�* priority mental health is a key priority across all age groups, and covid—19 has accentuated the problems and throwing the challenges into even sharper focus. we think certainly some people will have delayed getting help, and therefore may be worse when they come to us than they would have been otherwise. we also know that things won't just bounce back and go back to normal straight away, and that there are problems stored at the moment. they're giving hope in difficult times, but they know their work has a long way to go, with the toll on mental health of the last year becoming clearer by the day. hugh pym, bbc news, portsmouth. football now and wales have won a crucial game in their world cup qualifying campaign against the czech republic in cardiff. our sports correspondent, andy swiss was watching. there might have been no fans, but you'd hardly have guessed it. if it sounded like a big night for wales, well, it was. after losing their opening world cup
10:31 pm
qualifier, victory was vital. but against the czech republic, not so easy. gareth bale should've scored, and didn't he know it. but it was still goalless at the break. after, it was a tale of two red cards. on the right of the screen, a shove to the face of wales�*s connor roberts. and patrick schick was off before roberts followed him after this challenge. it was ten against ten and seemingly stalemate. but in the nick of time, gareth bale crossed and wales found a winner. and danjames is there to meet it! relief at last, courtesy of danjames�*s superb header. but still the czech republic weren't done and only a last—ditch tackle from joe rodon kept them out. not their prettiest performance, but for wales, the 1—0 win was all that mattered. andy swiss, bbc news. that's it. now on bbc one, time for the news where you are. have a very good night. do you swear or affirm... the first full day of — do you swear or affirm... the first full day of testimony _ do you swear or affirm... the first full day of testimony was - do you swear or affirm... the first full day of testimony was an - full day of testimony was an emotional one that started with the playing

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are madeline grant of the telegraph and former scottish labour leader kezia dugdale. welcome to you both. quite a few front page is already in. let's just look for what we've got so far. the metro leads on the police watchdog report — over the met police's handling of the sarah everard vigil earlier this month: the report found the police's response was "measured and proportionate." the financial times reports that the makers of the pfizer covid vaccine, biontech, will increase this year's production target with its us partner by 25%,
10:33 pm
to 2.5 billion doses. the telegraph leads on the news that france and germany are in negotiations with vladimir putin to supply the russian covid vaccine to the eu, after the part—suspension of the oxford/astrazeneca jab. the i reports on a warning from professor adrian hill who led the research to produce the oxford—astrazeneca vaccine — who says britain still does not have enough capacity to manufacture doses. and the guardian has a picture of some youngsters enjoying the warm weather today in north tyneside — as the uk recorded its warmest march day for 53 years. 1968. so, let's begin. i was too young to remember it but it was hot for anyone outside. welcome to you both, nice to see you again. madeline do you want to kick us off with the metro? the vigil demo, cops and the clear, complete exoneration? i demo, cops and the clear, complete exoneration?—

10:35 pm
speaking to a lot of people and looking at social media, the first snapshot view that all of us saw perhaps were people being arrested was not press the true story. weill. was not press the true story. well, i still think— was not press the true story. well, i still think is _ was not press the true story. well, i still think is a _ was not press the true story. well, i still think is a debatable - was not press the true story. well, i still think is a debatable point. i i still think is a debatable point. the question isjust how interdependent is this review? some people _ interdependent is this review? some people described as an independent review_ people described as an independent review but others describe it as a police _ review but others describe it as a police inspectorate but the issue is the fact— police inspectorate but the issue is the fact that that image of the woman— the fact that that image of the woman on the ground being held down by police _ woman on the ground being held down by police officers spoke to a wider issue _ by police officers spoke to a wider issue of— by police officers spoke to a wider issue ofjust the clapham common that night— issue ofjust the clapham common that night to make you see the image on the _ that night to make you see the image on the streets and it spoke to women being _ on the streets and it spoke to women being held _ on the streets and it spoke to women being held down by police officers and speaking to a much wider issue then policing that night. but the report— then policing that night. but the report exonerates the police, the strongest — report exonerates the police, the strongest criticism was that the communication between police could've — communication between police could've been better than it was, but it— could've been better than it was, but it helps cressida dick no doubt about _ but it helps cressida dick no doubt about that — but it helps cressida dick no doubt about that. but but it helps cressida dick no doubt about that. �* ., ,.,

10:40 pm
vaccine. but if that is communicated by european leaders have the effects of scaring off other demographics which it might well, then the risks of that communication could be greater to the population as a whole. i think we have seen a lot during the pandemic that it is easy to get people scared about something and quite difficult to un—scare them. and quite difficult to un-scare them. : :, , , :, them. and we have been here several times before. — them. and we have been here several times before, just _ them. and we have been here several times before, just on _ them. and we have been here several times before, just on that _ them. and we have been here several times before, just on that point - them. and we have been here several times before, just on that point to - times before, just on that point to madalyn and kezia as well, it is a strange that none of the trials and regulatory bodies in this country have picked up on any of this. that is what is such a disconnect because without disputing any of the trials carried out elsewhere, it is just not that we have not picked up the same things. it is not that we have not picked up the same things-— same things. it is absolutely bizarre. we _ same things. it is absolutely bizarre. we have _ same things. it is absolutely bizarre. we have not - same things. it is absolutely bizarre. we have not heard i same things. it is absolutely i bizarre. we have not heard this happening on a grand scale (and where the oxford/astrazeneca vaccine is now the more predominant version being used, there was a study that looked at the recipients of both the
10:41 pm
pfizer and astrazeneca vaccines in wales and did not find a single example of blood clotting cases. it is worth looking into but i suppose we have to be very careful if you imply there is a causal connection between us on the because they come —— because the consequence of the application can be very serious... should we go into the y because this is talking about the uk warning vaccine... what is he warning? brute vaccine... what is he warning? we exce -t in vaccine... what is he warning? we except in the united kingdom that the vaccine road has been one of the limited _ the vaccine road has been one of the limited successes of the government throughout the pandemic not least because _ throughout the pandemic not least because they have been able to secure — because they have been able to secure so — because they have been able to secure so many fax occasions where ahead _ secure so many fax occasions where ahead of— secure so many fax occasions where ahead of other countries —— vaccination. the manufacturing of these _ vaccination. the manufacturing of these vaccinations tend to not be in these vaccinations tend to not be in the united — these vaccinations tend to not be in the united kingdom and we have to inrport— the united kingdom and we have to import them and one of the leading scientists— import them and one of the leading scientists from oxford behind this vaccine _ scientists from oxford behind this vaccine is — scientists from oxford behind this vaccine is warning there is a big problem — vaccine is warning there is a big problem developing in the uk because we don't _ problem developing in the uk because we don't have the manufacturing

10:43 pm
people inside government you understood it was important to have uk —based manufacturers and so on. yes and that is before this idea which your paper published today of a global coalition, a treaty to prevent isolationism, nationalism, and vaccine nationalism as well. do you think that will be successful bearing in mind what we see at the moment now? india is now producing vaccines and refusing to export those until they have dealt with those until they have dealt with those in their own population. it feels very much like a 2—stage process — feels very much like a 2—stage process. lots of countries are very focused _ process. lots of countries are very focused on — process. lots of countries are very focused on vaccinating the most vulnerable people and getting the economy moving again but that doesn't — economy moving again but that doesn't mean people can go on an easyjet _ doesn't mean people can go on an easyjet and go on holiday. we will not be _ easyjet and go on holiday. we will not be up — easyjet and go on holiday. we will not be up to do that and to other countries — not be up to do that and to other countries have the same levels of vaccination — countries have the same levels of vaccination as we have here and that's— vaccination as we have here and that's nry— vaccination as we have here and that's my vaccine nationalism in the lon- that's my vaccine nationalism in the long term _ that's my vaccine nationalism in the long term is — that's my vaccine nationalism in the long term is such a dangerous thing. ithink— long term is such a dangerous thing. i think once — long term is such a dangerous thing. i think once the uk government once they get— i think once the uk government once they get the point of getting all they get the point of getting all the pretty groups vaccinated and we
