Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are grace blakeley economics commentator at the new statesman and owen bennett, the head of politics at city am. Many of tomorrows front pages are already in and the cricket world cup is pictured across many of the front pages. All eyes on england as they meet new zealand in an historic final is the lead on tomorrows times.

Britains most notorious female paedophile is to be released from prison after showing remorse for abusing up to 30 infants in her care is on the front of the daily mail as the paper asks how can this bejustice . Lets begin with the independent and the royal navy on high alert. Iran threat to british ships. It is great when your guests help you, i picked up when your guests help you, i picked up the wrong paper. I will return it to you after i read a few bits. I do know what the story as i just had the wrong copy. First, a uk royal oil tanker at risk. Things got close with the royal navy having to intervene again. You now have british tankers in the area on high alert, this is the next stage in what has been an ongoing escalation of tension. It has really kicked off ina of tension. It has really kicked off in a sense since donald trump decided he was going to step away from the nuclear deal that was agreed with the run or was on the verge of being agreed a while ago. Since then you have seen this become a more and more sensitive situation. At the moment we havejeremy hunt arguing that this means we need to boost the royal navy. In the midst ofa boost the royal navy. In the midst of a leadership contest and arguing that britain needs to exercise hard power in order to secure it is in the world. This rhetoric that we see escalate in the context of the uk leadership contest and as donald trump gears up for another president ial election is just making a sensitive situation with around more dangerous. Politicians are prone to promising all sorts of things including military hardware when they are running for a position. It is the kind of thing that for the tory Party Membership who pride themselves on defence and that sort of thing, this will resonate well. But remember, iran was deemed to be taking oil to syria, in breach of eu resolutions about how we should treat syria as a pariah state now given the civil war there. Iran has been playing a part in this as well. But 71 active vessels in the navy at the moment andjeremy hunt vessels in the navy at the moment and jeremy hunt feels some good solid bit of kit in the navy, in britains arsenal will help them get extra votes and where there has been a lot of time focusing on soft warfare , a lot of time focusing on soft warfare, maybe it is now time to invest in equipment. It will take money and he will be asked whether that will come from because something will have to give. That will come from because something will have to givem that will come from because something will have to give. It is surprising that politicians come up with the money that they need for warand with the money that they need for war and conflict whereas there is a lwa ys war and conflict whereas there is always the question of how to pay for public services. They would argue that this was a deterrent. This is always the big question. A deterrent has to be a deterrent if you can use it. The question of whether the uk would go to war with the run is one we should be asking ourselves at the moment. If this escalates and the us goes to war with iran, will be uk follow them into that . Even the past history, we should be careful notjust about everything that leads up to that situation but, given the volatility that donald trump has shown in terms of his relationships with many different states around the world, whether that is with china or the issues in the economy or in the middle east, this is something that we really need to think about. Lets look at this other story from the telegraph. Prince charles setting a claimant deadline talking to the commonwealth. 18 critical months left to save humanity, it seems. To restore the balance of nature. And he thinks his position as the head of the commonwealth, that commonwealth countries should start taking their responsibility more seriously. I can see his point. There are a lot of emerging economies in the commonwealth and emerged other countries should invest in Green Technologies to help those emerging economies. And no matter what people say, that china is burning so much coal it does not make it different, but if we come up with innovation to make our economy greenerand saferand with innovation to make our economy greener and safer and more productive, i think china would follow suit. There must be a lot of money out there waiting to be invested in renewables and Green Technology because so many funds are trying to move away, investors and pensions are moving away from oil companies. I had a few pieces on this idea recently of the climate bubble which says that if we get either the divestments we need to stop Climate Change and you have a low fossil fuel Companies Whose share prices are massively overvalued. On the other hand if we get Climate Change you will get massive economic damage to various assets that leads, again, to many different assets and companies being destroyed. In both of those situations you have a problem at the moment where the valuations of Different Companies look very optimistic and that suggest we could be heading for some sort of crisis when investors start to realise that this is a problem and will soon start having an impact. In that sense, aside from the moral imperatives and the need to make sure that we are not destroying the planet to their strong economic imperative to do something quickly to mitigate some of these risks. That could be the thing, the bottom line pushes us in the direction that so many experts say we need to go. In the city at the moment there is a lot of thinking and speaking and speeches and engagement, to the effect that everything the city does needs to be seen through a prism of Climate Change and are the investments we make making the situation worse. I dont want to be all marxist about it and say it is all marxist about it and say it is all about the economy but i think that will be the ultimate driver. If we so you can that will be the ultimate driver. If we so you can make money off it then people will get behind it. Lets look now at the metro and the situation in regard to bullying in the house of commons. The house of horrors, its a. Another report by a barrister this time. A qc who has looked at parliamentary staff of mps and her report, which took 18 months to put together shines a light on some appalling behaviour from mps grabbing breast, bullying people, making them do domestic chores, not giving them time off, not paying them correctly, this kind of stuff. But the report does not name anyone and the question is what happens next . We have had reports like this before but that does not seem to be any institutional change did and what this qc says is that at the moment mps employ their staff and they are responsible for them there should be a centralised unit to oversee that. There needs to be oversight in the house to mps need to be accountable for their actions and ina to be accountable for their actions and in a whole host of issues it is currently hard and in a whole host of issues it is currently ha rd to and in a whole host of issues it is currently hard to hold them to account. There is the sense that this is a job for life and it is difficult to remove them for anything, incompetence or stuff like outright bullying. One of the ways parliamentary staff deal with this is by unionising and they do that in parts of the labour party and that is maybe one of the initial steps of they could take. Bullying and harassment is notorious and difficult in a lot of organisations today. And even to come forward in the first place takes courage in the face of the power imbalance between you and the person you are accusing. And especially if you do not want a ton of export down upon them, that you just want to flag something and you just want to flag something and you want to nip something in the blood. There is clearly a system in westminster that is broken. France and ukface westminster that is broken. France and uk face a showdown with the us over text tax plans. This has been something that governments have been wrestling with for a very long time. How do you get these tech giants to pay the right amount of tax if they are based somewhere else . Governments have been trying to get with grips with this problem. Tax Tech Companies are headquartered in the us and paying some tax there but they make money around the world. And one problem that many states have had is that facebook makes 100 million of revenue in the uk, of profit, sorry, but it can shift that using an an accounting technique to somewhere with a 0 tax rate avoiding uk Corporation Tax one of the mechanisms that states are now trying to use to get around this is to say we will look at your revenues rather than your profit. Rather than saying how much money have you made here in total and then tax at. And thatis here in total and then tax at. And that is what france in the uk are doing with this turnover tax. Of course, that means potentially creating disputes with the us which has had a big round of tax cuts aimed to stimulate investments and has created a miniboom on wall street as Companies Like alphabet and other Tech Companies put money out to shareholders. I expect this problem to continue and to create another front for the us to be fighting an economic battle on. To me it seems, possibly naively, an obvious thing to do. To tax the money that they make in this country. But it is such a low amount. The uk will only get £400 million a year by 2022. But isnt that a start . Once there is a precedent then they can ratchet up. No matter what laws you bring in, people are better at getting around them. It is trying to find a balance. And that is where you really need to have an international approach, as best you can. We know that america does not Like International agreements either ona Like International agreements either on a change or security and does not seem to like it here. And how does donald trump respond . He likes a trade war. A good Old Fashioned tariff war and it is flagged in this article that there could be tariffs imposed on french imports to make their economy her. If you dont get eve ryo ne their economy her. If you dont get everyone signed up they are not international standards, are they . This could be a step towards. There is a time for it. You take the revenue and you divide it based on a metric, based on turnover or profit or whatever else. And say each state can then tax the portion allocated to them. That requires a lot of negotiation and agreement. The eu tried to do something along those lines but it was shot down at the last minute. As long as there are a couple ofjurisdictions, last minute. As long as there are a couple of jurisdictions, the last minute. As long as there are a couple ofjurisdictions, the us, most notably, but some quite powerful states, not least of all ireland, making gains out of the system, it is very difficult to reach. Formulary apportionment. They have learned something. The times. Inmates to be handed sell keys. Cash bonuses and extra gym time for radical jail bonuses and extra gym time for radicaljail reforms. These are attached to behaviour. It sounds mad. Basically the silky is to give you more privacy. It is rewarding good behaviour cell key. But behaviour in prisons are increasing. We need to turn on ahead is the way we think about rehabilitation and justice. One of the things that the Justice Department was doing under michael gove when he was there was to try to bring our positives in people and wanted to redesignjails and all that kind of stuff. That seems to have fallen by the wayside. The rehabilitation on which this would rest costs money, doesnt it . Programmes take time to put in place and need resources. In terms of the cost of this, whenever someone brings out a big number in terms of cost you have to think, yes, that is the upfront cost, but what will be returned to be of the lifetime of the project . It is expensive to lock people up and it doesnt really work if we think that the aim is to reduce crime, to kind of get people back on track. A lot of it is that you have young kids coming into jail having had, maybe they have been expeued having had, maybe they have been expelled from school, we have expulsions going through the roof, Youth Services have been cut a loss, maybe they got involved in gangs for whatever reason, they go into prison and get involved in more gangs and there is no kind of path towards better behaviour. It is all punishment, punishment, you are out again, you do the same thing, you come back again. The idea that they have got some academic evidence and positive reinforcement is much more effective in changing behaviour rather than consistently punishing people. If this is a mechanism to try to get a reward system that needs rehabilitation rather than punishment it would be worth the investment. Sometimes it is a difficult sell with voters. A lot of people say they have been cuts to prison officer numbers as well. There is overcrowding injails. It isa shame. There is overcrowding injails. It is a shame. There was a big reform on the way forjustice and it hasnt really been carried through. The guardian. Academy status force on 300 primary schools. Figures that the guardian has been analysing for this exclusive, saying that there is a growing amount of opposition from pa rents a growing amount of opposition from parents against academies. Why . The opposition appearance has been growing since canonisation was rolled out. It was done quite quickly on the basis of not much evidence. There was initially a fair amount of opposition and scandals coming out about executive pay and some of the academy trust. The guardian has got some analysis showing that effectively when a local authority maintains schools that are performing well that erviti academy trust, they get paid, and when they fail to improve the school will moved onto another one out performing school. They are receiving quite large amounts of money for effectively doing very little. It is costing the taxpayer money and harming the schools stop a lot of them the proper investment and attention. And the parents are often annoyed, because when you move from a local authority maintains school to an academy, would you go to to say im not satisfied with my childs education or youre talking expulsions. Expulsions have gone up massively because there is a little accountability. And it diminishes, potentially, the influence for the local authority, the expertise that they withhold them if they are looking after fewer skills they will not need so many staff and that expertise goes, isu. Yes. But people who supported say you are setting head teachers free to run the school in the way they think suits the particular area and the way they think is beneficial for the pupils and the children there. The 300 schools that have been forced to become an academies, ofsted had rated. Ed taylor is much more the way the school operates. It is tailored. If they keep failing it is because of the underlying issues they face in that community. Social issues. Absolutely. A lot of people with academies thought an academy in and of itself made it better. It is and of itself made it better. It is a process. Making something an academy is rebadging it. There is very little evidence. It often hasnt worked. It is often costly taxpayer lots of money. Some of these executives are making staggering amounts of money from this process cost the. There is a much evidence it is helping young people. The money would definitely be better spent addressing the Funding Crisis we have in schools at the moment. A quick thought in the cricket. England crossing australia so they can meet new zealand in the final on sunday. Finally it is the front page of the paper. We have loved the womens world cup, that was on bbc, they did a greatjob with that, treated it like a proper series of anti morsi was. This has been pay per view tv. Series of anti morsi was.

We start with an extraordinary performance from england, who thrashed australia to reach their first cricket World Cup Final in 27 years. Having bowled australia out for 223 with an over to spare, england chased down their target with ease. Will perry was watching at edgbaston. Crickets coming home was the child from the england fans having watched their side thumbed their old rivals australia by eight wickets to book their place in the World Cup Final on sunday against new zealand. 224 was the target for england and they knockedit was the target for england and they knocked it off very comfortably. Their opening partnership, 124 between Jonny Bairstow and jason roy. Jonny bairstow eventually going for lbw bowled by mitchell starc, which he reviewed, that made england we re which he reviewed, that made england were out of reviews when they really needed one. Pat cummins boll, caught behind, he did not get anything on it, and he was on his way back to the pavilion. Eoin morgan, the one day captain, and joe root, ets captain, saw england over the line with morgan hitting the winning runs to put england into that showpiece finale against new zealand. England have been to three world cups before, they lost all three of them, the last one in 1992. That wasnt to be for england. 27 years on they have certainly put the semi final hoodoo that has been over england this summer and last summer to bed and england, can they go to lourdes and england, can they go to lourdes and get their hands on the world cup trophy .
