the headlines. witnesses to the arrest of george floyd, 3 black man in the united states whose death sparked protests around the world, have been giving evidence on the second day of the trial of derek chauvin, a white police officer accused of killing him. president bolsonaro of brazil is facing a growing crisis over his leadership after the resignations of the commanders of the army, navy and air force. an official review into the policing of the london vigil held in memory of sarah everard has found that officers "did not act "inappropriately or in a heavy—handed manner". a monitoring group in myanmar says the number of people killed since last month's coup has passed 500. the assistance association for political prisoners confirmed at least 510 deaths, but warned the real figure was probably much higher.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are madeline grant of the telegraph and former scottish labour leader kezia dugdale. welcome back to you both. let's look through what we have already got in. kicking off with at the metro again. it 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% 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. the times leads on the findings of the race review commission set up by the prime minister in response to the black lives matter protests — which says britain is a "model on race" for other countries. the scottish daily express features a picture of the scottish leaders debate that we featured here on the bbc news channel — where nicola sturgeon faced criticism for potentially harming the covid recovery due to her focus on a second independence referendum. the guardian has an exclusive from the chief inspector of ofsted, who claims her warnings

about "potential safeguarding "issues" over sexual abuse in private schools were ignored by ministers. while the express has a picture of people enjoying the hot weather on southend beach — but includes a warning from the health secretary not to "blow it now" and to stick to covid guidelines. it's what we all should have been doing if we could. great to have you back. kezia let's start with you. this diversity report ordered by the prime minister hailed over the narrowing of a race gap, a beacon to the world. , , , ., _, ,, ., the world. yes, this is a commission b the uk the world. yes, this is a commission by the uk government _ the world. yes, this is a commission by the uk government after- the world. yes, this is a commission by the uk government after the - the world. yes, this is a commission l by the uk government after the black lives matter protests last summer went by— lives matter protests last summer went by a — lives matter protests last summer went by a guy who is the educational leader_ went by a guy who is the educational leader for— went by a guy who is the educational leader for a — went by a guy who is the educational leader for a charity that mikey is reporting — leader for a charity that mikey is reporting that if you are british

re ort communities especially online. tie: report doesn't try communities especially online. ti9: report doesn't try to communities especially online. t'i9 report doesn't try to say communities especially online. ti9 report doesn't try to say that we have moved past that kind of racism but it did to but —— but a deep as they did that british is an institutionally racist country. it suggests we are much more an open society than many people realise as kezia said that racial disparity had narrowed in education and employment. and more broadly that it's a good place compared to many other countries that the pessimistic narrative that is often fed doesn't quite ring true. and i think it's a welcome development because i think if you look across the atlantic in what is happening in america, i think we really want to avoid if we can feeding the kind of racial identity politics that have been so poisonous in america. and i think that part of the problem is that there are some people who have an interest in perpetuating this particular narrative which overlooks important nuances. for example the report criticises the term bame to

identify ethnic minority groups which indiscriminately puts all different groups together and in the process ignores lots of important nuances that you would want to know if you were going to figure out how you were going to narrow certain disparities. you would want to know all the facts that you possibly could about it.— all the facts that you possibly could about it. you do but i 'ust wonder kezia iffi could about it. you do but i 'ust wonder kezia if some i could about it. you do but ijust wonder kezia if some groups, l could about it. you do but ijust - wonder kezia if some groups, some activist groups won't accept this. because it runs against the narrative that perhaps they would normally say. i narrative that perhaps they would normally say-— narrative that perhaps they would normally say. i think they would be riaht not normally say. i think they would be right not to — normally say. i think they would be right not to accept _ normally say. i think they would be right not to accept a _ normally say. i think they would be right not to accept a sort _ normally say. i think they would be right not to accept a sort of - normally say. i think they would be right not to accept a sort of carte . right not to accept a sort of carte blanche — right not to accept a sort of carte blanche around race in the country because _ blanche around race in the country because if— blanche around race in the country because if you start from the premise _ because if you start from the premise that black british children are outperforming white british children— are outperforming white british children in schools than you have to ask yourself— children in schools than you have to ask yourself why they not better represented in higher levels of public— represented in higher levels of public life? why do we not have more senior— public life? why do we not have more senior black _ public life? why do we not have more senior black politicians the reality is there _ senior black politicians the reality is there is— senior black politicians the reality is there is there is a racial disparity_ is there is there is a racial disparity because there is an equal participation in all walks of civic or economic life. that seems to happen— or economic life. that seems to happen much later on in life once

uk government in terms of confronting those press conferences every day and being seen to give that sort of information out even if perhaps their record was not a lot better but when you actually pick at the data. let's go into the story about the barnett formula on the telegraph as well. and the barnett formula here under a picture of people on stepping stones in the countryside, it gives the scots 30% more public spending. these are the interesting things to come out kezia when it comes to another independence vote if there is one that in fact the barnett formula gives the scots £1.30 more per head then we get in the south. i spent the best part of ten years elected — spent the best part of ten years elected to the scottish parliament where _ elected to the scottish parliament where we — elected to the scottish parliament where we talked about variants other than the _ where we talked about variants other than the constitution which is the dominant— than the constitution which is the dominant issue in scottish politics and the _ dominant issue in scottish politics and the barnett is at the core of people — and the barnett is at the core of people who are pro—united kingdom's argument _ people who are pro—united kingdom's

and it is one of those long—running stories were members of the public might not be able to tell you in minute detail but all of it means but the general stench emanating is pretty rotten. and it's also not going away because the labour party are calling for a full investigation into david cameron's role and the collapse... the labour party has been through similar scandals in the past. the figures are extraordinary, david cameron, the ft i think said yesterday, stood to make it £70 million and share options. that greensill floated.— greensill floated. there is something _ greensill floated. there is something to _ greensill floated. there is something to look - greensill floated. there is something to look at - greensill floated. there is something to look at here j greensill floated. there is - something to look at here about greensill floated. there is _ something to look at here about what happens _ something to look at here about what happens when senior politicians and senior— happens when senior politicians and senior positions of power leave public— senior positions of power leave public life — senior positions of power leave public life and develop business interests — public life and develop business interests due to the nature of the context _ interests due to the nature of the context they have made over that period _ context they have made over that period of— context they have made over that period of time. it is something we should _ period of time. it is something we should talk— period of time. it is something we should talk about if you want to increase — should talk about if you want to increase faith and trust in the political— increase faith and trust in the political process because as madalyn

with the latest from the bbc sports centre. wales are off the mark, with the first win of their world cup qualifying campaign — but they left it late to seal the points against the czech republic. a fiery match saw both sides have a man sent off in cardiff. 0ur sports correspondent andy swiss reports. 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 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. 0n 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 rodin kept them out. not their prettiest performance, but for wales, the 1—0 win was all that mattered. andy swiss, bbc news. it's now 11 games without a win for republic of ireland manager stephen kenny after his side could only draw 1—1 in a friendly against qatar. ireland made a great start — scoring afterjust four minutes throuthames mcclean at the neutral venue in hungary. but qatar equalised in the second half — mohammed muntari with the goal. ireland also lost their opening two world cup qualifiers — including against luxembourg on saturday — so the pressure will intensify on the manager. england play poland tomorrow. it's a vital game for world cup qualification and the last competitive match before gareth southgate selects his euros squad for the summer. we have obviously got a lot of strength in depth and a lot of competition for places.

but equally, if we had picked this squad this week, we would've had 7—8 people missing with injuries. so, this is a slightly unique season in that regard and we've got another few weeks of the season to get through. so the depth and options might not be as plentiful as we maybe think. five rangers players have been banned for four matches by the scottish fa after breaking lockdown rules to attend an illegal house party. the group contained three first team players, including defender nathan patterson, who's been a prominent part of the team recently as they sealed the scottish premiership title. bongani zungu and calvin bassey have also been banned for attending the party which was broken up by police in february. england hope that forward nikita parris will be able to join up with the squad at some point for their friendly matches against france and canada despite a raft of coronavirus cases at her club side. the fa say the situation involving parris is being regularly assessed after lyon were also forced to postpone their champions league

quarter final second leg. injured captain steph houghton has also been left out as the remaining players attempt to impress the interim boss hege riise who will also be in charge of the gb olympic team. deliver under pressure will be key cos many players know that they play for an olympic spot as well, we can't hide that because that's the reality. so, there will be for us to perform well as a team against a good opponent. rebecca welch will become the first female referee appointed to take charge of an efl game on monday. she'll officiate the league 2 fixture between harrogate and port vale on easter monday. welch has overseen eight national league matches this season, as well as the women's fa cup final at wembley in 2017. she said it was an important step in inspiring young girls who were wondering whether they should take up a career in refereeing. probably two years ago,

people said, "you're a role "model for young girls." that never sat comfortable with me, but now that i've been doing work for the premier league charity where we go out and we work with people in different areas of the country, and people want to hear my story and then are inspired by it. and when i see that, i am quite happy then to take on the title of being a role model. it's been five months since england lifted the women's six nations and the tournament is back this weekend, but with a difference. it doesn't overlap with the men's event and a new broadcast deal means no games are being played at the same time. the biggest change will be a shortened format, seeing two groups of three, with a final round of games to decide positions. the competition's chief executive says this should be a one—off due to the pandemic. we are very happy to have a sort of stand—alone window. that may continue in the future but the actual format i think the dna of the six nation is that round—robin where each team plays against each other with a grand slam at the end. so, i think that will

obviously come back. in terms of the timing of the future window, this is something that we are looking into. but that is in exceptional format for this year. finally, have you ever been confused by the duckworth—lewis—stern method of settling a rain affected cricket match? well, you're not alone! confusion reigned during new zealand's t20 win over bangladesh. a mix up with the maths meant the run target set for bangladesh was increased twice after initial calculations were wrong. they eventually fell short by 28 runs. there you are — happens, doesn't it? that's all the sport for now. hello. the uk saw some exceptional warmth on tuesday, and if your day ended looking something like this with a sunset with a pinkish tinge, you were not mistaken. that is saharan dust affecting the way our skies look and that is because we've pulled air all the way up from the sahara

to import the warmth. it's travelled across western europe, and on tuesday, it made its way right the way into the north of scotland, that warm air. the warmest spot was at 24.5 celsius and that was at kew gardens in west london. there is the possibility on wednesday we could see a similar high, somewhere probably across central or eastern england but a little bit more cloud as possible, too. there could be the odd light shower and that could just peg the temperatures back by a degree or so, but still very warm for england and wales. further to the north though, a front beginning to push south across scotland and northern ireland, weakening as it does so, it won't bring too much in the way of rain. it's drier for western scotland but cooler air moves in to the north and then, that weakening weather front and the cooler air continue to try and make theirjourney south as we look to thursday. basically, the front nothing more than cloud by thursday, but the colder air already starting to make itself felt out to the north and east of the uk. the high pressure will keep things pretty quiet as we head

into the easter weekend. largely light winds, a lot of fine weather, but the big difference will be where you have the sunshine it won't feel anywhere near as warm as it has done on tuesday particularly if you, for example, compare aberdeen from tuesday where temperatures got up to 18 celsius. we'll be lucky to get 8 on thursday. still, 18 or 19 possible though across south wales and the south west of england. by friday, that colder air though has worked its way further westwards. we could see some quite stubborn cloud across eastern counties of england as well and quite a chilly northerly or north—easterly breeze. i say "chilly". the temperatures, well, about where we'd expect them for the time of year. look out for a frost particularly to the north on friday night. easter weekend, it stays chilly but look at this for easter monday. it is a plunge of arctic air, raw—feeling air, strong northerly winds, and this is the weather chart at the moment for easter monday. it may change a little but that signal is pretty clear there. there is a risk of snow showers, even a good way south,

across the uk at the end of the easter weekend.
