weather on monday. expect some wet weather on monday. still the potential for wintering is mixed in over hills in the north and some showers pushing in from the north—west later in the day. those temperatures again in the range of — 10 degrees. on tuesday, hard to be precise at this range but looks like we will see a mixed of sunny spells and showers, showers most frequent towards the north—west. signs of a dry interlude down towards the south and the temperature is still between six and 10 degrees. if you are looking for a prolonged spell of dry weather you probably do not want to see a childlike use. the jetstream still as we had through the middle and the latter part of next week is racing across the atlantic ringing further areas of low pressure in our direction. it looks like the area of low pressure, initially will mostly affect northern and western areas and that is where we are likely to have the wettest of the weather. high pressure will always be quite close by. that means they should be some dry interlude and when we get the dry interlude by night, the nights are likely to get chilly.

into the latter part of next week, still some wind and rain at times. some of those dry interlude is, some frosty nights. but for those places that are really looking for a dry outlook, i am afraid there is more rain on the way. hello. this is bbc news with lu kwesa burack. we'll be taking a look at tomorrow morning's papers in a moment. first the headlines: labour pledges to invest hundreds of billions of pounds in infrastructure like schools, hospitals and transport. the social transformation fund will begin the urgent task of repairing our social fabric that has been torn apart by the tories. the conservatives accuse labour of spraying money around like confetti, but they've promised to spend billions more, too, improving public services. there will be new hospitals, schools, railways, better broadband, new connections and opportunities for every part of our great nation.

two teenagers have been found guilty of murdering jodie chesney in a park in east london. two others have been cleared. flooding across parts of northern england — in sheffield, hundreds of people were stranded for hours in yorkshire's largest shopping centre. hello there and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the broadcaster henry bonsu, and the assistant comment editor at the telegraph, madeline grant. well, many of tomorrow's front pages are already in and many focus on developments on the campaign trail today. so, let's start off. labour and the conservatives have turned the election into a public—spending bidding war, according to the guardian,

with their pledges to invest billions in capital projects. the daily telegraph says jeremy corbyn has been "branded unfit to lead" by four former labour mps who told voters to back borisjohnson instead. the daily mail carries the same story with the headline "the labour veterans who plead: vote tory!". under the title "boris‘ britain", the mirror shows 88—year—old jill woolley — one of the victims, it says, of cuts to the nhs. in other news, the financial times claims that french president emmanuel macron has opened a rift with germany and other nato allies weeks ahead of a vital summit by warning that the alliance is suffering "brain—death". and alongside its election coverage, the times reports that more than 60 years after his death, the hollywood starjames dean, will star in a film about the vietnam war

using a digital avatar. let's start with the times. jeremy corbyn‘s cash spending spree? let's start with the times. jeremy corbyn's cash spending spree? we are talking about the proposals from labour to increase spending by £50 billion a year, hospitals, roads, borrowing to invest and grow the economy and put people back to work in reverse nine years of austerity. you get the impression from this headline that it is only labour being attacked this bid to launch 70 s being attacked this bid to launch 70 s style spending. but if you look deeper you can see an independent organisation says both labour and the tories are committed to taking public investment to levels not seen since the 70s. while labour was been £55 billion a year, the tories will increase by about £20 billion. the tories know even if they can't

outspend labour, you have to take the temperature of the country. they can see people are tired of austerity in hospitals, roads and digital broadband need investment. so they have to so they have turned a corner and they are not going to go business as usual, tax cuts et cetera, it has to be about growing the economy. even though they will try to remain prudent, they want to change back. will they be allowed to? by the electorate, or by sajid javid? when you look at this, i don't know about you, but many people will be seeing who will pay for this? quiet. both major parties are promising significant spending increases, there are orders of magnitude in difference between $20 billion and 55 billion pounds does make £20 billion and £55 billion.

but i think the most radical thing they have proposed in this article at the very end, where they talk about labour's plans for the labour market and they plan to allow — to give staff the right to choose their owi'i give staff the right to choose their own hours. i am quite intrigued by that. on the one side they could simply be something like people requesting flexible work from their employer, or if it is the radical thing you might expect from corbin and mcdonnell, you could end up in a situation where staff decide everything which is going to be a nightmare for businesses and coi'isuitiei’s. nightmare for businesses and consumers. what does that mean if you are trying to arrange to get your hair cut or, perhaps more seriously get a doctor's appointment? that is a rather extreme interpretation. perhaps that is, but we will see, won't we? give staff the right to choose their own hours, it says. i'm not sure how it works, but it does suggest a right

thatis works, but it does suggest a right that is presumably going to be enshrined in law somehow that that would essentially give workers complete carte blanche to decide their working hours. seeing the drift of where things went during the coalition period between 2010—15 where you had david cameron and nick lau, youngest fathers, taking their paternity rights, parental rights only, so perhaps they have realised this is the way we want to go. thinking about the work— life balance and if we are socialist and thinking about the ordinary people, we need to help with the quality of life, too. i don't think it will be a case of private sector businesses being told you must allow these people to choose when they can come in. ithink people to choose when they can come in. i think it will be more flexible working, initially with the public sector. well, that will be interesting to hear. we need far more details to be fleshed out. this is also an opposition that is flirting with the ideas of like capital controls to prevent people

from taking their money elsewhere, which to me as quite a serious vote of no—confidence in socialism's ability to win the of ideas because they would be saying they would leave the country. we are interested to see more about this policy, i think you could be the most radical thing they have proposed of all policies. 0k. another policy on the front page of the financial times, sajid javid is tearing up rules on spending, so prudence is still in there? i suppose this is a guy who comes from the thatcherite a wing of the party. even though coming up with £22 billion of public spending, he wants to make sure that he doesn't allow the prime —— prime minister's taxcutting instincts to run riot. the boris whisperer. not

exactly thatcherites. dominic cummings is allabout, exactly thatcherites. dominic cummings is all about, it's been his idea that you have to go big on the nhs, pump more money into it because he accepts it is a key issue for many working—class voters in the north that they are trying to target. so i think if there are to be thatcherite tax cuts, they are coming from him. maybe not from him, but according to this piece in the fte, borisjohnson wanted to raise the threshold at the moment —— in the threshold at the moment —— in the ft, that would cost £8 billion a year, presumably the figure is. and that would may be wrecked sajid javid's plans, because even though he wants to increase public spending by £22 billion a year for all of these big infrastructure projects, at the same time he wants to try and balance the budget within five yea rs. balance the budget within five years. so that would only leave £7 billion of school headroom for tax cuts —— of this fiscal headroom.

billion of school headroom for tax cuts —— of this fiscal headroomlj am cuts —— of this fiscal headroom.” am sure there are so cuts —— of this fiscal headroom.” am sure there are so many people who say we should keep this money for brexit uncertainty to help weather the storm. but it does strike me how borisjohnson is going to be a man for all seasons. rewarding higher earners with tax cuts, then going on with big spending and using low interest rates to boost infrastructure somewhat. but people aren't stupid and actually voters will start to ask questions about where all this money is coming from. and also, who is he at his core? what does he really believe in? 0k. let's turn now to the front page of the telegraph. four labour rebels. four of the telegraph. four labour rebels. fourof them. coming the telegraph. four labour rebels. four of them. coming out to encourage their fellow labour

supporters not to vote for mr corbin oi'i supporters not to vote for mr corbin on this occasion but to support borisjohnson, quite on this occasion but to support boris johnson, quite an extraordinary development. sometimes people do say i can't back this letter anymore, i have no confidence in him. but then, especially in the labour party, i feel the tribalism is more embedded than the conservative party, you may disagree. you think? and then coming out and saying don't vote for him but vote for the tories, that is not from people who have traditionally been on the right of the labour party either, these are classic allies. i suppose it does depend on where your starting point in the labour party is. they aren't ian austin. no, they are not. he has a visceral loathing ofjeremy corbyn, because his father was jewish and relatives of his work were killed in the holocaust in the second world war. so that comes from a deep place. and is also being attacked about the trade with israel. so a

lot of pro— palestine left—wingers, that will stick in their court was not that i think his intervention on radio 4 was dismissed. including john mcdonnell on stage. the public dismiss it. it's all right for fellow m ps dismiss it. it's all right for fellow mps do say all right, all this is something and the other, but surely it is the public that matter here? the public that follow really closely politics, they see it is the usual suspects. someone who eats and drinks politics, they wouldn't necessarily know these people. it's a very westminster bubble thing to assume everyone ki'iows a very westminster bubble thing to assume everyone knows who iain watson and john woodcock are. i think the more important thing to come out today is the dilemma it presents to moderate mps within the labour party who vocally oppose corbin and when people like luciano berger have departed and assurances,

they haven't done anything materially to bring down corbyn and challenge fundamentally the climate of ignoring anti—semitism, and in some cases, covering it up. we're going an interesting time in politics. tectonic plates are shifting and realignments are often exaggerated. but we are really seeing it here, aren't we? it's not just happening in the labour party, it is also happening in the conservative party, having the whip withdrawn and dominic grieve, a tory to his core, now finds himself without a party standing as an independent. and splitting the vote. so we had ian austin, john woodcock, tom harris is the third and michael mccann fourth. he was a scottish mp. also in this article is jack straw.

i'm interested to know about what you think about his comments in the past? what do you make of this? if he does become prime minister then they are going to have to answer to they are going to have to answer to the electorate for the racism and economic vandalism this vulva going to recon this country. strong words. very strong words. but i think it is prettyjustified by some of the things that the labour party top brass have said in response to all of this. so going back to the times briefly, john mcdonnell accused the jewish chronicle of being behind the times, launching an appeal to non—jewish members of the public about their concerns and accusing him of being behind the times, it sounds like jeremy corbyn accusing the jews of not having a joyous sense of irony. even this party, not willing to learn from its mistakes.

we must look at parallels as well because as tone deaf as some labour figures have been on the issue of anti—semitism, we've seen the same thing in the conservative party relating to islamophobia and let's not remember, there is anti—semitism in the conservative party. let's not pretend because labour has a particular issue with anti—semitism that conservatives don't and also other types of racism. i'm not pretending that there is only one pa rt pretending that there is only one part which is currently being investigated by the european court of human rights and it's the labour party. not to take away from those of you've described. let's turn to the front. this is a story that broke today. the front of the sun. aston villa player atkinson. he was

tasered, felled by an electric shock. there are limits to what we can say about it that it raises concerns about the less lethal alternative. stun guns. he doesn't set on the front page here but you can look elsewhere for the detail and around 17,000 are trading to use tasers. the big question is, if they've got it, how do you use it? if you didn't have it, are there other techniques? you get a bit of an arms race. you can sometimes see lethal outcomes. when this new

policy was raised back in september. they said they were going to raise around 10 million, and looking at using a taser rollout. there wasn't unanimous support for this. it was split between rank—and—file and superiors. superiors did not like this. boots on the ground, saying we support this. the police federation of england and wales is often more hawkish than this. the police chief counsel. of course, the police federation were the ones who represent people, the men and women on the beach to put their lives on the line, the thin blue line. the big difficulty is we are policed by consent. 65 million of us being kept by the peace by police officers and

many of us, when we are approached, don't shrink back in fear. we know they are not armed, we know most don't have malign intentions. it's more difficult for younger people particularly of minority backgrounds but we want to keep that compact with the police officers and if they are more routinely armed with lethal weapons, it will shut about. are more routinely armed with lethal weapons, it will shut aboutm might well be that in a high—profile case like this, i think it was 18 people have died from being tasered in the last 13 years but a high—profile case like this sparks debate about validity. and how they used. let's go back to that telegraph. china's children given a videogame curfew. she is the game among us, she is a serious gamer.” used to have serious substance abuse

issues with sims two, but i weaned myself off it. the chinese government are concerned. it's the single biggest market for video games in the world now concerned about the amount of time the young people are spending computers so they decided digital curfew between 10pm and 8am which is being implemented by the chinese state and there could be some periods of home, who are thinking, i would like to do that but does show that terrifying level of state power over the internet. how they going to do this? there isn't too much detail. they launched time and spending restrictions for children and require players to register with their real names. they have very enhanced facial wreck mission. it caused trouble when it was piloted in london. they got out on steroids

in china. i can see you! the internet is very highly policed. in china. i can see you! the internet is very highly policedm really is big brother. it is. we've been considering how matt hancock was considering how they might restrict playtime for young people andi restrict playtime for young people and i personally think it would be. i don't know how you're going to do from central government. they know how to reconnect wi—fi. from central government. they know how to reconnect wi-fi. these things are always set by older people who have much less knowledge of how things work. you are millennial. what is a vpn, let's just leave it there. let's end with james dean. there is a film called finding jack.

about military dogs at the end of the vietnam war. the filmmakers were searching high and low for months to find a character called rogan who is the secondary lead. they ended up finding james the secondary lead. they ended up findingjames dean, the secondary lead. they ended up finding james dean, a guy who died 64 years ago, still a cult hero, and the family, his family agreed to it. they are going to use images of him, photographs of him and bring him back to life, and we will see him walking around and acting and... was there one with princess leia? peter cushing, what is the name of the baddie in starwars, cushing, what is the name of the baddie in star wars, a cushing, what is the name of the baddie in starwars, a new hope. they completely re—created him. he wasn't into many scenes but clearly the technology, they will do more of this and i personally think it's

somewhat depressing because it suggests we have run out of ideas. chris evans, would find it awful.” think it would be lovely to see this kind of image because he was a bit ofa kind of image because he was a bit of a rebel in his day. you like him, james dean? he will do. it's a great moment. lovely to see you both as ever. thank you for watching. our final edition of the papers. they are all on line. seven days a week. 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 to madeline and henry. goodbye.

good evening. we start with the europa league and what seemed to be an improbable task for celtic. winning in italy was something they hadn't managed in 12 attempts. but tonight's 2—1victory over lazio in rome has done more thanjust break that cycle. olivier ntcham's dramatic stoppage—time strike means neil lennon's men qualify for the knockout stages of the competition — with two games to spare. lydia campbell was watching. the pre—match light show was hiding it but in between the darkness, you canjust it but in between the darkness, you can just see the empty seats, with marcio serving a partial stadium ban for racist chanting by supporters but the fans who were allowed in we re but the fans who were allowed in were soon cheering. celtic leaving them all alone in the box. a crowd of 8000 celtic fans travelled to

rome for this one and it was soon their turn to celebrate. james forrest pulling the team level. celtic had fraser foster to thank for the win and they had to thank him here as well. and just like in glasgow, celtic saved the best until last. sending celtic through to the knockout stages. it's historic, you know? it's a privilege for me to coach these players, the back staff who did an unbelievablejob players, the back staff who did an unbelievable job behind the scenes. we have a good place at the minute. thisjob done as we have a good place at the minute. this job done as far as qualifying for the new year. we have a lot of work to do domestically but it's an

amazing night for the team. their scottish rivals rangers got the job done as well — enjoying the home comforts at ibrox as they beat porto 2—nil. alfredo morelos broke the deadlock mid—way through the second half with his 11th european goal and 21st of the season before steven davis' deflected shot hit the back of the net to put rangers on top of their group. manchester united also made their way through to the last 32 after a comfortable 3—nil victory over pa rtizan belgrade at old trafford — mason greenwood with the first. anthony martial scoring the pick of the three with this great solo goal and marcus rashford rounding it off, to make sure united stay top of their group. )and wolves snatched victory over slovan bratislava with rauljimenez scoring the winner in stoppage time at molineux.. leaving them needing just one point from their last two games to reach

the knockout stages. england manager gareth southgate has named the leicester city midfielder, james maddison in his squad for their euro 2020 qualifiers against montenegro and kosovo this month.(oov)maddison had to pull out of their last set of matches due to illness, but he was then spotted in a casino during the international break. nonetheless, southgate has decided to give him another chance. great britain have theirfirst gold medal of the world para athletics championships — and it was a fourth world title for paul blake. he won the t36 800—metres on day one in dubai, in a season's best time. and he goes again later in the week, in his main event, the 400—metres. the former england and northampton hooker, dylan hartley has announced he's retiring from professional rugby, after failing to recover from a long—standing knee injury. he hasn't played since december, missing england's rugby world cup run. he's northampton's longest serving player with 251 appearances in 14 seasons. hartley said the last few months had been difficult "physically and mentally" and, while his career wasn't "perfect he wouldn't have had it any other way".

batsmanjonny bairstow has been added to england's test squad six for the two—match series against new zealand. he comes in as back—up for the injured joe denly. bairstow will stay in new zealand after the five—match t20 series concludes on sunday. the first test starts in fhangarei next tuesday. that's all the sport for now but there's more on the bbc sport website, inlcuding the news that the northern ireland manager michael o'neill is set to take over at stoke. for now though from all the team here goodnight. good evening. the weather has been causing problems today, leading to numerous flood warnings being issued. the bbc weather website will keep you up—to—date with the latest on those flood warnings. you can see

on those flood warnings. you can see on the radar picture, this slow—moving band of heavy and persistent rain affecting parts of the east and north midlands, parts of northern england, the rain getting into north wales as well. this is the area where the met office issued an amber warning for rain up to 100 millimetres possible in some places before the night is done. you can see the rain continues for a time done. you can see the rain continues fora time and done. you can see the rain continues for a time and then sinking south across the midlands, into wales. still the potential for some really poor travelling conditions and further loading problems. to the south—east, showers will continue through the night, clear spells as well and it will turn quite chilly and further north and west, the far north of england, northern ireland and scotland, some clear spells overhead. one or two showers and some of those likely to be wintry or high ground. it's very chilly indeed. we going to tomorrow, some showery rain to contend with but i think the main messages that it will be much drier than it has been today. in fact, a decent amount of sunshine but it is going to stay

rather chilly, temperatures between six and 11 degrees. friday evening, we should lose most of those showers, clear skies, some fog patches, freezing fog patches because the temperatures are going to ta ke because the temperatures are going to take a tumble, quite widely down below freezing but by the end of the night, something a little milder starting to show its hand because here comes our next change. another frontal system pushing in. it also as it bumps into the cold air, about 300m, the high ground of wales, maybe in the hills the midlands, a bit of snow. it's worth bearing in mind if you are travelling. let's just for degrees in birmingham. always driest and brightest the further east and north you are. this little bump on the isobars works in, ridge of high pressure so after quite a lot of weather action, sunday promises to be a calmer day. still the potential for some showery rain buta still the potential for some showery rain but a decent amount of

sunshine, still feeling cool, highs of 6— sunshine, still feeling cool, highs of 6- 10 sunshine, still feeling cool, highs of 6— 10 degrees. i'm rico hizon in singapore, the headlines claiming it's a ‘conjob'. president trump denies that he asked his attorney general to say he'd done nothing wrong in his call with ukraine's president. from friends to rivals — why the relationship between america and china has become a battle that the us can't afford to lose i'm nuala mcgovern in london. also in the programme: a corridor allowing sikhs to cross from india into pakistan to visit one of the religion's holiest sites is due to open on saturday. and in the ring with the female amateur sumo champion who's fighting
