Piano Perry Manolo's piano Martin 1st guitar Eric Clapton although he plays a variety of guitars but when I think of off we think it would enhance that it's always the same guitar isn't it so I wonder I wonder if that could ever be figured out or ensure it is performed. What about. Bob Dylan's harmonica one of those and what would be the most valuable How do you put a price on something like that you know so in this bin if somebody the whole career performed around the whole planet would it ever be so would it be played by anybody else probably no but let's have a little look damn Some of the requests that come in thank you just say hello to a few people country music try see what you.

News at 3 I'm more oldest than the shadow chancellor John McDonald says Labor won't change income tax for those who are less than $80000.00 pounds a year but he says the top 5 percent of earners will pay more to fund public services if Labor wins the election the director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies Paul Johnson has questioned Mr McDonnell's plans he doesn't think there's much scope for raising significant sums from increasing tax just on the highest earners because part of this not entirely honest conversation that politicians want to have with the electorate which is to say someone else will pay for the public service you can't get a lawyer much more by putting a few p. On income tax for the highest earners if you really want to raise significant amounts of money I'm afraid it can't just be of the people who pay out has to be all of us to reason may has announced plans to replace mental health legislation in England and Wales with a new law tackling discrimination and the unnecessary detention of vulnerable people she's also promised to boost the number of mental health professionals in the n.h.s. Paul Farmer from the charity Mind says it's very important that the issue is on the political edge. And many many people are not receiving the kind of help and support is needed so we think that this kind of welcome focus on mental health now needs to go to the next stage so that you know much more more significant resources are imported so that staff can be recruited with confidence that over the next few years this is these changes are really here to stay coastguards in the southwest of Scotland on searching for a speedboat which was reported missing yesterday it's believed 2 people were on board helicopters and life boats searched the water overnight Deborah has been found in the last few hours voters in France are deciding whether their next president should be the pro European centrist Emanuel macron or the anti immigration euro skeptic Marine Le Pen so far the turnout is slightly lower than in the last presidential election 5 years ago French citizens in the u.k.
