These are still very important issues. And i think they need to be aired in this campaign. So, yes, i need to be aired in this campaign. So, yes, lam continuing need to be aired in this campaign. So, yes, i am continuing on. And so, yes, i am continuing on. And takin so, yes, i am continuing on. And taking that so, yes, i am continuing on. And taking that as so, yes, i am continuing on. And taking that as an so, yes, i am continuing on. And taking that as an exclusive that you are staying in the race. You are very much right, it is the policies and the issues which the american electorate want to because i think right now out there, theres probably about 100 Million People who feel politically homeless. Yeah. Who feel politically homeless. Yeah, thats right who feel politically homeless. Yeah, thats right. And who feel politically homeless. Yeah, thats right. And im who feel politically homeless. Yeah, thats right. And im also who feel politically homeless. Yeah, thats right. And im also going who feel politically homeless. Yeah, thats right. And im also going to i thats right. And im also going to take the advantage on your show to announce something new as well, so in addition to running for president and trying to get these issues both on the National Radar part of the Democratic National platform, im also going to be launching a new organisation in the next few weeks called together with an Exclamation Point thats whole goal is to get more young people engaged in democracy, registered to vote, actually engaging with Mission Driven causes, and people from both the right and the left and the centre, that we are going to colour the organisation has purple because we really want to let everyone know that everyone is invited to this organisation. We are going to take our politics back, basically. Its not going to be for the crazies on either side of the spectrum. Its going to be for the 80 of us in the middle who wants Common Sense Solutions and who want Good Government where we Work Together. Stay there, because i would like to bring our panel and on that. I know that as a direction that both miles and stephanie work in this direction with young voters. Do you hear that and take a view that that is what the country needs more of this maxim in engaging young voters . I the country needs more of this maxim in engaging young voters . In engaging young voters . I think ou hear in engaging young voters . I think you hearthat in engaging young voters . I think you hear that. You in engaging young voters . I think you hear that.

I think organisation prepared to do this. I think we organisation prepared to do this. I think we will all be frustrated that you tooh think we will all be frustrated that you took the name together because its a great you took the name together because its a great approach to this, but i think its a great approach to this, but i think its its a great approach to this, but i think its happening to the universal frustration you are feeling universal frustration you are feeling across the american electorate, and interestingly, as polarised electorate, and interestingly, as polarised as americans are right now, polarised as americans are right now. When polarised as americans are right now, when you dig into the crosstabs, they actually really want the catharsis of working in a bipartisan manner. So on the surface, bipartisan manner. So on the surface, we are barely a divided country. Surface, we are barely a divided country, but when there are opportunities to cross the aisle, people opportunities to cross the aisle, people report their delight and excitement to get to Work Together again excitement to get to Work Together again so excitement to get to Work Together again.

There you go, in the togetheri there you go, in the together spirit, there is to people you can hook up with in your new movement to engage young voters. Im going to ask you a little bit about american simo i because there might be people watching. It is a really interesting thing, because there is only a very small electrics, of course, and they dont get to vote in a general election, they only get to vote in this primary and they have put their faith in you. So what responsibility do you take for that . I faith in you. So what responsibility do you take for that . Faith in you. So what responsibility do you take for that . I think i have a hue do you take for that . I think i have a huge responsibility, do you take for that . I think i have a huge responsibility, and do you take for that . I think i have a huge responsibility, and i am a huge responsibility, and i am honoured that they have given me that responsibility. When we looked at all 15 Super Tuesday states, we also focused on colorado, vermont, minnesota, we did not do as well in those states, and part of why we chose American Samoa as a place to focus and noticed that pronunciation, everybody pronounces that a little bit wrong. The locals prefer neck exactly. You know, this campaign was focused on civility, bringing the country back together, inclusion and our team unanimously said that if we are all about inclusion, we need to focus on the people of American Samoa who probably, their voices are not elevated enough, people dont understand that they are not even american citizens, they are american nationals. You have to fly off the island, a very expensive proposition, to go to hawaii in order to get your citizenship. If i become president , one of the first things i will do is actually put in office right the island so it will be easy for people to get their citizenship. They only have one hospital for citizenship. They only have One Hospitalfor 50,000 people, and i listen to a number of people talk to me about how they wanted to get into health care but they dont even have the ability to get a masters graduate degrees on the island because their college is only a community college. It on the awards associate degrees. So there is an Education Infrastructure Upgrade that they need, a Health Care System upgrade that they need. And even basic citizenship. Their votes need to account and they need to be able to account and they need to be able to become citizens more easily. It to become citizens more easily. It is an important message, the biggest economy in the world to me you would think that they can at least put a Passport Office on the island. In terms of your campaign, what happens after Something Like that last night . Which must have been seen in the white house, did you get a call from anyone in the Democratic Party . Did you get a call from any donors . You know, i have gotten a call from a number of donors, and then also a number of my own supporters, my phone completely blew up. I didnt realise that the caucus was going to end so early. They are six hours behind us and they actually ended at 3 30pm eastern, which is much earlier than i expected. 8 30pm their time, earlier than i expected. 8 30pm theirtime, 9 30pm earlier than i expected. 8 30pm their time, 9 30pm eastern. Earlier than i expected. 8 30pm theirtime, 9 30pm eastern. And earlier than i expected. 8 30pm their time, 9 30pm eastern. And at this point i am really committed to the campaign. Making sure that the issues got elevated and on the table. Were still going to go ahead and lunch together sooner rather than later, together is also going to support 20 candidates who are running for congress this fall who also commit to being part of the problem solvers caucus, that they commit to bringing the country together, working across party lines. I think it will be quite easy to convince 20 folks who are running for congress that will help them with funding their campaign and marketing them if they choose to be part of this new common sense centre coalition. Im really looking forward to continuing to advance the issues, the first time we talked, and realistic that im a long shot, joe biden is an incumbent president. Is that 99 of the delegates right now, but we need to energise young people and centreleft, centre right people and centreleft, centre right people if we are going to win in november and that is what i am going to do to stop by to remember the pact that we need, if you at. You remember if pact that we need, if you at. You remember remember if you went off as i get the first interview. Remember if you went off as i get the first interview.

Well, it. Depends on how the fundraising take on more people . Well, it depends on how the fundraising goes. So i do want to do a shout out to people, go to palmerfor president doctor us. We have a link you can click on and donate. We love the donations we get from people who want a more inclusive and more Work Together oriented approach. But they dont actually have Campaign Funds to hire a lot more people. I want to tell you that the amount of marketing and spend a debt on American Samoa was only 5,000. I probably spent about the same as the Biden Campaign get there. If i had millions to compete against them on a fair Playing Field in colorado, in utah, texas, california, other states, its possible i wouldve won in those states too. But ijust dont have those kinds of funds. Im met greylock abstract campaign. You tell the and you will get airtime on the context, i guarantee you the money will start to flow in. Lovely to see you again. Many congratulations on your win last night and we wish you the best of luck with your together campaign. Thank you for coming on. Luck with your together campaign. Thank you for coming on. Thank you so much for thank you for coming on. Thank you so much for having thank you for coming on. Thank you so much for having me.

Im alex james, the frontman of the uks first Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy fronted rock band, and Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a rare, life limiting, muscle wasting condition. And in terms of being a frontman and having this disability, how does that make your experience of Playing Music different from every other frontman . Id say a lot of factors come into this cos obviously access is one of the main things. I have to contact venues directly, so when we do our headline gig at the independent in sunderland, for example, were going to have to use an eight foot ramp to get up on the stage. Youre looking forward to it . Very much, yeah. Music. There isnt many electric Wheelchair Frontmen like me. For more stories from across the uk, head to the bbc news website. Welcome back. Joe biden spent the past weekend at camp david huddled with his closest advisers as they made the finishing touched to his State Of The Union speech he will deliver to one of his biggest audiences tomorrow night. And the pressure is on. Not only will they be focused on what he has to say, butjust as importantly how he performs. The New York Times reports that he travelled to camp david with william ury� s book possible how we survive and thrive in an age of conflict. They have been working on this speech since december. White house officials make no mention of where the speech will go, but it is almost certain he will talk about the war between israel and hamas and the war in ukraine. Interesting to note that the first lady of ukraine has turned down an invitation. Because she doesnt want to sit next to alexei navalny� s widow. So it wouldnt be the damn thing to be seen as sitting with him. What does he need to do tomorrow night, the president . I he need to do tomorrow night, the resident . ~ �. He need to do tomorrow night, the resident . ~ � ,. , president . I think its a great oint president . I think its a great point that president . I think its a great point that he president . I think its a great point that he has president . I think its a great point that he has two president . I think its a great point that he has two main i point that he has two main objectives, one is he has to lay out what his vision is moving forward with the second term, and second he has to perform well. He has to speak well, he has to act well, he has to look well. With all the talk around his age, he has to show that he is ready, willing and able to take on a second term. While doing so, also talk about the achievements of his administration thus far, and again, what is it that he is going to lay out in his second term to help Progress Things forward . I know that he has been training for a long time getting ready for this for a long time, and from what i hear, a lot of it has been in his Speech Dialect and preparing to deliver the best speech possible. I and preparing to deliver the best speech possible. And preparing to deliver the best speech possible. I think its one of the biggest speech possible. I think its one of the biggest nights speech possible. I think its one of the biggest nights of speech possible. I think its one of the biggest nights of the speech possible. I think its one of. The biggest nights of the campaign, dont you . Because if he fluffs this, if something goes wrong, then the preconceptions that are out there, they settle in, and its very difficult to shift, it becomes more thanjust a one policy difficult to shift, it becomes more than just a one policy issue. Super tuesday is than just a one policy issue. Super tuesday is not than just a one policy issue. Super tuesday is not what than just a one policy issue. Super tuesday is not what kicked than just a one policy issue. Super tuesday is not what kicked off than just a one policy issue. Super tuesday is not what kicked off this president ial campaign. It will be the state president ial campaign. It will be the State Of The Union speech. That is going the State Of The Union speech. That is going to the State Of The Union speech. That is going to be the moment where most voters is going to be the moment where most voters are is going to be the moment where most voters are going to have it crystallised in their mind that it is once crystallised in their mind that it is once againjoe Biden Versus Donald is once againjoe Biden Versus Donald trump and they are going to be taking donald trump and they are going to be taking stock of the president , and i be taking stock of the president , and i think be taking stock of the president , and i think stephanie said it really well. And i think stephanie said it really well, thats key where there is bigger~ well, thats key where there is bigger. Joe biden showing vigour in this speech is going to be what his supporters this speech is going to be what his supporters need to go to defend him, and also supporters need to go to defend him, and also if supporters need to go to defend him, and also if he shows that, its going and also if he shows that, its going to and also if he shows that, its going to take the criticism out of the mouths of his opponents, because they are the mouths of his opponents, because they are going to watch that whole speech they are going to watch that whole speech to they are going to watch that whole speech to try to clip any little piece speech to try to clip any little piece rate joe bidens age might show piece rate joe bidens age might show. They are seen that that is a resident show. They are seen that that is a Resident Attack Line in polls and they are Resident Attack Line in polls and they are going to trapeze that speech they are going to trapeze that speech to go against them. You can bet that speech to go against them. You can bet that the speech to go against them. You can bet that the president is practising for this bet that the president is practising for this speech, even president s like donald trump, i saw a practice of the like donald trump, i saw a practice of the union like donald trump, i saw a practice of the union. Sometimes folks like that say of the union. Sometimes folks like that say it of the union. Sometimes folks like that say it doesnt matter and they are not that say it doesnt matter and they are not nervous, but i watched trump do it in are not nervous, but i watched trump do it in the are not nervous, but i watched trump do it in the white house map room. They know do it in the white house map room. They know that state of the Union Addresses they know that state of the Union Addresses are primetime speeches. So biden is addresses are primetime speeches. So biden is certainly preparing, knowing biden is certainly preparing, knowing that it is more thanjust the state knowing that it is more thanjust the state of the Union Address, it might the state of the Union Address, it might be the state of the Union Address, it might be the fate of his entire presidency. | might be the fate of his entire presidency might be the fate of his entire residen. ~ ,. ,. , presidency.

Ijust wonder if he needs a| that. Ijust wonder if he needs a moment tomorrow night, much like he got last year when he did the State Of The Union. Let me play this to you, maybe we will have a listen to it because its got quite punchy at one point. Marjorie taylor green was shouting at him from the back of the hall. If hes going to get aggressive in this campaign and take on trump as he says he is, maybe he needs a bit of this. Have a look at this. Should know what those plans are, instead of making the wealthy pay theirfair share, some republicans, some republicans want medicare and Social Security sunset. Im not saying its a majority of you. Shouting. Let me give you, anybody who doubts it, contact my office. Ill give you a copy. Ill give you a copy of the proposal. That Means Congress doesnt vote. Im glad you see. I tell you, i enjoy conversion. There is a glint in his eye there, he has been around the block, he knows how to spar, and that is actually when he is at his best. That same New York Times reference says that at the end of the day, they want to Letjoe Biden Bejoe biden. That is you joe biden is. He is, he is a spun he guy from male towns in pennsylvania. He is not going to take any clap, no matter how old people think he is, and he has to show that kind of energy and that type of pushback. We are guaranteed to see if there be heckling from members of congress on the republican side, which i cant believe we are here at this country where that happens in those hallowed halls, but we are guaranteed to see it, and he needs to make sure that he can be both clicked on the comebacks but also stay true to what it is that he needs to deliver, the message that he needs to deliver. Not only does he need those key points, he needs to be very clear and direct about what it is that hes going to do to continue to move this country forward. This country forward. Youve got to sta out this country forward. Youve got to stay out of this country forward. Youve got to stay out of the this country forward. Youve got to stay out of the way, this country forward.

Its the first fatalities wed had from missiles fired by the who with ease. We could be in a situation and by Tomorrow Night Rag and america have bombed houthi positions in yemen.

We expect the dalai lama remains neutral. India have already won the series whatever happens. Englands captain has his perspective on that. I think thats not. I look at it differently with completely different angles. I think weve definitely progressed as a team. Albeit weve not got the results we wanted. But, you know, 3 2 sounds better than 3 1 or 4 1. And we look to win every game we go out there and play. Its not worked out that way in terms of results, but weve got one last push here.

And thats all the sport for now. Hello there. Wednesday started off with quite extensive mist and fog, some of which was dense. This Weather Watcher picture shows the low cloud and fog trapped underneath what we call a Temperature Inversion with clear blue, sunny skies above. But on the whole, west was best for sunshine. Turned out to be a lovely day here in the isle of arran. Now, during this evening and overnight, we are, i think, going to see fog patches reform. Some of that will become dense, visibility down to 100 metres, so it might be worth allowing a little bit of extra time for any Morning Travel you might have into thursday morning. Therell be a few patches of rural frost around as well, so mist and fog to start the day, that should tend to lift and clear. Then were looking at a lot of dry weather. 0k, there could be one or two showers for england and wales, but hardly any of these. So, the vast majority of us having a dry day with the best of the sunshine, likely once again across Western Areas of the uk. Temperatures by and large close to average for the time of year, but a little below average for East Scotland and northeast england given the onshore winds coming across the chilly north sea. The High Pressure to our northeast, low pressure to our southwest got a bit closer on friday, and so its going to get a little bit windier. Now, on the whole, its going to be a quieter day, less mist and fog to start off the day. With the winds coming in from an easterly direction, the uks only named wind, the helm wind will be blowing across great cross fell into cumbria and over into the west of high ground, it will be quite a gusty day with gusts reaching into the 40s, maybe low 50s of miles an hour. Itll continue to be quite chilly for East Scotland and northeast england. On into the weekend, the low pressure to our south starts to throw bands of Rain Northwards across the uk, so there will be rain at times wont be raining all weekend, butjust rain at times. Saturday sees the first Band Of Rain Then Push across england and wales reach northern ireland. Late in the day, Eastern Scotland will have frequent showers so be quite a wet day for the eastern mountains and the grampians. Probably the best of the dry and bright weather will be across Western Scotland where we should stay with some sunny spells. Temperatures for many of us, quite close to average. Sunday sees some further outbreaks of rain moving generally northwards and westwards across the uk, perhaps something a bit drier and brighter at times working in towards the south and east and temperatures still by and large close to average, but a bit below for East Scotland and northeast england.
