9:33 am
tyson fury is having surgery in a las vegas hospital after suffering a brutal cut in his win over swedish heavyweight otto wallin on a unanimous points decision. fury entered the ring in a sombrero and poncho to celebrate mexico's independence day... and the early exchanges that followed led to fury suffering a deep cut over his eye in the third round which threatened to ruin his unbeaten record. several times the referee had to ask the british fighter to cover it up while also asking the doctor to check it but fury eventually prevailed... they were two of the worst cuts i have ever seen and a fight from the guy has gone nine runs with these wounds.
9:34 am
nine rounds with these gaping gashes. tyson fury never panicked once, he dabbed relentlessly and repeatedly at the eye but did not panic and that is just as well because the swede, we have loads of cliches in boxing, the entire business is based on cliches, he came to fight and he went down swinging so tyson had to dig deep and go back to the corner and try and be calm during the minute as the cut was momentarily healed. there was no panic but it was really tough throughout. england will hope to eke out as many runs as possible this morning as they try and win the final ashes test. they have a lead of 382 over australia with two second innings wickets remaining... resuming on 313 for 8. even though australia have retained the ashes... an england victory at the oval will level the series. we have spoken about the factory desperately want to win the test
9:35 am
match and finish the series as outright winners but at the same time we are proud of what we have done and the fact we are taking the urn home, that was the primary goal while we came here. to take that off has been fantastic. it's all set up for an exciting final day at the solheim cup — with europe and the usa tied on 8 points all at gleneagles. europe were still one point ahead going into the afternoon fourballs but georgia hall and celine boutier were the only pair to win in the afternoon, the usa coping better with the pressure as three matches went to the final hole. play begins at 11 o'clock — europe haven't lost the final day singles in any of the past four tournaments. five points is the biggest advantage any side has had after the first five games of a premier league season. that's what liverpool now have over reigning champions manchester city... and given how tight the title race was last season. . . could city's defeat at norwich prove pivotal? nick parrott rounds up the action at the top of the table.
9:36 am
last year the premier league was 16 games old before manchester city lost, and that was away to chelsea. so why have they faltered so soon against promoted norwich, who were expected to struggle? in the boxes they were better. we were not so productive in front. norwich were clinical. they only had three efforts on target, but all of them went in. norwich city have believed! the second from todd cantwell came from a fast and flowing counterattack that city would have been proud of. when norwich lost concentration at the back, sergio aguero took advantage, that was nothing compared to the misunderstanding between stones and otamendi. they have only been paired at the back six times in the last 20 months. they will have to work out a better rapport.
9:37 am
liverpool went behind early at home to newcastle, but unlike the champions they roared back to win, maintaining their 100% record and remaining at the top. beneath them, other teams who started the season well are now faltering. leicester city dropped out of the top four after marcus rashford ended their unbeaten run. so did crystal palace, who conceded four. the musical chairs could continue today with arsenal and everton hopeful. elsewhere tammy abraham scored a hattrick in chelsea's 5—2 win at wolves... southampton won 1—0 at sheffield united... who had a goal disallowed via var. and brighton and burnley finished i—i. scottish premiership leaders celtic had a slender win at hamilton to maintain their 100% start to the league season.
9:38 am
james forrest scored the only goal of the game in the first five minutes. wins too for rangers in second, motherwell, kilmarnock and ross county. this time next week we'll be just about to see the first home nations action of the rugby world cup. england, scotland and ireland all play next sunday morning... and we're getting reports from japan that england could be without both flanker mark wilson and joe cokanasiga for their opening match against tonga which follows shortly after. both are a big part of eddiejones‘ plans for the tournament but haven't been able to take part in training due to injuries. meanwhile wales have concerns over locks adam beard and cory hill and scotland are likely to be without flankerjamie richie for the ireland game. alice tai's incredible run of gold medals at the world para swimming championships in londonwas brought to an end by her fellow—briton brock whiston. tai had won six races in a row but she was beaten into fourth place

in the 200—metre individual medley, with whiston setting a new world record at her first major event. barring accident or misfortune primoz roglic will win cycling's final grand tour of the year — the vuelta a espana. the slovenian finished fifth in yesterday's penultimate stage, which was enough to secure the leader's red jersey ahead of spain's alejandro valverde. as tradition dictates, roglic won't be challenged on today's final stage which ends in madrid. and a huge crowd in manchester city centre watched mathieu van der pol win the final stage of the tour of britain, and take the title with it. 11 year old sky brown has won a bronze medal at the park world skateboarding championships in brazil. it's her best finish of the year and comes at an event that counts towards qualification for tokyo 2020. brown is aiming to become britain's youngest summer olympian at next year's games. that's all the sport for now.
9:40 am
now on bbc news, back to shaun ley with the papers. hello and welcome to our sunday morning paper review. with me are sian griffiths, the education editor of the sunday times and political editorjames millar. let's ta ke a look at the front pages. there's more from david cameron's memoirs on the front page of the sunday times — including further criticism of borisjohnson, who according to mr cameron "didn't believe in brexit" and backed the leave campaign only to "help his political career". the mail on sunday's headline: "we'll break free from the eu like the incredible hulk". in an interview with the paper — mrjohnson says that if brexit negotiations break down — he'll ignore the vote to avoid no—deal — adding — ‘the madder hulk gets, the stronger hulk gets. sam gyimah‘s defection to
9:41 am
the liberal democrats dominates the front page of the observer. towards populism and english nationalism'. the sunday telegaph claims borisjohnson will use the upcoming queen's speech to unveil a tough new approach to criminaljustice — including whole—life orders for people convicted of murdering pre—school children. the sunday express claims british people have lost faith in mps — citing a poll suggesting almost eight in ten believe parliament is in desperate need of reform and 7k per cent believe it is not fit for the 21st century. and in an interview with the sunday mirror — the former wales rugby captain gareth thomas reveals he is hiv positive — a secret he says has tortured him for years. he now hopes he can help ‘break the stigma' around the condition. lets begin with the sunday times, it was a gentle criticism unveiled yesterday but this is the real hard
9:42 am
hitting stuff from david cameron at the expense not just hitting stuff from david cameron at the expense notjust of boris johnson but also michael gove. the paper has splashed on david cameron's memoirs and he is reflecting on his decision to hold the referendum three years ago and in particular on why he lost a critical vote. he absolutely in this blistering attack blames two people, two key generals he says defected to the league campaign, borisjohnson and michael gove and ofjohnson healy doesn't push has punches, you says he didn't believe in brexit and only do that to help as particle career and michael gove he says the one quality that shines through as disloyalty. very strong language and he admits that he himself made mistakes, he doesn't think he was wrong to hold the referendum but he made mistakes during the campaign
9:43 am
but he absolutely blames these two for the fact that leave one and that he lost. i collect it feeling it is the classic acquisition against this cameron tony posh boys playing with the country and feel that way. he is attacking johnson and michael gove, not saying identity referendum and we are hurtling towards no deal which is going to hurt people and the pocket on physically effort as medicine shortages, no deal is really bad and he is not engaging with that, he is going they were horrible to me and anything would have been fine except for these other people. it is a bit pathetic. the currency of political memoirs is good to be personalities rather than issues and you know don't talks of all kinds of issues but it is too tempting for a newspaper to splash
9:44 am
this on the front page. the headline about the lawyers, he also has a pop at the famous bus believing women £350 million extra for the nhs and he said that wasn't true and on the front page they had an extra well in the sunday times, they have the photos and michael gove and dominic cummings. the something of the night about him. that is an absolute attack on them but also in the book attack on them but also in the book a very moving extract which is about the camerons losing their first son. whilst that is the political psychodrama that is also a very moving personal account of what it was like to lose a child. let's move on to the current prime minister's
9:45 am
latest interview in which he shows he isa latest interview in which he shows he is a man of latest interview in which he shows he isa man ofa latest interview in which he shows he is a man of a certain age because he is a man of a certain age because he remembers as i do growing up and watching the cannibal halt on the television, it is an interesting analogy. watching the incredible hulk. the two studies are unbelievably unusual to have one prime minister calling a successor airliner which is essentially what he is doing —— calling him a liar. then you go into the study and why should we believe anything he says and he chooses to try and deflect attention from the cameron memoir by going to the hulk. anybody reading this thinks this man is a buffoon, what is he talking about. he is doing a scene is negotiation next week in brussels and compelling
9:46 am
himself to the hulk. i struggle with what has gone through anybody's mind. the more beefy stuff as signs of movement in berlin, paris and dublin over getting a deal, solving the backstop but not offering any actual solution. apparently he has a secret plan and there is a new legal text which doesn't want to share and lesson gets licked. —— in case it gets licked. i think it is very clever on the front page you have the cartoon of the hulk. it is an appeal to the popular vote, we know boris is one of the most popular
9:47 am
politicians and enable fi as sustained remain would have one and the seven appealing that he is tough and taking on the eu. he has populist but i'm not sure he is popular. settling on fb have a no—deal brexit. popular. settling on fb have a no-deal brexit. people are having a bit of a laugh. i suspect it is very divisive, a few at a modest fan you think he is a legend of anything else you think is a befriend. —— a buffoon. whitehall sources suspect mrjohnson is planning to prorogue parliament as part of moves to prevent having to ask for an extension, i don't know how that works. that is intriguing. there has
9:48 am
beena works. that is intriguing. there has been a lot of talk people saying you cannot prorogue parliament to do brexit, if you did that there will be serious questions. we are waiting for the supreme court to rule on whether the avast prorogation was legal or not. it is interesting to talk about that because in the context of the observer study which is the exclusive from last night sam gyimah defected to the lib dems in one of the reasons as notjust the party going towards english nationalism but a government sing one. as the centrepiece of its platform and yet says in another brace it is going to pick and choose which was its service. that gets to the sum of the anger felt couple of weeks ago by these tories who had the whip taken away. it shows how
9:49 am
smart sam gyimah is and what it as the party, an interesting background, raised in africa and we nt background, raised in africa and went to copperhead school and got to oxbridge, a rising star of the tory party. very close to david cameron, a private secretary and very close to the project and he has clearly thought about the interview even thought about the interview even though he only lost the whip a week ago, it would suggest he has been having doubts for a while pondering whether he belongs in the current tory party. that is not a particularly party political point, it isjust logic particularly party political point, it is just logic that you cannot on one hand say he had on crime and on the other c and we are going to break the law. and the lib dems any position where they were in the 90s when back then it was a generation of tory europeans, many of them
9:50 am
defected to the lib dems, know it is over brexit. presumably the only advantage for the tory point of view of living as the run not be any more of living as the run not be any more of this and future generations. there may well be more defections to come, this takes the liberal democrats up to 18 mps in parliament andi democrats up to 18 mps in parliament and i don't think we have seen the end of the mass exodus especially from the tory party and possibly from the tory party and possibly from labour as bill. it proves the right to vote jo swinson as they don't because part of her appeal was ican get don't because part of her appeal was i can get people, she was a minister and the coalition and return what with sam gyimah in some capacity. also bringing an excellent mps as well, how that will play out another
9:51 am
election looking for unsafe lib dems it's of which there are very few people with an civil stock clear she is doing what she thinks and see her that plays out. this study is buried away, and article from tony blair but she says nice things about corbyn which in itself is newsworthy but this perhaps more interesting story suggesting labour as hatching apm story suggesting labour as hatching a pm carbon plot with a second vote on brexit. a secret plan to make jeremy corbyn care taken pm to hold a second referendum. edward c boris johnson thrown out of number ten and a confidence vote next month and mr corbyn taking his place as prime
9:52 am
minister. he would promise a second referendum, the timing would be much 2020 and a general election the following month, a whole new scenario. it is a really interesting study, i have been saying for a while i do not think there will be an election this year, everybody wants to avoid a winter election if the can. it suggests why jo swinson might be brought on board that dems didn't to campaign and scottish seats in the middle of a potentially ha rd seats in the middle of a potentially hard winter wedding nights are much longer. i hate to be a scotland bore but the snp at the quay, they have twice as many seats as the mid—dems, they will have a lot after whatever election they will want an independence referendum in return for getting in bed with anybody.
9:53 am
they have still got the snp on board. the minute you get them on board. the minute you get them on board the hunt dems will see we are out notes and mickey was numbers add up out notes and mickey was numbers add up is actually really hard, it is a really interesting idea but as ever it isa really interesting idea but as ever it is a numbers game and i'm not sure how the numbers will add up but i would not rule anything out. i wouldn't say it is not going to happen. a couple more things, the suggestion that we might actually have a new measure to effectively mean that some murderers will never be eligible for release, a very small category subject to a whole life tariff like the option repellent. it is the question of people who commit upon crimes like killing children. this is the study
9:54 am
that suggestion is that killers of young children will never be released, to ensure life means life and the paper as saying that the queen speech will be used to announce a new sentencing queen speech will be used to announce a new sentencing bill and that for first—time murderers of preschool children will be subject to whole life orders. ijust do not follow this because sometimes mothers kill their children when they have postnatal depression. by and be particularly singling out this group of very young children as being particularly apparent crimes. there are many different types of crime within that category and many have mitigating circumstances. it doesn't seem to be right you should ta ke doesn't seem to be right you should take away the discussion judges have to determine sentences within certain parameters and have these whole life orders, that seems wrong. it pushes the crime button, it is a
9:55 am
key line in this which must be perfect all parties in the courts have lost the plot in sentencing. we agree with the public, we were like as quickly and aggressively as we can govern parliament does not want to do what the people want on crime just doesn't doesn't on brexit. it isa just doesn't doesn't on brexit. it is a brexit story at times out. this adjust populism. nobody will disagree, clearly people who kill children should be treated as harshly as possible. it depends on the circumstances, on a case—by—case basis. that is why we have judges and courts. it is an attack on the judicially, a court case coming up on tuesday on how legal or not provocation as an does this fit into that? are going to give you the last one because we are short of time, the male and the toilet. it is a
9:56 am
story in all the papers, a golden lavatory stone from blenheim palace, worth £4.8 million was ripped out at the weekend we do not know by whom andi the weekend we do not know by whom and ijust the weekend we do not know by whom and i just have the weekend we do not know by whom and ijust have to say, the police have nothing to go on. follow that. that's it for the papers for now. 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 dot co uk forward slash papers — and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you.
