the metro leads on this afternoon's armed siege in nuneaton, it reports the gunman shouted ‘game over‘ as he entered the bowling alley. the japanese election is the lead in the financial times, it says a sweeping win for the prime minister gives him a fresh mandate for his signature economic policy. the sun says the government is being ridiculed for trying to ban the term pregnant women in an effort not to offend transgender parents. 50 children a week are being sent to see gender realignment doctors, according to the daily mirror. and finally, the express claims britain faces what it calls 11 more wild storms before the end of winter. philip hammond has been in the papers all weekend, certainly, sunday's papers, ruth, kick us off. more tory cabinet splits, it seems philip hammond has his enemies within the cabinet. people who

presumably want his job. i within the cabinet. people who presumably want hisjob. i must within the cabinet. people who presumably want his job. i must say, last week, when directly would be squeezing pensioners in order to do something about the intergenerational inequality, putting more money towards younger people, i thought he was playing with fire, politically, considering it is meant to be a conservative government. we all remember the effects of the dementia tax during the election, talking about squeezing pensioners...” the election, talking about squeezing pensioners... i think it was a wise thing to do because they lost the vote of the young. they know that. they are so desperate. if this becomes a party of the old, and lam this becomes a party of the old, and iaman this becomes a party of the old, and i am an old person, and i would be losing out but i think it is time that we gave up something and the young got something. whether we think it is a good or bad thing, perhaps we disagree on that, for a conservative government to talk about squeezing their core vote, strikes me as slightly politically... strikes me as slightly politically. . . what strikes me as slightly politically... what about the next generation. young people get older and then they vote tory. it is not true, it is not true. we

are only months away from budget and i notice, number ten meant to be incandescent that philip hammond had been talking about this... remember, this is the times, and they are bigging up michael gove, because rupert murdoch loves michael gove, every time you read the times, michael gove is being set up for some kind of enthroned. and he is the worst person for it. i'm going to agree with you now. because some people are saying that he is going to be given the job. it must be worrying to be described as toxic muck that the chancellor is toxic. such a quiet man, and it seems to me, according to this, whatever he does, because he is not a passionate brexiteer, that is part of the underlying problem, but then when he

did the stupid thing of calling the european union enemies, in order to please the right, and you can never really pleased the right of the tory party... notjust "brexit", there is disharmony, the kind of lack of any unity... very worrying. his last budget was somewhat unfortunate, if i remember correctly. what was it? he came out with proposals, and he had to drop them. i thought it was a good idea! will have to see how the next one polls. we started talking about brexit, the guardian picks up the story. business chiefs demanding urgent transition deal. all about business. it is quite complicated, but i think that there are some business leaders who think this is a very good thing. not a universal lobby, that you get, dyson, for example, isa

lobby, that you get, dyson, for example, is a very strong brexiteer, the man who owns wetherspoon 's as well, but leading collectives of big business are now very worried. partly because of the uncertainty, the uncertainty that gets them. that is what they have been saying, one way or the other, we need a clear path. i think this is a matter that has been signed off by the lobbying groups... saying that they want some definite view on what the transition arrangement is going to be, in other words, they want david davis to go to brussels and agree on something. all i can say to all of them is, didn't they see what happened at the european council summit when david davis, desperately wanting to move onto the next stage of the talks, in other words, the transition deal, and the trend, and michel barnier and the trend, and michel barnier and everybody else said, sorry, there has not been sufficient progress. i think that they are being a little naive, if i may say so. being a little naive, if i may say so. it is a way of putting pressure,

when i watched liam fox today, babbling on the television programme, like he is a wizard who is going to make things happen...! there will not be able to make things happen, they will have to work closely with the enemy, if they are the enemy, to come up with a solution. and i find the childishness of some of the leading figures quite alarming.” childishness of some of the leading figures quite alarming. i am a fan of liam fox. my god! my god! laughter. really? we share a birthday. however we felt about the european council summit last week, i thought it was a bit more positive, ifelt summit last week, i thought it was a bit more positive, i felt angela merkel was quite positive, ifelt that tusk... they had to be, they we re very that tusk... they had to be, they were very supportive of her... but... what has been achieved?” think they made a bit of progress,

the tone was better, after theresa may's florence ‘s speech, which was very conciliatory, then they don't... will very conciliatory, then they will not what the cabinet did when she got back home, i agree that the florence speech was deeply civilised, she called friends and someone, civilised, she called friends and someone, but as soon as she comes back, the rabid right breaks out into this school boy madness again. you know, there are 27 nations that have to be persuaded. i know they keep talking about france and germany but actually it is... there is only one, it is called germany.” don't think so. last week was better, i think. what you think will happen between now and december, because all the preparation work being done behind closed doors, but we have got... david davis meeting with the french minister, the french foreign minister tomorrow... what exactly is going to be going on? it

is behind closed doors. as i understand it, the eu 27, without us being there, is going to talk about the next stage of talks, trade, the transition period, that these business leaders are so keen on. i am optimistic that they might actually start coming up with some fairly positive ideas. very interesting last week that bloomberg announced that actually, the german foreign ministry was talking about wanting a deep relationship with the uk. i thought that was very positive. a lot of this is predicated on the fact that we get the cheque—book out, because theresa may has already said, 20 million euros, i think they want at least twice that. emmanuel macron made that... there is a wing of the tory party which will never be satisfied. there is a wing of every party which will never be satisfied. they are in power, they are taking us over the cliff. while we are talking about settling bills, let's move to the financial times, capitalism, greed,

tax dodgers... this is a bit rich, don't you think, apparently, the former boss of marks & spencer is saying that capitalism has lost its way, and how investors are too focused on the short—term and shareholder value, that is actually what companies are about. they are accountable to their shareholders, because the shareholders own the company. i'm not quite sure... this is an important debate, i'm pleased it is coming out and it is in the financial times. the baroness, who used to be a former minister, now heads up santander, it is time to talk... there is capitalism and there is capitalism, we have a kind which is as wild as the east india company. absolutely crazy. even back then, you know, they were held to account, eventually, saying this is not real, this is not what

capitalism is about. capitalism was held to account. it is accountable to shareholders. the way that the banks behaved... shocking, i agree. too much agreement here! laughter you work for them... that is the problem. game over, game over. moving on to the metro obviously, the siege that took place in nuneaton, looks like it was a domestic type siege, we have not yet had confirmation, there was concern, you know, that it could be something more. . . you know, that it could be something more... i am very pleased it is not getting worse, and i think we should not be worrying... unless there is a plot behind this, i think it is... seems like it was handled very well, on the part of the company as well, putting in place there train... nuneaton, who would have expected

it. any thing can happen in a bowling alley. don't call mothers pregnant women... what is this one. . . pregnant women... what is this one... you would not call them a pregnant woman... it is the sun, as we know, the son runs stories which we know, the son runs stories which we really have too interrogate a little bit better. so i don't believe it, sorry, i don't believe any of this. what more can one say, there is plenty of governments drivel anyway, so where does one start. what will we be called? i don't believe this is true, it will be more subtle than this and we don't have enough information on the front page, it isjust about 30 words, so we don't know enough to stop i don't believe this is the story. hopefully we will get a little more in the next edition of the newspapers at 11:30pm. in the meantime... doom and gloom... doom

and gloom on the front of the daily express. it is autumn, autumn storms, right? are we worried?” think something is happening in the world and i think it is now happening to us too and people are waking up that there is a big change happening. i think there has always been storms, certainly, they have been storms, certainly, they have been happening in this country and across the west... but what is happening, it is giving people something to think about. talking climate change. but also... when it was happening in bangladesh, when it was happening in bangladesh, when it was happening in bangladesh, when it was happening out there, out there, nobody really thought about it too much, and now, people are beginning to think. i think that is no bad thing. i think we were a little bit complacent. don't agree with me, please. i'm not going to. thank youi!) please. i'm not going to. thank you(!) presumably we will go halfway

through the alphabet before we get too... ruth...? yasmin... (i) laughter cannot wait! that is it for the newspapers for the moment, we will find out what that story in the sun is, make sure you join us. in the meantime, goodbye for now, it is time for meet the author. william shakespeare had a younger brother, richard. but we know even less about him than we do about the bard.
