let's start with the sunday telegraph. ministers blueprint to avoid new lockdown.ld mean, iain, shielding forsome groups who have onlyjust had to go ahead to go out. that's right. i mean, just looking at... the headline, blueprint to avoid a new lockdown, i think there's a word that's missing there, which is avoiding a new national lockdown, because we already seen what the prime minister announced yesterday in the northwest and other parts of the country, that there are limited forms of lockdown that are starting to be rolled out. they're clearly concerned the r number is starting to move up again, and this piece sort of unpacks a strategy by the government took, yeah, put shielding backin government took, yeah, put shielding back in place, really, really quickly. i'm hoping to go and see my own parents quite soon. i'm not seen them for six months. central london lockdown. that's reported in some of the other newspapers as well. the plain fact is that the idea that this is over by christmas is, looks like it is pretty much pie in the sky now. it is a difficult bal

daily telegraph. to work from home, and that is a radical shift, in the way that people work? good and bad, obviously. what do you think? you are right. it is a radical shift, and i think we are going to hopefully see a lot of big shifts. one of the things that lockdown is it has made a lot of people reassess a lot of things about how we live, how we work, how we socialise and how we holiday, so i think this move is encouraging in terms of the flexibility that it allows, it is worth pointing out that a lot of people working from home is not a delight. people are living in shared accommodation or just don't have that much space, working from home can be not that great mentally and maybe not even that great in terms of the health and sitting in cramped conditions and sitting in cramped conditions and so on, but i think that the radical shift is great and i think we might see more radical shifts. for instance, a four—day week is something that is getting a lot of u pta ke something that is getting a lot

so, a story that brokejust a few with the telegraph.hat broke just a few hours ago, really, which is another change to the travel corridor‘s list as they are calling it, so, basically commits the countries that if you travel to them, when you come back, you will have to now quarantine for two weeks. let's start with you, john, the daily telegraph is actually presenting the positive story out of this which is that portugal, very popular tourist destination for people here in the uk is now out of the quarantine. that is good news, but it's a bit late in the day, as did, because kids are going back to school in a few days‘ time, most would like to go in august, i'm sure it's lovely in september, i'm sure i've been there in september and it is lovely, but it's a bit late in the day for most people, but then i do have to sympathise with governments, what can they do? they see this spike in cases in countries around the world like croatia which we will come to ina minute, like croatia which we will come to in a minute, they have to act, and w

the telegraph carries a picture of the destruction caused by the explosion in beirut. its main story is a warning from head teachers over exam grading systems put in place as a result of the pandemic. the metro reports on a campaign, launched by the widow of pc andrew harper, for those who kill police officers to be jailed for life. the guardian says there's criticism, by charities, architects and planning officials, of plans to fast—track the construction of homes in england. the new york times reports that as covid—19 spreads around the world, other diseases, such as tb, are making a comeback. and the japan times says there's criticism of prime minister shinzo abe, amid rising coronavirus infections in the country. so let's begin. it's great to see you as always. we are going to start with the eye which has the extraordinary picture from beirut. of what it describes as a lost city. the absolute doesn't station anna, that took place following that absolutely huge explosion. this is what is left. that's right. throughout the day we are seeing more and more details emer

anger over possible tax increases also makes the front page of the telegraph, which says tory mps andleaders "reacted with horror" to news of a potential rise in corporation tax. the daily mirror, meanwhile, turns its attention to the reopening of schools later this week — which it brands the "biggest test yet". the paper hears from teachers: according to a survey, a majority of them think it'll be impossible. the guardian says the costs of measures to enforce safety in schools are stretching their budgets to "breaking point". and the daily star brings news of a "polar plunge" that has the daily mail says there's been new band in plastic, the taxis to be increased in plastic bags to which it says a victory for its campaign against the party back. —— plastic bag. and the daily star brings news of a "polar plunge" that has inflicted britons to their coldest august bank holiday for decades. those of course who are having a bank holiday. let's begin with the front of the express. daisy, uproar over tax raid on pensions. of course, we always know when there is a budget or mini budget or em

in this piece on the front page of my paper, the telegraph, talks about one person who, having telegraphed let's move onto the guardian, you touched on this, poorest hit ha rd est by a—level you touched on this, poorest hit hardest by a—level results. but it says that britain's equality watchdog has said it will intervene in this controversy. so in what way might they get involved? this is a really important intervention, because there is huge inequalities within our education system, but this shows those inequalities have been made worse by this algorithm, so you saw at the very top and, for those going to private school, the increase in the numbers getting a a—star. it is really important that the equalities watchdog comes in and looks at the algorithm, the decisions made, because this is ultimately people's lives, and i think the story is a really important one to demonstrate the inequalities existing, and also this thing about the poorest young people that have seen a downgrade, most likely to have seen a downgrade, and my old college, they also had downgrades. that could be any one of

we will start with the daily telegraph. let's start with you christopher since it is your paper.ch is on quite a lot of the papers and it was the sts well. this full controversy over the a—level results. —— as it was the case as well. this is the mess caused by covid—i9, when children were told not to come back to school after late march. now we are left with having the system trying to guess what exam was grades they would have got in we have an algorithm trying to work out whether it's a fair reflection of what they would normally get and within that you have some really sad stories of stu d e nts have some really sad stories of students who would never get a d being given an d because previous stu d e nts being given an d because previous students in the same you're dead to get them or below that. so there is a real sadness. i'm struck by the photograph of page one of my paper, normally it's a day of young men and women smiling and laughing and being happy but instead you have this bewildered look of two young ladies in masks and another one talking to them. they look utterly

nobody is going anywhere according to the daily telegraph.g to the daily telegraph. borisjohnson isn't speaking publicly, but according to the daily telegraph, the pm is defying tory calls for an autumn reshuffle. there may be a mini change, but a full reset won't happen until the new year, pauly. all these anonymous voices, one mp or senior mp saying that there's a sense the government has lost its grip. and again, from tory supporting paper. absolutely. they won the election in december, 80 seat victory, big election, let's charge ahead. brexit is still not really done, and a massive scaling up really done, and a massive scaling up of customs workers still need to be done, still repurpose seeing the motorways down to dover. not their fault, a global pandemic hits. but yes their fault, they've made a hash of dealing with it. so they've lost all the momentum they had in december of all the momentum they had in decemberof being a all the momentum they had in december of being a fresh, ambitious government... i must say, the government... i mus

susan: you mentioned the telegraph.elegraph and photography were becoming technologies that were widely used in society. what impact they have on the coverage of the lincoln administration? harold: i'm glad you asked because one of the themes of my book is how presidents have used technology to their advantage, and lincoln, once the government got control of the telegraph, immediately sensed its utility. he would write letters to critics and make sure they were published in newspapers and distributed by telegraph to the west, meaning illinois in those days. late in the war when he spent , much of the last three weeks of his life at the front during grant's last push against lee in virginia, he sent dispatches us tentatively to the secretary of war describing the siege that was then printed on front pages of newspapers as if he had become not only the commander-in-chief but military correspondent in chief. lincoln, of course, did make brilliant use of the telegraph for rapidfire communication of his opinions and reports

staying with the sunday telegraph, you can't tweet what you like, bbc stars to be told.e told that, we have producer guidelines which are very helpful, ros, in reining us in, but there have been accusations that some journalists, but there have been accusations that somejournalists, particular but there have been accusations that some journalists, particular stars, have overstepped the mark. well, according to the telegraph, tim davie, the new director—general of the bbc, who hasjust taken over from lord hall, has been looking at an internal review by richard sambrook and is concerned that may be some of the freelance presenters, some of the stars who are freelancing, have been tweeting messages that betray some kind of bias. there was a big complaint over the last couple of years, i think, against what was considered to be anti brexit bias by the bbc. i am not convinced about that, i think a lot of people who didn't want to brexit felt that the bbc was being inadequately critical. for my money, i think the bbc got it mostly right, but the idea that journalists who are m

daily telegraph, testing could and the quarantine roulette. talking about, rachel? it's about safe scientists advising ministers ahead of holiday—makers coming back from france that reckless countries should be tested to and what they called the quarantine roulette. in other words, those coming back from this country should get a test instead of having to stay home for two weeks. i think there is a few things going on here. it is certainly true that the governments test and trace scheme is not up to speed. but that is about to mastic test and trace. so the idea of opening up yourself, your country to risk of infection from other countries when your own rate of infection is already so high, or even when it's low, the idea of doing that when you have a test entry system that is not working effectively, so it's not able to squash outbreaks as they occur, that's where the risk is. that's where the government negligence is in my view. some of these scientists are saying that the government should put a test and trace system in place for people comi

the telegraph as a form of technology. before the telegraph, there was a certain amount of wiggle room in congress if you said something you were sorry, you said or did something, you could rush over to the newspaper office or go to the reporter and change what you said a little bit. there was wiggle room and you -- it was easier i think to keep things away from the public eye because there was a more limited number of reporters in washington. the telegraph fundamentally changes everything, that it takes away the wiggle room. there's, you know, 45 minutes and everybody knows about something. all of a sudden there are all of these reporters in washington from all over the nation who can travel that far distance, stay there and telegraph back home what it is they're seeing. so congress, congressmen lose control of the spin and if you think about congress ideally speaking is supposed to be an ongoing conversation between the public and their representatives in one way or another. public says what they want. representatives re

with me are madeline grant, deputy comment editor at the daily telegraph, and the political commentatormer director of communications for the labour party, lance price. welcome back to you both. let's have a look at what's already in. according to the metro, pupil power in the uk has forced the government into a u—turn on a—level and gcse grading, after education secretary gavin williamson declared there would be "no change and no u—turn". the daily express says the prime minister told the education secretary to scrap the algorithm for this summer's exams results, following the outcry. the daily mirror describes it as another government "screeching" u—turn, but note that education secretary reamins in his job. according to the daily telegraph, gavin williamson is blaming the exam regulator quual for the exam results chaos. we will look at that in a bit more detail. the i describes how some students, parents and teachers are breathing a sigh of relief after days of confusion, while the times reports that tens of thousands of pupils are still facing doubt over their futures as universitie

let's move on to the daily telegraph. go back to work or risk losing yourjob. how borisjohnson will be launching a major drive to get britain back to the office as minister is one that working from home make people more vulnerable to being sacked. a lot of people have got used to working from home and that's a change we have seenin home and that's a change we have seen in the last few months. absolutely. there is a big distinction where jobs where they are needed to be done in person or where they did need to get back fairly soon as soon as it was safe and feasible to do so. the big divide is over office workers who, perhaps reasonably could say, what would i be doing at a desk in the middle of the city that i can't be doing at home, but this story, it's a real new kind of level that they are willing to take this debate too. it's quite a lot stronger now to say, you are at risk of being sacked and then the briefings that were happening before which were focused on saving the economy and the pm has realised people don't care that much about whether cafe is in ci

the sunday telegraph, massive supporter of pack six, so not the focus of this piece.le feel it is quite a strange thing to be focusing on, afew quite a strange thing to be focusing on, a few people making it, including a pregnant woman, who made it across the channel in a dinghy, absolute desperation that must take to put your own life let alone your child's life in danger like that. so, it does feel like a bit of a distraction when we have this extraordinary situation where we have this terrifying pandemic and on top of that all of the effect on the economy that would have, to focus on a few people and to talk about deploying royal navy boats and spotter planes as priti patel has done here, it seems quite an extreme reaction to what is actually a very small number of people. james, your view on that? £30 million, should we be paying that to the french?|j absolutely be paying that to the french?” absolutely agree with rosamund and it shames me anyway, one of the great thing is traditionally about this country has been its tolerance, compassion, its willingness and ind

ok, let's go to the sunday telegraph.lighting the plight of migrants who are being rescued day after day from these very small vessels on these very perilous journeys. you can imagine that some people will be quite cynical of this exercise, celebrity graffiti artists funds to do good in boat to go into the mediterranean, but there is a very serious underlying problem as you mentioned, which is that these desperate people are making these voyages desperate people are making these voyages in very dangerous conditions and the fundamental problem is, the reason why this boat is there, being funded to do this mission, is the european government in the mediterranean are not doing the job of rescuing these boats. there is a monetary plaint looking for migrant vessels in distress, they said they sent a message saying one vessel was in trouble and none of the european governments, who run their own fleets supposedly to try and help these vessels responded, and it was banksy's boat that actually came to the rescue of this stressed

we will start with the daily telegraph. this rather scary thought ofa telegraph.nd lockdown. jason, how possible do you think this is? this is the government‘s worst nightmare. i think it they are reluctant to do this. primarily because the consequences for the economy. right at the beginning, they‘ve had to do this very difficult balancing act between putting public health first and then putting the economic health second. and you have seen in the last three or four weeks have become less, not less concerned about public health but more concerned about the economic consequences of a second, well first lockdown, a second, well first lockdown, a second lockdown and what that will entail book one thing i would caution is these are numbers from the government scientific advisory group sage. and they do say there is some a high degree of uncertainty about the figures. in the latest r rate. there are three parts of england, london, the southwest in the northwest where it is floating between 0.8 and 1.1. anything over one is where we get worried for rise exponentially.

let's start with uk tourists left in the dark by the holiday quarantine on the daily telegraph.t in the dark in these decisions are two opaque? the trouble is these decisions are quite late. there are holiday—makers in france as we speak who probably have not gone to france had they known that when they come home they would likely face 14 days of quarantine. and this is a terrible problem about this pandemic because here is a government doing everything it possibly can not to have another spike in the autumn or a spike at the end of august when people come home from holiday. and they are watching how these countries, many of them because they have bid invaded and must pay by holiday—makers. the invention, the all right has gone up and the coronavirus illnesses have gone up. and so they are now saying if you wa nt to and so they are now saying if you want to go to france, and you might be going tomorrow, he probably will have books for yourself and your family, you may well have to do quarantine. i don't think it has been hit on the dot totally they had to come back from quaranti

in the same breath we just looked at the daily telegraph, sorry, sunday telegraph, when they are suggestinghielded her —— who should not be allowed out at all. if in two weeks we are going to say they should go back in, why? i see they are not testing all the elderly that have been put back into ca re elderly that have been put back into care homes, that's another promise that has gone by the by, and these are all part of that very vulnerable group. i think at the end of the day what we come back to is that we all have to make decisions for ourselves. we have to use what we are told as a form of guidance. we have to decide where our consciences are in terms of balancing what we believe and what we think will help others and that's all you can do. half the shops, people are not wearing masks, and the other half they are, and i don't go into the ones where they are not wearing masks. final comment before we move onto the football, seeing what's happened with spain, some people choose not to bother going anywhere and accept that this year is the time for a holiday. —— is not the time for a hol

the front page of the daily telegraph, let's start there.r masks in schools after the u—turn. wright, who wants to take off with this. what do you make of it was yellow it is another u—turn by the government because yesterday, downing street they were not reviewing this, saying that despite scotland's thing that they were taking a review as to whether facemasks would be worn by people in secondary schools when in the communal areas. today, scotland said that plan was going to come into force and pupils will have to do that. late this evening, they have said that pupils will have to wear masks in communal areas and secondary schools, but only in areas where there is a local lockdown. i think as we discussed, actually, this is very confusing for parents and at a this is very confusing for parents and ata time this is very confusing for parents and - at a time when the and pupils at a time when the government - needs and pupils at a time when the government- needs to get this

getting back to a new normal because of coronavirus is the lead in the telegraph.says borisjohnson is to launch a campaign to convince britons to return to the office. the times also leads on the prime minister's plans saying downing street wants to make it clear that going back to work is safe. meanwhile, back to school is the focus of the daily mirror. it says it's spoken to head teachers across england who insist they will be ready when schools open. immigration is the lead in the independent. it says since the start of the pandemic britain has not taken in any refugees who are facing persecution and war via its resettlement scheme. the daily mail's splash claims that the men convicted over the death of pc andrew harper have received more than 400,000 pounds in legal aid. over on the front of the guardian, it's exclusive. it claims the number of people who have died from coronavirus in individual care homes is being kept a secret for commercial reasons. and finally, to the express, which leads on brexit and says britain is another step closer to leaving the eu w

according to the sunday telegraph, public health england is to be scrapped and replaced by a new bodyly next week, specifically designed to protect the country against a pandemic. the daily mail says priti patel is embroiled in a row to say that... the sunday people predicts the country won't recover from the current recession till 2023. let's

starting with the pandemic here in the uk, the daily telegraph warns of a second lockdown, as the r—rateises for the first time since restrictions were lifted. since the uk lifted portugal from its quarnatine list, the i reports on the ‘last minute dash‘ to the country for british tourists seeking a ‘sunshine break‘. following the exam result controversy in england. the guardian reports that the boss of quual has threatened to quit — unless the education secretary backs the exams regulator on his u—turn in grading. elsewhere, the financial times says russia's opposition leader, alexei navalny, is ready to be air—lifted to a hospital in germany after a suspected poisoning. turning to uk politics, the express says tory mps have urged brussels to ‘wake up to the threat of a no—deal brexit, after trade talks came to a halt‘. and the daily mirror reports that manchester united captain, harry mcguire, is spending a ‘second night behind bars‘ following his arrest in greece.

let us go to our next page, which is the front page of the daily telegraph.it has done? we know it's damage the government, but to the body itself, the regulator? i have to say, for most people, quual is a thing that sits... it's on top of the letter, but not something people pay attention to. they see it as the role of the government to sort the exa m role of the government to sort the exam systems. the government has the power to do what it wants with quual within sort of regulator rebounds. so i don't think as a body, the public will look at it and think this needs to be ripped up and started again. whether that view has come stronger amongst conservatives, many have their legacy within the department for education is a different question. could we see in two years time the sort of moves with public health england. time will tell us. yasmin, let's turn to the daily mail. attention now is very firmly turned to thursday, and these up coming gcse results. they should be sorting this out, and they should hand it back to the teachers. why is this country, why i

let's move onto the daily telegraph. we've all been told to lose weight.ic stimulus, eat out to out. would you like economics and the list serve with that as well? that is a huge burger. jack. it is a huge burger. you can also get the discounts on green salads and fruits and things like that. although how many people are doing that remains to be seen. it does feel, it was a well—received idea when veggies soon act announces the last month that you'd be able to get big discounts on dining out through the month of august on days when people often don't eat out, monday, tuesdays and wednesdays. it was well received by the sec. it was an imaginative idea by the treasury to encourage people to start going out again. problem is, in the weeks that have preceded sense that announcement we've seen the virus coming back in this country, for the lockdown, new quarantine announcements and that optimism has suddenly drifted away. we've also seen borisjohnson touting as all that we need to lose weight was up suddenly there's announcement now but it's finally kicking in

let's finish with the sunday telegraph.e worried about going anywhere. there was a twitter amounts meant to say your —— ministers are putting pressure on the government to not add any more countries into the quarantine list. there are growing fears that turkey might be the next country to be added because there has been a significant increase in covid cases they are. we saw it happen with france in the last 24 hours, i think there also some concerns hours, i think there also some concerns about greece. greece and turkey are popular holiday destinations for brits that go abroad. there's a lot of uncertainty around, but in the end, it's got to be about public health. these are very difficult decisions to take, notjust for the very difficult decisions to take, not just for the government, very difficult decisions to take, notjust for the government, but very difficult decisions to take, not just for the government, but for families who desperately want to go on holiday. but maybe this is the year when you say, "we can't do it.

the daily telegraph claims that some quual board members want to ditch the algorithm, putting them at the education secretary gavin williamson, who supports it the guardian reports on the criticism from both conservative and labour mps, with headteachers calling for a scotland—style solution of using teachers‘ assessments. the daily mail says the prime minister is facing calls to delay this thursday's gcse results by two weeks, so as to avoid a repeat and allow those grades to be revised the times says borisjohnson is being warned the times says boris johnson is being warned by mps in his own party that they will go on the warpath unless there is a satisfactory solution to the a—level fiasco. the financial times says the government is considering state—backed loans for companies in debt, as a way of rescuing the high street. so, let's begin. let's start off, yasmin and andy, we start with the metro. yasmin, do you wa nt to start with the metro. yasmin, do you want to kick us off, people power? yes, what can one say? ijust feel so sorry yes, what can one say? ijust feel so sorry for yo

let's kick off with the telegraph. a new lockdown, including enhanced shielding, tighter local measures, sealing off the capital, as i mentioned. quite a long rest. ministers and officials are considering a range of options, which are various methods to try and avoid a spike. one of those is prolonged shielding. remember that... adding to that, also the idea of a local lockdown with the entirety of london. we have already seen lockdowns across the uk, but because we see beethoven's action rising in recent weeks, i think lots of people in government —— the rate of people in government —— the rate of infection. it is coming up the track quicker than people hoped, which is why they are looking at things to avoid a national lockdown. things i not going really according to plan, although it is hired to know with coronavirus what exactly the plan is. but infections are rising, and it —— borisjohnson‘s hoped to fire up the economy is proving difficult. one thing that defined borisjohnson's politics is a kind of not really tel

according to the daily telegraph, gavin williamson is blaming the exam regulator for the exam resultsbes how some students, parents and teachers are breathing a sigh of relief after days of confusion. while the daily mail suggests the story is worthy of laurel and hardy — calling it ‘another fine mess.‘ is blaming the exam regulator for the exam results chaos. the ‘i' describes how some students, parents and teachers are breathing a sigh of relief after days of confusion. while the daily mail suggests the story is worthy of laurel and hardy — calling it ‘another fine mess.‘ so, let‘s begin. shall we start with the express? obviously, for the british papers, it is all about the u—turn on the results. victory for common sense and exams fiasco. the express, there is nothing good for the government in any of these headlines, is there? no, there really isn‘t you might argue that the express headline acknowledges some common sense is finally made itself clear but the u—turn is very much the right move but it was far too long coming. it is not as of the government enough plenty of warning th

to the daily telegraph.es of various university group saying they've asked for more cash but they would actually say if they received it yet because it will needed to scale up for these numbers, especially in disciplines like medicine, chemistry and things like that. yes. universities are asking for more cash. £740 million is being lobbied about. what they are saying is that in covid—i9 times, they need more money because they have to socially distant students, the desk has to be separated in lives and in and set in our rooms, and they need to think about all of that. i think it must be brought to mind that universities are cash—strapped at the moment. this is not the first time they ask for money. they asked for a big bailout earlier this year and they were turned down, so in a sense that what has happened, this crisis now has given them some leverage to go back and really pressed a case because the government needs them right now to mop up the students. 55,000 students as we understand who were given the w

the daily telegraph says mr williamson's allies said he had the support of the prime minister and hitl mps. one said as a former chief whippy would always have enemies. how problematic will this be for him? it's a huge scandal. a lot of people, young people may not get into universities that they wanted to or do the things that they wanted to or do the things that they wanted to or do the things that they wanted to in their future and there needs to be some accountability. when you look like i said, this happened in scotland, we could see this coming and at least nicola sturgeon stood up in scotland and said ok we are listening, we are going to make this u—turn and we're sorry. what we heard today from gavin and boris johnson was that to dig themselves in and say no, this is the way to do it. and it's interesting as guardian article talking about the equalities watchdog stepping in because this disparity between what's happened in private schools versus state codes is not going to sit well with a lot of people. 4.7% increase in the numberof of people. 4.7% increase in the number of pe
