foden's now preparing for the game of his life — city's first—ever champions league final against chelsea. not bad for a player who honed his skills here on the streets of nearby stockport, joining city aged just four. most of the time, it does feel like a dream. you know, i'd always laugh and joke with my mates about playing in the champions league final. i never thought that i would be playing in one, so yeah, it's all gone so quick, and i just want to enjoy the occasion as much as i can. i have been through the full academy, so i love this club and i've been here forever, so yeah, it's extra special for me, and i know what the fans feel at times. four years ago, the city star propelled england to glory in the under 17 world cup... commentator: foden! ..and many now hope he will prove just as pivotal for the senior side at the euros this summer. how realistic a chance do you think england have, given how many of their matches will be at home at wembley?

i think a big chance. there's a lot of players at the moment on top of their game, so i think we can definitely start pushing on to win things now. nurtured by city boss pep guardiola, foden has emerged as a key man for both club and country. so how does he handle the growing expectation? i don't think you can feel the pressure too much, because it will affect your game. the team can change at any time, it only takes a couple of bad games, and there's great players on the bench waiting to play, so you just have to keep focused and keep performing, and that's all you can do, really. foden�*s attacking flair has established him as a once—in—a—generation talent ahead of a landmark summer. the goal now — to deliver for both club and country. dan roan, bbc news. that's it. now on bbc one, time for the news where you are. have a very good night.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejohn rentoul, who's the chief political commentator from the independent, and lucy fisher, the deputy political editor from the telegraph. hello to you both. our chat in a moment, but first, a quick look through tomorrow's print pages. the metro writes that flights to belarus have been grounded by the uk and aircraft diverted from its airspace after it was accused of "state—sponsored piracy". the financial times adds that eu leaders are preparing to punish the minsk regime for intercepting a ryanair flight carrying a bela russian opposition journalist. the i says downing street is braced for new claims about borisjohnson�*s handling of pandemic — calling it the revenge of dominic cummings. the guardian writes that thousands of patients died after catching covid—i9 while in hospital

being treated for another medical problem. the telegraph reports that fully vaccinated people will be forced to self—isolate for ten days if they come into contact with someone infected with covid afterjune 21, the mirror leads on a plea from the footballer and campaigner marcus rashford, who's calling on mps not to let children go hungry. and the daily mail writes that british firms worth £36billion have been sold off to private equity in what it calls a high—risk "pandemic plundering" spree. that was a little flavour of those friends pages. john, lucy, let us begin. let mejust friends pages. john, lucy, let us begin. let me just check i've got the right order, we will start with the right order, we will start with the metro. lucy can i wonder if you could kick us off with that one, please stop it's been an

extraordinary state of events we have seen in the past 2a hours since orion airflight on have seen in the past 2a hours since orion air flight on road from athens was forced to land. that is apparently over the threat of a bomb scare on board the plane come about, actually, because the belarussian authorities wanted to seize the dissidentjournalist and his russian girlfriends, and since then, today, we heard that dominic raab and the house of commons speaking out very quickly for suggesting that the russian government is likely to have been involved in what he called outlandish activity. it really is something that we have seen in this particular episode and recently overheard the end of it. we know that uk along with the eu and the us are looking at possible further sanctions. are looking at possible further sanctions-_ are looking at possible further sanctione— are looking at possible further sanctions. ., sanctions. some of the linkage we have heard — sanctions. some of the linkage we have heard is _ sanctions. some of the linkage we have heard is astounding, - sanctions. some of the linkage we have heard is astounding, isn't - sanctions. some of the linkage we have heard is astounding, isn't a? | have heard is astounding, isn't a? state—sponsored piracy, terrorism,

was being placed on russia, or rather, focus is being turned on russia and president putin. that is right. dominic raab in the chamber today made clear his view that it chamber today made clear his view thatitis chamber today made clear his view that it is unlikely that the belarussian authorities would have taken such a bold and eccentric step in a way without what he described as the acquiescence at least on the russian government. so it does suggest that the uk either believes there was direct involvement from moscow, or at the very least, passive complicity in this, it speaks again, i think, we are going to see a lot of pressure building up on germany in the days ahead, you know, a lot of questions about germany's relationship with moscow, the acceptance of the gas pipeline from russia. we have heard angela merkel come out today and demand that the lukashenko regime releases him and his girlfriend. let's see

what happens in coming days, but i think that as you say, russia looks to be involved and people want to see more pressure placed on them to take some sort of responsibility here as well.— here as well. let's turn to the front page — here as well. let's turn to the front page of _ here as well. let's turn to the front page of the _ here as well. let's turn to the front page of the guardian. i here as well. let's turn to the i front page of the guardian. the first of the stories we are looking at here, 8700 people died after catching covid in hospital. , it's a horrifying story, this one. we knew— , it's a horrifying story, this one. we knew that this was happening, it had happened, we know that, you know, _ had happened, we know that, you know, some people went into hospital for other— know, some people went into hospital for other things and ended up catching — for other things and ended up catching coronavirus and dying. we didnt— catching coronavirus and dying. we didn't know — catching coronavirus and dying. we didn't know the full extent of its. you know. — didn't know the full extent of its. you know, this is nearly 9000 people. — you know, this is nearly 9000 people, possibly in underestimation, absolutely— people, possibly in underestimation, absolutely terrible story, and interesting comments from jeremy

in place or to a sufficient standard in place or to a sufficient standard in the uk before coronavirus hits, and i think that speaks to some of theissues and i think that speaks to some of the issues we have seen in this story, the suggestion that perhaps in hospitals there weren't sufficient single rooms available to compartmentalise coven patients, there were not potential enough ppe available for doctors and health staff to stop and potentially being vectors of the virus, also, that there wasn't the testing system in place to be absolutely crystal clear who had covid at each ward to separate those people out from the rest of the hospital population. so i certainly think that that is the kind of thing we are going to hear dominic cummings speak to, but it is likely to be a very wide—ranging attack. he started this tweet thread on this issue, it is currently at 60 posts. he is adding to it day by day and, really, he is turning his fire

on anyone, elected politicians, the prime minister, matt hancock as well as unelected officials like doctors, the former chief medical officer for england, whitehall departments. there doesn't seem to be many quarters of the government or the wider state so far that has escaped his criticism.— his criticism. john, a big smile on our his criticism. john, a big smile on your face. — his criticism. john, a big smile on your face. go _ his criticism. john, a big smile on your face, go on. _ his criticism. john, a big smile on your face, go on. i _ his criticism. john, a big smile on your face, go on. i didn't- his criticism. john, a big smile on your face, go on. i didn't realise. your face, go on. i didn't realise he was op _ your face, go on. i didn't realise he was up to — your face, go on. i didn't realise he was up to 60. _ your face, go on. i didn't realise he was up to 60. lucy _ your face, go on. i didn't realise he was up to 60. lucy has - your face, go on. i didn't realise - he was up to 60. lucy has obviously been _ he was up to 60. lucy has obviously been following dominic cummings twitter— been following dominic cummings twitter account were closely than i have, _ twitter account were closely than i have, and — twitter account were closely than i have, and i— twitter account were closely than i have, and i thought i was up—to—date. i was up to 56 at last count. _ up—to—date. i was up to 56 at last count. but— up—to—date. i was up to 56 at last count, but she is absolutely right that's— count, but she is absolutely right that's you — count, but she is absolutely right that's you know, dominic cummings, try that's you know, dominic cummings, by criticising — that's you know, dominic cummings, by criticising everybody is rather diluting — by criticising everybody is rather diluting the force of his attack on boris _ diluting the force of his attack on borisjohnson, if that is indeed what _ borisjohnson, if that is indeed what his— borisjohnson, if that is indeed what his ultimate target really is. i what his ultimate target really is. i don't _ what his ultimate target really is. i don't know how much of the story you have read, but in terms of the dates as to when people contracted

covid—i9 in hospital, do you have a date there, a timeline of what the figures are, i don't know if either of you have picked that up. it's been a measure since march 2020 that 32,000 people are thought to have caught covid in hospitals and around 30%, 8700 have died from contracting it in those conditions. will be interesting to see all those figures have tailed off, they are very active and they would've learned. they didn't know what they were dealing with at the beginning of the pandemic, so that will be interesting to look a little bit deeper into those figures. another strength from page of the guardian is the picture story, the picture is of sasha johnson. yes, the black lives matter activist who when — yes, the black lives matter activist who when i— yes, the black lives matter activist who when i first saw the headlines yesterday — who when i first saw the headlines yesterday about her being shocked, i assume _ yesterday about her being shocked, i assume that we were talking about un—american. i didn't realise that this un—american. ididn't realise that this was— un—american. i didn't realise that this was happening in south london.

clearly, there are lots of unanswered questions here that everyone will want to get to the bottom of as quickly as possible. let's turn to different page of the telegraph. interesting to see how this story is received tomorrow morning, just because you have had both doses doesn't mean we are out of the woods entirely, john. no, this is an interesting story. it is from. _ no, this is an interesting story. it is from, seems to be well sourced from _ is from, seems to be well sourced from government discussions about what can— from government discussions about what can be opened up on the 21st of june _ what can be opened up on the 21st of june. the _ what can be opened up on the 21st of june. the suggestion is that after the 21st _ june. the suggestion is that after the 21st of— june. the suggestion is that after the 21st ofjune, you will still have — the 21st ofjune, you will still have to — the 21st ofjune, you will still have to isolate if you come into contact — have to isolate if you come into contact with someone who has covid, even if— contact with someone who has covid, even if you _ contact with someone who has covid, even if you have both doses of the vaccine, _ even if you have both doses of the vaccine, which is me, for one. whereas, _ vaccine, which is me, for one. whereas, in— vaccine, which is me, for one. whereas, in america, if you have the double. _ whereas, in america, if you have the double. it— whereas, in america, if you have the double. if you — whereas, in america, if you have the double, if you are double vaccinated, you are allowed to hug people. _ vaccinated, you are allowed to hug people, you are allowed to do, more or less. _ people, you are allowed to do, more or less. what — people, you are allowed to do, more or less, what you like. i'm surprised, _ or less, what you like. i'm surprised, i mean, this seems to be overcautious — surprised, i mean, this seems to be overcautious to me, i must say.
