[Music] well hello there watching The Press preview a first look at what is on the front pages time then to see what's making the headlines with the associate editor of the Daily Mirror Kevin mire and the deputy comment editor of the telegraph Annabelle denim good to have you both with us good to see you so to the front pages then let us start with the telegraph reporting on the r between Rishi sunak and the Irish Prime Minister over sending police to the border to stop migrants entering Ireland the da mail claims Rwanda has become a reality now the first migrants ear marked for removal to the African nation have been detained but the I reports the Rwanda plan could be delayed further as civil servants sue the government labor has said it would admit small boat migrants into the Asylum system if it wins the election according to the times the Metro covers the death of 14-year-old Daniel anduin who died in a sword attack yesterday the man charged with his murder is due in court labor is set to reveal a water down package of workers rights in the coming weeks the financial times is calling it a softening of radical policies ahead of the election labor faces criticism over a loophole and a plan to ban Zero Hour contracts is the Guardians take on that story the sun has a story about footballer Trent Alexander Arnold apparently dating Iris Law the daughter of actor Jude Law and a reminder by scanning the QR code you'll see on screen during the program you can check out the front pages of those papers for yourself while you listen to Our Guest so let's head straight to them uh and to Kevin and Annabelle welcome to both of you and why don't you kick off with the Daily Mail day that Rwanda became a reality you know home office video released to us showing people handcuffed and detained and whipped out the very people who are due to be sent to Rwanda yeah kind of vile grotesque video I I thought if people hadn't put put up any opposition why are they being handcuffed and dragged out in that way rather than led to a van if if if Putin released a video like this it would be condemned uh for for mistreating uh mistreating uh people and whatever happened to the police and civil servants public bodies not getting involved in politics before elections and there are elections tomorrow anyway there's all there's all that but uh I'm not sure you can actually argue as the male big supporter of uh Rwanda uh that policy the day that Rwanda became a reality it's it's it's become Grim for those who've been um seized in this way and of course I think anyone else who was on on that list is probably going to scarper now they see that video it could well backfire on on the government but it only becomes a reality I think Rwanda when people are forcibly deported and it begins to stop the boats I don't think you can say it's a reality like this and of course we we saw government ministers were saying oh it's a reality over um somebody of African origin volunteering for a free flight £3,000 and five years board and lodgings in uh in kagali trying to claim that was a reality well but that voluntary scheme is totally different to the enforced scheme so I don't think it's a reality but I think it's taken a very nasty ter with that footage yes and it was certainly the times earlier this week who suggested that some of these migrants Bound for Randa had already scared to use Kevin's phraseology you know is this you know does this mean they will now disappear into the ether are they can they be tracked down if they're meant to be boarding a flight in 9 to 11 weeks I think the maale puts it now well look there are around five and a half thousand 5,700 migrants who've been earmarked for deportation to Rwanda um over half of which are believed to be well missing although the home office wouldn't use that term but do appear to have lost track of them and what incentive will there be after these dramatic raids for migrants to come forward to be deported when you know that's they've they've made a very perilous Journey to the UK to be here what I find extraordinary is not just that this wasn't appropriate but it also wasn't necessary from a political standpoint I think it's become clear over the last few days that Rwanda is actually working better than probably anybody in the conservative party could possibly have hoped because of you've had this row with Ireland because it the Rwanda Bill managed to get over the line um because all right it was a voluntary um flight over to kagali commercial airline with with some perks that you pointed out but nonetheless that there was a sense that there was some momentum with the conservative party and there have been rumors that other European nations which are themselves grappling with migrant crises of their own are looking at Rwanda wondering if they could mirror it with a a similar Pol policy in their own countes so as I say I think that there was some momentum with the Tories that's been in some ways ruined dampened by by these raids well we come on to the Ireland border ra which is in the lead for your paper in a moment but first of all to the eye Kevin and the fact that actually the civil servants Union has decided to sue the government about this we always knew there were likely to be more Court action did we think theyd come from CI senior civil servants this is the first division Association we generally call mandarins the the senior people who effectively get the political orders and then give the orders to the other civil servants to act it and it's on the on the grounds the challenge is would they be told to break the law break international law because civil servants have to follow the uh follow the law law obear the law but what happens if a government is judged to be breaking the law then are you breaking the law if you if you f I'm only following orders uh and it's said Dave Penman the General Secretary of the FDA says they they could be breaking international law so they're going to uh to test this now I think that's perfectly reasonable I think civil servants should carry out orders but if you're asked to break the law then you shouldn't so record numbers have already started arriving in this country in the first four months of this year 7 and a half thousand 60% you say are missing an action and meantime we've got this rout with Ireland um and the idea that they are sending police now to the border with Northern Ireland a border that is supposed to be unpaced with pleas from Rishi sunak not to enforce border controls at this you know critical juncture well Rishi sunak has insisted that the UK had made commitments to avoid a half border as part of the Good Friday uh agreement that was Central to the brexit negotiations it was something that Leo Vera pushed for very hard he he was commended by the European Union for the progress that he made there um and the sense from Downing Street is that uh Ireland cannot be cherry-picking um you know when it comes to important International agreements it's been a really extraordinary row you know six weeks ago the Irish high high court barred the government the Irish government from returning would be migrants to Britain uh precisely because they might be sent to Rwanda which it did not regard as a safe country and there it was putting those migrants in Peril the Ireland itself had supported the EU when it was reticent to uh take back channel migrants from the UK so it did the Irish government has found itself in a bind when it comes to this situation and as I say this R which is s very strange and unexpected to begin with is is certainly intensifying and will do so much further if they do send police to the North and South it's it's quite dizzying really the whole the whole rout um of course you the UK Supreme Court ruled Rwanda was unsafe but then the government decided to pass legislation just say no it is safe pass legislation saying Annabelle you're 22t tall it wouldn't make you 22t tall but nevertheless they've done that but it you can't have a hard border now Simon Harris the t-shock is say we're not going to have a hard border we're just going to have a few coppers lurking around the Border um but there is there is that no returns policy but this 90% figure which got is has got taken up as the telegraphs says here you know that 90% of migrants now entering Ireland are said to be coming from the UK fleeing um fle flee in the UK possibly Rwanda there's no figure for it and of course the 90% now as the telegraph says is an anecdotal figure that's just got used I mean the Irish did double down on that last night I think actually but they've also well they're doubling away from it now doubling away D yes exactly and in Dublin the T city of 268 people living in this makeshift migrant Camp have been taken into into government state managed sites I think they called it as well so they're trying to you know lose them from the streets of of Dublin as well so we'll see what happens with this certainly um but let's move on to a final story if you don't mind for this part which is the enormous uh ructions we've seen oh actually no you changed it let me have a look sorry Labor's workers rights uh in the Ft uh and the guardian uh what is labor changing and why Kevin yeah the the New Deal for working people I would say is the jewel in Labor uh Crown the offer um Annabelle I've no doubt would take a different position on it but it was to increase quite significantly protection at work from day one instead hav to wait two two years to for instance qualify for um employment protection against onfair dismissal uh Banning zero hours contracts outlawing uh fire and rehire on Lower terms uh rowing back on some of the Tory more recent anti-trade Union laws but not not the all not the ma not the majority according to the and labor disputes this the Ft business people lobbyists have been speaking to labor on behalf of business are saying Labor's run back now this was Angela Raina the it was her she used to call her her baby at times and interestingly she is weakened politically within labor as long as this police inquiry is is ongoing and as long as that controversy around her she hasn't got the political might she had to defend her New Deal interesting just very quickly because it's the lead for the guardan as well just your thoughts on this in just a sentence if you don't mind I'm running late well I think you know it's going to be very difficult for K starm now because it looks like he's come out with bold policies and then almost every single time has been forced to water them down if not uturn Al together um it's it's quite clear that this new deal for workers um is starting to collide with reality businesses have raised concerns over the impact that they'll have on hiring particularly those at entry level um and you know to say that it's going to be revolutionary the biggest increase in workers rights for decades well that ignores that we've seen a massive increase in employment legislation over the last 14 years of conservative government around things like flexible working around uh increases in the minimum wage um holiday pay maternity pay all of these sorts of issues we've seen increase rights for workers and there are a serious questions to be asked over whether need be the G econ can't Jo in that was a very long sentence sorry I'm really over anyway coming up next uh we will uh talk more about the front pages including the tributes paid to the 14-year-old boy fatally stabbed in m east [Music] London well welcome back you are watching The Press preview with me once again the associate editor of the Mira Kevin Maguire and the deputy comment editor of the telegraph Annabelle Dan welcome back to both of you um you know a face of sadness on many a front page the Metro uh the sun uh the times as well the naming of this 14 yearold Annabelle who was killed in this knife attack yes I mean it's just such a tragic event and so Random you know you just can't believe this young sweet boy bad luck and what a horrible coincidence that he went to the same school as Grace and Malik Kumar who was murdered last year in that knife attack um with valdo calican uh in Nottingham along with two others um so no it's you know it's just an absolutely terrible story um you can't imagine what his family must be going through but very um complimentary tributes paid to this boy who was at bankr um school and been described as a you know gentle child uh with a positive nature who was a true scholar so you know what a terrible loss yes Daniel andrein I'm big football fan as well with Aral Arsenal just look it's just a a young lad he life ahead of him and know as you say lots of tributes to a great scholar what a loss and just the wrong place at the wrong time uh and it's just it's incredible the Grim coincidence to people from that school from the same school and and the question about what to do about it and this idea of should more officers you know have some tools at least to apprehend people like tasers for example and whether or not the London mayor would approve of that which all feeds into electioneering as well doesn't it for I'm I'm I'm I'm afraid it does uh and Dean the the mayor of London who has oversight of the Metropolitan Police sh shares it with the Home Secretary uh James cleverly is not has not committed him self to ensuring all police officers have tasers but he hasn't said they shouldn't uh either and Mark Rowley the commissioner is looking into it I thought they all had actually um but it seems only a minority do and it is a debate you have to have because tasers were used they're non-lethal although they have been rare cases when they've killed uh but they did they did halt the uh you know the suspect with ass sword well the other part of this of course are the two Metropolitan in officers who sustained serious injuries one woman came close to losing her hand she had to have hours of surgery this female officer um and you know you have to question whether a bat on or a trunion is is really a match for a a sword or a machete you know a long knife Annabelle Kevin thank you both very much indeed
