You have already indicated that you will do a calendar style agreement which would take seven years to negotiate. So youre not going to get it done in a few months and you know that perfectly well. Are the highlights from the first half of the debate, which is wrapping up as i speak, to be going to an advertisement break which will be oui advertisement break which will be our opportunity to speak to our Political Correspondent who was at the debate venue in salford for us. This lining up the shot before they go for their advertisement break. You can see that at the moment, youll be talking, a couple of interesting things i noticed was that Boris Johnson interesting things i noticed was that borisjohnson was talking about the nhs and insisting that there would be no question of the nhs. I gather you can hear us now. One of the things i was saying to us than that struck to me was Boris Johnson slapping down a suggestion that the nhs might feature in a trade deal with the United States. A deal he would like to achieve after britain leaves the eu. One of the tag lines which labour has and he was determined to try to kill that often early in this debate and as you may have seen there, Jeremy Corbyn had a document suggesting that the nhs would not be off the table and it is a heavily redacted document it all Jeremy Corbyn has to do is create an element of doubt around that issue thatis element of doubt around that issue that is why i think borisjohnson was so that is why i think borisjohnson was so keen on trying to kill that off. Survived well, he said he would get brexit done but he was pushing Jeremy Corbyn on this idea of not being able to say definitively whether he would leave or remain if labour had its promised referendum. That did not seem to sit at home initially but he seemed to persist and by the sixth time of raising it, he actually left a Jeremy Corbyn saying that the same formulation that can affect and that the people decide rather than setting up at his position would be. The Second Attack from borisjohnson was his idea, he loves his alliteration, dithering delay and the prospect of two referendums, Scottish Referendum as in the referendum ifJeremy Corbyn was ina in the referendum ifJeremy Corbyn was in a position to deliver either of those. The parties rolled out and on that particular question, Jeremy Corbyn had his best reply asking for some sort of coalition of chaos, theres been nine years of chaos in various correlations the dup arrangement in the liberal democrats the conservatives. So from Boris Johnsons point of viewjust to those punches, for jeremy Johnsons Point of viewjust to those punches, forJeremy Corbyn, just trying to broaden the debate. Very interesting that even when asked questions of character, Boris Johnson try to move the debate back onto brexit and he said that the lack of trust in politics was because politics would not allow a brexit deal to be pursued. He is very evasive when the presenter was trying to ask him about whether he had not betrayed the trust of the people. Talking about views and anti semitism, he said his best defence is to say that he had suspended or expelled people who we re suspended or expelled people who were guilty of anti semitism, but the criticism was if he had done too little too late and that is a people in his own party say, notjust people who are his political opponents. Throughout the campaign, bbc news will be looking closely at the places where the election could be won and lost visiting 10 parts of the uk where seats will be closely contested. Today were in southampton and clive myrie has been speaking to voters there to see what issues they want to be highlighted. In this election the most important issue for me is getting over this brexit issue. This election is about getting a decent mp that will secure my childrens future. We havent got one person that we can honestly stand behind, because you dont know where their anybody is telling the truth or not. Southampton. An affluent pocket of the south, prosperity by the sea. But this election has revealed fault lines. Wed rather be building boats, theres no two ways about that but at the moment we are building bridges. At the meerkat boatyard, the boss is angry. All the books are empty, workers hours have been cut. And brexit is the villain. Along with the politicians. They really have let the people down. If its remain, remain. If its exit, lets go. But it has to be sorted. Thats the problem. Regardless of who becomes Prime Minister . Regardless of who. Heavy industry and manufacturing were struggling long before brexit. The ford plant here shut down six years ago. Gig economy jobs, self employed and part time working now much more common. Can you pass me the thinning scissors . The thinning scissors . Thank you single mum jenny rents a chair at the salon, in a region where there has been a dramatic increase in workers on zero hour contracts. Like all good hairdressers, clients confide in her. I think, for the younger ones, they are really struggling to try and find work, especially when they have come out of college. Some of the hours are not always set in stone, or they are just getting a phone call and its not as regular as they thought it was going to be. Cruise liners are part of the architecture here. And in the shadow of a hulking ship, we catch up withjenny outside daughter amaris school. What is she hoping for, for this selection . I want people to be real. We havent got one person that we can honestly stand behind, because you dont know whether anybody is telling the truth or not. Water lubricates the local economy. The docks, the citys biggest employer, is booming. But elsewhere, southamptons jobs transformation is part of the story of this election. How secure or how worried people are could swing their vote. Ever since the Eu Referendum here and the election of donald trump in america there have been fears that social media platforms can be used by foreign powers to manipulate opinion and influence the result. Now, just weeks away from the general election, one of facebooks most Senior Executives has been speaking to the bbc. Steve hatch has told our media editor amol rajan that the company is consta ntly vigila nt. So far in this Election Campaign, has there been any foreign interference on facebook . To date, we have not seen anything. And instagram . Similarly. And whatsapp . Similarly. What i can say is, this is an area where we always have to be co nsta ntly, co nsta ntly vig ila nt. Today, no, but theres certainly no complacency by this organisation. Twitter has banned political ads, but you havent why . So, in this country, weve made this decision that advertising is part of the political process and is part of the election process. To ban political advertising actually has an inherent bias in it, in that it helps entrench the positions of the incumbents, at the cost of those that are less representative. Isnt it ultimately absolutely absurd that, whether or not people see millions of true or false claims online, its something you as a private company decide on and adjudicate on, rather than regulators and lawmakers in this country . For many years now, we think there is a clear role for reform and regulation in the political advertising space. In the uk, for every pound you make, your pre tax profit margin isjust 8. 5 . Thats artificially diminished, isnt it, in order to avoid paying full tax . No, it isnt. Its based on the rules in which we operate and every company thats like us operates. So, why is facebook so much less profitable in the uk than elsewhere . Based on where the value is created, which is the rules of taxation as theyre set at the moment. So, where are the things being built and made and generated . So, if thats the case, and Jeremy Corbyn were elected Prime Minister a few weeks from now, if he brought in this so called tech tax, you would pay it, you wouldnt lobby against it, and you wouldnt shift your operations elsewhere . Now, we will work with whatever government has the privilege to be elected by the people of this country. So you would pay this tech tax, you wont lobby against it, and you wont move your operations elsewhere . We will work with every government that comes in. We always want to be an additive to the uk. Weve been that for more than ten years and we certainly envisage ourfuture in the uk being more than ten years hence. Facebooks steve hatch speaking to our media editor amol rajan. Sir David Attenborough says the world is starting to act on the threat of plastic pollution. The broadcaster, who has been praised for raising International Awareness of the problem through his blue planet 2 programme, has just been given a Prestigious International award by chatham house, the think tank that focuses on international affairs, our science editor David Shukman has been speaking to him. Depressing images of Plastic Waste drifting in the water. Sights captured by blue planet ii, the bbc documentary series. Filming that revealed how our throwaway culture is damaging life in the oceans. Other forms of pollution are only too familiar. Presented by sir David Attenborough, the programmes were shown around the world and caught the public imagination, forcing governments and companies to take action. But every year, some 8 Million Tonnes of it ends up in the ocean. This london supermarket is one of many turning its back on plastic packaging, a movement that is gathering pace in many different countries. And when i meet sir david, at kew gardens in london, he says that the dangers of Plastic Waste are now so well understood that there are reasons to be optimistic. People in all parts of society are aware of what is happening and its vile, its horrid, its something we are clearly seeing inflicting on the Natural World and having a dreadful effect and there is something they can do about it. So in a way, its a bit of a litmus test to see if the population care about this sort of thing, and people do. And so, i think its very encouraging. But plastic pollution is a massive challenge, too big to fix rapidly. Last year, we filmed these soldiers in indonesia trying to clear a river, blocked by plastic. Sir david says that at least the problem is now being recognised. So what about another, much bigger threat . The rise in global temperatures, from the burning of fossil fuels. Even on this, sir david sounds a little more optimistic. Well, were not going to win, its not a win or lose situation, its not as simple as that. But we are not losing as badly as we might, and i think thats about as good as you can say. But i think we are changing our habits, and i think the world is waking up to what we have done to the planet, and young people, as we know, are demanding that things should be done about it. One demand is for many more installations like this a vast solarfarm in china. But theyre only one part of the answer to tackling Climate Change. Thats a problem so complicated it makes fighting plastic pollution seem relatively easy. Today marks 25 years since the First National lottery draw. The First Programme was hosted by noel edmonds on 19th of november 1994. The first ever number drawn was 30. Five and a half thousand millionaires have been created since. In recent years, the additional balls have been added, reducing the odds of winning the jackpot. The price is now two pound per line up from one pound on launch day. The national zoo in washington is saying goodbye to one of its star attractions a giant panda cub called bei bei. The bear, who is now 4 years old, has to return to china, under an agreement linked to chinas Panda Breeding program. A farewell ceremony is taking place at the zoo. Bei bei was born in the us and will make the journey east today on a specially chartered fedex plane. He will get to snack on 66 pounds of bamboo during the flight dubbed the panda express. Giant pandas are currently classified as a vulnerable species and are only native to china. There are less than two thousand in the wild. The headlines on bbc news. A damning investigation into care at shrewsbury and Telford Hospital trust shows babies and mothers died in what is thought to be the nhss worst ever maternity scandal. Jeremy corbyn and Boris Johnsons first live tv debate of the Election Campaign is drawing to a close. Officials in the netherlands say at least 25 people have been found in a refrigerated container on board a ferry bound for the uk we will be back with more on the Election Debate but the highlight so far that hour of broadcasting on another channel, is a commission by borisjohnson another channel, is a commission by Boris Johnson that another channel, is a commission by borisjohnson that brexit is less important to him than the future. No privatisation of the nhs or any trade deal which the United Kingdom may negotiate with the United States president , donald trump. Thereby handing the snp the ability to lead another referendum and lead to scotla nd another referendum and lead to scotland declaring independence in the uk, Jeremy Corbyn said therell be no with the snp and the coalition have been coalition of cassa been in charge for the past nine years. Before that, let us get a flavour of the days campaigning with electioncast. Hello, it is adam from election castor, a very quick miniature podcast because everyone is watching the head to head televised cast in the election cast podcast available on bbc sounds and i were going to talk about the events that have happened today. We already have an manifesto from the green party in england and wales it will be discussing it with, our Political Correspondent in over new broadcasting house, bbc hq we have a pairof broadcasting house, bbc hq we have a pair of environmental and political and Economic Experts who are. Just is our chief correspondent for this. Where was it . Was the vibe was met with the did say . Unusually, it was ina with the did say . Unusually, it was in a Wetland Centre in southwest london. Not your average for a political manifesto, where lots of birds are flying around which actually was not great for me because it was the, not great for me. But it was very much a piece for the green party, they were found as the green party, they were found as the Ecology Party in the environment is their thing. Quite a low key launch in terms of manifesto watches for other parties, but it had a lot of policy in detail in there and its the first one we have had. The big thing that we have been talking about all day is the huge pledge on tackling Climate Change, when is £1 billion a year that they want to put into tackling that. Uses was lowkey but if you listen to the co chair, he said it was anything but low key fuels in full on Climate Emergency mode. Everything needs to change. The new deal is an idea whose time has come. Today, were so proud to put forward a manifesto which puts us on put forward a manifesto which puts us on track to de carbonized every Single Centre of the economy by 2030 while delivering socialjustice across britain. The word everyone is using for this manifesto is ambitious with a capital a and massive text. How ambitious are they being here . Even an iron environmental terms, that taken by d carbonised in the entire economy in the legally binding target date for that set by parliament was 2050, so 20 years before they are currently online to meet that target, so that is hugely ambitious. The independent advisers on climate say that anything other than 2050 should not be considered. See already have a scale of the optimism and just think about what theyre talking about doing. D carbonised in every industry, steel, cement, fertilisers, the power system. Making 30 million Homes Energy Efficient by 2030, three million homes a year, getting rid of every single petrol car, every single diesel car. All these things on fossil fuels and all taxes on Renewable Energy to be removed. Changing the way we eat, the way reform, it is a monstrously huge challenge and lots of independent experts would say it simply not possible within ten years. Let us talk to chris from reality check, throw some more figures at us, how much its going to cost, how its going to work if it was a green government. 100 billion a year every year for ten years, so trillion pounds and most of that would be borrowed and so they want to borrow more than 90 billion a year and to put that in perspective, the government borrowsjust put that in perspective, the government borrows just over 50, put that in perspective, the government borrowsjust over 50, so add another 90 onto that, you are more or less tripling government borrowing and that is a lot of money to borrow but as justin said, borrowing and that is a lot of money to borrow but asjustin said, they are unashamedly saying that they wa nt are unashamedly saying that they want to affect an economic revolution, so they have to have a lot of money to do that. It sounds a heck of a lot, but it is about the same that we spend every year in education. So if you think the Climate Crisis is the Biggest Issue facing notjust the country Climate Crisis is the Biggest Issue facing not just the country but the world, then there is political imperative to say that this is money well spent and their argument is that by investing that much, you would create so manyjobs and if you put that much Public Investment in, you would encourage private investment into the whole massive project of a generation of d carbonised in the economy. When theyre talking about other costings left the bit about additional revenue from saving every year and they missed out the word billion, so looks like theyre going to save £29 40 looks like theyre going to save £29 a0 for things like that, i think made slightly more than that. Were also talking about all the revenues you want to generate some extra taxes, its quite a big list, isnt it official of the carbon taxes when the comes up lot. That comes up in a lot of very different forms and that does mean that yes, you will pay more for your petrol in your diesel. They say the bulk of flying is done bya they say the bulk of flying is done by a small amount of people those would have to pay some sort of flying fee, and to make this a more expensive so you do not do it. Also an interesting one that they are really trying to do is the tax on meat and dairy products. They do have bit of recognition and this is a whole big vision that ties together the economy and how it works fundamentally with this idea of changing the climate. Completely revolutionising the fit system, replacing that with a universal basic income or everyone in the country gets paid £89 a week and then theres top ups if you need an additional amount. Those with those who get more than that. Changing how everything works. I have noticed that everyone, for example, is having an arms race as to how many trees they plant every year. Having an arms race as to how many trees they plant every yeahm tells you just how high profile the environment is, i think it is currently running third, nhs first, brexit next and then the environment. That is an amazing position to be in. Obviously, it shows the profile issue has raised and it is great news. Amidst the stuff the recovery, the meat and bread of our patch is writing centre of the debate and also this idea of intergenerational justice of the debate and also this idea of intergenerationaljustice which would balance our greed against the need to look after future generations. This is considered the centrepiece of rebalancing will be think about the future and that is a fascinating idea and an idea they could rule out elsewhere and it is something that i think well hear more about the future because it is a way ofjustifying these kind huge evolutionary changes that people that the greens in the mainstream parties as well or talking about especially over a longer period. In explaining this in this manifesto. They actually want to bring max set up they actually want to bring max set upa ministerfor they actually want to bring max set up a minister for future generations. People ask what world theyre leaving the grandchildren theyre leaving the grandchildren theyre trying to put that into the political debate. They are different, they do not believe in economic growth, they are about economic growth, they are about economic sustainability. The whole basis of their plan with the is quite different in many ways from some the other parties. They also wa nt to some the other parties. They also want to replace the home office of the ministry of interior and for people who are fleeing trouble spots around the world. And the chancellor announced that there would have a carbon chancellor who would run this and it will become a new department for the green deal and there are two departments that run together, guise of broadcasting house, thank you forjoining us in front of the analysis there they did a list of actual bills that they want to introduce in the parliament. The centrepiece of this manifesto when very keen to focus ten specific parliamentary bills that they say they would introduce that they would not need a majority, that they would try and would try to introduce these as backbench bills if they could get them elected, that covers most of them elected, that covers most of the main points. The idea that we have very keen for new referendum support for that so the bill in these other things are green mps are pushing Parliament Within the first two years. And that is the sort of thing the other co leaders were talking about. Each and every green mp will have in their play, and the legislative agenda. To hit the ground running. Because the future will not give us another chance to get these next two years right. Will not give us another chance to get these next two years right lot of food for thought, but you can eat me, that is the interesting thing though, isnt it. Its not singly you cannot fly, its just making it less viable. And the thing is the petrol tax and flying, actually it financially not viable so actually it financially not viable so that is why theyre going with it. Thank you forjoining us and thank you to forjoining us. Well be back with another episode on bbc sounds with all of the analysis of the big debate. So download us from there. Good evening. Youre watching bbc news special, the First Television debate of the general Election Campaign that just ended, the first time a british Prime Minister in the lead of the opposition have ever debated had they had before. Borisjohnson and Jeremy Corbyn were live from the studio audience, the two leaders suggested that both parties are in chaos. I did not hear him say he was going to rule out an referendum on sculling. It is perfectly clear that the support for the Chaotic Coalition that he would be. To make we have had nine years of Chaotic Coalition already. Just a little bit of the knock about but a lot more substance in the debate as it developed over the evening. Our Political Correspondent iain watson is in salford and joins us live from the debate venue now. I guess, lets be honest, there are Prime Minister question duos, infrequent as they have been over the last few months as parliament hasnt been sitting for a lot of those weeks, but there have been a few occasions where borisjohnson and Jeremy Corbyn went head to head. I think it would be fair to say they havent exactly caught a light on many of those occasions. Was it different and i . I think it was a little bit different tonight. I got off toa little bit different tonight. I got off to a relatively slow start. I think it was standard responses to the main questions, especially on brexit, but it did ignite at certain points. For example, time and again borisjohnson points. For example, time and again Boris Johnson pushed Jeremy Corbyn to say whether he would leave or remain in the referendum that labour is offering. Again, Jeremy Corbyn wouldnt answer and made it clear hes going to negotiate a new tale ofa hes going to negotiate a new tale of a referendum after six months. Borisjohnson of a referendum after six months. Boris johnson persisted of a referendum after six months. Borisjohnson persisted at of a referendum after six months. Boris johnson persisted at that point the audience lapped itJeremy Corbyn. Equally, they had a good laugh at Boris Johnson corbyn. Equally, they had a good laugh at borisjohnson on the question of trust when he was asked about politicians being trusted. And his attack specifically on brexit seem his attack specifically on brexit seem to wear then towards the end when due to sloganeering. There is questions on Climate Change and the other area where there was a big was the idea that borisjohnson was putting forward the idea of a coalition between labour and snp, something they have denied. Boris johnson persisted with that particular line of attack, Jeremy Corbyn, of course, insisted there would be no deal now and no deal in the future. One other area i think which was very interesting was on the nhs, because borisjohnson, even before the question was formally asked, wanted to make it absolutely clear that the nhs wouldnt be up for a trade deal, are vulnerable any trade deal with United States. Equally, Jeremy Corbyn was waving a document around saying it was at risk. Any sense, they are both clashing on very familiar territory. I dont think there was a clear winner, there is going to be a snap poll, so we will see what the wider public thing. At the moment i am joined by michael gove, the conservative government mrs nair, and and requiring of the labour party. Lets start with firstly. You are consistently behind in the polls since the election started, and corbyn was very familiar with his own familiar areas. But did he break through and create an ointment that will connect with
