hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are sienna rodgers editor of the labourlist and sebastian payne the whitehall editor for the ft. lovely to have you both back. tens of thousands of families in the uk are opening their homes to refugees from ukraine, according to the i. communities secretary michael gove says there will be no limit to how many ukrainians can enter the uk through the government's visa sponsorship scheme. the mail says the government's official "homes for ukraine" website was overwhelmed just minutes after its launch — with 1,500 signing up inside an hour. that story also the lead
11:32 pm
for the times — which continues to follow the journey of the sanctioned former chelsea owner roman abramovich, pictured here at an airport in israel, shortly before leaving for istanbul. the humanitarian crisis sparked by russia's invasion is the lead for the guardian — but the paper's front page also shines a spotlight on an employee for russia's state broadcaster, who burst on to the set of a live news broadcast carrying a placard calling for a stop to the war. in an article for the telegraph — borisjohnson says the west made a "terrible mistake" by continuing to rely on russian oil and gas after moscow's 2014 invasion of crimea — the paper also carries an image of a resident of a kyiv apartment block struck by a russian missile. the mirror claims three ex—soliders from the uk were among those killed at the weekend in an russian airstrike on a military training base in western ukraine, close to its border with poland.
11:33 pm
the metro takes aim at the london properties bought by russian oligarchs — one of which was occpuied today by a group of protesters, who stormed the empty 50 million pound bolthole of a man described as "putin's favourite industrialist". though were the front pages. let us crack on. sebastian, you are going to lead this time around, please, it's the lead story for the times. the rush to taking ukrainians. the government's _ the rush to taking ukrainians. tue: government's new the rush to taking ukrainians. tte: government's new homes for ukraine schemes opened at 6:30pm today. it was announced yesterday and michael gove made a statement to the house of commons setting it out. the response has been pretty phenomenal within the first couple of hours, 20,000 have signed up, last i heard it's now 15,000, this beats all the expectations that government were hoping for. i'm sure they will be relieved by it, because obviously
11:34 pm
the uk has been criticised by conservative mps, internationally verbally not stepping up to the plate on the refugee situation, where you countries have dropped all visa requirements, we have ends, and even though you countries you can come for an indefinite period, for the uk, until this game, you would have to be sponsored by a company or for family reunification. have to be sponsored by a company or forfamily reunification. this new humanitarian visa system will allow ukrainians to be matched up with britons who will then offer a minimum of six months accommodation. households will be paid 200 month four i think your payment and local authorities will be given £10,000 to help support the public services. i think, you know, this deflects that criticism that the uk government hadn't been generous enough, because clearly the population of the uk has been, and you can imagine that number will grow in the coming days, of course, the real test is going to be does this work? because britons have to be matched with ukrainians
11:35 pm
for this to happen, both sides have got to go with the security checks and michael gove suggested today that the first people could come through next week, which, again, i think so far, this is a great indication about the country and about the national mood, about that desire to do something to help with this most awful of circumstances. when you look at some of the figures that the un hrc, the figures that i'm following have quoted 2.8 million have fled since the 24th of february, half of those to poland and poland is saying that they are struggling. and poland is saying that they are stru~lin~. , , . and poland is saying that they are stru~linu. , . ,, ., and poland is saying that they are stru~lin~. , , ~ ~ ., ., struggling. absolutely. we know that other countries _ struggling. absolutely. we know that other countries have _ struggling. absolutely. we know that other countries have taken _ struggling. absolutely. we know that other countries have taken in - struggling. absolutely. we know that other countries have taken in so - other countries have taken in so many— other countries have taken in so many ukrainian refugees and that our numbers, _ many ukrainian refugees and that our numbers, i_ many ukrainian refugees and that our numbers, i mean, theyjust do not compare, obviously part of that, something that ministers say all the time is _ something that ministers say all the time is that people will naturally io time is that people will naturally go to— time is that people will naturally go to the — time is that people will naturally go to the countries nearby, neighbouring countries, and obviously we are an island, we are further_ obviously we are an island, we are further away, obviously we are an island, we are furtheraway, but obviously we are an island, we are further away, but obviously part of that also _

11:37 pm
have seen more evidence of the past 24 have seen more evidence of the past 2a hours of pretty much the worse case scenario of what the west was expecting russia to do, which is carpet bombing some of the biggest cities, and the scenes of devastation are just totally appalling and mind—boggling when you see the damage that's being done to places that just a see the damage that's being done to places thatjust a month ago where healthy, prosperous, vibrant cities across ukraine that millions of people are living in, and now they are just bombed out shelters. 0f are just bombed out shelters. of course as expressed on the front of the guardian from a lot of concern about what is it going to need for key with a population of 4 million from an asset to have dropped to 2 million as lots of people have fled out with anticipation of what's about to come. if you look at what towns and cities already, it's clear that there are war crimes going on here that russia is indiscriminately targeting the civilian population as well as military installations. in the situation from x—ray and comfortable for the west, because we have supplied russia with weapons in the uk in particular has done that
11:38 pm
with anti—tank weaponry, and it's going to increase that as well, borisjohnson the defence and —— defence secretary and said that is in name, but none of us is going to stop this russian shelling and russian attacks because we know they are ground troops have struggled to make headway on those convoys have been targeted by the ukrainian army, but the sky attacks are still continuing in an awful indiscriminate way. the issue is that the only real way to stop that would be with a no—fly zone, but the west has ruled that out, nato said it would lead to a direct conflict with russia. you have to take that russia's air defences and you would see nato plans going head—to—head with russian planes, and that could escalate this conflict into something much bigger and much more dangerous rather rapidly. so unfortunately, apart from supplying more weaponry, you see these kinds of scenes and all you can really do is just pray and hope that as many people survived as possible. it's very, very depressing. t’m people survived as possible. it's very, very depressing.— very, very depressing. i'm 'ust auoin to very, very depressing. i'm 'ust going to pick i very, very depressing. i'm 'ust going to pick up i very, very depressing. i'm 'ust going to pick up on i very, very depressing. i'm 'ust going to pick up on that h very, very depressing. i'mjust going to pick up on that point. very, very depressing. i'm just - going to pick up on that point about were crimes. i don't know if you heard the ukrainian prime minister is speaking today at the council of

11:43 pm
is. we don't know whether it's weaponry, whether it's military intelligence, whether it is tech, personnel, but the us is very concerned that china is about to help in some way because of course russia has lost all of its allies throughout all of this in the west, and china is the only major economic power it can turn to to support it in this situation. so beijing is interested there to help out. jake sullivan, the us national security adviser has made it very clear to beijing that they should not cross a line and not directly help the situation because, of course, beijing does not want to get into a conflict with the west, nor does it want to face the kind of very deep and damaging economic sanctions that we are seeing russia face because that would be devastating for its economy. again, it has a careful line to tread here, but the fact is, you know, the president of china is an ally of president putin. i imagine they will help out covertly or otherwise as we see the us is

11:47 pm
tried it in several sites in the uk with very mixed results, huge backlash from local communities, and essentially, the department for business has made it clear that this is not the solution, that if we go down this route again and open up fracking, then it is going to have him it's going to waste resources that could've gone elsewhere and trying to secure the uk's energy security without relying on boris johnson was saying he has written this article which has focused on broad themes about russia where the west has gone wrong, it's not entirely helpful for this particular situation, but it says that we are going to push forward with an explanation gas exploration for oil and that might challenge the net zero target but the prime minister says he still wants to meet that by taking a big gamble by renewables at home but also in a small—scale nuclear project which is something conservatives are quite keen on, but it's a ten year project to test that out to see if that's actually going to work and be able to produce
11:48 pm
reliable scales of energy that we need here, but as i said, crucially, there is no mention of fracking. tory mps will not be happy by that time i think that signals that no matter whatever boris johnson maintained at, that is not going to be part of the solution for the energy dilemma.— be part of the solution for the energy dilemma. be part of the solution for the eneri dilemma. , a , ., energy dilemma. very quickly, front .a , e energy dilemma. very quickly, front -aie of the energy dilemma. very quickly, front page of the ft. _ energy dilemma. very quickly, front page of the ft, inflation _ energy dilemma. very quickly, front page of the ft, inflation shopping i page of the ft, inflation shopping basket has changed somewhat. 0bviously inflation is a pressing obviously inflation is a pressing concern — obviously inflation is a pressing concern at _ obviously inflation is a pressing concern at the moment. lots of discussion— concern at the moment. lots of discussion about how we measure inflation _ discussion about how we measure inflation and whether the office for national— inflation and whether the office for national statistics are actually going — national statistics are actually going to react to the fact that sometimes the headline figure doesn't — sometimes the headline figure doesn't properly reflect the bigger jumps _ doesn't properly reflect the bigger jumps in _ doesn't properly reflect the bigger jumps in particular goods and we are talking _ jumps in particular goods and we are talking about essentials, so this is something — talking about essentials, so this is something that the food campaigner jack munro really highlighted in the ons responded by saying, you know, actually. _ ons responded by saying, you know, actually, we are going to start reflecting that by showing more broadly — reflecting that by showing more broadly what the effect is of

11:50 pm
alive after manchester city missed the chance to go six points clear at the top. they completely dominated against crystal palace — but couldn't find a way through. reginaldo rosario was watching. palace, having beaten city earlier in the season, south forest park was the latest start, facing the crystal palace side who had only lost one over the last eight in all competitions. having giving their keen interest from midweek exertions in europe, city said —— set about in the usual dominant fashion, the returning consuelo rattling though would work. tell having beaten city earlier in the season had moments of their own, the season had moments of their own, the header lacking the required precision. city continue to exert pressure in the second half, kevin to bring her hitting the frame probably keeping out the follow—up.
11:51 pm
the nerves slowly kept in for city. failing to guide from jack gray lesch's cross with a goal at his mercy. disbelief building on the touchline, frustration evident on the pitch. an opportunity next for city. south forest park providing another potential title twist in the red half of merseyside suddenly senses an opening. after a turbulent week off the pitch, there has been some potentially positive news for chelsea today. the american investment firm tasked with selling the club says it could happen by the end of the month after positive talks with the uk government. the sale had been put on hold following sanctions against chelsea's russian owner roman abramovich last week. the deadline for bids has been extended to this friday — with more than 20 credible parties interested. the sanctions also mean that chelsea are unable to sell tickets for their forthcoming matches and the club have said they are �*pressing the government�* for that to change. they say meetings are taking place
11:52 pm
daily and the issue of sporting integrity is also being discussed if fans are not allowed to attend. celtic will face old firm rivals rangers in the semi finals of the scottish cup — after ange postecoglou's side eased into the final four. they thrashed dundee united 3—0 at tannadice park — callum mcgregor putting the away side in front afterjsut 12 minutes. before two goals from giorgos giakoumakis sealed the win. the other semi final will also be a derby as hibernian face edinburgh rivals hearts. meanwhile, the scotland national team have announced they'll play poland in a friendly on the 24th march — with ten pounds from every ticket sold going towards unicef�*s ukraine emergency fund. the match at hampden park, replaces the world cup play—off semi—final against ukraine, which has been postponed untiljune due to the ongoing war. poland were also due to play russia in their semi—final that day but after fifa threw the russians
11:53 pm
out of the tournament as a sanction for the invasion, the poles will travel to glasgow instead. to tennis where britain's cameron norrie is in third round action at indian wells later — he faces the world number 18 nikolaz basilashvili. disappointment though for fellow brit dan evans. he's been knocked out in straight sets by the world number 4 rafael nadal. the 21 time major winner edging a tight first set before asserting himself to come through, 7—5 6—3. it's now 17 straight wins for nadal, he's still unbeaten in 2022. england's men hope to get a new managing director and head coach in place before their summer starts injune. that's what the man in temporary charge, sir andrew strauss, told the bbc today. strauss was at england training in barbados wherejofra archer linked up with the squad — as he continues his recovery from injury. archer bowled in the nets. england hope to have him back at some point this summer, by which time strauss told our cricket correspondent jonathan agnew, he wants to have a new management team
11:54 pm
