a vigil is held to remember the victims of the reading stabbing attack, as police charge a 25—year—old libyan with three counts of murder. british holidaymakers are set to be allowed to travel to much of europe this summer without having to self—isolate for m days. an extra time goal from harry maguire sends manchester united past norwich into the fa cup semifinals. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are sian griffiths, education editor at the sunday times, and john rentoul, chief political commentator at the independent. tomorrow's front pages are in. the observer goes with a warning from the labour

party that unemployment in britain could soar to levels not seen since the 1980s unless ministers boost support for businesses struggling because of the lockdown. the express turns its attention to the economy, too. the paper leads with a pledge from the prime minister that he'll dramatically accelerate construction to boost economic recovery. the mail on sunday says borisjohnson has promised to spend tens of billions of pounds to save the british economy from disaster in the wake of the coronavirus epidemic, including the building of hospitals, schools and new housing. the telegrpah says sir mark sedwill, the uk's most senior civil servant, will announce his departure as early as this week under borisjohnson‘s plans for a shakeup of the civil service. and the sunday times leads with the news that the housing secretary robert jenrick failed to inform his most senior planning officials that he had met and texted a tory donor before he overruled official advice and approved a one billion pound property deal.

more on that story in just a moment. john and sian, let's start with the best photograph of this crop. the prime minister doing press ups for the mail on sunday. sian, what do you make of this picture? it's very interesting. it's boris johnson doing press ups on the front page. echoes with an he's given to the paper where he is saying —— it goes with, despite still recovering from covid—19, he is now as fit as a bush because my dog and philippines. —— a bush's dog. full of beans. he has billions of plans to boost the economy, promising to create 10,000 extra prison places, rebuild schools. all of that —— about

creating jobs for the workers, many of whom we think we will lose their jobs at the end of the furlough scream. very optimistic, very upbeat headline. —— furlough scheme. i think the key sentence is if we want to get to a world where we are as close as normal as possible, i don't wa nt close as normal as possible, i don't want a second lockdown. very much trying to take us back to a pre—cobit existence in the autumn —— pre—covid. a very optimistic outlook. the mail on sunday is saying the prime minister is signalling a clear break with the policy of austerity. politically, he

has to, doesn't he? because of the people who voted for him. yes, also because the situation we find ourselves in is very different from after the financial crash. the government does have to maintain spending and unfortunately it did with the furlough scheme. the political arguments are going to break out, and the unemployment turbulence starts to go up. i can almost imagine it dropping down to the carpet to show off his press ups to counter these rumours that have been around for quite a while, but he hasn't fully recovered. —— that he hasn't fully recovered. —— that he hasn't fully recovered. —— that he hasn't fully recovered. he's trying to push back against all that and say that he's back to his

bouncy, effervescent self. let's move on now to the front page of the sunday times. it has another story about the housing minister robertjenrick. quite complicated story, but it's got sort of new details. give us a summary. got sort of new details. give us a summary. yes, this is the second week that the sunday times has been looking at this scandal. it's a story about the housing secretary robertjenrick. he still very much under pressure over his handling of the tory donors property development. this week, the sunday times is suggesting that senior officials begged jenrick to block this £1 million property deal, which is backed by the tory donor richie desmond. jenrick overruled

objections to book it through —— pushit objections to book it through —— push it through. i think it's very difficult forjenrick, this pressure on him. i think it would be interesting to see... borisjohnson has so far very much back to him, but if the pressure keeps up, how long can he stay in post?” but if the pressure keeps up, how long can he stay in post? i must say that we've had a government response, government officials saying an obvious a story that there was a thorough decision—making process. the question of bias, the secretary of state read the report and took advice from officials throughout the process. so that's what they're saying in response. but john, matt want to was saying —— sian was saying there is sustained pressure on robertjenrick. how do you view his position at the moment? first of all, externally grateful that you went to sian first to

explain this extremely complicated story. yes, robert jenrick explain this extremely complicated story. yes, robertjenrick has been under considerable pressure for some time. notjust over this story. i've been to look at this print works i. there's nothing there at the moment. there's nothing there at the moment. the crucial point that a lot of people overlook is this application was nullified because robertjenrick did acted —— acted unlawfully. but the papers are out to get him. he is in trouble over setting up a company to develop his house over planning permissions. all sorts of... he seems to get an to all sorts of scrapes. about a minister being and the headlines for either ten days or

14 days, it's beginning to catch up with the minister. useful rule of thumb. can we go to the other main story of the sunday times? fears of the first local lockdown after covid spikes ina the first local lockdown after covid spikes in a city. this is a story by our deputy political editor caroline wheeler. i think it's very interesting because what she suggests is the government is preparing possibly to impose a first local lockdown. there's been a surge in coronavirus cases in leicester. there's been more than 600 places in two weeks, some of them links to food production plants in the city. i think as we move into what boris johnson is calling a new normal, i do think this is going to probably be one of the ways government is going to try and stop any possible

outbreaks of infection. basically, we've seen it in other countries. we've seen in china, where they lockdown present particular cities or towns. instead of having a natural lockdown —— national lockdown, the idea is you just lockdown, the idea is you just lockdown leicester. and bring it under control there without having to shut down the rest of the country. i think this looks like this could be where the first attempt to try the strategy and the uk is carried out. it will be interesting to see the results. we know five schools have been closed in leicester because of outbreaks, andi in leicester because of outbreaks, and i think there's quite a lot of concern about what's going on. john, is there any question over the legislation for imposing local lockdown? yes, it's not clear whose responsibility that would be. whether it's the secretary of state,

matt hancock, or whether it should be up to the local authorities. but as sian says, this is clearly the model for the future. if we have a test and trace system that is efficient enough to identify these outbreaks as they occur, then obviously the way to control the virus in the medium—term could be by local lockdown 's and rigorous testing and tracing. let's go to the front page of the sunday telegraph. rather dismaying had headline. you can't win. no. we've all stayed indoors for nothing. yes, so this is an interesting story. it's a kind of battle of the scientists in a way. this is a scientist who's a

professor at oxford, and arguing that lockdowns could cocoon the public from germs and leave them more vulnerable to new viruses. the theory is if you stay indoors, you stay away from any possible risk of infection, you actually weaken your immune system. so when you do go out and encounter some new bug, you will be very very vulnerable. it's an interesting theory. i suppose it goes along with this idea we should never lean our houses because we need exposure to germs. —— clean our houses. she is also associated with disunity which is that if we —— this unity. we could have all caught this virus and we would have developed some sort of immunity for enough people have caught it. so, yeah, we're like clumps of trees waiting to be set ablaze, she says. i'm not sure i agree. that's quite an image!

do you think that this is what this is, john? the idea of herd immunity we heard so much and march rearing itself again? no, ithink it's we heard so much and march rearing itself again? no, i think it's more like my mother's theory that a few germs are good for you because you develop resistance. there is such a thing as good, clean dirt and we need more of it. obviously, it's true that if people are locked away at home, then they're not picking up small infections. they may become more vulnerable. that's rather a long—term process. ithink more vulnerable. that's rather a long—term process. i think the immediate risk from coronavirus is rather more important than any of those effects. but i'm not some kind of doctor at oxford university. let's go on to the observer. its

main story is a labour warning about jobless totals. it's a bleak story. it warns that unemployment could hit 19805 it warns that unemployment could hit 1980s levels unless supporters support struggling businesses. labour is calling for more intervention. slightly different from borisjohnson. intervention. slightly different from boris johnson. the intervention. slightly different from borisjohnson. the figures are alarming. a million people could be added to the currentjobless total, which is currently 2.8 million, u nless we which is currently 2.8 million, unless we get extra support from august. that would give us —— take us to an unemployment peak. under margaret thatcher in 1984, the jobless total was only 3.3 million. if these figures are correct, that would go over that level. labour is very keen to protectjobs in those

sectors that still haven't opened, so we're talking about things like beauty salons or the leisure industry. we still haven't seen gyms and swimming pools open. nightclubs also. it wants some sort of intervention there. there's a real contrast between the different sectors of the economy, as the observer points out. the prime minister is preparing to announce plans on tuesday to build houses, hospitals, schools. yet the things badreddin abedlla —— sian i talked about are the things you have been so vulnerable. yes, and probably will be vulnerable for some time to come. we won't be going back to exactly life as it was before. there'll be element of social distancing. unless there's some sort

of miracle vaccine developed very quickly. in which case, those industries will remain vulnerable for some time. much the same goes for some time. much the same goes for the airline industry and tourists industries. you can't imagine those industries going back up imagine those industries going back up to the pre—coronavirus levels for some years, and i think that will require some pretty major economic dislocation. let's go back to the sunday telegraph. its main story, prime minister in whitehall revolution. this is a story that borisjohnson revolution. this is a story that boris johnson apparently is revolution. this is a story that borisjohnson apparently is planning this whitehall revolution. dominic cummings, his senior aide, this whitehall revolution. dominic cummings, his senioraide, has this whitehall revolution. dominic cummings, his senior aide, has a very colourful quote in this story. he said a hard rain is going to fall
