pages are already in. the financial times reports on the retailerjohn lewis warning its half year profits would be close to zero. the metro has a picture of german fans consoling each other at the world cup after the defending champions were beaten by south korea in a shock defeat and knocked out of the tournament. the i takes a look at how the government plans to cut the number of people behind bars. the daily telegraph a former aide to the prime minister claims theresa may's cabinet is undermining brexit negotiations. the daily express says tony blair has called for brexit to be postponed. the daily mirror reports on the army being called in to help tackle the saddleworth moor fire. the main story on the front of the times is about chinese railway companies being the frontrunners to operate hs2 trains. the guardian looks ahead to theresa may addressing her eu counterparts at a summit in brussels tomorrow evening. a variety of stories making the front pages, let's see what our guest this make of them. let's start with the daily

telegraph, britain heading for the worst brexit deal and this assessment comes from a fairly surprising quarters. timothy who was chief of staff before it last year's general election is a columnist now for the daily telegraph and he has a thing for the papers tomorrow and saying things are not looking good but he says it is worse than that and unless we cover up, and i say we as in the government, if the government does not toughen up, they will be left with the workers and she may have to have freedom of movement and some are pushing to except that to maintain close economic ties with the eu and if that were to happen i could see it being quite a substantial pull—back.

ido being quite a substantial pull—back. i do not see how people like david davis for boris johnson could i do not see how people like david davis for borisjohnson could stay in the cabinet if freedom of movement was on the table. been out in the country, a lot of people didn't vote for brexit because it would mean to take back control to use that phrase of borders. but we need to brace ourselves for that. use that phrase of borders. but we need to brace ourselves for thatm people are bored of brexit already it will get worse in the next few days because we have this, this pajama party over at checkers were theresa may will talking to her cabinet over brexit. she has a big speech talking to eu leaders and they are all squabbling like ferrets and a sack over her own party so it isjust going to get bloodier and bloodier. a little bit of brexit although the front page of the daily telegraph also has this

extraordinary photo that has come from greater manchester with the fires. we will come to that story in a moment but the main story, theory at blairfor bid to a moment but the main story, theory at blair for bid to wreck brexit. we know he has been trained to orchestrate behind the scenes this major anti—brexit push pulling together a coalition of the unholy ease in trying to push it, i do not think this is going to do his cause any good at all. if you are advising him, you would say keep out of the headlines because you are quite toxic on this subject so it is no surprise that the express has gone for, to attack him on it. it is unwise in the picture looks quite suitable for the story. even though they are two different stories. suitable for the story. even though they are two different storieslj suitable for the story. even though they are two different stories. i do not think that is tony blair. but i'd do think that tony blair's reputation now precedes them. can

people not see beyond the reputation and listen to what he is saying?m you go by social media, no. you mentioned tony blair and it is a pavlovian reaction. it just mentioned tony blair and it is a pavlovian reaction. itjust gets that thrown at him. and... i mean, you know where he is coming from when it comes to stopping brexit but at the very least he wants another referendum on the deal but i don't really see it being a lot of public outcry for that. i have not read the speech but i have read the small column but it does say that he compared new anti—eu political movements to the rise of the not these and other extremists in the 19305 but some people are going to think he is talking also about brexiteers and compare them to the far right in the not cease and the whole thing is so dangerous that... this is the way the express has written it. i have not read the

speech. we will have to see what comes out when the speeches made. let's go to page three of the express , let's go to page three of the express, another extraordinary photo graph here. how it looks, it is extraordinary, this going on, several miles from manchester. you used to see these pictures of massive forest fires in australia we re massive forest fires in australia were the mediterranean countries or so were the mediterranean countries or so but we are not used to seeing a here and the weather mixed with the wins, four miles of forest around there that is now ablaze or was earlier today in pictures and stories of people and it is catching in the throat and evacuated houses andl in the throat and evacuated houses and i am guessing other countries, when you see, they have planes and helicopters that can drop loads of water, but we are not used to it so we don't have the equipment. they

had to call the army and. and in some of them it is quite extraordinary. let's move onto the front page of the eye, the prisoners revolution, what is that about? the prisons minister and justice secretary are both hinted at a liberalization i guess of prisons policy, fewer short sentences and in particular what i think of this, to cut the number of women in prison, with sentences less than a year u nless with sentences less than a year unless it is for a violent offence and then there is no real benefit for society or women themselves to actually be there. i think, having spoken to sources at the minister, there is a lot of over egging of the story here, and i have a source saying they want to look at the ruling out which would further

suggest... i think politically would be very difficult. i think it is a brave thing for the conservative party to do because other parties have been calling for this for ages and particularly female prisoners have a much higher rate of see suicide, mental health and domestic abuse. politically it is brave because normally when you say give people a noncustodial sentences you're accused of being a little eu livered liberal and you're accused of being a little eu live red liberal and soft you're accused of being a little eu livered liberal and soft on criminals. this is brilliant. the labour party who is now less likely to have a go at them on being soft on crime if you know what i mean because if you think about it, the tories can make up how ever the present works. david cameron and how he got vilified for that. there are political corpses in this area.

let's go back to the daily telegraph and a little almost like a news in brief right at the bottom related to the visit of the trump next week and the visit of the trump next week and the first lady's plans have dj vu about them 7 the first lady's plans have dj vu about them? we know the plan put forward to melania trump is that she should go and visit british schools. iremember should go and visit british schools. i remember reporting when michelle obama because all these schoolgirls we re obama because all these schoolgirls were weeping and joy because she was so were weeping and joy because she was so extraordinary in the way that she touched them emotionally. and maybe she will be great at it, who knows? but it seems too similar for comfort, i think. it but it seems too similar for comfort, ithink. it will help but it seems too similar for comfort, i think. it will help to soften the image of the trump white house but the trip will be overshadowed by what donald trump

does upstairs, controversy is never terribly far away so it is a bit of a good cop bad cop thing. terribly far away so it is a bit of a good cop bad cop thingm terribly far away so it is a bit of a good cop bad cop thing. it is also friday the 13th. well spotted. let me take you to the metro for the shock story of the day. a great time, on the front page in the bad page from chance to chomps. well. total media saying don't mention the va are. lots of heinz. are you in a state of shock this afternoon?” va are. lots of heinz. are you in a state of shock this afternoon? i was screaming my head off. state of shock this afternoon? i was screaming my head offlj state of shock this afternoon? i was screaming my head off. i noticed a reaction when i was in parliament and it was on in the office and people were out back everyone was convinced that they would come through in the end and everyone

expected them to get a late goal and it didn't happen. there was a swedish sports journalist at that game and there was a great crowd of mexicans who found a south korean and were giving him the bombs and saying you are mexican now. and they had gotten through. thank you both very much. 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, 7 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, for the moment, to kevin schofield, from politicshome, and the talkradio presenter, daisy mcandrew. and next coming up is the weather. if you like the heat it is good news and we are not expecting things to cool off anytime soon, you do not like the hot weather, the bad news is we are actually not expecting any rainfall for a long time yet and 32

degrees was the highest temperature recorded in northern wales on wednesday. the hottest day of the year so far but not only there, and it was sunny and for a time we had a lot of missed and the morning started off pretty cloudy. that is what we're going to see again through this night and into thursday. clouds will once again drift inland and eastern counties through lincolnshire, as far west as the midlands and south east and from the midlands and south east and from the north and west you are, the clear the skies will be. clear blue skies and it is going to be another hot one in impact on thursday the highest temperatures are expected to cross scotland and northern ireland and zoom into this area a bit more because glasgow could be depended or for highest temperature on thursday. if you squint and see the little blocks here, these are showers potentially developing in the highlands because the air will be so

hot, some local ones with local downpours. other than that a glorious and sunny day across the uk. the high temperature is stuck across this part of the world but to the south of high pressure still a bit of freezer that means the north sea coasts will remain on the poolside at times a little murky with the threat lapping on and off the coastline. temperatures will once again be highest across western and northern areas, about 26 in areas on friday, and perhaps the temperatures are rising a little bit across the south. through the weekend, the warm air is moved as far north as the arctic circle as in the mac it in gold parts of scandinavia. lots of sunshine around and again this temperatures are typically in the high 20s but notice they are starting to creep back down across the northwest of the country and down to 23 for example in belfast and if you do not like heat

and hated in fact, things are going to cool off but it does stay hot in the south. this is bbc news. the headlines at 11pm: the army is called in to help tackle a huge fire across saddleworth moor. as temperatures soar, it now spreads across four miles. people have been told to leave their homes. this is not something that's going to end today by any, sort of, stretch of the imagination. this could go on for days, even weeks. a couple from london win a major legal battle, insisting that the law on civil partnerships discriminates against heterosexual couples. drjane barton, the gp who oversaw the practice of prescribing powerful painkillers at a hospital in hampshire where hundreds of patients died, says she had always done her best for her patients. a rescue boat stranded for nearly a week in the mediterranean, with over 200 migrants on board, has finally been allowed to dock in malta.
