police in pakistan say three chinese nationals and their pakistani driver were killed in an explosion in the port city of karachi. a group that opposes chinese investment in pakistan, has said that a female suicide bomber carried out the attack. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are benjamin butterworth, late editor at the i newspaper, and harriet line, the daily mail's chief political correspondent. let's take a look at tomorrow's front pages. like many of the papers, the guardian reports allegations of sexual misconduct by multiple women against the dj tim westwood — which he strenuously denies. that story was a joint investigation by the guardian and the bbc. the metro also covers tim westwood but its main story is the cost of living crisis, with research suggesting nearly six in ten people have begun cutting back as prices rise. the telegraph leads on the pressure now being faced by the chancellor to cut taxes, as the government searches for ways to ease the pressure on household finances. the times reports concerns about escalation in the war in ukraine — with russia threatening targets in the west. it claims nato is, in effect, already engaged in a proxy war. the financial times says elon musk�*s car company tesla has seen its share price fall. investors are worried about how he will finance his $41; billion purchase of twitter. the mail leads with a story about itself — saying the mail on sunday's editor has refused to meet commons speaker lindsay hoyle to discuss its controversial article about angela rayner. the mirror tells the story of a grandmother from hartlepool who has given £11—million to charity this year alone — after she won the lottery in 2019. so let's begin... thank you both for once again taking the time to speak to us and have a look through the front pages with me. we start with the daily telegraph. the front article, sunak faces pressure to cut costs again. the story very much in focus and many of the front pages tomorrow. basically the chancellor being urged to cut tax during a cabinet meeting about tackling the cost of living crisis. things are extremely hard for so many people and it's going get worse. for so many people and it's going aet worse. , for so many people and it's going get worse-— for so many people and it's going networse. , ., �*, , get

completely - get worse. sadly, that's absolutely right. it seems completely clear i right. it seems completely clear that they're only getting it worse. we got inflation that may be about 7% at the moment, it's projected to be as high as 10%" years was up it's like that in many european countries in the us as well. so there's a huge pressure on the government to try and do something because people as we know are struggling to heat their homes, struggling to feed their families. the cabinet met and struggled to come to an answer over this. apparently the chancellor rishi sunak does not want to do at the moment at least, any sort of tax cuts or particularly expensive public spending to try and alleviate the problems people face. but the policing minister, more importantly a close a long—term ally of the prime minister has been arguing that there needs to be cuts to tax. you'll know we just had this rise of 1.25% increase in national insurance, you've got the tax burden going up for a lot of people, the prices of food going up, the 54% rise in energy costs. so he is arguing for a tax cut. jason reese morgan also argued something similar, he said the green level eggs that are on the people's energy be used two bills, i think about a quid a yearfor people, be used two bills, i think about a quid a year for people, they should be taken off as a quick way to solve the problem. it's clear that there is a split in the cabinet right now because rishi sunak doesn't want to do much spending, he's spent quite a lot of money and last two and half years. he's also politically weak at the moment and i think his colleagues are trying to rally around the weak point to get him to bring in those tax cuts. this may well come to fruition after local elections, particularly badly they might be more tempted to change tact. . ., u, , ., , tact. harriet, are the conservatives casually worried _ tact. harriet, are the conservatives casually worried about _ tact.

last couple of weeks, people are already going into their savings in order to cover a lot of the basics. when people are got to that situation already because a lot of employers aren't increasing wages at quite the same rate as inflation, how could you when it seven or 8%? that's pretty extraordinary levels. i think the government is behind the curve on this. people having their bills, 270 quid higher on theirfood bills, 270 quid higher on theirfood bills on average. also 54% rise in the cost of their energy. that's only get to go up in october. i think the government has a window here, the prime minister said the other week to sky news, he said i'll still be the prime minister in october, he was referring to party 0ctober, he was referring to party 93v- 0ctober, he was referring to party gay. but i think actually the government is in a far greater crisis about this cost —— party gate. they need to act before you see that steve energy rise that is projected by october because otherwise it's going to have an effect on the rest of the economy. a lot of those areas that suffered during the pandemic, hospitality, entertainment, all of those things let alone the basics are knocking to do well and people have no money left. that's when you get into a serious situation that could last years. if serious situation that could last ears. ., ., ~' serious situation that could

potentially axing mot, having moc every two years. some people complain that sartre couldn't do much for car safety. another idea potentially is raising the limit in the number of maximum children that age child minder can look after therefore cutting the cost of living. there are ideas that have been put forward and yet they don't seem to be a long—term solution, do they? seem to be a long-term solution, do the ? �* ~' ., seem to be a long-term solution, do the? ~' ., seem to be a long-term solution, do the? ~' _ , they? i'm kind of staggered by these ro osals. they? i'm kind of

arguments about safety regarding a child minder with lots of kids in a car that doesn't get an annual mot aside from that, these really are tinkering around the edges. we've got 2.1 people using food mags in britain at the moment. you've got the price of food rising and heating rising. people are long way off the basics. especially those on low income but particularly also people on middle income and even higher incomes in that. the idea that skipping your annual mot is good to have any serious effect on peoples cost—of—living i think is nonsense. for me it's the fact that this is been briefed out, the fact that this makes the front pages is their attempt to fix the cost crisis, i think that shows just the turmoil or the lack of awareness of how serious the lack of awareness of how serious the matter is for the government. people really are struggling with the basics. and fixings, scrapping mot as he could help that. i think borisjohnson is going to have quite a shock at the local elections if you think stuff like that is good have any effect. is a you think stuff like that is good have any effect. is a shortcoming, do ou have any effect. is a shortcoming, do you think? _ have

excellent point about what lindsay hoyle has chosen to comment on and not comment on. the article about angela rayner was ugly, misogynistic drivel. i think there is a valid question to ask even this is based on an anonymous tory mp of why they felt it was necessary to publish, why they frame the article to seem to further their misogyny and insult angela rayner as though she's thick because she didn't go to oxford union debating in her younger years. i think those are all valid questions. what's not really valid is to get the speaker to try and tell them off for reported comments, should they be true in the first place it is a slippery slope. they are much more serious problems that lindsay hoyle could deal with. i do have simply because he sort of operates like a head of hr in the comments. and he probably feels protected of female mps on all sides of the house who were horrified by the article and felt it was inappropriate, the prime minister himself condemned the commons and the nature of that article. i think he's trying to stand up for those mps and to stop this becoming a slippery slope into that kind of 90s misogyny, being normal. let’s slippery slope into that kind

legitimate argument for lack of it was trying to keep businesses afloat that had been dropped in this terrible situation. they knew that there was loads of fraud going on at the time, they knew that the appropriate checks were being done. the idea that may billions, 17 billion essentially is going to be written off, it will concern a lot of people. especially as we see in the other front pages today the chancellor isn't willing today the chancellor isn't willing to put any serious money forward to alleviate the cost of living crisis. the article also reports thatjust a few dozen directors have been disciplined for this, they've been written off of being directors of companies. at £17 billion of suspected fraud, that was clearly more than a couple of dozen bosses that got away with this. i think the government would be wise to put in an enormous amount of focus on getting that money back because it might be able to help the rest of us pay our bills. might be able to help the rest of us pay our bills-— good to talk to you both. that's it for the papers this evening. we'll be back again tomorrow evening with peter foster, public policy editor at the ft, and the broadcaster and journalist, james lewer. dojoin us then if you can but for now, goodnight. good evening. there is no better place to start than a stone cold champions league classic that had it all, goals galore, individual brilliance and even a panenka as manchester city played out a breathless 4—3 win over real madrid in their semi finalfirst leg. andy swiss rounds up a seven goal thriller at the etihad. for manchester city's players, the very warmest of welcomes. flares outside the etihad, and flags inside it, as they hoped to bring their champions league dream another step closer. but against the mighty real madrid, could they? well, how's this for an answer? barely 90 seconds gone, and kevin de bruyne ramped up the decibels. what a sensational start! and it was about to get even more sensational. the visitors dithered, gabrieljesus didn't, and it was 2—0. real were on the ropes. but city couldn't quite finish them off. they spurned a string of chances, to their manager's obvious frustration, and real made them pay. karim benzema giving them fresh hope after a breathless first half. gets one back! surely the second half couldn't match it? think again. barely had phil foden made it 3—1 to city when viniciusjunior made it 3—2. it was all as frantic as it was fantastic. next up, bernardo silva brilliantly restored city's two—goal advantage, before one final twist. handball, a real penalty, which benzema converted in the most impudent fashion. 4—3 to city. fair to say, the second leg has something to live up to. what an incredible match that was. a real champions league classic. city should have won by more but they will take that slender lead to madrid next week after a night, the fans here will certainly never forget. the organisers of wimbledon have defended their decision to ban russian and belarusian players at the tournament this summer. insisting it's the right and responsible thing to do. the chief executive of the all england club, sally bolton, was responding to criticism from tennis�* governing bodies and some players over the decision, insisting that they wanted to limit the chances of the russian regime capitalising on sporting success at wimbledon. the government issued guidance in march which was part of their response to the russian invasion of ukraine and sought to limit the influence of the russian regime using sporting success. in the context of that guidance we had to consider our options. at that point direct entry into the championships via ranking was off the table so as we considered our options in the context of the continuing aggression in ukraine from russia as well as thinking about the safety and security of the event and players, we concluded the only viable option was to decline entries from russian and belarusian competitors. wimbledon have also confirmed that world number one novak djokovic will be able to defend his title at the all england club this summer as covid—19 vaccines won't be required to play. the serbian 20 time grand slam winner was not allowed to play at the australian open injanuary following a row that centred around him being unvaccinated. ronnie o' sullivan has dominated his quarterfinal against steven maguire at the world snooker championship, the rocket leads by 11 frames to five, needing just two more to win. the match resumes at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. o'sullivan is aiming for a record equalling seventh world title. there's been a big upset in the semi—finals of rugby union's premiership cup. london irish have thumped league leaders leicester tigers 59—20 to reach their first final in the competition. both sides made a raft of changes but irish proved far too strong, to end leicester's hopes of winning three trophies this season. henry arundell with the opening try. albert tuisue, powered over from short range as the exiles stormed to a 25 point lead at the break. leicester made more of a fight of it in the second half, but the damage was done and willjoseph ran in a ninth try to complete the rout. they'll play the winners of tomorrow's other semi between gloucester and worcester. england captain sarah hunter will miss saturday's six nations grand slam decider against france with a rib injury. the veteran number eight has been forced to withdraw from the squad after suffering the injury in sunday's victory over ireland. the 36—year—old will still travel to france and join the squad to support their preparations but on an off—field capacity. a record—breaking 290—thousand fans are expected to attend the 150th open championship at st andrews injuly. there were more than 1.3 million ticket applications, which has led to the highest—ever number of general admission tickets. the previous highest attendance was 239—thousand when tiger woods triumphed at st andrews in 2000. the 15—time major winner has said he intends to return there this summer. i think it was sold out before tiger announced at the masters that that would be his next majorfor sure. but now it's going to be the hottest ticket in world sport, never mind golf. tiger woods, i say all the time, he doesn't move the needle he is the needle. he's everything that we want in golf. i for one will be there at st. andrews like the tens of thousands of others. britain's ethan hayter has won the prologue of the tour de romandie, as the cycling season gears up for this summer's grand tours. it's a six—day race held in the french—speaking part of switzerland, starting with a time—trial — and hayter, the british time trial champion, was fastest overall by four seconds. his ineos grenadiers team—mate geraint thomas, who's the defending champion, was almost as quick — the welshman is fourth overall, ten seconds behind hayter. and that's all the sport for now. hello again. it was certain areas of both england and wales that had the best of the sunshine on tuesday, temperatures reaching 17 degrees in parts of southwest england but also around cardiff's bute park as well. wasn't like that everywhere though. after a largely sunny start for quite a few, we had cloud tending to bubble up over the afternoon and spread across the skies, as you can see here on the satellite picture. with that cloud increasing, temperatures weren't as high for many of you, indeed around the eastern coast just 8 degrees in places. right now, we are seeing a good feed of cloud coming in still from the north sea so predominant cloudy weather in scotland and across eastern areas from northeast england all the way to parts of east anglia. but there are breaks elsewhere, notably across parts of southern england, across parts of the midlands, wales, running into northern ireland, northwest england as well. these areas, you might well start off with a little bit of morning sunshine but even where you start off with the sun, cloud will tend to bubble up and spread across the skies in any case as we go through the day. whether you start off cloudy or cloudy later on, most of you will see quite a lot of cloud through the day. across northeast scotland you might hold onto some sunny spells for the afternoon here. it will be wanted to elsewhere in the west. temperatures about nine to 1a degrees for most. the area of high pressure has been bringing us this long spell of settled weather, still on this chart for thursday but it is starting to weaken to a degree. we may well see just a few showers running into northern scotland, maybe one or two not far away from southwest england. otherwise, still predominantly dry, often a lot of cloud building through the day and temperatures not really changing a great deal, ten to 15 or maybe 16 c. friday follows a very similar pattern as well. if you start off with the sunshine cloud will tend to develop later on. one or two showers for northern scotland but otherwise it's another dry day with the light winds across the whole of the country. temperatures not changing a whole deal either, looking at highs potentially peaking to 16 degrees where any sunshine breaks through the cloud. the weekend will start to see some changes in the weather as high pressure starts to relinquish its grip. a little area of low pressure could thicken the cloud up enough to bring just a few passing showers. that's most likely across northern areas of the uk, the south most likely to stay dry with a few brighter spells. welcome to newsday, reporting live from singapore. i'm karishma vaswani. the headlines: a considerable distance apart — un secretary—general antonio guterres holds talks in moscow about the invasion of ukraine. president putin refuses to stop the shelling. the world's nuclear watchdog, the iaea, visits the chernobyl nuclear power plant for the first time since the russian occupation. we
