“fur mfr " hfur " i... talking about, saying the united kingdom border could move from calais. the french passports, thatis from calais. the french passports, that is checked in the united kingdom, and britain's checked at france. that would have implications for lorry drivers, susceptible to people jumping on the vehicles. the isaid people jumping on the vehicles. the i said that is in question. but we have both looked at the paper. we cannot see the quotations. theresa may was asked about it, she said it was of mutual benefit to both parties. inevitably, this is going to bea parties. inevitably, this is going to be a bone of contention, because you have got such strong feelings, particularly from lorry drivers. but also the french public, because they

blame a lot of people, the united kingdom's fault. it could be easy, for macron to signal that france should come ahead of everybody else. steal clothes from the national front. move the border to dover! manchester? london? one of the finest minds! it is a bilateral agreement. it has got no standing, it sort of... works. what do the french get out of this? not a lot, as far as french get out of this? not a lot, as farasi french get out of this? not a lot, as far as i can see. presumably, other favours from the uk. hello! this is going to be on the table at
10:47 pm
some stage, because television pictures can be shocking. and lorry drivers get upset. i think the point that you made earlier, macron has got this battle, even though he won 60/40. an awful lot of people voted le pen. an awful lot didn't vote. in general, a lot of people have said that the european project is by contract. i would say, among the people who want to see the european union carrying on as they want, it is more a pause for breath. and we have got the french parliamentary elections next month. and he would argue that he wants to see the reformed parliament as well. staying with immigration, the express. page five. going to take control of the

10:49 pm
before the election, with brexit looming, not going to have any excuses. but also making the point, that because of brexit, she can take this down to the tens of thousands. but many economists would say, that if you try to lower this number, in a couple of years, you are going to do some damage. it has got to be gradual. even david davis has said that we need migrants, for the hill service, science, and other sectors. you have got the danger, that this is about the conservative party, trying to out ukip ukip. and they do not need to do that. we saw that from the council elections. the same day that theresa may has said this,
10:50 pm
ukip said we want a net migration figure over five years of zero. i do not think even the hardest brexiteers would say that. it needs 100,150,000. brexiteers would say that. it needs 100, 150,000. and those people who voted for brexit would say that they wa nt voted for brexit would say that they want control of the borders. the guardian, jeremy corbyn pins hopes on housing reform. successive governments, going back to tony blair have tried and talked about building more and more homes. never met the target. jeremy corbyn thinks that he can do this. the numbers look terrible for the labour party. what if you dig deep, is the only issue that they can compete, housing. it goes up the income

no details. where is the land? who pays? he has been talking about 5 million homes. the problem, and is not just people million homes. the problem, and is notjust people waiting for tinsel —— council housing, it is a lovely thing to say, but she was how you're going to do that. am afraid, it points back to the failure of tony blair, all of that team, not the building and replacing council faces. and not doing anything to benefits, the housing benefits. i think they thought it would have been the benefits claimants, suffering. the conservatives have responded. theresa may facing backlash over the energy crisis.
