10:33 pm
in the front pages and we are certainly getting it, let's begin, and welcome to you both, nigel and jo. let's start with the telegraph, england paid the penalty. jo, penalties, as usual. we were talking about this. both teams coming in strong, respecting each other, but england just not quite cutting it. i know, and penalties are the worst, they are what you pray for when you are losing as it might change things around and obviously when harry kane did score it did put us back into the running against france but then missing the second one, but my heart went out to marcus rashford, 99 minutes into the game, so eight minutes into the game, so eight minutes into the game, so eight minutes into extra time, and you just think, oh, the pressure. but what a fabulous photograph of gareth southgate, that is on all the front pages, as you said, putting his arms
10:34 pm
around his captain, his team, holding harry kane's head in his hands, and you know he is saying something proper and sensible. proper and sensible, consoling, the observer also has a slightly, a similar image, not quite the same, but a full and embrace there, southgate, just been really... nigel, your assessment of how the manager has done throughout this world cup? it is manager has done throughout this world cu - ? , ., manager has done throughout this world cu? , ., , ~ ., world cup? it is not 'ust the world cu - , world cup? it is not 'ust the world cu, he world cup? it is not 'ust the world cup. he has h world cup? it is not 'ust the world cup, he has done _ world cup? it is notjust the world cup, he has done fantastically - world cup? it is notjust the world cup, he has done fantastically all. cup, he has done fantastically all the way— cup, he has done fantastically all the way through since he has been dealing _ the way through since he has been dealing with england. so, i mean, you know. — dealing with england. so, i mean, you know. it— dealing with england. so, i mean, you know, it is the human bit you get, _ you know, it is the human bit you get, you — you know, it is the human bit you get, you can _ you know, it is the human bit you get, you can imagine the abject disappointment, and we saw the tears with the _ disappointment, and we saw the tears with the players, about what happened tonight, and gareth southgate goes out there, give them a hug. _ southgate goes out there, give them a hug. tries — southgate goes out there, give them a hug, tries to sort of comfort
10:35 pm
harty— a hug, tries to sort of comfort harry kane _ a hug, tries to sort of comfort harry kane who must be feeling absolutely dreadful this evening after missing that penalty, that is the kind _ after missing that penalty, that is the kind of coach he is. what i rather— the kind of coach he is. what i rather hope is that there is some speculation at the moment that he may not— speculation at the moment that he may not continue as england coach, i rather— may not continue as england coach, i rather hope _ may not continue as england coach, i rather hope he does. i think he has taken _ rather hope he does. i think he has taken england to not exactly victory but very— taken england to not exactly victory but very close to it several times, and it— but very close to it several times, and it would be good for him to actually— and it would be good for him to actually carry on. it and it would be good for him to actually carry on.— and it would be good for him to actually carry on. it did feel like there was _ actually carry on. it did feel like there was that _ actually carry on. it did feel like there was that genuine - actually carry on. it did feel like there was that genuine belief, i actually carry on. it did feel like i there was that genuine belief, and again as we look at the sunday express, au revoir qatar is their title, but, jo, again there southgate this time consoling marcus rashford. fans that this was it, it was a really strong chance for england. yes. but, you know, we always feel that and as all football fans say,
10:36 pm
it is the hope you can't stand. you know, we were looking good, we were looking very strong, but france were so fantastic tonight, i mean, there were some very questionable refereeing decisions and in fact both penalties, i think, were as a result of the ar but, you know, you can, and i am sure everybody will and it is not necessarily for us to do here but they will be plenty of postmortems about the play, but i do agree with nigel, i think gareth southgate has been absolutely remarkable, as has his team. these are young men, due to bellingen is only 19, are young men, due to bellingen is onlyi9, undersuch are young men, due to bellingen is only 19, under such enormous pressure. —— due to bellingham. isn't it fantastic that we see this team in the front pages and the back pages about football but not about scandals and off pitch behaviour, and i think southgate has brought a calmness and dignity and i think he
10:37 pm
has restored the pride in england and football, and i do hope he stays on, he's a good bloke. its, and football, and i do hope he stays on, he's a good bloke.— and football, and i do hope he stays on, he's a good bloke. a good bloke, and auain, on, he's a good bloke. a good bloke, and again, qatar's _ on, he's a good bloke. a good bloke, and again, qatar's heroes. _ on, he's a good bloke. a good bloke, and again, qatar's heroes. on - on, he's a good bloke. a good bloke, and again, qatar's heroes. on the . and again, qatar's heroes. on the front of the people. but all of the papers focusing in on this, that heroes, and again the image of southgate and marcus rashford there. the gutted reaction of harry kane there. , ., ., , ., there. they are heroes. the whole thin is there. they are heroes. the whole thing is they _ there. they are heroes. the whole thing is they played _ there. they are heroes. the whole thing is they played magnificentlyl thing is they played magnificently throughout and they were facing the 2018 champions and i think there was a feeling _ 2018 champions and i think there was a feeling that it would be a bit of a feeling that it would be a bit of a surprise — a feeling that it would be a bit of a surprise if they would actually beat _ a surprise if they would actually beat them. now, i have been working on our— beat them. now, i have been working on our papers today so i managed to -et on our papers today so i managed to get in _ on our papers today so i managed to get injust— on our papers today so i managed to get injust as — on our papers today so i managed to get injust as harry kane scored that first —

10:39 pm
world cup focusing on the cata in the first place, the football started and our attention got swayed, what do you expect? well, i think there are _ swayed, what do you expect? well, i think there are an _ swayed, what do you expect? well, i think there are an awful— swayed, what do you expect? well, i think there are an awful lot - swayed, what do you expect? well, i think there are an awful lot of - think there are an awful lot of questions that should have been asked 12 years ago when qatar won the bid to host the world cup, and i think they should be a postmortem about this, as much as all the games, because it has been a tournament of considerable upsets, you know, portugal and spain knocked out, germany as well, great excitement that morocco are going through to the next stage. and, you know, there have been a lot of upsets from the football but i think the whole tournament has been tainted by the fact that this was clearly a very bad decision, it was probably very corrupt, it is the wrong place, the wrong time of year, appalling record on human rights, not least of all the people who have been employed, and i use that term
10:40 pm
very loosely, to build the stadio and the hospitality areas for the fans. so, there may be questions. i suppose the only good thing you can say is that perhaps more people know now how shocking it is than would have done if it hadn't been there but i think it would have been better if it hadn't, the world cup had not gone to qatar in the first place. had not gone to qatar in the first lace. , ., . ~' ,, had not gone to qatar in the first lace. , ., ., ,, i. ., ., place. jo, thank you, we are going to leave the _ place. jo, thank you, we are going to leave the football _ place. jo, thank you, we are going to leave the football for _ place. jo, thank you, we are going to leave the football for the - place. jo, thank you, we are going to leave the football for the time i to leave the football for the time being and focus in on some of the other stories in the papers. going back to the observer, we will suspend strikes if you talk about pay, this is according to health unions, nigel. we have been bracing ourselves for lots of different industries taking up their strike action by the royal college of nursing is the one that people really, the fact that nurses feel they need to be in this position and yet tonight we're hearing that there
10:41 pm

10:43 pm
not the bma, it is local medical committees, they represent doctors but they are not the bma which is the doctor's union, who wanted to go for a 95 working day, —— nine to five, their argument is they would be able to recruit and maintain staff, there is a huge shortage of gps. but i think this is really interesting, here we have a labour shadow health secretary saying what many people think is unsayable, that the nhs must reform or die. now, that puts the labour party on the front foot in being grown up and willing to have difficult conversations because heaven knows, there are some difficult conversations that haven't been taking place, not least of all because as nigeljust said, between the government and the unions who
10:44 pm
are threatening strike action. and if the labour party is showing itself to be willing to have conversations, meaningful conversations, meaningful conversations about how the nhs needs to adapt and change, and if necessary that means taking on some of the best did —— vested interested which is what west is treating is saying, then they are prepared to do it, and i think it is a brave start and an interesting one and it should pick the went up steve baker the current health secretary.- pick the went up steve baker the current health secretary. when it comes to the _ current health secretary. when it comes to the express, _ current health secretary. when it comes to the express, nigel, - current health secretary. when it l comes to the express, nigel, again with that the football on the image there, but in terms of their focus, they are talking about the strikes that are potentially happening, depending on what happens with the royal college of nursing, but the strikes contention e—potentially costing £4 billion, took us through the rest of the article. the express line on this — the rest of the article. the express line on this is _ the rest of the article. the express line on this is that _ the rest of the article. the express line on this is that labour- the rest of the article. the express line on this is that labour are - line on this is that labour are worried — line on this is that labour are worried this will cost them the next election _
