0:00:16 > 0:00:19Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be

0:00:19 > 0:00:23bringing us tomorrow.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26With me are the political commentator and former Tory

0:00:26 > 0:00:30adviser Jo-Anne Nadler, and the journalist James Rampton.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Thank you for being with us.

0:00:32 > 0:00:33Thank you for being with us.

0:00:33 > 0:00:35Several front pages are already in.

0:00:35 > 0:00:37And there's little consensus on the lead.

0:00:37 > 0:00:40The Times has a picture on its front page of

0:00:40 > 0:00:44South Africa's President Jacob Zuma, announcing his resignation.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46The Express headlines the news that medical research has found that

0:00:46 > 0:00:52processed food poses a cancer danger.

0:00:52 > 0:00:55The lead in the Daily Telegraph is the demand from the DUP

0:00:55 > 0:00:57for the resumption of direct rule from Westminster,

0:00:57 > 0:01:01after power-sharing talks in Northern Ireland broke down.

0:01:01 > 0:01:04And The Metro leads on the homeless man who died just yards

0:01:04 > 0:01:08from Parliament, after a night of sub-zero temperatures.

0:01:08 > 0:01:14So, Jacob Zuma, and warnings about links between processed food

0:01:14 > 0:01:24and cancer on a couple of papers there, let's take a closer look.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29The Guardian, a picture of Jacob Zuma. Steps down ahead of favourite

0:01:29 > 0:01:36of no confidence he jumped before he was pushed.Absolutely. Having

0:01:36 > 0:01:40worked in a newspaper office for many years I'm always impressed when

0:01:40 > 0:01:45they kick into action and turn out a front-page very quickly because this

0:01:45 > 0:01:49speech did not happen so long ago. It was 30 minutes. It was quite

0:01:49 > 0:01:52rambling. To get it on the front page with a picture of him looking

0:01:52 > 0:01:57downcast is a very good bit of journalism.Sometimes you can do it

0:01:57 > 0:02:01with a big picture, you don't need too many words.Jason Burke, an

0:02:01 > 0:02:05excellent correspondent, summed it up well. There is more online that

0:02:05 > 0:02:11we've read. It's interesting is very defiant, he gave a really angry

0:02:11 > 0:02:14interview again quite rambling, over allow this afternoon saying he was

0:02:14 > 0:02:20the victim in all of this. This evening he said, I fear no motion of

0:02:20 > 0:02:23no-confidence or impeachment. He's not going to go out without a fight.

0:02:23 > 0:02:28My senses he spent last week wrangling about getting immunity

0:02:28 > 0:02:32from prosecution because over 700 charges of corruption await him at

0:02:32 > 0:02:37the moment is not president. He's been wrangling saying, can I cut

0:02:37 > 0:02:42some sort of deal? Like happened in Zimbabwe when it was forced to step

0:02:42 > 0:02:47down. At the moment the Constitution doesn't allow for that and he may be

0:02:47 > 0:02:50worried about those charges hanging over him.Definitely echoes of

0:02:50 > 0:02:56Robert Mugabe.I think so, I was last on the programme the day he

0:02:56 > 0:03:03eventually stood down. It's two lots of pressure on Jacob Zuma. One is

0:03:03 > 0:03:07the criminal charges potentially, and the very widespread

0:03:07 > 0:03:13understanding of a lot of corruption here. Police are going to the family

0:03:13 > 0:03:19of the Guptills, I think, today, to close some of that down. And

0:03:19 > 0:03:22investigate that in a way that hasn't been out in the open yet. On

0:03:22 > 0:03:25the other side is the political pressure about the real problems

0:03:25 > 0:03:30with the economy and complete mismanagement of the economy. It'll

0:03:30 > 0:03:35be interesting to see how his likely successor can actually improve the

0:03:35 > 0:03:43situation.It's a country in complete chaos.A long way from the

0:03:43 > 0:03:47rule of Mandela.That glorious optimism. We remember the sense of

0:03:47 > 0:03:50the rainbow nation, when he was released, proving a beacon of hope

0:03:50 > 0:03:56to the world. Zoom in his nine years has managed decline and seemed to

0:03:56 > 0:04:05favour his cronies. The Gupta family... His son is involved. There

0:04:05 > 0:04:09are claims that the Zuma will testify against the Gupta family as

0:04:09 > 0:04:13part of the deal, those rumours swirling around. This antibody

0:04:13 > 0:04:17massive palace for himself, the sense of nine years of wasted

0:04:17 > 0:04:21opportunity, Cape Town about to run out of water. It's a country in

0:04:21 > 0:04:25crisis.The Daily Telegraph front-page. Northern Ireland,

0:04:25 > 0:04:32another political crisis. Their headline is the DUP calling for

0:04:32 > 0:04:36direct rule, leaving Theresa May facing crisis in Northern Ireland.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40Yes. Reminiscent of the story we were discussing. A sense of, what a

0:04:40 > 0:04:45long time ago it seems that there was successful, unexpectedly

0:04:45 > 0:04:52successful power-sharing between... In the days of McGuinness and a

0:04:52 > 0:04:56reverend Ian Paisley.The Chuckle Brothers they were called.Nobody

0:04:56 > 0:05:01laughing now, that's the case. In a slightly wicked way I couldn't help

0:05:01 > 0:05:07finding peculiarly amusing the idea that Theresa May's DUP partners have

0:05:07 > 0:05:13been quite so catty, I think about her involvement with trying to get

0:05:13 > 0:05:20this show back on the road, saying quite publicly her trip there

0:05:20 > 0:05:26yesterday was less than helpful. They said it was a distraction.Less

0:05:26 > 0:05:30than helpful. You feel you don't need friends like that, what enemies

0:05:30 > 0:05:34do you need?It centres on the Irish language, use of the Irish language

0:05:34 > 0:05:40on signs and so on.I agree with Joanne, it indicates what an arm

0:05:40 > 0:05:45lock the DUP has the Conservative government in. They can do whatever

0:05:45 > 0:05:50they like, they'll still get their billion pounds to be part of the

0:05:50 > 0:05:55Tory voting system. And they can really play hardball over the Irish

0:05:55 > 0:05:59language. They say the Unionist community is horrified by the idea

0:05:59 > 0:06:05Britishness would be hollowed out if you got Irish street signs and gave

0:06:05 > 0:06:08it equal respect given to the English language. They are able to

0:06:08 > 0:06:12take a hardline stance on this. The British government can't do a thing.

0:06:12 > 0:06:17The Metro, Jean-Claude Juncker against Johnson. Sounds like a

0:06:17 > 0:06:26tennis match at Wimbledon. Boxing match.More like boxing.Boris

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Johnson might have hoped the speech he made today would have made a

0:06:30 > 0:06:37bigger splash on the front pages. It was very widely trailed so it's been

0:06:37 > 0:06:42covered all the day-to-day. In a nutshell, this was Boris Johnson

0:06:42 > 0:06:46making a positive liberal outraging speech about Brexit. At the same

0:06:46 > 0:06:53time accusing junker of wanting to set up a European superstate. He

0:06:53 > 0:06:59said that's not the case. -- Juncker.It sounded like a replay of

0:06:59 > 0:07:04the referendum campaign, lots of stuff about taking back control. The

0:07:04 > 0:07:07old hoary cliche about the superstate which, as you say,

0:07:07 > 0:07:12Juncker dismissed as total nonsense. There was a very nice cartoon in the

0:07:12 > 0:07:16London Evening Standard of Boris presenting himself with a bouquet of

0:07:16 > 0:07:21roses, which spelt out the word me. It's all about him. Everything Boris

0:07:21 > 0:07:26does is not about Brexit or the greater good, in my opinion, of the

0:07:26 > 0:07:32country. It's about him and his ambition. I don't like him.The

0:07:32 > 0:07:35Florida shooting we've been reporting this evening, you are

0:07:35 > 0:07:40talking about late-breaking stories, another late-breaking story. In a

0:07:40 > 0:07:44sense we were hearing from our Washington correspondent, this is

0:07:44 > 0:07:47the 19th school shooting this year in the United States. It's

0:07:47 > 0:07:52extraordinary how many there have been.It's become commonplace hasn't

0:07:52 > 0:07:56it, it's absolutely horrifying. It is one of those things that despite

0:07:56 > 0:08:01what people often refer to as the Americanisation of British culture

0:08:01 > 0:08:07in many ways, this is something we still look at completely discounts.

0:08:07 > 0:08:13We can't understand how this is happening, how it is allowed to

0:08:13 > 0:08:18happen for a hobby but take it for granted. Although we broadly speak

0:08:18 > 0:08:21the same language, it's something where I think there is a complete

0:08:21 > 0:08:24lack of understanding.Donald Trump has treated tonight he said child,

0:08:24 > 0:08:32teacher or anyone else should feel unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:32 > 0:08:32-- unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:32 > 0:08:35-- Donald unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:35 > 0:08:36-- Donald Trump unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:36 > 0:08:36-- Donald Trump has unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:36 > 0:08:37-- Donald Trump has tweeted. unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:37 > 0:08:37-- Donald Trump has tweeted.This unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:37 > 0:08:38-- Donald Trump has tweeted.This is unsafe in an American school. Donald

0:08:38 > 0:08:39-- Donald Trump has tweeted.This is a former student only 19 years old,

0:08:39 > 0:08:44had an assault rifle, a serious weapon. Seven dead and up to 50

0:08:44 > 0:08:48injured. It pains me to say it, and I really choke on this, I agree with

0:08:48 > 0:08:58Piers Morgan about this. He said America has to try and crack down on

0:08:58 > 0:09:02it gun laws. He said that on CNN and lost his job. It's their

0:09:02 > 0:09:05constitutional right to bear arms and they would not have a Brit

0:09:05 > 0:09:17telling them otherwise.The Metro front-page. Homelessness, shaven, a

0:09:17 > 0:09:24Reach shame a homeless man has died outside the House of Commons.It's a

0:09:24 > 0:09:33tragedy, a very sad story. There is a certain grim inevitability to the

0:09:33 > 0:09:38fact that if people sleep out night after night in what has been

0:09:38 > 0:09:44extremely cold and unpleasant conditions, that in some cases could

0:09:44 > 0:09:50prove fatal.Homelessness on the rise.I agree it's a great tragedy

0:09:50 > 0:09:55for this person. It does underline there is a real rise in

0:09:55 > 0:09:59homelessness. Apparently there has been an 18% increase in rough

0:09:59 > 0:10:05sleepers in London since 2016. This sad death brings that home. How many

0:10:05 > 0:10:09homeless people you see on the streets of London now. It's very

0:10:09 > 0:10:14shocking.The express and in a couple of the other papers, the

0:10:14 > 0:10:20story about processed food being a cancer danger, it takes, crisps,

0:10:20 > 0:10:27pizza, chicken nuggets.There's nothing left for me to eat,

0:10:27 > 0:10:32disaster!It sounds like James's daily diet.I'm distraught about

0:10:32 > 0:10:40this story.You'd better stop soon. This is quite a scientific study

0:10:40 > 0:10:45showing that in our fast lives...Is there anything surprising about

0:10:45 > 0:10:49this? Nuevo Arcangel we already know processed food is cancer-causing.

0:10:49 > 0:10:55This is a new study. That's why it's on the front pages. It's a new

0:10:55 > 0:11:02study, quite a broad ranging study. Well over 100,000 people were

0:11:02 > 0:11:09surveyed by French researchers. It's gone on over an eight-year period so

0:11:09 > 0:11:17clearly it's a very well resourced and therapies of research. It says

0:11:17 > 0:11:23in the Times version of the story that a court of this number of

0:11:23 > 0:11:28people over the eight-year period it is the most ultra processed foods

0:11:28 > 0:11:36were 23% more likely to get any type of cancer. I just wonder whether...

0:11:36 > 0:11:41It's useful I'm sure for researchers to be able to specify in these

0:11:41 > 0:11:46terms, but in terms of what I think we're being taught about all the

0:11:46 > 0:11:51time, this is not actually surprising.Know, however I'm going

0:11:51 > 0:11:54to stop eating entirely so next time I want I'll turn sideways and nobody

0:11:54 > 0:11:59will be able to see me, I'll be wasting away.The messages to cook

0:11:59 > 0:12:05your own food, don't just get...We live in a fast society, fast food as

0:12:05 > 0:12:10part of it.We don't feel we have time to cook.People use eating on

0:12:10 > 0:12:14the bus, the tube, the train, everyone is on the run the whole

0:12:14 > 0:12:18time. Fast food and processed food plays into the culture. I'm not

0:12:18 > 0:12:22saying it's right, but it's the culture that everything is done in a

0:12:22 > 0:12:27rush. Being busy is the new cool, isn't it. You don't say I sat around

0:12:27 > 0:12:31twiddling my thumbs today, oh my gosh, I'm so busy.Sorry to

0:12:31 > 0:12:38interrupt. We haven't got a lot of times I've got to cutting.

0:12:39 > 0:12:44You should be on question Time! Surely there is an element of common

0:12:44 > 0:12:55sense about incorporating some fast food...It is a balance. Well said.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59Last story of the day, the Guardian, the vast majority of university

0:12:59 > 0:13:03leaders are involved in setting their own pay, is that a surprise?

0:13:03 > 0:13:08Actually if you see the amount they are paid perhaps it's not a

0:13:08 > 0:13:13surprise. In terms of accountability I think it is rather shocking. This

0:13:13 > 0:13:19is a piece of journalism the Guardian have done using a Freedom

0:13:19 > 0:13:24of information inquiry. I think they are quite right to expose this, it

0:13:24 > 0:13:30ties in with the government having brought in some new recommendations.

0:13:30 > 0:13:36Following public outcry. And press outcry about the amount of money

0:13:36 > 0:13:40certain vice chancellors were being paid.They are on 300,000, that sort

0:13:40 > 0:13:46of salary.The argument was they were in some sort of marketplace but

0:13:46 > 0:13:49it isn't really because universities are heavily subsidised by the

0:13:49 > 0:13:54government. The government is quite right to require some feedback on

0:13:54 > 0:13:59whether money is going.I agree, accountability should be top of the

0:13:59 > 0:14:04list. 95% of university leaders are part of their own remuneration

0:14:04 > 0:14:08committee. As someone who has three children at University, I'm

0:14:08 > 0:14:13outraged. I'm living in a garden shed now because of the amount I'm

0:14:13 > 0:14:18paying...Are you paying their fees question though, I'm paying their

0:14:18 > 0:14:21accommodation.I'm living in the garden shed. That's my personal

0:14:21 > 0:14:26life!Do you grow your own vegetables?I have to kick the

0:14:26 > 0:14:29crisps and pizzas anyway. The about students have to pay and the debt

0:14:29 > 0:14:33they are getting into, my oldest owes 50 grand.We will leave with

0:14:33 > 0:14:41the image of you eating fast food in a garden shed.Sleep tight.Don't

0:14:41 > 0:14:44have nightmares. Don't forget you can see the front pages of the

0:14:44 > 0:14:51papers online now BBC News website. Therefore you seven days a week/

0:14:51 > 0:14:54papers. If you missed the programme any evening you can watch it later

0:14:54 > 0:15:00on BBC iPlayer. Thanks again, Joanne and James. Goodbye from us.
