but john mcdonald, the man who would be chancellor5 5aying mcdonald, the man who would be chancellor5tional red socialism. chancellors saying that this is traditional red socialism. this is what people want and what we will give to them but the tories appeared to be wanting to outspend labour and i suppose they're trying to atone for the nine years. they say that but if you look at some the figures, sajid javid was planning to spend... i completely agree and before there was this danger were if you try to engage in a bidding war with conservatives that you would always be outbid by the labour party. they are never going to say that we spend less per year than the conservatives, but there are quite significant differences in that spending. but it is quite an interesting time for me at least as a free marketer, it's quite a depressing time because whoever gets in charge will be taking us back to 19705 in charge will be taking us back to 1970s levels of spending. in charge will be taking us back to 19705 levels of spending. pointed to the fact that we are having to rewrite the fiscal rul

ever since john mcdonald became a shadow chancellor, he has talked a lot about the very richest footing government has done before under blairand weber in government has done before under blair and brown. weber in government has done before under blairand brown. it weber in government has done before under blair and brown. it was a more gradual rising tax in the middle classes pay more taxes sub —— not what labour and government. they have not tried to change public opinion. they have not seen the likes of us should pay more tax. they're just hitting those at the top. now, that is the point that the daily tear —— daily telegraph and ft are making that you can'tjust do that. i have found interesting they have not tried to convince everyone that everyone should pay more taxes. they have definitely gone for the attacking billionaires —— take down doing us. but i think there are stealth taxes hidden in there on the middle classes like scrapping the married persons allowance. massively cracking down on private schools. labour and corbyn talks about private schools how they are just normal pr

we heard john mcdonald mentioned devolution.n the agenda of what is required to unlock their potential. we talk about our prime capabilities and it is how do we invest to make sure that they are optimised in terms of economic terms. previously, we said we do not wa nt to terms. previously, we said we do not want to be a dependent economy, want to bea want to be a dependent economy, want to be a contributing economy we have the means to do that but we have to have the powers and the pounds delivered. how do you make it happen? give us the three points. hold meetings away from london, a pa rt hold meetings away from london, a part of the treasury to move north, realistically, how long would that ta ke to realistically, how long would that take to set up and would it really help? it is like all of these things. if you have the right attitude and mindset, you can make these happen very quickly. your sister broadcaster has not taken too long to make a decision to move up to are part of the world and is already here in a matter of mon

sebastien, john mcdonald's call to work to live, not live to work, one that strike a chord with someat most people ta ke wrong, the idea that most people take pride in work and enjoy working and find it a core part of their lives and their being. the idea that we go toa lives and their being. the idea that we go to a three day weekend, it might sound nice and fun to some, spending time with children and family, but it might not be the same asa family, but it might not be the same as a cost £17 billion. i can see the debate, labour had a similar debate on universal basic income, another radical left wing economic policy. giving everybody a basic income, about £20,000, but it would cost a huge amount of taxpayers' money, and wouldn't bring in the productivity gains people are talking about? ultimately doesn't help the jobs market in the uk. i think the key thing for labour series they have talked about a lot of radical stuff, but in 2017 the manifesto was broadly described as nationally democratic. but they become more radical. they want to nationalise water, energy, rail, mail, and th

we will hear from john mcdonald —— john mcdonald, the shadow chancellor, live on bbc news.bout the conversation of students and according to this, he was explaining how he got into financial difficulties. it led to him eating peas and soup for a month and it was grim and people are saying, could yourfamily not grim and people are saying, could your family not have helped out a bit more? they looked at the income and base the maintenance alone on that, but if there are other problems like like debt payments and they cannot actually get the money. they supported me as much as they could, but they could not fully support me because there was no way they could do it. theyjust couldn't do it? i am not blaming them, just asking them. that is often what people say. no problem. ruth, you organised the rent strikes last year. what was the reason behind it? the reason behind it was at the university of bristol it had doubled beyond the rate of inflation every year and the quality of accommodation had stayed the same and essentially got worse and students were struggling to pay their

john mcdonald confirmed they were setting aside more than £50 billion aside to compensate them.ellor this morning said that no one earning over £80,000 will be taxed —— mike no one under £80,000 will be taxed any more. we have said quite clearly that the top 5% will pay a little bit more so anyone watching your show earning less than £80,000 a year will not pay a penny more. we have also said that corporations will have to pay a little bit more. and to put that into context, we are saying that corporation tax would be at 26% and under margaret thatcher, it was at 36%. and in your piece earlier, i think this is really crucial to say, in your piece earlier, you were talking about people being honest with the public — we have been incredibly honest with the public that in order to have a world—class system, public service and those jobs of the future, those at the top will have to pay a little bit more. it isa it is a funny old world. labour are promising to spend lots more money but apparently it is not going to be too painful except for the richest. we have the tories also promis

. >> the reason i dwell on this -- i spoke to john mcdonald in 2018 nearlyassured me we have defined the national agenda, and will not go beyond it. he said, i have nothing up my sleeve. then we hear about open reach last week. cbi says businesses are nervous forward your plans on nationalization end. >> i have set up this morning the kind of objectives and the society we want to create. we have made clear the rail network and rail operating that is already publicly owned. it should be in public hands. is a natural monopoly and should be in public hands, in my view. linked back to the post office. return the royal mail and post office into one, which becomes the economic generator. i think that's the right thing to do. water companies have made enormous profits, sold off a lot of assets, been condemned by some. i think they ought to be in public ownership and also would be much more effective working with the environment agency on river basin management and river management as well as water supply. know about the businesses you intend to bring back international ownership. can you sa

breakfast television channel to be further labor's campaign hasn't really got off to a great start john mcdonalda shot of chancellor spoke on yesterday on thursday and he was talking about greater funding for public services but his message got lost somewhat in a row over whether labor was still had a problem with anti semitism now today friday all the main parties essentially move on to the national health service not really as a touchstone subject for the election here in the u.k. attention will move north of the border as we call it here in london up to scotland where the scottish national party launching their election campaign and they have a an eye catching proposal for a and a chest protection bill the theory behind it is that although health policy is devolved to the scottish parliament the concern of the s.n.p. is that under a post brecht's its trade deal done by the london governments the n.h.s. and drugs policy and procurement and privatisation essentially of the of the n.h.s. could be possible and the scottish parliament would be unable to do anything about it what the s.n.p. are say

john mcdonald who is even left of corbyn, is preparing for a run on the pound and he wants to restorey that supports a fantastic education for every child in this country because we believe an opportunity across this country. or go withjeremy corbyn. go withjeremy corbyn and the labour party who wanted to expropriate the property of schools and abolish ofsted which actually protects kids from bullying in the classroom. we support our armed forces, we believe them. he actually said he wants to ban them. we back our police and the fight against street crime and knife crime, his party things that stop and search is oppressive and inappropriate. we wa nt to oppressive and inappropriate. we want to control our immigration system. he wants unlimited and uncontrolled immigration no matter what pressure that puts on public services such as the nhs. we want our country to stand tall in the world. and to sit by our allies and our advice. will he is so consumed with a juvenile dislike of america that he actually sides with the mullahs of tehran rather than washington. and when russia ordered the

reason i dwell on this, on the buses -- the reason i dwell on it is i expected john -- i spoke to john mcdonaldred me we had narrowly defined the renationalization agenda. i have nothing up my sleeves, he said. and then we hear last week and this morning -- they say businesses are nervous about where your plans for renationalization and. -- end. as to corbyn: i set of this morning the kind of society we want to create. the public ownership, i think we made very clear, of the rail network and real operating -- that should be in public hands. royal mail is perhaps a natural monopoly, and therefore should be in my view in public hands, and linked back to the post office, which developed the postbank -- we turn royal mail and the post office into one. i think that is the right thing to do. water companies have made enormous profits, sold off a lot of assets, been condemned by the "financial times" for their works. i think they ought to be in public ownership and would be much more effective working with the environment agency on river basin management and river management, as well as water supplies

john mcdonald was describing it as an investment it's mainly aimed at green industries so there are plans the eu. the families of those who died in the 1989 hillsborough disaster have reacted angrily, after a jury cleared the match commander on the day of ‘gross negligence manslaughter‘. it had been alleged david duckenfield had a "personal responsibility" for what happened, as our correspondentjudith moritz reports. david duckenfield has been a blame figure for 30 years, in charge at hillsborough when disaster happened. that he failed isn't in dispute but his trial ended with a not guilty verdict, and with tears for the hillsborough families. 96 people have found to have been unlawfully killed to a criminal standard by an inquestjury, and somebody has got to be held responsible for 96 deaths. the families have struggled to reconcile the two different core processes they have gone through. the crown courtjury did not accept the prosecution case that david duckenfield's failings were so exceptionally bad they were a substantial cause of the disaster. it comes four years after an inquest ju

, because there are five marginal seats were a tiny screen protector tip them into labour, and john mcdonaldt to northern powerhouse, hs three, which would run from hull all the way over to liverpool, which would cost 39 by japan. isaid, to liverpool, which would cost 39 by japan. i said, all of that sounds great, but how do you plan to pay for it? his answer was, we do not apologise from looking at it decades of borrowing under labour, because we need to change the status quo. the one jobs economy they have created is one of low pay and insecure work. we have got to start investing. we are borrowing because interest rates are low, the imf and world bank are all known as a time to border. what would you say to families and the north—west who say that sounds nice, to have a society but things are pure, but it is going to cause too much. it will not fall on their shoulders. so, a promise from the shadow chancellor that middle earning families wouldn‘t have to pay for that sort of investment, and a second seat on the target in packager has a 1400 votes in it, and the chancellor sajid javid put

john mcdonald in his speech earlier was talking about doubling investment spending to an extra £55 billion absolutely true. it is just what it feels like is perhaps an attempt by the conservatives here to frame this is not just ambitious the conservatives here to frame this is notjust ambitious spending but potentially unaffordable. commemorations have been taking place in germany to mark the 30th anniversary of the fall of the berlin wall. thousands of people gathered at the heart of the german capital to mark the historic day — with chancellor angela merkel leading the event. our correspondentjenny hill reports from berlin. this city set the world alight 30 years ago. last night berlin was still on fire. cheering the wall was loathed, feared, resisted. in the end, it couldn't hold them back. cornelia was 11 when communist east germany came tumbling down. i remember also that when we could go to the west part, that...the smelling. i will never forget about the smelling in the shops because it was such an amazing smell i never had before. angela merkel, leading commemorations this weekend

so john about having a very ambitious plan for investment. sojohn mcdonaldg about having an extra £35 billion of investment spending. these figures, as you said earlier, they have described them as any competent mishmash of incomes and estimates and bad maths. the shadow communities secretary was also speaking to andrew marr this morning and he again said that these just don't stack up. this is an absolute work of fiction by the conservatives. you can't trust a word thatjohnson conservatives. you can't trust a word that johnson and his conservatives. you can't trust a word thatjohnson and his ministers say on this issue. we will have a fully costed manifesto in due course, when we launch that. and the challenge is actually for the conservatives to fully cost their own manifesto, something they didn't do in 2017. of course, the ma nifestos do in 2017. of course, the manifestos will be out over the next few weeks, and then we will see what they are and if they will be costed. meanwhile, the green party has also been putting forward its plans if it we re been p

but there was confusion, mcdonald said that nhs would not be part of their plan for a four day week, but the charm on the right... this morning, johnnse to suggest that the four—day week could include the nhs, which is it? we work to live, we don't live to work. cheering that will apply to everybody, because as you grow your company... it is early in this campaign, the official manifestos will not emerge for another week but all sides have been full to go off script already. ——. to go off script. the prime minister's motorcade had swept away from the choreographed visit and photo opportunity that politicians love. but whether boris johnson wa nts to love. but whether boris johnson wants to talk about brexit being com plete wants to talk about brexit being complete all the time orjeremy corbyn and the labour party who want to keep the focus on public services, they both know very well it is not up to them. they can't control what happens everyday, let alone in the next five weeks also. we are still in the beginning stages of this campaign, the foothills of what might be an epic menton range and at this stage it is too early to know

the consumer services index, up 1%, that is mcdonald's, that is starbucks, that is all rallying today. take a look at the machinery indexes. this ties to the johnngs report. a lot of the names moving lower on the day. guy: let's turn back to brexit and how the upcoming u.k. election could impact the market. global head is the of cross asset strategy at ubs. we get the poll out tonight, this was a paul that in 27 -- this was a poo that in -- a poll that in 2017 accurately guessed the conservatives would not get a majority. is that the game? is it basically you get a conservative majority, you get brexit, you get certainty, you by u.k. assets? >> which assets? do you buy sterling or domestic stocks? i think the upside of the sterling, even in the world where the market outcome on byitics is as expected and january 31 you do get a deal with the eu, the upside for the sterling will be limited. before brexit began, before the referendum, eurosterling was at 70. cable was 125, 150. it is unlikely we head toward that territory. even a good world where the desired outcome on politics is seen in you get a january 41st brexit deal, i think eurosterling g

john smith centre, the promises? they don't expect their politicians to keep them. i suppose it doesn't help. you need to start quoting numbers that are reliable. the video put up byjohn mcdonald 5% of top tax earners will pay more tax. all of the big players are going to leave if labour are in power. you have to question whether thatis power. you have to question whether that is going to be reassuring. where do those people go? is it other eu countries? are they able to do theirjobs and business there in the same way they do in the uk? i think labour in fairness have a basket of other things in this election campaign and they are not just going for people in that topping come —— top income bracket was not they are going about companies was not they want to spend more money on public services and they are going to detail how they will go about it. to the public want to vote on taxes? it depends if you are paying them a lot. let us turn to the times will stop future flood victims could get —— could get money. the floods, particularly in and around doncaster, has become quite intensely politicised. we have had jeremy corbyn urging boris johnson to do more. we have every person g
