the times is leading with the same story as the i and says over 50s will be called for the new vaccine within weeks. according to the guardian, ministers are planning to slash redundancy pay for civil servants while cutting tens of thousands of whitehall jobs. the daily mirror leads of the story of a dying mum who say crippling energy bills are making her last days a misery. the start of footballer benjamin mendy�*s trial is the lead for the metro. a year since the taliban returned to power in afghanistan, the ft pictures soldiers supporting the group celebrating in kabul today. the daily express says liz truss is vowing to reject a second scottish independence referendum if she becomes prime minister next month. and the telegraph has a picture of removal vans outside number 10, with the headline "johnson checks out...and into chequers". penny and digby, digby, do you want to kick us off this time with the front of the times? we are mixing up

the stories, we have got almost completely a different set of stories, and also i have to put the stick about, so we need to get more stories this time. laughter i was being too liberal as a presenter! we cannot have that sort of thing. imilli! presenter! we cannot have that sort of thin. ~ , ., presenter! we cannot have that sort ofthin~.~ , ., _ of thing. will be in detention by friday... laughter _ friday... laughter over to _ friday. . . laughter over to you, - friday... laughter over to you, digby, i friday... laughter - over to you, digby, trust will target help with energy bills at the poorest. she target help with energy bills at the oorest. ,, target help with energy bills at the oorest. ., , target help with energy bills at the oorest. ,, , ., ., poorest. she will try and target this taxpayers _ poorest. she will try and target this taxpayers money, - poorest. she will try and target this taxpayers money, when i this taxpayers money, when government help means everybody pays, and to target it to people who really need it, notjust do a cap on energy bills so the richest person gets it like the poorest. this is the beginning of a degree of means testing, a degree of looking at people and acknowledging that they are poor. that always has problems. always the left wing tend to hate that, but how else do you do it? she

is onto something, because hallas you do it if you want to target this taxpayers money into helping the people who are really going to have an enormous problem? what is interesting, the times on the inside page, and one or two other papers, writing this idea that keir starmer, the leader of the labour party has promulgated today about taking a load of taxpayers money, taking it and actually boosted, put it into these poorest people, so it really does people pay less for their energy. if i was keir starmer in the morning, when i open my newspapers, i would think, what else have i got to do? neither the mirror nor the guardian, both of whom are... both of them would support the labour party. and you would think they would carry this massive statement, starmer has been accused by

everybody of having no idea, not having original thought, you would've thought when you come from this idea which has some merit, that it would be on the front page, and neither the guardian or the mirror carries it, and yet they headed employee of time before publishing. i find that strange. but the concept of liz truss saying, i will target it at the people who really need it, 2 million people, won't get through the winter, that is politics and thatis the winter, that is politics and that is something we should all do some thing about the stub but starmer sang, some thing about the stub but starmersang, put some thing about the stub but starmer sang, put billions of money into making sure people can afford this increase in energy prices must the problem with that one is, it is quoted in the story, he will spend as much money as he did in furlough. the war of attrition in ukraine carries on and on and on and putin carries on and on and on and putin carries on, and if germany or france get flaky, that means this will go on for years stub what is any

royal navy would take over the board of control and take over this channel problem, immigration, and they always said they would review it and then they would last probably untiljanuary of 2023, and today theyjust untiljanuary of 2023, and today they just said untiljanuary of 2023, and today theyjust said it is was last until 23 and we are coming out then, so they're only been with a always said they're only been with a always said they would do. what the article does not do and could do probably is say, when you have the royal navy, the lifeboat, if you have the local lifeguard on the beach, this is all going to begin and end in france, and unless somebody is prepared to do the battle of trafalgar, which the navy did excel in 1805, unless you have some sort of do with france in some way, you could put whoever you like in this channel, it will make not a jot of difference. channel, it will make not a 'ot of difference.— channel, it will make not a 'ot of difference.- what h channel, it will make not a jot of difference.- what on - channel, it will make not a jot of| difference.- what on earth difference. penny? what on earth could i difference. penny? what on earth could i add? _

for the eu. they are young men who want to better their lives, they are economic migrants that want to buy their lives, but the legislation is geared towards asylum—seekers, all that stuff, but what we ought to be doing is going to albania and saying but don't let them calm. rather than, when they are on a beach in dover, when as penny said, it is too late. �* , ., ~ dover, when as penny said, it is too late. �*, ., ,, ., dover, when as penny said, it is too late. �*, ., «an ., , late. let's talk about the, finally, dail mail late. let's talk about the, finally, daily mail story. _ late. let's talk about the, finally, daily mail story. air— late. let's talk about the, finally, daily mail story. air chaos - late. let's talk about the, finally, daily mail story. air chaos to - late. let's talk about the, finally, daily mail story. air chaos to hit i daily mail story. air chaos to hit half term. it is easier to come in, not easier to leave i think heathrow are an example of appallingly bad management. during the pandemic, they lost people without any heads up. they laid them

off and these people went and got otherjobs. they thought, this is better pay, i am not going back, and they got this problem of not enough people. one way of dealing with it is just turn your customers away. if business generally did that, they would go bust. and then they would not make any money. if you don't make profit, you cannot pay tax, if you do not pay tax, you cannot build schools and hospitals. it is quite easy. on that basis, for them to stand there and say, we will turn our business away, and therefore the airlines cannot operate, they cannot sell the tickets and kids at half trmal get away, and have a half term, parents won't get their families away, it is absolutely disgraceful. i families away, it is absolutely disgraceful.— families away, it is absolutely disaraceful. . , ., ., disgraceful. i am 'ust waiting for the lawyers, — disgraceful. i am just waiting for the lawyers, actually, _ disgraceful. i am just waiting for the lawyers, actually, to - disgraceful. i am just waiting for the lawyers, actually, to ask - disgraceful. i am just waiting for the lawyers, actually, to ask for| the lawyers, actually, to ask for compensation. can you imagine? you've _ compensation. can you imagine? you've already planned your holiday, your half— you've already planned your holiday, your half term, and you can notify your half term, and you can notify you cannot — your half term, and you can notify you cannot go. i thought it was sad we could _ you cannot go. i thought it was sad we could not and on a cheery note,

but i would drink to penny and digby. bless you! thank you for your company at home. more sport coming up. the papers will be back again tomorrow evening with annabel denham from the free market think tank the institute of economics affairs and the author and journalist, rachel shabi. dojoin me then do join me then for that, but that is it for the papers tonight. do stay with us, though, on bbc news. good evening, i'm tulsen tollett and this is your sports news, where we start with football. and liverpool's big summer signing darwin nunez will miss their next three games after being sent off during their 1—1 draw at home to crystal palace. jurgen klopp's team remain without a win after two premier league games this season. crystal palace took the lead at anfield through wilfried zaha, as he put them on their way

to theirfirst point of the campaign. nunez then saw red after headbutting joachim andersen. liverpool's luis diaz salvaged a draw with a superb equaliser shortly after his team—mate's dismissal. liverpool's next game is away at manchester united next monday. it was tough, and then how the story of the game didn't make it easier. and i loved the reaction. and that's what you have to show. that's what we will take. we want to fight. we're liverpool — we want to fight. if we cannot play like geniuses in the moment, then give it a go, and that's what we did today, and i'm happy with that. some further developments on that ill—tempered finish to the chelsea—tottenham game to bring you. thomas tuchel and antonio conte have both been charged by the fa with improper behaviour. at the final whistle at stamford bridge, tuchel and conte had to be separated — both managers shown red cards after a dramatic match which saw spurs twice come from behind, the second equaliser coming from harry kane deep into second—half stoppage time.

the pair have until thursday to provide their respective responses. former footballer lenjohnrose, who had motor neurone disease, has died. the 52—year—old had kept a positive outlook during interviews with the bbc since his diagnosis in 2017. johnrose made more than 500 career appearances for clubs including bury, blackburn rovers, preston north end and swansea. lenjohnrose, who has died aged 52. less than two weeks after winning the 10,000 metres at the commonwealth games, eilish mccolgan fell just short as she aimed to become european champion. the scottish athlete was in contention for much of the race but had no answer when turkey's yasemin can broke away, as she eased to victory. mccolgan was able to finish second, though, to add silver to her commonwealth title.

i'm obviously disappointed. i would've loved to have, yeah, become european champ tonight, but tired, tired legs! i definitely felt that today. it's been probably one of the craziest weeks of my life at the commonwealth games, such a big high of emotions and, yeah, not a lot of sleep, so, yeah, i found it tough to get myself up again today. but i can't complain. i did a lot of work tonight and came away with a silver medal. they say it's a marathon, not a sprint, but try telling that to germany's richard ringer — as he appeared to come out of nowhere to take the mens marathon title. ringer produced an extraordinarily well—judged final burst past israel's maru teferi and gashau ayale with a sprint finish to cross the line in a time of two hours, ten minutes, 21 seconds in front of the home crowd. aleksandra lisowska of poland took gold in the women's race. in the european aquatics championships in rome,
