0:00:00 > 0:00:02shirk a challenge. That is all from us and coming up in
0:00:02 > 0:00:05a moment, the Papers.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
0:00:20 > 0:00:21bringing us tomorrow.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23With me are Lucy Fisher, Senior Political Correspondent
0:00:23 > 0:00:26at The Times and Paul Johnson, Deputy Editor of The Guardian.
0:00:26 > 0:00:34Tomorrow's front pages.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37The Telegraph reports the government will have banks freeze the assets
0:00:37 > 0:00:44of illegal immigrants.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48The paper says that as part of a plan to force them out of the
0:00:48 > 0:00:48country.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50It also carries a picture of Bethany Walker who died
0:00:50 > 0:00:53after becoming ill at home - initially from flu symptoms which
0:00:53 > 0:00:57later developed into pneumonia.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59They on a letter expressing intolerable conditions endangering
0:00:59 > 0:01:01lives.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04The Express is warning readers that a second EU referendum could be
0:01:04 > 0:01:07on the cards after comments made by Nigel Farage this morning.
0:01:07 > 0:01:11The daily Mirror also has this with them saying he wants a second
0:01:11 > 0:01:19referendum. Their own polling shows remain would win by 55-45.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22The Times talking about a daring plot to hide royal gems in a biscuit
0:01:22 > 0:01:25tin in the grounds of windsor castle during the second world war
0:01:25 > 0:01:27to ensure they didn't fall into the hands of Nazis.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32And the Guardian has news that the parliamentary cook has only just
0:01:32 > 0:01:36been given leave to stay in the UK after living here for 50 years. The
0:01:36 > 0:01:41Daily Mail has news that President Trump is planning to cancel his trip
0:01:41 > 0:01:46to the United Kingdom over fears they want to be made welcome. Let's
0:01:46 > 0:01:52get off, we have got this story in the Times, an interesting story
0:01:52 > 0:01:56about the threat of a merger between the Royal Marines and the
0:01:56 > 0:02:02paratroopers and attempts to cut the Armed Forces by up to 14,000 troops.
0:02:02 > 0:02:08This will cause a lot of uproar, the Army is already 14,000 short of its
0:02:08 > 0:02:1382,000 target. There is a £20 billion shortfall in the budget over
0:02:13 > 0:02:21the next decade, by firemen tested how this is coming out. He has been
0:02:21 > 0:02:27tipped as a future leadership contender and he has been banging
0:02:27 > 0:02:33his drum and it'll be interesting to see if he gets his way.And he won't
0:02:33 > 0:02:40want big cuts on his watch?Three things about this story, one, it is
0:02:40 > 0:02:43a good story, process in action and real-life politics. It says troops
0:02:43 > 0:02:48would leave the smallest army since before Napoleon. We don't fight
0:02:48 > 0:02:53battles in Europe using squares and cavalry so I don't think that
0:02:53 > 0:02:58matters, but you could have had the headline, merger threat to Philip
0:02:58 > 0:03:08Hammond because that is really what the story is about. Is Gavin
0:03:08 > 0:03:14Williamson playing a crafty game? The story is of backbenchers getting
0:03:14 > 0:03:17really irritated about this and Philip Hammond has another person
0:03:17 > 0:03:21knocking on his door but more money. Somebody it seems won't be knocking
0:03:21 > 0:03:25on the board of Downing Street is Donald Trump according to the Daily
0:03:25 > 0:03:31Mail. You can phone that visit which would've been hugely controversial,
0:03:31 > 0:03:38and I would have been big protest if they came.I wouldn't be surprised.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42He said he was still planning to come but Donald Trump not keeping
0:03:42 > 0:03:47his word wouldn't necessarily raise my eyebrows. We know what he is
0:03:47 > 0:03:53like, he would be faced with huge protests. He had already scaled down
0:03:53 > 0:03:57the ambitions this year for a huge state visit to a more low-key trip
0:03:57 > 0:04:02to open the embassy. I am not surprised. He could have tagged onto
0:04:02 > 0:04:10his trip to Davos for the World Economic Forum but I think this is
0:04:10 > 0:04:15right on the money.Presumably he will come sooner or later?It has
0:04:15 > 0:04:20been a long running things. Went to the Zamir scuttled over to
0:04:20 > 0:04:24Washington to be the first leader to hold his hand on the trip, a lot of
0:04:24 > 0:04:30Brexit ears are saying, he is the personal embodiment of a new
0:04:30 > 0:04:33relationship, the special relationship recreated, then use
0:04:33 > 0:04:38that it had to be scaled down because he would be uncomfortable,
0:04:38 > 0:04:44and news now that he's not at all. We as a newspaper said he shouldn't
0:04:44 > 0:04:49be banned but the only people sad about this will be a lot of
0:04:49 > 0:04:59policemen missing out on an overtime bonanza is interesting story in the
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Telegraph, a 14-year-old girl winning a pay-out from Facebook
0:05:01 > 0:05:08about revenge pawn.This could have a big implications for social media
0:05:08 > 0:05:14and their responsibility over what is put out on their platforms. It is
0:05:14 > 0:05:20a horrifying story, the girl was 14 years old and pictures of her naked
0:05:20 > 0:05:24repeatedly published on Facebook as revenge by people known to have. The
0:05:24 > 0:05:29really interesting thing is as you say, how this can open the
0:05:29 > 0:05:35floodgates for a raft of similar claims. With Facebook but also
0:05:35 > 0:05:40tested commitment to security and jihad a content, this is the battle
0:05:40 > 0:05:44line on which it is fighting and it has so far been quite unwilling to
0:05:44 > 0:05:49help and cut down on these kinds of fences and outrages, not willing to
0:05:49 > 0:05:57spend the money for people to go through posts to rely on faulty
0:05:57 > 0:06:01algorithms. There seems to be a general mood among individuals and
0:06:01 > 0:06:04governments that social media need to take a bit more responsibility
0:06:04 > 0:06:09for what is on their platform?That is right and Facebook in particular
0:06:09 > 0:06:13we published last year some Facebook files which had the Bible in the
0:06:13 > 0:06:18sense of how moderators should work, and you could see how capricious it
0:06:18 > 0:06:21was for the small number of moderators to make snap decisions in
0:06:21 > 0:06:27real small-time. Facebook have appointed about 10,000 more
0:06:27 > 0:06:35moderators since but the pressures will grow particularly from Europe.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Interesting stories on the Express front page and yours as well which
0:06:38 > 0:06:44we will come to but let's just show the Daily Express because they have
0:06:44 > 0:06:48Nigel Farage on the stick everyone by surprise when he went on TV and
0:06:48 > 0:06:55said actually he wouldn't mind, quite like a second referendum, and
0:06:55 > 0:06:59he is the last person you would expect to see that.It seems to have
0:06:59 > 0:07:03taken Nigel Farage by surprise as well because he commit first of all
0:07:03 > 0:07:07to say we should have second referendum and immediately, unusual
0:07:07 > 0:07:13bedfellows for him, Nick Clegg, Andrew Adonis and Vince Cable said
0:07:13 > 0:07:21he is talking sense.The remoaners as he would say!Then there was a
0:07:21 > 0:07:30subtle shift. This through to Ukip style he was immediately condemned
0:07:30 > 0:07:34by his own party saying this was a ridiculous thing to do but it had an
0:07:34 > 0:07:39immediate impact. The bookies have propped the odds from 10-1 to 5-1 on
0:07:39 > 0:07:46the second referendum and we talked about the Manner for which had 55%
0:07:46 > 0:07:51and the pawn December had 53% in favour of a second referendum, so
0:07:51 > 0:07:54perhaps that is despite the government saying there won't be won
0:07:54 > 0:07:57and despite the Labour position, perhaps that is more talk that comes
0:07:57 > 0:08:02from an unusual source.It is in the Guardian as well, we can show your
0:08:02 > 0:08:11front page, the same story. The way they bid it is hoped to raise, I
0:08:11 > 0:08:18suppose it depends on which side of the argument you're wrong. When he
0:08:18 > 0:08:22said it in the interview he said maybe, just maybe there should be a
0:08:22 > 0:08:29second referendum and sounded like he was just chucking it out.I am a
0:08:29 > 0:08:34little bit more cynical than both of you. I don't think Nigel Farage
0:08:34 > 0:08:37makes those kinds of mistakes in the media, he is quite an accomplished
0:08:37 > 0:08:46performer whatever you think of his politics. The fact he said he was on
0:08:46 > 0:08:54the verge and your travelling hours later is from classic Nigel Farage
0:08:54 > 0:08:58playbook of headline grabbing as he is now on the front pages. Had he
0:08:58 > 0:09:05stuck to the idea of backing it it would have been a huge moment.
0:09:05 > 0:09:11Really, these remoaners had cause to delight and some of the champions of
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Leave like Boris Johnson might have been wrong-footed by it all but at
0:09:13 > 0:09:19the end of the day we are thinking he has said one thing turned around.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24And Downing Street are saying there won't be one anyway.I don't think
0:09:24 > 0:09:27there will be an Theresa May has said it would undermine the
0:09:27 > 0:09:34democratic vote.She has been firm on many things! We have seen a few
0:09:34 > 0:09:41reverses.Watch that space. Speaking of Theresa May, our government has
0:09:41 > 0:09:45serious problems with the National Health Service. We are seeing that
0:09:45 > 0:09:51letter from A&E doctors saying conditions are intolerable and the
0:09:51 > 0:09:57front-page pictures on the Metal and other papers are of an 18-year-old
0:09:57 > 0:10:00general Bethany Walker who has died despite being airlifted to hospital
0:10:00 > 0:10:10in Inverness. She had flu. What do you make of that because this flu
0:10:10 > 0:10:14outbreak at the moment, a lot of serious problems in the NHS this
0:10:14 > 0:10:22winter.Really tragic to see a young person, often the fluid tends to
0:10:22 > 0:10:28affect elderly and more surreal people. Worrying to hear that the
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Australian flu as it has been termed, though it is not from
0:10:31 > 0:10:37Australia and not new, is about to take off. 55,000 operations have
0:10:37 > 0:10:41been cancelled over this winter and the crisis in the NHS so far.
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Theresa May today in a key speech used a question and answer session
0:10:46 > 0:10:52to call on all NHS workers to get the compulsory flu jab. That could
0:10:52 > 0:10:59be quite problematic.Clearly something needs to be done. The
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Arctic blast coming into Britain which is obviously a weather story
0:11:02 > 0:11:08but equally means the NHS, which always faces problems that winter
0:11:08 > 0:11:15time, plus it has a flu outbreak and not enough beds.You said yourself
0:11:15 > 0:11:19the NHS, the government is under pressure on the NHS from both the
0:11:19 > 0:11:22people that represent the main thrusts you are talking about a
0:11:22 > 0:11:28radical rethink and the people talking about taxes, but significant
0:11:28 > 0:11:31amounts of more money needs to go on to the NHS and from the people on
0:11:31 > 0:11:36the front line. Six the A&E units saying they are currently
0:11:36 > 0:11:41underfunded. 12-mac things are happening. I thought it was
0:11:41 > 0:11:45interesting Jeremy Hunt has managed to get social care umbilically tied
0:11:45 > 0:11:53to his NHS health service role. He has also talked about we need to
0:11:53 > 0:11:58make significant progress about a ten year plan. This is potentially
0:11:58 > 0:12:01very positive. We need to thank our way through this. Although the
0:12:01 > 0:12:06government said no to a Royal commission then assigns he is trying
0:12:06 > 0:12:15to do this.Last story, a cracking story on the front page of the
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Times, about the crown jewels been heading in a biscuit tin from the
0:12:18 > 0:12:28Nazis. We know how to hide our assets in this country!It is not
0:12:28 > 0:12:35just any biscuit tin but it is a Bath biscuit tin, and I come from
0:12:35 > 0:12:42Bar. It follows a lot of conspiracies that people think they
0:12:42 > 0:12:45had been heading millivolts in Canada and others any secret panel
0:12:45 > 0:12:53in Devon.But the Nazis would never let any biscuit tin!Even if the
0:12:53 > 0:12:57phone the biscuit tenet would be so quintessentially British that they
0:12:57 > 0:13:02wouldn't fancy it.How has all this, it now?During the filming of the
0:13:02 > 0:13:10BBC documentary? Yes.It is a great story anyway. Thank you both coming
0:13:10 > 0:13:11and,.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14Don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online
0:13:14 > 0:13:16on the BBC News website.
0:13:16 > 0:13:19It's all there for you - seven days a week -and if you miss
0:13:19 > 0:13:23the programme any evening you can watch it later on BBC iPlayer.
0:13:23 > 0:13:30Thank you, Lucy Fisher and Paul Johnson.
0:13:30 > 0:13:37Goodbye.
