the 2021 bbc sports personality of the year is emma raducanu. and tennis star emma raducanu has won the bbc sports personality of the year. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are lizzy buchan, deputy online political editor at the mirror and olivia utley, assistant comment editor at the telegraph. let's take a look at some of tomorrow's front pages already in. starting with the metro. "it's all looking a bit ominous" it says, as the health secretary refuses to rule out more covid restrictions ahead of the christmas break. those restrictions hang in the balance, reports the i. the government is under increasing pressure from scientists after what they describe as a sobering analysis of the latest uk covid data. the daily telegraph leads on this, too. it says it understands that the prime minister has been presented with three options drawn up by officials for further restrictions to curb the spread of omicron. and jingle bell lock says the sun, as borisjohnson discusses restrictions on indoor mixing ahead of the christmas break. but the times reports that at least ten ministers are questioning the latest covid modelling by the government advisory group, sage. the ft reports that restrictions are already coming into place across europe, including a lockdown in the netherlands and german entry requirements for uk citizens. they come amid rising cases of the omicron variant. and the guardian leads with this photo of the prime minister, alongside his wife and staff, as it reports some of them enjoy cheese and wine in the garden of 10 downing street, when we were in lockdown in may last year. tonight, a downing street spokesperson said "work meetings often take place in the downing street garden in the summer months." that is a little flavour of those front pages. lizzy and olivia let's begin. olivia, you will kick us off this around with the page of the guardian with the picture in number 10 get number 10's garden. another icture of 10 get number 10's garden. another picture of number _ 10 get number 10's garden. another picture of number 10 _ 10 get number 10's garden. another picture of number 10 staff, - picture of number 10 staff, including the prime minister this time, seemingly breaking the restrictions that are just in place. it obviously appears very hypocritical, we don't know the ins and outs of it, there is a statement from downing street saying that they were working and it is also a private garden and the rules didn't apply to private gardens at the time but it leaves a bitter taste in the mouth and it is another blow. we have had so much of this over the last few weeks and it is another blow to the prime minister's waiting authority at a very bad time. lizzzs. authority at a very bad time. lizzy, anuela authority at a very bad time. lizzy, angela rainey _ authority at a very bad time. lizzy, angela rainey has _ authority at a very bad time. lizzy, angela rainey hasjumped -

just remind our viewers of the statement coming from downing street —— one rule for everybody else. i mentioned it looking at the front pages. a spokesperson said "as we said last week, work meetings often take place in the downing street garden in the summer months. on this occasion there was staff meetings following a number 10 press conference. downing street is the pm's home as well as his workplace and his wife lives in number 10 and therefore also legitimately uses the garden." garyjohnson also pictured there as well. the other story on there as well. the other story on the front page of the guardian is that the health secretary has hinted at new covid kerbs before christmas. this is the biggest story of the day really in my mind. it gets onto a couple of other papers, looks as though the government has been presented with very different plans drawn up by officials. the latest one is just to ask people to limit the social contact over the christmas period, which is what people are already doing. then slightly more. we can see curfews in pubs, restrictions on how many people are allowed to meet indoors, and even more would be a full on lockdown. then we get into the interesting politics of it which is with the prime minister really have the authority to be able to carry those sort of restrictions through? obviously there are lots of tory mps who are pretty fed up with him and would not take it. it seems like there might be members of the cabinet feeling the same. so i think the health secretary saying that he is not able to rule out a lock before christmas is an interesting sort of way of looking at it. could the health secretary, the government have the power to even if they wanted to? i think will have to wait and see. ., ., ., , a wanted to? i think will have to wait and see. ., ., ., , , and see. olivia, want to pick up point you _ and see. olivia, want to pick up point you said, _ and see. olivia, want to pick up point you said, this _ and see. olivia, want to pick up point you said, this is _ and see. olivia, want to pick up point you said, this is probably| and see. olivia, want to pick up| point you said, this is probably a bigger story, when you compare that story to the picture on the front of the guardian, don't you get the sense that we have this whole aspect of mixed messaging again and when the public see that it does raise the public see that it does raise the question of whether, should i adhere to any rules put in place when i see what was going on in may of last year? absolutely. and i don't like the hypocrisy is much as anybody else does. i'm not defending them for a second. and there are mixed messages. ithink them for a second. and there are mixed messages. i think this story has rumbled on for quite a long time now and the other thing coming up tonight, which i think we will talk about on the times, is questions about on the times, is questions about stage modelling. and i think whether or not we go into restrictions based on what models we are using and whether the government has the power to do that is kind of the lead story. but i do completely agree that the mixed messages from the government is difficult and completely add to the sense of will be government have the power to impose this if they were not able to stick to the restrictions themselves last year. as we turn to the front page of the sun, the same story. this time it takes for the paper is that borisjohnson is considering fresh herbs on socialising indoors. —— kerbs. businesses will be aghast at that. -- kerbs. businesses will be aghast at that. ,, ., , ., g at that. the sun goes forjingle bell lock at that. the sun goes forjingle ihell lock on — at that. the sun goes forjingle bell lock on the _ at that. the sun goes forjingle bell lock on the front -

those models, olivia. yes. sage has been continuously wrong on almost| been continuously wrong on almost every count throughout the entire pandemic and i think we are now seeing ministers wondering, we have these alarming sage figures, that is perhaps going into heavy restrictions again. don't think it is particular surprising they are beginning to question the accuracy of those models. at the top of the telegraph you will see a banner of fraser nelson about a conversation he had with a sage scientist who implied that sage models are asked to focus on the most extreme scenarios. the omicron is incredibly virulent and they deliberately focus on the more extreme scenarios and don't do much probability waiting to different situations that occur, which calls into question a lot of the modelling. eye can see why rishi sunak, the chancellor, it was normally responsible for handing out a huge economy wrecking package to hospitality, if we have to lockdown again there might be frustration with those models. this again there might be frustration with those models.— again there might be frustration with those models. as we turn to the front -a . e with those models. as we turn to the front page of — with those models. as we turn to the front page of the _ with those models. as we turn to the front page of the mirror, _ with those models. as we turn to the front page of the mirror, lizzy, -

easter. yes, which is incredibly alarming. by finding very that i easter. yes, which is incredibly l alarming. by finding very that we know how traumatic the first lockdown was when schools were closed on children, particularly deprived children, we have heard numerous cases of child abuse taking place behind closed doors. there doesn't seem to have been much conversation from the comment about doing everything we possibly can to make sure schools can stay open in the event of another lot down. we are already hearing of omicron cases so high among young people and there will be lots of teachers who are often that will cause disruption if schools are not closing. so it looks like we will have disruption for months and months ahead. i find like we will have disruption for months and months ahead. ifind is strange there is not a government programme to get retired teacher signed up again, like they tried to do with doctors and nurses last year, to get teachers teaching all the way through another lockdown if another lockdown happens, because the one thing we really do know is that lockdown is incredibly, incredibly damaging for children. let's go to the front page of the daily mail, emma raducanu has won the bbc sports personality of the year. lizzy. the bbc sports personality of the year- lizzy-— year. lizzy. this is lovely. in classic 2021 _ year. lizzy. this is lovely. in classic 2021 style _ year. lizzy. this is lovely. in classic 2021 style she -
