so what is the skill of the crisis we are facing here in the telegraph?to italy. we know italy has an extremely good health service. it's still quite mystifying as to why they've had such an enormous number of coronavirus cases and so many deaths. but we've heard doctors, we have heard health professionals, we have heard residents talk about the real effect and it's a warning to us. they are near neighbours, they are on our doorstep, they live like we do. and we've got to listen is about because otherwise as the message says in telegraph, our own health service which is creaking at the seams a nyway which is creaking at the seams anyway is going to be absolutely run into the ground and won't be able to cope if we have a spike in numbers like the italians have had. let's move like the italians have had. let's m ove o nto like the italians have had. let's move onto the mail on sunday and touch a little more on the nhs. the big headline, boris nhs is on the brink. what do you make of what the mail is talking about there?m brink. what do you make of what the

the telegraph suggests this is something which may be earmarked out of this capital expenditure part.ould take that with a little bit of caution at the moment, obviously. 0ne caution at the moment, obviously. one of the interesting things about this budget is that we have learned that they are not going to say, all these projects are going to be funded tomorrow. that was the original plan. they have put it off. not sure why that is. maybe rishi sunak has come in and decided he wa nts to ru n sunak has come in and decided he wants to run his eye over them himself before signing them off. it could be an argument about the fiscal rules and what they can actually fit in there. i do not think we are going to get this bridge, this tunnel, this road funded tomorrow. we will get the broader envelope, which is where this £600 billion is coming from. white back back to the financial times which, as you would expect, the main story is on the budget. massively and borrowing, it says. the treasury is no longer focused on cutting public debt levels with ministers now at the forefront of internation

let's have a look at the sunday telegraph. crisis if we don't stay—at—home. that is the warning from the prime minister, and these figures that we are seeing out of italy, the hundreds of people who are dying there every day, that is the nightmare scenario for this country as well, isn't it? it is the nightmare scenario. of course, what we are now starting to get is coping mechanisms, and also what we should be looking out for, particularly interested me in the sunday telegraph piece was baroness barron, who is the loneliness minister, who is writing in the sunday telegraph today about reaching out to those in isolation. she says that in her own family, there are up to 50 people writing each other, or e—mailing each other long letters every day to lift that sense of isolation. i know my own mother has been on whatsapp talking to everybody who is still alive on herfriends talking to everybody who is still alive on her friends list. i sit on the board of a charity which has just brought out a loneliness report. it isn't actually

well, let's begin, we have claire cohen from the daily telegraph, on the left. that your cat may wander in the windowsill at any and joe tanner on the right, you have a drinks cabinet thatis the right, you have a drinks cabinet that is very impressive, you are being very careful with that. we're going to have a look at the times newspaper. its headline is "pm takes control of driver for virus tests". this increasingly urgent story about a lack of testing. claire, why was borisjohnson not a lack of testing. claire, why was boris johnson not in a lack of testing. claire, why was borisjohnson not in control before, why does he have to take control now? boris johnson taking back control. this comes as the government is facing embarrassment today, having not hit tests a day target that it for itself and that michael gove had been hit over the weekend, it emergence only about 8200 being done, i think that was the total today. some embarrassment there. and michael gove, in the press c0 nfe re nce there. and michael gove, in the press conference today, becoming the firs

let's kick off with the telegraph and this line that the virus can only be delayed.hink this is a statement of the obvious. this is where was a lwa ys of the obvious. this is where was always going to be. governments can't do right from wrong in this. if they go to quickly, to draconian, they are accused of being alarmist and cause economic damage. if they don't and they back off, and people die, they're accused of nasty stuff. they can't win. we're old and have phd in hindsight saying they got it right, they got wrong. on the other hand, i don't think, can somebody tell me why they are all panic buying toilet rolls? i don't know the major symptoms of this bug, but i think it deals with this going this way, not this going that way. on that basis, like toilet rolls? this herd instinct, there is alarmism, but on the other hand, we really have got a responsibility to those who are weaker. orjust being older, and we just have to ensure those people don't get it. moving into the next phase, if i could link it to the budget quickly, i think the one thing the chancellor did

that is certainly the telegraph lo, the end of freedom says the telegraph. three weeks. initially, anyway. three weeks is the period he outlined. obviously could be longer than that, have you got any potential projection of a timescale for this, do you think was yellow i go for this, do you think was yellow i 9° by for this, do you think was yellow i go by what borisjohnson himself had said, he hopes to turn the tide as he put it within 12 weeks, and it‘s not quite clear exactly what he meant, but we understand that by turning the tide he meant coming down from the peak, and reaching the peak and comment on the other side of it. i‘ll be surprised if i these measures lifted but be keeping review. there is a rest of fairly grim news today commit from it what hit home with the revelation that planners have been to visit these centres in london and i sleep colossal 100 acre site looking at as a potential site for a field hospital. it could potentially house hundreds or thousands of coronavirus patients, and the thing that really hit home for me from the address

talk to us about the sunday telegraph. at this nhs pandemic test that was carried out four years ago, the health service failed. people will be looking at this are —— story and thinking, why is this not the lead story? 0h, and thinking, why is this not the lead story? oh, dear, something has gone seriously awry. the nhs said it failed a government estimate and ability to handle a pandemic, but terrifying results were kept from the public. this is an exercise which was taking place in october when 16. and apparently, it was basically a test of how the nhs could cope a major flew out great, but there are similarities with the mortality rate of covid—19. it was basically too sensitive for the findings to be made public because there was a genuine sense of the over the results, and the government knew this three years ago. if this is the case, and the government knew three years ago that the nhs was not to cope with a pandemic, why did we not change things to ensure that we were? it is incredible they didn't tell us because th

this story in the telegraph is focusing oi'i story in the telegraph is focusing on this levelling outectivity issue we've seen cropping up, will it be a bridge or a tunnel between scotland and northern ireland? this is seen asa and northern ireland? this is seen as a big let's come together as a united kingdom post exit piece of infrastructure. it's going to be interesting to see how much clout is given to those more grander and newer project ideas versus things we know are happening already, like giving hsz the boost it needs because it has run short of cash to make sure that gets over the line. we know that will be £100 billion but we don't know if it forms part of the share of the £600 billion overall figure, so lots more to come out. very interesting. ben, do you think, based on what anna hasjust said, that the treasury is keen to get the £600 billion figure out today so it is in our heads... coronavirus budget, everyone knows it will be dominated by that, but at the same time this government as a clear policy agenda of levelling up and they would have wanted to get this out in ad

page of the telegraph, fair of bed shortages in regional ho5pitals.uipment, worries about ventilator5, now it is regional hospital beds. the epicentre, if you like, of the crisis in the uk so far has been in london and there have been big fears about not in a hospital beds and london, but actually what this new report reported in the telegraph is saying is that regional hospitals in rural areas, if they do see a sharp increase in numbers of people by the virus, that seems to be what the modelling is suggesting but of course that may or may not happen. it does, then many of these areas are not going to have, it seems, in are not going to have, it seems, in a hospital beds. some of the worst affected for not having enough beds are places like the midlands, and not enough acute care beds in places like the southwest, so clearly there are different is across the country, and areas with a much bigger proportion of its population who are elderly are more at risk of being pressured in terms of their health services, and that might be areas where hotels might

the telegraph also highlights comments from the british government's chief scientific adviser that theforecast of the impact of the epidemic would see 20,000 deaths in the uk. the financial times reports an internal eu document warning that russian media are using the coronavirus epidemic to try to sow distrust of european governments. it says a deliberate disinformation campaign is currently under way. bloomberg looks at another effect of the virus on the delivery company amazon. it has decided to temporarily suspend restocking from independent retailers in order to prioritise deliveries of what it terms essential products. they include books, by the way. and finally, the german website focus carries the story of the country's big brother contestants, who had been completely isolated from the news for the past month. the programme producers had to bring in a doctor to inform the contestants about the virus pandemic. we normally have a guest in the studio to review the papers with us, but because of the coronavirus outbreak, the bbc has decided to implement a little social distancing.

let's look at another story in the telegraph. this is also on the front page. a kind of exercise carried out four years ago, three day dry drone for a pandemic that was carried out in october 2016, and one of the things it showed apparently was that the nhs really couldn't cope very well with a surge in cases ina cope very well with a surge in cases in a pandemic. i think probably in the longer term some really serious questions are going to have to be asked about our preparedness for this. we had a whole series of respiratory and infections that threaten to be a pandemic like this, and so in a way, this is quite a predictable event. people talk about the global financial crash, blacks one, that was totally unforeseen. there were papers saying that this potentially could happen. there would be a virus from animals and possibly starting in china. they do a range of different kinds of planning. they did preparations and coalition building in 2010. there are defence exercises that are done. and those are supposed to raise serious questions. we are supposed to evol

let's turn to our next page and a state front page of the telegraph, and its and we are not sure how much this is all going to cost us. and the government. of the state is to pay wages as the pm orders and national shutdown. it's incredible just watching him standing there and saying, as the telegraph point that we don't know how much is going to cost, this is open—ended, this package and we understand it may have to go on for months and months, and we are ok with that. it's just, imean, he and we are ok with that. it's just, i mean, he kept on saying i think he said five times over that short speech, he set a president said. and it really is and to watch a conservative government doing this ina conservative government doing this in a newly elected conservative government decide to take this huge, huge step to deliver 80% of people present wages for an on verified length of time is just mad. necessary and sensible, but it's just watching it is we get from a mind blowing, really. when you look at this a lot of this is call me fears and nervousness about what is going to happen. yes, a

let's start off with the lead story on the daily telegraph. patients are being told to stay at home if they get a mild virus. there is increasing worry about the impact on the nhs of this outbreak. absolutely, yeah. and i think concerns have been raised in the uk because obviously they had the first fatality of someone within the country, sort of yesterday. and of course we have the daily telegraph quoting the nhs‘s medical director with this advice which, actually, i don't think it's too far from what the original advice was a couple of weeks ago when it wasn't as much of a concern in the uk. which is essentially ring the nhs helpline when you talk about your symptoms and then someone is as actually it sounds like it is not that serious, so stayed home. clearly, if we see this sort of level of cases that have been seen, i know country such as italy, the stress on the nhs may be quite severe. the problem is of course many people, particularly older generations who feel they really are at most risk, they of course want to take those precautions

the telegraph also goes with that story, claiming these tests could allow the economy to get back on the government will announce measures to help self—employed people tomorrow. so, let's begin. first of all, laura's on the left. could you either waive or not to show that you can hear me and our connections are working? normally we would have you in the studio. we got you both in your homes. it's awful now because all the viewers will get to snoop inside people's homes, i noticed the first thing you've done is got rid of every picture or paper or anything. i have no evidence for how you might live your lives, but i wa nt to you might live your lives, but i want to start with the daily telegraph with this fascinating picture of the queen speaking to borisjohnson from picture of the queen speaking to boris johnson from windsor. the thing that stands out to me is that retro phone she's got, which i last saw it in about 1985. harriet, what did you make a? absolutely. it is the sort of thing you would imagine the sort of thing you would imagine the queen would have, very retro, very old s

the telegraph, this is interesting, the story.many expectations they are being put off the infrastructure announcements. there are questions about dropping off for two weeks. you would at least have known what was coming. his opportunity to stamp his authority as the man who owns the purse strings what the implication is he is prepared to listen them if the economy struggles. —— is he is prepared to listen them if the economy struggles. -- he is prepared to loosen them if the economy struggles. yes, the damage worldwide would be millions more deaths of the world economy dropped by 5%, people in poorer countries will die, so that is an extremely serious issue. i hurt the other day that the iphone takes 136 different parts to construct it, that is 136 supply lines, most of which coming from china, slowing production so an emblem of capitalism right there, the apple iphone. if that is going to be delayed, the knock—on effect on the world economy will be catastrophic and that, for all government, is a huge worry. what is very interest

claire cohen from the telegraph, this becoming a issue.e to the word admits. michael gove today, i think the first admission from a cabinet minister there is a holdup in testing. some might say that had we got our plans into gear sooner when it comes to testing, we would not be scrabbling around with the rest of the globe in order to try and get hold of these chemicals. michael gove was saying the targeted 10,000 tests a day had been met at the weekend. new figures in the papers tomorrow show that the latest are only that 82110 were done yesterday. we are not even hitting that 10,000 a target it seems really unlikely whereunto had that 25,000 a day by mid april —— we are going to hit. whereunto had that 25,000 a day by mid april -- we are going to hit. as you say, a massive issue. what are your thoughts? i think it's absolutely right that the press co nfe re nce absolutely right that the press conference today definitely told us something that has been a suspicion about, andl something that has been a suspicion about, and i work in communi

alsojoined by nick trent, the telegraph's deputy head of travel who is joining us the telegraph's deputy travel who isjoining us from norfolk. thank you very much for joining us here today. we are going to start with a medical question, doctorjarvis and julie jones has got in touch. semi—questions regarding the symptoms. julie says, what is meant by a continuous cough? how will you is a new question yesterday, this week, before?m how will you is a new question yesterday, this week, before? it is a very good question and the issue really is it is difficult because different people will have different recommendations or different definitions of what it is. it is 37.8 or 38 degrees, but if it is over 37.8 degrees, it is worthwhile andi over 37.8 degrees, it is worthwhile and i would like to see people buying a thermometer so they can ta ke buying a thermometer so they can take their own temperature. a continuous cough is something that has been going on for half a day. other people who have copd or asthma, they will have a cough most of the time. but we are talking about a cough that is dif

the telegraph, virus on the front there, prepare to self—isolate if you have a cold, officials warn. lot of other newspapers. i suppose this sort of brings it home to the public, the seriousness of this, as if the public didn't already have that. but also, the sense that, and i think this was what chris whitty and boris johnson were trying to get across today, that there is a plan, they are in control. and when things do get worse, we know what you should be doing. guest, which is a good effort. i'm not sure it convinces many people. just my view of boris johnson is that he's a good jokester, but not a prime minister for a time of crisis. but that's precisely why he has chris woody next to him. absolutely, he has those two grown—ups around him to give him some gravitas, but i don't feel any particular sense of reassurance that he is in charge at a time like this. and it is interesting that the telegraph, in its column alongside the main story that you have just sent out, talks about donald trump blaming fake news for the coronavirus, for causing the stock market to panic. and it is e

interestingly, according to the telegraph, this initiative came from the banks themselves.s something we can do. yes, this is a way we can do. yes, this is a way we can help. many of you have been in touch about what you would like in terms of help. russell jones says, what about a budget provision for the self—employed, for a gig worker. i am a gig worker. low—paid, paye, for those who rent, of course, they will not benefit from a mortgage holiday. i mean, you are in the conference industry and many of them are being cancelled. conference industry and many of them are being cancelledlj tell them are being cancelled.” tell you what, sally, it has been devastating for me. i had conferences lined up between 110w conferences lined up between now and may. all gone. at the moment i'm going to have to live on my savings. i don't think anybody is going to help henry bonsu... so you think anybody is going to help henry bonsu. .. so you will need a mortgage holiday.” henry bonsu. .. so you will need a mortgage holiday. i am a believer in prudence, ifixed the roof when the sun was sh

sienna, lets start with the sunday telegraph and the prime minister puts industry on a war footing toister puts industry on a war footing to equip the the prime minister puts industry on a warfooting to equip the nhs for the battle ahead. a lot of military —type terminology used at the moment. definitely. obviously, we know one of the biggest problems will be the resources that the nhs has, as whether staffing it is difficult to resource the nhs so quickly, because this stuff can't happen overnight. the prime minister is asking manufacturers, including rolls—royce, to produce these ventilators, because we are going to need, i mean, multiple times more than we already have to deal with this. i think the fact that it says the prime minister is urging or asking, is concerning. perhaps the government should be telling manufacturers to do this. but that is quite difficult, because we have an unregulated economy and we have to switch quickly to actually tell companies what to do in order to do with this crisis. dave, other companies will be prepared to go along with us, do you think, to hel

in reply, according to creelman, hearst telegraphed remington. please remain. you furnish the pictures, and i will furnish the war. he goes on to write that the proprietor of the journal, i.e. hearst was as good as his word and brought about the war. interestingly, he offers no documentation for this anecdote. his book has no footnotes, has no citations. he does not explain then or ever after that how he learned about this anecdote, how he learned about this purported exchange between hearst and remington. this is important because creelman at the time had a reputation for being a notoriously unreliable journalist. he claimed in 1894 that he witnessed a massacre of chinese civilians by japanese forces, an episode that was later investigated by the u.s. state department and found to be a gross exaggeration. during the spanish-american war in 189 toward the end of the war, creelman claimed he led a climactic charge of u.s. forces, that he was at the head of the charge of u.s. forces against the spanish position santiago cube. he claimed he was the guy leading the

we will begin, james, with the telegraph.s, it appeared on instagram yesterday. carrie simon is published this photograph, shortly after the announcement that she is pregnant —— carrie symonds, and she has been proposed to and will get married. yes, there are a lot of stories around, so journalists can choose what they wa nt to journalists can choose what they want to put on a front pages, so the telegraph alone has chosen to go big on the impending wedding. and the baby. you know, that is kind of it in the story, i have to say. it is interesting that i have got my special pan out and i have circled things in red usually, but i haven't circled anything today. nor had i? it is just circled anything today. nor had i? it isjust a circled anything today. nor had i? it is just a very straight straightforward story, that the prime minister is going to get married and they are going to have a baby. but there is more. for example, there is a 2k year age gap. there is some weird stuff that of course, he can't say how many children he

the sunday telegraph contains an interview with the chancellor, who says next week's budget will containsures to help businesses deal with the virus. the sunday mirror has a tribute to the british man who died from covid—19, after catching it on a caribbean cruise. let's take a look at some of those stories in more detail. let's go to the sunday times to begin with. ruth, quite tall plans for the worst does the virus spreads?” think that is right. they have gone from containment phase, as they called it, when they were trying to contain the thing, to the delay phase, when they are trying to slow down the spread of the virus. there is apparently going to be some emergency covid—19 bill coming and which will actually give them more powers to deal with the coronavirus. you are talking probably about closing schools, encouraging working from home, banning public meetings and the like, to try and control it. and i must say, even though 100,000 deaths does seem slightly excessive, we have to remind ourselves china has had 80,000 cases, and so far, touch wood, only 3000 deaths, which is high en

so the telegraph and social media is not a comparison i thought i would ever make, but it's really a striking one. sully, because of the telegraph and other things that were spreading news much more quickly than ever before and further than ever before about what was going on in congress, he worried throughout the negotiations what they were going to think if i do duel. what are new englanders going to think if i don't duel? and wise knew that his constituents would be proud of him for dangling a duel to defend everything that he represented. and in fact, he even said so. always a handy thing. henry wei hen wise always said what he wasn't supposed to say. someone would do something, threaten someone, and wise would stand up and say this is like the last five times that happen and i would be a happy historian because i had five other times. so he is that guy. in congress someone says to wise, you should be ashamed of yourself for all of this fighting. shame on you. we should throw you out. and wise responds, do it. go right ahead. i will be back here in no time because my constituents

steam powered printing presses, railroads, the telegraph, all of them came to the fore in this period and together, they spread news of what was happening in congress faster and further than ever before. so southern bullying and duel taunting potentially had a more powerful impact. it is interesting, it has been an interesting time in american history to come up with a book on politicians behaving badly and physical violence between politicians. it took me so long to write it that i could not have known that this moment would be the moment when my book came out, but what of the things i found striking when i was finishing up the book was that there was a chapter in telegraph, at the new form of technology. information spreading quickly. congressman suddenly do not control the spin. the public is learning all kinds of things and they cannot tell what is true or false. conspiracy. start to spread because of the confusion. it is so easy to spread them. if you think about it, the telegraph did what social media does today, which is, politics is basically a conversation between politicians

the telegraph and social media was not a comparison i thought it would make but it is a striking one. because of the telegraph and other things that were spreading news much more quickly than ever before and much further than ever before of what was going on in congress, he word throughout the negotiations, what are new england are going to think if i duel or if i don't duel? and wise knew that his constituents would be part of him for dangling a duel to defend what he represented. he even said so. henry wise is not only my most frequent-fighter, but he always said what he wanted to say. someone would do something, threaten someone, and wise would stand up and said, this is like the last five times that it happened. and i would be a happy historian because i had five other times. he is that guy. so someone in congress says to wise, you should ashamed of yourself -- you should be a sham of yourself. we should react. wise response, do it. go ahead. i will be back here in no time because my constituents put me here to fight on their behalf. they want me to behave this way. and in many wa

spain also imposed rigorous censorship of all telegraphic traffic to and from cuba and it also instituted what turned out to be a very cruel policy called reconcentration. reconcentration. reconcentration led to a humanitarian disaster on cuba by 1897 and early 1898. reconcentration was an attempt by the spanish authorities to deprive the cuban rebels of support from the countryside, of support from the cuban population. under reconcentration, old men, women and children were herded by the spanish into fortified centers on cuba to deprive them of support, to keep them from supporting the cuban rebels. in these garrison towns, they suffered immensely. suffered immensely. starvation, disease ran rampant. thousands of cuban noncombatants died because of this policy. and by 1898, early 1898 cuba was the scene of a full-blown humanitarian disaster. so it was against this backdrop, war in cuba, that davis and remington together arrive in havana and proceed immediately to try to get the lay of the land. one of their first meetings was with the butcher, the butcher. who, you may ask, was the butc

wire telegraph along the road i mean this is ancient technology almost we don't need it anymore we can innovate this binary outcome you know reminds me of liberty give me death right i mean there comes a point in time when a population has to decide if they want to move forward as free individuals sovereign individuals or succumb to the state and are we at an inflection point in the united states and elsewhere around the world where we're going to come to kind of a conflict in the conflict if you will between those who want to impose their will getting rid of all rights well the the conflict has been simmering under the surface for well over a decade in the open since the financial crisis it's erupted into protests all over the world hong kong chile you name it people are protesting and. the critical question gets posed repression or regeneration. which route are we going to go and if you go down the repression route which it seems like munch and that's what he wants to do right let's come down with the iron fist well what how did that work. in history well you had the french acid and

just a quick comment from both of you on the sunday telegraph story.ndemic test four years ago. the nhs was effectively put under a kind of preparedness and stress test to see how it would cope and the results we re how it would cope and the results were not good. a major story. i'm surprised they didn't lean on in some ways. for years ago in 2016, there was a preparation test, a pandemic test called operation sickness. the findings were so shocking that they were kept secret. that basically, there was an inadequacy amongst the nhs to deal with a pandemic, with a virus of this ilk. if the nhs leadership knew that and the government knew that four years ago, questions i'm sure will be asked about why steps weren't taken to ensure that things we re weren't taken to ensure that things were better when it became the real thing, rather thanjust were better when it became the real thing, rather than just an academic, as it were, exercising... it is not an academic exercise. a quick comment from you, lynn? astonishing to me that this was hidden. if people tun

let's look at the sunday telegraph. the headline the nhs facing italian style crisis.ally in his open letter to the nation as well. what he is saying is that we are about to come he reckons now come up between two and three weeks behind italy. and we have all seen some really appalling footage come out of italy of hospitals com pletely come out of italy of hospitals completely overwhelmed, patients ending up in covert doors and dying there, so what the prime minister is saying is if you do not want to end up saying is if you do not want to end up in the same situation, the only way is to stay indoors, keep the social distancing, and obviously for vulnerable people, this looks like something they will have to do for the next three months. also on the front page there, one of the lines, something we have been warned about repeatedly, there are, we are two weeks possibly three weeks behind italy here which is quite a haunting thought. yes. i think it is absolutely the most shocking of all of the front pages that we have got in so far. ijust do not quite understand why peo
