hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the financial times chief feature writer, henry mance, and the uk correspondent at french broadcaster france 2a and president of the foreign press association, benedicte paviot. most of tomorrow's front pages are now in. let's start with the metro. it says borisjohnson‘s brexit deal will again be put to parliament, amid rising confidence in number 10 that he has the numbers to get it through. the same story is in the financial times. the newspaper has crunched the numbers, and suggests the government is on course to win by a majority of five. but not so fast — the times says labour is planning to hijack borisjohnson‘s deal, with amendments for a second referendum and customs union with the eu.

and the daily mail says there is fury in number 10 at those plans by labour to try and amend the brexit deal and push another referendum. "how dare they?", asks the express, which says anger is boiling over after senior labour figures vowed the party would call for another public vote. a different story in the mirror. it says workers at amazon's biggest uk warehouse are accusing their managers of "modern slavery". and the sun leads with comments made by prince harry in a tv documentary — which, the newspaper claims, suggest a "growing rift" between him and his brother, prince william. so a varied set of front pages, but brexit dominating most. let's see what our reviewers make of it all. let's begin with the times, as downing street says labour is trying to stop brexit, henry. how? this is an attack on jeremy to stop brexit, henry. how? this is an attack onjeremy corbyn and the labour party for effectively not going along with the government's exit deal. well, that is the government does. and we don't think

we are going to get a vote on monday on the exit deal but come on tuesday, some legislation will be put forward that puts that exit deal into law, boris johnson put forward that puts that exit deal into law, borisjohnson wants to get it through in a week, labour will come forward and say, oh, we will back it, give us a referendum, but if you promise to give us a customs union. so there could be a split. borisjohnson thinks he's got the numbers for his deal, but there may also be a majority for a customs union, so that's a slightly softer brexit. before we talk about the wider ideas further down the track, why might the speaker not allow a meaningful vote? there is a principle of parliamentary procedure which is, if you've already voted on something once, you can't vote on the same thing again unless circumstances have changed. on saturday, we had an emergency

sitting where the commons decided not to back boris johnson's sitting where the commons decided not to back borisjohnson‘s deal, where they asked him to get an extension from the eu, possibly three months, just so there is not the risk of a no—deal brexit if something goes wrong in the next few days. and now they've done that, the procedure is they can't... days. and now they've done that, the procedure is they can't. .. john bercow will say, why are we here ain? bercow will say, why are we here again? we sat in emergency sitting on saturday, so why are we coming back again on monday? once again, john bercow, the outgoing speaker, who will be standing down october 31, is going to play an important role here, and tory eurosceptics are absolutely furious. quote the times, they say, if he does indeed stop that, it would be an abuse of power. and there is fury in downing street

because it seems that this is what labour wants to do it is being seen as being able to kill the prime minister's deal, and could lead him with no choice but to accept an extension. what is it, extension rebellion? and make a renewed push for a general election. so this is all part of the narrative of boris johnson preparing or continuing, as some would see it, blaming mps if britain does not believe the eu by october the 31st, which he says he is adamant to do. and he is facing, the telegraph say, a rebel alliance, and a guerrilla war over votes. the telegraph say, a rebel alliance, and a guerrilla war over votesm seems the new rebel alliance, the newish one, would be those dup, feeling very unloved, mps, who boris johnson at the last minute last week

decided he could dispense with their ten votes, and indeed he and his team still think they have the numbers if they have a chance to put that meaningful vote to mps, and it seems that certainly keir starmer this morning on the andrew marr programme made it very clear that the labour pa rty's programme made it very clear that the labour party's door is open to talk to the dup. interesting, because it isn't on the confidence and supply side, but the confidence and supply side, but the confidence and supply side, but the confidence and supply would seem to be for possibly the rebel alliance, so the manoeuvring that's going to go on on monday and tuesday in parliament and outside are going to be shot i think brexit, destination unknown, because we have unknowns, known unknowns, and a lot of going into places we never knew we'd be going into. one other thing, the reason is the dup is unhappy, is this idea down the irish sea which would treat northern ireland differently from the rest of

the uk, which the dup had always said they would not be in favour of, so said they would not be in favour of, so they've been quite consistent in that respect. yes, and boris johnson told them that he wouldn't accept any such thing, so i think they feel they have been betrayed very quickly by the prime minister, so therefore they are forced to ally with people that they have very little in common with instinctively, jeremy corbyn, a supporter of a united ireland, the snp, who want to break up part of the uk, so completely against the dup's aims. so this is a new formation of forces and it remains to be seen whether they can agree on anything. a customs union would solve some of the dup's problems, in a way, because it would lessen the feeling up brexit and the checks would be greatly reduced. and there is of course being —— a case being

heard in the court session to do with an erg amendment from a year or so with an erg amendment from a year or so ago, to do with the fact that northern ireland meant to be treated the same as the rest of the country? i don't think i'm a cross that one. i thought you were going to refer to the joanna cherry case, which been left open, and they will indeed be in the court of session, the highest civilian court in scotland, about the fact that boris johnson did write the letter asking for an extension, so he respected, if you want, the letter of the law, but did he respect the spirit of the law by writing another letter and sending it saying that he doesn't want an extension? the fact is it's being treated by the eu, he said that to donald tusk... he's said he's canvassing opinion. it's being treated as an additional

communication by the british prime minister, so it is a request, signed or unsigned, asking for an extension untiljanuary or unsigned, asking for an extension until january 2020. or unsigned, asking for an extension untiljanuary 2020. metro, now we have the numbers. this is boris johnson thinking that he is looking and sounding more confident about it than a few days ago. yes on eight losses out of eight in terms of commons votes. there was a quote from dominic raab, the brexit secretary, even less dramatic, which is that, we seem to have the numbers. the ft reckons there was a majority of five. i saw another tally in the guardian which was that borisjohnson still needed one more vote to be sure of victory. those numbers could change, and downing street are in a position that theresa may was certainly never in, much closer to getting brexit over the line. the ft, johnson sticks to brexit deal as faith rises in westminster victory, but as before people are starting to attach

amendments. this story, like others, makes the point that the government doesn't really think there will be a vote on monday, it thinksjohn bercow will rule it out, but then come the amendments and then, i think, the opposition potentially have the ability of getting the dup on board and also some of those stories that are prepared to back boris johnson‘s stories that are prepared to back borisjohnson‘s deal stories that are prepared to back boris johnson‘s deal but would really like less economic disruption. but they got to talk it up. they are not going to say they are not there. exactly, and the sat —— the are not there. exactly, and the sat -- the ft are not there. exactly, and the sat —— the ft also says it's on a knife edge. everybody's —— the ft also says it's on a knife edge. eve rybody's crunching —— the ft also says it's on a knife edge. everybody's crunching numbers and anything could intervene. you have a meaningful chat with somebody... and we saw that theresa may, that was an extraordinary thing to see, theresa may really trying to get people tojoin her in the yes lobby the other day and, you know, it was also interesting to see her

first major intervention about this. but it is deja vu, she said, but will it, won't it, when will it or won't it? if the eu is minded to grant an extension, and it doesn't wa nt grant an extension, and it doesn't want to be seen to be interfering with what is internal, but it has to be pointed out that borisjohnson, for succeeding when many people thought it was mission impossible to get a new brexit deal, he got that, but he also confidently predicted to angela merkel and others, donald tusk, that he was confident he would get this through on saturday, so from the eu27 countries this is another british prime minister, for all the niceties that were going on oi'i all the niceties that were going on on thursday evening in brussels, who was confident on thursday but who suffered a serious setback on saturday, and they will be watching

very carefully and not wanting to interfere. but, by the end of the week, certainly, ithink interfere. but, by the end of the week, certainly, i think they will be announcing something. that's all lam prepared be announcing something. that's all i am prepared to commit to! even thatis i am prepared to commit to! even that is quite definitive. lets go back to the telegraph. a picture of the duchess of sussex, and she's been talking in a documentary about the struggle she has been under such scrutiny in this country for top yes, meghan and harry feel like they've been on the receiving end of a brutal press, and this was their attempt to get their side of the story out, by speaking to itv, and a few notable lines from this. one is that meghan is really sort of making clear her exasperation, saying that surviving is not enough, she needs more than this. she mentions that some of her british friends, when she was dating prince harry, said,

don't go through with this, don't get serious, don't marry him because the tabloids will destroy your life, and didn't believe them because, even as actor in the us, she hadn't had that experience, she wasn't a subject of tabloid lies. and i think they are looking for a timeout in terms of an extended period away from royal duties, up to six weeks, in the uk and us, and possiblya rebalancing of where they spend time and how they make themselves available. the queen mother always used to say, never complain, never explain, so to see members of the royal family in documentaries like this is still unusual, isn't it? yes, andl this is still unusual, isn't it? yes, and i think it will have echoes of the famous panorama with diana, but it's actually very different. so far, nobody is divorcing. but the fa ct of far, nobody is divorcing. but the fact of the matter is, there are two things, the fact that the duchess has said she has really tried to adopt the british stiff upper lip,

before concluding it was, quote, internally really damaging. i think that will set a lot of tongues wagging. what the queen has been, in a sense, exemplary, she doesn't comment, and be fascinating to hear what her advice would be —— it would be fascinating to hear what her advice would be, but are they asking for and listening to advice? who is advising them? and are they listening? and the other thing is that, when meghan talks about the fa ct that, when meghan talks about the fact that she doesn't object to fair scrutiny, she is claiming that this is, quote, a different beast, i never thought this would be easy but i thought it would be fair. you know, they are suing the sun, the daily mirror, mirror, and this is a very difficult narrative. i don't think it will please everybody to see a woman was clearly in turmoil,

a husband, and we now have confirmation from this documentary, quite shocking in a way to hear harry acknowledge the rift with his brother. bad blood brothers, harry, we are different paths. i love him dearly but, like all brothers, you have good and bad days. even though prince william is unlikely to become king any time soon or perhaps even decades, it's clear they have different trajectories in that sense. i interviewed the editor of the daily mail a few weeks ago and i said, well, why do meghan and harry get such a bad press? he was talking about their habit of keeping things secret, the godparents to archie, where archie was going to be born. one thing you can't criticise them 110w one thing you can't criticise them now is not giving the press enough to write about, because here they are on the front of the papers, and they are not even first or second in they are not even first or second in the line to the throne. they've done their bit for press coverage. the

back page of the guardian, and wales beating france 20—19. back page of the guardian, and wales beating france 20-19. they came from behind, didn't deserve to win, but they won largely because of this elbow we see pictured, a french forward going a bit hot—headed and carriageway, and wales will now have their first chance of going into the rugby world cup final. you will be happy to cheer for england next week. i can manage that, i am half french, half british. plan chemical disappointing for you though? yes, because france were very strong, and two tries didn't get converted, but the welsh won fairly and squarely, and congratulations to them, and congratulations to the japanese, who we re really congratulations to the japanese, who were really quite impressive, i think. do you cheer in french when you are watching france play?|j don't even
