corbyn also promised more investment in britain's arts, music, film and theatre as our political correspondent ben wright reports. in what used to be an old fruit and veg market, jeremy corbyn jeremy corbynur had already promised to scrap tuition fees for english students studying at english universities from next year. now he says students starting this year will be free of fees. surely we should be investing in our future. somebody who doesn't achieve the profession they want — nursing, teaching, medicine in some otherform, engineering, — whatever it happens to be, they lose out, but we, as a society, lose out because we've lost a qualified person who can help improve our industries, improve our services, improve our quality of life. from this autumn, universities in england can charge up to £9,250 a year for undergraduate courses. labour says new students and those part way through courses would have free tuition from this autumn. the party claims this policy would cost the taxpayer £9.5 billion a year. but the tories, lib dems and those studying the numbers said the policy would benefit better off graduates most of all. if you're a relatively low earner, you'll never pay back anythin

hands of the conservatives because their key campaign attack line on jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremy corbyn and labour is that jeremyemy 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 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

jeremy corbyn, they are a brand. and jeremy corbyn, they are a brand. and jeremy corbyn, they are a brand. hat 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 in fleet street, kelvin mackenzie certa

corbyn. i like the way the jeremy corbyn. i like the way the jeremy corbyn. ke 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 has to go along with the party. we

steve howell, jeremy corbyn's deputy director of communications recorded in this tape being quizzed on what to say, because jeremy corbyn keeps coming up because jeremyrs concerned about jeremy corbyn. he up 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

jeremy corbyn, the ma nifesto you set us up? jeremy corbyn, the manifesto seems to have been exclusively in several papers, which i know it's a bit strange. let's start with the daily mirror headline, which says it pretty well. it does. it leads into a peek inside spread as well, detailing this lea ked spread as well, detailing this leaked draft, setting out a very extensive range of policies which the mirror builds very favourably, the mirror builds very favourably, the other papers we will come to our obviously much less favourable. this says he will fix rip—off britain, boost nhs schools and scrap tuition fees. talking about how power and the railways will be renationalised and other policies including abolishing tuition fees. there is an extensive list and inside they say that labour have pledged to undo the damage of seven years of tory austerities, describing it as the bullet of red—blooded socialism and then there is a note saying that tories are rotten to the core, pages six and seven. it is the favourable look at what is a very extensive ma nifesto, look at what is a very extensive manifesto, by the looks of things, which all sorts of people will like and others will not. kate, there is loads of it, particularly within the inside of the mirror, and you can pick out whatever makes you happy or ci’oss pick out whatever makes you happy or cross really, can't you? i think some of it is what has been missing from labour's campaign so far. some of the things they have announced that not really been that different from what ed miliband announced basically in the 2015 manifesto, so the question was kind of becoming, what is the point of a veteran socialist taking over the labour party if he's not going to have some socialist policies? which of the things we do say speak to that?” think certainly renationalisation is something that ed miliband never wanted to go towards. scrapping of tuition fees is not something you could have seen in the 2015 manifesto. and of course people will say, and how will you pay for it mr corbyn? there is quite a lot of detail about that as well? it's mainly pre—things like raising corporation tax, which the tories claim has been spent several times over and the labour party say is fully costed. there is some support for that run the institute for fiscal studies who say that theoretically at least it is paid for, albeit with the risk that corporation tax increases release in lower corporation tax receipts in the long run. because companies find other ways of doing things. because actually we have record corporation tax income last year despite corporation tax having gone down. if you ask for public opinion, surveys, things like we nationalising the railways, although it is quite a left—wing thing to do, it tends to get very high approval ratings in public approval ratings. if we look at the daily telegraph, same story but the difference lance. corbyn ‘s ma nifesto but the difference lance. corbyn ‘s manifesto will take britain back to the 1970s, amongst other things they have highlighted, trade unions to be welcomed into the number ten fold. they are also highlighting a pay cap, which they say would also bring us cap, which they say would also bring us back to the 19705. very interestingly, there is detail on what will be a row in labour about defence and it looks like it is the kind of outcome very ten5e negotiations. 0bviou5ly jeremyviou5ly jeremy corbyn has long been on the record of being again5t corbyn has long been on the record of being against the nuclear deterrent, will commit to renewal, which of course is already happening, but it will have a cautiou5 u5e caveat, a5 happening, but it will have a cautiou5 u5e caveat, as it were. it 5how5 cautiou5 u5e caveat, as it were. it shows the tensions within his own party, even with this kind of manifesto. i like the daily mail front page - could have had front page which could have had their headline written by the same sub editor at the daily telegraph. that is one of the problems. i was thinking when i looked at this bat may be the 1970s weren't so bad. we had scorching summers, leaves united won the football, but had scorching summers, leaves united won the fo( there bus; had scorching summers, leaves united won the fo( there is s; had scorching summers, leaves united woi here fo( there is s; had scorching summers, leaves united woi here fo( there is assumingi h

jeremy corbyn has made this case. he's held this belief for quite some time. none the less, they are prepared for a barrage of criticism tomorrow when he gives this speech, but those people around jeremy corbyn and jeremyuld be dishonest, perhaps, and certainly not giving a full picture to have a proper debate about why this happened and how it could be prevented in the future without looking at the whole situation. and, for them, that includes britain's wa rs for them, that includes britain's wars abroad. laura kuenssberg, at westminster, thank you. a brief look at some of the day's other news stories. the former itv weather presenter, fred talbot, has been found guilty of indecently assaulting seven boys in the 19705 and 805. at the time, talbot was a teacher at a grammar school in greater manchester. the assaults occurred during camping and boating trips in scotland. talbot, previouslyjailed forfive years for two other assaults, will be sentenced next month. the court of appeal has ruled that doctors can stop providing life—support treatment to a nine—month—old baby who has a rare genetic illness. charlie gard's parents raised more than £1 million to take him to america for experimental treatment. b

jeremy corbyn! but jeremy corbyn did not seem down after yesterday's drubbing and his supporters are as fired up as ever. visiting best in the east midlands he conceded labour faced a huge challenge.

richard lister reports. they call him billy whizz. one of the rising stars of british motorsport. he was supposed to be racing this weekend. instead he's reading messages from driving legends like lewis hamilton and niki lauda after the injuries that changed his life. that's amazing. and as i turn over there would be signatures from many world champions, that really touched my heart, i was lost for words, and i still am. three weeks ago he was racing at donington park at 120 miles an hour when he struck a stationary car. he was airlifted to the queens medical centre in nottingham, where they carried out partial amputations of both legs. today he was preparing to go home, grateful for the staff who saved his life. without them i wouldn't be here today, so massive thanks to every single one of the staff that have helped me. it's going to be emotional saying goodbye to them all. billy turned 18 yesterday and is contemplating a return to racing eventually. his team has already helped raise more than £800,000 towards his recovery and those who will be racing at thruxton this weekend are ensuring that although he won't be there his nickname will at least still feature on the grid. itjust shows you that when a tragic event like this happens how people are brought together. i definitely want to take the positives out of this and make sure that i use it in a positive way for the rest of my life now. i've still got a few years left in me for sure. watch this space. richard lister, bbc news. that's it, i'll be back with the team for the news on bbc one at ten, now it's time for the news where you are. hello. this is bbc news. traditional craft skills like sewing and painting, along with baking, have had something of a resurgence in the uk. this weekend the first ever national festival of making begins to celebrate britain's manufacturing food and creative industries. two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and go. every day 80,000 muffins and cakes are made at the cherrytree bakery. that requires a lot of repetitive movement. the latest creation to emerge from the factory floor, it's chorley cake meets swan lake. the workers' actions turned into dance. the idea of making bakers in burnley balletic came from choreographer ruth jones. these machines now make the workers work really fast, so when they do many mini—muffin day, they're squeezed up like this and they're working really, really fast, whereas in the olden days they could move, it was slower and they have more space. and this is incorporated into the piece? it's all incorporated into the piece. we wanted to be inspired by all the activity that goes on on this factory floor. the movement is unique. and it was a very collaborative process. i showed her how to decorate brownies. we have to take a piping bag and do circles on the brownie. it was so beautiful to see how our moves at work, what we are doing became such a beautiful dance. it was beautiful. amazing, really. it was great, it was really inspirational. we didn't think we could do that just by our general movements in a bakery. it was really fun to watch and to learn. and go. two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight... again, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight... the idea that it could be beneficial to the staff was a big part of why the bakery allowed a choreographer into the mix. there is actually method to this, that it could improve performance? that's what the choreographer said to us, that in terms of being more conscious of your movements and maybe changing the way you do it so it's a little bit better for your body. you've actually opted to take part yourself. any reservations? a lot, but i felt i couldn't really ask them to do something i wasn't willing to do myself, so i was, like, ok. with four performances this weekend at the festival of making, it's hoped the bakers will rise to the occasion. let's find out how the weather is looking. broadly speaking the weekend has got off to a fairly dry start. there have been variations from place to place some have seen sunshine and others have been stuck under cloud. you can see there was a lump of cloud across central areas and outbreaks of patchy rain in the south west. only plaguing southern devon, cornwall, and the channel islands. elsewhere it has been largely dry and there have been spells of sunshine. they will lose the rain from the far south. there will be some clear spells. large areas of cloud floating around, particularly across north—eastern scotla nd particularly across north—eastern scotland and north eastern england. most scotland and north eastern england. m ost pla ces scotland and north eastern england. most places avoiding a frost. in the north—west of the country in the clear spells it would be a chilly start to the morning. further north and east, here we will see more cloud and the odd spot of drizzle. murky conditions and that extends across the north—east of england. down across the midlands, east anglia, into the south—east, we will start tomorrow with a lot of cloud from up there could be the odd spot of drizzle. 11 degrees for london and south hampton. in the south—west there has been rain. tomorrow was. offa there has been rain. tomorrow was. off a fine. —— tomorrow we'll start of fine. along the coast, northern ireland will have a sparkling start to the days of the plenty of sunshine

jeremy corbyn seen as party at the moment. jeremy corbyn seen as s0 party at the moment. jeremyivisive 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 progressiv

jeremy corbyn victory just already talking about a jeremy corbyn victoryjust by dint of the fa ct corbyn victoryjust by dint of the fact that he is turning up. so we performed as well as we expected to. but we still increased on our vote share from where we were in 2015. something to take some excitement from. we will keep doing that across the country and i'm sure we will have some interesting results. now plaid cymru, thank you for being with us. this is an important stage for you because you can get out your message to a national audience. absolutely and the only reason you're asking about wales tonight is because plaid cymru is here. and it is up to the people of wales to decide where they want to be after this campaign is over. so we need to elect a strong plaid cymru to ensure that wales is going to be on the uk agenda into the future. leanne wood has made a great impression in previous television debates. her sincerity shines through and that is something that people will see across the uk. what do you think the perception is going to be of theresa may not turning up?” perception is going to be of theresa may not turning up? i think it is quite cynicalfor the may not turning up? i think it is quite cynical for the party leaders to use this debate for their own means tonight. theresa may called the election but does not want to be held accountable for her policies. and jeremymake political capital. people want politicians to be upfront and turn up politicians to be upfront and turn up and allow themselves to be scrutinised. and leanne wood is standing upfor scrutinised. and leanne wood is standing up for welsh interests. thank you all. sam coates, deputy political editor of the times and george eaton, political editor of the news statesman. what you expect tonight? jeremy corbyn, that is the big surprise. a lot will ride on that. the dynamics will be slightly awkward. because theresa may is not there. a lot of the debate will be taken up by criticising her decision not to fightjeremy corbyn and turn up tonight. does that make a difference, i'm not so sure. really whether or notjeremy corbyn can shine against his opponents, those on the left and the ride, and whether he can continue to perform well in the media. one feature of this election has been the way that many smaller parties have seen their vote really disappear and all go to the labour party if the

jeremy corbyn has just finished giving peterborough? well, jeremy corbyn hasjust finished giving his peterborough? well, jeremyving his speech to labour party members and activists in peterborough. you can see the battlebus is still behind me. jeremy corbyn came with a message about pensioners, clearly sensing that the conservative party is vulnerable on this issue. it is a huge political shift if you cast your mind back to david cameron's conservative party. back then, the conservatives were seen as the party of protecting older people. with these manifesto changes on pensions, on social care, on the issue of means testing winter fuel allowance, jeremy corbyn senses an opportunity. in his speech today in peterborough, he accused the conservatives of abandoning unthreatening pensioners. we have a process in this country called winter fuel allowance is. they are there for a reason. because there is so much poverty amongst older people, some of whom die of hypothermia. so there is a winter fuel allowance. and it is paid to everybody, universally, as is so many other universal services in this country. they propo

jeremy corbyn has said she will take pa rt jeremy corbyn has said she will take part ina jeremy corbyn live television debate with six other leaders today. he has challenged theresa may to take part. you were waiting forjeremy corbyn, but he is not coming out. yes, he was meant to be here doing some campaigning this lunchtime and that is why there are hundreds of people here who had been hoping to see him in the flesh, speaking live, rallying the troops. in actual fact, it is angela rayner, the shadow education minister, who is here instead ofjeremy corbyn. that is all thatjeremy corbyn instead ofjeremy corbyn. that is all that jeremy corbyn can instead ofjeremy corbyn. that is all thatjeremy corbyn can get off to that debate in cambridge and prepare for the event this evening. i think the labour campaign is experiencing buoyant at the moment and that is why they have decided that the last minute thatjeremy corbyn should take part in this debate. they feel that his performances are getting better and better throughout the campaign and they feel that the more the public get to see jerem

jeremy corbyn. but, ithink without theresa may and jeremy corbyn. but, i think it is a wise decision by both jeremy prime minister's questions times, neither of them can think on their feet. it looks like... they have the structure but when you look at what they say there is no content. i think that neither of them do particularly well in debate. but, you know, that is what the voters wa nt to you know, that is what the voters want to see. that is what theresa may has been criticised for on the campaign trail. she met one voter on the trail and it went very badly. she certainly will get some flak on this but i doubt it is going to cause a dent in her polling. because jeremy corbyn is in a more vulnerable position and has criticised theresa may for not debating, he will probably get a bit more damage. we will see five people behind the podium, and not two others. what do you make of it? they need a good night. for a long time journalists said the error of two party politics is over. an opinion poll gives a combined vote share over 83% for labour and the conservatives. ukip down that 2%, lib dems on

jeremy corbyn. jeremy corbyn will formally launch labour's election campaign today by saying that his party is not trying to find a way to keep britain in the european union. mr corbyn, who'll be in greater manchester, will say the issue of brexit is settled. he'll be joined by the city's new metro mayor andy burnham and will focus on labour's pledge to take on the rich and powerful. throughout the election campaign we'll be putting your questions to politicians from all the main parties. today at 11:30 we'll be putting your questions to lib dem shadow home secretary lord paddick. you can get in touch via twitter using the hashtag #bbcaskthis — or text your questions to 611211. and you can email us as well at askthis@bbc.co.uk. a multi—million—pound trial launches today to assess whether statins — taken by millions of people every year to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes — may also help those with multiple sclerosis. ms affects the central nervous system and can cause mobility problems. it's thought statins could help slow the progression of the condition, as sarah smith reports. statins — prescribed to six million of us every year to lower cholesterol. but in the coming months, a major new trial will test whether they could help tackle a condition which can wreak devastation on sufferers. multiple sclerosis causes the immune system to attack the lining of the nerves, disrupting messages travelling along nerve fibres. it can mean increasing levels of disability. more than 100,000 people in the uk have ms. half will develop the secondary, progressive stage. there is currently no treatment to slow its progress and this trial, involving more than 1,000 people, is aimed at them. if we can prove it has a long—term impact, long—term results for people with ms, we know its safety record, it's extremely cheap, so it could be quickly made available to everyone that needs it and it won't put a big hole in the nhs budget. a previous, smaller study suggested statins did have an impact. this trial will provide much more information. but, at six years long, it will be some time before it's known just how effective statins could be. sarah smith, bbc news. the sun's former editor kelvin mackenzie is to leave the paper because of offensive remarks in his column last month about the everton footballer ross barkley. mr mackenzie was suspended after comparing the player, who is white, but has a nigerian grandfather, to a gorilla. people in south korea are voting for a new president after a corruption scandal brought down their former leader. the frontrunner, liberal moon jae—in, wants to boost ties with north korea and reform the powerful family—run companies that dominate the economy. former president park geun—hye was ousted on charges of bribery and abuse of power in march. a 35—year—old man will appear in court today in connection with a dog attack on a two—year—old girl in liverpool on sunday. the toddler suffered injuries to her head and body when several dogs got into the garden where she was playing in toxteth. she's in a serious but stable condition in hospital. andrew mcgowan has been accused of being in charge of four dogs that were dangerously out of control. a woman who alleges she was sexually harassed at fox news has asked uk media regulators to block 21st century fox's planned purchase of sky. 0fcom is investigating whether it's in the public interest for the murdoch—owned company to take full ownership of sky. 0ur media editor amol rajan reports. for the threats we face today... over two decades, a mixture of conspiracy, aggression and nationalism has made rupert murdoch's fox news channel the most watched cable news network in america. but this huge corporate scandal has shaken fox news to the core. the network's former boss, roger ailes, departed last year and anchor bill 0'reilly left last month. they are both denying extensive sexual and racial harassment allegations. also gone, though not facing the same allegations, is co—president bill shine. so, arguably the three most important men at fox are out. for the murdochs, the timing couldn't be worse. they are currently trying to take full control of the british broadcaster sky, through an acquisition by 21st century fox. they declined an interview request, so i said hello to the boss as he left work in manhattan. i'm from the bbc. are you worried about 0fcom, at all? no. you should be worried about the bbc as well. i said, sorry, i can't do that. radio host wendy walsh, seen here with lawyer lisa bloom, filed a complaint against 0'reilly by phone. the two women flew from los angeles to london specifically to explain to 0fcom why, in their view, the murdochs are not fit and proper to own sky outright. 21st century fox, parent of fox news, says it has taken prompt and decisive action to improve its workplace, overhauling top management and appointing women to several senior positions. we will be talking to wendy walsh later in the programme. faulty airbags, steering and fuel issues are just some of the problems that led to the highest ever rate of car—related recalls in europe in the first three months of this year. the uk ranked third behind germany and france for the number of recalls, but car manufacturers say less than half of uk customers take up the necessary repairs. this is cctv footage showing the moment a ship hit a huge crane in one of the world's busiest ports in dubai. 10 people were left with minor injuries. an investigation is under way. let's get some sport. chelsea are nearly there? chelsea are one win away from the premier league title. they beat middlebrough 3—0 last night at stamford bridge a result that also saw boro relegated. diego costa, marcos alonso and nemanja matic scored the chelsea goals and the task is very simple now because they play again before their title rivals spurs. if they can beat west bromwich albion on friday then they would go ten points clear in the table and they would be champions with two games to spare. it was very important to win and to exploit their defeat. yeah, we must be pleased now. another step, another step to win the title. for sure, now it's important to rest very well and to prepare for the west brom game. sulley muntari has called on uefa and fifa to prove that they are serious about tackling racism. he called on the governing bodies to prove they are serious about tackling the issue. the formner portsmouth midfielder walked out of a game playing for pescara in italy's serie a after being racially abused. he was subsequently banned but that was overturned following worldwide condemnation of his treatment. if they want to fight racism... they should be the first people to jump on. we're playing football here, under fifa, under uefa. if they had nothing to say about it, probably they didn't have tv on their side. or maybe they ran out of internet. that's why they didn't comment. but if it is unnecessary things for them... but this is a big deal. this is really a big deal. racism is a big deal. remember yesterday we were looking forward to the match between maria sharapova and eugenie bouchard. the candaian has been one of the most outspoken critics of sharapova's return to tour after a 15 month doping ban she called her a cheater and wanted the russian banned for life. so that was the background to their second round match at the madrid 0pen yesterday. it lasted three hours and bouchard won in three sets and she celebrated as if she'd won the tournament. it clearly meant an awful lot to her and she revealed afterwards that there were a lot of fellow players who were willing her on as well. i was actually quite inspired before the match because i had a lot of players coming up to me privately, wishing me good luck, players i don't normally speak to. getting a lot of texts from people in the tennis world that were just rooting for me. so i wanted to do it for myself but also all of these people so i really felt support. that is all for now. i will be back with more sport later. hello, good morning. welcome to a cloudy and overcast camborne in cornwall. it is a small town in the middle of the county and we are here to talk to people ahead of the general election. let me tell you a little bit about the town. the population is about 20,000. one resident described it as faded. another as a bit old—fashioned. another as a bit old—fashioned. another said it was a bit of a dump. 0n the high street, which is where we are, a small square, as you can see, just off the high street, i can describe what is around us. we have apollo bingo. as you can see, a bingo hall. we have a couple of banks. 0n the high street, which is long, actually, there are two pasty shops, bakeries, a tattoo parlour, the inevitable costa coffee and nine charity or pound shops. that is because there are pockets of deprivation. 2500 children live in poverty in this town. 2596 25% of people have no qualifications, that's compared with 22% across england. 7% of households don't have central heating in camborne. 34% of people are in full—time work compared to 39% across england. so talking to people here, there are three things that come up — here, there are three things that come up — one, here, there are three things that come up — one, low here, there are three things that come up — one, low wages. here, there are three things that come up — one, low wages. everybody says all thejobs, which come up — one, low wages. everybody says all the jobs, which are pretty much in the retail and service sectors are low wages and often seasonal those jobs as well. two, no affordable homes. exacerbated by wealthy people coming in from outside to buy up second holiday homes which pushes the prices up and reduces the supply. three, a feeling that politicians don't really care about them because they are 300 miles from westminster. so we're here to talk to people ahead of the election. let me take you inside what is a former reading institute for gentlemen, now a day care centre for gentlemen, now a day care centre for the over 50s. it was originally for the over 50s. it was originally for the over 60s, but because things got tighter they've reduced the age to the over 50s and they are considering reducing it to the other 40s as well. good morning, hi there, isjudith. how are you? hi everybody. good morning. you don't have to shush. don't be daft! you don't have to shush. it is our programme! let me introduce you to various people. we've got don gardener who runs an independent foodbank and steve who has used the foodbank and steve who has used the foodbank in the past. hi, steve. we've got rachel george who is a mum and carerfor we've got rachel george who is a mum and carer for her disabled we've got rachel george who is a mum and carerfor her disabled son we've got rachel george who is a mum and carer for her disabled son who is ten. hi rachel. we've got laura allen who is a single parent and working mum. good morning. welcome to our working mum. good morning. welcome to oui’ programme. working mum. good morning. welcome to our programme. general question, do you feel exercised by this election, do you feel engaged, do you feel passionate? election, do you feel engaged, do you feel passionate ?|j election, do you feel engaged, do you feel passionate? i feel a bit passionate. i'm still undecided, but i'm taking a lot more interest in it. so you're happy with the conservatives in power, are you?” feel a lot more confident with this government now than the old government. do you? yeah. 0k. what about yourself, rachel? not particularly. not particularly engaged? i feel strongly that any candidate that really has passion and determination to improve things for everyone. are you talking about your local candidates here in camborne and redruth or on the national stage? both to be honest. what issues are engaging you would you say, laura? ifeel nationally! supportjeremy you say, laura? ifeel nationally! support jeremyr mps that are running. i feel really passionate about the nhs, about education, community, socialist issues. don, tell us about the kind of people who use your foodbank and why you say camborne needs one? camborne needs one because it's in the top ten of the most deprived areas in europe. 2796 the most deprived areas in europe. 27% of the children live below food poverty in the area. we started a foodbank seven years ago now and it has just increased and increased. we are providing 10,000 meals a month out of our foodbanks. we're open every day. what kind of people do you see? there is a misconception sometimes about foodbanks. it's the people that don't want to work etcetera and benefit scroungers, but we're getting a lot of people that are actually working and cannot survive on their income. so you've had to open in the evenings so that you can give food out to people who work during the day? yes, we do. what kind of jobs work during the day? yes, we do. what kind ofjobs are those p

i want to make one thing very clear to jeremy corbyn and to you, there can never be an jeremy corbyn and to you, there can i'ievei’ be an excuse jeremy, there can never be an excuse for terrorism. no excuses never be an excuse for terrorism. no excuses for what happened in manchester. we are expecting to hear jeremy corbyn in this interview with andrew newell, what is he going to be expected to say? the focus on trident? yes. more evidence that politics is returning, andrew newell and these interviews back on. he spoke to theresa may on monday evening. then we had the suspension, during the course of the week. tonight, it isjeremy corbyn using half an hour of scrutiny on printing television from andrew newell. and the particular focus on the issue of the particular focus on the issue of the nuclear weapons system. and the reason we the nuclear weapons system. and the reason we had that focus, a contradiction at the heart of labour at the moment. the manifesto commits the party to the renewal of the trident system, butjeremy corbyn has been a lifelong opponent. this exchange, worth a watch. do you support the renewal of trident?m is t

jeremy corbyn event, leila nathoo. jeremy corbyn going on the offensive after the launch of the tory ma nifesto. after the launch of the tory manifesto. yes. you might be able to see behind me crowds of labour supporters outside, waiting for his arrival in peterborough were a business park attached to peterborough united football ground. jeremylderly in bedford. he has sensed the conservative party are vulnerable on theissue conservative party are vulnerable on the issue of pensioners given the announcement in their manifesto of ending the triple lock on pensions and the idea to means test of the winter fuel allowance. jeremy corbyn thinks this is an issue that labour can punch through on. john mcdonnell this morning released a poster talking about a triple whammy under the conservatives for pensioners. nowjeremy corbyn was asked about labour's plans for the elderly when he was visiting bedford earlier this morning. we will keep the winter fuel allowa nce, we will keep the winter fuel allowance, the triple lock. is not that she is being honest with people? she hasn't said what level and issues —— how going to change it. labour will keep winter fuel allowa nce it. labour will keep winter fuel allowance and it will be universal. peterborough is a key target seat for the labour party, conservative majority just over for the lab

trends say yes, if this happened it might bejeremy corbyn. say yes, if this happened it might be jeremy corbyn. is there anything less tha n be jeremy corbyn anything less than a landslide a defeat for theresa may? you're getting a lot of expectations, the regular polls did close quite a bit in their chance to work out what was causing that but you do as david will know, you get a lot of spin saying well, this is perhaps good for the conservatives because it focus peoples minds on the needs and not to be complacent and also talking about what sides a majority would be success and what of failure. i thinkjust remember where we are when theresa may called this. more than 50 i would say majority would be considered a failure to damage her prestige. the telegraph got interesting story about a secret plan for labour to increased migration. this is all about allowing unskilled workers to come into britain. now interviewers of all different tv stations have had a go atjeremy on this and try to pin him down on whether he would cut immigration or not. all he has ever said as it might come down a little, it might come down a little and of course the

yesterday, jeremy corbyn said, we are yesterday, jeremy corbyn said, we a re less yesterday, jeremy corbyner there, but you need to be a good human here, live your life here, get a good education here, and stop the focus on the middle east. you've done this interview anonymously because you worry about the backlash and your family? there's no for this justifying. people have been hurt and murdered. how did you feel about manchester? did the bridge building give you hope? yes, when there are past experiences, what happens when the cameras go away? we don't need tragedies like this to bring us together we need to be like that anyway. he said it would take more conversations, more integration and he believes that the muslim community should step up to notjust condemn these acts and say so but reach out also. former chief prosecutor for the north west, nazir afzal joins us now. just with your expertise and your former role, there's been a number of arrests but no charges. can you talk us through logistical arrangements happening bright now? the police arrested 11 people so far. there are certa

jeremy corbyn. u-turn. although it was a u-turn for jeremy corbyn. yes, 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, jeremybyn 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 not want the debate, and i do think he did that enough.” don't think you're giving him enough credit. i have been accused of that before. i thought he did quite well, especially after the

jeremy corbyn and labour chose not to. jeremy corbyn has a lwa ys chose not to. jeremyigned against europe for years so we should not be surprised. but we should be bitterly disappointed. labour are supposed to be... applause. labour are supposed to be the opposition but they have not post anything. they're opposition but they have not post anything. they‘ re supposed opposition but they have not post anything. they're supposed to stand up anything. they're supposed to stand upfor anything. they're supposed to stand up for working people but they have not stood up to anyone. they're supposed to care about our children's future but they're letting the conservatives wreck it. they have lost the right to call themselves the opposition. labour has lost its purpose. but we have found our purpose. the brighter future we want for all our children is at stake. 0ur future we want for all our children is at stake. our economy is at sta ke, is at stake. our economy is at stake, our schools and hospitals. this is about the future of the open, tolerant, united country that we love.

jeremy corbyn. .. campaign, we have learned one other thing about jeremy corbyn... proud and patriotic, working—class people in towns and cities across britain, have not deserted the labour party, jeremynorth—east of england and across the country have loyally given the labour party their allegiance for generations. i respect that. we respect that parents and grandparents taught their children and grandchildren that labour was a party that share their values and stood up for their community. but across the country today, traditional labour supporters are increasingly looking at what jeremy corbyn believes in and are appalled. we have learned from the shambolic league of his manifesto, that at the heart of his plan is a desire to go back to the economic socialist policies of the 1970s. labour voters are appalled because they see a leader who cannot lead, as shadow chancellor injohn leader who cannot lead, as shadow chancellor in john mcdonnell who cannot be trusted and a shadow home secretary like diane abbott who cannot add up. they see a party, that once believed in hard work are deserting those who aspire to a better life. a party that once stood for union of nations, now being led

jeremy corbyn in action. explain what was going on here. this was on sky news, the two leaders facing questions from the public and then from jeremy paxman. jeremy corbynhen 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 couple of interviews. the reason we are not having the bases because theresa may did not want to debate jeremy corbyn

jeremy corbyn has just announced people as an inhuman act. and jeremy corbyn hasjust announced he is people as an inhuman act. and jeremyontract does not include a break clause and will extend his reign to 23 years. attention turns to the summer tra nsfer attention turns to the summer transfer window with pressure on arsene wenger to spend with the club's backing. i understand they could spend as much as £150 million on transfers but they have to consider if they can pay the wages. arsenal ‘s wage bill is very high and the relatives flat. they are also out of the champions league so will they be able to attract players toa will they be able to attract players to a club playing in the europa league? arsenal need to win and spend this summer. the british and irish lions head coach warren gatland has admitted the schedule of their tour gatland has admitted the schedule of theirtour in gatland has admitted the schedule of their tour in new zealand is both difficult and tough. they flew into auckland overnight just three difficult and tough. they flew into auckland overnightjust three days before the first match against new

jeremy corbyn thi5 everything in politics. jeremy corbyn this week has made labour finally a tax and spend a hollick party which is what a lot of 5upporter5 party which is what a lot of supporters have wanted. whether it got through to the voters on the night of... there has been an uplift in the polls for labour. it could be getting through. monday is cut off day for voter registration. what do we know of the importance of turnout? it is absolutely vital. look what happened with brexit. it was such an enormous turnout and everybody was so engaged. 7296 turnout. turnout matters but we still have a problem with engaging with young voters and thatis with engaging with young voters and that is why labour and lib dems want 16 plus voters. if you analyse turnout, who turns out in terms of the demographic and the age can make a difference as to who polls well? ye5, a difference as to who polls well? yes, in some 5eat5, it can help you protect a seat or attack a seed. the youth vote in some university cities has a role. but there is an iron rule but young people aren't as interested in voting as older voters, unfortunately that has been so voters, unfortunately that has been so for so long. a lot of politicians wa nt so for so long. a lot of politicians want to change it, jeremy your time and being with us tonight. it has been a busy week. that is the end of the first week of the election wrap. i hope it has given you a flavour of what is to come. we will be back on monday. the same every night at 7:30pm and it gives you a sense of what has been going on. but here is a few things that gave us food for thought. feast your eyes on this. where you interested in politics when you are 16? no, just boys. if you don't read the manifesto, you don't know what they are going to do. what about you? hello, i am sorry to interrupt you, i know you are having your ice cream is. 216—year—olds eat a lot of cheese? surprising what they do eat. excellent. spent all the money... pack it in. ayew well? very good. this was sleaford. this has been seen across many this was sleaford. this has been seen across many parts of the country. towards the north—east, more persistent outbreaks of rain, so more persistent outbreaks of rain, so this was the scene in the afternoon. you can see

jeremy corbyn. but i don't think that's true. you think it should bejeremy corbyn. but i don't think that's true. you think it should be jeremy corbyn.“ it was him i'd be very proud. you think it is jeremyld be pleased. theresa may. isn't that interesting. when she came into office the people she said she wanted to help were just about managing. really? who does she think they are? because she might, again, it's all talk. talk's cheap. she will sit round this table with her cronies and her pals and her mps and they'll tell you they're just about managing with their two houses and 160 grand cars. that we're paying for. that we pay for. she says she wants to help us, why are you going to take the school dinners away then? that's contradicting yourself there. it seems in so many areas it's a race to the bottom, in the cuts, whether it be, i have a friend who is a taxi driver. uberhave come and almost demolished the black taxi drivers. it's a shame. people study. they have a profession. then all of a sudden, it's gone. what baffles me about this country is the tax system. i think they don't encourage people to work in this country. because the more you work, the more they tax. i just sit do

jeremy corbyn denies seniorfigures in this sort of attack. jeremy corbyn denies senior figures in the labour party are already accepting defeat in the general election. and victory for saracens as they win the european champions cup for the second year running. good evening. five nhs trusts are still experiencing serious problems, after yesterday's international cyber attack. 43 of the trusts affected in england and scotland, are now returning to normal. the attack on friday caused ambulances to be diverted, and numerous cancellations and delays in treatment, though a&e departments were not affected. the government's emergency committee cobra has been meeting, chaired by the home secretary amber rudd. here's our health editor, hugh pym. the news shocked staff and patients alike. the cyber attack shut down key systems. ron grimshaw won't forget it in a hurry. he was in the middle of having an mri scan but it was abruptly halted and he will have to go back another day. i was stunned, obviously stunned, and the nurse said this is the first time this has happened. i was thinking, why me? there we are. health secretaryjeremy hunt was at a meeting of the emergency cobra committee along with the home secretary, who denied there were weaknesses in nhs systems. i don't believe it is to do with being prepared. there is always more we can all do to make sure we are secure against viruses but i think there had already been good preparations in place by the nhs to make sure that they were ready for this sort of attack. in england, hospital and ambulance services have been affected at 48 nhs trusts along with some gp practices. in scotland, 11 out 01:14 health boards have felt the impact, including hospitals and gp surgeries. the scottish ambulance service was also affected. the nhs is very much in the recovery phase. there is a great deal of work ongoing to get systems back to normal and every effort is being made to ensure any impact on patient care is kept to a minimum. a small number of trusts are said to still need help coping with the aftermath of cyber attack. some ambulances are being diverted to other hospitals and getting the it system other hospitals and getting the it syste m u p other hospitals and getting the it system up and running again is proving to be a challenge. at york hospital, they say while they contained the virus it could take a while before they restore non—urgent services. 2,000 pcs have been taken out of commission. to get 2,000 pcs back in commission will take a few days but we will be working round—the—clock to do that as fast as we can. at wigan, staff have been working flat out to get systems up and running normally. i'm concerned because we don't know what we will find on monday morning. i think we've got sufficient understanding of the nature of the problem that we can be very confident we can solve whatever comes up on monday morning. most of the english trusts have restored their networks. emergency care is being provided across the nhs. but there could be more cancellations of routine surgery and appointments next week. in all, 99 countries across the world were affected by the cyber attack, which the eu's serious crime agency europol, described as unprecedented. here, investigators have promised to do everything they can, to catch those responsible, as our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford reports. the cyber attack which wreaked such chaos in britain's health service was a global assault, affecting russia worst of all but also countries as far apart as the us, australia, and japan. this evening, the two british agencies tackling it said a complex international investigation would be needed to catch the culprits. we haven't identified the offenders at this moment in time, but we are deploying all covert and overt means available to us, and we have a number of lines of enquiry. it is important that we pursue those quickly so we can reassure the public we are taking this very seriously. at the heart of this global cyber attack was a software worm which spreads itself from computer to computer using code originally designed by us government spy agencies. it is called wannacrypt, and simply encrypts all the files on the infected computer and demands a ransom. by last night at least, 75,000 computers had been infected in at least 7a countries. at that point, a cyber security expert managed almost by chance to stop it spreading. but all the data on the affected computers is still unusable until a ransom is paid. any modern computer that had its software regularly updated was safe, but some nhs trusts use old operating systems that were particularly vulnerable — others may have simply failed to take a security update in march. today, the national cyber security centre had this simple advice. the first is to make sure your security software patches are up to date. the second is to employ proper good anti—virus software. and the third — and most important for ransomware protection — is to back up your data, because you cannot be held to ransom if you have a back—up. it has been a reminder of how vulnerable vital organisations are to attack by organised criminals seeking to raise money or by hostile states and terrorist groups trying to cause maximum disruption. the reality is there are thousands of vulnerabilities. for example, if we were to look at a company of 50,000 computers, we might find hundreds of thousands of open vulnerabilities on those machines. it is also reminder that computers are not a one—off investment. they need to be kept up—to—date. daniel sandford, bbc news. jeremy some at the top of the labour party, are already accepting defeat in the general election. it follows comments from his deputy tom watson that the conservatives could be heading for a landslide victory. mr corbyn said both he and mr watson were ‘working flat out‘ to get labour elected onjune the eighth. meanwhile, the former labour prime minister, gordon brown, urged voters not to give theresa may "a blank cheque," to run the country. 0ur political correspondent ian watson reports. two big beasts, a former prime minister and a former deputy of prime minister entered the frame to claim the conservatives are waging a war on the you might expect him to say that the next labour government will stop this. but his emphasis is on holding theresa may to account. her britain will have more inequality and poverty than what we saw in the thatcher years. no conservative prime minister should ever be given a free hand. the deputy leader tom watson insisted he was determined to turn round labour's

government led by jeremy hard for a labour victory and a government led byjeremy corbyn. hard for a labour victory and a government led by jeremy corbyn. do you feel he is up to the job? jeremy to keep his job, but broadly this is a manifesto built in his image. this is his radical offered to you. you ma nifesto radical offered to you. you manifesto is the biggest hypothetical expansion of the state in many years, but how exactly what his ideas work? why in this ma nifesto his ideas work? why in this manifesto is there no scale and no ballpark figure for how much it might cost the public purse and how you are prepared to borrow and renationalise four major industries? you don't know what the share price is at the time we do it, the same in the case of rail, there is a neutral cost and i believe in the same for water and the bond issue. you have an promised to reverse all the tory welfare cuts, and for some of your supporters, that might be quite disappointing? —— you haven't promised. what i have said on the welfare cuts and the cat issue, we have set aside £2 billion to deal with the worst effects of the benefit cap which will help a lot. you are not reversing the whole thi

from jeremy corbyn's labour party today that labour led by jeremy corbyn would not be unequivocally committed to the trident nuclear deterrent, they would not be able to defend this country. a jeremy ajeremy corbyn lead labour government could not be trusted with the defence of our country. earlier i spoke to correspondent alex forsyth, who is with the premised on the campaign trail. theresa may has been in west london doing a very brief campaign speech at. she spoke to party activists for 34—macro minutes and the themes were very familiar territory, the big focus on leadership, i'm drawing parallels between her leadership thatjeremy corbyn's parallels between her leadership that jeremy corbyn's and parallels between her leadership thatjeremy corbyn's and wasted no opportunity to comment on what we have heard from labour about the pa rty‘s have heard from labour about the party's position on trident, because theresa may thinks that when it comes to defence and security she has the upper hand. but this area of west london voted to remain in the european union, so we heard from theresa may some language to try to cater to that when she said she understood that many people wanted to

jeremy corbyn. if it was himi churchill. jeremy corbyn. if it was him i would be pleased. theresa may. theresa may. isn't that interesting. she said that these were the people she wanted to help. really? who does she wanted to help. really? who does she think they are? talk is cheap, she'll sit round this dinner table with her cronies and they will tell you that they are just about managing with their two houses in their 160 grand cars that we are paying for! why are they taking the school dinners away then? that's contradicting yourself there, isn't it? it seems like a race to the bottom in so many areas. i got a friend who is an super taxi driver. i got a friend who is an uber taxi driver. the tax system discourages people from working because the more you work, the more they tax. when i sit down in my house, some people are ready to work but when you think about it, the tax doesn't feel fair. it doesn't feel fair. they should be in courage in people to work. if you wa nt in courage in people to work. if you want people to work, relax the tax. if you are trying to balance the books each month, do the right thing, working 55—60 hours per week, all of a sudden, you are worse off. it doesn't make sense. it's like quicksand. the more you try, the harder it is to make ends meet. you hearing anything from any of the leaders that makes you think, they kind of get it. —— are you hearing anything from any of the leaders?|j think anything from any of the leaders?” think the nationalisation of railways by jeremylways byjeremy corbyn is something good. every year, the fares have been going up, i can't get a seat and sometimes you couldn't even get on your train, in my head i used to think, ijust want this nationalised, and then it got privatised and it has gone down since. he reminds me of a normal person. he would sit around this table with us. i couldn't see myself eating fish and chips with theresa may but i could withjeremy corbyn. i could say to him, here is my spreadsheet. i would ask him how he could help me. i think his demeanour tells me that he would ask us how we wa nted tells me that he would ask us how we wanted things to be, so if labour came back in, i think for a start doing a might start asking a bit more. i don't think he has leadership credentials. i can't put my finger on it. don't you admire his honesty though? he is on his. he lives by a lot of the things he believes in. whether he's a good leader is another matter, but he lives by what he believes. is that the rights...

jeremy corbyn's supporters believe the electorate are tire tired of politics as usual. don't want to hear people giving out catch phrases, i want something different. that resonates to me and you know jeremy corbyn is a kind man and he is a decent and principled man. jeremyght to clarify his party's position on brexit, a subject the labour leader has little about and where labour have struggled to explain where they stand. the question now is what sort of brexit we want and what sort of country do we want britain to be after that. labour wants a jobs first brexit. a brexit that safeguards the future of britain's vital industries. many labour mps however fear from being the answer to labour's difficulties, mr corbyn is the problem. the fear while he may energise his supporters, he fails to connect with the wider electorate. whenjeremy when jeremy corbyn whenjeremy corbyn uses language like that, reckoning and words like that. what do people think? they believe events like brexit and donald trump's victory in the united states signal a mood of anger amongst many voters that global forces if you like are pressing down on their incomes, on theirjob prospects, that the politicians no longer listen to them and that there is an appetite for radical change which

jeremy corbyn. because you like and? he seems genuine. —— him?” jeremy corbyn. because you like and? he seems genuine. -- him? iwill just vote for whoever my family tells me too. even those don't feel passionately about the politics feel passionately about the politics feel passionately about the issues. -- to. education is something i am concerned about, cutting teachers and assistants, and you think what is going to be like when my daughter goes to school? inflation at the moment is ridiculous, to be honest. taxes are always going up, whereas the working wage is not far off what it used to be. immigration - everybody is moaning about it, but it isn't a big issue. it can be dealt with. the main is for the nhs, really. just a couple of miles away beneath the shadow of emley moor, the landscape of the dewsbury constituency changes dramatically. at the local craft group in the village of highburton it is the conservative leader who seems to be getting the most support.” conservative leader who seems to be getting the most support. i do that earl obvioum to a e.a.r.1 obvioum to a handle e.a.r.1 obvioum to - a handle on e.a.r.1 obvioum to - a handle on what the women e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she |andle on what the women e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she is idle on what the women e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she is a le on what the women e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she is a politician t the women e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she is a politician but a women e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she is a politician but she men e.a.r.1 obvioum to i she is a politician but she is en want. she is a politician but she is also an ordinary person. yeah. and you are not a fan ofjeremy corbyn? laughter i was really upset when he never sang the national anthem when he came in. i think that was really disrespectful to the queen. he is not a leader and i don't he has the experience theresa may has got. what are the issues for you? local issues are the issues for you? local issues are important. the fact that the health service has changed and the fa ct we health service has changed and the fact we are losing the hospital. the fa ct fact we are losing the hospital. the fact that we may lose a library in the area. the fact that they are wanting to build on what is supposed to be green dot. and you want to stick with a conservative government? i am not quite sure what the difference would be if i voted for labour. i feel think; 1 there there needs :there heedsfg :there needs? be m exist up here. realisation that we exist up here. of course, although many of these women might be voting conservative, the village they live in does have plenty of labour supporters. it seems this constituency really could go either way. and here is the list of candidates standing in the dewsbury constituency. the pulse of the labour party. len mccluskey. they said 200 seats would be seen as a victory, losing more than 30. today he says they could wind. what is going on? it is the usual len mccluskey dance. don't forget, trade union leaders are having to balance voting address. became close to being defeated a candidate they did not have much time forjeremy corbyn. he is having this cake and eating it. he is saying things and good. he says 200 seats. and to the left, he is saying the manifesto is great. what is important to remember about len mccluskey is he is a politician, and is acting like any other wood in his shoes. 200 seats. it is managing expectations. they always try to get it below what they think it will be so it below what they think it will be so when they get more it is good. len mccluskey thinks he will get more than 200 seat. —— seats. it will cost a fortune if he does not. do you feel the plant now, barring a wipeout, is forjeremy corbyn to stay? —— plan. wipeout, is forjeremy corbyn to stay? -- plan. there is no doubt in my mind. some believe they can turn it around and go on to win. but you do not give up the keys to the castle willingly, that is their line. i think people are underestimating him when he says 200. i would underestimating him when he says 200. iwould be underestimating him when he says 200. i would be worried if i was in the lead office and heard him say 200. i don't think they are on course to get 200 seats. the bottom line is the unions are the powerbrokers. is len mccluskey says, sorry, jeremy has even been described as his puppet master. he isa described as his puppet master. he is a big backer. if he loses len mccluskey, the sand will be shifting from underneath his feet. the conservatives. they are preparing to launch their manifesto. philip hammond has downplayed a rift between theresa may and her advisers. he said it was media tiddle—taddle. advisers. he said it was media tiddle-taddle. we work closely together. the prime minister and i have known each other for many yea rs. have known each other for many years. she has a strong team around her and years. she has a strong team around herandi years. she has a strong team around her and i have worked closely with them and have known them for many, many years. we do work very well together as a team. this is media tiddle—tattle. together as a team. this is media tiddle-tattle. sharp analysis here. there is no tiddle—tattle on the election wrap. but we have not seen borisjohnson election wrap. but we have not seen boris jo

applause well, it is really a no—brainer. would you rather havejeremy hunt as health secretary orjohn ashworth? i'm could take the vote if you like. john is absolutely fantastic. what he has done is called the tories appleton called them out on the cuts to social care, on the funding of mental health, and called them out on the sustainability and transformation plans whoever dreamt up transformation plans whoever dreamt up all of that, i wonderful that he has said quite rightly he will put a stop to all of that stuff it up your make sure there is a health service and not hospital there for everybody and not hospital there for everybody and every part of the country. john is leading us on health. applause and injohn you will have a health secretary who doesn't always look for somebody to blame, like you could lame the doctors for not working 20 hours a day, merely 18. all you could blame nurses, or you could blame staff. all you could blame people for being else that you could blame lots of people. john instead will make sure that the historic duty of our party, of a health service free at the point of use will be there and will be there for everybody to deal with health inequality and ensure we have the real security of knowing health social care and mental health is all of us. thank you for everything you do. —— is there for all of us. john is a great friends and comrades that he did ask me to be brief this morning he wants to get out on the doorstep campaigning this afternoon was that he said all of you who are free this afternoon, and that is all of you not going to see leicester this afternoon, you canjoinjohn on the doorstep. they you are. vote john ashworth. applause and will you sign it for my collection? there can be no doubt, my friends, that the local election results on thursday were disappointing for the party. but we had welcome victories in mantis to guide of wool, wales, doncaster and elsewhere. but too many fantastic councillors who work tirelessly for their communities lost their seats. we face a huge challenge in the next four and we face a huge challenge in the next fourand a bit we face a huge challenge in the next four and a bit weeks. this general election campaign is also an opportunity, a chance to breakfree, to create a society in which people are no longer held back by a system thatis are no longer held back by a system that is wreaked for the rich. a chance to rebuild britain for the many and not the few. applause there is also a huge danger that the tories them angry and spin machine will make some people settle for less tha n will make some people settle for less than they should, resigned themselves to things the way they are. underestimating just how many more burdens the tories could impose is their mission to break the system for the rich is not halted by us. the stakes are— stop we know from the election results yesterday that the election results yesterday that the gap between us and the tories is not as great as many of the pundits have been saying. but, we still have many people to convince, and we have four weeks to do that. are we up for the challenge? yes. are we there to do it? yes. many are sceptical and undecided, not sure which way to turn. you can blame them? think about this. andy burnham had a brilliant victory in greater manchester yesterday. he spoke last week of how alienating people are from the political system. he said, we can't just from the political system. he said, we can'tjust carry on doing what we are doing. the time has come to do something different. he is right. 0ur westminster system is broken and our economy is wreaked. both are run in the interests of the few good things can and must be different. —— of the few. labour is under attack. because we are standing up to elites who determined to hijack. hijack brexit to pay even less tax and take even more of the wealth that we all create. labour is under attack because we are standing up to the corporate interests, plundering our nhs. £13 billion of nhs budget is already privatised. how much more will be left if the tories get another five years of damaging our nhs? that is why we are under attack. we are drawing a line, a line under decades of privatisation from energy and rail to health and social care that has made some people very, very rich. but it has not delivered richer lives for the vast majority. in this election, we will be outlining a plan to transform britain. an upgraded economy, run for the many and not the few. it will mean standing up to powerful vested interests. but we are ready for the challenge, aren't we? applause the only time the conservatives stand up as when they are taking orders from their billionaire friends. they certainly stand up then. those people will ward their wealth. in reality it is our wealth in tax havens —— havens. theresa may think she can win the general election by claiming that she cares about working people. let's be kind. she talks about building a fair society. does she think people will forget what the tories have done to this country, how they have actually treated working people. this tory leader sat alongside david cameron in government for six years. she was in the cabinet room when they decided to introduce the bedroom tax. and so, for that matter, where the liberal democrats as part of that same coalition. what was fair about that? and what was fair about racking up tuition fees. taking benefits away from people with disabilities. enclosing shorts dashes by the sure start centres all starving schools of cash so they now have to have collections to pay the teachers and the teaching assistants, or opening up the nhs to be plundered by the robert is in the health and social care act. what was there about giving big business and there about giving big business and the richest in society tax giveaways worth tens of billions of pounds while the rest of us were told to tighten our belts and accept a big dose of austerity? the tories are hoping everyone has short memories. if that fails, they have another card to play. this election is about brexit and who can play at being toughest with brussels. but we will not allow the tories to put their party interests ahead of the real interests of the people of this country. this election is not about brexit itself. that issue was the subject of the referendum. this question is now, what sort of brexit do we want? what sort of country do we want to be in the future? who can really be trusted to put working people first? labour wants eight jobs brexit, trusted to put working people first? labour wants eightjobs brexit, a brexit that safeguards the future of britain's vital industries, a brexit that paves the way to a genuinely fairer society and an upgraded economy. labour's and to transform britain will mean investing in infrastructure and new industries, rebuilding our national health service, and our social care services, and our mental health services. applause giving our children and young people a chance to fulfil their potential. because we believe in children, all of them should get the same chance irrespective of the postcode where they were born. applause we won't be paying lip service to working people will stop we will introduce a comprehensive programme to strengthen rights at work, make sure newjobs are good jobs and an end to a race the bottom in pay, conditions and job security. low pay and insecurity are like an epidemic under the tories. we will invest in skills and jobs and take action to enforce a floor under employment standards across the board, so that alljobs are decentjobs, all workers, the true wealth creators in this country, can play their part in transforming britain for the benefit of all. that was jeremysts in leicester at the rally this afternoon that is here what the prime minister has been saying goes that she has been in wolverhampton in the west midlands where the party enjoyed success in the selection of the regional mag, winning narrowly over labour. let's see what her view is of the impact those local election results will have on the general election. i'm very grateful for the support we received in the local elections. here in the west midlands people now have a strong local champion in the new mayor, andy street. the question people now face in the general election is, who should lead the country for the next five years, me orjeremy corbyn? not a single vote has been passed in the election yet. none of the votes cast yesterday will count in the general election on the 8th ofjune in the minds of european politicians, there is not a mandate to take into the brexit negotiations. i'm taking nothing for granted in the next five weeks. i need support across the ice ‘s kingdom to

jeremy corbyn decided to turn up topic. jeremy corbyn decided to turn up even though theresa may did not make it. he said he wouldn't if she didn't turn up, but he came here and he debated with the others. did it make sense, was it worth it for him? his people believe, the more that the audience see him at the more they like him, they are convinced that there are newspapers against him and if he can get his message across directly to viewers without the media in between, it will work. that is why they put him out there today and he has looked more comfortable on the campaign trail. it was easier for him because he hasn't got a record to defend, but he was asked about immigration, that was interesting. many of his supporters previously at the last election ended up voting for brexit, and so there is a big discussion about immigration and whether labour wa nt about immigration and whether labour want the numbers to come down. he simply spoke about the contribution that immigrants have made to this country and he was also asked about security and terrorism, but because of the nature of the format, with seven people, it don't get a sustained attack on you unless you are the person representing the government. thanks. it wasn'tjust the bigger parties, we had plaid cymru and ukip and the green party, this is a very big stage for them to lay out their stall as far as the election is concerned. to talk to millions of people and get across their message. we have about seven days to go before the all—important day. back to you. thanks forjoining us. day. back to you. thanks forjoining us. and now sport. it was announced yesterday but today it became official — arsene wenger will be arsenal manager for two more years. tulsen tollett is at the bbc sport centre. a number of supporters wanted him gone, but what is the general reaction? quite good. he has been at the club now 21 years and he has done ever so well, and there was the period earlier in the year, the debate about arsene wenger, some of the fans wanted him to stay and some wa nted the fans wanted him to stay and some wanted him out, but they had a good finish to the season, culminating in the fa cup final victory over chelsea at the weekend. arsene wenger the only man to win the fa cup seven times. arsene wenger was incensed about what was said by some fans, but this is what he expects from the club in the coming weeks. what is the basic dna of the club, let's be together to support our players and to support the club and give absolutely altogether of our best to be at the level where we want to be. we can move up to the next level, i'm convinced of that. by having faith in the way we want to play and supporting the players we have already. and of course we will try to strengthen our squad, to be stronger next season. he talks about next season, they finished in fifth place and they are in the europa league and outside of the champions day for the first time under arsene wenger. —— champions day. —— champions league. under arsene wenger. —— champions day. -- champions league. thanks for joining us. margaret court is a legend of the tennis arena, having won 2a grand slam titles but now she's once again in hot water for making disparaging comments about homosexuality. in an interview with a christian radio station, court said tennis was now "full of lesbians" and that "homosexuality was a lust of the flesh, like adultery and fornication". she added that transgender children were the work of the devil. all this comes after court last week wrote an open letter to australia's national airline, qantas, saying she wouldn't fly with them because of their support for same sex marriage. many now say an arena in melbourne named after margaret court should be renamed. leading the charge anotherformer great — martina navratilova. this was the response of men's world number one andy murray to the recent comments. i hadn't heard anything about the arena changing name, so i'm not sure about that. i don't see why anyone has a problem with two people who love each other getting married, if it's two men, two women, that's great. i don't see why it should matter. it's not anyone else's business and everyone should have, in my opinion, the same rights. yeah, that's my view on it. i don't agree with it. sudden cardiac death is the biggest killer of athletes and sports stars. it can come completely out of the blue, with no prior symptoms. earlier this year we saw the death of tottenham hotspur‘s under 23 coach and former england international ugo ehiogu aged just 1m. and in 2012 bolton wanderer‘s midfielder fabrice muamba had to be revived after collapsing during a game. st george's hospital in london is a global leader in sports cardiology, and regularly puts elite athletes through their paces — under the guidance of renowned cardiologist professor sanjay sharma. i met the team and experienced for myself how they put hearts to the test. this is what you go through if you are an elite athlete being tested for any sign you might be likely to suffer from for any sign you might be likely to sufferfrom sudden for any sign you might be likely to suffer from sudden cardiac arrest. this is why the charity cardiac arrest in the young runs this lab. 12 deaths a week in the uk alone from cardiac arrest, sudden death, and if you think of the impact this

components of the deadly device himself. they are still looking for more clues about salman abedi's activities in the four days between his return from libya and the attack which left 22 people dead. manchester central mosque — one of the city's biggest — has said it will not bury him. meanwhile, preparations are under way for sunday's tribute concert, which will be headlined by ariana grande. old trafford cricket ground is being prepared for the concert, which will also feature coldplay, justin bieber, katy perry and take that. danny savage reports. on sunday evening 50,000 people who want to support manchester will be here at old trafford. the one love manchester concert will raise money for the families of the victims. the return of ariana grande is being praised by the organisers. the concert organiser admits he was worried this was happening too soon after the attack, but he is now happy with the plan. we consulted with the families that were bereaved and hospitalised through the gmp family liaison officers. and the overwhelming feedback from them was support. that we should do it and do it straightaway. everyone who went to the arena last week can go on sunday for free. this fan says that she will go, but she is worried. i'm not going to lie, i am nervous about going. i do get a bit sick to my stomach thinking about going. but it is about getting back into society and being around people, ithink, who are experiencing the same things that personally i am experiencing. 0rganisers acknowledge that some people who were at the original arena concert may feel overwhelmed when they get here on sunday. so specially trained counsellors will be on hand to help those who find it difficult. manchester's liam gallagher played a benefit gig in the city last night with 22 candles on the stage, one for each person who died. although it was left to the crowd to sing the song which has become an anthem after the attack. # don't look back in anger, i heard you say... and at the weekend the city will welcome back ariana grande with open arms. danny savage, bbc news, manchester. this is 0utside source live from the bbc newsroom. 0ur lead story is: afg hanistan's president has described a massive bomb attack in car ball as a crime against humanity. —— in kabul. the us has tested the strength of it's defence system — successfully shooting down a dummy ballistic missile — mid air. let me show you how they did it. here, at an airbase north of los angeles, the pentagon launched a rocket. it's job was to shoot down the fake ballistic missile which was launched from the marshall islands in the pacific ocean. that missile was designed to imitate the type of weapon north korea could fire — it was shot down over the ocean. the bbc‘s peter bowes has the story, from los angeles. 0n on display for everyone to see, the complex technology behind america's ground—based interceptor designed to halt a long—range missile in its tracks. the interceptor was launched from an air force base on the californian coast, its target was a mock up of an international ballistic missile, which was fired from an island in the pacific more than 4000 miles away. the operation was likened to a bullet hitting another bullet, though at far higher speeds, and it was a success and according to the director of the us missile defence agency it was an incredible accomplishment and a critical milestone. it demonstrated that america had a capable and credible deterrent against a very real threat. earlier this week north korea carried out its ninth ballistic missile test, officials said the interceptor test was not timed as a response to the increased tensions will vote north korea are facing growing isolation from the international community. united states will pursue an aggressive domestic campaign to isolate the regime in north korea and calls on all countries concerned about north korea's nuclear sabre rattling to join us in this effort. their growing ballistic missile threat puts a serious risk strategic stability around the globe and cannot go unchallenged. north korea has ramped up its weapons programme over the past year, with its successful interceptor test and more to come, america isn't showing it has the technology that could thwart an attack on its mainland. —— america is showing. i want to show you this map. it shows north korea's missile ranges. these green rings show how far the missiles that have been developed and tested so far can reach. this red line — which stretches over to the us is what the country's military is reportedly working on. we can go to washington. what do you make of this american test? we can go to washington. what do you make of this american test7m we can go to washington. what do you make of this american test? it is a big success, missile defence is something which has been criticised in the us because it is very expensive, and the technology is not deeply proven. it's not like other weapons which have been developed over the years that had been robust the tested. they don't get tested often, and this is a major step forward for us missile defence. it was the first time it was intercepted outside of the atmosphere and us officials say that this is a big step and could prove a big deterrent in keeping the us safe at least until 2020. big deterrent in keeping the us safe at least until2020. how big deterrent in keeping the us safe at least until 2020. how difficult is the technology to develop? it has been described as two bullets hitting each other midair. that is exactly right. i was talking to one of the companies that makes this missile interceptor and they said thatis missile interceptor and they said that is not even showing exactly how difficult it is because these missiles are moving at thousands of miles per hour and the intercepts are happening thousands of miles away from where the missile was launched and where the interceptor is launched. the us says this is preplanned and not a direct response to what north korea has been doing. there have been ninth ballistic missile tests by north korea.|j there have been ninth ballistic missile tests by north korea. i was at the pentagon this morning when the director of the missile defence agency gave his briefing and i will tell you, he used north korea and iran by name several times in the briefing, something that pentagon officials tend to be hesitant to do, they usually just say officials tend to be hesitant to do, they usuallyjust say it is about they usuallyjust say it is about the threat or the threat that is out there, alluding to something like russia, china, north korea, but he actually called them out by name. they wanted north korea to know this system has been tested and validated and it works. what do you think the response will be from north korea? as we have seen in recent weeks and months, they have been firing off many rockets, the last one on the 14th of may, into the atmosphere and back. by all accounts there has been no sign of kim jong—un hacking back. by all accounts there has been no sign of kimjong—un hacking down and he is continuing to test missiles and so it is a wait and see —— backing down. we will see what his responses. does that make you concerned? that this is repeated ignoring of the united nations resolutions, and they are continuing to carry out this test. it is a huge concern to the military and they are co nsta ntly concern to the military and they are constantly talking about this. james mattis a couple of weeks ago, he said he was very concerned about the devastation north korea could bring to say, south korea, so we have got to say, south korea, so we have got to wait and see if they start testing again. and then see what the us response is, whether it makes an example of another type of test just like this. we are out of time. thanks forjoining us. i don't know if you have fallen asleep while with a phone in your hand, but this happened with donald trump, and it seems the president fell asleep while he was in the middle of typing something on twitter and it has created something ofa twitter and it has created something of a sensation. a lot of people are trying to figure out the true meaning of that word. thanks for watching. good evening. nothing exceptional, and most places have seen 75—90% of their normal amounts of rainfall, and there is rain on the way for the first day of summer, thanks to this area of low pressure to the north west of the uk, with these weather fronts. it will start off in northern ireland bringing some rain and a bit of a breeze, and into the western side of scotland. but the grey start for some parts of england and wales, especially in the south, but that will burn away and there be sunshine coming through, and it will be a warm afternoon, 26 in the south—eastern corner. low 20s quite widely, but something fresher behind. fairly slow—moving feature, slowly working its way across scotland, and then we see ripples on the weather front and that will slow its progress but eventually it will make its way to the south—eastern corner. as we had to friday, warm airover corner. as we had to friday, warm air over the southern half and it will be a very warm day, while turning fresher from the north and west. that is the weather front, some parts of england and wales, but the rain could be quite heavy. it will turn very warm indeed, 27, that could spark thunderstorms. mixture of sunny spells and scattering of showers at the weekend. the westerly winds starts to get in over the uk and that will bring a fresher feel. chance of thunderstorms and the weather front bushes that across towards the near continent and we are with the westerly winds, still in the low 20s in the south—east, but most places will be in the upper teens. saturday night into sunday, westerly winds from the atlantic, areas of low pressure, not far from the uk, it will be a breezy day on sunday, nothing untoward in terms of the strength of the win, but there will be a fair bit of ground. most of the showers in the west. most places will be in the upper teens, maybe the low 20s. the early part of next week, low pressure in charge of the weather, and further areas of low pressure lurking in the atlantic heading our way, it looks fairly u nsettled. heading our way, it looks fairly unsettled. monday will be a breezy day. showers coming from the west on that breeze, and again temperatures will be in the middle to upper teens. and then into the early part of the week, through tuesday, we have the next area of low pressure coming our way, that will bring wind and rain. unsettled look. high pressure is still lingering across the near continent and that will just about insert its influence. as we head to the latter part of next week. the low pressure system will be pushing its way across the north west of the uk. those systems are driven by the jet stream which is marking its way to the north. next week, it is a north south split. it will be dry and warm in the south, but that might spark off some thunderstorms. tonight at ten: we're in cambridge where one of the biggest debates of this election campaign has just taken place, with exchanges on immigration, security and the future of public services. the debate included labour's jeremyr rudd. some of the clashes were over stagnating wages 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? have you seen... applause. ijust have to take on some ofjeremy corbyn's fantasy economics. i mean, he has this money tree wish list in his manifesto. and 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.

jeremy corbyn. the one show will have ongoing coverage of the election. including jeremy corbyn. there is confusion over the labour policy on brexit. jeremye was settled. speaking to laura kunz burke, he repeatedly said that labour would take them out of the european union. jeremy corbyn! a showbiz introduction. labour has had more drama in 18 months than some parties do in a decade. but he is on the main stage now. so are you ready for his lines? the economy is still rigged in favour of the rich and powerful. when labour wins, there will be a reckoning for those who thought they could get away with asset stripping our industry, crashing our economy through their greed and ripping off workers and consumers. a dramatic call in front of his shiny new battle bus, but since he has been in charge, labour has gone backwards. we have four weeks to ruin their party. to have a chance to take our wealth back. we must seize that chance today and every day untiljune the 8th. he has brought multitudes of new members, but what about the mainstream ? you said rather dramatically there would be a reckoning if you become prime minister. a reckoning does n

jeremy corbyn. there is i'io public then jeremy corbyn. there is no significant shift as far as i have seen on those indicators. it is worth pointing out in another 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 intending to do. 0r how serious it is. will it lead to tens of thousands or is it eight—week? we don't know, the m essa 9 es eight—week? we don't know, the messages labour are soft on immigration. i can see a change in... not the time but the subject matter of the election here. we had this break with tragic events in manchester, which stopped campaigning. what we also know from the polls is attacking jeremy leadership and past consorting with terrorists, not having the slightest bit of impact. they seem to go for areas where it does work. you may see labour going for the nhs more. 2596 see labour going for the nhs more. 25% of people put it as a top issue. immigration is a top issue with brexit. we will hear the conservatives talking a lot about brexit and immigration. speaking of the nhs, that queues up nicely the i newspaper. they havejeremy hunt saying that it bad brexit will damage the nhs? i do not think it is a planned intervention, the i newspaper reporter doorstep and said, what about the nhs? the response was if you want a strong nhs you need a strong conservative party. i don't think this is a concerted effort to say to vote for the conservatives to protect the nhs. we all know the nhs is strong. everyone associates labour with being the party of the nhs. i think jeremy hunt is effectively saying something he has to say within his brief. i don't think it is particularly calcula

jeremy it is good to see you, joe. interesting thejeremy corbyn decided he wanted to turn up tonight. —— from you gava. did jeremy corbyn turn up? there was very little from today that will resonate over the next few days, which is what you want if you're coming to these debates. you want something to go viral, in modern islands. you want a line that will resonate, not just tonight, islands. you want a line that will resonate, notjust tonight, notjust on the news tonight but over the next few days. my impression was that there was not really anything coming out from tonight that will do that. jeremy but i don't think anybody who was present actually made a mistake. if a story comes out it will be about the absence of theresa may. but i do not think that any of this will have a long—lasting effect on the poll ratings for anyone or any of the parties. so no discernible hit on the polls. it made sense in theresa may's opinion to not be here? with these things, it isa to not be here? with these things, it is a debate between what is to win and what is to lose and a you are the prime minister, everyone can turn on you and you have more to lose than gain. you are directed to defend that nobody else does, so it places you in a difficult position. ifi places you in a difficult position. if i was a conservative strategist i would agree that staying away was the right thing but i do not think they will take a massive hit tonight. i feel like a bit of video you'll tonight, as seen from left to right. let's get a final thought with our chief political correspondent, vicki young. an interesti

corbyn unleashed, unvarnished, the real jeremy corbyn. and that is deliberate because his people believe, actually, jeremy corbyn is a big vote winner for labourke this sort of authenticjeremy corbyn. so, we had to use rhetoric you might not normally expect from a labour politician, talking about a reckoning, a reckoning for unscrupulous bosses, asset strippers, greedy bankers, media barons, the sort of language and labour politicians in the past have tended to shy away from for fear of alienating voters. mr corbyn‘s team ta ke alienating voters. mr corbyn‘s team take the opposite view, they think this is not just take the opposite view, they think this is notjust about energising, it is about resonating with voters who respond more broadly to a man willing to tell it as he sees it. joining me is sarah champion, the shadow minister, and that is the approach, but isn‘t there a risk voters find this language about a reckoning for the rich, they find that language rather out of date?|j don't that language rather out of date?” don't think so. come to rotherham, when i go around doorknocking, as i go through the door, there is no carpet, no wallpap

jeremy corbyn saying the war on terror is not working?” jeremy corbyn saying the war on terror is not working? i don't want to focus on jeremys, al-qaeda said for many years, which is it is actually about us, that our beliefs versus their beliefs. they have clear believes in a radical islamist system, they wish for those believes to be universal, they think that our way of life is decadent, they wish to punish us, to subvert what we do in their way instead and that is why they are attacking us, they are pretty open about this. propaganda magazines come out all the time from isis that explain the list of reasons and it is true that foreign policy is at the bottom but they are open about it, it is not the main issue. even if foreign policy was not there, they said they would still attack because we are not muslim, but their form of muslim, and frank is right to suggest that isis does not represent the middle east and it does not represent any number of muslims in this, it is a small section of the muslim population, but it is, crucially, linked to a religious ideology.” but it is, crucially, linked to a religious ideology. i w

jeremy corbyn said he didn't turn up toa jeremy corbyn said he didn't turn up to a poster launch this morning, and one of the questions was why was it leaked? one of the questions was why was it leaked ? it one of the questions was why was it leaked? it undermines the discipline within the party and suggests either the more radical element wanted to get their undeleted ideas out there or somebody opposed tojeremy corbyn wa nted or somebody opposed tojeremy corbyn wanted to show him up. we don't know which one. the polls are showing that the conservatives still have a clear lead over the labour party with the liberal democrats following. those polls are not changing much at the moment, are they? no, they are not, but they really do matter. they matter in terms of what kind of lead theresa may will, one with —— come away with if she wins this election. of course any party could win the election but the polls were similar place when she called the election. so why did she called the election. so why did she called the election. so why did she call it? so she could increase her majority. we had the local elections. our greatest litmus test, if you like, and the conservatives made good progress in england, they started making progress in scotland. they came up against strong labour support in wales, and so it really isn't clear whether they can do it but the polls last week showed they could come away with a landslide. one secret weapon for theresa may, ukip were pretty much wiped out at ukip were pretty much wiped outat, local elections. if all the ukip the local elections. if all the ukip votes went to the conservatives, and they are both now trying to be the party for the leave votes in the uk, the conservatives would get about 57 extra seats, so that could be their secret weapon. mark, thank you. another thing i should mention, because of the first past the post system, the polling doesn't necessarily translate to representation in parliament. you can geta representation in parliament. you can get a full explanation of how that works on our website. all week, we have been reflecting on the release of 82 chibok schoolgirls. once released they were flown from banki near the border with cameroon — to maiduguri and then to the capital abuja. and there, they met the president. most of them have yet to be reunited with their families back in chibok. you might have expected them to be so you might have expected them to be so by now but it hasn't happened yet for a variety of practical reasons in many cases. but next, i've an interview with one man who has been reunited with his daughter. he's yakubu nkeke, head of the chibok parent's association — and he's been talking to alastiar leithead. when i first heard and i saw her, shejumped when i first heard and i saw her, she jumped and grabbed when i first heard and i saw her, shejumped and grabbed me, i held her and started dancing around with her. she's not the only one because there are my brothers daughters. in my family, there were seven. everybody in chibok, they all rejoice, not only the biological pa rents. rejoice, not only the biological parents. everybody rejoices because they are rescued. what will happen next? they will be brought to chibok by our council chairman and he will give me photographs to make identification for the parents so they can see their daughters. for example, some of them. see another one. when i reached abuja, the minister gave me the list. they got it from the girls. so i compiled my register, there is no mistake, and i went to the girls and i confirmed, asking one after the other, and they told me exactly and i made good identification. what will the reaction be in chibok to the news? it isa reaction be in chibok to the news? it is a wonderful day. everybody is trooping into my house. even today, you will see them. many parents will come. what about the 22 girls, the 21 plus, are they all well? they are fine. they continued their education. every month, three of us paid a visit to them and their pa rents paid a visit to them and their parents as well. what we are planning now, by september, we hope they will be distributed to different schools to carry on their education. when the news of this 82, they spent the whole night singing, praising god. what do they tell you about the time living under boko haram? sometimes, they cannot even have a meal. there are some of them, those that have been given in marriage, but according to them, it is not forceful. it is when you decide to marry with them. what do you think of these boko haram fighters who kidnapped your girls? the boko haram fighters, iforget them. iam the boko haram fighters, iforget them. i am a christian, iforgave them. i am a christian, iforgave them. for listening to the nigerian government, for making a release of these girls, they are human beings too. do you think the negotiations will continue and the rest of the girls will be released? through the process they are going through now, i know by god ‘s grace, they will be released. a remarkable man. you can see that interview on the bbc news app. a few minutes ago we were talking about the semifinals of the europa league. first of all, it is now 11 in their majesty united match. as it stands, manchester united go through to the final, but one more goal, and so to the go—go three. to make it more interesting, they have both just had a player sent off. lyon only need one goal to ta ke sent off. lyon only need one goal to take that match into extra time now as well. you can follow both games through the bbc sports up now. it is the live page and you can watch that. that's all from me. goodbye. it's been dry across vast swathes of the united kingdom for quite some time, particularly across northern parts of england today, where we saw this beautiful photo. however, we are starting to see some rain coming into southern parts, which is moving ever northwards on quite a humid strea m ever northwards on quite a humid stream of air ever northwards on quite a humid stream ofaircoming ever northwards on quite a humid stream of air coming in from the near continent. that humid air will be with us for the coming couple of days, bringing with it clout in the sky and showers dotted around which could be high with the odd rumble of thunder. eastern scotland looks pretty grey and cool. only 9 degrees. temperatures will be much higherfurther degrees. temperatures will be much higher further west. across england and wales there will be a good rash of showers through the afternoon and they could be the odd rumble of thunder to go with that. a fairly humid feel to things for many with warmer temperatures as well. some of the showers in the south—west, quite sharp, but those in the south—east look like they tend to fade away through the evening. it will be a fairly warm night foremost, with temperatures in double figures. certainly in the mild side at least. going into saturday, it looks like it stay fairly settled —— fairly u nsettled. it stay fairly settled —— fairly unsettled. in the north—west on saturday, quite cloudy and breezy with outbreaks of rain. as you work your way down to the south—east corner, fewer in the way of showers with lots of dry, bright weather and sunshine. 18 or 19 degrees in the south—eastern corner. 15 or so for glasgow and belfast. saturday night into sunday, this weather system is its way across pretty much all parts of the united kingdom. behind that, you get this fresh air coming in from the atlantic. while there will bea from the atlantic. while there will be a day of sunny spells and showers, temperatures will be lower, so showers, temperatures will be lower, soa showers, temperatures will be lower, so a fresh appeal to things with the humidity gone. looking out to the atla ntic humidity gone. looking out to the atlantic for further weather systems to spread their way in, you can see the isobars to spread their way in, you can see the isoba rs mean to spread their way in, you can see the isobars mean it will be a windy day on monday. they could be quite a bit of rain pushing into wales, northern england, northern ireland and scotland. it looks like the south—east were just about avoided. temperatures are about 17 or 18 here. monday into tuesday, the ice above is a part of it so the wind eased down as the weather permits its way south across the country. i've decided that, it looks fine and dry. it could turn quite warm, maybe even a few degrees higher than 22. there was low pressure towards the north—west of the uk and whether france associated with that are likely to bring some rain. that will slip its way southward and eastwards. we start to see high pressure building in, with the resulta nt pressure building in, with the resultant wins coming in from the north. as we get into next weekend, we see things turning a good deal cooler with rain at times that could be quite heavy. it could be breezy and for some, those wins could be quite strong, particularly in the north—west. tonight at ten: labour's election manifesto is formally approved by the party leadership and will be published within days. after a four—hour meeting, jeremyy popular". the likely offer to voters includes nationalising the entire rail network and abolishing university tuition fees in england. an offer that will transform the lives of many people in our society and ensure that we have a government in britain, onjune 8th, that will work for the many, not the few. but earlier mr corbyn had failed to attend labour's big poster launch, amid confusion over a leaked version of the labour manifesto. we'll be looking at some of labour's policies in more detail and we'll be talking to voters in york.

we have also heard from the main opposition leader, jeremy corbyn, who is tweeted. .. —— has. leader, jeremy corbynn andrews. he was right at the front near the explosion. yeah, a loud bang, a big one. it was just a huge sound in the left—hand corner. and obviously, as we came out, and came out of the tunnel, to come out of the building, all the emergency services were on the street, you could hear the sirens, and then obviously when we got in the car to leave, we heard the awful news that people have actually died there tonight. people come right at the back. that is why was purposely done their collectors that is where people are becoming out. and it would have been coming out there then? yes, they would be in peak time, about five minutes after she finished. and you mentioned that people were saying there were different reasons, they won't entirely sure what the noise had come from at the time. but they we re had come from at the time. but they were just had come from at the time. but they werejust running had come from at the time. but they were just running as fast as they could. yes, i heard

south wales and was asked for his reaction to jeremy corbyn's plans.” and was asked for his reaction to jeremy corbyn's plans. i am worried about the things jeremy be firm, we have to support nato and we have to have to support nato and we have to have a very robust response to terrorism. jeremy corbyn has campaigned all his life to weaken the uk's defences. he thinks that nato is nonsense. i think he is still the chair of the campaign for nuclear disarmament. i find it alarming that just last nuclear disarmament. i find it alarming thatjust last month, when we sent enhanced presence to shore up we sent enhanced presence to shore up ourfriends we sent enhanced presence to shore up our friends in we sent enhanced presence to shore up ourfriends in the baltics, uk troops went to estonia, he said that was escalation of tension. what this country needs is a strong, clear, robust approach to defences, and i'm afraid jeremy corbyn's approach is chaotic and offers the reverse. borisjohnson chaotic and offers the reverse. boris johnson saying chaotic and offers the reverse. borisjohnson saying he is genuinely alarmed byjeremy corbyn's foreign policy app

we have seen yet again from jeremy corbyn's labour party today that a labour government led by jeremy corbynnuclear deterrent. they would not be able to defend this country. theresa may has made so much of this campaign about leadership qualities. she wants to keep it that way. but now the parties have publish their ma nifestos, parties have publish their manifestos, there's also policy to pick over. and not everyone agrees with some tory protesters proposals. but there are rumblings in the tory party for changes in social care. elections can lay their divisions across the board. the liberal democrats have unveiled their latest election poster. it's a picture of nigel farage's face, superimposed onto the head and shoulders of theresa may. former business secretary and lib dem candidate sir vince cable said it represented how conservatives had adopted wholesale policies from ukip. dozens of the schoolgirls who were kidnapped from the nigerian town of chibok three years ago have been reunited with their families. the girls were released earlier this month as part of a deal between the nigerian

jeremy corbyn was not ready to govern oi’ jeremy corbyn was not ready to govern or delete. she raised the issue of his reluctance to use nuclear weapons for example, that he associated and supported people who wa nted associated and supported people who wanted to attack our country. not holding back wanting to make this all about leadership but also brexit. she is in wolverhampton where many people including former labour voters of course voted for brexit, she is appealing directly for them, saying she is the only person who can deliver on all of that and that their views in the past have been very much ignored. for labour they want to get back on theissue for labour they want to get back on the issue of public services and funding, they think the tories are shaky on all of this so an eye—catching policy today talking about more free childcare for two —year—olds, butjeremy corbyn unable to remember how much it would cost. these elections are not a memory test in any way but confidence is important and labour test in any way but confidence is importantand labourare test in any way but confidence is important and labour are now in the past people maybe have not trusted them with the country's finances and this will not have helped. the scottish national party has launched its manifesto for the general election, promising to reverse cuts in welfare and to boost public sector pay. speaking in perth, the party leader nicola sturgeon said scotland should have a say in its own future — and called for a second independence referendum "at the end of the brexit process". steven godden reports. if you hate a tory traitor clap your hands. manifesto launch in a city where the snp face one of their toughest challenges, political rivals outside the venue, inside nicola sturgeon set out her party ‘s alternative on brexit, independence and austerity. the fact is we cannot afford a tory government with a free hand to do whatever it likes. we must have strong voice says, standing upfor our must have strong voice says, standing up for our interests and defending the values we hold dear. in policy terms that includes freeing up an extra £118 billion to invest in public services, support for a invest in public services, support fora uk invest in public services, support for a uk wide 50p tax rate, something the snp chose not to pursue in government that hollywood. a living wage climbing behind —— about £10 an hour and action on welfare. snp mps will stand against all of the further planned cuts to social security. and we will do so because they punish the disabled and those who work hard to make ends meet. the manifesto also pledges to protect the pensions triple lock, calls for all immigration powers to be devolved and seeks a cross—party coalition to scrap trident. 0n brexit snp success would, says nicola sturgeon, demand a seat at the negotiating table and reinforce a mandate for a second independence referendum. that is why i believe so strongly that at the end of the brexit process, not now, but when the terms of the deal are known, scotla nd the terms of the deal are known, scotland must have a choice about oui’ scotland must have a choice about our future. scotland must have a choice about ourfuture. a choice between following the uk down the brexit path or becoming an independent country. with nicola sturgeon predicting a conservative victory this is not a manifesto to govern but to secure the votes which would maintain snp's dominance in scotland, an argument they say should bring influence on key areas of policy. the voters have nine days to consider its contents before going to the polls. 0ur assistant political editor norman smith is in perth. norman, one would imagine scottish independence would be central to this manifesto but that's not the case. it was not quite a case of don't mention the independence referendum but it was striking, independence is the lifeblood of the snp yet in the manifesto it was almost relegated to the margins, point number ten on their ten point list of pledges. nicola sturgeon almost seemed to leave open the option in her speech of maybe a second referendum being pushed back beyond her proposed timetable by the spring of 2019 depending now on when the brexit process was complete. snp people say it's nonsense, they are not getting cold feet about an independence referendum, but simply it's the fact they already have a mandate from the previous election and the scottish parliament has already voted for a second independence referendum. but you sense they are wary of frightening off voters who are apprehensive about the possible break—up of the uk. similarlyi about the possible break—up of the uk. similarly i think they have maybe been bruised by some of the accusations they have been too focused on independence and not paid enough attention to core domestic issues like schools and the health service so this document at its heart is all about reversing tory austerity, ending the freeze on benefits, ending the public sector pay cap, raising the living wage. when nicola sturgeon was asked how she would do that she suggested theresa may could backtrack because she has become the queen of u—turns. norman, many thanks. norman smith there. and we'll be taking a closer look at the policies and costings in the snp manifesto with our reality check team later in the programme. tributes have been paid to a zoo—keeper who was attacked and killed by a tiger. rosa king — who was 33 — has been described as the "shining light" of hamerton zoo park in cambridgeshire. she died yesterday after a tiger entered the enclosure she was in. ben ando is there. an investigation is underway here but at its heart is a relatively simple question, how did an experienced zookeeper at a well—regarded wildlife park come to be in an enclosed space with a deadly predator? meanwhile tributes have been paid to rosa king by her family and friends, one of whom said she was someone around him things revolved here at hamilton park zoo. we do wedoa we do a lot of work... we do a lot of work. .. rosa king had a lwa ys we do a lot of work. .. rosa king had always loved animals. and according to those who knew her was passionate about their welfare and protection. but yesterday while she was doing thejob she lodged but yesterday while she was doing the job she lodged at hamerton zoo park one of the tigers in her care attacked and killed her. today friends and family paid tribute to the 33—year—old keeper who had an affinity for cheaters but loved all the big cats. in a statement her mother andrea said... now an investigation is underway, the police have said there are no suspicious circumstances but zoo managers will want to know how tiger got into the enclosure where she was working and in just got into the enclosure where she was working and injust a got into the enclosure where she was working and in just a few seconds turned off on bank holiday into a tragedy. experts warn that whether in captivity are not tigers are wild and potentially dangerous animals. under normal circumstances there should be no reason for a keeper and a predator such as a tiger to be in the same enclosure at the same time. the only exception to that would be if the animal has been sedated so it can undergo a veteran of a procedure or similar. but there should be no reason for a conscious predator to be in the same space as a keeper. but some animal welfare campaigners say keeping wild animals in captivity is just wrong. taking say keeping wild animals in captivity isjust wrong. taking a child to a zoo for the first time of course there will be the wind factor, why wouldn't there be when they see a tiger for the first time or they see a tiger for the first time oran they see a tiger for the first time or an elephant for the first time? but after that you have to ask what is the educational benefit of seeing that same animal in that same space doing the same thing day in and day out? four years ago another keeper was killed by acer match and tiger at this zoo in cumbria. the park was later fined £250,000 at this zoo in cumbria. the park was laterfined £250,000 health and safety breaches. zoo managers have described the death of rosa king as a freak accident but alongside the shock and grief there is a need to find out what went wrong and why. the zoo has not identified which particular tiger was involved in this but says the animal is unharmed and says it will update everyone on its investigation as soon as it possibly can. meanwhile, the police say they have closed their enquiry because they have determined there we re because they have determined there were no suspicious circumstances, they will pass on their findings to they will pass on their findings to the local authority responsible for licensing the zoo and they may then determine whether there should be anyissues determine whether there should be any issues or prosecution around health and safety matters. manchester victoria station has reopened, a week after the suicide bombing that killed 22 people. the station, which is attached to manchester arena, had been closed for repairs, and to allow police to search it. last night, people held a vigil in st ann's square, to mark the moment when the attack happened. a week ago at this time, people were just dealing with the trauma of the awful events of the night before. for many, they have not moved on far from that point. 17 people are being treated for more serious injuries. although places like this have reopened today, it is a scratch below the surface for so many people. the bombing attack is still at the forefront of their mind. at 5am this morning, victoria station in manchester was quietly reopened after a short ceremony. the station adjoins the manchester arena, which had been sealed off as a crime scene for days after the staff here were some of the first to help the victims. my staff ran to site, provided first aid and comfort to those in need and they stayed there against the instructions of the police, for several hours, providing that first care and attention that people really needed, so i'm incredibly proud of that. up there is where the blast happened, so although the concourse to the platforms are open again, there are still obvious signs of the attack. with large metal screens across the access points to the arena. some people paused to look at the messages. passing through here is emotional. it's just so nice that people care, really, about us. it's sad and i think it will take the city along time to get over it. very weird, very surreal, still upsetting. it's also quite eerie to think so many people lost their lives here last monday. it's quite shocking. last night, thousands of people gathered in the city centre at the exact time the bomb went off a week earlier. behind—the—scenes, the huge investigation continues. police are asking two key questions to the public at the moment. did anyone see salman abedi with a blue suitcase in the city and where there is it now? they also want to know where he was in the five days running up to the attack. this is believed to be him in a city centre convenience store the day before the bombing. 0n the right is an image of him released by police. life is going on around the manchester arena, but what happened here is still preoccupying people. there are fewer officers on the streets now but this is a city that is a long way from returning to normal. and this morning, ian hopkins, the chief constable of greater manchester please did an interview with bbc radio manchester answering listener's on. one was, 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

jeremy corbyn and the labour party wa nt jeremy corbyn and the labour party want uncontrolled migration. enter next the proudly 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'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 complete surprise. mr corbyn has said that he won't turn up corbyn has said that he won't turn up if theresa may does not turn up, but now in this last—minute change of heart, which i think reflects the growing confidence in the corbyn camp about their campaign, it is almost a sort of act of political jujitsu, throwing theresa may onto the defensive with a last—minute surprise manoeuvre. and in this live television question and answer session withjeremy television question and answer session with jeremy paxman television question and answer session withjeremy paxman earlier this week, they believe thatjeremy corbyn came out on top. he was under pressure for some of his views but they felt that the audienc

jeremy corbyn's vision, which he wa nts to jeremy corbyn's vision, which he wants to put forward to the people. and of course, there will be millions of people who have never had the chance to vote on this kind of thing. if you are under 50, you would never have been offered a programme of this nature, and as you say, there are some big ideas in there, but of course, there will be a lot of questions about the casting. labour figures insist a lot of questions about the casting. labourfigures insist it will be carefully costed. they haven't given us those figures yet, but of course, the tories have seized on all of this, saying it will cost billions and billions of pounds. now, there are dozens of people in that room today who have to sign off this draft manifesto, go through it, and see how many tweaks or changes they make. this is what some had to say as they arrived. what do you think of the manifesto? are you embarrassed by the league? —— the leak? are you embarrassed tee are you happy to stand on this left—wing ma nifesto ? is this a manifesto you will be proud? i won't be unhappy. the process that we go through will be arrived at by democratic decision, and i will support that. are you embarrassed by this leak? iam not are you embarrassed by this leak? i am not embarrassed by anything, andi i am not embarrassed by anything, and i have nothing to say, thank you very much. are you responsible for the league? 0h, are you responsible for the league? oh, don't be silly. margaret beckett, on her way in. so this meeting will go on for a couple of hours, and then we may see the final product at some point. we have had a clue about how some of this will be funded — higher taxes for the top 5%, and others have suggested there might even be a wealth tax, but they do insist that it will be fully costed. i suppose the question is, as we heard there, some people will find this programme incredibly exciting. this, they say, is worth doing if you are in charge of the labour party, you arejeremy corbyn, there is no point watering down with you think. he has a vision for the future, and wants to be tipped forward to be bought. there is, however, a question of how many people it will appeal to across the country, and there are many labour mps who doubt that this kind of thing will win across people who, in the past, maybe have voted conservative, for example. this is what the mp ben bradshaw, the former mp ben bradshaw, the candidate in exeter, had to say today. he is someone who has been incredibly critical of mr corbyn of the last couple of years. what is your reaction to the labour ma nifesto, what is your reaction to the labour manifesto, ben? i have got my own exeter manifesto. do you supported ? i support my exeter manifesto? del rey manifesto. what about the national manifesto? lets get real, the tories at 20 points out in the polls. it is their ma nifesto points out in the polls. it is their manifesto people need to be focusing on, seeing what they need to do in government. me and labour mps are trying to save as many good labour mps as possible so we have a semblance of the opposition after june eight. that is what matters to the west country. why will you support the labour ma nifesto why will you support the labour manifesto in public? why won't you support the policy? a lot of questions will be asked of labour mps around the country, such as whether they are putting the face and a picture ofjeremy corbyn elephants, whether they can sign up to this sort of programme. there will be things in it they do agree with, but as you heard there, many labourmps, as one with, but as you heard there, many labour mps, as one put it to me, are trying to create their own lifeboat to save them, because they say that leadership is a huge issue on the doorstep, and they say that even though people might like the idea policies such as renationalising the railways, they say that the issue of jeremy problem. well, that is their view. of course, those close tojeremy corbyn think that this is exactly the kind of programme that can win them the general election. i should say, the candidates' list, those going to stand across the uk, will close today. you will be able to find out the other candidates standing next to on our website. many thanks indeed. the scottish conservative leader ruth davidson has accused the scottish government is spending more time debating constitutional matters than other key policy areas combined. the snp leader nicola sturgeon hit back during first minister's questions, saying time had been spent and discussing the implications of what she called the brexit disaster, and the tories were leading the country into it. steven godden is outside holyrood for us. yes, this is the weekly chance for the opposition leaders here in scotla nd the opposition leaders here in scotland to question the first minister, and while that general election campaign is going on, y

jeremy corbyn sending dilly mandates —— jeremy corbyn set out a huge package for the nhs. better staff, jeremye a clear indication most of it would come from three places, the city, business, and people earning more than £80,000. that mr corbyn said if this cash was not found for the nhs, he predicted in five years' time the health service would be unrecognisable. nothing embodies our campaign theme "for the many not the few" better than the nhs. universal life—long health care free at the point of use. however our health service is actually being dismantled by stealth. over the past seven years our nhs has been driven into crisis after crisis. a&e departments struggling to cope, waiting lists soaring and we saw last week, the tory cuts have exposed patient services to cyber attack. mr corbyn suggested the extra cash a labour government would invest in the nhs would mean1 million people could be taken off waiting lists and council referral times to be halved. there is an air of familiarity about mr corbyn's point. the nhs in crisis. let's be honest, successive elections have warned there was 2
