tv   The Papers  BBC News  May 21, 2019 10:40pm-11:01pm BST

10:40 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are sebastian payne, the whitehall correspondent for the ft, and caroline wheeler, who's the deputy political editor at the sunday times. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in — most of them leading — in some form — on theresa may's announcement of her new brexit deal this afternoon. the guardian says her final effort falls flat — as mps reject her ‘new deal‘. the telegraph, calls is ‘desperate, deluded and doomed', claiming that more than 50 tories will rebel. the metro also talks of tory fury, over what it calls her ‘last—ditched' and the financial times says the same thing, highlighting anger
10:41 pm
over her consession on a second referendum — if mps don't vote her deal through the commons. the sun, says she'll be ‘gurn‘ in the morning, a reference of course to the picture of her speaking today — there on the front page. and the mail calls it ‘a gamble too far‘, saying that even labour have rejected her bid for a new deal.so, the same story dominating all the front pages today — let's see what our reviewers make of it all. caroline he want to take us away with the daily telegraph in a series of three unflattering photos. important to begin with and put it in context of the daily telegraph, this is what has always been the kind of paper of choice for the conservative party member is and we had a very unflattering picture here, not only of what the prime minister is trying to propose in terms of brexit deal but also in her own leadership. they go in on a berry sort of hard line that there
10:42 pm
we re berry sort of hard line that there were calls again this evening for her to resign on the basis of why she has delivered in her speech today, and in particular what seems today, and in particular what seems to have really rankled with everybody is that what she's proposing is debbie and vote on a second referendum, but actually i think it's this line here which is the sort of colour sketch piece on it which sums up really when everybody is which is actually her new brexit deal and attempt to pleasing everybody but only pleases no one but that's a reference also to the fact that what she did —— what they try to do is operate me to the brexiteers by suggesting they seek alternative arrangements on irish backstop, but of christ actually is napping within it that suggested that would in any way be binding and anything more than an aspirational attempt to change things on the basis that the licata agreement as we know, the european union has said they will not reopen, so union has said they will not reopen, so much of it is about a coat decoration decoration and the other issue particularly difficult about
10:43 pm
labour and brexiteers within the party is that in essence what she's proposing is a blind brexit, so you vote and then decide what looks like afterwards and the likely of that is that it'll be with the new leader, so that it'll be with the new leader, so nobody is happy whether it's labour or brexiteers are moderates, within the party who voted for her deal in the past and now they are saying they will not again. are we seeing anything in the telegraph air which suggests a way out are and next step. it's for her to resign and there is a lot of that in the papers tomorrow, we know that she's going to go at some point in the summer going to go at some point in the summer whether it deal passes are not, the amount of backlash for the speech has been absolutely spectacular, there's quite a last minute speech put together, we only found out about it this morning, it was given hastily and running today and the whole idea as you are saying, let's try and do a one last hail mary pass to get a coalition of
10:44 pm
vote rs hail mary pass to get a coalition of voters and parliament together to get this thing over the line and get on with our allies. mrs may have to try and get four groups of mps on with our allies. mrs may have to try and get four groups of mp5 on site, the conservative era sceptics, they were very angry from jacob rees—mogg it to steve baker and ian duncan smith, dad said this is worth that's worse and we are not going near a day that labour is suffered by second referendum if you want on this, opening the door to having a second referendum and they said we did not trust you, we are not on boyd and then the labour pragmatist whojust wanted boyd and then the labour pragmatist who just wanted done boyd and then the labour pragmatist whojust wanted done i imagine like most people, they said we are not getting on board because again we did not trust a future tory pm to rip it up in the the appeal was the dup, they said it's the same oral —— old to deal not budging, so the whole thing is an utter failure for the premise that you look at how it's portrayed in headlines in the papers tomorrow, you have to wonder why she'd bothered giving the speech
10:45 pm
in the first place, number ten, what are they hoping to get out of this at every single target group is going to say we are not on board it's a waste of time now and by the way can you get out of it sooner. equal opportunity offence, and so on that point, can you get out a bit sooner that point, can you get out a bit sooner is the front page of the signed, gone in the morning. at the reference to the 1922 committee, is a meeting once again tomorrow to have a discussion, people on the committee are going to push to have an immediate leadership challenge for mrs ney because lest we forget, she cannot formally be challenged again until december until tory mps try to remove the last year and failed, —— talk about changing rules to allow another challenge is to like moving the goal post happily throughout football game, but an piece so angry now and i don't know what you felt today though but it feels like it's going on among the party, and not just feels like it's going on among the party, and notjust long—time
10:46 pm
rivals, when you're on that stance. it's right and you people who are on board this time the big numbers of people saying we went with that last time largely because it was tied in and she was that i go aware we are about to leave on time and the fact that we had not left on time seems to galvanise the people to say actually now, i would not vote again andi actually now, i would not vote again and i think she's in a very perilous position, we have been here before, we said before she's facing a coup actually got in the morning i think the sunday times read that story, a few times herself but now there's a palpable sense of actually how can we go for a given relay, bringing a withdrawal agreement back to parliament is very much a seat at the last half of the dice because if she does not succeed in getting that throat —— second reading, then we very much face the prospect you have two broke parliament at which goes into question whether to be able to get a into question whether to be able to geta dup into question whether to be able to get a dup agreement back in place if not data create huge problems for
10:47 pm
her. so if we had a situation where eve ryo ne her. so if we had a situation where everyone is already saying they are against it, one wonders if they can bring it forward at all, as we get twice two weeks' time when parliament returns after the recess, but that'll now be a question in their minds as to whether or not they can bring it forward and potentially face and some people speculating 150 mps voting against it. let's look at the mail, it's a chorus at the same headlines. it's significant because the daily e—mail has been supported may and radio even as they had change in leadership in the past few years, it's been more favourable towards her softer brexit deal and now you see they are saying it's a gamble too far and it goes on tory theory, labour rejected, you feel like if she's even lost the daily mail which isa she's even lost the daily mail which is a core constituency, within the country, there's really no rodent
10:48 pm
left for the prime minister and i think this issue of the second referendum, it's not quite there, she didn't cannot say we had a second referendum the way she did say today is if you vote from idl, i will give you another opportunity to wait a second referendum and if you are a brexiteers in the conservative party or in the cabinet, you're going to think and i really going to wa nt going to think and i really going to want that to put this back to the public again and we know people in the cabinet such as steam —— the berkeley were concerned about the prospect of no brexit, and often it's labour mps who don't trust her or the tories, they seemed a bit desperate, doll is a sense of the whole speech today, that she came to the end of the tether and it's like putting up a new christmas tree and hanging bobbles for many people, but then she dragged the tree and left then she dragged the tree and left the room. ironic that labour does not seem to think a second referendum but the tories do you think it means second referendum and therefore a kind of cancel each
10:49 pm
other out in all are offended. they are all offended for that reason the trust is broken down very much now, within the administration and team, they don't think what she says she's capable of delivering, that's a problem for her. when i find astonishing is that i actually fully is this is this is a watered—down version of what was supposed to present to, they were a suggestion she was going to put a second referendum on the face of the bell and that has not happened, but you know can you imagine the controversy that that happened, i think it's right it's a question, and we seen at labour party as well, which is trying to say one thing to brexiteers and then north and another to remain as in the south, and similarly on this occasion teresa may is trying to be all things to all people i think sebastian is absolutely right, so you cannot please everyone all the time and she's been doing that. on that point, sebastian made about cabinet members, some of them had difficult decisions tonight. in some ways we we re difficult decisions tonight. in some ways we were surprised i was
10:50 pm
speaking to a cabinet minister today andi speaking to a cabinet minister today and i said it's a stormy meeting and everything to me no particularly, no star mere than usual. but certainly there has been some briefing around certain individuals within the cabinet particularly around chris grayling, about just what cabinet particularly around chris grayling, aboutjust what his cabinet particularly around chris grayling, about just what his future holds and if we want to hold the line, come morning. obviously, if he has concerns about it, there are other brexiteers who potentially will also be considering the future tonight. the dc league got here if eve ryo ne tonight. the dc league got here if everyone is in the trenches over this, at brexiteers italic to compromise. neither is a second referendum the people in cabinet to make those decisions are not willing to change it i like theresa may was trying to do here, let's get people to work together, the slogan behind heron to work together, the slogan behind her on this piece today was talking about bringing parliament together, when in fact president has never been more divided and i actually think the best part of her piece
10:51 pm
today was what she talked about how dysfunctional the whole british political system is an people watching this and looking and thinking what on earth is going on we want this thing sorted. but now it's too late for that because everyone has got totally stuck on their positions and i can't see anyone fundamentally changing their mind so something has to break. if either going to be a general election our second referendum before it will be a change in prime minister. carolines, front page of the eye, another mass there, they pick at that point and resonate with the play sebastian made, and emotional mates as i tried everything i possibly can to get this to you and i offered to give up thatjob i this to you and i offered to give up that job i love this to you and i offered to give up thatjob i love it, that point about i made compromises time for did the same where are they, so where are they? interesting point because she does not usually make in statements within speeches, she is not known by
10:52 pm
that and clearly i thought it was interesting that he described it as a job that she loved. i'm not sure many people looking from the outside with think it was a picnic for her, in fact the last couple of months have been a complete nightmare for her, and i think that's where the appeal comes from, look what i'm doing, and sacrificing all of the things why can't you sacrifice something in order to get it through and then a question he repeats the mantra again which is if we don't vote this thread then there will be no brexit and that's all there no way along for the last two months been the ultimate sort of threat is that if we don't vote for it brexit you will not get brexit, but of course i think now we have a situation where people are so far apart on this, i think you have to have the kind of crisis and it feels like we have been in crisis for a long time, but i think now we have to see a real sort of had a storm coming now in order to create some kind of change in weather that i think we'll be right is change of data up after that they left they
10:53 pm
start decisions because the arithmetic of parliament are not going to change. we were discussing before, at certain points, you do a general election looks more likely asi general election looks more likely as i can point to second referendum are likely come at the moment with the brexit party, a liberal democrat surging in the polls, you would think this moment in time, i second referendum is looking like a better prospect for most of them than a general election. eyelids that had brexit party rally tonight and they had a big hurrah, and let's not forget we had those on thursday and i guess this one was her life attempt can before people go to the polls to have their say because they think it's really another brexit referendum the new party is ahead of everyone else with over 3000 people and then you london this evening, and then you london this evening, and you know, nigel farage was saying that's what you think she couldn't get lower, this is what she now dies and puts on the table, i think the people —— she now does it,
10:54 pm
and a pushes them further away because yes they were things that ever brexiteers and alternative arrangements for irish border, but really this is trying to appeal to remainders, said this idea of trying to speak to all sides but really this is trying to appeal to remainders, said this idea of trying to speak to all sides will not crisis, i think things will get a lot worse before they those results and it's going to be clear that conservative party will have its we st conservative party will have its west results in 200 years in existence by coming maybe fifth—place in the national election with a handful of mep is, and at that point teresa and they must realise her leadership is what's destroying the party. we have a few more minutes left so let's cut the story is pretty much the same in all the papers, quick look at the guardian, had they had anything that's different or new angle? not really but what i think is interesting about this portrayal is that its treatment of that is different, we have seen with those
10:55 pm
more right—leaning papers they had held their punches et al. in fact they're held their punches et al. in fact they‘ re pretty held their punches et al. in fact they‘re pretty brutal. where is actually when you read most of that yes it stays in the introduction that her attempt to find a community backfired, but it goes to a lot more detail of what she says and gives her a fighting chance to put her argument forward before lambasting them which is what you see what the other papers, before you find out what she said, you find out how people react to them whereas what the guardian tried to do let‘s say some of the things she was doing and trying to explain really the context of it. i think the problem with that is what we know now, what i find extraordinary as you could almost read this is the reaction before she delivered that speech, and sunday on ways when she voted in the sunday times about the big new ball doctor, they were rumblings almost immediately there was nothing you are bald and there was nothing really in there that was going to wina really in there that was going to win a new group of people are for group she needs to get the bill through, so it‘s a treatment that‘s
10:56 pm
interesting. we will leave it there and. we will come back to that later. that‘s it for the papers this hour. sebastian and caroline will be back at half past eleven 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 to sebastian and caroline. we‘ll all be back at 11.30, but for the moment, goodbye. good evening no big changes what you see today‘s what you see tomorrow from 90 by means of blue skies, lengthy spells of warm sunshine, but
10:57 pm
not for all, we had seen marcotte across northern scotland in particular and here at times, we have seen outbreaks of rain through the day. we are in a bit of a high—pressure sandwich, we have low— pressure high—pressure sandwich, we have low—pressure systems setting either side of us, it‘s a weak of high—pressure, so it‘s allowing some weather fronts to make and read, high—pressure, so it‘s allowing some weatherfronts to make and read, is what we had ceded more rain high northern scotland and my cloud here and we have also had fairly light showers as well face in scotland pushing down into northeast england. it had problems at thunder and the showers will continue into the evening before eventually fading away. the rain on and after northern scotla nd away. the rain on and after northern scotland with her bit more cloud here and a cloudy sound pushing into north wales and northwest england and north midlands may produce results. elsewhere, clear sky so chilean in some spots that we may have missed around the first thing wednesday morning that data left quickly. the rain for the northern isles will be quite persistent through wednesday, gradually sinking
10:58 pm
its way further south introducing more cloud here. we had the bodies then stretched into north wales to lincolnshire which could produce one or two showers but from us places the wind is light, lengthy spells and sunshine, the highest at the temperature and further south and east yukon, 20 celsius. possibly the maximum, and did they say, a bit of a pincer movement with the weather frantic edging its way in, but it doesn‘t look as though they‘ll make much of an impact. i think we will keep the cloud and further shirey affects across northern scotland and more cloud working its way into northern ireland and the southern half of the uk as it goes on, but further holes in the cloud allowing for a bright and sunny spots to emerge and once again with light wind, i should feel pleasant with the highest temperatures down twice in southeast of england. bank holiday weekend, looks at the low pressure will have a greater influence on the web as a training more unsettled with rain at times
10:59 pm
but they will these sunny intervals and a bit breezy on sunday.
11:00 pm
this is bbc news. i‘m carrie gracie. the headlines at 11pm: theresa may says mps have one last chance to deliver brexit and promises them a vote on another referendum, if they back her bill. the government will therefore include in the withdrawal agreement bill at introduction a requirement to vote on whether to hold a second referendum, and this must take place before the withdrawal agreement can before the withdrawal agreement can be ratified. but the labour leader jeremy corbyn says his party would not support the bill, and says he can‘t see how it would get through parliament. we can‘t support this bill because it‘s basically a rehash of what was discussed before, and it doesn‘t make any fundamental moves on market
