And eastenders stars take on strictly for tonights children in need. Coming up on tonights news watch, the strange tale of how three year old footage of Boris Johnson laying a wreath at the cenotaph came to be broadcast on monday morning. Join us tonight here on bbc news. Labour has unveiled plans to give every home across the uk free broadband in the next decade by partly nationalising bt. The shadow chancellorjohn mcdonnell said his partys proposals were visionary and the £20 billion cost of doing it would be paid for partly by introducing a tax on tech giants. The Prime Minister called it a crackpot scheme. Bts Share Price Fell after the announcement and the companys boss philipjansen said labour had under estimated the price of its pledge. Heres our Political Editor laura kuenssberg. Labour has a big giveaway it hopes to connect with you. Fast fibre broadband for everyone everywhere, if they win, within ten years time. Another big intervention in the market, another expensive job for the state. Labours money man is adding the internet to rail, water, energy and the mail he would like to take into public hands. The way well do it is if were putting that scale of public money and taxpayers money in, we want to ensure we own it as well and that means bringing parts of bt into public ownership. Another big nationalisation with a big price tag. Yes it is. Yes, and what well do in the normal way is firstly, well issue bonds for shares and what were doing is introducing a new tax, for the ones that gain their incomes from the internet, the apples and googles and amazons of this world and in that way we will pay for the day to day costs. Whether you look at free broadband, Free University fees, renationalisations, why should wealthy people in this country be entitled to free things . Because we believe we need a more equal society and the best way of getting that benefit to everyone is to make sure you dont have hurdles like means testing. This is hard nosed economics. If we do not get on and do this, we will fall. We already are falling behind our global competitors and we will fall behind even further. Future generations will not forgive us. Your critics might say youre just addicted to spending other peoples money. Im not at all. Other countries are having these visions and were not. Were being held back. If we dont do this, we will be held back even further. Both of the main Party Leaders were on the stump in lancashire today, both stage managing the campaign, both battle buses now on the road. But the approach borisjohnson is pursuing on the economy is very different. Is pursuing on the economy can you all hear me . Is pursuing on the economy £5 billion to subsidise expanding broadband. A huge programme of investment in our roads, in telecoms, gigabit broadband unlike the crazed, crazed communist scheme that was outlined earlier on today, we will give people gigabit broadband by 2025. With the quality of broadband achingly different in different corners of the country, it matters in this campaign. Scotland is ahead of the uk in terms of our current performance in many respects, the improvements we have seen in Broadband Availability recently but also in the scale of our ambitions. Ive been to about 30 constituencies so far. 30 down, many more to go. Perhaps more dramatic plans too. Yes, the third one, come on. But this time round, with these leaders and these parties, in this election you cant say theyre all the same. Bye, everybody, see you again. Laura kuenssberg, bbc news. Theres been a hostile reaction to labours plans from broadband providers and from the Wider Business Community with questions being raised about how much it would actually cost. Our Business Editor simonjack reports. The uk has some of the slowest average broadband speeds in europe. It even trails madagascar, making life difficult for the people and businesses closer to home in rocklands norfolk. We have trouble running the business, sometimes the card machine, which is linked to the internet is a problem. I was in spain for 20 years and i lived in the most rural part of spain you can imagine. My Internet Speed was 100. I came here to rocklands and my Internet Speed was one. If you have families, everyone comes home from school, all the homeworks done online now, it makes it really tricky. Children are not able to do their homework, people are not able to work from home. The average household broadband bill is £30 a month. Labour would make it totally free, but not to the taxpayer, who labour estimate would pay £20 billion. The independent National Infrastructure commission estimates it would cost £34 billion. So why is it so expensive . At the moment, most of us get our broadband through a fibre optic cable that links to these old green cabinets where the existing slower Copper Network takes over to do that last mile into our homes and businesses. Replacing all of that with individualfibre into every property is something that only 8 of the country enjoys at the moment. Doing the other 92 is one heck of a job. 0penreach, bts broadband division, has 32,000 employees and sells its services to other operators like virgin media and talktalk. If bt broadband will be free, other Companies Wont be able to compete while taxing us companies to help pay for it risks putting them off britain. Clearly, everybody would like to have things for free, even if you classify broadband as a utility, you pay for all your other utilities because you have to have a return so i think the cost of that provision will be huge and trying to levy that on taxes on other companies will not be popular, will not encourage investment in this country, it will just create investment uncertainty. Labour say they hope to come to an arrangement with bts competitors and if they cant, they might nationalise them too. Do you know anything about this bt share offer . Millions of people own shares in bt since the 1980s or through their pension funds. Labour Say Parliament will decide how much they get for them, meaning they may get less than market value. All parties agree that faster broadband is essential. Thats where the agreement ends. Simon jack, bbc news. Lets take a look at some of todays other election news. The liberal democrats say theyd invest heavily in tackling Climate Change if theyre elected to power. They want to spend £100 billion over five years in areas such as clean energy and transport, and home insulation. And they reiterated their decision not to go into any kind of coalition in the event of a hung parliament. The green party has pledged to introduce a universal basic income by 2025 to replace the current universal credit system. It would see every adult receiving a minimum of £89 per week and they say it would be funded through taxation. More than 100 people have had to be rescued by Emergency Services as parts of the midlands were hit by more flooding and drivers were caught out by rapidly rising water. There are more than 100 flood warnings currently in place in parts of england and wales. 0ur Midlands Correspondent sian lloyd reports from evesham in worcestershire where the river avon burst its banks. Yeah, so would you like us to bring you out of the property because of the water . You would like to be evacuated . Rescue boats have been launched throughout the day in evesham as water levels on the avon continue to rise. Its been a quite protracted incidence for us, theres been a number of incidents going on across the county. And this is just one of many that our crews are dealing with currently. The river has reached its highest level since 2007, with only one road through evesham left open. This is one of the main routes through evesham, but half a mile is currently submerged beneath the flood water. Its meant that many people havent been able to get through to their appointments at the Community Hospital today and its had to restrict its services. The hereford and worcester fire and rescue service have helped more than 100 people in the past 2a hours, including trevor, who had become trapped inside his own home. I couldnt get out on my own. You know, i tried that earlier on, and its too deep for me to wade through, even with the waders on. No such problem for this evesham resident, but with water levels still rising in some places, a number of communities are on standby. All this waters working its way through. Its taking a long time on the big rivers. Its likely that its not going to peak at tewkesbury and upton until saturday, possibly sunday. With the rescuers preparing themselves for what could become a busy couple of days. Sian lloyd, bbc news.

Firefighters helped rescue a man after his car ended up in this flooded ditch. These were the scenes in beverly, where one woman had to be helped back from her house. People watched as waters rose quickly. But crucially, very few houses were flooded.

The mother of a 10 Year Old Girl who died after contracting an infection in a cancer ward in glasgow has claimed there was a cover up over her death. In glasgow has claimed the mother of a ten Year Old Girl who died while being treated at glasgows Childrens Hospital is claiming there was a cover up over her death. Kimberley darroch says she believes she was lied to after milly contracted an infection at the hospital that the family think was linked to a contaminated water supply. The scottish Governments Health secretary Jeanne Freeman said she understands why the family feel let down and is committed to finding out what happened. Lorna gordon reports. 10 year old milly main had been receiving treatment for leukaemia. She was a character. Everybody loved being around milly, she was a lovely, caring girl. Her mum said she had been recovering when she caught the bacterial infection linked to her death. She says the family were kept in the dark about the possible source of the infection. I think they knew prior to millys death that the water was contaminated. I feel like they knew that this was the infection that killed my daughter. But no one has come forward to tell us. Millie had been a patient here at this flagship hospital in glasgow. It has been beset by problems since it opened in 2015. Two patients died after contracting an infection went to pigeon droppings. Last year, there were 23 cases of infections potentially linked to contaminated water. Documents from a whistle blower suggest the problems may stretch further to the time when milly died. Millys mother is demanding answers from the health board responsible for her daughters care. Stop lying, stop trying to cover things up. Be honest, be open, tell the truth. A public enquiry exploring the issues surrounding safety at this hospital is due to begin soon. Greater Glasgow Health board said there is no way to identify the source of millys infection, but added that they want to answer any questions her family may have. Lorna gordon, bbc news. The former Us Ambassador to ukraine, who was fired by donald trump, has told an impeachment hearing in washington that she felt threatened and intimidated by the president. Marie yovanovitch told the Congressional Committee that Donald Trumps personal lawyer had worked to discredit her and said his government had been manipulated by corrupt foreign interests. Mr trump is accused of pressurising ukraine to dig up damaging information about his democratic rival, joe biden. The mayor of venice in italy has closed the citys historic st marks square, which has been flooded again by another exceptionally high tide. Theres concern that the salt water could damage the monuments in the square which is a unesco World Heritage site. The flooding is still among the worst in the last 100 years in the region. There have been developments today in the court action by the duchess of sussex against the publisher of the daily mail and the mail on sunday. Legal papers filed by the duchess have been released by the website byline. Our Legal CorrespondentClive Coleman has been following the story. In the papers today, allegations from the duchess of sussex that the mail lied to its readers about publishing the full context of a letter that she wrote to her father, hand written letter to her father, thomas markle, that they left out key passages of that letter because it would undermine the negative portrayal that they were seeking to give of her. Thats her allegation. That the paper made up a series of claims about her baby shower, about her relationship with her mother, and that they invented a series of false claims about the refurbishment work of her home with prince harry, including that the couple falsely bought a £5,000 copper bath, which she says doesnt exist, a £500,000 soundproofing system, again which she says doesnt exist, and taken together, and also that was done at taxpayers expense, taken together, this is a strong allegation that there was a campaign of fake news against the duchess of sussex. In the last few minutes, the mail on sunday has responded to the release of court papers with a statement from its managing editor saying that as we have said before, we will be defending this case with the utmost vigour, there is nothing in this document which changes that position. That is the response from the mail on sunday. This is a supermarket trolley. Jack pitman is 23 and is not close to his family. And what happened when it rained .

Im joined now by a man you all know, joe wicks, who has become a children in need ambassador. It has been a busy week for you, hasnt it, joe . |j been ona busy week for you, hasnt it, joe . |j been on a uk tour exercising with children all over the place. We go and doa children all over the place. We go and do a work out and get the kids work out and energised and raising money for children in need. Today, we finished with a live stream went across the country in about ten or 15,000 schools took part. It has been incredible. Ella mikel 15,000 schools took part. It has been incredible. Ella mike i suppose over the years children in need has concentrated on children in sad circumstances, but there are also to ways we can improve the lives of children, whether it is fitness and health, that is all part of the big picture, isnt it . That is what ive been doing for the last couple of years. Feeling positive and getting involved in fitness. This whole tour as been about training kids, taking pudsey along for the ride, raising money for children by getting them for it and then them leaving that room with a smile on their face. I hope next year that me and pudsey can hit the road and do it again. This is your first year as a ambassadorfor children this is your first year as a ambassador for children in need, have you experienced anything like this before . What is it like single this before . What is it like single this going on . Ive done breakfast tv and a few cooking demos, but i havent been to a place like this where the energy is so electric and the kids are so excited, performance doing rehearsals. Iwill announce the kids are so excited, performance doing rehearsals. I will announce at 8pm how well the schools of dun. Without telling us the total, are you pleased . Of course, the money is incredible, but tune in and you will see it. Why is it important for you to work with young people . You are wearing a blue peter badge, recognition of how much you been doing over the past few days . |j recognition of how much you been doing over the past few days . I did in interview for blue peter, and ive been on a mystery and myself for a few years. I visited 15 schools and this is my most important work, my real legacy. I wa nt important work, my real legacy. I want to be remembered for making an impact andl want to be remembered for making an impact and i believe that if i keep pushing it and getting kids exercising, i can help with Mental Health and obesity and make a difference in the country. There are lots of people who will think about when they at school and would not know how they would react to this initiative, again, what is the initiative, again, what is the initiative being like . It has been incredible. Pudsey is the star of the show. They are screaming and shouting and when they walk in the sports hall, they are so excited to engage. When they see me on youtube they get excited, but they really do leave the hall with a massive smile on the face. Exercise makes us feel happier, it is not about fat loss, it is about feeling good and having strong Mental Health, that is the message i am pushing. I hope more kids get involved and arrange the culture of the household and getting the parents involved in exercising together. The element before we let you go, anything in particular you are looking forward to tonight . Im going on at 8pm, but i want to see a performance from the show big.

Last year, the total raised by children in need past the £1 billion mark so tonight they will be hoping to add tens of millions of pounds to that total with a bit of passion from the public and some pudsey power as well. I think we would raise the money if we got you on the dance floor. I think people would pay to see me leave the dance floor as quickly as possible. I can see the logic of what you are saying, but i dont think it says anything positive about my particular moves in that arena. A top night ahead for children in need. Thank you very much. Time for the weather. We will see little change in the weather. Into the weekend, low pressure always nearby, it will stay unsettled and cloudy for many of us, further outbreaks of rain and it will stay chilly for the time of year. This area of low pressure has caused all sorts of problems for the western half of europe, heavy snow, torrential flooding as we have seen in venice, and it has brought us dreary weather which will continue through the night, lots of cloud, outbreaks of rain at times, certainly for england and wales and southern and eastern scotland. Clear spells in the south east and north and western scotland and northern ireland, where it could be quite cold with frost and fog patches. Into saturday, the best brightness across the far north west of the country, thicker cloud further south, some patches of rain here and there, a few glimmers of brightness, wind lighter across the board so it shouldnt feel quite as cold as it has the last few days. Heading into sunday, it could be wet through central portions of the country, some brightness top and tail of the country. Hello, this is bbc news. The headlines.

Bbc news is looking at the political priorities in different parts of the uk, and visiting those constituencies where the election could be won or lost. Today, our scotland editor sarah smith has been finding out what matters to people in aberdeen. Fire is the greatest hazard any of these oil workers could face. They come to aberdeen from around the world to learn how to douse the flames. This is a very multinational industry that could be significantly affected by changes to immigration regulation. You have not enough skilled people in the uk. Thats why we are looking for guys from different countries. Here on the edge of the north sea, highly skilled workers are in short supply. Scotland, with its ageing population, needs Migrant Labour more than the rest of the uk. So the Scottish Government wants to control immigration policy a highly contentious idea. Im originally from algeria. I came here to provide my skills. I think having the ability to hire the best skilled professionals out there to support the needs for industry has to be an economic decision. It is an industry decision. It shouldnt really be driven by political agenda. Just feeding this industry is a huge task in itself, requiring caterers from all over the world. European, you know, french, italian, spanish. Greek, polish, french, italian, weve got an indian guy. Many of these workers are classed as low skilled employees, so their firms worried about future immigration restrictions. 10 of our workforce is from outwith of the uk, so its important that we still have that access. The exotic plants in the Winter Gardens have come from all over the globe to settle here in aberdeen. Luckily enough, im local, so ive been coming back and forth to this park all my life. With one in four people in aberdeen born outside the uk, the staff here have noticed the changes. Do you ever hear people saying there are too many immigrants here . Yes. And that these are jobs that should be going to british people . Yes, i do. The problem is, the british people wont always do the jobs, so we need these other people to come from other countries because theyre the backbone. We simply cannae sustain scotland without input in immigration. If we didnt have that, we wouldnt be the country that we are. The immigration debate sounds different in scotland because the country has a greater need to welcome incomers. Without them, it simply wont be possible to grow this economy. Nominations for those standing in next months election have now closed, and for the first time every candidate will receive a leaflet advising them on how to protect themselves. The document tells prospective mps when and how to report any abuse or threats, to the police. Our home affairs correspondent, Daniel Sandford reports. The murder ofjo cox during the Eu Referendum campaign of 2016 was the starkest example of the new dangers faced by people taking part in elections. Today her sister told me she welcomed the new security advice being given to candidates in this election. In the weeks afterjo was killed there was a short period of time when politicians and others talked about doing things differently and being more compassionate and understanding, even with people that we disagree with, and that didnt last for very long and i think unfortunately the past three and a half years, things have got progressively worse, so i think its really sad that this advice is needed but i also think its really important. Chanting soubrys a liar since 2016 there has been a striking increase in politicians being abused in person, by post and online. Death threats are not unusual. Anti semitic, racist and homophobic abuse are common. So for the first time, all candidates are receiving this guidance from police, including advice such as. This is about all of us getting to the 12th of december with everybody being able to have gone out, done the campaigning they want to do, have debates and discussions they want to do but everyone doing that safely. As well as the written guidance, all Police Forces will be inviting candidates in for a security briefing where they can meet the officer who will be responsible for handling any reports of intimidation they make and those reports will be collated, nationally so that Senior Officers can have a picture of the security situation right aross the uk. 0ne concern is that much of the canvassing in this election will be taking place after dark, but at the heart of todays guidance is legal advice, explaining to candidates the kind of abuse and threats that are criminal offences and encouraging them to report these so police can take swift action. Daniel sandford, bbc news. At least four people have died in the latest wave of bushfires in australia. Hundreds of homes have been destroyed. Conditions improved on friday, but crews were still battling about 120 blazes across New South Wales and queensland. There are fears of stronger blazes with temperature forecast to rise again this weekend. 0ur correspondent Shaimaa Khalil is in the town of glenreagh in New South Wales. Going through the rubble of the place he called home for 22 years. A fireball hit from the forest and this is what is left behind. We stand in the middle of what used to be warrens sitting room, he is still processing what he lost. The emotions inside kind of thing that you still want to cry and stuff like that, plus, it s still cranky that it happened. Why me . When i found this place, it was a place that was my life. Never to move again, it is the family. A lot of memories. Yes, and that is the hardest part of it. The smell of smoke here is so strong, it fills your airwaves the minute you step out. Some of the tree trunks are still smouldering and because catastrophic fires have been blazing through this area for the past few days, the damage here to some of the properties is devastating. The winds have settled a little bit, but authorities are saying that the danger is far from over. All through the day, firefighters have been patrolling the area. Theyve been making sure people are ready for the worst. The owners here have already left. The flames are under control for now, but with the heat soaring and the continuing drought, there are fears of a new wave of fires in the coming days. Residents have been asked to go, but some are choosing to stay. It is worse now, the fact that the fire is everywhere. So the resources are really stretched, you know, to have a fire engine close to us is doubtful. Yes, because as i say, there are so many fires everywhere. But you staying put . We are staying put, yes, definitely. It is impossible to escape the devastation here. All this and the scorching heat of the australian summer hasnt started yet. Rain is all we need and it will all be over. Until it rains, we will keep fighting fires for months and months and months. This weeks bushfires have started the Climate Change debate again. The government refuses to be drawn on the issue. Scientists won that if they dont, things could only get worse. As warren gets ready to rebuild his home in his life, everyone here is bracing themselves for what this new threat could mean for them. A non stop flight from london to sydney has landed 19 hours and 19 minutes after take off. It sets a new Long Distance record for a passengerjet. The Australian Airline qantas say the test flight was aimed at researching the impact of such a long journey on both passengers and crew. Luke jones was onboard. Id just like to welcome you aboard our qantas boeing 787 dreamliner. This is zulu novemberjuliet. Welcome to the longest and furthest commercial flight. This is london to sydney direct in 19 and a half hours, but its not commercially available yet. This is a test, research flight. Its basically to see if ultra long haul is doable for people in the cabin and in the cockpit. The first ever london to sydney flight, 100 years ago, took 28 days. This double sunrise flight did it in 19 hours and 19 minutes. This plane is almost spookily empty. Theres only 53 of us on board because thats as many as it can carry this distance. The idea is to carry out some research. This thing may be convenient, but is it safe . Special meals have been planned and exercise is being regimented. Were going to do it three times. Ready . Stretch. That was all right. The passengers are being monitored to assess the impact. Every single organ in our body has a clock, and the master clock in the brain is trying to synchronise all of that. And to do that, it takes cues from the environment. The three main important cues are light, meals and exercise. Far more important, though, is the monitoring of the crew. So, the crew are wearing these different activity monitors, and what we are getting from these monitors is an indication of their activity every minute. There are cockpit cams watching their faces. Theyre getting urine samples. And what is this measuring or not measuring . This is an electroencephalogram. Its measuring your brain activity. It gives us a good indication of, for example, there might be different points throughout the flight where your alertness might change, and we can see what impact that has and really look at the factors that may impact that. Its the last couple of hours of the flight now and this second sunrise has just peeked into view. This flight is technically possible, because weve all been on board doing it, but to make it commercially viable, to fill this plane full of people, they havent even got planes yet which can carry people that distance, and the regulations arent in place yet that would allow it. But the hope of ultra long haul flight is a little bit closer. And when we land, a bright and bouncy welcome party. Even though my body is telling me its the middle of the night.
