an absolutely amazing season. having found the perfect rhythm on the pitch, klopp led the celebrations off it last night. his — a club moving in the right direction. dan roan, bbc news, anfield. supporters and players partied long into the night. some fans remember the last time their club were league champions, for others it's a sweet first—time experience. judith moritz has been speaking to some avid supporters. yeah! screams ofjoy. when liverpool last won the league, andrew dunbar was ten. now, he has a daughter of nearly the same age. they celebrated together as the final whistle blew and today, it was still sinking in. daddy was about the same age as you the last time they won the league. can you imagine waiting till you're daddy's age for it to happen again? no. yeah. we're going to win again, aren't we? yeah. this is it.
10:31 pm
we'll win every single time because they're just amazing. i thinkjurgen klopp, you know, he's started a dynasty. i think he's built something so good that, you know, i'd like to think this is the first of many that we'll get and again, we're back on our perch. at anfield today, they were basking in victory as well as sunshine, enjoying this new moment in their shared history. the long league drought has coincided with the years of grief which this community's suffered since 96 of its supporters were killed. liverpool is a club which has experienced the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. hillsborough happened the season before the team last won the league. they felt its impact personally, and there are those who believe it had a lasting effect on the pitch, as well as off it. # three lions on a shirt... it was meant for england, not liverpool, but when the lightning seeds sang about 30 years of hurt, the phrase could've been written for the club,
10:32 pm
triumphant in europe but eluded by league glory. the impact of hillsborough was felt, you know, in the terraces and on the pitch massively. it changed the whole ethos of the club. it tookjurgen klopp to... not... what he did i think that was great was he didn't try and reinstate that dream, hejust brought a new dream. i think everyone still had belief and, of course, we had some fabulous times in between with the european cup. there's no club in the world i would ever want to support more than that. win, lose or draw — i don't care, i love supporting liverpool. with official celebrations on hold because of the coronavirus risk, tonight thousands of fans have massed at liverpool's pier head, against public health advice. the city's mayor says he knows they want to party but has urged them to carry on their festivities at home. judith moritz, bbc news, liverpool. that's it. now on bbc one, time for the news where you are. have a very good night.

10:36 pm
lots to get through. with me are benedicte paviot, uk correspondent, for france 2a and michael booker, deputy editor of the daily express. well, it's great to have you with us on this friday evening. lots to go through. let's start with the front page of the daily telegraph. obviously, big news today in the uk, a stabbing in glasgow in scotland. the headline reads asylum—seekers shot dug next shot dead after six shot dug next shot dead after six shotin shot dug next shot dead after six shot in glasgow. the daily telegraph is reporting that an asylum seeker went on a rampage over lack of meals, lack of food where he was. now, some context, of course is that asylum—seekers during the pandemic in glasgow, some of them were moved to this hotel given that hotels are not being occupied at the moment. there's been a bit of a discussion from course, we don't know the motive, but benedict, there has been
10:37 pm
a discussion, hasn't the? around the treatment of asylum—seekers in the uk, of course, there has been attention on this given what's in glasgow. yes. so, this is a very unusual attack, certainly for scotland, others on this trip attack, the telegraph is indeed reporting that it's the knife man was an asylum seeker from it's the knife man was an asylum seekerfrom sudan, it's the knife man was an asylum seeker from sudan, an it's the knife man was an asylum seekerfrom sudan, an asylum seeker who in fact stabbed six people, including a receptionist and a handyman, says the telegraph, and that he had complained this attacker had complained in the last few days about the fact that he was hungry, he was very hungry. now, the context is that there was a demonstration last week and about the treatment of asylum—seekers in fact in glasgow if i understand, of course, i should mention this happened at the park inn hotel that's not being used as a hotel on w. george st, and there is
10:38 pm
a? evoked in this article about whether it's a kind of copycat attack after last saturday's reading terrorist attack. of course, no terrorist attack. of course, no terrorist link so far has been underlined. in fact, terrorist link so far has been underlined. infact, it's terrorist link so far has been underlined. in fact, it's been ruled out by the scottish federation of the police. but a huge police presence that swarmed to the incident and there is a question thatis incident and there is a question that is evoked here that has been evoked before, and that is whether asylum—seekers from war—torn countries are being adequately monitored during this pandemic. what we learn from this article also is that this man was, according to one witness, mentally unwell. that is not confirmed. these asylum—seekers we re not confirmed. these asylum—seekers were taken out of the flats that they were in and put into this hotel. they are in a different
10:39 pm
environment also that their money was stopped since they were being fed —— said being fed three times a day, so we were getting a picture which was not at all clear few hours after the incident. michael, let's bring you in on that, or to covered a lot of ground, but we must stress that we still don't know what the motive was. no, we don't. but it was worrying when we saw what was unfolding this afternoon as we cite programme social media and other various media this afternoon, bearing in mind what happened in reading just a few days ago, but you've got to praise the response of the police, the police officer was injured in this, there has been a lot of talk over the last few days, in fact, pretty patel was in the daily express today talking about attacks on the police, and how we should value them, and i think the response is as benedicte said with heavy— handed police, but response is as benedicte said with heavy—handed police, but also response is as benedicte said with heavy— handed police, but also this officer who ran towards the attacker we are told to try and subdue him
10:40 pm
and hats off to him and hope for a full recovery for those injured. let's move on to the cover of the times, the front page of the times, one of many front pages that talks about holiday season being back on. of course, the weather is very nice here in the uk at the moment, but the times amongst other papers as saying that britons are about to be given the go—ahead to have summer holidays and more than 15 countries in a significant easing of the government's travel restrictions, talking about a traffic light system. michael, let's start with you on this, do you think that once this announcement is made, brits are going to be heading to the airport and logging onto the computers and booking the first flight computers and booking the first flight out of the uk?|j computers and booking the first flight out of the uk? i think you can see from the scenes down in bournemouth and brighton in places like that, people are keen for a bit of sunshine and relaxation after what's been a very very stressful time. there's going to be many families who have had bereavement over the last few hellish months who believed they need a break, they
10:41 pm
need to get away, there is still going to be a lot of people who don't particularly will be fancying ants, but there will be quite a big u pta ke ants, but there will be quite a big uptake in foreign holidays. i think there's going to be some bargains out there to be got as a result of this, but at the moment, we've got the likes of france, germany, italy, croatia and spain saying that portugal is not yet on the list of destinations, and they are also hopeful for some sort of reciprocal agreement with australia and new zealand. but, yeah, ithinka agreement with australia and new zealand. but, yeah, i think a lot of people do value their holidays. we had a grueling time. a lot of people just want to get out of the house, but to go to the next stage and get abroad is going to be something that abroad is going to be something that a lot of people want, to commend a bit wary of them actually, i thought they were going to send me a few quid this year, but looks as though imight quid this year, but looks as though i might have to put my hand in my pocket. benedicte, do you think this is too soon? well, it's too soon if people are going to go to beaches whether it's here in the united
10:42 pm
kingdom or france or portugal or spain or wherever it's going to be are not respecting any social distancing. we will see. that is about responsible behaviour, now, we should underline then that what we have seen whether it's in bournemouth or somewhere in wales, and if you in notting hill i gather last night apart from being very unpleasant for the people that actually live there of the swarms of people descending, making a lot of noise, usually drugs, alcohol and other irresponsible behaviour, so some moderation i think is needed. it will be interesting to see when this traffic light system is as it is we are told by the paper by the times to be announced next wednesday, i understand the review is on monday, but the announcement on ministers for this traffic light system will actually categorise countries into red, amber and green, so countries into red, amber and green, so that green and amber countries
10:43 pm
one can go to, but the big question of courses will that quarantine once one is back here go, and i understand that that will be announced that it will and a few days before the end ofjune will be the announcement, and perhaps it will be the 4th ofjuly independent and more that way than one, but we will need to be responsible, and at the moment, we are seeing a lot of pictures, whether it's in the presser in the media on social media ofa presser in the media on social media of a small minority that are not behaving, well, they're behaving selfishly, and this disease, this virus is here to stay, so if it could all be a little bit more careful, then we can all enjoy ourselves and not endanger anybody else, and that last part is key. michael, i will bring you back in, because the front page of your newspaper tomorrow actually touches on some of prime minister, but are risking lives, the public is one
10:44 pm
that taking liberties may lead to a rise in virus deaths. the prime minister warning younger people not to put the lives of elderly at risk, but is it too late now, is the messaging now going too far?|j but is it too late now, is the messaging now going too far? i don't think it's too late. i think as benedicte with income it's a very small minority of people who are being reckless with us. see, some of the pictures don't look great. being reckless with us. see, some of the pictures don't look greatm wasn't just a few the pictures don't look greatm wasn'tjust a few people in bournemouth. again, some of those pictures can be deceptive. we are told by the experts that being in the open air is it's less likely to pass on the disease. we do know that there's not as much of that disease out there at the moment. we should give people a break. they didn't look as though they were all over each other and these things. yes, i think there is a selfish minority. he think boris johnson had to say that again today, just get that message across that you know, the young people, we
10:45 pm
understand that they are less likely to die of this thing than older people and they do have to look out for their older relatives older friends, other people in the community as well. i think it's good that he's got this message back out there, butjust going back to it, i think the broad majority of people are very careful. a lot of people are very careful. a lot of people are wearing the masks, people are still social distancing, but it's time that he's got this message back out there. benedicte, it's interesting, i will go global with us. interesting, i will go global with us. we are broadcasting to the world. what we found out yesterday from the us and the briefing from doctor found she and the vice president, mike pence, is that actually half of the new cases of coronavirus in the states are actually infections of under 35. so actually, that group is rising in terms of infections in the states, for example. yes, it does, but that if we think we have had mixed m essa g es if we think we have had mixed messages here and suddenly we have about masks and face coverings, i haven't yet seen the prime minister
