11:33 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are anne ashworth, associate editor of the times, and john rentoul, chief political commentatorfor the independent. thanks again, both. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the sunday times reveals exclusive details of theresa may's "final desperate gamble" on brexit — by offering concessions tojeremy corbyn, including a temporary customs arrangement with the eu. the sunday telegraph quotes nigel farage, who says "the prime minister will be entering into a coaltion ‘against the people‘ if she agrees a customs deal" with the labour leader. and the observer reports that opposition mps will not back what they call a may—corbyn brexit "stitch—up" — and will insist on a confirmatory vote from the outcome of their talks. the sunday express has an exclusive interview with the sacked defence secretary gavin williamson — who defends himself over the huawei leak. the independent has a picture of the plane that skidded off
11:34 pm
a runway injacksonville, florida into a river — none of the 143 passengers were badly hurt. and finally the mail on sunday criticises dame emma thompson for flying from london to new york, just days after taking part in climate protests in the capital. well, let us begin with something thatis well, let us begin with something that is dominating the front pages. john, brexit revealed, the sunday times, may's last ditch plan to woo labour. do you think we will see a deal this week? there is amazement to unveil a plan tojeremy corbyn, presumably they are going to meet on tuesday. i don't thinkjeremy corbyn is going to agree to it. he doesn't have any incentive to bail the conservatives out. he will have to try to look as if he is being held
11:35 pm
for the unconstructive, but, try to look as if he is being held forthe unconstructive, but, in try to look as if he is being held for the unconstructive, but, in the end it isn't in his interest. if he did, it would split the party stop the party that we are seeing on his front pages. it would split the party, but it would enable jeremy corbyn to look statesmanlike and indeed, the size of the concessions that mrs may seems willing to take oi'i that mrs may seems willing to take ona that mrs may seems willing to take on a customs union, on the single market and enshrining extra worker's rides —— workers' rides into the agreement is exactly what mr corbin sought. —— right. he realises that maybe his position is almost as imperilled as hers and maybe this is the right time to do the deal? wouldn't labour look churlish you... that's always been the case all along. there's hardly any difference between the government and the opposition. labour mp say they want
11:36 pm
to respect the referendum, but they consistently vote against any kind of way of fulfilling it. i never think they will carry on. i think it's terrible because it means brexit isn't going to happen. ura remainer? —— you were a? i think it's going to be a democratic disaster if we don't implemented. as soon asjeremy corbyn hence he is going to do this deal than all of the remainers in the labor party say they will be jumping the remainers in the labor party say they will bejumping up the remainers in the labor party say they will be jumping up and the remainers in the labor party say they will bejumping up and down, saying that we need to kill brexit altogether —— labour. saying that we need to kill brexit altogether -- labour. if we look at the observer, we see "a bid to stitch up a brexit deal." even if the leadership's announced —— the leaderships announced they had come
11:37 pm
together. there seems to be no mood together. there seems to be no mood to agree to anything. it assumes if they keep on bickering, somehow the problem will go away. i'm surmising that what their motivation is for theirs. but do they not see that the results of the local government elections this week indicate a mass discontent with our two main parties and that if they don't shape up and look as if they are — deserve these really rather high—paying jobs look as if they are — deserve these really rather high—paying jobs — people will decide at a general election that they would rather have somebody else. the timing of all this, we look at the telegraph, we have nigel verizon the front page "don't build a coalition against the people." —— farage. "don't build a coalition against the people." -- farage. ithink he's going to do well in those european elections because he has a simple
11:38 pm
message, we voted for brexit, where is it? would that not encourage labour and tory leaders? they lost seats in the north of england. well, they can tolerate that, because in they can tolerate that, because in the end it's the government that ta kes the end it's the government that takes the wrap for not delivering brexit. in the end the opposition can get away with thing on its hands. you know, if the conservative party fails to deliver brexit, that is going to be absolutely disastrous for them. it may not be particular good or labour, but somebody has two former governments and it won't be the labor party. and that's why she is not helping —— is not helping the resume out of her hold. the result for the lib dems may they hold their noses at a general election and going to a coalition with labour, and that's how they form the government. the average member of the public should try to see what the public should try to see what the strategy is here. most people go
11:39 pm
to work and pursue what they do with some plan in mind and we seem to have the people — our lawmakers seem to be careering round looking as if they are trying to be busy, but to little effect. there are hardly any options left from a market, they either have to get a labour — tory dealer bring it back to parliament. we go around and around as we have. —— deal back to parliament. we go around and around as we have. —— deal back to parliamentlj we go around and around as we have. -- deal back to parliament. i reckon she will still be prime minister by the end of the year. it's entirely possible because i wonder if she hasn't really raised her image slightly with the sacking of gavin williams. i was expecting to see more of him on the front page. he's been the fenestrated, but it seems that there is plenty on the inside
11:40 pm
pages, especially on the sunday express. he didn't say much in that interview because there was just a little box on the top saying "exclusive interview with the former defence that retiree." it doesn't say what his case for his defence is, but there is an interesting story in the sunday times where it is suggested that there may took a view against him because he suggested she had diabetes that she wasn't fit to be prime minister. if thatis wasn't fit to be prime minister. if that is true, that could swing some of the sympathy he may have gained from the public. the people who would have rallied behind him might leave him because that is an objectionable comment from anybody, let alone a man holding an office of state. what it undermines his betrayal of himself as a victim of a witch hunt, the headline of one of the papers. meanwhile, the country
11:41 pm
still needs to be run. a lot of domestic stories are not being covered. the sunday telegraph has got one at the bottom here, more than 100 ailing care homes run by directors with history of neglect. that is... as you say, care, it's a massive issue facing our nation. another great policy area that was my then neglected. this would really worry you if your elderly parent was in one of these homes because 100 ailing care homes are run by people who were in charge of other care homes that had to close because of neglect and of the shortcomings. it's pretty worrying, this story. neglect and of the shortcomings. it's pretty worrying, this storym isa it's pretty worrying, this storym is a very worrying story, and it seems as if there is no censure that you can badly run a care home and then carry on an open another. just moving on. we have a quality commission, why aren't they
11:42 pm
intervening? another domestic story here from the independent, teaches one of the threat from parents —— the independent, teachers, warning of death threats from parents. the national association of teachers is quite concerned about that the violence against teachers. some of this has been affecting some birmingham schools where there were demonstrations done outside against lg bt lessons, demonstrations done outside against lgbt lessons, which demonstrations done outside against lg bt lessons, which is, demonstrations done outside against lgbt lessons, which is, not — you know, we had all this ridiculous argument about clause 28 in the 80s. it's not cheap thing children to be 93v, it's not cheap thing children to be 93v: “ it's not cheap thing children to be gay, —— it's not it's not cheap thing children to be gay, -- it's not teaching it's not cheap thing children to be gay, —— it's not teaching children to be gay, it's gay, —— it's not teaching children to be gay, its teaching them about 93v to be gay, its teaching them about gay rights. but some of some of that has escalated and teachers are alarmed about that. years to come home and be in trouble with the teachers and your parents would be oi'i teachers and your parents would be on the teacher's side and it seems
11:43 pm
i'iow on the teacher's side and it seems now there is a very small minority of parents who don't believe their children should be checked at all. and also, this is a great story on background of the greater concerns of teachers who basically had to act as was i parents to ensure children in schools — — as was i parents to ensure children in schools —— quasi—parents. again, it's another policy area that has been neglected. something lighter before we look at before we close. the sunday times, they're giving us nice little snippets, aren't they? this one is youngster rather entertaining film about the story of eddie - entertaining film about the story of eddie — freddie mercury. entertaining film about the story of eddie - freddie mercury. even i know who he is. did you see this? i am not a queen — i am not a queen fan. critics didn't like the film, audiences did, and as a result the
11:44 pm
other members of queen are getting richer and richer. and, rather more richer and richer. and, rather more richer than our monarch. the queen. the benchmark for richness is of course how many queens are you worth. i remember looking at the evaluation of the queen's wealth yea rs evaluation of the queen's wealth years and years ago and it's as ropey as anything. the idea that the queen is rich... she is not a rich person, she is a public figure. she owns a lot of land, taken from the public many many years ago. interesting that the public can see a film that the critics disparaged. another very popular member, much more, where is meghan markle's baby?
11:45 pm
baby suspects should be on our front pages, and a days say everybody was longing for that story to break —— idsa. but it hasn't happened. you promised it would happen in the last hour. it is like a holding thing for the official pictures which will be... it is happening sometimes in the next few days. —— sometime in. it is nice to see you. 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. thank you anne and john.
