"A brutal, sweeping crackdown against the people of Hong Kong, intended to destroy the freedoms they were promised." That's how US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi sums up the new security law imposed by Beijing on the territory. The House has unanimously backed sanctions penalising banks that do business with Chinese officials. Boris Johnson says the passing of the law is a "clear and serious breach" of a 1985 declaration guaranteeing certain freedoms under a "one country, two systems" agreement, for 50 years from when British rule over its former colony ended in 1997.

The prime minister said up to three million Hong Kong residents would be offered the chance to settle in the UK - and ultimately apply for citizenship. Notably, no MP spoke against the plan, says our political editor Laura Kuenssberg. The handover of Hong Kong, she says, "took place on the basis that its partial democracy and market economy would be respected. But that's been eroded so visibly in recent years".

Parents, pupils and teachers will get much-anticipated clarity later on how full-time education in England will resume in September. The Department for Education is expected to confirm safety plans based on reducing contact, rather than social distancing. That means year groups being kept apart in "bubbles", with distinct start, finish, lunch and break times. Attendance will be compulsory - with the threat of fines for parents whose children don't comply - and most GCSE or A-level students will be expected to continue with all of their intended subjects. However, the use of protective bubbles means if there is an infection - either in a class or a year group - all the children could have to be sent home.

If the prospect of hearing spine-tingling live music again is getting you through lockdown, beware a warning from 1,500 artists. Dua Lipa, Sir Paul McCartney and Skepta are among musicians to have signed an open letter warning of "mass insolvencies" as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, with gigs and festivals unlikely to return until 2021. Those behind the letter say there have already been "hundreds of redundancies" across venues, agencies and promoters. They want a "clear, conditional timeline" for reopening venues without social distancing, as well as financial support and a VAT exemption on ticket sales. The government says it's working on guidance and that much of the industry has already taken advantage of "unprecedented financial assistance" via loans and the furlough scheme.

Events in Hong Kong appear on several front pages, with the Financial Times reporting that Boris Johnson has condemned Beijing's sweeping new security law for the territory as a "serious breach" of the 1985 UK-China handover agreement. The PM has vowed to honour a pledge to open the path to citizenship for almost three million Hong Kong residents, the Times reports. Meanwhile, the i predicts a U-turn on the involvement of Chinese firm Huawei in the UK's 5G network - and Chinese retaliation against British business. The Daily Mirror's front page is taken up by the images of dozens of NHS workers lost to coronavirus, as the UK prepares to mark the 72nd anniversary of the NHS. Other papers focus on job losses caused by the pandemic, and the possibility of further local lockdowns.
