think there's a bit private, but i think there's a bit more nuanced than that. it tends to be local versus national, and local has been proven to work. too many cooks, it doesn't work. when places like leicester took the track and trace into their local authorities and got people with understanding and got people with understanding and specifically people who could speak the languages of some of these households, because some of the evidence has shown it was in places where they had many, many more than the national average that don't speak english. those were the ones that were completely slipping to the net, because they were just getting calls from a call centre, most of us wanted to put the phone down straightaway. they didn't understand what was being said to them and their interpreters. all of those issues have resulted in all this huge waste of money. one bit of the �*s public sector that did work well was the nhs. nhs pay

councils expected to cut spending next year. austerity has meant that a third had to reduce spending power. this is another sign of the times. it's in no position at the moment to deal with this. it depends on the shape of the discovery, because we might have a pretty fast or pretty v—shaped recovery. it depends on how much spend up spending there is. —— pent up. i was reading how much consumer would go out, and raise taxes by making sure businesses can be... but the very rich have had a hit from the pandemic, the very poor have had a much bigger hit from the pandemic

the vaccine roll—outs are getting a lot of heat from the public. they're getting huge amount of criticism, more than most of us, on this island. therefore they are trying to find a bogeyman to blame for why there vaccine roll—out has gone badly. so when people say why hasn't gone as well as it has in britain or in the states, they are saying that's because they're courting their vaccines. that's because they're courting theirvaccines. —— hoarding. i do firmly believe that if we were still in the eu, this would be making brexit more likely at the moment. this would be a huge issue and i've spoken to many, many people across the continent in the last few weeks, looking out the story. and the vaccine roll—out is making the european commission and parliament incredibly unpopular in certain countries. it's doing a lot to make them think twice about whether they

10:53 pm
would be asked about the vacancy. and despite his difficult run, he paid tribute to loew�*s achievements, but said he won't be leaving anfield. for sure one of the most successful, did an incrediblejob really. and i understand that he wants to have this highlight for him as a european championship, tries to squeeze everything out that he can in this tournament. with the amount of really good german managers at the moment, germany will be able to find a good solution. if that's the question we want to ask, if i'm available for the job or for the coach of the german national team in the summer, no. the leading neuropathologist whose work helped identify the link between football and dementia has called the implementation of concussion substitutes a shambles. speaking in front of a parliamentary inquiry, dr willie stewart, whose research found former players are 3.5 times more likely to die from neurodegenerative disease, said the new rules are not helping the health of the players.

football has a habit of, whenever it's faced with having to develop... going out on their own and trying to develop... to everybody else as if the problem never occurred before. the new plan football has introduced this is a shambles in 2021. wales have made two changes from the side that beat england in the six nations ahead of saturday's game against italy in rome. with scrum half kieran hardy ruled out through injury, his scarlets team—mate gareth davies comes in to the starting 15, while lock cory hill starts in place of adam beard. british number one dan evans has set up a second round meeting with roger federer at the qatar open, after beating jeremy chardy two sets to one. the first set took more than an hour. evans saved ten break points, but eventually came out on top 6—4. and although chardy forced a deciding set, evans won that 6—2 to set up a meeting with federer, who's been training with the 30—year—old brit to prepare

for his first tournament since last year's australian open. i have a tough draw, i feel, but let's be honest, any draw would've been a difficult draw after not having played for a year, so... but practice the last few weeks, i really feel like have been really good, so that puts me in a positive mindset for my first round here in doha. former masters champion danny willett has withdrawn from this week's players championship in florida after testing positive for coronavirus. the tournament is due to start on thursday, but willett won't be in the field. it's a setback for the winner of the greenjacket in 2016, with the masters starting in around a month's time. meanwhile, one man hoping to rediscover his form ahead of the first major of the year is the defending champion at sawgrass, rory mcilroy, who says he's yet to fulfil his potential. there's no point in me being out here if i didn't think that. you know, that'sjust not part of my psyche or anyone's psyche out here.

i think that's a difference between people that make it to the elite level and the people that don't because they don't think that way. so there's, you know... i firmly believe that my best days are ahead of me, and i'm working hard to make sure that they are. there's a new man in the lead after stage three of the paris—nice cycle race — young swiss rider stefan bissegger, who won the stage and took the overall lead in the process. it's the 22—year—old's first race as a professional. today's stage was an 8.6—mile time trial, and bissegger posted the fastest time on the course by less than a second. jos buttler says england's policy of resting and rotating players is the right thing to do, despite the team's recent heavy test series defeat in india. and buttler was one of the players who returned home early from that series, having played in england's win in the first test, in order to spend time at home. and that was ahead of the t20 series against the same opponents, which starts on friday.
10:57 pm
england were criticised by some for not playing their strongest side throughout, but buttler says with a packed calendar this year, it's the right call to manage workloads. i think we need to get away from the idea that you just go until you break and we leave the players behind. there's so much forget coming up that it's absolutely a huge... with the ashes at the end of the year, you need to be getting to that point with players in the best shape to be able to go and perform in that series as opposed to being burnt out and no longer wanting to be in that environment. and the former england bowlerjoey benjamin has died at the age of 60. benjamin won one test cap for england during a memorable victory over south africa at the oval in 1994 and took 387 first class wickets during an 11—year career with warwickshire and surrey. and, of course, two champions league last 16 ties came to a conclusion this evening.
