10:45 pm
have voted twice in the election. the daily express leads with a story on a new diet that says it can beat alzheimer's disease. the royal couple's trip to poland makes the sun's front page. the paper leads with a story claiming the duchess of cambridge wants a third child. so let's begin. hsz, jason, if so controversial, very expensive and we heard today, very expensive and we heard today, very sad for people who were living in new homes that will be demolished. yes, the route has been changed again. is it worth money and is it the route we need? the idea when it was first unveiled, it would be good for connectivity between the north and south, a lot of people in the north said what we really want is an east—west connection, that is where the big gaps are in transport and then you have this extraordinary
10:46 pm
cost, some people say 100 million, chris grayling the transport secretary says it will not be that must but we have experience of these things going over budget and now this disruption where the route which was going to go through doncaster will now go through max boro, you understand why people will be distraught. it would be hard to build any major infrastructure projects without destroying some homes. we know chris grayling is infrastructure are heavy and likes these big projects and when it comes to the north and h52, a lot of our leaders are sick of all roads leading to london, hsz is going from london but if there is more connectivity between northern cities, it can redress the balance of power, but a lot of villages in britain don't even have high—speed
10:47 pm
broadband, and you wonder about this new world where we are on our phones late at night, it might be better for some people in this age of working from home if their internet links were improved rather than the rail links. the metro, a story about delays and something to cheer up rail passengers? yes and no. we will get more information about why the train is late. does that help hold the company to account? we have technology now which can tell you what time your train will arrive and how late it will be that the compensation will not change, companies still only have to pay compensation if your train is more than 30 minutes late, so people will say, southern railway trains are frequently late, if you can measure
10:48 pm
how bad it will be why can't companies not pay more easily? why can they not pay like on london underground her efforts more than 15 minutes late you can go online and get it repaid with no questions? sometimes you can't be enough privately operated trains and not find out for half an hour. private companies are rightly getting bad press because they are not fit for purpose for commuters are paying more money for the service to be either stood in the crowded carriage or on the platform waiting for no train to arrive. we will find something. brexit talks have begun again, second round of talks, david davis and his team in brussels and the ft have that picture where there
10:49 pm
doesn't seem to be a lot of paperwork on the side of the british but david davis was there to kick things off and then led it to his tea m things off and then led it to his team of officials. he hadn't got his paperwork bout of his bullet—proof bag but michel barnier looking serious because they have massive dossiers. i don't know if they had their paperwork out or he was winning it. you could look at this picture and sake if you are a brexiteers this proved so much bureaucracy you get and the other way is to say the optics are terrible, if the central charge for david davis is that you haven't done the detail and against experienced negotiators, quite a lay yourself to be pictured in a situation like this and reinforcing what is seen as your weakness? there are now 98 british
10:50 pm
officials in brussels negotiating this. it is weird that they are going there and coming back because they are having this technical period that he probably doesn't like hanging around in brussels unnecessarily. i would hanging around in brussels unnecessarily. iwould have hanging around in brussels unnecessarily. i would have thought brussels is anathema to most brexiteers. the split within the cabinet, brexit is a part of that but we have had rumblings for days, according to the times, may one to sack donkey ministers. where has this come from? theresa may is going to tell cabinet tomorrow to stop, i wonder if she will be going to magaluf and say they have had too many beers, you have this tory party
10:51 pm
with this vortex of borrowing over brexit, a prime minister who doesn't have the clout to assert her control and then this jostling for positions as being the next in line to take over and they are in this death spiral and i cannot see an easy way out, they will reflect on how better to get rid of her. there is rivalry for the leadership but also important political questions, brexit and austerity, dividing the cabinet? and i thinkjason's description could apply to the labour party, it is all tricky and i think theresa may is grateful for the timing that this is her last cabinet meeting and she will not be subject to more links, although the
10:52 pm
timetable of brexit is the only thing that carries us through the summer, jason and i wondering what the recess will bring after this frantic period but i imagine briefings will continue and they will not be able to resist. the daily telegraph have a story about overseas aid money which they say is being wasted. we must use the word wasted very carefully. it is a detailed report and is full of praise for the department for international development, it says it has done better but there was a habit of it coming to the end of a financial year and then rushing through spending to meet its target. the government has bred the development budget among other departments and it is the other departments and it is the other departments who have a smaller share of the budget and are now spending their money on the deadline. the
10:53 pm
argument is not that money is being wasted, international aid is a good thing, but the fact that treasury imposes deadline so you have to rush money through and that is unnecessary. it's a good thing if we know where it's going, this strikes me as know where it's going, this strikes measa know where it's going, this strikes me as a macro virgin of when all the roads in your area are closed because the council has decided to spend its last pot of cash filling holes that don't exist. even if this is spread across departments, people are saying we have to spend and if you rush things through you make mistakes and money goes to the wrong people. the daily mail have stories about students who voted forjeremy corbyn, two votes forjeremy corbyn. peter brown and andrew other
10:54 pm
backbench mps rates concerns with andrea leadsom that students could register in their university town and then go home, that timing a month later than normal, jean meant students had gone home. jason has experience of this because your daughter, you were telling me she was easily able to register twice. she only registered —— only voted once, it was easy to register twice. a p pa re ntly once, it was easy to register twice. apparently there was a vote —— there was an app that told you where your vote would be more useful. the electoral commission site there is no evidence of widespread abuse, they have received complaints. you have one central register to vote site but 381 different election
10:55 pm
counter site but 381 different election cou nter faces site but 381 different election counter faces so there needs to be joining up which could prevent this. middle—class dementia cases halt the growth of longer life. what is surprising about this, we are living longer and are now saying that is being reversed, possibly because of dementia. everyone wants a long and happy life but at some point there has to be a limit of how long you can live. read don't all want to be 120. one day we might be. god for bed. all the papers have pictures of young prince george, a bit of relu cta nt young prince george, a bit of reluctant prince, reluctant in warsaw, he didn't want to get off the plane. we're expecting this child at the age of three to stop
10:56 pm
performing, it's a tricky one. when you have children on a flight, that is one thing, i knowjason and others have concerns. if i was dressed like that i would be relu cta nt to dressed like that i would be reluctant to appear in public. there is nothing with children were very wrong socks and i interviewed children's designer, who says it here there in an official engagement, be it a christening or trooping the colour, they cannot turn up in a grubby t—shirt and denims. but is it a bit young? it comes as a whole package, the same reason you take dresses for meetings and the prime minister doesn't turn up and the prime minister doesn't turn up cameras. and the prime minister doesn't turn up cameras. are they too young to be taken on a royal trip like this macro iodate to young to be left at
10:57 pm
home while their parents go around the world? this is a trade visit and they are props. that is a bit of a republicanism. i think the duchess doesn't want to leave them for a long time, they want to be hands—on parents. thank you both, camelot and jason. that is it from the papers. there was no shortage of sunshine today and that did wonders for the temperatures, look at this picture in north—east scotland. a beautiful scene in lossiemouth and after a sunny state it will stay dry tonight with some clear spells, maybe some mist and fog, more cloud creeping across england and wales, turning
10:58 pm
quite monkeyed down towards the south and that monkey are will move more tomorrow, still some dry weather, sunshine hazy across england and wales but late in the day some thunderstorms approach from the south. temperatures on tuesday quite cool, further west looking at 28 or 29 degrees and with that heat and humidity building, choose tonight into whether state could bring some thunderstorms but they will clear away to leave a fresher feel for the end of the week. this is bbc news. the headlines at 11:00: a boost for schools — the education secretary announces an extra 1.3 billion pounds, but labour says it's not enough. the route of the new hs2 rail line north of birmingham has been announced — some new homes near sheffield will have to be demolished. a terminally ill man takes his case to the high court — trying to overturn the ban
10:59 pm
on assisted dying. and on newsnight, tony blair tells us and on newsnight, tony blair tells us that he has changed his mind. but jeremy corbyn can become prime minister. we the last car he and so many others got it wrong, predicting the election last month. —— we will ask how he and
