Author. Meet the author. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are anne ashworth, associate editor of the times and the bonnie greer, the playwright and columnist for the new european newspaper. Well be having a chat in the moment. Tomorrows front pages. The sunday express reports that rogue Estate Agents are being targeted under tough plans drawn up by the government. The sunday times carries a picture of a catalan woman who joined other hundreds and thousands of protesters in barcelona, to demonstrate against madrids decision to place the region under Central Government control. The sunday telegraph claims theresa may is set to make concessions on universal credit, amid fears it could become her poll tax. The Observer Says spain has been plunged into crisis after the prime minister, mariano rajoy, announced that he was stripping catalonia of its autonomy and imposing direct rule from madrid in a bid to crush the regional leaderships move to secede. So, lets begin. Ladies, we are going to start off with the telegraph. Bonnie do you want to start that offer us . Make plots welfare climb down. Start that offer us . Make plots welfare climbdown. Universal credit was supposed to be rolled out a week or 0 was supposed to be rolled out a week or so ago was supposed to be rolled out a week orso ago and, was supposed to be rolled out a week or so ago and, no, it was going to be delayed, and now they are telling her to bring it out fast because of the amount of money. It is the six week waiting time which is being considered at the silly al aqsa . It is causing people so much hardship, and they may be reducing it to a month. But the problem is the treasury. It will cause the treasury a lot of money if it happens sooner than already planned. Universal credit was David Camerons flagship under iain duncan smith, this thing has crashed and computers, it has cost billions. And, now, here we are with this. People are depending on it. A bit of what donald trump is doing in america. If she doesnt get this out in time for people, she has been awarded this could be her poll tax, and we know what that means. She is facing a backbench rebellion over this just she is facing a backbench rebellion over thisjust at the she is facing a backbench rebellion over this just at the time she she is facing a backbench rebellion over thisjust at the time she is perceived to be weak and i think it will be an interesting budget coming up will be an interesting budget coming up on novemberthe will be an interesting budget coming up on november the 22nd because there will have to be an announcement on universal credit because even people who physically would sometimes use the words scroungers, people who dont disagree with the benefit system, fundamentally, think it is operating in an unfairway. Fundamentally, think it is operating in an unfair way. The conservatives did to be careful right now because what is happening with brexit. Now this. Peoples nerves are frayed and they need something to happen, it has to be positive, it has to be quick, and they dont really want to hear it. A huge pressure on the chancellor to make so many things right, will he be able to do so given the amount of money he will need to spend on this and other measures . Any suggestions, he was saying that people would like to put forward, he says that they need to include how they would be funded. Well, that is they would be funded. Well, that is the way it should always be. But the fa ct the way it should always be. But the fact that he actually have to announce it is what is scary because the other part of it, he has to make a contingency for brexit, we dont know what the impact statement will be. We are in this limbo whether domestic situation is at a point where people want something to happen, and he has got to be able to hold the deficit down. They are almost doing that but there are all kinds of problems. How can they dismantle it at this stage . It was replacing six different benefits and was seen as replacing six different benefits and was seen as the way to get people back into work. It cant be scrapped, but it is floundering. We will stay with the figures and turn to the observer. Austerity put Public Workers below the private sector but more pressure for philip hammond. He will have to find more Public Sector pay increase. It seems as though we have always thought that people in the Public Sector and being more missions than others, arguably, on pay growth. And, now, they are falling behind. It is something that has been happening to all workers. Few peoples wages are rising in line with inflation. People are feeling squeezed. What a great weight of expectation on hammond. But this is across the world. Wages have not risen for people. People are starting to really notice and feel that this is happening. Any government, degree this one, has to address the fact that they have to raise Public Sector pay. How will they do it . That they have to raise Public Sector pay. How will they do mm will also come at a time when we are likely to see interest break rises. One of the way people have seen. If there started been restrictions on borrowing they become more expensive, that combined with stag na nt expensive, that combined with stagnant wages is going to increased demands for more concessions in the budget. But the Interest Rate has to go budget. But the Interest Rate has to 9 up budget. But the Interest Rate has to go up because part of it being down is part of the quantitative easing, pa rt is part of the quantitative easing, part of what happened after the crisis. The pound really needs, because it is going down, the pound really needs that feeling from the central bank that it is a Stable Currency and that it can continue, and raising Interest Rates is the signal to the market that the central bank has confidence in the currency. There is likely to be an Interest Rate rise as early as next month. November 22, the Interest Rate rise as early as next month. November22, the budget. It is an unenviable task. It is being ruled as michael rake for the chancellor after the partys disastrous performance in the general election. And he cant afford any u turns. General election. And he cant afford any uturns. We stay with the observer. Our lead story are the events in spain, catalonia. We dont quite know what mr puigdemont has declared. Were waiting for this declaration of independence but he is not quite going for it. What does he want for catalonia . He wants independence. The problem is, according to spanish law, this is an illegal referendum. According to spanish law, the government in spain has the right, under law, to declare it now and for it, which it has, and to bring, to take away rule, to take away independent rule. The problem is that for the eu, which isnt really technically a problem, but it is philosophically a problem, what is philosophically a problem, what is going to happen to this region . Catalonia is extremely successful. If it is smashed by the central and, what happens now . |j if it is smashed by the central and, what happens now . I do not understand actually what form he seizes independence taking. We know it is already having a disastrous Economic Impact on catalonia. Businesses are moving out, tourism is falling, and it is having a wider impact on the whole of the spanish economy. Maybe it is because government timers, concentrated on that. Consumer confidence is dropping. Mr rajoy needs to move or his position could be in peril. Has he thought it through . his position could be in peril. Has he thought it through . I think he has. It is a simple and clear vision, it is how you implement it,. He is not spelling out exactly exactly what bright and glorious future he is offering to the catalonians. The sunbaked times, labour to back tory rebels on brexit. Goodness. Brexit, it is the only show in town and is directing attention from other things that need it but it looks as if the remainers are going to form a cohort are less changes are made in. Kia starmer is doing his lines in the stand sand,. Starmer is doing his lines in the stand sand,. No matter what people are saying, the talks are really going that well, mainly because the uk is going in with a negotiating position, the eu is not negotiating, the eu just was to know, what are you going to do . The uk things it is a negotiating position and there is a deadlock, what labour is proposing, id how this will work, but a series of measures in order to move this forward. Of course, if labour then becomes involved, on a big active level, then there is going to be more confusion because the eu has got to governments possibly that it is dealing with. Although they were very supportive of jeremy is dealing with. Although they were very supportive ofjeremy corbyn who came to brussels to speak to another group, really welcomed there. They are very interested in what labour has to say but from the eu side. Before we move on to children and gambling, what did you both make of the speeches that we heard on friday . They seem to be supporting theresa may. Macron and merkel are circling around her because it is in the eus interest to have a weaker leader negotiating on behalf of written. What they fear now, the 27 other countries is that mrs may could fall and there would be a hard line brexiteer replacing her, and asked the negotiations would become even and asked the negotiations would become even more and asked the negotiations would become even more difficult than they currently are. So, they are seeing this is the moment to give a little, ta ke this is the moment to give a little, take a little, even though macron is now saying that he winks that the price of exit should be 40 ilion euros rather than 20 billion, which seems to be what we are plunging four. The United Kingdom have said it was ready to go. The eu cant say you cant, but the money is about trade, it is not about a thing else. If the uk wants a trading relationship with the eu, and the eu says fine, this is what has to happen, if you dont want the trading relationship, it is up to you. The sunday times, gambling sites are forced to stop year in children. 450,000 children are readily on gambling sites, being viewed in by cartoon characters, and we we re viewed in by cartoon characters, and we were appalled when we read this story. There has been. The Advertising Authority and gambling watchdog has written to these companies havent immediately with dawn these sites which are advertising childrens cartoons. They are invested in creating a generation of gambling is, and gambling can be a disease, so it is creating a generation of people who get online and play and try and win money, it is very, very dangerous. It is absolutely pernicious. Did you find the children were having to pay . Its not properly explained how they are paying to go on the sites. They are obviously achieving it because as i said, nearly half a million children and doing this. This adds to the other abuses of these industry, like fixed odd betting terms. If you grow up in a household where scratchcards, during the lottery, all that is a to attlee make ends meet, if that looks normal, if that is normalised behaviour for children, that they are going to copy it. Might children, we have a family laptop and every time something is downloaded, we can see it. But children are so tech savvy. Lets turn to the express. Rogue agents gazumping.
