0:00:00 > 0:00:02Coming up in a moment, The Papers.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be
0:00:20 > 0:00:27bringing us tomorrow.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29With me are Joe Watts, political editor of the Independent
0:00:29 > 0:00:31and Lucy Fisher, Senior political correspondent at The Times.
0:00:31 > 0:00:42Many of tomorrow's front pages are already in.
0:00:46 > 0:00:48The FT says the financial problems facing Stagecoach -
0:00:48 > 0:00:51the company that runs the East Coast rail line - means the government may
0:00:51 > 0:00:52have to renationalise the line.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54The Guardian has that story too, along with news
0:00:54 > 0:00:57that the High Court has blocked the extradition of Lauri Love,
0:00:57 > 0:00:59accused of hacking several US government bodies including Nasa
0:00:59 > 0:01:02and the FBI.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04The Metro says both the Conservatives and Labour have
0:01:04 > 0:01:07hit back at President Trump he claimed the NHS is
0:01:07 > 0:01:09broke and not working.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12The Mirror's take on that same story is summed up in its headline:
0:01:12 > 0:01:14"You're Sick Mr President"
0:01:14 > 0:01:17A century after women won the right to vote,
0:01:17 > 0:01:19campaigners are calling for jailed suffragettes to be pardoned,
0:01:19 > 0:01:27according to the Daily Telegraph.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29The I reports that arch-Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg has
0:01:29 > 0:01:33launched an inflammatory attack both on the Chancellor and Theresa May.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35And finally, The Express says Britain is on a big freeze alert,
0:01:35 > 0:01:45warning that Tuesday night will be the coldest for six years.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47So Brexit - probably unsurprisingly - makes several
0:01:47 > 0:01:50of the front pages tomorrow, as does the East Coast rail
0:01:50 > 0:01:51line franchise collapse.
0:01:51 > 0:01:58That is where we are starting. On the front of the Financial Times,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01the Transport Secretary, Christopher Grayling, lines up state takeover as
0:02:01 > 0:02:05the East Coast franchise nears collapse, is that the only option on
0:02:05 > 0:02:11the table?No, but this is the most likely given the heavy losses that
0:02:11 > 0:02:25this is -- that this is -- that Stagecoach have incurred. I think
0:02:25 > 0:02:31this will annoy many people and this will play into the Labour narrative
0:02:31 > 0:02:34that with private companies, profits can be privatised but losses tend to
0:02:34 > 0:02:40be gnashed Aliza and it will be interesting how this plays out --
0:02:40 > 0:02:50tend to be nationalised.Especially after Carillion.Yes, you can see
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Jeremy Corbyn leaping on this this week, he has been pushing the
0:02:53 > 0:02:58agenda, he will be talking about far from virgin are being punished for
0:02:58 > 0:03:01this franchise not working out, it looks as though they will have their
0:03:01 > 0:03:08franchise extended or not one of the other lines around the UK --
0:03:08 > 0:03:12extended on one of their other lines. There is a feeling that
0:03:12 > 0:03:16despite things that keep going wrong, these companies come back for
0:03:16 > 0:03:21more and tender win contracts and take more money from the public
0:03:21 > 0:03:31purse -- tend to win contracts. It links into the issue of Carillion
0:03:31 > 0:03:34outsourcing, and there's a big theme growing up around this comment
0:03:34 > 0:03:38Jeremy Corbyn is in the place to take advantage. -- around this, and
0:03:38 > 0:03:45Jeremy Corbyn.Europe and Asia catch Wall Street Journal, this is about
0:03:45 > 0:03:53equity markets falling sharply, why is that, Lucy?The Dow Jones has
0:03:53 > 0:03:56taken his biggest hits since 2008 and this comes off the back of
0:03:56 > 0:04:01strong wage growth data which has raised the prospect of Excel rated
0:04:01 > 0:04:04interest rate rises which will have an impact on borrowing --
0:04:04 > 0:04:10accelerated. And so the question is whether this will force the US
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank to cut their crisis in
0:04:13 > 0:04:23Iraq stimulus. -- crisis era stimulus.It feels like a pivotal
0:04:23 > 0:04:26moment, the cheap money is going and that is what is freaking the market
0:04:26 > 0:04:32is out.Another one, I don't think we have seen the end of this, but
0:04:32 > 0:04:36now to Brexit. We did not start with it, so maybe that was a novelty,
0:04:36 > 0:04:44time to make a choice on trade, Barnier tells Britain. This is
0:04:44 > 0:04:48Michel Barnier who had a meeting with both David Davis and a brief
0:04:48 > 0:04:54meeting with Theresa May. Time to make a choice, surely no surprise
0:04:54 > 0:05:01but this is about the transition periodand what we're going to have
0:05:01 > 0:05:04afterwards, UK is trying to ditch the old format of talks which took
0:05:04 > 0:05:09place last year where David Davis would go over to Brussels and then
0:05:09 > 0:05:14they would have a week of talks and then a press conference in which
0:05:14 > 0:05:18Michel Barnier would say disparaging things about the British approach to
0:05:18 > 0:05:22Brexit, so they are trying to change that, and instead they had Michel
0:05:22 > 0:05:26Barnier over to Downing Street and then a tiny press conference, but
0:05:26 > 0:05:33Barnier still managed to say something disparaging. Basically, he
0:05:33 > 0:05:36is trying to tell the British government that it is time to make a
0:05:36 > 0:05:39decision about whether they want to be inside or outside the single
0:05:39 > 0:05:44market and the customs union and Theresa May can't tell him to Mac
0:05:44 > 0:05:47the EU what that decision is yet because frankly her Cabinet is not
0:05:47 > 0:05:57agreed on it -- can't tell him or the EU what the decision is yet.We
0:05:57 > 0:06:03are getting the pressure from Brussels to make up our mind on what
0:06:03 > 0:06:06we are offering, there is also pressure from within the Cabinet and
0:06:06 > 0:06:11on her backbenchers, and also the need for more clarity, but she
0:06:11 > 0:06:15can't. The only thing keeping her Cabinet together is the vagueness
0:06:15 > 0:06:19that is allowing people on both sides to still think they have got
0:06:19 > 0:06:22something in the game and there is everything to play for but I think
0:06:22 > 0:06:31this'll be a very difficult and period ahead.And now Jacob Rees
0:06:31 > 0:06:38Mogg is emerging as rebel in cheek, but we knew that already. Could he'd
0:06:38 > 0:06:48be a Prime Minister in waiting? -- could he be.He is emerging as a
0:06:48 > 0:06:52serious Prime Minister candidate, people are starting to say that he
0:06:52 > 0:06:56is one of the few people on the Tory side around Brexit who is saying
0:06:56 > 0:07:03what they think and it harks back to the leadership contest regarding
0:07:03 > 0:07:15Labour and Jeremy Corbyn, where it did matter what he said, because he
0:07:15 > 0:07:18said what he thought, and Jacob agrees Mogg has got the same thing
0:07:18 > 0:07:23regarding the Conservatives, so maybe people should not think of him
0:07:23 > 0:07:28as a jokey character. People are starting to listen to him in terms
0:07:28 > 0:07:31of him saying just what he thinks and that is hitting home with the
0:07:31 > 0:07:37Tory grassroots membership. He came on top of a poll recently shown he
0:07:37 > 0:07:41was more popular than Boris Johnson amongst Tory members and so that was
0:07:41 > 0:07:48a movement that is building.He has launched an attack on Theresa May
0:07:48 > 0:07:53and Philip Hammond?He's usually very polite so it is more shocking
0:07:53 > 0:07:57when he launches an attack, he says it doesn't look as though the Prime
0:07:57 > 0:08:03Minister is having much fun, but the Prime Minister's spokesperson has
0:08:03 > 0:08:08said that she enjoys her job enormously, actually. He has also
0:08:08 > 0:08:10launched a campaign against Philip Hammond, the Chancellor, who has
0:08:10 > 0:08:16been calling for a soft Brexit. Either like to inject more
0:08:16 > 0:08:23scepticism about Jake agrees Mogg's leadership just as -- I would like
0:08:23 > 0:08:34to inject more scepticism about Jake agrees Mogg's -- Jacob Rees Mogg's
0:08:34 > 0:08:38leadership prospects, he has never held a Cabinet position, and some of
0:08:38 > 0:08:44his conservative views would not be that palatable to the wider public,
0:08:44 > 0:08:54I would imagine, like his views on abortion.Yes, that is true. And on
0:08:54 > 0:08:57the Tory side the MPs have got to vote you into the final two to face
0:08:57 > 0:09:00a vote of the membership and he would first have to gain enough
0:09:00 > 0:09:04support amongst the Conservative Parliamentary party and it is by no
0:09:04 > 0:09:10means clear he could do that.Would he like to be leader?Yes.
0:09:10 > 0:09:17Definitely.And now to the Telegraph, this is their spin on
0:09:17 > 0:09:27Brexit, the EU could force steady seven new laws on the UK. -- 37 foot
0:09:27 > 0:09:42-- 37 new laws. Including having four Vince for recycling.This is a
0:09:42 > 0:09:48interesting story. There has been talk that financial transaction
0:09:48 > 0:09:51taxes and things which could damage the City of London and our economy
0:09:51 > 0:09:55but the thing they focus on here is the thing that affects everyone on
0:09:55 > 0:10:01the streets that is how it goes to the heart of what Brexit is about,
0:10:01 > 0:10:06it is about the small infringements are not the big issues. -- and not
0:10:06 > 0:10:13the big issues for the EI permit is whether we would have to accept --
0:10:13 > 0:10:21the argument is whether we would have to accept these laws in the
0:10:21 > 0:10:27transition period. They are determined to make us take these new
0:10:27 > 0:10:37laws in the spirit, it is reported. -- in the report.This goes to the
0:10:37 > 0:10:43heart of what the Grenfell campaign was
0:10:48 > 0:10:55-- this goes to the heart of what the campaign was all about in terms
0:10:55 > 0:11:03of Leave, so there will be an outcry if this is pushed.We have a good
0:11:03 > 0:11:08picture here, regarding the suffragettes, and the story is that
0:11:08 > 0:11:16they should be pardoned, were many women jailed when they were fighting
0:11:16 > 0:11:22for the vote?Tomorrow is the 100th anniversary of some women, not all
0:11:22 > 0:11:27women, getting the vote, and in that suffragette campaign around 1000
0:11:27 > 0:11:31women were arrested and many were imprisoned. This is an interesting
0:11:31 > 0:11:37campaign and I have written a book about Emily Davidson, the only
0:11:37 > 0:11:41suffragette to die, and many of them wanted to get arrested because it
0:11:41 > 0:11:46would help the publicity of their cause. The first act of militancy
0:11:46 > 0:11:53was in 1905 when one of the Pankhursts spat at a policeman to
0:11:53 > 0:11:57hopefully get imprisoned, and the idea of whitewashing that and asking
0:11:57 > 0:12:02for the record to be scrubbed is may be misguided. It was a key part of
0:12:02 > 0:12:07what they were trying to achieve to get publicity.That is interesting.
0:12:07 > 0:12:14Have you written a book about this as well?I'm afraid not.LAUGHTER
0:12:14 > 0:12:24Last year we had the so-called Turing law in which gay men who had
0:12:24 > 0:12:30been prosecuted would be pardoned, and so Eusebius as the government
0:12:30 > 0:12:34doing this -- and so you can see this as the government doing this to
0:12:34 > 0:12:38mark a big event like a centenary, but whether this is the right thing
0:12:38 > 0:12:40to do, and Lucy makes a good case that those convictions were badges
0:12:40 > 0:12:46of honour and it allowed them to campaign and get the vote.And now
0:12:46 > 0:12:53The Guardian. We have a picture of a very elated Lauri Love, the British
0:12:53 > 0:12:56student accused of hacking who has won his appeal against his
0:12:56 > 0:13:04extradition. I suppose the big question, what happens to him now?
0:13:04 > 0:13:09There is the possibility that the CPS might appeal this decision, but
0:13:09 > 0:13:13they have 14 days to decide whether they do that or not. Even if they
0:13:13 > 0:13:19don't, he will likely or possibly be prosecuted in the UK for his crimes,
0:13:19 > 0:13:25as well. This sets a precedent for this to happen in the future, and
0:13:25 > 0:13:29you might see the US tried to extradite people who do these kind
0:13:29 > 0:13:35of crimes in the future, but there will always be this case now, the
0:13:35 > 0:13:39case law, where lawyers can draw upon this and say, this person
0:13:39 > 0:13:45should be tried for their crimes in the UK and not the US.It raises
0:13:45 > 0:13:49interesting questions about the US prison service and the fact he was
0:13:49 > 0:13:55going to be potentially put in solitary confinement with a 99 year
0:13:55 > 0:13:59sentence and I'm not clear if they are the right safeguarding aspects
0:13:59 > 0:14:03in the US prison service and so I'm not surprised there are civil
0:14:03 > 0:14:09liberty groups welcoming this decision.Thanks for joining us.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11That's it for The Papers tonight.
0:14:11 > 0:14:16Don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online
0:14:16 > 0:14:21on the BBC News website.
0:14:21 > 0:14:27It's all there for you - seven days a week at
0:14:27 > 0:14:30bbc.co.uk/papers - and if you miss the programme any
0:14:30 > 0:14:32evening you can watch it later on BBC iPlayer
0:14:32 > 0:14:33Thank you Joe Watts and Lucy Fisher.
0:14:33 > 0:14:39Goodbye.
