07:26.regular basis. Downing Street seem to think that the DUP are

:07:27. > :07:30.responsible, perhaps that has held things up. Given that you have

:07:31. > :07:35.people like Chris Patten appearing on these programmes today, saying,

:07:36. > :07:39.they will make us look like the nasty party, I think that probably

:07:40. > :07:45.Theresa May's biggest problem is within her party. Do we know what

:07:46. > :07:50.kind of special treatment, special favour is the DUP would have won for

:07:51. > :07:55.northern Ireland? Every street in Belfast is going to be paid in gold

:07:56. > :08:00.by the end of the year, or something close to that. It was rumoured to be

:08:01. > :08:04.?2 billion for infrastructure, they have also talked about education.

:08:05. > :08:09.Spending in Northern Ireland is already much higher than spending in

:08:10. > :08:15.England. We will see John Major's phrase, cash for votes. It provides

:08:16. > :08:21.Theresa May with some sort of solidity and a majority this week,

:08:22. > :08:27.hopefully, from her point of view, other key votes in the future. Once

:08:28. > :08:33.they've got that deal in place, it may be that they can get on with the

:08:34. > :08:45.serious business of studying the other officers. The Guardian has a

:08:46. > :08:50.story on a suspected Russian hack Lacy I thought it wasn't the

:08:51. > :08:55.Russians this time? The headline says it is a Russian hacker, but

:08:56. > :08:58.then there are sources who have said it appears to be state-sponsored. It

:08:59. > :09:06.is notoriously difficult to attribute an instance to a specific

:09:07. > :09:10.actor. You put Russia in the headline, everybody will associate

:09:11. > :09:17.it with America. The Russians are strongly suspected of interfering,

:09:18. > :09:25.as we well know. I don't know what they would had to find out by

:09:26. > :09:36.hacking into that. Maybe they hope to find out who is standing for the

:09:37. > :09:42.chairmanship of the rural food and pasture office. Yes, good question.

:09:43. > :09:50.Finishing with the sun, can we please get onto the property news?

:09:51. > :09:58.Look at the headline. There is an eight foot shark. I have set you a

:09:59. > :10:06.task... I ask you to find out how common sharks of this size. It is a

:10:07. > :10:14.blue shark, and they are seen as far north as Norway. 10- 20 million blue

:10:15. > :10:20.sharks are killed every year. For shark fin soup. Overall, I think in

:10:21. > :10:27.the last 500 years, they have been four reported cases of somebody

:10:28. > :10:32.being eaten by a blue shark. We kill about 20 million per year.

:10:33. > :10:40.Apparently this shark has been caught and injured with a harpoon.

:10:41. > :10:52.No! If you are injured with a harpoon, but is not like a small...

:10:53. > :10:58.I think the shark might have had a worse state than many of us did.

:10:59. > :11:05.Putting nets in the sea? It didn't sound like they need to. Everybody

:11:06. > :11:08.was swimming as fast as possible in the opposite direction, but she

:11:09. > :11:15.would have been going, no! It's a blue shark. Wouldn't you, Natalie?

:11:16. > :11:22.Did you do any research that I asked you to do? We should all be worrying

:11:23. > :11:26.about the poor sharks. They are worried about whether it is going to

:11:27. > :11:32.put people off, this summer. A very popular place. You sound like the

:11:33. > :11:41.mayor of Amity. That is all I'm going to say. We've got the wrapup

:11:42. > :11:50.music. The's it for the papers. Natalie and Rob, a treat as always.

:11:51. > :11:51.Next, the film review. -- Film Review.
