9:30 am
that went wrong before, during, and after and try to fix things, you know. in their memory we carry on, we carry on fighting, really, we carry on living. ayshea buksh, bbc news. hello again. well, for many it's already been a lovely start to the day. we've had plenty of sunshine across the skies in england and wales. this was how we started off in norfolk. but looking deeper into the week ahead, it's going to get quite hot for some of us with temperatures towards the end of the week hitting the 30 degree mark — by a country mile, the hottest weather we've seen so far this year. but before we get there, today, we've got some blustery conditions with quite a bit of cloud in the north west, bringing scattered
9:31 am
showers —for england, and wales for the most part, it's a dry day with some warm spells of sunshine throughout the day, really. now, on the satellite picture, we can see a lot of cloud coming into north western areas. and it's this cloud that's bringing those widespread showers at the moment to northern ireland, scotland and a few into the north west of england as well. now, through the day, into the afternoon, those showers become a little bit less widespread, so there'll be a bit more sunshine poking through the clouds here. it stays quite windy, though, with gusts into the 30s mph. further south, the winds lighter, there'll be more sunshine and it will feel warm with just a bit of fairweather cloud. temperatures reaching about 23 in the warmest areas, overnight, a few showers in scotland, but then later in the night, we'll see this area of rain develop in the western isles and the highlands. away from the northwest, though, it's a dry night with some clear
9:32 am
spells and temperatures eight to 11 degrees for most. now, tomorrow, we start off with that area of rain for the highlands and also the western isles. this is the weatherfront and it will push its way towards orkney and shetland eventually bringing rain here late in the day. further south, variable cloud. but many areas will see some sunshine and with the winds lighter across northern areas it will feel warmer. 17 in aberdeen and for belfast. england and wales, further south again having the best of the sunshine and that slightly warmer weather. it's a similar pattern really into tuesday, a few showers for northwest scotland. otherwise, it's dry with some sunshine. wit the sunny skies, the highest temperatures towards the southeast where we're looking at those temperatures climbing to the mid—20s, 25 celsius, 77 in fahrenheit. and then at the end of the week, high pressurejust moves to the east. that will start to draw up some southerly winds. and it's those winds that will really start to boost the temperatures. now, the hottest weather is always going to be across england and wales, cardiff up to 26, friday, london, 29 or 30. scotland and northern ireland, high teens to low 20s at best.

this is bbc news. the headlines. fierce street fighting in eastern ukraine — president zelensky says his forces are "holding on" but warns troops are running low on ammunition. are "holding on" but warns troops the british government is looking at plans to change the law to allow agency staff to be brought in to coverfor some striking workers. tens of thousands rally across the us to call for stricter gun laws, in the wake of recent mass shootings. china says it'll fight to the very end to prevent taiwan from being declared independent. and queen elizabeth ii becomes the world's second—longest serving monarch — only louis xiv of france has ruled for longer.
9:35 am
hello and welcome to our look at what the the papers are saying today. with me shyama perera, journalist and author, and dave wooding, political editor, sun on sunday. the dream team are back in the hot seat. tomorrow's front pages. the observer says borisjohnson�*s post—brexit food strategy is met with rural fury as farmers and environmentalists claim it as a disaster for the countryside. the sunday telegraph's headline — "tories at war over calls to cut taxes" as the cost of living standards continues to rise.
9:36 am
the sunday express tells prince charles to "stay out of politics" following a report he strongly criticised government plans, to send some asylum seekers to rwanda. royal officials insist the prince of wales "remains politically neutral." the mail on sunday also focuses on the asylum policy, as the home secretary welcomes a high court ruling paving the way for the first flight to take people from the uk to rwanda on tuesday. campaigners say they will fight the policy at the court of appeal on monday. the sunday people covers a defiant message from british volunteers fighting in the war in ukraine, as two britons were sentenced to death by an internationally unrecognised court which supports russia. and the sunday times pictures a student holding a sign calling for stricter gun laws in the united states, as thousands of protesters march in cities across america.
9:37 am
so, let's begin. we start with the government's controversial policy on sending some asylum seekers to rwanda. this is reflecting on what prince charles is reported to have said, this was a reported to have said, this was a report yesterday in the times which said he found the whole policy appalling. it hasn't been strongly denied by royal officials, so it looks like that is reflective of his opinion. what do you make of this continuing row over the government policy on dealing with asylum seekers? ~ ., , , policy on dealing with asylum seekers? ~ . , , , seekers? well, assuming it is reflective _ seekers? well, assuming it is reflective of _ seekers? well, assuming it is reflective of his _ seekers? well, assuming it is reflective of his opinion - seekers? well, assuming it is reflective of his opinion for i seekers? well, assuming it is| reflective of his opinion for the moment as they aren't denying it, it seems to me there is a conflation in this whole discussion between political opinion and political allegiance. one can be against the idea of sending refugees to rwanda without it meaning that you are
9:38 am
against the tory party in general. i think this is being seen as an opportunity to have a dig at prince charles and i'm not sure that that's fair. and also of course, as i understand it from reading these stories, he said it in the context of the commonwealth heads of government meeting being held in kigali in a couple of weeks' time, so it's embarrassing there's this huge row going on when he and boris johnson have to go and host the heads of government. it's an interesting story but i'm not sure it's quite as contentious as it's being blown up to be. however, it allows us to keep revisiting this idea of whether we send migrants to rwanda, whether they will be in horrible prison type outfits or whether they are in fact in hotels with swimming pools, it seems unlikely to me in a country where 90% of people and $2 a day. but

9:42 am
prime minister did so because he has veered so far to the path of true conservatism rather than because he is inept and making a fool of the party. but yes, the story is obviously that instead of waiting until 2024 for the next set of tax cuts we ought to bring them forward now and have then two years before and election so that people, so that the struggle that we are all having between heating and eating is eased. the ip extra in income tax should be brought in straightaway, instead of which of course we got the rise in national insurance coming up next month and we have got effectively cut for many of us in our take—home wages coming up. i do wonder when we are looking at all of these, why there can't be stealth easing, why not bring down perhaps some of the duty on fuel which i think it's around 49p in every litre or gallon that we are buying, every litre that we are buying is government tax, why
9:43 am
not bring in a reduction to those taxes rather than attacking the income tax?— taxes rather than attacking the income tax? ~ . �*, .,~ :, income tax? what's your take on where we are _ income tax? what's your take on where we are with _ income tax? what's your take on where we are with boris - income tax? what's your take on | where we are with boris johnson, income tax? what's your take on - where we are with boris johnson, now where we are with borisjohnson, now the dust has settled a bit after that confidence vote? is he a prisoner of his backbenchers, is he a lame—duck minister or is it business as usual? a lame-duck minister or is it business as usual?— a lame-duck minister or is it business as usual? well, he's certainly wounded. _ business as usual? well, he's certainly wounded. the - business as usual? well, he's i certainly wounded. the problem business as usual? well, he's - certainly wounded. the problem has, understandably so, is that lots of people _ understandably so, is that lots of people will be whispering in his ears _ people will be whispering in his ears about what he needs to do to reset— ears about what he needs to do to reset his _ ears about what he needs to do to reset his premiership and his government. there will be so many noises _ government. there will be so many noises coming off stage from him, he's going — noises coming off stage from him, he's going to have to decide who he wants— he's going to have to decide who he wants to _ he's going to have to decide who he wants to listen to and who not. there _ wants to listen to and who not. there were _ wants to listen to and who not. there were those who will say he needs _ there were those who will say he needs to — there were those who will say he needs to shake up his cabinet and remove _ needs to shake up his cabinet and remove lots of key people. he's ctearty — remove lots of key people. he's clearly put that on the back burner for now _ clearly put that on the back burner for now but, yes, tax cuts a big one which _ for now but, yes, tax cuts a big one which a _ for now but, yes, tax cuts a big one which a lot— for now but, yes, tax cuts a big one which a lot of— for now but, yes, tax cuts a big one which a lot of backbenchers are calling —

9:45 am
the next, between cuts of coffee, and this is extremely difficult for us. if he couldn't understand his own rules on social distancing and on cutting numbers during lockdown, how do we expect him to understand really complex stuff like agriculture and security and indeed immigration? so, the story in the times is that he is scaling back plans to re—wild the country. tomorrow we have got the new national food strategy coming out. there's been a lot over the weekend about should there be a sugar tax, should there be assault tax. but this is about food production and saying that we need to cut back on our plans for rewilding, which is an environmental issue, and start giving farmers what they want, which is more opportunity and money to grow food because that is actually an issue of everyday subsistence.
9:46 am
let's take a look at a story in the daily telegraph which is making headlines today which is the idea of the government bringing in agency workers to break strikes and we know that we are facing potentially widespread disruption on the railways and lots of other industrial action potentially over the summer, people even talking about a summer of discontent and the government talking about changes to allow in agency staff. this is quite complicated historically, isn't it? yes, and it's showing a clear line between — yes, and it's showing a clear line between the labour party and the conservative party on this issue. the conservatives have clearly taken the side _ the conservatives have clearly taken the side of _ the conservatives have clearly taken the side of the hard—pressed traveller— the side of the hard—pressed traveller and commuter who wants to -et traveller and commuter who wants to get to— traveller and commuter who wants to get to work— traveller and commuter who wants to get to work in june on the 21st, 23rd _ get to work in june on the 21st, 23rd and — get to work in june on the 21st, 23rd and 25th. whereas some papers are pointing out that members of the labour— are pointing out that members of the labour party who seem to be backing the unions _ labour party who seem to be backing the unions despite the fact that officially— the unions despite the fact that officially they are saying, no, we

9:49 am
and the first thing she was taught when she was doing her teacher training was how to do your training of children, to teach them how to hide under desks and what to do when a shooter comes into your school. so, this is something that is part of everyday life in america. it's incredibly sad, it kind of feels i think probably, i'm guessing, it will fuel a national paranoia, a feeling that someone is always after you, a feeling that you're never quite safe, that there is somebody with an agenda you don't understand who is gunning for you literally. and ijust wonder if who is gunning for you literally. and i just wonder if we who is gunning for you literally. and ijust wonder if we can already see in the american approach to national politics, international politics, that sense of fear and paranoia that must start at a very early age in schools.— paranoia that must start at a very early age in schools. actually, the . un early age in schools. actually, the tun lobb early age in schools. actually, the gun lobby talk— early age in schools. actually, the gun lobby talk about _ early age in schools. actually, the gun lobby talk about the - early age in schools. actually, the gun lobby talk about the right i early age in schools. actually, the gun lobby talk about the right to l gun lobby talk about the right to bear arms and it was embedded in the constitution by the founding fathers
