made a been overwhelming. it has made a difficult period little bit better. had it was my parents know that isn't anything more they can do to save their son but they want to raise awareness of childhood cancers and funds for research to help the little children in the future. our life is about to be shattered apart, we are about to lose our darling son. wejust don't we are about to lose our darling son. we just don't want other families in future to have to go through the same thing. a lot of the research into children's cancers is quite out of date. funds are desperately needed. today was a happy day and a magical memory for lewis hamilton's good look term. —— good luck charm. that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers.
10:41 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are political strategist, jo tanner and broadcaster, david davis. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. the telegraph leads on the call from the foreign secretary, jeremy hunt, to "decisively increase" defence spending to cope with future threats from all over the globe. this the paper also features a tribute to the actress doris day who dies today aged 97. her image features across a number of the front pages. the financial times focusses on the us—china trade wars after beijing said it would raise
10:42 pm
tariffs on $60bn of american goods. the metro goes with itv‘s decision to "indefinitely" axe thejeremy kyle show after a guest was found dead a week after filming an episode of the show. the star also leads on thejeremy kyle story. according to the paper the show was apparently pulled after a man failed a lie detector test on the show and died of a drug overdose a few days later. the daily express says organised crime is now one of the deadliest threats we face. that's the call from the national crime agency chief to increase funding to fight career gangsters. the guardian leads on the warning from the nobel prize—winning economist, sir angus deaton, that rising inequality means the uk could become as unequal as the us, which is one of the most unequal nations on earth.
10:43 pm
the times goes on the warning from senior tories that theresa may risks splitting the conservative party if she strikes a brexit deal with labour. the paper says 13, if the prime ministers former cabinet colleagues want her to reject any jeremy corbyn's demand for a cross—party deal to break the brexit deadlock. isa is a look at it tomorrow's front pages. let's go through them in detail. starting off with jeremy hunt let's go through them in detail. starting off withjeremy hunt in the daily telegraph. david, do you want to start us off without. cynical readers might see this as a pet to the right wing of the conservative party in any future leadership election. it is clear to some of us thatjeremy hunt plasma's campaign to be the next tory leader and indeed prime minister is under way
10:44 pm
in all but name. here he is... i thought he was the foreign secretary not the defence secretary, not the new. . . that not the defence secretary, not the new... that is what is called overreaching! he is telling us, this must be music to a man called trump in the white house. he says we should increase our defence spending to something like 4% of gdp as opposed to 2% as it is at the moment. that is doubling. absolutely. it is considerably more than most of the other european countries, which is what mr trump spends a lot of time complaining about, europe isn't pulling its weight. her a lot of voters might think he's right. we need to spend more on defence. we need to spend
10:45 pm
more on defence. we need to spend more on more on defence. we need to spend more on lots of things. jeremy hunt, you may remember, was a health secretary i wanted a lot more money spent on nhs. it very rich of him say that. i'm slightly disturbed by the fact that jeremy has gone on defence like this because it is a bit rude. it is an interesting move when we've got a brand—new defence secretary who hasn't made a major speech yet. the first female defence secretary. he should have waited for her to say something. it isn't right her to say something. it isn't right her speech will be response to this. but there is effectively, whether it is declared or not, a campaign running now. there's been one going for a while. we've had pictures of candidates with that families, children, the hustings around. this weekend we had missed a broken shire with his wife's double ovens in her
10:46 pm
kitchens. it is extraordinary what some of these candidates think is a good way to protect yourself. we had liz truss, had a huge spread on a sunday newspaper. and huge hair, she had quite a makeover. also on the front of the telegraph, we've got michael gove who may be another contender. he is calling on his colleague still allow theresa may to resign on her own terms and to give her more time. michael gove has taken an interesting position. he started off not appealing to be a candidate and during the series of meaningful votes on the withdrawal agreement made one very big speech as he closed in one of the debates and that was seen to be one of the first times the tory benches
10:47 pm
actually united behind anyone, they got very animated, there was a lot of weaving papers around. it seemed to be the moment michael gove, the suggestion he could be a leader. it seems to start to resurrect itself. this is an interesting one because the challenge now for any other tory wa nt the challenge now for any other tory want to be leaders as, effectively, the conservative party is won't believed as a standout but it is a precarious time and it could have serious repercussions. i don't believe the electorate and particularly those on the left are going to go crazy at the idea that the tories can hand over power to another prime minister, it is unsavoury. nobody likes it, it isn't pleasant. that is the way party politics works in this country. but it's the same michael gove who was accused of being the most treacherous man in britain not so long ago in british politics after
10:48 pm
he forced boris out of standing. the very same man who went on to save lots of dolphins and made himself cuddly. it's amazing what you can do to reform your character when required. staying with politics and the conservative party, is the times front page. theresa may will sacrifice the loyal middle of her party if she strikes a deal with labour on brexit. this is according toa group labour on brexit. this is according to a group of former cabinet ministers and that group includes the sacked defence secretary, by the way. so michael fallon is also included in that. for those of us who have been out of the country for a month and have come back, it seems remarkably nothing really of huge significance has happened. on
10:49 pm
brexit? on brexit. donald takes side when they gave the uk that extension, please don't waste this time. you do wonder. the talks with labour are struggling on and yet... close to collapse. they're not getting anywhere. there's been suggestions that the positions are in the party is not unified in terms of discussions. the parties are unified which is why there is a huge problem in terms of any discussions under way such discussions are going on. where does this leave theresa may? under massive pressure to go. nothing has changed! the most worrying paragraph, the fifth paragraph of the times stories, senior ministers will press theresa may to end labour talks but are
10:50 pm
split over what happens next. that could have been written five weeks ago. what is your inside track to? how long do you think she's going to stay around ? how long do you think she's going to stay around? there was a small story early on that suggested she would be gone, same source had said she would be gone byjuly and very fast. i'm not sure based on the tory leadership roles in the way they do it, ithink leadership roles in the way they do it, i think they run a fairly lengthy, at least six weeks for the actual contest in terms of going out to vote. the problem is, we've all talked about theirs being runners and riders and it can take a long time to narrow them down depending on how many run. the timescale is how to predict. there are others that have said to me she will be here ina that have said to me she will be here in a year's time and everybody starts to feel fed up. let's go to the daily express. organised crime is the deadliest threat we face.
10:51 pm
this is the national crime agency, their chief saying they need a lot more resources to tackle organised crime and it is a massive danger. this extraordinary figure in this story in the daily express, britain's fbi one is 181,000 individuals are linked to organised crime. 181,000. if that is an accurate statistic, and one does wonder how the work that out, it is startling. but there is no doubt that, as in these days of artificial intelligence and all the rest of it, that the criminal fraternity and the organised criminal fraternity are getting highly intelligent. as a big problem to fight. the issue around
10:52 pm
the links to organised crime is its goes into everything, from drug dealing, cyber criminals, human trafficking gangs, there are all sorts of very scary people that are involved in lots of very bad stuff. it's often interlinked and thus the problem. cracking them takes a lot of money. in this newspaper review we of money. in this newspaper review we started off by talking about jeremy hunt wanting ir% instead of 2% of gdp, even more money for the fans, and here we have the national crime agency wanting more money. everybody wants more money. the metro highlighting this story about thejeremy metro highlighting this story about the jeremy kyle metro highlighting this story about thejeremy kyle show metro highlighting this story about the jeremy kyle show which metro highlighting this story about thejeremy kyle show which has been suspended by itv after the death of a participant a few days after having been on the programme. it is
10:53 pm
quite a controversial programme anyway, it has been described today by many people on social media as poverty pawn. it has been suspended. what you make of that? you think that i going to be more repercussions? it makes you wonder if there has been a direct link made between a gas's death and the show, the timescales involved. there are other headlines that are alluding to what that might be. the sun is a saying this was somebody in the programme who failed a lie detector test. and then died of a drug overdose. the light detector debate about whether people have had affairs, different issues around theft, they have been played out on theft, they have been played out on the show between guests, they've used the lie detector test is the big reveal. it has become a signature part of the show. if there has been one link made on the issue
10:54 pm
is whether they should look more into other guests on what happens to them. these shows are, people get keen on getting on tv and they sort of think they're going to get their five minutes of fame, not necessarily for the right reasons. at the after—care on some of these shows is questionable, have been lots of commentators coming out. i used to work on a show many years ago as a young researcher and i was quite shocked back then, i'm talking 20 years, about the after—care. i would hope it is better now. but you don't know how people are going to ta ke don't know how people are going to take some of the issues that come up. if you're a guest as well, you've had a life exposed, that is a lot of after care required. things have improved, there is much more concerned about the welfare that television companies, some television companies, some television companies, some
10:55 pm
television companies take much more ca re television companies take much more care about the after effects of appearance on these shows. they are dealing with really big issues. but there are contradictory stories as well. i happen to know one of the people who appeared in one of these shows called the unbeatable. his family were impressed with the concern and the care that went into this programme. i've heard others who are highly critical. it's a hugely popular show, 3000 episodes people have talked about since 2005. you do wonder tonight whether this is the end of the show. whether it can come back from this. les and by talking about doris day, great hollywood legend whose diet. —— died. she was 97. some lovely
10:56 pm
pictures of her across all the papers. this was herfavourite, apparently. she said she felt she resembled calamity jane the apparently. she said she felt she resembled calamityjane the most out of all the characters she played. and so, apparently, was particularly keen on this character. she had an incredible life. for marriages, all miserable by the sounds of it, and even dated ronald reagan at one point. she could have been the first lady of the us! what a white house that would have been! but it is extraordinary. i suspect younger people may have been quite astonished by the fact that the six o'clock news light on this story. it's a reflection of what a huge star doris day was and that particular moment in history. and
10:57 pm
that it ain't came and it went and she was something of a recluse by all accounts. —— and that time came. you've been threatening to sing for us, david. only in a duet or indeed, the three of us. viewers, if you tune in at 11:30pm, if there is popular demand for you to saying, we will broadcast that at 11:30pm! i've got to leave early! that's it from the papers at the moment. political strategist, jo tanner and broadcaster, david davis. will be back at 11.30pm for another look at the papers, and 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 jo and david. goodbye.
