The british man suspected of carrying out beheadings in syria hes convicted of being a member of is. Alexander blackman gives his first tv interview the former marine was jailed for killing a wounded taliban fighter. A moment of madness, i think, is the best description i can give. Not exactly the proudest moment of my life. Shes called the queen of latin now Shirley Ballas is the newjudge on strictly. Coming up in the sport on bbc news Maria Sharapova is to be offered another wildcard as she continues her comeback from a doping ban, this time by the lta to next months event in birmingham. Good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. The Prime Minister has said that under a conservative government there would be a cap on Energy Prices. The Election Pledge has run into a barrage of criticism from Opposition Parties and Industry Officials alike. Theresa may said 17 million households would benefit from the cap but labour have accused her of copying their own proposal at the last election at the time, the tories described it as marxist. Heresjohn pienaar. Election pledges dont get closer to home, todays big offer a promise from theresa may to cap your fuel bills, the standard tariff paid by millions if theyre judged too high. Energy firms dont like. Labour say it was their idea. Applause. But this Tory Campaign is about her, her team, her way. Policies like capping Energy Prices to support working families. Some tories, some ministers had doubted this meddling in the market, but shes the boss and one report had said the Big Six Energy firms charged £1. 11 billion over the odds in a year. I think in those circumstances it is right, as does everybody sitting around the cabinet table, for government to take action to support working families. And later, to Factory Workers in leeds, she admitted she was running against classic tory thinking. Sometimes people say to me that doing Something Like that doesnt sound very conservative but actually my response to that is, when it comes to looking at supporting working people, what matters is not an ideology, what matters is doing what you believe to be right. But remember him, and this . If we win that election, in 2015, the next Labour Government will freeze gas and Electricity Prices until the start of 2017. Applause. Ed miliband promised a price freeze and labour was also willing to let prices fall. The reaction today has been anything but the same. Approval from Tory Leaning Papers compared to outrage when labour promised almost the same thing. Labours crying foul. Its not a tory policy, its scandalous that theyve stolen a labour policy. What were saying is that they havent provided any detail and theyve not gone far enough. We have an Energy System thats been rigged by the big Six Companies for some time. Politics because it sounds great, but its rubbish policy because itll actually lead to less investment and higher prices. So itll harm and damage the very people, those on low incomes, that its supposed to be helping. Some ministers may have had their doubts, but as one cabinet member put it to me, theresa mays ideology is not to have one. Shes out to show people who feel theyre getting a raw deal that shes on their side. So, sometimes she sounds right wing, on migration, on brexit, but on some pieces of policies, like this latest piece of intervention, she leans to the centre. Theresa mays after votes from every political direction. Forget the polls, no ones voted. Shes campaigning as if the result is on a knife edge and shes fighting to win and win big. John pienaar, bbc news, westminster. The Energy Industry has criticised the plans to cap prices, arguing the move would stifle competition and hurt customers. Weve asked our Business Editor simon jack to look at the likely impact of a price cap. Adam and margaret from eccles, near manchester, have been with the same Energy Supplier for 30 years. And when their bill arrives every three months, they go to the bank to pay it in full. They could pay less if they shopped around. So why havent they . It is just impossible to compare like with like because the tariffs are so confusing, deliberately so, so people cant make an informed choice. After two hours ploughing through i gave up and thought better the devil i know, get a bill, go and pay it at the bank, i know ive paid it. The conservative plan for a cap on energy bills, like the old labour plan before it, is aimed squarely at Adam And Margaret and millions like them. According to the regulator 0fgem, two thirds of all energy customers, that is 17 million households, are on standard variable tariffs, which tend to be the most expensive. The competition authorities say, collectively, customers are paying £1. 11 billion more than they would be paying if they switch to cheaper deals. The conservatives say that means a saving of up to £100 per household. But this cap would not automatically move people to the cheapest possible deal, it would just improve the bad deal a bit. And many of the cheapest deals might be withdrawn by Energy Companies to make up for any money they lose to the cap. In fact there is evidence that is already happening, which is why most of the industry is not convinced some of these numbers stack up, or that caps are the answer. The market is actually changing in quite a dynamic fashion. I think it is really important we dont damage that and we keep competition there. We bring in some of these fantastic new entrants in the market, who are bringing innovation and challenging the big players. Thats got to be right for consumers. The Big Six Energy companies dont like this proposal. They prefer competition to caps. But some of those smaller suppliers are supported. I think this is good news for energy customers. It might be painfulfor Energy Companies that are in the business of taking advantage of customers who dont understand energy very well. 0r overcharging the loyal customers. But, on the whole, for companies that believe in charging a fair price for energy, this is probably good news. Competition authorities looked to the Energy Market for two years and ultimately decided that a cap wasnt a good idea. But with 17 million Adam And Margarets out there, feeling they are overpaying, price caps may be unfamiliar territory, especially for a conservative party, but it looks like comfortable political ground. Simon jack, bbc news. There is confusion tonight over labours policy on brexit. And Jeremy Corbyn said the question of brexit was settled but speaking to oui brexit was settled but speaking to our Political Editor later, he repeatedly refused to say whether labour would definitely take britain out of the european union. 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. 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 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. We have four weeks to have a chance to take 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 . Multitudes of new members, but what about the mainstream . You said dramatically there would be a reckoning if you become Prime Minister. A reckoning does not sound like they see people at the top paying more, it sounds more radical. Higher taxes for business . It is a reckoning in our society that big business should pay more in tax, Corporation Tax should not be lowered as the conservatives propose to give away more than 60 billion in tax cuts. How much more . You will have to wait until the manifesto. When you use language like promising a reckoning and talking about people taking back their wealth, to some, it sounds like the politics of envy. Not at all. I am saying that we all benefit when we all do better. We area benefit when we all do better. We are a rich country but unfortunately the riches are not fairly spread around and the levels of inequality are getting worse. We need to understand the anger that many people feel in this country. 6 million earning less than the living wage, 1 billion on zero hours contracts. Many on short term jobs and working, in communities that have seen little investment in 30 yea rs. Have seen little investment in 30 years. Their anger is palpable and real. Are you angry . Yes i get angry about poverty about injustice and inequality. Why do you believe you can wina inequality. Why do you believe you can win a general election from the left because the evidence under your leadership is the kind of things you have been saying, which can go down like a storm in a room like this, but the evidence is the wider electorate, the labour party has been going backwards. The evidence is, ask people question on wages, housing, on education, ask people the question on social care, ask them those questions, all of which are framed in our policies and you fine people say, i agree with that. That is what he wants to take on the road, with big promises to come. Voters in salford curious. Road, with big promises to come. Voters in salford curiouslj road, with big promises to come. Voters in salford curious. I do not think he as an individual but where he is coming from resonates with people in here and other parts of the country. There are that many people in the labour party who hate him,| people in the labour party who hate him, i would people in the labour party who hate him, iwould not people in the labour party who hate him, i would not say hey tim, but do not get on with him, i do not think there is a chance. It has been hard for labour to settle on the position on leaving the eu. The leader wants to draw a line. This election is not about brexit itself, that issue has been settled. The question now is what sort of brexit we want and what sort of country do we want written to be after that. His aides are adamant that settled means settled and a Labour Government would leave but when i asked him several times, the answer was not so clear. Does it mean if you are Prime Minister, whatever the deal on the table, we will leave the eu . There was a clear vote at the referendum a year ago but there is now the negotiations that have begun. That is not my question, my question is if you are Prime Minister, we will leave whatever is on the table at the end of negotiations . We win the election, we will get a good deal with europe. Can you say we would definitely leave . If you will not, there is a possibility things could change and we might end up differently at our options. The danger of the approach of the conservatives in their Megaphone Diplomacy on europe, our view is you have to talk to them, negotiate and recognise there is a lot of common interest, particularly in manufacturing. That is the process we are following. For all the leaders in this merry dance, every word and move matters. An 11 Year Old Girl thought to be from leicester has died after an incident at the Drayton Manor theme park in the west midlands. It is thought she fell into the water from one of the rides.

Coming up in Sportsday On Bbc News team skys Geraint Thomas moves into second in the Overall Standings at the giro ditalia after finishing third in todays fourth stage on mount etna. Another british rider, adam yates, is third. The former royal marine, who was jailed for killing a wounded taliban fighter in afghanistan, has given his first Broadcast Interview since being freed last month. Alexander blackman who was also known as marine a said he still doesnt know why he opened fire and called it a moment of madness. Hes been speaking to our correspondent, clinton rogers. I dont know why exactly i did it. Its still a moment of madness, i think, is the best description i can give. Yeah, its not exactly the proudest moment of my life. In the last three years, much has been has been said about alexander blackman. Today, his wife alongside him, he was having his say on a decision, in the heat of battle, that led to a murder charge. His actions, captured on helmet camera. There you are, shuffle off this mortal coin, you bleep . Nothing he wouldnt do to us. No. If you look at that video, it would seem plain to everyone that you knew what you were doing . Its a five minute section of an incident that took well over an hour and, to be fair, you can put quite a few different spins on whats said and, unless you were actually there, you dont know the full story. Obviously, i told my version of events when i was at trial. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and given, especially whats happened to us in our life, if you could go back, you would change thing. If he had a time machine and could go back and do things differently, he absolutely would. Blackmans conviction for murder led to protests. His wife, claire, led the campaign for his release, but her husband had offered her the chance to walk away from their marriage. I said, if she didnt want to stick around or wanted to part company at that point, or at any point throughout the process, it would be something id understand and id, sort of, wish her well with the rest of her life. So you were, basically, offering her the chance to walk away . Yes. Never crossed my mind, never once. I wouldnt have done anything differently. I know sometimes people said to me, you know, how are you doing this . How do you keep going . I dont really have an answer, but it wasnt an option to do anything else. Its only 11 days since he was released from prison, now they both say they need time to readjust to life as a couple. In seven years of marriage, theyve been apart more than theyve been together. Clinton rogers, bbc news, somerset. A man arrested close to the houses of Parliament Last month has been charged with terrorist offences. Khalid mohammed 0mar ali, whos 27 and from north london, is accused of preparing acts of terrorism. Hes also been charged with two counts of possessing explosives in 2012. A 33 year old british man, suspected of being a member of a gang that kidnapped and murdered western hostages in syria, has been convicted of terrorism. A court in turkey found the former London Underground worker aine davis guilty of being a member of so called Islamic State. Our home affairs correspondent, daniel sandford, was in court. Aine davis posing with a fighter in syria. Today, he became the first of the suspected beatles the infamous Islamic State gang from britain to be sent to prison. At this Turkish Court house, threejudges found him guilty guilty of being a member of is and sentenced him to seven and a half years in jail. As he was led from court, flanked by prison guards, i asked for his reaction he just swore at me. Hes the second alleged beatle to be taken out of action. His friend, mohammed emwazi, jihadijohn, was killed in a drone strike two years ago after beheading two british hostages and three americans. Aine davis was captured 18 months ago at this luxury seaside villa complex, a0 miles outside istanbul. He had risked secretly crossing the borderfrom is controlled parts of syria and travelling hundreds of miles to meet up with fellow is supporters here, but the Turkish Intelligence Services were watching, they moved in, and at last one of the suspected so called beatles, had been captured in this, the most unlikely of locations. The well known spanish newspaper journalist, javier espinosa, was one of the hostages held and tortured by the beatles in 2014. He was released before the beheadings began, but today was hugely relieved that aine davis was, finally, safely behind bars. I think he should face justice, whatever it is, it doesnt matter if its in england or turkey or whatever, he should be injailforever. Aine davis is suspected to be one of the four branded the beatles because of their english accents by the captives they held and beheaded. The most infamous was the killer, mohammed emwazi, orjihadi john. The others have been named by the Us State Department as Alexanda Kotey and el shafee elsheikh, both alive and still in syria. Javier espinosa remembers how one of the beatles, nicknamed george, always talked about how much he despised the west. He used to say, i hate you. I mean, it was a very common phrase that he used. We hate you. You dont know how i hate you. That hatred developed when all four men were radicalised in west london. Davis, a small time drug dealer, was once jailed for having an illegal gun, now hes serving seven and a half years in a turkish prison for being a member of Islamic State.
