prices around the world. are your hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lucy beresford, who is a broadcaster, and sam lister, the political editor of the daily express. hello again to you both. just a quick look through some of those front pages to give you a flavour of what you'll build waking up to. "movin�* on up — or is liz movin�* on out?" the lyrics from m people's hit song are not lost on the metro, as the paper questions the prime minister's political future. us hits out at oil cuts that "align opec with russia," says the ft, as production is slashed

by two million barrels a day. the i has cabinet rebellion growing, and reports on ministers pressurising the pm to reverse plans to squeeze benefits. "income taxes to rise by £21 billion despite budget," says the telegraph. the guardian says the embattled pm warns of stormy days and tries to unite mps in opposition to what she calls an "anti—growth coalition". "defiant liz takes fight to her critics," is the mail's lead. "stop the killer dogs," campaigns the mirror, writing about a wave of dangerous attacks this year. and in the sun, "manc food is manky" — the paper's reporting

on controversial comments made by city player ilkay gundogan�*s partner. so that was a little overview of some of the front pages. we will start off, lucian sam — i've lost my list, i'll start with the metro, —— lucian sam. "moving on up or moving on out?" . �* , lucian sam. "moving on up or moving on out?“ . �*, , ., , on out?" that's the question, my instinct is — on out?" that's the question, my instinct is that _ on out?" that's the question, my instinct is that she'll _ on out?" that's the question, my instinct is that she'll be - on out?" that's the question, my instinct is that she'll be sticking l instinct is that she'll be sticking put for now. but we've seen such turbulence over the last few years, it's very difficult to make absolutely nailed down predictions. but it was a big day for her today, she's obviously had a terrible week at the party confidence, or conference with the infighting that's been happening there. but she came out and looked pretty confident — she didn't come out looking like a

broken woman, we didn't have any debacles of times gone by like with theresa may where the set fell down. she came out composed, she had a very simple, clear message, it was quite short and direct. there was obviously a little bit of trouble with the greenpeace protesters, but i think that actually played to her advantage because it rallied the crowd behind her. but next week, we will see exactly what the mood of the party is once they've all gone away, had some sleep, had a bit of real life talks with people, come back to parliament on monday and we will see where the party is there, work out where this is all going long term. work out where this is all going long term-— work out where this is all going lona term. , ., ,, ~' long term. lucy, do you think her osition long term. lucy, do you think her position is safe? _ long term. lucy, do you think her position is safe? only _ long term. lucy, do you think her position is safe? only because i long term. lucy, do you think her| position is safe? only because the party can't afford the damage that would be wrought if they had a new

do? �* , . , , , . do? it'll be incredibly difficult it's a really — do? it'll be incredibly difficult it's a really tight _ do? it'll be incredibly difficult it's a really tight rope - do? it'll be incredibly difficult i it's a really tight rope scenario. you can't let them carry on like they've been doing, clearly. cabinet ministers should not be freelancing to the media in the way they have been doing this week. in terms of getting with the government, its not help her for the getting with the government, its not help herfor the prime minister. social have to find some way of addressing that. but the issue is if you go too hard, there were suggestions at the start of the week that backbench rebels would face the whip like borisjohnson did when he came to power, those on the remain side causing problems lost the whip. we've seen that language tempered by the week, i think that would be quite a tricky thing to do because all you'll do is pack people into a

corner. some big figures there like michael gove and grant shapps have been quite on the fringes this week. if you get those as the rebel leaders — they've got grant shapps's spreadsheet, he keeps numbers on who supports who, who is upset about what — they could be quite organised quite quickly and that would be a real problem for the prime minister. so it really is quite tricky. and the big hurdle she has next is what to do about benefits, how do you increase benefits in the next financial year? increase benefits in the next financialyear? do increase benefits in the next financial year? do you link them to inflation, which obviously is running high at the moment? you could end up with about a 10% increase in benefits payments, or do you link them to the average increase in earnings? she's more minded to go that way, because i think the argument she would make is that actually by raising the wages

of people going to work, thus the fair way to do it. a lot of her cabinet colleagues have made clear that they wanted to be linked to inflation. does she really want to have a big row about this, or will shejust have to have a big row about this, or will she just have to take the financial hit? and it will be a big financial hit? and it will be a big financial hit clearly. she's in a difficult position and having a really big fight with the party after 45p tax rail, i think that would be quite tricky for her nap —— tax row. the tricky for her nap -- tax row. the front page _ tricky for her nap -- tax row. the front page of _ tricky for her nap -- tax row. the front page of the _ tricky for her nap —— tax row. the front page of the times are looking at the polls and also have nadine dories. i at the polls and also have nadine dories. ~ , , at the polls and also have nadine dories. ~' , , ., dories. i think it is 'ust nadine dories. i think it is 'ust nadine dories coming _ dories. i think it is 'ust nadine dories coming out _ dories. i think it isjust nadine dories coming out saying that| dories. i think it isjust nadine i dories coming out saying that the prime _ dories coming out saying that the prime minister needs to be careful, or else _ prime minister needs to be careful, or else there will be an electoral wipe-out, — or else there will be an electoral wipe—out, then you could argue, even though— wipe—out, then you could argue, even though she _ wipe—out, then you could argue, even though she had been a supporter of

"stormy days ahead," and i think you've both explained why she has stormy days ahead. so let's move on to the front page of the telegraph, and two stories to cover here. the first is what this means for us, the brits. "mortgage rates hit ia year high at 6%." "mortgage rates hit ia year high at 6%.“ ., , ., , "mortgage rates hit ia year high at 6%." ., , ., , .., "mortgage rates hit ia year high at 6%." kwasi kwarteng is calling bank duties to discuss _ 6%." kwasi kwarteng is calling bank duties to discuss this _ 6%." kwasi kwarteng is calling bank duties to discuss this to _ 6%." kwasi kwarteng is calling bank duties to discuss this to the - 6%." kwasi kwarteng is calling bank duties to discuss this to the sea - duties to discuss this to the sea with their plans are. but it's around 6% now for a two year mortgage deal — obviously that's far, far higher than we've been use to in recent times as a nation. i think it's interesting because ultimately the party has always been

a party of home ownership. if the cost of that homeownership suddenly starts rocketing, then you're breaking that link, and that's a huge issue for the government. what they say is actually interest rates are going up around the world, this is notjust a uk problem. i think that's an argument they want to make, but the issue is that in the uk, they've gone up faster and higher because of what's happened during that many budget. and that's the bit they need to address, really. but on a wider issue, for a very long time, interest rates were staggeringly low — great for savers and people with mortgages. and you do get this argument from people on the right and centre of how actually

money has been too cheap for too long. now you can see the economic argument they are, but it's very difficult to make to people whose mortgages will suddenly go up by hundreds and hundreds of pounds. so the theory might be great, but the actual practice of it, the actual pain people will feel is about a more difficult time to come. staying with the front _ more difficult time to come. staying with the front page _ more difficult time to come. staying with the front page of— more difficult time to come. staying with the front page of the _ more difficult time to come. staying with the front page of the daily - with the front page of the daily telegraph, lucy, a different subject but nonetheless a big story. what was once impossible is looking increasingly likely in terms of retaking territory, particularly crimea, by ukraine.— retaking territory, particularly crimea, by ukraine. yes, we know that in 2014, — crimea, by ukraine. yes, we know that in 2014, vladimir _ crimea, by ukraine. yes, we know that in 2014, vladimir putin - crimea, by ukraine. yes, we know. that in 201a, vladimir putin invaded that in 2014, vladimir putin invaded and annexed crimea, and the world didn't— and annexed crimea, and the world didn't really— and annexed crimea, and the world didn't really do much about that. but we've — didn't really do much about that. but we've got a very different tone now - _ but we've got a very different tone now — ukrainian forces seem to be advancing, they could retake crimea, it's felt, _

through — lots of suggestions that actually, all the way through this, he is unstable and in some kind of way where he's not making logical decisions, let's put it that way, he's making decisions that don't add up. so it's very difficult to actually respond when you can't work out how he might respond, because he's responding irrationally. so i think a great deal of care will clearly be taken with that, whether that symbolic gesture is worth the risk. ~ ., ., ,., . ,, that symbolic gesture is worth the risk. ~ ., ., . ,, ., risk. we went to go back to the front page _ risk. we went to go back to the front page of — risk. we went to go back to the front page of the _ risk. we went to go back to the front page of the daily - risk. we went to go back to the i front page of the daily telegraph, because that story at the bottom of the front page, "mothers must focus on self—care, says the princess of wales." lucy, i know you're interested in this, why? because i work with so _ interested in this, why? because i work with so many _ interested in this, why? because i work with so many mothers - interested in this, why? because i work with so many mothers who l interested in this, why? because i | work with so many mothers who do

of getting a conversation happening, isn't it? for that reason, this is why the rules can be useful in opening up a debate on issues that previously have been stigmatized for whatever reason, or people just don't like to talk about them, they think it's a matter to be kept behind closed doors. and i think thisjust shows that behind closed doors. and i think this just shows that actually, you can get people talking about these issues if somebody in the royal family does make a point of actually getting involved.— getting involved. there were two . uestions getting involved. there were two questions that _ getting involved. there were two questions that popped _ getting involved. there were two questions that popped into - getting involved. there were two questions that popped into my i getting involved. there were two i questions that popped into my mind when i popped through this — how do you circumnavigate that guilt of being selfish when you look at self—care for yourself, and what on earth is self—care? the self-care for yourself, and what on earth is self-care?— self-care for yourself, and what on earth is self-care? the word selfish could be broken _ earth is self-care? the word selfish could be broken up— earth is self-care? the word selfish could be broken up so _ earth is self-care? the word selfish could be broken up so that - earth is self-care? the word selfish could be broken up so that it - earth is self-care? the word selfish could be broken up so that it is - could be broken up so that it is self -ish. — could be broken up so that it is self —ish, that's howl could be broken up so that it is self —ish, that's how i talk to my clients but— self —ish, that's how i talk to my clients. but actually, the guilt is very much—
