in from the north—west on tuesday but towards the south and south—east it is still hot with temperatures of 33. so it is heating up during this weekend. the peak of the heat, likely to be on monday and tuesday but still going to be very warm if not hot for large parts of england and wales well into next week. always a little bit cooler further north.

hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me arejessica elgot who's the chief political correspondent at the guardian. and sam lister who's the deputy political editor at the daily express. tomorrow's front pages. the observer is leading on the conservative leadership contest.

they report that a senior tory believes borisjohnson is "bitter" and say he's "trying to wreck sunak�*s bid to replace him". the sunday telegraph is also leading on the leadership contest but they focus on jeremy hunt and sajid javid, reporting that they're both calling for cuts to taxation. the sunday times takes a similar line on the leadership contest by highlighting issues around tax. they report that the former chancellor rishi sunak is being "attacked from all sides". meanwhile the front page of the sunday express is more focussed on brexit — they quote the brexit ministerjacob rees—mogg who says "those who betrayed boris will now seek to neuter brexit". and the sunday mirror's front page is dedicated to the leader of the labour party sir keir starmer. they report that he wants a general election and describes borisjohnson as "squatting in downing street". let us chat about what is in them. as we would expect, plenty on the

leadership contenders. jessica, let us start with the sunday telegraph, xavierjavid and jeremy hunt, the paper saying they are both calling for massive cuts to taxation. your take on that? it for massive cuts to taxation. your take on that?— for massive cuts to taxation. your take on that? it does look like tax cuts will — your take on that? it does look like tax cuts will be _ your take on that? it does look like tax cuts will be the _ your take on that? it does look like tax cuts will be the heart _ your take on that? it does look like tax cuts will be the heart of - your take on that? it does look like tax cuts will be the heart of the - tax cuts will be the heart of the battle for who becomes the next leader of the conservative party. it has always been tricky for rishi sunak, to explain about his time as chancellor, why are the tax burden became so high. that was one thing which irritated so many conservatives about the previous administration and he was a big part of that. he put his pitch out essentially urging people to be sensible, to steady the ship, to try to repair the economic damage wrought by covid.

sajid javid and jeremy hunt are promising to cut that tax burden and we have seen other candidates including nadhim zahawi promise similar things. you would expect the same from liz truss. i suspect when we get down to the final two, that will be the divide line. it seems he alone is sticking with the policy he has been carrying through. in speaking about doing it very differently the other contenders are implicitly criticising what he has done as chancellor. it would be impossible for rishi sunak— it would be impossible for rishi sunak to — it would be impossible for rishi sunak to reverse on the tax cut policy _ sunak to reverse on the tax cut policy he — sunak to reverse on the tax cut policy he has come a tax rise policy he has _ policy he has come a tax rise policy he has implemented, it would be very strange _ he has implemented, it would be very strange for— he has implemented, it would be very strange for him to come out and say he would _ strange for him to come out and say he would reverse that 1.25 percentage point increase in

national insurance. i think what he will try— national insurance. i think what he will try to — national insurance. i think what he will try to do is say, i want to cut taxes. _ will try to do is say, i want to cut taxes. but — will try to do is say, i want to cut taxes. but i _ will try to do is say, i want to cut taxes, but i want to do it when the economy— taxes, but i want to do it when the economy is— taxes, but i want to do it when the economy is on a sound footing, it would _ economy is on a sound footing, it would be — economy is on a sound footing, it would be reckless to go ahead with cuts just _ would be reckless to go ahead with cutsjust because would be reckless to go ahead with cuts just because they are would be reckless to go ahead with cutsjust because they are popular. but it_ cutsjust because they are popular. but it is_ cutsjust because they are popular. but it is a _ cutsjust because they are popular. but it is a massive problem for him. the tory— but it is a massive problem for him. the tory party do not like high taxes — the tory party do not like high taxes and _ the tory party do not like high taxes and he put up taxes in the middle — taxes and he put up taxes in the middle of— taxes and he put up taxes in the middle of a cost of it also makes it look difficult to see how he might work— look difficult to see how he might work with— look difficult to see how he might work with any of the others who have said they— work with any of the others who have said they would have a different policy _ said they would have a different policy going forward. yes _ yes. sorry. yes. sor . ,., yes. sor . . . yes. sor . go ahead, jessica. it does. sorry. go ahead, jessica. it does. there has — sorry. go ahead, jessica. it does. there has been _ sorry. go ahead, jessica. it does. there has been speculation - sorry. go ahead, jessica. it does. i there has been speculation whether rishi sunak and sergeijavid might team up at some point in the contest —— sajid javid. it might be difficult for rishi sunak if this is

going to be their main platform. rishi sunak�*s team will be adding up the billions being spent by these candidates in what they are promising, i2 candidates in what they are promising, 12 billion lost immediately if you cancel the national insurance rise, billions more if you cancel the planned corporation tax rise, the question is, how do you spend on public services if that is what you are going to do. they will have to come up going to do. they will have to come up with answers. talking of money for spending, the sunday telegraph has more detail from grant shapps and they are talking about increasing defence spending. there has been a battle in the last couple _ there has been a battle in the last couple of — there has been a battle in the last couple of weeks about the amount the uk is spending on defence in light of ukraine. an increase was secured,

a promise, _ of ukraine. an increase was secured, a promise, on— of ukraine. an increase was secured, a promise, on defence spending, 2.5% of gdp _ a promise, on defence spending, 2.5% of gdp on _ a promise, on defence spending, 2.5% of gdp on defence, higher than the existing _ of gdp on defence, higher than the existing nato target. because of what _ existing nato target. because of what is — existing nato target. because of what is happening in ukraine, this is traditional cyber, —— traditional warfare, — is traditional cyber, —— traditional warfare, not _ is traditional cyber, —— traditional warfare, not cyber. there aren't many _ warfare, not cyber. there aren't many candidates who would shy away from that _ many candidates who would shy away from that. again, it is classic conservative party territory to spend — conservative party territory to spend money on defence particularly at this— spend money on defence particularly at this time. i don't think that is controversial. jessica, the observer, bitter johnson trying to wreck rishi sunak�*s bid. the paper says a senior tories are accusing borisjohnson of trying to torpedo his bid.

it would be fair to say that the person— it would be fair to say that the person borisjohnson it would be fair to say that the person boris johnson does it would be fair to say that the person borisjohnson does not want to see _ person borisjohnson does not want to see as— person borisjohnson does not want to see as his successor is rishi sunak — to see as his successor is rishi sunak it — to see as his successor is rishi sunak. it seems like relations were particularly — sunak. it seems like relations were particularly bad over this preparation for a joint speech on the economy where they could not agree _ the economy where they could not agree on— the economy where they could not agree on an approach at all. that is before _ agree on an approach at all. that is before you — agree on an approach at all. that is before you get to the personality clashes _ before you get to the personality clashes or— before you get to the personality clashes or rishi sunak's to state for how— clashes or rishi sunak's to state for how borisjohnson clashes or rishi sunak's to state for how boris johnson conducted himself— for how boris johnson conducted himself -- — for how boris johnson conducted himself —— diss taste. and _ himself —— diss taste. and in— himself —— diss taste. and in the observer, eyebrow raising appointments of tory backbenchers to junior— appointments of tory backbenchers to junior ministerial roles. rishi sunak— junior ministerial roles. rishi sunak appearing to imply that is something that could leave him to inherit— something that could leave him to inherit problems, that things aren't

buckingham palace they say is concerned boris johnson may flood the house of lords with tory peers with the resignation honours. a reminder, sam, of the fact there is time to run and there are more things borisjohnson will be doing before he actually leaves. resignation honours are always controversial, i can't remember a prime minister who did that and didn't get hold up in the press. essentially it is their last chance to reward people who have been loyal to reward people who have been loyal to them, helped them during their time in numberio. to them, helped them during their time in number 10. but that leads to claims of cronyism and always an unedifying period. i don't think he will be alone in attracting headlines on that. the house of lords is already overstocked with peers, they are trying to get rid of them not create new ones. but it

will be an issue with that list. jessica, the interview with keir starmer, bring on the general election. and accusing the prime minister of squatting in downing street which is reminiscent of an article turned up again from 2010 when borisjohnson accused gordon brown of effectively squatting in number 10 after the election. i think labour have got a window of opportunity— i think labour have got a window of opportunity to make an impression on voters _ opportunity to make an impression on voters about _ opportunity to make an impression on voters about the tory party not moving — voters about the tory party not moving on _ voters about the tory party not moving on from borisjohnson, that people _ moving on from borisjohnson, that people who — moving on from borisjohnson, that people who have enabled the things that voters find so distasteful, because — that voters find so distasteful, because keir starmer has positioned himself— because keir starmer has positioned himself as _ because keir starmer has positioned himself as the antithesis to boris johnson, — himself as the antithesis to boris johnson, as the model of probity, the trustworthy, serious politician.

it is possible the tories could elect — it is possible the tories could elect someone who fits those descriptions and it is important for labour— descriptions and it is important for labour to— descriptions and it is important for labour to keep that dividing line between — labour to keep that dividing line between them and the conservatives with labour ready for government. this is— with labour ready for government. this is probably the start of what we will— this is probably the start of what we will see over summer which will be a more — we will see over summer which will be a more coherent labour policy offer _ be a more coherent labour policy offer to _ be a more coherent labour policy offer to try— be a more coherent labour policy offer to try to draw a much clearer dividing _ offer to try to draw a much clearer dividing line. let - dividing line. let us finish by talking about the other main story, what is happening in sri lanka, we have coverage from inside the sunday express, protesters storming the president's home in sri lanka, extraordinary scenes with that cost—of—living crisis and the bare essentials now being very hard to get. the president and prime minister on their way out. sam cam it has been

an extraordinary story to watch unfolding, the speed with which the country has gone from having a healthy amount of money to spend on vital imports, to having barely any left in the coffers and this unrest on the streets. thousands of protesters out there. this is— thousands of protesters out there. this is not— thousands of protesters out there. this is not a — thousands of protesters out there. this is not a minor thing. they have stormed _ this is not a minor thing. they have stormed the — this is not a minor thing. they have stormed the president's residence, set fire _ stormed the president's residence, set fire to — stormed the president's residence, set fire to the prime minister's house — set fire to the prime minister's house. the president has agreed to step down— house. the president has agreed to step down i— house. the president has agreed to step down i believe on wednesday, the prime _ step down i believe on wednesday, the prime minister intend to stay on as a caretaker prime minister. this is about— as a caretaker prime minister. this is about the — as a caretaker prime minister. this is about the cost of living crisis and terrifying because at the moment in the _ and terrifying because at the moment in the uk _ and terrifying because at the moment in the uk we are clearly in a much better— in the uk we are clearly in a much better position than sri lanka, but it shows _ better position than sri lanka, but it shows when people are really

light of foot, lightning fast. it requires physical endurance and nerves of steel. and that's the reason that every year, the crowds spill out to watch wimbledon. you see that there? that is centre court and it's been in that spot now for exactly 100 years. a centre court centenary. indeed! nice line. i know how much you love wimbledon but are you like my aunt, who shouts at the tv for two weeks? i absolutely love it and i absolutely am like your aunt. this is the most stressful two weeks of the year for me. my heart rate goes through the roof and i'm just watching the thing on tv. oh, you need one of my activity trackers. i've got a few to spare to track your heart rate. ah, yes! how did you get on with those? well, i'll tell you — and you — about that in a bit. right you are. yeah, wimbledon has been at the forefront of trialling new tech, both on and off the court, and we've been lucky enough to see
