the guardian cites a new report showing the impact of pay freezes on nurses and police officers. the ft leads with a plea from two government ministers that the uk should be prepared to work closely with eu regulators in order to protect our pharmaceutical industry after brexit. the i claims a new form of cancer treatment based on dna testing could help millions of patients. the telegraph says that charities that pester donors for cash, face being fined up to £25,000 under new rules introduced this week and the express says a fresh heatwave will hit the uk this week — it's expected to rise to 32 degrees in london by the weekend. what a scorcher! starting with the metro, this is a dreadful story, the island of jersey. metro, this is a dreadful story, the island ofjersey. tear down the house of horrors, the picture of the haut de la garenne children's home, decades of abuse, a report several yea rs decades of abuse, a report several years in the making. the report is out now and they say that there are
10:46 pm
some children in jersey out now and they say that there are some children injersey who may still be at risk? that's right, extraordinary story and it is very difficult to read. this is 57 years of abuse and hundreds of cases. although, as you rightly said, the chief minister ofjersey today, on receiving the report, apologised, it actually seems that one of the findings is that the lessons haven't been learnt even now and that there are children in jersey, been learnt even now and that there are children injersey, in the care ofjersey who are not being looked after properly and who are still very ru na round after properly and who are still very i’u na round or. after properly and who are still very runaround or. such a horrific story —— still very vulnerable. they are going with the story that the home should be raised to the ground but it seems it will take more than that to ensure that this is never repeated. some things are absolutely
10:47 pm
horrendous and it isn't a story to be taken horrendous and it isn't a story to be ta ken lightly. horrendous and it isn't a story to be taken lightly. as you say, the enquiry has been years in the making. sexual abuse, children were victimised, beaten, put in solitary confinement, separated from their friends. absolutely dreadful. and this, the building on the front, haut de la garenne. the report says that, it talks about the jersey way, i don't know if you have heard of it, it is a mindset where you are proud of the traditions and history of the island but wrapped up in that there is a sense that society closes ra nks there is a sense that society closes ranks when there is controversy and the so—called jersey way, the report explicitly says it may have been a contributing factor to people not coming forward and talking about it. so shocking and the examples, youngsters selling flowers in the
10:48 pm
street until they sell enough. they looked at 500 offences between 2007 and 2010, and that wasjust looked at 500 offences between 2007 and 2010, and that was just three years but it is many more years involved, so no surprise the paper is saying to tear it down. it is generations of abuse and no transparency. none at all. the times, you have been tweeting about this, christopher, this whole thing about scrapping the i% pay cap. you can't understand how the tories have got into this. they won the election, they didn't lose it, they won it and now this is the front page of the times, scrap tax to —— scrap tax cuts to boost state paid. briefly, i can't speak now! it is a
10:49 pm
strange row because the tories were the biggest party, they are panicking about why corbyn did so well and they think, 0k, he offered money to public sector workers, so we'll do that as well. tuition fees we re we'll do that as well. tuition fees were a hit, so we will hint something about that. it was chaotic. it is baffling why they are bothering, they are getting no credit, we are five years from an election. now you have these ministers bullying and hectoring philip hammond who is trying to control the bucket and hit the deficit target, by the next decade, so deficit target, by the next decade, so it isa deficit target, by the next decade, so it is a bad luck. looks like they have lost, they are having a nervous breakdown. it is complete disarray. as lord lamont said today, other cabinet ministers are appearing to publicly gang up on the chancellor.
10:50 pm
even last week philip hammond was said to be angry that his budget in the 0rton was being anticipated and promises were being given —— his budget in the autumn. there is quite a lot of detail speculation about what tax cuts he may be forced into reversing, ones that have been promised but not put into effect, to find extra money to pay public sector workers. it would get him out ofa sector workers. it would get him out of a hole because he does not want to put taxes up, he does not want to borrow, he does not want to do that. this would get him out of a hole, maybe he is pushing the story!|j think maybe he is pushing the story!” think this story is so complicated already, let's not introduce any more! they have pledged to reduce corporation tax even further, from i9%, to corporation tax even further, from
10:51 pm
19%, to i7% corporation tax even further, from i9%, to i7% and a suggestion here that if they did not do that it is quite a lot of extra money for the public sector workers. there is a lot of anger, the cap on public sector workers when we are forced to congratulate them every couple of weeks when they sold a disaster, like a terrorist attack or a public tragedy like grenfell tower and then we aren't playing them. the tory government should be trying to put more money back in the pockets of people who voted for it and dropping the threshold of 40%, even the lower rate, i think is the wrong answer.” also supposed to be the party of fiscal discipline so they have a real problem —— bay supposed to be the park it full —— bayard supposed to be the target. —— they are supposed to be the party. it was said that you cannot get rid of the i% it was said that you cannot get rid of the 1% cap because they must be fiscally responsible and they still
10:52 pm
have a deficit of 80% of gdp, whatever. a lot. i said... have a deficit of 80% of gdp, whatever. a lot. isaid... he have a deficit of 80% of gdp, whatever. a lot. i said... he said, we must be fiscally disciplined and we must be fiscally disciplined and we must be sensible but i said, you have public sector workers, the argument is that they have taken a real terms cut in pay for the last one, six, seven years. inflation is really going up. things will be hitting people. he says he will not balance the books until 2025 and ken clarke said he did not think anyone was talking about a i% clarke said he did not think anyone was talking about a 1% cap until 2025. who knows? you never know. the financial times, top ministers pushing to keep eu farming ties after brexit. interesting on two levels, it is more evidence of the
10:53 pm
weird cabinet free for all. any minister at the top of government seems to be making their pitch for public sympathy or manoeuvring. why not, they can get away with it. there is no discipline within the cabinet. two ministers, jeremy hunt of health and greg clark whiting a joint letter saying that they want to keep these very close ties with the eu over the drug industry, pharmaceuticals and health, which is very interesting because it is very important for nhs treatment, drugs coming on stream and having the regulatory structure allowing patients to get them as quickly as possible, but it is also important to the pharmaceutical industry. what is going to happen if every cabinet minister in their particular sector sta rts minister in their particular sector starts saying, 0k, brexit, fine but not my bit of business and industry?
10:54 pm
why are the ft saying this, why not write a letter to the cabinet minister, or david davies? this is not business as usual. wide are they pitching it at me instead of david davies? it is lobbying in public. on every single issue. it says the letter has been passed by downing street but it is very odd. it again makes it looks as if the prime minister's authority isn't strong at the cabinet level. the daily telegraph, charities facing fine for pestering. a lot of rows about this. 0n pestering. a lot of rows about this. on thursday they are launching a new line where you can report any kind of... if you are being bombarded by
10:55 pm
marketing and text messages you can say stop and within 28 days if they don't stop, a fine by the information commissioner. it is a stick to try and stop this and forcing them to improve. it is the elderly being affected. you can complain on behalf of a relation, a concerned son complain on behalf of a relation, a concerned sofi of complain on behalf of a relation, a concerned son or daughter. the eye newspaper, —— the i paper, personalised cancer care based on genes. in an annual report there has been a call for a complete change to how we treat cancer patients, essentially saying we must bring it up essentially saying we must bring it up to date and that means gene testing, dna analysis for every person who presents to the nhs. this could improve care. at the moment,
10:56 pm
people can end up being sent around to several different specialists before a treatment plan is in effect and it may not be appropriate for that individual and their genetic make—up. she says, give everybody a test and then you know what you are targeting. it is the frontier of medical science and research and it would change the way that individual patients received their care. at the bottom of the i, the tv guide, how to prevent terror... inaudible . that is the papers for you. the times newspaper, memory lapses are good for your brain. one of the best stories in the paper. the best i've seen stories in the paper. the best i've seenin stories in the paper. the best i've seen in many years! you must blame your evolved mechanisms for neural
10:57 pm
transience, our brains are saying that something isn't important, forget that. why would i bother anyway? the important stuff stays in. more than that, it says that the brain deliberately decides to forget things that you don't need any more so things that you don't need any more so you things that you don't need any more so you can things that you don't need any more so you can deal with new tjallingii information. and it is like not having enough bandwidth —— challenging information. what i find odd is that i have total recall for music lyrics from the 1980s, which i don't actually need! i'm worried that they are blocking space. so when i forget the keys, my bus pass, whatever, it is actually a sign that my brain is clicking along at a cracking rate! i'm actually on the ball. it actually says it is a sign of intelligence. those with
