After an emotional triumph for anthonyjoshua in saudi arabia, he tells the bbc hes setting his sights ever higher. When i keep on breaking down each barrier, and i keep on getting over each hurdle, sooner or later, ill be looking directly at the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world. And ripe for the picking the fate of a £90,000 artwork. Good evening. With just four days to go till the general election, political leaders have spent the day on the campaign trail emphasising their key messages. Borisjohnson called thursdays vote a historic chance to move forward, whileJeremy Corbyn said his party is offering an ambitious plan to transform the country. Heres our deputy political editor, john pienaar. The cabinets orders today hit the phones. And a surprise call for someone. Hello, mr walker, hi, its borisjohnson. Well, at least it wasnt a phone prankster or a con artist, though his opponents claim borisjohnson is a bit of both. Just four days to go and hes after more votes and more trust, today, promising to bear down on immigration after brexit, and campaigning on his favourite theme. We are a party that is going to get brexit done. By when . By 31st january, and weve got a deal thats ready to go. Its an absolutely fantastic deal, isnt it . Its already there. How many members of the conservative Party Standing at this election support our deal . Every single one. All the leaders are hammering their core messages in the time thats left. The labour leader in wales trying to reach beyond the converted with his pledge of an economy transformed, of billions more for hard up services. You cant cut your way to prosperity, you invest your way to prosperity, and theres no more important investment than investing in young people, children and the next generation, and that is what. Applause. And that is what i want our Labour Government to do. Welcome tojo swinson, leader. Jo swinson has changed direction, talking less about reaching downing street, suddenly cancelling brexit, more about hooking up with others to get another eu referendum. We have already in the last couple of years been working very constructively across party lines with labour mps, with conservative mps, with nationalist mps, with green mps, independent mps, where we agree to try and secure a peoples vote, and that constructive spirit will be the way in which liberal democrats will approach things after the election. And if no party wins on its own, the snp leader knows who she could support in exchange for an independence referendum, among other demands, and who she couldnt. I will never do anything that puts borisjohnson into downing street. So, he doesnt need to worry . But labour, in order to get a queens speech and a budget through if they are in a name in our minority position need the support of another party, and if scotland votes for the snp in a Hung Parliament giving scotland enormous leverage, then i will exercise that firstly in line with scotlands interests. Not long till we know who, if anyone, ends up in control here, after the theatre of election night, after millions of british Voters Decide on thursday whose wishes are finally granted. And john is with me now. What would you say is the strategy being deployed in these final days, and what are the hurdles to overcome . Well, everything you hear in these last few days, if it sounds familiar, it is because it is supposed to. On all sides, the parties are calculating that the voters who could decide the shape of the final result will only make up their minds at this, the tail end of their minds at this, the tail end of the campaign, and they all have work to do, notjust in getting their loyal vote out but in addressing the Big Questions of trust that hangover certainly the two main contenders for downing street, borisjohnson and Jeremy Corbyn. Labour campaigners out on the campaign admit privately that a lot of habitual labour voters are saying they dont want to see Jeremy Corbyn in no 10, but borisjohnson also has his issues of trust. Today, that thorny issue of the irish border after brexit flared up again, there was borisjohnson insisting that goods would flow back and forward between the island of ireland and mainland great britain, without stops and checks, and he said a government report that said the opposite was simply wrong. Now, experts and ministers in his own government to contradict that. And by the way, tomorrows Financial Times carries a report on another government report, which disputes Boris Johnsons government report, which disputes borisjohnsons claim that britain could be ready to leave the eu clea nly could be ready to leave the eu cleanly at the end of december 2020. It is not just cleanly at the end of december 2020. It is notjust about cleanly at the end of december 2020. It is not just about who cleanly at the end of december 2020. It is notjust about who the Voters Decide to trust, it is more, arguably, about who they choose to trust least. And it is quite extraordinary from one point of view that with so much at stake in this election, so many voters seem to regard the choices on offer with so little enthusiasm john pienaar, thank you very much. Success on thursday will depend heavily on how well the parties perform in marginal seats. Warrington south in cheshire is one of them. It voted to leave in the eu referendum, and in 2017, labour took it from the conservatives with a majority ofjust over 2,500. Bbc north wests political editor, nina warhurst, reports. Things seem to be moving in the right direction here. Unemployment is low, wages above average, the number of businesses has almost doubled in a decade. In warrington, you can still feel the legacy of the industrial revolution. Surrounding hamlets have become honeypots for the metropolitan overspill of liverpool and manchester. This is stockton heath, and this changing environment is the onejen has grown up in, and she recently joined the labour party because she doesnt think success here is being shared, and she blames the government. Theres food banks in warrington, like, yeah, ijust think that we we need to do more more for more people. We are one of the richest countries in the world, and why are people struggling so much in this country . Steel. Some of this will become the spines of schools and hospitals, parts of multi Million Pound projects, which martin says the state doesnt always manage well. The way they spend the money is very good for the construction industry, and i can make a lot of money out of it, but i dont agree with it. You think theres too much waste . I know there is. You know, whats really interesting here is that, more than anywhere elsewhere ive been since this election was called, is that no two people are the same. Everybody seems to be worrying about something different. And many of them are yet to make up their mind on who will get their vote. Four miles north is delem, a different world to stockton heath. Here, carol says shes struggling on universal credit. What she wants is more investment in her community. More things for youths to do of an evening, weekends, holidays. Because we cant afford to send them to clubs, its far too expensive, so, if it was government funded, it would be a lot easier, especially for the parents that work. Do you feel politicians care about you, care about your family . No, ha ha no. Heading south into the cheshire hills, this is lymm, where debate is centred around the political issue of our time. I think it is a pickle, if im completely honest with you. I voted to remain in the eu, but i think that boris, for me, is a good candidate, i think hes right for britain, but im not sure that brexit is completely right for britain. Do you ever remember feeling this conflicted before ahead of an election . Never because before, never felt anywhere near this conflicted. For their businesses, orfor theirfamilies . With their hearts or with their heads . The way warrington south votes will keep us guessing until friday 13th. The way warrington south votes will keep us guessing until friday 13th.

Police in india have arrested the owner of a bag factory in delhi where a fire killed more than a0 people overnight. Emergency services said their work had been hampered by the difficulty of accessing the building, and that it was lacking basic safety equipment. From delhi, Pratiksha Ghildial reports. The blaze broke out on the ground floor of this multi storey factory in the early hours of the morning, and then quickly spread to other levels. Rescue services say at least 100 people were sleeping in the building at the time, and died due to suffocation. At this hospital, relatives of the victims have been waiting desperately all day for any news about their loved ones. Many of the victims were migrant labourers from delhis neighbouring states. Among the families, there are several heart wrenching stories. Yasmin says her younger brother, who died in the fire, had been blessed with a baby boy this morning. Translation his third child was born today. He did not know about it. We cant find his dead body. We dont have any information. Mohammed lost two of his brothers in the blaze. Translation my older brother called me and said, save me, the fire is really big, so there is no hope to survive. There are many of us and we are all stuck inside. The countrys prime minister, narendra modi, described the fire as extremely horrific and expressed his condolences to the families of the victims. This is one of the worst fire incidents in delhi in recent times. But they happen regularly across the country. Many buildings lack proper fire exits and illegal construction is rampant. The cause of the fire is uncertain and an inquiry has now been launched into the incident. Pratiksha ghildial, bbc news, delhi. Three people including a 13 year old boy have been arrested in northamptonshire by Police Investigating a murder. A 25 year old woman was stabbed in rushden last night. Northamptonshire police said paramedics were called, but she died at the scene. The us defence secretary has ordered a review of the screening process for Foreign Military in the country, after three sailors were killed on a Florida Naval base. Mohammed Sameh Haitham and Joshua Kaleb Watson were two of those killed by a Saudi National who was training at the pensacola site. The fbi is treating the attack as a presumed terror attack. A 41 year old man has been arrested after video emerged appearing to show Manchester United players being racially abused by monkey gestures and chanting during yesterdays derby at manchester citys etihad stadium. 0ne footballer was also struck by objects thrown from the stands. Katie gornall reports. It was the moment the Manchester Derby turned ugly. Commentator something has just hit fred. Yesterday, as the united midfielder fred went to take a corner in the second half, objects including cigarette lighters were thrown at him. Oh, this is really poor, things are now raining down. Before a man was caught on camera apparently making monkey noises and gestures towards uniteds players. A video of the incident began circulating on social media. We encourage people to report and were really heartened that yesterday, a lot of people reported to us, so that messages to us, so that message is clearly getting through. Today, Greater Manchester police announced that a 41 year old man has been arrested, saying they hope. This arrest shows that we are taking this matter really seriously. And that they will. What happened here at the etihad is yet another reminder of how racism continues to plague football and it comes almost a year to the day after the city forward Raheem Sterling was racially abused playing at stamford bridge. It grabbed the headlines and led to a Chelsea Supporter receiving a permanent ban, while sterling was also one of a number of england players who faced racism and nazi salutes during the euro 2020 qualifiers this year. The necessary departments need to do the right things to stop it in the game, because it is a big negative of the sport, and just for the country, its not something that you want to see. Manchester uniteds players celebrated an important win last night, but today, football again has to confront an all too familiar problem. Katie gornall, bbc news, manchester. Russia will discover tomorrow if it is to be banned from hosting and competing in all major sporting events for four years. The ban was proposed after russian officials were found to have manipulated drug test data. If the World Anti Doping Agency wada decides to enforce it, it will be a major blow to russias reputation and prestige. 0ur moscow correspondent Sarah Rainsford reports. These are nervous times for russian athletes, unsure what lies ahead. Anna has won multiple medals for her country, but russia is now sliding towards a four year ban from global sport for tampering with data on doping tests. I still am training and i am just going to focus on this because that is the area that i can control. The scandal began with the 2014 sochi 0lympics. For russia, for president putin, the games were a show of strength. But that proud party was ruined when a massive cheating scheme was revealed. Yuri ganus was part of the clean up act. Hes since reformed russias anti doping agency. But to prove things have really changed, officials had to hand over a key database of test results. Thousands of entries were deleted . Yes. Thousands . Thousands. For that, athletes are facing fresh sanctions. Mr ganus has come under pressure for speaking out but he wants those responsible removed. It is impossible to continue using this approach in the future, because today, we live in the tragedy time in russia, in sports, in russia. You still hear people here claiming this is all an anti russian claim, denying the evidence, as russia has done in so many other cases. But there are also people who are amazed that their countrys who are amazed at their countrys capacity for self harm, that, instead of moving on from this crisis and ending the isolation, russia has only made the situation even worse. When i tried asking the minister who was to blame for that, who altered the database, he refused repeatedly to answer. The consequences for russian athletes, though, will be far harder to avoid. Sarah rainsford, bbc news, moscow. With all the sport now, heres jane dougall at the bbc sport centre. Hello. British boxer Anthony Joshua has said he would welcome all challengers after his win over andy ruiz challengers after his win over andy ruinr. Joshua regained three heavyweight belts in his unanimous points victory. He sat down with our sports editor, dan roan, in saudi arabia. Back in boxings big time, this is how much it meant to Anthony Joshua last night having reclaimed his crown here on the outskirts of riyadh. The british fighters discipline proving decisive as he dominated andy ruiz to restore his reputation. Today, back at his hotel, joshua told me he wasnt getting carried away. When i keep on breaking down each barrier and i keep on getting over each hurdle, sooner or keep on getting over each hurdle, sooner or later i will be looking directly at the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world and i will be more than ready. So, looking far out sometimes blurs the vision and you forget the steps in front of you, im just focusing on what is ahead of me now. Against a much heavier opponent, he later admitted who later admitted he had not prepared properly for this fight, joshua gained revenge for his shock defeat in june. Even though its a brutal sport, it is the sport of boxing, so ijust stuck to my game plan, what i knew best, and thatis game plan, what i knew best, and that is how to box, and it took me all the way to the victory. So, what next . Boxing fans would love to see joshua in a mega fight against one of the other two giants of the heavyweight division, american Deontay Wilder or fellow british fighter tyson fury. With those two talking about a rematch of their own early next year, joshua may have to wait for his turn. But now his career is back on track, his message is simple, bring it on. |j career is back on track, his message is simple, bring it on. I will fight wilder, i will fight fury, as you can see by the resonate, i will fight them all, all challengers, or champions, are welcome to take on this current unified champion. Anthonyjoshua faced criticism for fighting here in saudi arabia, but in boxing terms it was a huge success. In boxing terms it was a huge success. He arrived as a challenger but returns home as a champion once again, in one of the most exciting heavyweight divisions for years. Dan roan, bbc news, riyadh. Infootball, celtic have won their tenth domestic trophy in a row, beating their bitter 0ld trophy in a row, beating their bitter old firm rivals rangers to lift the Scottish League cup. It was a match full of drama with a saved penalty and a red card, as Chris Mclaughlin reports. A soggy derby day in glasgow, but for this fixture, it never dampens the enthusiasm. The celtic end over here, the rangers end over here, and this divided city, in this city, the matchup is always big, but this game feels huge. The first final between the rivals since rangers financial implosion in 2012. Celtic were going for ten straight trophies. For those in blue, it was showing that under stephen gerard, theyre back. And it was rangers who came out swinging. Fraser forster denied ryan jack early on. But despite almost com plete early on. But despite almost complete rangers domination and totally against the run of play, this happened. More than a hint of offside, but christopherjullien sent the celtic end of hampden park wild. But before the fans finished celebrating, rangers got a penalty. Jeremie frimpong was sent packing, but the spot kick was missed by alfredo morelos. 0ld but the spot kick was missed by alfredo morelos. Old firm madness at its bonkers best. In the end they got thejob done. Its bonkers best. In the end they got the job done. It was far from pretty but celtics stranglehold on the silverware of scottish football continues. All the rest of the day football results are on the bbc sport website, but that is it from me. Now, you could be forgiven for thinking this isjust a banana stuck to a wall. In fact, its a piece of work by the italian artist maurizio cattelan, which, on friday, sold for more than £90,000. It was being exhibited at a gallery in miami up until last night, when as simonjones reports, it came to an untimely end. It was already causing a stir for its eye watering, if not mouth watering, price tag of £90,000, created by the italian maurizio cattelan, known for his humour and satire. But another artist, the american performer david datu na, found it too appealing, and decided to steal the show. Art performance. Hungry artist. He declared the banana was delicious. Art lovers, though, couldnt quite believe their eyes, and nor could the gallerys director. Are you kidding . No. I went there, looked at what was happening, and i didnt see the banana on the wall, so, and i realised that the guy was eating the banana. 0k, come with me. 0nlookers certainly thought theyd witnessed a spectacle. In the same way that the artist put the banana on the wall, he said, im coming here to eat the banana, thats my performance. Thats my performance. A replacement banana was soon taped back onto the wall. The man who devoured the original was asked to leave. The gallery insisted it hadnt slipped up, and that the value of the work lay in the idea behind it, not the individual piece of fruit. Simon jones, bbc news. Theres more throughout the evening on the bbc news channel. Now on bbc one, its time for the news where you are. Goodbye. More now on the allegedly racist abuse targetted at Manchester United players in yesterdays derby. Earlier, my colleague Martine Croxall spoke to paul mortimer, who suffered racial abuse while playing for aston villa and Crystal Palace in the 1980s. Paul went on to work for the anti racist campaign, kick it out. He told martine just how bad the racism had been during his playing days. It was very overt, very in your face, the crowd calling you names, throwing things at you, and this ta kes throwing things at you, and this takes me back there, throwing fruit. I had batteries, coins, everything you could think of, bits of rock, bits of seat, you had everything thrown at you. Bits of seat . Ive dodgy past a bit of a seat. You had everything thrown at you. This might seem everything thrown at you. This might seem a everything thrown at you. This might seem a strange question, but were they fans of your club . Always the opposition . Always the opposition, and historically that is what happened in football, the home fans job was to make it as hostile as possible for the away crowd and the away players, which is fine, its pa rt away players, which is fine, its part and parcel of the game. But its not fine if theyre picking on you because of the colour of your skin. Thats the problem. Its fine when it is all inclusive and by that imean, your when it is all inclusive and by that i mean, your performance is there to be critiqued. That is what im saying. But nobody should be having stuff thrown at them. So what did the clubs do then . Nothing really happened because they didnt know what to do and there was no legislation in place. But now, im not so sure. We will see what happens with manchester city. They will look at this fan, and i dont wa nt will look at this fan, and i dont want everything to be on his shoulders because this is a problem thatis shoulders because this is a problem that is happening throughout football. How common is it . You know, i think its happening more often than not. The problem you have is, its not really being reported. Because of social media, ten years ago we didnt have that but because we have it now, people are putting it on social media and people are talking about it now, so its there and now the next step is for people to deal with it and i dont think we really know how to deal with the problem. I really dont. What do you think should be done . We are at the stage now where banning, fining, shutting stadiums is not working. So dontjust ban somebody shutting stadiums is not working. So dont just ban somebody from shutting stadiums is not working. So dontjust ban somebody from coming to watch the match, perhaps for life, but make the club is responsible. Everyone keeps telling me it is the minority. Yes, its a minority, but we never do anything to the minority, so unfortunately the majority are going to have to suffer some pain to get to the minority, and by that i mean they might have to dock points, they might have to dock points, they might have to levy fines that are ridiculous in number so that it hurts, because what we need to ensure, what we need is a deterrent, proper deterrent, because we dont haveit proper deterrent, because we dont have it at the moment. How would that work . Youre saying it would be a collective Group Approach that no one would want their club to be docked points. Thats what has to happen. Fans will start to police themselves. The thing about it is also challenge fans as well, because every clu b also challenge fans as well, because every club has a hotline and kick it out have a reporting avenue can do it anonymously so you dont have to confront anyone. I dont think enough funds report. I know it doesnt happen enough so all players can behave, fans, but its for the authorities more than anyone else they need to step up and show leadership. It doesnt address the underlying racist attitude behind the actions, does it . No, it doesnt, thats a societal issue. Every Single Person in the stadium goes out to be part of society and thatis goes out to be part of society and that is where it bread. We have to educate people and challenge their behaviour patterns. Why they behave that way based on someone being different from them. Thats all it is, about dealing with difference and understanding difference. And until we can educate people, and what has taught them is someone different. Theres a way i can treat you and us being different, and until we educate people that that is incorrect, it will not go away. There will be heavy rain or showers combined with gales or severe gales, probably the strength of the wind is likely to be the bigger issue and we have had some very blustery wind already and thats been blowing in a lot of showers from the west and the main focus of the strongest winds remains to the south of england and south and west of wales. And already we have had gusts of 70 mph along the south coast of wales and into cornwall, and that of course is due to the storm that is bringing big waves, and for a while some heavy bursts of rain. It does dry off later in the night but its pretty windy elsewhere, mind you. The wind is changing to more northerly by the morning and that will feed down some colder air as well. During monday we will see slow changes and it will gradually become less windy as that ridge of High Pressure moves in from the west. That is pushing the strongest on the wins over towards the north sea, so very windy, especially in the morning and they showers down the eastern coast of england and scotland and there will bea england and scotland and there will be a few showers coming in from the irish sea into north wales and it will be a windy day but gradually the winds become lighter and most places actually are turning dry by the afternoon but it will probably feel a bit colder than it did on sunday. And with the wind is continuing to ease during the evening there could be a touch of frost briefly for the eastern side of the uk but then the wind will pick up again later in the night and we get weather fronts on the scene and we are drawing in milder air as well. A milder air will come with cloud and there will be a brace of rain, two bands of rain at least pushing through the country on the second one here looks like we will see the heaviest rain on that and the wind is particularly squally at this point as well. It should be a mild day with temperatures generally in double figures but heavy rain and very windy conditions as well. That will sweep eastwards during the evening, taking away the mild air and then we are into something a bit chilly on wednesday, low pressure towards the north west and still the risk of gales but otherwise it wont be as windy on wednesday and its a mixture of sunshine and showers, some of them heavy with hail and thunder but over the hills in the north there could be some wintry nuts as well. A chilly day, especially in the breeze and in those showers with temperatures typically six or seven. This is bbc news, im lukwesa burak. The headlines at 11 00 campaigning intensifies as politicians canvass in key battlegrounds with just days until the country goes to the polls. The conservatives say their australian style points based immigration system can control unskilled migration. What we want to do is bear down on migration, particularly unskilled workers who have nojob migration, particularly unskilled workers who have no job to come to. Meanwhile, labour set out their plans for social care, offering free personal care for older people in england, and an additional 10 billion pounds of funding. I want social care. In india, at least a0 people are killed
