thedailymirror--2020-08-04--Pensioners to be notified about paying their TV licence after benefit axed

Millions of older people will begin receiving letters on how to pay their TV licence after the lifeline benefit was scrapped .
The BBC has brought in 800 extra staff members to deal with calls from pensioners who were stripped of the benefit on August 1 .
People over 75 have been entitled to a free TV licence since 2000 but an estimated 3.7million elderly people will now have to shell out £157.50 a year to watch television and listen to BBC radio .
The BBC was forced to restrict free licences to people receiving Pension Credit after the Government @ @ @ @ @ @ @ footing the bill .
The Tories had previously promised to guarantee the benefit in the 2017 manifesto .
The Mirror has been fighting to save the free licence , with the decision to scrap it sparking a backlash from campaigners and pensioners .
Caroline Abrahams , Charity Director at Age UK , said the BBC had provided detailed information on the changes but warned that some older people , such as those with dementia , would “ get lost in the detail ” .
“ The over-75 population is hugely diverse so while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ with ease , others may find this impossibly hard , ” she said .
“ At Age UK we ’ ve always said it was a mistake for the Government to pass responsibility for the free licence scheme to the BBC and that a replacement scheme , like the Corporation ’ s , that requires every single person over 75 to take some action was bound to be a problem and would in all likelihood end in tears .
“ The documentation the BBC has published today confirms us in our view.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 75s households will start to receive letters about how to set up their new TV Licence from today .
`` No one needs to do anything until they have received the letter – whether that ’ s paying or applying for a free licence - and no one needs to leave their home .
“ There are now 800 specially trained agents working to support customers and we are also working with hundreds of money advice and community organisations to reach older people directly , so they understand what the changes mean .

thedailymirror--2020-08-04--Two thirds of poorest workers have lost jobs or been furloughed during pandemic

Nearly two thirds of the poorest workers have been furloughed , lost their job or had their hours or pay reduced during the pandemic , new research suggests .
Analysis from the Social Metrics Commission found 65 % of workers deemed in `` deep poverty '' - living on less than half of what they need to stay above the poverty line - have suffered a negative hit to their livelihoods since the coronavirus outbreak .
This compares to 35 % of employed adults living more than 20 % above the poverty line prior to the crisis .
The report @ @ @ @ @ @ @ could see their situation worsen , while those close to the poverty line risk falling below it due to changes to their employment prospects .
It comes as big firms cut 4,500 jobs in the first two working days of August as the Government 's furlough scheme begins to wind down .
The SMC analysed responses to a YouGov poll of more than 70,000 UK adults between March and May .
Its shocking findings build on previous research , which found that some 1.7 million more people were living on less than half @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the poverty line compared to roughly 20 years ago .
In the latest report , the independent commission found that a fifth of employees in deep poverty before coronavirus said they had since lost their jobs , compared to 7 % of adults more than 20 % above the poverty line .
More than a third ( 36 % ) of people at least 50 % below the poverty line had been affected , compared to 22 % of those more than 20 % above the poverty line .
Workers from black , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ affected than white people , with 10 % of BAME workers hit compared to 8 % of their white peers .
More than half ( 56 % ) of 18-to-24-year-olds working prior to the pandemic have experienced some kind of negative impact on their employment , compared to roughly a third of 25-to-54-year-olds previously working .
Younger people were also more than twice as likely to say they had been lonely during the pandemic than those over the age of 65 .

thedailymirror--2020-08-04--Coronavirus spread faster because of 'critical error' at the borders, MPs find'

Coronavirus spread faster in the UK as the Government failed to bring in quarantine rules for travellers in the early days of the pandemic , according to MPs .
The `` critical errors '' - including the `` inexplicable '' decision to lift all border restrictions in March - `` accelerated '' the scale and pace of the pandemic in the country and led to `` many more people contracting Covid-19 '' , a Commons Home Affairs Committee report said .
The group of MPs backed the decision to include Spain in the current quarantine measures - although it hit @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were being made and called for improvements .
The inquiry considered all of the Government 's decisions on border measures during the crisis so far , from the early quarantine of 273 people largely from Wuhan , through voluntary self-isolation applying to travellers from specific countries ( including China , Iran and Italy ) in February and early March ; the lifting of all border measures on March 13 ; the introduction of mandatory quarantine in June ; the introduction of travel corridors ; and the most recent decision to reintroduce quarantine for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thousands of people with Covid-19 arrived in or returned to the UK in February and March '' , the committee concluded : `` The UK 's experience of Covid-19 has been far worse as a result of the Government 's decision not to require quarantine during March , which would have reduced the number of imported infections . ''
Some 10,000 people with Covid-19 may have entered or returned to the country in March , the committee said .
It also cited a study referred to by the Government 's chief scientific adviser @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 1,300 separate strains of the virus were imported largely from Spain , Italy and France during that period .
Committee chairwoman Yvette Cooper said : `` The Government 's failure to have proper quarantine measures in place in March as the infection was spreading fast was a grave error and meant Covid spread faster and reached more people .
`` The UK was almost unique in having no border checks or quarantine arrangements at that time .
That alone should have rung loud alarm bells for ministers and made them think again .

Some 10,000 people with Covid-19 may have entered or returned to the country in March, the committee said
Coronavirus spread faster in the UK as the Government failed to bring in quarantine rules for travellers in the early days of the pandemic, according to MPs.
The "critical errors" - including the "inexplicable" decision to lift all border restrictions in March - "accelerated" the scale and pace of the pandemic in the country and led to "many more people contracting Covid-19", a Commons Home Affairs Committee report said.
The group of MPs backed the decision to include Spain in the current quarantine measures - although it hit out at the way travel corridor decisions were being made and called for improvements.
The inquiry considered all of the Government's decisions on border measures during the crisis so far, from the early quarantine of 273 people largely from Wuhan, through voluntary self-isolation applying to travellers from specific countries (including China, Iran and Italy) in February and early March; the lifting of all border measures on March 13; the introduction of mandatory quarantine in June; the introduction of travel corridors; and the most recent decision to reintroduce quarantine for Spain.
Drawing on evidence that "thousands of people with Covid-19 arrived in or returned to the UK in February and March", the committee concluded: "The UK's experience of Covid-19 has been far worse as a result of the Government's decision not to require quarantine during March, which would have reduced the number of imported infections."
Some 10,000 people with Covid-19 may have entered or returned to the country in March, the committee said.
It also cited a study referred to by the Government's chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance which indicated more than 1,300 separate strains of the virus were imported largely from Spain, Italy and France during that period.

Committee chairwoman Yvette Cooper said: "The Government's failure to have proper quarantine measures in place in March as the infection was spreading fast was a grave error and meant Covid spread faster and reached more people.
"The UK was almost unique in having no border checks or quarantine arrangements at that time. That alone should have rung loud alarm bells for ministers and made them think again.
"Many times ministers told us they were following the science, but we cannot find any science at all behind their completely inexplicable decision to lift all the self-isolation guidance for travellers on March 13, a full 10 days before lockdown, just at a time when other countries were introducing stronger border measures.
"We were told that thousands more people with Covid-19 came back to the UK after that guidance was lifted. So in the middle of March, at a time when the number of people with Covid coming back into the UK was at its peak, they were going back to work or onto public transport or seeing family without any quarantine in place."
The Government's failure to provide the scientific advice behind its decisions - despite repeated requests and promises to do so - was "completely unacceptable", the committee said, as it warned ministers may have been making decisions without sight of "critical information".
The lack of clarity is "very serious and may well have contributed to mistakes being made", the MPs said.
Ms Cooper added: "It has been extremely difficult to work out who took key decisions and on what basis."
Last-minute decisions and mixed messages were also "very unhelpful" for holidaymakers, and the Government needs to be "much more sensitive" to the impact this has on families and businesses.
The committee also remained "unconvinced" by Home Office claims that an estimated 99.9% of the public subjected to quarantine restrictions were complying with the rules and called for the findings to be "better evidenced" and routinely published.
Among a string of recommendations made, the committee said the Government should investigate the viability of carrying out testing at the border and publish a traffic light system to show prevalence rates for different countries for travellers to consider.
A Government spokesman said: “The Home Affairs Select Committee are incorrect in their assertions. All of our decisions throughout the pandemic have been guided by the science, with appropriate measures introduced at the right time to keep us all safe.
“And with passengers numbers significantly reduced, the scientific advice was clear that quarantine measures for those entering the country from abroad would be most effective when the UK has a lower level of infection.
“Therefore, as the virus was brought under control here, border measures were introduced on June 8 to protect public health and help avoid a second peak that would overwhelm the NHS.”

Mum up for top award for genius 'therapy' idea which boosts mental health
Mental-health worker Laura Drysdale knows the importance of looking into the past to help people move forward.
What’s unusual is just how far back she goes – in some cases centuries.
Laura, 62, is founder of the Restoration Trust. Based in Cromer, Norfolk, the National Lottery-funded charity uses ancient British heritage sites and museums as a way to help overcome the debilitating effects of mental illness.
"Our members deal with the gamut of emotions, from low self-esteem to suicidal thoughts," says Laura.
Laura worked as a textile conservator, repairing textiles for museums, and then for English Heritage, before retraining as a mental health support worker in her late 40s. She had herself once suffered from anxiety and depression.

"Fans had been able to read a few chapters years ago, so they’d had a taster of what is to come but wanted more. Now, more than a decade after that leak, they get to hear Edward’s full story.
"At a time when bookshops have only fairly recently reopened, we hope this will be a really significant publication for retailers."
The book comes seven years after the end of the Twilight Saga of films, which ended in 2013 with Breaking Dawn: Part 2.
The films made stars of the likes of Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Anna Kendrick, but what happened to them after the films ended?
Kristen Stewart
The actress behind heroine Bella Swan briefly went into fantasy once again as the lead of Snow White and the Huntsman, but then pursued roles in independent and arthouse cinema.
After winning praise for her performances in Camp X-Ray and Still Alice, Kristen found great acclaim for her work with French director Olivier Assayas in The Clouds of Sils Maria (for which she won a Cesar Award) and Personal Shopper.

She returned to mainstream films with action film Charlie's Angels and horror Underwater, the latter of which was released earlier this year.
Kristen split from co-star Robert Pattinson in May 2013 after the end of the film series, going on to come out as bisexual and have romances with visual effects producer Alicia Cargile and model Stella Maxwell.
She is currently dating screenwriter Dylan Meyer, who she has been seeing since last year.
