9:32 am
the weekend, maybe four, going for the big things. and we are part of that. you cannot think, wouldn't it be nice if it was already done? frustration makes no sense. i'm frustrated about a few things but that was long ago. now we have the chance to play against brighten up. —— brighton. and there's still one spot in the relegation zone to be confirmed today too. swansea look likely to end their six years spell in the top flight. they need to beat already relegated stoke and hope for a southampton defeat to champions manchester city, with a ten goal swing too. southampton boss mark hughes is convinced his team can do it, but admits they might get distracted by goals from elsewhere. would we be adversely affected if certain news started to filter through? i'm not sure. we're all human. maybe so. if it was a situation that was running out of control. we are in a position to get the job done ourselves. we just need a good, solid, professional performance.
9:33 am
after 22 years in charge at arsenal, it will be arsene wenger‘s last game as manager of the club, as they face huddersfield. arsenal have to settle for a sixth placed finish — his lowest at manager. what was the secret to his success? at 33 years of age i was responsible for a top team in france. i'm 68 today and never stopped. so, there isa today and never stopped. so, there is a long learning process of controlling who you already are, controlling who you already are, control the animal that is inside you and that helps me a lot. i went through some fantastic periods in my life, and as well through some more difficult periods. and the fact that i managed to keep control of my emotions and my reactions helped me a lot to do myjob. now, after i
9:34 am
finish here, i can reconnect a little bit and be a bit more who i am really. away from the premier league, we're into play—offs in the football league, as teams battle it out for those final promotion spots. looking to get back into the premier league, aston villa take a slim advantage in their semi—final with middlesbrough. milejedinak scored the only goal of the first leg at the riverside, to give them a lead going into tuesday's second leg. in the league one play—off semi—final first leg between scunthorpe and rotherham, cameron mcgeehan scrambled home a late equaliser for scu nthorpe as they salvaged a 2—2 draw. in league two, coventry scored a controversial last minute penalty to snatch a draw in their first leg against notts county. lincoln drew 0—0 with exeter. tranmere rovers have been promoted to the football league again after a dramatic play off at wembley. despite having a man sent off in the first minute, tranmere won 2—1 to earn promotion. in scotland, ross county have been relegated from the premiership after a draw at stjohnstone.
9:35 am
they needed a partick thistle defeat to keep alive any hope of survival, but partick beat dundee i—0, thanks to this kris doolan goal. partick now face livingstone of the championship in a two—legged play off. the winner of which will be playing premiership football next season. chelsea ladies took a giant step towards clinching the women's super league title by beating sunderland 2—i. this goalfrom eni aluko doubled the lead for chelsea after fran kirby opened the scoring. chelsea need just one point from their two remaining matches to be crowned champions. now, she was attacked by a knifeman in her own home 18 months ago — but petra kvitova has won second title in two weeks. she beat kiki bertens of the netherlands in a match lasting almost three hours, and is the first woman to win the madrid open three times. lewis hamilton is on pole position for today's spanish grand prix. he will be alongside team—mate valtteri bottas at the front of the grid.
9:36 am
hamilton, who leads the drivers‘ championship by four points, gained his 74th pole position of his career, extending his own record. hamilton's closest rival in the championship, ferrari's sebastian vettel, is in third postion for the start of the race. —— a great crowd. a lot of british fans, spanish fans, even supporting the brits. i appreciate everyone. very close in qualifying but very happy. leinster are the champions of europe for a record—equalling fourth time. the irish side held off racing of france 15—12 in a nailbiting final in bilbao. racing coming up short with the final kick of the game. so, a huge night for leinster, and a great season for irish rugby after the national team won the six nations earlier this year. a ben barba hat—trick inspired st helens into the quarter—finals of the challenge cup. the man of steel favourite saved his best try until last, beating five castleford tigers defenders
9:37 am
to round off the scoring, and put the super league leaders into the last eight. britain's simon yates has maintained his lead in the giro d'italia. ecuador‘s richard carapaz won stage eight, with yates finishing safely in the bunch to keep his 16 second lead over defending champion tom dumoulin. chris froome was also in that group and is ninth overall. the american webb simpson continues to dominate the players championship in florida. he's 19 under par. england's ian poulter was going well until a double bogey at the 18th meant he dropped two shots to eight under. simpson now has a seven shot lead over new zealand's danny lee, who is himself two clear of world number one dustin johnson. that's all the sport for now. more from me in the next hour. now
9:38 am
time for the papers. hello and welcome to our sunday morning paper review. with real papers! unusualfor me. with me are sian griffiths, education editor of the sunday times, and the political commentator, james millar. good morning. let's have a look at the front pages. the observer leads with students from the university of kent campaigning for a vote on the final brexit deal — they claim one million fellow students have joined the cause. i'm looking and it's not there. i was promised it would all go smoothly this morning! will be do it the old way? have got the right one? —— have we got the right one? where is it? i can't even see it. this is
9:39 am
not right. it is in the wrong order. let's start again. the observer leads with students from the university of kent campaigning for a vote on the final brexit deal — they claim one million fellow students have joined the cause. i'm looking and it's not there. what's next? the mail on sunday. it is going to take a while. i'm so sorry. here we go. the mail on sunday reports on the family of meghan markle, prince harry's soon to be wife, claiming her father thomas staged pictures with the papparazi. astonishing cctv footage shows imposing perfect pictures. i'm going to charge them over time for this! the sunday telegraph says at least a dozen members of theresa may's cabinet are lining up to block her plans for a new "customs partnership" with the european union.
9:40 am
it shouldn't be this funny, should it? the sunday times shows results from their annual so—called rich list, and says almost all the 1,000 richest people are now entrepreneurs who built their own fortunes. as opposed to inherited wealth. the sunday express, i can't even show it to you. do you have one? that will do. thank you very much. it is a professional outfit, this. the sunday express says robots which can listen, learn and react to people, are being introduced in care homes to help look after residents and prevent loneliness. quite a lot of different stories. some of which we will actually talk about now. my papers are in totally the wrong order. we are going to
9:41 am
have a quick discussion aboutjames chester —— dame tessa jowell. she has died at the age of 70. she was diagnosed with brain cancer a year ago. james, you knew her. she was yourmp? ago. james, you knew her. she was your mp? she was. i met a few times professionally. —— i met her. when i worked for a scottish newspaper, she a lwa ys worked for a scottish newspaper, she always talked about her scottish background. she loved talking about walking in scotland and this sort of stuff. she was just very nice. you can hear that in the tributes you are hearing this morning. you come across some mps who are only in it for themselves and who are frankly horrible. not many, but there are some. and some who are quite nice but not really effective. tessa was really nice and very effective. she brought the olympics here. she give you time. shejust brought the olympics here. she give you time. she just seemed very person. i suppose the work she did
9:42 am
on sure start, early years education, was something you covered a lot? . absolutely. that was very important. she said up this network of centres were poorer families could go and get help with their children, with any problems they had. the whole aim was to bridge that gap we see so much in schools, the social mobility gap where children from poorer families often come in with less advanced skills, and the aim of these children's centres was to help the families develop their children so they could compete on a level playing field. the thing that really sticks in my mind about tessa is the thing that everybody is tweeting about. this extraordinary last campaign that she ran so extraordinary last campaign that she ran so bravely when she was so ill with cancer. the campaign further access to clinical trials. for
9:43 am
people with brain cancer. working for others even when she was suffering. thank you. let's look at the front pages. we have picked a selection of stories. the sunday telegraph. a dozen ministers desert theresa may on customs. there they are! isn't it great when it works? well done carolyn for persevering. she is going mad in my year. this is the customer ‘s partnership idea. the idea would be that britain would collect tariffs for goods that would enter up collect tariffs for goods that would enterup in collect tariffs for goods that would enter up in the european union. the eu doesn't like it? that's right. the hard brexiteers in theresa may's cabinet don't like it either. they have an alternative which james has described this morning is a magic robots doing it instead! teams like almost every weekend there is another story, another division in
9:44 am
the cabinet about some other aspect of brexit. this one is in the sunday telegraph. there are reported dozen members of the cabinet are lining up to block theresa may's plans for a new customer 's partnership. they wa nt new customer 's partnership. they want a new alternative which involves technology. there is a letter also in this paper signed by activists, which is warning theresa may she has to get it right on brexit, she cannot carry on forging, otherwise the tory party will not be trusted for a generation. the rows go on. i do find the politics poisonous, actually. it looks like there is talk of another leadership challenge. it is the brexit war cabinet on tuesday. it is all boiling over again. this is never—ending. these war cabinets never—ending. these war cabinets never seem never—ending. these war cabinets never seem to never—ending. these war cabinets never seem to come never—ending. these war cabinets never seem to come to a decision. that is the amazing thing. we are where we are less than a year from leaving the eu and the goblin
9:45 am
doesn't soon to know what it once. the cabinet are divided. i2 doesn't soon to know what it once. the cabinet are divided. 12 out of 28 are against this plan. that is not a majority. there is a suggestion a few others may go against it. if you have got the cabinet from blocking the prime minister and a foreign secretary who says that this plan is crazy anyway... this is not normal. this isa anyway... this is not normal. this is a weird way of governing the country. every week we get stories like this. it is becoming normalised. what happened before the referendum? it must have been so dull! exactly. one of my complaint about this story is it focuses on the soap opera. it is the who is four, who is against? actually, it doesn't really explain what the customs partnership is.|j doesn't really explain what the customs partnership is. i think i just did that! you did because you are from the bbc and you get good explainers on the bbc! it doesn't explainers on the bbc! it doesn't
9:46 am
explain what maximum facilitation is and the fact that the eu doesn't like either. the letter from the tories is completely and utterly mad. it starts with, "our country is not divided..." which is not true. and it says recognition tell —— technology will sort out the irish border. that is what you need. vehicle recognition technology is the main problem with the irish border. let's not spent the whole review talking about this. in the sunday times, were theresa may has got an article, i do agree with james... we are going to come to that. let's stick with the sunday telegraph. burst into song is the main picture story with this stage invader interrupting nagress sadjady in the eurovision. she managed to carry on. “—
9:47 am
in the eurovision. she managed to carry on. —— nagress sadjady. i confess, i missed it. a friend of mine had the temerity to get married on eurovision day. what were they thinking! i have seen the clip. it is all over the internet. i have heard the song. i did think it was rubbish. and even though this guy did this thing to her, still nobody voted for her. i think i was probably right. i interviewed her a few weeks ago. she was so delightful, it didn't matter what the song was like. i thought she behaved brilliantly on the stage. the protest grabbed her microphone and within ten seconds she was back singing, belting it out. refusing the chance to do it again. what a great shame. let me find the sunday times. trust me, says a politician. why do they say that? trust me, i won't let you down. what is theresa may going to do then? not all
9:48 am
politicians are baddies. you can trust some. unfortunately, theresa may is just talking a load of old nonsense, frankly. doesn't mean to say we trust her but we are not clear what she wants to do will stop she writes in the sunday times without really saying anything. we will take back control of our social policy and our tech policy. what does this mean? it isjust policy and our tech policy. what does this mean? it is just a policy and our tech policy. what does this mean? it isjust a lot policy and our tech policy. what does this mean? it is just a lot of words. it comes across as a bit desperate. you don't understand what iam doing, desperate. you don't understand what i am doing, but trust me, it will be all right in the end. how can she give genuine reassuring 20 doesn't know what the deal is going to be? that is the problem. that is what is so that is the problem. that is what is so worrying. the word trust was in the letter from the activists. trust is big in her thing. the letter from the activists. trust is big in herthing. i the letter from the activists. trust is big in her thing. i don't blindly trust people that everything is going to be all right. i want to see what these schemes are. i would like
9:49 am
a pilot to make sure it works before 2020. when we are out there on our own. i want to know the detail. we will not be out there on our own, willie? we will have new trade deals. yes, we must have a global britain that makes the most of the opportunity to create jobs and partners across the world, old and new. can i have a bit more flesh on the bone? maybe she has a plan up mislead? she can't revered because the brexiteers will jump mislead? she can't revered because the brexiteers willjump on her. they are the ones she has got to satisfy? that is the problem. trust me, i will deal with divisions in my party. she is still in power, despite what everyone says. you're yes but it seems a bit desperate. desperate times. the let's do a bit more brexit. the observer. a million stu d e nts more brexit. the observer. a million studentsjoin calls for a more brexit. the observer. a million students join calls for a vote on brexit deal. students in this
9:50 am
picture from the university of kent. they want the opportunity to vote on the deal when we finally get it. they do. i think young people in particular are very much voted to remain. if they voted. absolutely. i think they fear, or this story says they fear, that leaving the eu would have a disastrous impact on their future prospects. that generation of millennials, many of them, part of the university degrees i spend abroad. they study in europe, sometimes china. i think they have a much more global outlook. they do see that they may well be working abroad in the future. they don't like this idea. this story is about up like this idea. this story is about up to like this idea. this story is about uptoa like this idea. this story is about up to a million students are going to campaign for this referendum on
9:51 am
any final brexit deal. it is a slightly complicated story because 60 universities and colleges, they have got together, they will get all of the students to write to their mps saying, we want this. it is student union politics as well. it's slightly surprising it has made the front page of the observer. hagley road their chances? well, they are going to write to mps. —— how do you their chances? that's good. you don't want protest in the streets. the interesting thing is this group called for a future sake, ffs, the fellow who leads them, he is one to watch, i think. he is fellow who leads them, he is one to watch, ithink. he is very fellow who leads them, he is one to watch, i think. he is very good, fellow who leads them, he is one to watch, ithink. he is very good, i think. he was at cambridge. very smart. let's look at the rich list. most of these people have made their
9:52 am
own money instead of inherited it. that seems to be the headline? absolutely. it is an interesting story. there is always some new things that come out of the rich list every year. the trend seems to be that almost all the 1000 richest people in our list are entrepreneurs, who built their own income. this idea of inherited wealth, the landed gentry, is being pushed aside. there is one guy in particular, jim ratcliffe, the first british born tycoon to top the list, he didn't start a business until he was in his 40s. he grew up in a council house. he is behind a chemical giant. i think it is really interesting. a lot of other things going on. more women than ever before. why are you pulling a face? this is a story written by a man, i would just point that out, who says there are a record iii! women on the
9:53 am
rich list out of 1000 people. i think that is a0%. —— rich list out of 1000 people. i think that is 40%. --14%. i rich list out of 1000 people. i think that is a0%. --14%. i think women make up think that is a0%. --14%. i think women make up more think that is a0%. --14%. i think women make up more than 14%. so i don't think this number is anything special at all. i don't think it is that impressive, frankly. yes, it is a thing to mention. we must try harder. the way this story is written, it's very much a self—made people. why can't you be on this list? why can't you be like these people? apparently these are britain's wealth creators and they are not giving any money to the labour party animal. i thought britain's gregus wealth creators we re britain's gregus wealth creators were people who pay taxes. —— greatest. jim ratcliffe was an ordinary working day until he said up ordinary working day until he said up his company. there is a sea change happening in britain. in
9:54 am
universities students are being encouraged to start universities. there are hubs that give the students money to start their own businesses. it doesn't look like this entrepreneurial spirit —— it does look like this entrepreneurial spirit is very much the thing. quick comment on the royal family? yes, basically meghan markle is saying she is an ordinary person. she is a hugger, in contrast to the royals who do not hog. i don't think they are weird and immoral. people generally speaking didn't hog so much, did they? no, they didn't. you do notice when they are out and about they are very touchy—feely. and why not? good grief, they are about to get married! finally, the robots in care homes are on the sunday express. i don't know whether to feel this is a terrible
9:55 am
indictment. what do you think, james? we were talking at the brexit stuff and the border. they would be these robots that will be invented and they will do it. they are not invented yet. it is this idea that a iand magic invented yet. it is this idea that a i and magic robots will do also took things will stop on the face of it obviously there is a social care crisis coming down the road. if robots can help, that would be a good thing. there is no substitute for proper conversation it is there? we know from research, you can have a phone call with an elderly person, it is not the same. it does not deliver the same benefit as seen in face—to—face, having a cuppa. companionship and interaction. who would have thought it? that's it for this morning. a roller—coaster. don't forget, you can see the front pages online. it is therefore you seven days a week. if you could hear the racket in my year. thank you, sian and james.
9:56 am
