several western countries have announced sanctions against officials in china — over human rights abuses against the uighur population in xinjiang. the sanctions were announced as part of a coordinated effort by the european union, uk, canada and the us. safe and highly effective — that's the verdict from a large us trial of the oxford, astrazeneca vaccine. it shows it is 79% effective at stopping symptomatic disease — and 100% at preventing serious illness. parts of new south wales in australia are suffering their worst floods in 60 years. more torrential rains are expected until wednesday. saudi arabia has proposed a plan to end the conflict in yemen. it includes a nationwide ceasefire supervised by the un — as well as restarting negotiations between the saudi—backed yemeni government and houthi rebels — who are backed by iran.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are faiza shaheen, political commentator and nonresident fellow at new york university and lizzy burden, economics reporter at bloomberg. welcome reporter at bloomberg. back to both of you. more titles welcome back to both of you. more titles now in. let's have a look. astro—nought is the headline on the metro, with a major us trial showing the oxford astrazeneca jab cut coronavirus deaths in every age group with no serious side effects. the i leads with the irish prime minister's support for the uk government on vaccine exports after the eu warned it could �*forbid' doses made

in the bloc from being exported to the uk. the taioiseach said this would be �*a very retrograde step. the telegraph publishes leaked cabinet plans to make covid—19 jabs a legal requirement for care home workers. the paper writes that ministers felt compelled to act following alarm at the low take—up of the vaccine among care home staff. from next monday, britons could face a 5,000 pound fine for leaving the uk without a �*reasonable excuse — such as for work or family matters — that's according to the daily mail. there have been reports that all of britain's european neighbours could be put on the uk's travel ban red list in the coming weeks. the times has the same story and reports international holidays will be banned until the end ofjune after borisjohnson warned that a third wave of coronavirus in europe could �*wash up

on our shores. the guardian leads with scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon being cleared by an independent inquiry of breaching the ministerial code over her dealings with alex salmond. so let's begin... the daily mail. i gather #. i'm not sure under what legislation this is going to be a fourth —— £5,000 fine for the better system or leaving the country. it for the better system or leaving the count . , ., ., country. it is for leaving the country. it is for leaving the country are _ country. it is for leaving the country are going _ country. it is for leaving the country are going to - country. it is for leaving the country are going to the - country. it is for leaving the . country are going to the airport country. it is for leaving the - country are going to the airport and attempting to leave the country. pretty whopping £5,000, that will cost you a hell but you heard the prime minister woody today about the potential for a third wave of coronavirus washing up on our shores from europe. this is the reaction. we heard that francis light likely to be added to the list of countries. —— that france is likely. to the red light system. you will

on. —— out of time. that's it for the papers for this evening. hello, i'm tulsen tollett and this your sports news, where we start with the fallout from england's six nations campaign and the pressure now on head coach eddiejones. the rfu, the sport's governing body in england, is reviewing what happened after the side finished second from bottom in the table. jones says he's100% confident he's still the right man for the job. joe lynskey has more. english rugby spends this week reflecting, looking closely at how eddiejones's team can finish fifth in the six nations and what can change. this was england's year of unwanted records, they lost to scotland, wales and ireland, beaten by all three for the first time since the 70s. that could be magnificent!

spectacular start from ireland! in sport, the head coach takes the blame, butjones has built up credit. he's taken england to a world cup final and says he can fix this. it's been a tough one. yeah, we haven't been at our best. but we are in the process of changing the team and we need to reset the team, and we'll continue with that process. but the eddiejones process can be unpredictable— he's critics say he's boom or bust. he's won the six nations three time with england, including last year, but he's now come fifth—place twice. the last time that happened was in 2018, and 18 months later, england beat new zealand at the world cup. a famous victory in english rugby history! now they're back as a crossroads, but sacking jones comes with risks. he signed a new contract last april, just as sport was hit by a bigger crisis. to sack him now could cost him much.

to sack him now could cost too much. with the figures on the pitch, england conceded 121 points, their worst tally at a six nations. and gave away the most penalties. now, those at the top work out how much trust they still have in the process. joe lynskey, bbc news. scotland have named their squad for friday's delayed six nations match against france in paris. sean maitland misses out as the sru were limited to selecting five english—based players because of an agreement with the premiership teams. maitland scored two tries against the french in last years six nations. this is the final game of the tournament, which was supposed to be played last month, but there was a covid outbreak in the french camp. the scots can finish second with a win, while france need to win by at least 21 points and score four tries to take the title.

now to the pro 10, where scarlets have secured champions cup qualification for next season after a stunning second half comeback against connacht. trailing 33—12 at halftime, the welsh side stormed back into the contest to collect a bonus point win with 29 second half points, which included this tom rogers try putting them right back in the contest before they finished the job, winning 41—36 and taking third place in conference b. cardiff picked up a bonus point 34—15 win over edinburgh, this try here typifying their skill when lloyd williams looked to pass wide before putting a neatly placed chip kick in forjarrod evans, who scored their third try. it's just over seven years since the formula one legend michael schumacher had a skiing accident that left him with a devastating brain injury. he's not been seen in public since, but this weekend, his 22—year—old son mick will return the schumacher name to formula 1 when he makes his debut in bahrain. obviously, it's going to be an amazing weekend it's going to be an emotional weekend.

as i said this, 30 years since my dad drove his first race, and we are exactly the same age. it's even more emotional and seeing how he progressed and made his way into formula 1, and i'll see how i made my way into formula 1. it's amazing. the bbc and sky have signed a multi—million pound deal to show super league games for the next three years. at least 18 games will be shown live on bbc one or bbc two per season. the agreement, that starts in september, is believed to be worth around £8 million a year, with 25% of that invested in the women's championship, the second tier. the families of athletes taking part in this year's rearranged olympics and paralympics might be able to travel to japan to watch the games after all. all overseas fans have been barred

making his debut in a world tour stage — 22—year—old danish rider andreas kron of lotto—soudal, winning in a sprint finish to claim the race leader's jersey. ronnie o'sullivan has beaten john higgins ten frames to seven in theirfirst match at the tour championship. everything else you can find on the bbc sport website. hello there. many of us started the week dry with some spring sunshine. but things aren't going to change over the next few days. it's already turning cloudier. it will turn wetter and windier, and briefly for the end of the week, it will turn quite a bit colder. now, on the satellite picture, you can see a lot of cloud out west. this cloud being brought in our direction on a south—westerly breeze. as that breeze sets in, it is laden with moisture. so that is going to deliver a lot of cloud through tuesday,

especially across western parts of the uk, where the cloud will squeeze out some spots of light rain and drizzle. we'll see some more persistent rain pushing into northern ireland and western scotland later in the day, where it will also be turning quite windy. breezy elsewhere, the best of any sunshine across north east scotland, central and eastern parts of england, but generally speaking, it will be cloudier than it was on monday. top temperatures for most between 9—13 degrees. now, through tuesday night, this band of cloud and rain will push up out of scotland and northern ireland down into england and wales. clear spells and some showers following on behind. our band of cloud and patchy rain comes courtesy of a weather front, and this weather front is developing something of a wave. you can see this kink on the weather front here. so instead of clearing through quickly, the front hangs back across england and wales for a time. cloud and patchy rain, which will only slowly slide south—eastwards. brightening up for wales and northern england throughout the day. northern ireland and scotland

will see sunshine and a scattering of heavy showers, perhaps becoming more widespread late in the day. temperatures between 10—13 degrees in most places. now, thursday is a sunshine and showers day. some of the showers will be heavy, possibly thundery, most plentiful across northern and western areas, where we could see them joining together to give a spell of more persistent rain later in the day. again, those temperatures around 10—13, maybe 10 degrees. but those temperatures are set to fall. this cold front pushing through as we head into friday, and behind it, you can see showers which could start to turn wintry over higher ground because there will be some much colder air bringing its way in. it's not going to last too long, but friday is going to be a chilly—feeling day. some spells of sunshine, but some showers which could be heavy and wintry over high ground in the north and west. and those temperatures quite a bit lower, 7—10 degrees.
