at a key tory seat in esher. injusta injust a few in just a few hours, the injust a few hours, the campaign will draw to a close and this election means a vitaljunction for the country. we'll bring you the latest in the last few frenetic hours of campaigning. also tonight... a teenager is found guilty of the murder of 14—year—old jaden moodie, killed in a drugs gang war. aung san suu kyi, nobel peace peace prize winner, defends myanmar against accusations of genocide. and coming up on bbc news, it's the final night of the champions league groups. spurs and manchester city are through, but much to play for in the other matches.

good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. on the last day of campaigning before tomorrow's general election — party leaders have travelled from one key seat to the next, from dawn til dusk, trying to win last minute support. the two men vying to be prime minister — borisjohnson and jeremy corbyn — have criss—crossed the country speaking to undecided voters. the conservative leader started the day on a milk round in west yorkshire, then onto derby — to pose with a pie. next it was south wales, then essex and later he'll be in london. the labour leader was in glasgow bright and early, before travelling to a rally in middlesbrough and then onto south yorksire. he's now in bedford and later he'll travel to london. our political editor laura kuenssberg has been on much of the journey with them. mrs monaghan at number eight was the yorkshire tory voter with an unusual lookman this morning. what are you doing up so early? we brought you

the chocolate milk, orange juice. 0h, chocolate milk! the last day of any election can be peak political pantomime. i will be with you in a second. boris johnson even retreated into a second. boris johnson even retreated intoa giant second. boris johnson even retreated into a giant fridge when a reporter tried to persuade him on live tv. don't be mistaken, this is an intensely serious election. the choice emblazoned everywhere, at every stage of the tory campaign. leaving the e next month or the path to another referendum —— leaving the eu. there are claims that you have not been completely straight with people, and people look at how you reacted to that news about the nhs and thought it didn't look human at all. anybody who experiences a bad time in the nhs has my full sympathy. we have all been there. that is why i want to concentrate on

getting cash into the nhs now. only if you get brexit done can you move the country forward. to answer your question i do think that we have the best programme for the country, laura. yes or no, do you think you will be moving back into number ten? it is very, very tight. you must have a hunch. you have seen what the polls say. we'll remember what happened in 2017. of course we are fighting now for every vote. his frantic travels to sell his brexit deal are the target for the other major parties. jo swinson! the lib dems have been trying to win you around, promising to do everything they can to stop him. their enthusiastic faces on the stump in the south—east don't hide how tough it has been. these final hours of the campaign can make a crucial difference to whether borisjohnson will gaina difference to whether borisjohnson will gain a majority or whether we have a real chance to stop brexit.

there's everything to play for, in these final hours. others are trying that side of the argument, but this election isn't just about the shape of our relationship with the eu, but the united kingdom itself. if no one gets a majority, nicola sturgeon could see such as for independence. if we don't want to be waking up to a five year borisjohnson government on friday then voting snp in scotla nd on friday then voting snp in scotland as a way to lock him out of office, to escape the brexit mess and make sure that we take our future into our own hands. there is only one other contender for the biggestjob of all. forjeremy corbyn and his followers, in front ofa corbyn and his followers, in front of a smaller crowd, this time. prime minister corbyn! this is their chance to make the words of this chart come true. i have not come

here to deliver milk, or to hide on average. he was offering another vote on brexit, with a chance to stay or leave, in a major change of direction. very much a last—minute scramble, how do you feel today? absolutely fine, we have been in constituencies all round the country. and i think the message is getting through. do you think it is getting through. do you think it is getting harder? i think the support is growing and there's a greater understanding that we cannot go on with underfunding of public services and a government that has not straightforward with us. lots of people around the country are worried about what is going to happen in some parts of the country. you show me an election candidate that isn't worried in any candidate being a candidate means that you get worried. i tell you what, we are going to win this thing. you think that? applause

see you guys, thank you. jeremy corbyn surprised expectation last time round. but exciting some labour tribes isn't the same as winning around the country. the rivals for number ten are both famously flawed and can repel, as well as inspire. we have heard voices around the land expressing frustration, may be fair, that the choice before them doesn't live up to the scale of what lies ahead, but tomorrow, only one party, only one leader's road, will lead to power. let's speak to laura kuenssberg in york. weeks of electioneering we have had now, coming to an end. do you think this campaign has captured the public imagination? i'm not sure that it has. for a lot of people we have met around the country, including some candidates, it has been a question of grinning and bearing it rather than people lurching into this with big enthusiasm. both of their main rivals for number ten have had big

challenges to them, too. today, michel barnier, the european chief negotiator for those trade talks that are so important, that boris johnson says can be wrapped up in a year, he was heard to say today that would be unrealistic. on the other side, jeremy corbyn has been challenged time and again over whether his radical manifesto is credible, whether the sums that he has put forward really add up. and there is a sense from the voters that we have talked to around the country over the last six weeks that they are looking at the two main offerings and thinking, i'm not really quite convinced by either of them. of course, the opinion polls suggest, most people inside the party suggest, that the tories are on course to be the biggest party if not confident of securing an outright majority but it seems that at this stage, it doesn't seem like anyone will be cruising to victory on any kind of surge of enthusiasm to stop it has been a cold, wet and sometimes miserable election campaignfor many sometimes miserable election campaign for many of the politicians

involved in it and i think that is how quite a few of our viewers might look at it as well. and there is no sense, really, that people will be rushing to fill in their ballot tomorrow in the polling booths, in the privacy of the polling booths, with a sort ofjoy and their hearts. it has been pretty strange campaign and it may yet throw up some strange results. we will have see. we will see, laura, thank you very much. with just a few hours of campaigning left, let's take a look at some of today's other election news. the co—leaders of the green party, jonathan bartley and sian berry, have rung an alarm bell outside parliament — as a warning, they say, for the climate emergency. the leader of the brexit party, nigel farage, has said he fears brexit will be party, nigel farage, the conservatives gain a majority — which he says is likely. the plaid cymru leader adam price is ending his party's campaign by proposing a law which would make it an offence for politicians to tell lies. it would see elected politicians in the european, westminster and devolved parliaments face criminal charges if they knowingly

mislead the public. as campaigning comes to an end on the eve of the general election have you made up your mind about who to vote for in the polling booth tomorrow? our deputy political editor, john pienaar, has been to the election battleground of watford — a constituency that voted to leave the eu and a tory marginal — hello, children. it's time to believe, or try to. how are you? believing comes easily to some. the rest of us are promised billions for the nhs and schools, thousands more police. everyone knows what they want. i want to see more police on the streets and more money put into the national health service. so more for everybody. more for everybody, yes. but who to believe? the marginal seat of watford stayed tory through years of austerity. now the parties are poles apart. many say they haven't decided or won't vote. most will. i'm voting conservative. why? we have to look after our national health service. it's so precious. labour say they'll put money in.

but they all say these things, don't they? you just have to go with what you believe. i'm voting labour because ijust want the tories out, really. i think they're running public services into the ground, and ijust don't agree with anything they do or say. but if this election‘s about giveaways and retail offers, the battle's over which party's offer looks most tempting, who's most trusted. the voters' choice will reshape britain, and maybe the biggest reason for that is the b word. tired. who isn't this week, or worse? knackered. this election has felt tough on everyone, and brexit outweighs almost every other issue. for me, it's brexit, mainly because we can stand on our own two feet. we're more than capable of standing on our own two feet. we don't need people in brussels to tell us what we can and can't do, making laws that we have to adhere to. leave, remain, why? remain, the reasons being that it would be more beneficial for our country in terms ofjobs,

the way people feel, obviously the unity between everybody as well. as for who to follow, some who've covered miles campaigning for labour don't likejeremy corbyn. many are asking themselves, is boris johnson truly fit to bear the burden of office? # have yourself a merry little christmas... tis the season of goodwill, but polling day comes first. tough for this young music schoolteacher. it's my first time voting, so i will definitely be voting and i'll be giving my opinion, but i'm not sure which way i'm going to vote or who i'm going to vote for as i do think there are quite a few empty promises. # so have yourself... soon we'll be celebrating... christmas, not the election, most of us, even with the best will in the world. # now. john pienaar, bbc news, watford.

as we've heard — the party leaders have been travelling around the country — trying to shore up support and sway any undecided voters. so just which constituencies do boris johnson and jeremy corbyn need to win to become prime minister? our chief political correspondent vicki young has been looking at the electoral landscape. six weeks ago borisjohnson called this election, fed up with the hung parliament that he said was trying to stop him delivering brexit. so will his gamble pay off, or willjeremy corbyn do enough to deny an outright conservative victory like last time? after all the campaigning, some people are still making up their minds. the bbc has been tracking the polls. both labour and the conservatives have gained ground during the campaign, but the tories have been consistently ahead. the liberal democrats have fallen back, as have the brexit party, after deciding not to stand in conservative seats. one key question is how much of the lib dem vote

labour has been able to attract. for borisjohnson to be returned as prime minister with an absolute majority, the conservatives will need around 326 mp5. fewer than that, and he will struggle to pass his brexit deal because the other parties in parliament don't back it. jeremy corbyn, however, doesn't necessarily need to win as many seats. if the conservatives lose seats to the lib dems and the snp, then theoretically, he could form a government with the same number of mps he got in 2017 if other parties are prepared to back a labour government. this is the electoral map from 2017. this time, the difference between a large conservative majority and a hung parliament with perhaps mr corbyn as pm could be determined by a few thousand votes in key areas where the contest was really close last time round. if labour are to prevent a conservative majority, they will need to hold onto the areas of red in the midlands and in the north—east.

but this could be a problem. this is the result map of the brexit referendum. many of those areas labour will need to hold on to voted leave, and this is where the conservatives will be hoping to make gains. a quick reminder of how election that will unfold. —— election night. at ten o'clock, we'll get the first indication of what's coming with the exit poll that is based on a survey of how people voted. the first results from places like sunderland and newcastle will start coming in from about 11, and then some of the key declarations from about 1am. it promises to be quite a night. vicki young reporting there. in scotland there are 59 seats up for grabs, many of them marginal. and as well as brexit, the possibility of a second independence referendum is a key factor influencing how people will vote. our scotland editor sarah smith looks at the main issues in the election in scotland. you might come to the panto to try and escape the election. but even at the rehearsals for a in glasgow's

maryhill, politics loom large. in scotla nd maryhill, politics loom large. in scotland that means both brexit and independence. since the independence referendum, i don't think any cat that i have been a part of has gone longer than a week without politics coming up, which is fantastic if not a bit entertaining and scary sometimes as well. in westminster, scotland's voice never heard. they don't care. what matters to you? independence and brexit. it is about what gets sorted first. we didn't wa nt to what gets sorted first. we didn't want to leave the eu the first time we voted for it and we were promised we voted for it and we were promised we we re we voted for it and we were promised we were not going to do that, and 110w we were not going to do that, and now we are, regardless of how we feel about it, so that will be the final nail in the coffin of us being a part of this union. the election in scotland is hard to call, as so many seats have tiny majorities. lanark and hamilton east is a three—way marginal. tomorrow, this church will be a polling station where the result is impossible to predict. places like this vividly

illustrate how scottish politics has been transformed by the independence debate and now brexit. as those issues have overtaken old party loyalties, you can see what was a car labour heartland, which had turned to the snp, could now conceivably become a tory seat. in east renfrewshire, even flower arranging gets political when the teacher is the granddaughter of a suffragette, who told her... kathleen, whatever happens, you must vote. the scottish conservatives are hoping to hold onto constituencies like this one that they won in 2017 by making this election more about independence than brexit. by making this election more about independence than brexitlj by making this election more about independence than brexit. i feel very disenfranchised. i voted to remain, so! very disenfranchised. i voted to remain, so i am not keen on a tory government. i want to stay in the uk, so! government. i want to stay in the uk, so i don't want to vote for the snp. i don't want scotland to be independent by any means. we are pa rt of independent by any means. we are part of the uk and i wish to stay that way. scottish voters have two

big, interconnected constitutional issues to confront. in an election that may not settle either of them. sarah smith, bbc news, glasgow. so what's the picture in wales and northern ireland? in a moment, we'll hearfrom our wales correspondent hywel griffith, but first from belfast, here's our correspondent emma vardy. the focus of a general election inevitably centres on who's going to get the keys to number ten. and as important as that is, it's not always paramount to everyone in northern ireland. yes, there are 18 parliamentary seats up for grabs here in a battle dominated by those who want a united ireland versus those who want to remain british. but green and orange aside, and that big brexit divide, this time there's another issue that's emerged on the doorsteps, and it's one which unites everyone. at some point, we'll all need the people behind these doors, and northern ireland's health service is in crisis.

waiting lists are at unprecedented levels, the worst in the uk, with people waiting years for operations and nurses set to strike for the first time. this is cutting through as a big issue in the election, even though it isn't governed by westminster and is supposed to be run by northern ireland's devolved government at stormont. but you won't find many politicians coming to these doors. it's been nearly three years since power—sharing collapsed. civil servants are running public services, but they have little powers to tackle a crisis. it means whoever gets the keys to number ten will have to keep one eye on getting this seemingly ungovernable place back to business and means the election in northern ireland has become about issues largely beyond mps' control. wales is traditionally a labour stronghold. the party has come first in every general election vote here for a century. two years ago, it took 28 of the a0 welsh seats, including this constituency of gower. but during the campaign, that grip may have loosened.

the polls suggest that the conservatives are on course to take several of those seats, including this one. by putting brexit at the front and centre of his campaign, borisjohnson has been trying to woo lifelong labour supporters who voted to leave the eu. and there are plenty of them in wales, which overall supported brexit. labour politicians i've spoken to concede that they face another challenge. jeremy corbyn‘s popularity ratings in wales have been poor. they have meant he's struggled to connect with their heartland. during the campaign he's made one visit to wales, a tour of constituencies last weekend. but what about the other parties? plaid cymru's adam price has been very visible, thanks to the televised leaders' debate. but plaid still face a fight to hold onto their four seats, while the lib dems hope their pro—remain pact with plaid will helpjo swinson hold on to her one welsh constituency. but the real story will be what happens to labour's vote and whether brexit has

broken its dominance here. in today's other news, a 19—year—old drug dealer has been found guilty of the murder of 14—year—old jaden moodie, who was knocked off his moped and stabbed repeatedly back in january. the court heard how a violent turf war between drugs gangs was being fought on the streets of east london, culminating in the "shocking and cowardly" murder of young jaden. adina campbell has more. another young life cut short, caused by knife crime in london. jaden moodie wasjust14 by knife crime in london. jaden moodie was just 1a years old when he was murdered. the final moments of his life captured on this shocking cctv footage. while on a moped, he is rammed into by a stolen black mercedes. a hooded gang armed with large knives jump out and repeatedly stabbed him in an attack lasting just 1a seconds. the teenager had only moved to london from nottingham six months before he was killed. jaden was ambitious, love life. he

loved his family, he left his grandma. he was just fun to be around because he would always play jokes and pranks on us. during the two—week trial, the jury heard bed had links to a gang and sold drugs for them. on the night of his death, he was targeted by a rival gang, also in the east london area. on the evening jaden was killed, some of the residents living on this road in leighton reported seeing the gang members stomping and stamping on the teenager before the car wheel spun away. the 14—year—old was left quivering with trails of blood coming away from his body. today 19—year—old madeline has been found guilty of murder. he is expected to be sentenced next week. the political leader

of myanmar, aung san suu kyi, has been defending her country against accusations of genocide at the international court ofjustice in the netherlands. the nobel peace prize winner said military operations against rohingya muslims in 2017 — in which thousands were killed and hundreds of thousands fled the country — was the fault of rohingya militants. our myanmar correspondent nick beake reports from the hague. many have given up on aung san suu kyi. not these loyal supporters. they told us they had travelled 5000 miles from myanmar to be with her today. she had come to tell the world there had been no rohingya genocide on her watch. our three quarters of a million rohingya lying, must itchy? do you have any sympathy for them ? could lying, must itchy? do you have any sympathy for them? could it be that the harrowing evidence that she had yesterday of me and my‘s army trying to eradicate the rohingya muslim people had ta ken to eradicate the rohingya muslim people had taken her, change the mind of someone once famous for her defence of human rights? no.

regrettably, they have placed before the court an incomplete and misleading factual picture of the situation in rakhine state in myanmar. aung san suu kyi claimed the rohingya exodus in 2017 was sparked by a tax i rohingya militants. she did admit that they myanmar army, which she doesn't control, had killed civilians in the security operation that followed. but the perpetrators would be brought tojustice. but the perpetrators would be brought to justice. can there be genocidal intent on the part of a state that actively investigates, prosecutes and punishes soldiers and officers who are accused of wrongdoing? this has been another remarkable day in the extraordinary life of aung san suu kyi. the nobel peace prize winner now defending the charge of genocide. for years, the western world champion her cause.

today she accused it of failing to understand what had been happening in her country. there was no regret, there was no apology. she said simply that there was no case to answer. she left the judges to consider her words. the international court of public opinion may have already made up its mind. nick beake, bbc news, the hague. the post office is to pay out almost £58 million to settle a long—running case brought by more than 500 postmasters. the postmasters said faults in the company's it system led to them being wrongly accused of fraud and false accounting. some even went to jail. the post office said it accepted it had got things wrong. the teenage activist greta thunberg has been named time magazine person of the year. it coincides with her appearance at the cop25 climate conference in madrid, where she accused world powers of making constant attempts to avoid making substantial changes.

ms greta thunberg. a global celebrity at the age of 16, greta thunberg was here to energise the talks. not with emotion, but still with a calm reminder to world leaders of the latest facts about rising temperatures and melting ice. how do you react to these numbers without feeling at least some level of panic? how do you respond to the fa ct of panic? how do you respond to the fact that basically, nothing is being done about this without feeling the slightest bit of anger? she was speaking as the negotiations seem she was speaking as the negotiations seem to be in slow motion, dragging on over technical details while the gases heating the planet are blasted into the air in ever greater quantities. with many countries accused of using loopholes to wriggle out of plans to cut their emissions. i still believe that the biggest danger is not in action. the real danger is when politicians and ceos are making it look like real

action is happening when in fact, almost nothing is being done apart from clever accounting and creative pr. there was applause for greta thunberg here in the great hall, but quite striking and actually, a lot of seats were pretty empty. not every national delegation was here to listen to her message. greta has inspired a movement that is losing patience. young protesters took over the horde to demand faster action. what matters is whether anyone is listening. david shukman, bbc news, in madrid. time for a look at the weather. here's matt taylor. polling day tomorrow, is it going to be good? one bit of certainty - there is going to be some rain. at least we had some sunshine between

the downpours today to. but look at the downpours today to. but look at the satellite imagery behind me. this area of cloud will bring longer spells of rain as we go through tomorrow daytime. ahead of it, you can see some clumps of shower clouds. then the cloud increases from the west later. that will live temperatures through the night in northern ireland, south—west wales and england. a frosty and i see stuck to tomorrow morning. the best of the dry weather will be of the country. notice how the more persistent rain will work northwards and eastwards into eastern parts of england and southern parts of england. a cold day in the north—east stop not so cold towards the south—west, but things will turn drier later. tomorrow evening is

wettest across eastern parts of england and south—east scotland. then it is a case of blustery showers to take us through the rest of thursday evening and into thursday night. by friday, we could see frost, but too much breeze elsewhere and you are back to a story of sunshine and showers. quite a bite to that wind as well. a pretty damp day in the highlands and orkney but elsewhere will see a bit of sunshine, with temperatures where they should be for the time of year. a very windy night in england and wales to take us into saturday. the strongest winds will be in the south. and it was they chilly through into sunday. that's all from the bbc news at six, so it's goodbye from me and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc‘s news teams where you are.
