across the british isles today than was the case on saturday. high pressure trying to settle things down across the greater part of england and wales, but drifting away towards the north—west, we are wordy seen a towards the north—west, we are wordy seenafair towards the north—west, we are wordy seen a fair model cloud and in the afternoon i think there is a chance of that pushing up the western side of that pushing up the western side of scotland. the cloud may produce the odd spot of rain, would amount to much, to the south temperatures will be comfortable into the teens we re will be comfortable into the teens were many. between them under their cambridge, i think some could see 21 oi’ cambridge, i think some could see 21 or even 22 degrees. no frost tonight, we are reporting mild air from the continent, which will push this weather front toward the western side of the british isles. it will be a bit of a player for northern ireland, and then some moderate bursts of rain across the top of scotland. but elsewhere, a very warm day. you're watching bbc news, the headlines.

now. we come to bedford, a tory held seat, marginal. the people we are speaking to have been selected by pollsters its source and murray. no small group can tell us how this place will vote, let alone the country on a roll. this can flesh out what you hear in opinion polls, and on the vox pops. let's go to the corn exchange, and chat over a bit of food, for the latest of nick's election takeaways. today's takeaway, nice food. let's ask you, maria, when you think of the issues that are important, ian bedford, what are important? welcome a very multicultural society. a place i

have lived for almost 18 years. with a very diverse background, children from a diverse background. a very pleasa nt from a diverse background. a very pleasant place to live, and educate children, who are now going back into london, creating lives and careers. recent times, made people question how they feel about the general population, in the way i have never done before. the mix? the la st have never done before. the mix? the last year has made me feel differently about bedford and britain. i think i know what you are hinting at. what about bedford, what are your thoughts? at the moment, the hospital situation. important to me, my husband has a heart condition. having those services

available. thinking about having a family in the future. the potential of a&e shouting. front line services not being there. quite scary to think we might have to go further afield for things we have been able to access for such a long time. for me, the nhs, local hospitals was news about a degrading of a&e services. what future for local hospitals? will i be able to get all the resources i have in the future growth or will they be far—away. that is a big worrying point from my perspective in bedford. poverty. i would say poverty has increased a lot in bedford. a lot of homelessness. people accessing the

food bank. iasked homelessness. people accessing the food bank. i asked the food bank yesterday how much food did they give out per month? they give out six tonnes. bedford is a small town. cuts in services. from the council, all statutory services. they. especially for vulnerable families. people experiencing domestic violence, low income, everything i have a concern. i cannot think outside bedford. i am always dealing with people in bedford facing these problems. on a day—to—day basis. affecting their way of living. it is getting worse each day. anyone else had an experience in the nhs?” getting worse each day. anyone else had an experience in the nhs? i was abroad. a couple who work in the local hospital, the husband is a doctor. a greek doctor, has been every year. my son fractured his

arm. they took him into a&e, the greek doctor, a friend, shocked that this lady was bleeding next to my son, only 17, 18, with what he thought was a fracture. they sat there for several hours. a lady, could have been homeless, covered in blood. he said, as bad as things are in greece, in such a thing could not happen for somebody with such obvious need for care could be allowed to sit there in the midst of everyone. is that the big issue nationally? are there other things other than the nhs? for me, brings it is one of the issues. —— for me, brexit is one of the issues. we should have a good deal in place. it affects our economy. that means we

cannot fund the nhs. the most important issue for me at this point in time, getting a good brexit deal. getting the right deal. very important for me, myjob depends on it. in ourcompany important for me, myjob depends on it. in our company cannot make it work, you have to think about things you have to do to make it work. why does your company depend on it? you have to do to make it work. why does your company depend on mm can put obstacles in the way. our production factory is in italy. we essentially buy from our production site, into the uk. in terms of you, if there are tariffs? it will make it harder for us to make a profit. more strain on us as a company. anyone else finding brexit is an issue? the biggest issue of this

election. my vote will be going to the strongest campaign to get us the big steel. you want the strongest campaigner to get out? to be involved in getting the best deal. do you mind me asking how you voted? i voted remain. are you looking for someone i voted remain. are you looking for someone who still wants us to remain? someone who is a good negotiator can a good listener? someone to get the best possible outcome, what is on the table. get us outcome, what is on the table. get us the best deal. although i voted remain, we are in a situation where we are. that is what we have to look at now this for me, it is done. brexit is happening. we are moving ahead. how did you vote? remain. remain. remain. remain. iwill let

you into a secret, you will voted remain, that is why we asked you here. we were interested in your thinking. depressed? here. we were interested in your thinking. depressed ?|i here. we were interested in your thinking. depressed? ifeel here. we were interested in your thinking. depressed? i feel rather sad. it is the next generation. my daughter graduated on the day before they went to vote. she had a very bad feeling it would go in that direction. absolutely devastated, all three of them. i was certainly shocked. at the end of the day, not for us is here now, our children's future. what happens when they want to travel around europe, work outside the uk? how will it affect them? how did you feel in the referendum? in my work, because i am 26, i work with a lot of, not older,

but older people. what do you do? i work in the state agent, i'm a secretary. being young, compare to them. i felt secretary. being young, compare to them. ifelt their secretary. being young, compare to them. i felt their decision was made for me. you think they made the decision for you? they made the decision for you? they made the decision for you? they made the decision for me. what will happen, will impact me more, myjob, my future. frustrating, all the bravado. we have left it is going to be better. did before, all this stuff. well, it is not going to affect you. i voted remain, not for the economy at all. i voted because i had the economy at all. i voted because ihada the economy at all. i voted because i had a fear of the increase of hate crime. that was my only reason why. not for the economic reasons. i was

scared, if we voted out, it gives a platform, because of the way the campaign is going. it would give a platform for people to incite hatred and xenophobia. now it has happened? we are dealing with a lot of hate crime. really? there is a small increase. you are saying you were frightened, and you were right to be frightened? i think that fear will not go for a long time. we can see it happening all around us. lots of people will say, come off it? we have not changed because we voted the you don't like? we have to deal with it. that is why the government has to work towards protecting and safeguarding these people, the community being attacked. safeguarding these people, the community being attackedli safeguarding these people, the community being attacked. i spoke to people in this town, he won't say i'm not politically minded within 2a and was they said they did not know

why they voted. fairly nice people, within a day were saying, happen to p0p within a day were saying, happen to pop in my house, they did not know, but they voted league. when you ask them questions, they have not thought of many of the aspects of what that meant. i feel that the campaign was led from the way it was led, it appealed to certain basic instincts in sum, and others they we re instincts in sum, and others they were left naively not knowing what was going on. that now, you don't agree with people, but you have to get on with it. make the case? that is like fire going on in your house, and just say let it go. you still think the fire can be put? there is a lot of hubris, and ego. the way

the government and the people who we re the government and the people who were leading the government of the time, literally fell away the way was voted in. disappeared. you don't think so. i would like to get on. the election is an opportunity to vote for somebody think will get the best deal after brexit. this is our opportunity to vote for either of them. who we think will give us the best possible deal in the future. that is beneficial to wall. you say the two of them. lots of other choices, can either to vote tory labour. lots of other parties, some of them say do it again.|j labour. lots of other parties, some of them say do it again. i don't think it is necessarilyjust get on with it. maybe there should be people potentially getting a bit more of a say, because we are voting ina more of a say, because we are voting in a general election. we're still

going to be voting on something we have not seen or have an opportunity to have a say on this it might be a great deal, but we are not necessarily going to know until it happens. is that your view? make a decision, get on with it. if the country was to vote for a party that decided to have another referendum, and the outcome is different. how many would we have? until we get to the point where the government say we liked his answer, we will get on with it since like scotland and england, how many referendums should they have? you are not convinced. when she was speaking, it is almost like, going up to someone, saying give us 250 grand for the house. what is it like? you will find out 01’ what is it like? you will find out orjust give us 250 grand. but what is it like, i might not like it. trust me, you will be fine that is

what the leaders have done? what it seems to me, particularly theresa may is saying, strong and stable leadership, i'm the best person to negotiate. i will negotiate it, but you will not get a say so every suits you. you willjust get it. might be commit turns out there was a lot of political machinations. we do get the best deal. seems a strange thing. so what would a good deal look like? they have said that. nobody knows. if you were to give it another go, who are you tempted by chris are you hearing any budding politics saying the sort of things you want to hear? know. i am very cynical about politicians. i have not heard anything. i feel we were set up. not hearing anybody saying

let's have another referendum? hearing how to reason may has gone into her discussions with europe, and generally, i think british perspective. i travel a lot, i go to your weekly sometimes, a couple of times a month. the europeans, they are feeling quite upset, quite angry. they have not like the posturing leading up to brexit. nobody on the opposition benches? the greens, liberal democrats, labour party. are they not saying the right thing? they were not get in. the chances are very unlikely.” agree. i cannot see any, anyone on

the tory front bench you could negotiate their way out of a paper bag. very sad. if you discount theresa may. jeremy corbyn, i don't think so. i agree with you, i am getting on. it is really quite depressing. you think there is no standout person. they say theresa may is really good, strong and sta ble may is really good, strong and stable leadership. she was in charge of the home office for six years, did not see a lot of that going on. i think bedford, last time it was a 1200 majority. it is not a safe seat. there has been a national movement to vote tactically. if you are going to vote tactically, you are going to vote tactically, you are not going to vote for the liberal democrats. unless there was some sort of turnover, they were not getting. if you vote tactically, you will vote for labour. they are going with brexit as well. difficult. maybe you vote for the lib dems, to

make a statement. your statement will be like a stone dropped in a pond. nobody will see it. it'll be gone, because we have not got pr, it is first past the post. if you do not agree with the government of the day, all you can do is vote for labour. what happens if he came in the room, and tim farron came in, the room, and tim farron came in, the new leader of the liberal democrats, the main thing i will give you is another say. don't despair, it is not all over, we can still do it, couple of years' time, it will look very different.” still do it, couple of years' time, it will look very different. i don't wa nt it will look very different. i don't want a second referendum. a waste of time. waste of energy.” want a second referendum. a waste of time. waste of energy. i would ee, time. waste of energy. i would agree, wasted time. we should just get on with it. you may cause actually more division. more division and uproar within society. it is done. those who voted remain

have accepted it. we want to get on with it now. anyone thinkjeremy corbyn would be a better person in negotiations. definitely not. he is a person that really cares about the economy. he has the interest of the workers at heart, that is what the economy is based on. that is what i think. i'm facing it and what i have seen think. i'm facing it and what i have seen happening in bedford over the years, the lack ofjobs, cuts in services. that plays a part in the economy. ijust services. that plays a part in the economy. i just want services. that plays a part in the economy. ijust want somebody to have another chance. see if they can make this go forward. you said you thoughtjeremy make this go forward. you said you thought jeremy corbyn would make this go forward. you said you thoughtjeremy corbyn would do well in the negotiations?” thoughtjeremy corbyn would do well in the negotiations? i think his style of talking to people on a personal level, i think he talks to people with engagement, rather than talking over people like he's going to tell people what is going to

happen. if you don't mind me saying so, i saw your eyebrows giving up? i'm really sorry, because he would probably be good if he got the chance. this is a chap who put a three line whip in people to pass the brexit bill, and never obeyed a government whip when labour was in power. he hasn't got any principles. jeremy corbyn, you are saying apathetic. the guy who would build a relationship. i will say something really bad. when i see him on the telly, i'd turn it over. why does he bother you? you find people who

irritated and life, hejust bother you? you find people who irritated and life, he just bugs bother you? you find people who irritated and life, hejust bugs me. is that because you are tory? not necessarily. i've watched other labour leaders. just him personally. give mea labour leaders. just him personally. give me a few qualities. let's do theresa may. what words do you associate? tough. strong. xenophobic. you feel that strongly? maria? a businesswoman. she's here to make the best of the bad situation. donald trump is a businessman. the issue is a lot of people are worried, not to bring up american politics, a lot of people

are worried it will go that way. people will vote for the lesser of to evils. i don't know why they voted for him, the lesser of evils. do you think they will do that here and now? what some people are worried about this she is like a second mrs thatcher. you don't mean that in a good way? i mean that is a very strong person. in a good way. you are thinking of voting labour?” have not decided yet, it will be based on the next week. you might vote for the second mrs thatcher or jeremy corbyn? your words? howl have voted, my dad has always voted labour, i have always voted labour. so much information, social media. the way we see politics, very different to how we saw it two

elections ago. people thinking more about who they voted. as opposed to something you inherited from your mother or father. in the past used to vote for the party, now it is not like that. i don't see it like that. words that describe theresa may, what about jeremy corbyn? poor. irritating. you were going to say that? i just irritating. you were going to say that? ijust don't irritating. you were going to say that? i just don't trust irritating. you were going to say that? ijust don't trust him. i fink he's fatally idealistic. you might vote for labour? as you say over there, the american election between there, the american election between the least worst candidate, and has such a shame in this country, we almost talking about the least worst candidate. lacks charisma. you might still vote labour? possibly. different. any other issue, that in

the end, we have had the referendum, this other thing is much reporting to me, and make me decide? for me, schools that our children go to. the pressure the teachers or under. it is incredible. anyone else? local services, everything. welfare. for the elderly. cuts in youth services. everything you need to live in a day—to—day basis. everything you need to live in a day-to-day basis. what about health? is the health service so important, more important than brexit? your health service will not function if you don't have a stronger economy. they come part and parcel. definitely. like schooling system,

the nhs is a lot more under strain. a lot of us living longer. the initial planning the nhs was not to let people live to 100, 120 one. thank you very much indeed. that is it from us in bedford. we will get the chance to finish off our thai takeaway. we will speak to people next week to the prime minister called the just about managing. how will they decide to vote? just overnight, we managed tojust get about the way with showers, across some parts yesterday. persistent rain across scotland. much improved across the greater pa rt much improved across the greater part of england and wales. even that is an improvement in argyll and bute. what you suffered yesterday,

across northern parts of scotland. all persistent rain moving away. this looks rather threatening. in fa ct this looks rather threatening. in fact this portion of cloud, a week weather front spreading thicker cloud and rain. across northern ireland, and parts of scotland. some areas towards the north—east, yet to see the rain. some areas in the east, when kitty see the rain right through the day. i have much of the rain, for those areas affected, but for the bigger picture, much improved day across england and wales. plenty of sunshine pouring through. temperatures responding to that. a bit of a breeze coming in from the south. thicker cloud, across parts of northern ireland. the bulk of the rain found across scotland. northern and eastern parts, you may get away with some.

slowly through the afternoon, rain drifting in through northern parts of scotland. there you see the top temperatures across the day, 11, 12 across the north. further south, 21. watch out for uv levels. not exclusively across the southern part of britain. no great issues with frost. importing mile there across the continent then we have seen of late. you will feel the difference on monday. another system working its way to scotland, western scotland, northern ireland across the first part of the day. the odd and moderate burst of rain. notice with the sunshine pouring through, elsewhere twentysomethings are many, 25, 26 maybe. in some parts of the south—east. tuesday, wednesday, thursday, into friday, that high—pressure very much the dominant feature, eventually, if not

immediately beginning to provide finance settled weather across the british isles. a lot of dry weather to come in the forthcoming week. increasingly from wednesday onwards, we will find temperatures beginning to respond, eventually for some of us to respond, eventually for some of us turning very warm indeed. see you later. this is bbc news, the headlines at 11:00am. donald trump continues his visit of saudi arabia, where he's preparing to address gulf leaders on the need to confront extremism. as the conservatives say plans to overhaul adult social care won't be re—looked at, labour reaffirms its pledge to cap what people pay for care. they will know that if they're in genuine need of the winter fuel payment, they will still get that. what does "genuine need" mean? well, that's what we are going to consult on, after the election. also in the next hour, celtic look to book a place in the history books. they'll be the first scottish team to go an entire season unbeaten for more than a century, if they avoid defeat against hearts this lunchtime.

500 people in a day, just gone.
