in the it will be very warm at first in the south, some rain, most of that in the north, but often it will be dry. not a lot of rain in our forecast for the next ten days. hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment, first the headlines: the un says military leaders in myanmar should be investigated for genocide against the country's rohingya muslims. an estimated 700,000 fled the country to neighbouring bangladesh last year. police in the west midlands say they're searching for 21—year—old janbaz tarin after the fatal stabbing of two women in solihull. the victims have been identified as his former partner raneem 0udeh and and her mother khaola saleem. a study has found that food prices could rise by at least 5% in the coming months because of the unusually cold winter and long dry summer. and a 72—second
11:31 pm
silence has been held at the notting hill carnival to remember the victims of the fire at grenfell tower, which is close to the parade. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are nigel nelson, who's the political editor of the sunday mirror and sunday people, and the political commentator, jo phillips. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the telegraph reports allegations that a labour mp used taxpayers' money in a legal case against his parliamentary assistant. the financial times focuses on reports that the us and mexico have agreed the outlines
11:32 pm
of a new trade deal. the metro leads with the foreign secretary, jeremy hunt's call for answers about what has happened to the rohingya muslims in myanmar. the i says the uk's foreign aid budget will be used to help british businesses invest in africa. the express reports violence against elderly people is on the rise. the guardian leads with new research which suggests air pollution can reduce our intelligence. the times says head teachers have been excluding some badly performing pupils in the run up to their exams to get better places in the league tables. and the sun says a police sergeant is suing the force after live ammunition was accidentally fired at him during a training exercise. let's take a look at some of them in more detail really nice variety of front pages
11:33 pm
there. definitely. nigel, shall we start with the i, which is looking at post—brexit and what could possibly happen between the uk and africa? indeed, this is our international aid budget which is what will be used to smooth britain's trade after brexit. what the i is saying is the uk budget will help private british companies invest in africa, charities aren't very happy about this because that means very happy about this because that m ea ns less very happy about this because that means less money for them. the i is also saying the investment from uk firms will outstrip both the us and france, we'll be second only to china in africa. 0f france, we'll be second only to china in africa. of course, we've got theresa may on a three—day tour of africa tomorrow, when she will make a speech outlining all of this. the idea i think that the aid budget is being used to benefit britain
11:34 pm
will probably go down awfully well in britain. 10, what do you think about this? let's turn to the times because the times are also covering this story, page two of the times. exactly. as nigeljust said, this is a throw ahead to the prime minister's speech tomorrow, so the papers have been given this on embargo so they can print it in the morning's papers. i think it's a really good idea. there's always been difficulty with the general public, you know, particularly during times of austerity, although i think britain is a very charitable country and you can see it in responses to a humanitarian disaster is time and time again. but when people see millions and millions and millions of powers disappearing and not much coming back for it, i think this is quite a good way to focus —— pounds. i think it also changes the balance. it's not about us saying
11:35 pm
you poor people, we can give you this... it's your david cameron idea, the way he presented foreign aid. it was and it wasn't. this is a more mature grown—up approach to it, trade, not aid. it's about recognising that africa is a properly developing countries in the true sense of it, developing as a might of its own economically. i think this is about building local capacity, about working in partnership and making sure it works for local people because for two of them, charitable funding has gone into charitable organisations who know how to tick the boxes —— for too often. because somebody, some well—meaning person, has been sitting there and say what they need is tractors and you have tractors going somewhere where they haven't got any fuel. i think this is good. it's the usual suspects. she's travelling to nigeria, kenya and
11:36 pm
south africa. i wonder how zimbabwe will be viewing this, they were really hoping they would get money, an injection of money. anybody who's actually missing out is not going to be very happy about this. and a former colony as well, zambia. why just the three countries? that is an argument andl just the three countries? that is an argument and i think it's doing the big three, if you like. but on the other hand, i think it is sending out quite a clear message, which is, yes, we're completely preoccupied to the point of suffocating ourselves with brexit, but actually here's the prime minister going out there on a business trip with business people as well and this is notjust about post—brexit trade, it's about actually how we change the relationships with other countries and continents. 0k, we're going to stay with the times and it is mr macron. may's brexit plan, the front page of the times, may's brexit plan would unravel the eu, says mr macron. no
11:37 pm
surprise? what's interesting is theresa may interrupted her holiday to rush over to france to interrupt macron's holiday, and the idea was to selby chequers deal that she's obviously to do, and what this is broadly saying is macron doesn't buy it -- broadly saying is macron doesn't buy it —— cell the. broadly saying is macron doesn't buy it —— cellthe. asjo broadly saying is macron doesn't buy it —— cell the. asjo pointed out earlier, it isn't actually saying no to chequers, but saying he's not terribly keen on it —— sell the. if we we re terribly keen on it —— sell the. if we were getting some kind of benefit asa we were getting some kind of benefit as a third country, that would not work. interestingly, jacob rees—mogg is also quoted in this particular piece... go on, and saying something nice? more about macron than about may. obviously he's quite pleased with this. he's been trying to kilbey chequers deal, along with 62 other tory brexiteer mps, he's
11:38 pm
saying we don't want us half in, half out of europe —— kilbey. we wa nt half out of europe —— kilbey. we want a canada style free trade deal, let's start negotiating that. —— kill the. he is saying this is... but it is only macron and macron... and barnier. yes, but macron is slightly isolated as well because according to the times report here, the unity of the leaders is that macron will actually want some more federal europe, which is the one thing that has driven us into this referendum. merkel is weakened in germany. so any thought that there's going to be a... don't look so sceptical! i am going to be a... don't look so sceptical! iam i boring you? going to be a... don't look so sceptical! lam i boring you?” going to be a... don't look so sceptical! i am i boring you? iwas just thinking that if macron and merkel are going to fight it out, we mightjust come merkel are going to fight it out, we might just come through the merkel are going to fight it out, we mightjust come through the middle, you never know! i'm sure theresa may is thinking, thank goodness i'm in cape town. was jacob rees-mogg going
11:39 pm
to put forward an alternative to the chequers plan? die alternative is called no deal! staying with the times: —— the alternative. getting rid of the weak once to make sure they look good. how about that for a future for our children? -- week i's. anyone who has been part of these causes them, we've had exam results, the new term the begins in a week, this is a shocking investigation by the times —— the school system. if you take away all the expel disruptive or problematic pupils, you will often exclude badly performing pupils —— or expel. then good schools will go up the leagues. we know it's meant to be the very, very last resort to exclude kids
11:40 pm
from school. that's when it is going to be disruptive and damaging to other pupils. putting my own experience into this, when you first enter the schooling system, you are looking at those tables. as you go through it, you start to look at how the schools build up the resilience the schools build up the resilience the children need. other things. i wonder if they're not playing a particularly good long game. wonder if they're not playing a particularly good long gamem wonder if they're not playing a particularly good long game. if this is true, this is an absolute disgrace. they're talking about 9000 kids who might be involved in this. to actually remove children to boost results, that is illegal, they shouldn't be doing this, known as off rolling according to the times, and if this is proved, action needs to be taken against the heads and the schools. you're right, do pa rents the schools. you're right, do parents look at the leagues? at the beginning you might, but at the end it's about the quality of the teaching. as parents we are
11:41 pm
learning. it's the pastoral care. you get a feeling about the school. turning to the guardian, pollution is affecting our intelligence says the paper. and quite seriously. this isa the paper. and quite seriously. this is a chinese study. what it is saying is there are drops in scores for language, arithmetic, and the impact is the average of losing an entire year of education. air pollution in china is a very serious matter, but wherever it is, if you have studies like this happening, the more you hear of it, the more the more you hear of it, the more the whole environmental issue is taken seriously, i take it more seriously. i was an environment sceptic. much less so, you see it around you that things are happening, big hot summers and climate change. very quickly, jo,
11:42 pm
how much is it costing our children, they do mention it? about a year's worth of education and the longer you're exposed to dirty air, the greater the damage. zooming onto the daily mirror, a story we have been covering. we are going to be paying more because of the weather, we have no choice! not surprising, we've had a very cold and harsh winter and then this incredible drought, so not surprisingly it has hit crops in the field, so... and also for livestock, where there hasn't been grass for them to eat, they have had to have hay, that's inflating the cost for the farmers to keep the animals fed. that means we will be hit when we go to the supermarket in the pocket. people will moan about it but personally i think it all makes us recognise where our food comes from and a bit like the pollution story, it means we have to take a bit more notice of what's going on and
11:43 pm
perhaps change our eating habits and the more sensible about how we eat. said she who has been making pickles and chutney all week! me too! hopefully not, we are so topped up on ourvitamin d hopefully not, we are so topped up on our vitamin d we will be happy. we can live on metals or something! let's finish with the ft, nigel, big money in football and brexit —— nettles. the international footballers who make up 70% of the premier league, the helpful currency trading firm has said, right, what we will do is we will help you out. when sterling falls after brexit, which is inevitable, hedge your money in other currencies and you pay us i%, to present, 3% and we make sure you don't suffer a drop in it. that's broadly how it works. —— 196, 296, 396. if it. that's broadly how it works. —— i%, 2%, 3%. if you put your money where you know you're not going to
11:44 pm
lose out, it's a fair bet. asked me a more mortals don't want to be reading this! i think we are sticking with the surely way, diamonds for us! —— us mere mortals. that's in the financial times and it mentions stories like manchester united... not having enough euros. not having enough euros because the players have been requesting to be paid in euros rather than sterling. who can blame them? i don't mind, i will take it as it comes! jo and nigel, it has been wonderful as ever. thank you so much for your time. 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. a big thank you to my guests this evening, nigel nelson and jo phillips and goodbye. lots of programmes on the iplayer. a
