people made the arguments that these debts are less tragic —— deaths are hello and welcome to our look ahead a lot less tragic because people would have died anyway. everyone to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. deserves a dignified death and at the moment, people with cover 19 in with me are christopher hope, ca re the moment, people with cover 19 in chief political correspondent care homes are not getting it and they are not seeing their family and at the daily telegraph, and dawn foster, the writer and broadcaster. their last few weeks. let's go to let's ta ke let's take a look at some of today's front pages. their last few weeks. let's go to the guardian now. a picture of the metro headlines the foreign secretary dominic raab‘s medics in spain, it should be to a comments that the current lockdown must stay in place. the i leads with the same story saying the uk has not yet reached the virus peak. colleague who died. let's talk about spain. —— a tribute to a colleague. the daily mirror's front page leads with a campaign for more we have seen spain relaxing protective equipment for restrictions, going back to the kind front line nhs workers. the daily mail calls the situation of lockdown that we have at the moment, right? yes, so the in care homes as a "catastrophe", with 92 new recorded outbreaks construction workers can go to work. of the virus in 2a hours. in this country, construction the telegraph says the government workers are still at work as long as they are socially distancing from is planning a "gentle path" back each other. there was a controversy to normal life once the decision there at the beginning, when they is taken to lift the current restrictions.
11:32 pm
we re there at the beginning, when they were being crammed onto the tube trains with other key workers, and that seems to have gone away as an and the times reports the country will stay in lockdown issue. the crisis, with easing in until at least may 7 — with the announcement spain, it doesn't show to us there being officially made on thursday. is some hope in this. we are not seeing any hope at all in this let's begin, chris and dawn. let's country as far as i can make out, but we are hoping we can within two look for so i the front page of the oi’ but we are hoping we can within two or three weeks. there was a story times newspaper. a lot of papers with this story, locked on for three about some interesting, britain has missed three opportunities to book more weeks. it's a guessing game, really, isn't it? it is not sure how by protective kits. the idea here is long we are good to stay in lockdown the eu is now stockpiling ppe kits foran in the long we are good to stay in lockdown for an in the announcement is going to be made. it's a bit more of a personal protective equipment, guessing game for the time. everyone around the eu in various countries, think they will be delayed further from thursday. in truth, three and they have figures showing any five countries, eight companies have weeks, if that's the case, and the taken part in an enjoyed preterm and times of got that on the front page, that's a pretty good number because we had three weeks, borisjohnson —— procurement scheme. this is why the u macro was created, this group told us... today today was the three of country acting together in the
11:33 pm
best interest. brexit has not yet week deadline of this lockdown. we reared its head in this coronavirus have gone past that. crisis and i wondered if this may be a way it can. this story here about going forward from this announcement the you macro procurement scheme, a thursday, after a meeting and a bit of confusion previously about where the uk position was —— cobra meeting. i do hope we get a —— the -- the eu —— the eu scheme. date because it's really hard. i am -- the eu scheme. questions about managing three teenagers here at home and it's quite difficult when i why the amount of ppe we have managed to get is very low compared got no idea when they get out. and to what nhs workers say they need, it's split according to the times amongst senior ministers about what and that we hear that actually the to do exactly, how to go about government have not been coming out of lockdown. this fit we participating in schemes. we knew they had missed one chance any guardian is saying they have seen have been seeing for a few weeks now documents that say it happened three different opportunities. obviously, in the newspapers, from the there will be questions to the telegraph's coverage, concerned about the economy and about keeping government in the briefing tomorrow about this, but i think after the people alive. there is a trade—off about when do we make people go back coronavirus crisis in the uk levels into office and generating in this out, if we do have an inquiry, it
11:34 pm
great country and generating this will be interesting to see whether economy, when candace this happen given the great risk of any back a this was the government feeling too second wave of infections. if you go too early, the risk is that the close to the eu during the crisis or virus comes back even worse, but if whether it was not confident. very you delay too long, the risk to the economy and the people's lives and jobsis economy and the people's lives and unhelpful for the government at the jobs is as great. that's the problem. best the risk at the heart moment. and, chris, the front page of this. the times says matt hancock of the daily mirror is a campaign does not want to undermine the state from the daily mirror, more at home message which has been so equipping for the nhs front line well for the by people in this workers, and it carries the photographs of some of the workers who have sadly lost their lives. country. and an interesting poll quoted by the times, 74% of us helping people in hospitals and care barely prioritise limiting the spread of the disease even if it homes around the country. we had not means spread of the disease even if it m ea ns extra spread of the disease even if it means extra cost to the economy. that compares to 61% in the united states and 54% in germany. more people in the uk think that our got the initial base to start making health is more important than our it, we had not... we are talking wealth. yes. compared to other countries, we are much more in with i think a figure of 60 million favour of having a lockdown. it may of be partly due to the fact we have a
11:35 pm
slightly less lockdown than countries like france or spain, but by and large, the general public are very keen on keeping lockdown for as long as it needs to be kept in place, and matt hancock us at the stay at home message is all well and good for the public and he is worried talking to early about leaving lockdown or lifting it to early could mean people take risks and we see a second weave of the virus. people seem very second weave of the virus. people seem very happy to stick to the nestle care a - debts government message and seem a lot listening to risk health over the economy. let's look at the express front page. we must all stay put a stop that's you too, boris. it's all right for boris johnson, isn't stop that's you too, boris. it's all right for borisjohnson, isn't it? he's got chequers to stay in.
11:36 pm
compared to a lot of people, he has a choice of where to recuperate. i think the government should be very careful to make sure that each of them is very strict leak observing the lockdown rules themselves. there was some controversy about michael gove coming out for a run and admitting his daughter had a test, which meant he could get out of lockdown. 0ur politicians - to he could get out of lockdown. 0ur politicians to by he could get out of lockdown. 0ur politicians - to - by example, politicians have to lead by example, observe, fully fibre“? all lockdown observe, fully observe all lockdown procedures and regulations, and that we don't see a repeat of what we had la st we don't see a repeat of what we had last weekend, with the medical officer having to resign because she we nt officer having to resign because she went from her home to a second home, which many people don't have the opportunity to do. chris, our politicians leading by example, do you think? they have got you. if they don't, they get in some
11:37 pm
trouble, like robert general at the weekend. it was a long wait away from his home —— robertjenrick. are you allowed to go to your home if it is your main one? jenrick said it is. chequers is, of course, the prime minister's second home, given this environment, it is no wonder he cannot state in the office. i should say, that photograph of boris johnson and carrie symonds on the front of the express was not a recent photograph. that's no photograph. now he is back, the question is can you get quick enough to fix this problem? —— that is not a new photograph. we would not want
11:38 pm
borisjohnson to come back too quickly if it damages his health. borisjohnson to come back too quickly if it damages his healthli suppose the main point here that some people want to make is that politicians need to lead by example, don't they, especially when many people in the uk are being forced to stay—at—home when they don't have a big garden, they don't have any garden. exactly, it's appalling for people in flats, they cannot get out. that is why it is quite right that the government, after floating the idea of a lockdown of public places and parks in the put that to bed. those with gardens, those in "middle class" and those in" working—class". people sitting in deck chairs and in their gardens, thatis deck chairs and in their gardens, that is not how it should be. everyone should get out and get their sunrays. this is a story we
11:39 pm
have been talking about, in the daily mail. care homes catastrophe, what they are calling it. 92 cases, new cases, in the left when four hours. three deaths over easter. and the former pensions minister calling vulnerable order people in homes "lambs vulnerable order people in homes " lambs to the vulnerable order people in homes "lambs to the slaughter". yes, it's a really, really horrible story. it's ordering from a public health perspective, the daily figures we hear only from debts in hospital, but older people at the end of their lives having family denied being around them. they would normally have the family around, but staff had contacted family. those people are dying horrible deaths, gasping for breath, very little by way of ventilation able to help them, and they are dying a horrible death but they are dying a horrible death but they are dying a horrible death but
11:40 pm
they are also leaving carers very vulnerable, who are working really hard. with little ppe to protect them and stop the spread from karis jewel the individual patients. after the hospital deaths, we will have to look at him and people died in care homes —— from carers to the individual patients. he comes back to testing. surely for stub these people dying in care homes are not being tested for cover 19. the argument is that if they were being tested, you can move them to areas where they are isolated from other people —— tested for covid—i9. where they are isolated from other people -- tested for covid-19. we cannot really tell how they have died or whether it was covid—i9. the ons died or whether it was covid—i9. the 0ns two weeks ago, the office of nestled as a - debts
