hello. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines. weather warnings for snow and icy roads remain in place across much of the uk. thousands of homes are without power. several flood warnings have been issued for parts of england, due to high tides and strong winds. motorists and rail passengers have been told to expect continued disruption on roads and railways. three men have been charged with manslaughter and arson over an explosion in leicester which left five people dead and a number of people injured. video assistant referees are set to be used at this year's world cup in russia after football's lawmakers voted to approve the technology. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are journalist yasmin alibhai—brown and penny smith, who is a journalist and broadcaster. nice to have you both here.

many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. at this time of the night, you would hope so, hey? while the beast from the east subsides and the snow melts, the observer takes stock of the financial cost the wintry weather has taken on the country, suggesting it's cost us one billion pounds per day. the sunday times leads on an investigation in to how internet giants may be implicated in the trafficking of vulnerable women. the paper also looks ahead to tomorrow night's oscars with a picture of gary oldman, who has the best actor nod for playing the part of winston churchill. the actor also takes centrestage on the front of the telegraph, alongside the paper's top story which looks at the way bbc presenters‘ salaries are taxed. the top story for the mail is the latest gossip from within theresa may's cabinet. so, no clear consensus on a top story for the sunday papers, but a couple are looking ahead to tomorrow night's oscars ceremony. let's start with the observer,

adding up how much this it freeze has cost us, apparently £1 billion a day as fears mounted gdp growth. things like insurance costs, disruptions, you know. as the snow melts you can see the waiters ravaged many of the main roads. potholes. freeze thaw action. that is the geography speaking. the built—up areas is 5.9%, i checked. how much of britain's land... it is still tiny. best from the east hitting construction, schools, transport, construction... accidents, people have fallen, the emergency department have had immense pressure, due no, i also think about all of those people who

have not been able to heat their homes, who will be, no money cases have gone up, so it is a huge thing. well, that'll comes into costs because if you have no money obviously you cannot work and you cannot be productive but they are saying construction could lose up to £2 billion over the three worst days because of course nobody could do any work. and there may have transport and retail of course also suffering, which you think about the obviously no one was going into shops because it was too cold and most people were told to stay at home. the clever voice in my ear, rock, reliably tells me, i'm not sure where from, please give me a source if you can, gdp is from the office of national statistics. —— rob. thank you, very reliable. one fifth we are losing. it is a lot of money. when you look at that, and i thought the figure was staggering, it is the most costly weather event

since 2010 when we have that freezing week before christmas. that is only eight years ago so it is obviously not that unusual to have... i don't ever remember it being like this. ijust don't ever remember it. really? ijust don't. i remember it. really? ijust don't. i remember the very hot summers of the ‘705 remember the very hot summers of the ‘70s and so on. remember the very hot summers of the '70s and so on. you ignore the cold areas? perhaps i feel the cold '70s and so on. you ignore the cold areas? perhaps i feelthe cold more. ca rs areas? perhaps i feelthe cold more. cars freezing in five or ten minutes, i went out to get something from the local shops and i couldn't open the door, i have never known it like that and i think those poor people on the street! 0! they could not have survived. sunday times. crackdown on councils, they are not building enough houses, the government is liking. to the government's liking. what they are saying is that if he refuses the council to build these homes, you

will be stripped of your right to decide where they are construct did and this is a revolution in planning laws to be unveiled tomorrow, this is an interview with the sunday times, the housing secretary, saying councils will be given higher targets for homes to be built and those who fail will have the planning powers removed. they are planning powers removed. they are planning on building two towns between oxford and... the thing is until how long? until recently the pressure on councils not to spend on infrastructure, you know, the government, on the coalition onwards, they were not allowed to, and now they can do that, and they are so and now they can do that, and they are so cash strapped at the moment, councils. they are being asked to build the houses, are they? just approved them? oh, is that it? yes, yes, they are not funding council houses all of a sudden full top of his private construction firms being encouraged. or that i have another objection! of course you do! this

deregulation bunk this is dangerous because the planning a purpose. yes it does. it is not all about authoritarianism and whatever. i think if we give up on planning permission of course all of us have been through a bit with the council because you cannot get the tree you wa nt to because you cannot get the tree you want to cut down or whatever but they are right and actually, there isa they are right and actually, there is a move now and it links to the one of the other stories we will do, but we can do what we want, we did the regulations. i think it would be a terrible thing. and here is that lourey. it is a bit like we thought this through. hang on, penny, please. i know you are tv presenter but come on! it is my show! the sunday telegraph, to abolish 50 eu rules, please explain. first you have to remember this is sunday telegraph the obviously it is coming from the viewpoint of being pro— brexit. and although it is saying

that both leaders and remainers are saying that after we have an picked ourselves from europe, all of a sudden everything is going to be so much easier —— leavers. we will not have red tape. utterly without cucumbers be allowed to be as curly as they darned well like... and unable to build higgledy—piggledy of things! it will look horrible! oh my god! planning has nothing to do with the eu though. of course not! that was going to be my point! the planning permission is... was going to be my point! the planning permission is. . i was going to be my point! the planning permission is... i will stop interrupting. yes, please! almost all of the local and national oui’ almost all of the local and national our government. this is about taking back control and releasing ourselves from regulations and direct gives... i like the bondage. they are saying at the moment that builders for

example construction council homes and putting, the dictats from europe are telling us what to do, they are not saying he was doing this or anything else, it is all about signing off a new major trade on much—needed infrastructure related to railway systems or else it would be tangled in red tape and covered in red tape. hold on. i sat and listened to all of theresa may's speech yesterday and she was saying a lot of the records realignment will need to be kept if we want to do trade with europe, as we certainly do, but not under the same terms. the regulations which are necessary for that would be part of this 50. no. yes. and there we have steve bannon, and hope we know who steve bannon, and hope we know who steve bailey news, this man who is very... it has got nothing to do with this. he has written in the telegraph said that brussels has been viciously dismissive!” shouldn't say that at...”

been viciously dismissive!” shouldn't say that at... i do think he has much to do with the price of fish but there you go. the telegraph love that, it is on the front page! that we find this out. shadow secretary of state for housing has said that this year policy shows that policies —— they have no plans to fix the housing policy. it is a fault of whitehall not town halls. since 2010 ross lee ping has more than doubles, the number of new homes being built still has not recovered to prerecession levels. well, the independent. the headline. goodness me. so rude tonight. the tories quietly shelved benefit sanctions reform, yellow card plan prevent poorest being unfair, doctor says a positively by rob are pleased to see around his desk some nights. what are the reforms? this is being

going on for a long time. it is like a catch—22, people do need this university credits and other benefits have been caught in this vicious, vicious trap, actually, they have to pass all these tests and then suddenly they fail one bit of them and there are these dreadful stories about somebody in hospital, somebody not being able to attend an interview, and then they are denied their basic living money. and you know, it was neverfiction, i think, we know it is happening. it was meant to be in october 15 ian botham speight introduced the idea of the yellow card, in other words, really to say can ijust raise the yellow card, ithink to say can ijust raise the yellow card, i think i have to say can ijust raise the yellow card, ithink i have been to say can ijust raise the yellow card, i think i have been wrongly given the wrong amount, the wrong decision on this sort of thing, and

he said that there was going to be, and then, they have quietly shelved this reform, the yellow card plan, and... the evaluation proved to be too complex. can you imagine that? how could they possibly mean that? people ‘s lives are dependent on this! it was supposed to be a universal benefit and was meant to sort it out. exactly! it was the president all these disparate elements and sort it out but frank field for example the chairman of the commons work and pensions... he is very good on this. it has highlighted the appalling distress that some people are in anti— talks about one place where somebody was having an operation at the time when he was given this decision and came out, appealed the decision, obviously it was upheld, and by that time he had already been evicted and somebody else was in emergency going

in fora somebody else was in emergency going in for a major surgery and was shouting at everybody please, find work and pensions, i need to get this sorted before i go in and again, serious problem. it is orphaned —— awful and iain duncan smith created this policy and he now says it cannot be evaluated, then actually, he has got to be pulled before some committee to answer questions about what he did! he isn't overseeing it any more, is he? but he created it and is still defending its! moving on to something different, the mail on sunday has a picture of the very lovely susan sunday has a picture of the very lovely susa n co nsta nt sunday has a picture of the very lovely susan constant time on the front page formerly of the susannah and trini. i am now as skinny as trini. yes, well, yasmin, if you would like to... you said is this news? it is a front—page story. is it really? we are encouraged to look on pages 20 and 21 to find out how

she did it. i don't have to know. i probably have some kind of idea. go on. moved a bit more. that is how i did it. it is magic, the only way. so we should have you on the front page! shouldn't we just? in so we should have you on the front page! shouldn't wejust? in my handmade frock? home—made frock was to mark that tape is nice to a final item on the observer, talking about paris fashion week. penny, penny... what she is wearing... this is a concoction by vivienne westwood. what she is wearing... this is a concoction by vivienne westwoodm her husband apparently. it is a marsh to his wife. sorry! -- homage. it is lovely! if i was younger, i would. i think it is great!

it is lovely! if i was younger, i would. ithink it is great! penny would. ithink it is great! penny would make that to you. my immediate thought was you rip up a whole lot of stuff and tack it on and... it is a bit likea of stuff and tack it on and... it is a bit like a curtain. but unlike its! also, you slash up to him around the top and do a bit of cutting and... you make it sound very simple, this is haute couture! it is like a housecoat, you just wrap it around, curtains are very nice. i do like it. the thing i like is the upsidedown yellow legs.” have no idea. growing up in a family of hose re— manufacturers, it reminds me of the model averagely that were used to have in the factory that you could
