nicola sturgeon says she wants the scottish people to have the right to choose their future. there is simply no democratic justification whatsoever for borisjohnson, or indeed for anyone else, seeking to block the right of the people of scotland to choose our own future. deputy labour leader angela rayner is removed as party chair after labour's poor performance in the local election results. labour's sadiq khan is on course to be re—elected mayor of london following a closer than expected race against conservative candidate shaun bailey. in wales, labour's mark drakeford remains first minister after his party took half of the 60 seats in the senedd. disruption continues on some of the uk's busiest rail lines — passengers are advised not to travel tomorrow after cracks were found on some high—speed trains.

a man in his 20s is held in connection with the murder of the police community support officerjulia james in kent. and an undercover investigation — the queen's cousin, prince michael of kent, is secretly filmed talking about taking money from a prospective client for access to the kremlin. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are rachel cunliffe, deputy online editor at the new statesman, and john stevens, deputy political editor at the daily mail. tomorrow's front pages, starting with... the telegraph goes on two big stories from the 2021 elections. nicola sturgeon failing to win a clear majority
10:33 pm
in the scottish parliament and the labour party descending into what the paper calls a civil war following the sacking of party chair angel rayner. the mail on sunday says borisjohnson has thrown down the gauntlet to nicola sturgeon over scottish independence by urging her tojoin a uk—wide council of war to rebuild the nation after covid. the express says borisjohnson has promised britain a brighterfuture after his government was buoyed by historic election results across the country. the sunday times gives more details — it says borisjohnson is to lay out plans in the queen's speech for a historic rejection of traditional free—market economics, promising to bring jobs and skills direct to red wall areas so people can thrive where they grew up. and the sunday mirror says sunseeking brits face paying £960 on covid tests for a family of four — more than the cost of some holdays.
10:34 pm
so let's begin... we look at the sunday telegraph festival. rachel, what do you make a fist focusing on the snp and labour i think the results and over the last couple of days is a political wash—out test, you see enter them whatever your pre—existing conceptions were, and it's interesting that the telegraph are going big on the snp failing to win a majority under a system where it is virtually impossible, in fact it was designed to prevent any single party winning a majority, and the snp fell one short of that majority, so they, the snp, our billing this as a huge victory for them, winning as a huge victory for them, winning a fourth term in government and increasing the number of
10:35 pm

10:37 pm
long as people use their common sense, borisjohnson will apparently say tomorrow, according to christopher hope. this is the feel good stuff that the prime minister want to follow up those election results with. i want to follow up those election results with.— want to follow up those election results with. ~ ., ., ., results with. i think we have got to the oint results with. i think we have got to the point now _ results with. i think we have got to the point now where _ results with. i think we have got to the point now where people - results with. i think we have got to the point now where people know. results with. i think we have got to - the point now where people know what they are _ the point now where people know what they are willing to do and what risks_ they are willing to do and what risks they— they are willing to do and what risks they are willing to take. they might— risks they are willing to take. they might think they have not been able to see _ might think they have not been able to see their family and friends for a long _ to see their family and friends for a long time, if they do decide to meet _ a long time, if they do decide to meet up — a long time, if they do decide to meet up with them, surely grandparents can hug their children, people _ grandparents can hug their children, pennie can _ grandparents can hug their children, people can wash their hands, not mixing _ people can wash their hands, not mixing with too many people, and i think— mixing with too many people, and i think it's _ mixing with too many people, and i think it's sensible for the pm to say it's— think it's sensible for the pm to say it's up— think it's sensible for the pm to say it's up to people to make that judgment — say it's up to people to make that judgment call on what they think the film judgment call on what they think the right and _ judgment call on what they think the right and appropriate thing to do is. .,. right and appropriate thing to do is. ., . ., ., right and appropriate thing to do is. .,. ., ., ,., right and appropriate thing to do is. rachel, what do you think of this, welcome _ is. rachel, what do you think of this, welcome or _ is. rachel, what do you think of this, welcome or risky? - is. rachel, what do you think of this, welcome or risky? i- is. rachel, what do you think of this, welcome or risky? i read l this, welcome or risky? i read headlines _ this, welcome or risky? i read headlines like _ this, welcome or risky? i read headlines like that _ this, welcome or risky? i read headlines like that and - this, welcome or risky? i read headlines like that and it - this, welcome or risky? i read l headlines like that and it makes this, welcome or risky? i read - headlines like that and it makes me realise what a dystopian year we have been living through when the telegraph celebrates the fact it is no longer going to be against
10:38 pm
government policy to hug your loved ones. it's quite terrifying how far we have come. of course people have for some time now be making decisions about the risks they are willing to take, in particular... given how the vaccine the latter is going and how many of the vast majority have been vaccinated. something things that will hopefully change now that meeting endorses legal soon is that all those couples who do not live together who have effectively been unable to hug or do anything else for most of the past year, we have had a de facto sex ban in this country for most of the past year, that will also be resolved. that does not get mentioned very often, it's always grandparents and grandchildren, which of course is important, but there are tens of thousands of couples in the uk who have been starved of physical affection of the last year. you obviously _ affection of the last year. you obviously can _ affection of the last year. you obviously can form _ affection of the last year. you obviously can form above with someone if you are talking with two people living on their own but i
10:39 pm
guess if they are living with other members of a family then perhaps they cannot see their partner. let's stay away from politics for a moment because there's plenty more of it coming up! the sunday mirror, the potential bill for test for families who want to travel abroad for a holiday, it will cost more than you are a whole, says the sunday mirror, this will be one of a number of conundrums people will face if they are going on holiday this summer, if they can get a blow to the destination they want to go to. —— abroad. and i wonder whether the costs of these tests will be forced down. there is a driver that in some areas, to bring the cost of these tests down and also airport operators and travel industry operators and travel industry operators arguing that if we are talking about green destinations, they should not be any tests at all.
10:40 pm
going on holiday this summer sounds like a _ going on holiday this summer sounds like a complete nightmare. on friday we had _ like a complete nightmare. on friday we had the _ like a complete nightmare. on friday we had the announcement of the 12 green _ we had the announcement of the 12 green countries where you do not have _ green countries where you do not have so_ green countries where you do not have so many restrictions when you come _ have so many restrictions when you come back— have so many restrictions when you come back into the country but most of those _ come back into the country but most of those are — come back into the country but most of those are places like australia and new— of those are places like australia and new zealand which banned tourists, — and new zealand which banned tourists, and then they have talk about _ tourists, and then they have talk about the — tourists, and then they have talk about the costs of testing because people _ about the costs of testing because people arriving back into the country. _ people arriving back into the country, some people have to have one test. _ country, some people have to have one test, you may have to have up to three. _ one test, you may have to have up to three. and _ one test, you may have to have up to three, and the mirror is making the point _ three, and the mirror is making the point that— three, and the mirror is making the point that all these tests are so expensive they could end up costing much _ expensive they could end up costing much more — expensive they could end up costing much more than a holiday, and that's before _ much more than a holiday, and that's before you _ much more than a holiday, and that's before you start thinking about other— before you start thinking about other things such as accusing airports, _ other things such as accusing airports, people arriving to the country. — airports, people arriving to the country, they have to have these forms _ country, they have to have these forms filled out, to show they have done _ forms filled out, to show they have done the _ forms filled out, to show they have done the right thing, which country they are _ done the right thing, which country they are arriving from, have they done _ they are arriving from, have they done tests — they are arriving from, have they done tests and stuff like that? holidays — done tests and stuff like that? holidays are meant to be a relaxing thing _ holidays are meant to be a relaxing thing and _ holidays are meant to be a relaxing thing and thisjust sounds like a total— thing and thisjust sounds like a total nightmare not relaxing at all. rachel, _ total nightmare not relaxing at all. rachel, do— total nightmare not relaxing at all. rachel, do you think this will drive the move towards staycations, as we
10:41 pm
saw last year? i the move towards staycations, as we saw last year?— saw last year? i think it almost certainly already _ saw last year? i think it almost certainly already has. - saw last year? i think it almost certainly already has. i - saw last year? i think it almost certainly already has. i did - saw last year? i think it almost certainly already has. i did go i certainly already has. i did go abroad last summer and looking at the difference between last summer and what looks like to be this summer, a vast amount more hassle and queues as is indeed the case. as well as the cost of these tests we need to think about the process. there was an investigation last month about the test for people coming into the country, if they were coming from countries from where it was possible to quarantine at home, and we had reports of people paying hundreds of pounds for a test for one of the government recommended suppliers, and the tests did not turn up or they were given the wrong results as they were not given results at all and were effectively false to stay in quarantine for weeks because the companies that were meant to be handling these tests could not handle demands, many fail to get their money back, a huge amount of difficulty going on with the private providers of these tests which are very different to the lateral flow test we can get twice a week, now is
10:42 pm
a different protest —— process. so if you're saying to the country, you can go abroad but you need to pay for these tests and rely on these companies in order to get your test results there is a huge amount of potential chaos that will be in store for us on that front. the mirror says £960 for a family of four, 200 and £40 a test, so more than the cost of a holiday itself in some cases. than the cost of a holiday itself in some cases— than the cost of a holiday itself in some cases. let's move on to the sunday times- — some cases. let's move on to the sunday times. it _ some cases. let's move on to the sunday times. it has _ some cases. let's move on to the sunday times. it has on - some cases. let's move on to the sunday times. it has on one - some cases. let's move on to the sunday times. it has on one side | some cases. let's move on to the l sunday times. it has on one side of the front page shaken starlet wields the front page shaken starlet wields the knife, brain drain to the cities, i will stop, the knife, brain drain to the cities, iwill stop, the the knife, brain drain to the cities, i will stop, the voters that propelled boris johnson cities, i will stop, the voters that propelled borisjohnson to election victory will no longer have to leave their home towns to find well—paid work under plans to be outlined in the queen's speech, it is described as a historic rejection of traditional free—market economics. an ambitious plan, with the prime minister be able to deliver on this?
10:43 pm
that will be one of the problems for the government. they have got these massive _ the government. they have got these massive supports in these redwall areas. _ massive supports in these redwall areas. and — massive supports in these redwall areas, and are possibly blue wall areas. _ areas, and are possibly blue wall areas, places like the north—east have _ areas, places like the north—east have voted — areas, places like the north—east have voted for the tories and then have _ have voted for the tories and then have come — have voted for the tories and then have come through in massive numbers a-ain have come through in massive numbers again this _ have come through in massive numbers again this weekend in the local elections, but a lot of the stuff about — elections, but a lot of the stuff about moving jobs out of london and bringing _ about moving jobs out of london and bringing investment to these areas takes _ bringing investment to these areas takes quite a bit of time. obviously boris _ takes quite a bit of time. obviously borisjohnson will use takes quite a bit of time. obviously boris johnson will use the queen's speech— boris johnson will use the queen's speech on— boris johnson will use the queen's speech on tuesday to get on with the 'ob speech on tuesday to get on with the job of— speech on tuesday to get on with the job of levelling up and doing things. _ job of levelling up and doing things, the phrase in the sunday times— things, the phrase in the sunday times about live locally and prosper, _ times about live locally and prosper, saying to people you don't need _ prosper, saying to people you don't need to— prosper, saying to people you don't need to leave your home town to get a great _ need to leave your home town to get a greatiob — need to leave your home town to get a greatjob. that is a great idea. if a greatjob. that is a great idea. if the _ a greatjob. that is a great idea. if the government manages to deliver that that _ if the government manages to deliver that that is _ if the government manages to deliver that that is brilliant but ijust think— that that is brilliant but ijust think it — that that is brilliant but ijust think it would take quite a bit of time _ think it would take quite a bit of time to— think it would take quite a bit of time to get in place all the bits of infrastructure, but the government has to— infrastructure, but the government has to show by the time the next election— has to show by the time the next election comes round it has restarted that process. it�*s restarted that process. it's measurable _ restarted that process. it's measurable in _ restarted that process. it's measurable in a _ restarted that process. it�*s measurable in a way, so something has to be done to be measured,
10:44 pm
otherwise i guess people willjudge at the next election and, rachel, if we contrast that with the other side of the front page, talking about other possible casualties of a reshuffle this week, do you think the nature of the coverage of labour�*s performance and what keir starmer has done so far in removing angela raynerfrom a couple starmer has done so far in removing angela rayner from a couple of roles is fair? i angela rayner from a couple of roles is fair? , ., �* , ., , is fair? i 'ust don't understand his thinkin: is fair? ijust don't understand his thinking on _ is fair? ijust don't understand his thinking on this. _ is fair? ijust don't understand his thinking on this. labour _ is fair? ijust don't understand his thinking on this. labour got - is fair? ijust don't understand his thinking on this. labour got a - thinking on this. labour got a good... not a good set of election results but not necessarily as bad as is being discussed. they lost to hartlepool by—election but if you looked at the vote in the 2019 election and a share of the vote went to the brexit party, the conservatives were to win and they did, tremendous results for labour
10:45 pm
in wales, historic results for labour in wales, and obviously north of the border the snp which has been in powerfor many of the border the snp which has been in power for many years getting another turn you here, so what we're seeing across the nations of the uk is not necessarily rejection of labour, it is voters sticking with a party in power which in the midst of a pandemic actually makes sense. you look to the party that has helped you through this incredibly difficult time, national leadership, help with the vaccine roll—out, coming out of the pandemic, a feel—good edge to it there, that all makes sense and it looks on track to win the london mayoral election there. �* , win the london mayoral election there. 3 . win the london mayoral election there. �* , ., win the london mayoral election there. �*, ., ., ., ., there. there's a delay in one area which is stopping _ there. there's a delay in one area which is stopping us _ there. there's a delay in one area which is stopping us from - there. there's a delay in one area which is stopping us from finding | which is stopping us from finding out the result is yet or at least the declaration of it. the sunday express does not look at the snp or but focuses entirely on the conservative party with boris' plan

10:48 pm
a new direction for the conservative party, and that is something for in the that is where their announcements all are, that is the impression they want to give, how far are they actually prepared to legislate for that? how much can you legislate for that? how much can you legislate for that? parties have been trying for many years to fix this problem, and can you direct having just lost a year to the pandemic? can you do it before the next election to have tangible results? quite a big challenge. t results? quite a big challenge. i want to fit in the mail as well, we must unite as team uk, borisjohnson carried down the gauntlet to nicola sturgeon by urging her tojoin carried down the gauntlet to nicola sturgeon by urging her to join a carried down the gauntlet to nicola sturgeon by urging her tojoin a uk wide council of to rebuild the nation after covid, so is this keep your political friends close and your political friends close and your enemies even closer? boris johnson your enemies even closer? boris johnson is _ your enemies even closer? boris johnson is inviting _ your enemies even closer? boris johnson is inviting nicola - your enemies even closer? boris johnson is inviting nicola stay i your enemies even closer? boris johnson is inviting nicola stay up -- nicola— johnson is inviting nicola stay up —— nicola sturgeon and mark drakeford to a summit on

10:50 pm
they should have made it 2—0 but sergio aguero was left red—faced after his attempt at a panenka penalty was easily saved. chelsea were the better side in the second half and equalised through hakim ziyech's powerful strike. and then they took all three points in stoppage time — marcos alonso scoring the winner. city can now win the league if manchester united lose at aston villa tomorrow. if not, then city can win the title at newcastle next friday. as for chelsea, they are now looking good for a top four finish before meeting city again in the champions league final at the end of the month. we can rely on our team spirit and on the fighting spirit and on this effort, this team never stops, they hate to lose and they want it bad, and if you put into context we have travelled to come here, i cannot be more proud today and underline what
10:51 pm
effort this team put onto the pitch today. it was all about the relegation battle on the last day of the championship season and wayne rooney's derby county have stayed up at sheffield wednesday's expense. wednesday took the lead twice, but it finished 3—3, martyn waghorn with the all—important equaliser, his second of the game from the spot. the draw was all derby needed. wednesday drop down to league one along with wycombe and rotherham. hibernian are into to the scottish cup final after a 2—0 win over dundee united. hibs deservedly took the lead mid—way through the first half, thanks to this nice finish from kevin nisbet. and then christian doidge confirmed their place in the final for the first time since their triumph in 2016 with that goal in the second half. 14 years after his first pole position, lewis hamilton has now taken his hundredth. the reigning world champion edged out title rival max verstappen by 300ths of a second, ahead of sunday's spanish grand prix.
10:52 pm
nick parrott reports. yet another milestone on lewis hamilton's journey to greatness. it's perhaps no surprise he achieved this landmark in barcelona, where he has taken four of the last five poles. but he didn't dominate proceedings. mclaren topped the time sheets in the first session of qualifying, but hamilton's rival, max verstappen, was quicker in the second session. but as is often the case for the seven time world champion, he was best when it mattered, setting a time in the final session that no one could beat. 0nly five teams in formula 1's history have secured 100 poles and hamilton now has 32 more than the next best driver, michael schumacher. i can't believe we're at 100 and really it's down to the men and women back at the factory
10:53 pm
who are continuously raising the bar and just never giving up. the support that i have, it's been a dream for me to work with these guys and the journey we've been on has been immense. who would have thought that in 2013 or 2012, when we made the decision to partner, we would qualify at 100? i feel very humble and grateful. i'm ecstatic, it's my first. in barcelona, it's set to be another epic battle between hamilton and verstappen. bristol bears are sure of a place in the play—offs in the rugby union premiership. the leaders trailed their local rivals bath at half—time but roared back to win by 40 points to 20. max maylins scored two of their tries. there were also wins for gloucester, exeter and newcastle. we've had the last of the quarterfinals in rugby league's challenge cup — hull fc beat wigan 20—10 but it was much tighter in the other quarter. castleford needed extra time to get past salford.
10:54 pm
gareth o'brien's golden point drop goal saw them make it through to the last four. 19 points to 18. in the next few hours, we're going to see the biggest crowd at a us sporting event since the start of the pandemic. 70,000 fans will pack the at&t stadium in arlington, texas, for the super—middleweight unification fight between saul "canelo" alvarez and british fighter billyjoe saunders. it will also be a record for an indoor boxing event in the us. mexico's alvarez is putting two belts on the line against the unbeaten saunders, who holds the wbo title. you're going to see an absolutely boxing masterclass from billyjoe saunders and he will win a unanimous decision over 12 rounds. a lot of gypsy decision over 12 rounds. a lot of gypsy magic in the air, billiejo is on form and is looking in better shape, best i have ever seen him, a real good fight on tomorrow night,
10:55 pm
cannot wait, so happy to be here in texas with all these great boxing fans, it's going to be really good fight, really looking forward to it. you can follow that on the bbc sport website and of course you can keep up—to—date with all today's football scores and that as well. that's all the sport for now. after saturday's cloud and rain brighter skies around per every chance you will see wet weather. really get to the proximity of this area of low pressure, along the front seat outbreaks of rain but more clad than it will be stop still drawing in warmerair more clad than it will be stop still drawing in warmer airfrom the more clad than it will be stop still drawing in warmer air from the south but you do get a bit of sunshine but it was quite pleasant, particularly across south—east england and east anglia which will see the higher temperatures but this is where we start the day. a much milder to stop
