:00:00. > :00:00.I will be back in the next hour on BBC News.
:00:00. > :00:20.Hello and welcome to our look at what the papers are
:00:21. > :00:23.With me are James Millar, political commentator -
:00:24. > :00:26.and David Wooding, Political Editor Sun on Sunday.
:00:27. > :00:32.Good morning to those of you. The front pages are here for us. Let me
:00:33. > :00:34.run them by you. The Observer says that the Prime
:00:35. > :00:36.Minister Theresa May is facing a revolt from remain supporting
:00:37. > :00:38.Conservative MP's over The same story leads
:00:39. > :00:43.the Sunday Telegraph with Tory rebels being told to back Brexit
:00:44. > :00:50.or get Corbyn. The Sunday Times also leads
:00:51. > :00:52.with a Brexit story, it says Theresa May has secretly
:00:53. > :00:55.agreed a 50 billion pound The Mail on Sunday claims that
:00:56. > :00:59.Theresa May ignored a memo from Sir Lynton Crosby
:01:00. > :01:01.telling her not to risk a snap And The Express front
:01:02. > :01:05.page has the news that Moors Murderer Ian Brady,
:01:06. > :01:07.who died in May, left presents to pen-pals
:01:08. > :01:28.including locks of his hair. James, take us to the Telegraph
:01:29. > :01:34.first. Tory rebels told that Brexit or get Corbyn. Parliament is back
:01:35. > :01:37.this week. The Great Repeal Bill is in front of parliament this week, we
:01:38. > :01:42.will get into the proper and meet and vegetables of Brexit. Tory
:01:43. > :01:47.rebels have been told back Brexit or get Corbyn, rather suggesting that
:01:48. > :01:53.Theresa May has not learned the lesson from the election in which
:01:54. > :02:00.she said back me or get Corbyn. She has got a minority government, the
:02:01. > :02:05.possibility that Corbyn... If the government falls, but the numbers
:02:06. > :02:10.are such that it will be fun and games over the next couple of weeks.
:02:11. > :02:15.A warning from Damian Green. David... Warnings going out today,
:02:16. > :02:19.Damian Green saying we should bury our differences and fought for the
:02:20. > :02:24.good of the people, the Labour former frontbencher Caroline Flint,
:02:25. > :02:28.saying put aside any thought of sinking the government and do for
:02:29. > :02:34.the people voted for. In the Sun on Sunday David Davies writes today,
:02:35. > :02:41.talking about how he thinks Labour are dry to hold down the Brexit
:02:42. > :02:46.debate in this House of Commons voting chaos which could come about
:02:47. > :02:52.if they don't get the Great Repeal Bill through. The problem with this
:02:53. > :02:56.is what a lot of MPs will be voting for is what breaks it was supposed
:02:57. > :03:01.to be about, ringing back control. The Great Repeal Bill will focus on
:03:02. > :03:05.government moves to try and sideline parliament and take as much
:03:06. > :03:09.executive power so we don't have to put thoughts before Parliament and
:03:10. > :03:12.the rebels, such as they are, want Parliament to have as much say as
:03:13. > :03:18.parliament which is surely the Brexit was about. It's the laws that
:03:19. > :03:24.were EU laws becoming UK laws but how much do you scrutinise the
:03:25. > :03:28.transfer process? This is quite sensible. When we leave the European
:03:29. > :03:33.Union in March 2019, we will take back control but there is all these
:03:34. > :03:40.laws which have wheedled their way into our lives, 70-80% of laws
:03:41. > :03:44.created by the European Union. Controversial statistic. Let's
:03:45. > :03:49.say... Other statistics are available. The Great Repeal Bill
:03:50. > :03:54.scraps of those as European laws and transfers them into the British
:03:55. > :03:58.statute books or they can then be altered. The row that arises because
:03:59. > :04:03.the Labour Party or Keir Starmer the shadow Brexit secretary says this
:04:04. > :04:06.will lead to ministers having the power to amend and altered these
:04:07. > :04:14.laws and things like workers' rights. He also wants crucially for
:04:15. > :04:17.the bill to stipulate that we could have an extended membership of the
:04:18. > :04:22.single market which means no control of free movement and also the
:04:23. > :04:29.customs union which of course means we can't do trade deals with other
:04:30. > :04:38.countries. Let's continue the Brexit theme. Meet secretly agrees ?50
:04:39. > :04:42.million breaks at all. What do we make of that? I love a secret on the
:04:43. > :04:46.front page because it's no longer a secret. Number ten denying this,
:04:47. > :04:51.suggesting they want to keep it secret. It's an interesting way of
:04:52. > :04:56.covering this. Some weeks ago we had the Telegraph saying 36 billion is
:04:57. > :05:01.the figure Britain is willing to pay, that's now gone up to 50
:05:02. > :05:08.billion, Brexit negotiations going on over, suggesting to me the EU is
:05:09. > :05:12.saying you have to pay more, the government is going to have to pay
:05:13. > :05:18.more. But it's being dressed up as internal Tory politics and all the
:05:19. > :05:23.rest. What's interesting, nobody has come up with a real figure, all the
:05:24. > :05:26.figures have been speculative, the European Union hasn't told us how
:05:27. > :05:30.much they want and we happened made them an offer they keep saying we
:05:31. > :05:36.need to settle a bill. The figure has been touted at 60 billion, but
:05:37. > :05:40.never crystallised. Never official. Somebody has told the Sunday Times
:05:41. > :05:44.that the government has drawn up a figure of ?50 billion but they are
:05:45. > :05:47.not going to announce it until after the Conservative Party conference
:05:48. > :05:50.because to say we will pay this much money to the European Union would
:05:51. > :05:55.cause a massive row at party conference and could topple Theresa
:05:56. > :06:03.May. After the conference they will announce this to sweeten the pill,
:06:04. > :06:06.all but three years, it will be about 17 billion a year and paid off
:06:07. > :06:10.by 2022, before the next general election. The figures and timings
:06:11. > :06:17.make sense, Downing Street saying a load of rubbish. They are hoping
:06:18. > :06:21.that no one will spot they are paying at over three years, still
:06:22. > :06:27.adds up to 50 billion. If that was a stab in the dark, it's reasonable.
:06:28. > :06:31.That Telegraph story a few weeks ago, was verified by three sources,
:06:32. > :06:35.this has been verified by one source, everyone keen to establish
:06:36. > :06:40.their stories are well sourced but no body is saying much else. If that
:06:41. > :06:45.was supposed to be secret and you point out it isn't, what is the
:06:46. > :06:49.motivation, do we think? For making it less secret. It is around
:06:50. > :06:53.confidence. The Tory conference is coming, we will get some of these in
:06:54. > :06:59.the next few weeks because Theresa May is week after her election
:07:00. > :07:04.gamble failed. And there are certain people who would like to see her no
:07:05. > :07:07.longer Prime Minister, people in her Cabinet and you will get a lot of
:07:08. > :07:11.people breathing and counter briefing to weaken her. Talking of
:07:12. > :07:15.her election, the front of the Mail on Sunday suggests she was warned
:07:16. > :07:21.about holding that election and did not follow the warning. Yes, there
:07:22. > :07:25.has been quite a bit of talk of a clash between who was to blame over
:07:26. > :07:33.the selection shambles, whether it was Lynton Crosby, the pollster, the
:07:34. > :07:37.big election winning Australian, known as the wizard of Oz because of
:07:38. > :07:44.his great success and the gang known as was beaten, the formerly bearded,
:07:45. > :07:47.Nick Timothy, one of the joint chiefs of staff. There has been a
:07:48. > :07:53.lot of counter blaming but the leaking of this note says that
:07:54. > :07:58.Lynton Crosby says, the research had shown there was a lot of risk in
:07:59. > :08:02.holding an early election, voters actively seeking to avoid
:08:03. > :08:06.uncertainty and by creating uncertainty it might run against it
:08:07. > :08:11.and of the election was held today there is a risk it could go back to
:08:12. > :08:14.the Parliament of 2015. What's curious, people will remember the
:08:15. > :08:19.opinion polls when she decided to call the election and they were
:08:20. > :08:25.resoundingly in her favour. It's interesting, the memo, as you say,
:08:26. > :08:30.the important bit is it says voters want stability and having an
:08:31. > :08:33.election is not stability, as the memo says. Folders show a clear
:08:34. > :08:37.preference for Theresa May but that means they think they can vote for
:08:38. > :08:44.whoever they want and Jeremy Corbyn will not get into number ten and the
:08:45. > :08:47.way things played out suggest that this was bang on, people did think,
:08:48. > :08:52.I will vote for a good local MP and Jeremy Corbyn ends up with a lot
:08:53. > :08:57.more MPs than any of us, including himself, were expecting. The other
:08:58. > :09:04.bit of interesting detail, when one of Theresa May's aides ran that a
:09:05. > :09:08.brand Lynton Crosby with the date, he said apparently, I am not so sure
:09:09. > :09:14.that is a smart idea, mate. Good idea. Let's move on. The Sunday
:09:15. > :09:17.Telegraph, let's go back to that. This is a story towards the bottom
:09:18. > :09:23.of the front page, stop scaring older mothers and it quotes
:09:24. > :09:28.Professor Cathy Warwick, from the Royal College of Midwives. I was
:09:29. > :09:33.think about three men in suits sitting around and talking about
:09:34. > :09:39.childbirth... It is interesting. What she says, the longer you wait
:09:40. > :09:46.to have children there are certain risk factors that go up but what
:09:47. > :09:51.Professor Cathy Warwick suggests is that the risk goes up by a small
:09:52. > :09:56.amount, how significant is that? Is it overplayed? She says I am not
:09:57. > :10:00.sure why we are so worried and I am not sure we should be terrifying
:10:01. > :10:03.woman about it. Well... I suggested something to do with the patriarch
:10:04. > :10:09.if you want to go into that, that level of staff. Why do we constantly
:10:10. > :10:14.terrify women by biological clocks and all that sort of thing?
:10:15. > :10:19.Regularly. I suspect this is one of the reasons behind it. Quite a bit
:10:20. > :10:24.in there about the overzealous promotion of so-called natural
:10:25. > :10:29.childbirth, some others being purged to have no medical intervention
:10:30. > :10:36.whatsoever, of course each breath is completely different and has to be
:10:37. > :10:42.taken as such. The Sunday express, let's pick some stories from there.
:10:43. > :10:48.Page two, exclusive, can't specialist says NHS tourists cost ?2
:10:49. > :10:55.billion a year. It's the running controversy of health tourism --
:10:56. > :10:59.tourism, as it is dubbed, people coming to Britain to have free
:11:00. > :11:02.nonurgent medical care like hip replacements and cataract
:11:03. > :11:06.operations. A consultant at the Royal Marsden Hospital, cancer
:11:07. > :11:12.specialist, says one in 20 cases that come to the hospital are health
:11:13. > :11:18.tourists and of course, the big problem is, we don't claim the money
:11:19. > :11:21.back. If you come here from a foreign country to have routine
:11:22. > :11:26.surgery of some kind your government or you yourself should pay that back
:11:27. > :11:32.and the problem is that the NHS don't seem to chase it. He says
:11:33. > :11:35.doctors are not equipped to look at people's passports and know whether
:11:36. > :11:43.somebody is a foreign health tourism or not. But of course in my view,
:11:44. > :11:45.there are flaws and -- floors and floors at health managers and
:11:46. > :11:50.officials who could do this. But isn't that the problem? Not enough,
:11:51. > :11:54.a lot of hospitals employ someone specifically to work out who is
:11:55. > :11:58.entitled to what and to reclaim the money. And of course, if they do,
:11:59. > :12:04.certain newspapers will say, look at all the managers in the NHS, why
:12:05. > :12:09.don't they spend that on nurses? It is worth pointing out that Graham
:12:10. > :12:13.Thomas is a controversial character, been in the papers a few times over
:12:14. > :12:18.the years. Just one point, makes reference to what the government
:12:19. > :12:21.hopes to recoup by introducing new -- new measures next month, some
:12:22. > :12:26.debate as to whether that will make a difference. 500 million a year, I
:12:27. > :12:33.think? These figures get handed about. Figures on paper, if someone
:12:34. > :12:37.turns up, they talk about the Lagos shuttle of pregnant women who turn
:12:38. > :12:41.up from Nigeria, someone turns up at a hospital saying I am about to have
:12:42. > :12:46.a baby, you can say to them you don't have the right passport,
:12:47. > :12:54.Galway, what do you do? It's all about the mix of efficiency. -- go
:12:55. > :13:00.away. Reform and funding. You cannot just divorce one from the other. I
:13:01. > :13:04.should say the Royal Marsden declined to comment on that piece.
:13:05. > :13:09.Alongside it, page three, my career has gone West, he was the future
:13:10. > :13:20.once now Cameron is booked to speak in the wilds of South Dakota to a ?5
:13:21. > :13:25.ahead crowd. David, take us there. This was the man who was in number
:13:26. > :13:29.ten, David, David who? He is in rapid city in the heart of the wild
:13:30. > :13:34.West, students paying the equivalent of ?2 50 to hear him speak and those
:13:35. > :13:39.in non-concession are paying $7 or five quid to hear the Prime
:13:40. > :13:46.Minister. It shows you how life moves on and compared with the likes
:13:47. > :13:55.of Tony Blair, raking in a fortune, even Gordon Brown who gives it
:13:56. > :14:00.straight... Read further down, Mr Cameron has not done badly out of
:14:01. > :14:10.one or two previous... And we don't know how much he is earning, it says
:14:11. > :14:16.this actually pays the speakers but doesn't reveal how much it pays
:14:17. > :14:22.them. Mrs Thatcher spoke, Colin Powell, Benazir Bhutto, they are not
:14:23. > :14:27.getting paid just what they make the door, they get paid a significant
:14:28. > :14:31.fee to turn up. I was to say... Not making so much out of that. ?100,000
:14:32. > :14:36.publishing deal has been struck, compared with Tony Blair or Margaret
:14:37. > :14:42.Thatcher, significantly lower. Apparently Tony Blair made for .6
:14:43. > :14:47.million, Thatcher three and a half million. One more, let's go to the
:14:48. > :14:55.Observer and its front page. Fixed odds betting, quite a lot of concern
:14:56. > :15:08.about terminals, there is talk of a clamp-down. Yes, the crack cocaine
:15:09. > :15:12.of the betting world, super puggies as they are known in Scotland. You
:15:13. > :15:15.can lose huge amounts of money on these and the government keeps
:15:16. > :15:20.saying it will do something about them but it slightly smacks of the
:15:21. > :15:24.government not having a huge amount to talk about. A lot of Brexit
:15:25. > :15:27.talking up, yesterday talking about holes in the road, they are going
:15:28. > :15:32.fixed on betting terminals. We are expecting something in the summer,
:15:33. > :15:36.classic government definition is now getting pushed back to October.
:15:37. > :15:40.Whether that is something that will happen or not, it just smacks to me
:15:41. > :15:46.of the government saying something to put in the papers. As one of
:15:47. > :15:51.these issues are lot of people will be saying I told you so. In the
:15:52. > :15:54.Blair years betting regulations were relaxed as were drinking
:15:55. > :15:58.regulations, people feel maybe they went too far, the balance has been
:15:59. > :16:06.redressed. As you say, it's quite striking. Make a stake of up to ?120
:16:07. > :16:09.every few seconds, a player could potentially gamble away ?18,000
:16:10. > :16:19.every hour. Not good for anybody. Good for the Treasury. Some betting
:16:20. > :16:20.shops make after earnings from these now. Rather than the horses. That
:16:21. > :16:26.said that the papers, -- Just a reminder we take a look
:16:27. > :16:34.at tomorrow's front pages every evening at 10.40pm
:16:35. > :16:51.here on BBC News. bed of a mixed day across the UK,
:16:52. > :16:53.enjoying some bright weather but in the West some thick cloud. That
