stu, let's turn to th republicans, president trump calling it a red wave. maybe we should call ate trump wave. are they winning some of them because they recommend pla him? >> absolutely they are. he's the dominant figure in the political party. if yousm brace him, his supporters are likely -- more likely than not to embrace you. if you reject him, voters are going to reject. i think the president is messing around with with us on the red wave.e he can't beliat. all the survey and national data, polling and individual races suggests the contrary. i think he's just messing around with us. that being said, he is the single most important person in the republican party right now. i> woodruff: but i come back to trump wave,sa, because, what, tim pawlenty in minnesota, people are saying he was punished because hwasn't pro-trump enough. >> right, he had opposed the president when he was a candidate and now circled back and said he supports the president now.bu the republican voters didn't believe mr. pawlenty. i think he haanher problem, judy, and pawlenty lost b

earlier it was heaving in here with stu d e nts earlier it was heaving in here with students coming to their results. today has been a big day of hopes and dreams, celebrations and tea rs. hopes and dreams, celebrations and tears. for many of the students two yea rs of ha rd tears. for many of the students two years of hard work came down to how they prepared for a final exam. two years of hard work for a life changing moment. for many, the wait was over. for changing moment. for many, the wait was over. foi’ some, changing moment. for many, the wait was over. for some, the waiting and just gone. i got b,b,c and u nfortu nately i just gone. i got b,b,c and unfortunately i needed to get three as but at the end of the day it is what it is and hopefully i can try to get into my insurance which is manchester met. there have been major changes in a—levels in england with a move away from coursework and as—level is no longer contributing to final marks. we are basically on a new specification so there was that possibility examiners can be particularly harsh or lenient. this man came to engla

. >> appreciate it, stu.tuart: you are holding canada's feet to the fire when the foreign minister arrives today. hard-line trump on full display, correct? >> well realistic trump. i mean, he would, on that point he would love to make a deal with canada, a good deal. a good deal in the interests of the american economy, the american workforce, american farmers and presumably as we, as we did in mexico a deal that works for both sides, a pro-growth deal, a free trade deal, a get down your tariffs deal, all of which the president believes. so i think he is quite sincere. but -- stuart: larry, do you have an offer ready to go to canada's foreign minister today? >> i don't want to go into that. bob lighthizer is our lead negotiator. he did a fabulous job with mexico in my judgment along with jared kushner. i believe they snatched victory from the jaws of defeat several times. so no, i'm not going to get into specifics. i will leave that to ambassador lighthizer but my point is this, the president wants to make a

for many stu d e nts for having us here.ere are plenty of high quality courses available through clearing. the main thing is to stay positive, don't panic. this information on the bbc website, we'll be talking about this today. thank you, elaine, in birkenhead. let's talk to andy moore, he's at, the universities and colleges admissions service, the organisation in charge of the admissions process. not everyone wants to go to university. we'll talk about that later. andy, how many places are going to be available through this clearing process, which is a process of stu d e nts clearing process, which is a process of students who don't get the grades that they were hoping for? we've got an indication that there will be quite a few places available, ucas say they will be places on 30,000 courses, some at the top universities in the russell group, some will offer cash incentives. it seems to be a buyer's market in terms of the students at the moment. the number of students has gone down a little in terms of the numbers going on

there will be hundreds of stu d e nts life.is on the final exam, so for many students there has been years of coursework which will come down to the final exam. i saw you yesterday and you are all quite anxious. i was hoping you would have the smiles today. jordan, how did you get on? i unable to go back to university next year after i have done the foundation here. how are you feeling today? i am feeling absolutely amazing. i am going to salford university to study the course that i really want to do. how stressful has been? it has been so stressful. honestly, waking up this morning it was so stressful, but it is all worth it, it is all worth it. finally you can relax. yesterday you saidi finally you can relax. yesterday you said i don't want to think about it. ijust want said i don't want to think about it. i just want to find out my results. you found out at 6am this morning. how did you get on? it is amazing, i got the degrees i wanted, i have an unconditional also, but i got an a—star, two as and the b. i can do because i

kind of support that they need to go on to university, especially for those stu d e nts university, very clear from all of the research that it is the upfront and living costs that are potentially... those concerns are potentially... those concerns are what is putting people off from going to university, therefore what we will be introducing in wales is the most progressive system of student support in the united kingdom. indeed, unique in western europe, in that we will be providing a small grant to every student that goes on to university from wales, but for those from our most deprived background, they will have a non—payable grant equivalent to the burning wage while they study and we believe that the average welsh stu d e nts believe that the average welsh students from an average income household in wales will receive a grant of approximately £7,000, and thatis grant of approximately £7,000, and that is there to help them pay for their accommodation and their resources , their accommodation and their resources, because it is the upfront living costs, how you survive day to day

in recent years, it has been more rigorous with the kind of advice they give stu d e nts with the kindget used to this new system as well? absolutely, and i think that standards, a—c, employers will now need to look at that as nine—four. now need to look at that as nine-four. do you think they have got their heads around that? yes and no. some are more prepared than others, that is why the national career service is there, to talk through employers who are confused, and also parents, to make sure they are understanding what can be conflict information. clearly, this has been a period of huge transition, it still is in many ways. as a result of what you heard about teaching for this new test, or assessments, i should say, what would you like to see the government do now in terms of considering how this is working, which areas are working well, which areas perhaps need to be looked at again? what is reassuring is that the government has said they are not going to make anyone substantial changes, and that includes the exam system, for some time. who will give these changes a chance to emb

and the article also talks about the fact that some more mature students or part—time stu d e nts moreso declining.” students are also, the numbers of those are also declining. i don't think that everybody is meant to go to university or that it is some kind of... which the article addresses. we should also be developing in other sectors are other kinds of talents. i find it very sad that boys and men are not applying because university is not just about getting a degree. it opens your mind. isjust take a look at one of the other stories. the sunday mirror, one of many papers who has just off the duchess of sussex, meghan markle, out at a wedding yesterday. the news here in the mirror, a world exclusive, they are claiming, she will reunite with her dad. lots to catch up on, haven't they?
