(00v) conservative leadership contenders set out their approaches )conservative leadership contenders set out their approaches to dealing with the economic downturn forecast by the bank of england. the palestinian health ministry says 15 palestinians have been killed in the gaza strip, where the israeli military is targeting members of the palestinian group islamichhad. a bus carrying roman catholic pilgrims has crashed in northern croatia, killing 12 polish people and injuring more than 30 others.

the newspapers are in. with me are the political commentatorjo phillips, and nigel nelson, who's political editor of the sunday mirror and sunday people. let's have a quick look at a few of the pages. the sunday express leads with conservative leadership candidate rishi sunak vowing to jail child groomers for life. former labour prime minister gordon brown tells the observer that both tory leadership hopefuls should should agree to hold an emergency budget to help with the cost of living crisis. the sunday telegraph has a picture of the tearful family of archie battersbee who died earlier today. the sunday times says rishi sunak has pledged billions to help ease the cost of living crisis. the sunday mirror reports on a warning from the nspcc that schoolgirls are being groomed on tiktok. the sun continues to discuss the fallout of the wagatha christie trial. and finally, britain faces an �*eco meltdown�* as the heatwave looms,

according to the sunday people. we're going to start with the sunday telegraph. the picture there, i think will stay imprinted on many people's minds of archie's mum and family at an unbelievable fight to try and get what they wanted for their child. yes, holly did absolutely everything she could and this is an absolutely heartbreaking case. and it may be a result of we should look at the way that we actually do deal with tragic cases like this, but i have to say i'm not quite sure how. quite clearly, in situations like this, you need some discretion of people to make those awful decisions. i can't think who else, apart from

judges, because the primary purpose behind it must be to be whatever is in the best interest of the child. i was speaking to a charity earlier on bbc news. the hell that parents go through and ending up in court is very rare, but it does happen. there are reminders of, there are people at the hospitals who will be working with the family trying to reassure them, but they said ending up in court needs to be avoided. weill. them, but they said ending up in court needs to be avoided. well, i think that is _ court needs to be avoided. well, i think that is true, _ court needs to be avoided. well, i think that is true, but _ court needs to be avoided. well, i think that is true, but i _ court needs to be avoided. well, i think that is true, but i think - court needs to be avoided. well, i think that is true, but i think the l think that is true, but i think the charity- -- _ think that is true, but i think the charity- -- i _ think that is true, but i think the charity... i doubt they mention the medical staff because for anybody working _ medical staff because for anybody working in the hospital setting, who will have _ working in the hospital setting, who will have also been through not the

minister, but liz truss does and so does rishi sunak. the sunday telegraph focusing on liz truss's is out to rush through her tax cost. what seems to be happening with both candidates is as the days go on, they sort of keep upping the ante. so, when we started with reasonable promises to begin with, we just seem to be a bit more extreme. what liz truss is talking about is she's already said that she wants to scrap the national insurance rise. the way that would've worked to be with the budget in september and the increase would've gone next april, saving about £170. now she wants to advance this by six months, so to bring it it almost immediately after an emergency budget, and that means

people will get the benefit in november. this is the battleground — when it comes down to the 160,000 tory voters out there who are members of the party, they've got to decide whether liz truss's tax—cutting proposals are realistic or better, if rishi sunak says, to burst upon them and get inflation under control first.— burst upon them and get inflation under control first. that's what the sunday times _ under control first. that's what the sunday times is _ under control first. that's what the sunday times is focusing _ under control first. that's what the sunday times is focusing on. - under control first. that's what the sunday times is focusing on. so, l sunday times is focusing on. so, you've got one candidate who is not keen at all on hand at —— hand—outs and another who is. keen at all on hand at -- hand-outs and another who is.— keen at all on hand at -- hand-outs and another who is. yes, and i think when rishi — and another who is. yes, and i think when rishi sunak _ and another who is. yes, and i think when rishi sunak was _ and another who is. yes, and i think when rishi sunak was chancellor, i and another who is. yes, and i think. when rishi sunak was chancellor, the way he _ when rishi sunak was chancellor, the way he acted during covid, very quickly, — way he acted during covid, very quickly, and it was without doubt a huge _ quickly, and it was without doubt a huge benefit lots of people with the furlough _ huge benefit lots of people with the furlough scheme and bounce back

i don't know if you can answer this, but one wonders... we know rishi sunak has access to the books, but how much they know that how much money is available, particularly in government coffers? you wonder if these can always be seen through how they would like to see them. yes. these can always be seen through how they would like to see them.— they would like to see them. yes, to see if they're — they would like to see them. yes, to see if they're able _ they would like to see them. yes, to see if they're able to _ they would like to see them. yes, to see if they're able to fulfil— they would like to see them. yes, to see if they're able to fulfil their - see if they're able to fulfil their promises because they're getting ever more expensive. what i would say is about both is that rishi sunak was very recently in cabinet and held the nation... liz truss still is in cabinet. 0ne and held the nation... liz truss still is in cabinet. one would hope they have a pretty good idea of what they have a pretty good idea of what the government would look like. the real question comes onto which way you do it. do you get a hand out? do you do it. do you get a hand out? do you give tax cuts? we're still

suffering from the aftermath of covid. the reason we have high inflation is because supply chains were disrupted. that's been exacerbated by the ukrainian war. then we've got to china going into a slowdown because of their extreme zero covert policies, and that's causing a worldwide recession —— covid policies. when rishi sunak talks about this, in a sense, it continues what he was doing when covid was on. probably, that's the right thing to do if you can do it in a non—inflationary way by targeting people's bills as people are getting help with costs now. do you think we will see an emergency budget which is what gordon brown is suggesting? i budget which is what gordon brown is su: arestin ? ~' ,, budget which is what gordon brown is su~estin~? ~ ,, , suggesting? i think liz truss is sort of suggesting _ suggesting? i think liz truss is sort of suggesting that - suggesting? i think liz truss is sort of suggesting that there i suggesting? i think liz truss is - sort of suggesting that there would be sort of suggesting that there would he an— sort of suggesting that there would

people. meanwhile, a reminder. on the sunday times, there are other problems the new prime minister will have to deal with, and it's almost a year since we pulled out of afghanistan. this is a story about young girls who've been denied education since things are beginning to change. but they're asking the world not to forget about their education. i asking the world not to forget about their education.— their education. i found this a really moving story. - their education. i found this a really moving story. we - their education. i found this a really moving story. we have | their education. i found this a - really moving story. we have indeed forgotten a bit about afghanistan. we've been concentrating too much on ukraine. it was only a year ago that alabama took over, and what the story is is an open letter —— that the taliban took over. secretly attending classes in kabul because they aren't allowed by the taliban to go to school. there's one i think is incredibly important point by one of these girls who wants to be a

doctor. the taliban and insists that only women doctors can treat women patients. this young woman points out, if they can't get an education, how will there ever be women doctors? which is a really, really good point, and one rather hopes the taliban might take that to heart. you also have to remember is not just kids desperately trying to get to school, some of them in secret schools. there are many women who had fantastic jobs as journalists and politicians, and are now told to stay at home. it's not a story that has gone away. it’s stay at home. it's not a story that has gone away-— has gone away. it's not. it's very important — has gone away. it's not. it's very important that — has gone away. it's not. it's very important that people _ has gone away. it's not. it's very important that people like - has gone away. it's not. it's very i important that people like christine correspondents keep bringing the story— correspondents keep bringing the story to _ correspondents keep bringing the story to our minds. we're worried about— story to our minds. we're worried about other— story to our minds. we're worried about other issues. actually, there

month. we're now facing a drought with a hosepipe ban all over the place. i get my host pat —— hosepipe ban on friday. i would rather see one did not get water out of my top, so i'm not against something like that. however, i'd also like to see the water companies do more about the water companies do more about the amount of water they waste by not plugging the leaks that they should be doing. trier? not plugging the leaks that they should be doing.— not plugging the leaks that they should be doinu. , , , �* should be doing. very briefly, we're running out — should be doing. very briefly, we're running out of _ should be doing. very briefly, we're running out of time. _ should be doing. very briefly, we're running out of time. the _ should be doing. very briefly, we're running out of time. the sunday - running out of time. the sunday people. dedicated to what looks like the start of months of discontent. people getting angry about the heat, angry about the cost of living. britain faces eco—meltdown, says the sunday people. eco-meltdown, says the sunday peole. , , :, eco-meltdown, says the sunday peole. , ., , eco-meltdown, says the sunday peole. , ,., ., , eco-meltdown, says the sunday peole. , ., g , people. this is a group called just sto ed people. this is a group called just stepped 0il- _ people. this is a group called just stopped oil. they _ people. this is a group called just stopped oil. they claim _ people. this is a group called just stopped oil. they claim it's -
