:00:16. > :00:18.Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be
:00:19. > :00:22.With me are John Crowley, Managing Editor of Newsweek Media
:00:23. > :00:27.Group and the broadcaster Lynn Faulds Wood.
:00:28. > :00:40.Lovely to see you. We will get on with our chat in a moment. First
:00:41. > :00:41.off, a reminder of what some of the front pages will look like tomorrow
:00:42. > :00:43.morning. The Telegraph says that the Brexit
:00:44. > :00:49.talks between the UK and the EU have descended into a slanging match
:00:50. > :00:51.with the EU's Chief Negotiator, Michel Barnier being
:00:52. > :00:55.called 'unhelpful'. Whereas The Times picks up
:00:56. > :01:00.the frustration of the other side in its headline: 'It's time to get
:01:01. > :01:04.serious, Brussels tells Britain'. The FT says that Theresa May is set
:01:05. > :01:16.for disappointment this week so the paper claims,
:01:17. > :01:18.the Japanese government won't rush The Metro reports that the driver,
:01:19. > :01:22.accused of killing eight people in a motorway crash on the M1,
:01:23. > :01:25.was twice over The lead in the Express is that
:01:26. > :01:28.arthritis sufferers, who take Ibuprofen for pain relief,
:01:29. > :01:32.are greater risk of high blood who take Ibuprofen for pain relief,
:01:33. > :01:35.are at greater risk of high blood The Daily Mail highlights the case
:01:36. > :01:46.of a five-year-old Christian, The Daily Mail highlights the case
:01:47. > :01:49.of a five-year-old Christian girl, who it says, was forced to live
:01:50. > :01:56.with Muslim foster carers. That is some of our front pages.
:01:57. > :01:59.Let's kick-off. We start with the Telegraph. It has all been about
:02:00. > :02:03.Brexit today, it is round three of the talks and Britain is not happy
:02:04. > :02:08.with Michel Barnier. I don't think this has descended into a slanging
:02:09. > :02:11.match, it started off a slanging match, remember Boris telling them
:02:12. > :02:16.they could whistle for money and Michel Barnier, who strikes me as
:02:17. > :02:21.being a very urbane, great example of somebody who is calm under
:02:22. > :02:25.pressure, he said the only sound I can hear is the ticking clock. We
:02:26. > :02:31.don't seem to be getting anywhere any fast -- very fast command to
:02:32. > :02:36.have yet another slanging match, there is also tough words being
:02:37. > :02:41.used, such small print on the front of the Telegraph I have to put on my
:02:42. > :02:44.glasses. A senior source in Britain says Michel Barnier's attack is
:02:45. > :02:50.inconsistent, ill judged, ill considered and unhelpful. What cards
:02:51. > :02:53.have we got to play in this game at the moment? It seems to me that
:02:54. > :02:58.Michel Barnier is saying, show us your hand, and we are saying, no, we
:02:59. > :03:04.can't show you are a handful stop what was the phrase David Davis
:03:05. > :03:09.used? Constructive ambiguity. The news is taking a pop at him because
:03:10. > :03:13.he accused Britain of ambiguity today. I think there is a bit of
:03:14. > :03:17.mudslinging going on. We were told last year to take back control, we
:03:18. > :03:22.didn't quite realised that this hard negotiating phase which we are in
:03:23. > :03:26.now, it is tricky, and whether you are a Brexiteer or remain, whether
:03:27. > :03:31.you agree or not, there is two very men staring at each other down the
:03:32. > :03:36.barrel, it is not thinly veiled taunts, they are stabbing each other
:03:37. > :03:39.in the front and it is all rather unseemly, to be honest. But also
:03:40. > :03:44.they should do it away from the public gaze, if humanly possible,
:03:45. > :03:49.because this doesn't strike me as helpful. I don't know what our cards
:03:50. > :03:52.are and I'm not absolutely sure we've got too many, because we've
:03:53. > :03:57.come at this unexpectedly and we were not really prepared for it, and
:03:58. > :04:03.they are saying things like, Michel Barnier is saying, we will be less
:04:04. > :04:09.secure because of Brexit and a British voice is saying that is
:04:10. > :04:11.risible nonsense. I don't think it's a risible nonsense. We will have to
:04:12. > :04:16.give leave the European defence agency, Europol and then all the
:04:17. > :04:21.French have to do is say we're not going to look after Calais and
:04:22. > :04:24.Dunkirk, we are just going to open the gates and let them all come
:04:25. > :04:30.through to Britain and it's your problem of the migrants want to come
:04:31. > :04:33.to Britain. You mentioned Boris Johnson and Wesselingh. I don't know
:04:34. > :04:37.if you picked up on the interview on radio for them I think it was
:04:38. > :04:42.yesterday, where he did concede, did say that Britain would have to meet,
:04:43. > :04:46.we will have to meet our legal obligations when he was pressed,
:04:47. > :04:52.bike, I think it was Mishal Hussein, about the divorce Bill. What do you
:04:53. > :04:56.make of that? There seems to be an acceptance that we have to pay. Will
:04:57. > :05:01.that open up the negotiations and the EU will say, let's move ahead.
:05:02. > :05:03.Michel Barnier is saying there are three pillars, three separation
:05:04. > :05:08.agreements that need to be done, the first on the divorce Bill, which has
:05:09. > :05:11.ranged from 100 million euros, the FT reported a few months ago, which
:05:12. > :05:20.is clearly not acceptable for the UK Government, coming down to 30 or 40.
:05:21. > :05:23.There is also the issue of Northern Ireland, the 310 miles border that
:05:24. > :05:30.the EU says must be solved before you get into the nitty-gritty of
:05:31. > :05:33.association, and that is obviously very close to the heart of people in
:05:34. > :05:37.Northern Ireland. My family come from there. People are extremely
:05:38. > :05:45.worried about it. The last thing, one more thing, they want to agree
:05:46. > :05:49.on, the EU says they want to agree on the fate of the citizens here in
:05:50. > :05:54.the UK from the EU and I think there is 1 million Britons in the EU, what
:05:55. > :06:04.happens to their status as well? It is unseemly. This is really... This
:06:05. > :06:08.is mudslinging. They should come it all down. Let's turn to The
:06:09. > :06:15.Huffington Post because we continue with Brexit. The headline here is
:06:16. > :06:19.this idea of a messy divorce. Barnier has always said we are going
:06:20. > :06:23.too slowly and I think having an election that cost us 120 million or
:06:24. > :06:27.something in the middle of all of this when we should just have been
:06:28. > :06:31.cranking on, the decision has been taken, get on with it, don't keep
:06:32. > :06:34.looking, which is the way it looks to me is happening in Britain as if
:06:35. > :06:41.we are not really getting to the point. And, of course, we don't
:06:42. > :06:46.blame them for saying, right, we want you... At the moment you pay
:06:47. > :06:49.towards a lot of the European institutions and projects we are
:06:50. > :06:54.working on and you can't suddenly cut off, you agree to them so you
:06:55. > :06:57.should pay towards them and the British are saying we are being made
:06:58. > :07:00.to pay twice because we are trying to leave the Single Market and we
:07:01. > :07:06.are still being made to pay into it. At the moment there is a stalemate.
:07:07. > :07:09.But who blinks first? That is what the constructive ambiguity phrase
:07:10. > :07:13.that David Davis has come out with is true, you don't want to reveal
:07:14. > :07:22.all of your hand all at once. This is a hard negotiating phase now.
:07:23. > :07:29.DfT, this kind of continues again, this is a Brexit trio for us here on
:07:30. > :07:34.The Papers, because Theresa May is hoping to start building trade deals
:07:35. > :07:39.in the background, but it seems as if she is hoping for Japan to meet
:07:40. > :07:44.her halfway. She is just about to go there. Yes, she is, two days. The
:07:45. > :07:52.big problem is we were helping Europe to have an agreement with
:07:53. > :07:55.Japan, and now we are saying actually, we are going out and we'd
:07:56. > :07:59.like to have the same agreement as we work helping Europe to have with
:08:00. > :08:03.Japan command Japan are saying we are a bit busy at the moment. This
:08:04. > :08:07.could be a good leak that we're not going to get very far with Japan,
:08:08. > :08:13.because the Financial Times is now owned by a Japanese company, so this
:08:14. > :08:19.could well be true and it seems perfectly plausible to me. If you
:08:20. > :08:22.are doing a deal with Europe, wait, join the queue, Britain, and then we
:08:23. > :08:28.will talk to you. I think she could come back empty-handed the way David
:08:29. > :08:31.Cameron came back virtually every handed from Europe. Japanese
:08:32. > :08:35.officials say their priority is completing the deal with Brussels,
:08:36. > :08:40.as you say, and they also say we can negotiate until Britain is out of
:08:41. > :08:44.the EU. I think this is what Shinzo Abe, Theresa May's counterpart,
:08:45. > :08:49.wants to hear from Prime Minister Theresa May. Very quickly, let's
:08:50. > :08:54.stay with the front page of DfT. I don't know how many housewives will
:08:55. > :09:00.be able to afford nearly $40,000 for a plastic bag. What is happening in
:09:01. > :09:10.Kenya? I am a bit allergic to the word housewife. I can multitask! But
:09:11. > :09:18.basically Kenya has become the fourth country to ban plastic bags
:09:19. > :09:26.and they have banned them, you get banged up in prison, $38,000 fine
:09:27. > :09:29.for something. They are talking seriously. Rewinder, a country that
:09:30. > :09:33.has had so much strife, has already banned them. And then I look at the
:09:34. > :09:37.high street and I still see people staggering about with plastic bags.
:09:38. > :09:42.For goodness' sake, people, get ones that you can put inside your bag
:09:43. > :09:58.that is reasonable, not plastic! Let's move quickly on to the Times,
:09:59. > :10:05.Christian girl with a Muslim family. Christian girl with a Muslim family.
:10:06. > :10:09.It sounds like a horrendous case. Apparently the child was sobbing and
:10:10. > :10:12.begging to be returned to the foster family because she doesn't
:10:13. > :10:15.understand Arabic. The girl is also understood to have said that she was
:10:16. > :10:22.regularly expected to eat meals on the floor. This story has been done
:10:23. > :10:28.by Andrew Norfolk, an award-winning journalist who broke the story on
:10:29. > :10:31.what is happening, and what happened in the child sex ring in Rotherham.
:10:32. > :10:36.We don't have an insight into what was said. There is a statement from
:10:37. > :10:42.Tower Hamlets. My only insight is what on earth is a council doing not
:10:43. > :10:48.spotting this one coming? Warning klaxons should have been sounding.
:10:49. > :10:52.We contacted Tower Hamlets council and they go back to us, and just to
:10:53. > :10:56.read out the statement: we are unable to comment on individual
:10:57. > :11:00.cases all those subject to court proceedings. The council's fostering
:11:01. > :11:03.service provides a loving and stable home for hundreds of children each
:11:04. > :11:08.year and in every case we give absolute consideration to our
:11:09. > :11:12.children's background and to their cultural identity. All of our foster
:11:13. > :11:15.carers receive training and support from the council to ensure they are
:11:16. > :11:24.fully qualified to meet the needs of the children in their care. That's
:11:25. > :11:27.the statement but something has gone wrong here. I'm going to guess this
:11:28. > :11:30.is happening all over the country and let us know if it does. This is
:11:31. > :11:33.one of the questions that the Times asks, if it is a one-off or if it
:11:34. > :11:39.goes further. I view pro Frank on the front of The Express, are you a
:11:40. > :11:42.fan of IB preference? No, there is a wonderful conference in Barcelona at
:11:43. > :11:45.the moment with the top people in the world talking about their
:11:46. > :11:49.research, but for the public this is so baffling. Only about two years
:11:50. > :11:54.ago we were told not to take these other painkillers because they have
:11:55. > :11:57.too many side-effects, just paracetamol, and now they say
:11:58. > :12:03.paracetamol has side-effects. We have got to be told as the public
:12:04. > :12:07.and what are the right... Wipe clean the board, on a piece of paper in
:12:08. > :12:11.every home, what are the best painkillers to use if you have got
:12:12. > :12:17.common conditions, and which ones you should not touch with a barge
:12:18. > :12:23.pole. John, surely most tablets taken to excess are bad for you? You
:12:24. > :12:28.don't even have to take them to excess, by the way. I'm totally
:12:29. > :12:32.confused I don't know which ones to take. That is my point. You do not
:12:33. > :12:36.know where to stand with these pills, you read that one is good to
:12:37. > :12:41.take one week and then that it is bad for you the next. There is
:12:42. > :12:43.something called Cochrane collaboration, the scientists review
:12:44. > :12:49.everything in the world, they should tell us what is safe to take. The
:12:50. > :12:53.Times, maybe this is the responsible we don't need painkillers, we don't
:12:54. > :13:00.need drugs, we just need to start getting fit and there is hope. And
:13:01. > :13:04.EU are never too old to get fit. Everyone should be out there doing a
:13:05. > :13:08.bit of something or other, and most people in Britain don't do much.
:13:09. > :13:15.What do you both do? I run and I walk. I walk, I have a fitness
:13:16. > :13:19.tracker that tracks my walking and I play football to a very bad standard
:13:20. > :13:23.occasionally. It says getting fit in your 40s and 50s could half your
:13:24. > :13:26.long-term risks of stroke, so some body at the younger end of that,
:13:27. > :13:32.that gives me hope that I can get off the sofa and perhaps even the
:13:33. > :13:35.more encouragement to get more fit. It says 100,000 people a year in
:13:36. > :13:40.Britain suffer strokes either through disruption of blood supply
:13:41. > :13:44.to the brain or bleeding within it. We can laugh and joke about our lazy
:13:45. > :13:52.lifestyle but it's important and you can do it now. What was that
:13:53. > :13:56.well-known... The Baker on the high Street. For breakfast I went to a
:13:57. > :13:59.baker that is popular in the North of England and is growing in
:14:00. > :14:04.southern England and had a coffee and sausage roll this morning. How
:14:05. > :14:08.many steps have you taken? 8000 steps running up-and-down the stairs
:14:09. > :14:14.here between different shows. Do you know how many flaws we have got?
:14:15. > :14:17.Just 2000 to go. It's not like the old step counters that sitting at
:14:18. > :14:21.your desk and you moved and it was half a mile. That is cheating. We
:14:22. > :14:27.will find out how many steps you have done. I will give you an
:14:28. > :14:31.update. For now that is it for The Papers, don't forget you can see the
:14:32. > :14:38.front pages of The Papers online, have a look at the BBC News website,
:14:39. > :14:41.it is all there for you seven days a week, bbc.co.uk/ papers. If you
:14:42. > :14:49.missed the programme any evening you can watch it later on BBC iPlayer,
:14:50. > :14:53.the award-winning iPlayer. Thank you to my guests. Next on the BBC News
:14:54. > :15:02.channel its meet the author. Stay tuned.
