south done enough to convince south africans to keep it in control of parliament. music plays. and bbc radio 1's big weekend gets under way, with record—breaking brit award winner raye set to headline today. yes, she is expected on stage at nine o'clock. 35,000 people expected here in luton today. four—day two of radio 1's big weekend. hello, i'm lewis vaughanjones. we start this hour here in the uk where party leaders are kicking off a weekend of campaigning around the country ahead of the general election on lithjuly. so far today rishi sunak has been in the north of england where he delivered his message to voters at a pub. it comes after the cabinet minister michael gove announced that he was joining a growing list of conservative mps who will be standing down at the election.

meanwhile, the labour leader keir starmer has been out meeting voters in the west midlands where he told voters that stabilising the economy would be a number one priority. here's our political correspondent helen catt. the labour leader arriving at a football club in the west midlands, here to put the boot into the tories�* economic record and to explain what a labour government would do. stability is change. it's strange to say that in 2024 but a stable economy has to be the first step of an incoming labour government, and that is what we will make an absolute priority if we are privileged enough to come in to serve. it comes as a leading think tank, the ifs, urged both labour and the tories to be open about the tough choices they will face over the country's finances if elected. for rishi sunak it was a low—key visit, a cuppa with veterans in the north of england. he answered some gentle concerns about his drenching in downing street... it was wet. the amount of people who've given me an umbrella in the last couple of days.

..but no questions from journalists. instead, a treasury minister defended the government. inflation when they came in was 11.1%, now it's down to almost target, 2.3%, and that doesn't happen by accident. it's not all the government working in partnership with the bank of england. we are now back into a situation where things can start to get better. the liberal democrat leader, ed davey, was in chichester harbour in west sussex to announce plans for a new water regulator and to highlight his campaign issue of sewage dumping. today's campaign visits have had a more laid—back vibe in an election which is going to be very far from plain sailing. helen catt, bbc news. and a reminder, you can follow all the latest on the general election on our website. we're running a live page with continuous updates.

like the journalist. events like this are really keen because if you have thousands of people coming out to listen at the stadium it shows south africans across the country that you have a strong base of support and these images are relayed around the world and across the country here in south africa. they also bring out volunteers and activists and when they leave here they go back to their communities and they will be able to campaign for the party and in this case it is the anc. the anc is the focus in this and it is under pressure because it has been in powerfor three decades now, 30 years since the end of apartheid. it has cemented its party in the legacy of country as a crucial player in bringing an end to apartheid, but there are real questions as to its legacy, what it has done to transform this country. there are questions about whether it has done enough to providejobs. this country has high unemployment rates. whether

it has provided enough health care services. and when cyril ramaphosa took to the stage, the president, this was a key question that he needed to address. 0ver over the next five years, working with 0ver the next five years, working with all_ over the next five years, working with all south africans, we will implement a jobs plan to put more south _ implement a jobs plan to put more south africans to work. we will build _ south africans to work. we will build our — south africans to work. we will build our industries and invest in an inclusive _ build our industries and invest in an inclusive economy. we will tackle the high _ an inclusive economy. we will tackle the high cost of living. we will invest— the high cost of living. we will invest in— the high cost of living. we will invest in our people and provide services — invest in our people and provide services that our people need. we will continue to defend our democracy and advance the freedom that we _ democracy and advance the freedom that we fought so hard. we will continue — that we fought so hard. we will continue to build a better africa and a _

being seen as crucial, for the first time the anc could lose their majority in parliament and if they were to stay in power they would have to form a coalition government either with a party like the eff or with the democratic alliance. now, they have different views, especially when it comes to the economy. there will be a lot of haggling and negotiations that will have to take place before they agree on forming a government. nevertheless, the message from the anc is they are not trying to form a coalition government, their aim is to remain the dominant party in south africa.— to remain the dominant party in south africa. ., ., ,, , ., south africa. catherine, thank you ve much south africa. catherine, thank you very much for— south africa. catherine, thank you very much for that. _ we are leaving the elections in south africa and heading back to the uk. we can speak to sarahjones. thank you for coming on the programme. i thank you for coming on the programme-— thank you for coming on the rouramme. ~ ., .., ., y thank you for coming on the rouramme. ~ ., ., , , ., programme. i know the economy is an issue on the — programme. i know the economy is an issue on the campaign _ programme. i know the economy is an issue on the campaign trail. _ programme. i know the economy is an issue on the campaign trail. we - programme. i know the economy is an issue on the campaign trail. we will. issue on the campaign trail. we will come to that. first, i want to ask

you about this idea that we heard from keir starmer, votes for 16 and 17—year—olds, a promise that if labour win they will introduce it in general elections. we have heard ideas like this before and it happens in other countries as well. the criticism that comes up is that if you factor in the fact that younger people tend to skew more left, tend to vote labour, this is a cynical, political ploy. what is your response to that? hat cynical, political ploy. what is your response to that?- cynical, political ploy. what is your response to that? not at all and i your response to that? not at all and i think— your response to that? not at all and i think we _ your response to that? not at all and i think we know _ your response to that? not at all and i think we know that - your response to that? not at all and i think we know that the - and i think we know that the electorate is changing and we can't take anything for granted with any age or any geographical area or tight really any more. what the point is here is that when you are 16 can go out to work and you can start paying your taxes and it only seems right and fair that you should be part of that conversation about who runs the country and that you should have a say. i go into schools a lot, and as you can imagine there

is a local mp and talk to young people who are interested in politics, they really are. we want that interest you continue, we want people to feel like they have a stake in how their society runs. we want people to feel like they have the power that people do as they come up to the general election, that power to change our country for the future. i think it is right that we should do that from the age of 16. if you canjoin we should do that from the age of 16. if you can join the army, you should be able to vote. 50 16. if you can join the army, you should be able to vote.- 16. if you can join the army, you should be able to vote. so if labour win, we should be able to vote. so if labour win. we will— should be able to vote. so if labour win, we will see _ should be able to vote. so if labour win, we will see that _ should be able to vote. so if labour win, we will see that change. - should be able to vote. so if labour win, we will see that change. let'sl win, we will see that change. let's talk about the economy, an issue front and centre for many voters. the desire for the labour party is to project an image of credibility of course. on that, what is the difference between labour and conservatives? many of the statements we have heard already sound pretty similar. the starting point is the conservatives have left the country worse off after 1a years than when they arrived. their record

is appalling and that is on a number of fronts, partly because of the way they ran the economy. growth was very sluggish over that whole period, wages did not rise properly, and it is partly because of the chaotic way they have run the government, whether that is a liz truss crashing the economy, whether it is borisjohnson and the psychodrama that was his premiership, orwhether psychodrama that was his premiership, or whether it is rishi sunak making unfunded tax promises, not doing the right thing in trying to grow the economy. so there is a big difference and a big choice. growth was not strong enough because of psychodrama is rather than things like covid... find of psychodrama is rather than things like covid- - -— like covid. .. and the ukraine war. you are right. _ like covid. .. and the ukraine war. you are right, those _ like covid. .. and the ukraine war. you are right, those are _ like covid. .. and the ukraine war. you are right, those are valid - you are right, those are valid points. there have been big global shocks in this period as well. but if we look at other countries around the world we can see other countries recovering faster and having less of a shock than we did and there are

structural problems in the way that we run our economy. the starting point is to bring some stability to make sure we have a real grip on our public finances. we set up things like the office for value for money and make sure the 0br have the powers so that they can publish their forecasts whenever there are physical events, those kind of thing that will give that stability. but everyone can agree we want growth. everyone will say we want to grow the economy, but there are arguments about how you do that. they not believe in having an industrial strategy, in having a plan for the country, they are ideal logically opposed to it. if you look at america, the eu, china, countries have an industrial strategy where they plan for the long term, what they plan for the long term, what they need to grow the economy, what skills they need, what areas need investment, what industries need investment, what industries need investment, and that is what a labour government will do. you said stabili a labour government will do. you said stability a couple _ labour government will do. you said stability a couple of— labour government will do. you said stability a couple of times _ labour government will do. you said stability a couple of times but - labour government will do. you said stability a couple of times but if - stability a couple of times but if you look at the economy right now,

chaos and through the plans that we have to run the economy and to grow the economy we can make sure our public services have the funding that they need, whether that is the 6500 teachers we want to recruit, or whether that is the waiting list and hospital appointments we want to bring down in the health service. there is a very different proposition that we have through things like our national wealth fund that should create 650,000 jobs all around the uk in green energy and for the future. that is what other countries are doing.— for the future. that is what other countries are doing. sarah jones, treat to countries are doing. sarah jones, great to have _ countries are doing. sarah jones, great to have you _ countries are doing. sarah jones, great to have you on. _ 0ur correspondent aruna iyenga is in winchester where the libral democrats' campiagn is underway. what is happening there? i what is happening there? i have been walkin: in what is happening there? i have been walking in this — what is happening there? i have been walking in this beautiful— what is happening there? i have been walking in this beautiful green - walking in this beautiful green field in winchester interviewing ed davey, the leader of the lib dems.

a weakened ukrainian front line. now it's time for a look at today's sport. hello from the bbc sport centre. we'll start with the fa cup final where manchester united are taking on the holders manchester city at wembley. it could be erik ten hag's final match in charge with reports emerging he'll be sacked whatever the result. we're about ten minutes into the second half and it's currently 2—0 to united. alejandro garnacho opened the scoring for united before kobbie mainoo added a second. city have hit the bar in the last few minutes from erling haaland. they are hoping to win back—to—back doubles but they have a big task on their hands in the final half an hour. the scottish cup final is also taking place with glasgow rivals rangers and celtic battling it out at hampden park.

they're in to the second half there also and it's still goalless. bbc sport understands that vincent kompany has agreed a deal in principle to become the new bayern munich coach. the german side moved for kompany after a series of rejections in their search for a successor to thomas tuchel. kompany�*s new deal is believed to run through until 2027, with bayern set to pay burnley over £10m in compensation. it's also been confirmed that manchester united's record goalscorer wayne rooney has been appointed as the new head coach of plymouth argyle. rooney is keen to re—establish his reputation after a disastrous spell at birmingham city when he lost nine games out of 15. it's his fourth managerial role since retiring three years ago. yes, really excited. i think, obviously to go in as argyll�*s head coach. it was a full process with a

lot of managers interviewed for the job and, thankfully, the club found i was the best person for the job and i am excited to get started. england and pakistan are continuing their preparations for next month's t20 world cup. after the first match of the series was abandoned due to bad weather, this one is under way at edgbaston. england have fast bowler jofra archer back in their line up. pakistan won the toss and put england in to bat and they've posted 183 for 7 from their 20 overs. the captainjos buttler smashing 84 from 51 balls. pakistan have just begun their chase, but moeen ali has moved —— removed mohammed reisman already. charles leclerc will start sunday's monaco grand prix in pole position. the ferrari driver claimed pole at his home race for the third time in his career and his team's 250th in their history. 0scar piastri will line up alongside him on the grid for mclaren. the other ferrari of

carlos sainz was third. the french open starts on sunday with many expecting it to be 1a time champion rafael nadal�*s last roland garros. nadal has said he expects to retire later in 2024, but on the eve of the tournament, the spaniard is not ruling out extending his career. he will turn 38 during the tournament but says he's been encouraged by his form and fitness in recent weeks. it isa it is a big, big chance it will be my last roland garros but if i have to tell you it is 100% my last roland garros, sorry, but i will not because i cannot predict what is going on. my personalfeeling is that one month and a half ago it was without a doubt, but in some way i don't want to close 100% the door. it's been dubbed one of the biggest grudge matches in british boxing history.

jack catterall will get his chance for revenge when he faces josh taylor in a re—match of their light welterweight clash on saturday. the pair fought in 2022 with many observers believing that catterall won the fight, but the judges gave it in favour of taylor, who was then the undisputed king of the division, although he's since lost the belts. catterall has long called for a re—match and will finally get the chance to avenge that controversial loss. and that's all the sport for now. just to say rangers have scored against celtic in the scottish cup final, so 1—0 there. singapore airlines says it has decided not to serve meals on its planes when the seat belt sign is on. the announcement comes after one passenger died and dozens were injured during severe turbulence on a singapore airlines flight from london to singapore. extreme temperatures are continuing

to grip parts of pakistan. the punjab and sindh provinces are the worst affected. schools are closing a week earlier for the school holidays, but exams will go ahead. people have been told to avoid direct sunlight and stay indoors during the hottest part of the day. to ukraine now and officials say russian missiles have hit a busy diy store in kharkiv, killing at least two people and injuring others. the shop is in a residential area and ukrainian officials say russia also hit a school and other buildings in the city. president zelensky says more than 200 people could have been inside the diy store. the mayor of kharkiv says there are a large number of people missing following the strike. earlier this month, russian forces began a renewed offensive in the kharkiv region, in an attempt to break through a weakened ukrainian front line. jeremy bowen is in kharkiv and said this update. i jeremy bowen is in kharkiv and said this update-— this update. i have 'ust been talkin: this update. i have 'ust been talking to h this update. i have 'ust been talking to the _ this update. i have just been talking to the mayor - this update. i have just been talking to the mayor and - this update. i have just been talking to the mayor and he | this update. i have just been - talking to the mayor and he said this happened about four o'clock in the afternoon, which as i speak to

you now is a couple of hours ago. two people were killed, he says, here in the parking area. there are, i think, 11 employees of the business who are missing at the moment. it is a diy superstore, an obvious place you would think for civilians to go on a saturday afternoon. 0ne civilians to go on a saturday afternoon. one of the strange incongruities of the war is that in a way a modicum of normal life does go on while the war continues, so people were out doing what they have to do when this place was hit, they say, by two russian glide bombs. this will underline the anxiety that ukrainians feel about not having suitable air defences. president zelensky has said it so repeatedly and he has said so again now after this, that ukraine needs to be able

to defend itself and of course it relies on its western allies for doing all of that. from the russian point of view this is another sign of their growing strength and the way in which they are taking advantage of what appears to be a window of opportunity for them to up their military effort while ukraine waits for the kind of reinforcements of weapons and ammunition that it wants from its allies, which have been held up particularly in the united states, and also while ukrainians train more troops. there is a manpower shortage as well. so this, quite frankly, at the moment is for the ukrainian is one of the most anxious periods since those first months after the full scale invasion more than two years ago. thanks tojeremy for invasion more than two years ago. thanks to jeremy for that.

here in the uk a plant that was extinct that was last seen in 1962 has returned to the uk. it was killed off by habitat loss. but it was saved by a schoolteacher who grew it in his garden and the national trust have now helped to bring the species back to the national park in snowdonia in wales where it was last seen. conservationists hope it will spread widely again. many people dream about turning left as they board a flight into the first—class bit, but a new airline has launched a first—class for dogs. barker bear took off for its maiden flight from new york to los angeles with ten dogs and their owners on board. prices start at $6,000 for a us flight and it is $8,000 for a one—way ticket from new york to

london. 0n one—way ticket from new york to london. on board there is a spa for the dogs as well as tasty treats and even old shoes as well. that is it, you are watching bbc news. radio 1's big weekend kicked off yesterday for a jam—packed bank holiday, a warning to our viewers, the pictures in this material might include some flashing images. let's speak to bbc newsbeat presenter pria rai over at the festival in luton. as you can hear, it's a music festival and we can't hear anything, which is not ideal. apologies for that. we will be back in luton for the music festival a little later. let's take a look at the weather. it

is a bit warmer today, more sunshine around, but it is not dry everywhere. the headline for the rest of the bank holiday weekend is it is going to be a mixture of warm sunshine, but we will have a heavy and thundery showers as well. this is what has been happening recently. this cloud is bringing in some rain and we have this cloud spoiling the weather in east anglia and move into lincolnshire and up to the north—east of england. we could make 20 degrees around the moray firth, perhaps into merseyside and the london area as well where we are seeing some sunshine. there is that first area of cloud coming in from the north sea and that will bring heavy rain northwards into scotland overnight. this rain coming into the south—west will pivot northwards and eastwards across england and wales. it will turn wetter overnight as well and there's temperatures down to ten or 11. we start with those two areas of rain and they will move

their way northwards and eventually move away from scotland. following on from that we will get sunshine and showers. the showers could turn heavy and thundery. the greater risk will be across northern england and the midlands and perhaps into suffolk as well. these are the temperatures. because there are more showers, the temperatures will not be quite as high as today. it could make 19 across east anglia and the south—east. those thundery showers are still there into the early evening. then it clears away overnight. heading into bank holiday monday, we await more weather fronts coming in from the atlantic next week. still got low pressure close by and that will bring more showers. maybe not quite as well as earlier on for bank holiday monday. the heavy showers are in parts of scotland and there will be some showers elsewhere, but it is likely to be a better day across northern england and east anglia as well. the

around 16 or 17. there's temperatures will not change a great deal for the rest of next week. we will have a south—westerly wind and later in the week it will turn north—westerly. but the week ahead will remain unsettled. there will be sunshine at times, but there will be spells of rain and rain and showers and some on the heavy side. this is bbc news. the headlines... party leaders hit the campaign trail in the uk's general election amidst a growing exodus of conservative mps. campaigning out in west midlands — sir keir starmer says labour will lower the voting age to 16 if its party wins. ukraine says russia has struck a busy superstore in kharkiv, killing at least two people and injuring others. earlier, ukrainian officials said russia targeted the city in an overnight attack, damaging a school and numerous buildings.
