facebook attempts to stop the spread of misinformation in the european elections. before the papers — sport and for a full round up, from the bbc sport centre. the race for a top four finish has become a lot clearer with chelsea securing champions league football but manchester united have blown it after being held to a draw at bottom clu b after being held to a draw at bottom club huddersfield. a bad day for arsenal, too with a draw against brighton, the only realistic route into the champions league is by winning the europa league. no top four finish winning the europa league. no top fourfinish and winning the europa league. no top four finish and on this showing, no complaints. manchester united's hopes of qualification ended with a whimper at huddersfield. scott mctominay blasting them ahead albeit with some help from the keeper. after the break, the ultimate sucker

punch, a goal kick all the way through to isaac in who booted huddersfield level before booting the corner flag into smithereens. it summed up united's day and in the words of manager, ole gunnar solskjaer, not good enough. we haven't deserved to be in the top four, we've chased the pack, we have been given chances. the league is so tight. it's a good lead with loads of good teams and when we got opportunities, we weren't able to grab them. arsenal's top four hopes are also all but over, they were soon ahead against brighton with nacho monreal winning a penalty which aubameyang coolly converted but the gunners couldn't capitalise on their early lead and after the break, they conceded a penalty of their own. granite shack at the culprit and brighton were level through glen murray. arsenal had their chances to win but couldn't ta ke their chances to win but couldn't take them. they will surely have to win this season's europa league to

qualify for the champions league on a day of footballing frustration. and a day of footballing frustration. andy swiss, bbc news. we know it will be difficult. that has happened. after, our focus is the europa league. we can take some opportunity in the europa league to do something important. chelsea were the one side that didn't fluff their lines, beating watford 3—0.. they guaranteed champions league football next season. they are third at the moment and like arsenal, they are in the semifinals of the europa league but winning that isn't so important for them. to go there to try to win. —— we have to go there. probably, as i said, at the beginning of the season, we have to fight until the

la st season, we have to fight until the last minute of the last match. leicester on the final day for chelsea, who manchester city face tonight. the title is still in their hands, win at the etihad and city will move one point clear of liverpool with just a trip to brighton on the final day. leicester still have a bit to play for, the chance of europa league football next season by getting up to seventh. they won't roll over. next season by getting up to seventh. they won't roll overlj cannot imagine leicester players come here for their holidays. may be there's a chance to finish seventh, depends on the results. in the end, it's not going to happen, they will try to make a good game, sure. the championship season over with norwich as champions after they beat aston villa. the big issue to be resolved yesterday was the final play—off spot, which has gone to derby county which managed to hold on to six. they beat west brom and

if they didn't middlesbrough would have taken their spot but they won 3-1 with have taken their spot but they won 3—1 with frank lampard's side facing leeds in the semifinal. west brom play villa. steven gerrard is frustrated, he says he is running out of ideas when it comes to improving his rangers' players‘ discipline improving his rangers‘ players‘ discipline after their 12th red card of the season. they won the match 1-0, of the season. they won the match i—o,jermain of the season. they won the match i—o, jermain defoe with the only goal of the game before half—time. rangers were already sure of finishing as runners—up to celtic but their keeper, allan mcgregor, was sent off for that. stupid. stupid. sent off for a petulant kick with a couple of minutes remaining, trying to convince the referee it was just a natural follow—through. he will miss next week‘s old firm match against champions celtic and gerrard said he might have to start finding his players who get red cards. england beat pakistan in a one—off t20 in cardiff yesterday and with the world cup starting at the end of the month, david willey will

be very relieved he avoided any serious injury. the ground gave way underneath him as he ran into bowl, a sunken box that holds all the wires. the lid came off. he could have turned his ankle very badly but he was uninjured. eoin morgan‘s unbeaten 57 led them to a seven wicket win. they face pakistan again ina wicket win. they face pakistan again in a one—day series, their last preparation for the world cup, which is on home soil. judd trump‘s in com plete is on home soil. judd trump‘s in complete control of the world snooker championship final in sheffield resuming this afternoon. 12-5 sheffield resuming this afternoon. 12—5 up against the former champion john higgins. 5—4 down but won eight frames ina john higgins. 5—4 down but won eight frames in a row. a bit of showboating. first to 18 and play gets back under way at the crucible add 2pm live on bbc two and across the bbc. bath are on the verge of

the bbc. bath are on the verge of the european champions cup place after a bonus point win over wasps. three late tries including two from zach mercer helped them to a 29—17 victory. they are a point of seventh place sale with one more round to go. less than 2a hours after losing the morocco open final, jo konta won her first—round match at the madrid open. the british number one pete alison riske, finishing off the american an ace get a straight set win. she will face the reigning french open champion and two time winner in madrid, simona halep, the first seed. the tour do yorkshire finished on the streets of leeds yesterday with a british winner, the final stage from halifax to city centre might have been won by someone centre might have been won by someone else but chris lola is held on to the need for the biggest win of his career. that also gives the new team ineos outfit, formerly team sky, a victory in their first outing

french who has won badminton. here isjoanna french who has won badminton. here is joanna with french who has won badminton. here isjoanna with the papers. hello and welcome to our morning paper review. with me are james rampton from the independent and the deputy political editor of the spectator, katy balls. let‘s take a look at the front pages. the telegraph leads with the release of radical preacher anjem choudary. the financial times focuses on the row between spotify and apple over its app store service. the i features fresh criticism from labour about cross—party brexit talks. the guardian claimsjeremy corbyn won‘t be able to get enough labour mps to back a deal without a second referendum. and the daily mail says three quarters of maternity units have no consultants on duty at night.

lots of brexit in the papers, obviously. let‘s start with the guardian, labourmps obviously. let‘s start with the guardian, labour mps won‘t back brexit deal without second referendum. we have a day of calm, because it‘s a bank holiday but it hasn‘t stopped us from talking about brexit. labour tory talks are supposed to pick up tomorrow where they will try to hammer a brexit deal. all of the new music over the weekend is that tories want to strike a deal with labour, theresa may, over some kind of customs arrangement —— mood music. suggestions from labour politicians including jeremy corbyn that the matter of brexit needs to be decided, particularly after disappointing local election results on friday means that there is concern amongst some labour mps that jeremy corbyn is about to agree to something involving brexit and a customs union. the guardian is

reporting that there is a backlash growing amongst labour mps who do not think leadership should deliver brexit in this sense. there is a warning from senior labour figures that even word jeremy corbyn to agree to something with theresa may, agree to something with theresa may, a form of brexit deal closer to labour‘s current position, which would limit free trade, it wouldn‘t even would limit free trade, it wouldn‘t eve n pass would limit free trade, it wouldn‘t even pass the commons in terms of numbers because they are saying there are so many labour mps who wa nt there are so many labour mps who want a second referendum that if that isn‘t involved in the deal, it‘s not going to pass. it would have to be a deal along with a public vote. some people have since suggested it might pass. caroline flint, labourmp, suggested it might pass. caroline flint, labour mp, saying the number of labour mps who want a second referendum is lower than this is suggesting. but it hits on that theme, which is, whateverjeremy corbyn does this week will upset one pa rt corbyn does this week will upset one part of his party. that can apply to both of them, can‘t it? part of his party. that can apply to both of them, can't it? generally.

what do you think? i very much enjoyed a couple of weeks not talking about brexit butjust enjoyed a couple of weeks not talking about brexit but just when you thought it was safe to go back to the papers, here it is again. you are absolutely right. both sides seem are absolutely right. both sides seem to be saying they can block any deal. it's a plague on all your houses, again, because the last thing donald tusk said, when he gave the government an extension to the end of october, please don't waste the time. it seems like we got absolutely nowhere further forward. perhaps 150 labour mps are saying that if there is not a second referendum... and 100 tories, according to the times, are saying, don't cave in to labour or we will block it. there is a complete impasse and it may be resolved by indicative votes, but i think... we‘ve been there before! indicative votes, but i think... we've been there before! exactly. but as we saw with the search for the lib dems last week, voters are saying, please sort it out. they are saying, please sort it out. they are saying a plague on both your houses

to labour and tory because of this complete gridlock. people are incredibly frustrated. everybody is saying these results prove this. for example, the position i hold. and i believe these results to prove it. what is the telegraph saying about the tory position on the referendum? the telegraph is suggesting that theresa may is, at least, in talks, about the idea of a second referendum and what terms it would need on the tory side. this is clearly something that has come up in conversations with labour. we know half of labour want a second referendum. people like keir starmer, who is in these talks is sympathetic to a need for a public vote, he is in the talks. look at what is being said. the idea that the prime minister talking about free options, three choices. if you we re free options, three choices. if you were to have a second referendum, do you want the final deal, presumably, her deal, not the one she‘s moving on with labour, do you want no deal?

leaving on wto, world trade organisation, terms, or do you want to remain? this would be incredibly unpopular in her own party and if you look at what is discussed in cabinet, julian smith, the chief whip, said there were two ways to potentially get enough votes to pass a deal in the commons with the help of labour. one is a customs union, harder to do free trade deals with countries outside the eu and the other is a second referendum. he said the second referendum wasn‘t viable for the tory party. i don‘t think it is something theresa may would want to go to in any way but if you get into these indicative votes again, which we have had before, if labour and the tories can‘t agree on a deal this week, we might have a situation where mps once again vote on options. this might be the defiant option of a second referendum. speaking to conservative mps, they still think there aren‘t the numbers in the commons for a second referendum in this way. what was interesting as one of the papers quoted rory

stewart, the new international development secretary who said we might have to take some pain, indicating perhaps that the tory party will have to accept it will need to split in order to get a deal. because there is no way this incredibly divided party, such a schism within the tory party, will ever come to a settled view on this. the brexiteers, 20 or 30 constantly voting against the deal, will not shift and near nor are the remains. both parties are fatally split. —— and norare both parties are fatally split. —— and nor are the both parties are fatally split. —— and norare the remainers. both parties are fatally split. —— and nor are the remainers. they might split into different splinter groups. the express says the new brexit deal is 99% there, very optimistic. that last 1% is tricky. you said earlier, the plane has 99% landed, it's that final 1% that is extremely crucial. that 1% is where all the fighting is being done. a

massive debate about the second referendum on whether a customs union would be permit or whether they would be a customs union or the customs union. —— there would be. optimistic prognosis, quoting rory stewart again. there is a sort of pollyannaish expression there. everyone wanted to get over the line so we can everyone wanted to get over the line so we can talk about line of duty instead! we will definitely talk about that. of course. the times saying don‘t cave into labour again. this is touching on one of the many reasons the 1% to getting that actual deal between the two parties is still very far away. so many things can go wrong this week. john mcdonnell on sunday said that he felt theresa may had breached the confidentiality of the conversations by having these things in the news over the weekend about the fact that a deal is close. talk of the customs

union only being temporary. we also have a tory backlash grown with the idea that theresa may would do a deal withjeremy corbyn. because lots of brexiteers don‘t like the idea of a customs union. also because other tory mps perhaps don‘t feel that strongly on brexit and think that if theresa may were to do a deal withjeremy corbyn, the message at the next general election is going to be quite muddied. you‘re going to be saying this man isn‘t safe to be in number ten, we don‘t think he is a figure who should be in control of the country but we think it is acceptable to make one of the most important decisions in the country with his help. that is what makes it very difficult to see whether this is actually going to land. there is more to say it won‘t work than it will work. what is the expected timetable in terms of knowing whether it will work or not? the talks resume tomorrow. european elections on the 23rd of may. at what stage will it be clear whether the talks are likely to deliver something? the meeting tomorrow is seen as very

something? the meeting tomorrow is seen as very important, a crunch meeting. we‘ve heard lots of crunch before on brexit. the hope within the government is that the local elections were bad for both parties, worse for the tories but disappointing for labour. they had a net loss when they were trying to ta ke net loss when they were trying to take the tories from power. they wa nt to take the tories from power. they want to get to the point that if meps are elected for parties like the brexit party, they never have to ta ke the brexit party, they never have to take their seats. the hope is that they can get something before then but if you miss that deadline, the pressure feels taken off again and it is hard to see when you will get the agreement. my conspiracy theory is that on the day after the european elections it will suddenly be announced at meghan and harry have had a royal baby! a good day to bury bad news and no one will care whether meps are going to europe. who knows? dark things happen. anyone who watches line of duty will know that, conspiracy theories flying around all over the place. it isa flying around all over the place. it is a sort of absurd situations that

we will have european elections at the same time as we are trying to leave the eu. anything that distracts the voters from the pure absurdity of that is not to be discounted. we will see. i like that we are holding back the sun front page but they are definitely bringing in line of duty with the royal baby. the times have a story about crossrail. 500 drivers on the payroll for crossrail, tell us what thatis payroll for crossrail, tell us what that is about. it is a remarkable story. generally, public services are suffering, we are suffering, schools, hospitals, they are spending £25 million per year on driver salaries for almost 500 drivers who are not being fully employed in their mainjob, which is driving trains. the crossrail project has been delayed again and again. the costs have soared by 2.8 billion to 17.6 billion and may go even higher. at the same time, other

networks are saying we are having to cancel services because we have a shortage of drivers. if they are paying these 500 drivers, why not shift them to another service to plug the terrible gaps that people on all sorts of other networks are suffering? it amazes lots of questions about efficiency and whether the money is being well spent. another point, last month, crossrail admitted it has 200 highly trained maintenance technicians employed to keep the line operating but currently they are spending most of their time practising. that doesn‘t seem like a good use of anyone‘s time, particularly when people around the country are suffering from bad train services. the guardian, bus fares golf, the scandal of unfair golf in bus fares in england. another good transport story. —— gulf. they would a good job using freedom of information. they discover that outside london, the only place where bus services are still regulated, you can pay as

much as £6 for a journey, a single ticket. in london, the maximum going right from one side of the city to the other is £150. given that most of the wealth, a lot of the wealth is concentrated in london, that seems bizarre. it must be a rare example of something where the same thing is much more expensive outside of london! it is very weird. exactly. in places like hampshire, it is costing £6 to get across the country. and there are no guarantees that any deregulatory bus service will continue, they only have to give 42 days notice to stop the service. people in remote communities are very much under threat. we will move on to the male, risks of giving birth at night —— the daily mail. no consultants on—site out of office hours in a certain number. this will worry lots of people this morning. it is pointing out that suggestions have shown that if you give birth at a weekend, you have a higher risk of

having complications, which aren‘t adequately dealt with. they are pointing to the fact, linking this, to the fact that lots of maternity wards don‘t have a consultant on in and out of office hours and research has found that we can babies are more likely to die or suffer a serious injury. worth pointing out the nhs have responded to this and said there is not a link to whether the consultant is working on call, comes in or directly working in the office. they are urging some caution but there are the findings. i think a lot of expectant mothers and their families are going to want reassu ra nces families are going to want reassurances from the hospital where they are planning to give birth because you can‘t really control... some certain ways but generally, you can‘t say i‘m going to go between 9am and 5pm on monday. when the consultant will be there! exactly. that is a lot of concern. we have more money coming to the nhs with this funding settlement coming from the tories. lots of pressure on places where they wanted to go and

people want this to get going but this is where one area people will push for. the most popular time to give birth is 4am. when you are least likely to have a consultant. gosh. a baby will come when it‘s ready. unless it is a cesarean. the one we are all guessing about is meghan and harry. before we talk about line of duty, take a look at the sun front page because this has got to get the price for the headline of the day, seven thin line of duty. the paper speculating that they were some of those 14 million line of duty fans last night. some conspiracy theories were so extreme that h might have been harry! i love the way they have yoked the two big stories of the day. classic. speculation they may have been one of the 14 million people. more people didn't watch it in the uk than dead. a bit spurious. to

picture her pregnant, next to ted hastings, the star of line of duty isa hastings, the star of line of duty is a brilliant way of bringing together those stories, classic tabloid headline. in terms of online traffic for those two different buzzwords, they should be doing very well. yes. i was not in the 14 million but you both work? no spoilers! no. it went out last night. in case anyone was worried. i we nt night. in case anyone was worried. i went to a line of duty party, i'm so obsessed and i was listening to the podcast, obsessed with line of duty. what is to be commended isjed mercurio, the writer's ability to bring everyone together, 14 million is an incredible number. everyone is talking about the fragmentation of the audience, the upsurge of streaming services like amazon and netflix. people talking about the death of linear terrestrial tv but then you get 14 million for something that goes out at the same time everybody is watching it, and talking about it at the water cooler, a triumph for bbc and old

fashion tv. it is brilliant. i only discovered idiot this year and i have watched all the previous series at the same time of watching series five. it messes with your head! i can almost work out with the bent copper is from who isn‘t in series five. it is not recommended to watch it in that order! she has a super brain. i like a challenge. i would say it is very social and yesterday i was messaging various family members and friends to work out... if people will try to wait for a time to see it together or promise not to mention it to each other. it is reminding us that we use online streaming sites, there is still a community element to it. you talked about spoilers, i love this story in the i, martin compton said he would tweet out a line that said, just had a sausage roll and people would tweet him, saying please no spoilers! it is out of time. thank you. should i watch it? definitely but start at series one! lovely to see you both.

that‘s it for the papers. don‘t forget, you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it‘s all there for you — seven days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you. good morning. it was a cool weekend and it will continue. could be one of the coolest in the records. we have this cloud across southern scotland, northern england producing some showery outbreaks of rain. a few showers across scotland, where there will be some sunshine. a bit of sunshine towards southern parts, but with that northerly wind, it‘s still going to feel pretty chilly out there.

we‘ve got that northerly wind and thatis we‘ve got that northerly wind and that is still bringing us that chilly weather. temperatures about a 7-9dc in chilly weather. temperatures about a 7—9dc in north—eastern areas potentially up to 13 degrees across the south. tonight, this zone of cloudier and damp weather across northern parts of england towards east anglia. further showers across scotla nd east anglia. further showers across scotland which could be wintry. in the north—east, a chilly night with temperatures close to if not below freezing, elsewhere there is temperatures staying up at 5—8 celsius. tuesday, sunny spells across southern parts with a bit of sunshine across the far north but otherwise we have this zone of cloudier weather, showers during the morning but by the afternoon, quite a few showers across wales, the midlands, east anglia and some of those could be on the heavy side with maximum temperatures 8—10 in the north but further south, 14 or 15 with less colder air coming in. wednesday, this area of low pressure will spread these weather fronts

north across the uk. and it will also bring milder airfrom the south—west. temperatures won‘t be quite as low but with a rather strong easterly wind for some. if you are stuck beneath the cloud and rain on wednesday, it could feel unpleasant. that heavier rain will spread north, eventually spreading into scotland and northern ireland. in the south, sunny spells developing but also the risk of heavy and perhaps even thundery showers during wednesday afternoon. i mentioned quite a brisk easterly wind and across northern parts of england, into scotland, that will make it feel really quite chilly. temperatures 7—10 celsius, further south, 13 or 14 where there will be some sunshine. throughout this week, still some pretty cool days and chilly nights. some rain at times and strong winds particularly during wednesday but also some sunshine. not a complete right off as we go through this week. that‘s all from me. goodbye.
