rachel, the point about jeremy corbyn, he faced quite jeremy corbynrhe faced qertee because jeremy corbynrhecorbynrhe faced daitea zitegjecause he - seemed you support the era? paxman seemed history a great to dig into his history a great deal. -- the ira. they both faced tough questioning. corbyn about the thing people have been trying to get to stick to him for the last month has not worked about the ira. i disagree. i think this was probably a winfor disagree. i think this was probably a win for corbyn in the sense that theresa may, let's remember we're not having debates because she didn't want them. she didn't want to be exposed to a live debate with jeremy corbyn. the more we see of leremy corbyn. themeceweaseeji the more we seize. corbyn, i is public. withjeremy corbyn, it is the opposite. he thrives in this environment. he is very natural and engaged when he has a chance to be with the public. the more exposure she has, the worse she will do and the more it will appear like her leadership is premised on a very thin veneer. with corbyn, the opposite is true for stop the more people se

jeremy, jeremy, i know there this no extra payment you don't want to add to.n't want to rise. but the fact is we have to concentrate our resources on the people who need it most, and we have to stop thinking, as you do, that there is a magic money tree. you have to be accountable. i'd like to bring in some of the other parties... it has already a personal confrontation. the labour leader counterattacking on poverty. i would just say this — since amber rudd seem so confident that this is a country at ease with itself, have you have you been to a food bank? have you seen people sleeping around our stations? applause have you seen the level... jeremy... have you seen the level... i'd like to answer your attack. because of your government's conscious... of course, i have been to food banks. for amber to say that this is a government that actually cares for those most vulnerable i think is downright insulting to the people of my constituency surgery. in this seven—sided debate, brexit was inevitably a big issue tonight. passion and heat from all sides. we have to g

labour, under jeremy corbyn, simply cannot add up.annot 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 to pay for their promises. but in reality they have already spent this tax rise 12 separate ways. some are reporting their plans will cost each and every family

they got the brexit referendum result wrong and jeremy corbyn was a 200 outsider and jeremy corbyn wasne has ever relied on the polls. but it brings home the reality that the conservatives lose 60 and the coalition chaos you will see tonight by the people who will be leading brexit negotiations withjeremy corbyn at the helm. the room is filling up with journalists and pundits. they will put their own gloss on the debate which begins in just ten minutes. we will have a chat with some of our other guests. with me is the lib dem's brian paddick. how important is it tonight for the liberal democrats? many people will not have seen tim farron before and they're going to see a genuine guy who is passionate about these issues, because he is not from a privileged background. he is going to stand up to the dementia tax from the conservatives, to the cuts in school budgets and the nhs. the fact is you're starting from a very low base, you have a handful of mps and do you believe that you can turn this situation around ? do you believe that you can turn this situation around? the polls are all ov

iagree with theresa may but i will vote for jeremy corbyn. i like the way the jeremy corbyn.ike the way the jeremy corbyn. i like the way the jeremy corbyn said that the reason we have these problems is because we have messed around in other people's countries. instead of giving these people bread and security and been nice to these people, we have blown up nice to these people, we have blown up their children. labour or the conservatives? she is certain. lytto n conservatives? she is certain. lytton has voted for the labour party since 1997 and it looks like they trust the labour party more than the conservatives on the issue of national security. do you think that picture is reflected nationally? you would get a different result in different parts of the country. this is something that the conservatives have honed in on because they think it isjeremy corbyn‘s weak spot. well to reason me is weak on domestic issue, jeremy corbyn is weak on security. trident came up time and time again, we know he does not support renewing it but it is in the labour party manifesto because he

jeremy corbyn in action. explain what was going on here. sky news, the two leaders facing questions from the public and then from jeremy paxman. jeremy corbyn first and then theresa may with 15 minutes of the audience in 15 minutes ofjeremy paxman, each being questioned about all sorts of issues. the guardian here, although this has onlyjust finished and this is an early version of the story, it isjust leading onjeremy version of the story, it isjust leading on jeremy corbyn's performance which most people what was quite good. he was tackled on some of the positions he had had before, like abolishing the monarchy, his call for an end to activities in the falklands, and his previous connections and support allegedly of the ira and sinn fein. he came across reasonably well and the guardian certainly... it is interesting because this is a verbatim response of the question and answers. there is no editorial assessment. there is not much spin at the moment. you paid quite a lot of attention to the debate. i mustn't call it a debate. it was a cou

corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyne 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 night he did ok with the overwhelming feeling was that last night he did 0k withjeremy paxman? absolutely. i think the labour camp was pretty pleased with how the interview with jeremy paxman went. this morning, jeremy corbyn was at a nursery, speaking of how proud he was about spending this money and giving costings. and then within half an hour to stumble in an interview, we heard from barry god this afternoon who said this is a rapid fire of an election campaign and politicians are under the spotlight. it is not that the policy was not costed, it

jeremy corbyn will be taking pa rt mind. jeremy corbyn will be taking part in that debate.him. it is highly unlikely, our political editor has said. let's catch up with the weather. thank you. for most of us, a good day on the weather front. lots of sunshine, particularly apart —— in northern parts of the uk. temperatures will be rising across southern and eastern areas of the country. it is a little on the cloudy and outside, particularly across the valleys of wales. further south, we had a fair bit of cloudless morning. that is breaking up cloudless morning. that is breaking up now, but we could catch one or two showers up now, but we could catch one or two s howe rs a cross up now, but we could catch one or two showers across the southern portions of the uk. lots of sunshine for the rest of the afternoon across northern england and eastern scotland. still showers in one or two spots, but over all, a dry night for most of us. misty and murky, particularly across western and southern areas. you can't miss this weather front approaching across northern ireland and western s

although it was a u-turn for jeremy corbyn. u-turn. although it was a u-turn for jeremy corbyn., which never mentioned. he said he wouldn't take pa rt if mentioned. he said he wouldn't take part if she didn't, but then he did. the guardian had got the same debate story, jeremy corbyn confronting amber rudd over cuts, in a fractious debate, but that is what you would expect with the seven politicians arguing over 90 minutes. actually, jeremy corbyn did not confront amber rudd enough, he started off, saying, have you been to a food bank, and i thought he was going to act like this is a choice between him, the leader of the labour party who has turned up, and the underling who has been sent in, and what he should have done, he should have ended with, but we don't know what theresa may thinks because she is not here to debate it, and he should have kept on persisting with that. he should have done that every time and thatis should have done that every time and that is what people should have taken away from the debate, that theresa may did not want the debate, andi theresa may did n

yes, jeremy corbyn turned up.the belief, perhaps, from those within the labour party, is that that put theresa may on the back foot. i just that put theresa may on the back foot. ijust don't understand why she was not here. what is she afraid of? i have to say, i think to myself, if she cannot get out and debate, how the hell can she be saying to the british public that she can negotiate? why is she such a coward? that is a ridiculous thing to say. no, it's not ridiculous. she is talking to real people and she has a lot of respect. she has been here more often thanjeremy corbyn. what is she doing tonight? she has beenin what is she doing tonight? she has been in the west country. she has done twice as many meetings, taken more questions from the public and from journalists than jeremy more questions from the public and from journalists thanjeremy corbyn ever from journalists thanjeremy corbyn ever did. he makes a speech to a momentum rally and goes away. she is engaging with real people. we did see the choices eve

what to say, because jeremy corbyn keeps coming up because jeremy corbyn keeps coming up on the doorstep on the doorstep. voters concerned aboutjeremy corbyn. he says don't talk about jeremy. total but leadership. talk about the manifesto. it shows there is that concern amongst labour voters, and labour hq. the core members of team corbin, acknowledging jeremy is a drag on the polling numbers. people already speculating if it is a bad defeat for labour, what happens to jeremy corbyn? no doubt, the further away from london you get, you hear of lifelong labour voters saying i‘m fine with the policies, the problem isa fine with the policies, the problem is a leader. they are advised to talk about the policy is not the leadership. a significant quote, if there was a labour government, it would be collective leadership. they are acknowledging jeremy corbyn is a problem. looks like the conservatives will win, labour will move, then it will move to what happens to jeremy corbyn. move, then it will move to what happens tojeremy corbyn. they comment on some of the papers saying he should go immed

theresa may, and jeremy corbyn, they are a brand. and jeremy corbyn, they are a brand. brand. and jeremy corbyn, it is not that he's not getting his message across but he's getting it across well and truly. thank you for us. the sun columnist, and former editor, kelvin mackenzie is leaving the paper — because of controversial remarks he made about the everton footballer, ross barkley. kelvin mackenzie was suspended last month after comparing the player to a gorilla. our media editor, amol rajan, reports. kelvin mackenzie is a giant of british tabloids. a brash and brutal editor editor who was a close confidant of his patron, rupert murdoch. but this time he went too far. a column about everton footballer ross barkley, whose grandfather is nigerian, compared him to a gorilla. mackenzie claimed not to know about the heritage but his column, published on the anniversary of the hillsborough disaster that he so notoriously misrepresented, prompted everton to ban the sun from its stadium. newspaper columnists are meant to provoke strong feelings and over nearly five decades i

jeremy cook, bbc news.death of a zookeeper in cambridge yesterday after she was attacked by a tiger. rosa king had worked at hamerton zoo for 1h years. in a tribute, her mother said she loved herjob and wouldn't have done anything else. ben ando reports. we do a lot of work for conservation, a lot of breeding to try and save... conservation and compassion, words rosa king lived by. today, flowers were laid at hamerton zoo by friends and visitors who were struggling to come to terms with her death. she was the most caring, compassionate woman you could ever meet and she's going to be sorely missed by everyone who knew her. ijust can't believe she's gone. in a statement her mother andrea said... rosa had an infinity for big cats, she was inside the tiger enclosure when the unthinkable happened. in what the zoo is calling a "freak accident", one of the deadly predators got in and mauled her to death. 0ne visitor told the bbc it was the animals that raised the alarm. just basically the cheetahs were pacing up a

jeremy corbyn is not.g about. but actually this is very serious. we are approaching the end of a long campaign but it is crucial everybody remembers this important fact. britain is about to enter into the most important negotiations of my lifetime. they begin just 11 most important negotiations of my lifetime. they beginjust 11 days after polling day. and the european union is already adopting an aggressive negotiating position. that is why now more than ever britain needs a strong government and a strong prime minister capable of standing up to brussels. your vote is more important than ever. because every vote for me in this election will, if i am returned as prime minister, strengthen my hand in the negotiations that are about to start. but if you don‘t vote at this election, and if you don‘t vote for me in this election, you risk sleepwalking into the very real danger thatjeremy sleepwalking into the very real danger that jeremy corbyn will find himself in the hot seat in the negotiating chair on your

jeremy bash, national political report of the at axios, jeremy swan. and matthew nussbaum white house reporter to politico. jeremy, i want to start with you. i want to put up something from the ap. it's important to note, following the post reporting. ap is reporting that yates' warnings about flynn in january capped weeks of building concerns among top obama officials and that the president himself that month told friends that the fbi seemed to be focussed on flynn. i want to know if you think there is anyone inside trumps orbit that's trying to get ahead of what's going on on monday. >> i take greg at his word that that's not what's going on in the post reporting and the ap reporting. >> what is a leadership profile? it seems like a nice word for stuff that spies put together to tell politician what is their adversaries are life. >> it is 14, 15 paragraphs that go into somebody's background, educational history, financial positions they have had and positions they have taken on major policy issues. there is nuggets about whether the person likes to s

the jeremy corbyn to try and pull that one is quite disgraceful.ely not come up with a manifesto that is completely costed, it does take the pressure off labour. we saw things with their free breakfast policy this week. they have had to row back on that... because the costin was wrong. apparently across more than seven pager have breakfast. you think! it's not the most important meal of the day under the conservatives. let's think about polls them, and this tightening of believed that the conservatives are said to have. depends on your view of polls, after what we have seen in the last few years, how accurate they are. we have been told not to trust polls, and we all promised every election and every referendum we will never trust polls again. then we get a poll and get very excited and spend a day talking about it. but the problem is, 5—point lead that the tories have fallen to seems very slim, but given that the past few years have taught us that the past few years have taught us to expect the unexpected, you can't completely dismiss the possibil

i don't like jeremy corbyn.ive her hoped—for contrast home, so after a tricky few days, a top up of her main message — back onto brexit... to try to get away from accusations of indecision. her number one target — the labour leader. with his position on brexit, he will find himself alone and naked in the negotiating chamber of the european union. with the brexit negotiations due to begin only 11 days after polling day, he is not prepared for those negotiations. but i am prepared. prepared to take the difficult decisions that leadership demands. i'm ready to go, jeremy corbyn is not. prime minister, election campaigns test our leaders, don't they? isn't the emerging truth of this campaign that it's showing you as a leader to be weaker rather than stronger? laura, let me tell you what i think strong and stable leadership is about. strong and stable leadership is about being open with the british people about the challenges that we face, and that's what we've done in the manifesto that we've set out. strong and sta

he isa that's what jeremy is trying to do.t that does not mean to say it is wrong. but very little on brexit and like it or not, that is central to this election campaign. mr corbyn seems unable to provide clarity or conviction on brexit. i disagree. i think what he was saying is what i have been saying, which is brexit has been decided. we don't want a rehash this. what we want, going forward is the best deal for everybody in this country, and the kind of in a difficult position at the moment because until we get the selection out the way, we just put everything on hold, we can then start fighting for the best deal for everybody, so it's not that brexit is not central, it's that literally at the moment we cannot do much but also there are so many other things, i care about the nhs, i care about families, education, they are also things we need to fight for. thanks very much for your time. we will get a lot more speeches from jeremy corbyn because their team think while their policies are popular, the real thing which might pr

there is i'io public then jeremy corbyn.other poll today showing the conservatives have a12 today showing the conservatives have a 12 point lead, down from about 25 points but it is at odds with the idea that we are heading for that. and there is another poll showing theresa may is in line for a 100 seat majority. someone will end up with egg on their face! seat majority. someone will end up with egg on theirface! the daily mail has a story about labour's plan for britain to open their doors wider. letting in tens of thousands of unskilled migrants, being leaked? it has the hallmarks of a conservative operation, leaking what would be perceived to be very damaging for labour, being soft on immigration and going to the telegraph and the mail. presumably something left by a photocopier in the house of commons has been scooped up by conservative workers. ido scooped up by conservative workers. i do not know how concrete it is as a policy, whether it is hypothetical oi’ a policy, whether it is hypothetical or what they are intend

jeremy corbyn seen as party at the moment. jeremy corbyn seen as s0 party at the moment.as so divisive that even his own party don't want him. should a landslide happened, and i think that perhaps labour mps would like a landslide happened, then they can maybe push to get corbin out. but if it doesn't happen, the story says that already moderate labour candidates are in talks with potential donors to set up or at least sit independently under a progressive banner. as we have known for some time, because they already tried to get him out with a no—confidence vote, things are not all rosy in the labour garden. you did mention the word allegedly there! christopher hope put this together, and a long night of the paper is here, where is your sourcing, christopher. i can't see any quotes. i was an investigative journalist for many years, if i put out something without a tribute in yet, it would never have hit the air. here, this is a really damning piece saying 101 people are setting up piece saying 101 people are setting upa new piece saying 101 people are setting up a new pro

jeremy corbyn and the labour party wa nt jeremy corbyn and the labour party want uncontrolled migrationly pro—eu lib dems, keen to warn about what they see as potential dangers of brexit. we are the only party that is trying daily to say that there are big questions here, not only on immigration but the impact on the nhs, schools, people's livelihoods, on how we go about brexit. the snp want immigration powers to be devolved to the scottish parliament. ukip say they want to cut net migration to zero. a one in, one out policy. for all of the rows about immigration and the uncertainty about what the next government may do, one thing is very clear. very soon, they will have direct responsibility for it, and so be directly accountable too. chris mason, bbc news. in the past hour, jeremy corbyn has confirmed he'll take part in tonight's live election debate, on the bbc, with representatives of six other major parties. the labour leader has repeatedly challenged theresa may to a debate but she has ruled out taking part. our assistant political editor, norman smith, is westminster. this was a

in a last—minute change, labour's jeremy corbyn will be taking part.he labour leader said he'd changed his mind on taking part because voters deserved to see leaders being challenged, and he invited theresa may tojoin him. i invite her to go to cambridge and debate her policies, debate her record, debate their plans, debate her proposals and make the public make up their mind. but mrs may, visiting the west country today, said she preferred to be meeting voters on the campaign trail. 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. also on tonight's programme... 15 years in jail for the surgeon who carried out needless operations. thejudge said ian paterson was driven by material rewards. today, his patients spoke out. over four years of trauma and stress in trying to bring this man to account. no amount of prison sentence will ever compensate what myself and the other people a

i just don't like jeremy corbyn.ave the eu. just over 39% wa nted to leave the eu. just over 39% wanted to remain. i've always done that, always will. no reason why. why before the conservatives? i've been a union official for quite a few years, i'm a labour member, but ifind few years, i'm a labour member, but i find corbyn completely inflatable. blue, 0k. why the conservatives.” think she seems the strongest person to be prime minister. so you like a pro—business voice with a social conscience. yeah. and you're not getting that with mrs may? definitely not. and voting labour for the nhs. i definitely not. and voting labour forthe nhs. ithink definitely not. and voting labour for the nhs. i think there are more for the nhs. i think there are more for the nhs. i think there are more for the working class person. picture is emerging that for the two main parties, labour have got the edge here. but it will be no surprise that at the end of this week, people's thoughts are on the people of manchester. here is a list of

with that said, please help me welcome jeremy haft [applause] jeremy: thank you. thank you so much. thank you, karen. thank you for coming. thank you for hosting this. i confess that i was the one that voted for no podium. i tend to get lost. when i started doing business in china, 20 years ago, i was four -- i was 6'4". here is the thing i want to talk about. it is different in china from what we hear from our politics. the topic today is very timely. we have the president arriving today to meet with president trump to talk about a host of pressing issues. i have to admit, this was good timing. karen and i put our heads together several months ago and we thought, do think the fifth? the sixth? we picked well. i want to talk to about a topic that is not only timely, it is fraught, it is emotional. we will talk about china and we will talk about jobs. and so doing, i want to bring your attention to a study that was referred to in a book. it is called "unspun." it is about a science experiment done during the kerry-bush election where they took a focus group of partisan democrats and

jeremy corybn's right hand man today made the bold claim that labour can win the election.k the shadow defence secretary what that would mean for protecting the country. the little boy who witnessed the horrific murder of his mother rachel nickell 25 years ago tells his story of the trauma he suffered, and the impact of relentless press intrusion. all of a sudden we saw this man lunging forward with a black bag over his shoulder, and then everything happened. in a matter of seconds i was grabbed, thrown to the floor, my face dragged across the mud. seconds later my mother collapsed next to me. and newsnight‘s own battle bus ventures to the parts of the country shunned by the election circus. you don't get much of a buzz around here. that's why we are here! this evening, donald trump left washington for this first foreign trip as president. eight days away, visiting five countries, including saudi arabia and israel. often an outing on the global stage is an opportunity to draw the heat from domestic travails, but in trump's case there's no chance of a let—up back at base, in

and in a last—minute change, labour's jeremy corbyn will be taking part.he labour leader said he'd changed his mind on taking part because voters deserved to see leaders being challenged. and he invited theresa may tojoin him. i invite her to go to cambridge and debate her policies, debate her record, debate their plans, debate their proposals and let the public make up their minds. but mrs may — visiting the west country today — said she preferred to be meeting voters on the campaign trail. 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. inside the senate building of the university of cambridge final preparations are being made for the bbc debate featuring no fewer than seven party representatives. we'll have more from huw in a moment. the other main stories on bbc news at five. jailed for 15 years — the breast surgeon who carried out a series of unnecessary operations at hospitals

jeremy corbyn says it contains policies that will be "very popular". an offer that will transform the lives of many people in our society and ensure that we have a government in britain onjune the 8th that will work for the many, not the few. the bank of england downgrades its forecast for economic growth this year, with a warning of a squeeze on consumer spending. official figures suggest waiting times for some nhs services in england are the worst in five years. coming up on newsnight: the politics, policy and reaction to labour's manifesto so far. is it as radical as we have been told? good evening and welcome to bbc news. labour's election manifesto has been formally approved by the party leadership and will be published next week. jeremy corbyn said the policies would be fully costed and would prove to be very popular with voters. some of those policies had already been revealed after a version of the document was leaked overnight. it included proposals to re—nationalise the railways and to scrap university tuition fees in england. our political e

jeremy corbyn. there were four party leaders. westminster party leader, one co—leader and a stunt double. the first question of the night, who is missing? theresa may. the reason any leading lady sends a stunt double is so she doesn't get damaged if things go wrong. so with this, amber rudd's tactic was clear. ignore the others, but slam jeremy corbyn hard at every opportunity. jeremy, i know there is no extra payment you don't want to add to, no tax you don't want to rise. but the fact is we have to concentrate our resources on the people who need it most and we have to stop thinking, as you do, that there is a magic money tree. you have to be accountable for the money you want to spend. have you been to a food bank? have you seen people sleeping around our stations? jeremy corbyn managed quite a few slams back. we cannot go on giving money away to the very rich. this government is proposing another £60 billion in tax giveaways in the next five years. instead i say turn it round and invest in the future of all of our people. wit

jeremy: next question? [laughter] jeremy: i'm getting. thank you. i will say this, 20 years in business in china and not one bribe. not one bribe. now, um, i am not a big enough company to get to the point where i might need to start bribing. kumbaya complaint when they reach a certain size -- companies complain when they reach a certain size in china is start to be a shakedown. we have seen these with the provincial governor who was involved in a money laundering operation and was arrested on charges and there was murder, that kind of racket has been run. so corruption is so endemic in china. to the point where you are a student graduating from school and you are bribing to get your diploma, you are waiting in the hospital and bribing a doctor. and it is in every aspect of chinese life. as an american firm, again, we did not fall to those practices and we have not bribed anyone and we have not found it too much to our disadvantage yet. for example, i am selling american agriculture at a higher price than local prices, because my buyers perceive the

jeremy corbyn.'m here to debate the future of our country. the question in this election is whether we want a country for the many or just the few. the state of our nhs, our children's schools, social care for older people, our young people saddled with debt, none of that is remotely strong or stable. and now the conservatives want five more years of cuts to our vital public services to fund tax hand—outs for the wealthy few. labour will make very different choices. there will be no tax rises for 95% of taxpayers. but we will ask those with the most to contribute a bit more so no one is held back from achieving their potential. onjune 8th you have a choice — more cuts in services and living standards with the conservatives, or vote labour to transform britain for the many, not the few. the ukip leader is paul nuttall. ukip will always put the interests of british people first. whether that is prioritising our nhs and social care over a bloated and ineffective foreign aid programme, or protecting tho

——jeremy is arguing for a change of strategy. —— jeremy corbyn.icy, we do it every hour of every day of the week. this is a 24/7 job. listen to the approach of amber rudd in recent days which has been very objective and empirical. i think there are changes that need to be made in my view, we should return to these restrictions which were part of control orders. i think more money should be given to the prevent strand of counterterrorism policy which is mostly very successful and admires from all over the world. but admires from all over the world. but a speed that says let's throw away with the baby with the bath water, less reject the amazing work that has been done for example fry the security services seems to me to be ridiculous and something of an insult to the people of manchester. we heard yesterday from the security services that five plots have been further the last two months alone since the westminster terrorist attack. jeremy corbyn said he wanted to stop austerity at the police station... he would reverse cuts to the police. is that s

a labour party led by jeremy corbyn very far from it.imply chuck away at ability to defend ourselves is crazy and not the way i wa nt ourselves is crazy and not the way i want so. you see defence policy sucking in billions of pounds on trident, at a time when a conventional defence force has seen cut after cut after cut. approval for the leaders line here, today, but labour needs converts, lots of them. —— leader's line. well theresa may was campaigning in the north—east today, in an attempt to win over labour voters. she accused jeremy corbyn of deserting what she called "proud and patriotic" working class people. and as mr corbyn was outlying labour's foreign policy plans, mrs may didn't rule out a future parliamentary vote on joining american military strikes against syria. here's our political editor laura kuenssberg. what the tories might expect, a raw reception in much of the northeast england. the tories will ruin our environment. can the conservatives win around here, no! definitely not! no chance! a very small selection of peopl

not just with jeremy corbyn supporters but potentially among large numbers.inside the labour party there are very different views. one senior figure said to party there are very different views. one seniorfigure said to me this is basically the manifesto ed miliband would have liked to write if he had had the nerve. he said there were clever ideas in it and if sold properly it could do quite well. another former minister said to me this is like a letter to santa claus and with sceptical over whether it would prove popular enough. but i think the question tonight is not is it forward—looking? or is it a blast from the past? the test is whether this manifesto will add up to something that's credible. and we won't see how labour are adding up the sums, and won't be able to a nswer the sums, and won't be able to answer that until next week. laura, thank you very much. the time is coming up to 17 minutes past six. our top story this evening: public ownership of the railways and royal mail — jeremy corbyn spells out labour's offer to the electorate. and still to co

jeremy corbyn is speaking they are.oing to be saying. he launched his manifesto this morning in bradford, what he called a radical plan for a fairer britain. he will be speaking in the next couple of minutes, we think. if he gives us a few words later on we will tell you. let's cross the pond to the united states. the white house finds itself in more controversy today, after a us newspaper reported that president trump disclosed highly classified information to the russian foreign minister at a meeting last week. the intelligence, about the so—called islamic state group, came from an ally of the us who had not given permission for it to be shared with russia. in the last hour, president trump has defended his actions on twitter, saying he had an "absolute right" to share with russia facts pertaining to terrorism. wyre davies reports. did he or didn't he? in the latest travels to hurt the president trump white house, allegations that he revealed highly classified information to the russian foreign minister during the ova

anita kamir, and jeremy peters, an msnbc contributor. welcome to awe you will.jeremy, i've been thinking about you because of the time you spent thinking about and reminding people about our two bubbles. our two sides in this country. you noted that people went into the weekend with different views of the comey story. different views of the potential white house taping story. tonight on another cable network, i'm hearing people talk about this president's ability or inability to faithfully execute the office of president. his potential lack of fitness for office. is this one skewing both ways? is this a partisan looking story? >> i think, brian, it's shaping up to be that way. i'm hesitant to draw any conclusions just a few hours after the story broke, but in the early cuts of the news cycle, what you're seeing is partisans taking the same series of events and picking very different sets of facts out of those events to draw their conclusions. i think what you do have here is a president who maybe otherwise would have received the benefit of the doubt because of

jeremy corbyn has had a hard time. it's all over the papers here in the uk.rt jeremy corbyn and they are gleefully reporting that his car ran over the foot of the bbc cameraman. a big union leaders stepped on —— slipped on the stairs. the image they are trying to present is that this is a campaign in disarray. this is the one occasion where jeremy corbyn has some sympathy with mr trump. he cannot ship the narrative no matter what he tries to do. he was not driving the car. although he has some concerns about the media, he did not tell the driver to run over the bbc man's bullets. but he cannot ship the narrative. —— shift. these images are all over the papers. he tried to get some properties —— some policies out. it actually some good traction. they are just not getting the cut through that he needs at this point. we have a lot of elections this year. germany, you run. elections this year. germany, you i’ui’i. “ elections this year. germany, you run. —— iran. although macron won the election, there is a powerful pa rt the election, there is a powerful part of

jeremy corbyn has said the "war on terror" has not worked. said this was the fourth general election in a row during which britain had been at war and "fresh thinking" was needed. mr corbyn insisted he was not a pacifist, but warned against a "bomb first, talk later" approach. with me now is richard reeve from oxford research group, the independent peace and security think—tank. what did you make of whatjeremy corbyn had to say? it was a strong speech, he struck all the right notes, contextualising it around the war on terror and things the jewel report was saying last year. probably sufficient to lead rather than too little too late. in terms of what the leaked manifesto has been saying on defence diplomacy he said he does not look as soft as the papers have been portraying him in the past few days. boris johnson has said, he is a guy who has campaigned all his life to weaken the uk's defences. is that how many voters see him? many will see him like that because that is how he has been portrayed but there's emphasis is on less tha n portraye
