step further and i think ultimately it's generally a premier league top six team that wins it but it opens the door a little bit more this season. we have had a nice run and two really good games against southampton, difficult but interesting against accrington, and how interesting against accrington, and now today where we have shown ourselves in the second half. it sets us up quite nicely for the league, clarity and the fact the cups league, clarity and the fact the cups are league, clarity and the fact the cups are done and have had a decent run, we have to keep reproducing good form in the league to try and push for promotion. this goal from murray wallace was enough for millwall to beat fellow south london club wimbledon 1—0 and secure a spot in the last eight. it means the 2004 finalists are now one win away from a semifinal spot at wembley. i thought today my boys showed great character. the converse they showed at times, we could be better with the ball, but it is all about
9:31 am
getting through to the next round and for us to be getting into the quarterfinal, the fourth time in 15 yea rs quarterfinal, the fourth time in 15 years for our club, it is a great achievement for us. rangers have missed out on the chance to narrow the gap on rivals celtic at the top of the scottish premiership. steven gerrard's team had to settle for a goalless draw at home to stjohnstone and are now five points behind in second. that means celtic could go eight points clear at the top with a win at kilmarnock today. third—placed aberdeen were also held at home by bottom side st mirren. there were wins for hibs and dundee. britain's laura muir set a new national record over the mile at the birmingham indoor athletics. she won in a 4.18.75, taking five seconds off kirsty wade's mark, which had stood since 1988. the time was also the fastest in the world this year and the third quickest in history. it proves she's in great form ahead of next month 5 european indoor championships in glasgow, where she'll defend both her 1500 and 3000 metre titles.
9:32 am
i knew i was in great shape and for me it was about winning the race but i wanted to run fast and to get an opportunity to try and go for another record. i couldn't miss it. i get so chuffed to be able to do it. in rugby union's premiership, saracens are top after a convincing bonus—point win over leicester tigers. they scored four tries on their way to a 33—10 win, which keeps their hopes of winning an unprecedented treble still alive. saracens and exeter are now level at the top on points after 13 games of the season — sarries having the better points difference. in rugby league, the wigan warriors could win a record fifth world club challenge, if they beat the sydney roosters later today. the warriors are the most successful team in the history of the competition and last won the trophy in 2017. though the last time these sides met in the final, it was the roosters who triumphed, back in 2014. it is not like any other final, it
9:33 am
isa it is not like any other final, it is a massive opportunity to get to play in a game like this, to get to represent your club and your country to some extent, it is a huge opportunity, so the boys really buy into it and for our point of view it isa into it and for our point of view it is a real tough task and game but it is a real tough task and game but it is something we are really looking forward to challenging ourselves with. the melbourne renegades have won the big bash league for the first time as city rivals melbourne stars collapsed at the mcg. having been set 146 to win, the stars looked set for a comfortable victory as they reached 93 without loss. but they then lost seven wickets forjust 19 runs as the renegades ran out with a 13—run win. neil robertson will face stuart bingham in the welsh 0pen final this afternoon. bingham broughtjoe 0'connor‘s dramatic run in the competition to an end. the world number 103 had beaten
9:34 am
ding junhui and john higgins on route to the semifinal, but it was a step too far as he fell to a 6—2 defeat. the final begins at 1pm this afternoon and you can watch via the bbc sport website and the red button. other major clubs are being encouraged to follow the example of non—league side altrincham, who donned a rainbow—coloured kit yesterday in support of football's fight against homophobia. the national league north side's usual red and white stripes were replaced with the colours of the lgbt pride flag for their one—all draw against bradford park avenue. they're now auctioning them off for charity as well. we are just trying to raise awareness for homophobia in football. hopefully we can cause a ripple effect where people take note of what we are doing and it has been a success today. hopefully a bit like the kick it out campaign, it can have a positive outcome.
9:35 am
that's all the sport for now. now on bbc news, here's the papers. hello and welcome to our sunday morning paper review. with me are lainy malkani — author & journalist — and dave wooding — political editor of the sun on sunday. lets take a look at the front pages. the sunday times claims that britain's richest man, and prominent brexiteer — sirjim ratcliffe — is working on a tax exile plan which could save him billions of pounds. the us is warning european governments to take back jihadists captured in syria — or risk a surge of terror attacks. that's in the sunday telegraph. according to the observer,
9:36 am
the home office is selling the services of its immigration officials to private companies, as part of the hostile environment strategy. the mail on sunday reports on labour's deepening anti—semitism row. and the sunday express says brexiteers are furious over a plan by the eu to send food aid to feed britain's poor, in the event of a no—deal brexit. just a flavour of the front pages. let's run through them in a little more detail. lainy, let's start with the sunday telegraph. this warning from president trump about is jihadis potentially being unleashed on the west. yes, the us officials are saying there are something like 800 jihadis that need to go back to europe basically, and that european countries better get their act
9:37 am
together, in particular highlighted britain at the moment and with them wanting to return to britain, what will happen to these people that wa nt to will happen to these people that want to return back to the uk what will happen to them. i know sajid javid shot from the hip if you like with this statement in shamima begum's case, he will do everything he can for not to come back to the country... a lot of people would agree with that. she is british. the justice secretary said legally let's look at the law rather than an emotional response to this, that legally she is allowed to come to this country because she is british. where else will she go? us officials are marking this up as well and saying where are they going to go? they need to go somewhere otherwise if they are footloose and fancy free
9:38 am
roaming around, it poses a danger. dive, are you worried we are going to have a lot of these islamic state jihadis coming back to europe and britain? —— micro dive. jihadis coming back to europe and britain? -- micro dive. ithink you made a good point about sajid javid to commit in tune is the phrase with ordinary people out there who don't wa nt ordinary people out there who don't want this 19—year—old coming back. she left and she was 15, she is talked about being unfazed about seeing murder victims heads in bins and the question is the debate, can she be decontaminated? can she —— can we remove the poison from her mind or is she beyond help? there is a case in one of the papers this morning about a girl, a 19—year—old who came back here and they tried to prosecute her, if they do come back
9:39 am
they should be prosecuted, they were unable to get the evidence because everything happened in syria. this woman hasn't been named and now she is allowed free in britain. so there is allowed free in britain. so there isa is allowed free in britain. so there is a public service risk. the other thing is the government in a bit of meltdown over brexit and other issues, there doesn't seem to be a policy. the justice secretary saying one thing we have to bring her back because she is a british citizen and the other chap, sajid javid the home secretary saying we won't let her back and so the government is in disarray. 0ne back and so the government is in disarray. one point it would make is while it is nice, she wants to come back to britain, what about ken begley and alan, they would have liked to come back to britain. there is an emotional response to this, and echoing the public‘s view, but there is a pragmatic response to this which is that she is a british citizen. the legal reality is you cannot be stateless, you have to...
9:40 am
sajid javid's statement might reflect certain parts of the british public, but what taste has done is it has put the government at loggerheads in their response. the sunday express have got to this story inside, the home office must come clean on returning jihadis, mps will demand to know the fate of every jihadis will demand to know the fate of everyjihadis which has been prosecuted returning from syria in parliament tomorrow after the home office refused to release details of national security grounds. what do you make of that? i think it is something like a0 out of... you make of that? i think it is something like 40 out of... out of aoo, something like 40 out of... out of 400, 10%. really? did they have to time to consider every single person that has come back? do we all need to know because once it becomes and the public domain it is discussed in parliament and we all know this. i think it is worrying, isn't it
9:41 am
commit that if you consider a00 potential jihadis commit that if you consider a00 potentialjihadis are here, and have not been prosecuted, i think what actually commit we need to know this information? i understand the home secretary needs to know this but do we? many people say the government priority is to keep people safe and you don't keep people who are potential terrorist. and there are thousands being looked at on the security service lists, some being monitored day and night at a cost of thousands and millions of pounds to taxpayers, others being discreetly watched now and again and funds monitored and so forth, but this figure here will buy into the hands of those who don't want this young one returning to britain, many have not been prosecuted. those who say bring her back and prosecutor, it is not as easy as one would think. let's move away from the story to
9:42 am
the sunday times, they have got quite an eye—catching lead story, lainy, the richest man in britain quits the uk to save billions, sir jim ratcliffe, who was knighted about a year ago for services to business investment. he is a prominent brexiteer and he is effectively going into tax exile. two expects to this story, one, i wonder whether he wished he wasn't so wonder whether he wished he wasn't so vocal about exiting the european union now, because if he had just gone quietly no one would have noticed, but there is also the issue about pricewaterhousecoopers and the way in which they are helping him to avoid paying tax and it is the conscience of these accountants that are helping him to do that, it is a slap in the face for people that supported brexit, actually if you area supported brexit, actually if you are a fat cat you can leave the country and it is ok. but it is also
9:43 am
the way in which it is managed. because if you avoid paying tax it trickles down to hospitals, schools, that are serious. do you think people who voted brexit will feel betrayed by this kind of behaviour? we we re betrayed by this kind of behaviour? we were just checking his move to monaco, that is not strictly in the eu so he is not moving to the eu either. he is quite entitled to support or not support brexit and go where he wants but i think the main point is he is a rich man who was not paying his taxes at a time we are criticising coffee chains and social media giants were not paying their taxes, it applies for all of us their taxes, it applies for all of us because it is important we pay what we should be paying. also an element of making decisions about oui’ element of making decisions about our country that you are not going to live in. maybe he should have stayed under the radar and not said anything and just gone. in the sunday times there is a story about meghan markle and universities, supposedly taking aim at male, pale,
9:44 am
style universities. i like to think i'm not style but perhapsjust on the turn. i speak out for the male, pale and stale, and oppressed minority in this country. i think she has a point. we need to have more role models from the ethnic groups and it is quite right that some of those people are celebrated in this country for the things they have helped to create in our society. she is saying, meghan is saying, she is using her royal fame to some positive effect saying, opening up the conversation about updating the way people think. the other extreme of that is the campaign to get rid of the statue of cecil rhodes for example, an old cannoli of the lists. -- colonialists. it has opened up a debate in which how we revere
9:45 am
people, especially in university or educational establishments. i don't see there is a massive issue here, because it enriches our society as a culture and community to be able to discuss these things. i will take issue with one thing because i don't think you are in the minority, which is what meghan is saying, it is not the minority, it is the majority. there is nothing wrong with mixing things upa there is nothing wrong with mixing things up a bit and having people from all different communities. it was a commonwealth university that she was referring to, and was shocked at the list and numbers of people that are leading educational and university establishments. i think it's fair. let's shake it up a bit. she obviously has a lot of opinions. do you think we will get more of this kind of thing? they have to tread carefully not to be too political but i think it is
9:46 am
right to use the admiration they have from a sizeable chunk of society to use it, another point about diversity here. i think it is right we should have more women and ethnic groups in society but i think another thing we don't talk allowed out —— a lot about the working classes of all colours and backgrounds. often the better of the privately educated people get that big leg up in society and we must do more to make sure that the lower classes as they see them are given a fair crack. let's move on to the sun on sunday. it has got an interesting article about the labour party. corbyn has made it the party of anti—semitism, tell about that?l piece by michael dugger, whojoined the labour party at the age of 15 who was tipped for future high
9:47 am
office, worked for gordon brown as a senior adviser, he was in the shadow cabinet and became an the mp for doncaster, under ed miliband. he resigned as an mp at the last election in 2017. he is now saying he will tear up his labour party membership card with a heavy heart because he said the labour party although it has been the greatest force for good for working people in british history from the creation of the nhs to the national minimum wage, it is not the party he joined and it's no longer exists. he says it is because of anti—semitism, which has grown underjeremy corbyn's leadership. let's go to the express. brexit. you were saying about on that brexit may be not dominating the front pages as much of that has in recent weeks. dominating the front pages as much of that has in recent weekslj dominating the front pages as much of that has in recent weeks. i am not sure, what more is there to report on brexit? this is the shocking headline for me. five more
9:48 am
sundaes until brexit? 40 days and 40 nights. it is on the front page of the sunday express. their story is the sunday express. their story is the eu is planning to side food aid just feed the poor in the event of an audio brexit. we already have food banks. iwonder whether this an audio brexit. we already have food banks. i wonder whether this is quite provocative, a headline saying they will send food aid. if you go into the article on page four it talks about humanitarian aid, which has throwbacks to some famine happening in various parts of the world. this is the uk. i don't think we will be having, we already have a crisis. is this true do you think? i find it hard to believe that the european union are playing hardball and refusing to take a back stop a
9:49 am
little bit and then lavish us with refit. perhaps it is another project fair. this letter from the prime minister to all her mps saying get behind my plan, will it make it any kind of difference is mikee behind my plan, will it make it any kind of difference is mike a little throw of the dice. a big vote next week, after next weekend, and that could be high noon. she has written to all hermps could be high noon. she has written to all her mps saying if you don't get behind the deal it will either be no deal or no brexit. she has been saying that for a little while but she says we have to put aside out but she says we have to put aside our differences and try and think of the national interest. is there any sign that tory mps will do that? the erg, jacob rees—moggs will they think they'd better and say we have to get behind the prime minister?m their whatsapp group there is quite a lot of criticism of the prime minister. yesterday steve becker was saying pretty derogatory things
9:50 am
about her —— biker. the attitudes hardening. i don't know if we can call it at the moment. nobody knows what the outcome is going to be. i feel it is a game of chess that nobody wins at the end of the day. we have just seen the way in which society is polarised, talking about this earlier, it doesn't seem to be able to have a conversation and have able to have a conversation and have a conversation able to have a conversation and have a conversation on a able to have a conversation and have a conversation on a middle ground anymore. you are either for a conversation on a middle ground anymore. you are eitherfor or against or in and out and it is pretty shocking. the sun on sunday have also got a very interesting interview with glenn hoddle and whether you are interested in football or not this is an amazing story, the fact he collapsed in a tv studio rather like the one we are sitting in. no plans. it effectively saysis sitting in. no plans. it effectively says is heart stopped for 60 seconds and it was a sound engineer who saved him by breaking seven of his ribs in order to resuscitate him.
9:51 am
just amazing. incredible. isuppose that sense of you have died and come back to life again must be something where you would probably need quite a lot of counselling to get your head around actually feeling, how do you feel about that, he says he kicked a ball and collapsed. it is as simple as that. for 60 seconds he was out of the game. good luck to him really. what do you think, dive? i think he is a great pundit and a great footballer and this is a miraculous story. it is the first time he spoke fully about it. he describes he was with robbie savage and he thought he was talking about. then he says he banged his head so heavily when he went down he was black and blue when he came round. he said itjust wasn't my time. he
9:52 am
thought afterwards he was literally gone. to your member of the case of fabrice mamba. i think he was on the football pitch and he collapsed. it is remarkable what we can do to bring back people. more of us need to know first aid. are you first aiders? no. i won to know first aid. are you first aiders? no. iwon a to know first aid. are you first aiders? no. i won a trophy when i was in the boy scouts and i haven't done it since so maybe it is time to go back. i just done it since so maybe it is time to go back. ijust now staying alive. that song. he used that rhythm to compress, how do you not know this?! there was an advert on tv. so you compressed to the risen. you do it to the bee gees song. bring people back to life by saying the bee gees.
9:53 am
that is a great thought. let's end with james bond. this is in the mail on sunday. a great day, di, mr bond is the headline. he is not going to die, because he will keep the grey hair in the next movie, we are hearing. yes, and good on him. daniel craig is the latest 007 and he feels that bond should grow old gracefully and have a salt and pepper look rather than be dyeing his hair. do you know what, why not? good for him. it is a good plan because daniel craig, james bond, you cannot live forever, can he? is that shocking for some people that he can't. he is 50, daniel craig, so there is no reason why he... sean
9:54 am
connery had no hair. i think he is a great role model for the mail, pile and stale gentlemen of great britain. you don't think he should be young forever? if he looks old, he is in his 50s, so his face looks old, so he is right. he should go with the flow. his bond girls will a lwa ys with the flow. his bond girls will always be of a certain age. they will never be the equivalent to james bond's age now in his 50s. he will just look james bond's age now in his 50s. he willjust look like... what about a female james bond. are you up for that? female james bond is great but i think we need to get to the first black james bond first. we nearly had one. idris elba was tipped. exactly. let's not write him off
9:55 am
