so you would rather see mr corbyn? of uk politics just now and forming the conclusions. i don't thinkjeremy corbyn is credible as an alternative prime minister. it's got to be one or the other and i think you would rather see mr corbyn. i would actually rather see ultimately scotland be independent whoever emerges. of course, but that's not the choice, as you've said. i think, even with narrowing polls, i think it's highly likely that the tories are going to win this election, so what matters for scotland is that we have the strongest possible voice. we know the damage tory governments do to scotland. if you found that your snp contingent in westminster was in a pivotal position, because perhaps mr corbyn wins, but perhaps not by much, or is only the largest party, would the snp work with mr corbyn to raise taxes to pay for more spending? we've got our own tax policies and we have put them forward already in terms of the taxes we control in scotland. uk—wide, would you work with mr corbyn to raise taxes? i don't agree w

that is very dangerous territory for mr corbyn to —— talk to isis. complex after the resolved by talking to people with whom you profoundly disagree. i expect that will be picked up by his opponents as they suggested that mr corbyn is prepared to talk to terrorist groups, potentially like ies and i'm sure conservatives will rake over the record with other groups like the ira when he suggested dialogue. norman in london. and jeremy corbyn will be the latest leader in the hot seat talking to andrew neil — you can see that at seven o'clock this evening on bbc one. that get the latest weather. things are going to change over the next couple of days but not yet. it is blue skies for everyone. we could have the highest temperatures in scotla nd have the highest temperatures in scotland today. it could go up to 30 degrees. hot sunshine, a bit breezy in the south. late in the day, they north side and northern ireland could see an isolated thunderstorm. mid—to high 20s. through this evening we will see a change. thunderstorms coming in from the west across pa

mr corbyn was speaking to our political editor laura kuenssberg, who reports now on the day's events.y corbyn! a showbiz introduction. labour's 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'll be a reckoning for those who've thought they could get away with asset stripping our industry, crashing our economy through their greed and ripping off workers and consumers. cheering and applause. a dramatic call in front of his shiny new battle bus, but since he's 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's brought multitudes of new members, but what about the mainstream 7 you said, rather dramatically, there would be a reckoning if you become prime minister. now, a reckoning doesn't sound like a few people at the very top paying a little bit more, it sounds like something rather

mr corbyn talking about not just halting austerity but reversing it.personal independence payments. he's also talking about a significant bolstering for the public sector with billions being poured into the health service, education, childcare, housing. he is also talking about a marked expansion in the role of the state, renationalising key industries and telling local authorities to bring back services into their control. pushing the private sector in the nhs. he is talking about reshaping the way our liberal, pro—business market economy works, with business facing more obligations in terms of the conditions they offer employees, and the taxes they pay, turning britain into an economy more like those on continental europe. the key question i'm not sure mr corbyn will have allayed concern about, is how will this be paid for and how much more borrowing does he envisage? because there were no answers when it came to paying for this hugely ambitious programme of renationalisation, buying back the railways, energy companies, water companies, the royal mai

that's not what i asked you, mr corbyn. do you support the renewal of trident? voted against the renewal of it, because i wanted to go in a different direction. that is the decision that's been taken. i respect that decision. but can you tell the british people tonight that you support the renewal of trident? we're going ahead with the programme which has been agreed by parliament and voted on by the labour party. do you support it? listen, my views on nuclear weapons are well known. i want to achieve a nuclear—free world to multilateral disarmament and the nuclear non—proliferation treaty. so you don't support it? i support a nuclear—free world. i want to bring about peace and i also want us to focus on what i believe to be serious threats like cyber security and terrorism. i understand that, but we need a simple answer to a simple question. you've had the answer. you cannot say to the british people tonight that "i, jeremy corbyn, will support the renewal of trident". it's there in the programme. but you can't bring yourself to say that. we are going to pursue

i have to say, there are a lot of labour mps who take the view mr corbyn is not their secret weapon. labour's neck and their great fear is that the more people see unvarnished jeremy corbyn, it may actually dent labour support. the other thing we will get from labour today is mr corbyn trying to clarify the party's position on brexit. let's be honest, the party has had a confused response, and trying to reassure its brexit supporting voters that it really is in favour of brexit, not trying to alienate those many labour members who backed remain and it has been a sort of uneasy balancing act. mr corbyn today will say that his party accepts leaving the eu but they want brexit to be a jobs creation exercise. cheering and applause mr corbyn is coming to the stage, i can see members of the shadow cabinet meeting the, i saw andy burnham earlier. he will also be on stage. today, we're told andy burnham will be on stage. so, we awaitjeremy corbyn. i don't think he's there yet. let's just have a listen... colleagues, friends, brothers and sisters, welcome to event city here in manchester to la

mr corbyn insisted he's not a pacifist, but warned against a "bomb first, talk later" approach.e said donald trump is making the world more dangerous, and he accused theresa may of pandering to an erratic president. our political correspondent eleanor garnier reports. this is the labour leader positioning himself as a potential world leader. not a pacifist he says, instead pledging a robust, independent foreign policy. i will do everything to protect the security and safety of our people and our country. that is our first duty. jeremy corbyn is a long—standing critic of military intervention abroad. the former chairman of the stop the war coalition, a veteran anti—war campaigner. and on nuclear weapons, he's sticking to his tune. i'm often asked if as prime minister i would order

mrs may is criticised over social care and mr corbyn for his past relationships with militant groups. scientists say they've made a "major breakthrough" in the battle against infections that are resistant to antibiotics. a us team says by modifying an existing drug they may be able to combat one of the biggest threats to global health. after days of airport chaos, the boss of british airways has apologised for the disruption caused by its computer meltdown, but refused to resign. he denies the crisis had anything to do with ba shedding large numbers of it staff. golfer, tiger woods, has denied he'd been drinking, when he was stopped while driving his car in florida. in a statement, tiger woods blames an unexpected reaction to prescription drugs. he has been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. now on bbc news, it's time for world business report. no frills airline, ryanair, thought to be about to announce big annual profits. we'll find out what they are doing right while others struggle. more banks fines in the wake of the 1mdb scandal. singapore's uob and credit suiss

stressing his patriotism, mr corbyn repeatedly emphasised that nothing excused monday‘s massacre. you will only be deployed abroad when there is a clear need, and only when there is a plan, that you have the resources to do yourjob and secure an outcome that delivers lasting peace. mr corbyn promised that a labour government would give the security services the money they required, and cuts to police budgets would be reversed. the issue of security could dominate the rest of this election campaign, and todayjeremy corbyn has repeated views he has held for decades, that military action abroad has made the uk less safe. but, to others, that sounds like an excuse for terrorism. senior conservatives have been quick to hit out at the labour leader, calling his speech monstrous. this has been caused not by us, asjeremy corbyn would have us believe. it‘s been caused by a sick ideology, a perverted version of islam, that hates us and hates our way of life. and to say anything now to legitimate orjustify those who have carried out the atrocity in manchester is, in my view, absolutely obsce

mr corbyn's allies believe many former labour members who had left the party in protest, are back underevious points of view, jeremy corbyn's put forward his position on foreign affairs proudly, aiming to bolster his core support. but for many labour candidates out campaigning, mr corbyn's stance on this issue is a vulnerability. that manifesto will have a strong narrative towards the armed forces. people will want to see that because they are hearing tory narrative attacking opposition but the manifesto will speak for itself. as the party leaders pitch for power in westminster, it's up to you to decide who you want to fly the flag for britain. eleanor garnier, bbc news, westminster. joining me from westminster is our assistant political editor norman smith. his ascends the calculation of team corbin, people'sviews of military intervention abroad may have changed, particularly among young voters. but what about traditional labour voters? i am joined voters. but what about traditional labourvoters? iamjoined by voters. but what about traditional labour voters? i am joined by the shadow f

and as mr corbyn said, the policy is now in the manifesto.eems to be that when certain people are asked questions, they start to talk about their personal views or raise questions. emily thornberry, who is the shadow foreign secretary, suggested that if labour were to become government, it would need to have a strategic defence review and that would mean looking at trident. and that brought the criticism, as we've reported, from the shadow defence secretary who is basically saying, no, this policy has been decided, and what's more, it's myjob to be the shadow defence secretary, not yours. all of this was overshadowing the message that labour wants to get out at the moment, and whyjeremy corbyn has been in birmingham today for an election rally, they are trying to double down on their criticism of the conservative manifesto and in particular the proposals relating to pensioners. theresa may has says she wants to put the divisions caused by the eu referendum "behind us" and get on with the job of making a success of brexit. speaking to party ac

speaking in manchester mr corbyn called time on those he described as tax cheats, greedy bankers andosses. but on the question of brexit he was far less clear on what a vote for labour would mean. speaking to our political editor laura kuennsberg mr corbyn repeatedly refused to say whether labour would definitely take britain out of the eu. look there was a clear vote in the referendum a year ago but now there are the negotiations which have already begun. i sent isenta i sent a letter to president elect emmanuel macron last night congratulating him on his win and also setting out that we wanted good relations with europe and to make sure that there is a trade access, a tariff free trade access to the european markets. but on that point if you say brexit is settled, whatever happens in the negotiations, however well or badly they go, it would be leading if you are prime minister? we will go in with determination to achieve what i've just outlined and it is not a one—off meeting, oh one of discussion, it involves relations with all the governments across europe and every one of the me

mr corbyn painted a bleak future for the nhs under theresa may.derfunding, demoralisation, he said it would be unrecognisable in five years' time. 40,000 fewer nurses because of nursing shortages. he talked about stealth privatisation, the risk that the nhs would be broken up and plundered by private corporations. labour, he said, would invest something like £7 billion a year, a total of £37 billion, 10 billion for capital, including upgrades to it. a £5 billion winter emergency fund. however, it would come with strings. they would be new targets. people with serious injuries would have to be seen in a&e within an hour. they would have to cut in half the cancer referral times, and try to reintroduce the 18 week waiting limit for patients. more money, significantly more money. new targets as well. mr corbyn painting a very dark picture of what lay ahead, he says for the nhs, if mrs may was re—elected. 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

this evening, mr corbyn faced more questions, this time on defence.abour party policy to renew trident? i voted against the renewal. everybody knows that. can you tell the british people you support the renewal of trident? we are going ahead with the programme. do you support it? my views on nuclear weapons are well—known. i wa nt to nuclear weapons are well—known. i want to achieve a nuclear free world through multilateral disarmament, through multilateral disarmament, through the non—proliferation treaty. how a country protect its citizens is likely to be high on the agenda for the rest of this election campaign. and you can watch the full interview with jeremy corbyn at 7pm on bbc one. meanwhile, theresa may has told world leaders at the g7 summit in sicily that more needs to be done to tackle foreign fighters seeking to return from conflicts in the middle east. the prime minister also called for concerted pressure on technology companies to remove extremist material from the internet. from sicily, john pienaar reports. stagey affairs, these summit

110w page wishing trees, but mr corbyn now suggesting that those who go to university this autumn shouldn off, in that first year before the legislation comes into force. more than that, those students who have already started their courses, they should no longer have to pay any fees. and crucially, those who have graduated and are having to pay back loa ns graduated and are having to pay back loans currently with an interest rate of 6.1%, that should be cut by more than half, to the rate of inflation, around 2.7%. and on top of that, you add in bringing back the maintenance grant. that is a total bill, say labour, of around £11 billion. it is a whopping great big policy promise whichjeremy corbyn has put at the very heart of his election campaign. that said, it risks being somewhat overshadowed i think today by continuing controversy think today by continuing c0 ntrove i’sy over think today by continuing controversy over mr corbyn‘s attitude towards the ira. yesterday he was asked repeatedly in a television interview with he condemned the ira, and he refused to experts agree condemn the

where is mr corbyn? he was meant to be here.t to be here, but things happened and mr corbyn is... dealing with internal matters. do you know who leaked your manifesto? mr corbyn's closest ally was promise a great things. this is extremely modern, progressive set of proposals. it is looking to the long term future and most people get excited at what they have seen. the 45 page draft we have seen spells out plans to nationalise the railways, royal mail and parts of the energy industry, to abolish tuition fees in england, to restore some welfare benefits and scrap the bedroom tax and to provide £8 billion for social care. in a frenzy over who told the world... reporter: are you responsible for the leak? sun can be silly. labour shadow ministers, officials and union bigwigs were due to arrive to sign it. we are here today to decide the final version and i'm sure it will be an exciting process that will attract as many voters as possible to the labour party. i am certain that ordinary labour voters want an increased minimum wage, the

this evening, mr corbyn faced more questions, this time on nuclear weapons.links with the ira. why would the british people want us their leader in and that for years supported the ira? i did not support the ira, i don't support the ira. what i want everywhere is a peace process, decency and human rights. did you tell them to stop the bombing?” didn't meet the ira, i obviously did meet people from sinn fein. how the country protect its citizens is now likely to be on the agenda for the rest of the campaign. at the g7 summit in sicily, theresa may accused jeremy corbyn of making excuses for terrorism. earlier, she told world leaders that more needs to be done to tackle foreign fighters returning from conflicts in the middle east, and called for pressure on technology companies to remove extremist material from the internet. from sicily, our deputy political editorjohn pienaar reports. stagey affairs, these summits. beautiful settings, big stars. some loving the spotlight — britain's leader, keen to use it. hard to move, let alone grab attention here. you could

but he says that 200 seats, if mr corbyn can keep 200 5eat5, 200 seats, if mr corbyn can keep 200 seatserhaps he should stay on, the front page of the guardian. both of those things are shocking. for labour to say before the election has even happened, we don't expect to win, is pretty astonishing. i've not seen that before. but then to say... this is the union, not the party. but these are the backers of the party. in a way to. the biggest backers. also to say that 200 seat isa backers. also to say that 200 seat is a success, that would be the worst labour outcome since 1935. even michael foot got 209 seats. isn't there a strategy here that may be corbyn supporters believe that if they get that figure, if corbyn stays on and the labour party that will emerge will be remodelled as the labour party they really want, because the whole thing of the corbyn thing, we've lost our party. it's a bit like the leave campaign, we wa nt it's a bit like the leave campaign, we want our party back. if they get that will be the launch pad for what they think will be... so they are trying to engineer a

let's have a listen to what mr corbyn had to say.frastructure fairly across the whole of the uk, not totally in the london and south—east, but in every region of the country. i think that is extremely important. and a national investment bank that will ensure that fairness is taken all the way through it. we will also be increasing wages through the living wage, a living wage at £10 an hour by 2020. that will lead to economic growth and higher spending within the economy. it will also lead to a slight reduction in work benefit because of higher wages, but it will also help to rebalance our society. and from a government that has borrowed more than every labour government in history over the past seven yea rs, we government in history over the past seven years, we really don't need lectures... applause we really don't need lectures from the tories on this. jeremy corbyn there. there has been a little bit of confusion here at the manifesto launch on what mr corbyn said on benefits freeze. he said after the manifesto launch and answerin

but it is an almighty risk for mr corbyn, the danger that he simply gets more damaging headlines. ll catch up with you later on in the programme. and tune in to bbc one at 7pm this evening, whenjeremy corbyn will be the latest leader in the hot seat talking to andrew neil. police are continuing their investigations into a possible network surrounding the manchester suicide bomber, who killed 22 and injured 116 people on monday. there've been more searches and one arrest overnight, our correspondent wrye davies is outside greater manchester police hq for us now. bring us up—to—date with what you are being told. there have been some interesting developments overnight, the first police operation in the early hours of the morning, a man was arrested in the moss side area of manchester, which has brought the total number of people in detention to eight. there was an operation this morning overin there was an operation this morning over in st helens in neighbouring merseyside and back in moss side at another address, another police operation this morning. greater manchester police said t

so when mr corbyn makes a speech, will want clarity on what circumstances might they use military forceth. we'll be bringing you that speech from jeremy corbyn, it's expected at around half past 11. the inquest into a schoolboy who died after falling ill in detention has concluded his death was due to an allergic reaction to a school lunch. 14—year—old nasar ahmed had severe asthma and multiple allergies, when he fell ill at school in november. two hours before he collapsed he ate a meal he was allergic to. staff failed to correctly administer his medication before paramedics arrived. our correspondent richard lister is at poplar coroner's court in east london. tell us more about the background leading up to nasar‘s death. tell us more about the background leading up to nasar's death. this happened on november ten last year. nasar had a wide range of extreme food allergies. he was allergic to nuts, fruit, milk, various fruit. he was also asthmatic, severely asthmatic. the school was a weird of this condition, the school nurse had sat down with his family and looked ata sat down with his

today, we had mr corbyn's version, which was that the nhs was being plundered and broken up, if mrs mayon the election. this is core territory for the labour party when it comes to an election, citing the nhs as their big issue to galvanise and motivate their own supporters. mrs may, on the other hand, taking a very untory approach, coming forward with a package of employment rights, which has delighted some and alarmed others in the business community, who fear it will mean more red tape, trying to reach out beyond her natural supporters. i think it tells us about the state of the two campaigns, with four weeks to go. labour on the defensive, if the polls are to be believed, trying to shore up their core vote. mrs may, on the other hand, confident, with some tories even suggesting a possible landslide, now trying to reach out well beyond traditional tory voters. i think it shows how both campaigns are focused around the individual leaders. jeremy corbyn with his long—standing views on taxing business, and mrs may, with her own distinctive, unusual form of conservatism, leading some to

we'll have more from the interview where mr corbyn refuses to say

there has already been a vote in parliament in favour of renewing trident and as mr corbyn said, the byn said, the policy is in the manifesto. the problem seems to be that when certain people are asked questions, they start talking about their personal views, or raising questions. emily thornberry, the shadow foreign secretary, suggested that if labour were to become elected then they would need a strategic defence when you which would involve looking at trident which brought criticism from the shadow defence secretary who said no, this has been decided and it is myjob to be the shadow defence secretary, not yours. all this is overshadowing the message that labour wants to get out at the moment and whyjeremy corbyn has beenin moment and whyjeremy corbyn has been in birmingham for this election rally, they are trying to double down on their conservative election ma nifesto down on their conservative election manifesto criticism, especially the proposals relating to pensioners. meanwhile, the chief secretary to the treasury, david gauke, has insisted the conservatives are right not to s

mr corbyn accused theresa may of pandering to donald trump — who he said was making the world a moreorjohn pienaar. he‘s used to it now, all the attention, and not always friendly, though he still tries to be. don‘t push each other, ok? labour‘s campaign is so much about jeremy corbyn, his character, ideas he‘s held dearfor 30 years, though some in his party wish he hadn‘t, like defence. and today the labour leader was holding to his oldest and deepest convictions, writing off years of britain‘s way of war against international terror. the fact is that the war on terror has been driven, which has driven these interventions, has not succeeded. it has not increased our security at home. in fact, many would say just the opposite. but this, britain‘s leader onside and alongside with donald trump, was notjeremy corbyn‘s answer. more talking, less fighting, yes, and a lot less cosiness with washington if labour wins. britain deserves better than simply outsourcing our country‘s security and prosperity to the whims of the trump white house. so no more handholding donald trump. a labour gove

so today and for the rest of the campaign, mr corbyn's beliefs, his views, his character are going torigged 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 out could get away with asset stripping our economy, could get away with asset stripping our economy, and ripping off workers and consumers. many labour mps would shy away from such language, but jeremy corbyn's supporters believe the electorate are tire offend politics as — 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 knowjeremy corbyn is a kind man and he is a decent and principled man. jeremy corbyn also sought 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 and what sort of country do we want and what sort of country do we want britain to be after that. labour wa

mr corbyn was asked but he did not answer.being a radical and responsible manifesto. how radical is it? more radical than anything ed miliband was proposing? this is radical. it isa was proposing? this is radical. it is a significant extension of the state and the public sector. they are talking about bringing back local government services which have been outsourced to the private sector. similarly, in the health service, they are talking about reversing the private sector, capping what they call excess profit. when you look at the plans for taking ownership of utilities, no labour government has envisaged this scale of nationalisation since michael foot in 1983 when he talked about bringing back the shipyards, bringing back telecom. the labour plans are on a part with that. when you look at the business environment, they are talking rapper very different sort of economy. business will face many more publications, taxes, the environment in which they do will change fundamentally. not only will they have the £10 minimum wage w

a very controversial speech by mr corbyn to restart labour's election campaign. ss peach byjeremy corbyn. it is widely criticised by the conservatives, accusing him of making excuses for terrorists. but also by some in the labour party aghast he should make the speech so soon after the manchester atrocity and in the middle of an election campaign. jeremy corbyn‘s thinking seems that there is a responsibility on the politicians to start a discussion about how we try to ensure atrocities like manchester don't happen again. that for all of the wars we have been involved in, the wars we have been involved in, the pieces of counter—terrorism legislation we have passed, that has not reduced or removed the terrorist threat. so he is advocating a very, very different approach where britain would only engage in wars abroad when there was a clear need, abroad when there was a clear need, a plan, when there are the resources and when the outcome leads to what he calls lasting peace and he also suggests we should be prepared to talk to our enemies. the aide says that does not

speaking in birmingham, mr corbyn said the party's manifesto was decisive on the issue.at our decision is committed to trident. we will look at the real security needs of this country in other areas such as cyber security, which i think the attack last week on the nhs proved that there needs to be serious re—examination of our defences of those sort of attacks. to be clear because there was a different view from emily thornbury that perhaps the review could... it was a review so things could change. i have just made it clear. in our manifesto is a commitment given by the party and me that we will also pursue multilateral disarmament through the nuclear non—proliferation treaty and that is a position that has been held for a long time by the party. committed to renewing the full summary? it is clear what is said in the manifesto. earlier i spoke to our parliamentary correspondent sean curran about the labour trident row. this is an issue labour would like to see settled once and for all. they say that their policy is not going to change, but the background to this is that

and as mr corbyn was outlying labour's foreign policy plans, mrs may didn't rule out a future parliamentaryia. here's our political editor laura kuenssberg. what the tories might expect, a raw reception in much of the northeast england. the tories will ruin our environment. can the conservatives win around here, no! definitely not! no chance! a very small selection of people canvassing for the tories, we have a huge following for the labour. inside, theresa may believes she can swell these polite ranks of her supporters, trying to stir up national pride, with talk of security, and defence, while slamming her labour opponents, who have been in charge round here for a long time. proud and patriotic working class people, in towns and cities across britain, have not deserted the labour party, we respect the 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 whatjeremy corbyn believes in, and are appalled. beyond t

he was meant to be here, but these things happened, and mr corbyn is dealing with internal matters. so it was left to others in labour to play down the significance of the league. the draft includes proposals to nationalise the railways and the postal service, a plan to create publicly owned energy companies in every region of the 0k plus the introduction of price caps, and commitment to abolish tuition fees as well as £8 billion social care. this is an extremely modern, progressive set of proposals. and it's looking to the long—term future and most people are extremely at what they have seen. what if you? it certainly wasn't. the details might be out but the manifesto is not finalised. we are here to decide the finalised. we are here to decide the final word, i finalised. we are here to decide the finalword, iam finalised. we are here to decide the final word, i am sure it will be an exciting programme to attract as many exciting programme to attract as ma ny voters exciting programme to attract as many voters as possible to the labour party. it's being agreed by seniorfigures toda

mr corbyn said the "war on terror" is not working and that a different approach is needed.s speaking as election campaigning resumed after monday's attack in manchester. the conservatives have condemned his remarks as crass and "appallingly timed." our political correspondent iain watson reports. the political truce after manchester, ended this morning. but, first, there was a further moment of remembrance. can i ask that we all stand for a moment's silence. and thenjeremy corbyn re—drew the political dividing lines. austerity has to stop at the aide wards and at the police station door. we cannot be protected and cared for on the cheap. in an attempt to nuetralise the attacks, the labour leader insisted he was patriotic and with manchester. then he made a link between uk terror at home and foreign wars. we must be brave enough to admit that the war on terror is not working. we need a smarter way to reduce the threat from countries that nurture terrorists and generate terrorism. and this message was for the british soldiers. i want to assure you under my leadership, you wil

mrs may is also featured on the telegraph's front page after she criticised jeremy corbyn's commentsbyn was ‘making excuses' for terrorism. mrs may, who is attending the g7 summit, said voters faced a choice between her ‘working constantly to protect the national interest and to protect our security‘ and jeremy corbyn, who she said ‘isn‘t up to the job,‘ according to the guardian. the i‘s front page says police have told the public to ‘go out and enjoy themselves‘ over bank holiday weekend because they have made ‘significant progress‘ in investigating terror networks in the uk. the daily mail also leads on the investigation into the manchester attack. the newspaper reports there will be a security lockdown this weekend, with police and security forces expected to be present at more than 1,300 events. more than 23,000 potentialjihadist extremists have been identified by intelligence services, according to the times, there is a similar splash in the express, which reports that a ‘big blow‘ has been dealt to the extremists as police begin to close in on extremists. meanwhile the sun foc

mr corbyn they're saying there had been some amendments.d that they are just tinkering, saw nothing radical. it seems that it was not too contentious and that has now been signed off by the seniorfigures in the labour party who needed to do so. we have just seen who needed to do so. we have just seen that clip of him. he was not very keen to answer questions at this stage. he said when the thing is published, that is the time for questions. yes, and i think the fact that it has been leaked has obviously thrown their election timetable as it were into a little bit of turmoil because they wanted to make a series of announcements and then there is the issue of the costings, which will be the crucial thing. they are adamant that it will be carefully costed. we have had some hints about how things might be paid for. we are told that there will be income tax rises for those earning more than £80,000. they have also talked about increasing corporation tax. they are pledging to put billions more into the nhs and social care. there is also the quest

mr corbyn has spoken exclusively to the bbc‘s political editor laura kuenssberg. it will be the biggest task in front of you. you have said today brexit is settled. does that mean, if you are prime minister, come hell or high water, whatever the deal on the table, we will be leaving the european union. no, there was a clear vote in the referendum a year ago, but there is now the negotiations which have already begun. i sent a letter to president macron last night congratulating him on his election, but also setting out in broad terms what our aims are in these negotiations. to have good relations with europe, of course, secondly to make sure there is a trade access, a tariff free trade access to the european markets. thirdly that we will, of course, protect the rights of eu nationals living in britain, which we will do straightaway, and that we will also ensure that the regulations that we have got from the european union, such as working directive and employment conditions will be defended and maintain. that has to be but very clearly. that is what you would hope

mr corbyn has been campaigning all over the region today.mised an extra £1 billion for arts and culture if labour were to win the election in june. he culture if labour were to win the election injune. he has also been to scarborough which is currently a conservative seat, but he attracted quite large crowds there when he gave a speech on education and his promises to scrap tuition fees from next september if labour win. this seat as well is conservative. it is held by the minister for the northern powerhouse, who is involved in bringing investment to this part of the uk. he has quite a co mforta ble of the uk. he has quite a comfortable majority with 11,000. it is interesting that mr corbyn has picked here to hold the rally today. the crowd seemed to agree with him on his ideas about education, there are on his ideas about education, there a re lots of on his ideas about education, there are lots of his supporters here. they also like his idea of investing in the nhs. later today he will go back to whole. to that is traditionally labour vot

mr corbyn said both he and mr watson were ‘working flat out‘ to get labour elected onjune the eighth.r 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 position in the polls but warned of the dangers of a big conservative victory. he said if theresa may still commands the lead in the polls she had at the start she will have a margaret thatcher—style majority. as labour mps battle to get back to westminster we are seeing a tale of two campaigns. the official one emphasising what la

in labour's attempt to reach out to young people mr corbyn also promised more investment in britain'scorrespondent ben wright reports. in what used to be an old fruit and veg market, jeremy corbyn jeremy corbyn upped his sales pitch to students in hull. labour 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 an
