changes come into force. as the new strain of coronavirus is discovered in more european countries, canada confirms its first cases. some eu countries begin vaccinations against covid—19 a day ahead of the planned coordinated roll—out across the bloc. us federal agents are searching a house on the outskirts of nashville as part of their investigation into the christmas day explosion in the city. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political commentatorjo phillips and the political editor

the sunday mirror and the sunday people, nigel nelson. hello, merry christmas to you both. first a quick look through the front pages. and senior conservative mps are concerned about plans to rush borisjohnson‘s christmas eve brexit deal through parliament before the year's end, says the observer with fishing chiefs accusing the prime minister of "caving in" at the last minute. moving to coronavirus, and doctors are warning of "ppe style chaos", according to the sunday mirror with some gp surgeries and hospitals still waiting for pfizer/biontech jabs. there's a "betrayal of 12,000 care homes" says the sunday people, which claims that 80% of the 15,000 care homes in england are not currently being considered for the covid vaccine. but there is some better news as the sunday times reports that the oxford/astrazeneca vaccine is expected to win approval "in days". the sunday telegraph says the jab could be rolled out as early

as the 4th of january. the paper also has an interview with borisjohnson who says big changes are coming following the trade deal with the eu. and, there is a picture of the flooding that makes the front page of the sunday express as a storm that was sweeps the nation tonight with heavy rain and strong winds. so that was a quick look through the front pages. let's begin our chat. i will say again to both of you i hope you had a lovely christmas. thank you had a lovely christmas. thank you forjoining us here on boxing day. we are going to start than an jo if you could kick us off with the front of the sunday telegraph and we are talking about the oxford jab which it says isn't too far off now. that's right and goodness knows we all need a bit of good news and this is very encouraging. it's supposed to be available from january the 4th. the government wants to get 2 million people vaccinated within a

fortnight. now that this is a much easier drug if you like because it doesn't have to be kept at such low temperatures. and as far as i know i think you only need one divvies. so, hopefully, if this comes online as soon january the 4th, what they are going to do is they are going to put sports stadia, school halls and of the sort of large centers into use and so there can be a real massive vaccination. it is good news if it can come off a. yeah, nigel. it is indeed good news if it comes off. but the question is whether or not they can actually do it. organisationally, there is a huge problem and as we are coming onto the sunday mirror next that hundreds of gp surgeries haven't got the jab, half of hospital trusts haven't got it. and 12,000 out of 15,000 care homes are not being considered for

it. now i appreciate there are difficulties transferring the pfizer vaccine because you have to keep it at such a low temperature. but there are figures knocking about that show if you vaccinate over 805, you are figure5 knocking about that show if you vaccinate over 805, you will 5ave if you vaccinate over 805, you will save one in 20 lives of those people vaccinated. once you get down to 50 and below, you are talking about one life for 47,000 jab5. so the most important thing is to vaccinate the elderly population as soon as you possibly can. jo, nigel mentioned the mirror and there is the warning of chaos basically. there was a little bit of good news there. but we can expect oui’ little bit of good news there. but we can expect our health systems and nhs to be under real pressure at the moment. of course. you have many things. you have the witches tickle problem of getting the vaccine to other places where it is being used

in care homes and gp surgeries —— logistical problems. you have staff shortages because of people are isolating all of their off sick with coronavirus. you have the problems caused by the lockdowns around the country which makes it difficult to get around and about. and we had this in the beginning and the sunday mirror on the front page talks about ppe mirror on the front page talks about p p e style mirror on the front page talks about ppe style fiasco. we know what happened in march and april. when front line health care workers were having to make protective clothing out of beanbags and things like that. but we see in the mirror is people are being told they've got a vaccination appointment and then it's being cancelled at the last—minute because the vaccine has not arrived. and that sort of uncertainty and chaotic style is not what we need right now. we need to absolutely get on with this, get it right and really being really

realistic about whether it can be delivered properly and extensively. nigel the sunday times talks about a week to letter from the nhs bosses as well stop with yes and they are talking about dozens of trusts who are predicting that half their beds will be full of covid patients by new year's eve. the sunday times 5ay5 new year's eve. the sunday times says that will be the equivalent of 40 hospitals being full up. and again we have this whole problem about whether or not the nhs can 5tave about whether or not the nhs can stave off being overwhelmed which ha5 stave off being overwhelmed which has been the target all the way through this crisis, which is to try to protect the nhs which of course then makes you wonder why rule5 to protect the nhs which of course then makes you wonder why rules were lifted over the christmas period because it would just make things more difficult in january. let's turn to the sunday telegraph or rather go back to it, changing subject. big changes are coming for

britain vows the pm, jo? this is an interview with the prime minister with his old employers, the sunday telegraph since the brexit deal was agreed on christmas eve. what's interesting here is he is trying to reset the agenda i suppose. it still has to go through parliament but this is the prime minister talking about big changes suggesting or alluding to changes to bureaucracy and red tape, we have heard that before. but he also talks about levelling up. that is the absolute priority because if he wants to be remembered and his government wants to be remembered for anything other than the fiasco and chaos of mixed m essa 9 es than the fiasco and chaos of mixed messages during the pandemic, then they really need to get on top of this because what's happened is that covid has increased at the gap between rich and poor. there are something like 15 million people, 23% of the uk, living in poverty and

that's according to the trust chaired by a conservative peer. this levelling up agenda has to be action, not words. what will happen, is there going to be an end to the universal credit when that comes to an end in march or are they going to keep it going? we know many people have lost their jobs keep it going? we know many people have lost theirjobs and many more was said we do so as well. businesses are going to suffer and although there is a brick city on now, things aren't as gloomy as they might have been with no deal. but we are still in uncertain times. —— brexit deal. it is a big challenge to borisjohnson to do more than just talk about levelling up. you seem to be going in the opposite direction, nigel? because asia has just signed a huge trade deal. africa is about to sign a trade deal on the 1st of january just as africa is about to sign a trade deal on the 1st of januaryjust as we start our new deal. that's

absolutely right. and i think the one thing that i find really disappointing about what i have seen of the 1246 pages which i'm sure i will get through eventually i5 of the 1246 pages which i'm sure i will get through eventually is that so will get through eventually is that so much of this is a work in progre55. and so because of that, we don't know exactly how brexit will work. key area5 don't know exactly how brexit will work. key areas a financial 5ervice5, product 5tandard5, data protection, and crucially dispute resolution, we don't know exactly how or what the deal really is because they keep saying that they are going to have various committees meeting, working groups sorting it out. and that's the problem, we are suddenly presented with a whole host of new uncertainties where i rather hope that it deal like this that has taken four hope that it deal like this that has ta ken four years hope that it deal like this that has taken fouryears in hope that it deal like this that has taken four years in the making would actually look rather better. fish featured very strongly in these discussions. let's turn to the observer, the fishing industry is crying betrayal, jo. there is no

surprise really because i think fishing as we have set before many times, fishing is not a very big player in terms of the gross domestic product of this country but it is very big, we are an island nation and fishing is in our blood and coastal waters and has been forever. it was inevitable i think that the government would have sacrificed fishing in order to preserve or to protect other industries which are bigger players in the economy. it's surprising really because so many fishing communities voted for brexit voted to leave and now they seem to be slightly surprised that actually they have had their chips, if you like. very good! nigel, match that! i wish i could! i think with fishing it was a bit of a score draw there.

i think borisjohnson had a major win keeping the european court of justice i'd have anything to do with british laws. when it came to fishing asjoe said, it only makes up fishing asjoe said, it only makes up 0.1% of our economy and yet it's so symbolic of our sovereignty and everything that brexit was meant to be about. so the kind of deal he struck, i understand why fishing leaders don't like it. but the kind of deal he struck seems to me a reasonable compromise given that we have got some wins in other areas. 0k, have got some wins in other areas. ok, let's go to the express and i know we are rattling through them but the future is in our hands is their headline, still on brexiteer. or rather brexit is done and dusted now, butjo taken away. or rather brexit is done and dusted now, but jo taken away. is that your tradition, request that? we will not be talking about it anymore next year? i take that back, go on then.

this is from lord frost britain ‘s chief negotiator. there is a lot of speculation whether the hard—line brexiteer tories will back the government on this as nigel said and he did not tell us how many pages he has rid of the 2000 page document, but has been described as dense. which i would imagine it probably is and for of legal legalese. whether mps will have time to read the whole thing before they vote on it wednesday, who knows. but i think in the sense of the sunday express is a sandy future is in our hands and they are always banging the british bulldog drum, i think we are at the point where we have had a dreadful year that brexit, we have the least worst option if you like because i no deal would have been a disaster. and to a certain extent we have to put it behind us and move forward.

it has been so divisive for the last four years and families across the country, within communities and i think we have got to move ahead and try and build something from it. but in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic which has absolutely wrought havoc across the country and across the world, we can't do it on our own. we have to have very strong leadership and that means government intervention whether it means helping people as we talked about, people in real poverty and with benefits and stuff like that, we need to get a grip or the government needs to get a grip if we are going to have a future. why don't we have something to eat? western to the front pages of the sunday times. the menu looks great, i don't know about the price tag. this is the three had a £50 takeaway. you can get it at the cannot hotel in mayfair for your

gnu c celebrations under virtual lockdown. so you get scottish scallops, blue officer, french pastries and if you want to spend six to £5 extra, there is some caviar thrown in for some it is the ultimate takeaway. -- £65. which you pay for that? know, and anyway i am too far away from mayfair. they will only deliver if you live within a never radius or if you collect that which i would think narrow it down. it isa which i would think narrow it down. it is a nice idea but you can't go wrong with leftovers. lots of that about at the moment! and i presume looking quickly ahead to new years both of you staying in? mostly yes. i was both of you staying in? mostly yes. iwas in both of you staying in? mostly yes. i was in yesterday, i should be back in on new year's day and probably before that. i hate the new year.

in on new year's day and probably before that. i hate the new yearlj will be staying in as well. i am in a tear four will be staying in as well. i am in a tearfourandl will be staying in as well. i am in a tear four and i can't seem us of going error. we will all be in, have a cracking new year's day even though you hated, jo. but it it is... lovely to see both as ever. it has been loving to have you with us as well for subdue same with us here in bbc news. next, it's click. cheerio! ah, there you are! come on in! welcome to clickmas 2020! i hope you're doing ok. it's all a bit different this year, isn't it?
