us. us. still m g gin: n m5 in“ ”itufuf fuc— you with us. still standing after three weeks of this election campaign. comments by president trump lead a majority of front pages, including the ft. it reports that he will wait until after next year's us election to reach a trade—deal with china. the ft says that's spooked investors. but it's mr trump's comments about the nhs that have caught the attention of the guardian. mr trump's assurances that the us would not be interested in access to the health service, it reports thatjeremy corbyn is deeply sceptical — and if he and mr trump chatted at buckingham palace tonight, would attempt to raise his opposition to any future trade agreement that including the nhs. i wonder if they did bump into each other. coming from the opposite side of the political debate, the express leads on mr trump's quote that wouldn't want the nhs even ‘if it was served on a silver platter‘. he obviously knows how we operate in

this country. the i says thatjeremy corbyn doubts the presidents pledge to the health service. the metro describes the ‘humble hero' who helped save lives in friday's london bridge terror attack — wucash k says he reacted on ‘instinct‘. and the times features an exclusive about a british company that has built a global tax—haven used by international crime gangs and fraudsters. caroline and george, let's plunge straight in. most of that about the nhs. most of the headlines are. what do you make about that? in some ways, it is exactly what we expected. trump to the uk, desperate on both sides he does not intervene in the selection. he said in his press c0 nfe re nce in the selection. he said in his press conference today, i am not going to interfere in the election, before backing borisjohnson. the story they have been pushing for seven days, this suggestion that the nhs would be on the table and any potential future trade deal, they really wa nted potential future trade deal, they really wanted to have this opportunity to put pressure on trump to a nswer opportunity to put pressure on trump to answer some of those questions. of course, he medially quashed that.

it's funny, i was looking in the telegraph as it gave an expected boost to the conservatives when he dismissed these claims. other papers saying they were well briefed lines commencing the downing street may have fed them to the president before his visit here. it is leading most of the national newspapers committee telegraph you're being a big conservative supporting newspaper ——, the telegraph here being a big conservative supporting newspaper. i think labour will be happy to see these newspapers tonight, even though he is dismissing it would be on the table. we have to remember one of the reasons it might be on the table is because the president himself said that during a press conference with theresa may only several months ago, during a state visit here. but i think the fact that this issue, whether it is from the site of labour pushing it or him denying it, the fact that it is on the front page will do no harm to labour and

their sort of ambition to get this at the top of the news agenda. george, it was interesting, hearing him say, i have no idea where the story came from. i have a feeling it came from you, mr president! indeed. in six might say —— and six might say that... if donald trump is, has taken the say that... if donald trump is, has ta ken the effort say that... if donald trump is, has taken the effort to stick to the script. he is being unusually un—message here, there is reason for suspicion, and certainly i think the conservatives will be relieved he stuck to the script i also think they will be worried that, not much more than a week out of the general election, it is the nhs dominating. traditionally in general election campaigns, that is what labour ones on the run page. they dominate that

issue. corbyn announces pressure. they both like the picture of president and mrs trump on the steps of downing street, with a lovely wreath behind them. but it is interesting, because i suppose the impression i get from talkative voters is twofold, really. on the one hand, they don't understand why it has come up, because we don't have a commercial health service. why would he come up anyway? on the other hand, the more there were denials from donald trump and boris johnson, both people who perhaps haveissues johnson, both people who perhaps have issues about trust in terms of the credibility of what they say, the credibility of what they say, the more suspicious people become. and that again plays into the stuff that later mac would hope... —— labour would help. i think that's right. the question of trust is going to come up, particularly the fa ct going to come up, particularly the fact that it is the president talking about it and having certain issues about things the president has set in the past. it isn't going

to help downplay that never to. also, i think it's again one of those things that, it is keeping the trajectory of a story going. we have had now going for weeks, it feels like the macro -- it —— it feels like... in focus groups, and certainly in paulding we have seen for a newspaper, it is the public believe that there were something to be worried about here. they actually think that the labour party has a right and point about raising this. that might itself be filled by the fact that he president himself has said that everything is on the table. and then sort of reversed himself. and pharma is a really big industry. it's a really big industry in the united states. you can understand why it would be very lucrative for that to be put on the table, but as one official, when i was talking to them last week, said to me, it is... laughter

not said to me, it is... laughter n ot exa ctly said to me, it is... laughter not exactly the denial i was expecting. there is more to be coming in the story. we will see if there is any breaking of ranks during this visit. we have now had on the front of the i, corbyn... the guardian is the better headline for labour. corbyn casts doubt on trump ozment nhs pledge. presumably, they wa nt to ozment nhs pledge. presumably, they want to quarrel with this one. i wonder where they'd put this little —— presumably they won't quarrel with this one. the key word there is try and confront, rather than, did confront. there may well have been several obstacles — strategically placed cars and other guests. large gentleman and ladies with things like this in their ear. yes. labour leader at palace reception. if you

said this to anyjournalist, covering labour into 15, it would've raised eyebrows. this is the indication of him sticking to his owfi indication of him sticking to his own script anyway, of not being afraid to go into uncharted territory. for jeremy afraid to go into uncharted territory. forjeremy corbyn and labour, donald trump is a dream us president to have at this moment because there is sometimes a supposition made that leave voters in this country also like donald trump because donald trump casts himself as mr brexit. it shows if donald trump is very unpopular, even unpopular with a lot of leave voters, and this is why boris johnson would do all he can to avoid being photographed... we have not had the big hungry anything. to the extent he lost... you did not have the usual photo you would have had

if barack obama was so president. he was the us president who was probably more popular in this country than david cameron was at the time. it is interesting, the calculations the parties have to make. this is all happening in the middle of an election campaign. as we saw at the weekend, you cannot control event. you cannot. going back to george's points, it does also show a little bit of a shift in the startjeremy corbyn. during the state visit, he did not go... the fa ct state visit, he did not go... the fact he is going, it's sort of a more premise to —— more prime ministerial thing to do. we saw questions before about the shoot took a policy. one of the most eye—catching things i think he said over the weekend was that he would reconsider that position to a certain extent and was now pretty except that lethal force might be neededin except that lethal force might be needed in certain circumstances. for

him, something... a big shift for him. one person we are not sure if they made the reception, sajid javid, upset that he was kept away from donald trump once a go. let's talk about the gambling story on the front of the mail. this is the news that, notable for me, for more gamblers, people are gambling than we thought. you see quite a lot of stories about young people drinking, smoking less because of increased awareness about health. they are saying here two thirds of men aged 25-34 saying here two thirds of men aged 25—34 gambled last year, nearly half of them online. i think the key there is online. and you see this in terms of people, it doesn't feel like such a conscious act, in the same that we all have some subscription services we never get

around to cancelling. same way that you don't really feel you are gambling if you're not handing over or putting coins into the machine. were you surprised by this, the percentages? even if you take out national... over a third... it's a lot. i am going to admit now, this age group is not my age group. i'm just a little outside of it. when i talked to my friends, and productively my female friends, i think if there was an epidemic with their husbands and gambling, it will be talked about. i don't feel like every third person i am eating is telling me that they have got this particular problem. it may be a generational thing. it is very likely it is. my generation were much more likely to drink and smoke than this generation, and so perhaps this is the next big thing, coming down the trucks. and i agree with george. the smartphone has kind of

taken over our lives. i'm amazed to sit on the train or anywhere, really, it is what people are doing. my really, it is what people are doing. my husband is forever yelling at me for trying to watch television with him whilst multitasking. it is the thing of our age, so it is perhaps the thing we will see more of it. a worrying stat, really. indeed. the nhs making the point, the chief executive, this is another area for us executive, this is another area for us to have to find. it is another case of the in hs having to pick up the public health pieces. george, caroline, thank you very much —— the nhs having to pick up. more front pages at half past iipm. nhs having to pick up. more front pages at half past "pm. my thanks to caroline and george. had lines at the top of the hour. the weather up

next. hello, good evening. as far as the weather goes over the next 2a hours, quite mixed conditions across the uk. let me show you what's going on. approaching the west is a weather front. the south and east, relatively clear. a nearby area of high pressure for overnight, we are going to see cloud taken without breaks of rain getting into western counties of northern ireland, western areas of scotland. here is a mild night with temperatures in western scotland around nine celsius. across england and wales, we will continue to see patches of cloud and clear spells coming and going. temperatures could get down low enough to give us a touch of frost in the countryside and there may well be a few stan five patches around. —— mist and fog patches. for the northwest, this band of rain that slowly sink its way into northern england and north wales as we head into the afternoon.

south and east of this, we keep the bright weather but it is still quite chilly. to the north west of our front, showers in the northwest of scotland. it is here we will see the nation's highest temperatures. problems brewing in terms of persistent and heavy rain targeting northwest of scotland, where over the western highlands, 70 or 80 70 or80 mm 70 or 80 mm of rain. perhaps more that over high ground. thursday comes the rain will also be affecting northern ireland. the south and east, though, at this stage staying dry and bright with pressure south—westerly winds working in. it is getting mild for most of us. what will follow through thursday night is a very mild night, with temperatures around i! or 12 degrees. a real change, if you think of recent nights. we have seen some sharp frost. the reason for this is

it is going to be cloudy, wet and quite windy. the winds coming in initially from a south—westerly direction. later in the day, northwesterly winds working in across the north. some cooler air across the north. some cooler air across the north. some cooler air across the northern areas. 7 degrees in storm .in . in the midlands, highs of 12 celsius. we can prospects? we are not working out too badly. sunday see some thicker cloud. could turn quite heavy, the rain, on sunday. saturday looks like the wetter of the two days of the weekend at this stage. that's latest weather.

this is bbc news. the headlines at 11:00: president trump arrives in london for the nato summit, promising not to get involved in the election campaign. he's been at a reception at number 10 tonight, hosted by the prime minister, borisjohnson. he was also at buckingham palace, meeting the queen. earlier, he made the kind of political intervention he said he'd avoid. i think boris is very capable and he'll do a good job. do you have words for a possible prime minister corbyn? i can work with anybody, i'm a very easy person to work with. greta thunberg sails back to europe for a climate summit. scientists say the last decade looks set to be the warmest on record. the 12—year—old boy killed in a hit—and—run incident outside
