0:00:00 > 0:00:02investigating an alleged plot for an attack over Christmas.

0:00:02 > 0:00:04A 31-year-old man from Chesterfield, and a 22-year-old

0:00:04 > 0:00:06man from Sheffield, will appear before magistrates

0:00:06 > 0:00:07tomorrow.

0:00:17 > 0:00:20Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be

0:00:20 > 0:00:26bringing us tomorrow.

0:00:26 > 0:00:28With me are broadcaster, David Davies, and journalist,

0:00:28 > 0:00:32Dina Hamdy.

0:00:32 > 0:00:38To the thank you very much for coming in.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40-- nice to have you both here.

0:00:40 > 0:00:42Tomorrow's front pages, starting with...

0:00:42 > 0:00:44The Times, which reports that the best paid family doctors

0:00:44 > 0:00:46can earn up to £700,000 a year.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48The Telegraph reports that the Minister

0:00:48 > 0:00:51for the Constitution has accused Jeremy Corbyn of trying to rig

0:00:51 > 0:00:53the next election by planning to block proposed reforms

0:00:53 > 0:00:54to constituency boundaries.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57The i leads with a suggestion that drunk revellers should be treated

0:00:57 > 0:01:00in what it's described as "drunk tanks", rather

0:01:00 > 0:01:00than our hospitals.

0:01:01 > 0:01:03The Guardian leads with an MP warning social media

0:01:03 > 0:01:06giants they could face sanctions if they continue to stonewall

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Parliament over Russian interference in the Brexit vote.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10The Daily Mail's front page covers a study suggesting

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Britain has a growing problem with addiction

0:01:12 > 0:01:13to prescription drugs.

0:01:13 > 0:01:15The Financial Times says worldwide merger and acquisitions

0:01:15 > 0:01:16surpassed $3 trillion this year.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19The Mirror is launching a campaign to end

0:01:19 > 0:01:22charges in hospital carparks.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24The Sun reports that UK supermarkets will start selling

0:01:24 > 0:01:32bacon that doesn't have harmful added nitrites.

0:01:32 > 0:01:37Let's start with the Guardian this time and Facebook was sanctioned

0:01:37 > 0:01:41over Russia in Quarry, not just Facebook and Twitter as well. They

0:01:41 > 0:01:48have not thought to be complying with politicians who are looking

0:01:48 > 0:01:53into alleged Russian interference. No, they are not. They are allegedly

0:01:53 > 0:02:00stonewalling and ignoring the Parliamentary committee's requests

0:02:00 > 0:02:04for information, when they have submitted a lot of data to a similar

0:02:04 > 0:02:09congressional hearing in America. And they are now threatened with

0:02:09 > 0:02:15unspecified sanctions, possibly where it hurts, their revenue, their

0:02:15 > 0:02:19advertising revenue, and of course it is very bad PR if they keep being

0:02:19 > 0:02:23hauled in for questioning every now and then, in front of the

0:02:23 > 0:02:27Parliamentary committee. But I think the moral of the story for me, for

0:02:27 > 0:02:33my personal opinion, is that their days of monopoly, without liability,

0:02:33 > 0:02:39unnumbered. I think that they will not be able to... Attends to the

0:02:39 > 0:02:46mutual platforms for long. They need to... They will have to clarify

0:02:46 > 0:02:50their algorithms at one point or another, and how they come up with

0:02:50 > 0:02:56the news and if it has been tweaked to, they are acting as editors or

0:02:56 > 0:03:01senses.This is the point, isn't it? They have always said that, we are

0:03:01 > 0:03:06not publish here, we are not subject to that sort of regulation, we at

0:03:06 > 0:03:10just a digital platform.Digital platform, yeah. Well, I think they

0:03:10 > 0:03:14are going to struggle to maintain that position and in the middle of

0:03:14 > 0:03:18this Guardian story as well, there is a line that ministers are

0:03:18 > 0:03:21understood to be concerned by the company's attitude and could be

0:03:21 > 0:03:25sympathetic to any request for action, and that it will be very

0:03:25 > 0:03:30interesting to see whether the government itself takes a line on

0:03:30 > 0:03:38all this. And having been provoked into it, by Damian Collins's Select

0:03:38 > 0:03:47Committee.And if you look at it in Europe, we are rather behind them.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Germany, for example, it is Parliament has passed legislation

0:03:49 > 0:03:58that could see these forms, these giants, fined up to 50 million euros

0:03:58 > 0:04:05if they do not take down hate speech in a timely fashion.So much gets

0:04:05 > 0:04:09posted on these sites, and even with the right will to do it, it would be

0:04:09 > 0:04:13hard to keep track of all that traffic, wouldn't it?I think that

0:04:13 > 0:04:21is right and it is very well to sit as Little Englanders in this

0:04:21 > 0:04:30situation and that is the -- this is the absolute opposite, of course.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35The evidence, and the way they gave their evidence, do I compare the

0:04:35 > 0:04:38Football Association which gave some evidence to the same committee a few

0:04:38 > 0:04:42weeks ago, it was almost an object lesson in how not to give evidence

0:04:42 > 0:04:51to a Select Committee.A look at the Times, snow and ice forecast to

0:04:51 > 0:04:59bring more traffic chaos. Northern England as well suffers with this

0:04:59 > 0:05:07weather a lot more than we do down here.Well, you know, I come from a

0:05:07 > 0:05:10tradition and heritage outside London, where we sort of don't

0:05:10 > 0:05:18expect much attention unless London and the south-east sees no. And what

0:05:18 > 0:05:24was that sentence about, that if London should stay in but the

0:05:24 > 0:05:32northerners should get a big coat. -- snow. But I mean, this is serious

0:05:32 > 0:05:40stuff, and some of us feel, we declare our interest that we sat in

0:05:40 > 0:05:44the European airport yesterday for several hours and we have had an

0:05:44 > 0:05:48apology today, it took 24 hours but we got it, to get an apology today

0:05:48 > 0:05:55from an airline whose first part of its name is Easy, and I will leave

0:05:55 > 0:06:03you to fill in the other bits. What they're doing at the moment is not

0:06:03 > 0:06:09good enough and in 2018, it is not to say I well, we can't afford to

0:06:09 > 0:06:15help...It is not a British problem then, is it?Well no, it was

0:06:15 > 0:06:19actually a British problem because at the end of the day, the staff for

0:06:19 > 0:06:25this airline, British, were not able to get out of England's two get to,

0:06:25 > 0:06:31to come to Europe to bring English people here.Thank goodness you

0:06:31 > 0:06:37hear.Well, I am very relieved to be here.Thank you for bringing him to

0:06:37 > 0:06:44us.Thank you.It says here that the revellers were advised to bring

0:06:44 > 0:06:49blankets, torches and shovels, it does not sound very like a party, it

0:06:49 > 0:06:53sounds like they are going to visit a refugee camp.Well, no, you might

0:06:53 > 0:06:58get stuck in the snow. The Daily Mirror, other MPs have noticed this

0:06:58 > 0:07:03before, axe the hospital parking tax on the six. It can be very expensive

0:07:03 > 0:07:11if you are at the hospital as a visitor or a patient. This campaign

0:07:11 > 0:07:15has its origins, I think in Jeremy Corbyn's proposal in May, where he

0:07:15 > 0:07:24has called it a tax on serious illness, and it is, people have to

0:07:24 > 0:07:27pay a small fortunes to park their cars, including not only the family

0:07:27 > 0:07:32of the six what nurses and NHS practitioners, up to £100 per month.

0:07:32 > 0:07:40And that is just exorbitant.It did not used to be this way, did it?

0:07:40 > 0:07:46Well, I think that you are going back a long way to when it was...I

0:07:46 > 0:07:51have long memories.Well, you may have long memory, perhaps even even

0:07:51 > 0:07:56longer one than me. I don't know is true, I am certain it isn't. What is

0:07:56 > 0:08:01happening is that charges have got way, way out of kilter and they have

0:08:01 > 0:08:06got to such a level in places like the West Midlands that people have

0:08:06 > 0:08:13said enough is enough. Now, it will be very interesting to see how the

0:08:13 > 0:08:19government reacts, if it reacts at all, because to actually stop

0:08:19 > 0:08:25hospital trusts from putting up these charges will need, one

0:08:25 > 0:08:34suspects, legislation.Yeah, and there will be a gap of £175 million

0:08:34 > 0:08:41that will need raising to do it. The Guardian, the back page this time.

0:08:41 > 0:08:45When I am racially abused, I just want to be alone and left to think

0:08:45 > 0:08:55about it. This is Rhian Brewster, who is one of the England under 17

0:08:55 > 0:08:59winners and he feels frustrated that there is not enough action against

0:08:59 > 0:09:04racism by authorities stop loop this is an extraordinary interview, a

0:09:04 > 0:09:07huge credit to him and the Liverpool Football Club. I cannot think of

0:09:07 > 0:09:14anything comparable in recent times. -- this is. With a 17-year-old

0:09:14 > 0:09:18player, who has never actually paid for the senior team in Liverpool yet

0:09:18 > 0:09:22but he has played for England very successfully, the England under 17

0:09:22 > 0:09:30team, and he is talking about seven occasions when he says he has been

0:09:30 > 0:09:36racially abused or witnessed the same happening 20 Mate. Now, those

0:09:36 > 0:09:41of us who go back to helping the setting up of the kick-in Out

0:09:41 > 0:09:45campaign using football as a power to fight racism, there are people

0:09:45 > 0:09:52who think I well, it is all history. It isn't history and frankly, if you

0:09:52 > 0:09:57think it is history, I recommend you go to the local park on a Saturday

0:09:57 > 0:10:00or Sunday afternoon in several parts of the country, and you will still

0:10:00 > 0:10:09see racism. But having said that, I absolutely sympathise with this and

0:10:09 > 0:10:14somebody, having the guts and the courage, not least a 17-year-old

0:10:14 > 0:10:22guy, to do this and to say Uefa, Fifa, you are not doing enough. And

0:10:22 > 0:10:28what isn't of is players walking off the pitch and grounds being shut,

0:10:28 > 0:10:32that is the only thing people understand.Because it is an

0:10:32 > 0:10:36international problem, isn't it? This young man describes one of his

0:10:36 > 0:10:39teammates being racially abused by an opposition player, when they were

0:10:39 > 0:10:46playing in Spain.And in Russia and elsewhere. I mean, I don't know...

0:10:46 > 0:10:50Do you feel that as you say, you have got a long memory, do you feel

0:10:50 > 0:10:54that this is a recent phenomenon? That we could tie to the rise of far

0:10:54 > 0:11:01right populism, for example? That gives people the room to rent their

0:11:01 > 0:11:07ugly beliefs?But let me tell you, it has been there. It is not,

0:11:07 > 0:11:10Margaret Thatcher might have said this, it is not, might have been

0:11:10 > 0:11:17told this, it is not football's problem but it is in football. And

0:11:17 > 0:11:21the reality, you can argue that football has done as much as anybody

0:11:21 > 0:11:25to try and count it and it has been successful in certain places, but

0:11:25 > 0:11:31England is not the world. England is not Europe and there is, in eastern

0:11:31 > 0:11:38Europe, dare I say it, and in parts of the... In Italy, I was on, part

0:11:38 > 0:11:42of a committee where the Italians used as they do not highlight it

0:11:42 > 0:11:45because you will make it worse, that was the traditional attitude.Let's

0:11:45 > 0:11:52go to the Daily Telegraph. Ask Doctor Google before your GP. I am

0:11:52 > 0:11:56sure that I have read something that was exactly the opposite.I have

0:11:56 > 0:12:00read it as well, and you are going to be told up by your GP for coming

0:12:00 > 0:12:05in and seeming to know what is wrong with you, and now you are told to do

0:12:05 > 0:12:09exactly the opposite and find out what is wrong with you and not only

0:12:09 > 0:12:12that, hopefully get treated for you call on the GP at all.There are

0:12:12 > 0:12:17several pieces of advice, one is asking pharmacist. You second that.

0:12:17 > 0:12:23I am a great fan of that. You have to have confidence in your

0:12:23 > 0:12:30pharmacist, that is true, and I'm not quite sure who has agreed that

0:12:30 > 0:12:33pharmacist should take on greater and greater responsibilities.They

0:12:33 > 0:12:39are highly trained.Our highly trained and they are overwhelmingly

0:12:39 > 0:12:43kind, in my experience, kind people who offered this advice if you ask

0:12:43 > 0:12:50for it, but it is very difficult if you go to, you know, a pharmacy on

0:12:50 > 0:12:55Euston station and you go into a busy pharmacy, customers everywhere

0:12:55 > 0:12:59and all the rest of it, and somebody has got some ailments that they

0:12:59 > 0:13:03don't want to go and see their GP about, is asking a lot of that

0:13:03 > 0:13:10pharmacist to give particular time to person after person after person.

0:13:13 > 0:13:17I am surely they would send you to the doctor if they could not help.

0:13:17 > 0:13:24We have a panda.She underlined it three times. I am not taking a panda

0:13:24 > 0:13:29with me. Pandas and politicians are not happy omens. It was later

0:13:29 > 0:13:35revealed that she meant not love omens.This was suggested to

0:13:35 > 0:13:41Margaret Thatcher and we have just learned about it because of the

0:13:41 > 0:13:45release of the National archives, as we get at this time of year when

0:13:45 > 0:13:49they are no longer secret and can be publicised. She thought this was not

0:13:49 > 0:13:54a good idea because it would remind people of a previous conservative.I

0:13:54 > 0:14:01fear, DRS say it, that has more to do with it. -- their ISA it. The

0:14:01 > 0:14:05late Edward Heath brought a paperback from China. They were a

0:14:05 > 0:14:14big thing at that time. Now I am happy to say I think they are

0:14:14 > 0:14:19flourishing in key parts of the world. That era has something to do

0:14:19 > 0:14:28with it. It is extraordinary that it was such an issue that a former

0:14:28 > 0:14:34Prime Minister should be underlining it in her private memos.And that it

0:14:34 > 0:14:39was even secret, all this time.To be honest, I don't blame her. You

0:14:39 > 0:14:45don't know what a panda might do. Sitting next to her eating me

0:14:45 > 0:14:53peanuts. Finally, the Sun. That saves our Bacon. Fry up and rejoice.

0:14:53 > 0:15:00Rashes are free of cancer chemicals. All thanks to boffins -- rashers.

0:15:00 > 0:15:07What have they done?For those of us who love our Bacon and poached eggs,

0:15:07 > 0:15:13and have done for too many years, it has probably come too late for me.

0:15:13 > 0:15:18They can without nitrates from the curing process will be available in

0:15:18 > 0:15:28supermarkets in the new year.Note letter in numbers and nitrates -- E

0:15:28 > 0:15:35numbers.The food industry has a lot to answer for.They have listened

0:15:35 > 0:15:40and thanks to the boffins it has all been dealt with. Get those hangover

0:15:40 > 0:15:42Savages ready.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44That's it for The Papers tonight.

0:15:44 > 0:15:46Thank you David Davies and Dina Hamdy.

0:15:46 > 0:15:52Coming up next, it's Meet the Author.
