grand slam. we enjoy each other's company. it's a big thing to be part of eight squad, you have to operate at the full potential and operate well. this is a special place to be. so now not a moment to lose focus as six nations weekend and a week spent ‘ between skylights merger between ospreys and skylights has been an unwelcome distraction. nine of the whales started when i potentially affected. the future of many of their players has at times as any. no doubt the players have been distracted. he has seen these things in the players are going home and hearing from partners and wives and hearing from partners and wives and have been questions asked about what is going on. we try to eliminate those distractions and focus on an important game for us. in edinboro, a special welcome awaits. scotland's six nations has

central to that win. fly half rhys priestland, who slotted over all of their points, a total of six penalties, this the pick. sarries missing their england contingent, but indiscipline letting them down. dan evans is up against stan wawrinka in the first round at indian wells. you can listen to commentary on 5 live sports extra and via the bbc sport website. earlier, johanna konta reached the third orund with an impressive win over hsieh su—wei of taiwan, 6—0, 6—2, showing signs perhaps that the wobbles at the start of the season are behind her as she looks to climb up the women's rankings, she was as high as four in the world. meanwhile, super league champions wigan warriors have suffered their fourth defeat in five games at the hands of bottom club huddersfield. kruise leeming scored the opening try of the game for the giants, his team—matejoe wardle the second

well. my capable of going for my country, why not? i watch my fellow athletes competing and it is more of cani athletes competing and it is more of can i do it? that's all from sportsday. we'll have more sport throughout the weekend. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are anne ashworth, associate editor of the times, and benedicte paviot, uk correspondent of france 24 and president of the foreign press association. many of tomorrow's front

pages are already in. the daily mail reports that many councils are preparing to raise parking fees over the next year by charging more for town car parks and increasing the cost of residential permits. the times leads with the shoreham air crash after the pilot andrew hill was cleared of 11 charges of manslaughter. the main picture on the daily telegraph is of shamima begum, who left the uk tojoin isis in 2015, who's baby has died in syria. meanwhile, the main story is brexit—related. the paper claims theresa may's hopes of a last minute brexit breakthrough appeared to be doomed after a "total break—down of trust" between london and brussels. the ft weekend says philip hammond has urged eurosceptic conservatives to back theresa may's brexit deal, saying its approval would allow him to release billions of pounds for stretched public services. 0ne direction star liam payne is backing a daily mirror campaign tackling knife crime.

he says he was robbed at knife—point when he was 12. and the guardian takes a look at school funding, it says teachers are doing the work of canteen staff and cleaners, while essential funds are raised by parent donations in what it calls a "funding crisis". so, a variety of stories making the front pages. let's see what our reviewers make of it all. 0nce once again, brexit is the big votes looming next week. and the daily telegraph and met leaves theresa may facing brexit humiliation, reflecting the blunt response to his latest tweets. well, the point is that earlier today we had yet another speech of this prime minister. i think it was a double play, a double plea to the mps to

really vote for her withdrawal agreement. struck with the eu, the only one actually on the table after that terrible shockingly huge defeat of 230 votes. and here we have what is very sad and quite concerning, and that is this unprecedented step of michel barnier actually posting in real time. i think it is his frustration and really saying that talks showing and exposing the talks have gone extremely badly this week between the uk and the eu. 0f have gone extremely badly this week between the uk and the eu. of course we know the attorney general‘s visit to brussels was cancelled earlier today but to have this in a sense donald trump like exchange in real time those really badly. we had an evening standard jeremy hunt the

blame game against the eu and all of this is far too public. so if indeed theresa may faces as he telegraph says brexit humiliation, today with michel barnier and possibly on tuesday, and then with the vote of no deal off the table on wednesday and then an extension on thursday, while a crucial week we are about to add into with what has happened in the last few hours. absolutely. we are going towards yet another height 110011 are going towards yet another height noonin are going towards yet another height noon in the negotiations, through one end and maybe as many as three crucial votes. of this story is extremely downbeat. it is if the deal is already dead. and indeed, it has —— in her speech earlier today, theresa may warned that britain may never leave the eu. and it is coming back to this whole issue of having entirely overlooked the problems

that northern ireland would pose to out that northern ireland would pose to our exit from the eu. it was not an issue ever raised during the referendum and has become almost the issue that dominates the negotiations. and it seems as if there are all these political figures racing around and none of them able to sit down to any kind of meaningful discussions. it is supposed to be a meaningful vote next week, how can it be? it seems as though theresa may is going to be coming back. looking at the telegraph story will be heard for michel barnier, and the response we have had from the brexit secretary that essentially these hopes that she might be able to rank some last—minute concessions out of the eu have essentially failed. to do it is ata eu have essentially failed. to do it is at a public way today in grimsby was not necessarily... i think she was not necessarily... i think she was trying to reach out to the population and say in her mind mps

they represent their constituents. but we know the vote was not that huge one way or the other. clearly, brexit one. but clearly this country is extremely divided. what i thought was interesting was michel barnier it said to the camera that he is not interested in the blame game but he is interested in is a result. this very much echoes and i spent a bit of yesterday with the french minister for of yesterday with the french ministerfor european of yesterday with the french minister for european affairs. and she very clearly said yesterday to a law of the french business community that really there was a deal that was struck back in 2017 and for the last 12 months, there have been spent over the backstop. so there will is a frustration not in france only but across the other european countries and disbelief and sadness and frustration that is coming tonight so badly. i did not know what can be done over the weekend.

there were rumours
