:00:14. > :00:16.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be
:00:17. > :00:20.With me are Michael Booker, deputy editor of the Daily Express,
:00:21. > :00:27.and Jack Blanchard, political editor at the Daily Mirror.
:00:28. > :00:33.The Telegraph reports that Britain's economic security
:00:34. > :00:38.is endangered by an over-reliance on taxing the wealthy.
:00:39. > :00:40.The Financial Times carries a portrait of the Chinese
:00:41. > :00:44.dissident Liu Xiaobo, who died yesterday.
:00:45. > :00:47.The Express claims there are new health risks
:00:48. > :00:52.The Mirror reports moves to change organ-donor rules so that people
:00:53. > :00:56.would automatically be considered donors unless they opted out.
:00:57. > :00:59.The Daily Mail says people who suffer suspected heart attacks
:01:00. > :01:02.will have to wait longer for an ambulance to arrive.
:01:03. > :01:05.The Times leads with a warning from Scottish and Welsh politicians
:01:06. > :01:10.that they will block Brexit legislation.
:01:11. > :01:13.The Sun reports anger from the families of victims
:01:14. > :01:20.of the Hyde Park bombing on finding out the prime suspect got legal
:01:21. > :01:35.Stories that look at Britain's public finances. Firstly, the
:01:36. > :01:40.Financial Times, the finances would fail stress tests set for banks, one
:01:41. > :01:44.watchdog. These tests were put in after the financial crash, to make
:01:45. > :01:50.sure that they could cope with further shocks. It turns out the
:01:51. > :01:54.economy can't, and it is bad news if you are suffering from austerity
:01:55. > :02:00.fatigue. They say that the Government finances would fail the
:02:01. > :02:10.tests, that we can growth rates mean recession is inevitable. And
:02:11. > :02:15.unsustainable path that we are on at the moment, it will cause chaos if
:02:16. > :02:21.there are any problems. It is not great news for the politicians, who
:02:22. > :02:25.are keen for us to start spending. We are told the Conservatives have
:02:26. > :02:29.seen some of the ideas to get the young people on board from the
:02:30. > :02:33.Labour Party, spend more money, on tuition fees and things like that,
:02:34. > :02:37.from the state, but that will not help, according to this. It is not
:02:38. > :02:44.great news for the politicians, but good news for Philip Hammond, as he
:02:45. > :02:49.likes austerity. Spreadsheet Phil! Good news might be pushing it. If
:02:50. > :02:55.you are the Chancellor, it is a long and terrifying report by the OBR, it
:02:56. > :03:00.is about 300 pages, and anybody who has read the whole thing will be
:03:01. > :03:06.broken! I have read the main bits. Not just the executive summary? I
:03:07. > :03:13.could not possibly comment! But it is not good news for anybody. The
:03:14. > :03:17.other important thing is that we are not in a position to deal with
:03:18. > :03:21.anything going slightly wrong, and there is something going on at the
:03:22. > :03:26.moment called Brexit, which may add uncertainty over the next couple of
:03:27. > :03:30.years. If that did go badly, it appears we are facing another big
:03:31. > :03:35.serious financial problem. Take us to the Daily Telegraph, the same
:03:36. > :03:41.story from a different angle, it says squeezing rich harms the
:03:42. > :03:44.economy. The Daily Telegraph, Conservative supporting paper, has
:03:45. > :03:51.picked out part of the report and says that one of the findings is
:03:52. > :03:57.that the country is very reliant on the richest people at the top of the
:03:58. > :04:03.economy, which is risky, if something happens to them or to
:04:04. > :04:06.their area of income, like what happened with the financial crash in
:04:07. > :04:12.2008, it leaves the public finances vulnerable. The Telegraph says
:04:13. > :04:19.Labour's plan to tax the rich more to fund public services is risky.
:04:20. > :04:21.Talking about fleeing the country, there will be tax incentives for
:04:22. > :04:28.rich people as well, especially after Brexit. But it stop mention
:04:29. > :04:33.that the report also says the last seven years have not left the public
:04:34. > :04:36.finances in a good place, and it is equally grim reading if you are a
:04:37. > :04:41.Tory Chancellor as if you were a Labour Shadow Chancellor. It is a
:04:42. > :04:46.sobering analysis. If you are not that rich and you are looking at
:04:47. > :04:50.this newspaper, you will think, they have the world's smallest violin,
:04:51. > :04:58.that is a point of view. Austerity will not end any time soon.
:04:59. > :05:03.According to this lot. Contains a U-turn on Paris climate deal, here
:05:04. > :05:08.are the first lady and the president of each country. They are having
:05:09. > :05:15.dinner tonight. I wonder what they are having. He likes ketchup with
:05:16. > :05:21.everything. I am not sure, the chef has won 21 Michelin stars. What has
:05:22. > :05:28.been happening? The first time they met was awkward. But he has put on a
:05:29. > :05:33.good show for him this time. They kept doing these funny handshakes
:05:34. > :05:37.are trying to outdo each other, it was ridiculous. It seems to be more
:05:38. > :05:43.about how they touch each other these days! It is a fascinating
:05:44. > :05:50.first summit, they are chalk and cheese. Relatively new leaders. One
:05:51. > :05:54.of them is this old crazy guy, you do not know what he will do next,
:05:55. > :05:58.you did not know what his politics are, the other is a centre ground,
:05:59. > :06:04.young, great hope for the Liberals of Europe. They are clashing
:06:05. > :06:09.together in Paris, you would love to be a fly on the wall. The talk is he
:06:10. > :06:14.is coming round to a U-turn on the Paris climate deal, but he will say
:06:15. > :06:18.anything to anyone, just to get out of the room, then he changes his
:06:19. > :06:26.mind. He thinks no body can hear him over there. Do you not think that he
:06:27. > :06:33.is feeling isolated, potentially's I don't think he ever feels like that.
:06:34. > :06:37.I think his ego is so big, maybe people say things to him and advise
:06:38. > :06:42.him, but I think he quickly goes away... Last week he talks about
:06:43. > :06:48.this brilliant trade deal we will get, but where is the meat on the
:06:49. > :06:54.bones? Out of the country at that is it. We will see, but he seems to
:06:55. > :07:01.say, however that room, just to get out of the room. He told Emmanuel
:07:02. > :07:10.Macron's has -- wife she is in great shape. What a charmer. For a woman
:07:11. > :07:16.of... I should not say that! Revolt over repeal Bill power grab. We have
:07:17. > :07:24.got the bill that will bring EU law when we leave the EU into British
:07:25. > :07:28.law. What is the power grab? This will transpose these European laws
:07:29. > :07:32.back into British law so we can stick with them or not at our
:07:33. > :07:36.leisure, there is not a sudden change on the first day, but what
:07:37. > :07:40.has upset the Scottish and Welsh governments is that when we get
:07:41. > :07:43.these powers back, they go straight to Westminster, and Westminster may
:07:44. > :07:48.or may not deemed that Scotland and Wales can have the powers, and they
:07:49. > :07:52.think it is unfair, we are supposed to be a devolved nation, there
:07:53. > :07:57.should be a much more integrated approach to how we devolved powers.
:07:58. > :08:02.If you are a Scottish Nationalists and you are keen to push the idea
:08:03. > :08:05.that Westminster is taking powers of view, Theresa May has given them
:08:06. > :08:10.another opportunity to do that, I put in this bill in this way, and
:08:11. > :08:14.Labour have said, we don't agree, we think the assumption should be that
:08:15. > :08:17.the powers are devolved to the administration is unless there is a
:08:18. > :08:22.good reason. And there should be scrutiny in Parliament. You have a
:08:23. > :08:28.two-year window where they can think with certain laws at their will. It
:08:29. > :08:33.sounds like they are going to. On the one hand Labour and the Lib Dems
:08:34. > :08:37.would think this is a bad idea and they are worried about the oversight
:08:38. > :08:41.and whether the Tories will start fiddling with things, but at the
:08:42. > :08:44.same time they were always going to have a go, because they see Theresa
:08:45. > :08:50.May is weak, and they will keep going. They talk about a political
:08:51. > :08:54.quagmire, Tim Farron is talking about how this will bring down
:08:55. > :08:58.Theresa May eventually. With the best will in the world, you can see
:08:59. > :09:05.it happening, to cast this will drag on. Whether we come out in March
:09:06. > :09:10.2019, when you see how much they are trying to slow this thing down, I
:09:11. > :09:15.would be very surprised. This is the first in a series of big Brexit
:09:16. > :09:19.bills for a weakened Prime Minister who has no majority to get stuff
:09:20. > :09:24.through, and Labour, the Lib Dems and the SNP can chuck rocks at it,
:09:25. > :09:29.and it will cause a massive problem. Do they then want to get the public
:09:30. > :09:35.in flamed if they will do that at every single step? More and more
:09:36. > :09:41.people will get upset. It is called sovereignty! Yes, but a lot of
:09:42. > :09:50.people have voted for this. Taking back control for our Parliament!
:09:51. > :09:55.Heart attack weight longer for an ambulance. A big shake-up of the 909
:09:56. > :10:06.service, it will slow things down. 4 million calls a year which they say
:10:07. > :10:08.will no longer... If you are unconscious or not breathing, they
:10:09. > :10:14.will send an ambulance within seven minutes. In a way, you are hoping to
:10:15. > :10:20.be not breathing, so you get an ambulance! A strange thing to hope
:10:21. > :10:23.for! They say it will help target the more serious ones, cos at the
:10:24. > :10:29.moment there is an eight minute limit. But they are doing is to send
:10:30. > :10:34.out a motorbike in the initial incident, which gets there on time,
:10:35. > :10:37.with a motorbike cannot get you to hospital, so they give you in
:10:38. > :10:44.initial care in some cases, but they cannot transport you. This is a
:10:45. > :10:49.function of cuts? They say not. It is backed by the ambulance Chief
:10:50. > :10:52.Executive 's and the British Heart Foundation and the strokes
:10:53. > :10:54.Association. The NHS have got these people onside before they have
:10:55. > :11:00.announced that, because they knew that headlines like this... It does
:11:01. > :11:04.not look great in a headline. We don't know yet what the impact will
:11:05. > :11:10.be, but their assessment says it will save lives. If the call is made
:11:11. > :11:18.and you are still breathing, but 30 seconds later you are not,... The
:11:19. > :11:23.assessment is wrong. How is these are bribing shops to stop them
:11:24. > :11:30.taking cash? They would prefer to get rid of cash. They say to shops,
:11:31. > :11:37.we will give you this free stuff as long as you make sure there is no
:11:38. > :11:43.cash anymore. They are doing it in America, handing $10,000 each to 50
:11:44. > :11:46.small businesses. It will be coming here at some point, and you can see
:11:47. > :11:51.how it is attractive to small businesses, but there are people who
:11:52. > :11:58.do not lose -- do not use cards. We are not all as modern as you! You go
:11:59. > :12:04.to a bar, you buy a drink, it is done. It is easy for you to take
:12:05. > :12:11.your money. I want it to be easy. How do you put money in a charity
:12:12. > :12:22.tin? Direct debit every month. An answer for everything! Very
:12:23. > :12:26.benevolent! Finally, sport, Venus rising, Johanna Konta out, but not
:12:27. > :12:33.down. Straight sets, Johanna Konta lost to Venus Williams. Venus
:12:34. > :12:36.Williams is the favourite again now. Incredible how she is still so
:12:37. > :12:42.powerful after so long. It is a lovely story for her to be back at
:12:43. > :12:48.the top again, and for Johanna Konta, who has been on a fantastic
:12:49. > :12:52.run. There was a point in the first set, a break point, if she had got
:12:53. > :12:57.that then, it would have been very different. But in the big games, you
:12:58. > :13:01.have to take the chance. Venus has come in under a cloud, after the
:13:02. > :13:07.crash. She has had problems, it is good to see that it will be good for
:13:08. > :13:14.her, and everyone is behind it. I printed up a load of Johanna Konta
:13:15. > :13:21.Christmas T-shirts. You still have it wrong! I cannot shift them now!
:13:22. > :13:29.Just change the date, next year. We got excited. You cannot get too
:13:30. > :13:35.overexcited. I don't care much for tennis. She is in the top five now.
:13:36. > :13:46.We still have Jamie Murray and Heather Watson in the doubles, with
:13:47. > :13:50.their partners Martina Hingis. And the football season is only a few
:13:51. > :13:52.weeks away! Every silver lining has a cloud!
:13:53. > :13:56.Don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online
:13:57. > :14:00.It's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers.
:14:01. > :14:27.And if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it
:14:28. > :14:28.The weather is looking good for most of us
