The guardian says both borisjohnson and Jeremy Corbyn are set to embark you give says the company has cut the number of mps. But highlight that the predicted range of seats means that a Hung Parliament is a possibility. The guardian says both borisjohnson and Jeremy Corbyn are set to embark on a frantic final 2a hours of campaigning as the fight to sway undecided voters in what they call the most important election in a generation. The telegraph leads with the news that borisjohnson is set pledge there will be heavier sentences for terrorists, sex offenders, and violent criminals if hes reelected. The paper says mrjohnson believes that the criminal the daily mirror has an interview the father of jack merritt who died in the London Bridge terror attack. His father dave says that he feels that borisjohnson saw his sons death as an opportunity to score some points in this election. Note prizes for guessing what the independent is leading with, the pictures speak for themselves. The metro has some less than pleasa nt words forjohn ashworth. It comes after a recording was leaked of the Shadow Health secretary telling a friend well former friend now that labour wont win the election. Mr ashworth has said that his comments were simply banter. So no surprise that the election to dominates. Shall we start with the daily telegraph, pm pledges to get tough on serious criminals. Boris johnson has given an interview to the telegraph, and tough on crime and the causes of crime. Feels like pretty traditional tory territory. Hes reiterating a pledge that was all ready made in the manifesto for the last few weeks on abolishing automatic Early Release for criminals. But as ever with Boris Johnson, its a mixed bag. Theres also a bit of carrot along the stick in the form of an additional £500 million pledge to spend on youth centres to help rehabilitate young people in the justice system. What do you make of this . No surprise that he would be saying this on the eve of an election. Is it traditional to his death appealing to his traditional heartlands . Traditional to his death appealing to his traditional heartland57m the to his traditional heartlands7m the interview hes going to the daily telegraph, it is interesting that hes decided to focus on crime rather than exit because hes been talking about brexit day after day after day. But lots of people still have yet to make their minds up. Those people will vote how they did on the referendum, but their views on the referendum, but their views on breaks it will have made up their minds already. Hes focusing on the undecided, those who are still undecided, those who are still undecided on what to do in two days time when they get to the belt booth, if they go there at all brexit. Crime is a big issue that a lot of people care about a great deal. And it is interesting that he saysin deal. And it is interesting that he says in this interview that the general election was in the gods, and he said he was genuinely worried that tactical voting could put Jeremy Corbyn into number ten. Is that a get his voters out . He has to say that. No prime minister, even if he had twice the pole lead that he has at the moment, will go into the la st has at the moment, will go into the last couple days saying it is in the bag, they are all 0k. He has to motivate his voters and candidates, and his Party Workers to go full pelt in the last couple days to make sure that he gets every single vote thatis sure that he gets every single vote that is going. Sol sure that he gets every single vote that is going. So i think it is a no complacency message rather than coming onto some interesting polling ina minute coming onto some interesting polling in a minute ratherthan a genuine fear that he will lose the keys to downing street. Interesting, lance is saying here is on the interview focus on just focusing on crime. But lets not forget about brexit. And unveiled with the least subtle metaphor of all time, the tractor bearing the slogan get brexit done unveiling in the midlands target seats. Its very predictable, but i do think this pledge of crime, taking a harsh line on automatic Early Release, is tapping into a deep well of Public Satisfaction with the fact that high profile crimes committed within the last few weeks, several criminals have been able to go commit crimes they would not have otherwise been able to do. And many victims of crime would understandably be very angry to find that the perpetrators of crime are often being let out on sentences that are half the one that was stated to the general public. I think it is interesting to have swerved away from breaks it, but i think there is a message here. Lets turn to the metro. Not my words, these are the words of the Shadow Health secretary, john ashworth, secretly recorded saying he expects his party to lose the election. He says it was just banter, does his party to lose the election. He says it wasjust banter, does it sound like banter to you . Full disclosure, ive knownjohn ashworth for over 20 years. Weve worked together on the Labour Party Election campaigns in the early to thousands. And listening to the way he spoke on the tape, it sounded like the authentic john he spoke on the tape, it sounded like the authenticjohn ashworth to me. Ithink like the authenticjohn ashworth to me. I think he was stitched up by this guy, greg baker, who was a friend, presumably isnt a friend any more. Tory activists apparently. Tory activists in canterbury. Hes been stitched up. Whether it was wise to pretend it wasjust banter you cant win an situation like this, you cant say you meant every word of it and are heading to a big defeat because you dont say that two days before a foreign election campaign. Sol two days before a foreign election campaign. So i feel for him today. Its not necessarily a disaster for the labour party, because you talk about how you manage expectations, and im convinced there are lots of people in the election two years who voted labour because of recognising the fact that there is very little chance of labour winning. So it sounds a bit convoluted, but i think that be people who will be prepared to vote tactically and cast their vote for the labour party so far as Jeremy Corbyn will not be prime minister. You agree . I agree, also that anything that will read it complacency amongst the conservative ra nks complacency amongst the conservative ranks could well benefit the labour party. There are many voters who may be sympathetic to the tories and dont want to see Jeremy Corbyn be sympathetic to the tories and dont want to seeJeremy Corbyn in number ten, but the sense that labour is being screwed over, that may convince those who are ready to vote conservative to stay at home and hold their nose and get over with it. To that end, lets look at the times, which has got the results ofa uke the times, which has got the results of a uke of pole. Tory leads edge ahead. We must stress this isjust one pole but it makes for quite interesting reading. It is, and all the politicos over the land will be polling the politicos over the land will be polling pouring the politicos over the land will be polling pouring over this. This polling pouring over this. This poll is called mrp, which everyone understands is. It clearly speaks for itself. It is a large sample of polling, but also a lot of analysis constituency by constituency. If you go through the figures, it tells you their production for how each seat in the country will go on thursday. And as such, it is incredibly valuable tool both for the parties to know whether they are in trouble or if they have a chance of winning. But also for people who might be interested in tactical voting because they can look at their own seat and think, is it worth me holding my nose voting for somebody i dont like so much in order to achieve a bigger goal . But arent there always margins for error in these polls . We cant rely on them, can we . Know, they cite that there isa can we . Know, they cite that there is a whole range of predictions, the majority for tories is casted anywhere between 311 and 367. Of course 311 would not be a majority, it would be within the realms of a Hung Parliament. There is margin for error but it is interesting that it is precisely the same methodology that two weeks ago was predicting such a significant majority. It means something went wrong for the conservatives in this campaign. Means something went wrong for the conservatives in this campaignm is clear there is a narrowing. There is clear there is a narrowing. There isa is clear there is a narrowing. There is a significant narrowing because it is exactly the same methods used two we e ks it is exactly the same methods used two weeks ago that gave the tories 40 more seats than they will get if this is right. The other thing to rememberabout this is right. The other thing to remember about this is the methodology and polling that got it right in 2017 when all the others got it wrong. I do wonder what role the weather will play on thursday, which of course doesnt come out in any pole at all, does it . If it is terrible weather, will people stay at home . Theres the risk of people staying at home in bad weather, and it isa staying at home in bad weather, and it is a mixture of the weather and the numberof it is a mixture of the weather and the number of activists you have on the number of activists you have on the ground. Again, that is where the labour party have an advantage. They have many more members, and all those numbers are much younger and less bothered about going out in the rain and knocking on doors, getting people out. I think there is quite a bit this evening in the headlines and in this poll that will call some concerns to the conservative party. True, but it might also spur those sitting on the fence who dont want another election so soon to go out and get on with it. But the other thing to remember is i wondered whether it might prevent a few elderly voters to get outjust whether it might prevent a few elderly voters to get out just from getting out due to the weather. I think it is 20 of folks have already been posted already, and theyve missed all these recent storms in teacups, rather more significant storms. So it is very difficult indeed. Lets leave it there for now, but much more at 11 30pm when we will have more time to talk about more papers. Thats it for the papers this hour. Lance price and madeline grant will be back at 11. 30pm thank you lance price and madeline grant. Goodbye. Hello there. We had some very strong squally gusts of wind on tuesday, looking at the top just in the northwest of wales, we had a number of places in wales, Northern England and scotland where we had gusts well into the 60 mph range. Almost reported some disruption outside as well. A squally band of rain, this area of cloud has been sweeping its way eastwards. Still raining across the far east of england at the moment, but ourfocus now is the far east of england at the moment, but our focus now is on the speckled cloud to the west which is showered cloud. This line is a trough that will be quite important for our weather. The other thing youll notice is it is set to become quite a bit colder over the next few hours as well. 0vernight tonight, showers will tend to become confined to Northern Ireland and scotland where they will continue all through the night. With snow up over the high ground and scotland, things can get sleepy here for a time. But otherwise the brisk winds should keep us frost free. That said, the combination of low single figure temperatures in the brisk wind will make a cold start to the wednesday for sure. Showers will feed in from Northern Ireland and scotland all day, hail and wind mixed Northern Ireland and scotland all day, hailand wind mixed in, still some snow over the high ground and scotland. England starts off of sunshine across the midlands in eastern england. Western england and wales see these line of showers working into the morning, then pushing its way eastwards through the day. That is our trough i showed you on the satellite picture. It means most areas will see 1 to downpours through the day at some point. It will feel colder through the afternoon, temperatures 5 9dc. Through wednesday night, the principal ease off just a through wednesday night, the principal ease offjust a little bit, allowing such a frost developed early in the night. Later in the night we will start to see temperatures picking up in the southwest as we see the clouds thickened, and outbreaks of rain arriving, tending to leave the frost across the eastern and northeastern areas by the time we get a thursday morning. Across these areas we will have bright stars to the day with sunshine. As is weatherfront have bright stars to the day with sunshine. As is weather front bumps into the cold air, we could have a spout of fill snow across Northern England, but ultimately that will turn back to reign as the milder air moves in. Through the afternoon, temperatures reaching 10 11dc. But it stays cold in the far north of scotla nd it stays cold in the far north of scotland and england where there will be wintry showers. Beyond that through friday into the weekend, we continue our brisk northwesterly flow of winds. The air will always be at its coolest across the north of the uk with temperatures below average here. But quite close to normalfor england average here. But quite close to normal for england and wales. What unifies is that it stays unsettled, meaning for most of us a continuing of the unsettled, but for most of us sunshine and showers. Thats your latest weather. This is bbc news, i am rebecca jones. In a crucial day of campaigning, Boris Johnson warns voters of a Hung Parliament if they dont support the conservatives. We can do it, you can do it, you can do it with your votes, with your support, we can end the gridlock thatis support, we can end the gridlock that is holding our country back. We can move forward together. Well, Jeremy Corbyn promised a relentless focus on the nhs if the labour party wins power. I do not blame the nurses, i do not blame the doctors, ido nurses, i do not blame the doctors, i do not blame the health service, i blame the government that has underfunded our nhs.
