diane abbott says she mis—spoke and got herfigures right in other interviews.

just how strong is your faith and trust in your shadow home secretary, diane abbott? ll support. she clearly does and it is £300 million, not £80 million. diane abbott brushed off the mix—up, or tried to. i do know my figures and as you well know, i did seven interviews that morning and that was the seventh and i mis—spoke but i do know my figures. that settled that, or did it? trust is a problem for some of the voters in this part of southampton, in one of the tiny handful of seats labour holds in the south—east. i believe that the tories run the country like a business, whereas labour seems to borrow a lot of money and just relies on other people to pay it back later in life. you don't think much of her? what about jeremy corbyn? corbyn isn't really my politician, although at least i've got a bit of respect for the fact that he is more of a labour man than perhaps they have had in the past. so, but... sincere and honest, anyway, he's got convictions. yes, yes, although i don't have a lot of faith in him as a politician. are you willing to give labour a chance this ti

i am doing a diane abbott! i knew! statins... i am doing a diane abbott!would do this. 300,000? don't you mean 300 million? statins? ! they are actually saying that patience, if they know they are taking statins and are told about the side—effects, they will start feeling them, like restless muscles and poor sleep. if they are not told and poor sleep. if they are not told and they don't know they are taking statins, they don't feel them. so it is psychological? yes, psychosomatic effect. some of the professionals are saying when you take medicines there is a huge list of side effects because the manufacturers are trying to protect themselves, so they are saying, don't list the side—effects because in themselves they worry that people, the patients into experiencing them. the fact is, ned, this suggestion seems to be that there may be issues on the side, but it is worth taking them despite that. gasbag, and it is weird. we're used to package is having more warning. you think about cigarettes and alcohol, all the warnings. now they are saying, no warnings. a

but diane abbott's number trouble had already been pounced on.tried to play down her morning performance. i do know my figures. as you will know, i did seven interviews that morning and that was the 7th that i misspoke. but i do know my figures. the conservatives in coalition cut funding for police forces and the number of officers is down almost 20,000 since 2010. budget were then protected in 2015 in real terms, although not all forces felt the reprieve. at the same time, crime has generally fallen although violent offences are thought to be up. the truth is we have reduced the number of policemen on the street from 2010. because the police have been spending that money wisely, and because we have worked with them on reform, there's been a reduction in crime of nearly a third since 2010. we believe you can protect funding and also reduce crime. this is not the first time that a politician has floundered when grilled about the detail of a proposal and it certainly won't be the last. but labour has been putting policy at the centre of its electio

privately, diane abbott is telling friends it was a car crash into privately, diane abbott is tellingcrash interview. 0ne friend said it is a bit like a moment when you wake up and you think, was it really that bad? and the answer is yes, it was. these accidents happen and it is not the first time nick ferrari has put someone in that situation, natalie bennett in the last election of the green party. what does it tell us? the danger is this. it makes labour looks dysfunctional and it plays into the conservative narrative that you have certainty with them and chaos under a future labour government. interestingly it shows there are poor relations between two of the leading members of the shadow cabinet who are old comrades on the left, which is diane abbott who was supposed to introduce the 10,000 officers, and john macdonald the shadow chancellor who is meant to pay for them. i understand diane abbott until 2am this morning was poring over a labour document on this because she feared the weak spot for her in the interview is labour had indicated the policy areas that would be paid forf

a pretty bad day for diane abbott. now, this is a key issue in the campaign, on the crime and justice. what has happened is this: in 2010, we got to an all—time high in police the bus, about 140,000 officers. in 2011, under the coalition, that fell away as budgets were cut, and as of about september of last year, the number was about 122,000, a little odd that make about that. police numbers have come down by almost 20,000, about 19,000 to be exact. she is broadly correct in what she is saying. the issue is, though, this is also part ofa issue is, though, this is also part of a bigger train put—mac trend, which is that police numbers have been rising consistently since 1980. the trend has always been going up and it is only recently it has come down. that decline since 2010 has been quite significant, about 13%. so, the numbers, in terms of how much it is actually going to put these 10,000 officers on the beat? this is the complicated bit and where diane abbott came unstuck this morning, where she said she misspoken. w

diane abbott says she "misspoke" in an interview with lbc, when she appeared to be confused over the police officers cost? we believe it will be about £300,000. £300,000? sorry... 10,000 police officers? what are you paying them? no, i mean... an inquest has found there was no adequate care in place for an anorexic teenager who killed herself five days after being released from a psychiatric hospital. pippa mcmanus — who was fifteen — stepped in front of a train in december 2015. the hearing at stockport coroner's court heard the lack of support available to her family contributed to her death. this is bbc news. the latest headlines: ten years since madeleine mccann disappeared on holiday in portugal, one of the men questioned by scotland yard has been speaking for the first time. paulo ribeiro is no longer a suspect but was questioned at the time. britain's parliament has been formally dissolved, paving the way for next month's general election. prime minister theresa may will visit buckingham palace later for an audience with the queen to herald the start of the campaign. there's b

diane abbott suggested a range of figures which varied by tens of millions of pounds. said she mis—spoke about labour's new policy and had got it correct in other interviews. the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, insisted he wasn't embarrassed by her difficulties with the numbers. here's our deputy political editor, john pienaar. there, over the road, you know him, the labour leader, promising to make the labour leader, promising to make the streets safer, 10,000 more police on the beat, catching criminals and paid for by the better off, using capital gains tax the tories plan to cut. what we are putting forward is a proposal to increase police numbers, we are putting 10,000 more police officers out there because it is a question of community policing and community involvement. there are many causes for crime, and they have to all be addressed, it is a collective approach. but labour has been hounded by tricky questions — could they afford it? the parties ingested same money could go on schools or welfare, just examples, they say now, and what about the money? how much were

maybe 400 years, according to diane abbott. applause .ofound. this campaign has confirmed what we all suspected. labour, under jeremy corbyn, simply cannot add up. diane abbott is the personjeremy corbyn, simply cannot add up. diane abbott is the person jeremy corbyn wants to put in charge of our borders, policing and security in just 27 days. last week she went on the radio and at one stage, suggested you can employ a police officer for £30 a year. yesterday, labour's leaked election manifesto revealed a multi—billion pound, ideological wish list of undeliverable promises with a budget black hole, some have estimated to be at least £30 billion. they laughably claim all of their ideas are laughably claim all of their ideas a re fully laughably claim all of their ideas are fully funded, but what we have heard is a chaotic wish list of spending promises alongside billions of pounds of tax rises. it is not an economic plan, it is an economic shambles. barely a day goes by in this campaign without them saying they will raise corporation tax t

diane abbott said she missed spokein policy. appeared to be confused about the extra policing cost. how much would 10,000 police officers cost? we believe it will be about £300,000. £300,000? for 10,000 police officers?! you can find out more on the numbers of police in england and wales and crime figures as part of oui’ wales and crime figures as part of our reality check online. all you need to do is go to bbc .co .uk slash years. nick clegg has said that ordinary people will pay the price of a high brexit. in a campaign speech, he accused theresa may of seeking to pull the wool over the eyes of voters and urged people to vote for a real opposition, the liberal democrats. in scotland, nicola sturgeon has urged young people to back the snp, aiming that younger generations are being let down by the conservative government. she claimed that by the time they reach their early 30s, the wealth accumulated by young people born in the 1980s will be half that of those born in the 1970s. and the green party say they will offer voters th

the shadow home secretary, diane abbott is denying her credibility is in question, after repeatedly getting her sums wrong in relation to a key labour election policy. in a radio interview this morning, she said plans to put an extra 10,000 police officers on the streets would cost 300 thousand pounds — rather than 300 million. she later said she had ‘misspoken‘ and did know herfigures. our home affairs correspondent dominic casciani is here with a reality check on labour's figures. what do we know, dominic? a pretty bad day for diane abbott, she struggled with this today but the key claim that she was making is that we have lost 20,000 police officers since 2010. this is a key issue in the campaign, the crime and justice side. what happened with numbers, in 2010 we got to an all—time high in police numbers, 144,000 officers. in 2011 under the coalition government it began to fall away as police budgets were cut and as of september last year the number was about 122,000 or just above. so the verdict is police numbers have indeed come down by almost 20,000. so broadly she's correct in what s

we will talk about diane abbott later. those statistics are doing. crime has fallen by a third since 2010. there has been control over budgets and less police officers we have invested in the police force in areas we believe they can make progress with other elements of crime. the point is that what really matters is the outcome. crime has fallen while budgets have been controlled. that is a good outcome, surely. thank you. we will speak diane abbott and clegg soon. surely. thank you. we will speak diane abbott and clegg soonm surely. thank you. we will speak diane abbott and clegg soon. in half an hour. the weather. good morning. good morning. a cold start for many of us. frost around. lovely sunrises, as you can see here in east sussex. not like this everywhere. a lot of cloud in the uk. durham, a cloudy start. as the breeze picks up, more cloud coming in. starting off in some eastern parts with cloud. further west, clearer skies. clearer skies by night in london where the temperatures have dipped, of course. the afterno

also, a couple of weeks back, you had diane abbott in that radio interview...sing listening to that, you know. you all said yes! she got her figures so wrong. did you just think somebody has had a bad day? there is no concrete foundation to what they are saying. they are coming in with these wonderful ideas, hooks to get people engaged, but in actual fact they have not thought it through. i looked today and they are talking about tuition fees. how on earth are they going to pay for this? more students than ever wanting people to go to university. blair in 1997 wanted 50% of students to go to university. way too many, that people are going. how are they going to afford this? where is it going to come out from? i want to start the wider conversation a bit byjust asking a little bit about you. if you had to describe how you were, how you were doing in your family, does it feel like it's pretty easy at the moment? things are good, we are in work, things are comfortable, you are shaking your head? struggling. every single month, you are constantly thinking can i aff

jeremy corbyn a failure of memory, a bit like diane abbott earlier in the campaign? it is not great, you would have thought he would have had a briefing before going to interview on the date that you're launching a manifesto policy, you're launching a manifesto policy, you should know your numbers. you cannotjudge a policy on whether or not the leaders remember the numbers and that is true. but for a party co nsta ntly and that is true. but for a party constantly being told it is not good on the economy, you cannot trust labour on the economy, not great for them. hejust needed labour on the economy, not great for them. he just needed to log that ipad! it is excruciating to listen to and watch. i would point out at least they have costings to forget unlike the conservative party. they do not have any costings so easy for theresa may. but the key thing is labour are going and facing a hostile press and they need to do double the work of the conservatives. they do have briefings and it is not the end of the world. he did not fall off the stage. i've seen worse than that

that was diane abbott speaking on the daily politics show on bbc two.arning signals to south korea, he says he would be honoured to speak face—to—face to the north korean leader. it's unpopular with south korea's neighbours and within the country itself, but there is another layer of defence in a time of rising tension. the system is at its first stage of operation. that, coupled with american b—1 bombers flying in drills over the peninsular, it's obvious a messages being sent to the north. will respond to the threat of your nuclear missile programme. korea's response was quick and clear, this minister describing the moves as confrontation. there are worries the north may commit its sixth nuclear test and donald trump is worried about a conflict. president trump has said he would meet the north korean leader under the right circumstances. he won't though go into the details of his strategy. you do what you have to do in you don't talk about it. well, exactly when would you go in, and what time? imean, when would you go in, and what time? i mean, it's ri

pretty bad day for diane abbott. she has a real struggle today with.as making was that we have lost 20,000 police officers since 2010. now in 2010 we got to an all—time high in police numbers, about 144,000 officers. in 2011, under the coalition government, that began to fall away, as police budgets were cut. police numbers have come down by almost 20,000. it's about 19,000 to be exact. the bigger trend is that police numbers have been rising consistently over the long—term. since about 1980, the trend has a lwa ys since about 1980, the trend has always been going up. that decline since 2010, has been quite significant. that's about 13%. this is outside source, live from the bbc newsroom. our top story: president putin has dismissed allegations of russian meddling in the us election. he was speaking at a meeting with the german chancellor. let's look at some of the stories that they're working on around the bbc. the turkish president has threatened to end efforts to join the european union unless the block rein—i having rates turkey's union unless the

coming up: diane abbott got her maths in a muddle but did bbc news get their sums wrong too and makecase, but is the bbc obsessed with it? brexit was always going to loom large over this election campaign and this week, it took centre stage. the war of words started on monday. theresa may describes the reports of a fractious dinner with her and urban the european union president as brussels gossip. she was reporting to use the kinds of sharp disagreements withjuncker over how quickly a deal could be done. maxine edmonds was one of the number of viewers are surprised at the prominence being given to a second—hand anonymous briefing in german. writing: rob cattle agreed: but was this just gossip? on tuesday, the bbc‘s political editor laura kuenssberg try to nail that down with the prime minister on a campaign trip to cornwall. did juncker say brexit cannot be the success? i don't recall the account that is being given of the meeting that took place. i think a lot of this is brussels gossip. he said it to you or he did not. the account that i have seen, a lot of that is brussels gossip

we had diane abbott with two pranks, she‘s probably right about this stage and jeremy corbyn has thisa barnett he asks him the price, the cost of his childcare policy which is about £5 billion, even i need that. he was bearing and the pauses were excruciating. he has apologised but he should know the sort of stuff, it is a minor detail in yet again it calls into question whether he is a competent enough and b has the financial knowledge to deliver. labour supporters have reacted on twitter and elsewhere saying at least the proposals the party has costed and saying the tory proposal and costed. which is a fair point. the conservatives had no numbers in their manifesto tall and labour had this detailed list of how it will be paid for but it does you no good unless you remember the numbers when it comes to the natural follow—up where people ask about individual policies. it's pretty sad really because he did pretty well la st really because he did pretty well last night on the debate, he came across competence , last night on the debate, he came across competence, knowing his staff, you

i am doing a diane abbott! i knew!

the shadow home secretary, diane abbott, says she "misspoke" when she got the cost of labour's latestse as she listened back to that interview on radio. how much would 10,000 police officers cost? if we recruit the 10,000 policemen and women over a four—year period we believe it would be about £300,000. £300,000? what are you paying them? sorry, no... how much will it cost? they will cost... it will cost... about... about £80 million. about £80 million? diane abbott, that is hugely embarrassing, notjust miss speaking to quote you a bit earlier, you just do not know your figures and you're not on top of your brief. ifi and you're not on top of your brief. if i did not know my figures why was i able to do six other interviews and give the figure correctly? you need to ask why the conservative party is so anxious to move the debate away from the 20,000 police officers. we will come onto that in a moment but back to that interview, never mind that you did six other interviews this is now an election campaign, frontbenchers and government ministers are expected to do reams of interviews. t

diane abbott, welcome to the program.are expecting jeremy corbyn to give a speech saying the war on terror isn't working. he lays some of the blame on u.k. foreign policy. do you think that will resonate with the electorate? ms. abbott: this speech is how we make the british people safer. he's making the point that under theresa may we lost 20,000 police officers and a number of border guards but he's also saying, and i think -- particularly the war in iraq did not make the international environment safer, and the intervention in libya has caused , withto be a failed state implications for the refugee crisis and terrorism. francine: he's also as far as i understand arguing that you need to fight terrorism but not fuel it. is there anything else in the u.k. foreign policy you can blame for the recent attacks? ms. abbott: it is not about laying blame. it is about trying to understand. i was in parliament. people want that the destabilization would provide chaos and also could fuel terrorism, and very sadly the warnings have

it was almost the diane abbott moment.ms to be on a par, may be more so. seems to be on a par, may be more so. this is a key labour pledge. it's what he is launching today and he was clearly struggling badly at the numbers. i can tell him the number if he wants it its £4] billion set out in the party's ma nifesto, billion set out in the party's manifesto, but it raises questions about how thorough, diligent and credible labour's plans are. the is s have said the sons do not add up. they say they've underestimated the spending commitments. and when you get the leaders struggling to grasp how a get the leaders struggling to grasp howa —— get the leaders struggling to grasp how a —— how much a call policy is going to cost then it is awkward. you are at the launch of the snp ma nifesto you are at the launch of the snp manifesto what are they offering? they are offering an anti—austerity message. they want to set out policies that will improve living standards. what is interesting is a move away from what is there traditional b

coming so soon after diane abbott's interview on lbc a couple of weeks ago when she also wondered on she was promoting that morning. that is the key point. this is a policy that jeremy corbyn wanted to talk about, about extending universal childcare for all children aged two to four. defending the fact this would cost millions of pounds. and then not to be across the figures on a key interview is really rather embarrassing and plays into the hands of the conservatives because their key campaign attack line on jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyn cannot be trusted. do not take the risk with jeremy corbyn over brexit negotiations, he is not up over brexit negotiations, he is not up to the job. we have over brexit negotiations, he is not up to thejob. we have been over brexit negotiations, he is not up to the job. we have been saying that after the interview. slip—up like this at a time like this is highly embarrassing. the overwhelming feeling was that last night he did 0k the overwhelming feeling was that last
