it, we still have that believe it, we still have that influence coming at us from the continent so yes, you get some more and possibilities and i think later in the day, it will be popping off again across the south—eastern quarter, maybe the odd rogue one further north but as i say, essentially a lot of dry weather to be had. what's going on. keep up—to—date with us on the news channel. hello. this is bbc news with martine croxall. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines: victory for the yes campaign in the republic of ireland as voters reject strict abortion laws in a landmark referendum. today is a historic day for ireland. a quiet revolution has taken place and today is a great act of democracy. real madrid claim the champions league title with a 3—1 win over liverpool. and the leaders of north and south korea agree to meet more regularly following surprise talks aimed at resurrecting a possible summit with the us. hello and welcome to our look ahead
11:31 pm
to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the journalist and broadcaster penny smith, and the women's editor at the telegraph, claire cohen. welcome to you both. let's have a look at the front pages: the mail on sunday leads on the news that the prominent brexiteerjacob rees mogg has bought a five million pound house which is closer to parliament than number ten. —— brexiteerjacob rees—mogg has bought a five million pound house which is closer to parliament than number ten. the paper suggests he could be eying a leadership bid. the sunday telegraph says a "new generation" of national parks are being planned by the environment secretary michael gove. the sunday express has an exclusive interview with the general responsible for planning the military ceremony from last week's royal wedding. the sunday times reports on the prospect of an open revolt on the prime minister by senior tory women over a vote on abortion rights in northern ireland.
11:32 pm
and the observer leads on the vote to end ireland's abortion ban, saying it marks the country's transformation from a bastion of religious conservatism to one of europe's most tolerant democracies. it is reported on the observer young and old city and country, ireland unite the end of abortion banned, this country has gone through an absolute transformation in the last few years, hasn't it? it is staggering that two thirds backed the repeal of these restrictions. what you heard there was about was that it was, the historic thing was there were many worries that the liberal city dwellers were going to impose their views on the rural dwellers who can —— who are considered to be conservative, it was everyone, rural, city, conservative, left—wing, of right wing, it was across everybody. it
11:33 pm
was a staggering statistic. i was broadcasting this morning and i was shocked very quickly the no campaign said ok, we have lost. it was quick. and the opinion polls said it would go down to the wire and be too close to call. actually it is a landslide victory, 64%, it is a resounding yes from the people which is great. let's look at the statistics. the irish times on the online pages, i think should show what the turnout was, 64%, which is the highest if not the highest for a referendum and as you say two thirds of people, all but one of the a0 constituencies, donegal, voting in favour. it is really kind of resounding cry from ireland, taking the fate of women into its own hands, actually. this
11:34 pm
isa into its own hands, actually. this is a nation we often think is run by the church or by the state but it is actually people coming forward, flying home from la and tokyo, you know, we saw this #home to vote last night, people travelling thousands of miles to have their say. it will be difficult for those obviously, those who voted no still want to change or to adapt the laws, i'm sure, but it is going to be quite difficult when you have this much of a landslide. but if that is your view, it is very hard for you to adapt in any way. if that is the fervently held belief you have. nevertheless, there we are, it is incredible and the leo varadkar made a very measured speech. let's look at brexit now, it isn't far away, is it? may blocking bid to stem an
11:35 pm
acute shortage of fruit pickers. while we have fruit coming off? we have been told we have a looming food crisis and the prime minister is turning a blind eye to it, frick is turning a blind eye to it, frick is going up it, we have an acute shortage of labour in britain's fields. penny will also know this is a top storyline on the arch. but it a lwa ys a top storyline on the arch. but it always has its finger on the pulse. there is no want to pick. we are told michael gove and amber rudd had put forward this scheme. they are not going to turn out and pick strawberries are they? no. get their hands dirty? anybody, when you go pick your own strawberries did anyone get any of them in the pot or do they go straight in your mouth? you should have to weigh yourself when you go in and buy yourself when you go out. i often sit in my car afterwards and feel queasy. they are
11:36 pm
sometimes quite painful if you pick a few too many of the top. we are getting off the point. we are, slightly. shall we move onto the other brexit story? is that the biggest threat to car firms since red robbo, derek robertson. another name from the past, british leyland, and we remember that being driven by strikes and red robbo, yes, he was actually universally known as red robbo, by almost all of the papers. why is brexit the threat then? the problem of course is that this is nothing new, the car industry in particular of course, everything comes, it is — a car is not made just here, part come in from all over and if we then have... not a free route that it is going to become placated. if we lose the
11:37 pm
customs union then we lose control of the industry which has been booming since... yes, it has, since the 70s when it was described as being on its last knees. we have been told it will be sorted? john neale the point that at least in the industry could sort of fixes itself whereas now it is in the hands of the politicians. no wonder they are worried because a lot of parts go backwards and forwards. all different bits. they are not all made here, even a component is made in one place. to the sunday telegraph, or to the sunday telegraph, or to the sunday telegraph even, go plans new wave of national parks. —— michael gove. claire? i couldn't read the font it was so claire? i couldn't read the font it was so small. my eyesight! nothing to do with age! he is talking about
11:38 pm
existing national parks, extending them and creating new ones. he has been terribly good at putting out these incredibly positive stories, hasn't he? plastic straws and cotton buds. it tends to be seen as a political bathwater at times but he has harvested and is trading up is really good pr, this will be a green brexit we are told that he is extending national parks, creating new ones and generally making sure we are safeguarding the green spaces. they are particularly calling for chilterns in south devon areas, outstanding national beauty, tojoin the list areas, outstanding national beauty, to join the list of ten national parks because then they get special protected status and they are talking about the chilton is being threatened by development on all sides so this would then sort it all out. that is the tension though, isn't it? at a time we are all told we have to build hundreds of thousands more houses, if you then protect certain parts of the countryside from development, it creates an even bigger problem. but
11:39 pm
then we have to look at how we build houses and where we build them. and whether we do a bit more with brownfield sites first. the race so much land being locked up that nobody is prepared, inland banks as well. yes, they are sitting, some people are sitting on, waiting for their prices to go up. again, even further. what happened in the arch is. everything happens in the arch is. everything happens in the arch is. i watch the radio. this is rarely exciting. page seven of the express. i had to do a doubletake of this story, tell us, what is the warning? haven't we all, i am sure we have all had, particularly a mum, stopping the car and saying all of you, out! and you all trot out and then he pretends to driveaway. the threat looms. it is looming at the
11:40 pm
moment. this is parents to be told to use them motorway hard shoulder is asa to use them motorway hard shoulder is as a naughty step could highway in the upper four because highway england has seen a child walking along the ma in bristol because they we re along the ma in bristol because they were on a timeout because of bad behaviour to ring the journey, anotherfamily behaviour to ring the journey, another family were found cooking beside a motorway, a driver left his lorry in the slow lane to go for a walk, i mean, we are laughing but 100 people are killed or injured on the hard shoulder every year and of course highways, they are there to an emergency. i felt quite reassured by this that the parents were not attending the child a screen to distract them from being naughty. i mean, they went a bit far in actually kick him out of the car. and, hard shoulder. at a mean we have all been driven to distraction, i have stopped the car but not on the motorway. that is the point. it
11:41 pm
is kind of the point but i do love the warning from simonjones of highways england, but stopped except in an emergency. you think that would go without saying, wouldn't you? but sometimes do to look at washing instructions and think yes, even i know that. where are we going? the t levels. the biggest school revolution in 70 years exclusive. what are these qualifications? this is a t level, equivalent to three a—levels and it isa equivalent to three a—levels and it is a huge revolution because what they are saying is let's try and get children ready for work rather than ready for university and ready for more higher learning perhaps. saying that we need skills, skilled people, skilled people who can work in jobs in the future which are, i don't even understand. i suggest we go back to having polytechnics and
11:42 pm
technical colleges and eventually. full circle. it is interesting. it is where the future of our industry is, technology, engineering, you know, things we are desperately crying out to have people go into. interestingly it didn't mention gender in this but it did get me thinking about there was a survey a couple of years ago saying only 1% of parents in the country considered engineering a viable career option to their daughter. sol engineering a viable career option to their daughter. so i wonder what the take on these t levels will be and whether parents will feel like it is not for their child. if i had my time now i think engineering would be great, i'd love to be able to point to some thing, that was an engineer will stop he made big things like pylons and things and i loved going to the factory. the smell still takes me back. there is something exciting about seeing massive grade, a small diagram turning into some huge great item,
11:43 pm
it is incredibly exciting, and i love the idea you could say i made that. i built that. anything that makes men or that. i built that. anything that makes men 0!’ women that. i built that. anything that makes men or women think that is a viable career for them. look at those huge big boring things that the channel tunnel, crossrail, and all of those other, there is incredible boult i could see you in charge of one of those. yeah, do you think? iam charge of one of those. yeah, do you think? i am turning left here. i don't care. it looks nice over there. i wonder if subjects like this you need to explain to people where are they going to take you. because it is abstract, learning things at school, they are trying to make things like maths more applicable to the real world so you can understand why you are learning these things. with all of those lessons that you learn at school i do think that we should be tailoring them a bit more. we need learning full earnings sake but we also,
11:44 pm
drama and arts, but we also need people to make things. speaking of tailoring and technical, did you make such unique? i could have done but no. i remember last time you we re but no. i remember last time you were here he had run up a little number. i have just were here he had run up a little number. i havejust come back were here he had run up a little number. i have just come back from india and! number. i have just come back from india and i have boughtan number. i have just come back from india and i have bought an enormous load of fabric and patterns so look out. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget, you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you, seven days a week at bbc.co.uk? papers. and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, penny and claire. goodbye. —— thank you, penny and claire. goodbye. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's
