:00:00. > :00:13.to fantasy from writing historical fiction in Meet the Author.

: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 Nigel Nelson, political editor of the Sunday Mirror,

:00:22. > :00:27.and political commentator Jo Phillips.

:00:28. > :00:37.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with the Observer,

:00:38. > :00:40.which leads with President Trump's decision to sack his chief of staff

:00:41. > :00:41.- causing nervousness among Republicans.

:00:42. > :00:44.The Telegraph headlines an ally of Boris Johnson attacking

:00:45. > :00:49.The Sunday Times has a report on the lives of teenage British

:00:50. > :00:51.girls who run away to join so-called Islamic State.

:00:52. > :00:55.The Mail says that Princess Diana's brother has called on Channel 4 not

:00:56. > :00:58.to broadcast her video diaries, which are due to air next week.

:00:59. > :01:04.The Express also focuses on Princess Diana, claiming

:01:05. > :01:07.Princess Diana asked the Queen for help about her marriage.

:01:08. > :01:15.And that story also makes the Daily Star's front page.

:01:16. > :01:24.We will begin with the Observer. Border chaos will hit hard after

:01:25. > :01:29.Brexit, say experts. Why? Who are these experts? I thought we had had

:01:30. > :01:33.enough of experts. I think as Brexit goes on there will be so many

:01:34. > :01:38.experts coming out of the woodwork. These particular ones, it is a

:01:39. > :01:41.Europewide consultancy which did an assessment of what it would mean

:01:42. > :01:53.once we'd down south of the customs union. -- we bounce out of. They are

:01:54. > :01:57.predicting a huge lorry parks in the south-east of England, lots of extra

:01:58. > :02:04.border checks and costs. Custom checks would go up from a current

:02:05. > :02:10.?55 million to ?200 million, over one year. It means huge delays for

:02:11. > :02:18.any goods coming through. What this really shows is the tremendous

:02:19. > :02:22.complexity of Brexit. Now, if we are not a member of the customs union,

:02:23. > :02:26.we are bouncing out of the single market, we forget how easy life has

:02:27. > :02:30.been in the single market. Goods and people can easily go from Yorkshire

:02:31. > :02:35.to Lancashire, and is easily from France to Latvia. There were things

:02:36. > :02:41.like that we are getting from it. This new system will mean that we

:02:42. > :02:47.have border checks at every member state of the European Union, or 37

:02:48. > :02:51.countries. It will also mean that's lorries coming from the EU will get

:02:52. > :02:55.held up coming into this country as well. So it is in everybody's

:02:56. > :02:59.interests to come up with a plan to stop that happening. Absolutely.

:03:00. > :03:03.Because that will add on huge costs to consumers, because the delays and

:03:04. > :03:09.the price of goods coming in and being delivered. It will also mean,

:03:10. > :03:17.environmentally, it is not particularly brilliant. We have seen

:03:18. > :03:20.what happens when Operation Stack happens when there is a problem down

:03:21. > :03:24.at the Channel Tunnel or at the Channel ports. This will happen

:03:25. > :03:27.right across the country and right across Europe and it will encourage

:03:28. > :03:32.lots of firms to relocate, quite simply. So what are we going to do?

:03:33. > :03:38.Live on chlorinated chicken? These are the kinds of deals that must be

:03:39. > :03:44.done. They really have to be sorted out much later than this time next

:03:45. > :03:49.year. At the moment, airlines cannot sell advance tickets from October

:03:50. > :03:53.next year, because they need to know what deal we have over aviation

:03:54. > :03:59.safety, which is policed by the EU. Otherwise our planes grounded. I am

:04:00. > :04:03.sure that will not happen. I am sure we will get a deal. But it is the

:04:04. > :04:09.kind of thing that needs to be sorted out. And quickly. Yes,

:04:10. > :04:12.absolutely right. It might be that our lorries cannot even drive in

:04:13. > :04:16.Europe, and in retaliation, European lorries would not be able to drive

:04:17. > :04:20.in Britain, so we wouldn't be able to get goods backwards and forwards.

:04:21. > :04:28.If there has to be quick throw quirk, -- quid pro quo, they would

:04:29. > :04:38.cancel each other out. Or is that too simplistic? It is too sensible.

:04:39. > :04:42.This whole deal is being run by people who want Brexit and want it

:04:43. > :04:47.now. It is a case of ironing out the creases. We need a very big iron.

:04:48. > :04:54.The Mail on Sunday, don't show Diana love tapes on television. This is L

:04:55. > :04:59.Spencer, Diana's rather, not wanting these video diaries to be aired on

:05:00. > :05:04.Channel 4. Why not? These are video recordings of sessions that Diana

:05:05. > :05:09.had with a voice coach, a long time ago when she was in a very unhappy

:05:10. > :05:12.place. It was before she did the Panorama interview, and the

:05:13. > :05:17.suggestion is that she was having the voice coach sessions in order to

:05:18. > :05:24.prepare for that interview. Now, what is rather curious is that these

:05:25. > :05:29.were recorded by Peter Southland, a former Coronation Street actor and

:05:30. > :05:34.voice coach. As far as we know they belong to him. The tapes, which were

:05:35. > :05:42.filmed on a camcorder, then appeared, all were revealed, in Paul

:05:43. > :05:45.Burrell's house, that was Diana's former butler. They came to light

:05:46. > :05:50.when they were seized by police officers when they raided his house.

:05:51. > :05:56.But they were not used in court during his trial. No, because they

:05:57. > :06:01.were so incendiary. Mr Southland had a civil suit to try to get them back

:06:02. > :06:06.was not Diana's family, the Spencer family, eventually settled it out of

:06:07. > :06:11.court. The BBC bought them for ?30,000 or something like that but

:06:12. > :06:16.chose never to show them. NBC, bizarrely, showed the tapes in 2004,

:06:17. > :06:22.which seems to have passed all of us by. And now it is unclear how they

:06:23. > :06:26.have ended up a channel for it to BBC bought them outright. Channel 4,

:06:27. > :06:33.helpfully, have given us a statement. They are watching! Yes,

:06:34. > :06:38.thank you, Channel 4. The excerpts from the tapes recorded have never

:06:39. > :06:41.been shown before on British television and are an important

:06:42. > :06:44.historical source. We carefully considered all of the material used

:06:45. > :06:48.in the documentary and although the recordings were made in private, the

:06:49. > :06:52.subjects covered are a matter of public record and provide a unique

:06:53. > :06:56.insight into the preparations Diana undertook to gain a public voice and

:06:57. > :07:00.tell her own personal story, which culminated in her late interview

:07:01. > :07:04.with Panorama. This unique portrait of Diana gives her a voice in places

:07:05. > :07:08.at front and centre at a time when the nation will be reflect in on her

:07:09. > :07:13.life and death. Difficult, though, for her sums to watch, no doubt.

:07:14. > :07:21.Yes, very. I understand absolutely white girl Spencer -- why Earl

:07:22. > :07:25.Spencer does not want to see these go out. I understand that Prince

:07:26. > :07:29.Harry and Prince William do not want them transmitted. At I do think

:07:30. > :07:33.there is a public interest here. There is not. The idea that Diana

:07:34. > :07:38.speaking in her own words, telling it like it is, or at least how she

:07:39. > :07:42.saw it, I think it is important. But she was doing this in preparation to

:07:43. > :07:46.do her own voice in the Panorama interview. I appreciate that. Now

:07:47. > :07:50.that these tapes have come to light it does seem to me that both for the

:07:51. > :07:54.public interest and the historical record, it is quite important to

:07:55. > :07:58.have these things out there. But she chose to do an interview which was

:07:59. > :08:02.recorded, the Panorama interview which some of us remember, this was

:08:03. > :08:07.preparation for that. These are private sessions. They are not

:08:08. > :08:11.public property. Obviously we cannot know what Diana's wishes might have

:08:12. > :08:16.been. Given that she has been dead for 20 years and we cannot ask her,

:08:17. > :08:19.now that they have come to light and now that they are available, I

:08:20. > :08:22.think... But they have been available for a long time. 20 years

:08:23. > :08:26.after her death is probably the right time to have these broadcasts.

:08:27. > :08:31.I do not think it is in the public interest. They are private sessions.

:08:32. > :08:40.We are not going to agree. No. That's fine. Indeed. I am grateful.

:08:41. > :08:45.No gavel required. The Sunday Times, a couple of stories about Isis.

:08:46. > :08:50.Firstly, revealed, the life of teenage brides in Isis' "A little

:08:51. > :08:56.Britain". And ministers strip 150 jihadist is of UK passports. --

:08:57. > :09:00.jihadists. People being stripped of part of their dual nationality to

:09:01. > :09:05.stop them coming back to the UK from Barack or Syria. I think this is a

:09:06. > :09:10.subject for rejoicing. If you have people who want to come back and

:09:11. > :09:13.bomb us I am quite happy to keep them away. The way this works, it is

:09:14. > :09:16.if they only had reduced nationality, we could not do it,

:09:17. > :09:20.because it would make them stateless. So these are people with

:09:21. > :09:24.dual nationality. In other words, there is someone else for them to

:09:25. > :09:30.go. There are so many people here, and I think that we learned over the

:09:31. > :09:33.recent terror attacks of the huge number of jihadists in Britain from

:09:34. > :09:39.MI5. We thought there were about 3000. It turned out there were about

:09:40. > :09:43.23,000, and 3000 other ones they can try to monitor at the moment. And

:09:44. > :09:47.when one falls off another one goes on, sort of thing. If you imagine

:09:48. > :09:54.that the IRA, at its height, was about 600 strong, 23,000 people who

:09:55. > :09:59.actively wish us harm is hugely dangerous. Keeping out anybody who

:10:00. > :10:03.might add to that seems like the best policy. This picture is of a

:10:04. > :10:10.woman with her little girl, who lived in Raqqa, the stronghold of

:10:11. > :10:16.so-called Islamic State. She managed to escape. She was taken by her

:10:17. > :10:23.husband. He said he had a new job. They were living in Dubai at the

:10:24. > :10:28.time. A new job in Turkey. They were going to go there and then go to

:10:29. > :10:34.Britain. At instead they ended up in Raqqa as you say. Her escape, it is

:10:35. > :10:39.quite a shocking story of the house in northern Syria where the Bethnal

:10:40. > :10:46.Green schoolgirls who ran off a couple of years ago now, other

:10:47. > :10:50.jihadi rides from Bristol and Glasgow, the so-called White Widow,

:10:51. > :10:56.cheap talks about how these women, these young girls, were delighted

:10:57. > :10:59.about reading about themselves on online British news sites. They

:11:00. > :11:04.crowed over reports of terrorist attacks in Europe. She was very

:11:05. > :11:10.shocked about that. She managed to escape, her husband was killed, I

:11:11. > :11:17.think. It does show, you know, we are hearing stories last week about

:11:18. > :11:22.girls coming back. There was a young German girl, 16 years old, who came

:11:23. > :11:25.back, or who escaped. So you are getting very mixed messages from

:11:26. > :11:29.people who are going out there and seen, it was not what I thought, and

:11:30. > :11:35.this, which is quite shocking. Let's move on to the Independent.

:11:36. > :11:41.Government relaxed acid laws against expert advice. Yes, this is about,

:11:42. > :11:47.as we know, there have been a view rather frightening acid attacks

:11:48. > :11:50.where people in the streets, in London, have had acid thrown in

:11:51. > :11:55.their faces to no particular reasons. -- a few rather. Very

:11:56. > :12:01.damaging, in some cases like changing. This story is not a

:12:02. > :12:04.particularly new story, but what it is basically doing is saying that

:12:05. > :12:13.the government, the coalition government, in 2015, ignored advice,

:12:14. > :12:18.in their desire to burn red tape and cut bureaucracy, they basically cut

:12:19. > :12:24.red tape and got rid of the 1972 Poisons Act, against the advice of

:12:25. > :12:30.the Poisons Board, and doctors as well. What we do not know, because

:12:31. > :12:35.previously to this, anybody selling noxious substances like saucier

:12:36. > :12:42.custard and hydrochloric acid would have had to register with their

:12:43. > :12:46.council. -- sulphiric acid. What this does not say is, we actually do

:12:47. > :12:49.not know what acid has been used, but we have heard police officers

:12:50. > :12:53.talking about the kind of stuff you would find in your bathroom or

:12:54. > :12:56.kitchen cupboard. We don't know for sure, we don't know how it was

:12:57. > :13:01.acquired, but we are likely to see efforts made to have this made an

:13:02. > :13:04.offence. Yes, what seems to be happening now, because of the

:13:05. > :13:15.horrific attacks, and the number of them, because acid attacks are going

:13:16. > :13:19.up as people turn away from knives. Carrying a knife carries a five-year

:13:20. > :13:23.penalty, so this is the weapon of choice for people who do not want to

:13:24. > :13:26.do that. Amber Rudd seems to be putting back everything in place

:13:27. > :13:29.that was originally got rid of by the coalition government. The

:13:30. > :13:33.problem, really, and it is the same problem they had at the time, is

:13:34. > :13:37.that this is the stuff you do have under your sink. The idea that you

:13:38. > :13:42.would need a Home Office licence to bleach or bathroom is going to be

:13:43. > :13:47.some kind of problem. -- your bathroom. It takes a bit of working

:13:48. > :13:51.out but the important thing is to keep it out of the wrong hands. The

:13:52. > :13:59.Mail on Sunday. Revealed, London's shocking drug data. Statistics about

:14:00. > :14:03.how many were said to have taken some kind of banned substance while

:14:04. > :14:08.they were competing, or before they were competing, at the London

:14:09. > :14:17.Olympics. Scary figures. What we are talking about is out of 656 track

:14:18. > :14:26.and field finalists, 87 had at one point being caught doping. -- been.

:14:27. > :14:30.It is scary because we have the World Championship starting shortly.

:14:31. > :14:35.Presumably some of the same sort of athletes. It does seem to appear

:14:36. > :14:40.that the policing of this is not working incredibly well. Also, not

:14:41. > :14:43.only are they cheating bedfellow competitors, they are cheating the

:14:44. > :14:48.people who go and watch them. -- their fellow. Cycling went through

:14:49. > :14:54.this. They had to do a very big cleanup. Huge. Lance Armstrong, as

:14:55. > :15:03.we Ormeau, was using drugs and cheating right the way through. --

:15:04. > :15:06.as we all know. Five years ago we were basking in the glory of

:15:07. > :15:11.everything that the London Olympics was. It was great. What is so awful

:15:12. > :15:16.is that for the people who really worked their socks off, they may

:15:17. > :15:18.have missed out on medals and stuff like that, and who wants to compete

:15:19. > :15:26.with cheaters? It's not the same if you work hard

:15:27. > :15:30.and you are stripped of the title, you weren't there on the day to

:15:31. > :15:38.receive the title. The Sunday Times, let them eat pheasant says Be the

:15:39. > :15:43.Botham. This is Ian Botham, cricketing hero, Walker

:15:44. > :15:47.extraordinaire and he's a land owner and a pheasant shoot. He has joined

:15:48. > :15:53.forces with something called the country food trust. There are huge

:15:54. > :15:58.concerns about the number of people using food banks and there's a move

:15:59. > :16:03.within the countryside to provide people with cheap and readily

:16:04. > :16:09.available food, such as pheasant. Sue Reeve, known as Mrs very picky

:16:10. > :16:14.on Twitter, reminds us, there you are, reminds us that only non-

:16:15. > :16:19.perishable food is good for food banks but they have a coming plan to

:16:20. > :16:24.turn it into easy cook meals. Exactly. They don't have to hang

:16:25. > :16:29.them and pluck them. If you can do that it seems ideal. The hunting

:16:30. > :16:35.lobby are going to be pretty furious. Why? They don't like

:16:36. > :16:39.shooting pheasants and partridges. You mean the antihunting lobby? They

:16:40. > :16:43.don't like shooting pheasants and partridges. A lot of people go on

:16:44. > :16:47.corporate shoots and they don't even take them home. If the food is

:16:48. > :16:52.wasted then put it in a food bank. It's not just food banks, it is

:16:53. > :16:57.frozen pies and curries and things like that. Pheasant curry, I've

:16:58. > :16:59.never never tried that! There's a thought, Saturday night, Sunday

:17:00. > :17:05.lunch, not sure!
