:00:16. > :00:18.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:19. > :00:22.With me are Miranda Green from the Financial Times

:00:23. > :00:23.and Christopher Hope, chief political correspondent

:00:24. > :00:34.The Metro leads with the Haute de la Garenne children's home,

:00:35. > :00:37.at the centre of a report into decades of child

:00:38. > :00:43.by calls for the Prime Minister to end the 1% pay cap

:00:44. > :00:51.are urging the Chancellor to abandon commitments to reduce corporation

:00:52. > :01:05.tax on order to fund an increase in public sector pay.

:01:06. > :01:09.cites a new report showing the impact of pay freezes

:01:10. > :01:16.government ministers that the UK should be prepared to work

:01:17. > :01:19.closely with EU regulators in order to protect our Pharmaceutical

:01:20. > :01:24.treatment based on DNA testing could help millions of patients.

:01:25. > :01:27.The Telegraph says that charities that

:01:28. > :01:30.pester donors for cash, face being fined up to ?25,000

:01:31. > :01:33.And the Express says a fresh heatwave

:01:34. > :01:36.will hit the UK this week - it's expected to rise to 32 degrees

:01:37. > :01:49.What a scorcher! Starting with the Metro, this is a dreadful story, the

:01:50. > :01:55.island of Jersey. Tear down the house of horrors, the picture of the

:01:56. > :02:01.Haut de la Garenne children's home, decades of abuse, a report several

:02:02. > :02:05.years in the making. The report is out now and they say that there are

:02:06. > :02:09.some children in Jersey who may still be at risk? That's right,

:02:10. > :02:20.extraordinary story and it is very difficult to read. This is 57 years

:02:21. > :02:26.of abuse and hundreds of cases. Although, as you rightly said, the

:02:27. > :02:33.chief minister of Jersey today, on receiving the report, apologised, it

:02:34. > :02:35.actually seems that one of the findings is that the lessons haven't

:02:36. > :02:41.been learnt even now and that there are children in Jersey, in the care

:02:42. > :02:46.of Jersey who are not being looked after properly and who are still

:02:47. > :02:54.very runaround or. Such a horrific story -- still very vulnerable. They

:02:55. > :02:58.are going with the story that the home should be raised to the ground

:02:59. > :03:04.but it seems it will take more than that to ensure that this is never

:03:05. > :03:10.repeated. Some things are absolutely horrendous and it isn't a story to

:03:11. > :03:13.be taken lightly. As you say, the enquiry has been years in the

:03:14. > :03:20.making. Sexual abuse, children were victimised, beaten, put in solitary

:03:21. > :03:26.confinement, separated from their friends. Absolutely dreadful. And

:03:27. > :03:32.this, the building on the front, Haut de la Garenne. The report says

:03:33. > :03:36.that, it talks about the Jersey way, I don't know if you have heard of

:03:37. > :03:40.it, it is a mindset where you are proud of the traditions and history

:03:41. > :03:49.of the island but wrapped up in that there is a sense that society closes

:03:50. > :03:53.ranks when there is controversy and the so-called Jersey way, the report

:03:54. > :03:58.explicitly says it may have been a contributing factor to people not

:03:59. > :04:06.coming forward and talking about it. So shocking and the examples,

:04:07. > :04:14.youngsters selling flowers in the street until they sell enough. They

:04:15. > :04:18.looked at 500 offences between 2007 and 2010, and that was just three

:04:19. > :04:24.years but it is many more years involved, so no surprise the paper

:04:25. > :04:31.is saying to tear it down. It is generations of abuse and no

:04:32. > :04:34.transparency. None at all. The Times, you have been tweeting about

:04:35. > :04:40.this, Christopher, this whole thing about scrapping the 1% pay cap. You

:04:41. > :04:46.can't understand how the Tories have got into this. They won the

:04:47. > :04:55.election, they didn't lose it, they won it and now this is the front

:04:56. > :05:04.page of the Times, scrap tax to -- scrap tax cuts to boost state paid.

:05:05. > :05:08.Briefly, I can't speak now! It is a strange row because the Tories were

:05:09. > :05:13.the biggest party, they are panicking about why Corbyn did so

:05:14. > :05:17.well and they think, OK, he offered money to public sector workers, so

:05:18. > :05:21.we'll do that as well. Tuition fees were a hit, so we will hint

:05:22. > :05:30.something about that. It was chaotic. It is baffling why they are

:05:31. > :05:36.bothering, they are getting no credit, we are five years from an

:05:37. > :05:39.election. Now you have these ministers bullying and hectoring

:05:40. > :05:47.Philip Hammond who is trying to control the bucket and hit the

:05:48. > :05:52.deficit target, by the next decade, so it is a bad luck. Looks like they

:05:53. > :05:58.have lost, they are having a nervous breakdown. It is complete disarray.

:05:59. > :06:02.As Lord Lamont said today, other Cabinet ministers are appearing to

:06:03. > :06:06.publicly gang up on the Chancellor. Even last week Philip Hammond was

:06:07. > :06:15.said to be angry that his budget in the Orton was being anticipated and

:06:16. > :06:21.promises were being given -- his budget in the autumn. There is quite

:06:22. > :06:26.a lot of detail speculation about what tax cuts he may be forced into

:06:27. > :06:29.reversing, ones that have been promised but not put into effect, to

:06:30. > :06:34.find extra money to pay public sector workers. It would get him out

:06:35. > :06:41.of a hole because he does not want to put taxes up, he does not want to

:06:42. > :06:49.borrow, he does not want to do that. This would get him out of a hole,

:06:50. > :06:53.maybe he is pushing the story! I think this story is so complicated

:06:54. > :07:00.already, let's not introduce any more! They have pledged to reduce

:07:01. > :07:04.Corporation Tax even further, from 19%, to 17% and a suggestion here

:07:05. > :07:08.that if they did not do that it is quite a lot of extra money for the

:07:09. > :07:12.public sector workers. There is a lot of anger, the cap on public

:07:13. > :07:15.sector workers when we are forced to congratulate them every couple of

:07:16. > :07:21.weeks when they sold a disaster, like a terrorist attack or a public

:07:22. > :07:25.tragedy like Grenfell Tower and then we aren't playing them. The Tory

:07:26. > :07:29.government should be trying to put more money back in the pockets of

:07:30. > :07:34.people who voted for it and dropping the threshold of 40%, even the lower

:07:35. > :07:38.rate, I think is the wrong answer. I also supposed to be the party of

:07:39. > :07:45.fiscal discipline so they have a real problem -- Bay supposed to be

:07:46. > :07:49.the park it full -- Bayard supposed to be the target. -- they are

:07:50. > :07:59.supposed to be the party. It was said that you cannot get rid

:08:00. > :08:05.of the 1% cap because they must be fiscally responsible and they still

:08:06. > :08:17.have a deficit of 80% of GDP, whatever. A lot. I said... He said,

:08:18. > :08:21.we must be fiscally disciplined and we must be sensible but I said, you

:08:22. > :08:26.have public sector workers, the argument is that they have taken a

:08:27. > :08:31.real terms cut in pay for the last one, six, seven years. Inflation is

:08:32. > :08:40.really going up. Things will be hitting people. He says he will not

:08:41. > :08:46.balance the books until 2025 and Ken Clarke said he did not think anyone

:08:47. > :08:53.was talking about a 1% cap until 2025. Who knows? You never know. The

:08:54. > :09:00.Financial Times, top ministers pushing to keep EU farming ties

:09:01. > :09:06.after Brexit. Interesting on two levels, it is more evidence of the

:09:07. > :09:09.weird Cabinet free for all. Any minister at the top of government

:09:10. > :09:14.seems to be making their pitch for public sympathy or manoeuvring. Why

:09:15. > :09:21.not, they can get away with it. There is no discipline within the

:09:22. > :09:26.Cabinet. Two ministers, Jeremy Hunt of health and Greg Clark Whiting a

:09:27. > :09:30.joint letter saying that they want to keep these very close ties with

:09:31. > :09:36.the EU over the drug industry, pharmaceuticals and health, which is

:09:37. > :09:43.very interesting because it is very important for NHS treatment, drugs

:09:44. > :09:47.coming on stream and having the regulatory structure allowing

:09:48. > :09:51.patients to get them as quickly as possible, but it is also important

:09:52. > :09:56.to the pharmaceutical industry. What is going to happen if every cabinet

:09:57. > :10:05.minister in their particular sector starts saying, OK, Brexit, fine but

:10:06. > :10:11.not my bit of business and industry? Why are the FT saying this, why not

:10:12. > :10:15.write a letter to the Cabinet minister, or David Davies? This is

:10:16. > :10:22.not business as usual. Wide are they pitching it at me instead of David

:10:23. > :10:27.Davies? It is lobbying in public. On every single issue. It says the

:10:28. > :10:34.letter has been passed by Downing Street but it is very odd. It again

:10:35. > :10:39.makes it looks as if the Prime Minister's authority isn't strong at

:10:40. > :10:51.the Cabinet level. The Daily Telegraph, charities facing fine for

:10:52. > :10:58.pestering. A lot of rows about this. On Thursday they are launching a new

:10:59. > :11:03.line where you can report any kind of... If you are being bombarded by

:11:04. > :11:10.marketing and text messages you can say stop and within 28 days if they

:11:11. > :11:19.don't stop, a fine by the information Commissioner. It is a

:11:20. > :11:24.stick to try and stop this and forcing them to improve. It is the

:11:25. > :11:33.elderly being affected. You can complain on behalf of a relation, a

:11:34. > :11:39.concerned son or daughter. The eye newspaper, -- the I paper,

:11:40. > :11:46.personalised cancer care based on genes. In an annual report there has

:11:47. > :11:50.been a call for a complete change to how we treat cancer patients,

:11:51. > :11:56.essentially saying we must bring it up to date and that means gene

:11:57. > :12:02.testing, DNA analysis for every person who presents to the NHS. This

:12:03. > :12:05.could improve care. At the moment, people can end up being sent around

:12:06. > :12:11.to several different specialists before a treatment plan is in effect

:12:12. > :12:15.and it may not be appropriate for that individual and their genetic

:12:16. > :12:20.make-up. She says, give everybody a test and then you know what you are

:12:21. > :12:25.targeting. It is the frontier of medical science and research and it

:12:26. > :12:36.would change the way that individual patients received their care. At the

:12:37. > :12:43.bottom of the I, the TV Guide, how to prevent terror... INAUDIBLE

:12:44. > :12:52.. That is the papers for you. The Times newspaper, memory lapses are

:12:53. > :12:59.good for your brain. One of the best stories in the paper. The best I've

:13:00. > :13:06.seen in many years! You must blame your evolved mechanisms for neural

:13:07. > :13:11.transience, our brains are saying that something isn't important,

:13:12. > :13:17.forget that. Why would I bother anyway? The important stuff stays

:13:18. > :13:21.in. More than that, it says that the brain deliberately decides to forget

:13:22. > :13:25.things that you don't need any more so you can deal with new Tjallingii

:13:26. > :13:33.information. And it is like not having enough bandwidth --

:13:34. > :13:38.challenging information. What I find odd is that I have total recall for

:13:39. > :13:43.music lyrics from the 1980s, which I don't actually need! I'm worried

:13:44. > :13:49.that they are blocking space. So when I forget the keys, my bus pass,

:13:50. > :13:56.whatever, it is actually a sign that my brain is clicking along at a

:13:57. > :14:02.cracking rate! I'm actually on the ball. It actually says it is a sign

:14:03. > :14:06.of intelligence. Those with superhuman intelligence need

:14:07. > :14:13.psychiatric case studies. I have been described as that. Helen and

:14:14. > :14:22.George, great to have you both. Good to see you both. Thank you. That's

:14:23. > :14:35.it for the papers. Thanks for watching, goodbye.

:14:36. > :14:39.A weather system moving into Northern Ireland, turning things

:14:40. > :14:40.wetter and the rain by
