Newspaper headlines: Joe Biden 'gets to work' and 'Trump the grump'

A smiling Joe Biden can be seen on the front page of the "i" - over the headline "Hello, Mr President", as the papers assess what his White House win will mean.

The Guardian says the president-elect faces a daunting challenge but is determined to hit the ground running - making coronavirus his top priority along with tackling unemployment, systemic racism and the climate crisis.

The Financial Times thinks he will reverse some of Donald Trump's signature policies and it highlights how he has promised to make his cabinet the most diverse in American history.

For the Daily Telegraph, the pressure is growing on Donald Trump to go quietly. Not only has the former Republican President - George W Bush - offered his congratulations to Joe Biden, but - the paper reports - he is being urged by the First Lady, Melania Trump, to concede.

Meanwhile, the Daily Express is hopeful that Joe Biden will do a trade deal with Britain.

But others question the president-elect's enthusiasm for an agreement because of the prime minister's past criticism of Barack Obama. The Huffington Post thinks some Democrats have not forgiven Boris Johnson for claiming four years ago that Mr Obama's part-Kenyan ancestry made him hostile to Britain.

According to the Times lead, the intelligence agency GCHQ has begun an offensive cyber-operation against propaganda which aims to undermine confidence in a coronavirus vaccine. The paper describes it as the latest move to counter activity linked to Moscow, attempting to exploit the pandemic; undermine the West and boost Russian interests.

The impact of Covid 19 on NHS staff makes the front page of the Daily Mirror. "We are all burnt out" is its headline as it covers a letter from 14 health unions to the prime minister, warning that without an immediate pay boost staff could quit in droves.

The Daily Mail says the BBC is in crisis because of the questions over the tactics used by Martin Bashir to get his famous interview with Princess Diana. It says that royal aides who claim their reputations were tarnished in the process may sue for serious damages and it quotes the former BBC chairman, Lord Grade, who has called for an urgent independent inquiry. The corporation says there will be an independent investigation and Bashir is currently signed off work by doctors.

And the Sun reports that Prince Harry was deeply saddened because his Remembrance Sunday wreath lay unused - as a result of a Palace ban on it being laid at the Cenotaph. According to the paper, palace chiefs rejected his request for the wreath to be placed on his behalf because he had quit royal duties in March.
