very because the fan base work very, very down to the duns of the end of last season. everyone was very dejected and it was a not great place to play it st mary's and russell coming in had a big jump on his hands a lot players and is club captainjames ward—prowse. and then a lot of players out on loan as well so a big transition and to bring some bodies and is well for the championship but he has been absolutely magnificent. they have gotten really good players and some good young players as well and some good young players as well and if they can mix with some experience and bring some more leaders in the door, negative cells are really good chance it for me need to find ten wins in the premier league. really important to go and beat the bottom ten sides if you can and that's where you get your points and that's where you get your points and i think if we all come together, the owners back manager and we back the owners back manager and we back the team and the manager, we have a really good chance next season. to cricket, and england's one—day captain jos buttler will almost certainly miss the third t20 against pakistan, having left the squad in cardiff for the birth of his and his wife's third child. there had been the potential for buttler to miss some

of the upcoming t20 world cup taking place in the west indies and the usa had the baby arrived later, but it's now likely he'll be available for the whole tournament, which gets going on sunday. in buttler�*s absence, moeen ali will captain the side with willjacks likely to open the batting, and jacks says he can't wait to play a role both against pakistan and at the world cup. i'm really excited. i'm good with this obviously since i was little boy, and i've missed out on the last few, which had me a little bit. i really wanted to be there and i'm really wanted to be there and i'm really excited for this hopefully would go there and when. we are defending champions of this world cup and we will do his will as we can and this is all about preparation for what's going to happen in a week to ten days�* time. australia will be one of the favourites to lift the trophy, and they've had some good news of their own. captain mitch marsh has declared himself fit and ready to go despite suffering a hamstring injury whilst playing in the indian premier league. australia take on oman in their tournament opener in barbados onjune the 5th. probably still a little while off. i

will start — probably still a little while off. i will start bowling hopefully soon and get — will start bowling hopefully soon and get to this practice game as a batter_ and get to this practice game as a batter and — and get to this practice game as a batter and then wrap it up. but one of the _ batter and then wrap it up. but one of the beauties of being captured is i don't _ of the beauties of being captured is i don't have to bowl myself as the lucky _ i don't have to bowl myself as the lucky we — i don't have to bowl myself as the lucky we have so many options to bowl_ lucky we have so many options to bowl is _ lucky we have so many options to bowl is so — lucky we have so many options to bowl is so much talent so all our planning, — bowl is so much talent so all our planning, it— bowl is so much talent so all our planning, it allows me to be really clear_ planning, it allows me to be really clear on— planning, it allows me to be really clear on that. i will bowl when i need _ clear on that. i will bowl when i need to— clear on that. i will bowl when i need to bowl. and finally, it was a day to remember for manchester city and their fans on sunday as they celebrated their premier league title with an open—top bus parade, but it was nearly a day to remember for all the wrong reasons forjack grealish. the city star came very close to taking a tumble off the top of the bus as the vehicle moved while grealish was celebrating. thankfully he was able to be dragged back into the bus with no injuries sustained ahead of this summer's euros. phew. a reminder of our top story before we go — iii—time champion rafael nadal is out of the french open.

he was beaten in the first round in straight sets by alexander zverev, but post—match, nadal didn't commit to this french open being his last despite speculation he will retire at the end of this season. that's all from sportsday. for me, and the rest of the team, we will see you soon, bye—bye. thanks to market all the team in salford. back to the election campaign now. a short while ago, we brought you rishi sunak�*s speech to supporters. let's focus now on the labour leader, sir keir starmer. he focused on national security, promising a ioo—day review

looking at all of the threats facing britain, and promising stability if labour wins power. our political correspondent iain watson was watching the speech and sent us his analysis of what the labour leader said. sir keir starmer came to this part of west sussex because here, labour won control of the local council for the first time in history earlier this month. he wanted to signal that some people who'd perhaps always voted conservative in the past could now be persuaded to vote labour this time. but equally, he knew, even though there's a big poll lead, there's still a lot of votes to be won in the next few weeks. and he wanted to try to reassure wavering voters that it was now safe to vote for his party. so he concentrated on issues that perhaps conservative voters perhaps more than most would have prioritised in the past, issues such as national security. he committed labour, of course, to support for nato and nuclear weapons, to tackling illegal immigration, with a new border force being set up within 100 days of labour taking power if they win the next election. and above all, that labour could be

trusted with the nation's finances and there'd be no increases in income tax. he emphasised those messages, but he also recognised he had to reintroduce himself to the public as the election gets under way, perhaps those only tuning in and taking seriously the choice between the party leaders. so he talked about growing up also in a nontraditional labour area in surrey. "as english as it gets," is how he described his hometown of oxted. and again, i suppose the message was that if he could grow up in an area like that, where beneath the affluence, there was also a great deal of struggling going on by people who found it difficult to cope with the cost of living, then perhaps other people in similar areas could now look to labour to stand up for them. he concluded his very long speech, i think, for a campaign, around half an hour, with the commitment that he would fight on behalf of people who perhaps were just looking at keir starmer for the first time and wondering not

whether he was an opposition leader, but whether he could be a future prime minister, trusted on policy and trusted as a person. rishi sunak has dismissed sir keir�*s speech as "waffle", saying "our country needs bold action, not waffle". i'm joined now by the shadow home secretary, yvette cooper. thank you very much forjoining us on bbc news. as part of that speech, sir keir announced a 100 a national security review. you will be home security review. you will be home security if you win elections that entail? , , , ., ., entail? everything depends on home security and — entail? everything depends on home security and we _ entail? everything depends on home security and we will— entail? everything depends on home security and we will want _ entail? everything depends on home security and we will want the - entail? everything depends on home security and we will want the best i security and we will want the best for everyone but happy based on the bed rock _ for everyone but happy based on the bed rock. economic security, border security— bed rock. economic security, border security and — bed rock. economic security, border security and all of those have been undermined everything has become very chaotic go to the conservatives. the purpose of having this national security review is to focus _ this national security review is to focus on — this national security review is to focus on the real changing threats that we _

9 degrees in edinburgh. more typically, it'll be into double figures. so the low pressure will be moving slowly across the uk during the course of tuesday, and at the very least, it's going to bring a lot of cloud. the last place to see the thick cloud and the rain will be the north—east of scotland. but i think for most of us, it's a pretty cloudy day with rain at times, temperatures nothing spectacular, between around 15—18 degrees. and the evening tomorrow is also looking fairly cloudy. but i think towards the end of the day, we will see some sunshine developing, so at least the second half of tuesday is looking a little bit better. now, that low pressure will continue to move away towards the east early on wednesday. but behind it, i think showers will develop from eastern scotland, the borders, all the way towards yorkshire and lincolnshire. really quite heavy showers here. but out towards the west, i think the weather's looking absolutely fine for wales, for south—western england, for northern ireland, too, plenty of sunny weather and relatively light winds. now, let's have a look at the forecast for thursday. the winds will be blowing

in from the north, fairly cool winds for some of us. showers will develop, i think, this time in central parts of the uk, down that spine. so anywhere from the lowlands of scotland, across the pennines, the peak district, may catch a few showers on thursday. there could be one or two in the midlands as well. temperatures about the same. now, if you're wondering about the end of the week and into this coming weekend, well, here's some good news — high pressure is expected to establish itself across the uk. we're not promising particularly warm weather, but at least it's going to be generally dry and really quite sunny. if you're checking the apps, they should already indicate that weather settling as we head into friday, saturday and sunday. i mean, look at that in belfast — lots of sunshine and really not bad at all on the thermometer.

live from london, this is bbc news. after his first major speech of the general election campaign, labour's leader says his party will deliver security, stability and, above all, change. well, i think if you look at this changed labour party, there's no doubt that the labour party now is fundamentally different to the labour party of 2019, when we lost so badly. the conservative leader rishi sunak defends his plan to bring back a form of compulsory national service. this modern form of national service will mean young people get the skills and opportunities they need, which will serve them very well in life. it's going to foster a culture of service. hello, i'm adam fleming, host of the bbc�*s daily news podcast newscast. you will shortly be able to see us recording today's episode, where we'll tell you everything you need to know from the campaign trail.
