bohby— healing him as a hero of football. bobby moore said pele was his friend as was the greatest offender i ever played against. he said that when bobby moore died, that is one heck of a tribute. the thought of the day is everything your favourite football or dead, pele did it first. let's go on and look at the telegraph some of the stories here. minister is to look at the new covid that travel curbs, entry restrictions for chinese tourists are under review.— restrictions for chinese tourists are under review. yes, i think some viewers may — are under review. yes, i think some viewers may well — are under review. yes, i think some viewers may well be _ are under review. yes, i think some viewers may well be wondering - are under review. yes, i think some viewers may well be wondering if i are under review. yes, i think some| viewers may well be wondering if we suddenly lurched back to the early stage of 2020, when this sort of debate and discussion was sort of starting to bubble away. i think the fact of this, you know, we are through the pandemic, substantively, and china has been reeling from its attempt to try to eliminate covid in attempt to try to eliminate covid in a sense that the policy crumbles committee infections are now through the roof, and, of course, because travel is free again, we have china,

the world's largest source of outbound tourism, sending the planes, of course them around the world in which span many of the passengers could have been found to be testing positive for covid. the debate comes into play, what do other countries do? the us has decided it's going to be testing passengers on arrival. italy i think has been doing this. they have been finding no new strains, but nonetheless, lots of positive tests in the eu has been in a fevered debate about what it is going to do. so obviously depression eyeballs on the uk. certainly critics have previously been saying that the uk was maybe too slow and they were faxing around in the early stages of the pandemic. at this time, of course, rishi sunak is someone who has made clear before hand that he has made clear before hand that he has been against things like lockdown. he is not one doing kneejerk responses. he will be decisive, whatever it is, and he's learned the lessons this is where we

get to a really interesting point to the government sending measures under review, but what we know is, to be clear, what is being discussed here by tests, it's not knockdowns or anything else, not travel bands, per se, or anything else, not travel bands, perse, it's or anything else, not travel bands, per se, it's very much testing at the moment and that makes sense because you want to know what you are dealing with, you don't want to be flying blind. bud are dealing with, you don't want to be flying blind-— are dealing with, you don't want to be flying blind. and the reason that china is seeing _ be flying blind. and the reason that china is seeing such _ be flying blind. and the reason that china is seeing such an _ be flying blind. and the reason that china is seeing such an increase - be flying blind. and the reason that china is seeing such an increase in l china is seeing such an increase in cases is because they have stepped away from that draconian 0—tolerance policy, zero covid, which saw extraordinary measures taken, if anybody were to be found to be positive. anybody were to be found to be ositive. ~ , ,., , anybody were to be found to be ositive. ~ , , , positive. absolutely. so this response — positive. absolutely. so this response was _ positive. absolutely. so this response was very - positive. absolutely. so this response was very much - positive. absolutely. so this response was very much off| positive. absolutely. so this . response was very much off the positive. absolutely. so this - response was very much off the back of huge _ response was very much off the back of huge protests that we were seeing across _ of huge protests that we were seeing across the _ of huge protests that we were seeing across the country on a level not seen _ across the country on a level not seen for— across the country on a level not seen for decades. they will bow to public— seen for decades. they will bow to public pressure to avoid being

focus on was police recruitment because of the amount that that had dwindled during the previous ten years or nine years of conservative led government. so the newspaper reports that more than 1800 recruits hired under the former prime minister's pledge have already resigned. that's obvious in a very short space of time less than just over three years since that election, probably coming at a time of the country, a lot of focus on crime at the moment particularly given violent crime and the stabbings that we have about of the last few days, we know it is an issue that rishi sunak is keen to appear tough on but what labour thinks they can exploit and shove the government to appear soft on. quite awkward statistics for the government particularly as rishi sunak knows the best chance that he has, he's been told by conservative mps, is to show that he is delivering on the 2019 conservative manifesto while this appears to show

that despite endeavours to deliver it, it isn't working because police officers being hired under this pledge are quitting. brute officers being hired under this pledge are quitting.— officers being hired under this pledge are quitting. we don't know wh et, pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet. do — pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet. do we? — pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet. do we? l _ pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet, do we? i think _ pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet, do we? i think that - pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet, do we? i think that is - pledge are quitting. we don't know why yet, do we? i think that is the | why yet, do we? i think that is the serious question _ why yet, do we? i think that is the serious question to _ why yet, do we? i think that is the serious question to be _ why yet, do we? i think that is the serious question to be asked - why yet, do we? i think that is the serious question to be asked in . serious question to be asked in whitehall about this. the reasons in the front page aren't clear quite yet, sure, in the long and short of it, people will come out and say things like, well, yes, we pledged this back in 2019, but covid wasn't on the manifesto. there will be complications that will have emerged, but at the same time, look, you know, for manifestos, 2024 is not very far away. people will work out what kind of material differences were made for them on the ground, they want to see and were promised more bodies on the beach. they are working overtime to try to deliver this and make sure that they can feel like it's a far better off. at the end of the day, thatis better off. at the end of the day, that is what levelling up is meant to be about.
