The uk consumer can get the uk out ofa the uk consumer can get the uk out of a hole. We are quite good at shopping and we have done well at it over the last year. We have still gone shopping, but you have to wonder at what point that will run out of road. We will have to make some difficult choices. Probably some difficult choices. Probably some underlying issues here. If that is the amount of money that they are putting away to save, how much i be putting away to save, how much i be putting into pensions . Some people are withdrawing their cash lump sum is out of their pensions to do work on their homes and so forth. Are we building up another problem, which going back 15 20 years we were being told we had not saved enough for our pensions but now because of the taxes on pensions and the squeeze on income ebor may not be saving enough for their pensions. It seemed that the Bank Of England which may be drifting towards an Interest Rates sooner drifting towards an Interest Rates sooner rather than later said it will be later. It has been a big week for Central Banks this week. Mark carney give quite a strong impression this week that he would be minded under certain circumstances to start thinking about raising Interest Rates, which we have not done for ages. Only ten days beforehand he was saying that specifically that now was not the time to do it. There is not so much clear blue water between the state m e nts clear blue water between the statements as may one appear, but there is a shift in mood globally, both that the Bank Of England and the European Central bank and elsewhere to say, we might be starting to edge towards getting Interest Rates back to normal but eve ryo ne Interest Rates back to normal but everyone is saying but we need to do this very carefully because we have not been in this situation before, we have been sold for so long, we need to tread carefully. We can stay with the ft that moved to the story, the picture story on the front page. Pride of place, germany legalises 93v pride of place, germany legalises gay marriage despite of Angela Merkels vote. She gave everyone the option of voting. She voted against the reforms. The first thing that shocked me was that i did not realise germany did not have equal marriage. I thought we were behind them. A great picture on the front page, a lovely picture. It coincides with gay pride, celebrations going on across europe this week. The shock there was Angela Merkel voting against the reform. I think it was an open vote, a free vote, but it is not what we expected. It passed pretty easily in the end, 393 226. I presume that Angela Merkel knew that that would happen. This has been a matter of personal conscience fathauer and a reminder that a lot of social issues in germany tend to have a more conservative attitude towards than we are used to hear. We can look at the daily mail. The stories also in the sun. To do with the foreign aid budget. The Civil Service bill rockets and it should be spent differently. This is suggesting that the Foreign Aid Department bill, the wage bill for running it, has gone up by 40 in seven years. The daily mail likes of the other newspapers has been questioning whether we should be spending this kind of money, at any kind of money. 4096 of not very much is not very much. You with your statistics and clarity. The bill has gone up by £38 million. It is a drop in the ocean when it comes to public finances. The sun is making a similar point. When you are talking about amounts of this size but we have just given £i about amounts of this size but we have just given £1 million to Northern Ireland s, it makes you wonder whether we are focusing on the right numbers. It will play well with people who want to see the nhs is the recipient of this money. David cameron brought in the 0. 7 rule. He did this to try and ensure that the Conservative Party are not nasty and it is backed by the labour party. In the country, they say Charity Begins at home. When we are spending money on other countries they have genuine concerns about that. The wage bill has gone up by 40 . The Public Sector workers are all having their pay capped at i . That is now being brought forward. The conservatives are now agonising over whether they should lift the cap on wages and this highlights the other side of the coin. It did not get much action in the house of commons, removing the cap. There was a boat on that. Two stories in the telegraph. Bbc to take on net flicks with cliffhangers and cricket. Cricket coming back to the bbc, and channel 4, it will be like the summer channel 4, it will be like the summer of our childhoods. The cliffhangers were in the days before boxed sets and dvds. Now you can download the whole thing. You had to watch the tv at that time unless you we re watch the tv at that time unless you were wealthy and had a video player. It is quite fun that people will gather around. The problem with not watching it live is that you hear someone watching it live is that you hear someone talking about what you see something about a dramatic episode you are two episodes behind. The bbc cant be taking on some of the cost that the streaming services are able to put money into. It is about creating events and moments and being part of a family schedule, if you like. The cricket deal is extraordinary. A lot of money has gone to the england and Wales Cricket board. There is going to be a lot of cricket on tv. It is a sweet idea that you have everyone gathering around to watch the tv. Half of them on their iphones. Gathering around to watch the tv. Half of them on their iphoneslj like to thank the bbc already has a programme like that. Finally, the story keeps going, Rebellion Spreads to the lords. The speaker has said that you no longer have to wear a tie in common is now a Liberal Democrat peer is suggesting the same thing in the other place. It should not be a huge surprise Becausejohn Burkle is quite well known for having stopped wearing tights and wigs in parliament. God knows what the rest of the world thinks about how we dress of these things. I find it difficult to get to animated about what people wear in parliament. Clearly there is a Strong School of thought that it is the thin end of the wedge in the usual characters are coming out to talk about how unhappy they are. It is clear where people are going to be in the debate. Apparently it is already happening on the bbc. On bbc news watch an editor showed up with no tie and chest here. Where do you draw the line . Would you be allowed to go to work without a tie . Youre representing accompanying you need to look smart. You cannot go wrong with a tie, because no one will look at your hair. I think it is ordered that one of the lords is going to break the rules. Can you imagine all the lords wearing their costumes but not the ties. It is the way the world is moving. Maybe we will see Jeremy Corbyn in a sheltered. World is moving. Maybe we will see Jeremy Corbyn in a Shelteredm World is moving. Maybe we will see Jeremy Corbyn in a sheltered. It is becoming more like a county council, some have said. That is all from the papers tonight. Dont forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. Its all there for you seven days a week at bbc Dot Co Uk Forward Slash papers and if you miss the programme any evening you can watch it later on bbc iplayer.

The families of the young men who drowned Off Camber Sands last summer express their anger about safety on the beach. There are lifeboats anywhere. There was no warnings signs.
