Newspaper headlines: Vaccine 'celebrity drive' and PM's call for resolve

The Daily Express describes Boris Johnson as offering an "olive branch" to MPs opposed to the tougher coronavirus restrictions in England.

The i estimates that up to 100 MPs are considering voting against the tighter rules.

To head off a Commons rebellion, the Daily Telegraph reports that the prime minister is going to offer hard-hit pubs and restaurants extra cash.

The Daily Mirror says research suggests that the hospitality business could lose out on £7.8bn because of the restrictions.

While the Sun points out that friends will be able to meet in just over 700 of England's more than 38,000 pubs from Wednesday.

Research by the Financial Times suggests that the UK has spent more money fighting coronavirus than almost all comparable countries.

But the FT suggests that Britain "languishes" towards the bottom of tables of virus deaths and economic performance.

Economists blame the figures on delays in implementing lockdowns.

Celebrities who are deemed to be "sensible" are to be used to encourage people to have the Covid-19 vaccine, according to the Guardian.

No names have been confirmed but NHS communications staff apparently suggest the footballer, Marcus Rashford, would be ideal.

Farming subsidies phase out

The Times reports that the government is promising to transform England's landscape with its post-Brexit plans to phase out farming subsidies.

Its aim is to offer money for restoring wilder landscapes and achieving "enhanced beauty".

The Telegraph suggests farmers could be paid for producing free range eggs or grass fed beef.

The Guardian notes that the wealthiest landowners - such as the Duke of Westminster or Sir James Dyson - could face the sharpest cuts under the new scheme.

But the National Farmers' Union raises concerns in the Times that the speed of the reduction in direct subsidies could make some farms unviable and undermine domestic food production.

The ethics watchdog will reportedly investigate whether Chancellor Rishi Sunak breached the ministerial code

Both the Guardian and Mirror report that the government's ethics watchdog is to investigate whether Chancellor Rishi Sunak has breached the ministerial code by not declaring a large part of his wife's fortune.

It follows reports by the Guardian that she has a £430m shareholding in Infosys - the IT firm founded by her father.

The Treasury said the PM's independent adviser on ministerial interests was satisfied that Mr Sunak had followed the code to the letter.

Dave Prowse tributes

Many papers offer tributes to the actor, Dave Prowse, best known for playing Darth Vader in the original Star Wars films.

The Times obituary suggests this part and his role as the Green Cross Code Man brought him "cult status".

His daughter tells the Sun that he died of coronavirus.

And finally, there's an uplifting tale from the Times about Dexter the police dog who flunked his training as a sniffer dog.

The black Lab was too sociable. But his gregarious nature has been put to good use as he is now used as a "wellbeing dog" who can apparently bring a smile "to the most gnarled detective or beat cop".
