The Papers: 'First local lockdown' and Johnson's 'New Deal'

Image caption The announcement that the lockdown will be tightened in Leicester following a rise in coronavirus cases in the city leads most of the front pages. The Daily Mirror describes the move as "Britain's first local lockdown", with the city's non-essential shops and schools forced to close again - except for vulnerable pupils and children of key workers. Image caption Pubs and restaurants in Leicester will not be able to reopen on 4 July with the rest of England and a proposed relaxation of shielding on 6 July has also been cancelled in the city, the Telegraph reports. The paper says the action was so sensitive for the government that its announcement was repeatedly postponed on Monday evening as a succession of meetings were held with cabinet ministers and local officials. Image caption Leicester's residents are also being advised to stay at home as much as possible and avoid all but essential travel, the Daily Mail reports. Meanwhile, business owners have spoken of their "despair" at the news, which will cost them "countless thousands of pounds", the paper says. Image caption The Metro says Leicester has been "left in limbo" by the announcement, noting that it came just days before pubs, restaurants and hairdressers were due to reopen across England. Health Secretary Matt Hancock said that while cases were falling in most parts of the country, they were "continuing to rise" in Leicester, with children "particularly impacted", the paper reports. Image caption Elsewhere, the Daily Express focuses on Boris Johnson's promise of a £5bn "new deal" to kick start the economic recovery after the coronavirus crisis. In a major speech on Tuesday, the prime minister is set to unveil plans for an "infrastructure revolution" to modernise hospitals, schools, roads, prisons, the courts, High Streets and town centres, the paper reports. Image caption The Times says the speech will invite comparisons with Franklin D Roosevelt's New Deal, which saw the US president use the full power of the state to restore American fortunes after the Great Depression. Mr Johnson's programme will also include a pledge to retrain those who have lost their jobs and "build, build, build", the paper adds. Image caption However, the Guardian says critics are likely to highlight that there is no new money in the announcement. The paper sees it as an attempt to "refocus" Mr Johnson's premiership, with No 10 "keen to restore their grip on the news agenda with upbeat messaging about the future". Image caption The Financial Times reports that investment banking fees have "rocketed" to a record $57bn in the first six months of the year. The paper says fees have been boosted by a series of lucrative debt sales as companies "grabbed cash" to tide them over the coronavirus crisis. Image caption Finally, the Daily Star reports that a statue of The Wurzels' frontman Adge Cutler has been "vandalised". Googly eyes have been stuck on to the tribute to the West Country singer, sparking "fury" from fans, according to the paper.

Like several others, the Daily Telegraph leads on the coronavirus lockdown being imposed in Leicester. It describes "alarm" among public health officials about the rise in cases in the city.

The Daily Mail says local business owners are in despair because the shutdown will cost them many thousands of pounds.

Many papers speculate about what has driven the surge, with the Daily Mirror sources citing the reopening of Leicester's textile industry in late April. The Times highlights the city's ethnic diversity, with several generations often living together under one roof.

The Sun says there are language barriers, high levels of diabetes and poverty among people from Indian and Asian backgrounds. The papers says adverts in multiple languages on television, radio and street signs will encourage people to stay at home.

Boris Johnson will attempt to wrap himself in the mantle of one of America's most revered Presidents, according to the Guardian, when he sets out an economic recovery plan for Britain later.

The Daily Express says the prime minister will promise to "bounce forward" with an "infrastructure revolution" - evoking Franklin D Roosevelt, who led the US out of the Great Depression in the 1930s.

The Financial Times is sceptical about such a comparison. It says FDR's New Deal spawned mega-projects such as the Hoover Dam - while the prime minister's list of priority projects includes repairing a bridge in Sandwell.

Paul Waugh - on the HuffPost UK website - suspects many people will be left cold by the American phrase - as they were when it was used by Jeremy Corbyn and Gordon Brown.

Meanwhile, the HuffPost says it has seen leaked details of the government's draft plans for reopening schools in England in September and its story is picked up by several papers.

The Telegraph highlights a "slimmed down" curriculum, to allow pupils more time to focus on core subjects such as English and maths.

The Daily Mail focuses on so-called "mega-bubbles", comprising entire secondary year groups, which could all go into isolation if just one pupil tests positive for coronavirus. The Department for Education tells the paper the full plans will be published later this week.

A damning account of President Trump's phone calls with world leaders appears on several news websites, after first being reported by CNN.

Sources have told the veteran Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein the president fawned over strongmen and bullied allies, especially women. He is said to have told Theresa May she was weak and lacked courage, and Angela Merkel she was stupid. The White House has dismissed the account, calling Mr Trump a "world class negotiator".

The Guardian picks up on a study suggesting racial bias is a significant problem in English football commentary.

The analysis - by a Danish research firm with the players' union, the PFA - found that players with lighter skin were more likely to be praised for "hard work" and "intelligence", the paper says. Darker-skinned footballers were apparently more often complimented for physical attributes, such as "power" or "pace".

The PFA explains to the Guardian these perceptions can shape a player's future career saying those hoping to go into management get an unfair advantage if they are deemed intelligent based on their skin tone.
