hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are asa bennett, the telegraph's brexit editor, and yasmin alibhai—brown, the author and journalist. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. starting with the daily telegraph, commons speakerjohn bercow must allow donald trump to address parliament this summer or risk damaging britain's special relationship with the united states, according to ministers. the bank holiday weekend is set to be an £11 billlion easter shopping bonanza according to the daily mail, as forecasters expect the hot weather to drive up takings at the tills and boost high street spending. on the front of the financial times, congressional democrats ramp up their investigations for donald trump's conduct and wimbledon set to abandon
10:42 pm
tradition and serve up an online ballot for tickets. the warm weather is also splashed across the sun. it's a bunny boiler as the paper reports on the hottest easter weather in 70 years. the times reports on a cia warning over chinese telecoms giant huawei that wants to supply technology for britain's 56 mobile network, american intelligence suggests the company is funded by chinese state security. and the guardian headlines with a warning that political violenc must not be allowed to take hold in northern ireland again as derry mourns the death of irish journalist lyra mckee.
10:43 pm
those of the front pages, let's start off our chat and will start with the guardian and the warning, will start with that warning against the return to violence and dairy. would you like to kick us off? yes, a part of the fallout in reaction to the tragic death of lyra who was on the tragic death of lyra who was on the scene in dairy near police land rover during the riots very much doing what a journalist should do and be there, following everything thatis and be there, following everything that is going on. she had a long track record of covering these issues in ireland. two points i will quickly make. certainly, some people will be tempted to read a lot of brexit implications into this, i generally would caution against that because we can simply appreciate that it
10:44 pm
because we can simply appreciate thatitis because we can simply appreciate that it is a tragic incident by what was expected to be the new ira. but it does illustrate something, which is that some people may have thought that the good friday agreement is that the good friday agreement is that it's done and dusted, no longer a problem. the project fear of no deal and everything else. and yet, we cannot take it for granted. because we have people rioting and derry, and let alone the brutality we have now seen. 21 years, it took 21 years to establish some kind of workable peace and itjust seems 21 years to establish some kind of workable peace and it just seems to me that it's like a game of snakes and ladders where wherever you look, the ladders we have climbed, suddenly the snake brings us back and it is so unpredictable and though i agree we should not make
10:45 pm
conclusions about brexit, because of all of this method has been going on for years, of course, those who never expect to make accepted the peace deal will always look for the open sore. she connected with the young, she connected with the subject matter. when you look at the generation, there is a generation thatis generation, there is a generation that is like, what's happening in ireland? can ijust asked, does anyone know which, was she particularly targeted? she was amongst the police line. that is what we understand by it. and that is from the police inquiry and if i could make one extra point further thoughts on this, given the age
10:46 pm
point, she would've been in primary school during the good friday agreement. she saw ireland change so much. will you stop making me feel so much. will you stop making me feel so old. stop that. on the front page, that headline is congress seeks full trump report detail. do you think they will get it? no. i think it's going to be like pulling teeth out. they're going to have more than they had a week ago and finally, i am finding this thing very confusing and i know there are a lot of things happening with the decision to produce with he did. but at the same time, he has left a lot of very important material to be followed of very important material to be followe d u p of very important material to be followed up with people in congress. the trouble is, he was not able to do as the trouble is, he was not able to doasa the trouble is, he was not able to do as a slam dunkjudgement because
10:47 pm
he had this legal convention and like it or not, he had to acknowledge it, that you cannot indicta acknowledge it, that you cannot indict a sitting president because it would interrupt his ability to govern and actually, that said, the report, 400 pages of this set people up report, 400 pages of this set people up in cherry picking the ones as they wish. but the ones they really like to gloss over, he basically said that if he was not president, he would be throwing everything at him. and read into this a bit more, there is a point that in this article, donald trump now faces a new legal jeopardy, article, donald trump now faces a new legaljeopardy, third article, donald trump now faces a new legal jeopardy, third paragraph halfway down, it is all to do with protecting official proceedings, courts, grand juries, corruption basically. it is going to see. the numberof times he basically. it is going to see. the number of times he tried to obstruct the investigation. it is amazing that that is the mueller report, he
10:48 pm
basically tried to obstruct but his officials were too good—hearted to listen, they did not follow orders. it was like he was too incompetent to try. and all of the stuff that came up from, i do not understand how this could ever have been in a country where all are equal if the law, if you are equal before the law, if you are equal before the law, it should apply to the president, surely. it would be interesting to have a take on the witnesses they gave the testimony and how they feel that there was a lot of risk for them to speak out. let's turn, meanwhile, to the telegraph donald trump is still on the front page but this time we are talking about honour. in the uk speaker does not think that a certain president has earned it. protest, how many protests do we need? the uk government has to
10:49 pm
respect the office of the presidency, of course the argument 110w presidency, of course the argument now that we are touching on is what honesty we bestow to the president. and using his role as a speaker does not want him coming to his backyard and asa not want him coming to his backyard and as a speaker he can do that.|j have and as a speaker he can do that.” have fallen in love with him. i think a little bit of me is in love with this man because he is so stubborn. it's very awkward, stopping the pm to vote on a deal, stopping the pm to vote on a deal, stopping donald trump. how many demonstrations to have to go on and lam demonstrations to have to go on and i am already thinking, another demonstration because we do not want this man here. ifi could combine both stories, obviously, one the fallacies is been hoping that derry would just put donald trump in jail, thinking that he will personally stop donald trump getting off the plane. it's all about ceremony and do we want them to have a speech and
10:50 pm
address parliament. 0r. .. do we want them to have a speech and address parliament. or... there is i'io address parliament. or... there is no comparison between those two! when the chinese leader came and no one, the repressive politics and i would agree with you, but angela merkel, no. the quality of assessment, let's put it that way. the 75th d day celebration. pencil it in yourdiary. the 75th d day celebration. pencil it in your diary. let's turn to the picture, the beautiful picture of a 29—year—old who was killed last night but the lead story is that thousands of women are being turned away from refugees and safety. because we have now come to this place where it is happening and
10:51 pm
people who have not got the right papers or the right rights to stay are being asked for payment before they can be treated in a did not know the story that the victims of domestic abuse are also now, according to women's aid, a third of 2531 women who needed help after alleged domestic abuse, did not have access to the public fund so they could not get the help that they needed. people are going to die here. it is appalling! absolutely appalling. well done to the independent forgetting the story, because i had no idea that this was going on. i second that and struck by the suggestion that they do not qualify for the support. in the face of itfunding, qualify for the support. in the face of it funding, but about bureaucracy really. fascinating, because this
10:52 pm
week they ran a report on trafficked men who are starting to get access to refugees for their safety stop live there is a big crisis, a big crisis not enough refuge for them, but if we're going to have a society we re but if we're going to have a society were saying but if we're going to have a society we re saying some but if we're going to have a society were saying some people are more human than others, you are left to ask ourselves what we are becoming. let's turn back and we are coming up to wimbledon season, this one is about being dragged into the modern era, do you think is shallow and a very small way. some of us have taken part in the ceremonial ballot i comment and the celebrated. so for hours, i waited and celebrating
10:53 pm
