:00:18. > :00:20.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be
:00:21. > :00:23.With me are Laura Perrins, co-editor of the website
:00:24. > :00:25.The Conservative Woman, and Torcuil Crichton, Westminster
:00:26. > :00:32.Great see you both. Thanks for coming in.
:00:33. > :00:39.The Metro splashes that many graduates can expect to spend longer
:00:40. > :00:45.paying off their student debt than their mortgage with more
:00:46. > :00:47.than 75% failing to pay back the whole amount.
:00:48. > :00:50.The Guardian quotes a study claiming that students starting university
:00:51. > :00:51.this September will emerge with an average debt
:00:52. > :00:59.The Financial Times leads with takeover attempts by US firms
:01:00. > :01:05.of the British payment processing company Worldpay following Brexit.
:01:06. > :01:09.And the drop in the value of the pound.
:01:10. > :01:12.The Express quotes an investigation by the British Medical Journal that
:01:13. > :01:14.has found wait times for hip and knee operations have increased
:01:15. > :01:20.The Telegraph writes that Communities Secretary Sajid Javid
:01:21. > :01:23.is to force wealthy rural areas to build more homes in an attempt
:01:24. > :01:36.The Sun headlines a plea by doctors in the US and the Vactican
:01:37. > :01:46.That is after the public raised ?1.3 million to help pay for his
:01:47. > :01:50.treatment. The Daily Mail has a 4-page spread dedicated to Charlie
:01:51. > :01:52.Gard and his family after, it says, the Pope's spokesperson vote to
:01:53. > :01:54.overcome the British court ruling. The Times says
:01:55. > :01:56.the Transport Secretary, Chris Grayling, is to announce
:01:57. > :02:04.a ?1 billion road-building scheme Starting with the big story of the
:02:05. > :02:07.day which a number of newspapers are carrying, the front page of the
:02:08. > :02:11.Times. Donald Trump calls for June Trace is meeting over North Korea.
:02:12. > :02:21.They reckon they have the ballistic capability to fire a missile that
:02:22. > :02:24.can hit anywhere on the globe. It is the worst that few people want to
:02:25. > :02:30.see in a headline, Trump and North Korea. He has called her again
:02:31. > :02:32.crisis meeting, a meeting of the United Nations Security Council
:02:33. > :02:35.after North Korea claimed to have tested that intercontinental
:02:36. > :02:41.ballistic missile for the first time. He has upped his response,
:02:42. > :02:51.which up until now had been confined to tweeting, of course, the new tool
:02:52. > :02:57.in the diplomatic armoury. And it is expected that that meeting could go
:02:58. > :03:04.ahead tomorrow. Thank goodness he is going through the UN. And not just
:03:05. > :03:08.through Twitter. A president of the US on the 4th of July. Again, from
:03:09. > :03:15.North Korea, two fingers up. More than two fingers, though, this is a
:03:16. > :03:23.serious bit of kit. It could hit Alaska if they sent it out... Donald
:03:24. > :03:26.Trump did say... When was it, January or February, that he would
:03:27. > :03:32.never allow this to happen. That went well. It is the Chinese that
:03:33. > :03:37.good start that ever happening. North Korea as a client state of
:03:38. > :03:39.China. It is up to China to do something and Trump is appealing to
:03:40. > :03:45.China with his tweets and everything else. Keep your eye on this. We
:03:46. > :03:53.should not just be reading Trump's tweets, we should be reading about
:03:54. > :04:00.all the nations surrounding North Korea. In range of these North
:04:01. > :04:04.Korean missiles. Chilean tonnes of gas and oil under the that everyone
:04:05. > :04:09.will be fighting over. -- one Chilean tonnes. One wonders if we
:04:10. > :04:13.have to get used to the idea of North Korea having nuclear weapons
:04:14. > :04:22.and dealing with it on those terms. That is an idea that, you know, we
:04:23. > :04:24.should not just surrender on. No-one knows the manoeuvres behind the
:04:25. > :04:32.scenes in terms of what is happening with diplomacy but it is true that
:04:33. > :04:35.China will want to contain this. Diplomacy has run its course,
:04:36. > :04:39.really. But there is a school of fight that North Korea is defensive
:04:40. > :04:55.and does not want to be toppled like it Iraq -- Iraq and Syria. This
:04:56. > :05:10.headline, firefighter deal busts pay cut. Questions about the 1% pay cap
:05:11. > :05:16.four public service workers. The firefighters apparently have already
:05:17. > :05:20.busted this. Yes, this could be labelled another Tory surrender. If
:05:21. > :05:24.they start backpedalling on the pay cap, which was put in for a reason,
:05:25. > :05:28.not just the fun of it, it was to bring the public finances under
:05:29. > :05:34.control. On the backs of the public sector. I will come to that in a
:05:35. > :05:39.minute. It must be contained. And if they do not contain it, you can
:05:40. > :05:44.expect it to unravel. In relation to public sector pay, the truth is that
:05:45. > :05:56.after the recession, all P had fallen public sector pay rose more
:05:57. > :05:59.than private sector. Public sector pay has fallen by far less than
:06:00. > :06:06.private sector pay, having risen to a much greater degree between 2000
:06:07. > :06:10.and 2005. But the reason for the pay cap is to deal with the deficit. We
:06:11. > :06:16.have a lot of debt... We have a growing amount of debt. Past Jan
:06:17. > :06:22.soils have been trotted out in last few days, Alistair Darling, Kenneth
:06:23. > :06:28.Clarke, so on, they were fighting deficits in a different way. They
:06:29. > :06:36.did it by listening the past rings. -- the purse strings. This was a
:06:37. > :06:48.choice to put the birding on cutting spending. -- burden. I am just
:06:49. > :06:52.stating the facts! It is easy to dress up what is essentially heavily
:06:53. > :06:57.taxing a private sector worker who has seen his pay fault or greater,
:06:58. > :07:02.or her pay fault, to a greater extent than a public sector worker.
:07:03. > :07:05.It is easy to say, we will tax year to pay for public services. People
:07:06. > :07:09.are happy to be fought public services but the pain is to be
:07:10. > :07:15.shared across that the. It is private sector workers had the
:07:16. > :07:20.greater burden. Finished? Public sector workers pay their taxes as
:07:21. > :07:24.well. It is going to cost and it is going to unravel because the Tories
:07:25. > :07:28.are just listening to what they heard on the doorstep and the
:07:29. > :07:33.political fallout after the likes of Grenfell and London Bridge. Which
:07:34. > :07:37.people very quickly connected... Not the immediate response, which was
:07:38. > :07:41.fantastic, but the hysterical background and cuts that have left
:07:42. > :07:45.us in this situation. The firemen have gone for 2%. He started as a
:07:46. > :07:53.fireman on 21 grand, you might end up 136 grand. Inflation at 2.6%. The
:07:54. > :07:56.front page of the Daily Mirror is a continuation of this. Cameron, it is
:07:57. > :08:02.selfish to give our heroes penalises, it says. The millionaire
:08:03. > :08:10.next premier who rakes in ?126,000 an hour for speeches. It says. What
:08:11. > :08:24.is audience in Asia must have thought that he took potshots at
:08:25. > :08:26.British workers... Cameron White to defend his legacy. He did not go
:08:27. > :08:59.through that I remember the last time, during a
:09:00. > :09:05.Labour Government in 2002, they got a lot less than that and had to take
:09:06. > :09:10.changes in condition as well. OK, let's move on. The front page of the
:09:11. > :09:18.Telegraph. Leftover women forced to freeze eggs. What is that about?
:09:19. > :09:22.This is feminism coming back to inflict some pain on some alpha
:09:23. > :09:26.females. It is an interesting cultural story. We have written a
:09:27. > :09:31.lot about this on the website, actually. The numbers are
:09:32. > :09:36.significant. Supposedly, there has been a fivefold increase in British
:09:37. > :09:43.women freezing ex to about 4000 in total. -- freezing eggs. The
:09:44. > :09:47.procedure itself is very invasive. We are told this is because there is
:09:48. > :09:56.an oversupply of educated women and more women are going to university
:09:57. > :10:07.than men, it seems there and all -- are no men for them.
:10:08. > :10:15.Another hand, you could be going to university and leaving with ?57,000
:10:16. > :10:19.of debt. This is a symptom of the fact that there are more educated
:10:20. > :10:23.women than ever before. Six out of ten students are now women. The
:10:24. > :10:30.education system is succeeding for the funeral population, because we
:10:31. > :10:38.made that decision, but it is failing poor young white boys, to
:10:39. > :10:44.quote the book from last year. Failing young white guys are not
:10:45. > :10:48.getting into uni. There is a story behind that story. There is a whole
:10:49. > :10:53.book on that. We have it on the website as well. Been there done
:10:54. > :10:56.that. Front page of the Metro. Student loan was on a mortgage.
:10:57. > :11:01.Quite a few stories relating to student loans and problems people
:11:02. > :11:08.are having paying them off. The study says graduates from low income
:11:09. > :11:15.families, the ones who really get to university, leave with debts of
:11:16. > :11:19.57,000. That is since glands were replaced with loans. It says
:11:20. > :11:33.graduates will be in a 50s before they pay them off. But the debate...
:11:34. > :11:40.It is politically eschewed for Jeremy Corbyn to offer free tuition
:11:41. > :11:47.for students, great political cell caused engaged the years vote. --
:11:48. > :11:53.youth vote. But Labour that the wrong end of the debate. It is where
:11:54. > :11:56.you are born into your bond a life chances. If you're born in a poor
:11:57. > :12:00.farmer, you don't get support from the very beginning, before you can
:12:01. > :12:04.go to school. You're less likely to make it a university and then go on
:12:05. > :12:09.and make enough money to pay off listed below and if you do get to
:12:10. > :12:14.university. I don't think 40% of people should necessarily be going
:12:15. > :12:18.to university. A lot of people graduate with debt and are not
:12:19. > :12:24.secure graduate jobs. Not all degrees of the same. Lumping them
:12:25. > :12:35.all in one category is dangerous. Some degrees are useless. Name one.
:12:36. > :12:41.Gender studies is a worthless degree and you should not be paying for it.
:12:42. > :12:45.You're being generous with other people's money and asking other
:12:46. > :12:51.people too... I love shaking that money tree. Love it. I can't shake
:12:52. > :13:01.it enough. It's like when I used to go to church. Finally, I love the
:13:02. > :13:06.story. This is the Daily Express. Jean-Claude Juncker, president of
:13:07. > :13:11.the EU Commission, has gone to the European Parliament. Now want for
:13:12. > :13:18.his arrival and that of the Malta leader. He got very agitated and
:13:19. > :13:23.angry. He is like the old headmaster telling of the old schoolboys. It
:13:24. > :13:27.was a classic Visa TV, I am told. The express also tells us that the
:13:28. > :13:39.European Parliament, which will as we know is and democratic and Roger
:13:40. > :13:43.has no power, costs us eight billion pounds a year. Another reason why we
:13:44. > :13:49.should get out. One sentence comment. He is a notoriously
:13:50. > :13:53.passionate politician depending on the time of day, so this might have
:13:54. > :13:57.been after lunch. You know how we know he was angry? He gave his Thai
:13:58. > :14:04.leader in English. So we know he was angry. -- his Tyler Reid.
:14:05. > :14:08.Don't forget, you can see the front pages of the newspapers online.
:14:09. > :14:11.It's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers,
:14:12. > :14:14.and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it
:14:15. > :14:17.Thank you, Laura Perrins and Torcuil Crichton.
:14:18. > :14:36.Hello. 25 Celsius in the sun in Kent today but just 12 in the rain in
:14:37. > :14:41.parts of southern Scotland and northern England. Northern Ireland
:14:42. > :14:42.improved a bit this evening, drier, plenty of
