the stage is set in cambridge.the previews on that, and all of the build—up to the debate. and the debate itself is underway at half past seven. cambridge university there on a glorious evening, ready for what should be a very interesting debate. the prime minister will not be there, but the labour party leader will be. and representatives of six other political parties. the latest debate in this 2017 general election, just a few days to go until polling day, just over a week until the actual poll, a lot of opinion polls coming out, sharing a narrowing of the gap between the conservatives and the labour party. it could be a hung parliament, as polls suggest today. but we will keep our eyes on that debate tonight. full coverage is live here on bbc news. and, before all of that, a look at the weather with jay all of that, a look at the weather with jay wynne. all of that, a look at the weather with jay wynne. good all of that, a look at the weather with jay wynne. good evening. all of that, a look at the weather with

one of the biggest election debates of this campaign taken place in cambridge, with politicians clashing over brexit, immigration, security and austerity. amber rudd seems so confident that this is a country at ease with itself. have you been to a food bank? have you seen people sleeping around our stations? ijust have to take on some of jeremy corbyn's fantasy economics. i mean, he has this money tree wish list in his manifesto. meanwhile, the prime minister, campaigning in the west country today, defended her decision not to be in cambridge for tonight's debate. i think debates where the politicians are squabbling among themselves doesn't do anything for the process of electioneering. i think actually it is about getting out and about, meeting voters and hearing directly from voters. and in other news... jailed for 15 years — the breast surgeon who carried out a series of unnecessary operations at hospitals in the west midlands. and coming up on newsnight — fresh from the election debate spin room, brexit secretary david davis and shadow foreign secretary emily thornberry. and fashion

what do you think the stereotypical image of a cambridge undergraduate is?he archetypal image of a cambridge student is typically someone who is maybe caucasian and certainly doesn't come from backgrounds like us. so it is important that we challenge stereotypes because perception is quite key nowadays. what is your background? if you don't mind me asking. i grew up in east london, to be specific my parents were from nigeria. that is about it, really. what has your experience been like at cambridge? my experience has been quite interesting. in terms of this issue specifically i feel that there are a lot of different things being done, so we have the likes of the acs, we have the fly network, the race equality charter. these are trying to balance out the under representations of people like myself. my experience has been interesting so far. in terms of getting the message out, this photo has been shared i do not know how many times, so it is working. yes. yes, it is. it is really important to try to get it to everyone, so everyone who has the potential to get

finally, the fa ct of cambridge this evening.fact of the matter is that the liberal democrats, the surge that a lot of people were hoping forward in the party, particularly after the brexit vote, and the promise within your manifesto of a second referendum on any deal, has that really got any traction? hasn't really got any traction? hasn't really sunk in? we are in absolutely no doubt that the surge is happening in our strongest seats. it echoes the by—election victories that we have had over the past 18 months, and it is going really well but i would agree that there has not been a surge across the country. however, i think people will be pleasantly surprised by the number of seats we win ina surprised by the number of seats we win in a week. it is good to see you and thank you very much indeed. it has been a lively debate and one hot button issue throughout the campaign tonight has certainly been immigration. let's hear part of that exchange. ukip hasjust claimed that people voted to leave the european union and in so doing th

the folks at cambridge health alliance told me that before the a.c.a. that if one out of three people walking through their doors has health insurance. today, after hard work in massachusetts to pass bipartisan health reform and to implement the a.c.a., more than 90% of the people in our state have health care. more than nine out of ten people coming into cambridge health alliance clinickings now have coverage. and because of that coverage, c.h.a. can offer a wide range of services including treatment for opioids. they are making headway, more lives saved, more success stories, more healthy babies. i'm not going to tell the seniors and the mammas and the people on the front lines that they have to give up those gains to pay for tax cuts for the richest. if republicans want to defend this unforgivable health care bill, then they can start by coming out from about behind closed doors where they are conducting secret negotiations on health care. they can look the american people in the eye and admit they care more about the healthy few in this country than
