hello and welcome to our last look to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are geraldine scott, who is a political correspondent at the press association, and the broadcaster and journalist james lewer. welcome back to both of them. welcome back to both of them. welcome back to you, or indeed welcome if you have just welcome back to you, or indeed welcome if you havejustjoined us. if you have, let me bring you up to date with what the front pages or sayings so far this evening. the times has "children set to be jabbed from early next week", despite a refusal byjcvi independent scientific advisers to recommend vaccinations for 12—15—year—olds. ministers insist the vaccination programme will go ahead, says the telegraph, despite scientific advisers saying benefits are "too small". the i says the vaccines watchdog is under fire for passing the buck to chief medical officers like chris whitty, who is now under pressure to push through jabs for 12—15—year—olds. the ft reports that apple is delaying its plans for a child sexual abuse detection code,
11:32 pm
after criticism from privacy campaigners. jeremy kyle tells the sun that he was "scapegoated" over the suspected suicide of steve dymond — the participant on his daytime tv show — and that axing the programme left him on anxiety pills. the independent�*s main picture feature is of the film spencer, which has premiered in venice and — the paper says — will infuriate traditionalists. "no respect!" is the headline in the express, amid buckingham palace fury as the queen's funeral plans are leaked. the mirror sums up its feeling about the royal funeral leak with the headline "how could they?" it isa it is a question i should be asking my guests, geraldine and james, but, james, do you want to because our first of all of the front of the guardian?—
11:33 pm
first of all of the front of the guardian? ~ , , , ., , , guardian? absolutely. obviously it looks like the _ guardian? absolutely. obviously it looks like the government - guardian? absolutely. obviously it looks like the government are - guardian? absolutely. obviously it. looks like the government are going to go ahead and vaccinate children across the country, and honestly it follows suit with the rest of europe as well on this one, in terms of the way this has been done. they have done it across many countries in europe and across ireland as well, and the government looking to push ahead with it. there is an argument, thejcbi ahead with it. there is an argument, thejcb i have made that argument today, that the bennett's vaccines are not probably worth it for children, because they are not really affected by the virus —— the jcvi. it depends which is sort of report you look at in which scientists you hear from. report you look at in which scientists you hearfrom. clearly there is an argument that vaccines, their side effects with this as well, obviously very small chances, and i think on the report that was just on, they were talking but her inflammation — there is a chance thatis inflammation — there is a chance that is a side effect of the vaccine, so there's an argument of,
11:34 pm
do we really to give vaccines to children of 12—15? because ultimately they are not really affected by the virus anyway. obviously on the flip side of that, there is a lot of children going back to school and there's good be rise in infections and arguably having these vaccines is going to reduce the amount of time essentially students may be out of the classroom of the test positive and they have to quarantine, so there are so many different factors, and whoever you ask, some will say it is a good idea and others will not, so it depends which side you stand on, scientists certainly are not clear on this at all postevent the government blog is the make an announcement next week on it and it comes down to the chief medical officers, as these reports are saying, and it looks like chris whitty is going to give the green light as well as the other chief medical officers in the other nations as well —— the government is going to make an announcement. the
11:35 pm
times sa s going to make an announcement. the times says the chief medical officer in scotland is also said to be in favour. and again it is this question of schools which is weighing uppermost on ministers minds, it seems. {iii weighing uppermost on ministers minds, it seems.— weighing uppermost on ministers minds, it seems. of course, andy ch is minds, it seems. of course, andy jcvi is an independent _ minds, it seems. of course, andy jcvi is an independent body - minds, it seems. of course, andy jcvi is an independent body which advises. _ jcvi is an independent body which advises, and that ministers and the chief_ advises, and that ministers and the chief medical officers make the decisions, so that is the key distinction. i think what is key to recognise — distinction. i think what is key to recognise also is the jcvi decision is made _ recognise also is the jcvi decision is made purely on health grounds, not on _ is made purely on health grounds, not on the — is made purely on health grounds, not on the more holistic approach, and, _ not on the more holistic approach, and. yes, — not on the more holistic approach, and. yes, we — not on the more holistic approach, and, yes, we are correct in saying that children _ and, yes, we are correct in saying that children are not as impacted by coronavirus. — that children are not as impacted by coronavirus, they don't get as ill as adults — coronavirus, they don't get as ill as adults do, but of course they can carry— as adults do, but of course they can carry it. _ as adults do, but of course they can carry it. so — as adults do, but of course they can carry it, so there is the wider impact — carry it, so there is the wider impact on _ carry it, so there is the wider impact on teachers and families, and there's— impact on teachers and families, and there's potentially more vulnerable people _ there's potentially more vulnerable people. we know the government has plans in_ people. we know the government has plans in place to roll—out vaccines in schools — plans in place to roll—out vaccines in schools and colleges, so it seems like it— in schools and colleges, so it seems like it will— in schools and colleges, so it seems like it will be a foregone conclusion we will see these 12 to

11:38 pm
and it needs to be carefully apt out and it needs to be carefully apt out and done in a really responsible weight, and i think it is definitely why apple are taking the time with this, because they have to get their balance right absolutely on this one. parents, especially the maybe have photos of their children on their phones, they will be a bit, well, what if i am targeted by this? but at the same time, as geraldine has alluded to as well, we are concerned about child sexual abuse, this will be a way of tackling it, so balancing act is the key phrase on this one, and time will tell, but let'sjust hope on this one, and time will tell, but let's just hope that it is not ticked on the road too far, the can is not kicks down the road too far, because it is good that this sort of technology is being utilised for sure. , . , technology is being utilised for sure. , ., , ., technology is being utilised for sure. �* ., , ., ., sure. james, the front of the telegraph — sure. james, the front of the telegraph is _ sure. james, the front of the telegraph is reporting - sure. james, the front of the telegraph is reporting a - sure. james, the front of the telegraph is reporting a planj sure. james, the front of the i telegraph is reporting a plan to boost social care if national insurance is the tool used by the
11:39 pm
government, could cost firms money. the facts with this is obviously conservatives in 2019, in their manifesto pledge, said they would not raise national insurance to put the bill for social care, so that is one the elements of this as well, but the other part of this is the fact that we need to find money from somewhere to pay for this and if our parents and grandparents are going to be comfortable certainly speaking for my parents and grandparents, i want to make sure they have good care. i don't mind paying a little bit more to make sure that that happens and it is good to be... we all left to do with —— have to do with us of it is not a problem, it is a thing we are all involved in. i think it is going to come from somewhere, i think we touched in this last hour about the fact he could obviously affect more people, younger people especially, with the national insurance side of this, in
11:40 pm
terms of it costing younger people more, and we spoke about the fact that young people have been through a lot with the virus of a paying for things and having things taken from their lives, over the last 18 months or so, so this could be another stress factor on them and i think it will affect people in certain areas more than others, depending on what you earn, where you live, so there is a lot for the government to consider on this for sure and it is not going to make everyone happy! i think one of you said during the last hour, one of these policies that makes nobody, nobody feels they are pleased about it. geraldine, this dilemma is quite acute about how to fund it. we had all the talk about 20 years ago, or not quite 20 years ago, the early part of the -- zist —— 21st century, where politicians were saying, maybe we could collide back after people have died. there was an accusation that the death

11:44 pm
steady in our people's tickets are issued to them electronically, or most of the stadium is covered by cctv of one kind or another, they are all cedar stadiums these days, so the idea people can go roaming around not be possible to identify because they have slipped away is pretty unlikely, and yet so rare that anyone! it's charged with anything, still less banned from attending football matches, or so thatis attending football matches, or so that is my perception as a layman, james. . .. that is my perception as a layman, james. ., .. ., ., “ that is my perception as a layman, james. . ,, ., ., , james. yeah, i think looking at last niaht, and james. yeah, i think looking at last night. and i — james. yeah, i think looking at last night. and i saw — james. yeah, i think looking at last night, and i saw and _ james. yeah, i think looking at last night, and i saw and i _ james. yeah, i think looking at last night, and i saw and i heard the - night, and i saw and i heard the match yesterday, and it was not a small minority. one of the shooting lanes i heard this morning was the football coach for hungary said it was a small minority of the fans doing it, and it is terrible and we despise it, but the issue was it was a lie. it was before the name, when they took the knee, it was considerably loud, and of course we saw when raheem sterling scored and those bottles and cans thrown in
