for politics & public service at glasgow uni and kate andrews, economic correspondent at the spectator. as the uk government defends its decision to quarantine those travelling from spain, the metro leads with uk prime minister boris johnson's warning that a second wave of coronavirus is under way in europe. that story also on the front page of the financial times, with spain's prime minister pedro sanchez calling the uk's decision ‘unjust‘. the telegrpah has been speaking to the boss of london's heathrow airport who has urged the uk government to provide coronavirus tests on arrival in a bid to rescue the summer holidays — the paper also carried a picture of the duchess of cornwall sporting a liberty print face mask on a visit to the national gallery in london. the mirror's lead is the news that police in germany, investigating the disappearance

of madeleine mccann 13 years ago, have been excavating an allotment in the city of hanover. and the guardian leads on calls for 1.5 million additional school meals to be offered to pupils in england — the paper also covers the final day ofjohnny depp's libel trial against the sun newspaper — at which his former wife, amber heard, spoke publicly of her heartache. and today's international new york times reports from the french vineyards forced to sell their alcohol to be used in hand sanitiser. so let's begin. quite a few in already, should we start with the international ft, because that really sets the canvas for or that sets the picture for the europe fight against the coronavirus spike? the one that we could see a

bubbling up of covid cases across europe. it's not the first time ever that he's referenced a potential second wave, according to the financial times on monday he was on a conference call with others saying that there were already preparing for a second wave in autumn. already on the uk government minds and government throughout europe in the world. the question is how much is tourism really affecting the so—called spike? we are not really sure where it's going yet and how much of it is somewhat organic to a virus that we know very little about? does not appear in sourcing the case of spain that one of the reasons the virus is spreading to young people in particular is that they were not adhering to social distancing but we have not seen evidence that the increase in infection is going with the increase in death toll but worrying because we re in death toll but worrying because were just about to the point where european countries are trying to open up as much as possible to
10:49 pm
kick—start their economies and get that v—shaped recovery. we are looking a second wave of infections and this would be more difficult. and the warning is that other countries could have these spikes which are going to affect quality rules for other countries in europe as well, and a very short notice. spain is leading the way commits 14,000 new infections in spain over the past seven days but it's not uniquely the case across europe, we see rising cases in france with 4000, 6000 in germany and 4700 in the uk so on par and with the portion of the warning so strongly against the second wave and the role that travel might play in that. the problem is the advice has been slightly confused for a lot of people. wear mass, don't wear a mask could stay at home or go on holiday, that's the problem and the government is reacting so quickly to these spikes. let's look at the new york timesjust for our

international viewers, because as a lwa ys international viewers, because as always a featured story on the front page, heartbreak for winemakers. thousands of litres of wine are being refined to make hand sanitiser. a heartbreaking story for many who are well—versed in wine and those who are not that well—versed but to enjoy a glass from time to time to think about this wine being shipped off to make something that is frankly so sterile and related to medical health as opposed to our enjoyment it feels like quite a long time ago we were able to enjoy the simple things in life. i will say when you can't meet, when nurses apply and you can't sell what you have it's good news that you can repurpose that material. whilst i think that emotionally it's a bit of a tough story to swallow, no pun intended, i do think the fact that
10:51 pm
they're able to repurpose it to make hand sanitiser is positive and if there were that second wave began this question marks around that. you area this question marks around that. you are a printer list, you are notjust enjoy the odd glass, you are not fooling anyone at all. let's go to the other story on the front of the new york times, the facemasks having an designed moment. i see colourful ones around and even won some but have never seen one made of pearls yet. yes, this is a really exclusive pet facemask the designer of which admits that it's full of holes, but of course it's not designed to be worn alone worn over the top of a more medical styled facemask which just shows you there's no end to the reach of capitalism when it comes to a crisis like this. you can buy anything at any time for any purpose. let's go back to a uk paper. we have a second wave sets boris and it's all based on the
10:52 pm
information that people have been coming back and that's why our rates have been rising because of people coming back from holiday and perhaps not socially distancing in the way that they should. let your the context here. the uk government try to justify a rather sledgehammer policy to bring back in the 14 day quarantine with a matter of hours that british tourist authority and said they would have to experience that when they got back and people that when they got back and people that just better that when they got back and people thatjust better holidays now find thatjust better holidays now find that they have to quarantine for two weeks when they return. try to justify that because throughout the crisis were the things the government has been criticised for its acting slowly, commanded out of lockdown and in and out of trouble quarantine. spanish officials say this is unjust and unfair in the virus is under control. you have competing narratives. only got time for one more, or to bring in the telegraph and the skits of the heart of the tourism and travel industry is saying might be the way through.
10:53 pm
heathrow boss calls for tests at airports, this is being used in jersey and is 85% accuracy rate with double negatives. talk us through what he is proposing. if you stick a panic demand for the head of heathrow airport saying the pain in the economic point of this crisis is already in place injersey and the economic point of this crisis is already in place in jersey and that you get testy when you come off the flight you get testy when you come off the flight get tested again perhaps on day five workday eight on your way home. if you prove negative again in your quarantine would end up at that point. you get to go back to work within six or 90 it's rather than the 14 day quarantine. note of caution though it's working in jersey only had 930 people through the airportjust now, just jersey only had 930 people through the airport just now, just a jersey only had 930 people through the airportjust now, just a company hours that takes a breath through at heathrow from a far bigger cases there. and the test is going to be under £50, is that paid for by the individual or the government?- probably being picked up by the
10:54 pm
government. one other story on the front page of the telegraph, social divides driving a k shaped recovery. which really says that if you are in working yourjob is secure you are going to have a much better way out of there's pandemic then u nfortu nately of there's pandemic then unfortunately the people working for themselves, or in those vulnerable industries. we've got a different letter of the alphabet for every version of what can happen, is going to bea version of what can happen, is going to be a v—shaped recession and then you now with a k shaped recession. that means the middle classes are keeping theirjobs that means the middle classes are keeping their jobs and that means the middle classes are keeping theirjobs and working from home and seeing their savings going up home and seeing their savings going up or actually financially substantially better off than they we re substantially better off than they were before the crisis. as people in more traditional roles for front line jobs are really suffering. one final thought, pressure on the chancellors to keep the furlough scheme going longer than the autumn? there's pressure but the question about whether or not to do it in the bank of the bank of england were
10:55 pm
back such a move. for the big question mark about that. a very unique kind of economic contraction because people are saying inside because people are saying inside because the fear of a virus not because the fear of a virus not because of lack of confidence in the financial system and we are seeing that have a huge impact in certain sectors like hospitality and tourism. and we have heard and talked about this later on, we have a big western theatre production closing for the foreseeable future because social distancing just won't work in the entertainment industry they say. bread or press enter to make arts, comedy and all of these things which are so part of our cultural life here in the uk are under threat. the case being made for a very specific amount of government support targeted at these key industries still to be done. thank you both very much indeed. seeing you again about 35 minutes' time, but for now that is our first look at the papers.
10:56 pm
hello there. today was a much better day than yesterday, with regards to more dry and bright weather. many places stayed dry and saw sunny spells well into the evening time. but there were a few showers and it was quite windy too. northern ireland, scotland saw most of the showers, parts of northwest england as well. most of these showers will tend to die away overnight, become confined to the very far north of scotland. most places dry but it will be cooler than it was last night. the reason for the unsettled weather, this area of low pressure which will continue to affect the far north of the uk, bringing strong winds again to northern scotland. the northern isles will see further showers or longer spells of rain here tonight. but further south, winds a little bit lighter and we should see lengthy clear spells as well, and with that cooler air mass, it's going to be a chillier night to come. eight to 10 degrees typically for most of the but even lower than that in a few sheltered spots. so, for wednesday, then, not a bad day at all across central
10:57 pm
and southern areas thanks to building pressure here, so we should see some sunshine, bit of afternoon cloud tending to develop. a better day as well for the north of scotland. still quite breezy, one or two showers. and low pressure will sweep into western areas to bring some cloud and light rain to northern ireland, around some irish sea coasts. a warmer day in the south, 23 degrees, but it's still quite cool in the north. that area of low pressure continues to move across northern and western parts of the uk on thursday, but high—pressure really starts to establish itself over the near continent, so for much of england and wales, a dry, sunny, increasingly warm day. the rain continues to spread its way northwards, becoming confined to scotland in the afternoon, so some sunshine developing for northern ireland and southern scotland. temperatures creeping up a little bit here. still quite cool in the north, much warmer for england and wales, 24 to 27 or 28 degrees. and then we really tap into that warm air on friday, coming up from france, spreading right across the country. so, a hot and sunny day for many, particularly england and wales. just the threat of some showers
10:58 pm
or thunderstorms encroaching into northern ireland late in the day. bit of uncertainty to this, but for most, you really will notice those temperatures, with increasing humidity as well. the high 20s for many. low 30s for the midlands and in towards the southeast. so, that is the last day ofjuly, a brief hot spell for the last day ofjuly, as it starts to turn cooler for the weekend, as thay atlantic westerly sets in — bringing some showers or long spells of rain.

this is bbc news with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. britain's prime minister warns there are signs of a second wave of coronavirus in parts of europe — as he defends his decision to quarantine all travellers arriving from spain. what we have to do is take swift and decisive action where we think the risks are starting to bubble up again. 50 days. i feel like i have. we report from a hospital in texas, where doctors say they're adopting a new approach —— to treating covid—19. president trump's attorney general defends sending federal
