starting with. .. the times leads with the labour pa rty‘s cleat manifesto, the times leads with the labour party's cleat manifesto, saying they are facing a doctor to the guardian ta kes a are facing a doctor to the guardian takes a different angle saying the party is rallying around the proposals. the independent picks up the bank of england's latest forecast, which suggest incomes could get squeezed. the financial times notes that japan's soft bank is investing $500 million in a uk tech start—up. the nhs makes the mirror's lead story — with nurses urging the government to end a 1% paycap. the express focuses on what it calls a "dementia crisis", reporting that some families are being forced to pay £100,000 to cover ca re costs. let's begin on the first of our papers with the front page of the eye. labour's £50 billion wish list. ayes ha, eye. labour's £50 billion wish list. ayesha, presumably it hasn't actually been costed as that, that is their best guest. —— best guess. i think the diggers will be a slightly movable feast but it's not about the figures, it's about the bold political signal that jeremy corbyn was sending out today. we have had two years ofjeremy corbyn today, a lot of criticism, but his tea m today, a lot of criticism, but his team came out swinging today, absolute cobblers. some would say this was michael foot tribute act —— absolute jeremy corbyn. this was michael foot tribute act —— absolutejeremy corbyn. he has not shied away from putting forward his choices, his policies, and there is a very clear choice on the ballot paper. i think the labour party have managed to convert, everyone is talking about it and people are certainly talking about the boldness of it. tim, you get the front page of it. tim, you get the front page of the eye and then you get the alternative take on ayesha's which is fa ntasyland. boyle alternative take on ayesha's which is fantasyland. boyle the conservatives be licking their lips over this? i think this has worked well for the labour party over the la st 24 well for the labour party over the last 24 hours. they have had good publicity and jeremy corbyn looks like a happy warrior on the news tonight. it's a contrast with theresa may's quite scripted style but the one thing that isn't in the leak was the costings. i wonder whether there's a gap now between this leak and the publication which the tory party will fill. i'm sure that's what the tory campaign strategist will now do, so that perhaps on saturday or sunday's papers, the will be attacking corbyn before labour get their costings out. the tories will try to have the first strike. often a story that looks good for the first 24 hours can take on a different life afterwards. in a way, we're already starting to see this. the male are saying this will cost every family £4000 but i think the calculation that corbyn's team have taken on this is that the average family will not get bogged down in the costings of this, they will see things they like, and they think as well because there was a lot of talk of the media being biased against corbyn and things like that, and a lot of people get their news three facebook and social media, i think they are taking quite a bold move to try to make an emotional, populist appeal. you are doing a very good job on this. god loves a try. you are right about some of the press on this and there was acquired last night from margaret thatcher which was that the problem with socialism is that eventually socialists run out of other peoples money. i think that's problem with this. labour lost office because they look like they spent too much money and they couldn't control public finances. spent too much money and they couldn't control public financesli would say one thing on that. there was quite a howl of discontent about how much people feel on inequality at the moment. even though the dominant narrative is against corbyn, you can never say never. the polls have got it wrong in lots of elections. not this wrong. we will come back to that. we will look in passing at the front page of the guardian. if the eye is the positive and the daily mail is no negative, the guardian is looking for middle ground. that is a pretty straight headline. i am more worried that star wars is headline. i am more worried that starwars is 40. headline. i am more worried that star wars is 40. i headline. i am more worried that starwars is 40. i remember going headline. i am more worried that star wars is 40. i remember going to it as star wars is 40. i remember going to itasa star wars is 40. i remember going to it as a kid. the daily mirror might make you feel even older. the actor who played cat weasel has died. there's a childhood memory many people will have. he looks a bit likejeremy corbyn. people will have. he looks a bit like jeremy corbyn. right, you are offjeremy corbyn's christmas card list. although if he doesn't win number ten and there is every mac, it might be a job for him. it is interesting that in the phone in theresa may was in this evening, the first question came from a nurse. the nhs has always been a difficult issue for the conservative party at elections. even know so much has been cut during these years of austerity, plenty of budgets typically associated with the tories, the defence budget, the police budget, the conservatives have kept putting money over and above inflation into the nhs but it's still their achilles' heel. it's still something the public worries about. do you think they worry about it in a sense that they worry about it in a sense that they worry about it in a sense that they worry about the political damage that health is finished you can do to the conservatives? even though the conservative governments have probably been running the nhs longer than labour governments because they have been in office for longer?” think they should worry about it. we have been fortunate not to have extreme winter is the last few winters get the nhs has still been at the brink. we only need a bad winter in the next few years and it really will be tested to its limits. i think the health service is one of thoseissues i think the health service is one of those issues that is very symbolic of the labour party and people a lwa ys of the labour party and people always fill the labour party is more likely to look after the nhs. and that sometimes constrains what the labour party feel they can do. in terms of having a radical agenda and talking about modernising the nhs. i think the nhs will loom large in this campaign. brexit is not proving to be as much of a lightning conductor issue as they thought. i think health and education and things like social care will be very important. social care i agree with you. in the copeland by—election, the labour seat held by them for decades, labour ran very tough scare stories about the local hospital and the tories still won. i think that the tories still won. i think that the leadership issue and also the nuclear issue. i think there's a chance that labour have overplayed this card and made it too political. true, but there is also a lot of public sympathy for... when you have stories of nurses writing to the prime minister talking about their pay, when you hear that nurses have got to go to payday loan companies and to food banks, begging the prime minister that they are in poverty, thatis minister that they are in poverty, that is very emotive. it is interesting that you brought that up because i've put this to a party spokesman from labour and the conservatives. i said, party spokesman from labour and the conservatives. isaid, labouryou are saying vote against the tories because the prime minister has said it may not be appropriate to keep the maternity unit at this hospital and people should perhaps travel further. if you vote labour you will be sending a message, but their policy wasn't necessarily to do anything different and equally their policy decision would be made by health service managers not by politicians. similarly, the conservatives were saying our local candidate supports keeping this hospital whatever the local candidate might have said. that was equally dishonest because they weren't making the decision either. what is it about health that politicians think they can play these games are public expectations oi’ these games are public expectations or is it ourfault these games are public expectations or is it our fault as well?” these games are public expectations or is it our fault as well? i think it is difficult because it impossible to be giving the honest about the health service challenges that are faced. even an infinite amount of money might not be enough because of the challenge of the health service. it's such an emotive issue because what's hard for any political party is when you are essentially in a short—term cycle, to look at the health service properly, to really review it and make it fit for the future, join it up make it fit for the future, join it up with social care, have prevention strategies and things, that's radical thinking that's probably 15 oi’ radical thinking that's probably 15 or 20 years down the track. and when there are financial restraint as difficult as well. i think that's labour's problem, the financial restraints. it's a card the conservatives are good at playing, you can't look after the national health service, you don't look after the economy properly i think that's why it won't work the jeremy corbyn because people don't think he's got a basic level of economic competence. i don't know if people think that theresa may has the level of empathy to look after nhs.” think that theresa may has the level of empathy to look after nhs. i have to ask you, are you missing being in the thick of it? are you missing not being involved in the campaign at party headquarters this time round because you have both been in the past? i have to say i have and that's partly because working on an election campaign is that a fa ntastically election campaign is that a fantastically interesting thing for all the good things and bad things that go wrong. there's a lot of adrenaline and it's exciting. not much actually because i think the campaign is quite dull. i think the exciting thing will be afterwards, potentially the ructions within the labour party, theresa may getting together whether —— getting to grips with the brexit negotiations.“ together whether —— getting to grips with the brexit negotiations. if she wins. i think shejust with the brexit negotiations. if she wins. i think she just might. that's it for the papers tonight. don't forget you can see the front pages of the papers online on the bbc news website. it's all there for you — 7 days a week at bbc.co.uk/papers — and if you miss the programme any evening, you can watch it later on bbc iplayer. thank you, ayesha and tim. good evening. we have started to see a change taking place. it is starting to come up from the south thanks to this area of low pressure. we have got rain moving its way ever northward and this is bringing in warm airfrom a long way northward and this is bringing in warm air from a long way south. warm and humid airwhich warm air from a long way south. warm and humid air which will be noticeable across parts of england and wales over the next few days. this cloud has been bringing its way m, this cloud has been bringing its way in, bringing showers and thunderstorms with it. it's bringing some rain with it and there's potential for thunder and lightning. notice how the rain creeps its way into northern ireland overnight. most of england and scotland stays dry but there will be cloud in the farand dry but there will be cloud in the far and some potential drizzle. further south, not a cold night at all, but it will be pretty cloudy in the morning. some of that cloud will be low. some places might see a few brea ks be low. some places might see a few breaks in the cloud but generally it's a cloudy picture with some chalice in the morning. northern england, it's an east—west split —— split. right across the western side of scotland, some sunshine, but graver fellow cloud on the increase in the eastern side. eight or 9 degrees in the eastern side of scotland, 17 or 18 degrees in the western side. scattered showers and sunny spells, with some parts of england at 219 20 degrees. 15 or 16 for class ca re england at 219 20 degrees. 15 or 16 for class care and belfast. at the weekend, there will be some spare us of sunshine, but not the whole time and by sunday things will be turning and by sunday things will be turning a good till fresh air. saturday, not too many showers for the midlands, the southeast or the east, with most of the showers up towards the north—west. saturday night, we will all see rain for a time, that this group and then fresh air follows behind. sunday will be a day of sunny spells and chalice once again. temperatures still doing well but the air itself will be fresher. this is bbc news. i'm shaun ley. the headlines at 11pm: labour's election manifesto is formally approved by the party leadership and will be published within days. jeremy corbyn says it contains policies that will be "very popular". an offer that will transform the lives of many people in our society and ensure that we have a government in britain onjune the 8th that will work for the many, not the few. the bank of england downgrades its forecast for economic growth this year, with a warning of a squeeze on consumer spending. official figures suggest waiting times for some nhs services in england are the worst in five years. coming up on newsnight: the politics, policy and reaction to labour's manifesto so far. is it as radical as we have been told?
