hello and welcome to bbc news here in the uk and around the world. let's have a look at what we are going to be looking in the first additions of the national and international papers. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me, the editor of politico's london playbook, jack blanchard.

we are expecting jo tanner, a political commentator, but we are yet to make a connection with her. let's have a look at what has been coming in so far this evening. "up the ladder with his lover" — the front page of the metro shows a picture of leicester's mayor apparently breaking the lockdown rules, as his city becomes the first in the uk to be put back in to lockdown. the guardian warn of more local lockdowns to come. they say parts of kent, london, north wales and scotland are still dealing with significant covid—19 outbreaks. "the us and europe condemn china for tightening its grip on hong kong" with its new security law. that's the lead story on the front of tomorrow's financial times. same picture there of protestors in hong kong appears on the japan times‘s front page.

it also reports on china passing the controversial new security law. it's all about borisjohnson‘s new £5 billion economic plans in the i. they say his announcement brings the biggest change to planning laws since the war. however, the daily mirror say that the prime minister's new deal isn't enough to prevent the loss ofjobs after a stark warning from the unions. promising news in the times, who report that the bank of england's chief economist says britain's economy is rebounding sooner and faster than expected. and the daily mail say that police will investigate failings at two hospitals where dozens of babies died or suffered brain damage after an investigation by the newspaper. right, so not that many first editions in yet and one of our guests not in yet, so, jack, let's start with you. cannot kick—off better! let's start with the
