hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are telegraph chief political correspondent, christopher hope, and columnist for the evening standard and times radio presenter, ayesha hazarika. let's ta ke let's take a look first at tamara's papers. —— tomorrow's paper. the telegraph says the chancellor, rishi sunak, fears scientific advisers are "moving the goalposts" on the requirements for ending lockdown amid a growing split within the government over when to lift restrictions. the i marks the news that more than ten million people in the uk — 15% of the population — has now recieved a first dose of a coronavirus vaccine. the metro quotes england's chief medical officer saying "we are past the peak" of the pandemic.

professor chris whitty hailed a continual steady decline in the death toll but warned infection rates remained incredibly high. according to the guardian, the nhs has been urged to rethink safety for thousands of frontline staff after new research found that coughing generated at least ten times more infectious "aerosol" particles than speaking or breathing. the daily mail says the prime minister is backing its campaign for a statue of captain sir tom moore, who died aged 100 yesterday. and the times says consumers face higher prices on meat, cheese, and gas heating under plans being drawn up by borisjohnson for new carbon taxes and charges. so let's begin. thanks to both of you forjoining us to look through the papers. let's start first of all with the front page of the daily express. "ten millionjabs and we

are past the peak." a hopeful front page there?— are past the peak." a hopeful front page there? yes, very hopeful. and it is a great — page there? yes, very hopeful. and it is a great milestone, _ page there? yes, very hopeful. and it is a great milestone, it _ page there? yes, very hopeful. and it is a great milestone, it does - it is a great milestone, it does feel like it's quite a big moment in this war against the virus, about 15% of the population have had their firstjab, including my own father today who had his up in glasgow. so we felt quite emotional about it, it was quite a bit deal. so it is quite a huge thing to have done this so far. we all, particularly myself and many others, criticised the government and there's lots to criticise the government on. but they have done a good job on this. and one of the reasons they've been really good about this, i think is that they've been very strategic, they moved quickly, ordered lots of vaccine early, they hedged their bets across the different companies, but instead of farming it out to private companies that had no experience, they used the

infrastructure of the nhs at a local level, which is really important. it shows how brilliant our nhs is, and of course the army helped as well. but we are not out of the woods yet. yes, they hope the peak has passed, but the cases are still very high, the death rate is very high, and people still need to get their second jabs.— people still need to get their second jabs. people still need to get their second “abs. ~ , ,., , ., �* , second jabs. absolutely, and it's im ortant second jabs. absolutely, and it's important to _ second jabs. absolutely, and it's important to remember - second jabs. absolutely, and it's important to remember that - second jabs. absolutely, and it's important to remember that this second jabs. absolutely, and it's. important to remember that this 10 million figure for the most part is just one jab. million figure for the most part is just one jab-— million figure for the most part is just one jab. just one 'ab. absolutely right, my arents just one jab. absolutely right, my parents were _ just one jab. absolutely right, my parents were jabbed _ just one jab. absolutely right, my parents were jabbed last - just one jab. absolutely right, my parents were jabbed last week . just one jab. absolutely right, my parents were jabbed last week in | just one jab. absolutely right, my i parents were jabbed last week in the northwest and they're delighted. the excitement they showed when they were jabbed, it was such an uplifting _ were jabbed, it was such an uplifting thing, we've gotten past the 10 _ uplifting thing, we've gotten past the 10 million mark. but don't forget — the 10 million mark. but don't forget it's— the 10 million mark. but don't forget it's a 12 week weight, so thrat's— forget it's a 12 week weight, so that's really april before people are jabbed now can be finally protected from this virus. so it by that point— protected from this virus. so it by that point we will be well into

scientists. it is not of the scientists. it is not of the scientists are moving the goal posts — this virus is shape shifting as we know, there are mutations of mutations now. we don't know what lies ahead, so we need to be extra vigilant now, particularly when you look at our record. yes, we've hit this 10 million milestone which is fantastic, but let's not forget we've also got a really high death rate, well over 100,000 now. and look, i understand the concerns about the economy — of course i'm someone affected by it, we are all suffering from this. but we do have to follow the science. one of the mistakes that we made during this pandemic is we've done stuff in a halfhearted way, and that's why we've had to go in and out of lockdown. when you look at other countries like australia or some of the asian countries where they've done their lockdown pretty hard and fast — but it has allowed real life

and the economy to get back to normal. with respect to the chancellor, it's not his place to decide what the goal posts are. that's the job for the scientists. let's talk about the guardian's front page. this is an interesting study, isn't it? "coughing risks to nhs staff greater than feared." coughing generated ten times more infectious particles than breathing. this has led to fresh demands that anyone caring for someone with covid—19 should be provided with proper ppe. the most interesting thing about this is that health workers on general wards doubled the infection rate than those working on covid—19 wards. the big difference between these groups is the quality and the amount of ppe. yes. between these groups is the quality and the amount of ppe.— and the amount of ppe. yes, you miaht and the amount of ppe. yes, you might expeet _ and the amount of ppe. yes, you might expeet if — and the amount of ppe. yes, you might expect if you're _ and the amount of ppe. yes, you might expect if you're on - and the amount of ppe. yes, you might expect if you're on the - and the amount of ppe. yes, you might expect if you're on the 1c. might expect if you're on the ic reward — might expect if you're on the ic reward if— might expect if you're on the ic reward if you have covid and are reaiiy _ reward if you have covid and are reaiiy iii— reward if you have covid and are really ill with it, you need ppe.

and aggressive. i think this is something hospitals will have to look at really carefully, particularly in other wards like other parts of the hospital where people are getting their cancer treatment, where their immunity is already low. so they'll have to be very careful. i think christopher is right about this discussion with masks. there's been a bit of chat about people may be wearing double masks, and i think this�*ll be a conversation that we will be having more of. so people might have been crossed just wearing one mask, they might have to wear even stronger masks to try to fight this virus. [30 masks to try to fight this virus. do ou masks to try to fight this virus. do you think people will keep wearing masks even beyond the cove covid pandemic? masks even beyond the cove covid andemic? , , ~' , pandemic? sorry, i used think they will, actually- _ pandemic? sorry, i used think they will, actually. i— pandemic? sorry, i used think they will, actually. i know— pandemic? sorry, i used think they will, actually. i know they - pandemic? sorry, i used think they will, actually. i know they aren't i will, actually. i know they aren't comfortable and a lot of people hate them, _ comfortable and a lot of people hate them, but _ comfortable and a lot of people hate them, but i — comfortable and a lot of people hate them, but i can't imagine ever wanting — them, but i can't imagine ever wanting to _ them, but i can't imagine ever wanting to go back on public transport. wanting to go back on public transport-— wanting to go back on public

accept the result. however, i think what people need to be honest about in government, they need to be honest about the fact that this has caused a huge amount of torment for small businesses and lots of bureaucracy, a lot of paperwork, lots of admin and delay, and lots of red tape — something which the conservative party prides itself on not wanting to have, not strangling businesses with. but putting some sort of border between northern ireland and the uk was always going to be difficult. they didn't want to have a hard border and there was lots of discussions about that, but this bordered on the irish sea was something a lot of people were worried about, particularly unionists. we are seeing the results of that now. unionists. we are seeing the results of that now-— unionists. we are seeing the results of that now. , ., , ., ., , ., of that now. christopher, how do you think it'll play — of that now. christopher, how do you think it'll play out? _ of that now. christopher, how do you think it'll play out? in _ of that now. christopher, how do you think it'll play out? in the _ of that now. christopher, how do you think it'll play out? in the short i think it'll play out? in the short term, think it'll play out? in the short term. the _ think it'll play out? in the short term. the uk — think it'll play out? in the short term, the uk government i think it'll play out? in the short term, the uk government is i think it'll play out? in the short i term, the uk government is asking for an—

steven alzate given it. brighton move ten points clear of the relegation zone. liverpool are fourth — seven points behind the leaders manchester city, who they face on sunday. as for manchester city, their winning run continues. they're three points clear of manchester united after a 2—0 win over burnley at turf moor. gabrieljesus opened the scoring afterjust three minutes. raheem sterling got the second, seven minutes before half time. it was not about how many games we have to win, or runs of games. for the statistics, it's nice to open full pages. it's ok, but the fact is what is next, try to win. this is the only way we will do it, we've done it in the past when we made 18 games in a row, 1a in a row. there's always the next one. everton bounced back from their defeat to newcastle with a win at leeds. gylfi sigurdsson and dominic

calvert—lewin here gave them a 2—0 lead at half—time. and though leeds pulled one back, they held on to win 2—1. what a night forjesse lingaard, who scored two on his debut for west ham as they beat aston villa 3—1 — a great start to his loan spell after struggling at manchester united. and all five matches in the premier league tonight were away wins, as fulham lost at home to leicester, james maddsion set up kelechi iheanacho for the opening goalfor the visitors. and then just before half time, maddsion was again the provider, as jamesjustin made it 2—0 before the break. leicester are up to third. fulham are eight points from safety. and in scotland, rangers have restored their 23—point lead at the top of the table with a 1—0 win over stjohnstone. ianis hagi with the goal that gives steven gerrard his 100th win as rangers manager. there were 2—1wins for motherwell and ross county. southampton say their teenage

midfielder, alex jankiewitz, was racially abused on social media. it follows his sending off in their 9—0 defeat to manchester united last night. it's the latest in a string of such incidents. southampton say they're passing on all abusive messages to hampshire police. preparations for the australian open tennis have taken another blow, with more than 500 players, officials, and support staff going into isolation. it's after a worker at one of the event's quarantine hotels tested positive for the virus. tennis australia says the tournament itself, which gets under way on monday, won't be affected. but, as austin halewood reports, the build up's been farfrom ideal. tennis training in quarantine. for two weeks, this is how some of the world's best players had to prepare for the first grand slam of the year. and now, they're going to have to do it all over again. late today, we were notified that a 26—year—old man from noble park has tested positive for coronavirus. he'd been working as a resident

support officer as part of the australian open quarantine programme. he's now in a health hotel and his household contacts have been isolated. now all the people associated with the australian open staying in that hotel have been classed as casual contacts. that means they'll have to isolate until they can return a negative test. so, as things stand, the tournament itself shouldn't be affected. but this latest quarantine will play havoc with the six warm—up events currently under way. in a statement, tennis australia said that while they wre doing everything they could to initiate testing as soon as possible... something that's caused confusion with some of the players. but the fact these tennis stars are here at all has been questioned by the many thousands of australians stranded around the world, unable to return home because of the strict restrictions.

i can completely understand how victorians i feel. i have a lot of friends and family down here, i lived down here for about 18 months. so to know they're feeling safe is the most important thing, but i know we as players, we should be extremely grateful to have the opportunity to start our season in australia. while there's no questioning that the preparations have been farfrom ideal, the australian open are confident that this latest episode won't affect the tournament. but after one positive test put more than 500 people in isolation, the fear now is whether it escalates from here. austin halewood, bbc news. finally, geraint thomas will get a chance to race for a second tour de france title this summer — while his team—mate, egan bernal, who led the ineos grenadiers in last year's race, will focus on the giro d'italia. thomas will be competing in france alongside fellow briton tayo geoghegan hart, who won't defend the giro title he won last year. and their team boss feels

that thomas, who took the yellowjersey three years ago, has a good chance of winning another. this tour really suits geraint�*s attributes. he's very, very motivated for it. and, given the time trialling and the nature of the climbing, and the first week in the crosswinds — that element lends itself well to his skills and attributes, as well. so on paper, it's a great tour for geraint. and that's all your sport for now. more reaction to tonight's football on the bbc sport website. but from me and the team, goodnight. hello there. winter is about to ramp up to another gear by the end of this week, certainly into the weekend. it'll be turning much colder with the risk of some disruptive snow in places. so for the next few days, it'll gradually be turning colder for all, and we'll see increasing snow particularly over

the hills in the north. now for thursday, we've still got low pressure close by to the uk, it's the weather front across the north bringing further cloud, outbreaks of rain to northern ireland, much of scotland, northern england too, and here we'll see further snow over the scottish hills accumulating and drifting in that strong east—southeast wind. further south, after a bright start to the day, we'll start to see showery bursts of rain moving up from the south. here, it'll tend to be fairly mild, 8—10 celsius, but very cold across the north where we have that snow. through thursday night, it continues with rain and the snow across scotland — significant accumulations over the grampians and the highlands, very wet weather with a risk of flooding. further south, a drier night to come and clear skies, could see some mist and fog across southern england, and again, a big temperature contrast from north to south. now the snow continues as we head on into friday and saturday — significant accumulations have prompted the met office to issue an amber warning for this heavy, incessant snow. and also, some very heavy rain for lower levels could cause some localised flooding —

so a whole host of issues there. further west, we'll have sunny spells, a few showers, tends to stay dry across the far southeast — again, 9—10 celsius, much colder further north where it will also be windy with that drifting snow in the hills. moving on into the weekend, our area of low pressure sinks a bit further southwards, so it means the rain and the hill snow across scotland will drift into parts of northern england at times too, so a whole wintry mix here could be disruptive. further south, quite a bit of cloud around with outbreaks of rain, and temperatures dropping generally across—the—board. still cold in the north and a little bit colder for much of england and wales, too. as we head on into sunday, the very cold air across the east pushes southwards right across the uk, and it'll be very windy, so the wind making it feel even colder — 2—3 celsius, some snow pushing into northern and eastern areas which could be disruptive. so turning very cold through this weekend for all areas, with the risk of some disruptive snow for some of us.
