be too capital expenditure? would it be too privatised utilities? it would not be part of capital expenditure, there is no new capital expenditure, it isa there is no new capital expenditure, it is a financial transaction, it's below the line as far as the deficit as concerned as doesn't affect the deficit. so labour have got that wrong? they say it is coming under capital expenditure. if they are saying that that is wrong because there is no new capital investment. the capital investment has already been made. first of all in the public sector when the companies we re public sector when the companies were in the public sector back before i end the treasury sold them off, and by the private sector since they've been in the private sector, that capital expenditure has been made. what would happen is the government under labour would buy the capital stock from the private sector. it would purely be a financial transaction. there would be no impact on either public expenditure net investment or on the annual public sector net borrowing figures. 0k. annual public sector net borrowing figures. ok. we were talking to

emily thornberry, we will talk to her again emily thornberry, we will talk to heragain and emily thornberry, we will talk to her again and clear that up. how much do you think buying back the water utilities, for instance, would cost? it would depend on the market price at the time, or how it was set but we are talking about tens of billions of pounds. that would go on the public sector net debt, although, of course, it would also show up as an asset on the public sector's overall balance sheet. it is worth stepping back here. the question of whether we should borrow money to buy an asset should not be determined on whether we the public, the government, should spend public money to buy an asset, should not be determined by how it affects the debt or the deficit, because overall when you make that transaction... the question is would the asset be run better in the interests of taxpayers and consumers in the public sector or the private sector? that is the argument we should be having. my view is we did a terrible

job of privatising the industry and that has led to consumers and taxpayers being ripped off. but i don't think there is a very strong case for thinking that re—nationalisation now is the right way of dealing with that as opposed to better regulation. jonathan portes speaking to me, and we did speak to emily thornberry who made it clear that they believe that the payment or buying of utilities would come out of capital expenditure funds. the headlines on bbc news just after 6:45pm. jeremy corbyn has pledged to change the country for the better as he launches labour's general election manifesto in bradford. inflation has jumped general election manifesto in bradford. inflation hasjumped to its highest level for nearly four yea rs its highest level for nearly four years up to 2.4%, 2.7% pushed by energy prices, higher clothing costs and airfares. donald trump says he has

an "absolute right" to share information with russia, after stirring controversy by giving the russian foreign minister classified information. an update on the market numbers for you — here's how london's and frankfurt ended the day. and in the the united states this is how the dow and the nasdaq are getting on. back to one of our top stories now. president trump has defended his "absolute right" to discuss sensitive material on terrorism and airline safety, at a meeting with russia's foreign minister last week. this afternoon he has been holding talks with turkey's president recep tayyip erdogan at the white house and afterwards he reiterated his commitment to fighting terrorism. we had a very successful meeting with the foreign minister of russia. our fight is against isis, as general mcmaster said, i thought he said, andi mcmaster said, i thought he said, and i know he feels, we had a great meeting with the foreign minister. we are going to have a lot of great success we are going to have a lot of great su ccess over we are going to have a lot of great success over the next coming years and we want to get as many to help fight terrorism as possible and

that's one of the beautiful things happening with turkey. the relationship we have together will be unbeatable, so thank you all very much, i appreciate it. the president speaking in the last couple of hours oi’ so. police are spending a second day at a block of garages in essex, in their search for the body of daniellejones, a 15—year—old girl who disappeared in 2001. officers have been excavating areas of the garage complex in stifford clays in thurrock. marc ashdown reports. this is ground penetrating radar. if anything is detected under the concrete the digging begins. specialist search teams have been here now for nearly two days, and an assuming set of garages which could hold the key to finding daniel jones. police were tipped off earlier this year that there was suspicious activity here in 2001, around the time she vanished.

questions have been raised as to why these garages were not searched as pa rt these garages were not searched as part of the original investigation backin part of the original investigation back in 2001. this was one of hundreds of leads and tip—offs detectives received at the time. it was one of the most expensive police operations ever mounted. danielle jones disappeared on her way to school, her uncle stuart campbell was found guilty of abducting and murdering her. he was sentenced to life in prison but has never given any clue as to what happened to her. i would implore stuart campbell or anybody is that knows anything around danielle jones's disappearance, murder and where her bodyis disappearance, murder and where her body is to come forward and speak to us. body is to come forward and speak to us. her parents and the rest of her family have suffered unimaginably over the last 16 years, they deserve to know where their daughter is and be reunited with her. over the years this investigates and generated 8000 lines of inquiry with 1000 separate searches carried out. information about these garages is described as very credible and could finally solve the mystery which has haunted danielle jones's family for 16

yea rs. danielle jones's family for 16 years. marc ashdown, bbc news, essex. scientists from across the middle east including israeli campaigners say attitudes towards asian people with disabilities hoping to get married, need to change, the lab is designed to encourage collaboration between the nations. this machine acts as an equally powerful microscope. there are some 60 of these around the world and they are used for studying everything from pharmaceuticals to plants, to ancient remains. this is the first to be built in the middle east. what is the big deal, you might think? some of the countries involved in this project arejordan, egypt, turkey, cyprus, iran, and amazingly israel as well. one of the

people who has been steering this project to fruition is chris llewellyn smith, a british physicist. how amazed are you given the sort of countries involved? given how hostile they can be to each other, they're here you are today and the thing is starting to work? the scientists involved in sesame overlook the politics, they work together as scientists producing a facility that they want to use. if it's a time of particular tension in the region, of course, they can feel a little uncomfortable. but nothing serious has happened. did you ever wake up in the morning and hear the news of some new conflict in the middle east, some new source of tension and think surely the various partners will have to walk away now? not really because i had understood meeting them that they want this to happen, at least at the level of the scientists. the real problem has been finding the money. the countries of this region have science budgets you can hardly see

with a microscope, most of them. there have been many times in their history of this project when a rational person would have said let's give it up but it seemed so important we kept going and here we are today. we are launching the project, albeit with minimal supporting infrastructure, but it's going to work, it's producing science and it's a great moment. do you have to pinch yourselves now and again that actually you've pulled it off? i suppose so but that would sound a little bit arrogant! congratulations, chris llewellyn smith, thanks very much indeed. the real test comes now when teams of iranian, israeli, palestinian and turkish scientists come here to use the facility. it is meant to run for many years. david shukman reporting. a retired engineer seon jair, climbs the old man of coniston in the lake district every day, notjust to keep his body active, but also his mind. seon is coping with the symptoms of alzheimer's disease, and hopes staying active will keep

it at bay for longer. john maguirejoined him on one of his daily climbs. come rain or shine — and days don't come much wetter than this — you'll find sionjair on his beloved lakeland fells. four years ago he was diagnosed with alzheimer's, but walking these mountains every single day helps him manage his condition. it's keeping my brain ticking overfor a start, because it's getting oxygen around the brain cells of the left, the brain cells that are left, if you like, and that's enabling me to feel psychologically a lot better and it's also helping me to feel as though i have still got something that i can do and cope with on a day—to—day basis. and so long as i can keep doing this — coming out to the moutains and enjoying the countryside, and the physical activity as well — then i'm not worried about the diagnosis of alzheimer's so much. drying out in the pub, he's well aware that dementia is changing him,

sometimes affecting his personality. but as well as the mountains, he has wendy for support. it's much harder if you're at home because your mood tends to drop quite dramatically, to the point where if he can't motivate himself to do the exercises, he will really maybe just go to bed or fall asleep. it's a marked change, so the more he goes up the mountains and keeps walking, the better. he doesn't think or plan too far ahead, taking life just one day at a time, but he's determined to prove to himself and to others that such a devastating diagnosis does not mean his life is over — far from it. john maguire, bbc news, the lake district. let's get the latest weapon useful stop nick miller has the details. lovely day in scotland and northern ireland, plenty of sunshine and it feels fresh compared to recent days,

the highest temperature today in south—east england, kent, not far from chatham, 26 celsius at gravesend, the uk's highest temperature of the year so far. not everywhere has sunshine, clearly this area of cloud and rain honey around for much of the day and it will through the night as well, in fa ct will through the night as well, in fact it expands a little bit as the night goes on across southern parts of england and were so some outbreaks of rain from time to time but mild and muggy once again underneath the cloud cover. it is fresher for scotland and northern ireland, dry overnight, she showers in the north west of scotland, chilly in rural spots and some places close to freezing by the morning, sheltered scottish glens, watch out, the northern lights the further north you are in scotland could make an appearance. some showers in northern ireland and scotla nd showers in northern ireland and scotland and in england and wales lots of wet weather, just the fringes of england and wales being dry and brighter in the afternoon. at 4pm we pick out the showers in scotland, mainly in the north—west, southern and eastern areas staying mainly dry and for some not quite as

warm as today but still pleasant in sunshine. sunshine and scattered showers developing into northern ireland. the westernmost fringes of wales, the far south—west, dry for the afternoon, the sun may make an appearance before the day is done. a large part of england and wales will have a very wet day, very warm and humid againfor have a very wet day, very warm and humid again for parts of east anglia and the south—east of england staying dry until late on but once the rain moves in it could be heavy and thundery for a time before clearing. there will be parts of southern, central and eastern england bat by the time this is all said and done could end up with 25 and a0 millimetres of rain. after it has been so dry it could be useful for many but not useful for travelling through. that is gone first day, we are left with a good deal of sunshine, the cloud building, some showers breaking out, if you catch one it could be heavy and thundery but by no means will everybody and it will feel cool and fresh across the board but still pleasa nt fresh across the board but still pleasant when the sun makes an appearance, but noticeably cooler in

american people. that is what he did. 0ur fight is against isis, as general mcmaster said — and i know he feels that we had a great meeting. but senior republicans join democrats in criticising
