hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are rachel cunliffe, comment and features editor at city am, and the writer & broadcaster, lynn faulds wood. leicester see you both. look at us without cool colours, the three graces. alla rdyce without cool colours, the three graces. allardyce in our cool the financial times, which leads with the guilty plea

by former national security advisor to donald trump paul flynn, for misleading the fbi about his connections to russia. the i features the warning from the brexit secretary david davis that he would resign if the deputy prime minister damian green was forced to quit over claims pornography was found on his house of commons computer. the daily mail says the conservatives are at war with the police over the accusations, which are they say are the product of a long running feud. the telegraph highlights the danger to the president following the deal made by paul flynn to cooperate with fbi investigators examining russian interference in the us elections last year. the sun carries a large picture of prince harry's fiance the guardian's top story is also the guilty plea by paul flynn, noting the president was uncharacteristically quiet on the matter. the sun carries a large picture of prince harry's fiance meghan markle on her first public engagement with the prince since they announced their engagement, calling her a mega star. the daily express claims new research suggests if you are overweight you are more likely to develop dementia,

those in their 50s with a high body mass index most at risk. we're going to start, then, with those revelations that admission by michael flynn, former security adviser to donald trump that he lied to the fbi. so it says on the guardian. not only did he lied, he's 110w guardian. not only did he lied, he's now what we call in this country as queen' evidence or anti—trump evidence. and he'sjoining the fbi former director—general robert miller who is investigating russian meddling and has already arrested... meddling in the election last year. the problem was for trump is that he's likely to or senior figures and

the one they mention is come's son—in—law the one they mention is come's son—in—lanared kusher. the one they mention is come's son-in-lanared kusher. who the one they mention is come's son-in-law jared kusher. who was already been spoken and they say they will have him in for another chat. jared kusher and interesting person because he has numerous contacts with some various dubious international character. what is interesting about flynn coming forward is he has not led guilty to one count of lying to the fbi which is minor compared to what he could be charged with. they discuss sanctions with the russian ambassador. i'm not an expert in us law but there are a number of other troubles that he could get into. he's pled guilty to one count of the maximum sentences of five years, that's relatively mild. there was the assumption here that he had

stuck a deal, he is cooperating, who is he going to name next? how high up is he going to name next? how high up the chain does it go? at the moment the only suggestion is jarrod tesla. however, there are various rumours that could affect from —— jared kushner. buti rumours that could affect from —— jared kushner. but i suspect is so clever at tweeting his way out of trouble, he changes the subject. he's been uncharacteristically silent. his to this afternoon, there was hardly anything for a while and nothing really about what's happening. maybe he's getting advice on when he feels is an safe territory dan hill comment. the white house is saying this implicates no one. —— then he will comment. they say it's implicating 0bama which is 1984 doublespeak. the point that michael flynn worked in the 0bama impersonation, calling him a former 0bama official. for misconduct.

chaotic, disruptive and not following procedures. they point out he was only serving for 25 days in trump's administration. there was good duport reporting is not because trump hounded him out, trump was saying to the end that he was a good guy and it was the mainstream media. they're not guys. trump was lauding him as in the greatest thing since sliced three star general is one they appointed him. very also saw flynn saying in the run—up to the election, flynn was shouting lock up hillary as well. we think this guy could be made a meal of in the witness stand because he seems to be a bit flaky for a three star general. meanwhile in russia they are saying look, the anti—russian

spin continues. you spotted, who is at the top of the guardian, rachel? can you look on luck is up here. hillary clinton in conversation with mary beard who i am absolutely a huge fan of. and hillary clinton. there she is not laughing at the current situation? i think given flynn was leading calls to lock her up, she must be finding this bitterly hilarious. it's an interesting, i wonder if it's coincidental that the guardian have put it where they have above the masthead tonight. i've dropped it on the floor, we better move on. we we re the floor, we better move on. we were ready anyway. the daily mail. let's ta ke were ready anyway. the daily mail. let's take our time. tories at war with the police. this is over a former detective speaking to the

media about... no, that was neil lewis. this is where the feud comes in. nine years ago. these images we re in. nine years ago. these images were found on a computer in damian green's offers. as has now been leaked. he says it's nothing to do with me, i didn't download them, i didn't feud on house of commons property and that the police officers query that. the police officers query that. the police officer in question is has said that he knows or he's examined the evidence and it's clear he was damian green looking at the time periods in which computer it was used on. mingling with e-mails in this as well. there are so many angles on this story. he denies it as well. this evidence was seized another of years ago at the assumption was that had been deleted and it was all perfectly legal content, if unsavoury, and that the

police had promised to raise it and one of these police officers thought this was the wrong decision and therefore held onto it and is leaking it now. the male course this a vendetta and said that the police are trying to oust damian green and it has become war. i'm torn on this. i believe please need to follow procedure and that if there was nothing illegal there, that's where it should end. at the same time for the house of commons has no hr department and in any other field of work, as someone department and in any other field of work, as someone was department and in any other field of work, as someone was doing that, he said he wasn't, if someone was doing 30 get fired instantly. parliament seems to be the only place that doesn't happen. david davis says prepared to consider the resignation. if damian green gets pushed out of his job over this. prepared to consider it.|j pushed out of his job over this. prepared to consider it. i wonder if davis has had enough of brexit. you can't blame him. that'sjust
