andrew marr has said it.aid the bbc might be too metropolitan — that's a different thing from centreleft, centreleft is a political position on the spectrum. mark thompson said it was, and the bbc was at its happiest when mr blair was prime minister because the bbc had basically a blaire—ite outlook on the world. it doesn't make them bad people, i share a number of views with mr blair. let's talk about some of the names you've signed up as on—screen talent. alexander phillips, who was ukip�*s head of media for three years then an mep for the brexit party, michelle dupree, a brexit party candidate in 2019. they are hugely talented, doubtless. one thing they have in common there is a distaste for socialism. so just how brexit—y will gb news be? i don't know whether you've caught up with the news... brexit has happened. brexit�*s over. you know what i'm talking about, to what extent will it be — how right—wing will it be? if a number of our presenters were on the brexit side of the argument, so what? 90% of the

he told andrew marr earlier that some activities would need would need restrictions to continue beyond activities safe? now, we've already made them a lot safer, for a lot of people, by the roll—out of the vaccine. but we may also need to have additional measures in place, as i said, social distancing, screens and so on, for those activities that can be made safe. a lot of workplaces can be made safer. a lot of retail, a lot of hospitality can be made safer. for those sort of activities it's difficult to make really safe, i'm thinking of things like nightclubs, large concerts, mass gatherings and so on, that's where the passports come in. whether it's vaccine passports, testing, test negative passports, or even immunity passports that we were talking about a year ago. so, all of this is part of a package of measures designed to make activities safe, as an alternative to stopping us doing them altogether. the transport secretary grant shapps has confirmed that from the 6th of april, lorries visiting england from outside the uk for more than two days will need to take a covid test. drive

speaking to the bbc�*s andrew marr, the education secretary gavin williamson said pupils understood the had to wear them. as someone who has a 16—year—old and a m—year—old, when you speak to them, and speak to all children, they recognise that what we're asking them to do is about notjust keeping them safe, but also their friends, their teachers, the whole school community safe. also their families and the broader community, as well. so, we saw the wearing of the masks in communal areas that wasn't compulsory but was strongly advised. we saw that between september and december, and it worked very, very well. we recognise we're asking people to go a little bit above and beyond, but it's just one of the many measures that we put in place to reduce infection, reduce transmission, reduce the chances of people getting covid. after months out of the classroom, and a year of disrupted learning, many parents in england are spending today helping their children adjust for the return to school tomorrow. earlier, i asked child psychologist dr sarah mundy how parents could best prepare their childr
