Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are ben chu, Economics Editor at the independent, and giles kenningham, the former Press Chief of the uks conservative party. Tomorrows Front Pages, starting with. The guardian says Prince William has castigated the bbc after an investigation found that Martin Bashir had used deceitful tactics that were later covered up by senior executives to secure his sensational 1995 interview with diana, princess of wales. The times also reports Prince William condemning the bbc for its lies in securing his Mothers Interview with Martin Bashir, which he said stoked her paranoia and contributed to the breakdown of her marriage. The Daily Mail describes it as a blistering attack, with Princes William and harry both damning the bbc for deceiving their mother, ruining her life and helping to hasten her divorce. The i has Prince Harry saying the Ripple Effect of a culture of exploitation and unethical practices were ultimately contributory factors to taking his mothers life. While the Daily Mirror also reflects the anger from Princes William and harry over Martin Bashir� s Panorama Interview with their mother on its Front Page. The metro quotes the World Health Organization saying every existing Coronavirus Vaccine works against all known variants, including the indian strain. Meanwhile, the financial times reports australias biggest Beef Exporter has predicted that it could boost Uk Sales tenfold if prime Minister Borisjohnson backs a zero tariff, zero quota Trade Deal, as Cabinet Ministers clashed over the potential impact on british farmers. So that is a quick look at the Front Pages. Love you to have you both back. Lets start off with the Daily Mail and giles can you kick us off please . It mail and giles can you kick us off lease . , ~ , please . It seems like universally across all the please . It seems like universally across all the national please . It seems like universally. Across all the national newspapers tonight, they are leading on this story about the bbc in the fact that Martin Bashir was deceitful when obtaining this interview with Princess Diana. The Daily Mail does not hold back. It is explosive in its language on the Front Page and its language on the Front Page and it talks here about how Prince Harry and Prince William blame the interview and the way it was obtained for accelerating the divorce between charles and diana, how in essence It Set in motion a series of events which ruin the final years of dianas lie. So clearly a huge Reputational Hit for the bbc. Is it facing it essential crisis . I would say no. Remember these are the actions of one Rogue Reporter 25 years ago. Clearly there are still questions that need to be answered, why was there a Cover Up of 25 years . Why was he hired again . The bbc, which essentially its a Big Cachet is about trust and sort ofjournalism, is going to be need to be doing stuff in the coming days and weeks to reassure The Public that something like this is never going to happen again and there is full transparency at the highest levels of integrity and the strongest of ethics when it comes to theirjournalism. So, yeah, a Dark Day for the bbc. We theirjournalism. So, yeah, a Dark Day for the bbc. Day for the bbc. We look at that statement. Day for the bbc. We look at that statement, ben, day for the bbc.

One of those occasions where the newspapers dont really i where the newspapers dont really have to where the newspapers dont really have to exaggerate. The statement itself is have to exaggerate. The statement itself is so have to exaggerate. The statement itself is so firm and its language and its itself is so firm and its language and its condemnation as you say of Notiust And its condemnation as you say of Notiust A and its condemnation as you say of notjust a journalist but and its condemnation as you say of not just a journalist but the bbcs management. Its a terrible day for the bbc, management. Its a terrible day for the bbc, notjust having to accept the bbc, notjust having to accept the finding of this damning report also then the finding of this damning report also then the response of Prince William also then the response of Prince William and Prince Harry and also earl spencer, Princess Diana poz at brother, earl spencer, Princess Diana poz at brother, drawing a direct link between brother, drawing a direct link between the interview and what went on to secure it and her death two years on to secure it and her death two years later~ on to secure it and her death two years later. So the Big Question now is how years later. So the Big Question now is how does years later. So the Big Question now is how does The Public respond to this . Is how does The Public respond to this . What is how does The Public respond to this . What is Public Opinion going to be this . What is Public Opinion going to be of this . What is Public Opinion going to be of the bbc . How much has it been to be of the bbc . How much has it been damaged . Because public Opinion And Trust been damaged . Because public Opinion And Trust in been damaged .

Is this a kind of lot of other Media groups. Is this a kind of event they could cut through and change that was meant thats what and change that was meant thats what Bbc And Change that was meant thats what Bbc Management must be extremely worried about. And i think that they extremely worried about. And i think that they are formulating some plan to try that they are formulating some plan to try and that they are formulating some plan to try and demonstrate that they are still trustworthy. To try and demonstrate that they are stilltrustworthy. Not to try and demonstrate that they are still trustworthy. Not really a question still trustworthy. Not really a Question Ofjust saying sorry and saying Question Ofjust saying sorry and saying things to different now. They have to saying things to different now. They have to somehow show it and prove it and make have to somehow show it and prove it and make sure that The Public understands that. If and make sure that The Public understands that. And make sure that The Public understands that. If we turn to the front a. E understands that. If we turn to the Front Page of understands that. If we turn to the Front Page of the understands that. If we turn to the Front Page of the daily understands that. If we turn to the Front Page of the Daily Mirror, understands that. If we turn to the Front Page of the Daily Mirror, you| Front Page of the Daily Mirror, You Have a picture there of diana with her boys. The statements coming out tonight, just taking a look at harrys statement. There is a little excerpt here that i would just read out saying and thanking the bbc for owning the mistake within saying that this is the first step towards justice and truth. Giles, what will that look like . I justice and truth. Giles, what will that look like . That look like . I think if your member the that look like . I think if your member the context that look like . I think if your member the context here i that look like . I think if your member the context here is| that look like . I think if your member the context here is that both Harry And William have had over the years and uneasy relationship with the press. I think its been widely reported that they do blame the press for their mothers death. Ultimately at least. So, hence why you see they have been using the language that has been blistering in terms of what they have said and what they want. I think what is also notable about this story is you now have politicians coming out and also attacking the bbc. 0liver dowd, secretary of state for culture, Media and sport, has said that this goes to the heart of governance issues the Bbc And Youll be looking closely at this in reviewing the issues of governance going forward with a charter review. So a lot of people coming out and amongst some pockets of westminster� s no love lost for the bbc. So i think he will see some of the politicians waiting in. I have to say to what ben was saying, i think the bbc has performed an amazing Public Service during Covid I9 and its been playing an incredibly role in terms of forming and informing The Public. So the question there as i think levels of trust have been a credibly hot is how much does this cut through and how much does this undermine what is essentially one of the few global news brands that we have left in the world, like cnn, and it is effectively a form of soft power for the and it is effectively a form of Soft Powerfor the uk and it is effectively a form of soft power for the uk throughout the world. So unanswered questions and it will be lie and depend upon how they respond in the coming days was about think they have had the tone right this evening. They have not been quantified and their apologies. So far, the response has been right and measured but id think that this Will Notjust Go Away in the coming hours. Has Will Not ust go away in the coming hours. � ,. , Will Not ust go away in the coming hours. ,. ,. ,. , hours. As a return to the Front Page ofthe hours. As a return to the Front Page of the independent, hours. As a return to the Front Page of the independent, ben, hours. As a return to the Front Page of the independent, ben, it hours. As a return to the Front Page of the independent, ben, it is of the independent, ben, it is interesting in harrys statement, he does say what deeply concerns him is the practices are still widespread today. Then and now, bigger than one outlet, one network or one publication. So it really does give you an idea of The Sun Public Opinion of the Media-today'>Media Today and it is the wider Media and notjust the bbc that they are firing this salvo out there. I that they are firing this salvo out there. ~ � , that they are firing this salvo out there. ~ � ,. , that they are firing this salvo out there. ~ � ,. , , there. I think its quite a bit up with the two there. I think its quite a bit up with the two statements, there. I think its quite a bit up with the two statements, the i there. I think its quite a bit up i with the two statements, The One from with the two statements, The One from Prince William and Prince Harry, from Prince William and Prince Harry, Side By side and as you rightly harry, Side By side and as you rightly Point Out Harry seems to broaden rightly Point Out Harry seems to broaden it rightly Point Out Harry seems to broaden it out to the Media in general, broaden it out to the Media in general, talking about not one outlet. General, talking about not one outlet, notjust the bbc, not one network outlet, notjust the bbc, not one network or outlet, notjust the bbc, not one network or one publication, it is the whole network or one publication, it is the whole ecosystem. And as giles says. The whole ecosystem. And as giles says. There the whole ecosystem. And as giles says, there is a context here. He as effectively says, there is a context here. He as effectively in says, there is a context here. He as effectively in his eyes being driven out of effectively in his eyes being driven out of the effectively in his eyes being driven out of the uk by the tabloid Media. He was out of the uk by the tabloid Media.

Look, i mean the Media which is the problem. Look, i mean the Media is which is the problem. Look, i mean the Media is not going to change. The big the Media is not going to change. The Big Question is is only going to change the Big Question is is only going to change the the Big Question is is only going to change the Media . And i think the threat change the Media . And i think the threat for change the Media . And i think the threat for the bbc is that this government is pretty hostile, showing government is pretty hostile, showing us of a pretty hostile to the bbc showing us of a pretty hostile to the bbc in recent years. Does this ive the bbc in recent years. Does this give the the bbc in recent years.

Thats again if i was in other ways . Thats again if i was in management i will be pretty concerned about and wondering whether concerned about and wondering whether something is going to follow this that whether something is going to follow this that will be damaging to the corporations long Term Future . Can corporations longTerm Future . Can i ask Ou Corporations longTerm Future . Can i ask you one corporations long Term Future . Can i ask you one last question on this, please .

There are concerns a Certificate Number of cases in india but a few cases have been found in other parts of the world as well. Lets move on. The financial times and its talking about australian beef and the sector eyeing a surge in Uk Sales if a zero Tariff Deal is back. Giles.

Giles. A big Route Rating at the heart of cabinet over back. Giles. A big Route Rating at the heart of cabinet over this i the heart of cabinet over this perspective Trade Deal with australia as you said with 80 tariff, zero quota deal. Concerns i think from George Eustis about what this means for farmers and You Have had the national Farmers Union up in Arms Today say this is effectively going to throw them out the bus and is going to costjobs for the sector. Got liz truss more bullish about signing this deal. And reports say that provided safeguards in place for farmers and the fact that these new rules will take time to come into force over a number of years, that we should not be worrying about anything. I think it does highlightjust a very stark reality of these Trade Deals is that its not a utopian world. Youre going to have to make Trade Offs and not get everything you want in all these things and that is the nature of brexit. That is in a reality we are in. So i have to see where we end up with this. It does not feel like this is clearly settled. I like this is clearly settled. I think it is depressing away that these think it is depressing away that these Trade Offs seem to have been brought these Trade Offs seem to have been brought up these Trade Offs seem to have been brought up Behind Closed Doors rather brought up Behind Closed Doors rather than in The Public arena and where rather than in The Public arena and where we rather than in The Public arena and where we could all engage in and people where we could all engage in and people could see the arguments laid out. People could see the arguments laid out one people could see the arguments laid out one of people could see the arguments laid out. One of the real problems with breaks out. One of the real problems with breaks in out. One of the real problems with breaks in the way it was sold to the people breaks in the way it was sold to the people was breaks in the way it was sold to the people was that there are no Trade Offs, that effectively people can have Trade Offs, that effectively people can have their cake and eat it as maurice can have their cake and eat it as Maurice Johnson is fond of saying. In Maurice Johnson is fond of saying. In fact, Maurice Johnson is fond of saying. In fact, if Maurice Johnson is fond of saying. In fact, if you open up the Uk Economy in fact, if you open up the Uk Economy to import, you do get some Sectors Economy to import, you do get some sectors which are going to lose out.

Thursday brought us an unusually deep area of low pressure for the time of year. It brought some very powerful looking seas to the coastline of newquay in cornwall. There, look at the pretty impressive waves battering the coastline here. And the strongest winds were around the coasts of south West England and wales. The strongest gusts were well into the 60s To Low 70s of miles an hour, peaking with a gust of 73 mph in Pembrey Sands in south wales. And of course it was pretty wet as well. The wettest weather is across this central swathe of the uk. 36 mm for north wales. But in sharp contrast to that, it was mainly dry across north west scotland, and there was barely a drop of rain across the south east. The rain will continue to be variable on into Friday Thanks to our familiar slow moving friend, our area of low pressure here. So, weve got rain at the moment. The rains getting heavier, the winds a bit stronger across eastern scotland. But for many of us, it will stay pretty blustery over the next few hours with those strong Gale Force gusts of Wind Pummeling the coasts and the hills. More rain to come as well. But its not too cold as we head into friday morning. Now, the wettest weather through the day will be across wales, northern england, eastern scotland. The rain not amounting to much for north west scotland. It will ease off in Northern Ireland, and there probably wont be that much in the south east. But the winds will be very strong, gusting to 50 60 mph around those English Channel coasts, perhaps 70 mph gusts somewhere like the needles, the West Coast of the isle of wight. And those temperatures disappointing, just 13 in london. Well, it should be about 19 at this time of year. Saturday brighter, but therell be some showers around, some of them heavy and thundery. Sunday sees a return of more wet weather pushing in from the west. It will also be quite windy. So, Saturdays Weather first of all. Might be some rain there or thereabouts in the south. Certainly quite a few showers across eastern areas as we start the day. The best of any brighter weather probably developing across northern and western areas of the uk as we go through the afternoon. And those temperatures still pretty disappointing. 12 in glasgow, should be about 16 at this time of year. And sunday, bright start with some sunshine. This band of rain is going to move in from the west with strengthening winds followed by showers in Northern Ireland later in the day. Well, some of those could be pretty heavy as well. And those temperatures, 11 12 degrees celsius, really poor for this stage of may. And even into next week, therell be showers around.
