:00:18. > :00:30.Good evening. Welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will bring

:00:31. > :00:35.tomorrow. I have a journalist from the London Evening Standard and an

:00:36. > :00:40.editor from the Daily Express. The Metro leads with the Brexit talks,

:00:41. > :00:43.saying a lack of progress led to both sides trading insults. The

:00:44. > :00:47.Daily Express says Michel Barnier is to blame for the Brussels stalemate

:00:48. > :00:52.because he refuses to discuss a trade deal. The Times reports the EU

:00:53. > :00:57.wants billions of pounds after Brexit for aid to Africa and loans

:00:58. > :01:00.to Ukraine. The Daily Telegraph says an investigation has been ordered

:01:01. > :01:09.into alleged exam cheating at private schools. The "i" says

:01:10. > :01:13.Theresa May faces from senior Conservatives over student loans. We

:01:14. > :01:17.will have plenty to say on that. The Guardian claims the gambling

:01:18. > :01:23.industry is using third-party companies to harvest people's data,

:01:24. > :01:26.helping bookmakers and online casinos target vulnerable

:01:27. > :01:29.individuals. And the Daily Mail claims one third of nurseries fear

:01:30. > :01:33.going bust because of the Government's new childcare scheme.

:01:34. > :01:38.Plenty to get our teeth into. Let's start with the story that has been

:01:39. > :01:42.raging all through the day in your paper, Michael. You can't bully us,

:01:43. > :02:00.Michel Barnier. You think a lot of feel that way? People like John

:02:01. > :02:06.Redwood in the Tory Party... Express readers will be thinking, because he

:02:07. > :02:10.doesn't want to talk about trade yet, they are still talking about

:02:11. > :02:13.the divorce bill, and it is always about the money in any divorce, and

:02:14. > :02:17.this seems to be the massive sticking point. It is not a fair

:02:18. > :02:24.headline, because he has a mandate from the other you take -- the other

:02:25. > :02:27.EU states to negotiate. He has to do this first before we can get onto

:02:28. > :02:36.the trade deal, which was set out along. They have to talk about the

:02:37. > :02:41.border with the Republic of Ireland and plenty of other things too, but

:02:42. > :02:50.a trade deal is quite far down their list of priorities. I think we will

:02:51. > :02:54.get this batting of heads anyway. They will say, you can't get past

:02:55. > :02:58.that, but we have to settle on the bill first we don't even know what

:02:59. > :03:04.the deal is. They haven't got a figure. We had a British trade

:03:05. > :03:08.negotiator earlier, a former one, who said no one will tell us these

:03:09. > :03:12.end points in the middle of a negotiation. You could argue,

:03:13. > :03:18.everything is moving to plan. Except the tone is problematic. True. I

:03:19. > :03:24.think the UK should have started, given that we kind of came quite

:03:25. > :03:28.hostile to the table, and the history was not a good one, we could

:03:29. > :03:33.have tried at the beginning to foster better relations there, and

:03:34. > :03:37.we didn't. The Times angle, the EU wants billions in foreign aid. It is

:03:38. > :03:41.part of the divorce Bill, things we have already committed to that the

:03:42. > :03:45.EU say, look, you have already committed to this previous to the

:03:46. > :03:50.vote and you should still pay the price for this. Apparently, our

:03:51. > :03:55.negotiating team have been looking through it legally and saying, we

:03:56. > :03:59.don't have to do this. Their site says we do. This is all coming to

:04:00. > :04:03.the fact that we want to give them some money, because we want to stay

:04:04. > :04:06.within the spirit of a new relationship, but we won't be held

:04:07. > :04:16.to ransom, and that is what they are trying to do. At the moment we have

:04:17. > :04:19.this batting of heads. While we are on the Times, look at that

:04:20. > :04:24.photograph. Did you see the footage of that arrow coming in and one of

:04:25. > :04:28.the Test match special commentators saying it had embedded itself in the

:04:29. > :04:40.ground, the batters were running away from the scene, an astonishing

:04:41. > :04:46.story. Rosamond, a story close to your heart. Yes, posturings. It's

:04:47. > :04:53.not often you hear that! I think it's quite tough being a student

:04:54. > :05:00.today. -- yes, poor students. If you are starting university now, this is

:05:01. > :05:06.the right that you are accurate ring before you start paying anything off

:05:07. > :05:10.whilst you are at university. 6.1%. Later, it depends what you are

:05:11. > :05:16.earning, what the rate is. This is the ceiling rate. We are at a time

:05:17. > :05:21.of low interest rates. 6.1%, I was going to say. Eye watering. They

:05:22. > :05:26.could get cheaper money elsewhere, but no one would lend to them. The

:05:27. > :05:29.student loans company say it gets written off if you get to a certain

:05:30. > :05:33.age and it hasn't been paid off. I wouldn't want that hanging over my

:05:34. > :05:37.head until a point in the future where it might go away. We don't

:05:38. > :05:42.know what rules might change. I wouldn't have been able to go to

:05:43. > :05:49.university if it had been like this. My family never wanted to get into

:05:50. > :05:52.debt. This is a bad thing. We have educated people into debt without

:05:53. > :05:56.educating them about debt. Lots of us have a natural aversion to it,

:05:57. > :06:00.but we have told students, don't worry about it, and I think this is

:06:01. > :06:04.worrying. The other point they are making that this is that it will

:06:05. > :06:09.cause chaos in the Tory Party. Theresa May yesterday said she wants

:06:10. > :06:12.to fight the next election, and there were hoots of derision from

:06:13. > :06:16.people, such as Nicky Morgan, the chair of the Treasury Select

:06:17. > :06:29.Committee, and she said this blow should have been soft and, and

:06:30. > :06:34.they've not done that. -- softened. There has just been a poll of 18-24

:06:35. > :06:40.-year-olds saying how few of them would ever consider voting Tory. Law

:06:41. > :06:44.is the only thing they think the Tories are better on. Another

:06:45. > :06:48.education story in the Telegraph, and this actually gets more

:06:49. > :06:51.astonishing is the more you read about it. It really is only the

:06:52. > :06:58.Telegraph that has been following it this week. Yes, there is an

:06:59. > :07:02.investigation being ordered into what they are calling a cheating

:07:03. > :07:08.scandal in private schools. Essentially, Annus put-mac an

:07:09. > :07:11.extraordinary situation, the teachers were setting exams that

:07:12. > :07:22.their pupils were taking. They were setting the questions. A really easy

:07:23. > :07:27.fix. A teacher can set them for other exam boards, but not for the

:07:28. > :07:32.ones that cover their own school. They are supposed to be a great part

:07:33. > :07:35.of our education system, and for their integrity to be questioned by

:07:36. > :07:39.this. They say this could spread to other schools. They don't know how

:07:40. > :07:43.far it has gone. The likes of eating are involved at the moment, but it

:07:44. > :07:46.could spiral out of control for them. With the amount of money

:07:47. > :07:52.people have to put in them, it is not great for private schools. What

:07:53. > :08:04.we think the parents are paying for? ! It is not the fault of the kids.

:08:05. > :08:08.You have to wonder, at a time when we talk a lot about social division

:08:09. > :08:11.in this country, you have got to wonder how large chunks of this

:08:12. > :08:15.country are going to feel about this. It will confirm every

:08:16. > :08:20.stereotype they have of these schools and the pupils who go to

:08:21. > :08:26.them. If you went to a comprehensive school, you will wonder, how many

:08:27. > :08:32.times has this happened before at a posh school? Lets do nurseries now.

:08:33. > :08:37.The Daily Mail... OK, this problem, we knew it was coming for a while -

:08:38. > :08:41.nurseries are facing a huge number of issues, and they had basic things

:08:42. > :08:45.like rising rent, and on top of that, they have the rise in wages

:08:46. > :08:48.they are paying because of what the Government calls the national living

:08:49. > :08:56.wage, and then on top of that, the Government says, you've got to

:08:57. > :09:01.provide an extra 30 hours a week, so they have raised the number of hours

:09:02. > :09:08.they have to provide, and of course, actually, councils don't pay enough

:09:09. > :09:12.to cover that cost. We know it is expensive for parents to use these.

:09:13. > :09:18.If you then take a whole load at the market, its problematic. It is

:09:19. > :09:22.almost as if it was done on behalf of. It was a great vote grabber, but

:09:23. > :09:25.it shows that a lot of politicians don't think things through very

:09:26. > :09:30.well, and this knock-on effect, which could knock out a few

:09:31. > :09:36.nurseries, it will create more pressure and make the problem worse.

:09:37. > :09:39.It drives up the cost of the other hours, because if they are providing

:09:40. > :09:45.30 hours were free, it makes everything more expensive. What do

:09:46. > :09:52.you think of Tony Blair and Jean-Claude Juncker having a kiss?

:09:53. > :10:00.They are very close! It is a love in. Some people are saying that is

:10:01. > :10:07.why we were right to get out - two men kissing. We have Michel Barnier

:10:08. > :10:11.and David Davies going at it, then this happening behind the scenes, so

:10:12. > :10:16.we may think something is going on that should not be. We all know what

:10:17. > :10:21.Tony Blair wants. Yes, he doesn't want Brexit to happen at all. The

:10:22. > :10:25.Financial Times, we shouldn't really, but we should feel sorry for

:10:26. > :10:29.the Americans because of tropical storm hobby, but we shouldn't feel

:10:30. > :10:37.sorry that their petrol will go up a few cents. A third of oil refineries

:10:38. > :10:42.are currently out of action because they are mainly centred in Texas.

:10:43. > :10:47.There is a huge one that will be shut for two weeks, so it will be a

:10:48. > :10:53.huge knock-on effect. They won't go for emergency stocks hit, but I

:10:54. > :10:58.remember in 2000, when there was a petrol crisis in this country, and

:10:59. > :11:02.how close this country came to anarchy because we could not drive

:11:03. > :11:06.around where we wanted to on demand. That happened in America... We might

:11:07. > :11:13.need to rethink our attitude to cars. European traders are

:11:14. > :11:18.scrambling to send more gasoline, and I have booked 45 enormous ships

:11:19. > :11:24.to send it out there. And they are saying this is the worst event since

:11:25. > :11:29.Hurricane Katrina. I doubt the price will soar too much for them from

:11:30. > :11:34.such a low level anyway, but they do like to fill up as much as they

:11:35. > :11:40.possibly can. We have about half a minute, if that, on the having to at

:11:41. > :11:43.the end. Princess Diana's death, tributes left at Kensington Palace

:11:44. > :11:50.on the 20th anniversary. Is the media getting the coverage right, 20

:11:51. > :11:59.years on? There is a lot of it. It has tailed off this week. With

:12:00. > :12:03.William and Harry doing things on Monday, it has been nice the last

:12:04. > :12:07.couple of days. The public, paying their respects at Kensington Palace,

:12:08. > :12:11.rather than all of us getting involved. We believe that there.

:12:12. > :12:15.Thank you very much indeed. Forget, you can see different pages of the

:12:16. > :12:22.papers online on the BBC News website. It is all there for you,

:12:23. > :12:28.seven a week. If you miss the programme in the evening, you can

:12:29. > :12:30.watch it later on the iPlayer. Thank you, Rosamond and Michael. From me,
