Dear reader,

Saturday’s scenes in Parliament Square were a grim conclusion to more than a week of demonstrations in the capital. The Prime Minister has written in today’s Telegraph to condemn those “far-Right thugs” and to bring a measure of positivity to the debate. He also uses his column to announce a new commission on racial inequality. You can read it here.

Few people know more about viruses than Dr Peter Daszak. In a fascinating interview, he spoke to our Global Health Security team about the origins of Covid-19, how to prepare for the next pandemic and how much “wet” markets really matter.

In a new weekly series, The Future of... , The Telegraph’s journalists are looking beyond the short term to examine what's next for some of the most important people, institutions and challenges of the coming years. First up is Camilla Tominey, who takes a look at the future of the Queen as she approaches her platinum jubilee.
