the duke of edinburgh announces he's to retire from all public duties in autumn — a decision supported by the queen. the bill is passed and without objection the motion is laid upon the table. the us house of representatives has passed a healthcare bill, bringing president trump's pledge to repeal and replace obamacare a step closer. manual macron and marine le pen are on the campaign trail in france following the badtempered tv debate ahead of a presidential election on sunday. and adrift for 32 hours in the irish sea — the rescued surfer matthew price tells the bbc he had prepared for death. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow.

with me are the former trade minister, lord digbyjones, and the broadcaster and campaigner, henry bonsu. tomorrow's front pages. they are both going to respect each other‘s opinion and not talk over each other at all! laughter the telegraph leads with the duke of edinburgh who is retiring who is retiring from public duties this autumn. the daily mail pays tribute to the prince with a salute from the nation. the sun has totted up a total of over 22,000 personal engagements made by prince philip. that is a very accurate number. the same story is on the front off the i — the paper estimates that the duke has made 5,000 speeches. the times claims that the queen's consort decided to retire to avoid growing frail in public. the mirror says the bbc claims that sir cliff richard has spent an unreasonable amount on legal fees after taking action over coverage of a police raid on his home. the guardian's main story is a warning from donald tusk for theresa may to show respect during brexit talks.

and the ft‘s top story headlines a six month slump in oil prices. there is a glut of front pages dedicated to prince philip's service over nearly 70 years and his decision announced after an emergency meeting at the palace, which got everyone excited this morning, to step down in the autumn from public service from his public duties, well, most of them anyway. the sun says he has had his phil! almost 70 years is... i am going to ask henry first. i will be evenhanded. thank you very much. it isa evenhanded. thank you very much. it is a lovely picture for a guy who is supposed to be the man of his time, the stiff upper lip. he smiles very warmly and the sun has captured that, 22,000, we think of him

alongside the queen, but he does a lot on his own, 5000 speeches, and they haven't kept out of the cou ntless they haven't kept out of the countless gaffs that he cannot win. fantastic coverage, and people will be pleased to keep this. fantastic coverage, and people will be pleased to keep thislj fantastic coverage, and people will be pleased to keep this. i think the reason it was so exciting and it was like an emergency, it is like last week, or was it the week before, when we were told theresa may would make an announcement. they are trying hard to stop leaks, aren't they? the only way to do it is you don't know anything about it, the next, bang, emergency meeting. in this review of the papers, if you look at the way they have treated the photograph, ithought look at the way they have treated the photograph, i thought it was very interesting, because in the sun, they played it, and a few years ago, maybe, at its garrulous best, a lovely one in the mail, her majesty.

which we can look at now, sandra, if you would? i was going to say, contrasting them, if you look at the times, they have him in beautiful, naval uniform. we are not using the times, digby. and if you look at that, that is how the nation would see him in his public service duty, then look at the guardian, that has an old man... he is rewriting the rules! i am not your glamorous assistant, i am the host! they have an old man frightened in a car and i thought better of the guardian than that on a day when you could celebrate something, they have played it happily. except that one. except for the guardian. if we can, we will go back to the pages four and five on the daily mail. thank you, yes. and what does it say? well, they call them the superb

royal writers, self praise is no recommendation. isn't it? they are very good at writing and they have done for several years. they call it the greatest double act of them all. and a double at writing about a double act, referring to her majesty and her husband. interesting point in this article in detail about his marvellous 70 years public service. but it says we will probably see less of her majesty in public because he is going into private life. she will probably support him more in private and therefore not be available so much to us. we have been moving towards that, haven't we, with kate, william and harry taking on the duties, and princess and is taking on more. and prince philip hasn'tjust been thinking there since the start of the year, he gave an interview on his 90th birthday in 2011, i think, when he talked about slowing down a little bit. but of course he got straight back into the fray and it has taken

six years to get to this position. very interesting insight in this piece in the mail where he talks about how the queen is still a shy person even though she has been on the throne for a long time and often she will wait before she goes into a room and greets everybody to gather herself and it is prince philip who is the warmup man and he thinks he can make anyone laugh in 15 seconds. he does that, he will put people at ease, and that is the double act. the yen and yang. people we spoke to have said that about him, he likes it when people challenge him —— ying and yang. i have sat next to him at various things and he likes a good quality argument, not a row, a good—quality discussion. and yet at the same time i can remember pat, my wife, sitting next to him, she had never done that before, she was apprehensive and he put her at her ease. she will always think well of him for that. he can have a row with me and then be... he probably made a

joke about you, digby. dave, who is producing tonight, suggested we get them into do the papers. that would be marvellous. we will get george 0sborne as well. the editor of the standard. laughter the daily telegraph, matt has had a little look at this one, and here we've got the cartoon, and it is the curtains that have been pulled back across the rail to reveal the clerk, and it says unveil your own damp plaque. it isa your own damp plaque. it is a matter of public record, of course. princess and, if she has taken on more, i don't know where she will get the time, she is one of the busiest. all of this is a matter of re cord the busiest. all of this is a matter of record but for the sun to whip it up of record but for the sun to whip it up quickly, yes. someone has had the calculator out. you often think of

him reading out a speech someone has written but he have to think something to to people every day. and even when he feels, you know, i have so much time for the royal family in this respect, they have off days, they all do, and they still have to shake hands with strangers and make them feel wonderful and they have to turn up to the 42nd millionth... they recognise they are in a unique position. ambassadorial duties for the nation. and i say god bless him and he deserves his retirement. let's look at the guardian — show respect in brexit talks, tusk tells may, in response to the leaking of the conversation she had with jean—claude juncker. i wonder whether there is a message to the other side as well to show respect and do not leak stuff. well, exactly. in negotiations, if you are

losing, get as many leaks out as you can and brief against them. i think jean—claude juncker was showing signs of that with the leak of this. interesting the way the guardian — because the guardian and the financial times are both propaganda for the remain. the other lot are the same for brexit. i am merely stating a fact. well, a propaganda sheet is not just stating a fact. well, a propaganda sheet is notjust a fact, is it? if you look at the headline of the guardian, show respect in brexit talks, tusk tells may, even the guardian carry in the third paragraph, appealing for a ceasefire, he, may, chidedjunker for leaking to downing street. so, even they have said, hey, cessation of hostilities on both sides, please, not just of hostilities on both sides, please, notjust one. yes, if you look "the guardian has, these negotiations are difficult enough as they are. if we argue before they

begin, it will be impossible. he is being the oil on troubled waters because both positions are hard at and who knows where they are going to go. it will be hard to roll back if it continues. isn't it posturing on both sides, and when they get in, of course, all of that horse, the amount of money which we will come onto ina amount of money which we will come onto in a minute, that we might have to pay to leave... we won't be privy to pay to leave... we won't be privy to the talks. we won't get a communique. so much of it will be behind closed doors. the other thing in the guardian report where i think the way they show it is good, i think that tusk is playing a blind, actually, and i think his conduct from the day he got the article 50 notice all the way through has been statesmanlike. he has been very moderate. he has risen above it. what did he say, we miss you to take it eu commission and the eu to take it lying down because it is a negotiation and they will defend their positions and hopefully meet in the middle. and there is an election to be fought in the midst

of it, and brexit will be a big issue. what i think will be lost if barnier, the eu negotiator, if he isn't careful, there are two aspects that europe wants, one is, call it for what it is, punishment. we can't have people threatening to leave, we have people threatening to leave, we have to be nasty to the brits to teach everyone a lesson. secondly, they cannot cut off their nose to spite their face and they have to look after the countries of europe. cani look after the countries of europe. can i move onto page seven of the express, this is associated, eu to face crisis with £85 billion from the uk that they need to balance the books, but david davis says these numbers are fantastical. this figure which we talked about in the previous hour came from the fta couple of mornings ago, not from the eu, the ft has a model which will scale things up from the quoted 60 billion euros, up to 100 billion euros, £85 billion. and barnier

hasn't quoted the figure. the daily express conflated these things together. the direct quote from barnier is, "we have to be rigourous in the approach to clearing the accounts." that in the approach to clearing the accounts. " that is in the approach to clearing the accounts." that is sorting out the effort bill. "0therwise accounts." that is sorting out the effort bill. "otherwise the situation might be explosive if we stop programmes, imagine the problems." not talking about riots in the street. talking about difficulties, diplomatic difficulties. he also said, in quotes, in the article, "member states don't have a right to those assets, be they drinkable or non— drinkable." the big wine cellar. and you see, there is an argument that says we have about £58 billion as a share of the eu's assets that we have helped to buy, so if i was negotiating i would say, i don't agree with the £85 billion but i would like £58 billion please, and we talk the differences. that is a fa ntasy we talk the differences. that is a fantasy figure as well. of course it

is. they haven't attributed that figure to any organisation. the figure to any organisation. the figure of £100 billion came from the ft report. they need to stop handbags at dawn and behave like statement that they are meant to be. after the election. after the general election and the french election. and the italian is coming up election. and the italian is coming up as well. the ft, a couple of stories, the thames water fined over river sewage dwarfed by £1 billion pay—outs to owners of a ten year period, thames water, privately held, dumped the equivalent of 21 supertankers of untreated sewage into the river thames, and £1 billion was paid out. how can that be justified? well, billion was paid out. how can that bejustified? well, it can't, and i wrote a book about this. what i tried to say, talking about fixing business reputations, and i feel passionately about the role of business in society and how, without the wealth creative part of it, you don't get a public—sector, you don't

get tax, and i named companies that have done nothing to help the reputation of business. loads of them. frankly, this lot have just joined the list. it breaks my heart. because a good hard—working businesswoman sitting in newcastle on time, risking her house, creating tenjobs, rarely on time, risking her house, creating ten jobs, rarely seeing on time, risking her house, creating tenjobs, rarely seeing the family, working hard, she has as much to do with that story and then they get lumped together as businesses. with that story and then they get lumped together as businesseslj with that story and then they get lumped together as businesses. i am not sure it goes together. it really worries me. and i condemn this and i am grateful to the ft for putting it on the front page. can people tell the difference between the worst of big business and a small to medium—size business? that's why we have different terms. i have been a businessman. i have taken risks, i have lost a
