0:00:19 > 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 > 0:00:26With me are Paul Johnson, Deputy Editor of The Guardian,
0:00:26 > 0:00:28and Lynn Davidson, Whitehall Correspondent at The Sun.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31Tomorrow's front pages, starting with...
0:00:31 > 0:00:32The Guardian leads with Donald Trump's recognition
0:00:32 > 0:00:35of Jerusalem as Israel's capital and his plans to move the US Embassy
0:00:35 > 0:00:39there from Tel Aviv.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42The paper also looks at the growing pressure Theresa May is facing
0:00:42 > 0:00:44to strike a deal over Brexit.
0:00:44 > 0:00:50Brexit is also on the front page of The I which takes a look
0:00:50 > 0:00:53at the ins and outs of the talks, from Philip Hammond and the divorce
0:00:53 > 0:00:57bill, to David Davis and his lack of impact assessments.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00The Telegraph says Jean Claude Juncker fears the UK
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Government might collapse next week, if a breakthrough in
0:01:02 > 0:01:04the Brexit talks isn't found.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07The Metro leads with the story of a man arrested after a brawl
0:01:07 > 0:01:10in a Westminster bar on the Parliamentary estate.
0:01:10 > 0:01:13The Mirror leads with reports of a plot
0:01:13 > 0:01:15against Prince George with a story about a man who's
0:01:15 > 0:01:17appeared in court accused of allegedly urging jihadis
0:01:17 > 0:01:25to attack the young Prince at school.
0:01:25 > 0:01:33The Financial Times reports on plans by a UK shopping centre owner
0:01:33 > 0:01:35to mitigate against a high street slowdown, as retail
0:01:35 > 0:01:38sales shift online.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43The Times has the story of a shortage of medicines which is
0:01:43 > 0:01:45forcing some cancer patients and those with severe mental health
0:01:45 > 0:01:49issues to be turned away from pharmacies and the Daily Express is
0:01:49 > 0:01:53concerned about the imminent arrival of Storm Caroline and her 90 mph
0:01:53 > 0:01:58gusts.
0:01:58 > 0:02:04Let's start with the front page of the Guardian, anger as Trump
0:02:04 > 0:02:08declared Jerusalem as Israel's capital. This was a story widely
0:02:08 > 0:02:12anticipated but there has been shocked nonetheless.There has been
0:02:12 > 0:02:17because it is an extraordinary story. Who on the globe could unite
0:02:17 > 0:02:24the Pope, the UN, China, Russia, France, Germany, Britain, Egypt,
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Turkey, Iran and Saudi Arabia? Only one person and that is what Donald
0:02:28 > 0:02:33Trump did today. One of our commentators called it an act of
0:02:33 > 0:02:36diplomatic arson and the KSR he is potentially going to create, he has
0:02:36 > 0:02:42fumbled his way into what is a geopolitical hotspot -- the chaos.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46There is an agreement on one side about this needs to be approached
0:02:46 > 0:02:49and done and he has driven a bulldozer through it which is
0:02:49 > 0:02:58extraordinary.Any nuance to the story?If there is it is hard to see
0:02:58 > 0:03:03it. We need to look at the immediate reaction from world leaders that
0:03:03 > 0:03:07came and it did not take our own Prime Minister long to say she
0:03:07 > 0:03:11disagreed entirely with the position and it was really unhelpful to the
0:03:11 > 0:03:16political process and the peace process which is very delicate out
0:03:16 > 0:03:23there.And we have seen pictures this evening of protests in Gaza,
0:03:23 > 0:03:27peaceful protests that there is more to come to a general strike
0:03:27 > 0:03:32tomorrow.Jerusalem is one of the most sensitive spots in the world,
0:03:32 > 0:03:37the holiest site in Judaism, the third most important mosque and a
0:03:37 > 0:03:43hugely significant place to Christians. It was always proposed
0:03:43 > 0:03:48during the peace process that it would be a last stage negotiation,
0:03:48 > 0:03:52direct party to party and Donald Trump has ripped that up and walked
0:03:52 > 0:03:58straight in. In our own story, this will destroy any hopes that the US
0:03:58 > 0:04:02has of being an honest broker and the Palestinians have said that
0:04:02 > 0:04:05tonight, you will not be up to play as an honest broker and you are
0:04:05 > 0:04:10throwing the whole region into international chaos.Moving on,
0:04:10 > 0:04:15although that is a huge story, not many of the papers have it on their
0:04:15 > 0:04:22front page but what most of them do have is Brexit. In the Daily
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Telegraph, Theresa May will fall without a deal once the EU.The
0:04:25 > 0:04:34Daily Telegraph have led with fears of Jon Ford YouGov -- Jean-Claude
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Juncker perhaps worrying about his own position if he does not achieve
0:04:37 > 0:04:46a deal with Britain, running up to the December the 14th crunch summit.
0:04:46 > 0:04:52What he is speaking about is his fears about the position of Theresa
0:04:52 > 0:04:55May in government here and the worry is that the government could
0:04:55 > 0:05:02collapse. We saw some bookies yesterday slashing the odds of
0:05:02 > 0:05:04another general election imminently which I am sure will strike fear
0:05:04 > 0:05:10into the entire country more than anything! David Davis, there have
0:05:10 > 0:05:15been rumours of him plotting to take the top job with people giving him
0:05:15 > 0:05:19support and some of his supporters moving around but the butt and your
0:05:19 > 0:05:20own paper has that story.
0:05:22 > 0:05:30-- moving around...Some people fear she is a a precarious position and
0:05:30 > 0:05:33I'm sure that the majority of Tory MPs don't feel that as anyone else
0:05:33 > 0:05:37to steer them through these times. Many have said that her weakness is
0:05:37 > 0:05:45a strength. The front page of The Times, staying on Brexit, two big
0:05:45 > 0:05:50cabinet ministers making the paper and they concentrate on comments by
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Philip Hammond.Slightly curious in that it is interesting that he has
0:05:54 > 0:05:57got himself in a bit more hot water which is becoming a familiar
0:05:57 > 0:06:05scenario for him. Most of the other attention today has been on David
0:06:05 > 0:06:10Davis. There were some good quotes from Jacob Rees-Mogg saying he was
0:06:10 > 0:06:17worried on Monday, meltdown Monday when we had a deal and then a leak
0:06:17 > 0:06:20and then anger and recrimination and then chaos and farce and he said he
0:06:20 > 0:06:26was worried about Timmis a's redlines so he got some paint out --
0:06:26 > 0:06:30Theresa May's red lines. She does not just have problems with the
0:06:30 > 0:06:36Irish and the DUP who took 24 hours to take a call from the Prime
0:06:36 > 0:06:41Minister. She has got the EU apparently bewildered over this and
0:06:41 > 0:06:45real problems, mutterings from the Cabinet, but city is trying to
0:06:45 > 0:06:48stiffen her spine and the other group who have come out tonight, 20
0:06:48 > 0:06:52MPs saying don't walk away without a deal -- Brexiteers trying. This is
0:06:52 > 0:07:01all tightrope stuff.The front page of The Times as Philip Hammond's
0:07:01 > 0:07:05comments that Britain could be paying £40 billion even if the trade
0:07:05 > 0:07:11talks fail, and you get the inside page and his colleague, David Davis,
0:07:11 > 0:07:18not looking too happy.No! The picture tells a thousand words as
0:07:18 > 0:07:21they say also to hark back to Philip Hammond, what he is guilty of is
0:07:21 > 0:07:27being too honest. The problem for him recently has been that he speaks
0:07:27 > 0:07:31his mind and tell it as it is and that is difficult in politics!
0:07:31 > 0:07:36Sometimes you wonder how he has got this far by being so honest. David
0:07:36 > 0:07:40Davis was in front of the Commons Brexit, he first thing this morning
0:07:40 > 0:07:46and these pictures were on the televisions from this morning. He
0:07:46 > 0:07:52had a very difficult time when he revealed about impact assessments
0:07:52 > 0:08:01which I think a lot of people were underway now it appears not so.This
0:08:01 > 0:08:06is completely bewildering, a sequence of events where the
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Secretary of State for exiting the EU says we have done the impact
0:08:09 > 0:08:14papers in fine detail and Parliament says, can we see them, and he says
0:08:14 > 0:08:18they are secret, and Parliament has do see them but they relax them. He
0:08:18 > 0:08:21hands them over and Parliament looks at them and said you have not done
0:08:21 > 0:08:26any impact assessment after all and he says no, we haven't. The civil
0:08:26 > 0:08:30service did not do a good job and we will do them later. It is almost
0:08:30 > 0:08:35like a scene from Yes, Minister, apart from Brexit is the most
0:08:35 > 0:08:38fundamental economic position we will take in our generation and the
0:08:38 > 0:08:47idea that these assessments are drifting off and the government
0:08:47 > 0:08:50doesn't really know what the impact of Brexit will be or has not even
0:08:50 > 0:08:53tried to find out sector by sector is bewildering. He has been show up
0:08:53 > 0:08:55today to be at best a bluff and certainly people in Labour think it
0:08:55 > 0:09:02is worse than that and are seeking a condemnation within Parliament.And
0:09:02 > 0:09:06in a sense, what he was saying was backed up by Philip Hammond who said
0:09:06 > 0:09:11there had not been a full Cabinet discussion of what the end Brexit
0:09:11 > 0:09:18deal should look like.We ran a story a few months ago with James
0:09:18 > 0:09:23Forsyth saying the same thing, essentially that the Cabinet has not
0:09:23 > 0:09:28set out their end state position. A few months ago they had initial
0:09:28 > 0:09:31talks and that was shelved for the meantime and I think that is because
0:09:31 > 0:09:35it is a pretty difficult one but it would seem quite preposterous to
0:09:35 > 0:09:42think that the Cabinet are not all whole the United and with a vision
0:09:42 > 0:09:48for Brexit and knowing what it is on this position 18 months on from the
0:09:48 > 0:09:54Brexit Road.One more Brexit front page on the Financial Times which is
0:09:54 > 0:10:02the other dimension to the Brexit Astori -- from the Brexit vote. This
0:10:02 > 0:10:06is the Irish border with the Irish premier raising the prospect of
0:10:06 > 0:10:10Brexit divorce talks stretching into the New Year if there is no
0:10:10 > 0:10:15agreement next week. Some think that means that the Irish premier is
0:10:15 > 0:10:19threatening to use his veto next week if he is not happy with the
0:10:19 > 0:10:24plan for the border.The phrase regulatory alignment has been on
0:10:24 > 0:10:27everybody's lips and many people have been getting out the thesaurus
0:10:27 > 0:10:32to see what it means but it seems they had to persuade the DUP that
0:10:32 > 0:10:36regulatory alignment is not the same as being in the single market and
0:10:36 > 0:10:41the customs union. Whether they can do that or not is unclear. The DUP
0:10:41 > 0:10:47usually comes to the table but we'll sort of spin this out. They have a
0:10:47 > 0:10:55great deal of trouble here in that the longer you go on, it is
0:10:55 > 0:10:59significant because the longer we go in this phase, the shorter time we
0:10:59 > 0:11:04have to do the other elements, principally the trade deals also the
0:11:04 > 0:11:08longer time it takes to do other trade deals and move into that other
0:11:08 > 0:11:12arena, the less confidence there is about business and so forth and I
0:11:12 > 0:11:16think there is a Lords report tonight saying this could cost
0:11:16 > 0:11:2075,000 jobs in the city and you have to get on with this because
0:11:20 > 0:11:23confidence is seeping away.It is easy to be gloomy, I don't think it
0:11:23 > 0:11:27would be the end of the world if it went into the New Year and I think
0:11:27 > 0:11:33the DUP are on board now and we will hopefully see some movement.I can't
0:11:33 > 0:11:41quite see it myself!And the last story in the Daily Express, the
0:11:41 > 0:11:46where the 90 mph killer storm! Perhaps their favourite story. The
0:11:46 > 0:11:56weather! Killer storm?Perhaps we ought to wait for it.This is Storm
0:11:56 > 0:12:02Caroline which is on its way towards us.I prefer it now that they name
0:12:02 > 0:12:08them. Scotland and northern England will bear the brunt as always. It is
0:12:08 > 0:12:11not generally until it comes down south that it reaches the front
0:12:11 > 0:12:17pages normally. -10 is chilly enough...Even for you Scots?I
0:12:17 > 0:12:27think so!It is a bizarre front page to be honest.You think so?Yes.
0:12:27 > 0:12:31Look at the times, a terrific picture of Judi Dench, on the
0:12:31 > 0:12:35Telegraph that is an interesting combination of stories, we have
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Brexit, we have not seen the sun, but I am sure two thirds of the
0:12:38 > 0:12:42front page is not taken up by predictions of what might happen
0:12:42 > 0:12:45with a storm that might or might not hit us in a couple of days.People
0:12:45 > 0:12:53do love the weather stories.They do.Thank you very much indeed. That
0:12:53 > 0:12:56is it for tonight, don't forget you can see the front pages on the
0:12:56 > 0:13:02papers online on the BBC new ways about -- at the BBC News website.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05It's all there for you seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers,
0:13:05 > 0:13:06and if you miss the programme any
0:13:06 > 0:13:08evening you can watch it later on BBC iPlayer
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Thank you to Paul Johnson and Lynn Davidson.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Goodbye.
