10:45 pm
to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the political economist ruth lea and nicola bartlett from the daily mirror. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. in the metro, generation x are said to be registering to vote in record numbers with 300,000 signing up — injust1i8 hours. in the eye, corbyn kicks off labour's election with a vow to tackle the wealthy elite, as well as tax dodgers, and polluters. leading the telegraph, trump urges nigel farage to do a deal with borisjohnson to beat jeremy corbyn in the general election. the financial times leads with impeachment hearings in the us, the house of representatives stepping up the pressure on trump by voting to hold a public inquiry. in the guardian, a landmark legal case against british american tobacco over wages and working conditions of their workers in malawi.
10:46 pm
generation x and the number of younger people particularly who are signing up to vote. so many people have had enough of politics, had enough of voting and yet this is quite heartening, isn't it? itjust shows how vibrant our democracy is under the circumstances and it made me smile because they're talking about generation x which is considered a bunch of teenagers but these are the people under 25 so they're quite mature and two thirds under 35 and on the 4% are actually over 65 but possibly around a0 years ago, soi over 65 but possibly around a0 years ago, so i would they register again. do you think that people still want to ta ke do you think that people still want to take part in it? you had three incredibly busy years as a
10:47 pm
journalist. yes, i think they really wanted apart from jeremy corbyn who looks quite happy. boris johnson has been asked a few times about that.|j been asked a few times about that.” think people are very engaged in the sense that they are fed up of politicians with their doing but certainly we have seen the amount of people paying parliament hasjust skyrocketed. i think people would not pay attention to brexit for a long time and then the supreme court hearing had something like 2 million people watch it live and there were tens of millions. i think recently people do realise how important theseissues people do realise how important these issues are. i think the whole debate on brexit has energised
10:48 pm
politics and even the people are sick of it, it has energised them. so many people, the appalling abuse that they have withstood.” so many people, the appalling abuse that they have withstood. i think there's very much plane level with there's very much plane level with the politicians as, particularly women seem to be bearing the brunt of that and actually before we came on air. they're talking about her standing down on top of others. talking about doing a deal, donald trump is done this interview with nigel farage. . but was the quote that donald trump had? very bad,
10:49 pm
bad. jeremy corbyn, a lot of his pitch today was that donald trump alleges that there is a trade deal they'll put the nhs at risk and being called bad by donald trump for him,| being called bad by donald trump for him, ithink, you'll being called bad by donald trump for him, i think, you'll be seeing that asa ringing him, i think, you'll be seeing that as a ringing endorsement. and encouraging nigel farage and boris johnson to work together. yes, even though boris is ahead in the polls, i think the latest one shows that the polls of the lead increased, but of course the concern is that with the brexit party, they may get 10% of the vote in the connection take quite a few seats away from them and denied boris is majority. so i think thatis denied boris is majority. so i think that is the argument behind this.
10:50 pm
and which party might do deals with each other in order to knock their main rivals out. the brexit party has been quiet until this nigel overshadowing the first day by coming out with an interview with donald trump on the day that we were supposed to leave the eu. tomorrow, we expect how many seats the plan, and the lib dems have ruled out an overall, but they are looking to do deals and seeds, rather in the tens than, it worked for them in the other areas. i remember when barack obama intervened in the referendum, that was the point of trying to make. it did not end well. it had
10:51 pm
the opposite effect. so i think jeremy corbyn, i think there are two points to his support. and we have someone points to his support. and we have someone like donald trump telling borisjohnson someone like donald trump telling boris johnson what to someone like donald trump telling borisjohnson what to do someone like donald trump telling boris johnson what to do it makes him look weak. revealed your advertising parties, this has this data—driven campaign of people being very much targeted by firms like this, scrape data away from social media so they can very clearly target people with political ads. people who did not know that they're giving their data away, giving silly quizzes over nonsense type things and the data was being used. i think it made people a lot more aware and
10:52 pm
there's quite a public backlash about that kind of advertising saying that they are no longer accepting political adverts. they said asa accepting political adverts. they said as a part of freedom of speech, but they have put in certain measures to make it clear, i think where those advertisements come from and it is a classic example of politics or legislation, not keeping up politics or legislation, not keeping up with changing circumstances.” didn't think it is terribly important compared to facebook. and end ofan important compared to facebook. and end of an era, the last orders. that isa end of an era, the last orders. that is a very good impersonation. john bercow bows out as speaker. ten yea rs. bercow bows out as speaker. ten years. ten years too long. you are
10:53 pm
not a years. ten years too long. you are notafan? years. ten years too long. you are not a fan? no. the backbenchers got more of a say. i don't think that is been terribly advantageous because they been just trying to thwart brexit and i don't actually appreciate the. rex it was all about promontory sovereignty. it is enshrined in the people and then trying to leave the european union and therefore parliament should actually stick to what the people voted for. pr representative. so -- they are representative. political sovereignty is of the people and we we re sovereignty is of the people and we were told. were going to keep doing this until the end of time. let's talk aboutjohn this until the end of time. let's talk about john bercow. this until the end of time. let's talk aboutjohn bercow. he has a very mixed figure because he is done all of these different things to change the way the comments operate and doing a lot more urgent
10:54 pm
questions and issues and the ministers could drilled a lot more than they would have. so that element has revitalised it and it is given ita element has revitalised it and it is given it a bit of a new lease. but oi'i given it a bit of a new lease. but on the flip side is he is accused of awful bullying and i think labour have behaved appallingly because they liked what he operates in the la ke they liked what he operates in the lake the weight that he curbs the executive power and the breath kept them in place because of that despite all of the problems and there's a lot of politics around the speaker. i think you're being very nuanced and that's quite admirable. he has been shockingly biased. nancy pelosi held this vote so you can show an appetite for these
10:55 pm
impeachment hearings to begin. he has been impeached in the sense of the charges that have been made by the charges that have been made by the house of representatives and this comes across as a depressurized of the ukrainian president into investigating corruption charges againstjoe biden and his son is one of the leaders in the election. but how much would actually they be concerned about this and when he gets the senate and it's the senate that does the trying of the charges, i suspect that the senate willjust say no thank you. because it is held by the republicans. it is an intensely political thing to impeach someone. intensely political thing to impeach someone. they're trying to show that itjust wasn't a someone. they're trying to show that it just wasn't a democratic obsession. but it is split down party lines and not for the first time the impeachment has had that
10:56 pm
difficulty. and there is a presidential election coming. that's it for the papers this hour. we will be back at 11:30pm for another look at the papers, and 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. ruth and nicola see you a bit later on. hello. a very good evening to you. the last few days of october have brought something a little drier and quieterfor many brought something a little drier and quieter for many of us, but it is not to last as we head into the start of november, things turn more u nsettled start of november, things turn more unsettled once again. more cloudy weather, some wet weather, some pretty windy weather and potentially some stormy weather for some of us, at least for the time. back to the
10:57 pm
hereinafter the rest of tonight, we see the outbreaks of rain from the west, just about all of the sing some wet weather through the night but it is going to be turning milder as the night wears on, temperatures between six and i2 as the night wears on, temperatures between six and 12 degrees. so into tomorrow, low—pressure taking charge of the scene, we will see some outbreaks of rain pushing through and with the south—westerly feet of air across the uk it is generally going to feel milder. so do the morning, we see this band of rain drifting eastwards across england across scotland and then we get a slice of drier and potentially briefly brighter weather before another band of heavy rain pushes into wells in the south—westerly during the day, it's going to be breezy but not specially windy just yet this temperatures a little bit up yet this temperatures a little bit up from where they have been from nine to 16 degrees is a good through friday night, that area of low pressure, look at what deepens more and more white lines and there's
10:58 pm
been more uncertainty on the shape of this area of low pressure on saturday but on the north and south of it, there will be very windy weather we are talking about the northern half of scotland in southern and central parts of england and wales, some wet weather spiralling around in some windy weather at the centre of the low and there will be some drier brighter conditions and some lighter winds, but to the north especially the south, confirmation of those gusty winds up to 70 mph or touch more and we like to keep a really close eye on that because they could cause some problems and temptress back down again by the stage of 13 degrees at best. as we move into the second after we the weekend, low— pressure second after we the weekend, low—pressure rules to be with us to look at the white lines, they start to stretch apart just a little and that means it will not be as windy on sunday, still quite breezy and there will be some outbreaks of rain at times but i think a fighting chance of seeing some drier weather

11:00 pm
this is bbc news i'm martine croxall. the headlines at eleven. as the election campaign gets underway — president trump wades in — he backs boris johnson and nigel farage and attacks the labour leader. jeremy corbyn will be so badly your country. he would be so bad, he would take in such bad places that your country has tremendous potential, it's a great country. the president's criticism came just hours after labour launched its election campaign — with a promise to take on, what they call, the establishment elite. we are going after the tax dodgers, we are going after the dodgy landlords, we are going after the bank —— the bad bosses, we are going after the big polluters because we know whose side we, the labour
