Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
With me are Michael Booker, deputy editor of the Daily Express, | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
and Jack Blanchard, political editor at the Daily Mirror. | :00:21. | :00:27. | |
The Telegraph reports that Britain's economic security | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
is endangered by an over-reliance on taxing the wealthy. | :00:34. | :00:38. | |
The Financial Times carries a portrait of the Chinese | :00:39. | :00:40. | |
dissident Liu Xiaobo, who died yesterday. | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
The Express claims there are new health risks | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
The Mirror reports moves to change organ-donor rules so that people | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
would automatically be considered donors unless they opted out. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
The Daily Mail says people who suffer suspected heart attacks | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
will have to wait longer for an ambulance to arrive. | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
The Times leads with a warning from Scottish and Welsh politicians | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
that they will block Brexit legislation. | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
The Sun reports anger from the families of victims | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
of the Hyde Park bombing on finding out the prime suspect got legal | :01:14. | :01:20. | |
Stories that look at Britain's public finances. Firstly, the | :01:21. | :01:35. | |
Financial Times, the finances would fail stress tests set for banks, one | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
watchdog. These tests were put in after the financial crash, to make | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
sure that they could cope with further shocks. It turns out the | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
economy can't, and it is bad news if you are suffering from austerity | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
fatigue. They say that the Government finances would fail the | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
tests, that we can growth rates mean recession is inevitable. And | :02:01. | :02:10. | |
unsustainable path that we are on at the moment, it will cause chaos if | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
there are any problems. It is not great news for the politicians, who | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
are keen for us to start spending. We are told the Conservatives have | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
seen some of the ideas to get the young people on board from the | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
Labour Party, spend more money, on tuition fees and things like that, | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
from the state, but that will not help, according to this. It is not | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
great news for the politicians, but good news for Philip Hammond, as he | :02:38. | :02:44. | |
likes austerity. Spreadsheet Phil! Good news might be pushing it. If | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
you are the Chancellor, it is a long and terrifying report by the OBR, it | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
is about 300 pages, and anybody who has read the whole thing will be | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
broken! I have read the main bits. Not just the executive summary? I | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
could not possibly comment! But it is not good news for anybody. The | :03:07. | :03:13. | |
other important thing is that we are not in a position to deal with | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
anything going slightly wrong, and there is something going on at the | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
moment called Brexit, which may add uncertainty over the next couple of | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
years. If that did go badly, it appears we are facing another big | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
serious financial problem. Take us to the Daily Telegraph, the same | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
story from a different angle, it says squeezing rich harms the | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
economy. The Daily Telegraph, Conservative supporting paper, has | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
picked out part of the report and says that one of the findings is | :03:45. | :03:51. | |
that the country is very reliant on the richest people at the top of the | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
economy, which is risky, if something happens to them or to | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
their area of income, like what happened with the financial crash in | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
2008, it leaves the public finances vulnerable. The Telegraph says | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
Labour's plan to tax the rich more to fund public services is risky. | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
Talking about fleeing the country, there will be tax incentives for | :04:20. | :04:21. | |
rich people as well, especially after Brexit. But it stop mention | :04:22. | :04:28. | |
that the report also says the last seven years have not left the public | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
finances in a good place, and it is equally grim reading if you are a | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
Tory Chancellor as if you were a Labour Shadow Chancellor. It is a | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
sobering analysis. If you are not that rich and you are looking at | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
this newspaper, you will think, they have the world's smallest violin, | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
that is a point of view. Austerity will not end any time soon. | :04:51. | :04:58. | |
According to this lot. Contains a U-turn on Paris climate deal, here | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
are the first lady and the president of each country. They are having | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
dinner tonight. I wonder what they are having. He likes ketchup with | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
everything. I am not sure, the chef has won 21 Michelin stars. What has | :05:16. | :05:21. | |
been happening? The first time they met was awkward. But he has put on a | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
good show for him this time. They kept doing these funny handshakes | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
are trying to outdo each other, it was ridiculous. It seems to be more | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
about how they touch each other these days! It is a fascinating | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
first summit, they are chalk and cheese. Relatively new leaders. One | :05:44. | :05:50. | |
of them is this old crazy guy, you do not know what he will do next, | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
you did not know what his politics are, the other is a centre ground, | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
young, great hope for the Liberals of Europe. They are clashing | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
together in Paris, you would love to be a fly on the wall. The talk is he | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
is coming round to a U-turn on the Paris climate deal, but he will say | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
anything to anyone, just to get out of the room, then he changes his | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
mind. He thinks no body can hear him over there. Do you not think that he | :06:19. | :06:26. | |
is feeling isolated, potentially's I don't think he ever feels like that. | :06:27. | :06:33. | |
I think his ego is so big, maybe people say things to him and advise | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
him, but I think he quickly goes away... Last week he talks about | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
this brilliant trade deal we will get, but where is the meat on the | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
bones? Out of the country at that is it. We will see, but he seems to | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
say, however that room, just to get out of the room. He told Emmanuel | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
Macron's has -- wife she is in great shape. What a charmer. For a woman | :07:02. | :07:10. | |
of... I should not say that! Revolt over repeal Bill power grab. We have | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
got the bill that will bring EU law when we leave the EU into British | :07:17. | :07:24. | |
law. What is the power grab? This will transpose these European laws | :07:25. | :07:28. | |
back into British law so we can stick with them or not at our | :07:29. | :07:32. | |
leisure, there is not a sudden change on the first day, but what | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
has upset the Scottish and Welsh governments is that when we get | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
these powers back, they go straight to Westminster, and Westminster may | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
or may not deemed that Scotland and Wales can have the powers, and they | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
think it is unfair, we are supposed to be a devolved nation, there | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
should be a much more integrated approach to how we devolved powers. | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
If you are a Scottish Nationalists and you are keen to push the idea | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
that Westminster is taking powers of view, Theresa May has given them | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
another opportunity to do that, I put in this bill in this way, and | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
Labour have said, we don't agree, we think the assumption should be that | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
the powers are devolved to the administration is unless there is a | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
good reason. And there should be scrutiny in Parliament. You have a | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
two-year window where they can think with certain laws at their will. It | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
sounds like they are going to. On the one hand Labour and the Lib Dems | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
would think this is a bad idea and they are worried about the oversight | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
and whether the Tories will start fiddling with things, but at the | :08:38. | :08:41. | |
same time they were always going to have a go, because they see Theresa | :08:42. | :08:44. | |
May is weak, and they will keep going. They talk about a political | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
quagmire, Tim Farron is talking about how this will bring down | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
Theresa May eventually. With the best will in the world, you can see | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
it happening, to cast this will drag on. Whether we come out in March | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
2019, when you see how much they are trying to slow this thing down, I | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
would be very surprised. This is the first in a series of big Brexit | :09:11. | :09:15. | |
bills for a weakened Prime Minister who has no majority to get stuff | :09:16. | :09:19. | |
through, and Labour, the Lib Dems and the SNP can chuck rocks at it, | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
and it will cause a massive problem. Do they then want to get the public | :09:25. | :09:29. | |
in flamed if they will do that at every single step? More and more | :09:30. | :09:35. | |
people will get upset. It is called sovereignty! Yes, but a lot of | :09:36. | :09:41. | |
people have voted for this. Taking back control for our Parliament! | :09:42. | :09:50. | |
Heart attack weight longer for an ambulance. A big shake-up of the 909 | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
service, it will slow things down. 4 million calls a year which they say | :09:56. | :10:06. | |
will no longer... If you are unconscious or not breathing, they | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
will send an ambulance within seven minutes. In a way, you are hoping to | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
be not breathing, so you get an ambulance! A strange thing to hope | :10:15. | :10:20. | |
for! They say it will help target the more serious ones, cos at the | :10:21. | :10:23. | |
moment there is an eight minute limit. But they are doing is to send | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
out a motorbike in the initial incident, which gets there on time, | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
with a motorbike cannot get you to hospital, so they give you in | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
initial care in some cases, but they cannot transport you. This is a | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
function of cuts? They say not. It is backed by the ambulance Chief | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
Executive 's and the British Heart Foundation and the strokes | :10:50. | :10:52. | |
Association. The NHS have got these people onside before they have | :10:53. | :10:54. | |
announced that, because they knew that headlines like this... It does | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
not look great in a headline. We don't know yet what the impact will | :11:01. | :11:04. | |
be, but their assessment says it will save lives. If the call is made | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
and you are still breathing, but 30 seconds later you are not,... The | :11:11. | :11:18. | |
assessment is wrong. How is these are bribing shops to stop them | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
taking cash? They would prefer to get rid of cash. They say to shops, | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
we will give you this free stuff as long as you make sure there is no | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
cash anymore. They are doing it in America, handing $10,000 each to 50 | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
small businesses. It will be coming here at some point, and you can see | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
how it is attractive to small businesses, but there are people who | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
do not lose -- do not use cards. We are not all as modern as you! You go | :11:52. | :11:58. | |
to a bar, you buy a drink, it is done. It is easy for you to take | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
your money. I want it to be easy. How do you put money in a charity | :12:05. | :12:11. | |
tin? Direct debit every month. An answer for everything! Very | :12:12. | :12:22. | |
benevolent! Finally, sport, Venus rising, Johanna Konta out, but not | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
down. Straight sets, Johanna Konta lost to Venus Williams. Venus | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
Williams is the favourite again now. Incredible how she is still so | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
powerful after so long. It is a lovely story for her to be back at | :12:37. | :12:42. | |
the top again, and for Johanna Konta, who has been on a fantastic | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
run. There was a point in the first set, a break point, if she had got | :12:49. | :12:52. | |
that then, it would have been very different. But in the big games, you | :12:53. | :12:57. | |
have to take the chance. Venus has come in under a cloud, after the | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
crash. She has had problems, it is good to see that it will be good for | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
her, and everyone is behind it. I printed up a load of Johanna Konta | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
Christmas T-shirts. You still have it wrong! I cannot shift them now! | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
Just change the date, next year. We got excited. You cannot get too | :13:22. | :13:29. | |
overexcited. I don't care much for tennis. She is in the top five now. | :13:30. | :13:35. | |
We still have Jamie Murray and Heather Watson in the doubles, with | :13:36. | :13:46. | |
their partners Martina Hingis. And the football season is only a few | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
weeks away! Every silver lining has a cloud! | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
Don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
It's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. | :13:57. | :14:00. | |
And if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it | :14:01. | :14:27. | |
The weather is looking good for most of us | :14:28. | :14:28. |
