11:30 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are political commentatorjames millar, and rachel cunliffe from city am. tomorrow's front pages: the ft says a city of london delegation will head to brussels this week to press for a post—brexit free—trade deal. the express leads with the crisis talks between eu officials over a surge in the number of migrants trying to reach europe. the telegraph claims the chancellor philip hammond is at odds with other senior ministers over the funding of public services. the metro says nurses are quitting the nhs in their thousands, amid increasing workloads and plunging morale. the guardian claims the uk has ditched its hope of securing a "cake and eat it" brexit deal, and also shows andy murray practising ahead of beginning
11:31 pm
the defence of his wimbledon title tomorrow. the mail says young drivers are being tempted into high levels of debt by car dealers offering them new vehicles for no money upfront. and the mirror says 69 refugees have drowned this year while trying to reach spain from africa. let's have a look through those papers. starting with the guardian, the uk ditches its cake and eat it brexit stands. going on about brexit and cake, and you despair sometimes as to how this will all turn out but according to the guardian government
11:32 pm
insiders are reporting a dramatic change of mood. the idea of cake and eat it is controlling your own borders and the sort of stuff and having access to the single market. and the suggestion is you cannot, and it is going to be difficult and messy. one year on, i gone from denial, centred on theresa may saying you can have your cake and eat it, and now we are into bargaining, which is what side do you want. hopefully we can skip the anger and depression but really what you have this two options, high access and low control, which is like the ea, and the other is higher access with economic cost. this has been the dilemma since the beginning, it was the dilemma during the referendum, of if we leave the eu what kind of deal do we want? the
11:33 pm
fa ct eu what kind of deal do we want? the fact it has taken a year for the government to at least acknowledged it is not particularly encouraging, although at least they are acknowledging it now. it is one of the oldest things there is, that you can't have your cake and eat it. this is the sort of headline you would expect from the guardian. one thing i would suggest is it is all insiders, and i'm issuing its fairly well sourced for them to have it on the front like that. it is all doom and gloom. in the sun, we are going inside 2—page two. the pm must go in june 2019. you inside 2—page two. the pm must go in june 20 19. you think she will last that long? what is interesting about this is they want her to start her departure timetable and say that she will leave on time, after the brexit deal but before the 2020 to general election. if anyone thinks that we
11:34 pm
can get to 2022 without a general election i have a bridge to sell them. the tory party does not want theresa may as leader, they will not forgive herfor theresa may as leader, they will not forgive her for the election theresa may as leader, they will not forgive herfor the election result, but as we discussed on this programme before there is not another leader in the wings, and clearly the tory party shadowy figures who make all the decisions think it would do more damage to replace her now without a leader. there was talk yesterday, when we heard from this former aide to david davis saying that he was hamstrung, and there was talk that maybe david davis is placing himself, maybe, or philip hammond, maybe. there is no alternative, but there is no shortage of ready exclusively men who think they can do the job, but no one actually wants them. if she said she was going injune 2019, the
11:35 pm
idea that these gigantic egos would sit on their hands and say the leadership campaign starts in 2019, thatis leadership campaign starts in 2019, that is just for the birds. they would be all over each other and the party for the next two years, trying to jockey for position. is quite contradictory, really. senior tories wa nt contradictory, really. senior tories want her to spell out her departure timetable, exactly what you just said. if she spells out the timetable now, there is zero chance of heror timetable now, there is zero chance of her or anyone else getting timetable now, there is zero chance of her or done ie else getting timetable now, there is zero chance of her or done for lse getting timetable now, there is zero chance of her or done for the getting timetable now, there is zero chance of her or done for the next 1g timetable now, there is zero chance of her or done for the next two years anything done for the next two years but if we were in any doubt that the tory party was not happy with her, this would clarify things. which means perhaps that jeremy this would clarify things. which means perhaps thatjeremy corbyn is very secure. he can put his troubles to one side. his position as leader is more secure to one side. his position as leader is more secure now to one side. his position as leader is more secure now following the election. certainly his position is more secure election. certainly his position is more secure than theresa may's. even though he lost the election, somehow. but obviously last week we had the queen '5 speech stuff, and where labour exactly sits on the eu
11:36 pm
and what their policy really is, he is back in parliament, he had a pretty torrid time when he was leaving with his mps before the election, and i suspect we will slide back into labour chaos as well. i don't think it will take particularly long, i think the divide is on the eu will come to the forefront very soon. we have 49 mps vote against what the party mps were telling them to do, he sacked some of his frontbenchers, some resigned. those issues have not gone away and as soon as those issues have not gone away and as soon as he makes a mistake i think they are waiting to try and oust him. good luck. let's turn to the times, and theresa may began on the times, and theresa may began on the front page. this time her terror plans are being condemned. it is this never—ending chipping away at her authority. yes, exactly. it is a different angle. in some ways a better angle, because the guardian stories are essentially tittle tattle and sources. this is her
11:37 pm
independent reviewer of counterterrorism legislation suggesting that the idea that you have to find facebook and google for not taking down extremist content is both unnecessary and unworkable —— fine. and it is her own watchdog, as well. that is what is really about it, is w of the centre of her anti— kind of the centre of her anti— extremism or counterterrorism proposals, and she has got her own watchdog criticising herfor it. i think what you have got here, and you also it those flan“? rudd §m5§ rudd made a that amberfrfidflh'madeiaiwhfle—bacicfi about encryption, is that the people in government don't necessarily understand the technology, and they wa nt understand the technology, and they want policies, obviously they want to keep us safe, and they want policies which look like that is what they are doing, but if they don't understand the technology they don't understand the technology they don't have a hope of doing anything remotely workable. and obviously the home office is her stomping ground.
11:38 pm
it is very much a home office mentality, isn't it? staying with the times, and the top of the page. britain braced for a snap trump visit after attack goes viral. president trump may drop in and visit reason. he has a gap in his diary between the g20 summit and his next engagement, a lovely way of introducing a story. basically if he is going to come to the uk, he is not going to meet the queen, he is going to meet theresa may, he is going to meet theresa may, he is going to meet theresa may, he is going to visit his golf course, so thatis going to visit his golf course, so that is his priority, and you get a sense that the reason it will be so short notice, 2a hours' notice, is because his people y time short notice, 2a hours' notice, is ben there to people % time ! short notice, 2a hours' notice, is ben there to be >ple % time ! short notice, 2a hours' notice, is ben there to be a ile % time ! short notice, 2a hours' notice, is ben there to be a protest. ! time ! short notice, 2a hours' notice, is ben there to be a protest. i! time ! short notice, 2a hours' notice, is ben there to be a protest. i mean, e! for there to be a protest. i mean, good luck with that in scotland. you can organise protests pretty quickly. you also worry it is because he has no idea what he is t1 he
11:39 pm
§fact|e a snap trump visit, because call it a snap trump visit, because the snap election went so well. so the snap election went so well. so the end of this week, possibly? the snap election went so well. so the end of this week, possibly7m is before he goes to bastille day, after the g20, beforejuly is before he goes to bastille day, after the g20, before july finishes. looking at the 5&5 and l looking at the 5&5 and the mirror, and it is migrants dominating theirfront mirror, and it is migrants dominating their front pages. we have the eu in crisis over boat migrants, and migrants on cost at beaches. two very different approaches to the same story. it is largely a story because the weather has improved, leading to more attempts to get across the
11:40 pm
mediterranean. but whereas the express claims that europe is under siege from these migrants, which is just ridiculous, because these people are in no condition to besiege anything, the mirror calls it an avalanche, which is a sort of natural occurrence. it is a very interesting exercise in different ways of approaching the same story. you have the mirror referring to it as tragic, as hell. the weight... i looked at the story on the inside pages and it talks about children who have died, profiling some of them, and it talks about the tourists who are on these beaches, and their take on the grief and the tragedy that they are seeing could not be more different to the express story, which is all quotes from mainly ukip representatives or story, which is all quotes from mainly‘ ukip representatives or story, which is all quotes from mainly‘ ukip representatives l talking story, which is all quotes from mainly‘ ukip re shows :atives l talking to reform i migration and needs to reform its migration and asylu m needs to reform its migration and asylum policy, which maybe it does, but they are really using that story
11:41 pm
asa but they are really using that story as a way in to criticise the eu. let's turn to the mail. this story has been building over the last few months in the papers. it is par loa ns. months in the papers. it is par loans. it is an interesting one. it isa loans. it is an interesting one. it is a consumer loans. it is an interesting one. it is a consumer sort loans. it is an interesting one. it is a consumer sort of story, it works for daily mail readers, people like your normal people who have cars, and it ticks a lot of boxes. in this country we have politicians, journalists and bankers who are all a bit dodgy, and they are going for car salesman. because there is no one more dodgy than a car salesman. sitting in his lime green armchair, like that is the worst thing they have. but there is something serious
11:42 pm
because from what they are reporting, young people are walking in off the street without an apparent income and being offered loa ns apparent income and being offered loans of thousands of pounds, and it kind of snacks of the financial crisis, and a sort of pyramid scheme. itjust crisis, and a sort of pyramid scheme. it just sounds unsustainable. lee mack and they do make that point that this is consumer debt again, people who clearly don't have the means to pay. sometimes who are themselves in credit card debt, being encouraged to ta ke credit card debt, being encouraged to take on loans that they can't afford to pay back. because there are so many stages afford to pay back. because there are so many stages in between the people who hold the debt and the people who hold the debt and the people who hold the debt and the people who are taking about that it seems so removed people who are taking about that it seems so removed that it seems a really good idea and there is definitely the sense, reading the story, but this is something that could blow up very badly. it is being being compared to the sub—prime mortgage crisis. being being compared to the sub-prime mortgage crisis. let's being being compared to the sub—prime mortgage crisis. let's go back to the guardian, and we are
11:43 pm
talking wimbledon. stroppy zen cream. two different players on that page " cream. two different players on that page —— strawberries and cream. cream. two different players on that page -- strawberries and cream. the daily mail and the telegraph have gone with a pretty young lady, well done, she has got into wimbledon, andi done, she has got into wimbledon, and i wish her the best. but there might be something behind it. they have gone for a full—length shot whereas the guardian picture of andy murray is andy murray looking aggressive and actually playing tennis rather than looking all demure. i can see why you you pass that one over. i agree, it would be great if she was playing or if they had a picture ofjohanna konta, our actual hope of winning the women's title. again, best of luck to the wild card. she will love the fact that she is on the front page of the
11:44 pm
daily telegraph. would she? all would she rather be on it for winning a match and playing tennis, rather than being a pretty young lady? yes, you need a favourite, really, don't you? one i hope she wins tomorrow, and i hope she is on the front page on tuesday. and i will be watching andy murray very closely. the women's title is also wide open at the moment, because serena williams is pregnant, maria sharapova can't play at the moment for a variety of reasons. will it be another venus williams, you have federate, you have andy murray, you have nadal, you have djokovic tom are all playing in the men's game, and the women's game is wide open. johanna konta all the way. thank you, james and rachel. that's it for the papers this hour. coming up next,
11:45 pm
it is the film review. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. so mark, what do we have this week? a mixed bag this week. we have a man called ove, which is a portrait of a grumpy old man. we have despicable me 3, the minions are back. and risk, a documentary. lots to talk about but my most important role this week is to get the pronunciation right of a man called ove. it seems to be "over".
