11:32 pm
bringing us tomorrow. with me are the deputy head of sport at the sun, martin lipton, and the political commentator, jane merrick. tomorrow's front pages, starting with the i, picking up on disagreements overfuture irish border arrangements which, the paper says, could derail brexit plans. the financial times reports on two large pharmaceutical investments into the uk, providing a boost to theresa may's vision for post—brexit britain. the metro reports on the stolen car which crashed, killing five people, including two schoolboys. the telegraph claims that a security review will recommend prioritising investment in cyber security, rather than the traditional armed forces. the times runs with an investigation into thousands of children that are being used by criminal gangs as drugs runners. the guardian leads with a report claiming that patients‘ lives are being put at risk as inexperienced doctors are being left to run a&e units. the mirror reports on claims that russian cyber units are spreading false information about
11:33 pm
flu jabs in the uk. and the express says that britain should brace for a month of icy weather in the run—up to christmas. let's begin with the times and an investigation that has been running. the headline, thousands of children groomed as drug mules on a huge scale. this is a pretty horrendous story. genuinely chilling. and terrifying, i have to say. the suggestion in this story is the criminal gangs are using children as drug runners, grooming children as young as 12. the national crime agency involved here, and it has been dubbed the county line struck with urban gangs moving the drug between the inner—city and out—of—town locations, and it sounds like an absolutely horrendous
11:34 pm
situation which the police are now trying to counteract. children being basically sucked into helping these drug gangs across the country all over the place, from coast to coast. and the approach to it now is to get at the gangs by using human trafficking and slavery legislation to impose harsher penalties because they are much greater punishments, maximum sentences. they are much greater punishments, maximum sentences. they using children because if they get caught with drugs on the assumption would be they are treated as a minor. exactly. this is the appalling thing, they the most vulnerable children in the country, a lot of them are in care medicine as 12, as you say, and it is appalling and a one scale it is a similar technique thatis one scale it is a similar technique that is using in rochdale and rubber, the grooming scandal there,
11:35 pm
they are being groomed to do this but once again, these children, what is the care system doing? how are these children being allowed to be taken in this way? i think it is an important investigation into what is an appalling operation on a massive scale. and the way they get them to actually comply is through some really appalling violence. pretty graphic, you can read this. they include kidnapped, torture, severe physical attacks, threats to rape, and kill. the most vile use of live rich on young vulnerable people. it is utterly despicable. this is the first time i've seen this, it has come out of the blue, i think. and i think it will rumble through for a period of time. it is really worrying. the guardian, health
11:36 pm
stories, safety fears as junior doctors are left to run a&e.|j stories, safety fears as junior doctors are left to run me. i think anybody who has had anyone who knows it has been a patient or a doctor even working in the nhs in the last few months will save the pressure is on the nhs are bigger than ever and it isn't about the money, it is the stuff also, and all sorts of things, at the story in the guardian is that they are under such pressure to fill they are under such pressure to fill the gaps in the a&e departments which are the most critical parts of the whole system, that they are being thought of led by inexperienced young doc is. there is a case here, this is a warning by the head of the general medical council and they are saying that examples here, a huge survey has taken examples here, a huge survey has ta ken place examples here, a huge survey has taken place of how they have uncovered this, a survey of 55,000 junior doctors, and this is quite a sort of regular occurrence, and a group of young doc is straight out of medical school in charge of a&e and left with decisions that are thought of literally life or death.
11:37 pm
imean, it thought of literally life or death. i mean, it is really, really disturbing. very little supervision, it says, being asked to work way beyond their competence. is this not also part of the fact we have had this idea of masochism structured within medical industry where to prove that you are good enough to be a junior doctor you have to work 25 hours out of 2a on an eight days a week for 13 months of the year. just to prove you are up to it. superhuman efforts expected of people, weight above and beyond legitimate expectations. and you therefore... you have young doctors, and they are in their 20s, often just kids are asked to do things they are not capable of doing at that point. and obviously there is then a dangerous things going wrong. and of course you cannotjust conjure up a new doc. it takes a few yea rs. conjure up a new doc. it takes a few years. it does take a few years. the daily mail reveal cut—price ambulance crews since 1999 calls. --
11:38 pm
seemed on treble nine calls. this appears to be a similar sort of genesis to the previous story in the guardian where of necessity, you haven't got enough staff, people are slightly underqualified to be there and it hugely important roles, it says here we have the technicians look like paramedics in terms of the uniform that they are not quite the same, they have less training, fewer skills, five of the ten ambulance trust in england show they would dispatch these technicians to almost 300,000 calls. without paramedics last year, including 155,000 of the most serious radicals were patient‘s live were deemed to be in imminent danger. these are skills, butjust slightly less skilled. but we know the care that you get in the first few minutes after having something
11:39 pm
like a heart attack and really make the difference between a full recovery or not. or even surviving. this feeds into ambulance waiting times, and we have heard about ambulances queueing up outside a&e departments could they cannot get in because the response times, the pressures, it is the same thing and i want to say the work that paramedics and the health services do is amazing and i think the criticism isn't on them and obviously they are trying their best. it's a difficult situation. they are being asked to do this without the necessary qualifications, i think that is very worrying. no government could ever spend enough money on the nhs are what people expect it to deliver. but people also have an expectation that the service will be optimum. and not some optimum. therein lies the significant issue. the i, rift with dublin puts brexit deal in danger. very different expectations on each side about at what point the
11:40 pm
irish border issue will be resolved. as it relates to the trade agreement that britain wants. actually, the ha rd that britain wants. actually, the hard border soft border issue has been rumbling on for months actually but it is probably the most important issue that hasn't really been addressed properly by our government and actually ireland are fiow government and actually ireland are now stepping up, they are upping the ante on the issue, firstly because they have their own sort of political issues at home and a possible general election looming but also because there has been a deadline text to the middle of december to the first stage to be sorted out and the irish border question is part of the first stage it is contingent on that, and what ireland is asking for is a sort of assurance that they will not be a ha rd assurance that they will not be a hard border which would equate to disaster to the peace process without moving onto the next, they will veto any steps for a hard border before they, talks can move forward. so theresa may and david davis are in a difficult situation
11:41 pm
of how they move the talks forward and brexit is just of how they move the talks forward and brexit isjust stuck in the mud. liam fox saying it has to happen the other way around, first bought out the trade deal and then we will decide what the border needs to be. the problem we have here is because of this desperate wish on behalf and i think everybody, even those do not support brexit, for it to be a success , support brexit, for it to be a success, they are trying to expedite things through without them being seen things through without them being seen properly in place. " from liam fox in the telegraph is we don't wa nt fox in the telegraph is we don't want there to be a hard border. but the uk is going to be leaving the customs union and the single market. well, if you do that, there is probably going to be a hard border. u nless probably going to be a hard border. unless you have it in the irish sea and then that is of concern to the unions. and you know, they are still keeping this government in place at the moment, in particular you know we have the schisms between tory party over brexit, between the ken
11:42 pm
klark quinn or whatever, but it have to be that big and there is a minority legislation to put the administration down, there is all sorts of things that are going on and we are in a ridiculously narrow timeframe for this to be sorted out, we are looking at leaving the eu effectively in march 2019 we are talking about deadlines being this time next year. that isn't very long. we have wasted six months after the trigger of article 50 without getting anywhere. let's look at the ft, saudi crown prince delivers pledged of ridding the world of islamist terrorism. it is a busy man at the moment! having got rid of all of the corrupt people in saudi arabia... or asking them to pay a few quick to make the charges go away. and put them in a nice hotel while they are at it, which is lovely, but had been someone who was the crown prince has decided people on islington are some. so he's
11:43 pm
basically said we will take on the shia because we are sony and there are essentially old schisms between the two wings of islam being played out on a geopolitical basis. mohammed bin salman. the saudis do with the iranians because they are sheer, that by the qatari survey as it -- sheer, that by the qatari survey as it —— accused of bankrolling islamic state they were grabbed the sony states which is iraq and syria, yemen and saudi arabia, and prince salman says we see its defeat in many countries, we are tracking down terrorism, we will pursue it until it is completely gone from the surface of the earth. it is rather apocalyptic language. but other politicians from other countries have said similar. if you push it down it pops up somewhere else. and of course it would be wonderful if we could get rid of that and as it says is the story, this is in the context of the absolute the horrendous attack on a mosque in
11:44 pm
egypt on friday. the worrying thing is he is taking a much more progressive stance, ' is, at home, but also in verities —— is martin says, it will affect all of the satellite states and i think it must be very worrying, especially if you have donald trump and here's sort of middle east international policies, it is very disconcerting, if saudi arabia will be suddenly more assertive on a regional level. finally, the daily telegraph, armed forces lose out to cyber war. this is traditional personnel not getting the funding that they may be a hoping for. yes, and the shortfall is £2 billion. this is the new twist on an old story. the mod has always complained about not having enough money and the defence secretary has
11:45 pm
always had to ask for more money than the chancellor. it actually, —— but actually the national security adviser is saying that the extra money is needed to tackle cyber terrorism which is true, there is a huge threat from russia and elsewhere. except if we are asking for trips elsewhere. this is the issue being raised and it is a big test, just a few weeks into the tenure of gavin williams, the new defence secretary, more interestingly, michael fallon of erstwhile defence secretary, has already said he will speak up about this. didn't have the opportunity for the previous two years, you may ask, but there you go. there are issues and the funding of the defence forces is a big one. that is it for the papers. please observe the conveyor belt. we got their path the conveyor belt. we got their path the midpoint of the circle. don't forget, you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website.
