there is the most extraordinary photograph in the front of the post and i said i love the yorkshire post photographs in this one is the artist possible standing use of layers of light and particle clouds to bring the magic of the northern lights to bradford city park. it's not part of the installation and a district—wide festival which ends tomorrow and it's just a spectacular picture and if you look at it on your computer at home, if you're lucky enough to live in yorkshire and you can pick up live in yorkshire and you can pick up a copy of the posts, that is a photo that is really earning its place. that is a bit of a diversion. my place. that is a bit of a diversion. my apologies, because you're producing a tiny version and will probably be in black—and—white given our technology at the moment. susie, i know you will be relishing the story. tory mps turn on boris johnson. to the story. tory mps turn on boris johnson. ., . ~' the story. tory mps turn on boris johnson. ., ., ~ , , ., johnson. to make yes, there are moves afoot _ johnson. to make yes, there are moves afoot in _ joh

do you want to kick us off with that paper in the yorkshire post? reporting on the head of the cricket club which had to resign and is saying in an interview with the bbc, humour seemed to be implying bills the rest of clubs fault and not his. azeem rafiq has been suing the club for racism and harassment and normally, most organisations being hit with a court case in the litigation is reason enough to look at yourself and start cleaning house for no other reason than to make sure you're not having to pay out as much money as you otherwise would. what appears to have happened here is this been inquiries and a batten down the hatches and refused to make changes in the circle the wagons as opposed to addressing the fundamental issue which is why there in the situation they are in. it's always going to blow up and get worse if you try to not do the thing which common sense and reason says you have to do. so, it's going to lumber on for a long time. celebrating regionaljournalism with this. i was talking to my colleague from bbc radio who presents the cr

post front page which obviously focuses on it very closely. you can see on the front page, the cricket club sponsors exit and racism row. removing brand from stadium, player admits slurand removing brand from stadium, player admits slur and they call for inquiry. foryorkshire admits slur and they call for inquiry. for yorkshire county cricket club, this is not going away either in reputational terms or at the very least, and financial terms. s know, for sure. in the way they dismissed it as banter, the remarks made against him and when you see the apology that they made, it's a qualified apology in that it says the remark in another context would have been a holy and acceptable. almost implying that because it was amongst friends and a team environment that it was ok and trying to justify what happened and not the categorical apology that you like to see and i think if i had known that is causing offence, i will diffuse the remark and culturally, we've come a long way to where it's to make very much accepted that it's simply not good enough an

featured by both | the guardian and the yorkshire post, will look at the guardian first of the front page. it's a story that keeps running. i used a racist term. the former england batsman admits to using offensive language to his team—mate. how controversial is this getting and will this help people understand the circumstances more? he. and will this help people understand the circumstances more? trio. i and will this help people understand the circumstances more?— and will this help people understand the circumstances more? no, i do not think so. the circumstances more? no, i do not think s0- this — the circumstances more? no, i do not think so. this is— the circumstances more? no, i do not think so. this is all— the circumstances more? no, i do not think so. this is all stemmed - the circumstances more? no, i do not think so. this is all stemmed from - think so. this is all stemmed from support to racism and yorkshire but the allegations made about bullying and harassment. many of which were upheld over a racist slur and the handling of this is been absolutely terrible.

dashed yorkshire post. it's not the most exciting titles, but it does have a real impact on a lot of people and i suppose this is why there's so much concerned about what these plans look like compared to how they were originally drawn up for high—speed links across the north in the midlands. for high-speed links across the north in the midlands.- for high-speed links across the north in the midlands. there's been so much backlash _ north in the midlands. there's been so much backlash in _ north in the midlands. there's been so much backlash in the _ north in the midlands. there's been so much backlash in the last - north in the midlands. there's been so much backlash in the last few- so much backlash in the last few days— so much backlash in the last few days when— so much backlash in the last few days when details of the plans have been preemptively linked that the prime _ been preemptively linked that the prime minister has written to the yorkshire — prime minister has written to the yorkshire po

well, as part of those revised rail plans, the yorkshire post is reporting that the county will getjust two miles of new high—speed track within its borders. the manchester evening news examines what this decision means for the city, with analysis on multiple pages of the paper. the guardian is reporting that the number of stop and searches carried out by police has risen by 24% to almost 700,000 in a single year. "it's absolutely time to act" is the warning from the german chancellor angela merkel on the front of the telegraph, as she announces new restrictions to stop a fourth wave in central europe. the home secretary priti patel tells the times that the schengen agreement — which abolished many of the eu's internal borders with member states — had left france "overwhelmed" with migrants trying to reach britain. plenty to discuss, we will start with the real story and get stuck in with the real story and get stuck in with the real story and get stuck in with the manchester evening news. "second—class ticket for the north." £18 billion slashed from full fat high—speed railw

and a picture of lionel blair dominates the front page of the yorkshire post. its lead is a story about sponsors leaving its county cricket club due to a racism row. so, let's begin. a bit more of a proper look and let us start with kate and the guardian and the very strong front—page story tories plunged into crisis after sleaze rules you turn and tory mps reacting with fury afterjohnson withdrew in less than 2a hours after ordering them to support this incredibly controversial amendment. conservative backbench mps feel incredibly used over the last 2a hours. it sounds to me like there was a very heavy operation happening saying there is supposed to disband the current standards committee system and the committee system and try to replace it with something else. many of them dutifully went through the lobbies and even had members on the move only forjust a few hours into the parliamentary sessions and there is a huge, they realise this was not a good look, not a good idea they should not have been trained to change the standards committee at this point in ti

post leads with new research on the divide in prosperity between the north and south of england. the daily mail has a report on the circumstances behind the return to jail of convicted murderer and six offender colin pitchfork and ole gunnar solskj r is is no longer at the wheel at manchester united. but who will replace him? the daily star has its money on former tottneham manager mauricio pochettino. so let�*s begin with more detailed look at the papers. will begin with the telegraph and those covid protests that we�*ve seen, restriction protests seen in brussels and elsewhere on the continent. liam, do you want to begin with that? a really striking image of two police officers, the ground in front of them on fire. these arejust ground in front of them on fire. these are just the scenes you don�*t want to be saying now. we continue on this covid journey, it�*s a worrying time and the world health organization said that europe is again the epicentre of the covid pandemic. we�*ve seen some seriously violent scenes. those seen on the telegraph in brussels of course we kn

that story makes the lead in the yorkshire post — which reports that some of the county cricket club's sponsors are distancing themselves from the brand. the owen paterson story is the lead in the i paper — it says the tories have torn up the anti—sleaze laws to "save" their colleague. and there is a similar take in the guardian — though it also notes that "scores of tory mps" didn't back the prime minister — on what it describes as a "day of extraordinary drama" in westminster. the ft leads on a us story — saying the fed is going to start scaling back its stimulus programme as the us economy recovers from covid. it also reports the bank of england is expected to raise interest rates for the first time since 2018. so, let's begin. we will look to begin with the owen patterson story in the metro newspaper which is the headline, a rather memorable headline, the sleazy way out. shifting the goal to block scandals and x and p ministered to thousands of pounds a year to rally for two private firms and he says he did nothing wrong. how do you see the story in the metro? it how do y

post, the northern echo and others, all saying that this is an absolute sell—out, and yet the government confronts itself with a situation where they are spending shedloads of money on a big, long—term project and still getting hammered for saying it's not enough because it doesn't match up with what they were originally saying they would do. although we have to be careful about the money, because there is a headline figure of £96 billion, which is shed loads of money to invest in something in this country, over a long period, admittedly. actually, quite a lot of those billions are things that were being spent already on the bits of hs2 that are going to go ahead, so there's a little asterisk next to that 96 billion. the other asterisk against kind of the new tory voters is, remember, there were constituencies that this bit of hs2 were going to go through that weren't going to have any train stations in them... but would get the downsides. exactly. so there will be new tory voters will be really happy tonight that that railway they hated is not going to go through their back garden. a

the yorkshire post, featuring a picture of borisjohnson at the podium in glasgow, says he is now �*cautiously optimistic�* about the outcome of the summit, in contrast to his downbeat mood at the weekend. and that brighter tone is captured in the headline in the times: "pm hails deal to cut methane emissions". the daily telegraph says that every british company, listed on the stock exchange, will have to produce plans for going green or risk being fined. and finally, the i newspaper breaks with the consensus and goes for a different lead. it reports that the roll—out of boosterjabs programe against covid—i9 has stalled. so, let's begin. starting with you and the guardian which is talking about the devastation that you make devastating fires being pinned on global warming. devastating fires being pinned on globalwarming. for since the 1990s it is going up every three years and if countries don't cut carbon emissions, they are going to be every single year by the end of the century, it is going to be this level of heat or more, potentially. this level of heat or more, potentially-— pote

the start of the month of october with a nice little chitchat with the yorkshire post. it sounds like the government was concerned about inflation. he followed up those comments with a conversation with a group of 13 weaning even harder to the conversation. then, the chief economist saw where rates were and called november a live meeting. now course, anytime one of the central banks speaks and makes a statement, it is conditional. we understand that. no one here is a child. they are smarter than that and i know that when it comes to central banking communication, it is about emphasis in the know where the emphasis was. my thing with on yesterday is not a high interest rates yesterday. it is a fact they completely backed away from doing it soon when they were looking to make a moves at some point before the end of the year. when the leader of a central bank says it is not our job to guide short-term interest rate. that is literally their job. that makes no sense. tom: today have a different monetary calculus because of brexit? jonathan: what has changed in the last week?

tackle falling standards post lockdown. hello and welcome if you re watching in the uk or around the world. police in the united states have opened a criminal investigation after eight people died at a music festival in texas on friday. many people were also hurt when the crowd surged forward — on the opening night of astroworld in houston. investigators are also looking into claims that someone in the crowd was injecting other people with drugs. this report from simonjones contains flashing images. a concert venue that's become a crime scene. shortly after this footage was taken, the crowd, made up of 50,000 people, began to surge towards the stage. it's not clear why. the dead are aged between 1a and 27. police say they are determined to find answers for the families of those who lost their lives. i will tell you, one of the narratives was that some individual was injecting other people with drugs. we do have a report of a security officer, according to the medical staff, that was out and treated him last night, that he
