and chief whip, and a new frontbench role for angela rayner. labour's tracy brabin is elected as the first mayor of west yorkshire. but she'll have to resign her westminster seat, triggering a by—election in batley and spen. scotland's first minister, nicola sturgeon, warns it would be "completely outrageous" for the westminster government to block a second independence referendum. hugs are to be officially 0k again in england, with an announcement due tomorrow on the next lockdown easing. the government is calling on the rail industry to fix disruption on some of britain's busiest rail lines after small cracks were found in some high—speed trains. hello, and welcome to our look ahead

to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are parliamentaryjournalist tony grew and journalist and broadcaster caroline frost. happy to see you both. tomorrow's front pages, starting with... "starmer�*s leadership in crisis" is the guardian's front page as the labour leader reshuffles his top team. the paper says a plan to demote angela rayner was derailed and led to hours of negotiations. same story on the front page of the i, which reports anneliese dodds is being replaced by rachel reeves as shadow chancellor and nick brown has been sacked as chief whip. but the former leaderjeremy corbyn warns that a reshuffle won't save the party. that's the main story for the online independent newspaper. some good news for labour on the front of the yorkshire post as tracy brabin celebrates becoming the first west yorkshire metro mayor. but her victory will mean a by—election in batley and spen. "darling hugs of may"

is the headline on tomorrow's metro, which reports the prime minister will tomorrow lay out the next relaxation of coronavirus restrictions for the 17th of may, which will include the return of hugs. the daily mail says borisjohnson will ride on the back of this week's election success, as well as that of the vaccine roll—out, as he announces that friends and families can once again hug one another. the express has the same lead. the paper says that the prime minister intends the next phase of unlocking to be cautious but "irreversible". so, let's begin. welcome back to both of you. thank you once again for taking the time to talk to us this evening. we start with the front page of the —ite paper. this time, it's only to you first of all is we are getting in the front pages the details of where the front pages the details of where the axe has swung, and it was a

tough one really because normally these three shuffles are supposed to feel a certain way and this one did not really feel that, did it? to feel a certain way and this one did not really feel that, did it?- not really feelthat, did it? to me it felt like panic _ not really feelthat, did it? to me it felt like panic and _ not really feelthat, did it? to me it felt like panic and really - not really feelthat, did it? to me it felt like panic and really poor. it felt like panic and really poor planning. who decides they want to reshuffle on a saturday night an hour before the papers go to print and then does not reshuffle all day sunday and then announces the reshuffle on sunday nightjust as monday's papers are going to print. i think he's made a really poor decisions here. i don't understand why anneliese dodds has been fired at shadow chancellor. she's only in the role for a year and i think he's a very creditable performer. you will need time to build a profile it and that's it i think sacking the chief whip is not quite a brave move from keir starmer and in terms of job creation, he has created a lot ofjobs job creation, he has created a lot of jobs are job creation, he has created a lot ofjobs are in the shadow cabinet that don't exist like shadow secretary of state for the future of work even though he has one for work and pensions. so it does not appear to me is likely what angela rayner

is going to be doing in her new role in this is the sort of reshuffle that leaves everyone happy. but i think anyone will sit there tonight and the party think it is a good reshuffle. d0 and the party think it is a good reshuffle. , ., ., and the party think it is a good reshuffle-— and the party think it is a good reshuffle. , ., ., ., reshuffle. do you agree with that assessment? _ reshuffle. do you agree with that assessment? i— reshuffle. do you agree with that assessment? i think _ reshuffle. do you agree with that assessment? i think so - reshuffle. do you agree with that assessment? i think so but - reshuffle. do you agree with that assessment? i think so but for i assessment? i think so but for different reasons _ assessment? i think so but for different reasons slightly. - assessment? i think so but for| different reasons slightly. tony assessment? i think so but for i different reasons slightly. tony is immersed — different reasons slightly. tony is immersed in these names and faces but for— immersed in these names and faces but for somebody from the outside, i think if_ but for somebody from the outside, i think if he's _ but for somebody from the outside, i think if he's going to go for the trouble — think if he's going to go for the trouble of— think if he's going to go for the trouble of a reshuffle i want faces i trouble of a reshuffle i want faces i have _ trouble of a reshuffle i want faces i have a _ trouble of a reshuffle i want faces i have a connection with without walking — i have a connection with without walking those core doors. where is jess phillips, where is david landy, where _ jess phillips, where is david landy, where is _ jess phillips, where is david landy, where is hilary benn, where isjohn mcdonneii — where is hilary benn, where isjohn mcdonnell. he is being attacked on all sides— mcdonnell. he is being attacked on all sides for being too centrist or too extremist and is not to be able too extremist and is not to be able to please _ too extremist and is not to be able to please anybody so i think really he should — to please anybody so i think really he should perhaps take a tip from boris _ he should perhaps take a tip from borisjohnson and put he should perhaps take a tip from boris johnson and put some personalities there that have some punch _ personalities there that have some punch in _ personalities there that have some punch in connection and residents people _ punch in connection and residents people beyond westminster. it is not seem _ people beyond westminster. it is not seem to _ people beyond westminster. it is not seem to be _ people beyond westminster. it is not seem to be happening either. will feel is— seem to be happening either. will feel is a _ seem to be happening either. will feel is a missed opportunity at this

which a former mp was a member that gets to decide the timing of the violation so it does not have to be immediately. that was in before the new chief whip to consider. let’s new chief whip to consider. let's move on and _ new chief whip to consider. let's move on and took— new chief whip to consider. let's move on and took out _ new chief whip to consider. let's move on and took out the - new chief whip to consider. let's move on and took out the daily mirror at front page with the darling hugs of may. so that somewhere else i believe in the metro at the same headline. not securely originalfor metro at the same headline. not securely original for both of them. good news really for both as it has been a long time coming for a lot of people especially those living on their own. human contact is so important. their own. human contact is so important-— their own. human contact is so important. yes, i think it a very ositive important. yes, i think it a very positive message _ important. yes, i think it a very positive message will _ important. yes, i think it a very positive message will be - important. yes, i think it a very positive message will be very . positive message will be very welcome byjust everybody. but i think— welcome byjust everybody. but i think the — welcome byjust everybody. but i think the lesson that is quite revealing here is that all last year we saw _ revealing here is that all last year we saw promises being made by the government in terms of holidays and in terms _ government in terms of holidays and in terms of— government in terms of holidays and in terms of education and in terms of christmas and these premises ended _ of christmas and these premises ended up— of christmas and these premises ended up being you turned it leading to huge _ ended up being you turned it leading to huge does a woman all around and rhubarb _ to huge does a woman all around and rhubarb is _ to huge does a woman all around and

there is a bit of a way to go but i certainly feel that we are on course for a summer of fun.— certainly feel that we are on course for a summer of fun. let's move onto the daily telegraph _ for a summer of fun. let's move onto the daily telegraph in _ for a summer of fun. let's move onto the daily telegraph in the _ for a summer of fun. let's move onto the daily telegraph in the page - the daily telegraph in the page showing the story about lateral flow tests in the headline reading three nhs lateral flow tests may be invalid for holidays. what is this about? film invalid for holidays. what is this about? , ., ., ,, .,, invalid for holidays. what is this about? , ,, ., ., about? oh my goodness, i was afraid he would ask — about? oh my goodness, i was afraid he would ask me _ about? oh my goodness, i was afraid he would ask me but _ about? oh my goodness, i was afraid he would ask me but i _ about? oh my goodness, i was afraid he would ask me but i have _ about? oh my goodness, i was afraid he would ask me but i have asked i he would ask me but i have asked tony— he would ask me but i have asked tony to _ he would ask me but i have asked tony to his— he would ask me but i have asked tony to his lips to me in the break because _ tony to his lips to me in the break because it — tony to his lips to me in the break because it is — tony to his lips to me in the break because it is very confusing but i think— because it is very confusing but i think that — because it is very confusing but i think that effectively the lateral flow tests which are free won't be sufficiently verifiable and perhaps the problems and the challenges of administering them so this may not reach _ administering them so this may not reach a _ administering them so this may not reach a threshold that will be agreed — reach a threshold that will be agreed to be sufficient to let people — agreed to be sufficient to let people go that way about it. so instead — people go that way about it. so instead the prospect of these 12 rin- instead the prospect of these 12 ring this — instead the prospect of these 12 ring this will involve more expensive pcr tests which i can tell you from _ expensive pcr tests which i can tell you from experience is a big old ioad _ you from experience is a big old load of— you from experience is a big old load of hassle and may dissuade people _ load of hassle and may dissuade people and are excessive as well. evil people and are excessive as well. evii may — people and are excessive as well. evil may not go over this year which

to try to bring in the cost of those tests and by the way the 12 countries on the green list are pretty sparse and if you want to spend your holidays in the falkland islands. let's wait and see what more popular destinations may open up more popular destinations may open up in the months ahead.— up in the months ahead. anywhere seems good _ up in the months ahead. anywhere seems good these _ up in the months ahead. anywhere seems good these days, _ up in the months ahead. anywhere seems good these days, tony. i up in the months ahead. anywhere seems good these days, tony. not up in the months ahead. anywhere i seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some — seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some do _ seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some do which _ seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some do which is _ seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some do which is one _ seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some do which is one of- seems good these days, tony. not too sure if some do which is one of the i sure if some do which is one of the trial countries. i’m sure if some do which is one of the trial countries.— trial countries. i'm sure it's wonderful— trial countries. i'm sure it's wonderful for _ trial countries. i'm sure it's wonderful for anyone - trial countries. i'm sure it's wonderful for anyone who i trial countries. i'm sure it's| wonderful for anyone who is trial countries. i'm sure it's _ wonderful for anyone who is watching from their income is the best place in the world for holiday. let's go to the times now with borisjohnson relaxing rules on building new homes. this is a planning bill said to be included in the queen's speech and what it is a debt relief is getting more homeownership and ball small cities and towns in making planning applications easier. it is a good thing or not? in planning applications easier. it is a good thing or not?— planning applications easier. it is a good thing or not? in defence if it nets a good thing or not? in defence if it gets more _ a good thing or not? in defence if it gets more homes _ a good thing or not? in defence if it gets more homes built - a good thing or not? in defence if it gets more homes built than i it gets more homes built than evidently it is a good thing. what i find more eye—catching to the queen's speech is on tuesday at the

state opening of parliament and the government was to bring forward some of its legislative hands to the next session of parliament. this bill was even more radical than may have given the impression just in the headline. there is talk and there about running a pilot programme will beget 20% off a cost of homes which is one of the conservatives most popular policies which was written about which effectively if you rented your castle house you could buy and buy at a discount. what are the things they are doing here as they are giving very much those constituencies that used to be labour and are becoming conservative and that's why there is a reference thereto towns as opposed to cities. so if the proposal and we'll see how it goes and we'll see what they actually present to parliament by the queen's speech on tuesday but i listen to governments to go out they will rebuild houses for 20 years now and none of them seem to specifically succeed in that so i think intended try to kick—start thatis think intended try to kick—start that is welcome. think intended try to kick-start that is welcome.— think intended try to kick-start that is welcome. let's evolve very briefly because _ that is welcome. let's evolve very

starring bob hoskins and the ill—fated street fighter, which teamed jean—claude van damme with kylie minogue for reasons no one could fully understand. by comparison with these stinkers, the original mortal kombat movie, directed by paul ws anderson and starring christopher lambert, wasn't bad. not great, but not terrible either. the same could not be said of the sequel annihilation, a flop which effectively killed the live—action franchise. first learned about this seven years ago on a mission in brazil to capture a wanted fugitive. now, more than two decades later, we have a new mortal kombat movie, produced by saw and insidious co—creatorjames wan and co—written by greg russo, a devotee of the games who promised to stay true to the existing mythology and to give fellow fans a faithful screen adaptation. get over here! now, that's all well and good,

but the film still needs to work for audiences unfamiliar with the games, so we get lewis tan as new character cole young, a cage fighter with a mysterious birthmark who finds himself drawn into a world that conveniently has to be explained to him en route.
