ka nte powered through. havertz troubled the crossbar, and werner made sure. and there's the follow—up and this time, it does count! benzema was a constant threat — as chelsea defenders flailed, mendy flew to the rescue once more. chelsea almost made the perfect start to the second half, the confidence coursing against a spent force. but frustration was mounting as chance after chance went begging, until a textbook team effort finally paid off. it's scored by mason mount! the final booked for the brilliant blues — back at europe's top table once more. it isa it is a familiar photo of manchester city who they will face, but today, uefa insisted that there is all english affair will still be held more than 1500 miles from here in istanbul. it is hoped both teams will be able to take around 4000 fans to the final, in just over three weeks�* time. but turkey is in full lockdown right now, sophie.

that�*s also a photo gordon brown campaigning for labour in scotland. similar look to the telegraph which says the government is keen to de—escalate tensions. they opt for an image of borisjohnson cycling in the west midlands. the financial times has a picture of nicola sturgeon on the campaign trail — but leads on archegos capital filing for bankruptcy over $10 billion worth of losses. and the i says holiday makers this summer could face queues of up to ten hours at airports when they return to the uk. so, let�*s begin. i want to discuss. why don�*t we start with the metro? although similar strand most of the front pages, isn�*t it? chris, boris sends in the navy, i development in the last few hours.— in the navy, i development in the last few hours. extraordinary times, we had this — last few hours. extraordinary times, we had this briefing _ last few hours. extraordinary times, we had this briefing out _ last few hours. extraordinary times, we had this briefing out from - last few hours. extraordinary times, l

coincidence but chris is right, in a place like hartlepool which is going to be such an important indicator tomorrow, brexit was a huge issue and it will be a huge issue and these kind of symbols will remind people about the high emotions that ran around all the breaks of campaigning. so i think that this story is very advantageous to the conservatives. it story is very advantageous to the conservatives.— conservatives. it is interesting, i haven't got _ conservatives. it is interesting, i haven't got the _ conservatives. it is interesting, i haven't got the front _ conservatives. it is interesting, i haven't got the front page - conservatives. it is interesting, i haven't got the front page of- conservatives. it is interesting, i j haven't got the front page of the haven�*t got the front page of the telegraph in front of me, chris, but i think it was a saying the government is keen to de—escalate tensions in contrast to the guardian as saying tensions are rising. you t to as saying tensions are rising. you try to de-escalate _ as saying tensions are rising. you try to de—escalate but you are sending — try to de—escalate but you are sending to all sure patrol boats into the — sending to all sure patrol boats into the field of play. i suppose it means _ into the field of play. i suppose it means we — into the field of play. i suppose it means we mean business. this is what brexit— means we mean business. this is what brexit is— means we mean business. this is what brexit is about, at the edges of the uk territorial waters is going to be

the first set of licences have been given a four month amnesty to gather information on friday and unfortunately, some of those licences were not very well received and feelings have run very high. we have heard rhetoric from paris, the minister of the sea on monday and of course at the weekend, we heard that french fishermen were thinking of coming tojersey and french fishermen were thinking of coming to jersey and potentially blockading our main harbour. can you tell me a little _ blockading our main harbour. can you tell me a little bit _ blockading our main harbour. can you tell me a little bit more _ blockading our main harbour. can you tell me a little bit more about - blockading our main harbour. can you tell me a little bit more about what i tell me a little bit more about what conversations officials in jersey have had with the uk government? irate have had with the uk government? - have had with the uk government? - have been working in effect lockstep with the uk government because that is what is required under the new trade deal to agree the terms of those licences so that they comply with the terms of the new trade deal about protecting historic fishing rights and our waters for french fishermen as well as jersey. we have

done all of that work, it has been notified to the eu but because it�*s a change from our old relationship with france through something called an agreement, it was always going to be difficult and challenging and so is proving. find be difficult and challenging and so is rovinu. �* ., be difficult and challenging and so is rovinu. . ., ., ., be difficult and challenging and so is rovinu. �* ., ., ., ., is proving. and going forward, how can this be — is proving. and going forward, how can this be resolved? _ is proving. and going forward, how can this be resolved? the - is proving. and going forward, how. can this be resolved? the resolution has to be through _ can this be resolved? the resolution has to be through diplomacy - can this be resolved? the resolution has to be through diplomacy but - can this be resolved? the resolution has to be through diplomacy but we| has to be through diplomacy but we take the threats from france fear here is seriously. we think that the threats emanating from paris are disproportionate to the technical issues around licencing and this evening, the prime minister offered to send assets into jersey waters as a precautionary measure and to oversee jersey waters in that regard because we take a threat to blockade our harbour very seriously as well. senator ian gorst, ministerfor

external relations in jersey, senator ian gorst, ministerfor external relations injersey, we senator ian gorst, ministerfor external relations in jersey, we are very grateful for your time, thanks for joining very grateful for your time, thanks forjoining us on bbc news.- forjoining us on bbc news. thank ou. so let�*s return to the papers and with me the chief political correspondent at the daily telegraph christopher hope and a times radio presenter and evening standard calmness ayesha hazireka. thank you for your patience there but as i say a developing story this evening. let�*s move onto other papers now and i think we are moving onto financial times. ayesha, what is this was like you were talking about a brexity story earlier. i do love this headline... this is a diary from michel barnier. tell us more about this one. ~ . a, michel barnier. tell us more about this one. ~ . 1, , michel barnier. tell us more about this one. ~ . , ., ., this one. michel barnier is going to be publishing _ this one. michel barnier is going to be publishing his _ this one. michel barnier is going to be publishing his diaries _ this one. michel barnier is going to be publishing his diaries in - this one. michel barnier is going to be publishing his diaries in frenchl be publishing his diaries in french tomorrow and in english and later on

and he basically has been pretty critical about boris johnson�*s strategy in terms of how he negotiated brexit and his approach with it. as you say he describes it as a "madman strategy" and michel barnier says that he came close to losing faith in the uk�*s ability to keep it�*s word. i think that is something the uk is coming with as well because truth source —— seems to be a loose term at the moment. it is very interesting because the book is very interesting because the book is called the grand illusion, a secret diary of brexit. and it will be fascinated to hear his take on things, it will make a lot of people very angry, i am sure chris is going to have lots of things to say about michel barnier and all of this but it is going to be fascinating and it is going to flare the whole thing up again because we literally, it seems like we have fallen in love with
