Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are the parliamentary journalist tony grew and journalist and broadcaster caroline frost. The metro goes with the demand from the Iraqi Parliament that all us and uk troops leave the country amid a growing crisis over america s assassination of iran stop general. The guardian says pressure is growing on the Trump Administration to justify its claim that the killing of Qasem Soleimani was about stopping a war, rather then starting one as tension continues to rise. The telegraph goes with a warning from borisjohnson to iran not to attempt retaliation or reprisals against america following the assassination of its top general. The sun also goes with borisjohnsons intervention. The paper declares there will be no tears for the assassinated general as the Prime Minister says the uk will not lament soleimanis death. And the times picks up on comments from a Senior Commander in tehran who warns british troops in the middle east could be Collateral Damage in iranian attacks on the us military. That is the story we will begin with and how it is festival featured in the guardian, caroline. Pressure grows on trump to justify the Qasem Soleimani killing and Congress Wants a nswe is. Soleimani killing and Congress Wants answers. Yes, donald trump has made this executive order and we have accou nts this executive order and we have accounts from washington wet nancy pelosi is leading the charge to explain ask to explain why donald trump made this decision. She is joining her voice to those questioning the legality of it. In
this country, we have got keir starmer, the now labour leader candidate as of today, questioning the legality of it in a way that our own government is at the moment shying away from. Instead, they are talking about seemingly putting their power behind that of the us. Obviously, it is a diplomatic tightrope, as much as it is military. The fact that donald trump has got to explain himself, i dont know how concerned are years with all of that. It is done, and i guess reprisals will be what they concentrate on, rather than looking back and explaining themselves. We are told the United States got a message to iran by the swiss who said if youre going to retaliate, dont do too much. That is an extraordinary way to carry on, as an onlooker, if youre not about to start a war. President trump is my attitude here isnt very helpful, his tweets arent very helpful. He
was 011 his tweets arent very helpful. He was on twitter last night saying we are going to bomb 52 cult cult targets in iraq, including cultural targets. He has been present for three years now and we still dont really understand him and we still dont have a mechanism by which we can get our heads around the way in which he operates because it is so far outside of international norms, so far outside of international norms, so far from the how we expect an american president to behave. I also get the sense that lack of understanding extends to washington, his own administration, his own secretary of state, his own defence secretary. He is genuinely a loose cannon secretary. He is genuinely a loose cannon and that is to me the most concerning thing about that situation. And the stakes are so high in everything he said he didnt wa nt high in everything he said he didnt want america to be involved in. He ran all the way to the white house on this, not putting troops in danger, concentrating on america
economically, looking after themselves on their own soil, now this. The times, we will kill uk tubes troops, once a round. British troops could be Collateral Damage of american targets are struck. We have got british troops in the middle east, in this part of the world, helping iraq to fight isis and training their soldiers. Horrible. For the supreme leader, the ayatollah, his decision, the dilemma, he has to be seen to react otherwise he will lose face in his own country but it is measuring that response so that he doesnt end up sort of causing a calamitous colla pse sort of causing a calamitous collapse in the area and perhaps repercussions elsewhere in the world, bringing in europe potentially, sadly the uk, countries like israel, syria, suddenly youve got this domino effect of leaders having to have a say in the matter so everybody is now watching iran and how they react. Already we have
her tonight possibly did i see movements into the green zone . This is moving very speedily already. We have the iraqi vote about sending us troops home. They cant force the troops home. They cant force the troops out, can they . What a blind they are in. I suspect significant numberof iraqis they are in. I suspect significant number of iraqis dont want americans in the country but the government takes a different position. The times spoke to a Senior Commander who said, we ask others not to stand with a tramp regime to avoid wider Collateral Damage. I think the uk government is ina damage. I think the uk government is in a difficult position here. They wa nt in a difficult position here. They want to be seen to be set on the side of de escalation, and britain was a big supporter of the uranium deal. President trump withdrew from
it. Deal. President trump withdrew from it. The iranians deal. It is quite a complex situation. We want to be seen to be supporting the us but we dont have the money or the troops to do it. We have the six largest defence budget. Yes, but the army is at the smallest since the napoleonic wars. Our armed forces are nowhere near as strong or robust as they were in the times of Northern Ireland or the falklands. Johnson seems to be answering for the United States. Yes, ive got no idea about the telegraph, how they have made that jump from the headline into the body of the text. The journalist dont like the headlines in the headline writers dont write the stories. You would expect the headline writers to read the story. I would have once
expected that but i dont expect it any more. Across the industry, there has been a decline in standards. But we are also making a specific point here that us, in this context, whenever the Prime Minister says dont strike at us, he means the us, but he also means the United Kingdom and the nato alliance. Everybody has to work out who their best ally is in this. Iraq and iran have been at war in the past but they are neighbours. And so the iraqis are having to try to tread a very difficult line. What i find extraordinary is only less than a month ago, borisjohnson was standing outside downside downing street, he probably thought the hard yards were done for a while yet, go off to the caribbean, have a chill out, and here he is, one of the
prominent figures on the world stage in what people are saying is akin to the cu ban in what people are saying is akin to the cuban missile crisis. It is a massive test of leadership. the cuban missile crisis. It is a massive test of leadership. I think borisjohnson, the eyes of the majority of the voters, it hasnt done anything particularly wrong by being on holiday, hasnt done anything critically wrong by not immediately intervening in the situation. As Prime Minister, he wants to focus on domestic issues, he doesnt want to be another tony blair focusing on international issues. A kind of Henry Kissinger wandering around the world stage. It is dominating the media over this weekend, were not talking about impeachment brexit, are we . No. Lets talk about hs2. Rail budget out of control, Lord Berkeley has had a look. He has never had been afan. Do had a look. He has never had been a fan. Do your figures, had a look. He has never had been a fan. Do yourfigures, you are impressive. Im not going to do them now, you have pre empted them. Basically, the cost of the project has risen exponentially since it was announced by Gordon BrownsGovernment Back in 2010. A review has been completed but wasnt released before the general election, were expected to be released in the next few weeks. Lord berkeley, the deputy chairman, said it would cost a all those northern constituencies, several of those mps are very unhappy about h52, we could easily see a situation when they decide to build on the north, rather than building in london. The thing is, it is one of those government projects that keeps on spiralling in terms of its costs. The north end and is expecting big investments. Certainly after the election, this is payback time, so he will have to pay is payback time, so he will have to pay is payback time, so he will have to
pay tread carefully, if this review turns into a collapse or a retreat on some of those big, ambitious plans, how he will spend that to those new supporters of his, it will be very interesting. That to those new supporters of his, it will be very interestinglj that to those new supporters of his, it will be very interesting. I think the government is interested in quick wins so h52 will take at least ten years, 20 years, they want things. What would be a quick win . A railway line between two northern cities or an upgrade programme on the roads. That is a sort of thing you can point to and say, we did that, in five years. Labour could fight tojoin that, in five years. Labour could fight to join the eu if that, in five years. Labour could fight tojoin the eu if labour elects Jess Phillips fight tojoin the eu if labour electsJess Phillips as leader. Fight tojoin the eu if labour elects Jess Phillips as leader. She is polling at 12 in the leadership campaign, she is one of the very few people who can break through what is seen as that kind ofjust repetitive cycle of labour, people who dont really capture the imagination. Clearly, Boris Johnson grabbed
really capture the imagination. Clearly, borisjohnson grabbed all the charisma points and that was lacking in the labour leadership labourcampaign. Lacking in the labour leadership labour campaign. Jess phillips could be seen as a bright antidote but she is up against other public figures like kier starmer who has quite clearly stated he is offering an alternative view, is a former devout remainer, he is saying those decisions are passed, they are putting themselves into different camps Going Forward into this leadership campaign. Why is the Daily Telegraph put in the summer front page . They are big fans of Jess Phillips and want to get their message out there. The labour leadership it is like five men fighting over a cone, no one cares. They have crashed at their worst defeat since 1995. Its not like people are sitting on the edge of the dates thinking. This is to do with trying to. The chances of
Jess Phillips winning are reasonably low, i would say. Jess phillips winning are reasonably low, iwould say. I Jess Phillips winning are reasonably low, i would say. I think she has been inspirational, as a leader, and she wont win. That has really tickled me. Some of the bald men are actually within, i should point that out. Important point. Please do not ta ke out. Important point. Please do not take that literally. I take that back, that was a terrible analogy. Please dont. Share the water. Sorry, i need a tissue. Daily mail, caroline, help me out here. This is jodie, in los angeles in a very, very, very snazzy blouse. One of our rising stars, she has already ca ptu red rising stars, she has already captured a bafta and an emmy award for killing eve. We should mention that Phoebe Waller bridge, she
already has a clutch of awards for flea bag. Already has a clutch of awards for fleabag. These are our great hopes going into the Golden Globes which are starting off right now. By this time tomorrow, we will know. She is the safe want to put your money behind. Lots of british names are in the brits. Kit harrington is the only game of thrones and name. When you think what a juggernaut of the success that show was but it has died on the vine in its last series so we only have one sole british hope from that particular series. You are here tomorrow on the news channel, do you have anything to add . No. You have said quite enough, that has ruined my make up, it really has. Lets go back to the times for a minute. Atheists put their faith times for a minute. Atheists put theirfaith in god light cats. Churchgoers have fewer pets. This is a highly Scientific Study from the
