hello. this is bbc news with ben bland. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first the headlines. theresa may plays down talk of a landslide general election victory after the conservatives made major gains at local elections. campaigning in the west midlands, she said she was taking nothing for granted. labour will pledge not to raise income tax for those earning less than £80,000 a year. shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell will say it's part of a "personal tax guarantee" for 95% of taxpayers. the french election commission appeals to the media and the public not to pass on documents obtained by hackers who targeted the presidential candidate, emmanuel macron. voters will go to the polls tomorrow for the final round of the contest. the islamist militant group boko haram releases more than 80 schoolgirls it kidnapped three years ago. a nigerian government official said their release followed negotiations with their captors.

three men appear in court charged with the murder of businessman, guy hedger, who was shot dead at his home near ringwood in dorset. hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are katy balls, who's a political correspondent at the spectator and nigel nelson, political editor of the sunday mirror, and sunday people. tomorrow's front pages, starting with — the observer headlines on labour's plans to increase income tax for people earning more than £80,000, ifjeremy corbyn becomes the next prime minister the sunday telegraph has that same story and also reports that the european commission's own lawyers say a suggested 100 billion euro brexit divorce bill could not be legally enforced. the sunday times says

the move is in a bid to shore up labour's core support — as a new poll suggests the party has fallen 19 points behind the tories. the paper — which is publishing its annual rich list — also says brexit has seen the combined wealth of the country's 1,000 richest individuals surge. the sunday express says theresa may is to unveil a set of manifesto pledges which will serve as labour's death warrant. and the mail on sunday criticises a controversial drama to be aired on the bbc about the royal family. the bbc has defended the production as a ‘critically acclaimed and fictional play‘ which the mail has described as astonishingly good. and there we go. astonishingly good, oui’ and there we go. astonishingly good, our reviewers of the newspapers as

they will prove for you. let's start with the observer. this promise we will get from labour to tax £80,000 a year earners or, if you want to look at it the other way, not to tax 95% of people who earn less than that. exactly. we knew this policy was being mooted. they were trying to work out what action accounts is being wealthy and they were around the 70,000 mark, they said that 80,000 elite is not inflation, indecision. already online we have seen some labour figures quite happy with the depiction in the press. they say the focus should be on the 95% who will not be taxed. they say the focus should be on the 9596 who will not be taxed. what do you think about, nigel? is it that the newspapers will focus the this isa the newspapers will focus the this is a tax rise? it depends which

newspaper you read tomorrow. the observer seems to be general on this. the sunday telegraph is a bit more aggressive, as you would expect with their politics. two things here, first of all we do not know how he is going to do it. it will possibly bring in a new tax rates say at 45% which is currently only paid people earning over £150,000. and up them to 50%. the other thing we don't know is how much it is going to make. the one problem about taxing the rich, while i am in hugely in favour of that as a principal, it probably does not raise a lot of money because there are not many of them. it is the -- is it electorally significant? many people think it is a lot of money and think they should be taxed. a poll in the sunday times said that voters think that 100 k is what

cou nts voters think that 100 k is what counts as being wealthy. some mps may have a difficult time with this policy as they are in wealthy constituencies because it may seem like politics of envy. whatever rate you have, you don't think is terribly wealthy and then somebody else on the rich list actually looks hugely... the liberal democrats today have said they want an extra penny in the pound on tax to pay for more spending on the nhs. that seems to bea more spending on the nhs. that seems to be a sensible idea that people are prepared to pay extra tax if they know it is going to someone like the nhs. although when the lid democrats turn tried that with education, the voters were turned off. back to the telegraph. the divorce bill for the brexit. 100 billion euros we may have to pay or

that they may ask for. this story is saying that, actually, the european union could not even legally enforce this according to their own lawyers. this bill has been steadily going up. i would this bill has been steadily going up. iwould not this bill has been steadily going up. i would not be surprised that goes up any up. i would not be surprised that goes up any more up. i would not be surprised that goes up any more before the negotiations begin. david davis says he will not pay, and the european union lawyers have admitted that they cannot enforce that but the most illuminating thing in this story is the fact that downing street have called an international peace negotiator who played a key role in ending the 52 year civil war in colombia. just in case you did not think that was civil... if you need a peace negotiator to sort this out... it seems to be, we would not have paid, we would have paid that. it is quite good to know that this

is right, that it is not even legally enforceable by europe. will this end with a bit of old—fashioned haggling? you start off up there, we start down there... so we will up somewhere in the middle. there will bea somewhere in the middle. there will be a bill to pay and, in fact, as david davis says we will do that because our international reputation would be zero if we did not. but it will not be like this and right now just arguing over money. some brexiteers say we should not pay anything. but if theresa may gets a big majority does that make it easierfor her to big majority does that make it easier for her to compromise? big majority does that make it easier for her to compromise ?m big majority does that make it easier for her to compromise? if she has her own mandate and majority she will be left held to account by either side of the party. she will be able to make a deal and the rest of the party will have to go along with that, the majority, anyway. was that her motivation for calling the election? to free herself up and

make itself more independent from both wings of the party?|j make itself more independent from both wings of the party? i think she hopes that was the result. i think the motivation was that she thought she could win. on the brexit front, clearly if she is not interfered with by parliament, she can then get on with the negotiations herself and you can understand that she will wa nt you can understand that she will want a clear run at that one hopes then that commonsense will come into play. he not look like it when you stood at the steps of downing street and it accused europe of sabotaging the elections. hopefully that peace negotiator can calm things down. the sunday telegraph... because we will soon have the manifestoes, they have a story that theresa may is promising to terror the present mental health act if the tories are

re—elected and mental health first aid as will be provided for all schools, apparently, in a proposed overhaul. theresa may has spoken about how she wants to break down the stigma around mental health. i think there was a survey yesterday which said that two thirds of adults suffer from which said that two thirds of adults sufferfrom mental which said that two thirds of adults suffer from mental health which said that two thirds of adults sufferfrom mental health problems. by sufferfrom mental health problems. by targeting them as children you can hopefully deal with things before they become a problem. can hopefully deal with things before they become a problemlj think this will be one policy which will be very high for anybody to disagree with. the mental health act is outmoded, it goes back to 1983, it basically locks people up and it is locking people up a vulnerable do not need to be locked up. sometimes in police cells because there is nowhere for them to go. the idea of redrawing that is sensible. the second thing that she intends to do is use the equal opportunities legislation so people are protected in the workplace. at the moment, if

you have a mental health condition, it you only protected if it continues for 12 months. what this will do says the mental health conditions come and go, we will protect you when you have it. many things you sound quite good. and mental health as an issue is suddenly being that goes in a far more positive way after prince harry spoke about his grief over the death of his mother and so on. we have seen of his mother and so on. we have seen the royal family and their heads together campaign which has had a massive effect in getting young people to talk about it. it is a timely policy and does not time to be doing it. what else do we have? we have the express. they have more on the conservative party manifesto which, when do we expect that to come out? nigel, you either in the know. we expect it to come out one week on monday. but who knows? and

the sunday express, that manifesto will be a june revolution, do you get the headline? we have the out of hours gp surgeries, more doctors for that. well, they do need more doctors, we knew that was jeremy hunt idea. the mental health policy coming in, that will mean 10,000 more nhs nurses, another good thing. don't know how that will be paid for. but i tell people were getting fed up with this election, but not the readers of the express because that story covers four pages. and one of those promises of every child attending a local grammar school. the mental health policy in the gp

policy are widely popular with both the party and the public but the grammar school is harder because this is something that theresa may specifically wants. she has raised at the foreman was not a manifesto and she had opposition from her party. she will be hoping that her own personal mandate will mean she can own personal mandate will mean she ca n follow own personal mandate will mean she can follow through on this plan for every child to have the chance to attend a grammar like she did. so this puts her stamp on this conservative government in changing and losing some of the things that she did not agree with that in the cameron government. the things that should go for she could not get through cabinet, she now may be able to. i do expect to see some mps will not be happy about this. it should have a big majority which is what many of the polls and the pundits are predicting, are you one of the people who thinks that would not necessarily be healthy?” people who thinks that would not necessarily be healthy? i think there is unhealthy. a small majority of is the way to run a parliamentary democracy. you make people actually

fight for it. you also get the proper scrutiny in about legislation that you do not get when you have a thumping majority. ithink that you do not get when you have a thumping majority. i think it is unhealthy. but it is a democracy. if the country vote tory in huge numbers then you get a strong majority. what is wrong with that? well, that is democracy, you are right. interestingly, with the voting system which encourages things like this to happen, under proportional representation you get ukip mps the last election. an not certain that heading towards a 1—party state is good for the state. we have seen large majorities that have been overturned so there is still at chance for them to be held to account. the sunday times have their annual rich list which they bring out every year, telling us

about people who have an awful lot of money and how often they have even more money than they had before. apparently because of brexit, according to the sunday times, it has been a bonanza billionaires. richard getting richer because of brexit, it has given a boost. you can't see all the people at the top looks so so it is hard to how it is helped. a third helped because stock market shares have gone up because the pound went down after brexit. people who have shares are richer, basically. it does go down as if the world was going to end after brexit and the end of civilisation... it is not going to lalit badly for a few people. forget the £80,000 people, these are seriously rich people. so they will be in seriously rich people. so they will beinjohn seriously rich people. so they will be in john mcdonnell‘s seriously rich people. so they will be injohn mcdonnell‘s tax bracket? you would hope so. and someone who is quite well off ears... well, we

will show you a picture can probably see it. can our viewers get to this is? she is not looking like she normally does, to be fair, that is adele. to mark her birthday she decided to dress as a nanna from a sketch comedy show. ageing with grace. we do not understand why. it does not explain why this is happening beyond that was the way she chose to celebrate her 29th birthday.
