by a candidate who doesn't believe injeremy corbyn?labour party. there are lessons to learn both from the poor results in parts of the country, but also from some of the good results in part of the country. now, we've got a job to do in the next five weeks and i'm fully focused on the other hand making sure that we get that labour message across — that we want to build a britain for the many, not the few, and i'm confident that my colleagues, in the labour party, will be doing their bit to make sure that we return as many labour mps and, hopefully, on the 8th june, a labour government. andrew gwynne, thank you. thank you. the noisy boy band that is ukip fielded 146 councillors for re—election today. they ended the day with just one. so are they suffering second album syndrome? is there anything left for them to do now? david.gmssman has been looking at them. all of them faded away when their principal aims had been secured. indeed, it is hard to read last nights results in any other way, just months after the party secured its single—m

you have to put your faith in jeremy corbyn is incredibly high so you have to put your faith injeremy corbyn around the ship of state and change the direction and to ensure that the changes that the implement help contribute to a more successful the economic economy. you have to put a lot more trust in politicians promising to do that than politicians promising to do slightly more incremental visions that doesn't involve borrowing on this scale and spending on this scale and renationalisation of this scale. talking about promises this is a big week for the main parties with a positive plethora of manifesto is being launched. but do voters the politicians will stick to their promises, if elected? ellie price has been in edinburgh south, a constituency that'll see a right old ding dong, come election day. # i need a little time to think it over... never trust them. they never do. anyone in particular or all of them? they all make promises they don't keep eventually. do you trust the political parties to stick to their manifestos? well, if it's a straight yes or no, i think the answer probably

plans in just a £58 billion black hole injeremy corbyn's plans injust one year alone.o not add up. any shred of economic credibility, which labour had left, has now been buried byjeremy corbyn and his acolytes. and this matters to families across the united kingdom. the economic chaos, which would hit our country if labour were ina would hit our country if labour were in a position to implement the shambolic package of policies they unveiled yesterday, would leave every household in britain counting the cost. the price of labour's chaos would be felt in higher taxes and steeper mortgage bills for working families. this economic chaos would mean higher unemployment, robbing families of the peace of mind and security, which comes with a job. it would mean more borrowing, throwing away all the hard earned progress of the la st all the hard earned progress of the last seven years, and take us right back to square one with a growing deficit, growing debt, and increasing financial uncertainty for the next generation. labour's manifesto is a plan for an ideological fuel, whic

i believe injeremy corbyn i am sticking with labour. all of the welsh labour ministers, counsellors, they are doing a greatjob. welsh labour ministers, counsellors, they are doing a great job. the labour party is in disarray and they cannot organise themselves. you feel safer with a tory party and not with labour? yeah. the plaid cymru candidate seems like he would do good for the area. i think the labour party councillor is making a mess of everything in cardiff. the situation is cardiff is interesting. cardiff is the largest council and they were under a three pronged attack, labour, from the left plaid cymru, from the north of the lib dems and then the conservatives. plaid cymru say they didn't have the night they wanted. in the north of the tories are doing well. it will be interesting to see when the result comes in who takes it. it would appear labour might lose a majority, which would be significant for the other parties across wales. thank you. just to point out, many results still to come this morning. we will be speaking to pol

lead has been called into question in the polls are reflecting there is a lack of confidence injeremy corbyn turning up in leeds or wherever he goes. that shows underneath the surface, a rumbling that people want change. they want someone that people want change. they want someone who is, to be frank, a man of the people. that is exactly what he is. did that change doesn't happen, does he have to step down? the conservatives win. we will win this election. that‘s a hypothetical question which doesn‘t deserve looking at. this manifesto on the details that we will publish today, we have already seen as a result of lea ks, we have already seen as a result of leaks, extremely we have already seen as a result of lea ks, extremely popular, we have already seen as a result of leaks, extremely popular, bringing rail back into public ownership, properly funding the nhs, making sure we have a fair taxation system. all of those are extremely popular among the general public and that will be translated into votes on the day of the election. we appreciate your time this morning. we look forward to an ans

there is a big gap between that and then saying you put your trust injeremy between that and then saying you put your trust in jeremy corbyn on woman's hour when he was asked about figures and he wasn't easily able to come up with that number. do you think it has an impact? the problem with the labour campaign. it's not to say the tories haven't had a rough campaign as well, but labour, the figures are hard to believe and they can't remember them. if they were difficult to accept, but you had people like jeremy corbyn, diane abbott going out every day making a strong case for why their figures added up at a time everyone knows, whatever their politics, everyone knows money is short and it has to be carefully accounted for. you might have had a bit more faith. butjeremy corbyn was bit more faith. butjeremy corbyn was struggling to remember that major pledge and the figures on it, was major pledge and the figures on it, was not a particularly good moment. i think the attempt was to upset him by coming across as someone who hasn't changed very much. has kindly cited his nature, which i have also seenin cited his nature, which
