ten, a pressure building in again. ten, 3 lot pressure building in again. ten, a lot of dry weather, some pleasantly warm sunny lot of dry weather, some pleasantly warm sunny spells. holder at night. you can plan your weatherfor the week ahead on our website. hello. this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines. the american national weather service has described the flooding from tropical storm harvey as being "beyond anything experienced." officials say there are more tornado warnings for tonight as thousands of people are rescued from rising floodwaters. following a suspected chemical leak in the eastbourne area, at least 230 are treated. police warn residents and visitors to avoid the beaches and stay indoors. two lorry drivers have been charged with causing death by dangerous

driving after yesterday's crash on the m1. one of the eight victims to be named is minibus driver cyriacjoseph, who was 52. labour has committed, for the first time, to keeping the uk in the single market and customs union during a transition period after leaving the eu. it says it's to avoid the economy falling off a "cliff edge." hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political commentator and journalist, daisy mcandrew, and tim stanley, lead writer at the daily telegraph. tomorrow's front pages. of course some of the papers feature tropical storm harvey. the ft reports that the us state of houston has been hit by "catastrophic" flooding as the storm caused torrential rains along much of the texas coast. the express focuses on what it calls

labour's u—turn on the single market, saying the party is facing a backlash from mps after announcing a shift in party policy on brexit. the sun suggests scientists in the us have found a breakthrough to prevent the risk of heart attack and cancer. the i also leads with the same story. they say the drug has been welcomed by the british heart foundation. the guardian's headline is backlash over labour's shift to soft brexit. they report that the move risks alienating thousands of voters in traditional seats who support greater controls on immigration. the daily mail, also reports on the new study which claims thousands of lives could be saved thanks to a new heart drug hailed as the biggest breakthrough since statins. the times claims that a young christian child was taken from her family and allegedly forced to live with foster carers where she was encouraged to learn arabic. we will begin with that story from

the times. tell us what has been claimed. it is a very interesting story. controversial for many reasons. controversial for what tower hamlets is being accused of and for the times itself. it is an exclusive written by a fantastic journalist with a reputation for getting big scoops. there is a part of me that thinks there is more to this story than meets the eye. i suspect this is the beginning of a number of stories on fostering children. this fight here old little girl, you can see her on the front page, pixelated, has been placed into foster care, ta ken page, pixelated, has been placed into foster care, taken away from her mother, and pay for them was on family. —— five—year—old. they don't speak english all the time at home. you can see they were a burka. the

controversy is people will think this is pandering to racist views. why should you not have one religion fostering another when you come down to it, if the child cannot make herself understood, does not make herself understood, does not make herself heard, that is a serious problem and could be very distressing for the child. then you come to the whys. are then no white families, non— muslim families —— there no. you think there cannot be nonein there no. you think there cannot be none in the area. they have not had problems in the past putting white children with white foster parents. it seems to me this is either the way from the times of saying how many more stories like these are out there? is there a greater scandal about fostering in tower hamlets? we

will find out more. i have something to say from them soon. the times has been told that across london there are several examples of white british children with nonwhite foster carers. this sounds like the beginning of a series of scoops. the question is, to what extent does this contradicts the children's act that requires before making any decision about a child, the local authority should give thought to the racial origin, religious background, and cultural and linguistic background. there is nothing wrong with a muslim family fostering a white child. of course not. it is about the law. there have been cases of conservative christian, politically conservative families, who have been denied the right to

foster. is this case like claimed? a child baptised in a church put with a muslim family that do not meet the apparent standard return in the 1989 act? and this particular muslim foster mother has been saying things to this child like white women all drink too much, you are immoral, thatis drink too much, you are immoral, that is a quote. tower hamlets is saying this. we have a comment from a council spokesperson. we are unable to comment on individual cases, those subjects to court proceedings. we provide loving homes for hundreds of children every year and in every case we give absolute consideration for the background and cultural identity of the children.

all foster carers receive training and support from the council to make sure they are fully qualified to meet the needs of the children in their care. if this foster mother has had this training and if the quotes are not true, it has not worked. the other thing that makes me feel squeamish is even though you cannot see her face, me feel squeamish is even though you cannot see herface, this is a vulnerable child, one with a difficult life already, on the front page of the times. that makes me feel uneasy. if it is because this isa feel uneasy. if it is because this is a story that desperately needs to be told, i understand why. but it makes me feel... is it not more than one family? i don't think so. they are concentrating on one but they say they have heard of others.|j heard it was two muslim families where this happened. they have apparently done through to households. just to round this conversation off, we cannot verify it at this point in time. we put it

out there because it is on the front page of the times. this is another reason. it is tower hamlets. they have a very controversial past. we remember the man was sacked and the council stripped of its powers in the past. —— mayor. that makes it more newsworthy when something happens. the express. the coverage of labour's record u—turn, as they call it. the record on brexit. they said they wanted to leave the customs union. but kier starmer has nailed their colours to the mast and say they support a transition period, one in which britain stays within the customs union. they say

it will last i— for years. then a new relationship will be created. —— 1-4 new relationship will be created. —— 1—4 labour is trying to carve a position which will win over remainers and leavers. however, the express... we were saying this that several stories are reported differently in different papers. most papers have, the same line, which is interesting. there will be a political cost to take this position. many remainers wanted this. but many ukip voters and tory voters and brexit voters voted for labour with the understanding they accepted the vote. many voted leave

from labour. the tories... it was a mixed picture, the selection. the tories did pretty well in the north. it is good news in that it means we are back in a pre—election position where we know what labour's position is. wanting to stay with the single market. that gives the tories an opportunity. it might be worth showing the front page of the guardian. it is doing a similar thing. they are using the term soft brexit. we will hear more about that. any decision, announcement, is political. this is an especially political. this is an especially political decision. the labour party has decided that things are shifting ina certain has decided that things are shifting in a certain direction. soft brexit

is now the way to go. the labour frontbenchers were sacked, if you remember, for voting against hard brexit, just a number of months ago. this is a huge u—turn and should not be written up as anything other. but if they believe there is a lot of buyer's remorse, regretful brexiteers, they are wrong. the evidence shows people are not regretting it. if you ask them in a poll do you think the government is handling it well, anonymous lay no, 65%. people would not vote differently. —— in an anonymous way. they could be looking to form a parliamentary alliance. they essentially have within parliament, they are starting to manifest a

2—pronged go, on the one hand to rewrite the legislation, safeguarding environmental standards and perhaps pressuring the government to say we will stay within the single market in the transition period. that is the first thing. parliamentary action. the second thing is to try to make the case for a second referendum. once the negotiations are over, britain will get a second chance to vote on this. that will leave open the option for the status quo. but this man says that is what the single market means when it comes to politics in this country, it means. . . politics in this country, it means... most people would be happy to stay in the single market for purely a trading relationship. but most see that opens up the gates to mass migration. that is what they feel leaving the eu was about stopping. in the final minutes, the images in front of the papers from

texas. very frightening. we have seen the moving pictures on this channel and others denied. people calling at the worst natural disaster to hit the states for many yea rs. disaster to hit the states for many years. —— tonight. i heard earlier it was five dead, but that number is expected to increase significantly. we hope it does not. even if it does not, the damage being caused to livelihoods and properties is intense. when you see these before and after pictures of how strong it is, it is extraordinary. it looks like a third world country. we just don't get those kinds of weather incidents. it remains to be seen how the president copes with it on twitter. there has been talk of him

going there on tuesday. interesting to see how that unfolds. that is it. don't forget, all of the front pages our on don't forget, all of the front pages ouron line on don't forget, all of the front pages our on line on the bbc news website. —— are on line. it is there for you every day of the week. you can see tonight's edition on line. thank you. and now it is the film review.
