i would just urge students if they are thinking about deferring, is not to make that decision just yet. gather as much information as possible before making that final determination. a lot will change between now and september. they will go through an airport—style scanner, which measures their temperature. a lot‘s changed already here in bolton, as they've tried to keep students on campus. fortunately i have cleared so i can go through. what we have done is followed all the social distancing guidelines and rules for workplaces, and indeed for social space to ensure that that students have got a covid—secure environment. these students are valuable, especially if international numbers fall, so universities need to ease their anxiety. it is stressful and it is, it is confusing at times, but, there is not, you've sort of got to get on with it. you do pay a lot of money to be there, you are put in a lot of debt afterwards. the idea of going through all that and not quite getting what you hoped

for is is a bit disappointing. danjohnson, bbc news, loughborough. china has warned britain not to interfere in its plans to impose tough national security laws in hong kong. beijing has expressed strong dissatisfaction with the uk government, after boris johnson promised millions of people in hong kong a route to citizenship if china goes ahead with implementing the new laws. our diplomatic correspondent, james robbins, reports. china is determined to end all this, protests in hong kong, led by democracy activists, certain beijing will use new security laws to ensure they are crushed completely, possibly tried and jailed on the mainland. now boris johnson possibly tried and jailed on the mainland. now borisjohnson is threatening to stimulate a mass exodus from hong kong by relaxing the visa rules for many with british overseas passports. he wrote in the

times, if china imposes its national security law, the british government will change our immigration rules and allow any holder of these passports from hong kong to come to the uk for passports from hong kong to come to the ukfora passports from hong kong to come to the uk for a renewable period of 12 months and be given further immigration rights, including the right to work, which could place them on a route to citizenship. prominent young activists in hong kong are delighted, believing any threat to its future wealth is power. being in hong kong isn't about being pro—china or not, it's about being pro—china or not, it's about right and wrong, it's about how we can save hong kong as a globalfinancial how we can save hong kong as a global financial centre. china is outraged by britain's promise of a new home for hundreds of thousands, potentially almost 3 million hong kong people. translation: no foreign country is the right to interfere. the groundless remarks by the uk grossly interfere in hong kong's and china's internal affairs. britain's last

governor of hong kong, chris patton, praises boris johnson's governor of hong kong, chris patton, praises borisjohnson‘s toughness. it's an example which doesn't happen frequently in politics where doing the right thing, fulfilling our moral obligations, is also in our national interest. thursday is the 3ist national interest. thursday is the 31st anniversary of the tiananmen square massacre of democracy campaigners in beijing, marked in hong kong each year until now for the usual planned visual has been banned, with china blaming coronavirus and activists calling that an excuse to disguise the future beijing plans for them. james robbins, bbc news. and finally, at the start of this pandemic, an nhs medic working with coronavirus patients made the difficult decision to send her young daughters to live with her sister to protect them. she didn't see them for more than two months, but now they're back together, as daniela relph reports. hetty and bella had not seen their mum for more than two months. this was the surprise reunion. mummy!

it was an amazing feeling. it's so hard to describe, i thought my heart was going to burst. it was brilliant. i think it was a really good choice because she had to help and save people's lives. 0h, bless you. suzie was working in intensive care at the queen elizabeth hospital in kings lynn. knowing the risks she faced, she decided to move her daughters to peterborough to live with her sister. i needed to put more hours in at work during, obviously, the pandemic. so, yeah, we both agreed that it was for the best. as hard as it was, it was definitely for the best. the separation was due to lastjust a month. the pressures of working in intensive care saw it stretched to more than double that. the girls say they now don't want to let their mum out of their sight. daniela relph, bbc news. that's it. now on bbc one, time for the news where you are.

have a very good night. welcome to bbc news. hello to our viewers in the uk joining those around the world as well. time for us to have a look at some of the first international and national papers.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political editor of the daily mirror, pippa crerar and the deputy political editor of the spectator, katy balls. tomorrow's front pages starting with. .. 50,000 — the striking number on the front page of the metro, as the uk coronavirus death toll reaches a grim milestone. leading scientists are warning that borisjohnson‘s two—week quarantine plans make "no sense" — according to the times — and that the government's own chief scientific adviser has distanced himself from the policy. the financial times reports on the prospect of a no—deal brexit coinciding with a second wave of covid—19, putting

supplies of drugs — already in short supply — in further jeopardy. alongside a photograph of madeleine mccann who disappeared in portugal 13 years ago — the telegraph lead on what they call the biggest break yet — after investigators identified a german sex offender as a prime suspect. the mirror's front page carries the same story — showing a photograph of the camper van in which the suspect was living when the girl went missing. and under the headline british solidarity for black lives matter — the guardian shows a photograph of some of the thousands of people who gathered in london today, protesting against the killing of george floyd. welcome to you both again. let's begin with a paper we didn't have in the run—up. the washington post. the developing news in the past couple of hours and that is the

raising of the seriousness of charges against one police officer in particular, derek chauvin, and the george floyd case. and three other charges against police officers who were looking on. what do you make of these developments now, eight days, nine days after the event? obviously we have seen a and nine days of demonstrations across the united states and a vast majority of these have been peaceful. but some have turned violent and some american cities, cu rfews have been violent and some american cities, curfews have been imposed and the political stakes have really been rising for governors and local leaders. as well as by donald trump in the white house. what is happening is the washington post have this story about charges against derek chauvin, elevated to second—degree murder. in the three other officers who would with him when george floyd was dyed and

killed in minneapolis, previously didn't have any charges facing them and they now face charges of aiding and they now face charges of aiding and abetting murder. the seriousness of the charges has dramatically escalated. it is hard to get away from the sense this is a direct response to the scale of the anger that has erupted since george floyd's death. of course... that has erupted since george floyd's death. of course... that is the point. 0ver floyd's death. of course... that is the point. over the last few decades, it doesn't always appear that justice has been decades, it doesn't always appear thatjustice has been done. four police officers when it comes to what they are charged with. yes. this instance has led to protests throughout the world. but one of the huge frustrations is the fact that we have seen similar incidents in the past and in america, particularly, and often a sense that justice is not done in the same way oi'

justice is not done in the same way or there is no clarity or clearness, often it is very opaque process and the additional charges was a replica of the charges and the one case of the office already charged, second—degree murder. that's repping gumbo charges. intentional but not premeditated. i think it does show that they do need to show they are taking this seriously now and say they should have been shown they are taking it seriously from the beginning. but i do think it has to the sense that such a level of anger that there is pressure on the government to show they are doing everything they can and trying to show there is a process. also extraordinary when you look at the sta nce extraordinary when you look at the stance behind this latest event where george floyd lost his life, how few police officers actually live in the area they are policing 110w live in the area they are policing now for so so i think derek chauvin lived in an 85% white area, well away from the areas he is policing ona away from the areas he is policing on a day—to—day basis.

away from the areas he is policing on a day-to-day basis. and like many american cities, it is almost a degree of segregation there. they start crossing racialized but it is a social economic divide ultimately and often have large black communities by comparison with the wealthy white ones are fairly deprived and there is very little interaction between the two communities. anybody that knows anything about that will node recognised at a basic starting point, people need to be able to mix with one another and to see how each of the live and friends and other committees to be able to bridge those gaps and it is difficult we have such segregation that exist in minneapolis and other american cities. also very hard that one of the attorney general was saying tonight that it will be very hard to get a conviction in the case, there's a limit when officer in minnesota to be convicted in a civilian case, so even if the

charges have been escalated, it is not an easy legal battle and it will be adjusting to see that the anger isn't abating on the streets, it is a systemic thing come. as we were saying, spread right around the world. the front page of the metro main story, 50,000 coronavirus death toll. about that, john boyer guh, the british nigerian born actor, speaking to thousands in hyde park today. yes. a protest they had today it come initially in hyde park when he moved to westminster around parliament square. we don't have the precise figures but thousands of people, a lot of young people coming out and everybody wanted to show solidarity in times of what is happening in america. also questions about things in the uk. initially i think the main figures here if you look at this he heard a similar showing in france, where people came out, so it shows the story and the

whole episode has had such a cut through and i think you can feel the anger no matter what country you're in. afew anger no matter what country you're in. a few scuffles today some of them caught on camera but nothing like we have seen in the united states. do you think that is reflected in the way these demonstrations and protests have been policed here because let's be frank, it is breaking all of the rules about lockdown and 36 people i think only allowed to gather any one time. normally at the moment. yes. the premise to make the point today in his press conference that obviously peaceful protest is something that in this country we clearly support he was concerned about social distancing and to be frank, people's anger is so that really there are other concerns about health and that, i saw some of the scenes on tv earlier, it is something people feel here as well and while the scale may not be the

same as in the states, the reservations between the police and a black man in particular in the uk have not been easy for very long time as well and i feel i'm not in a position as a white man to really impart much knowledge or experience of that but i can only report what i have seen in a what i'm told. it certainly for a very long time is spent a large scale concern amongst black men and young men in particular that they are being targeted by the police and the way that their white peers might not be. it may not be on the level that it is in the states, or widespread but wishing i could ourselves that it doesn't also exist here. a picture there on the ft. main story. prospect of no doubt break it gives fear to shortages. normally they have a six week supply of drugs. it

will be difficult to feel if there isa will be difficult to feel if there is a second wave given a no—deal brexit if that transpires. yes. it is bringing a few things together the story. ultimately the there is a sense that we are past the peak, the big concern to government and elsewhere is that are we heading into a second peak. we heard neil ferguson, formerly the government scientific adviser, yesterday saying september could be the time when we start to see it. if it does come to pass. a lot of people hope it does not number that is the hope in the government, but given that we have run through so many of the medical supplies we need. it is time to start building those again. that no—deal brexit is a factor in this in the supply chain breaking down. things in that sense. and also i thinkjust the added factor here is in the article mentions things like ppe. the uk government is on the back photo. were in a situation

where every country is in a
