hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are polly mackenzie, chief executive of think tank demos, and and joe twyman, director of the polling organisation deltapoll. let's bring you up—to—date with the front pages. the guardian leads with a report on the officer who pleaded guilty to the murder of sarah everard. it writes he had been accused of a sex offence six years ago. no more self—isolation rules for nhs works, says the ft. for nhs workers, says the ft. it reports that ministers are reviewing the policy amid fears of a staffing crisis ahead of the next phase of rule relaxing — which could see the introduction of covid passports, according to the times, which leads with reports that bars, restaurants and clubs will require certificates for entry in a bid to drive up vaccinations. �*0ne game from glory�* — england's squad, which has �*won

picked up, without being reported, without going through a process. so, what happened? why was he still allowed out to? what answers does the metropolitan police have to all of these questions? i think of from trust for the police in this country generally, not least in london, the metropolitan police has to be entirely transparent and open with this process, and they have to apologise for the clear mistakes that have been made and also ensure that have been made and also ensure that they are not made again. because a situation like this cannot and should not be allowed to be repeated. and anything that can be done to prevent that is the right action. it done to prevent that is the right action. ., , , done to prevent that is the right action. . , done to prevent that is the right action. ., . action. it raises concerns about the rocess action. it raises concerns about the process that _ action. it raises concerns about the process that exists _ action. it raises concerns about the process that exists within - action. it raises concerns about the process that exists within the - process that exists within the force. �* , , ., ,

11:40 pm
substantially reduced. that means the track and straight app —— track and straight app is evolving and what we use it for. it�*s no longer airing on the side of caution. as the bbc reported, adjustments are being made more sensitive so they can be a greater granularity around whether people have a chance of being infected. this is important because in lots of different industries, but particularly in the nhs, you can�*t have a situation if we do see infections rises substantially, we can have a situation where half of a particular workforce has been told to stay—at—home. so, this appears to be a pragmatic approach to dealing with the evolving situation. there�*s no
11:41 pm
doubt it represents a gamble, so the question is will this be a step too far? and nobody knows the answer. it's far? and nobody knows the answer. it�*s not that the government is making up as it goes along, but it is waking vow waiting to see what happens, and i think we will all see it over the next weeks and months. another covid relate a story on the front of the times, passports for pubs, which raises the concern that if you�*re younger and still waiting for your vaccine, if you�*re younger and still waiting foryourvaccine, oryou if you�*re younger and still waiting for your vaccine, or you should be able to get your first one now, there are going to be places you can�*t get into until the second vaccination, may be up to eight weeks later. vaccination, may be up to eight weeks later-— vaccination, may be up to eight weeks later. ., ., , ., weeks later. the government has gone back and forth — weeks later. the government has gone back and forth on _ weeks later. the government has gone back and forth on whether— weeks later. the government has gone back and forth on whether we - weeks later. the government has gone back and forth on whether we should i back and forth on whether we should have passports or shouldn�*t. ultimately, a lot of it is outside their control, particularly when it comes to international travel. if the european union and other countries turns around and says you
11:42 pm
need to show some sort of vice donation if you�*re allowed in, there inevitably will be introduced —— of some sort of vaccination. but it looks like domestically, this may be something the government is now on board with, at least in principle. it's board with, at least in principle. it�*s in line with public opinion on this. around to third the people support this, 75% say they�*re happy with them personally demonstrating their vaccine status in order to be allowed access. when it comes to pubs, the situation is more obligated. the public is split down the middle. but i think when the government have been very careful to do is not introduce a two state system in this country, where one group of people who have been vaccination are able to access goods and services and events activities, while others who in some cases are of no fault of their own cannot be vaccinated or circumstances mean
11:43 pm
they can�*t use the passport, that can mean they�*re not able to do those things. i think the government will want to avoid that. again, it�*s a balancing act between wanting to open things up, but also maintaining safety. it will be interesting to see the exact position the government takes on this and. fella; government takes on this and. polly i come government takes on this and. polly i come back — government takes on this and. polly i come back to _ government takes on this and. polly i come back to you _ government takes on this and. polly i come back to you before i ask you to pick up on the covid. are you all right? do you need up laster and is the cat all right? the right? do you need up laster and is the cat all right?— the cat all right? the cat is fine. good. the cat all right? the cat is fine. good- covid _ the cat all right? the cat is fine. good. covid passports. - the cat all right? the cat is fine. good. covid passports. we - the cat all right? the cat is fine. good. covid passports. we havej the cat all right? the cat is fine. - good. covid passports. we have been on and off again _ good. covid passports. we have been on and off again with _ good. covid passports. we have been on and off again with this. _ good. covid passports. we have been on and off again with this. you - good. covid passports. we have been on and off again with this. you do - on and off again with this. you do -et on and off again with this. you do get the _ on and off again with this. you do get the sense, reading these bits in the papers, — get the sense, reading these bits in the papers, that the government is keen to _ the papers, that the government is keen to do — the papers, that the government is keen to do something with the vaccine — keen to do something with the vaccine passports. one of the key indicators — vaccine passports. one of the key indicators is this nervousness about the number— indicators is this nervousness about the number of young people coming forward _ the number of young people coming forward for— the number of young people coming forward for a vaccination. we've dropped — forward for a vaccination. we've dropped below 100,000 new vaccinations. at the peak of the

11:45 pm
wilson book published about ten years ago, where he argues part of england football over many generations as being... it belongs to us, and therefore, a dismissal of everything else to be a top team. what do you make of that? because the mirror is also playing hard on the mirror is also playing hard on the patriotism that it�*s for england. lots of people, it�*s kind of difficult balance between patriotism and enthusiasm for the game, and a kind of sense of its ours by right. it's kind of sense of its ours by right. it�*s not ours by right. if it was, it's not ours by right. if it was, we would _ it's not ours by right. if it was, we would have won in my lifetime or yours _ we would have won in my lifetime or yours i_ we would have won in my lifetime or yours idon't— we would have won in my lifetime or yours. i don't think any of us were around _ yours. i don't think any of us were around in — yours. i don't think any of us were around in be _ yours. i don't think any of us were around in 66. but i think there's probably— around in 66. but i think there's probably something about the arrogance and sometimes that might

undermine _ arrogance and sometimes that might undermine our ability to prepare and do the _ undermine our ability to prepare and do the incredibly difficult work with the — do the incredibly difficult work with the trade—offs because we had such a _ with the trade—offs because we had such a successful club football, trying _ such a successful club football, trying to — such a successful club football, trying to work out how much time to spend _ trying to work out how much time to spend with _ trying to work out how much time to spend with the national team, with the club, _ spend with the national team, with the club, is — spend with the national team, with the club, is complicated. we probably— the club, is complicated. we probably do have a bit of a sense of entitlement. a story going around, ministers _ entitlement. a story going around, ministers have been briefed not to say it's— ministers have been briefed not to say it's coming home. the line from the song _ say it's coming home. the line from the song it's— say it's coming home. the line from the song. it's apparently upsetting to other— the song. it's apparently upsetting to other countries to suggest that football— to other countries to suggest that football belongs to us in that way. all around — football belongs to us in that way. all around the world, there have been _ all around the world, there have been people doing things with balls and all— been people doing things with balls and all sorts of different ways. the football _ and all sorts of different ways. the football we play now was in england. the first _ football we play now was in england. the first under national game was between — the first under national game was between england and scotland. so, i think it's _ between england and scotland. so, i think it's reasonable for us to have an actual, — think it's reasonable for us to have an actual, factual statement about the nature — an actual, factual statement about the nature of the football, which did happen in the english —— in
11:47 pm
england — did happen in the english —— in england. but being arrogant is never good _ that brings me to the part of the i, because in the sense, this is so interesting. not only a new generation, unlike the players that many of us who remember from five or ten years ago when it was all about the stars, how much they are, where they live, the wives and girlfriends. it was pretty patronising anyway. didn�*t have to be an adjunct to the football. nonetheless, there is a picture of this team, and it�*s quite different. yes, i think that�*s absolutely right. you could say that previous teams have been characterised by less than some of their parts, and i would say, as many others, this england team that gareth southgate has forged is more than these parts,
11:48 pm
which makes a great difference to previous encounters and lots of different international tournaments. but i would say that also, this is a young team. just 25 years and three months on average. that makes them the second youngest team in the tournament, behind only turkey. i think that that means this generation have grown up with social media, with the internet, with coverage of football being so ubiquitous, and that is very different from players of previous eras. the other thing to say about this group is they are clearly more vocalin this group is they are clearly more vocal in some cases when it comes to political action and giving opinions of any kind. you would be hard—pressed to get a political view out of david beckham, but marcus rashford has been so famous and lauded quite rightly for the activities he has made. of course, the whole team taking the needs before each match in support of

11:51 pm
wimbledon travels far — broadcast to some 200 the canadian had so many opportunities. djokovic was really dominating, but the important points were his. this one settled the second set. ball ruled in. sha povalov shapovalov said he reacted accordingly. how can you call that? in truth, much of the frustration must have been aimed to have it himself. when djokovic prevailed, he released instinctive emotion. and so did his opponent. many more summers to come. wimbledon travels just some 200 global territories on tv. how many single champions would have come from italy? love, as they say around here. the man dashing across your screen is
11:52 pm
matteo berrettini. that server will be djokovic�*s to deal with on sunday. italians and finals, matteo won�*t go to wembley. they decided on saturday the women�*s title. to first time finalists. joe wilson, bbc news, wimbledon. and britain�*s andy lapthorne won his second wimbledon quad wheelchair doubles title, alongside his american partner david wagner — they won 6—1, 3—6, 6—4. it�*s lapthorne�*s i3th grand slam title overall and an 11th in doubles. and british duo harriet dart and joe salisbury are into the mixed—doubles final on sunday. mark cavendish sealed his spot in the history books today after equalling the record for stage wins at the tour de france. cavendish, a late replacement for this year�*s race, is now level with eddy mercx on 3a stage victories. drew savage has the story.
11:53 pm
he thought he�*d never ride another tour de france, but persistence paid off for mark cavendish, the man who never gave up. and the name he hadn�*t wanted to hear all we could finally be spoken. eddy merckx is one of cycling�*s all—time greats. it�*s 46 years since he won his 34th stage. cavendish was up there. although he�*s modest about it. the greatest male cyclist of all time, it�*s truly an honour. it�*s just a number. it doesn�*t put me on a level with eddy merckx. as cavendish says, he�*s a different kind of rider, but a legend nevertheless. when he won his first stage in 2008, the current race leader, looking good in yellow, was only nine years old. all eyes were on the man in green.
11:54 pm
asa as a child, he dreamed of winning a stage. and he followed that dream to the finish. but he delivered. he made his childhood dream come true. for a record equalling 34th time. drew savage, bbc news. less than two days to wait now until england take on italy in the final of euro 2020, their first major tournament final since 1966. the squad are continuing their preparations at st george�*s park, and captain harry kane spoke to our sports editor dan roan. as players, you think of that moment, you dream of that moment. obviously, we�*re all grounded enough to know we have a very tough game on our hands, but there�*s a good belief on this team. we are close and so to bounce back, it�*s been a great sign, a great mentality that we�*ve created.
11:55 pm
but of course, we all want to win. you play football to win. you dream of these moments as a kid. we have the opportunity now, so a great prospect for us. we just have to enjoy the moment, take it all in, but of course, perform. we want to be on the winning side. catalans dragons have maintained their lead at the top of rugby league�*s super league with another impressive win, this time over leeds rhinos. the french side were ten points behind at the break but came back strongly to win 26 points to 18. elsewhere, reigning champions st helens beat wakefield 30—14. britain�*s laura muir has ran the second fastest 800m by a british woman ever at the monaco diamond league tonight. the 28—year—old ran a time of one minute, 56.73 seconds — but is actually focusing solely on the 1,500m at the tokyo olympic games. fellow scot, jemma reekie, who will run in the 800m and 1,500m injapan,
11:56 pm
finished second behind muir. and finally, just take a look at this spectacular catch from india�*s harleen deol. she took this on the boundary to dismiss england�*s amyjones in the first t20 international at northampton. look at that there. the hosts went on to win the rain—affected match by duckworth—lewis stern method for the first win of the t20 series. and that is all the sport from us for now. hello there. it�*s looking unsettled for this weekend as well, but it�*s not going to be raining all the time everywhere. there will be some places staying dry, but the general theme this weekend is for sunny spells and for scattered showers to develop. again, these will be heavy and thundery and slow—moving as winds will be light. if you look at the pressure chart this afternoon, we�*ve got this weather front across the south, bringing an area of more persistent rain to southern counties.
11:57 pm
