Welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me randy ramage, the guardians chief leading writer, and the spectators political correspondent, katie. The daily mirror leads on the news that british gas is putting up Electricity Prices by 12. 5 , even though its boss admitted wholesale costs have fallen. The Daily Telegraph focuses on what the paper calls a row between the government and british gas over the cost of green energy subsidies. The times claimsjeremy green energy subsidies. The times claims Jeremy Corbyn green energy subsidies. The times claimsJeremy Corbyn is under pressure from labour mps to condemn president maduros violent regime in venezuela. The guardian has details ofa number of venezuela. The guardian has details of a number of tycoons who have been revealed as the owners of more than 1600 empty properties in the London Borough whether Grenfell Tower fire residents are still without homes. Long queues at some european airports, british tourists are queueing up to four hours because of the botched introduction of eu border checks. The sun says the bbc is facing accusations that the new mary berry show is just a Great British Take Off Copy Great British Take Off Copy Great British bake 0ff copy. The 12. 5 rise at british gas. This story in the daily mirror focuses on the boss. This is from a man who admits Electricity Costs have gone down but he will put prices up for 3 million people. There is outrage. And it is probably justified, people. There is outrage. And it is probablyjustified, given people. There is outrage. And it is probably justified, given people people. There is outrage. And it is probablyjustified, given people are finding themselves with their wages stagnating and prices going up. And it Isa Stagnating and prices going up. And it is a big rise, you will notice 12. 5 . Yes. Theirjustification is that the costs have gone up, including, they would say, some of the green stuff, put on by the government. They are blaming the governments green levy and their policies. The government have tried to distance themselves from that. It isnt a great look for the government. 0ne isnt a great look for the government. One of the things to may promised was a cap on energy prices. But as with much of the doomed manifesto, it has been dumped. People thought this would be protected but it hasnt been. The just about managing she has talked a lot about, not much help for them. We were told you could switch to another supplier but it doesnt a lwa Ys Another Supplier but it doesnt always work. It doesnt often. And those are often the most poor and the most vulnerable. British gas are putting out a rebate for its poorest customers. But this, i think the rise is just too fast. It is four times inflation. It is too big at a times inflation. It is too big at a time when people are struggling to pay the essentials, whether that is water, gas, electricity, they are going up faster than anybodys wages and that is where the problem lies for the government. British gas say they are the last of the company s to do this. Itjust seems that if you switch it off. Make any difference. It sparks everybody else off to put up their prices. Exactly. Lets move on to the Daily Telegraph. Priti patel, the International Development secretary, demanding restraint on Civil Service pat demanding restraint on Civil Service pay. Talking about the crazy salaries, saying it isnt in step. It is about Public Sector pay, about people struggling, their wages not going up. Now she has said that now its time for restraint. It bothers me. 0ut its time for restraint. It bothers me. Out of step with Public Opinion. Public opinion on Something Like hanging is bad. If you went with everything in Public Opinion you would not be in office. You way up reasoned argument and make a decision. This does not sit very well with somebody like me
