"au revoir qatar" says the sunday express, as england are knocked out of the world cup by france. world cup agony on the mirror front page, showing captain harry kane after that missed second penalty.

another picture after that miss in the sun on sunday — "harry's pain" the headline there. and the strike itself stretched across the sunday times, as england now prepare to head home. manager gareth southgate consoling his captain on the front of the sunday telegraph. elsewhere the paper reports that labour plans to "take on" health unions and quotes shadow health secretary wes streeting saying the nhs must "reform or die". a similar mix on the front of the observer too. there's harry kane and gareth southgate again, with the headline "heartbreak for harry". elsewhere the paper claims that health unions could suspend christmas strikes, if the government open "serious discussions" about pay. and a final football front page — the sunday people goes with "qatar heroes for a brave england squad". let's kick off, excuse the pun. welcome back to you both, jo and

nigel dodds up in niger, let's kick off with you. —— nigel, let's kick off with you. —— nigel, let's kick off with you. the image a painful one to relive. it is painful. i think the sunday times is actually rather generous, in fact to the england team. and what they were saying about tonight's match is it is a closely matched a nerve jangling affair, and i think that is absolutely right. it is exactly what it was. when harry kane equalised with that penalty, you thought, we are on our way. we may even be able to do this one. and of course, it was heartbreaking when he missed a penalty which everyone thought he would get. but that is at the way it goes. and it is unfortunate, we are out of the competition no, we have to look forward now to 2026.—

competition no, we have to look forward now to 2026. 2026, yes. i'm sure a lot of — forward now to 2026. 2026, yes. i'm sure a lot of consoling _ forward now to 2026. 2026, yes. i'm sure a lot of consoling will— forward now to 2026. 2026, yes. i'm sure a lot of consoling will be - sure a lot of consoling will be going on in terms for the england fans and a lot of consoling for harry kane. and that is what the sunday mirror is focusing in on, lie on hearts heartbroken. it is heartbreaking _ on hearts heartbroken. it is heartbreaking because you watch a football _ heartbreaking because you watch a football match when you're watching your local _ football match when you're watching your local team are a premier league club england or whatever nationality you happen to support and you always hope. _ you happen to support and you always hope. but _ you happen to support and you always hope, but somebody has got to win and at _ hope, but somebody has got to win and at this— hope, but somebody has got to win and at this time it wasn't us. i mean. — and at this time it wasn't us. i mean. i— and at this time it wasn't us. i mean. i do _ and at this time it wasn't us. i mean, i do think they are a team that had — mean, i do think they are a team that had acquitted themselves very well. that had acquitted themselves very welt and _ that had acquitted themselves very well. and there is a lovely, just to id well. and there is a lovely, just to go back— well. and there is a lovely, just to go back to — well. and there is a lovely, just to go back to the sunday times briefly, josh clancy has written — times briefly, josh clancy has written that story says" southgate's england _ written that story says" southgate's england had given us competence,

first of all, that is to be welcomed, the idea that there might be some movement on this because northern ireland has been the biggest problem with brexit since we left europe. but the argument is this that the european research group, the right—wingers who are suspicious of any kind of delay when it comes to brexit, they are obviously going to be worried that may be rishi sunak is thinking of bringing back at this sort of swiss style deal that they were talking about a few weeks ago. i do think the solution to northern ireland will be some kind of single market agreement. that does not mean it has to be like switzerland, they took 30 years to get theirs, about 130 separate agreements with europe, it would be a bespoke agreement for the uk. the question, obviously, is that

we do have some red lines and that will certainly mean no freedom of movement, it will also mean that the european court ofjustice could have no jurisdiction. european court ofjustice could have nojurisdiction. i don't know whether any of those things are possible, but every negotiation is going on, at least it is worth exploring. going on, at least it is worth “plating-— going on, at least it is worth exlorin. �* , ., ., ., , exploring. and these negotiations, jo, exploring. and these negotiations, jo. potentially _ exploring. and these negotiations, jo, potentially they _ exploring. and these negotiations, jo, potentially they have _ exploring. and these negotiations, jo, potentially they have until - jo, potentially they have until valentines day of next year in order to make it movement. but touched upon the suspicions of the erg, as the paper puts it, but rishi sunak is trying to appease them by bringing in a former aide in terms of advising him.— bringing in a former aide in terms of advising him. oliver lewis, who was deputy _ of advising him. oliver lewis, who was deputy to _ of advising him. oliver lewis, who was deputy to lord _ of advising him. oliver lewis, who was deputy to lord frost. - of advising him. oliver lewis, who was deputy to lord frost. he - of advising him. oliver lewis, who was deputy to lord frost. he has i was deputy to lord frost. he has come _ was deputy to lord frost. he has come back, — was deputy to lord frost. he has come back, apparently, is an unpaid negotiator— come back, apparently, is an unpaid negotiator and middleman between rishi sunak and at the erg, there is a group— rishi sunak and at the erg, there is a group of— rishi sunak and at the erg, there is a group of hardline brexiteers

contentious as anyone between northern ireland and the south of which the good friday agreement hinges on, and that has been the problem all the way through. and i think that europe wants to solve this one as much as we do, they don't want to go back to any kind of violence in northern ireland, but it is a difficult one. and that is why i mention that the single market idea. i'm not suggesting that is the final solution, idea. i'm not suggesting that is the finalsolution, but idea. i'm not suggesting that is the final solution, but it is one worth kind of exploding. the final solution, but it is one worth kind of exploding.— kind of exploding. the paper is sa in: kind of exploding. the paper is saying that _ kind of exploding. the paper is saying that there _ kind of exploding. the paper is saying that there is _ kind of exploding. the paper is saying that there is a _ kind of exploding. the paper is saying that there is a deadline | kind of exploding. the paper is i saying that there is a deadline of valentines day in order to get these latest round of negotiations the head of the 25th anniversary of the good friday agreement in april, so important to hit that deadline. let's move on. the mail on sunday, the scottish mail on sunday, harry and meghan are on the front cover of this. it is obviously in reference to the netflix documentary, the netflix

programme, howeveryou netflix documentary, the netflix programme, however you want to describe it, but this is a group of people, and i don't know if they are listed, if we have the name of them, pursing what, jo? listed, if we have the name of them, pursing what. jo?— pursing what, jo? yes, they think this a-rou pursing what, jo? yes, they think this group of— pursing what, jo? yes, they think this group of eminent _ pursing what, jo? yes, they think this group of eminent people - pursing what, jo? yes, they think this group of eminent people are | this group of eminent people are saying _ this group of eminent people are saying that harry and meghan should not conre _ saying that harry and meghan should not come to the coronation. there is a group _ not come to the coronation. there is a group includes iain duncan smith, former— a group includes iain duncan smith, fornrer tory— a group includes iain duncan smith, former tory leader, still a tory mp, david _ former tory leader, still a tory mp, david mellor, former culture secretary, lady antonia fraser, and a variety— secretary, lady antonia fraser, and a variety of— secretary, lady antonia fraser, and a variety of other people who lrasically— a variety of other people who basically say that harry and meghan try basically say that harry and meghan by doing _ basically say that harry and meghan by doing this netflix deal had a really— by doing this netflix deal had a really burnt their bridges and the concern — really burnt their bridges and the concern is — really burnt their bridges and the concern is that if they do turn up to the _ concern is that if they do turn up to the coronation next may, that the focus _ to the coronation next may, that the focus will— to the coronation next may, that the focus will be on them instead of on kin- focus will be on them instead of on king charles and the queen consort, camilla _ king charles and the queen consort, camilla it _ king charles and the queen consort, camilla it is— king charles and the queen consort, camilla. it is quite within the king's— camilla. it is quite within the king's remit to not invite them. i

their bridges with this country. and there are things that were offensive and probably unnecessary, meghan marking the queen over curtsying to her, i think that would give offence. —— meghan mocking the queen. i think the one aspires the family are concerned, allowing a clip of the controversial panorama interview with his mother being shown only netflix documentary, which is against the express wishes of his brother prince william has said it should never be shown again. i think things like that feel as though he was taunting the royal family and, as i sense, by undermining the monarchy, taunting the rest of us. so i think a lot of people will feel happy if they do stay away. we will move on. i'm sure we will.

as the next episode struck and i'm sure we will get more. the paper is obviously covering less intensively. let's move on to a final paper, the sunday telegraph, £7 billion a spending cut on work projects, mps are calling onjeremy hunt, the chancellor to cut spending —— on woke projects. what are these projects question isn't it funny how woke has suddenly become a word that is used as a shorthand for everything that somebody doesn't like? , , everything that somebody doesn't like? ,,,.,,. ., , like? this is basically equality, diversity and — like? this is basically equality, diversity and inclusion - like? this is basically equality, diversity and inclusion roles, i like? this is basically equality, - diversity and inclusion roles, which are quite _ diversity and inclusion roles, which are quite common across local authorities, quite large organisations. and this group of mps, _ organisations. and this group of mps, conservative way forward group, say this— mps, conservative way forward group, say this is— mps, conservative way forward group, say this is a _ mps, conservative way forward group, say this is a good way to save public— say this is a good way to save public money. it would seem to me that it _ public money. it would seem to me that it is _ public money. it would seem to me that it is very easy and rather lazy to say— that it is very easy and rather lazy to say these are woke projects, but given— to say these are woke projects, but given we _ to say these are woke projects, but given we have had report into the
