earlier, the chief constable of greater manchester police ian hopkins gave an update on the investigations to be a very fast—moving investigation and there has been a significant amount of activity taking place throughout the night and this morning. i wanted to give you an update in relation to that the progress of the investigation. you will be aware that officers are responding to an incident in manchester will stop a suspicious package has now been deemed safe and the cordon has been removed. can i stress that this stage that the incident is not necessarily linked to the wide investigation but i hope that people will understand that we will always ta ke will understand that we will always take reports such as this seriously. in relation to the full investigation, we have eight people in custody in relation to monday's attack. a female that was arrested yesterday has been released without any charges. the rest have taken place in manchester, wigan and done eaton and we are carrying out searches in relation to those arrests at a number of addresses. these have been an intense three days

we were told this, though, by ian hopkins.as been clear from greater manchester police. there will be more arrests and the operation is ongoing. there seems to be a familiar pattern. if information comes light of interest to this investigation, greater manchester police are quickly running to those addresses carrying out raids, taking things away, asking questions. this is exactly what has happened here at whalley range at six o'clock this morning. police were here early. no arrests we re police were here early. no arrests were made, but we understand they did take items with them. officers are still standing guard. talking to neighbours, they understand that the family who live here are a libyan family, but no arrests have been made. we have had other raids in the last 12 hours so. we had a range in chester and insurer in sussex, both connected with this investigation. it feels as if that familiar pattern which became established on tuesday last week of arrests being made and raids, is rolling on words. the former blue peter

the progress of this is from the chief co nsta ble progress of this is from the chief constable ian hopkinsy much alive investigation. he says it is not slowing down. earlier, we heard from the home secretary amber rudd who used the phrase full tilt to describe the pace of the operation. she said there is a possibility that some of those who were involved in monday night's attacker may still be out there. saying that, police do say that they are making good progress. they say some of the arrests they have made as being significant and they say that during these searches are various different houses across greater manchester, they have discovered some items that we re they have discovered some items that were real important to the investigation. they have given us some details the givers a better picture of the scale of this operation. they say they are trawling their way through 13,000 hours of cctv footage, up until today. they have raided 18 addresses with forensics search is going on there. we wait for word about exactly how much significance that an unfolding situation in the moss side

and this morning, ian hopkins, the chief constable of greater manchester please did an interview with, why do they know more about the man who carried out the attack? the chief replied what we do know about salman abedi the terrorist, he was known to police for relatively matters like best and minor assault in 2012. he was not party to what the security services no foot he said many of his staff had to deal with some awful things on the night and were left traumatised by what they saw and had to deal with. it will take a very long time for this city to heal. our top story this lunchtime: jeremy corbyn launches labour's childcare policy, and is unable under repeated questioning to say how much it will cost. theresa may says, with brexit negotiations due to start, days after the election, only she is prepared. and still to come: tiger woods is caught driving under the influence — he says it's all due to prescription drugs. coming up in sport at half—past: gareth southgate says there was no need to speak to captain wayne rooney before leaving him out of the england squad to face scotland

but the chief constable of greater manchester police, ian hopkins, spoke before and urged people to phone whatever information they have got. and just give us a sense, you talked to some people there on the street who are wandering around in the early hours of the evening, hitting a sense of what it is like they're in manchester. what is the overriding sense of people? is it confusion, is it anger, is the bewilderment of what has happened? first of all, was the confusion. there was that disbelief, and now we arejust seeing there was that disbelief, and now we are just seeing people who want to go home. not everyone here is from manchester, people just want to get in taxis. they are phoning their pa rents, in taxis. they are phoning their parents, telling them to come and pick them up. we were told there was a hotel near here which had unaccompanied children here. we have seen two young children just walk down the street, being directed by somebody towards people at the end of the road. so peoplejust want somebody towards people at the end of the road. so people just want to get home, they

today the chief constable, ian hopkins, said he had taking soundings from both the bereaved familiesmbing and while most were in favour of this benefit going ahead on sunday, some felt that it was simply too soon because of course there are 50 people still in hospital and some of them are in a critical condition. now the security situation has been complicated by the fact that on sunday afternoon the fact that on sunday afternoon the former manchester united star, michael carrick, is due to have his testimonal up the road at old trafford football ground. it was announced this afternoon that that game has been brought forward by 90 minutes so that there will be more breathing space following the end of that match and the start of the ariana grande concert. people coming to both these events here on sunday should expect extremely stringent security measures. june, thank you very much. the time is 6.16pm. 0ur top story this evening. the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, has apologised after struggling to explain the cost of a key pledge on childcare that he was attempting to promote. still

well meanwhile the chief constable of greater manchester police, ian hopkins, has said that salman abedie man who carried out the suicide attack, had not been known to police for his extremist views. mr hopkins revealed that abedi had come to the police‘s attention only for minor criminality. 1a men are still being questioned in connection with the atrocity. dave guest reports. "11; —— 1a people "14 people are still being questioned. for people in this part of wigan this is nothing new, feverish police activity coupled with instructions to leave their homes. the police have said move so obviously it's for our own safety, so we have been to are son's. it's very worrying, you don't feel safe in your own home. the police have been searching this house for several days. last week they found something that caused concern and the bomb squad was called. it turned out to be nothing. but, the same happened again today. so, they'd have the all clear now and live returning to normal, but this is just won so many parts of greater manchester that have witnessed this kind of police activity over the p

later today i will travel to manchester to meet the chief constable of greater manchester police, ian hopkinsand members of the emergency services who have come to manchester's aid in its moment of need. and, as i announced last night, the general election campaign has been suspended. i will chair another meeting of cobra later today. at terrible moments like these, it is customary for leaders, politicians and others to condemn the perpetrators and declare that the terrorists will not win, but the fact that we have been here before and the fact that we need to say this again does not make it any less true. for while so often we experienced the worst of humanity in manchester last night, we also saw the best. the cowardice of the attacker met the bravery of the emergency services and the people of manchester. the attempt to divide us met countless acts of kindness that brought people closer together. and in the days ahead, those must be the things we remember. the images we hold in our minds should not be those of senseless slaughter, but of the ordinary men and women who put concerns about th
