11:31 pm
this is bbc news. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment. first, the headlines: a doctor who was struck off over the death of a six—year—old boy has won her appeal to practise medicine again. dr hadiza bawa—garba was convicted of manslaughter by gross negligence in 2015 over the death ofjack adcock, who died of sepsis. two men are found guilty at the old bailey of the murder of 25 year old model harry uzoka, who died in a fight over a girlfriend in january. jeremy corbyn has hit back at criticism of him by israel's prime minister. benjamin netanyahu accused mr corbyn of laying a wreath on the grave of one of those behind the munich olympics massacre. after a year of rail misery, train travel is now one of the uk's least trusted consumer industries. millions of commuters are set to face a rise in railfares of more than 3% from january. ticketmaster is closing two
11:32 pm
of its secondary ticketing websites which allow people to offload unwanted tickets. the move is to combat touts who hike up prices. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are kate proctor, political correspondent of evening standard and dia chakravarty, brexit editor of the telegraph. thank you so much for being with us once again. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the top story in the i is the anticipated sharp increase in rail fares. the paper says ticket prices are rising twice as fast as wages. the mirror has a story about scammers posing as investors via cold—calls and stealing
11:33 pm
more than £46 million. the sun's top story is also about a scam. a lottery winner who married a man who reportedly stole £13,000 from tesco. the telegraph leads withjeremy corbyn‘s response to israeli prime minister benjamin neta nyahu's criticism of his presence at a wreath—laying ceremony. the daily mail also has that attack by mr netanyahu's on mr corbyn on its front page. mr corbyn‘s wreath—laying controversy appears again on the metro as its lead story. the top line in the guardian is the impact of the turkish lira's plunge on the global currency markets. and finally, the times‘ lead is a study claiming five million brits have at least triple the normal risk of suffering a heart attack despite lacking the warning symptoms. let's discuss the papers in a little
11:34 pm
bit more detail. let's start off then with that story about the who had been struck off, told that she can practice medicine again, despite having been convicted of manslaughter in the wake of this six—year—old bully‘s death in 2011. —— boy's. chief as being reinstated and is allowed to be practising again, seen asa allowed to be practising again, seen as a controversial decision, not least by the family of little boy who died. it is a heartbreaking story. have an interview with the mother in the daily express and it is about how they feel like they have had no justice is about how they feel like they have had nojustice and if a doctor can contribute to the death of a child and they are still able to work again. i think this will be
11:35 pm
really emotionalfor work again. i think this will be really emotional for lots of parents andi really emotional for lots of parents and i think it will, in many ways, have an impact on the trust between families and patients and the medical profession and i think that is absolutely everything that doctors want to avoid in this case. that is the wider context, thousands of doctors were quite alarmed in this case. they thought, if they make a mistake under huge pressure ina make a mistake under huge pressure in a hospital, they could be prosecuted and that would have huge implications. this is an important story. it is very important. there isa story. it is very important. there is a quote here from the lawyer saying that no one is go to be celebrating this, anything about this case. if any outcome was going to be, the child is always there to begin with, it is about how we can make sure that these incidents don't
11:36 pm
happen in the future, or how we can limit the numberof happen in the future, or how we can limit the number of incidents like this happening. for that, limit the number of incidents like this happening. forthat, it seems like the judges felt that it was important that a doctor who had committed an honest mistake and where there was a catalogue of mistakes carried out by other colleagues in the hospital as well, as was the case here, it was important that a doctor is able to say this is exactly what went wrong, just this can be avoided in the future without risk of being banned or struck off the register. originally, i would say it, it is so difficult, it is easy to sit here and make all of these comments, but everybody involved in this case would have thought, given it a lot of thought, but the original verdict of thought, but the original verdict ofjust one year 's suspension, it still seems to be perhaps not quite enough. because after all, still seems to be perhaps not quite
11:37 pm
enough. because afterall, it still seems to be perhaps not quite enough. because after all, it was a child's life involved and the child did die. the pants would want to know that there were some repercussion and one year wasn't enough and then she was completely struck off and that has been overturned. you mentioned the reaction of the families, on the inside pages of the express and the mother in particular, who we had an interview with earlier on, said she was disgusted by this decision and devastated and the doctor was responsible for more than 20 mistakes. so not really buying the slain that this was a systemic problem. —— this line in. she was saying that these were mistakes the doctor made. —— this line. ifi if i can read one line here, there was another child placed under a do not resuscitating water and somehow it got confused and that ended up
11:38 pm
being on the little boy jack. it got confused and that ended up being on the little boyjack. so i think the mistakes would raise and the doctor herself as discussed them, i think for any mother it is just not going to be good at all. —— has. there was the wider context, a p pa re ntly has. there was the wider context, apparently she was doing the job of four doctors, responsible for 70 patients and had just come back from maternity leave, i think this will bea maternity leave, i think this will be a test case going forward. you fear that that is a situation that happens in hospitals, staff are under enormous pressure, often there is not enough people there to deal with a number of patients. this could happen at almost any time. which is why it is important that the mistakes that are committed are not repeated. i think that is what weighed up in the end it, that it is
11:39 pm
important that doctors can come forward and say this is a honest mistake. doctors funded her case, her legal fees, which mistake. doctors funded her case, her legalfees, which are how important it is to their profession. story about turkey. this is a war of words between the united states and turkey. it began with the arrest in turkey. it began with the arrest in turkey of an american preacher and it has escalated, donald trump has imposed tariffs on turkey, their currency has now plummeted and the guardian headline is that there are fears of a global prices as turkey fights to halt their sliding currencies. value of the lira has plummeted and this story will will have come out of nowhere, but it is a sign of america's tariffs, their steel and aluminium tariffs that they have placed a different countries and it seems that turkey is one of those that is really struggling. there are other
11:40 pm
countries as well that are also seeing a slight tumble in their currency in the last 2a hours. turkey is the one where the arguments about what has happened to their economy are being played out ona their economy are being played out on a really huge, global scale. you have the prime minister of turkey saying that he feels like he has been stabbed in the back by donald trump. he will be awake soon and we'll have to see what he says back to that. the president has always -- already said that this is huge america trying to bring turkey to its knees. in a way, does that play into president are the one's national importance? this is a company —— country that is being bullied? it is interesting because this plays into procomm supporters in america. this is the president saying i am going to stand up for a
11:41 pm
citizen of hours who is stuck in a prison, this creature that we are talking about, for supporting the kurdish movement, which the us is also supporting fighters in their fighters against isis in this area, they have an interest as well. it is fascinating to see, interesting that you said it would probably be lending support to president erdogan in turkey but also possibly president trump in the us to say this is how we are going to behave. if you hurt our citizens, we are going to stand up. this preacher is an evangelical richer and that is pa rt an evangelical richer and that is part of donald trump's support base. the times' reporting on it is every cloud has a silver lining, if you wa nt cloud has a silver lining, if you want a cheap holiday, go to turkey! it is interesting how they have chosen to cover this. you will get more lira than ever before, why not go on holiday? some airliners have
11:42 pm
doubled the amount of seats this summer, if you want a cheap, last—minute deal, turkey is the place to go. this is what we set about greece and i went to greece string that time and it wasn't a happy place at all! i do want to go somewhere where they are having an economic crisis, it doesn't sit well with me. another political repercussion that seems to be happening in turkey for its own citizens is that the reports that the turkish interior ministry is taking legal action against 346 social media accounts which they are singing as having posted something provocative against this lira drop. there are going to be domestic political repercussions in a country which is already seen to be increasingly authoritarian against its own citizens. interesting to see how that plays out. the daily mail,
11:43 pm
they have made the running on this whole story about jeremy they have made the running on this whole story aboutjeremy corbyn and what exactly he did in tunisia four yea rs what exactly he did in tunisia four years ago. kate can you try to explain this? in 2014, jeremy corbyn attended a ceremony to honour palestinian terrorists, but among those were some of those who were involved in the munich olympic massacre, this was in tunisia four yea rs massacre, this was in tunisia four years ago. he was at this event which he describes as part of a very important piece negotiation talk is, but it comes down to the fact as to whether he laid a wreath 40 and is ofan whether he laid a wreath 40 and is of an israeli attack, or whether he laid a wreath to honour people who we re laid a wreath to honour people who were involved in the munich terror attacks. it has emerged that he did
11:44 pm
lay their wreath, he has admitted today that he did lay the wreath, but says that he was present but doesn't think he was involved. that has satisfied absolutely no one and it is really unclear as to what he was doing at that event and itjust perpetuates this ongoing battle within the labour party as to whether you can support palestinian right, albany have to cut that off completely. despite all that, criticism from the israeli prime minister, that is quite unusual for a foreign promise to directly criticised a party leader here. in the end, will it cost the labour party vote is? that is what remains to be seen. i have to be honest, i have been surprised with the amount of support
11:45 pm
he has been getting from his base. over this issue. i have read lots of posts saying that it says that a wreath was laid in his own article, injeremy corbyn's wreath was laid in his own article, in jeremy corbyn's article in the morning star, which he wrote after he came back from syria in 2014, so his supporters point out that a wreath was laid, which does not mean he laid it himself, but we have photographs showing him holding onto the wreath, so people, his supporters that least, have made their minds on mrjeremy corbyn and mr netanyahu joining this debate is actually probably only going to give mr corbyn credibility with his own supporters, who feel these people might have been freedom fighters, rather than terrorists. his supporters will say this has been whipped up by papers like the daily
11:46 pm
mail. except that the first we heard of it was in the morning star which jeremy corbyn wrote about himself after he came back from syria and i wasjust going to after he came back from syria and i was just going to add that after he came back from syria and i wasjust going to add that it is important to add that it is possible to support the palestinian cause without laying down wreaths on the graves of people who tortured and murdered israel the athletes at this horrible olympic massacre. that is the only thing i was going to add.|j think for some on the left today who said corbyn has kept complicated company over the years, which is not something to shy away from, it is something to shy away from, it is something to shy away from, it is something to be celebrated, but i find this issue so messy and ijust think it isjust find this issue so messy and ijust think it is just more continued struggle and infighting for the labour party. and that is featuring in the telegraph as well. with a picture of him holding the wreath and it is whether he held it and
11:47 pm
laid it down for a certain individual that is at the middle of this. it is still not clear as to what happened with the wreath laying, to be fair to corbyn. that has said in his own because he has said in his own article that the wreaths were laid and then today he said, "i was not involved". how involved. . . ? and then today he said, "i was not involved". how involved...? how much more involved in a wreath laying ceremony? i don't know. let's move away from that, because there are lots of other stories, one in the i because rail fares are going lots of other stories, one in the i because railfares are going up again and people in this country are fed up with the state of the railways. absolutely sick of it. the timetables that didn't work, delayed services and rail fares according to the i rising twice as fast as wages. the hike was 3.6% this year, going
11:48 pm
into next year it will be 3.5% and for some people that's going to lead toa for some people that's going to lead to a £150 increase on their travel, andi to a £150 increase on their travel, and i feel so sorry for commuters, it was wheezing in the north of england so many cancelled services, —— we have seen in the north of england so many cancelled services, no train drivers available, it happened in the world cup as well, train drivers went there. the service seems to be getting worse when the prices are going up —— the train drivers weren't fair. they say they are bringing it up to improve they are bringing it up to improve the railways. that would be an argument. i think their problem is it has been a summer of discontent for rail travellers. if you remember, there was a time when every day we were getting stories about how horrible the service offered to consumers were. in that
11:49 pm
situation, to raise the rail fares seems to add fuel to it. the department for transport has a good point, which is about £4 billion in taxpayer money goes into it. so for taxpayers, who don't necessarily use the train service, to pay for it, to pay more to this would be unfair and unjust, so that's why the prices are going up, but then the rail users will ask what they are getting for this price hike? are we even getting a service we are paying for? ok, the last story is the daily mirror, cold calling scandal, according to the mirror, £46 million great pension robbery, thousands hit as crooks steal savings pots. this is a bit of a story that i wasn't really expecting to be in front of the mirror today but you have these criminal groups mirror today but you have these criminalgroups ringing mirror today but you have these criminal groups ringing up, cold calling people, asking whether they would like to change pension investments, and plenty of people
11:50 pm
have fallen for it, and the estimation is £46 million has been taken from pension pots by crooks in the last four years. i haven't received one of these cold calls to talk about my pension. i imagine it wouldn't be worth their time. for people with a great deal of savings and to be conned over something over the phone, it seems like such a terrible thing to happen to these people. i am sure this story now it is in the mirror that we will hear more from people who have had this happen to them. it seems extraordinary that according to the daily mirror report there are about eight scandals every second and that is 250 million a year, so it is a lot, this is an industry targeting mostly pensioners who might feel, i don't know, who might be more vulnerable and other groups, targeted quite, in a sinister way,
11:51 pm
really. how can we stop it? there are plans for the treasury to ban to protect savers. this was supposed to come injune. protect savers. this was supposed to come in june. now protect savers. this was supposed to come injune. now it is not expected to come in before autumn. hopefully that will make a difference. it is a very worrying story. i remember at the time and the liberalisation pension pots, there were fears of this, and now we see this kind of thing can happen. thank you very much indeed for the comprehensive view of tomorrow's newspapers. that is it for the papers tonight. don't forget, you can get the rest of the papers online. and, if you did miss the programme in the evening, it you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. goodbye from us. hello, i'm tulsen tollett, this is sport today,
