black man call was made, just a black man walking around. and it comes after many murders and in the missive covid—19 whereby we know they're in the us and here the uk, it is disproportionately affecting the black community. this deep, deep pain that is coming out. i watched a bit of the moral service and george floyd and what happened to him and the pain that his family feels has come to represent something much wider about racism, structural racism. yes about police battalion and there are demands but defunded the police and moving that money towards more new services, etc. but a wider stance of we have had enough and we need real structural change. asa what is so striking after years after segregation is just how
10:46 pm
segregated blacks and whites are in the united states in terms of poverty, education, even geographically down to where they live and how few white police officers, in this case the four who are facing charges, did not even live in the areas they were policing. and you are seeing the tensions writ large right now and how america is digesting this. this is why this is reaching new heights. and it is because we have footage of the awful killing. as we saw, that is why his last words, "i can't breathe was what have become almost mythic about the crime among processors. and beside this memorial service it was very powerful when al sharpton invited the audience to sort of pause for eight minutes 43 seconds, the time in which there was a knee on mr floyd's. and this was an attempt to capture that moment of
10:47 pm
such pain that they could all be feeling and so the community was coming together as one for that there is very little mention, almost an undertone that president trump by contrast has abuses whole response to try to bang the drum about wall and orderand to try to bang the drum about wall and order and point the finger at the few violent protesters but in the few violent protesters but in the meantime there are communities that have been very deep pain right how. that have been very deep pain right i'iow. “ that have been very deep pain right now. -- vaughn and order. his former defensive terryjim matus and also he has had criticism from his current one mark esper. in the independent, the uk please must tackle racism in its own ranks, this has overtones of the stephen lawrence merv and her when much boston police was described as institutionally racist. but what i wa nt to institutionally racist. but what i want to —— when do much about the police was described as institutionally racist. it is interesting german but that the

transport secretary grant shapps criticise the london mayor back in april the ist adjusting mask should be worn. and now he is recommending, effective will be mandatory that they are in public transport. and michael gove also set i think it was in march or early april that the government was not telling people to wear masks. this is somewhat of a u—turn and it seems eminently sensible for people to be wearing masks on public transport. and it's something that many other countries have put in place a long time ago. the question then is why is this only happening now just like the question then is why is this only happening nowjust like how slow we have been to put the track and trace programme in place for instance? why has it taken so long for them to come to this conclusion? and also for them to change their mind, what is going on with the science here and what advice are they getting? it is frustrating because we could have been doing this months ago. asa do you know why
10:49 pm
now? is interesting because i suppose it was tracking there, the advice initially was don't bother with facemasks because they do more harm than good because perhaps they would almost act as a placebo effect and people would go around and ignore social distancing and stick their faces far too close to people when they're in the shops. and then after much robbing from people like sadiq khan about the necessities of having it on one to transport... —— much lobbying from people exited co nfe re nce much lobbying from people exited conference up now much lobbying from people exited conference up now they want it... they could find you £80 under current guidelines in the same way that you can excite fines now for facemask. i think it is certainly quite striking how far it has left and changed the subject in the early days it was you are free to wear masks if you want but we are not

going to recommend it, they hummed in hot, they wondered about whether they were going to have checks and people arriving in airports and now it is hard when toughened up but nobody's business. travel quarantine, almost compulsory. —— they hemmed and hawed. but for exceptions for the elderly, for children and for those with breathing difficulties. that is going to slow things down when people are getting on the tube or bus as well. let's go on to the guardian and go back to the guardian because we see that frontpage pursed of all but we now look at the during oui’ of all but we now look at the during our field of all but we now look at the during ourfield nhs of all but we now look at the during our field nhs test and trace on fully operational until september. fa iza fully operational until september. faiza quizzed about this is a very troubling read and it has taken... from a couple of sources. one estimate zoom call and some kind of meeting with the chief operating officer. another leaked e-mail from
10:51 pm
circo were involved in delivering this. and what we are hearing is despite borisjohnson saying that we would have a world beating service by ist ofjune which he said in pmo to the opposition leader keir starmer a couple of weeks ago, that there are bumps in the road, it is not working smoothly, and the operating officer himself saying do not expected to be world—class until september, october and another very worrying aspect. circo is a private company operating saying and the quote is, they want to cement the position of the private sector. they do not expected to run smoothly in the first few months but our focus on cementing the position of the private sector and that will concern a lot of people. asa this goes against a lot of medical advice. do not release and ease the lock on until this test and tracing system is absolutely ready to go. chris

whitty did say the other day that we are in dangerof whitty did say the other day that we are in danger of confusing the biased security over its, the covid of words and there are a number of those and all this. what we're seeing is nonetheless the government taking the decision, political decision granted, to really start using the lockdown in parallel with trying to get this track and trace up trying to get this track and trace up and running. i will make two quick points on the guardian report. one, we shouldn't instantly have our eye brows one, we shouldn't instantly have our eyebrows raised about the private sector helping and being a positive force because an example on testing if public health engman and not try to centralise if public health engman and not try to ce ntralise everything if public health engman and not try to centralise everything to such a great extent early on and shutout treaties and offers from the wax, then they would be doing so much more test earlier on by having these private webs of band running helping the system and national efforts was a — — private the system and national efforts was a —— private labs up and ready. and will destroy not in these reports is
10:53 pm
the advice citing drawing on the private assume normal conversations in which officials are saying is going to take time to reach maximum efficiency. and you expect that. —— private exuma calls. there have been hundreds of e—mails we to the wrong addresses, it is not started off as well, and the chief executive rupert sims saying that he realises that there will be some teething problems but it has i got off to best start. also to remind you about matt hancock laughing when he was questioned a few disco about bringing this for about test and trace trying to hide the dominic cummings story what you thought was laughable at the time. but that's one side. how to hotspots, the ft. faiza, have you book your trip to greece, turkey, or spain yetand
10:54 pm
book your trip to greece, turkey, or spain yet and are you company you are going to get there? no, i have not and it was interesting reading this because a lot of the discussions about who will be able to go where in the summer is of course one about the infection rate and obviously we have had particularly bad infection rate in this country and the death toll in this country and the death toll in this country. and secondly about this country. and secondly about this quarantine. now the discussion in this piece is effectively about the kind of holiday corridor between certain countries. the problem is that priti patel the home secretary early on this week and very much emphasised this to be quarantine if you come back to this country saying that the rest now and i'm not sure but the size... 20 seconds, asa. what do you think on this because the states are different?” what do you think on this because the states are different? i have been much keener to visit my own family around the country rather thanjetting off family around the country rather than jetting off elsewhere. family around the country rather thanjetting off elsewhere. this is the subtlety between social
10:55 pm
distancing and the easing of economic easing. all right, asa thank you very much. and faiza we will be looking at those papers in about 45 minutes' time. again with fa iza about 45 minutes' time. again with faiza and asa for our reviewers here on bbc news channel, not for our reviewers on bbc world. but he of those stories are covered on the website and for viewers watching in the uk... as i have been saying a lot of the british papers have come out and named this prime suspect in the madeleine mccann disappearance but because of privacy, very strict privacy rules in germany where we are broadcasting at the moment, we have not been able to do that. we will be back in a few minutes' time with more news and as i say in 40 minutes another paper review. bye— bye.
10:56 pm
hello there. after just experiencing afterjust experiencing the sunniest spring on record, it's rainfall most of us is going for. will be get some over the weekend? yes for some but not for all. many was he cloudy skies, windy and cool at times but the rainfall will be very hit and miss. last week and was about high pressure into the south of scandinavia influencing the story. this weekend it's low pressure in southern scandinavia. that low will arrive later on my ahead of its sunny spells and scattered showers but not all of us are going to see those showers and if you do dodge them you will have cloudier skies with the wind strengthening through the afternoon, 30—40 mile an hour gusts. scattering showers in the northern ireland and england but more widespread into the north—east of scotla nd more widespread into the north—east of scotland and the winds here will
10:57 pm
strengthen in excess of 50 mph, that is going to make it feel quite cool by the middle of the afternoon. just highs of 9—13 degrees, we could see temperatures peaking at 17, 60 three fahrenheit. that low pressure will sink its way steadily southwards along the east coast. strongest of the winds to the west and the southern flank of that well. dustin went potentially around the 60 mph mark which is quite unusual for earlyjune and mark which is quite unusual for early june and with mark which is quite unusual for earlyjune and with summer trees in full leaf, that could have an impact for some it will be windy across the northern half of the uk, went to for some. likely to include sudden scotla nd some. likely to include sudden scotland down through northern and eastern england for a time. brightening up into the far north of scotland, not seeing much notable rain at all across southern england but a disappointingly cool day with temperatures around the mid teens. now, the low tens to ees, the isobars will open up for the second half of the weekend. sunday later
10:58 pm
winds, still rain clinging onto that east coast and it will be an issue that the day for some elsewhere is where all the cloudy skies with the later winds should feel just that little bit warmer, high spec up to 18 degrees. but if we look at the rainfall accumulations, after nothing notable rain at all, over the weekend, the darker blues are suggesting that we could have as much as 20 mm may be more. around one inch of rain except onto the far south where rain will be very minimalat south where rain will be very minimal at all.
