You can see, they are the really the backdrop of the stage, sitting listening two of these speeches. Chris makes the point is you can see that most of them are in conventional political gear. They have their smart clothes on, their suits and ties. Except that is for sir keir starmer, who has lost his tie and jacket and he has rolled up his sleeves nearly to his elbows. Chris our Political Editor says it is not hot in there. He says this is a deliberate look from sir keir focused he says on getting stuff done. We know there will be no new policies, it will be sir keir setting out six pledges as his pitch before what we know will be a general election probably this year. He is promising to deliver economic stability, that nhs waiting times, create a new Border Security, and, set up a publicly owned firm called Great British energy, crackdown on anti social behaviour, and also recruit 6500 new teachers. As you can see there are a large number of people in there, watching these speeches. The conservatives have already said sir keir� s speech amounts to a 16th relaunch. The deputy leader Angela Rayner has already spoken and said the event was to announce the first steps for a changed labour party, which she said was offering a radical and responsible plan for britains future. She said m years of chaos and decline would lead many people feeling cynical, adding that tory decline was a choice by the governing party. That is what Angela Rayner has been saying. We will be back to here sir keir� s speech but we already have a special live page p we already have a special live page up and running on the bbc news website and that has some of the highlights from the speeches already given along with analysis from our team of experts, including chris mason who is in essex. You can find that on the bbc website. 0ron the 0r on the bbc news app. We will be back live as soon as sir keir takes to the stage for this breakfast. But first Junior Doctors in england have entered Mediation Talks with the government aimed at ending their long running dispute over pay and conditions. There have been no formal discussions between the parties since negotiations collapsed in december. 0ur Health Editor hugh pym reports. What do we want . Fair pay when do we want it . Now its been a bitter and prolonged pay dispute with ten rounds of strikes by Junior Doctors. Adding together all the walk outs by Health Unions in england, more than 1. 4 million Hospital Appointments and operations were cancelled. There have been few signs before now of any possible resolution of the dispute between the government and Junior Doctors. But the fact that both sides are prepared to sit down for talks with an independent mediator suggests a willingness to consider compromise. The doctors union, the bma, called for a 35 pay rise phased in over a few years. Ministers awarded an average ofjust under 9 for the last Financial Year and suggested anything higher would be unaffordable. The process will not involve the Conciliation Service acas and the outcome will not be binding on either side. But the bma, which still has a mandate to stage further walk outs, said an independent mediator could help break the logjam. The health secretary, victoria atkins, said she was pleased that mediation would take place and it was a significant step forward which could see an end to strike action. Last month, consultants in england agreed to a deal to end their pay dispute with the government. In a separate dispute, the Welsh Government is in talks over pay with Junior Doctor representatives and in Northern Ireland a 48 hour strike byJunior Doctors is planned next week. Hugh pym, bbc news. We are awaiting that speech by The Labour Leader sir keir starmer in the next half hour or so. You can see it on the right hand side of the screen. The Shadow Ministers talking, Yvette Cooper at the moment, the shadow home secretary, addressing the event, as soon as sir keir takes the stage we will cross back to hear what he has to say. Residents across south devon are being told to boil tap water following an outbreak of sickness and diarrhoea. More than 20 cases have been confirmed by the Health Security agency. South west water said it is confident that boiled water is safe and issued the advice as a precaution. Heidi davey reports. What a difference 2a hours can make, from supplies being safe to Bottled Water being handed out. By lunchtime, there was anger. South west water confirmed advanced tests overnight had found traces of cryptosporidium in its supply chain, leaving residents like Harriet Furious that precautionary measures had not been put in place earlier. I have a seven month old daughter as well as a four year old boy who was actually very unwell last week. And they said to me, categorically, the water is safe, you should continue to use it as a normal. And we are less than 2a hours later, we have been notified that the water is not safe to drink. They are meant to be providing a safe service. We dont have the luxury of being able to pick or choose water services. They are the only option that we have, we have to use them. Any other business would go completely bankrupt in this situation but they seem to be protected. They are messing with peoples lives, their incomes, people have not been able to work because they have been ill or caring for others. But most of all, the impact on peoples health. South west water told us today it was only notified of the issue within the last few days. The uk Health Security agency has confirmed a number of cases has risen to 22 with that number expected to keep going up. We are always sampling our water and monitoring the quality of the water to ensure that it meets the high levels of standards required in the uk. So we knew that the water leaving our treatment works met all the standards and requirements and there was no indication of cryptosporidium in the water. People are arriving from all over brixham to pick up free Bottled Water. This morning, it was only being issued to vulnerable residents and there was a huge lorry here dispatching it. This afternoon, another huge lorry has arrived with more supplies and that has now opened to everyone. We have not really understood what has been happening, because we were told at the weekend it was fine, now were told its not fine, so, its not very clear. And the disruption for those residents looks set to continue as South West Water works with other agencies to locate the source of the outbreak.

Lets check on some other news. When 74 year old Nelson Shardey applied for a passport five years ago, he was shocked to be told by the home office that he had no right to be in the uk. Mr shardey, who was born in ghana, has lived in the uk for more than 45 years, running his own newsagent� s in merseyside for more than 30 of them. Hes now been told he must pay thousands of pounds to be allowed to stay, and he wont get permanent residence for another decade. Our Home Affairs CorrespondentDaniel Sandford went to meet him. After living in britain for 47 years, retired newsagent Nelson Shardey finds himself in an expensive legal tussle with the home office, despite a lifetime of paying taxes and serving his local community. I cannot afford to pay any part of the money they are asking. Does it feel fair . In my eye, there is no fairness in this at all. It shouldnt be. There is no fairness at all. He came to britain to study in 1977. Hes worked for mothers pride, kiplings cakes and bendix chocolates. He was given a Bravery Award for tackling a robber armed with a baseball bat. He has two british sons. But when nelsons mother died in ghana five years ago and with his sons help, he applied for a british passport, he discovered the home office thought he had no right to live in the uk. 0fficials asked him to start the expensive ten year process of applying for permission to live here permanently. I dont understand why this force at all. Because ive put my life, my whole self into this country. Ijust thought it was a joke. His son, jacob, an expert in the human heart, told me the whole thing was ridiculous. But why would he need to go and start this ten year route when hes been here since 1977 . Hes been here longer than the people who have been alive who are running his case. Nelsons lawyer, nicola burgess, is taking the home office to court, arguing that he should have been regarded as an exceptional case. In the meantime, hes having to pay thousands of pounds to access nhs care. He has to pay the Immigration Health | surcharge every two and a half years| and this is kind of a tax that is levied against immigrants to access the nhs and this is obviously on top of the taxes that nelson has paidl throughout his career and he is very worried about whether hes going to be able to afford that Nelson Shardey is still hoping that the home office will back down and let him remain without paying more than £17,000 to stay where hes lived his whole adult life.

These are the things that labour want to say they will focus on if it were to win the next election. These are not new pledges, these are things labour has said already. But what it is trying to do is narrow the focus of what it is eyeing out, to have some things that people can have in their minds. The content of it is not new so much. What we are seeing is a new focus on the presentation, on this and honing in on what they want the message to be, and also the style of campaign we are going to see.
