after marine le pen�*s far—right national rally party triumphed in the first round of snap parliamentary elections. president macron has called for centre and left wing parties to unite ahead of the next round of voting, which will determine who controls the country's national assembly. according to the interior ministry, national rally and its allies gained 33% of the popular vote. the leftwing new popular front came second with 28%. president emmanuel macron�*s centrist alliance reached 20%. with this report, here's our paris correspondent andrew harding. cheering. a dramatic win yesterday for france's national rally. the party was, for years, considered too extreme for most french voters, with its anti—immigration, eurosceptic platform and its links to the kremlin. but, last night, the rn, as it's known here, secured more than a third of all votes. the party's leader is marine le pen, who has her eye on winning the french presidency next. she told the country it had nothing to fear from a right—wing, rn—led government. but there is a second round of voting here next weekend and things could still change. after yesterday's vote, president emmanuel macron called for centrist and left—wing parties to form a united front to keep the rn out of power. will it work? it's going to be a struggle. and all this in the middle of paris's preparations for the olympic games later this month. many french are worried about their country's deep political polarisation. the road ahead will become clearer in a week's time, when a second round of voting will determine france's future. that could be months of political deadlock. it could be a seismic political shift to the hard right, with huge implications for the country and the continent. andrew harding, bbc news, paris. my colleague, mark lowen, has been following developments from paris and sent this update. and so it has happened. france's national rally, the far right, winning the first round of this parliamentary election. all the opinion polls before the vote had suggested this was going to happen, and indeed it has taken place. now there will be horse trading between the opposition candidates as to who drops out and whether they can rally behind a united candidate to try to stop the far right in next sunday's second—round election from getting an absolute majority. but the centre, the left, they are disunited. there is a lot of bad blood between them. can they rally behind a united front? this is the far right national rally party. a party that is hard line on immigration, for example, wants to stop the automatic right of foreigners born here in france to get french nationality. they want to give priority to french people over immigrants in terms of social welfare spending. so there is going to be a huge push from the opposition to try to block the far right from getting that absolute majority, potentially forcing france into a hung parliament and potentially paralysis as well. remember, president macron came to power here pledging to revive the political centre, to bridge right and left. what he's actually done and what has happened under his watch, is to polarise and push people into the extremes of right and left. there will be a lot of people tonight who will be furious at president macron for a gamble that has misfired, a trap that perhaps has ensnared himself, and indeed france as well, will have huge implications, potentially, for this country and for the european union as a whole. and could, if this were to be replicated on sunday, lead to this country having its first far—right government since the second world war. mark lowen. more on the french elections on the website. england are through to the quarterfinals of the euros after a dramatic last gasp goal saved gareth southgate�*s team from a humiliating defeat by slovakia. jude bellingham's stunning overhead kick took the match into extra time — leaving captain harry keane to score the eventual winner. here's our sports editor, dan roan. when the ball hit his foot, i got down on both my knees. i nearly cried. commentator: helped on. and it's in! jude bellingham! unbelievable. deflected back in for kane! it's all about a goal. if you attack, you win games. attack, attack, attack. now hear the lions roar! this — how much it meant to the fans after england kept their euros alive in the most dramatic fashion. but amid the celebrations, there was also plenty of cause for concern. what a chance this is. earlier, underdogs slovakia had taken a deserved lead. england's so—called superstars producing their latest lacklustre display in an unconvincing campaign. manager gareth southgate's 99th game in charge turning into a nightmare. but with just seconds of added time left and as all hope seemed lost, england were saved by a moment of brilliance. and it's in! jude bellingham! and, remarkably, less than a minute into extra time, sub ivan toney found kane for the winner. now hear the lions roar. with the match turned on its head, a stunned slovakia had nothing left. england through with a performance that lacked so much, but delivered the thrilling finale that saved them. i mean, i'm just so proud of the spirit that the players have shown. um, everybody that we put into the game played a part and helped us to get over the line, helped us to change the game right at the end. and without that, you've no chance of succeeding at anything. i can't even describe that feeling. representing england. european championships, round of 16, 95 minutes, you look up at the clock and think could be going home here. but there's players saying to each other one minute to go, we still believe, we're still going to get one more chance. and there's that inner fight and spirit in us. so what did the fans here make of england's last—gasp comeback? awful performance. lucky to get the win, honestly, let's be realistic. second half we turned up. and jude bellingham, last kick of the game — unbelievable. commentator: they are on their way. but as the chant goes, how they got there, i don't know. having come so close to what would have been seen as an unthinkable defeat, england will know they have to improve if they're to overcome switzerland in the quarterfinal on saturday. but they'll also hope the togetherness and spirit they displayed in one of their most dramatic ever comebacks can be capitalised on. dan roan, bbc news, gelsenkirchen. let's speak to our correspondent john watson, who's in essen for us this morning. absolutely incredible match, wasn't it, so stressful in the last 20 or so minutes?— it, so stressful in the last 20 or so minutes? england only had 60 seconds on _ so minutes? england only had 60 seconds on the _ so minutes? england only had

effort they had on target when jude bellingham scored remarkably, that incredible moment, extraordinary player who produces extraordinary player who produces extraordinary moments, that equalising goal and proceeding harry kane's winner. england can look ahead to the quarterfinal with switzerland on saturday. gareth southgate, the england manager, will know they have to improve. the performance still wasn't quite there last night. undoubtedly, knock football produces memorable moments, extra ordinary moments. england, it is fair to say, produced the most extraordinary moment of them all at this tournament so far. no surprises it wasjude this tournament so far. no surprises it was jude bellingham this tournament so far. no surprises it wasjude bellingham right this tournament so far. no surprises it was jude bellingham right at the heart of it. it was a remarkable goal from a heart of it. it was a remarkable goalfrom a remarkable player. absolutely, thank you very much. john watson who is in essen. i'm afraid the sound quality not as good as the bellingham goal, apologies for that. as the bellingham goal, apologies forthat. let's as the bellingham goal, apologies for that. let's take you quickly to the live page, if you want to read more about what happened in the england match and read about the fans�* phone and that my colleague nikki campbell enjoyed a bit earlier, you can go there. a really good article showing one of the better sports and back pages, the daily express which says saved by the bell, hilarious headline referring tojude bellingham's very, very late goal. there are a few quotes from jude, who gave a post match press conference. he said playing for england should be one of the most proud thinks of a footballer because my career but often it is quite difficult. proud things. there is high, intense pressure, the fans expect a lot from us, regardless of what is happening in recent tournaments. that is the latest from the football. now let's take you to 5live. if they don't win a majority of seats in scotland, if you don't win this election in scotland, does that mean an independence referendum is of the table for the duration of this to parliament and whatjohn swinney comes back to is the scottish parliamentary elections and there is a majority of msps in favour of independence. it will be interesting if you ask about that today, what his response will be but he has certainly been pushed on that issue and that is one of the reasons why the snp are so keen to win this election in scotland and to try and maintain their status as the third biggest party at westminster. studio: bbc news and two havejoined us. john swinney hasjoined us. the first minister, leader of the snp, one of our leader phone—ins. speaking to katie hunter, bbc scotland correspondence laying out the issues. while we wait forjohn swinney, we can get under the bonnet, the tartan bonnet i was wearing just a couple of weeks ago watching our team. what about energy, oil? what about the north—east of scotland? i know kate forbes, the deputy first minister said they are somewhere between the tories and labour on the transition, would that be right?— would that be right? yeah, that's riuht. i would that be right? yeah, that's right. i mentioned _ would that be right? yeah, that's right. i mentioned earlier - would that be right? yeah, that's right. i mentioned earlier that . would that be right? yeah, that's i right. i mentioned earlier that some of the key battlegrounds between the snp and labour are in the central belt. if you go up to the north—east, it looks very much like a race between the conservatives and the snp. in the north—east of scotland, of course, energy, oil, and gas is a big issue. the conservatives are very much in favour of issuing more new oil and gas licenses. labour are at the opposite end of the spectrum, they have said no, that is not what they want to do. the snp have said that they are somewhere in between. they want to look at this issue on a case—by—case basis. want to look at this issue on a case-by-case basis. interference studio: 0h- _ case-by-case basis. interference studio: 0h- i—

scottish government was consulting on a presumption against new oil and gas licences in the north sea. the position they are taking is that it needs to be on a case—by—case basis, on an evidence basis. they are saying that you have the conservatives on one hand who are very much in favour of these new oil and gas licences and labour at the opposite end, saying they are somewhere in the middle. we will see how that plays out with voters in the north—east of scotland, like i said. it seems to be a race in some seats between the conservatives and the snp. mr seats between the

mrjohn swinney will be | with us very shortly but give us an idea of the state of the polls in scotland at the moment, katie. yeah, worth going back, like i was saying earlier, the last general election, the snp were so dominant, winning 48 seats. labour won just one single scottish seat. at the polls have very much closed the gap between the two parties. the most recent polls are actually suggesting that labour are ahead of the snp. these are just that labour are ahead of the snp. these arejust opinion that labour are ahead of the snp. these are just opinion polls, lots of health warnings come attached and caveats but both snp and labour expecting some really closely fought battles in constituencies particularly in the central belt. one of the key moments during this campaign was during the scottish leaders' debate, i am sure you were watching it, but one tactic the snp have been consistently using, and i am surejohn swinney will go back to this in the interview, is that there's not much to separate keir starmer and rishi sunak. there's not much to separate keir starmerand rishi sunak. he there's not much to separate keir starmer and rishi sunak. he will say there's not that much difference between the conservatives and labour. there was one point in that scottish leaders' debate wherejohn swinney was putting anna sarwar, the scottish labour leader, saying there would be more austerity if labour get in. and he said, read my lips, they will be no austerity under labour. when you speak tojohn swinney later, i suspect that is a theme he will be pushing.- swinney

the 25th anniversary of the formal opening of the scottish parliament. we have been able to take some decisions. but there are lots of other decisions we need to take. on anne's point, i want to bring people together, that is what i said i would do as first minister. i think we can do that by a respectful debate where we listen to each other with care and understanding and come to our conclusions. lots has changed since the referendum in 2014. not least of which is the fact that we were forced to leave the european union against our will as a consequence of the brexit referendum. in 2016. it is important that scotland has a chance to decide our own constitutional future because they were so many issues which are reserved for westminster, which are reserved for westminster, which i think we

they like your policies, if they like scotland being represented at westminster, a big scottish presence, but they aren't in favour of a referendum? i’ee in favour of a referendum? i've alwa s in

another point here. if you say that they can vote for you, but they don't want a referendum, how can you possibly claim that all votes for the snp i vote for independence? ii claim that all votes for the snp i vote for independence?- claim that all votes for the snp i vote for independence? if you look at what i vote for independence? if you look at what i have _ vote for independence? if you look

election campaign, i have been making the point that in 2021, the scottish parliament was elected with the majority of msps who are committed to having a referendum on independence. they were committed to independence. they were committed to independence. that is what we were encouraged and advised to do, to ask the public for that mandate and they gaveit the public for that mandate and they gave it to us in 2021. i think that mandate should be taken forward and implemented as a consequence of this election. this election gives us the opportunity to intensify the pressure for that to happen and that is what i would want to happen in the aftermath of the snp winning this election.— the aftermath of the snp winning this election. �* ., , ., ., this election. 0k, anne, do you want to

scotland to support us. so that we can deliver on the expectations of the public. i look at some of the things we have done, families in scotland for example benefit from a doubling of early learning and child care provision, which has been delivered by this snp government. young people go to university and they are able to get their education without paying tuition fees, which is in marked contrast to the rest of the united kingdom. our infrastructure, anne talked about the construction projects, the scottish government has delivered a huge range of construction projects, the queensway project on time and on budget. this morning, as i came to peterhead, a project that was promised for a0 years but never delivered but delivered by the snp. the borders railway, a first railway into the borders in over a0 years. there is a whole host of different achievements the scottish government has under its belt. in addition to the fact that we have the best performing accident and emergency system in the health service. although we have problems in the united kingdom and we have had that for the last nine years. there are points we are delivering on that i am conscious, always, of the importance of building that trust with the public in scotland. back to jack, it is so important that people are prepared to vote for us, to make sure that we can take forward that agenda. qm.

was passed with support from members of all political parties in the scottish parliament, all five political parties. the uk government decided to intervene on that. the courts looked at that question and the courts found that the uk government had the right to stop that legislation. i believe in the rule of law, i accept thatjudgment. the question then arises as to whether the incoming labour government would change the stance of the united kingdom government. i don't know what the answer to that question is, that is a matterfor the incoming labour government, which i expect to be in it

aftermath of covid, where we had such a delay and interruption to health care procedures, and then because we had that delay, demand increased because there was search... people obviously became more frail or had more difficulty as a consequence in the gap during covid. we are trying to get our way through the waiting list as possibly as we can. we have increased the health resources to the nhs by asking people to pay more tax, there is an higher wages. we have taken significant steps to increase the resources available to the health service, but that doesn't solve the problem must has about getting to treatment quicker than 10a weeks. i am sorry about that delay, matt. if there's anything i can do to address there's anything i can do to address the circumstances you have put to me, i

people because of delays. and thatis some people because of delays. and that is a significant factor we've got to try and address by getting those resources into the health service to make sure we can tackle waiting times. that is one of the issues i've raised in the election campaign. we've got to have more investment in our public services because i think the circumstances we are facing with

i apologise to people. there are a number of different components to the question. there is the issue of the question. there is the issue of the vessels. we have a new brussels that are being builtjust now. there are two that should have been delivered —— new vessels. they are late, and i am sorry they are late, but it was a contact issue to the yard which should have been delivered a lot earlier than it was. we have two new ferries, and the first will be here later this year. those vessels are well advanced and will be delivered on time and budget. that is big investment going into those ferries. also in terms of infrastructure, correct me if i'm wrong, i think one of the ports there, there is construction work going on there now to strengthen the ports. when it comes to the ferry service. thejudgment about ports. when it comes to the ferry service. the judgment about whether ferry sails is a judgment only for the master, and they have to determine whether it is safe and appropriate to run. that's not for me to make, nor should it be, because i don't have the expertise. the master must take a judgment based on the safety of passengers and cargo in terms of the sailings that are undertaken. i want to make sure, and we look at this very closely with government, as to whether or not there are any knock—on effects of ferries not sailing, for example, forfood sailing, for example, for food supplies sailing, for example, forfood supplies and services to particular islands. we keep a close monitor on it, and arrangements are in place to make sure it can be addressed properly. 0n the last point, yes, isla does generate a huge amount of revenue from whiskey. it is only appropriate the needs of islanders are taken forward with an effective ferry service, and obviously the whiskey industry needs to get its product to market as well. a ferry service has to meet those needs. that is why isla has the priority for the additional vessels coming forward. .,

thursday's election, and the parties are making their final push for votes. rishi sunak is warning against what he calls "an unaccountable and unchecked labour government". labour is launching a new advert — saying the real danger is waking up to five more years of conservative government. the lib dems are pledging to reverse planned cuts to payments made to bereaved families who lose a parent. and nigel farage has told a reform uk rally that his party will become the voice of opposition. liberal democrat leader sir ed davey�*s first visit of the day is to eastbourne borough football club. he's been taking part in what had been described as an "extreme activity". we can now reveal that activity is a bungee jump. there he goes. that was a full on screen. rather him than me. it's the third day of his final battle bus tour of the campaign taking him from john 0'groats to lands end as well as south east england. there is a serious side to all of the fern. today's policy push is on payments for bereaved families. that is ed davey during the germ, hanging upside down, a rush of blood to the head for him —— doing the jump. within the wider general election it's the battleground seats where the fiercest campaigning is taking place. today we're focussing on two constituencies: south cambridgeshire is currently held by the conservatives — but with redrawn boundaries, the liberal democrats say they're increasingly confident of taking it. and weston—super—mare, also held by the conservatives at the last election — but being targeted by labour this time around. joining me now from cambridge is bbc�*s kate moser andon, and in weston—super—mare it's pete simson from bbc bristol. thank you forjoining us. let me ask you, kate, tell me about cambridgeshire, because the

campus behind me, and addenbrooke's hospital, but it's a rural constituency, made up of villagers in the south cable to countryside. what makes up came ajer interesting is it has become a key election battlefield —— south cambridgeshire. the conservatives won last time, but the lib dems got more than a0%. at a local level, 35 out of 35 district council seat are held by liberal democrats. the party also confident of games here, they chose saab cambridgeshire is located to unveil ed davey�*s battle bus. he said he was very confident of making progress. whether that will be the case remains to be seen because as you say, the constituency has been significantly redrawn as part of boundary changes. so much so, the previous mp here is campaigning in a different constituency, up the road. we don't

villages which would be impacted by the proposed route into cambridge. some people i've spoken to say they don't want it, they worry about the impact on the environment and farming community and some people don't want trucks built if they don't benefit from a train station. east west rail would bring much needed connectivity, however, to cambridge. it is an issue which has divided the candidates.

getting ready. as shania twain so memorably sings to have a little fun. i feel like a woman. and the queen of country didn't disappoint at her glastonbury debut. and there she is, on stage somewhere way across this sea of pink cowboy hats and leopard print outfits. a true legend in the legends slot here at glastonbury. in a year where female voices have sung out across the festival. after dua lipa headlined on friday, other women artists have been wowing the glastonbury faithful, including little simz and paloma faith. when sza takes to this stage later, it will be the first time well, they're always telling us, well, you don't draw. you know, it'sjust like anything else. there's a lot of women in music today. there's a lot of voices. and i think that it's important that you just keep going forward. help me sing. award—winning camila cabello is 27 years old, with four albums and all too aware of the sexism in her business. there's definitely times in hindsight where i've been like, oh, ifeel like i maybe have gotten treated differently in the studio, or maybe my voice hasn't been taken as seriously. out of that hardship comes, you know, these incredible artists like sza, like dua lipa. we put on like incredible shows because we work ten times harder. for more than 25 years, shania twain's held the record for the world's best selling album by a female artist, and she's certainly showcased her pulling power today. katie razzall, bbc news, glastonbury. now it's time for a look at the weather. hello. thanks forjoining me. july, statistically, is our warmest month of the summer, but this july, at least the beginning, is looking very different. mother nature has decided to put a pause on the summer heat. it's going to be rather on the cool side, even really windy at times in the north of the uk. and of course there is some rain on the way. so let's have a look at the forecast for monday. a couple of weather fronts spreading across the uk and early in the morning we will have had fairly cloudy weather with some rain splashing through out towards the east that morning. sunshine and temperatures of around 13 or 1a celsius. ok, let's get the forecast then. that bright weather will give way to cloudier skies. as that weather front advances eastwards, most of the rain will fall across northern england, parts of scotland too, but out towards the west. come the afternoon the skies should brighten, so at least some sunny spells on the way and in the south two temperatures, nothing spectacular. 17 in belfast, glasgow and newcastle, the midlands too, maybe nudging up to about 21 in london. so a little below where we normally are on average. wimbledon gets under way on monday. temperatures in london about 21, often cloudy, just about staying dry, and similar weather the following day. now, let's have a look at the forecast for tuesday. a weak ridge of high pressure tries to build across the uk, but around it there's a fair amount of cloud. notice where the showers go — scotland, northern ireland and the north of england. i think if you're in the south and the south east, the weather on tuesday should be generally dry and the temperatures about the same, even higher than 15 degrees in the lowlands of scotland and just about 20 or so further south. then, on wednesday, a weather front, low pressure again moving across the uk. you know what that means — cloud and some outbreaks of rain. really quite grey for a time for some of us. the winds not too strong, but certainly a good breeze out there. temperatures may not even make 20 celsius midweek, which is a little unusual at this time of the year. let's have a look at the week at a glance. now, towards the end of the week, it's actually going to turn particularly windy, i think, across northern parts of the uk. guess what? even a risk of gale force winds around some scottish coasts. that's it for me. bye— bye. live from london, this is bbc news. marine le pen's far—right party takes the lead in the first round of voting in french elections as thousands of left—wing voters gather to protest in paris. the parties begin their final push for votes, ahead of thursday's general election. and american singer sza brings glastonbury to a close hours after shania twain plays the coveted legends slot. cheering. what a goal. england celebrate reaching the quarterfinals of the euros, after being seconds away from defeat by slovakia. hello, i'm maryam moshiri. a very warm welcome to bbc news this morning. france is waking up to a changed political landscape after marine le pen's far—right national rally party triumphed in the first round of snap parliamentary elections. president macron has called for centre and left wing parties to unite ahead of the next round of voting, which will determine the make—up of the country's national assembly. according to the interior ministry, national rally and its allies gained 33% of the popular vote. the leftwing new popular front came second with 28%. president emmanuel macron's centrist alliance reached 20%, with this report, here's our paris correspondent andrew harding. cheering. a dramatic win yesterday for france's national rally. the party was, for years, considered too extreme for most french voters, with its anti—immigration, eurosceptic platform and its links to the kremlin. but, last night, the rn, as it's known here, secured more than a third of all votes. the party's leader is marine le pen, who has her eye on winning the french presidency next. she speaks french. she told the country it had nothing to fear from a right—wing, rn—led government. but there is a second round of voting here next weekend and things could still change. after yesterday's vote, president emmanuel macron called for centrist and left—wing parties to form a united front to keep the rn out of power. will it work? it's going to be a struggle. and all this in the middle of paris's preparations for the olympic games later this month. many french are worried about their country's deep political polarisation. the road ahead will become clearer in a week's time, when a second round of voting will determine france's future. that could be months of political deadlock. it could be a seismic political shift to the hard right, with huge implications for the country and the continent. andrew harding, bbc news, paris. live to hertfordshire now and the labour leader sir keir starmer is on the campaign trail, let's have a listen. ~ , ., ., ., the campaign trail, let's have a listen. ~ ., ., ., , listen. whether you are a family that has been _ listen. whether you are a family that has been battling _ listen. whether you are a family that has been battling with i listen. whether you are a family that has been battling with the l that has been battling with the cost—of—living crisis with bills bearing down on you, whether you are a business that has struggled for years with the damage this government has done to our economy, or whether you've been serving our country in uniform or in your community, then this campaign is for you. this fight for change for use. but change only happens if you vote for it. now, we have changed this labour party, thrown away the protests, and made this a party that says country first, party second. and what we seek is the opportunity to do the same for our country. to put our country back in the service of working people. and that is what this change is all about. because the choice is stark. 1a years we've had the chaos, division, failure. that isn't going to change. have you seen anything in their campaign that suggests the chaos and division is going to change? it isn't going to be changing. it will be five more years of that or turn the page and start to rebuild our country with labour. but, and there is always a but in a labour party speech, this is the final mile, these are the last hard yards but the last steps are always the hardest. and we have to remember that people need convincing. their undecided voters out there. every constituency is a fight. the polls did not predict the future. so we have to convince people. convince people that is possible. convince people that if you want to change, you have to vote for change. and that is what we need to do every hour and every day until 10pm on thursday night. and thank you all for what you've already done in this campaign. thank you for all the work you've done over the last four and a half years alongside me, changing our party. we have further to go, we've got to use every opportunity to get out there on the doorsteps and make our case for change. we've got a positive case to tell. the first steps we will do in government, fixing our nhs, making sure we've got the teachers for our children and young people, making sure we got the police on our streets, so everybody feels safe and secure. we have that positive argument. i'm beginning to think we are the only positive campaign left on the pitch! applause but just butjust imagine if you dare waking up butjust imagine if you dare waking up on friday morning to five more years of the conservatives. because if you don't go out and vote labour, if you don't go out and vote labour, if you don't go out and vote labour, if you don't vote for change, if you vote tory or for if you don't vote for change, if you vote tory orfor some if you don't vote for change, if you vote tory or for some other party, that could happen. and that is what we need to carry into these final hours and days of the campaign. that could happen. and it would be even worse than before. because they will return entitled, emboldened, think they can do that damage to our nhs, to our economy. imagine that. hold that thought. but also imagine the difference, if we wake up to a labour government! beginning its work to change the country. an economy that works for everyone. wherever they live. education for every child, whoever they are, whatever their background. public services back working again in the way that people would expect. bringing our country together and ending the division. these are big changes for our country. the choice is stark. the prize is huge in terms of taking our country forward. but it will only happen if you vote for it. change will only happen if you vote for it. so, go out and vote labour on thursday! thank you so much! applause studio: that is labour in hitchen town fc on the labour campaign trail. today, labour have been very much focusing on this new slogan of theirs, warning people not to vote in the conservatives again. warning people of another four years of the conservative party. he was just underlining labour's plans for change. this is only three days left until the election, it is a key week for the leaders and let's have a listen to the question and answer session. ., . ., listen to the question and answer session. ., _, , listen to the

you could end up with the biggest wedding and then have the shortest honeymoon ever with the british public. are you worried that the mandate could be wide but shallow? well, let me address this serious question that needs a serious answer, beth. istand on question that needs a serious answer, beth. i stand on my record. four and a half years ago, when i took over as leader of the labour party, i got a similar question is, which is your party has lost really badly, it may never win an election again. —— similar questions. if it does win again it will be at least ten years off and are you capable as leader of the labour party of seriously putting it before the electorate as a credible force for change within the next five years? they were the questions i got. and i said yes. i said i've got a strategy and we will do it. that's what we've done under my leadership. we have taken this party, we have changed it and here we stand on the monday before the election, ready to change our country for the better. my track record as a leader is clear. yes, what we are asking now is for the opportunity to do the same for our country. yes, we face the same challenge, which is a version of, look, the country is broken, almost nothing is working better than it was when the tories started. is it possible to bring around the change that we offer? yes it is. we had that we offer? yes it is. we had that determination, that intention and in five years' time, we will be able to look back and say you are truly better off, your public services are working properly, and the economy is working for everyone. i will be very, very happy to be judged on that record. if i will be very, very happy to be judged on that record.- i will be very, very happy to be judged on that record. if you will

bbc. you just promised in your stump speech, keir starmer, a summer of i speech, keir starmer, a summer of change. can you give us three tangible things that will change in the first few weeks of a labour government if you are trying to convince unpersuaded voters? secondly, can you also respond to what the home secretary was saying this morning that if you are elected, you will gerrymander the electoral system to stay in power? well... i mean, that's a very important question in terms of the change that happened straightaway. the first and most important change, which will happen straightaway is about how we do politics. and returning politics to service. because i think people are fed up to the back teeth with politics as a form of self entitlement, self advancement. you have seen it in the gambling commission but he also saw it with party gate, breaking the rules imposed on everybody else —— you saw it with partygate. all of that comes to an end if labour for my government and we return politics to service. then we get on with our first steps... applause sleeves rolled up, getting on with those first steps, the extra appointments in our nhs, the extra teachers that we need in our schools, the extra police officers. we get on with that straightaway and we bring the country together. as for the home secretary, i'm not taking any lectures from him about elections! look at their record. 1a years of chaos, division, failure. they have inflicted that on the british public. don't forget what they have done to our country. thursday is the opportunity to turn the page on that and if you want to change, you have to vote for it. thank you very much. applause robert. ., , ., ., , robert. robert paxton, itv. this weekend. _ robert. robert paxton, itv. this weekend, french _ robert. robert paxton, itv. this weekend, french people - robert. robert paxton, itv. this weekend, french people have i robert. robert paxton, itv. this i weekend, french people have rejected president macron who governed boldly from the centre. millions of french people have overwhelmingly voted for the hard right and the far left. what lessons do you draw from that? the lesson that i take from nationalism and populism, wherever it is, across europe we are seeing the results emerging from france, but we also see the situation in other countries across europe and across the world. the lesson i take from that is that we need to address the everyday concerns of so many people in this country. who feel disaffected by politics, who feel that, on this thursday, they feel that, on this thursday, they feel that either the country is too broken to be amended or that they can't trust politicians because of what the tories have done after the last 1a years. we have to take that head on and we have to show, on thursday, in the united kingdom and across europe and the world, that only progressives have the answers to the challenges that are facing us in this country and across europe. we have to make that progressive cause but we have to do, in making that, understand why it is certainly in the united kingdom after 1a years of chaos and failure that people to feel disaffected with politics. return politics to service. and continue to make that argument. that politics is a force for good. thank you very much. thank you all. i will give you this back. studio: that was sir keir starmer in hitchens, on the campaign trail. he referred to a pillow, i think gueye's beth rigby referred to a pillow, it is part of the labour campaign. —— i think sky's beth rigby. this is what potentially could happen if voters vote in the conservatives in another five years of conservative rule, waking up to five more years with rishi sunak... that is not a real photo of rishi sunak in bed, that has been superimposed but that is what they were referring to if you are wondering what they were talking about when they talked about the pillow. we will bring you all the very latest on the leaders and the campaign trail is with our correspondents who are on various campaign buses today —— campaign trail. let's talk to you now what the football, what a match! —— let's talk to you now about the football. england are through to the quarterfinals of the euros after a dramatic last minute goal. gareth southgate's team were moments away from being sent home by slovakia untiljude bellingham's acrobatic effort in the 95th minute saved the three lions from an early exit. here's our sports editor, dan roan. when the ball hit his foot, i got down on both my knees. i nearly cried. commentator: helped on. and it's in! jude bellingham! unbelievable. deflected back in for kane! it's all about a goal. if you attack, you win games. attack, attack, attack. now hear the lions roar! this how much it meant to the fans after england kept their euros alive in the most dramatic fashion. but amid the celebrations, there was also plenty of cause for concern. what a chance this is. earlier, underdogs slovakia had taken a deserved lead. england's so—called superstars producing their latest lacklustre display in an unconvincing campaign. manager gareth southgate's 99th game in charge turning into a nightmare. but with just seconds of added time left and as all hope seemed lost, england were saved by a moment of brilliance. and it's in! jude bellingham! and, remarkably, less than a minute into extra time, sub ivan toney found kane for the winner. now hear the lions roar. with the match turned on its head, a stunned slovakia had nothing left. england through with a performance that lacked so much, but delivered the thrilling finale that saved them. i mean, i'm just so proud of the spirit that the players have shown. um, everybody that we put into the game played a part and helped us to get over the line, helped us to change the game right at the end. and without that, you've no chance of succeeding at anything. i can't even describe that feeling. representing england. european championships, round of 16, 95 minutes, you look up at the clock and think, "could be going home here". but there's players saying to each other, "one minute to go, "we still believe, we're still going to get one more chance". and there's that inner fight and spirit in us. so what did the fans here make of england's last—gasp comeback? awful performance. lucky to get the win, honestly, let's be realistic. second half we turned up. and jude bellingham, last kick of the game — unbelievable. commentator: they are on their way. of the game - unbelievable. _ but as the chant goes, how they got there, i don't know. having come so close to what would have been seen as an unthinkable defeat, england will know they have to improve if they're to overcome switzerland in the quarterfinal on saturday. but they'll also hope the togetherness and spirit they displayed in one of their most dramatic ever comebacks can be capitalised on. dan roan, bbc news, gelsenkirchen. for more, let's speak to the standards chief football writer, dan kilpatrick. it is so good to talk to you, thanks forjoining us. talk me through, what did you make of it?- what did you make of it? well, obviously. _ what did you make of it? well, obviously, england _ what did you make of it? well, obviously, england had - what did you make of it? well, obviously, england had an i what did you make of it? well, | obviously, england had an iconic goal to add to the kind of annals of great goals they have scored in tournaments over the years. but overall it masked a really troubling performance, a really poor performance, a really poor performance that was right up there with anything as bad as england have delivered over the last kind of two decades in major tournaments. if they are going to be to switzerland in the quarterfinal in dusseldorf on saturday, they need to improve. they are through to the next round and thatis are through to the next

| there? at this stage of the _ tournament, we are in the knockouts now, the result is more important than the performance. than the need to put on a statement which was honestly a theme of the group stage for england. the bottom line is they are not going to win the european championship playing like they did last night. it was really in abject, pedestrian, timid performance. they didn't create a lot until belling and's wonder goal. that was their first shot on target of the night. the feeling is that england have got away with it and may be won that game in spite of gareth southgate, not because of him. if they are going to beat switzerland next weekend, they will have to massively improve. they have this iconic, wonder goal and can that galvanise them and change the dynamics and prove the turning point of this fairly turgid campaign? you have been asked _ fairly turgid campaign? you have been asked this _ fairly turgid campaign? you have been asked this endlessly i fairly

you can go - it that has gone wrong? there are many things. you can go all- it that has gone wrong? there are many things. you can go all the i it that has gone wrong? there are l many things. you can go all the way back to the squad gareth southgate named, which was a bit lopsided. we are seeing that now in the team. there is no natural left—back. luke shaw is the only left—back southgate picked isn't fit and it frankly doesn't look like he will be fit for playing a significant role. that is a really unbalanced side. lots of young, inexperienced players are on the bench. admittedly, some of them made a difference last night. but england is arguably lacking leaders and experienced players like jack reed and marcus rashford and raheem sterling who were left out —— jack grealish. england looked like a group of individuals, they don't look like a coherent team with a game plan and structure. the age—old problem in english football is that when things start going wrong, there was no identity to fall back on. we know how spain are going to play and how germany typically play and the netherlands. england don't have that ingrained identity and we are seeing that at these finals. sometimes they look like a team that want to be patient and probe and look for a girl and other times they look like a team that wants to press high and play fast transitions that might look for a goal. they are polar opposite styles. england don't have a set way of playing so far. {lila opposite styles. england don't have a set way of playing so far. 0k, dan from the standard, _ a set way of

there's just three days of campaigning left before thursday's election, and the parties are making their final push for votes. rishi sunak is warning against what he calls "an unaccountable and unchecked labour government". labour leader sir keir starmer, campaigning in hertfordshire. we saw earlier. he promised "a summer of change" if his party wins. the lib dems are pledging to reverse planned cuts to payments made to bereaved families who lose a parent. and nigel farage has told a reform uk rally that his party will become the voice of opposition. let's speak to iain watson, on the labour campaign bus. i'm assuming you are in kitchen town fc where we saw sir keir starmer talking a little bit earlier. —— you are in hitchen. other than pillow talk, what are we hearing from the labour leader? we are once again at another football ground. sir keir starmer seems to love them. in the end, he expects, i suppose, starmer seems to love them. in the end, he expects, isuppose, to starmer seems to love them. in the end, he expects, i suppose, to get the result he is looking for on thursday but his message was for people not to become complacent. if you want to change, you have to vote for it, he says. speaking to some of the activists here, some of them said it was quite hard going on the doorsteps before saying they still didn't know how to vote, or indeed expressing disillusionment with all political parties. on one hand there is a bit of an uphill struggle for keir starmer or any politician to convince voters to turn out on thursday but on the other hand, take a look at where you are, you are in hitchin in hertfordshire. they are going on a tour of south—east england, a territory which is never ever seen as traditionally labour. they say they are visiting only battleground seats in the last few days of the campaign and those battlegrounds are areas where, quite frankly, you would never be able to use virtually any ammunition to see off the conservative opponents many years ago. there have been boundary changes and demographic changes more favourable to labour than before. but they are making a point of saying they are going into areas where previously they had faced some hostility. at the start of this campaign, they visited a lot of seats that labour won back in 1997 when tony blair swept to victory in a landslide. now there is a fight over a place that would have eluded tony blair. that gives you some kind of measure of their confidence, despite the fact that they are emphasising people have to turn out and vote for change. that pillow saying don't wake up with five more years of the conservatives. a gimmick, to some extent. what the conservatives say is also don't sleepwalk into a labour government. i was asking keir starmer for example, what tangible things would actually change in the first few weeks if he was elected. he gave a pretty general answer, actually, that change in the culture of politics, bringing politics back to service. specifically he talked about more nhs appointments, for example. a lot of these people still don't know how to vote and that word change isn't enough. they want to know from what to what. studio: ian watson, thank you very much indeed at the labour campaign trail with sir keir starmer. let's speak to the bbc�*s katie hunter. we saw the snp leader answering questions on my colleague nicky campbell's programme on bbc news and 5live. what were the highlights and the low lights of the half an hour he had on 5live and bbc news? it is interesting that during this campaign so many of the issues that have come up have been devolved issues. the snp has been in power at the scottish parliament in edinburgh at holyrood for 17 years now. as we have talked about before, this is a westminster election. yet so many of theissues westminster election. yet so many of the issues coming up are devolved. on that phone in, that interview you mentioned, the nhs was a big feature. john swinney was pushed on waiting times and that has been a constant theme of this campaign. even though the nhs is devolved and even though it is ministers in edinburgh that are responsible for the health service, the snp�*s argument is that spending decisions made in westminster affect the scottish government to�*s budget. the snp has been calling for the next uk government to spend more on health than england and the way the funding for meal works, that would mean more money for scotland. other issues were ferries —— funding formula works. there have been problems with new ferries being delayed and to seven west coast island communities. again, another devolved issue —— being delayed and serving west coast. . ., ~ , ., �* , being delayed and serving west coast. . . ~' , ., �* , ,

that is a very high height. he is about tojump and let's is a very high height. he is about to jump and let's take a quick look at what he is doing. the gate opens and there he is. i hope you have sound because there is a big long screen coming up! —— long scream. my goodness, that is pretty scary. a little bit of a spin. so ed daveyis scary. a little bit of a spin. so ed davey is bungeejumping. there is obviously a serious message to what the lib dems are talking about today. they are pushing their plans on payments for bereaved families. let's speak to tom symonds, on the lib dem campaign trail. he is beneath that bungeejump crane. i wouldn't do it. i am not sure you would do it, over and above the call of duty, what was sir ed davey trying to tell us about that big jump? he davey trying to tell us about that bi 'um - ? ., , davey trying to tell us about that bi 'um? , .,, ., ., bigjump? he has become a bit of a stunt man in _ bigjump? he has become a bit of a stunt

hard to describe them as stunts but i would definite describe this as a stunt, i would not personally do this. he was given the option this morning, as we were preparing to come here, not knowing what was going to be happening, for him to pull out and he decided not to. he also tried to phone his wife, possibly a last call, but she didn't answer the phone. as you say, there are a couple of issues that the lib dems are talking about today. what ed davey shouted as he came down that bungee fall, do something you have never done today, vote lib dems. that is the message they want voters to keep in their head. thank ou. sta voters to keep in their head. thank you- stay with _ voters to keep in their head. thank you. stay with us _ voters to keep in their head. thank you. stay with us for _

bbc�*s news app that you can access wherever you are. goodbye to viewers on bbc two. thank you for staying with me on bbc news, let's go back to tom. he tried to call his wife, why did he do that, do we know? i call his wife, why did he do that, do we know?— call his wife, why did he do that, do we know? ~' , ., ., do we know? i think he 'ust wanted a cuick call do we know? i think he 'ust wanted

course, this is a very organised company and they do this a lot. there is a crash mat which could have caught him if something had gone wrong. it is the point that he is making — comedy lib dems are currently fourth in the polls, they always have to struggle for attention —— making, the lib dems. this is the strategy, get the leader known within the electorate and known by voters. they are also talking about bereavement support today. i won't make the obvious link between this and that! the lib dems say the conservatives cut the level of bereavement support, which is a payment to people in whose family when a partner dies and can be worth thousands of pounds a year. the lib dems have said they will reverse that payment. that cut. so people can get that payment in future. if they form some sort of government. as always with the liberal democrats, that is quite unusual in this electoral cycle. he feels it's a personal thing, he says it was the first thing to be part of when he was made leader. another policy, the battle goes on, four days to go. the lib dems are increasingly confident about taking key seat in the south—west and in oxfordshire, where they say they will break very much into the considerable hotline. if a party are saying they are confident of taking seats, it does show a level of confidence as we come close to the poll. confidence as we come close to the

this week, it will stay changeable and cloudy times with rain, windy on thursday. it will feel on the chilly side. this is the anomaly map, temperatures below the average for much of the week. around four orfive average for much of the week. around four or five cells just for many by the end of this week. could be quite disappointing forjuly, especially when you have the cloud and rain. it will push further east through this afternoon. still quite heavy around eastern scotland and the north—east of england. some brighter skies developing in the west as the rain clears away to the east. a maximum temperature of 215, 17 degrees, perhaps 20 celsius in the south—east of england. the rain continues tonight, clearing for most of those, some clear spells into tuesday morning with showers across parts of western scotland. overnight temperatures, similar to the last fewnights, down to about 11—13 . into tuesday, a 30 cloudy start toward some eastern areas. the weather front clears away but a small ridge of high pressure. largely settled, just in rain to the far north and west into scotland, perhaps north west england. further south, a largely dry day, often quite cloudy but some brighter, some sunnier spells from time to time. top temperatures in the mid to high teens, perhaps up to 21 degrees in the south—east. into wednesday, perhaps klaudia with rain in the morning, clearing away but showers again towards the northern and western areas. temperatures may be lower, so feeling coolerform mid week on, 16—19. thursday could be windy, this area of low pressure, some showers and rain coming into central areas. some showers and rain coming into centralareas. into some showers and rain coming into central areas. into the weekend, it should clear away, becoming drier into the weekend. but as you can see, for the week ahead, changeable, some rain at times, quite cloudy, and temperatures of 15—20 c. goodbye. this is bbc news. the headlines... marine le pen's far—right party takes the lead in the first round of voting in french elections — as thousands of left wing voters gather to protest in paris. england celebrate reaching the quarterfinals of the euros, after being seconds away from defeat by slovakia. the parties begin theirfinal push for votes, ahead of thursday's general election. and final preparations are under way, as this year's wimbledon tournament is due to get going injust under an hour. there are just three days of political campaigning left before people across the uk head to the polls on thursday. nina warhurst has been to the calder valley constituency — the backdrop for the popular police drama series happy valley — gauging the mood of voters there. the greenest of hills. calder valley sits bang between the bright lights of leeds and manchester. but this is another world. it was this landscape that provided the perfect dramatic backdrop for the tv series happy valley. but in brighouse they've had quite enough of political drama. it's very interesting, but it's all the same. all promises. will it be done? they're not intelligent. well, they're not, are they, or else they wouldn't be doing all these ridiculous things?! the country's a mess. it's nothing like the - country we knew, is it? nothing like the - country we knew, no. ailsa volunteers here. she knows how to cook for 50 people, but is less sure how to vote. we're in a real mess because of ukraine, because of covid. everything needs to be paid for somehow. nobody�*s saying how they're going to pay for it. so there's no point saying, we'll cut your taxes, so if you're going to cut taxes, or you're not going to put taxes up, where's the money going to come from? because it has to come from somewhere. and how do governments run countries? there needs to be taxes. you know, so, ordinary people pay. the river calder once powered a booming textile trade. now new industries, like this one, are trying to imprint their own legacy. but it's not easy. we are desperate for growth, but we are desperate for controlled growth. and we're desperate to grow at a sustainable rate. the focus seems to be on financially penalising small businesses like us through corporation tax, rather than supporting us for growth at home and overseas. for some, it's issues much further from home that are hitting home. halima wants peace for gazans. i think for me the most important thing is ceasefire in palestine, not killing innocent people. i think they should have called for a ceasefire. long time ago. i've no confidence in that system at all, that they're actually - going to do anything. across the hills to hebden bridge and this is a hotspot for hipsters and holiday—makers. but things are feeling far from frivolous. for me it's the economy. i feel we're just getting back on track. we feel as though after covid we're just having a little bit more money to spend. we seem to have grown up in an area where we've got everything, we've got a mortgage, paid it off very soon. i don't know if the youngsters will ever get on that kind of property ladder. i study medicine, so the nhs is really important to me - and it's crumbling at the moment. top to bottom, please, with the repeats. and what about the town's brass band — a staple, surely? but not without the right funding. adam is the conductor here. we're a community organisation. we really struggle for funding. and unfortunately, a lot of community organisations have been struggling for funding the last few years and have gone by the wayside. for emma, a weekly band rehearsal provides an escape from her busy job as a maths teacher. we have buckets when it rains on certain corridors. we're having to reduce the number of tas dramatically in schools. there's an increase in staff absence because the job is stressful. i am lucky that i work in a very good school, but we're battling with lack of money. three more days of campaigning. which party will

been happening today? we have 'ust aot off has been happening today? we have just got off it. _ has been happening today? we have just got off it, and _ has been happening today? we have just got off

visits are altered quite security conscious. i know where we are, i'm not allowed to tell you exactly where we are. what i can tell you for sure is what rishi sunak will be doing over the next 72 hours. he is talking this morning about what he calls unchecked labour power, if they win this so—called supermajority. supermajority doesn't mean something tangible in british politics, but what the conservatives are trying to persuade voters is labour, if they win a significant majority in the commons, would have too much power and they claim that would lead to tax rises, potentially more immigration and things like that as well. there are two things rishi sunak is trying to do this week. if you step back from the messaging, he is trying to persuade two groups of voters to vote conservative on thursday. one of them is a lifelong tories, the sort of people who normally vote conservative without thinking about it. conservative without thinking about it. i conservative without thinking about it. i can tell you, chatting to a lot of conservative candidates, there is nervousness in this part of there is nervousness in this part of the country, the midlands, about some people who voted conservative at the last few general elections not doing it. rishi sunak is appealing to them. he is trying to appealing to them. he is trying to appeal also to those tempted to vote reform uk, to say if you vote them there's more chance of labour winning more seats and having a bigger majority. we think that is bad for the things... what is the strategy from rishi sunak? you can see the polls like the rest of us, there's not many conservative's... it would take a minor miracle for rishi sunak to stay in power in the general election, but i think what the prime minister to... he will say to voters, became a what you wish for. if you are a conservative and want them to... you need to vote for us on thursday. 72 hours to go, there will be a lot of hammering of there will be a lot of hammering of the core messages before election day. the core messages before election da . �* , ,., , the core messages before election da . �* , , ., , ., ~' the core messages before election day.

72 hours to go - indeed. there are 72 hours to go until polling day. not many hours for the parties to put forward what they believe are the key messages. the question now is, what changes during those final three days of campaigning? what messages are the parties trying to drive home, and what is the mood amongst party activists after a pretty intense six weeks? we are joined activists after a pretty intense six weeks? we arejoined by activists after a pretty intense six weeks? we are joined by two activists after a pretty intense six weeks? we arejoined by two people from both sides. joining me now isjo tanner — a former conservative adviser who also ran borisjohnson's campaign for london mayor. and andrew fisher, former labour director of policy underjeremy corbyn. it is really good to have you both are the programme, thank you for joining us. let me ask you, what do you think can change in these three days? is it still all to play for, or have people made up their minds? the conservatives will have you believe that having watched the football last night, it is all to play for until the last minute. i think the challenge ready now is about trying to get their core vote out and make sure those people who are wavering that perhaps maybe would have voted conservative in the past but have thought about putting a vote somewhere else, particularly for reform, it's about making sure they can stand those expected losses. it is about trying to keep keep as many potential supporters on board and motivating its base to help get out the vote on thursday, because what no party want is for people to stay—at—home because they feel frustrated. people to stay-at-home because they feel frustrated.— feel frustrated. andrew, you are a former director _ feel frustrated.

they've been fed up from day one. particularly because they felt very underprepared for the campaign itself. they had believed the election was going to believed the election was going to be later in the year. thou also people very unhappy about the way candidates have been imposed on local associations, they felt there was a shift away from that power base that the associations and members have had. and even yesterday, there was talk from some leading politicians about the potential of taking away a leadership vote from members in the future. there's definitely some unrest in the ranks of the party. the candidates themselves, some of frustrated, there's talk about moving resources around. and generally, i think the various things that have happened, everything from how the campaign was launched through to the d—day fiasco, through to things like the betting scandal, there's been almost moment if you were a boxer you would see it as a punch which started at the beginning of the campaign and you went down and got back up and it was a series of things hitting them. i think the local activist, it is incredibly difficult to keep motivated and to keep energise when you are seeing these poll leads which look quite remarkable and that make you wonder what the point is. i think there is a lot of pressure to make sure local people feel better is a point still to get out and help try and get a tory vote secured. andrew, the pressure on the labour party activists and potential mps andrew, the pressure on the labour party activists and potential mp5 is different to the pressure

to have really dominated the conversation, they've dominated the conversation, they've dominated the conversation, they've dominated the direction particularly the conservatives have taken around what it wanted to focus on. because it has been sidetracked by the sort of emergence of nigel farage back from reform and what it did in the polls around the potential reform votes. it is dangerous because the voters are a bit miffed and feel fed up, people feel cross about where politics is relevant to them, feeling politicians are in it for themselves. i think the problem is polls can make people think it is a foregone conclusion, not dangerous foregone conclusion, not dangerous for democracy because we need people to exercise their democratic right. evenif to exercise their democratic right. even if they are fed up and you don't think there's anyone you want to vote for, you should still turn up to vote for, you should still turn up and write that on your ballot and spoiled it. it is part

manufacture, or import a vape, or sell one, other than in a pharmacy. the restrictions apply to all e—cigarettes, whether they have nicotine or not. until october, those purchasing a vape will require a prescription. after that, customers older than 18 will be allowed to buy vapes after having a conversation with their pharmacist. australia already has some of the world's strictest anti—smoking laws. our australia correspondent, katy watson, reports from sydney. prime minister albanese had hoped that this would be a world first when it came to vaping laws, but opposition from the green party meant that it got watered down at the last minute. so what it means is, as of today, monday, anybody who wants to have access to a vape will have to go to a pharmacy and will need a prescription. but come october, you will be able to go into a pharmacy, have a discussion with a pharmacist, and under the counter they'll be able to give you a vape. under 18s, though, will always need a prescription. now of course, this new law is hoping to bring down the number of people vaping, especially among young australians. data shows that since the pandemic, consumption has really, really soared. australia is no stranger to tough anti—smoking legislation. they've already banned the imports of vapes. they've also limited the number of flavours available. and in 2012, australia did pass legislation to bring in plain packaging on cigarettes to make them less appealing. when it came to marketing. there is some concern, though, pharmacists are concerned that they will become a dumping ground, if you like, for vapes. of course, those selling vapes in in in retail spaces, petrol stations, those people will be out of a job as of monday. there is also a concern about the tough legislation, what that means for consumption of cigarettes. will this tough legislation mean a switch back to cigarettes, which of course defeats the object? but that's something we'll only really understand in the coming months once that legislation beds in. the glastonbury festival has ended with the american r&b star sza headlining the pyramid stage. our culture and media editor, katie razzall, was there. let's go, girls! glastonbury has been getting ready. as shania twain so memorably sings to have a little fun. i feel like a woman. and the queen of country didn't disappoint at her glastonbury debut. and there she is, on stage somewhere way across this sea of pink cowboy hats and leopard print outfits. a true legend in the legends slot here at glastonbury. in a year where female voices have sung out across the festival. after dua lipa headlined on friday, other women artists have been wowing the glastonbury faithful, including little simz and paloma faith. well, they're always telling us, well, you don't draw. you know, it'sjust like anything else. there's a lot of women in music today. there's a lot of voices. and i think that it's important that you just keep going forward. help me sing. award—winning camila cabello is 27 years old, with four albums and all too aware of the sexism in her business. there's definitely times in hindsight where i've been like, oh, ifeel like i maybe have gotten treated differently in the studio, or maybe my voice hasn't been taken as seriously. out of that hardship comes, you know, these incredible artists like sza, like dua lipa. we put on like incredible shows because we work ten times harder. for more than 25 years, shania twain's held the record for the world's best selling album by a female artist, and she's certainly showcased her pulling power. katie razzall, bbc news, glastonbury. i love that song. it is time for the weather. i will get the name right. simon? it is staying changeable, a lot of cloud,

jubilation in france's far—right national rally after winning the first round of the snap parliamentary election the conservatives' james cleverly one is a labour government would seek to distort the political system tjy seek to distort the political system by making more people eligible to vote. meanwhile, ed davey throws himself into the final week of campaigning with a bungeejumping in eastbourne. and the england team celebrate reaching the quarterfinals of the euros are to just seconds away from defeat. welcome to bbc news. a week of campaigning and deal—making is beginning in france ahead of a second round of parliamentary elections next sunday. according to the interior ministry, national rally and its allies gained 33% of the popular vote. the left—wing new popular front came second with 20%. president macron's centrist alliance reached 20%. cheering. a dramatic win yesterday for france's national rally. the party was, for years, considered too extreme for most french voters, with its anti—immigration, eurosceptic platform and its links to the kremlin. but last night, the rn, as it's known here, secured more than a third of all votes. the party's leader is marine le pen, who has her eye on winning the french presidency next. she told the country it had nothing to fear from a right—wing, rn—led government. but there is a second round of voting here next weekend and things could still change. after yesterday's vote, president emmanuel macron called for centrist and left—wing parties to form a united front to keep the rn out of power. will it work? it's going to be a struggle. and all this in the middle of paris's preparations for the olympic games later this month. many french are worried about their country's deep political polarisation. the road ahead will become clearer in a week's time, when a second round of voting will determine france's future. that could be months of political deadlock. it could be a seismic political shift to the hard right, with huge implications for the country and the continent. andrew harding, bbc news, paris. thanks forjoining us on bbc news. what can we expect in the next round? what we've seen here is one step, but the race is so far from over yet. absolutely. one thing to say is that the exit polls, we should read them with caution. that is because this _ should read them with caution. that is because this is _ should read them with caution. that is because this is an _ should read them with caution. trust is because this is an election which plays out quite differently in each constituency. and quite different to the uk is that the majority system is over two rounds. so this run—off next sunday really could change and change the picture. we were hearing there as well this call for the so—called republican vote, that is basically parties coming together to go against the far right. well, asking electors in any case to do that. the question is, will the letters go to the polls and follow this

electoral cycle of things, the legislative elections come after the presidential elections and so in some ways, traditionally what happens is people go to the polls, they vote for the president which is in many ways and symbolic, and the legislative elections where the government is formed, the voting turnoutjust drops away. they are quite separate from the presidential elections, the next one is in 2027, macron has said he will stand his ground and stay there for the remaining three years. this is just off the back of the european parliamentary elections, where there was a slightly higher turnout than normal and i think there is kind of a movement as well, there is kind of a movement as well, there was shock at this announcement in france, i was in the macron hq the night of the

government. meanwhile keir starmer is campaigning in hertfordshire, promising a summer of change if his party wins. let's talk about the lib dems now, they are pledging a reverse plan to payments made to brief parents. finally, nigel farage has told the reform party roy that his party would become the voice of opposition. let's have a listen to sir keir starmer a short while ago taking question. we

what we are asking now is for the opportunity to do the same for the opportunity to do the same for our country. and yes, we face the same challenge, which is a version of, look, the country is broken from almost nothing is working better than it was with the tories started, is it possible to bring about the change that we offer? yes, it is. we have that determination, that intention and in five years' time, we will be able to look back and say you are truly better off, your public services are working properly and the economy is working properly and the economy is working for everyone. i

on thursday. the message is not to become complacent, if you want to change, you have to vote for it, he said. some of the activists here said. some of the activists here said it was quite hard going on the doorsteps, people saying they still didn't know how to vote or indeed expressing disillusionment with all political parties. so there is the one hand a bit of an uphill struggle for keir starmer or indeed any politician to convince voters to turn out. on the other hand, you think of where you are, you're in hitchin in hertfordshire, on a tour of south—east england, territory which has never, ever been seen as traditionally labour. they have been visiting battleground seats, were quite frankly they would never have been able to use any ammunition to see off the conservatives many years ago. there have been some boundary changes here, and i think they are making a point of saying they are going into areas where previously they would have faced some hostility. at the start of this campaign, they visited a lot of seats that labour won back in 1997 when tony blair swept to victory and now the seats they are fighting over our once which would have eluded even tony blair so that gives you a measure of the confidence despite the fact they're emphasising that people have to actually turn out and vote for change, and don't wake up to five more years of the conservatives. what the conservatives. what the conservatives would say is also, don't sleepwalk into a labour government. as for what tangible things would change if he was elected, he gave a pretty general answer about changing the culture of politics, bringing politics back to service. in terms of the specifics, he talked about more nhs appointments for example. but a lot of people still do not know how to vote. that one word, change, isn't enough. they still want to know from what to work. find enough. they still want to know from what to work-— what to work. and let's get the latest now _ what to

we are allowed to say so far, these visits are quite often very security conscious. i know where we are, i'm just not allowed to tell you exactly where we are. what i can tell you for sure is what rishi sunak is going to be doing over the next 72 hours, and he is talking this morning about what he calls unchecked labour power if they win this so—called supermajority. that doesn't actually mean something tangible in british politics but what the conservatives are trying to persuade voters is that labour, if they won a significant majority in the commons, would have too much power and they claim that would lead to tax rises, to potentially more emigration and things like that as well. there are two things that rishi sunak is trying to do this week. step back from the messaging, he is trying to persuade two groups of voters to vote conservative on thursday. one of them is a lifelong tories, the sort of people who normally vote conservative without really thinking about it. i can tell you, chatting to a lot of conservative candidates, there is nervousness, particularly in this part of the world, is part of the country, in the midlands, about some people who have voted conservatives in the last few general elections not doing it this time. so rishi sunak is appealing to them. second, he is trying to appeal to people who are tempted to vote reform, to say to them, look, if you vote for them, there's more chance of labour winning more seats and having a bigger majority and we think that would be bad. what is the strategy from rishi sunak? well, he can see the polls like the rest of us, there are not many... it were take a minor miracle for rishi sunak to stay in power in the general election but i think what the prime minister... he is going to voters, be careful what you wish for. if you are conservative and you want the conservatives to have less than they could, you need to vote for us... 72 hours to go, there will be a lot of hammering of those caught messages before election day.— before election day. apology is there for the _ before election day. apology is there for the blips _ before election day. apology is there for the blips in _ before election day. apology is there for the blips in that i before election day. apology is l there for the blips in that report. what are the lib dems doing? ed daveyis what are the lib dems doing? ed davey is on his first visit of the data in eastbourne club. he is taking part in an extreme activity, bungeejumping. a p pa re ntly apparently this is all about urging people to do something you've never done, vote liberal democrat. that's the message. there he is, swinging around on his third day of the final battle bus tour for the lib around on his third day of the final battle bus tourfor the lib dems. the campaign has taken him from land's end tojohn o'groats. our policies are proving incredibly popular, whether people who are normally conservative or labour. it has drawn support from all sides. if they want the sewage scandal ended, only the lib dems have the policy and that's a people are voting for our policies. i will concede that some people just want the conservatives out and that's why we are saying in places like tunbridge wells, sevenoaks, chichester and here in eastbourne, horsham, so many parts of the south—east, i could go on, it is a liberal democrat vote that can get rid of the lib dems —— gibert of the conservatives. so, vote tactically?— gibert of the conservatives. so, vote tactically? gibert of the conservatives. so, vote tacticall ? �* , ., vote

concern. earlier, underdogs slovakia had taken a deserved lead. england's so—called superstars producing their latest lacklustre display in an unconvincing campaign. gareth southgate's 99th game in

in the quarterfinal on saturday, but there will also hope that the togetherness and spirit they displayed in one of the most matic ever comebacks can be capitalised on. earlier i spoke to the

the need to put on a statement, which was obviously a team of the group stage for england but i think the bottom line is they are not going to win european championship playing like they did last night. it was really a pedestrian, timid performance and they didn't create a lot until the bellingham goal. the feeling is that and have got away with it and maybe won that game in spite of gareth southgate, not because of him. again, if they are going to beat switzerland next weekend, they have two improved a lot. but they got this iconic goal and the pressure is now how can they change the

left—back, luke shaw was the only one southgate picked and he is up for it and it doesn't look like he's going to be fit so that has an balance to the side. there is a lot of young inexperienced players on the bench. admittedly some of them made a difference last night but england is arguably less experienced leaders, really the bottom line as england looked to me like a group of individuals, not a coherent team with a game plan and structure. the age—old problem in english football is that when things start going wrong, there is no identity to fall back on. we know how spain are going to play, we know how germany play, we now have the netherlands play, the england —— but england don't have that ingrained identity. sometimes they look like a team who want to be patient and other times they look like a team who want to press high and try and overwhelm the opposition. england don't really have a set way of playing so far. that is all the football analysis from danica patrick. —— dan kilpatrick. the family of the missing british teenagerjay slater have vowed to carry on looking for him tenerife after police in tenerife called off their search. the 19—year—old from lancashire, disappeared two weeks ago. our correspondent guy hedgecoe has the latest. jdy jay slater came here after a night out at a music festival. the 19—year—old apprentice bricklayer called a friend to say his phone battery was running low and that he had no water. then he vanished. since the teenager went missing, local police have deployed drones, helicopters and sniffer dogs. on saturday, the search was ramped up with some local volunteers joining in. this is the area where jay slater was last sighted, specifically walking along this road. the local police have scoured the hillsides for the last two weeks, searching for the 19—year—old, but they have not found any trace of him. and the police have now said that they have halted the search. police said that although the search operation was finished, the case remains open. mr slater�*s parents have been in tenerife helping with the search. a friend of the family said they intend to stay on the island and keep looking for him. they also hope to speak to the authorities, to learn more about the investigation. large protests have been taking place among israel's ultra—orthodoxjewish communities, following last week's supreme court ruling — that the state must begin drafting jewish seminary students into the military. with more than 60,000 ultra—orthodox men now potentially eligible, the israeli attorney general has said the army should take on 3,000 ultra—orthodox recruits as soon as today. these men dedicate this is to allow for religious study but now the supreme court has said there is no reason why they cannot be drafted into the israeli army and a compulsory service, the same as other young israelis. people here have been telling me that they think this would really destroy their way of life. ~ ., , this

it fights the war in gaza, has a shortage of manpower and it has been told to start drafting ultraorthodoxjewish men. those here say the protests will continue. company continues just 72 hours before polling day. rishi sunak is on the campaign trail in staffordshire. let's have a listen. that's the tip of to believe in, that's how i was right, i will keep cutting your taxes. for those of you who want to buy your first home, we will also cut your taxes by abolishing stamp duty for first—time buyers. forthose abolishing stamp duty for first—time buyers. for those who are pensioners or your parents or grandparents, we will cut those taxes too because people should have security in retirement, i believe in that. that's what i'm about. be in no doubt, a vote for the conservatives is a vote to have your taxes cut that to make sure your voice is heard. and in closing i would say this. if you think about everything, i love our country for what it has done for my family. my grandparents came here with very little and i stand here in front of you two generations later with the enormous privilege of having been your chancellor and your prime minister. and i will always work my socks

work for my mum in her pharmacy, i worked in the dispensary and packing all the boxes, putting the prescriptions together, which they can now do in an automated fashion, which is brilliant. i started off on my bike riding around southampton delivering prescriptions to elderly patients who couldn't come in, that's the world i grew up in sol who couldn't come in, that's the world i grew up in so i know first—hand what an extraordinary difference pharmacies can make to their community and why i introduced pharmacy first. so for the seven common elements, people can now go and see their pharmacy in formulated and see their pharmacy in formulated and want to build that we will expand the programme to more conditions. there is a range of other things that pharmacists want to do, can do for the chest infections being an obvious example, more blood pressure checks, so if re—elected we will expand pharmacy first to cover more conditions and treatments in the will come with more funding so that we can make sure people can get the care they need as quickly as possible. that's what everyone wants, that's what all of you want to provide and if i re—elected that's what we delivered. next

left until the elections, just three days of political campaigning before people across the uk head to the polls on thursday. nina warhurst has been to the calder valley constituency, the backdrop for the popular police drama series happy valley, gauging the mood of voters there. calder valley sits bang between the bright lights of leeds and manchester. but this is another world. it was this landscape that provided the perfect dramatic backdrop for the tv series, happy valley. but in brighouse they've had quite enough of political drama. it's very interesting, but it's all the same. all promises. will it be done? they're not intelligent. well, they're not, are they, or else they wouldn't be doing all these ridiculous things?! the country's a mess. it's nothing like the - country we knew, is it? nothing like the - country we knew, no. ailsa volunteers here. she knows how to cook for 50 people, but is less sure how to vote. we're in a real mess because of ukraine, because of covid. everything needs to be paid for somehow. nobody�*s saying how they're going to pay for it. so there's no point saying, we'll cut your taxes, so if you're going to cut taxes, or you're not going to put taxes up, where's the money going to come from? because it has to come from somewhere. and how do governments run countries? there needs to be taxes. you know, so, ordinary people pay. the river calder once powered a booming textile trade. now new industries, like this one, are trying to imprint their own legacy. but it's not easy. we are desperate for growth, but we are desperate for controlled growth. and we're desperate to grow at a sustainable rate. the focus seems to be on financially penalising small businesses like us through corporation tax, rather than supporting us for growth at home and overseas. for some, its issues much further from home that are hitting home. halima wants peace for gazans. i think for me the most important thing is ceasefire in palestine, not killing innocent people. i think they should have called for a ceasefire. long time ago. i've no confidence in that system at all, that they're actually - going to do anything. across the hills to hebden bridge and this is a hotspot for hipsters and holiday—makers. but things are feeling far from frivolous. for me it's the economy. i feel we're just getting back on track. we feel as though after covid we're just having a little bit more money to spend. we seem to have grown up in an area where we've got everything, we've got a mortgage, paid it off very soon. i don't know if the youngsters will ever get on that kind of property ladder. i study medicine, so the nhs is really important to me - and it's crumbling at the moment. top to bottom, please, with the repeats. and what about the town's brass band — a staple, surely? but not without the right funding. adam is the conductor here. we're a community organisation. we really struggle for funding. and unfortunately, a lot of community organisations have been struggling for funding the last few years and have gone by the wayside. for emma, a weekly band rehearsal provides an escape from her busy job as a maths teacher. we have buckets when it rains on certain corridors. we're having to reduce the number of tas dramatically in schools. there's an increase in staff absence because the job is stressful. i am lucky that i work in a very good school, but we're battling with lack of money. three more days of campaigning. which party will prove its most in tune with calder valley? there's always one. there are seven candidates standing in the calder valley constituency. a reminder, you can see all the candidates standing in this election over on the bbc news website. there are just three days of political campaigning left before people across the uk head to the polls on thursday. earlier i spoke to a couple of guests about the last few days of campaigning, how important they are and what the mood is like amongst those candidates and potential candidates in both those parties. i asked how important these final days are to the campaign. the conservatives _ are to the campaign. the conservatives would - are to the campaign. tie: conservatives would have you are to the campaign. ti9: conservatives would have you believe that it conservatives would have you believe thatitis conservatives would have you believe that it is all to play for until the last minute, but i think the challenge now is trying to get their core vote out. and make sure that those people who are wavering perhaps may would have voted conservative in the past that had thought about putting about somewhere else, particularly reform. it is about trying to stem those losses that they expect to have. it is about trying to keep as many potential supporters on board and motivating the base to get out on thursday. what new political party wants is for people to stay at home because they feel frustrated with the system.

people are incredibly - thursday? there is a range of views. some people are incredibly fed - thursday? there is a range of views. some people are incredibly fed up i some people are incredibly fed up and have been fed from day one. particularly because they felt very unprepared for the campaign itself. people have been unhappy about the way the candidates have been imposed on local associations and they felt there was a shift away from that power base that the associations and members have had and even yesterday there was talk from some leading politicians about the potential of taking away a leadership vote in the future from members. there is some unrest in the ranks of the party and the candidates themselves, some of them are frustrated, there has been talk of moving resources around and generally do various things that have happened, everything from how the campaign was launched through to the campaign was launched through to the d—day fiasco, through to things like the betting scandal there have been moments that if you are a boxer you would see it as a punch that started at the beginning of the campaign and you sort of went down and i got back up and the were these series are things that continue to hit them. for local activists it is incredibly difficult to keep motivated and to keep energised when your ceiling —— are seeing this poll and that is remarkable and make you wonder what the point is. there is a lot of pressure to make sure that local people feel there is a point still to get out and help try and get tory vote secured. the pressure on the labour _ get

round. how helpful are they in these general election run—up scenarios? well, they focus the mind. the numbers definitely give you an indication of what is happening. this has been an unusual election because they seem to have really dominated the conversation. they have dominated the direction that particularly the conservatives have taken around what i wanted to focus on because it has been sidetracked by the emergence of nigel farage back for reform and what that did in the polls around the potential reform votes. it is dangerous because i think the voters who are already a bit left and feel fed up, already a bit left and feel fed up, a lot of people feel very cross out there, they feel that politicians are all in it for themselves and i think the problem is that the polls can make people think it is a foregone conclusion, and that is dangerous for democracy because we need to make sure that people exercise their democratic rights. evenif exercise their democratic rights. even if you don't think there's anybody on your ballot paper to vote for, even then you should turn up and spoil your ballot. people should recognise there is a duty to vote. i hope the also put people off from actually that right. you can get the very latest on the campaigns on the bbc website or bbc news app. let's take you to australia. australia is introducing some of the toughest measures in the world around vaping. as of today, it is illegal to supply, manufacture or import a vape, or sell one other than in a pharmacy. the restrictions apply to all e—cigarettes, whether they have nicotine or not. until october, those purchasing a vape will require a prescription. after that, customers older than 18 will be allowed to buy vapes after having a conversation with their pharmacist. australia already has some of the world's strictest anti—smoking laws. prime minister albanese had hoped that this would be a world first when it came to vaping laws, but opposition from the green party meant that it got watered down at the last minute. so what it means is, as of today, monday, anybody who wants to have access to a vape will have to go to a pharmacy and will need a prescription. but come october, you will be able to go into a pharmacy, have a discussion with a pharmacist and under the counter they will be able to give you a vape. under 185, though, will always need a prescription. of course, this this new law is hoping to bring down the number of people vaping, especially among young australians. data shows that, since the pandemic, consumption has really, really soared. australia is no stranger to tough anti—smoking legislation. they have already banned the imports of vapes. they've also limited the number of flavours available. in 2012, australia did pass legislation to bring in plain packaging on cigarettes to make them less appealing when it came to marketing. there is some concern, though. pharmacists are concerned that they will become a dumping ground, if you like, for vapes. of course, those selling vapes in retail spaces, petrol stations, those people will be out of a job as of monday. there is also a concern about the tough legislation, what that means for consumption of cigarettes. will this tough legislation mean a switch back to cigarettes, which of course defeats the object? but that's something we'll only really understand in the coming months once that legislation beds in. the glastonbury festival has ended with the american r&b star sza headlining the pyramid stage. shania twain performed in the famed legends slot, as 2024 marked the first time there's been two women headliners. our culture editor, katie razzall, was there. let's go, girls! glastonbury has been getting ready. as shania twain so memorably sings to have a little fun. # i feel like a woman #. and the queen of country didn't disappoint at her glastonbury debut. and there she is, on stage somewhere way across this sea of pink cowboy hats and leopard print outfits. a true legend in the legends slot here at glastonbury. in a year where female voices have sung out across the festival. after dua lipa headlined on friday, other women artists have been wowing the glastonbury faithful, including little simz and paloma faith. well, they're always telling us, well, you don't draw. you know, it'sjust like anything else. there's a lot of women in music today. there's a lot of voices. and i think that it's important that you just keep going forward. help me sing. award—winning camila cabello is 27 years old, with four albums and all too aware of the sexism in her business. there's definitely times in hindsight where i've been like, oh, ifeel like i maybe have gotten treated differently in the studio, or maybe my voice hasn't been taken as seriously. out of that hardship comes, you know, these incredible artists like sza, like dua lipa. we put on like incredible shows because we work ten times harder. for more than 25 years, shania twain's held the record for the world's best selling album by a female artist, and she's certainly showcased her pulling power today. katie razzall, bbc news, glastonbury. now it's time for a look at the weather with simon king. wimbledon isn't just about the tennis — it's also about the fans right around the world. and some of the most dedicated camp overnight in te hope of securing tickets available on the day. hi, is this the right place for the queue? hi, mike, welcome to the queue. just head around that corner over there and you'll meet the already thousand people queueing. a thousand ? i yeah, just over. there's the tent the tent, that has to be erected. and here's my neighbours. hello! from scotland. oh, look at that. and there, of course, what we're hoping to see, andy murray on tuesday. so that's what you are waiting for, that's what you are here? yeah. well, i hope i don't snore. so do i! cheering. looks a bit dodgy. i've made loads of friends tonight. so, what's your name? natalie. where are you camped? what number are you? so, i'm number23. so, right down there. so, you're going on centre court? yeah, we arrived at five o'clock this morning. amazing! finally, the tent is fixed! i'm in bed, the tent stayed up. it's what, half ten? but everyone's so friendly. so, you go to bed really happy that you're part of a sporting event itself. so, goodnight all. mike they're camping the night away waiting for wimbledon tickets. now it's time for a look at the weather with simon king. hello there. this morning has been a little bit sunny across eastern areas of the uk, but elsewhere it has been rather cloudy with some outbreaks of rain. as we go through this week, it is going to stay quite changeable, really. there will be a lot of cloud at times with some rain. quite windy, especially on thursday, and it will feel a little bit on the chilly side. this is the anomaly map, so temperatures will be below the average for much of the week, around four orfive celsius for many of us by the end of this week, so, yeah, it could be quite disappointing forjuly, especially where you have the cloud and the outbreaks of rain. that is going to push its way further eastward as we go through this afternoon. it still could be quite heavy around eastern scotland, the north—east of england. some brighter skies, though, developing in the west as that rain clears away to the east. maximum temperatures getting to about 15 or 17 degrees, perhaps up to 20 celsius in the south—east of england. through tonight, that rain will continue to move away, clearing for most of us. there will be some clear spells into tuesday morning with some showers coming in and across parts of western scotland. overnight temperatures, though, well, similar to the last few nights, really. getting down to about 11 to 13 celsius. so on into tuesday, there will be a fairly cloudy start towards some eastern areas. that weather front continuing to clear away, but we've got a small ridge of high pressure building in, so it will be largely settled. just some rain coming into the far north and west with a few showers in scotland, perhaps north—west england, as well. further south, though, again, it should be a largely dry day, often quite cloudy, but some brighter, some sunnier spells from time to time. top temperatures once again in the mid to high teens, perhaps up to about 20 or 21 degrees in the south—east. as we go into wednesday, perhaps a bit cloudier with outbreaks of rain in the morning. that will clear away, but then some showers once again coming in mainly towards northern and western areas. temperatures may be a little bit lower, so it will start to feel a bit cooler from mid week onwards, so 16 to 19 degrees. for thursday, it could be quite windy, actually. we've got this area of low pressure to the north. the isobars are quite tight there. some showers and some rain coming into some central areas. as we go towards the weekend, though, that should mostly should mostly clear away. it will become a little bit drier as we go into the weekend, but as you can see, really, for the week ahead, changeable. some rain at times, quite cloudy, with those temperatures about 15 to 20 celsius. bye— bye. live from london, this is bbc news. marine le pen's far—right party comes out on top in the first round of snap french elections. keir starmer pledges a "summer of change" as he begins the final few days of election campaigning. meanwhile, the conservatives warn against a labour "supermajority", as the opposition party continue to dominate opinion polls. ed davey throws himself into the final week of campaigning — with a bungeejump in eastbourne. and this year's wimbledon gets under way, as an injured andy murray says he will make a decision about his place in the tournament later on today. hello, i'm marianne machine me —— maryam moshiri. france is waking up to a changed political landscape after marine le pen's far—right national rally party triumphed in the first round of snap parliamentary elections. it is very early in this race, there will be more votes happening later in the week. let's cross live to mark lohan in paris. thanks very much indeed. welcome to the gorgeous streets of the french capital. this should be a city basking in the glory of hosting the olympics in little over three weeks but instead this country is waking up but instead this country is waking up to a political bombshell and a very different type of triumph, that of a political party of the far right, the national rally, which won the first round of france's snap parliamentary election that was called by president macron after a terrible result in the european elections three weeks ago, he called this election early hoping to catch the opposition on the back foot, but it seems it has been a disastrous miscalculation. let's take a look at the results from the first round because the national rally won 33% in this first round of the election, with the left coalition the new popular front behind with the left coalition the new popularfront behind in with the left coalition the new popular front behind in 28% and president macron's centrist in symbol trailing on 20%. —— ensemble. there is a frenzied period now among the opponents of the far right to say, can we drop out of necessary and rally around one single candidate to try and block the far right from getting an absolute majority after sunday's second round? 289 seats is needed in order for an absolute majority, that is the aim of the national rally. the opponents are saying lock that maybe we can block the far holding power. andrew harding has the latest on a very dramatic night. cheering a dramatic win yesterday for france's national rally. the party was, for years, considered too extreme for most french voters, with its anti—immigration, eurosceptic platform and its links to the kremlin. but last night, the rn, as it's known here, secured more than a third of all votes. the party's leader is marine le pen, who has her eye on winning the french presidency next. she speaks french she told the country it had nothing to fear from a right—wing, rn—led government. but there is a second round of voting here next weekend and things could still change. after yesterday's vote, president emmanuel macron called for centrist and left—wing parties to form a united front to keep the rn out of power. will it work? it's going to be a struggle. and all this in the middle of paris's preparations for the olympic games later this month. many french are worried about their country's deep political polarisation. the road ahead will become clearer in a week's time, when a second round of voting will determine france's future. that could be months of political deadlock. it could be a seismic political shift to the hard right, with huge implications for the country and the continent. andrew harding, bbc news, paris. andrew harding with all the trauma and developments overnight. now of course, the focus very much on the national rally, and whether it can galvanise supporters to come out in that second round election on sunday and get that absolute majority. the 28 president —— but the 28—year—old resident of the party, feared by the other side of the country, could he become france at�*s prime minister, taking the far—right to power for the first time since the second world war? earlier this morning he came out spoke to his supporters. translation: i came out spoke to his supporters. translation:— came out spoke to his supporters. translation: i think french

voters will be casting their ballots for. lots of mention of the national rally, that far—right party currently leading the polls after a strong showing in the recent european election. the party has moved away from the anti—semitic and three missed routes but its founders remain strictly anti—immigration. behind them is a group of left—wing parties. they want to raise the minimum wage and create a rescue agency for undocumented migrants. then trailing is president macron's ensemble alliance. his support for sending troops to ukraine now looks tenuous as they trial in the polls. so, just as they trial in the polls. so, just a big week now i had four people in france, lots to consider. let's go back to march in paris.— france, lots to consider. let's go back to march in paris. thanks very

paris. thanks very much. a little chaos on the - much. a little chaos on the political front perhaps affecting the chaos on the technology fund but glad to be back with you. as those results were announced last night in the first round, there was jubilation for the national rally supporters but on the other side of the country, among the part of the country that is horrified by the idea of the far—right in power, there were already some protest, with people taking to the streets in paris, lighting flares and marching through the streets. undoubtedly, we will see more of that if the national rally gets an absolute majority next sunday. but they have managed to detoxify over the years and have managed to present themselves as a credible option for government for many of their supporters and for large parts of the country. let's unpick this all now with an opinion director and pollster who joins now with an opinion director and pollster whojoins us now with an opinion director and pollster who joins us live. thank you for being with us. let's look at what the numbers would mean. if the results last night were replicated in a week, would that translate potentially into an

half of the franco german motor that runs the eu come at a crucial time in terms of what's going to happen with ukraine for example, national rally, there are doubts whether it would maintain full

at the headquarters, and the real concern of course going forward from now would be that if her party can get into government, she could win the presidential election in 2027 and then the far—right
