11:32 pm
with me are the political commentator, jo phillips and the sunday mirror and sunday people's political editor, nigel nelson. we will chat in a moment. most of tomorrow's front pages are already in. a rousing image and headline for england rugby fans tops the sunday telegraph. it also claims that an establishment stitch up is protecting speakerjohn bercow from a bullying investigation. the observer says brexit means the uk could be removed from the organisation that's leading international inquiries into the 39 people who died on a lorry in essex. the mail on sunday has carried out undercover investigation, in which its reporter spoke to a people smuggler based in the uk. comments made byjustin welby about borisjohnson‘s use of inflammatory language is the sunday times‘ lead. a claim from the prime minister that the eu is holding britain
11:33 pm
hostage over brexit is the sunday express‘ headline. and the daily star has reminiscent thoughts from suggs, who compares skirmishes as a football hooligan to the battle of agincourt. so, let's begin. we'll we‘ ll start we'll start off with the observer and the migrant deaths. what is that update? well, they are looking at the future effects of this and what they are saying is that the uk, because of brexit, faces being excluded from the eu's antitrafficking unit, now, what this is, this is a shared intelligence organisation and we co—operate with them. it's all part of europol and there's been a huge argument about whether or not we will have membership of it after 2020. this is assuming there is a brexit deal, and
11:34 pm
we may be thrown out earlier than that. but if there is a brexit deal, there is a question about whether or not we can keep our membership after the transition period ending in 2020. and, it is important that we do. but it is a, it is an eu organisation and obviously it's one of the many that we may not have access to after brexit. well, i think as nigel said, it's one of these, this terrible charge of the has shown something that goes on behind the scene —— terrible tragedy, that we are obviously not aware of all the time, but people trafficking happening all across the world, it isn't confined to europe but it is ending up in europe and quite often ending up in britain. if you've got one unit that is co—ordinating everything and you've got that ability for the boss, to act on it, lorries travelling thousands and thousands of miles and
11:35 pm
changing cargo and picking people up and what have you, it's really important. this is a problem. this tragedy, as some people are saying, is the tip of the iceberg because we have no idea how many to get through successfully. on that note, let's turn to the telegraph because the report there is there could have been two other trucks. exactly, in this convoy. so we know 39 people lost their lives in the lorry that was discovered in essex and is now being suggested, as you say, there we re being suggested, as you say, there were another two lorries which could have the same number of people inside. what has happened to them, whether they have arrived or are still en route, we don't know. that it is one hell of a job for the police and the agency is investigating this. there is an investigation taking place in saint brooklyn as well? we have no idea
11:36 pm
right now how many trucks are bringing in people like this. 0bviously bringing in people like this. obviously we will now start looking at these lorries much more mostly, because it's a great way to bring in people in the sense you can bring an awful lot in for a start, and they tend not to be tampered with because they are freezer lorries, you can't open them, even the driver can't open them, even the driver can't open it up. so it's an ideal way of doing it except if you are inside and suffocate or freeze to death. but there are so many different ways people are now using them because it's big business. if you are in central europe and you've managed to reach that far, £6,000 will buy you a trip into britain. was a buy that enough times and it's a huge kind of game. it's really modern day slavery. exactly. and on the sunday times. borisjohnson
11:37 pm
slavery. exactly. and on the sunday times. boris johnson pouring slavery. exactly. and on the sunday times. borisjohnson pouring petrol on divided britain. not literally, but what the archbishop is arguing that boris johnson but what the archbishop is arguing that borisjohnson is using inflammatory language, and this is increasing divisions. i think it's probably a fair point because, well, imean probably a fair point because, well, i mean i've talked to people who are close protection officers and various politicians. he saying the threat against people is not so much the ones who make the threats, it's the ones who make the threats, it's the ones who read them on twitter or something like that. so people are actually, they didn't feel the major danger comes from someone who is saying something vile on twitter, but those people who are being inspired. so, saying borisjohnson is using inflammatory language and thatis is using inflammatory language and that is inspiring other people. is using inflammatory language and that is inspiring other peoplem it the place of the church to be involved in politics? i'm sure boris
11:38 pm
johnson and previous prime ministers have always said no. but all the time we have and we live in a christian country and we have the role of the archbishop of canterbury and the bishops that sit in the house of lords. they are part of the establishment. absolutely. there is very little point in having a religious leader, a spiritual leader, if they are going to criticise. we saw it before on issues of poverty, we have seen it on issues of other issues, the falklands war, various things in the invasion of iraq. archbishop welby, he has form on this because he actually chaired, i can't remember what it was cold but it was a debate on people's discussion —— cold mark. it was about brexit and the referendum. when you hear a prime
11:39 pm
minister saying to a woman mp that concerns about death threats and things aren't humbug, is not really very sensible or grown—up — and the thing i think is really striking from this is thatjustin thing i think is really striking from this is that justin welby on this issue in the sunday times has talked about winston churchill, who was known for years rather sharp putdowns, his witticisms, we all know borisjohnson's putdowns, his witticisms, we all know boris johnson's great hero putdowns, his witticisms, we all know borisjohnson's great hero is winston churchill, and this is an admonishment from the archbishop of going to be descent of the prime minister "you can't say that sort of thing that we now have social media. " thing that we now have social media." -- to the prime minister. i think the church to get more involved in politics. i don't think they get involved enough. certainly they get involved enough. certainly they have the right to as being an established church and obviously with welby and the bishops and some members being bishops in the house of lords, but they should be up to
11:40 pm
the task. i wonder if the public are bothered by this language?m appears not because there is an opinion poll which has put the tories on 40%, 16 points clear of labour on tories on 40%, 16 points clear of labouron 24, tories on 40%, 16 points clear of labour on 24, brexit party on 10%. academic research a couple of days ago was rather horrifyingly showing that people thought that it was ok for mps to suffer the slings and arrows of offensive behaviour and abuse and things as long as they, not the mps, the people, got their way. i think it is this polarisation that the remainers and the lever —— leavers want to have their way. and
11:41 pm
here we have a war between carrie murphy, she will be in charge of all of the election planning and john mcdonnell, the shadow chancellor. gary wants to getjeremy corbyn out, and garner as many votes as he can, john mcdonnell feels better to target certain seeds. and then there is the other difference thatjohn mcdonnell is very towards the idea ofa mcdonnell is very towards the idea of a referendum before you actually have an election. and of course the question will be on monday whether oi’ question will be on monday whether or not labour will vote for one, all of the indications are they probably won't and will abstain. butjo has mentioned a pole there, if that was the case, labour should vote for an election on monday. we saw that with theresa may, she called for an election and look where it got her.
11:42 pm
it's whetherjeremy corbyn pulls the same start a second time around. and we have had news this evening that the snp and the lib dems havejoined forces and contacted donald tusk for that deadline in january forces and contacted donald tusk for that deadline injanuary and they said they would go for an election on december nine. so it would be interesting to see how that is received in europe. let's go back to the telegraph, and still with the election, not enough time to our 16 —year—olds at a snap poll is called. cabinet ministers have been warned that it would say probably six months to put this into operation to bring in16 months to put this into operation to bring in 16 —year—olds so they would have the right to vote. it's a topic that has been going around for a northerly long time. i personally have changed my mind and i think they should have the right to vote. we know they had the right to vote in the scottish referendum. there
11:43 pm
are other people who would then go, they are children, they have no rights. but i think the things we are discussing, whether it is brexit, climate change, what are we talking about is going to have such long—term implications for these young people growing up, and certainly the young people that i work with are incredibly well informed and they feel very frustrated. get them in habit of voting. nigel? i think frustrated. get them in habit of voting. nigel? ithink the idea frustrated. get them in habit of voting. nigel? i think the idea that a 16—year—old is a much more capable voter than some 60 —year—olds is probably true. my concern really is that if you give the vote to 16 —year—olds, aren't you also saying they should be adults? and if you agree with that, if you work on the basis that they can decide who governs, they also ought to be able to choose about smoking, drinking, placing a bet, the kind of things they can't do at the moment until they can't do at the moment until they are 18. so one of the things i would like is a slightly, to step
11:44 pm
back slightly on this one and consider the implications of giving the vote to 16 —year—olds and look at those other laws and the other things they might be able to do. ok. we're going to and on fantastic shot of england at the rugby. absolutely smashing japan. antarctic because of england, 19, new zealand, seven. nobody thought england could do it because the all blacks are all—powerful, but we have next weekend to look forward to. either wales or south africa. 20,000 people, what a great following. it was lovely to see the fans responding like that. so, very quickly, very quickly, let's fit in the cartoon. it's in the telegraph. so it isa the cartoon. it's in the telegraph. so it is a cartoon, it's got a news reader, it's not you, british summertime and is and the caption is
11:45 pm
"the prime minister said he would rather die "the prime minister said he would ratherdie ina "the prime minister said he would rather die in a ditch than put his clocks back by one hour." but we will be putting our clocks back by one hour tomorrow. one o'clock ought to look like? two o'clock. that is it for the papers denied. —— tonight. hello and welcome to the film review on bbc news. to take us through this week's cinema releases is mark kermode. hello, mark. hi. we have a very, very interesting week, we have the last black man
