one year injured and we cannot use him many times but maybe arrive at the right moment. at the other end of the table, brighton have all but secured premier league football for another season. they beat leeds 2—0 — danny welbeck with their second — a lovely bit of skill to score this solo effort. the win moves brighton up to 14th — ten points above the relegation zone. meanwhile fulham are still deep in trouble after they were beaten 2—0 by chelsea. kai havertz scored both of the goals to give his side a boost in their hunt for a champions league place. but everton�*s hopes of finishing in the top four took a blow as they were beaten 2—1 by aston villa. anwar el ghazi with a superb second half winner. norwich city will return to the premier leasgue next season as championship winners. they beat reading yesterday to seal the title. they were already promoted, but the win means a second championship win in three seasons for daniel farke�*s squad.

it was one of the most eagerly anticipated fights in women's boxing and last night the bout between katie taylor and natasha jonas certainly did not disappoint. the pair, who fought as amateurs back at the london 2012 0lympics went ten very even rounds but katie taylorjust managed to cling on to maintain her undefeated record and remain as the undisputed world lightweight champion. joseph parker recovered from being knocked down in the opening ten seconds to beat derek chisora on points in their heavyweight contest. chisora floored parker at manchester arena with an overhand right to the temple. but the former world champion fought back and grew stronger as the contest moved into the later rounds. he eventually won via a split decision. the world snooker championship final gets under way later today in front of a capacity crowd in sheffield. 2005 winner shaun murphy pulled off a stunning comeback to beat kyren wilson in his semifinal. he won eight frames in a row to go from 12—9 down to win17—12.
9:34 am
murphy is through to his fourth world championship final and his first since 2015. i'd be struggling to find a time from, you know, so far behind in a match where i've and, erm, no—one�*s more shocked than me! you know? i've had a terrible run here in the last few years, and played out in that very arena and made the game look very easy at times and made it look unquestionably the most difficult game in the world. so, ithink, you know — john will back me up — it's when you're out there, it can be brutal or it can be the best place in the world. it can be brutal or it can be murphy will take on the three—time world champion mark selby. this outrageous piece of good fortune helped him eventually beat stuart bingham in an epic match by 17 frames to 15. valterri bottas will start on pole ahead of mercedes team—mate lewis hamilton for this afternoon's portuguese grand prix. red bull's max verstappen is third on the grid thanks
9:35 am
to the windy conditions at portimao. the dutchman had set a time fast enough for pole, but was blown off course and had his time deleted. bottas went quickest, just a fraction of a second quicker than championship leader hamilton. qualifying wasn't the greatest, still, erm, but really greatjob that we're front row. and i think tomorrow we should be. hopefully it's a calmer day wind—wise, and hopefully we can have a really good race. it's the 1000 guineas at newmarket this afternoon and if the race is anything like yesterday's 2000 guineas it will be a real treat. it was won by poetic flair, in the white, at 16—1 — who just beat master of the seas, in a photo finish. the result also proved age is no barrier in racing — jockey kevin manning is 5a while the owner, breeder and trainer of poetic flair — jim bolger — is 79. england scrum—half ben youngs has withdrawn from contention for the british and irish lions tour of south africa because of family
9:36 am
reasons. youngs had been one of more than 50 players to receive notification from lions management that he was under consideration for selection. however he's decided to decline, citing his two young children and the fact his wife is heavily pregnant with their third. youngs says he wishes "everyone involved a healthy and the fact his wife is heavily pregnant with their third. youngs says he wishes "everyone involved a healthy and successful tour." and there was agony for geraint thomas, who was denied victory on the fourth stage of the tour of romandie after crashing within metres of the finish line. he was on course to take the overall lead even if he hadn't won the stage, but the tricky conditions in switzerland took him by surprise. thomas eventually finished third and remains second overall ahead of today's final stage. it looked a nasty crash but he has tweeted so say he's 0k. "well, what a shocker of a final 100 metres. i had no feeling in my hands so when i tried to change gear, ijust lost my grip on the bars. i'm all good, though," he says.

now on bbc news, here's the papers. hello and welcome to our look at today's front pages. with me is business journalist, john crowley and women's editor at the daily telegraph, claire cohen. the sunday times reveals that health officials are drawing up plans to offer school children the pfizer vaccine from september. the telegraph — it says the prime minister will try to save the union by investing billions on new road and rail links and treating scottish patients on english nhs beds. the express argues britain is now ready for what they call

hit a seven month low. as with many of today's papers, the express also shows a picture of princess charlotte on her sixth birthday. the mail on sunday leads on a piece by the prime minister, borisjohnson in which he lists a number of covid restrictions which could soon be eased. the observer covers a warning from experts that the pandemic will overwhelm health services in many developing nations in the coming weeks. and finally — �*now we're sucking diesel�* — the daily star teases ahead to the grand �*line of duty�* series 6 finale which airs this evening on bbc one. john, do you want to kick us off with the sunday times? nhs vaccine

9:46 am
some forward—looking view of leaving the european union. economics alone may not actually be enough. i wonder if you think that is enough of an argument being made beyond economics, beyond indeed offering more cash to stay, because i have not had any speeches of the prime minister saying this is why you should stay in the union, this is why the union matters. he says the union is great but does not really articulate a vision for what that means. i articulate a vision for what that means. ., �* articulate a vision for what that means. . �* ., , , articulate a vision for what that means. . �* . , , ., means. i haven't really seen that in the decade — means. i haven't really seen that in the decade of _ means. i haven't really seen that in the decade of the _ means. i haven't really seen that in the decade of the 21st _ means. i haven't really seen that in the decade of the 21st century - means. i haven't really seen that in the decade of the 21st century right| the decade of the 21st century right know what britain means the people and one thing about the pandemic certainly brought home to me, someone who livesjust certainly brought home to me, someone who lives just outside london is how much control each of the four countries have been taking over dealing with coronavirus and her normal that seemed and the different powers they have gone on so this is just a question about scotland, it's a question about wales and perhaps the welsh
9:47 am
government will be asking where is our dosh? and the same with the northern ireland assembly and everything that has happened there and this week they might have that too so it's a really big moment and it doesn't feel that the prime minister really has his hand on the tiller, just kind of throwing some money around and student exchanges, that's one of the other things that is being offered. is it really good enough at the moment? it's not going to convince you if you feel an emotional connection to scotland, is that really going to change so you feel? irate that really going to change so you feel? ~ ~ , that really going to change so you feel? ~ ,, ,, feel? we keep persisting with caettin a feel? we keep persisting with getting a better _ feel? we keep persisting with getting a better line - feel? we keep persisting with getting a better line with - feel? we keep persisting with l getting a better line with claire. john, the other thing to pick up on the points were making, we shouldn't entirely forget england and all of this. there is no england devolution, there is no equivalent of the first minister for england.
9:48 am
people used to argue for an english parliament. we had a regional assembly rejected, went for the elected mayors in some places. is that a big? when you talk about england and our constitution? i was listenin: to england and our constitution? i was listening to bbc _ england and our constitution? i was listening to bbc radio _ england and our constitution? i was listening to bbc radio for _ england and our constitution? i —" listening to bbc radio for any questions and any answers and some people were saying why don't we have a c as people based in england because it affects the whole country? —— have a say. there is a sense that what has happened over the last few years over brexit, with the last few years over brexit, with the pandemic, the ties and bonds of union is splintering and it is all being seen through the prism of either scotland, northern ireland or wales. but what does this mean for england now? there are huge question marks about how we govern ourselves
9:49 am
and how we perceive ourselves,. claire a last thought on this. we had to redial and re—establish the connection and hopefully it is much more stable now. in terms of this vision, as a cheque—book enough? does borisjohnson need to be seeing something more if these results go as the newspapers suggest they might on thursday in scotland? ida. i as the newspapers suggest they might on thursday in scotland?— on thursday in scotland? no, i don't think throwing _ on thursday in scotland? no, i don't think throwing cash _ on thursday in scotland? no, i don't think throwing cash is _ on thursday in scotland? no, i don't think throwing cash is necessarily i think throwing cash is necessarily enough — think throwing cash is necessarily enough i— think throwing cash is necessarily enough. i think the fact he is so desperately what it shows just how fragile _ desperately what it shows just how fragile the union has become and we know— fragile the union has become and we know that _ fragile the union has become and we know that if— fragile the union has become and we know that if the scottish independence referendum goes ahead the welsh might be interested in the same _ the welsh might be interested in the same thing. northern ireland have made _ same thing. northern ireland have made mumblings as well and we are in a very— made mumblings as well and we are in a very uncertain moment when it comes— a very uncertain moment when it comes to — a very uncertain moment when it comes to the union and i think it would _ comes to the union and i think it would be — comes to the union and i think it would be much wiser and more prudent to work— would be much wiser and more prudent to work on— would be much wiser and more prudent to work on strengthening those bonds rather— to work on strengthening those bonds rather than _ to work on strengthening those bonds rather thanjust to work on strengthening those bonds rather than just throwing cash at scotland — rather than 'ust throwing cash at scotland. , ., ., ~'

9:52 am
mail has campaigned time limit tirelessly for that so that's a victory for them. regarding holidays, we always seem to be upset and we say we deserve a holiday at the moment but a lot of people want to travel because they want to go and see family and friends abroad and see family and friends abroad and it is not all about going to benidorm and having a drink on the beach. it is a massive deal that is being opened up. as claire is saying it feels incongruous while you have places like india and other parts of the world with a health system is actually collapsing and you do not know what is going to happen so there is this the feeling we are all going to come back to normal feels a little bit unreal, to be honest. claire, if you fancy that trip to benidorm for a drink on the beach it looks like you might have some help projecting you or even if you're really lucky to carry new as that is a new ship the government is
