:00:15. > :00:17.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

:00:18. > :00:25.With me are Henry Mance, political correspondent

:00:26. > :00:28.and public affairs consultant Jacqui Francis.

:00:29. > :00:30.Tomorrow's front pages, starting with...

:00:31. > :00:33.The i leads with Theresa May's battle to remain Tory leader

:00:34. > :00:36.after the party lost its majority in the election.

:00:37. > :00:38.The Telegraph reports a call from the Conservative MP

:00:39. > :00:43.Jacob Rees Mogg to cut stamp duty and income tax.

:00:44. > :00:47.Mr Mogg denies speculation that he is considering a bid

:00:48. > :00:52.The Daily Express leads with Brexit and claims of a possible second

:00:53. > :00:55.referendum following comments made by the former Labour leadership

:00:56. > :01:01.The Financial Times says that the head of

:01:02. > :01:03.the European Commission, Jean Claude Junker, is seeking

:01:04. > :01:05.for tighter controls on foreign takeovers of EU companies,

:01:06. > :01:09.following fears of Chinese dominance.

:01:10. > :01:11.The Metro leads with Charlottesville and highlights a picture

:01:12. > :01:15.of the alleged killer with a Neo-Nazi group at the rally.

:01:16. > :01:18.And the Daily Mail reports on an NHS battle to tackle early deaths

:01:19. > :01:32.We will begin with the Metro and what has been happening in

:01:33. > :01:36.Charlottesville. Trump swamped by neo-Nazi row. The Lincoln to condemn

:01:37. > :01:44.the bigots specifically, the groups like the KKK. It is just scary

:01:45. > :01:47.because it is almost deja vu. When Trump was complaining people said

:01:48. > :01:50.this was going to happen because when he was questioned about the KKK

:01:51. > :01:55.and white supremacists he dodged that and almost said, who are they?

:01:56. > :02:01.But they still around? Then what happened in Charlottesville he said,

:02:02. > :02:07.it is terrible, bylines on all sides instead of coming straight out like

:02:08. > :02:11.the governor has said and that this was a terrorist act and these were

:02:12. > :02:14.white supremacists. Why is it so difficult to say that? And then it

:02:15. > :02:18.turns out these individuals are quite happy saying the president

:02:19. > :02:22.actually a silent about this so that means they think he agrees with

:02:23. > :02:27.them. This is the President of the United States. The White House is

:02:28. > :02:33.defending him and saying he has been absolutely clear about extremism of

:02:34. > :02:36.all sorts. This is a question of leadership is displaying out and

:02:37. > :02:42.this hasn't had a huge amount of coverage in the UK and the question

:02:43. > :02:46.is what he should do when there is a neo-Nazi protest but also an act of

:02:47. > :02:51.white supremacist terror, one person has been killed and others injured

:02:52. > :02:56.in this event. Should the president get out there and give leadership

:02:57. > :03:03.and actively condemn those who may be seen as the cause and the

:03:04. > :03:07.provoking factor or should they offer attributed White House

:03:08. > :03:10.briefings? Comments by unnamed officials or even by the National

:03:11. > :03:15.Security adviser probably won't be seen as not by many America. It

:03:16. > :03:19.feels in some ways like the world has gone backwards when you see

:03:20. > :03:23.things like this. It was quite chilling to see them the day before

:03:24. > :03:30.the torches on the university campus. There are people in this

:03:31. > :03:39.country who can remember and that just has this almost deja vu, 2017

:03:40. > :03:44.and we are here again in 1935, 19 34. What is going on? The fact he

:03:45. > :03:49.won't, dim condemn them and people around him are doing the usual Trump

:03:50. > :03:52.translation which is he doesn't actually mean it but he doesn't say

:03:53. > :03:56.it but behind what you're saying, read between the lines. Between the

:03:57. > :04:05.lines: Mr President Trump, it sounds like you're them. Let's move on --

:04:06. > :04:08.supporting them. Stamp duty is featured quite a lot in the papers

:04:09. > :04:14.of late. Why are the Conservatives so the bonnet was Mike also Jacob

:04:15. > :04:20.Rees-Mogg himself. If he wanted to explain to them, the prospect of

:04:21. > :04:24.Jacob Rees-Mogg as a Tory leader Prime Minister is being taken

:04:25. > :04:28.seriously at since. He doesn't want that but if he did wanted this is

:04:29. > :04:34.what he would do. It is barely predictable that someone who is an

:04:35. > :04:38.old Italian, a fund manager on the front of the -- read of the

:04:39. > :04:41.Conservative Party thinks that government should cut taxes and give

:04:42. > :04:47.individuals control over their incomes and I think that is the

:04:48. > :04:53.standard agenda but Theresa May at her advisers don't think this is a

:04:54. > :04:55.winning strategy. The stamp duty idea is that if people want to own a

:04:56. > :05:01.house that might be putting of people moving or downsizing because

:05:02. > :05:05.it is such an extra cost for them. At the end of the day is this really

:05:06. > :05:10.about Stamp duty or is it about Jacob Rees-Mogg being the papers yet

:05:11. > :05:16.again. I think he does protest too much. Again I don't want her job, I

:05:17. > :05:20.am a loyal supporter of Theresa May, well, you know, stuff going on TV

:05:21. > :05:30.and stop talking about things and then saying, oh, no, not me, it

:05:31. > :05:35.isn't his job to explain policy and to champion of the Conservative

:05:36. > :05:39.stand for? He also about housing thinks that in the light of the

:05:40. > :05:42.Grenfell Tower disaster we should pull down the Starbucks and replace

:05:43. > :05:52.them with houses with gardens. I'm not sure -- pull down the tower

:05:53. > :05:55.blocks. The opposite of a solution potentially. David Cameron came into

:05:56. > :06:03.a lot of criticism when he was asked about what would have a grease.

:06:04. > :06:15.It's this about the EU but has been raised by the former Foreign

:06:16. > :06:18.Secretary David Miliband saying, the terms of the Brexit deal should be

:06:19. > :06:23.put to a second referendum. This is keeping popping up where he is

:06:24. > :06:27.saying I am not undermining the bug but took place but people really

:06:28. > :06:31.didn't know what the alternative was, and once the terms are agreed

:06:32. > :06:34.wouldn't it be a good idea but the people or for Parliament to get the

:06:35. > :06:40.chance to say whether or not, and it does sound it is going back because

:06:41. > :06:47.the idea that if they say no, so is that you tear up order they say,

:06:48. > :06:53.well, no but go back and negotiate more but we can't go that once we

:06:54. > :06:56.got the terms. And there is a time-limited all of this as well.

:06:57. > :07:01.The clock is ticking. We have to have the other 27 members of the EU

:07:02. > :07:06.agreed to the time period. This proposal is you have either a vote

:07:07. > :07:09.in Parliament or a second referendum but the alternative is staying in

:07:10. > :07:17.the EU. It is not crashing out of the deal which is the Government's

:07:18. > :07:20.you. How likely is it that either of those scenarios that David Miliband

:07:21. > :07:25.putting board will happen? There is no sign of that at. We talk about

:07:26. > :07:28.the very short period of time that things have to unravel but the

:07:29. > :07:34.Conservative government that the beer a realistic prospect. Yes and

:07:35. > :07:43.even an MP. Is he back in the country? He should stick to his

:07:44. > :07:48.well-paid job in a charity. Speaking of what will happen to the

:07:49. > :07:53.Conservatives, Theresa May has had a holiday. We suffer at the

:07:54. > :08:00.Passchendaele commemorations so she wasn't walking in Switzerland the

:08:01. > :08:06.whole time. -- we saw her. This looks terribly bad. It is actually

:08:07. > :08:09.staying on until 2020. You wouldn't expect a lot of voters who didn't

:08:10. > :08:16.support the Conservatives last time to want her to stay until 2022. What

:08:17. > :08:18.matters is whether she has the support because there to supporters

:08:19. > :08:26.and voters will stop at the moment she does and this poll actually

:08:27. > :08:29.shows the Conservatives backing her. They are a pragmatic party. They

:08:30. > :08:34.will keep her there while it is useful. Who would want to take over

:08:35. > :08:37.the party at the moment? Who wants to go through all the Brexit

:08:38. > :08:42.negotiations without the possibility that it is going to be successful?

:08:43. > :08:46.If as you say they are pragmatic, Jacob Rees-Mogg and others, I would

:08:47. > :08:51.stay in the background for a while longer just to see how well she

:08:52. > :08:55.does. Let's go to the Financial Times, Brussels seeking tighter

:08:56. > :08:59.vetting of takeovers to ease fears over China. Normally countries will

:09:00. > :09:06.say having foreign investment is a very good thing, a sign that we are

:09:07. > :09:11.a country on the up. But this is concerned about where investment is

:09:12. > :09:15.coming from. Yes, this is a concern about the fact that China might gain

:09:16. > :09:21.a technological edge by buying European know-how or heavily

:09:22. > :09:24.restricting the role of the EU, so it is China slowly cherry picking

:09:25. > :09:28.the best of our technology organisation and businesses and then

:09:29. > :09:34.telling the EU are but you can't do this and that, and also the EU

:09:35. > :09:38.looking at other countries what are they doing to try and safeguard

:09:39. > :09:43.their industries? But how do they go about bending off huge investment

:09:44. > :09:48.from China? If there is none anywhere else? You could get

:09:49. > :09:54.individual countries, Pieretto said the EU at the moment, to have at

:09:55. > :09:57.least policies to affect these investment and things are

:09:58. > :10:00.manufacturing, billions of dollars going into Europe and China. Or you

:10:01. > :10:05.could have an EU wide system. The problem is that China will look very

:10:06. > :10:11.negatively at anything which looks like discrimination against China.

:10:12. > :10:15.And they would say, and legally it is quite difficult to take action

:10:16. > :10:19.against one particular country. If and when you look at what happened

:10:20. > :10:23.in Africa, huge amounts of investment in China, some people

:10:24. > :10:28.say, there is no one else prepared to invest but others say Africa

:10:29. > :10:30.hasn't benefited. Yes, it is a double-edged sword. You need the

:10:31. > :10:34.investment and build up the infrastructure but the question is

:10:35. > :10:40.what is the ability to control your own resources once China get and if

:10:41. > :10:44.you decide to say thank you very much we have had enough, I doubt

:10:45. > :10:48.China will go, sorry, you would like us to leave now? We have been for 20

:10:49. > :10:51.years and rebuttal at the infrastructure and you would like us

:10:52. > :10:57.to leave, don't think so. Let's look at the Daily Mail. Apparently 7

:10:58. > :11:05.million others are going on diagnosed with heart problems. Early

:11:06. > :11:08.death is a consequence. This is a story that new government strategy

:11:09. > :11:14.is going to ensure that millions more of us are given the opportunity

:11:15. > :11:18.to have those potential problems checked out. The question is

:11:19. > :11:22.obviously around cost at a time when the NHS in England is struggling and

:11:23. > :11:27.says it said it doesn't quite enough my double bill of the obligations

:11:28. > :11:33.imposed on it. But it will ask local health authorities to ensure those

:11:34. > :11:44.identified ardour given correct treatment. Are they good for you or

:11:45. > :11:46.are they not? It is one thing being diagnosed with is that the money

:11:47. > :11:51.available to give you the best fitting that you want? Can you get

:11:52. > :11:54.the resources. At the end of the day it is something that needs to be

:11:55. > :11:58.done because down the line it will cost so much more of these

:11:59. > :12:02.individuals if they are not examined and advised at the best way to keep

:12:03. > :12:06.themselves healthy but it is the balance of trying to say now or

:12:07. > :12:10.later you have to pay for it. Prevention is better than cure but

:12:11. > :12:19.with these people if walking around, it might be me, you never know. You

:12:20. > :12:22.just don't know. That's look at the sun, page two, the death traps in

:12:23. > :12:26.your kitchen is the headline. Ten fires a day because of white goods

:12:27. > :12:33.like bridge features and washing machines. It is talking about nearly

:12:34. > :12:37.10,000 deaths in three years from various appliances and they're

:12:38. > :12:43.getting a little bit about the fact that the Grenfell Tower buyer. Ten

:12:44. > :12:51.by -- fire. It was started by a fridge. I am not sure, what are they

:12:52. > :12:55.calling for? In terms of these things are checked. Obviously goods

:12:56. > :13:05.are recalled when they are issues. Is it a story? You can see the is a

:13:06. > :13:12.picture of there, one of our possible paper reviewers, also

:13:13. > :13:16.consumer rights champion. She made lots of recommendations in safety,

:13:17. > :13:20.what has happened? I don't know the details of that review but it is

:13:21. > :13:25.interesting to see how Grenfell Tower has changed the debate around

:13:26. > :13:29.regulation. Until really a couple of wood so good this was all red tape

:13:30. > :13:33.that we wanted to get rid of it as quickly as possible and make it

:13:34. > :13:37.easier for businesses and now there is a recognition that there is a

:13:38. > :13:42.potentially lethal cost to making things, deregulating wings and

:13:43. > :13:48.cutting back regulations. The number of buyers the paper shows from these

:13:49. > :13:53.appliances has gone down marginally but basically the same thing 2014

:13:54. > :14:02.and 2016 washing machines are the most common of fire causes. I think

:14:03. > :14:05.we don't know the actual causes of Grenfell Tower in depth but I think

:14:06. > :14:13.they will be a new attitude towards regulation. Let's finish with the

:14:14. > :14:19.front of the Metro. Flying low, a picture of Marlboro. A good way to

:14:20. > :14:24.end, back on top as he allows out and stop he wasn't quite back on top

:14:25. > :14:27.yesterday. Silver. I remember there was a certain advert that said you

:14:28. > :14:35.don't win silver, you lose gold, which was... There he was running

:14:36. > :14:40.his five K that people do under part one on a Saturday morning. The end

:14:41. > :14:43.of an extraordinary career. Absolutely and it takes an awful lot

:14:44. > :14:48.for somebody to stay at the top of the game for so long. Certainly hats

:14:49. > :14:52.off to him and he is on his way to marathons that he is going to start

:14:53. > :14:58.doing? That is the natural thing to progress to. When was watching last

:14:59. > :15:02.night, he isn't a tall man at all but the length of his stride is

:15:03. > :15:07.really shocking and I don't know why I have noticed it before, but he is

:15:08. > :15:13.still being dogged by those scandals around his coach, Alberto Salazar,

:15:14. > :15:18.who was investing dated in the United States for dubbing and he has

:15:19. > :15:21.always defied -- denied he had done anything wrong and Mo Farah is

:15:22. > :15:25.saying it will affect his legacy and they are sick of defending himself.

:15:26. > :15:33.He was a bit tetchy talking to the media. He would probably say, I want

:15:34. > :15:35.to go out as a great champion, Sir Mo Farah, Olympic champion, World

:15:36. > :15:40.Championship medal winner and you keep asking about drugs. There is no

:15:41. > :15:44.escape from it at the moment with athletics particularly when we see

:15:45. > :15:50.people who have been caught cheating and then they come back. They have

:15:51. > :15:53.to do something about it because any kind of mention of drugs, an athlete

:15:54. > :16:05.will because we asked the question. That is it that this hour but Henry

:16:06. > :16:23.or Henri as it says, Jacqui Francis will be back again at 11:30pm.

:16:24. > :16:27.The It really has been a gorgeous day for many

:16:28. > :16:30.of us with lots of blue sky

:16:31. > :16:33.I hope you managed to get out and enjoy.
