And englands world cup rugby match against france is cancelled because of a typhoon heading forjapan. More in the sport after 11 30am. Good morning. Welcome to bbc newsroom live. The labour leader, Jeremy Corbyn, is in northampton setting out labours plans for transforming britain ahead of any forthcoming general election. Mr corbyn is expected to call borisjohnsons queens speech next week a farce, as no programme can be delivered with a majority of minus 45, and will say that the Prime Minister is using the queen to deliver a pre Election Party political broadcast for the conservative pa rty. Lets look at northampton. We havent got that picture at the moment, we had it a second ago, but we will be there when that speech begins. The Prime Minister will meet his irish counterpart leo varadkar later, in an attempt to find enough Common Ground to reach a brexit deal. Borisjohnson will meet the taoiseach in the north west of england at lunchtime. The prospect of agreement seems remote as each sides plan has been rejected by the other, and the eu summit, where any deal would have to be signed off, is just a week away. So what is the view from westminster . Our assistant political editor, norman smith, is there for us now. The two of them are talking, but there are no new proposals on the table, so what are the chances there will be anything emerging out of this that could transform into a deal in such a short space of time . I think the honest answer is the prospect is negligible because, as you say, there is nothing new substantive to discuss or to bridge the divide between them. The British Governments proposals, as we know, have been rejected by everyone and anyone in brussels and the eu hasnt come forward with a counter offer because they take the view it isnt up because they take the view it isnt up to them, its up to the British Government to come up with answers to the Northern Ireland border. So although the two men are meeting and although the two men are meeting and although they both want to get a deal, its hard to see, given the very short time frame left, how this will be possible, which is why mines are now turning to the likelihood of general election, if, as seems quite possible, we have to have a further delay to brexit. But i think mr corbyn is about to make his big speech now, setting out labours pitch for that election, and also saying that his party is now champing at the bit to have an election rather than to go down the road of trying to engineer another referendum. His favoured option is to go straight for a general election. That has caused some disquiet in his party from people fea rful disquiet in his party from people fearful that it risks turning, in effect, into a brexit election, which will drag out labours drown out labours anti austerity message, and also some nervousness as to how far labours rather precarious position on brexit, where it will try to negotiate another deal but wont necessarily back that deal but wont necessarily back that deal before putting it to another referendum, a bit of nervousness about how far that would be exposed in an election, and the polls are not good either, with the fear that borisjohnson could not good either, with the fear that Boris Johnson could emerge not good either, with the fear that borisjohnson could emerge with a clear majority, paving the way for a no deal brexit, exactly what labour are trying to avoid. So there is a degree of disquiet in labour ranks, and we heard it from Emily Thornberry a short time ago, when she was speaking on the Victoria Derbyshire programme, saying she feared exactly that, that the election risked turning into a quasi referendum. So there is disquiet about that. But lets have a listen to whatJeremy Corbyn is going to say. Thank you, diane, for that introduction, and thank you for the saints for giving me a space this morning i asked for a trial, but they said no chance, and rather unkindly they said i was too old. Its all right, i can cope. Can i say personally big thank you for diane for coming here today and chairing this rally, but also for the way in which shes coped with the way in which shes coped with the most unbelievable levels of abuse and harassment. Applause and the dignity with which she has all of that. There is no place in our politics for any form of harassment, abuse, misogyny or racism in any form. It simply devalu es racism in any form. It simply devalues the debate and the argument. Applause and i hope our public life can be conducted in a better way, where we do not indulge in that sort of behaviour. As far as i am concerned, im not getting in the gutter with anybody because there is not the time, space or inclination for that i want to get the policies issues out there for people to understand. Cani out there for people to understand. Can i also say a huge welcome to gareth and sally, our two candidates for southampton. Northampton. Go on, give them a chair. Cheering and applause. And we are going to be here a few times, all right, because i want to see them both elected, and can i say thanks to all the people coming here today. On monday, we will be treated to the farce of borisjohnsons conservative government, amid all of the full pomp and ceremony, setting out an agenda to parliament that he has no intention and no obvious means of delivering. Because this government is not going to put any legislation before parliament. It has a majority of 45. But there is one area where borisjohnson has a 100 record, and i commend him for it, he has been defeated on every vote he is put to Parliament Since becoming Prime Minister, and he is seeking a general election which will rapidly end the parliamentary session which the queen is about to open. Holding a queens speech before trying to call an election is a cynical stunt. He is using the queen to deliver a pre Election Party political broadcast for the conservative party. And it wasnt long ago thatjohnson was pretending not to want an election. Now he is pretending that it is labour that doesnt want one let me address him directly. Prime minister, we cant trust not to break the law, because youve got form. Applause we cant trust you not to use this period of an Election Campaign to drive our country off a no deal cliff edge that will crash our economy, destroy ourjobs and industries, create shortages of medicine and Food Supplies and endanger the Peace Process in Northern Ireland and damage the good friday agreement. So its simple. Obey the law, take no deal off the table, then lets have the election. We are ready, we are ready. There is only one reason it hasnt happened yet. We cant trust you. We might just be weeks away from the first queens speech of the Labour Government, and that queens speech will be very different. We will put forward the most radical, hopeful, people focused programme in modern times, a once in a generation chance to rebuild and transform our country. It will let the people decide on brexit, build an economy that works for all, change government so it works for you, tackle the Climate Emergency and reset our global role to one based on peace and human rights. So today i want to give you a preview of labours plan for real change. The first task of a Labour Government will be finally to get brexit sorted. After three years of tory failure, its time to take the decision out of the hands of politicians and let the people have final say, so a government will immediately legislate for a referendum. That referendum will not bea referendum. That referendum will not be a rerun of 2016. Nobody knew what a deal with the eu would look back then, and the prospect of no deal was dismissed out of hand by leading leave campaigners, including Boris Johnson and michael gove at the time. This time, the choice will be between leaving with a sensible deal and remaining in the eu, two clear options, both agreed with the eu. No false promises, no bluster. So, within three months of coming to power, a Labour Government will secure a sensible deal, based on the terms weve long advocated and discussed with the eu, trade unions and businesses, including a new customs union, a close Single Market relationship and guarantees, absolute guarantees of rights and protections and, of course, respect for the wonderful good friday agreement that was reached. Within six months of being elected, we will put that deal to a public vote alongside remain and, as Prime Minister, i will carry out whatever the people decide. There is nothing complicated about that position. Its really very simple. Labour trusts the people to decide. Labour is the only party that can and will deliver a public vote. The tories and lib dems have taken increasingly extreme and, frankly, undemocratic positions which have sown further divisions. Borisjohnsons conservatives are pushing the country conservatives are pushing the cou ntry towards conservatives are pushing the country towards no deal, for which they have no mandate, which is opposed by most of the public and which would open the way to a race to the bottom in our rights and protections, to get a one sided trade deal with donald trump stop but labour will get brexit sorted and bring our country together, because years of bickering over brexit have become a barrier to delivering the real change this country needs. To do that, we need an economy that works for the many, not just the few at the top. Todays gdp figures show our economy is contracting. We are on the brink of recession. Productivity is down, peoples Living Standards are lower today than ten years ago. That is the tory record. A labour covenant will rebuild communities across britain with investment on a scale our country has never known, bringing newjobs and fresh growth to every town, city and region and the nations which make up the uk. We will upgrade our creaking infrastructure with a £250 billion Public Investment into energy, housing and transport through a National Transformation fund, and establish a National Investment bank to make a further £250 billion available, through loans to businesses and cops to get our economy moving. Businesses and cooperatives. Grotesque inequality is the result of a deliberate effort to tip the balance of power away from workers towards the privileged elite that borisjohnsons conservatives represent. For too many people, work now means longer hours, more stress and greater insecurity. Pay is still lower than it was a decade ago. The chancellor, sajid javid, has said the minimum wage will not rise above £10 an hour until 2024, and only for those aged 21 and over. So a Labour Government will immediately raise the minimum wage to £10 an hourfor all will immediately raise the minimum wage to £10 an hour for all workers from the age of 16, and will deliver the biggest extension of rights for workers our country has ever seen. Applause we will create a new ministry of Employment Rights and give workers a seat at the cabinet table, and strengthen the democratic voice of the workforce through collective bargaining. Every workerwill the workforce through collective bargaining. Every worker will have full rights on day one of a newjob, entitling them to sick pay, holiday pay, parental leave and protection against unfair dismissal. A new work isprotection agency will ensure all of these rights are properly enforced, and will create a working Time Commission to reduce the average working hours to 32 per week within ten years and, to truly rebalance power in peoples lives, we need to go further. So labour will give workers a say and a stake in their workplace by ensuring a third of the seats on Company Boards are reserved for worker directors are by the workers. And we will require all Large Companies to create inclusive ownership of funds, giving workers a share the fruits of their labour by paying a dividend of up to £500 per year. Too much talent in our country is squandered, not through any fault of the individual but because austerity has closed down opportunities for people. I believe the point of government is to do the opposite, to open up opportunities and allow everyone to reach their full potential. And that begins with education. The tories have starved our schools of cash and, along with the lib dems, saddled a generation of young people with a lifelong debt burden. You know this yourselves from every school you go into. A Labour Government will create a National Education service, providing Free Education for eve ryo ne providing Free Education for everyone throughout life, as a right, a right to education, not a privilege to those that can afford it. Applause so we will scrap University Tuition fees, given our school is the funding they need. Cheering and applause. And enter the academies and Free Schools Programme and bring all our Schools Programme and bring all our schools into a democratically accountable schools into a democratically accou nta ble system, schools into a democratically accountable system, the family of local education that can be achieved. And the academies and free schools system. We will free our Young Children from the unnecessary our Young Children from the u nnecessa iy stress our Young Children from the unnecessary stress of over testing by ending key stage one and two tests, and we all know that early yea rs a re tests, and we all know that early years are actually the most important time of your life. We will rebuild what was a great achievement of the last Labour Government, which was sure start. Applause and introduce universal Free Childcare for all two, three and four micro year olds, so they get their great opportunity of socialising and learning together before they go on to school later on. For a decade, before they go on to school later on. Fora decade, our before they go on to school later on. For a decade, our National Health service has been run down, carved up and diced up, ready for privatisation. A Labour Government will reverse this process. We will repeal the tory lib dems privatisation act of 2012, otherwise known as the health and social care act. We will give our nhs the resources , act. We will give our nhs the resources, equipment and staff that it needs, which will mean more gps and nurses and reduced waiting times. And, under labour, prescriptions in england will be free, as they already are in wales and scotland. Applause and anyone thats been through the pain of friends or relatives that have got serious, life threatening conditions, we are going to make life saving medicines available to all by ensuring that Big Pharmaceutical Companies can no longer hold our nhs to ransom. Applause the prices the companies demand dont reflect the cost of the drugs they make. They simply charge as much as they can get away with. So we will use a compulsory licensing system to secure generic versions of patented medicines and create a publicly owned drugs manufacturer to supply cheaper medicines to our nhs, saving Health Service money and saving Health Service money and saving lives, and ensuring medicines are available to all, because some are available to all, because some are not and can only be bought at enormous cost from elsewhere. Only labour can be trusted with the future of our National Health service. After all, we are the ones that created it. Applause but health is other things as well. £8 billion has been taken from social care budgets of local authorities since 2010. Just reflect on that figure, £8 billion since 2010, only nine years ago. 87 people die every day while waiting for the ca re die every day while waiting for the care they need. Its a disgrace and, frankly, that we treat older people in this way has to change and has to be addressed. So we will introduce free personal care, providing help with daily tasks like bathing, washing and preparing meals. This will be the
