0:00:18 > 0:00:22Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

0:00:22 > 0:00:23bringing us tomorrow.

0:00:23 > 0:00:24With me are Kate Proctor, political correspondent

0:00:24 > 0:00:32at the London Evening Standard and the broadcaster John Stapleton.

0:00:32 > 0:00:35The Daily Express says that EU membership is costing the UK nearly

0:00:35 > 0:00:38£1 billion a month - almost treble the amount quoted

0:00:38 > 0:00:40by the leave campaign.

0:00:40 > 0:00:45The Metro has more on the removal of Kevin Spacey from an upcoming film -

0:00:45 > 0:00:51as the controversy continues over his alleged sexual misconduct.

0:00:51 > 0:00:57Priti Patel's replacement Penny Mourdant's leads on The FT-

0:00:57 > 0:01:00which has according to the fuelled pressure on Theresa May to carry out

0:01:00 > 0:01:04a big cabinet reshuffle.

0:01:04 > 0:01:06The Telegraph reports that the Prime Minister has told

0:01:06 > 0:01:09pro-European Tory rebels that she will not "tolerate" any

0:01:09 > 0:01:12attempts to undermine Brexit - as the Government tables

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Brexit is also the lead for The I - which talks about Brexiteers

0:01:15 > 0:01:18acceptance for a bigger divorce settlement and Downing Street's

0:01:18 > 0:01:21worry about voter backlash.

0:01:21 > 0:01:24The Guardian has more on Brexit - but also features a picture

0:01:24 > 0:01:26of Donald Trump and the Chinese President Xi Jinping

0:01:26 > 0:01:29on his tour of Asia.

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Kevin Spacey's career is in tatters according to the Times

0:01:31 > 0:01:33following the director Ridley Scott's decision to erase him

0:01:33 > 0:01:35for his new film only six weeks before its release.

0:01:43 > 0:01:47Let's start with Kate, talk to us about the Financial Times. Penny

0:01:47 > 0:01:53Mordaunt is on the front page as she is on a lot of the papers. As the

0:01:53 > 0:01:56replacement for Priti Patel after a very difficult week for the Prime

0:01:56 > 0:02:02Minister.It has been a torrid couple of weeks for Theresa May.A

0:02:02 > 0:02:07good week for a political journalist like yourself!It has been a busy

0:02:07 > 0:02:13time for recess. Penny Mordaunt has come in and she is supposed to be a

0:02:13 > 0:02:17breath of fresh air. New blood coming into the cabinet. By all

0:02:17 > 0:02:24accounts she is well liked by her colleagues. She was working as a

0:02:24 > 0:02:28disability is minister beforehand. Now she takes the role as

0:02:28 > 0:02:31International Development Secretary. I think it will be really

0:02:31 > 0:02:36well-suited to her. I think there was a little bit of disappointment

0:02:36 > 0:02:41that there was not a wider reshuffle. There is concern about

0:02:41 > 0:02:46Boris Johnson still and we still have some of those allegations from

0:02:46 > 0:02:51the sexual harassment.We will talk about Boris Johnson in a minute. But

0:02:51 > 0:02:56John, the express has a picture of Penny Mordaunt in her swimsuit. That

0:02:56 > 0:03:01is the picture they have chosen to use, what do you make of that?A lot

0:03:01 > 0:03:06of this is why not? She went like this, but she is probably better

0:03:06 > 0:03:10remembered for her appearance on Splash than anything in politics

0:03:10 > 0:03:15which is probably unfair but true. It was for charity which shows her

0:03:15 > 0:03:20as a good egg to raise money for a good cause. Why not I suppose? But

0:03:20 > 0:03:27the express being the express are using it as an excuse to run a

0:03:27 > 0:03:29headline making a splash penny and slash foreign aid. Something else

0:03:29 > 0:03:35they are very keen on and they can advocate on now she is in the job

0:03:35 > 0:03:43but I doubt very much it will. What she does is even up the balance of

0:03:43 > 0:03:46Brexiteers and remain voters and also keeps up the female camp to the

0:03:46 > 0:03:56Cabinet.The swimming costume is unfortunate because of this

0:03:56 > 0:03:59international role where she will be visiting countries all over the

0:03:59 > 0:04:04world where modest dress is more appropriate. I'm sure it is very

0:04:04 > 0:04:11unfortunate and she would not think hurts in days would end up on the

0:04:11 > 0:04:16front page.We mentioned Boris Johnson, the other Cabinet minister

0:04:16 > 0:04:23who has been in some trouble over the last few stays. The Mirror say,

0:04:23 > 0:04:28sack him, a minister on the brink. Eating she is still on the brink?

0:04:28 > 0:04:37Yes. There are such anger about his comments and I speak to her husband

0:04:37 > 0:04:44all the time and they are very concerned. He's misspeaking is very

0:04:44 > 0:04:51serious. The conditions that she is being held in our horrific. He did

0:04:51 > 0:04:56he did issue a qualified apology.He needs to explain those remarks at

0:04:56 > 0:05:01the very least. When he said she was their training journalists which

0:05:01 > 0:05:09have now been seized on by journalists in Iran as guilty. He

0:05:09 > 0:05:12needs to explain that remark. His so-called apology was so

0:05:12 > 0:05:18half-hearted. He said I appreciate I could have been clearer. It was

0:05:18 > 0:05:22abundantly clear what he said, she said she said was their training

0:05:22 > 0:05:28journalists.He did not say she was their training journalists, but he

0:05:28 > 0:05:36did say she was training...But those remarks were taken out of

0:05:36 > 0:05:42context... What context?Teasing he can survive this? Busy too big for

0:05:42 > 0:05:48Theresa May to fire?She is still wedded to the idea that Boris is a

0:05:48 > 0:05:52figurehead of books that and needs him because he has that power to

0:05:52 > 0:06:01draw people to Brexit and keep people thinking that it will be OK.

0:06:01 > 0:06:07-- figurehead of Brexit. Right now she thinks he is in asset.And how

0:06:07 > 0:06:17many sackings can she afford right now?We now have the Telegraph, I

0:06:17 > 0:06:21suppose this goes to how strong she is at the moment, or how weak is

0:06:21 > 0:06:27she? The word in Brussels is that she is being viewed as increasingly

0:06:27 > 0:06:31weakened...This is a move by the Government to say we will not

0:06:31 > 0:06:34tolerate any backsliding here. We have set a date and time believing

0:06:34 > 0:06:41and that is it. She does not want anyone to create amendments to the

0:06:41 > 0:06:44withdrawal bill, she does not want anyone using that to slow the

0:06:44 > 0:06:51process. She is saying, we want to emerge from this is a strong, united

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Government and we don't want any backsliding is.She is trying to

0:06:54 > 0:07:00assert her authority in a difficult time. Even if this amendment goes

0:07:00 > 0:07:05through and we have the Brexit date put into law. We still have to

0:07:05 > 0:07:09content with the fact of deadlock in Brussels. We're not hearing any more

0:07:09 > 0:07:15positive noises from there.On that, also in the terror group, Irish

0:07:15 > 0:07:22border demands threaten trade talks. It is pressure now from another

0:07:22 > 0:07:27country, Ireland is saying they want to know what is happening between

0:07:27 > 0:07:32the border. They want clarity on that before Britain continues with

0:07:32 > 0:07:36the talks. We have the EU wanting to talk about the divorce Bill, you

0:07:36 > 0:07:39have Ireland wanting to talk about the border, and right now we are

0:07:39 > 0:07:42still in a position of stalemate. It is another headache for the Prime

0:07:42 > 0:07:48Minister.Still on Brexit... It is hard to get away from it!What would

0:07:48 > 0:07:59you do without a?!The express is talking about our true Brexit bill.

0:07:59 > 0:08:05This is done by a high-flying city analyst who says the true cost of

0:08:05 > 0:08:13Brexit per year is 1980 million. Don't forget of coursea week...A

0:08:13 > 0:08:22week, sorry. He says the actual cost is 980 million. I suspect that

0:08:22 > 0:08:27figure will be challenged. To arrive at that figure he is thrown in

0:08:27 > 0:08:30everything but the kitchen sink. He has talked about adding the 12

0:08:30 > 0:08:36billion a year lost to the Exchequer of legal tax avoidance which would

0:08:36 > 0:08:41wouldn't happen if we were in the EU. He talks about the cost of

0:08:41 > 0:08:45migrants, a lot of people will challenge this, once the tax they

0:08:45 > 0:08:48have paid from the benefits, that is £30 billion a year for migrants.

0:08:48 > 0:08:54He's even throwing in the 2 billion that tax wastage of the EU foreign

0:08:54 > 0:08:59aid budget. Many people argue that many of those things should not be

0:08:59 > 0:09:04in there anyway and what about the rebate we get?On to the Metro,

0:09:04 > 0:09:12Kevin Spacey was once a Hollywood icon, and now seems to be a pariah.

0:09:12 > 0:09:17He is cut out of this film only six weeks away from release. He has been

0:09:17 > 0:09:21really edited and seminars brought into play his part.I do not have

0:09:21 > 0:09:26much sympathy for Kevin Spacey. The allegations are ongoing and he is

0:09:26 > 0:09:29being investigated. It this phone company had the means to write him

0:09:29 > 0:09:33out then you should do. How can you have a lead character with all those

0:09:33 > 0:09:37allegations hanging over them? That it's just the consequences of what

0:09:37 > 0:09:43has happened. I think they have made the right decision.It is probably a

0:09:43 > 0:09:47financial decision as well as a moral decision arguably because they

0:09:47 > 0:09:52do not want it on to lose money.I do not want to sound too

0:09:52 > 0:09:56controversial, I agree with you. But on the other hand we still had Woody

0:09:56 > 0:10:00Allen making films and Roman Polanski is barred from America but

0:10:00 > 0:10:08he still makes films that people watch. You wonder...Would you

0:10:08 > 0:10:12boycott Harvey Weinstein films?I probably would. I have spoken to

0:10:12 > 0:10:18other people my age who are unhappy with what has happened and it will

0:10:18 > 0:10:20factor into decision-making about going to the cinema. They will not

0:10:20 > 0:10:28see a film where someone has been accused of sexual harassment.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31Cinemagoers will make their views known and you may see impact on

0:10:31 > 0:10:41revenue.A quick word on the Financial Times, they have got

0:10:41 > 0:10:45Prevent. The Government's anti-radicalisation policy.This is

0:10:45 > 0:10:55a interesting story. New figures show that 7600 referrals were

0:10:55 > 0:11:02made...One boy was nine years old. A lot of these referrals are by

0:11:02 > 0:11:05people in the teaching profession and not the police. They are

0:11:05 > 0:11:12spotting signs of youngsters who are perhaps showing tendencies. You will

0:11:12 > 0:11:20also have to point out that this is not just people sympathising with

0:11:20 > 0:11:30so-called Islamic State, but also neo-Nazis as well. What they are

0:11:30 > 0:11:35actually doing... They can give you too much detail.Also in the

0:11:35 > 0:11:38Financial Times, diesel getting a tax rate in the budget?The budget

0:11:38 > 0:11:43coming up on this 22nd of November. Philip Hammond has got a big

0:11:43 > 0:11:47decision to make on how he goes forward with diesel cars. And the

0:11:47 > 0:11:52idea is that there might be higher taxes. That might be a higher rate

0:11:52 > 0:11:56tax or a different levy altogether. Or it might be a tax on

0:11:56 > 0:11:59point-of-sale, those are all his considerations for the budget which

0:11:59 > 0:12:04will no doubt interviews diesel car owners even more!Just a show in a

0:12:04 > 0:12:13minute we will show original countdown. Because BBC News 24 is 20

0:12:13 > 0:12:20years old today.Happy birthday!You have been around the scene for a
