comes later on down the line, but that said, he has commissioned this review from the office of tax implication. it's a government body, stature due to body, rather, and they have come back saying that capital gains taxes the tax, i don't think there were any surprises there. there have been so many reviews. taxes increase in people's asset values. it increases in wealth, tax lower rates than income tax. it's really unfair, it means if you own a lot of well, you end up paying less tax on increases in your wealth than people who are working injobs, getting paid, and also lots of loopholes around capital gains tax. it falls disproportionally on wealthier people, it means that they can employ tax advisers, exploit loopholes. so it's not a surprise to me that this review has said capital gains tax if rate for reform, lots of people i been saying it. there is a strong case for reform. but, you know, lots of chancellors have looked at it before and not actually done anything because they don't wa nt to done anything because they don't want to hurt wealthy people and, you know, this is a tax that could hurt essentially wealthy tory voters who give money to the party. so i hope something gets done about it, i'm slightly sceptical at something that rishi sunak is going to follow—up on. time, he said previously he didn't want —— tom, he described it asa didn't want —— tom, he described it as a tax horror show, he has mentioned that's kind of phrase. this is targeting a lot of the papers, specifically targeting those second homeowners. yes, capital gains tax isn't paid by that many people, really, because you need to gain quite a bit on a capital before you pay it, and that's the better off second homes isa that's the better off second homes is a big area, assets accumulating when you try and sell them. so, it would definitely be unpopular with some tory mps, but he's got to raise some tory mps, but he's got to raise some money somewhere, some tory mps, but he's got to raise some money somewhere, and the big income tax is cgt, income tax itself, national insurance contributions, vat, you are not going to raise much money and government unless you go off to one of those, and they do need to raise an awful lot of money. and there has been through out the summer and gains in autumn the tremendous row between a britannia number 11 on the business of tax at all. the prime minister against it and wants to borrow more and pay that down with the process of growth when growth returns. the chancellor saying, no, we really need to show the markets are credible and we can manage our finances and not just all or never. it appears that rishi sunak is dominating this now but, of course we are not going to see any of these rises because he had to cancel his budget. that should've been around about now. it won't be around until next april. so about four months left of healthy government drawing to go before we see who wins that one. 0h, to go before we see who wins that one. oh, when you put it like that, yes, something to look forward to. let's just yes, something to look forward to. let'sjust remember yes, something to look forward to. let's just remember what and who is affected by coronavirus. the daily mail, sonia, hasjust the most heartbreaking image, and it's the male christmas campaign for pity‘s say, just let them hold hands. for so many people, they can't reach out to their loved ones. it simply heartbreaking. it's totally heartbreaking. it's totally heartbreaking. gosh, you know, my heartbreaking. gosh, you know, my heart does go out to anybody who has got the parent or an aunt and uncle ina care got the parent or an aunt and uncle in a care home. you know, some people living in care homes have really serious advanced dementia or alzheimer's, and they are not clear on what's going on and they don't have that grounding of having their loved ones and a familiar voice around them. and it's really, really distressing. i think it is underplayed. we haven't been giving it enough attention in this crisis to people living in care homes. how we can make it safe for them to have visits from say at least one designated relative. there is a pilot that has just gotten under way which is sort of implementing rapid testing for relatives, treating them as care workers to try to get relatives into care workers. it's coming up quite late, really, eight or nine months into a pandemic, you know, we are onlyjust doing these things. so it's really, really difficult. you know, one thing i will say though is that no country seems to have really got it right in ca re seems to have really got it right in care homes. our death rate in care homes here has been terrible, and a country like sweden, it's been bout as well. once you've got the spread of coronavirus in the community, it seems that no country has really worked out how to stop it spreading into ca re worked out how to stop it spreading into care homes, because if people, workers going and who are asymptomatic, you may not have them get a test, so we have got to get this better. but it underlines as well that those people who make the argument that we should just lock up honourable people, you know, by that they often mean older people, and eve ryo ne they often mean older people, and everyone else should go about their business as usual, itjust doesn't work for so many different reasons, but one is that it is just com pletely but one is that it is just completely and utterly inhumane. and we have got to work on keeping the virus low, so older people aren't trapped in care homes without being able to see their loved ones. time, it is such an emotive, it is such an emotive image as well that the daily mail has got on its front page. it's going to pull people's heartstrings. it is something, we want all of this to be over so that can have a relatively normal, a semblance of a christmas. i think that's right. it isa very christmas. i think that's right. it is a very powerful picture indeed. it isa is a very powerful picture indeed. it is a scene that has been replicated all over the country for the last eight months now. 411,000 people in care homes that is reported on their front page, all of them having to go through this. and there is a good point, clearly you don't want to be subject to coronavirus. you don't want coronavirus. you don't want coronavirus to come into your care home, you want to stay safe and secure from it. at the isolation that a lot of people have suffered notjust in care homes but have been shielding for months on end has been devastating. i'm told that the death rate amongst older people not in ca re rate amongst older people not in care homes, but at home has soared throughout coronavirus, the government seems to think dimly because people get very lonely and very miserable and it zaps their strength. it really is a very good reason to do this. you know, mouse testing, the play minister's if you are able to perform a test on the door of a care home and get a result back within 20 minutes that says you are clear abets, there should be no good reason really why you can't go in. iq therefore is getting that sort of machinery, that sort of technology distributed to care homes as quickly as humanly possible so you can start reuniting families again. and let's go back to the story that's been developing this evening. let's focus back in on the daily telegraph because it's the one paper that it on its front page, sonia, lee cain the prime minister's adviser quitting number ten. our political editor, laura kuenssberg, tweeted that a lot of people in number ten are unhappy, some of lee cain's allies will quit. something that time touched upon a little bit earlier. that tom touched on a little bit earlier. him moving to that position was in order to create a bit of order and number ten and it's done exactly the opposite. and i think thisjust it's done exactly the opposite. and i think this just speaks to the real sort of toxic divisions that exist within the government at the moment. and the level of unhappiness with some of the key people in charge. both on the back benches, but also in the conservative cabinets. there area in the conservative cabinets. there are a lot of people who... lee cain isa are a lot of people who... lee cain is a key ally of dominic cummings. there are a lot of people who are massively unhappy with his promotion to chief of staff and didn't think it was the right thing for the prime minister to do. and i think what time was saying earlier is exactly right. this feels like a westminster bible story. but the reason why it's important is it speaks to the internal divisions within government. it probably will have lots of real—world ramifications in terms of what direction the government goes on in terms of the pandemic and how it manages communications around that. a real critical public health issue. and in terms of brexit. so, it feels like we are watching a westminster soap opera, but it's a soap opera that is probably going to end up affecting all of our day—to—day lives, but you know, i just all of our day—to—day lives, but you know, ijust come back to this point, itjust know, ijust come back to this point, it just feels know, ijust come back to this point, itjust feels so unnerving and so unsettling to know all of this stuff is going on a number ten at the same time when you know the government is really managing the biggest crisis that we have had since the second world war in this country. i guess, tom, maybe a few people since this weekends i don't think many people will have not known who he is, but the influence that he has is rather understated. he is pretty powerful when it comes to the internal workings of 10 downing street. lee cain and dominic cummings both. very much so. and you have almost seen over the years strong characters in number ten, certainly more successful ones have had to be. i think sometimes, that strength of character, which lee cain and dominic cummings have, if it goes over the top, they can alienate people. and certainly the strength and force of this, perhaps both of them have pushed through their business, pushing the government's business and what the prime minister wants has alienated a lot of people, a lot of mps really don't like the pair. i had a text from a minister when he heard about lee cain's resignation tonight with the simple word, brilliant. so they have broken some eggs in their time together, and almost a double act. tory mps will be quite pleased with this result, obviously the prime minister has said his own statement that he would be very sad. it's maybe time for number ten to certainly more friendly behaviour towards the media and their own mps. remember, lee cain has been at war for the last 16—17 months that he's beenin for the last 16—17 months that he's been in that job. for the last 16—17 months that he's been in thatjob. i think the good morning show there is a band running for 106 days now. there may be an olive branch extended by a mp. making hay on this night, just released a statement on this, i will just quickly read it... the uk became the first country in europe to top 50,000 coronavirus debts, borisjohnson's to top 50,000 coronavirus debts, boris johnson's government are fighting like rats in a sack over who gets whatjob. fighting like rats in a sack over who gets what job. to know what's come on those words, i think we will leave it there. thank you so much for bringing fast —— us that statement from the labour party. tom, sonia, thank you so much for talking us through this developing story from 10 downing street and also all of the other coronavirus focus stories. we will be back in just over half an hour to look at more of the stories being covered by newspapers and websites here. goodbye for now. good evening. wednesday has brought as a transition to much more unsettled autumnal weather for the remainder of this week. that's going to be the theme, in fact. —— it's going to stay windy through tonight and the rain will be moving its way used words affecting all of us its way used words affecting all of us for a all down to this active rental system pushing in from the atlantic, lots of isobars on that front as a push its way eastwards. we could see gusts of about 30—40 mph, particularly strong around these exposed irish sea coasts. not quite as strong as that rain band pushes towards the east through the earlier hours of thursday morning. eventually, that wet weather clears away from the east coast, so clearer skies and just a few scattered showers following on behind. should be frost free with temperatures in our towns and cities 6—10 degrees, colder than that, though, in the countryside. so, thursday brings a bit of a quieter day than wednesday. there will be more sunshine around. more cloud, though, building from the west later on ahead of the next area of rain, and a little cooler than recent days, around 10—13 degrees. bye— bye. this is bbc news, with the latest headlines for viewers in the uk and around the world. i'm
