deputy labour leader angela rayner is removed as party chair after labour's poor performance in the local election results. in wales, labour's mark drakeford remains first minister after his party took half of the 60 seats in the senedd. in other news, dozens of people have been killed, many of them schoolgirls, in a militant attack in the afghan capital, kabul. 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. before we look at the papers, let's return to that result announced in city hall in the past hour, where labour's sadiq khan has been re—elected to serve as the mayor of london. here's some of what he had to say after the declaration. i'm a londoner through and through. this city is in my blood. but i'm also a patriotic englishman

and a brit who's proud to represent this nation's great capital. the experiences i've had through my life have shaped my belief that we all have a responsibility to do everything we can to build the bridges that bring us together rather than the walls that can only drive us further apart. this virus doesn't care whether you live in london or liverpool, whether you're a brexiteer or a remainer, or what you think it means to be woke. we're only defeating it together and by helping each other. so, now, we must capture and harness that spirit of unity and cooperation to build a better and brighterfuture. and it's in this spirit i promise to lead london over the next three years, building bridges between

the different communities in our city, building bridges across cultural, social and class divides, building bridges between london and the rest of the country to ensure london can play its part in a national recovery, and building bridges between city hall and the government. because we must all work together to build a brighter, greener and more equalfuture for london and for our entire country after the pandemic. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what 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 in the scottish parliament, and the labour party descending into what the paper calls a "civil war" following the sacking of party chair angela rayner. on scotland, the herald calls the result a landslide and says a triumphant nicola sturgeon has declared a second independence referendum "the will of the people". 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 the prime minister has promised britain "a brighter future" 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 sun—seeking brits face paying £960 we were showing you the herald there which he wanted to show you earlier. and the sunday mirror says sun—seeking brits face paying £960 on covid tests for a family of four, more than the cost of some holidays. so, let's begin. let's start off with the sunday telegraph than and nicholas sturgeon falls short of a majority. a civil war in labour erupts. not a majority for the snp, one seat short of that,

but a majority of pro—independence scottish msps we take the green party into account. give us a summary. party into account. give us a summary-— party into account. give us a summa . ., ., ., , summary. you mention the scottish herald a moment _ summary. you mention the scottish herald a moment ago _ summary. you mention the scottish herald a moment ago calling - summary. you mention the scottish herald a moment ago calling it - summary. you mention the scottish herald a moment ago calling it a - herald a moment ago calling it a landslide victory. 0thers herald a moment ago calling it a landslide victory. others say they don't have a majority playing at the fact that as of the party has not been able to get a majority in the scottish government which it is designed to avoid being able to happen. the snp's call for the referent about saying they felt one seat short and therefore there is no mandate for it, that's a little bit shall we say it naive from the telegraph and voices in the conservative party. that is what nicholas sturgeon is going to a tentative. the issue she is going to haveisit tentative. the issue she is going to have is it west windsor is i was going to say no and it will strengthen their argument that even though the scottish green party is

pro—independence, that is not necessarily its core aim. it's a green party. its core aim is the environment and tackling climate change. those who argue that those votes for the scottish green party can be counted as a mandate for independence is going to be a battle that i think we will see play out over the next couple of weeks. as for the civil war in labour, keir starmer panicking and demoting angela rayner there and if you look in the backlash we have seen in the last couple of hours, a very wrong—headed move in his part to panic at this point and start infighting in the civil war. talking about a backlash _ infighting in the civil war. talking about a backlash against - infighting in the civil war. talking about a backlash against that - infighting in the civil war. talking i about a backlash against that moved by keir starmer and certainly on the media anyway, but do you think on the front page of the telegraph, labour civil war arrives is overstating what is happening in the party now? i overstating what is happening in the -a now? ~ ., �* , overstating what is happening in the .a now? ~' ., �*, ., party now? i think that's a

to try to build up this idea of the four nations of the uk working together to counteract any drive, any move for independence from nicola sturgeon but then she said she wants to put rebuilding after the pandemic first and front and centre as well.— centre as well. this is basically boris johnson _ centre as well. this is basically boris johnson trolling - centre as well. this is basically boris johnson trolling nicola i borisjohnson trolling nicola sturgeon in the snp i think. she has just won what she claims to be a landslide victory for her call for independence and the first thing he does with an amorous is say let's come to a summit on a uk wide covid—i9 recovery. i don't think it will do any good if what he is trying to do is take the wind out of the cells of the independence cause, especially because if you look at scotland, they tend to have a perception that nicola sturgeon is head of the pandemic better than the westminster government and the things that have gone badly are the result of civil government and the things that have gone well are the

result of good leadership from nicola sturgeon, even though the vaccine rely has obviously been a uk wide effort. there is been a sense that nicola sturgeon can take credit for that. so i'm not really sure how it saying come so we can all discuss how the uk moves forward together is really going to help did that perception. it's going to put the focus again on westminster versus the snp for supporters. you focus again on westminster versus the snp for supporters.— the snp for supporters. you can imaaine the snp for supporters. you can imagine boris— the snp for supporters. you can imagine boris johnson _ the snp for supporters. you can imagine boris johnson saying i the snp for supporters. you can i imagine boris johnson saying team imagine borisjohnson saying team uk. he likes his catchphrases, his slogans, so you can imagine we are going to hear this a lot more, don't you think? i going to hear this a lot more, don't ou think? ~ . ., , , , going to hear this a lot more, don't ou think? ~ . ., i, , ., you think? i think the analysis that boris johnson _ you think? i think the analysis that boris johnson had _ you think? i think the analysis that boris johnson had a _ you think? i think the analysis that boris johnson had a background i you think? i think the analysis that boris johnson had a background of| borisjohnson had a background of iris borisjohnson had a background of his and _ borisjohnson had a background of iris and nicola sturgeon had a good one, actually if you look at the results — one, actually if you look at the results in _ one, actually if you look at the results in each place, it's a lot more — results in each place, it's a lot more collocated than that. but i think— more collocated than that. but i think this — more collocated than that. but i think this whole idea of holding a summit— think this whole idea of holding a summit and talking about

it's basically portugal and you can go there and that's it. yes, the cost of the test is primitively expensive and the cost of the flights also to these places because there are so few of them, i think summer holidays particularly injune pretty much all the cards will happen injuly and august as more things opened up is another matter but they testing obviously is an issue and i mentioned it in the last emma and i will mention it again because he is really important that there is been an investigation of these private companies that are running these kind of tests for visitors coming into the uk and there have been terrible people not getting their tests and not get in there results in the system not working so if it cannot cope with the moment, it will be thoroughly overloaded by uk holiday makers in the summer. overloaded by uk holiday makers in the summer-— overloaded by uk holiday makers in the summer. ., ., the summer. then we have time to fit in the sunday — the summer. then we have time to fit in the sunday times _ the summer. then we have time to fit in the sunday times and _ the summer. then we have time to fit in the sunday times and the - the summer. then we have time to fit in the sunday times and the prime i in the sunday times and the prime minister stopping braintree to cities on one side of the front page and shaken keir starmer wield a knife on the other. on this brain
