Applause there was applause for Greta Thunberg here in the great hall, but quite striking is that a lot of the seats were pretty empty. Not every National Delegation was here to listen to her message. Greta has inspired a movement that is losing patience. Young protesters took over the hall to demand faster action. What matters is whether anybody is listening. David shukman, bbc news, madrid. The naturalist and broadcaster, david bellamy, has died. He was 86. There is nothing like a good drying day to put the spring back into your polyester so the next time you stand amongst your smallest bear in mind the process of evaporation. His enthusiasm for the natural world, in programmes like bellamys backyard safari, made him a regular on tv in the 1980s. A formerfactory worker and a plumber, he was a natural broadcaster, though in later life he attracted criticism for dismissing global warming, describing it as poppycock, a stance which he said, cost him his tv career. His colleagues at the conservation foundation, which he co founded, described him as a larger than life character who inspired a whole generation. Back to the election and all eyes tomorrow will be on those key marginal constituencies that could determine the final result. Places like watford, where in 2017 the conservatives won byjust over 2,000 votes. 0ur deputy political editor, john pienaar, reports from the Battle Ground town. Hello, children. Its time to believe, or try to. How are you . Believing comes easily to some. The rest of us are promised billions for the nhs and schools, thousands more police. Everyone knows what they want. I want to see more police on the streets and more money put into the National Health service. So more for everyone . More for everybody, yes. But who to believe . The marginal seat of watford stayed tory through years of austerity. Now the parties are poles apart. Many say they havent decided or wont vote. Most will. Im voting conservative. Why . We have to look after our National Health service. Its so precious. Labour say theyll put money in. But they all say these things, dont they . You just have to go with what you believe. Im voting labour because ijust want the tories out, really. I think theyre running Public Services into the ground, and ijust dont agree with anything they do or say. But if this elections about giveaways and retail offers, the battles over which partys offer looks most tempting, whos most trusted. The voters choice will reshape britain, and maybe the biggest reason for that is the b word. Tired. Who isnt this week, or worse . Knackered. This election has felt tough on everyone, and brexit outweighs almost every other issue. For me, its brexit, mainly because we can stand on our own two feet. Were more than capable of standing on our own two feet. We dont need people in brussels to tell us what we can and cant do, making laws that we have to adhere to. Leave, remain, why . Remain, the reasons being that it would be more beneficial for our country in terms ofjobs, the way people feel, obviously the unity between everybody as well. As for who to follow, some whove covered miles campaigning for labour dont likejeremy corbyn. Many are asking themselves, is Boris Johnson truly fit to bear the burden of office . Have yourself a merry little christmas. Tis the season of goodwill, but polling day comes first. Tough for this young music schoolteacher. Its my first time voting, so i will definitely be voting and ill be giving my opinion, but im not sure which way im going to vote or who im going to vote for as i do think there are quite a few empty promises. So have yourself. Soon well be celebrating. Christmas, not the election, most of us, even with the best will in the world. Now. John pienaar, bbc news, watford. Thats it. But before joining our news teams where you are here are some of the sights and sounds of the election campaign, as the uk goes to the polls. Have a very good night. I cant wait to get out there. Stop brexit. Oven ready. It will be very different. Why dont you look at it now, Prime Minister . So, no apology . The Prime Minister wouldnt show up. Get rid of the roadblock the worst Christmas Present ever. Build a Better Future for scotland. Hello and welcome to sportsday.
