to lift its lockdown, with millions back in work after eight weeks of restrictions. gatherings of up to 10 people are allowed in spain. the british government has given more details of its plans to relax the coronavirus restrictions in england. it wants people who can't work from home to return to work from wednesday, but said they should avoid public transport. president trump has denied that the system broke down at the white house after a member of his own deputy‘s staff tested positive for the coronavirus. all staff working in the west wing have been told to wear facemasks at all times in the building. the us justice department is considering federal hate crimes charges over the death of unarmed blackjogger ahmaud arbery in georgia in february. the case sparked national outrage when video of the death emerged last week.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are deputy leader writer at the sun olivia utley and lance price, political commentator and former labour party director of communications. tomorrow's front pages... let's start with the telegraph, and it says that borisjohnson is urging the public to use "british common sense" amid questions over his strategy to ease the lockdown. the financial times calls it "a day of confusion". it says the prime minister is facing a backlash for, it says, risking the safety of workers in his bid to get them back to work. the metro focuses on some of the loopholes within the pm's plan, with continued uncertainty over how people can see their parents. the daily mail welcomes the fact that people in england will be able to see loved ones again, albeit while observing social distancing. the times focuses on the same angle. it says people in england will be

able to play sports or socialise outside with a friend or family member, under the new rules. the safety of workers must be put first, says the mirror. it says there are particular concerns over people on the lowest incomes. the common sense message is on the front page of the express too. it quotes the prime minister, who warned that it's a "perilous time". and the guardian leads with criticism from the labour leader, sir keir starmer, that boris johnson's plan fails to give the public "clear directions" on a pathway through the crisis. so let's begin... hello to both of you. we will look at the times first. the headline, see friends and family affect lockdown. i have highlighted the word friends with and s on the end because it looks at what the times is doing, looking to the future. not focusing on this see friend, singular, at the moment. yeah, i was

quite confused as well as taupe whether it was about meeting one friend. does that mean one friend at a time or doesn't mean you have one friend for the whole of the period? it seems to me and one friend at a time. the times does seem to be looking ahead and notjust at the next couple of weeks. one of the details is the government is looking at ways to reintroduce large gathering such as weddings, which is interesting. it's quite hard to see how that will be possible with social distancing, but it's encouraging that they are looking at it. another detail what i think will go down quite well with a lot of people is that sport will be reintroduced behind closed doors. it does sort of feel like it's notjust about getting the economy started even though that's hugely important, but also getting that fabric of life and things that make life worth

living again. it's good to see the government is putting effort into getting those back. thanks olivia. lance, anyone who watched our previous bulletin would see spain. family reunions already happy ending. i'm sure there are some british people watching that report thinking if that's happening in spain, why can't happen here? and you can get an indication that that is obviously on the horizon, but not at the moment. yes, the times, as olivia said, has been looking ahead to what may happen rather than what has been out. a lot of business depend on how the virus behaves and how we behave, but we will... we we re how we behave, but we will... we were a little bit behind spain and italy and the progress of the viagra 's italy and the progress of the viagra ns __ italy and the progress of the viagra 's —— the virus. one advantage is we can look at how other countries go about easing their lockdown 's and what the consequences of that may be. one of the reasons that the

government have given themselves some flexibility of what may have been coming up, so we may have weddings again, although the traditional wedding photograph may look a bit different than from the past. for the time look a bit different than from the past. forthe time being, there's this issue where we can see one friend, one relative. so choose which parent it's going to be. people are already asking questions. if you went to the park and you had all your friends lined up around the park,. we might have huge numbers of divorces given how much time people have spent in lockdown. olivia, picking up from one of lance ‘s's points. but in people into lockdown was all quite simple if draconian. stay at home. looking through different european countries, each country is doing it slightly different. in france, there's a limit of how far someone can 100 km.

germany, it's state—by—state. you can see families and partners, but no friends. you can see perhaps some of the problems that borisjohnson and his ministers are in. there is no single way to get out of this. absolutely. i think the strategy over the last couple days, it is true that the message now has to be a little bit more nuanced. very draconian, stay at home, don't go out for any other reason. that sort of blunt approach is basically appropriate for this next phase. trying to get a balance right between asking british people to use their common —— common sense. that is sort of necessary. it's just quite difficult when you pair that with police was slapping big find on you if you break the rules. i don't

know, i don't think it quite works. we will look at the guardian. johnson providing no clear direction on the lockdown. i can see has a —— that's different from his coffee mug. obviously following this day by day. lance, you know the labour party very well. the guardian is digging up on criticism. very unusually, the leader of the labour party had a broad broadcast. to use that to hone in on the weaknesses in the presentation the government has had up until now. the fact that it leaves so many unanswered questions. sol leaves so many unanswered questions. so i think both of us who are somewhat relieved to have a very forensic leader of the labour party

was able to hone in on the details and recognise actually that one of the challenges that borisjohnson has is that every single one is going to be very close and exposed for everyone to see. olivia, can i ask you for your thoughts on that? it kind of looked like a prime minister's broadcast its mps the opposition leader. i agree with lance. it's quite a relief to see an opposition leader who can do that, who is able to forensically analyse what the prime minister says. it's actually useful and constructive criticism and guidance for the government. itjust does show the merits of having a strong opposition again. it's notjust good for politics, it's good for the whole country to have someone holding the government's feet to the fire on this. so i'm pretty relieved to see keir starmer doing what he's doing. there was an article in the new york

times calling on borisjohnson to recruit former prime ministers into advisory council to bring back people with experience into his cabinet to raise the calibre of those around him, given the fact this is a national crisis. yeah, i can see a lot of logic in that. i'm not a big tony blairfan can see a lot of logic in that. i'm not a big tony blair fan myself, can see a lot of logic in that. i'm not a big tony blairfan myself, but every time i've heard him coming up with a strategy for what he would do for easing lockdown for example, there seems to be a lot of sense in it. i think it would be quite a good time to bring in some people with some experience. there's a lot of good will, i think, towards the government. everyone knows it's an unprecedented situation. it's very difficult for boris johnson to unprecedented situation. it's very difficult for borisjohnson to do the right thing. he had to put together this document very quickly. soi together this document very quickly. so i think it could be a good time to bring in some experience, some expertise in. layout, and america there is an unofficial club. ——

lance. to go visit victims and raise money. hoover was called on over world war ii defeated europe. might there be some role for prime ministers, including tony blair?m just something we don't do in this country and perhaps we should. i think both tony blair —— when he was prime minister have masses of experience. the intervention they made, i think all of them what the government to succeed. they want us all to be able to pull together on this. but when we see those voices of experience speaking as they do, i'm afraid it shows some of the weaknesses in the cabinet that we have at the moment. they are relatively new to theirjobs. they're in theirjobs because prime

ministers want brexit. the daily mail headline, we are going to meet again. i thought this is what the queen said a month or so ago in herfirst speech, but clearly the mail wants to focus on not the current lockdown measures, but on the future. it's as families can see their loved ones, bad news, it must be outside and two metres apart. that's focusing on not today's measures, but what might happen in the next two stages. yeah. and i can see why. i think it's been done or not i think they've done a very good job on a long as not only farming and advising and keeping morale. i think it's so important for the public now to see messages like what the mail and the times are putting out. looking forward to the next few weeks and months. i think it's

really important for us to know that we will go back to normal. i think it will be easier for us to follow these very devonian rules in the short term. —— draconian. contrasting what the mail says, we are going to meet again with the tone of the news conference boris huntjohnson held. suggesting people will really have to get used to not being able to hug their families will really have to get used to not being able to hug theirfamilies in different households for a very long time. contrasting that with this positivity of the mail in the times. yes indeed. one of the most telling and the news conference was on boris johnson said it was possible there will never be a vaccine. therefore we could actually never get back to what we understood to be normal and that some form of social distancing, some form of response to the virus may have to be with us for a very, very, very long time. this headline

in the mail is a very optimistic and if you like. it's also looking ahead to what may happen in one thing that the government is considering is allowing a social bubble, so too households can come together. a family could probably have one set of grandparents. just picking up on that news conference, you can see professor chris whitty jumping in that news conference, you can see professor chris whittyjumping in at the end saying he was confident a treatment would be found, giving the fa ct treatment would be found, giving the fact that vaccines have been found to almost every single epidemic and history before hand. he did try to end that on a higher note. talking about higher notes, just going back to earlier points. is it thejob about higher notes, just going back to earlier points. is it the job of newspapers over the last two months and in the coming few months to be optimistic even if there are times in meetings where everyone around the table must be incredibly pessimistic on certain days?

definitely. i think maybe those of the days it's more important for newspapers to show a bit of optimism if at all possible. it feels like both the times in the mail really struggling to pick out the good bits of what boris johnson struggling to pick out the good bits of what borisjohnson said on monday night. but i think as i said before, it does help people to follow the advice. the idea that life will go back to normal is so, so important for us. we will probably be talking about the sign in the minute. —— the sun. this live alone, at home, not able to see your grandchildren is really tough time and they need that right now. i'm seeing a different monitorfrom the right now. i'm seeing a different monitor from the viewers. you are slightly shaking her head, lance, or just listening closely?” slightly shaking her head, lance, or just listening closely? i can understand that newspapers want to tell their readers what they want to hear, which is they is good news coming down the line. but it can

cause terrible problems. anyone watching this programme on wednesday night would have seen the thursday morning newspapers, which were all about happy mondays coming and how great it would all b. suggesting we would get a a lot more freedom than when been given. there's a real risk that if people are too optimistic, they are actually messy leading —— misleading their viewers. leaving their readers with the impression that they can do things that actually they shouldn't be doing. you both had a word on that. the daily mirror is next. boris johnson must protect workers. this is one of the key points. can workers go back safely with yellow absolutely. the point that it's all

very well for white—collar workers, mainly office workers, who can work aat mainly office workers, who can work a at home. it could stay working at home for months, even years, perfectly happily. whereas a lot of people working in manufacturing, blue—collar jobs, people working in manufacturing, blue—collarjobs, i will have to go in. ithink blue—collarjobs, i will have to go in. i think it would be really seriously bad if we ended up in a situation where there is a class divide line between those in blue—collarjobs divide line between those in blue—collar jobs who divide line between those in blue—collarjobs who are coming in and getting a risk of the virus and middle—class people who can't. i think the government really needs to sort out, and i think the union will hold their feet to the fire on this, how to keep those people who have to go into work safe. we've been seeing plenty from the tuc on that. the financial times looks at wuhan,

the epicentre of the epidemic. they reported that wuhan, there's been another spike, small spike of cases. we we re another spike, small spike of cases. we were following when china was opening up more and yet there's been another cluster of cases in milan, a relatively small one —— wuhan. 17 new infections reported in china yesterday, if we can rely on figures coming out of china. i think the important thing about it is that they bought to a point and they are well ahead of us in terms of infections and dealing with it and coming out of it, but they are also well ahead of us in terms of tracing and tracking the virus and chasing those people it may have been passed on to —— tracing those people. one of the good things about the news coming out of both china and south

korea, where there's also been a spike, both cases, they have a pretty fair idea where that come from and although there are challenges, they have measures in place to try and contact those who may have been infected. lance price, thank you for that. olivia, you will be very happy to know we are going to the sun. grand day out. i will let you explain the point on that. i'm fascinating the headline here, the sub headline, hugs of her grandkids. it is the sun saying you will not just be grandkids. it is the sun saying you will notjust be able to see and over 70 from june the 1st, you will actually be able to physically touch them? that actually be able to physically touch them ? that is actually be able to physically touch them? that is not something i've seen reported anywhere else. in the times, there is a little bit on how the government is trying to road map some sort of strategy for perhaps, hopefully, if things go to plan,

there are so many gifts. over 70s will be able to be in contact with grandchildren. i think this is quite tough. people living in cramped cities, not necessarily people closest to them. it's also been incredibly tough for widows living com pletely incredibly tough for widows living completely on their own. there was a port we saw yesterday which brought tea rs port we saw yesterday which brought tears to my eyes, a 70—year—old woman calling and saying if coronavirus doesn't kill her, not seeing her grandkids will. it may seem like an overreaction to some of us, but it's not. the effects of not seeing your love ones for weeks and months on end has a serious effect on mental health and i think it's very important for the government to prioritise especially old people being able to have some sort of contact with people they love.

there's obviously a huge difference between being able to see someone, standing two metres apart from someone, and actually being able to hug them with the potential danger in transmission through hugging. is there a danger in putting hugs her grandkids from june the 1st if that doesn't come out, that is raising optimism and then dashing it? if 19 days' time, that doesn't happen. optimism and then dashing it? if 19 days' time, that doesn't happenlj days' time, that doesn't happen.” think the whole next few months, there's going to be a lot of optimism in whatever we do. the prime minister already said we are hoping to open restaurants, bars, etc in the future. but we will have to pull back. i think the public will have to be grown up about the fa cts will have to be grown up about the facts that a lot of our hopes will be —— overand facts that a lot of our hopes will be —— over and over again. we don't know where this virus will go, we don't know what will happen, and we can get very excited about restrictions being lifted. and there's a chance they will be. lance? hats off to olivia for her

defence in the subhead of the newspaper she will responsible force. i think it is pretty irresponsible for. at the very least, it should be the possibility of hugs her grandkids, but as you see yourself, i can't see anything and any documents i've read that suggest physical contact to grandchildren, whether it's one or both, is anything like on the cards in sucha both, is anything like on the cards in such a short space of time. you see mum and dad as she wakes in the car. olivia, any other loopholes you can think of? i think this headline is pretty good at pointing out the uncertainty and tell some of the rules. i do simplifies that the government —— sympathise that it's difficult to work out every single

aspect in a face —— the case of a few days. i think people will be making quite a lot of fun of the rules over the next few days and weeks as it becomes clear how quite how mad some of these things are. why are you allowed to meet your mum in the park but not in her garden? you will obviously come into contact with fewer people than in the park. there's a lot of madness there. final word to you lance. that's absolutely right. one was dominic raab, he was in a model this morning trying to explain this —— in a model. we haven't really talked about it in this hour. the geographical diversions. there's a golf course on the border between wales and england that can't open because the rest are in wales at. short game then. thank you to your

both. that's it for the papers this evening. hello and here's your latest sports news. there's been a positive announcement for up earlier leads clu bs announcement for up earlier leads clubs which could see the return of elite sport in england from the 1st ofjune. albeit from behind closed doors. laura scott has more details. does mean for the ports who are provisionally a milling for return injune or provisionally a milling for return in june orjuly, that provisionally a milling for return injune orjuly, that seems like that might be able to go ahead. clearly, the government said that 1st ofjune clearly, the government said that 1st of june date clearly, the government said that 1st ofjune date could be delayed if necessary progress isn't made before then. we don't yet know. we do know that elite sports are now asking

government for some guidance. we expect that could come as soon as tomorrow, because clearly the next phase of the individual training is of some sort of a return to small group training. we expect that would have to involve social distancing, but there was nothing in today's strategy that tackle that issue of professional sports training. but clearly, it is good news for sports who are planning to return injune like the premier league. but that seems like that could still go ahead. at least six clubs are pause to play the remainder of the season at neutral venues. one of the solutions to stop gathering outside homeground. it's said they won't support those clubs to persuade the authorities to reconsider having matches at home and away venues if the season doesn't resume and england. golf courses and other

sports clubs in scotland won't be opening for now, despite news to reopen and england. golfers can book around england from wednesday, but the message in scotland remains the same. it is news that has lead to frustration, but the scottish government says work is ongoing to resume sport as soon as possible. here's our sports correspondent chris mcglocklin. home not to golfers, but to walkers. this is how glen golf course in glasgow. usually ina day like glen golf course in glasgow. usually in a day like today, these greens would be absolutely packed. the frustration from members here and from cultures across scotland is if it's ok to play golf 120 miles that way, then why not hear? a question that clubs simply can't answer. there's a lot of frustration. their

support we receive has been absolutely fantastic. clubs opened in england and their close up here. i find that very frustrating. the word from westminster is from wednesday, golf along with other sports like tennis and england, is backed with social distancing restrictions. how can golf be safe and england but not safe in scotland? the uk government has made the decisions about where they are in terms of the spread of the virus, and they have given advice specifically for england. i'm very keen to work with all supporting bodies to look at how we can bring sport back as soon as it is safe to do so and the guidance is in place to do that. really keen to work with scottish clubs and other sports. last week scottish golf told members to wait.

clu bs clubs like how glenn and others across the country are ready. for now, we watch and wait. chris mcglocklin, bbc news. as more details on all of the stories on the bbc sport website. that's it from us for now. bye—bye. hello again. we have a few more cool days on the way before the weather warms up days on the way before the weather warms upjust in time days on the way before the weather warms up just in time for the weekend. at the moment, a lot of cloud working into northern scotland. that's going to continue to bring some showers here. stays quite breezy as well across the east of the uk. so that should keep the frost at bay. across the wales, the midlands, parts of southwest england, the skies clear and this is where we will see some of the lowest

temperatures. we could have some patches of frost, particularly in the countryside on tuesday. so a chilly start. some sunshine, a bit of patchy cloud, showers across the northwest. through the day, we see of cold front. we could see some of the rain turned to snow. temperatures around 11—13d. but behind our cold front, it gets colder across the north of scotland. a colder day than monday, highs of 5-6d a colder day than monday, highs of 5—6d with wintry showers.
