This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation with James O'Brien.

Very good morning to you. It's three minutes after 10, the 22nd of June 2020, and a continuing sense, I think, of almost surreal

unfamiliarity with the world around us. We're going to have a little look in today's program,

in the first hour at least, at what is likely to be normal when we come out the other end of this.

And it is when, it's not if, but I don't know if I'd put any money on when that when may be. As you just heard in the news there, a second victim of the suspected terror attack in Reading at the weekend has been named. We will, of course, bring you any further developments in that horrifying and heartbreaking story as and when they

emerge in the course of the morning, but you will understand some newspapers this morning to my

relatively well-educated I have come perilously close to flirting with contempt of court, but you

will understand, of course, that the legal

situation prevents us from engaging in any speculation and, well, indeed, in any substantive

or worthwhile discussion. But if news and facts emerge, I promise I will bring them to you

immediately. We begin with two stories that I think sit in alongside each other.

The first is about jobs, the Times reports this morning,

that half of the workforce fears for their job at the end of the crisis,

whatever that means.

And the more I think about it, the more I'm very conscious at the

moment of coming on the radio every morning and having an almost unleavened diet of bad and

or troubling news. But we have to reflect reality, don't we? So let's just trust each other to

conduct these conversations in a way that may allow room for a little

bit of humanity and a little bit of levity. But you can't duck away from the facts because you're

worried about the feelings that they may engender. So this story, really, I don't know why. I don't

know about you, but sometimes I feel I can read the same story on two different days and have a

completely different reaction. It sort of depends how the planets are aligned and how other things are feeling.
