tv The Papers BBC News June 13, 2021 10:30pm-11:01pm BST
10:32 pm
hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me is the broadcaster and psychotherapist, lucy beresford, and joe twyman, director of the polling organisation, deltapoll. good evening to you both, thanks for staying up so late. we appreciate it, i promise you, we do. let's look at some of the front pages. the telegraph leads on the potential delays to reopening england, saying borisjohnson will ask the public tomorrow to accept "one last heave" to freedom. the guardian also focuses on delays to easing restrictions, saying the postponement could keep thousands out of hospital, as it would allow an extra nine million people to be vaccinated. the financial times leads with president biden urging his fellow leaders at the g7 to use their "financial muscle" to counter china's
10:33 pm
rising global influence. the i features so—called "vaccine libraries", saying the uk will be able to alter vaccines within weeks to react to highly transmissable variants. "show some respect" — that's the metro's headline, as the foreign secretary, dominic raab, calls alleged comments from france's president macron "offensive" at the end of the g7 summit in the row over the northern irish border. and the independent features a picture of the footballer raheem sterling celebrating, after scoring the winning goal for england in their match against croatia in the euros. it's a shame he didn't get a winning goalfor our it's a shame he didn't get a winning goal for our city it's a shame he didn't get a winning goalfor our city in the it's a shame he didn't get a winning goal for our city in the european cup final, but there you go, and says a city fan. lucy, let's start with the telegraph, "one last heave
10:34 pm
ho to freedom,". i say fact, we don't know 100%, but it's highly likely, isn't it, according to government sources that we will get a delay to the full unlocking of england tomorrow? that certainly were a number— england tomorrow? that certainly were a number of— england tomorrow? that certainly were a number of the _ england tomorrow? that certainly were a number of the papers - england tomorrow? that certainly were a number of the papers are l were a number of the papers are leading with tonight. they've been training for a couple days, but the problem is we don't know for sure, and many people will be very disappointed by this because we've been focusing on 21 june as not only a really keen date, but something we feel we've earned because we've been having these restrictions for so long, but also we have this phenomenal vaccine programme. and there has to be a point at which we start to think, "well, when are these vaccines," you know, 30 million people in the uk have had their second dose, over 41 million
10:35 pm
have other first dose — if that's going to carry on, when will he reap the benefits of that? and i think people will be disappointed tomorrow. also, they've all questions of the strategy because what we really need to know is, what is this data? why are you choosing make this decision now? and there are so many different factions there, there are tory backbenchers who will be disappointed, there are hundreds of thousands of people in the hospitality industry, the travel industries who will be incredibly disappointed by this. yet there does not seem to be a concrete link yet between what the figures of the actual cases and sadly some of the deaths rising, and the actual impact of the vaccines. and unless they get that communication strategy right, they run the risk of losing the goodwill of the nation. jae. they run the risk of losing the goodwill of the nation. joe, would ou auree goodwill of the nation. joe, would you agree with — goodwill of the nation. joe, would you agree with that? _ goodwill of the nation. joe, would you agree with that? while -
10:36 pm
goodwill of the nation. joe, would you agree with that? while we've| goodwill of the nation. joe, would - you agree with that? while we've had a phenomenal vaccine programme, as lucy points out, the fact is i think it's something like 2 million over 50s still haven't had their second dose of the vaccine. it's been good, but it hasn't been good enough, according to the prime minister potentially tomorrow.— according to the prime minister potentially tomorrow. that's right. i a . ree potentially tomorrow. that's right. i agree with _ potentially tomorrow. that's right. i agree with what _ potentially tomorrow. that's right. i agree with what lucy _ potentially tomorrow. that's right. i agree with what lucy says - potentially tomorrow. that's right. i agree with what lucy says when l potentially tomorrow. that's right. i i agree with what lucy says when she says thereil— i agree with what lucy says when she says there'll be lots of people who are disappointed. at the polling on this has_ are disappointed. at the polling on this has been consistent, and that has been — this has been consistent, and that has been the case throughout the pandemic— it shows is that, generally— pandemic— it shows is that, generally speaking, the public are on the _ generally speaking, the public are on the side of caution, they don't wish _ on the side of caution, they don't wish to— on the side of caution, they don't wish to move too fast with releasing iockdowne — wish to move too fast with releasing lockdowns. and when it comes to this specific— lockdowns. and when it comes to this specific extension, they are actually— specific extension, they are actually in support of it. now that doesn't _ actually in support of it. now that doesn't mean everybody supports it, you have _ doesn't mean everybody supports it, you have a _ doesn't mean everybody supports it, you have a sizeable minority of people — you have a sizeable minority of people who are against it. but on balance, — people who are against it. but on balance, it — people who are against it. but on balance, it is something that proves popular— balance, it is something that proves popular with the public who are hesitani— popular with the public who are hesitant about this, particularly if the government sells it along the
10:37 pm
lines _ the government sells it along the lines of. — the government sells it along the lines of, "this four weeks will allow— lines of, "this four weeks will allow every over 50 to have their second _ allow every over 50 to have their second vaccination." once that's out of the _ second vaccination." once that's out of the way, — second vaccination." once that's out of the way, the risks of at least serious — of the way, the risks of at least serious publications are massively reduced~ — serious publications are massively reduced. so one would assume that hospital— reduced. so one would assume that hospital rates and death rates would not rise _ hospital rates and death rates would not rise as _ hospital rates and death rates would not rise as much. but it is a very difficult — not rise as much. but it is a very difficult sell. in recent weeks, the number— difficult sell. in recent weeks, the number of— difficult sell. in recent weeks, the number of people who think the government is doing the right thing on the _ government is doing the right thing on the virus has fallen back. now it is still— on the virus has fallen back. now it is still well — on the virus has fallen back. now it is still well ahead of the people who think they're doing the wrong thing. _ who think they're doing the wrong thing. but — who think they're doing the wrong thing, but that's a figure very collated — thing, but that's a figure very collated very closely with support for the _ collated very closely with support for the government generally and the prime _ for the government generally and the prime minister specifically. i'm sure _ prime minister specifically. i'm sure downing street will be keeping a very— sure downing street will be keeping a very close eye on those figures to essentially— a very close eye on those figures to essentially see if they can sell this extension to the british people. _ this extension to the british people, orwhether this extension to the british people, or whether it will be questioned. part of the problem they face is _ questioned. part of the problem they face is this— questioned. part of the problem they face is this huge regional variation in terms _ face is this huge regional variation in terms of— face is this huge regional variation in terms of the kinds of figures that lucy— in terms of the kinds of figures that lucy talks about. if you look at east _ that lucy talks about. if you look at east darwin, the figure there is
10:38 pm
1208 infections for every 100,000 people _ 1208 infections for every 100,000 people. the figure for i live in north— people. the figure for i live in north london, and zone three by no means— north london, and zone three by no means the _ north london, and zone three by no means the countryside, that figure is five _ means the countryside, that figure is five and — means the countryside, that figure is five. and it's true for the whole area _ is five. and it's true for the whole area that— is five. and it's true for the whole area. that kind of variation means that obviously the risks are different. it is a national lockdown necessarily going? we will see. interesting, let's go to the front page of the guardian. for the scientists and nhs, that is the key, isn't it? the effect is the delta variant is 60% more infectious than the original coronavirus certainly then the alpha variant, the kent variant. and the whole point of restrictions and locking down was to
10:39 pm
ease pressure on the nhs? the messaging _ ease pressure on the nhs? the messaging last _ ease pressure on the nhs? tue: messaging last year ease pressure on the nhs? tte: messaging last year was ease pressure on the nhs? t"te: messaging last year was about protecting the nhs to save lives. but what they realised in the intervening 12 months was that they might�*ve protected the nhs, but they didn't necessarily save lives because there were many other people whose cancer diagnoses got missed whose cancer diagnoses got missed who weren't able to go to operations. my work in the field of mental health — many people suffered hugely last year because everything else was put on hold so that we could protect the nhs with regards to covid. so again, i don't know how this messaging will actually land, and i think thatjoe highlights an interesting point about the regional differences, that actually i think a lot of other people have begun to alter their behaviour irrespective of what the government says, and will probably do so irrespective of what boris johnson will probably do so irrespective of what borisjohnson says tomorrow. we are assessing our own risk. we are no longerjust are assessing our own risk. we are no longer just actually taking as gospel everything the government says, this is the danger zone. if
10:40 pm
they are coming up with a rerun of that protect the hospital mantra, i think unfortunately a lot of people will look at what happened in the last 15 months and say, "well, look where that got us home" with people who weren't suffering from covid. we are in such a fortunate position where we have phenomenal genomic sequencing that we know so much more about these new variants. we know so much more about where they are, we are much more nuanced in our picture across the country — and yet the response from the government is frankly scary because they are only treating the nation as one whole. joe, that seems to be aware of the debate is heading at the moment, isn't it? if we've reached this stage with this amazing vaccine roll—out, we are still in the position potentially because of variance and at the moment it's the delta variant, of having to delay fully unlocking england, then we've got to have a change in the debate.
10:41 pm
we've got to now discuss how we live with this virus — and that's certainly what's happening in parts of southeast asia, like singapore, eurasia, australia, new zealand further east. they were very aggressive in their original lockdown, had very few deaths — but as a result, their economies are not doing that great, so they are actually having the debate on the other side of the coin, if that makes sense, of having to now confront the likelihood, the reality that they've got to live with this virus and we've got to have that conversation here too.— virus and we've got to have that conversation here too. yeah, we've not to conversation here too. yeah, we've got to have — conversation here too. yeah, we've got to have that — conversation here too. yeah, we've got to have that conversation, - conversation here too. yeah, we'vej got to have that conversation, what the applications will be, and what the applications will be, and what the impact of the regional differences will be. but i think it's worth _ differences will be. but i think it's worth remembering, because we aren't— it's worth remembering, because we aren't talking about locking down more _ aren't talking about locking down more or— aren't talking about locking down more or a — aren't talking about locking down more or a step backwards, we're simply— more or a step backwards, we're simply talking about not taking a step forwards. so we will still be able step forwards. so we will still be ahie to— step forwards. so we will still be ahie to go— step forwards. so we will still be able to go out to dinner next week and nonessential shops will remain
10:42 pm
open _ and nonessential shops will remain open it's_ and nonessential shops will remain open. it'sjust the last stage, the compiete — open. it'sjust the last stage, the complete relaxation of social distancing rules that's waiting to be introduced. so it may be that actually, — be introduced. so it may be that actually, people will realise that actually, — actually, people will realise that actually, they can wait for weeks. we don't — actually, they can wait for weeks. we don't know, we will have to see. but i _ we don't know, we will have to see. but i know _ we don't know, we will have to see. but i know the government will really _ but i know the government will really want to avoid any kind of regional— really want to avoid any kind of regional controls if they can, because _ regional controls if they can, because they are very difficult to police _ because they are very difficult to police to — because they are very difficult to police, to sayjust one area of people — police, to sayjust one area of people can do this and those others can't _ people can do this and those others can't what— people can do this and those others can't. what they want to avoid is pictures— can't. what they want to avoid is pictures of— can't. what they want to avoid is pictures of freedom day on the front pa-e pictures of freedom day on the front page of— pictures of freedom day on the front page of the newspapers as people in london _ page of the newspapers as people in london and the southeast go out and have fun _ london and the southeast go out and have fun on _ london and the southeast go out and have fun on beaches and pubs, while in northern— have fun on beaches and pubs, while in northern areas are locked down because _ in northern areas are locked down because their rates of infection are much _ because their rates of infection are much higher. that's the pr disaster the government wants to avoid. i don't _ the government wants to avoid. i don't see — the government wants to avoid. i don't see many other options for at least _ don't see many other options for at least the _ don't see many other options for at least the next four weeks. the key question— least the next four weeks. the key question is, — least the next four weeks. the key question is, at the end of that for weeks. _ question is, at the end of that for weeks, having said we're just going
10:43 pm
to have _ weeks, having said we're just going to have one — weeks, having said we're just going to have one last push for the line, will it— to have one last push for the line, will it actually be the case that changes, — will it actually be the case that changes, and maybe we make that step forward? _ changes, and maybe we make that step forward? that remains to be seen. and other— forward? that remains to be seen. and other pr disaster would potentially be saying,", 0k, we have to lockdown on 21 june, then lockdown a month later." to lockdown on 21 june, then lockdown a month later." yes, but unfortunately. _ lockdown a month later." yes, but unfortunately, there _ lockdown a month later." yes, but unfortunately, there are _ lockdown a month later." yes, but unfortunately, there are many - lockdown a month later." yes, but unfortunately, there are many of l lockdown a month later." yes, but. unfortunately, there are many of us who are not confident about trusting the idea that if there is a four week delay, then what else will come out of the woodwork in the next four weeks? if we've had one delta variant which has completely freaked everyone out, what's to say there won't be another exelon — in four weeks' time we are opening ourselves up weeks' time we are opening ourselves up to another variant. if we delay the actual opening, we will possibly
10:44 pm
reopen fully in september — all the schools will go back, there could be another spike and we could be laying ourselves in for another tough winter. we need to start learning how to live with this virus and the variant and mutations — and heavens, we've got such a phenomenal vaccine programme that it seems incredibly unfair to make everybody wait a little bit longer because there are some people out there who haven't yet got round to having their vaccine. ., ~' yet got round to having their vaccine. ., ~ ., , ., , vaccine. you knew it was absolute, don't rive vaccine. you knew it was absolute, don't give me _ vaccine. you knew it was absolute, don't give me that, _ vaccine. you knew it was absolute, don't give me that, lucy. - vaccine. you knew it was absolute, don't give me that, lucy. exactly, l don't give me that, lucy. exactly, the point is we don't need to get to 0mega, that's what we really, really don't want —— you knew it was exelon. let's go to the metro, moving on from that, "show some respect," diplomatic war of words with france and g7 summit. apparently macron suggested that northern ireland was not part of the

10:48 pm
things like medicines where you could actually create a trusted trade status for many of these goods. there are definitely ways about it —— around it, but it seems for many people, the eu have highlighted once again some of their intransigence which may or may not have been the reason why many people voted to leave. but have been the reason why many people voted to leave-— voted to leave. but why did boris johnson voted to leave. but why did boris johnson sign _ voted to leave. but why did boris johnson sign up _ voted to leave. but why did boris johnson sign up to _ voted to leave. but why did boris johnson sign up to this _ voted to leave. but why did boris johnson sign up to this in - voted to leave. but why did boris johnson sign up to this in the - voted to leave. but why did boris| johnson sign up to this in the first johnson sign up to this in the first place if we've now got these problems that frankly could have been pointed out?— problems that frankly could have been pointed out? maybe it's like bu in: a been pointed out? maybe it's like buying a house — been pointed out? maybe it's like buying a house and _ been pointed out? maybe it's like buying a house and discovering i been pointed out? maybe it's like i buying a house and discovering that actually, everything in it that was sold to you wasn't actually as described is on the details. therefore afterwards, you are entitled to sort of say, "well, there are the things that don't work." and i think this is the kind of lived experience of actually running with the deal as it now stands with the protocol. if one side says this is no longer workable
10:49 pm
for them, there ought to be some scope for both parties to get together to try to work out how it could be made better, rather than one side actually saying, "no, we won't discuss it," and certainly to come up with some really petty phrases around the fact that maybe macron did say that northern ireland wasn't part of the united kingdom. it comes across as just wanting to be difficult for the sake of it, and it's very clear that the uk government is in no mood to compromise. government is in no mood to compromise-— government is in no mood to compromise. government is in no mood to comromise. ., compromise. joe, it also looks as if the eu is in — compromise. joe, it also looks as if the eu is in no _ compromise. joe, it also looks as if the eu is in no mood _ compromise. joe, it also looks as if the eu is in no mood to _ compromise. joe, it also looks as if| the eu is in no mood to compromise in which case. what happens next? that's the difficult question, we don't _ that's the difficult question, we don't know. there is no obvious way out of _ don't know. there is no obvious way out of it _ don't know. there is no obvious way out of it lucy— don't know. there is no obvious way out of it. lucy would argue that it's like — out of it. lucy would argue that it's like buying a house — ithink some _ it's like buying a house — ithink some would argue it's closer to the government selling a house after a divorce _ government selling a house after a divorce, being desperate to prove that they— divorce, being desperate to prove that they told it —— they sold it. they— that they told it —— they sold it. they knew _ that they told it —— they sold it. they knew people buying it were

10:51 pm
the g7 summit and, given that climate change is both something he and joe biden are very passionate about, it was felt that this would probably be the highlight of the g7 summit. but people like extinction rebellion and others have actually criticised the communique — and i must admit i was surprised to see how little of china was mentioned, because arguably the biggest polluter on the planet as china, so if you're going to band together to try to do something about climate change, you'll probably have to band together to have a talk with china. they didn't really seem to come out in the communique. whether something will happen more in brussels tomorrow, and obviously everyone is decamping from cornwall, they'll meet up again in brussels for a slightly different summit. but it's a shame that perhaps more was not actually signalled in the communique for the things that they would've liked to have done. after all, they
