:00:00. > :00:22.It says it's to avoid the economy falling off a "cliff edge."
:00:23. > :00:26.Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing
:00:27. > :00:26.us tomorrow. With me are the political
:00:27. > :00:28.commentator and journalist, Daisy McAndrew, and Tim Stanley,
:00:29. > :00:32.lead writer at The Daily Telegraph. Of course some of the papers feature
:00:33. > :00:38.Tropical Storm Harvey. The FT reports that the US State
:00:39. > :00:41.of Houston has been hit by "catastrophic" flooding
:00:42. > :00:43.as the storm caused torrential rains The Express focuses on what it calls
:00:44. > :00:50.Labour's U-turn on the single market, saying the party is facing
:00:51. > :00:54.a backlash from MPs after announcing The Sun suggests scientists
:00:55. > :00:59.in the US have found a breakthrough to prevent the risk
:01:00. > :01:02.of heart attack and cancer. The i also leads
:01:03. > :01:06.with the same story. They say the drug has been welcomed
:01:07. > :01:09.by the British Heart Foundation. The Guardian's headline is Backlash
:01:10. > :01:12.over Labour's shift to soft Brexit. They report that the move risks
:01:13. > :01:15.alienating thousands of voters in traditional seats who support
:01:16. > :01:17.greater controls on immigration. The Daily Mail, also reports
:01:18. > :01:20.on the new study which claims thousands of lives could be saved
:01:21. > :01:24.thanks to a new heart drug hailed as the biggest breakthrough
:01:25. > :01:37.since statins. The Times claims that a young
:01:38. > :01:40.Christian child was taken from her family and allegedly forced
:01:41. > :01:43.to live with foster carers where she was encouraged
:01:44. > :01:52.to learn Arabic. We will begin with that story from
:01:53. > :01:56.the Times. Tell us what has been claimed. It is a very interesting
:01:57. > :02:02.story. Controversial for many reasons. Controversial for what
:02:03. > :02:08.Tower Hamlets is being accused of and for the Times itself. It is an
:02:09. > :02:13.exclusive written by a fantastic journalist with a reputation for
:02:14. > :02:20.getting big scoops. There is a part of me that thinks there is more to
:02:21. > :02:24.this story than meets the eye. I suspect this is the beginning of a
:02:25. > :02:29.number of stories on fostering children. This fight here old little
:02:30. > :02:35.girl, you can see her on the front page, pixelated, has been placed
:02:36. > :02:40.into foster care, taken away from her mother, and pay for them was on
:02:41. > :02:47.family. -- five-year-old. They don't speak English all the time at home.
:02:48. > :02:51.You can see they were a burka. The controversy is people will think
:02:52. > :02:55.this is pandering to racist views. Why should you not have one religion
:02:56. > :03:01.fostering another when you come down to it, if the child cannot make
:03:02. > :03:06.herself understood, does not make herself heard, that is a serious
:03:07. > :03:14.problem and could be very distressing for the child. Then you
:03:15. > :03:22.come to the whys. Are then no white families, non- Muslim families --
:03:23. > :03:26.there no. You think there cannot be none in the area. They have not had
:03:27. > :03:32.problems in the past putting white children with white foster parents.
:03:33. > :03:38.It seems to me this is either the way from the Times of saying how
:03:39. > :03:45.many more stories like these are out there? Is there a greater scandal
:03:46. > :03:53.about fostering in Tower Hamlets? We will find out more. I have something
:03:54. > :03:57.to say from them soon. The Times has been told that across London there
:03:58. > :04:02.are several examples of white British children with nonwhite
:04:03. > :04:07.foster carers. This sounds like the beginning of a series of scoops. The
:04:08. > :04:14.question is, to what extent does this contradicts the children's act
:04:15. > :04:21.that requires before making any decision about a child, the local
:04:22. > :04:24.authority should give thought to the racial origin, religious background,
:04:25. > :04:33.and cultural and linguistic background. There is nothing wrong
:04:34. > :04:41.with a Muslim family fostering a white child. Of course not. It is
:04:42. > :04:43.about the law. There have been cases of Conservative Christian,
:04:44. > :04:52.politically conservative families, who have been denied the right to
:04:53. > :04:59.foster. Is this case like claimed? A child baptised in a church put with
:05:00. > :05:09.a Muslim family that do not meet the apparent standard return in the 1989
:05:10. > :05:15.act? And this particular Muslim foster mother has been saying things
:05:16. > :05:23.to this child like white women all drink too much, you are immoral,
:05:24. > :05:28.that is a quote. Tower Hamlets is saying this. We have a comment from
:05:29. > :05:36.a council spokesperson. We are unable to comment on individual
:05:37. > :05:39.cases, those subjects to court proceedings. We provide loving homes
:05:40. > :05:43.for hundreds of children every year and in every case we give absolute
:05:44. > :05:47.consideration for the background and cultural identity of the children.
:05:48. > :05:51.All foster carers receive training and support from the council to make
:05:52. > :05:54.sure they are fully qualified to meet the needs of the children in
:05:55. > :06:00.their care. If this foster mother has had this training and if the
:06:01. > :06:03.quotes are not true, it has not worked. The other thing that makes
:06:04. > :06:08.me feel squeamish is even though you cannot see her face, this is a
:06:09. > :06:13.vulnerable child, one with a difficult life already, on the front
:06:14. > :06:17.page of the Times. That makes me feel uneasy. If it is because this
:06:18. > :06:22.is a story that desperately needs to be told, I understand why. But it
:06:23. > :06:28.makes me feel... Is it not more than one family? I don't think so. They
:06:29. > :06:32.are concentrating on one but they say they have heard of others. I
:06:33. > :06:38.heard it was two Muslim families where this happened. They have
:06:39. > :06:43.apparently done through to households. Just to round this
:06:44. > :06:49.conversation off, we cannot verify it at this point in time. We put it
:06:50. > :06:58.out there because it is on the front page of the Times. This is another
:06:59. > :07:03.reason. It is Tower Hamlets. They have a very controversial past. We
:07:04. > :07:09.remember the man was sacked and the council stripped of its powers in
:07:10. > :07:13.the past. -- mayor. That makes it more newsworthy when something
:07:14. > :07:24.happens. The Express. The coverage of Labour's record U-turn, as they
:07:25. > :07:33.call it. The record on Brexit. They said they wanted to leave the
:07:34. > :07:40.customs union. But Kier Starmer has nailed their colours to the mast and
:07:41. > :07:45.say they support a transition period, one in which Britain stays
:07:46. > :07:57.within the customs union. They say it will last 1- for years. Then a
:07:58. > :08:06.new relationship will be created. -- 1-4 Labour is trying to carve a
:08:07. > :08:13.position which will win over Remainers and Leavers. However, the
:08:14. > :08:17.Express... We were saying this that several stories are reported
:08:18. > :08:23.differently in different papers. Most papers have, the same line,
:08:24. > :08:29.which is interesting. There will be a political cost to take this
:08:30. > :08:42.position. Many Remainers wanted this. But many UKIP voters and Tory
:08:43. > :08:50.voters and Brexit voters voted for Labour with the understanding they
:08:51. > :08:56.accepted the vote. Many voted leave from Labour. The Tories... It was a
:08:57. > :09:02.mixed picture, the selection. The Tories did pretty well in the north.
:09:03. > :09:08.It is good news in that it means we are back in a pre-election position
:09:09. > :09:14.where we know what Labour's position is. Wanting to stay with the single
:09:15. > :09:21.market. That gives the Tories an opportunity. It might be worth
:09:22. > :09:25.showing the front page of the Guardian. It is doing a similar
:09:26. > :09:32.thing. They are using the term soft Brexit. We will hear more about
:09:33. > :09:39.that. Any decision, announcement, is political. This is an especially
:09:40. > :09:44.political decision. The Labour Party has decided that things are shifting
:09:45. > :09:50.in a certain direction. Soft Brexit is now the way to go. The Labour
:09:51. > :09:56.frontbenchers were sacked, if you remember, for voting against hard
:09:57. > :10:02.Brexit, just a number of months ago. This is a huge U-turn and should not
:10:03. > :10:11.be written up as anything other. But if they believe there is a lot of
:10:12. > :10:14.buyer's remorse, regretful Brexiteers, they are wrong. The
:10:15. > :10:19.evidence shows people are not regretting it. If you ask them in a
:10:20. > :10:27.poll do you think the government is handling it well, anonymous lay no,
:10:28. > :10:39.65%. People would not vote differently. -- in an anonymous way.
:10:40. > :10:43.They could be looking to form a parliamentary alliance. They
:10:44. > :10:49.essentially have within Parliament, they are starting to manifest a
:10:50. > :10:54.2-pronged go, on the one hand to rewrite the legislation,
:10:55. > :10:57.safeguarding environmental standards and perhaps pressuring the
:10:58. > :11:02.government to say we will stay within the single market in the
:11:03. > :11:07.transition period. That is the first thing. Parliamentary action. The
:11:08. > :11:12.second thing is to try to make the case for a second referendum. Once
:11:13. > :11:16.the negotiations are over, Britain will get a second chance to vote on
:11:17. > :11:23.this. That will leave open the option for the status quo. But this
:11:24. > :11:26.man says that is what the single market means when it comes to
:11:27. > :11:30.politics in this country, it means... Most people would be happy
:11:31. > :11:35.to stay in the single market for purely a trading relationship. But
:11:36. > :11:40.most see that opens up the gates to mass migration. That is what they
:11:41. > :11:46.feel leaving the EU was about stopping. In the final minutes, the
:11:47. > :11:52.images in front of the papers from Texas. Very frightening. We have
:11:53. > :11:56.seen the moving pictures on this channel and others denied. People
:11:57. > :12:03.calling at the worst natural disaster to hit the States for many
:12:04. > :12:09.years. -- tonight. I heard earlier it was five dead, but that number is
:12:10. > :12:13.expected to increase significantly. We hope it does not. Even if it does
:12:14. > :12:18.not, the damage being caused to livelihoods and properties is
:12:19. > :12:27.intense. When you see these before and after pictures of how strong it
:12:28. > :12:37.is, it is extraordinary. It looks like a third World country. We just
:12:38. > :12:43.don't get those kinds of weather incidents. It remains to be seen how
:12:44. > :12:47.the president copes with it on Twitter. There has been talk of him
:12:48. > :12:55.going there on Tuesday. Interesting to see how that unfolds. That is it.
:12:56. > :13:04.Don't forget, all of the front pages our on line on the BBC News website.
:13:05. > :13:14.-- are on line. It is there for you every day of the week. You can see
:13:15. > :13:31.tonight's edition on line. Thank you. And now it is the film review.
