:00:14. > :00:17.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:18. > :00:21.With me are Joel Taylor, Deputy News Editor of the Metro

:00:22. > :00:26.and Kate Devlin, deputy political editor of the Sunday Express.

:00:27. > :00:38.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with...

:00:39. > :00:41.Brexit leads many of the front pages - the FT focuses on the Chancellor's

:00:42. > :00:42.apparent plan for a two-phase, transition deal.

:00:43. > :00:44.The Telegraph highlights assurances from the Home Secretary

:00:45. > :00:48.that EU citizens will still be able to come to the UK.

:00:49. > :00:50.Meanwhile, The Times takes a look at UK-Ireland relations,

:00:51. > :00:52.saying Theresa May faces a new setback after

:00:53. > :00:54.the government there called for a post-Brexit Sea border.

:00:55. > :00:56.The Metro reports on the Grenfell Tower investigation,

:00:57. > :00:58.as police tell residents there are reasonable grounds to look

:00:59. > :01:00.further at possible corporate manslaughter offences.

:01:01. > :01:02.The Guardian also headlines that story, and has

:01:03. > :01:04.a picture of the new Swan Lake production starring Hull's

:01:05. > :01:11.The Mirror has an interview with mother

:01:12. > :01:13.of 11-month-old Charlie Gard, after a judge ruled he should be

:01:14. > :01:17.The Express leads with research claiming drinking

:01:18. > :01:20.alcohol regularly can significantly cut the risk of developing

:01:21. > :01:26.The Sun reports on the upcoming sentencing of thieves who stole more

:01:27. > :01:37.than ?400,000 from England star John Terry's home.

:01:38. > :01:43.First to the Times and one of the Brexit related stories. Irish want

:01:44. > :01:48.the border with Uganda Brexit. Dublin pushes for no controls that

:01:49. > :01:54.land frontier. Why, Kate? There are a couple of reasons. One of them has

:01:55. > :01:57.to be that we are dealing with a new Irish Prime Minister. He was elected

:01:58. > :02:01.as leader of his party only a couple of weeks ago. He has installed a new

:02:02. > :02:05.Foreign Minister and they are clearly flexing their muscles. But

:02:06. > :02:09.they are also talking about a number of possible solutions that have been

:02:10. > :02:14.suggested in the past, including technical solutions which they are

:02:15. > :02:19.now rolling out. I'm not that surprised. There have been

:02:20. > :02:21.suggestions that there would be huge difficulties in trying to patrol

:02:22. > :02:26.that length of border with things like video cameras, and would just

:02:27. > :02:33.be a return to the hard border of the past. This is also a huge

:02:34. > :02:41.because the border, for a long time during the Troubles, was such a

:02:42. > :02:44.difficult place to cross. It was the site of many atrocities. It was

:02:45. > :02:49.where a lot of people lost their lives, but it was also symbolic of

:02:50. > :02:52.lots of things. On the one hand, there will be lots of people in

:02:53. > :02:56.Northern Ireland who will not want a return to a hard border and would

:02:57. > :03:02.like this kind of solution. On the other side, where we are talking

:03:03. > :03:05.about Northern Ireland and talk about the other community, there

:03:06. > :03:10.will be people who look at this and say, we are as British as Theresa

:03:11. > :03:15.May and this is imperilling our British identity. It is a big

:03:16. > :03:19.problem. But you can understand why Dublin might think that a deal with

:03:20. > :03:25.this at sea somehow is for some people a possible solution. You can

:03:26. > :03:30.certainly see their perspective on getting away from a hard border in

:03:31. > :03:34.Northern Ireland. But you can also see how the government has been

:03:35. > :03:38.taken aback by this. There is a source from Whitehall here saying,

:03:39. > :03:45.we are being as positive as we can, but their attitude has hardened,

:03:46. > :03:51.which signifies that they are a bit shocked by this and not sure where

:03:52. > :03:55.to take it. In part, this was supposed to be Project Fear. It was

:03:56. > :03:58.supposed to be something that was never going to happen. David Cameron

:03:59. > :04:04.mentioned it in Prime Minister's Questions about ten days before the

:04:05. > :04:09.vote. It was supposed to be one of the last gasps, saying we can't

:04:10. > :04:16.possibly do this, it would lead to dreadful things. When he suggested

:04:17. > :04:23.that the border could be in the sea, I have relatives from the

:04:24. > :04:26.nationalist community who would not particularly be that obsessed with

:04:27. > :04:31.their British identity. They were all voting to stay in the EU, and

:04:32. > :04:37.they were so annoyed that David Cameron would even suggest this and

:04:38. > :04:39.would treat them differently than people in his Oxfordshire

:04:40. > :04:45.constituency that they thought about voting no just to spite him. Freedom

:04:46. > :04:51.of movement to continue after Brexit so EU citizens will still have the

:04:52. > :04:56.right to work in Britain? Yes, this is a curious one because earlier

:04:57. > :05:01.today the Immigration Minister was saying freedom of movement was going

:05:02. > :05:08.to end in 2019, and now it is not. There is a lovely line here that

:05:09. > :05:10.there will be a transitional period, which we had expected, because even

:05:11. > :05:16.Michael Gove suggested that that would happen. But this source says

:05:17. > :05:23.the transitional period may look like a similar arrangement to free

:05:24. > :05:26.movement. So the Government has not quite made up its mind here. It

:05:27. > :05:35.knows that it can't just stop free movement with a cliff edge, but they

:05:36. > :05:43.haven't worked out how to frame the arrangement after Brexit. Kate, this

:05:44. > :05:48.is to try to reassure businesses which rely on seasonal workers and

:05:49. > :05:51.workers from outside Britain. But at the same time, it risks annoying

:05:52. > :05:58.Tory Brexiteer MPs, one of whom is quoted here as saying we can't just

:05:59. > :06:03.have the same thing, called something different. He says people

:06:04. > :06:06.voted to take control and this would not be taken control. Staying with

:06:07. > :06:11.the Daily Telegraph, Britain left reliant on allies to track Russian

:06:12. > :06:19.buy crap. Why can't we do it ourselves? In part because we got

:06:20. > :06:23.rid of a lot of maritime aircraft -- Britain left reliant on allies to

:06:24. > :06:28.track Russian spy craft. It is mainly because the Russians are

:06:29. > :06:34.buzzing us quite a lot. That is the phrase for them. They are bringing

:06:35. > :06:40.over their spy planes and trying to destabilise us by hanging around the

:06:41. > :06:47.area. Let's move onto your paper, the Metro. Grenfell - the net closes

:06:48. > :06:50.in. This is the Met updating survivors. Yes, they have been

:06:51. > :06:55.leading victims and families know they have reasonable grounds to

:06:56. > :07:02.suspect both the Kensington and Chelsea Council and it and

:07:03. > :07:05.organisation which deals with the council flats. They have reasonable

:07:06. > :07:10.grounds to suspect them of corporate manslaughter, so they are going to

:07:11. > :07:13.interview both. They will formally question representatives from both

:07:14. > :07:19.and we could see charges following on from that. I don't think there is

:07:20. > :07:24.much optimism yet that people are actually going to be brought to

:07:25. > :07:29.account over this. David Lammy has been making the point that this is

:07:30. > :07:36.punishable by a fine, but it is the start of something. It is not

:07:37. > :07:42.individuals, though, it is clearly about the organisation rather than a

:07:43. > :07:45.person. It is, and David Lammy has called for them to investigate a

:07:46. > :07:49.different type of manslaughter which would not be punishable by a fine,

:07:50. > :07:58.but could be punishable by a prison term. A long way to go. Let's look

:07:59. > :08:03.at the #, page two - jails are an all-out scandal.

:08:04. > :08:11.71 likes Lego by mistake. 20 guards beaten every day. The sheer number

:08:12. > :08:15.of violent and self-harm is also going up. When you speak to the

:08:16. > :08:19.Prison Officers Association, they say they are not surprised, because

:08:20. > :08:24.they don't have enough staff. That has been a consistent line from them

:08:25. > :08:27.for a long time now. Francis Cook from the Howard league for penal

:08:28. > :08:31.reform is talking about chronic overcrowding in these jails, and the

:08:32. > :08:36.new Justice Secretary David Lidington has admitted that prisons

:08:37. > :08:41.are not yet safe or secure. The prisoners to be allowed to slip into

:08:42. > :08:46.such a state is quite something. -- for prisoners to have been allowed

:08:47. > :08:50.to slip into such a state. The government has promised that there

:08:51. > :08:53.will be more as an officers, but it is whether you can attract people

:08:54. > :08:59.into a career that is inherently dangerous? Yes, and pay seems to be

:09:00. > :09:04.an issue as well. The government are looking at that. The figures are

:09:05. > :09:11.astonishing. There were 15 prison escapes last year, bar and 73 people

:09:12. > :09:15.were let out by accident, which seems to suggest that rather than

:09:16. > :09:18.planning an elaborate escape, you should perhaps hope that they put

:09:19. > :09:26.down nine months instead of nine years, as happened in one case,

:09:27. > :09:29.which allowed a man to go free. Yes, the number of people being by

:09:30. > :09:36.mistake is at an all-time high. Let's go back to the Times. Jeff

:09:37. > :09:43.Bezos, the founder of Amazon, is briefly the world's richest man. Why

:09:44. > :09:48.only briefly? Because Amazon shares were not quite as good as expected.

:09:49. > :09:51.They went up in the day and then came back down. He had just gone

:09:52. > :10:05.ahead of Bill Gates for about six hours. But now he has slumped to

:10:06. > :10:13.$89.8 billion. I wouldn't have even noticed. You could ask what more

:10:14. > :10:18.vindication this man needs than $90 billion in the bank, but he did

:10:19. > :10:25.spend an awfully long time building his business. From his garage. For

:10:26. > :10:30.years, people said, when is Amazon going to make any money? When is

:10:31. > :10:37.this company finally going to turn it around? And he just kept holding

:10:38. > :10:45.his nerve. It is a real story of one man's singular ability to continue

:10:46. > :10:50.holding his nerve. Fair play to him. His has certainly done that, and he

:10:51. > :10:56.might still head to head. The FT said he is tussling with Bill Gates

:10:57. > :11:02.for the richest title. They could arm wrestle. Well, they both live in

:11:03. > :11:11.Seattle. A sort of white collar boxing. Now, the FT Datawatch

:11:12. > :11:23.column. This shows us the share of women who have been mansplained to

:11:24. > :11:29.buy men at different times. This is where men patronisingly explain a

:11:30. > :11:42.subject to women. Does this happen to you, Kate? Does it? I love this

:11:43. > :11:49.story. We have all been there. But they break it down into when it

:11:50. > :11:53.happens. People who have followed this phrase and where it came from

:11:54. > :11:57.know that it came from a social event, so it is perhaps not

:11:58. > :12:00.surprising that that is top of the list as to where it happens. But

:12:01. > :12:07.second most often is from your husband and partner. I am sure you

:12:08. > :12:16.never do that, Joel. I get into trouble if I attempt it. I wonder

:12:17. > :12:22.why(!), but if you do accidentally slip into mansplaining, what is the

:12:23. > :12:26.come # Normally being told off by my mum or my wife.

:12:27. > :12:33.How do you deal with it, Kate? I deal with it the way the original

:12:34. > :12:38.innovator of the phrase does, which is badly. I sit there and say things

:12:39. > :12:45.like, yes, I know that. I am a political journalist. Or, I think

:12:46. > :12:49.you will find I read that story. The problem is that quite often, people

:12:50. > :12:56.can just be oblivious and they just continue because they don't want to

:12:57. > :13:04.listen. Not life's listeners. Find a raised eyebrow is all you need.

:13:05. > :13:10.Practise it. Quickly, moderate drinking reduces danger of diabetes.

:13:11. > :13:16.How moderate is moderate, though? It is a rather subjective term. Men who

:13:17. > :13:20.drink 14 units a week were found to have a lower risk of diabetes, and

:13:21. > :13:30.women who had nine units a week had a 58% lower risk. So pretty

:13:31. > :13:33.moderate. But before you raise a glass, you might get alcoholic

:13:34. > :13:38.hepatitis, so it is not all good news. And if you believe, like

:13:39. > :13:41.Graham Norton does, that he doesn't understand how people don't finish a

:13:42. > :13:46.bottle of wine because how do they know when it is time to go to bed,

:13:47. > :13:50.this is not the story for you. No. There are so many other reasons not

:13:51. > :13:51.to drink, but that is one of the good reasons to do so.

:13:52. > :13:56.Thank you, Joel Taylor and Kate Devlin.

:13:57. > :14:10.There's something wrong with the weather at the moment.

:14:11. > :14:12.Today was a mixture of sunshine and heavy April showers

:14:13. > :14:14.and we have more showers this evening and overnight.

:14:15. > :14:17.The heavy ones in the south-east should ease away, but we'll keep

:14:18. > :14:20.them going in the west and particularly further north
