another suggestion, may the 26, june the 12th. how do we reconcile the briefings that we see on tv and the hello and welcome to our look ahead dates that we often see in the newspapers? i think there are to the what we'll be reading on tomorrow's front pages. with me arejohn stevens, deputy political editor of the daily mail and sienna rodgers, editor of labourlist. ministers edging for people to get back to work and everyone wants the scoop. the data might be considered at the moment. that's completely let's begin with the the ft, which reports on the fall of global understandable, but as john markets today as a new flare up developed in us—china relations, at the moment. that's completely understandable, but asjohn said, i'd am not sure it really reflects adding to worries over the economic impact of the pandemic. the mood of the comfrey. —— country. the telegraph talks about lockdown measures easing suggesting a study showed the uk was the most the ‘two—metre‘ rule could be relaxed in order to get people back cautious of comparable countries in to work and children back to schools. it also reports on the government reaching its testing targets relaxing distancing measures, and it despite questions about how it showed that seven in ten said they achieved its success. would be nervous about leaving the the sun looks ahead to what it house when the lockdown does ease. calls ‘red better days‘ that's not quite a stunning success as the paper reports the prime minister wants the country it actually. they will have to check to go back to work after the late may bank holiday. the independent asks because white—collar workers might
11:32 pm
the question, did hancock really get to the stay—at—home for an awful pass the test after it was announced lot longer. offices set to stay shut the government had provided over 100,000 tests today. for months, those white—collar the mirror leads with what it calls workers who can work at home will be asked to continue working at home. the virus class divide, saying covid—19 kills people in poorer areas at twice the rate that's necessarily not —— not of those in wealthier ones. so let's begin... necessarily. some people can do that john from home. if you work in a patiently warehouse, you have to do that. those people we privatise going back will to work and we believe could work from home, ithink to work and we believe could work from home, i think we might see a change in the longer term. people have got used to working from home. i think some people have quite enjoyed the flexibility when we do go back, there will be demands. i johj say fiefiba” ' johj say we talk; gm sf . sf johj say we if”- .: grfv we if . if think that is going to be the big, iohj sa bi“ '

it's never to be the same again. johj say we if”- .: ,‘ that e if . if sienna, after this end, whenever that may be, might we have all gotten used to working from home and johj say we agofljer: stay 1at e if . if my things really start to change in the way people who can work from home maybe want to say they don't wa nt to home maybe want to say they don't want to go back to the office?” think a lot of people will have noticed the kind of, sometimes it makes a really positive difference. especially if you got caring responsible he 's. in some ways, that flexibility of having different hours and working from home is really helpful. on the other hand, i'm lucky because i don't have any dependents and i to haven't had children running around the flat and disturbing my work every time i call up disturbing my work every time i call up an mp. they have children begging them to get off their phone. they have —— them to get off their phone. they have — — to them to get off their phone. they have —— to those of the different challenges but i think it's important to remember some of us are more privileged and the people
11:34 pm
working in retail and factories and warehouses, those are people are most likely to contract the virus because they do have to go into work. those will be though workplace is that open sooner. i'm gonna move on to the times. i'm aware you might not have seen the times so i'm going to read the headlines. i won't test you. it says fever test for commuters. the first paragraph says commuters. the first paragraph says commuters will be asked to take their temperatures before leaving home under proposals being considered to make public transport safer. boris johnson considered to make public transport safer. borisjohnson will announce these plans on thursday. obviously, i've seen this article. you have it. what struck me was we would be asked to ta ke what struck me was we would be asked to take our own temperatures. it will be done according to a trust system. would that work? it's not that dissimilarfrom the
11:35 pm
system. would that work? it's not that dissimilar from the situation at the moment. we got the advice that if you have a high temperature oi’ that if you have a high temperature ora that if you have a high temperature or a fever, you should be in your house. i'm not quite sure what's new in the story, but we won't see an army of people at train stations with thermometers checking people. it's not to be compulsory. i think people will be quite sensible. here's one of the interesting points. deeper into the article, it says it will be compulsory temperature checks at airports. there will be confirmatory tax —— compulsory text, but if you go on a train you would have to do your own test at home. i think that's a situation people expect. i think people are being quite surprised. in january, people were surprised there we re january, people were surprised there were no checks at airports whereas there were in other countries right from the very beginning. from the first reports of coronavirus. so i
11:36 pm
think that was seemed quite natural to people. i think what's interesting is that it's a similar situation we facemask. it's more about people being assured they can leave the house and they should feel safe. it's really the government trying to ease people's nervousness about leaving the house as i said earlier. so many britons are going to be nervous about that when the lockdown lifts, so it's more about that kind of feeling that actual reality on when they have it or not. deep into the daily telegraph. the whole country was talking about tests. 100,000 tests, he the target despite questions home gets. he said 122,000 tests are being carried out. 40,000 were home test kits. did 100,000 get past, john? they did. whether people were testing
11:37 pm
themselves or going to get tested, there are —— they're still tests. back at the start of april when this target was made, we were kind of lagging behind other countries. if you look at the number of people being tested in the population. we we re being tested in the population. we were really low down in those tables. at times, we were doing fewer and fewer tests rather than building the numbers. matt hancock set this big target because he wa nted set this big target because he wanted a step change. he wanted to shift the system and get there. if you look at the bigger picture, we have 220,000 tests and if you look at those, they are right at the top. the bigger question is the government able to sustain this? obviously they've had this massive approach. he succeeded but can they keep this going for the days to
11:38 pm
come? as they ease restrictions. sienna, the labour party had called repeatedly for increased testing. now that 100,000 have been met, given the fact somewhere home to testing kits, labour must be welcoming that. care starmer has been quite careful in his criticism of the government —— care starmer. he said he wants to be constructive and helpful because we want to get through this crisis as safely as possible. —— kier starmer. there are around 80,000 tests that have been completed, but around 20,000 not necessarily processed and conducted. there are a lot of tests that are just home kits and they been sent off to private homes and they haven't been completed from beginning to end, so it's probably not what people would think of when
11:39 pm
they say 120,000 tests have been completed. look at the ft now. i remember a couple months ago, it was a tough time for everyone. food was not on the shelf and people worried about the supply. now europeans are urged to feast their way through state, chips and cheese gluts. france is calling on the french to do what they can for cheese. not a bad inc. to do. not people would need to debate that. one of the problems in the uk is that without restau ra nts problems in the uk is that without restaurants being able to open, its not being sold so there's a campaign a p pa re ntly not being sold so there's a campaign apparently in the uk encouraging people to start buying stakes so we don't end up with massive mounds of meat. sienna? obviously, i'm a
11:40 pm
vegetarian so i can help. all the cheese and chips are doing my best. —— can't help. this food would have otherwise been served and restaurant. the fact that they say producers are trying to persuade people to increase consumption of food at home, i find it quite funny because everyone is talking about how much they're eating at the moment. the daily mail, princess charlotte, age five out on her the kitchens have been aaron. the kitchens have been cooking about 1000 meals a week for vulnerable people in the local area. both princess charlotte and prince george have been helping make those liberties. thank you so much both for talking to us. that's it for the
