tv   The Papers  BBC News  June 23, 2022 11:30pm-12:01am BST

11:30 pm
hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are benedicte paviot, who's the uk correspondent for france 2a, and chair of the uk advisory board of reporters without borders. and also with me is the author and journalist emma woolf. let's get to tomorrow's front pages. the strike vote by ba staff at heathrow makes the lead in the i newspaper, which warns of a �*summer of discontent�* as teachers and nursesjoin rail workers in demanding more pay. there's a similar lead in the guardian, which says there is growing unrest among many workers about the rising cost of living. the metro strikes an ominous note,
11:31 pm
predicting a summer of travel disruption for air passengers. the daily mirror chooses to focus on the pay gap between the ba workers and the boss of the airline. the daily mail leads on rwanda, where commonwealth leaders are meeting. it says the pm is to �*rebuke�* prince charles over the prince's reported concerns at the government's plan to send some asylum—seekers to the country. the times also goes with that story, saying borisjohnson has accused his critics of having �*outmoded' views of rwanda. and there's another royal story in the sun. it says the queen has returned to one of her favourite pastimes — horse riding — a move it reckons will cheer the nation. perhaps a rebuke is a bit strong. i
11:32 pm
don't know how you rebuke the future king. but they say boris johnson is urging prince charles to keep an open but they say borisjohnson is urging prince charles to keep an open mind. yes, that is very much the wish of the prime ministerfor yes, that is very much the wish of the prime minister for people yes, that is very much the wish of the prime ministerfor people not to... whether it's prince charles or anyone who is criticising this expulsion policy of illegal migrants coming into the united kingdom, particularly across the channel because of very expensive trafficking with human trafficking across the channel, they're trying to discourage that, so they are warning, the government �*s warning that people will be sent to rwanda. what happened was that plane was stopped from taking off nobody was in it. no illegal migrant identified by the uk authorities was going to be on it because of a last—minute european court of human rights
11:33 pm
ruling that that was on the back of some uk courts�* ruling as well, and we have to wait to see if that goes forward. i completely agree, i think this is an over—the—top headline in the daily mail. i think other papers like the times have got it more right, but i think it is interesting to note that prince charles, who allegedly criticised this policy. his entourage is not happy. this is the first heir to the throne�*s visit to rwanda, it is a country that has done well in its reconciliation process, and also, it�*s the first time in four years that this summit of the commonwealth countries are meeting, and it�*s overshadowed in the british papers by this rwanda
11:34 pm
deal that so far has been very expensive for the uk and has not been implemented and what the prince would like, as he represents the queen to be discussed, is the sustainability agenda and the fact that so many people in the commonwealth are under 30 years old. i think for example, what the duchess of cornwall wants to help highlight is the campaign and concrete action against stopping violence against women. those are the big subjects that should not be overshadowed by, as important as it is, the rwanda ordeal. this overshadowed by, as important as it is, the rwanda ordeal.— is, the rwanda ordeal. this is also on the front _ is, the rwanda ordeal. this is also on the front page _ is, the rwanda ordeal. this is also on the front page of _ is, the rwanda ordeal. this is also on the front page of the _ is, the rwanda ordeal. this is also on the front page of the times. i do you think that people have had an open mind on it and now it�*s time for the prime minister to accept they have given it their openness? find
11:35 pm
prime minister to accept they have given it their openness?— given it their openness? and yet this 'udue given it their openness? and yet this judge who. _ given it their openness? and yet thisjudge who, at _ given it their openness? and yet this judge who, at the _ given it their openness? and yet thisjudge who, at the very - given it their openness? and yet thisjudge who, at the very last i thisjudge who, at the very last minute, — thisjudge who, at the very last minute, prevented the deportation, the name _ minute, prevented the deportation, the name of thatjudge has allegedly not been _ the name of thatjudge has allegedly not been revealed and his identity hasn't _ not been revealed and his identity hasn't been. that is also an interesting development. what's boris _ interesting development. what's borisjohnson is saying is that critics— borisjohnson is saying is that critics of— borisjohnson is saying is that critics of the policy have very outdated _ critics of the policy have very outdated ideas about rwanda and the welcome _ outdated ideas about rwanda and the welcome given to migrants or the reception — welcome given to migrants or the reception given to the migrants will be fair, _ reception given to the migrants will be fair, wiii— reception given to the migrants will be fair, will be within the remit of human_ be fair, will be within the remit of human rights, so what he's saying is he would _ human rights, so what he's saying is he would like people to consider the policy— he would like people to consider the policy again. he is going to have this cup— policy again. he is going to have this cup of— policy again. he is going to have this cup of tea, this rather awkward meeting _ this cup of tea, this rather awkward meeting with prince charles tomorrow at them _ meeting with prince charles tomorrow atthem not— meeting with prince charles tomorrow at the... not yet, still today. he will he _

at the... not yet, still today. he will be having his a sit down with prince _ will be having his a sit down with prince charles, and as benedicte mentioned, the royal aides are extremely frustrated. it's not even a row, _ extremely frustrated. it's not even a row, about the policy, about the private _ a row, about the policy, about the private comments in which the prince allegedly said that the policy was appalling, and that is completely overshadowing the very valuable work that prince _ overshadowing the very valuable work that prince charles wants to achieve at the _ that prince charles wants to achieve at the summit. that prince charles wants to achieve at the summit-— that prince charles wants to achieve at the summit. another story of the times, something _ at the summit. another story of the times, something that's _ at the summit. another story of the times, something that's been - times, something that�*s been referred to by many paper. the summer of discontent coming up, so the times talked about ba staff voting for strikes at the height of summer because this is time to coincide with the summer holidays. yeah, on the one hand, you have anger and frustration at the fact that these 700 members of the gmb and united unions that include checking staff and grant handlers, i
11:37 pm
think also baggage handlers, that they feel very hard done by. they have had to deal with chaos in airports, very frustrated customers, so very tough work conditions. they say they very much had a 10% cut that was imposed on them by british airways, and they are accusing them of pig headedness. unsurprisingly, 95% of that staff voted to strike with a turnout of 80%, so that�*s an overwhelming majority. clearly, there is very bad feelings from british airways who disappointed by this, and yet another dispute that is going to cause huge disruption. if i may, i would refer you to the cartoon in the daily telegraph, who gets it right so often. a lady

11:41 pm
part of the government�*s net zero ambitions, because the prime minister feels the land should be used to grow more food instead rather than the wheat and maize that would be used. benedicte, do you think this is necessary or a good idea? i think this is necessary or a good idea? ~ . . , think this is necessary or a good idea? ~ . ., idea? i think critics will say here we to idea? i think critics will say here we go again- — idea? i think critics will say here we go again- on _ idea? i think critics will say here we go again. on the _ idea? i think critics will say here we go again. on the one - idea? i think critics will say here we go again. on the one hand, l idea? i think critics will say here i we go again. on the one hand, the idea? i think critics will say here - we go again. on the one hand, the uk has cop26 last autumn, and sees itself as pioneering, world leading, and that the opportunity, remains uncertain pledges. there is also real concern about having more independence unless imported food. whether it�*s here, growing more green, orwhether whether it�*s here, growing more green, or whether it is encouraging countries to give more land over to
11:42 pm
grains. i come back to the point i made in ourfirst grains. i come back to the point i made in our first review. what we�*re witnessing is a weaponisation, which is a very 21st century, but perhaps different micro levels, a weaponisation of the provision of food. clearly, the russian invasion, apart from killing people, maiming people, terrifying people, splitting families up, causing a massive exodus to neighbouring countries, it also has mind at the port of 0desa because it is weaponize in the provision of ukraine. to the rest of the world, including africa, helping to further increase famines —— weaponising. this is a very dangerous development. and one that
11:43 pm

11:50 pm
with the daily mirror columnist, susie boniface, and ali miraj, who�*s a columnist for the article. sport next, but for now, goodnight. good evening. i�*m tulsen tollett and this is your sports news, where we start with cricket and the final test between england and new zealand is delicately poised after the opening day at headingley, as the tourists fought back late on. put into bowl, england started brilliantly, stuart broad removing tom latham without scoring in the opening over. and wickets fell at regular intervals, including a moment to rememberforjamie 0verton — his first test wicket as he removed devon conway. new zealand were struggling on 123—5 when henry nicholls was caught in bizarre circumstances off the bowling of jack leach, his second wicket of the day. but daryl mitchell and tom blundell
11:51 pm
frustrated england late on. mitchell reaching his 50, as the pair put on a partnership of 102, with new zealand closing on 225—5. well, the late fightback from new zealand didn�*t dampen jamie 0verton�*s day, who admitted it was one to remember, after a debut wicket. it�*s taken him 15 years to get his first england cap, and he says the whole day has yet to fully sink in. i�*m not really. i think you have those dreams of playing for england. you like to think they do happen, but i think there�*s a lot of youngsters in the uk that want to play cricket for england but don�*t get the opportunity. i�*m very delighted to get the opportunity and very thankful for that as well. the chair of yorkshire county cricket club, lord patel, admits he was worried international cricket wouldn�*t return to headingley after seeing evidence
11:52 pm
of racism levelled against the club. the test match between england and new zealand is the first international at yorkshire since the england and wales cricket board lifted a ban on sanctions imposed, following the racism scandal around azeem rafiq. if test match didn't come back for major matches, back or major matches, then we were going to go bankrupt. we literally were. we re were you going to lay off all the staff? _ with the opening round of wimbledon just around the corner, it�*s been a day of disappointment for two of britain�*s top tennis players at eastbourne. harriet dart is out after she lost her quarter—final in straight sets against petra kvitova — the two—time wimbledon champion winning 6—3, 6—4. in the men�*s draw, disappointment too for world number 12 and top seed cameron norrie. he lost his quarter—final against maxime cressy in straight sets. and cressy will now play another british player in the semi—finals, as jack draper awaits.
11:53 pm
he beat another british player, ryan peniston, in straight sets 6—3, 6—3. it�*s the first time draper has reached a semi—final on the main atp tour. in the next couple of days, all eyes will be turning to wimbledon, as the third grand slam of the season gets under way on monday. it�*s the first time in three years that the championship will be at full capacity and players given much more freedom around the swi9 grounds. wimbledon�*s ceo sally bolton says this year feels more exciting than ever. it's really incredible to be back and it's incredible to be back. as a full championship this year. the players are able to stay in the accommodation - they want, they're no longer. in a minimise risk environment. you can see them walking around the grounds _ we'll have full spectators, - the weather looks like it might be set, so i think reasons to be excited about. i northern ireland�*s women will head to this summer�*s
11:54 pm
european championships on the back of a disappointing defeat, after losing their only warm—up match for the tournament. they were beaten 4—1 away to belgium, tessa wullert putting the home side ahead. northern ireland did equalise before half—time. lauren wade with an excellent opportunist finish. but northern ireland then had goalkeeperjackie burns sent off, and belgium scored three goals late on to seal a 4—1 win. northern ireland kick their tournament off against norway onjuly 7th. there�*s been a big signing in the premier league this evening, with newcastle united adding to their squad. england goalkeeper nick pope has joined from burnley for an undisclosed fee. pope has signed a four—year deal and becomes newcastle�*s second signing of the summer, following the arrival of defender matt targett, who moved to st james�* park earlier this month. sheffield united say they�*re disappointed that two of their players are to be charged with common assault following a pitch invasion at nottingham forest during their play—off
11:55 pm
semi—final defeat in may. rhian brewster and oh mcburnie are the two players charged, following trouble after united lost the match on penalties. in a statement, the club say the pair deny the charges. rory mcilroy will be enjoying his decision to stick with the pga tour tonight, rather than cross to the controversial saudi—funded liv series. he�*s at the top of the leaderboard after his opening round on the tour�*s latest event — the travelers championship in connecticut. mcilroy began with a bogey—free round of 62, leaving him on 8—under par. scotland�*s martin laird is a shot further back. and at the latest women�*s golf major, the pga championship, south korea�*s in gee chun has had a stunning opening round, equalling the record for the lowest first—round score. she went round in 64, finishing 8—under par for the day. they ran in eight tries in all,
11:56 pm
including this one. �*s aunt helen�*s have moved clear to the top of the table after beating leeds. running a tries in all, including this one from dan norman. they play fourth consecutive title will certainly take some stopping. for more on that and everything else, you can head to the bbc sport website, but that is all your sport for now. hello there. showers have been making their way northwards through the night accompanied by the odd rumble of thunder. not as warm for the day ahead, and there will be some sunshine around certainly, but equally a rash of showers will develop as the day goes, that�*s because we got low pressure moving into the west now and throwing bands of rain or showers our way. we�*re are also seeking some misty, low cloud and fog coming we�*re are also seeing some misty, low cloud and fog coming into eastern scotland,
11:57 pm
and it will be a much warmer start to friday, quite a close night and end to the night. that mist and fog could hang around, cloudy for the northern isles, showers developing quite quickly turning heavy and thundery, and then more persistent rain pushes into the southwest of england, western wales and more notably northern ireland later in the day. it turns quite wet and breezy, increasingly breezy, particularly in the west, so it will feel fresher here. we could still see 25—26 celsius in the east, but not as warm for northern england, north wales or scotland as it was during the day on thursday. but still some very high levels of pollen despite a scattering of showers around across parts of the midlands, east anglia, up up into lincolnshire in the southeast. we do see that band of rain turning more showery pushing northwards during the evening and overnight. that low pressure centred, as you can see, to the west of us, and it�*s going to stay there. it�*s going to become stalled, slow moving, and it�*s going to continue throw showers across the united kingdom, and because it�*s low pressure, it makes the air conducive to seeing showers anyway, so some of them will be heavy, the odd rumble of thunder, but as the breeze increases later today and through the weekend, certainly unusually windy
