06/01/2018 The Papers

Hello.

This is BBC News

with Martine Croxall.

We'll be taking a look at tomorrow

morning's papers in a moment -

first the headlines.

Donald Trump has renewed his attack

on the author of a new book,

who suggested that the president's

closest advisors question

his fitness for office.

Mr Trump called the journalist,

Michael Wolff, "a fraud".

I consider it a work of fiction

and I think it's a disgrace that

somebody's able to have something,

do something like that.

The libel laws are very

weak in this country.

If they were strong it

would be very helpful.

You wouldn't have things like that

happen, where you can say

whatever comes to your head.

An Ambulance Service has apologised

to the family of an elderly woman

who died after almost a four hour

wait for paramedics.

A spokesperson for the Department

of Health said it was a 'tragic

case' and 'completely unacceptable'.

Reports from Syria say 17 civilians

have been killed in air raids

on the rebel-held enclave

of Eastern Ghouta, near Damascus.

Today's attacks come as aid

workers say hospitals have

been directly targeted.

House of Fraser has confirmed

that it has asked landlords

to reduce rents on some

of its shops.

The department store chain is due

to reveal its Christmas

trading figures next week.

and highlights of click's recent

live show, have to stay safe online.

Hello and welcome to our look ahead

to what the papers will be bringing

us tomorrow. With this eve pollard,

commentator. And also Dharshini.

The Sunday Times claims that the

Prime Minister will hold a cabinet

reshuffle on Monday with up to --

macro with several minutes of being

moved or sacks. The Sunday Telegraph

says that Justin Greaney is fighting

for the job. Old media posts were

held to contain disgusting tweets.

The Sunday Express right that

Theresa May has ordered a review

into parole board after the former

taxi driver John Warboys, found

guilty of sexual assault against

several women has been released.

Let's look into the stories about

the reshuffle which will happen next

week although Downing Street has

been circumspect about whether they

have got any of the names right.

Some senior ministers looking safe,

according to this report?

Yes,

Boris's name does not come up. But

others do not. Shuffling a whole

six-pack. Mrs me is either busy

being furious about stories or

reshuffling. -- Mrs Theresa May.

Education, an area that has seen

problems over the last couple of

years because of funding changes. On

the other hand, you have got Jeremy

Hunt in charge of another crisis in

Department. It looks like he could

be moving upwards to replace Damian

Green. So lots going on there. We

could see a whole raft of new faces.

The idea is to make way for the new

generation. But Justin Greening has

been popular with the unions, they

say the she has understood them all.

But Britain is not near the top of

any list in the education thing.

Reading, maths, they are not great

at school. I'm afraid this is what

happens. You go into a job and have

to turn it around really fast or you

are out. There is a feeling that you

are left with a lot of people here

who don't have kids or whatever

people are saying, I go to school

every day and everyone to know, want

to shout about what is going wrong

with my school. The younger Cabinet

to shout about what is going wrong

with my school. The younger Cabinet,

a more diverse cabinet would be more

interesting.

Justin Greening was

educated in a comprehensive. The

first Education Secretary who had

not been to a public school. And the

idea was that she would understand

more about social mobility and what

that looks like and people who had

done the job before.

And to be fair

to her, she has been dealt a hard

hand because there have been changes

in funding particularly in

inner-city schools. That is

problematic. How can you deliver

better results when you are

wondering if you can keep the number

of teachers you have now? At the

same time, something in the Sunday

Times, saying that Theresa May might

adopt her patronising tone, whatever

that means?

Hard to know. Which

politician is not patronising at?

You have a whole load of new

politicians who are fairly untouched

by some of the drama is that I've

gone before, give them a go and

revitalise the whole thing.

It needs

a new look.

You need experience as

well? She's leaving quite a lot in

place. The Sunday Telegraph

highlights Justin Greening, saying

she is fighting for her job. But she

hasn't got a huge amount of room for

manoeuvre?

Very little. And a

minority government. And she has

very little time because Mr Michel

Barnier is have -- has had Christmas

with his family and is coming back

to Brexit. She has to do all this as

well as Brexit.

Downing Street has

said that all of the speculation in

the Sunday papers is just

speculation. They are saying it is

all guesswork but we are expecting a

reshuffle on Monday and Tuesday.

There has to be, because there is a

vacancy created by Damian Green

moving on. You have to get that in

place.

There have been a lot of

complaints from civil servants and

other parts of the non-Brexit

policies that Brexit has taken over.

Maybe Brexit has to? It is the most

scary thing we are doing. And you

will work the -- you are working

with Europe with Europe who have

never done before.

The Daily Mail,

PM's discussed at sordid tweets.

Toby Young has got a position on the

new office for students watchdog. It

shows how social media can haunt you

for years.

It is the advice given to

university students, be careful

about what you write, it could come

and haunt you. It appears that the

new appointee had not paid attention

to that. He has deleted many

thousand tweets. Some of which we

were told one misogynistic or

offensive.

Have you read some of

them?

Yes.

Of course, when social

media was started, nobody would

think they would come back and hit

you. I have to say that I know two

Byung Poong. It was interesting when

we talked about education and he has

done interesting things with three

schools. But you cannot have

somebody who has written stuff about

women, which he has, going into

these semi-governmental positions.

The truth is, the only worrying

thing is that you grow a group of

people who are dull, boring. The

whole thing about social media is

that I think we will look back at it

and say gosh, we used it stupidly at

the beginning.

Some of these tweets

go back to 2009. People managed to

take a screenshot of them.

They will

never go.

You can't get rid of them.

It draws comparison with other

cases. The person from Sheffield who

did a treat us found to be not the

best person to be on the qualities

committee. And isn't it hypocrisy to

keep Toby Young?

If it's not part of

the whole Harvey Weinstein thing

about the attitude to women?

There

is no suggestion that there is

anything of that nature. Of course

not. If easy to explain it away as

something you made a mistake on nine

years ago, but I think Toby will

still in his 40s when he wrote

those!

I don't know if Toby has ever

answered any of these...

? He could

use the papers.

I think it would be

interesting. Something should talk

to him about also some other things.

He is smart and savvy but how stupid

to let all this out on social media.

Also embarrassing for people who

oversaw the process. You should do

due diligence if you are hiring

someone.

But you probably talk about

different things, you don't talk

about...

What's on the road eight

years ago.

The Sunday Express, PM's fury at

rate fast. Review into parole board

-- at rape farce. This had been

poured over for the last few days

because some victims were not

notified that he this was going to

happen.

Many victims were not

notified and never included in the

court case that sent him down. So

there are various things. The

indeterminate sentence, which didn't

used to exist but does now. You

think when somebody gets an

indeterminate sentence, they are

going away for a long time. We now

discover they are not. On the other

thing is, we have seen photographs

of his kit. A premeditation seems to

be part of it. There is booze,

drugs, also of things. And the fact

that many women felt that they were

not even allowed to actually put

their case, I can't believe this

won't come back to haunt and there

will be another case.

The idea is

being put forward that there should

be more transparency about how

parole board makes decisions. The

parole board has said that there is

not transparency out there. For this

to happen is appalling. You think of

the 100 other alleged victims who as

we were talking about earlier, this

is the time now when we could see

them putting their lives back

together.

The other thing is, it's

another thing that is totally

transparent about government. How do

you get on the parole board? The

Wizard made up of? Is there anybody

normal, sensible, practical? Is it

just full of legal people? It is one

of those things that is coated in

mystery. How do you get onto the

parole board.

Victims are asked for

their views of the release but we

never quite know how much they

figure in the final decision.

And

also victims in this case were not

told at all.

The Observer, Trump, I'm a very

stable genius. Bigley. If you have

said, you're probably not! He is

lashing out because of this book. He

does keep stories going by

protesting about them.

I know the

journalists. Why was he allowed to

hang around the White House. Along

if they didn't think he was going to

produce an article at least if not a

book?

Trump says he has never been

interviewed by him, that he wasn't

given access to the West Wing at

all?

Michael Wolff says he has.

And

dinner parties as well.

All of that.

One fantastically interesting thing,

having been to New York, is it is

like Donald Trump is on the

apprentice everyday. There is a new

reality show and he is the star.

He

lost it. He says I went to a very --

from a very successful businessman

to TV star and President on my first

try.

That would qualify as genius.

The fact that he now knows that

people are leaking stuff left right

and centre in the White House and

keynote that he is now saying that

Michael Wolff didn't do the

interviews and yet he has got so

much evidence that he has

gathered...

You have a turnover of

the very senior staff, what to

expect?

Sloppy Steve? This is

something that every Prime Minister

has to look at when they do a

reshuffle. Everybody who gets thrown

out, they talk to the newspapers the

next week. Steve Bannon has

obviously been a influence behind

this book. He thinks he created this

president and is very angry. I think

that as long as we are talking about

him, Donald does not mind.

And when

we have Brexit coming up, this is

the front page, the President of the

United States saying, I am very

stable. I said he is a blip. Brexit

is for ever.

We can never get away

from Trump or Brexit! We have proved

that again tonight. Back again at

11:30pm. Coming up next is Click.
