the headlines... there you are! austrians are once again living under full national lockdown restrictions. it's the first european union country to reimpose such a measure this autumn, reflecting surging covid infections as winter looms. it will run for between 10—20 days. police in the us say a man who drove into a crowd at a wisconsin christmas parade, killing five people, will be charged with intentional homicide. he's been named as 39—year—old darrell brooks. in venezuela, nicolas maduro�*s ruling socialist party has won a sweeping victory in regional elections. it won 20 state governorships, against three for the opposition. the women's tennis association says it still has concerns about the well—being of the chinese tennis star peng shuai, despite the international olympic committee having a video call with player.

hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are author and journalist rachel shabi and the chief political correspondent for the daily mail, harriet line. hello again to both of you. let me just take the viewers through some of our front just take the viewers through some of ourfront pages. the metro says the prime minister is accused of losing the plot in a rambling speech to the cbi. the is lead story is scientists urging people to take a covid test before shopping for christmas and other high—risk settings. the telegraph has a warning by lord frost, who says britain cannot carry on as it did before brexit and must cut taxes and reduce regulation.

the ft sastoe biden is choosing continuity in picking jay powell to chair the federal reserve. the daily mail says the parole board is facing a major shake—up. it follows the release of child killer colin pitchfork in september, and he was then recalled to prison last week. and the times has a warning from the vaccine tsar, who says civil service "group think and risk aversion", leaving the country exposed on future threats from climate are leaving the country exposed on future threats from climate change to cyberwa rfa re. that was a flavour of our front pages. harriet and rachel, hello again. rachel, you're going to start us off with the front page of the metro. did you see any of the speech? sorry, harriet. sorry, rachel! i did

conservative mps and the guardian saying he's losing the confidence. there are people who are criticising the downing street operation, so his advisers not giving him the right to advise. actually the problem lives... with the prime minister himself. there's a quote reported by the bbc, there's a lot of concern about the pm. in the cabinet needs to wake up and demand serious changes, otherwise, it will keep getting worse. tonight we've seen quite a substantial rebellion in the commons. i think if you need a wake—up call, that should be it. there's clearly a lot of unhappiness. tory mps are willing to not march through the lobbies with their party, and when you've got even more tricky things, that's going to cause a big problem if it's

the prime minister to cut taxes. the government said it intends to do it, but i think it reflects a much wider concern about the tax burden. it's the highest tax burden since the 19505. lord frost was speaking at the cps think tank making these comments, but it is excreting to see a minister openly urge the prime minister to take to make it... and use this as a way into the downing street saga about what's going on in number ten after the speech this morning. i think tax is one of those elements that's causing a lot of unhappiness among conservatives, as well as things like rails and social care there's a lot of elements. tax

fear of personal error and criticism and risk aversion that stifles initiative and encourages foot dragging, which is about as downing as you can get. some of that criticism will not surprise at all, but i think the position of someone like kate being on making that criticism is really fascinating. we've heard those similar comments over the last few months from people like dominic cummings criticising the way the civil service acted. it's almost suggested if it weren't for people like patrick vallance to break down the stumbling blocks, we could have a very different outcome. it may not have gone as well as the vaccine roll—out has a. it may not have gone as well as the vaccine roll-out has a.— vaccine roll-out has a. rachel, civil service, _ vaccine roll-out has a. rachel, civil service, foot _ vaccine roll-out has a. rachel, civil service, foot bragging, - civil service, foot bragging, inertia, many people wouldn't be surprised. inertia, many people wouldn't be surrised. , ., ,, inertia, many people wouldn't be surrised. , ., ~ �*, surprised. maybe not. ithink it's

good evening. i'm marc edwards with all your latest sports news. the former tottenham hotspur manager, mauricio pochettino, is tonight the leading contender to take over as manager of manchester united, following the departure of 0le gunnar solskjaer. it's not thought the club has made an approach, but pochettino is understood to be open to taking the job now. it's thought he's not completely happy with the setup at his current club, paris saint—germain. he's essentially first—team coach there under sporting director leonardo. pochettino has been at psg for ten months, and they sit 11 points clear at the top of the league after 1a games. it's the manchester united players who are the ones taking responsibility for solskjaer�*s exit at the club — that's according to united captain, harry maguire. he was speaking earlier alongside michael carrick, who's been put in charge of the team for now as a temporary head coach. saturday's 4—1 loss to watford, their fifth defeat in seven league matches, proved to be the final straw for the united

hierarchy, coming as it did on the back of a poor run. the result left united eighth in the premier league, 12 points off leaders chelsea — and prompted the club to part company with solskjaer. but maguire says the players are to blame. we haven't been good enough, we know that individually, collectively, as a team, as players. we know that, we spoke about that, and now we've got to look forward and make sure we get this club back to where it was in the last two years, and honestly, the last few months have been nowhere near good enough, and like i said, the players have a huge responsibility for that as well. united did approach the former real madrid boss, zinedine zidane, about the job, but sources say he's not interested at this stage. he ended his second spell as real manager in may this year, and he's apparently keen on exploring other options, including the french national side, and interestingly psg, which could perhaps have an impact on united's decision. england manager gareth southgate says he has big plans

for the long—term development of the squad after signing a two—year extension to his contract, keeping him in charge until december 202a. southgate guided england to the final of the euros this summer after a semifinal run at the 2018 world cup, and they've already qualified for next year's edition in qatar. southgate took over in 2016, and the new deal means he'll oversee qualification for euro 202a. the last five years have been an incredible experience and we're really pleased with the progress of the team. we feel there's still room for that team to develop, improve. i think everybody's seen what's possible with the existing squad and some of the younger players that are coming through our age—group teams as well. mark cavendish says he is overwhelmed by the messages of support he has received following a bad crash at the weekend. the isle of man rider suffered two broken ribs and a partially—collapsed lung in a crash at the ghent

six day race on sunday. he spent the night in hospital and this evening took to twitter to thank people for their well wishes. he added he was in "a bit of pain", but that "a couple of nights" in the hospital "should sort me out". his team, deceuninck-quick—step, expect him to be discharged by tomorrow morning. the five—time grand slam singles champion alfie hewett says he's thrilled after being told he will be able to continue his wheelchair tennis career. hewett had previously been told new classification rules would make him ineligible. the 23—year—old, who has a hip disorder, was re—assessed and eventually told he did meet the criteria to play on. just clarity, i think, is the big word to sum up the last- two and a half years, - not knowing what's around the corner and that's been sleeping out of my hands, j but to be told the news, i it's excitement and relief and really, i'm more motivated - than i probably have been in a long while to go and pressure on and do
