should kill off a lot of the showers through tomorrow, lighterwinds, but the blue is hanging around the country, the arctic air we had early in the week so it will make it feel cooler than what we expect this time in june. we cooler than what we expect this time injune. we start off with clear skies, some sunshine, bit of mist and fog across western areas through tomorrow morning, a few showers across eastern areas, looks like it will be another day of sunshine and show�*s, the cloud...

obsessed with this. weve talked about this a lot on the weekend newscast that david cameron, because of his former job, can sort of slip in and out of that role very, very easily. some people might raise an eyebrow and say, "oh, perhaps too easily." but, you know, as you say, actually for prime minister, youre trying to run the country as well as run an election campaign. that is a challenge that theyve got that actually the leader of the opposition doesnt have, you know, before too lo...

welcome to viewers on bbc two, bbc iplayer and bbc news. lets start with this headline which you also heard at the top of the programme. bbc announces dates for election tv debates. yes, the first programme is this friday evening, seven parties having been invited. there is a question time debate later with the largest four parties, and a head—to—head debate between the prime minister and labour leader keir starmer onjune 26. as well as the bbc election debates, stv are also holdin...

Coverage of national and international news, including breaking stories. Asking you questions about this criminal matter, you dont have to be sworn under oath. The second that you talk to them and that you lie to them and they can prove that you lied to them, in other words, that you knew what you were telling them was in fact a lie, then they can charge you with that. So thats something thats also been included here in this case. Overall, a 30page indictment, this is a pretty significant step f...

Grassroots members happy. i think the weird thing about this to me is that the tories had first mover advantage in this election and they went with that first mover advantage but hadnt sort out sorted out all of their candidates. and i think that they... you know, you can see why labour have had a scramble. you could see why the tories shouldnt have had a scramble because they are the ones who had a heads up, but theyve had a scramble too. but candidate selection can often be very messy, so its ...

Has been using throughout today to try to move on, essentially, from these types of rows, but this resignation this afternoon does not help to die down these rumours. at the end of her resignation letter, faiza shaheen suggested she would be making an announcement tomorrow. if it was that she would be standing as an independent candidate, it would again make this royal rumble on into yet another day when the labour party is hoping to move on and talk about their policies —— would make this r...

Diane abbott issue. there is clearly tension in the back benches of the labour party. keir starmer is trying to present a united front, i think it will fragment quickly. there are all sorts of issues but this is politics, it happens in every party. what i resent is when labour try and present this as something as unique to the conservative party when we have differences. the diane abbott thing shows that is not the case. this is a unique period in british history — this is a unique period in b...

Characterisation of what is happening. i think personally the diane abbott question, whether she was going to be allowed to stand again, that was handled badly by the party. i dont think that anybody around keir starmer or within labour would claim that that was handled well. but i think more broadly when you look at what is going on with labours candidate selection, it is very clear that some candidates have resigned late and some candidates of keir starmer�*s choice are being put forward for...

And gets involved are well and truly over, thats what corbyn did and ended badly. you said it was a matter for the nec on candidate selection and you avoided having a view becausejeremy corbyn expressed a view and that leads to a very slippery slope. now, yesterday you gave your view. she said you said she was free to stand. so whats changed 7 is a leader now allowed to intervene in these processes? well, i dealt with that issue yesterday. today is about taking our argument to the country and ge...
