11:30 pm
with me... hello. if you are making our plans in the coming days it is worth staying in touch with the weather forecast because things look very u nsettled forecast because things look very unsettled and, at times, very uncertain through the week ahead. one thing we do know is the jet strea m one thing we do know is the jet stream at the moment is diving its way southwards and in their step in the jet stream here we have spun up an area of low pressure. quite a deep low for the time of year. it is heading in our direction to bring some heavy rain and unseasonably strong winds. during friday we are starting off went across the south—western quarter of the british isles. this rain will slowly spread northwards across england and wales. heavy thundery downpours into the afternoon across central and
11:31 pm
southern england, eventually parts of wales stop northern ireland and scotla nd of wales stop northern ireland and scotland predominantly dry for much of the day. it turns increasingly breezy, quite windy in the far south later. temperatures a little disappointing for the time of year. this area of low pressure, once it arrives, will move northwards very slowly as we move into the first half of the weekend. some showers or longer spells of rain, particularly close to the centre of the area of low pressure and around the low we will have some brisk winds. wind gusts 14—15 mph across england and wales across saturday. they could have an impact on outdoor activities. —— borsi or 50 mph. the low finally starts to drift away north east with us we go into sunday. it will be close enough to dry some showers activity through the second part of the weekend. showers, perhaps longer spells of rain at times. tickly across the northern half of the uk. not as many
11:32 pm
showers further south stop the winds will be later by this stage. temperatures not a lot higher. up to 20 degrees in parts of the south—east. low pressure not too far away into monday. various frontal systems likely to be moving through in the north—westerly flow. that could gather the showers activity. organising showers into slightly longer spells. there is uncertainty in the detail at this stage. there will be spells of sunshine, temperature still disappointing. the wind will be coming generally from the north or the north—west. we look like keeping those generally northerly winds into tuesday. low pressure fairly close by, high pressure fairly close by, high pressure trying to build then. quite a complex weather pattern. again there will be showers in places, perhaps longer spells of rain. the wind is probably relatively light at this stage. coming from that northerly direction. 12 degrees in aberdeen, maybe 18 or 19 across parts of the south. later next week
11:33 pm
that complex weather pattern continues. that complexity is what brings a lot of uncertainty. computer weather models referred when the jet stream is moving simply from west to east. instead it looks like this on a dip in thejet stream, it will spin itself up into a cut—off low. a separate area of low pressure that will be left spinning some weight robert lee to the south of the british isles does somewhere to the south. it looks like high pressure will try to build its way in. it is a battle between the high and the low as to which one winds later next week. it looks like the high pressure will probably be dominant. it will probably turn drier. but there is a lot of uncertainty. it is worth staying tuned to the forecast. hello. this is bbc news with shaun ley.
11:34 pm
we'll be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment — first the headlines. 75 years on from the d—day landings, a day of honour for the veterans gathered in normandy to remember those who helped liberate europe and change the course of the second world war. this evening, the roar of the red arrows that fly past from the red arrows that fly past from the french acrobatic team as thousands pay tribute here in the uk. in other news, playing with his son moments before walking out of the doorfor the son moments before walking out of the door for the last time, more from the inquest into the london bridge attacks. ford has announced the closure of its bridgend plant, putting 1700 jobs at risk. bad news, especially for the youngsters. these are good, well— paid jobs.
11:35 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the telegraph's economics and trade correspondent, anna isaac, and the broadcaster and author, john kampfner. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. let's bring you up—to—date with what they are saying. the ft leads honest theresa may's row with philip hammond. d—day commemorations take pride and place on many of the front pages. the daily mirror have —— has a moving picture of a 60—year—old boy holding hands with another vetera n. boy holding hands with another veteran. they fought for our futures. one elderly veteran is having a whale of a time on the
11:36 pm
front of the telegraph. i hope his wife isn't reading the telegraph. alongside says the headlines, boris johnson is the only tory who can ta ke johnson is the only tory who can take on nigel farage in the fight for vote rs. take on nigel farage in the fight for voters. if the brexit party when the by—election. the guardian goes ona the by—election. the guardian goes on a different direction. the times says mps fear the queen will be dragged into brexit because of the suggestion parliament can't block a no—deal brexit. a striking image of the french air force's d—day fly past watched by the trumps and macrons. this is a little boy wearing medals of his grandfather meeting a real life veteran.
11:37 pm
lovely moment. it is the perfect way to express the amount of time that has passed since the day itself. you canjust has passed since the day itself. you can just see that there is this shared feeling that cuts through what we see. we see older people often leading these commemorations and we forget that they were young people. these were young men when they were involved in these conflict. this is what defined their youth rather than what defines their old age. this may be the last time we have this many veterans together to market. a terrific opportunity for the youngsters. lovely stuff yesterday with a group of children asking a guy about the medals he was wearing. what is that wonderful? why do you have more than he's got? lovely opportunities to start conversations. i know a lot of vetera ns conversations. i know a lot of
11:38 pm
vete ra ns go conversations. i know a lot of veterans go into schools and talk about their experiences and obviously kids talk to their great grandad and grandma about what they saw and experienced. such an important way of keeping these moments alive. that is the passage of time issue and sadly, these veterans, and there aren't many left, they are in their mid— 90s, time is against them. when they passed, so does the war experience but go from being the lived experience to history. that inevitably changes perspectives and then its on younger generations, both to commemorate but also reinterpret and reapply it to a modern setting which is, i think these d—day commemorations coinciding with donald trump's visit was so coinciding with donald trump's visit was so important because on the one hand, over the last was so important because on the one hand, overthe last1.5 was so important because on the one
11:39 pm
hand, over the last 1.5 days, the most important thing was pure and simple, to commemorate the extraordinary bravery of those who fought through those who are still living. and bob president macron is a simply thank you. alongside that, what other lessons learned ? important to have the german chancellor there and have this united western front and also, ostentatiously, not to invite b putin, which was the right thing to do. someone was drawing attention to this and there is a good cartoon today. by the way, don't forget us next time, showing a russian soldier dressed as he would in the war because you can snub the putin.
11:40 pm
there is the alliance. with the chinese. there is all of that and the... and germany is happy to take russian gas which is likely to be subject to us sanctions so there is a lot more at play. there is a nato survival. and huawei. security, energy, all of it in the mix. it is quite disturbing. i know you would make it a point to make it a western event but i think it is quite disturbing you don't have president xijinping and disturbing you don't have president xi jinping and putin. disturbing you don't have president xijinping and putin. you can't co nsta ntly xijinping and putin. you can't constantly have this divide between value and commerce or when you have this level of inconsistency. the picture with president macron and trumps is telling. they are about to become adverse areas in a relatively heated set of trade tensions because my child is set to push ahead on
11:41 pm
tariffs. anything coming into the us is likely to be hit with the tax. what does that mean in the postwar consensus when these are shared values and we have each other‘s backs? we are all nato members? german companies, they were superseded by the chinese a few years ago, they saw china as the gift that keeps on giving, this massive growing market. half a billion people coming spenders, moving into the chinese middle class, now they are freaking out and they are going the complete reverse and saying china is a threat, looking to buy up their middle sized companies which are the engine room of their economy. all of these weird things going on and with trumps and china. the telegraph. a lovely picture. this is a veteran having a
11:42 pm
whale of a time. it is not true that all the nice girls never say that. we we re all the nice girls never say that. we were commenting on his scarf. incredibly colourful. also the poignancy of the moment but also the very public nature of today's celebrations and that idea of bringing these extraordinary emotions with you but also under the glaze of the public eye. some veterans being reluctant to do that. referring to commemorate, to remove —— rememberthings referring to commemorate, to remove —— remember things that are still incredibly painful for them. you could see attached on the faces of those men. it feels almost invasive but it is important to be aware of
11:43 pm
them at least. the moments when you can see people remembering not only what they saw or experienced but the people who didn't, who aren't there. who haven't had the joy of life after wading through this death. who haven't had the joy of life after wading through this deathm is such a tricky balance. a lovely picture on the front of the times. this is rather nice because it is a great picture of the red arrows that it is also quite a clever picture of the mac runs and the trumps. —— the macrons. the french fly past, isn't it? the body language is quite interesting. the, to be honest, in
11:44 pm
any type of difficult political relationship and the macron — trumps one started quite well but these commemorations, unless you make a mistake, they are the easy bits to get together choreography. it is when you start dealing with details of policy and differences, that's where the problems begin. let's move onto the hard meet politics will stop this is an interesting story. we are in a mad world. brexit conquers a land where strange parliamentary terms crop up. we are now in pro— road getting —— pro—roguing. it sounds funny. let's press ahead with a no—deal brexit.
11:45 pm
make parliament one happen for a little while. it is bold. it has caused a big outcry. you have people like stewart jackson, former mp for peterborough, interestingly, given that no's count is going on. he worked with david davis... a passionate supporter of brexit. a big brexiteer saying this may be the only option. at the moment parliament is supporting democracy. what you have in this proroguing moment is the perfect example of grassroots democracy meets representative democracy and it speaks to the whole tension we have... it speaks to the whole tension we have. . . the it speaks to the whole tension we have... the fear is that the request to do this would have to go to the queen. the queen dissolves parliament. therefore it is notjust a political power you can exercise.
11:46 pm
you are dragging the monarchy into something potentially contentious. john bercow, the speaker, today, not oi'i john bercow, the speaker, today, not on my watch. and again trying to work out what his role in this would be. i'm sure he would find one. he usually does. it goes to the heart, the economist last week had a good cove r, the economist last week had a good cover, speaking a britain's mess up constitution. our constitution is a basket case. unwritten, not quite written... basket case. unwritten, not quite written. . . that basket case. unwritten, not quite written... that has been one of its advantages, its flexibility. that is why we have evolution rather than a revolution. i said the brexit situation is bonkers. that is more about the institutions we have, rather than the constitution. we have power invested. you rely on the power you invested with certain people, the queen with royal prerogative, john bercow as speaker,
11:47 pm
to test the resilience of the institutions. you can have a codified constitution and have this. if you have something that is not fit for the present time, even if codified, it won't work. we have strains obscure cropping up with parliament because of the fundamental problem that is the numbers, the national divide, and the internal political party divides. we only had parliamentary debates and discussions and boats because the activist gina miller took it to the courts and the court said shall be, shine 20, and let us get parliament to decide. the government wanted to do it by executive order the back of the referendum. —— shahed oui. it is one area where i think you and i... not just the original decision, brexit, but the complete mess of our political system, whether you are for brexit or against brexit, chaos
11:48 pm
is the work, basket case, whatever you want to call it. and we are a laughingstock around the world are not because of the original decision, but the... let us move on. not move on very much. but your paper, the telegraph, only boris can fight off nigel farage, a poll finds a. this is an in anticipation of the peterborough result. it is the idea that the brexit party is an existential threat to the tory party because they are very much coalescing. they have had a drubbing in the european elections. they are really panicking. there wondering if they should take it in a harder direction. —— they are wondering. it is difficult to see... sajid javid saying tonight don't try to emulate the brexit party. don't be the
11:49 pm
brexit party trying to see off the brexit party trying to see off the brexit party. there are still so many different horses in this leadership election race at the moment. it is difficult to see where ha rd moment. it is difficult to see where hard brexit ends and tory begins. they should not be mean about your paperand my they should not be mean about your paper and my former paper, it is where i started —— i should not. they have great affection for it evenif they have great affection for it even if they don't agree with the views. i thought it was a serious paper. but i afraid it is really the daily boris —graph. just regurgitating what boris thinks. he does have a poll. the interesting bit in it isn't actually that bed, it is the bit about the brexit party and saying it is learned that the party has already vetted 200 prospective mps with a whole lot more to go through. we were speculating a little while back about how do you vet and you would
11:50 pm
need one of these, if you want to do it properly, you need one of these very expensive risk companies to go through all your social media. to do that with 602 prospective people and more is a challenge. your brief attention to the story at the bottom. mark carney. they will try to do this in a non—technical way. we have all heard this story or may have heard the story about an asset management fun run by neil woodford. cash fund. at the moment it is gated and people cannot get their money out. some people have pensions with kent county council. there are hundreds of millions of pounds in there. what mark carney has warned about, even before this situation, is that these funds have invested in things like property, things that are not quick to sell, but the promise they make to the pension funds as you can draw your cash out on the same day. if the stock market
11:51 pm
and other assets dropped, it becomes difficult to get your cash back. imagine we have a big market downturn, then we are facing a bad situation where people will be running, there money out of this asset management companies will have to try to sell their assets really quickly to get the cash and then you have everything you need for a fire sale. this is a serious warning we are seeing with the woodford fund. just because it is a small part of the front of the paper doesn't mean it doesn't. .. the front of the paper doesn't mean it doesn't... it is the front of the paper doesn't mean it doesn't. .. it is a big story that has been brewing for a long time. this is within x—rays of some strong. i'd give john the last word on the love story. the guardian. they will let you cover it. we have run out of time. let us not get into a catholic censorship row. you and i we re a catholic censorship row. you and i were reciting the lord's prayer earlier. as we do before all paper reviews. we need all the help we can get. very quickly then. pope francis
11:52 pm
has risked the wrath of traditionalist, says the guardian, by saying and lead us not into temptation, et cetera, it will say do not let us fall into temptation, which is a bit rubbish. it is a bit, kind of... flat, don't you say?|j have few thoughts about this. if god wa nts to have few thoughts about this. if god wants to lead me into temptation thatis wants to lead me into temptation that is his prerogative. whatever may happen after they leave the studio tonight, we believe that in the hands of the almighty. that is it from the papers. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — 7 days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers. and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. a big thank you to my guests this evening, anna and john. and from all of us, goodnight. don't forget to say your prayers.
