hello. this is bbc news with lukwesa burak. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first, the headlines — more than 16,000 new coronavirus infections are recorded in the uk in the past 2a hours, with the number of covid—linked deaths rising to 150. millions of people are now living with tighter coronavirus restrictions in england.

lancashire moves into the highest alert category, but there's still a stalemate over greater manchester. french police say samuel paty, the history teacher who was beheaded in a suspected islamist attack, had been threatened for several days. new zealand's prime minister, jacinda ardern, and her labour party have won a second term in office with a landslide general election victory after campaigning on their success in handling the coronavirus pandemic. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are nigel nelson, the political editor of the people and sunday mirror,

and the political commentatorjo phillips. tomorrow's front pages, starting with. .. hello starting with. .. to hello starting with... to you both. we will chat in a moment. hello to you both. we will chat in a moment. first to the front pages. according to the sunday telegraph, the former prime minister, tony blair, has been accused of a breach of covid—19 restrictions after appearing to fail to self—isolate for m days following a two—day trip to the us on a private jet. the observer reports that a jobs crisis is poised to hit up to a million young people within weeks due to the pandemic‘s economic effects. according to the sunday people, the nhs is facing a perfect storm of front—line staff shortages and a lack of tests for coronavirus this winter. and according to the sunday express, borisjohnson is resisting a "circuit break" to tackle covid—19 because of fears it will drive

thecountry into an endless cycle of lockdowns. so, let's begin. lovely to see you. we are going to start with the front page of the observer. not something you will be reading on sunday morning, is it? 1 million young britons facing job crisis within weeks. yes, not really surprising but i think this is really putting things literally in black it is a piece of research that is being done by a professorfrom bath university who is one of the leading labour market specialists in the country. and he is warning really of what is being called the covid generation, so young people between the ages of 16—24 who are going to find it incredibly difficult to get work. so if they

are not in education or employment, they face a long period of time to get some work. and of course that is very worrying. we have seen it before in previous decades. it is actually devastating. for the economy and for people. and where thejobs economy and for people. and where the jobs where they might have turned it off in or retail or things like the leisure industry, none of those jobs are like the leisure industry, none of thosejobs are going like the leisure industry, none of those jobs are going to be exist any more because of the crisis. the work experience they might have had is also going by the boards. and also for everyjob there are going to be millions and millions of others applying for them who have got more qualifications, more experienced. so it isa qualifications, more experienced. so it is a really bad outlook and it is one that the archbishop of canterbury has also got involved in it he says there has got to be a programme for full employment otherwise we are going to end up with this sort of cohort of your

people consigned to the dustbin of history. nigel, many young people who have completed for example post—18 who have completed their first degree had decided to stay within education which ultimately brings up the debt but they have got no other choice but not everybody is in further are they? know, they are not be can understand why those that are will stay put. as she said, this is almost an intractable problem. you're talking about my many of the people would be working in the hospitality industry which is most affected. so what we are going to have to do is we are going to have to rethink our entire economy and rather than imagine we are going to go back to as things were, it's all about looking forward to what we can actually do in the future. so there isa actually do in the future. so there is a whole host of things that a government who is radical enough should actually be thinking about.

so changing benefits to passing universal basic income is one idea, and shorting work weeks might be another. things like that that where we know things will never go back to being the same again but probably will carry on working from home, many of us. if you start to rethink how thinking —— things work, it will give hope to these young people. let's stay with the front page of the observer and great news for the prime minister in new zealand and unprecedented victory for her. absolutely and how nice to see a :—) for once amongst the news. she she has got a landslide victory in new zealand and it was called the covid election and she has been widely praised for the way she has handled it as have many women leaders throughout the world. she was absolutely clear from the outset of absolutely clear from the outset of a lock down and they have been very strict in new zealand and you can argue that yes it is a lot easier because it's an island with a

relatively low population. but the way that she has handled it i think as much as much as anything notjust the result of keeping the pandemic and the infections low. she has done it with kindness, compassion and clarity. qualities that are sadly lacking around the world, not least of all here. this is interestingly the first time since they brought in a proportional representation in new zealand that there has been an outright victory for one party, so it's a great feather in her cat. she is only a0 and has done a greatjob so farand is only a0 and has done a greatjob so far and has now got the possibility to go on for the next two years and as nigel says, politicians all over the world and leaders and thinkers and strategists need to be taking about what comes next. we cannot just need to be taking about what comes next. we cannotjust think it will all go away and we will reset the clock. so let's see what happens in new zealand but good for them. clock. so let's see what happens in new zealand but good for themli clock. so let's see what happens in new zealand but good for them. i was

interested to read that her popularity was much higher abroad, sort of a superstar politician, compared to what traditionally was the preference for new zealanders. but she came through. she certainly did and she got ga seats in a 120 seat parliament and that's the first time that has happened since pr was introduced. it does not mean that everything will go swimmingly for a next term. new zealand is facing a recession, the first one they have had an" recession, the first one they have had an 11 years. and also there has been some criticism within new zealand that they don't have a real plan for recovery after covid. so i think she might find although obviously the first bit of a bumpy ride having covid and a pretty nasty terrorist outbreak at the same time but her second term might be rather difficult. in a sense, she is facing the same kind of problems that the chancellor here will face who has given all the money away so what will happen when he tries to get it

back? we are going to stick slightly on that theme with covid and hope for a vaccine come the new year on the front page of the sunday times. yes, this is johnson the front page of the sunday times. yes, this isjohnson van tam who is a very familiar face on television these days but we have never heard of them a year ago. the deputy chief medical officer gave a briefing to mps on monday and apparently this is a private briefing. but it was a p pa re ntly a private briefing. but it was apparently very bullish about the hopes of a vaccine available in limited form. shortly after christmas. now this is based on research that is going on at oxford university and is manufactured by astrazeneca. jonathan van tam has been very straight, talking to the pandemic. he is not afraid to part company with the politicians on things, so one would actually perhaps take more solace from what

he is saying and being positive than perhaps a cabinet minister. the government this week changed the rules to allow a different level of health professional to give the vaccine should it become available so that nurses and paramedics and other health professionals could do it. obviously it's a question of whether it will be available, how effective it will be and then how do you use it. obviously front line staff are the most vulnerable and at risk but i think it's a glimmer of hope. another covid story but i want you to get to the front page of the sunday telegraph and we are talking about the search on for a covert exit strategy. yes, boris johnson has a lot of trouble in his own party at the moment especially with what is going on up north where his red wall mps are pretty upset with him at what he has been doing there. now these are sort of the other

rebels and they include sir graeme brady who is chair of the backbench 9022 committee, effectively the tory mp steward. and the former chancellor norman lamont and what they are saying is what they want from borisjohnson is some kind of clear exit strategy. i'm sure we are all with them there that we would all with them there that we would all want to see some kind of exit strategy but the question is what. at the moment it seems that everything borisjohnson at the moment it seems that everything boris johnson touches, at the moment it seems that everything borisjohnson touches, he messes up. everything borisjohnson touches, he messes up. we now have a everything borisjohnson touches, he messes up. we now have a new everything borisjohnson touches, he messes up. we now have a new tiered syste m messes up. we now have a new tiered system which is a discipline fight the rules and as far as i can see has only succeeded in confusing them. sol has only succeeded in confusing them. so i understand what they are doing. i hope that they can actually persuade borisjohnson doing. i hope that they can actually persuade boris johnson to actually get a persuade boris johnson to actually geta grip. persuade boris johnson to actually get a grip. 0ne hope of course is that andy burnham the mayor of manchester is pressing for a palm entry vote early next week. 0ver manchester is pressing for a palm entry vote early next week. over the lockdown regulations there. it looks

like the last vote last week in my az like the last vote last week in my 42 tory mps rebelled. now if labour come on site, borisjohnson loses a majority. we will stay on the front page of the telegraph and new cycle lanes are leaving roads backed up with traffic. have you noticed that? i have not actually. apparently this is the transport secretary whose has been writing to local councils. you would honestly have thought that labour councils would have enough on their plate and he would think that their plate and he would think that the general secretary would have other things to do other than criticise but apparently lots of residents and people are complaining that there are unused cycle lanes. we went into lockdown in march one of the things was to get people off public transport and not into cars. what is happening apparently and i'm presuming that this is very much more in the city areas is that residential roads have been blocked off with bollards and planters

making it impossible for emergency vehicles to get through. meanwhile cycle lanes are staying empty and the traffic is backing up the same way. it is the eternal problem how you manage traffic, how you manage cycling to make it safe and how you wa nt cycling to make it safe and how you want people to have space which is absolutely at a premium which might mean children going out to play in the streets where there is no cars or traffic. but you've also had the problem of people being told not to go on public transport and they are relu cta nt to go on public transport and they are reluctant to go on public transport and they are going to get in their cars. and i have certainly noticed a huge increase in traffic over the last few weeks. front page of the sunday times and a story that i picked up earlier this week and really shows how good and welcoming the human spirit is. this came up on social media that reflects a very important and or social media that reflects a very importantand ora social media that reflects a very important and or a problem and that his mental health, nigel. and how

inspiring the story is. this is a 51—year—old who was feeling pretty low and lost hisjob 51—year—old who was feeling pretty low and lost his job and 51—year—old who was feeling pretty low and lost hisjob and could not get another one and was very lonely and decided before going to be before midnight he would send a tweet out telling people that. he did not get much sleep that night because so many did not get much sleep that night because so many responses came did not get much sleep that night because so many responses came back and eventually his tweet was seen 10 million times. it was light 130,000 times, children sent him drawings and people sent him pictures. he feels an awful lot better and tomorrow is his 52nd birthday and his son has got his favourite black fore st his son has got his favourite black forest gateau kate ready for him. very quickly what did you get from this? we spend a lot of time moaning about social media and we all know that it about social media and we all know thatitis about social media and we all know that it is a double edged sword but this is a story that i think is fa ntastically this is a story that i think is fantastically cheering. it is the kindness of strangers. and i think it is also about mental health and

is about being 0k to say i feel low and i'm lonely, please say hello and look at the response he got. i think it's a great story. indeed in the message was you are not alone. happy birthday for monday i think he said. but from nigel and joe for now thank you very much. see you in about a half an hour you very much. see you in about a halfan hourand you very much. see you in about a half an hour and that is a thank you and goodbye for now from us. next on bbc news, it's click.

welcome to click. for many of us, 2020 has been the year we have all been stuck at home more than we would have liked. now for some, spending more time with our partners has been great. for some, it has started to grate. but there are those for whom being locked down with someone else has been no joke at all. we've heard a lot about how mental health issues have been on the rise because of the pandemic, but so has domestic abuse. and sadly, some technology can make it easier to abuse a partner or even ex—partner who's been trying to break away. the abuse in my relationship was kind of emotional abuse. things being said rather than physical. nothing really being done that was obviously tangible, but that changed very quickly. compounded by a lot of issues during the lockdown, a lot of stress, financial stress as well. i've realised, you know, it was a lot of financial control, control of sort of how often i could work, i realised

actually how much he was limiting my ability to work. meet kate and sue. well, those are the names we have given to protect their anonymity for their own safety. their stories are some of many experienced during lockdown. in the first few weeks, the police received a domestic disturbance call almost every 30 seconds. in 2019, in the uk alone, there were almost 2.5 million domestic abuse cases reported, and many still go unrecorded. when i was trying to leave, i found that he was monitoring my location on my phone, monitoring my screen time, that was being shared with him. increasingly, technology has become a tool for abuse. survivors often reporting beings stalked through tracking

apps on their phones, keyloggers on their computers or their lives being controlled through smart devices in their homes. kate sought help from women's domestic violence charity refuge. although such abuse can happen to anyone, women are still three times more likely to experience violence and harassment. and the charity says over 70% of those contacting it have experienced some technological abuse, one of the things it specialises in dealing with. and the law is finally catching up. the uk recently passed a landmark domestic abuse bill recognising that tech abuse is part of the problem. it'll make it illegal to use modern technology to track or spy on a partner or ex—partner. but beyond the legislation, there is a wider debate around the products themselves,

and whether they should be designed to offer better protection in these scenarios. so a small team of employees at ibm have decided to try and solve the problem. they've devised a new set of design principles for tech companies to build on. right at the beginning of our research, we saw that there is help and guidance available to people who are facing this kind of abuse. but the bulk of it focuses on keeping safe by educating yourself in the technology. we believe that the burden of safety shouldn't fall solely on the shoulders of the end user. the list ibm has devised is long but they do have some interesting points. take for example a box like this, that looks pretty harmless, also a place where you might leave a nice gift message to somebody, or when it comes to online banking, somewhere where you may make a note of a reference. but they are also being used for more sinister purposes.

a place where perpetrators can continue their abuse. 0ne suggested solution is to make them ‘smart‘, automatically monitoring for abusive language patterns of behaviour to potentially spot and stop them happening. but some changes suggested are hard to implement and need a bigger rethink. if the devices in our home had obvious alerts when they are remotely activated, and kept a digital record of who did what, when, this would make it difficult for abuses to obscure and distort the truth. furthermore, having a manual override on the devices would return some of the power to the local user. with smart devices becoming more commonplace, this issue has become more urgent to tackle. everything i had was like hand—me—down phones, hand—me—down laptops, so he would set up all the accounts,

erm, he would set up family sharing on things, there was various alexa devices all over the property, he could go to someone's house and ring the alexa when we were at home. family apps are another area of concern, something that many of us used to monitor our children's safety, but in an abusive relationship they're also the apps that are most open to misuse, because they're all about sharing information. even though location data is central to the apps function, most don't notify users when they've been tracked, or constantly push users to turn location settings on, even when they've been actively disabled. as our digital lives become more intertwined with our home lives, these issues will only become more prevalent.

i think the companies should know what the products could be used for, and when you're in a couple and the account is going to be registered to one e—mail address, when something goes wrong, the person can't rectify anything or change details, you are stuck. he locked me out of our shared amazon account, which had my credit card details for all the payments. i rang up amazon and i said, "i can't take my card from this account." they said, "sorry, you just have to cancel your bank cards." designs to better protect against controlling and stalking behaviour can improve privacy and security for all of us. but for the hundreds of millions effect by domestic abuse every year, change can't come soon enough. here i am playing a next—gen game on a next—gen machine — the xbox series x. but this is really only a taster

of the next—gen experience, rather than the full three courses. you see, the console that i've been using for the last couple of weeks is prerelease, that means that lot and lots of things from the user interface to its overall performance will be tweaked and changed by the time people get their hands on the finished machine. so, for the purposes of a preview, we can only really talk about a limited number of its features. the first next—gen games we get to preview are certainly an odd couple. japanese rpg, yakuza: like a dragon, and racing title dirt 5, are two completely different games that demonstrate that the next generation looks quite a bit like the current generation, though with a bit more polish. a role—playing game with turn—based combat, like ya kuza, is perhaps not the best title to show off this new machine's new abilities. man: want to fight? punch. oof! a slightly surreal take on life on life as a japanese gangster, it looks nice enough — the smooth frame rate and sharp

visuals, but it's not what you'd call a poster child for the next gen. da—da—da—daa! never fear, part—time hero is here! for that, you'd need a game with a bit more visual razzle—dazzle, which is where racing titles usually shine. 0ff—road racing across a huge variety of tracks in all weathers is the order of the day here. but again, apart from good, not amazing visuals, i'm yet to get any of the next—gen feels from either of these games. much has been made of the series x's ability to drastically reduce load times. this is in part thanks to its nvme ssd and the velocity architecture which joins up all of the console's new hardware to some smart software. there are still load times, but they're much shorter. when we compare it to the machine it replaces, you can see the differences appear. when you're playing no man's sky, on the one x, it takes about a minute and a half to load. 0n the series x, it's 20 seconds — much faster!

and when the game's up and running, we see some stability improvements in the visuals as well. then we come to quick resume. 0n current—gen machines, if you want to play a different game to the you've already played, loading up the next title can take several minutes. now it's just seconds. 0n series x, quick resume drastically reduces the time it takes to switch between titles, and games pick up right where you left them. so far i've tested this to be able to resume about five games at any one time, but that could change with the finished machine. lots has been made about backwards compatibility on this generation of consoles, and there is a very large back—compatible catalogue for the series x you can play. it's also been suggested that next—gen games could cost as much as £70 a pop, and the launch line—up of titles for the series x and ps5 isn't exactly stellar. so, a back catalogue of older, but well—regarded games helps bolster the proposition. for series x, it enjoys quite a lot of backwards compatibility, with a lot, but not all xbox games, that includes games

from the xbox one, 360 and original machine. 0nto the machine itself: it's a commanding presence in the living room — much larger than the machine it replaces — the xbox 0ne x. while the older machine discreetly slots away beneath tvs across the globe, the series x towers next to the tv — it looks a little bit like the monolith from 2001: a space odyssey, however, like most of us during lockdown, it seems to have piled on the pounds. it is a big bit of kit. we're now in the final strait before the launch of all of the next—gen consoles. we'll bring you reviews of this and its cheaper, less powerful sibling, the series s, as well as the ps5 ahead of their launch next month. that's it for the short cut of click for this week. the full—length version is up on iplayer, and it's waiting for you right now. as ever, throughout the week you can find the team on youtube, instagram, facebook and twitter, @bbcclick. thank you for watching, and we'll see you soon. bye— bye!

hello, mostly cloudy skies again during sunday. the chance of seeing a little bit of rain but most places will actually stay dry but we will be getting off to a damp start across much of scotland, northern ireland, northern and eastern england. this area with thick cloud and patchy rain will spread north again during the day, so scotland remains very much in the zone for seeing some occasional light rain, but northern ireland will brighten up for a time. part of wales, the midlands and southern england, a greater chance of seeing a few sunny spells coming through the cloud compared to saturday. but what is still a rather cool day with just light winds. the winds are starting to pick up overnight and into monday, as we see rain heading across northern ireland and into parts of northern england and scotland. for the rest of england and wales,

monday is starting with a few sunny spells around, but clearly, our weather is changing and there will be more heavy rain around in parts of northern ireland and scotland on monday. affecting some of us in western areas of wales and the far west of england, elsewhere in england though, increasing cloud and breeze but from a milder direction. temperatures edging upwards.

this is bbc news. i'm lukwesa burak with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. tributes are paid to samuel paty, the teacher murdered in paris on friday, in what the french president has called a cowardly attack. the number of daily covid—related deaths in the uk rises to 150, as europe becomes the pandemic‘s new epicentre. azerbaijan vows revenge on armenia, after blaming it for a deadly missile attack — even as a "humanitarian truce" comes into effect. a british police officer, poisoned in the salisbury novichok attack, quits — saying he can no longer do thejob.
