11:30 pm
hello. this is bbc news. i'm lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, a quick reminder of our headlines this evening. police hunting for a man who killed one person and injured seven others in birmingham have released cctv footage of a man they want to speak to on suspicion of murder. the foreign secretary, dominic raab, says this week is "the moment of reckoning" on brexit, as the government announces it's planning new legislation which would override agreements already made with the eu. the uk records its highest daily number of new coronavirus cases since late may, with almost 3,000 more positive tests.
11:31 pm
the health secretary says the situation is worrying. the rise in the number of cases that we've seen today is concerning. the cases are predominantly among younger people. more than 100 people are detained in belarus during the latest protests against the disputed re—election of president lukashenko. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. to what the papers will be with me, the parliamentary journalist tony grew and the journalist and broadcaster caroline frost. hello, both. quick look through the front pages. the express says borisjohnson will warn the eu that a no—deal brexit would be a "good outcome" for the uk. the times adds that the prime minister has set a five—week deadline to reach a post—brexit
11:32 pm
agreement with the eu. the financial times writes that the trade talks with brussels risk collapsing as the uk plans new legislation that will override key parts of the brexit withdrawal agreement. and the telegraph also leading on brexit, writing that borisjohnson will give the eu 38 days to strike a deal, warning that if there is no breakthrough by october 15, britain will accept no—deal and "move on". the mail says that air passengers could be tested for the coronavirus eight days after arrival in britain under plans to revive the aviation industry. the metro leads on the birmingham stabbing, with a cctv image released by police tonight of a man they "urgently" want to speak to. the guardian adds that the suspect is still at large. meanwhile, the mirror writes that footballer
11:33 pm
marcus rashford dismissed a tory mp as heartless and clueless, after he appeared to attack his campaign to feed hungry children. those are the front pages. let us begin our chat. tony, you're going to ta ke begin our chat. tony, you're going to take us straight to the ft, and its brexit. yes, it is brexit, but this is a new, potentially very serious develop in brexit talks also the government is proposing to bring forward legislation to the house of commons that would be introduced on wednesday, voted on or debated on wednesday, voted on or debated on wednesday that would in effect break the terms of the international treaty the uk signed with the eu as pa rt treaty the uk signed with the eu as part of the withdrawal agreement. i have had an hour to thing about this andi have had an hour to thing about this and i cannot get my header on how reckless this is. one of the things that strikes me about this, we act as if the eu is a passive actor in this. this is a stunning breach. the eu could say we are not coming over for brexit talks, you're not getting a brexit deal. the idea the uk would breach a international treaty would
11:34 pm
trade our reputation internationally. can you imagine the next time the uk lectures russia china on international law? the life interface. this is a donna wright, dominic cummings asked talk tough... iam dominic cummings asked talk tough... i am deeply proposed by the government's proposal. caroline, what came across to you when you saw this headline? i think this is very much a demonstration of perceived strength by the uk governments. this is why, of course, borisjohnson is the prime minister and why he is the leader of the tory party, because we had a previously or who was much, perhaps, more deferential or aware of britain's place in the world compared with the size and power of the eu and we did not seem to get very far. there was talk the brexit vote said can we need one of us in the room. they've got one of them in
11:35 pm
the room. they've got one of them in the room. they've got one of them in the room now, and it is boris johnson, and he got a deal in october and november last year we no one expected him to. at the key is hoping his luck will last outlining to get this thing across the line whether he blinks or they blank, and somehowjust the good manners that has always marked the relationship between britain and euro bull somehow discontinue, but increasingly it is looking like it is becoming quite hostile, in this sort of long and drawn out divorce. tony come only go —— when we go to the front page of the telegraph, 38 days, saying, accept it or we will move on. is exactly for the eu deterrent and ta ke exactly for the eu deterrent and take the same thing to the united kingdom. —— to turn around and stay the same thing. this is the strategy the same thing. this is the strategy the government has barked upon. i understand the need to keep your
11:36 pm
euro sceptic, exit years, we are not numbers of the eu so we cannot have your sceptics, but you're entering into... this is the uk tempting to try and get a deal with the eu, to try and get a deal with the eu, to try and get a deal with the eu, to try and prevent a no—deal, and i think the sort of belligerent tone the uk is taking is not in any way helpful, and i'm just lightly concerned the eu going to snap and this is going to turn around and say, weary connect just this is going to turn around and say, weary connectjust like you can. if you can take us to the front page of the mail and this test hope to have quarantine. this is obviously a very optimistic message. i think we have had so much chaos and mayhem over the last fortnight, we saw last week with quarantine bingo, which countries were going to
11:37 pm
stay on the air bridge list, which we re stay on the air bridge list, which were going to come off, and those of us were going to come off, and those of us who have have have seen these deserted corridors, otherwise would be packed. something has to change, otherwise this industries will defragment. in the only thing that can be presented is a test to consumers to plan their lives, and also for the aviation industry to stay on their feet. the prospect of an airport test... dominic raab is saying it is not a silver bullet. i think they have been so bruised by promising miracles and having to make these u—turns but nobody is promising the world any more. however, there is cautious optimism they can do something so people can be tested at the airport, on—site, and then tested later and be able to come out of quarantine may be a week into that two week period, as it is now, so people can come back and go
11:38 pm
into their lives, big figures for the aviation industry, all the big players in it will be able to live and see another year. tony, there we re and see another year. tony, there were so and see another year. tony, there were so much discussion over masks, you can imagine there are many people saying, where is this figure of 5-8? people saying, where is this figure of 5—8? what is the scientific basis for this? according to the story, there have been concerns about happy conservative mps, nothing to do with the science —— unhappy. i'm suddenly puzzled by this, because who are all these people who are going to going on holiday in october and november and december? it does not list check me... it strikes me as a niche issue. most people take one holiday abroad, if that. i think our ideas on these things are skewed. we are not could be talk about people they are
11:39 pm
not could have the money or the means to take a break to spain. not could have the money or the means to take a break to spainm looks like, according to the front page of the guardian, quite a disaster looming because we have lost control of the virus according to experts. i think that's really interesting, isn't it? as tony said, there is a bigger picture here. every day, we see a different headline, with a different industry focused on. in the earlier months, we knew it industry was going to be discussed because we knew which minister was turning up the press conferences. this is about the virus cribbing back into bigger numbers than previously. boris johnson obviously, the whack a mole, that did work in the summer, the lockdowns, but with schools going back, the numbers will raise. lost control, depends on how you define losing control. clearly, this is not going away soon. do we do, tony? --
11:40 pm
what do we do? one of the things we need to remember about the first lockdown that happened in march was that that was done to protect the nhs. there was a real concern the nhs. there was a real concern the nhs was going to become overwhelmed and would not be a will to cope. fortu nately, and would not be a will to cope. fortunately, that did not happen. to be fairto fortunately, that did not happen. to be fair to the government, they put significant resources into the nhs. the government try to compare the nhs -- the government try to compare the nhs —— prepare the nhs for the winter, but of more concerned about hospital admissions and even more people who need icu. i i think it is a cause for concern, but not too much. just going to turn to the daily mirror. it concerns marcus rashford and a tory mp. yes. i have
11:41 pm
had a quick look on twitter. just out of interest... kevin hollinrake is not small, he has 10,000 followers. he does not need that, for his congregation, but marcus rashford has 3 million followers, so thatis rashford has 3 million followers, so that is quite a support group if he chooses to mobilise it. he has watch this hybrid in the summer. he was that footballer who seek a handedly changed government policy, turning them around on a school lunch cultures, and i think people are realising when he speaks, people listen. he is a very powerful figures. what i find very interesting about this whole debate is how the power has moved on social media, much more democratic, and kevin hollinrake media, much more democratic, and kevin hollinra ke has media, much more democratic, and kevin hollinrake has been very quick to say i will debate this with you in any form. he clearly does not
11:42 pm
wa nt in any form. he clearly does not want to be too antagonistic to some but power. i'm going to take you, tony, to the inside page of the daily express, page two, extension rebellion could be classed as a crime organisation. —— extension rebellion. what do you think of that? i think it makes a nice headline. you're going to need serious crime legislation to prosecute people who will claim they we re prosecute people who will claim they were protesting and have a right to protest. i was just thinking, were protesting and have a right to protest. i wasjust thinking, good luck with getting any prosecution that way. what the government does need to do is to seduce new legislation specifically to deal with people who were trying to disrupt newspaper distribution, all the stuff we talked about over the weekend, and i just the stuff we talked about over the weekend, and ijust think this is more of... districts meet as a government that is fundamentally unserious, not enough about what they are going to do in the medium and long—term —— this strikes me as and long—term —— this strikes me as a government. caroline? ithink and long—term —— this strikes me as
11:43 pm
a government. caroline? i think this strikes me as a knee jerk reaction to the events of the weekend. i think the government, for once, and the opposition are united in the fa ct the opposition are united in the fact the free press should not be interfered with, but they do not think extension rebellion did any favours this weekend —— extinction rebellion. i don't know if attacking the press, although there are given was a or not reporting properly on the environment, and everyone was talking about them. however, i think that missed the point. sometimes they crossed the line... i think tonyis they crossed the line... i think tony is right. to start criminalising them, it becomes two very extreme positions, militants, and somebody needs to stay in the middle of all this. tony, we are going to go to the yorkshire post 110w. going to go to the yorkshire post now. what is the story about?|j going to go to the yorkshire post now. what is the story about? i have not seen it, so i don't know. ok!
11:44 pm
laughter basically... have you seen it, caroline? i have seen it. ok. thanks, tony. you can wax lyrical your schooldays. caroline. this is passports. one of borisjohnson's grade manifesto promises with this great leveling up of the entire country, and the data reports — no surprises, some might say — the educational gulf between the south and north been revealed. i should not point out, this is notjust education, this is economic growth, household income and also educational outcomes and therefore life changes. this isjust a really group of people who have professionally formed an alliance to say to keep borisjohnson professionally formed an alliance to say to keep boris johnson to professionally formed an alliance to say to keep borisjohnson to his promises. politically, this is about a red ball of voters that he managed to get around to the tory way of thinking, which really, it was the
11:45 pm
brexit election late last year, so curious, he has got these people. he is going to be dealing with a whole load of complaints, post brexit re—flourishing, going to be leveling up re—flourishing, going to be leveling up all the country. the other thing that's interesting as well, it is, is the same bbc moving offices out of london —— the same time as... caroline, i'm going tojump in. you have done an amazing job of spinning plates for us, but thank you so much, as ever, tony and caroline. thank you, both. thank you. you have been watching bbc news. stay with us because coming up next, it's the film review.
