Attack, have been remembered in Church Services across the city today and on the streets, as thousands of people took part in the great manchester run. Amid tight security, the organisers say they were determined it should go ahead, to show the true spirit of the city that terrorism will never win. Our correspondent Chris Buckler reports from manchester. In the centre of manchester, people ran in remembrance and in defiance. Holding this racejust holding this race just days after a Suicide Bomb Attack was, in itself, sending a message. It has been an exceptionally difficult week for everybody but Greater Manchester is saying we will get through it and go forward together. This Simple Act Of Gathering together after a bombing that left so many families grieving expressed a sentiment that only a few could find the words for. Do something through courage and through pain. Do something for someone that you care for. Do something to help out with the cost. Do something for someone that youre there for. That youve lost. Yet this attempt to return to normality exposed what has become at least for the moment the new normal. Armed officers and extra security are now an obvious presence, here to offer reassurance, but theyre also a reminder of what happened in manchester less than a week ago. Yes, i was a bit nervous, im here with my husband. If anything else could have happened, you know. Ive got children at home, so i did think twice, im not going to lie but im here. Bell tolls people paid their respects all along the race route. And at services nearby in manchester cathedral. Today we remember megan hurley, elaine mciver, courtney boyle, philip tron. There, the names of each one of the 22 People Killed on monday were read out. Chloe rutherford, liam curry. The family and friends of one of them, martyn hett, celebrated his life this evening in stockport. Like so many others, they are trying to move on into remembering, not forgetting. That leaves manchester still in need of both support and reassurance. Chris buckler, bbc news, manchester. As we heard in Chris Bucklers report, vigils and services of remembrance have been taking place today in memory of people who lost their lives in the attack in manchester. One of those victims, martyn hett, was remembered at an event in stockport. In the wake of martyns death, his mother had said she didnt feel anger and only had fond memories of her son. After the event held in his honour today, our reporterjames bryant spoke to his mother and stepfather, who shared their reflections on todays events. I dont think there was too much crying. I think he would have just wanted people saying nice things about him, and that he would have loved it, he would have loved any glitter, the mayor in her regalia. He just loved the occasion and the event. The music, the singing, the sentiment. Yes, the glitter on the face, the speeches. The dancing, the choir. What was the highlight for you . The highlight for me was actually the most touching, the young people who have raised £500 off their own back. It shows the Community Spirit out there and that there are some amazing people. Its not the big things you can do, its just the small sentiments. That is touching, that they would want to raise money for martyns funeral. Thats just something thats never talked about enough. And for you . For me, all his friends coming together and, you know, they were all very tearful. And yet said the most beautiful things about him. I know ive kind of lost a son to this horrible event, but they were his friends before and ive gained more sons now. Police investigating the Manchester Arena attack, carried out by salman abedi, have made a further series of raids and arrests around the city. Two more people are now in Custody Meaning that a total of 13 are being held for questioning. Our Home Affairs Correspondent tom symonds reports. This Massive Police operation continued at a frantic pace today. 1000 officers and police staff were involved. The arrests continued. A man pulled from his car in the middle of the street in trafford. A raid on a house in the moss side area. Heavily armed Police Arrested three men, at one point bringing in a police dog. Roads were closed. The dorr of one of them being blown from the hinges with explosives. The family insisted we had nothing to do with the bombing. In this area in particular, the Police Operation is causing enormous unrest. We dont want anything like this in our community, it is so ridiculous. Iam annoyed. It is not a nice feeling at all. People here worry there will be a backlash. In fact, this operation has touched many communities in the city. The explosions and guns are unnerving but life does go on. 12 remain in custody and more arrests are expected. Both the conservatives and labour, have been focusing on National Security today in the election campaign. The home secretary amber rudd, reaffirmed that the conservatives would set up a commission, to promote British Values and tackle extremism, while labour wants to recruit 1,000 security experts, in addition to 10,000 extra police. Heres our Political Correspondent alex forsyth. In the aftermath of such an atrocity, inevitable questions about how to stop Something Like this happening again. The actions of this man, salman abedi, forced a pause in the election campaign. Now preventing others like him is part of the debate. The home secretary said today the government had for the first time used powers to prevent suspected terrorists returning freely to the uk. 0n the manchester attack, she said police and Security Services were working at full tilt. With questions about who knew what and when, she was asked about reports that friends and Community Leaders had raised concerns about the man behind it. Was salman abedi on a Surveillance List . I dont know those details that you have set out to me because the Intelligence Services are still collecting information about him and the people around him. But i wouldnt rush to conclusions, as you seem to be, that they somehow have missed something. People had phoned the terror hotline, as they are told to do. As they should do. And the reason we have put in place the terror hotline, the reason we have put in place the prevent strategy is because we recognise the scale of the problem. So what would different parties do to tackle the problem . Well, the conservatives would introduce a counter extremism commission. So far short on detail, it would advise new laws and policies. They say they have committed extra funding for Counterterrorism Agencies and are recruiting more security officers. Labour, too, has promised more security and intelligence staff and 10,000 more Police Officers as well as more prison and Border Agency personnel. In the battle for power here, labour are attacking the conservatives over cuts, saying they have left police under resourced. The tories are defending their record on crime. But like so much in this election, want to make this about character and leadership. The Shadow Home Secretary was asked again today about past comments she had made, seemingly supportive of the ira. It was 3a years ago, i had a rather splendid afro at the time. I dont have the same hairstyle and i dont have the same views. Labour says the focus now should be how to keep people safe from this, an attack which, rather than undermine the democratic system, has highlighted the choice the country is facing. Who is best to lead, who is best to protect . Alex forsyth, bbc news, westminster. Thousands of British Airways passengers have faced a second day of disruption following a global it failure. Flights from gatwick are getting back to normal, but a third of ba services from heathrow were cancelled. Thats because of the knock on effects around the world of yesterdays disruption. Ba passengers in rome have been told they wont be able to fly back to the uk until tuesday. Joe lynam is at heathrow for us tonight. It has been a day of queues, calculations and questionable customer care. Hundreds are still trying to catch their delayed flight, trying to catch their delayed flight, thousands have out their holidays curtailed or ruined. The airline says that things are getting back to normal. For many people, today did not feel like normal. For some ba customers, it had been a long, uncomfortable night. Bleary passengers this morning, still hoping to catch their plane. Even free bottles of water in a heavily congested at terminal 5 failed to cool some peoples mood. Its just a lot of moving around, standing in lines and lack of information. I think its too big that they dont know what to do with it. Weve been in the line for about five hours, we have no idea how much longer well be here and were getting no communication from the staff. Sarah booth and herfamily should be on holiday in budapest. Instead she is stuck having lunch at a pub near heathrow. She was told by ba to come to the airport, only to find the flight was cancelled. We only travelled based on the fact our fight was still running and we had been told by ba to make sure all flights were running, before we left home and we did that. Youve come from . Malvern in worcestershire and my sister and herfamily have come from folkestone in kent. Ba passengers in rome have been told it might be tuesday before they get home. Some travelled here by train from naples, after spending hours on a plane there yesterday that never took off. Weve been booked on a flight from here to barcelona, and barcelona to london, but Our Barcelona Fight has been delayed an hour and so we have 30 minutes to get the connecting flight in the hope we get back to london tonight. 0therwise weve got to wait two days. As thousands of people waited in a packed heathrow, dozens of flights were cancelled and many more will not depart as the airline struggled to reset its Global Network after a major powerfailure. That, for some aviation insiders, is inexcusable. What seems remarkable is that there was no back up System Kicking in within minutes of the whole system failing. There wasnt even a third back up. Businesses of this size need systems backed up all the time. Thats what passengers expect and rely on. But confusion still abounds. Some passengers have been told their flight is cancelled online and then get the exact opposite message when they call the airline to confirm. This problem looks set to persist for far more than just a few hours. We have asked for interviews to clarify what has gone on and they have not put anybody up. The Chief Executive did post a Video Message today and yesterday in which he apologised to customers once again for the chaos and said his team were pulling out all the stops to get things back to normal. He urged passengers not to come to the airport unless they have a confirmed booking for their flight. Not to come to the airport any earlier than 90 minutes before take off time, and to always check the manage my booking part of the website. But this is going to have a major. This is going to have an issue for British Airways going forwards. Not just the financial cost of compensation, but the damage to their reputation. We saw people saying they were never going to fly ba again. They have to work hard to put this back onto an even keel, going forward. A mans been shot dead in a Supermarket Car Park in county down.

Thats despite only selling around 6,000 tickets for the match, with many of their fans deciding to stay away in protest at the running of the club.

No damage to ships has been reported. The number of people known to have died in severe flooding in sri lanka has risen, to just over 150. Its now thought that nearly 500,000 people have been forced out of their homes, in the worst flooding for well over a decade. But now forecasters are predicting more rain. The worst floods in years have turned streets to rivers near kalutara in western sri lanka. There are warnings dengue fever may break out, created by mosquitoes breeding in the stagnant waters. But more deadly, up to now, the mudslides the rain has triggered, like this one. They have sent mud and boulders careering into peoples homes, devastating families. Large tracts of land are flooded. Here, the airforce is dropping and delivering Relief Supplies to stranded people. Some of the most vulnerable have been airlifted. For others, Improvised Displacement camps have sprung up.

In the silent backwaters, most homes have been evacuated. Rescue workers find some people still inside and bring them to safety. A second naval vessel from neighbouring india has now put in, carrying Relief Material including rescue boats and medicines. The red cross and un agencies are also involved. The Authorities Say aid is now reaching the remotest places. But it will be a long, long time until these deep waters recede. The labour Leaderjeremy Corbyn has refused any possibility of an alliance with the Scottish National party if theres a Hung Parliament on june 8th. The leader of the snp Nicola Sturgeon had said in an interview today that she would consider what she called a Progressive Alliance with mr corbyn, despite having reservations about his leadership and policies. Hes been campaigning in glasgow tonight, from where our scotland editor sarah smith reports. Jeremy corbyn is clearly enthused by polls that suggest increasing support for labour. As he promises higher Public Spending, he says the tories are trying to hide cuts in a dishonest manifesto. That means there is a risk to the quality of public services. Not my words thats a damning verdict of the institute for fiscal studies. But the iff have also taken aim at labours manifesto. You know the institute of fiscal studies has said your tax plans will not raise as much money as you thinkthey might. If that was the case, would you choose to raise taxes or cut Public Spending . What they have said is there is a gap between what we have said we would raise and what they believe could be raised from existing taxes. What they have not taken into consideration is the effectiveness of transaction taxes, which we want to bring in, and offshore Property Taxes that we want to bring in. We believe they will raise money necessary. The city of glasgow always used to be known as an absolutely rock solid labour heartland. Whats happened to the party here is a good illustration of what has happened across scotland. Until recently, every glasgow mp was labour. In the 2015 election they lost every seat in the city to the snp. Now, not even their most optimistic campaigners believe they are likely to win any of them back in this election. Labour are fighting to keep the single mp they have in scotland, and maybe add a couple more to keep him company. At a vintage fair in the east end of glasgow, i spoke to voters who switched between labour and the snp in the past. I really like corbyns manifesto, his attitude and his beliefs and what he stands for. Could labour tempt you back . Not with jeremy corbyn. The more i listen tojeremy corbyn, the more i believe he speaks from the heart. Would you vote for him . Now, im seriously thinking about voting for him, yes. Tonight, the snp leader said she would consider a coalition with labour. If there was a Hung Parliament, of course we would look to be part of a Progressive Alliance that pursued progressive policies. But lets get back to the reality of this election. The reality of this election, even with narrowing polls, is we will face a tory government perhaps with a bigger majority so my priority is to say to people in scotland, if you want scotlands interests protected and our voice heard, you must vote snp. Jeremy corbyn says no coalitions and no pacts with anyone. He insists he believes he can win this election outright. Sarah smith, bbc news, glasgow.

In northern parts of france we are beginning to see signs of wanting to import that across the british isles, whether cloud was thick enough for there to be bits and pieces of rain.

Once you have got it, you are likely to keep it across the southern parts of scotland, northern ireland, for a good part of the morning and for part of the afternoon at least.

The odd bit of rain to wales, maybe into south eastern england. You will notice it is really close and humid. Not the sort of day to be really exerting yourself. Into the afternoon, it may well be that we either import some more thunderstorms from france or may have some home grown ones. If some brightness comes through, and it will generally be a lot of cloud, there could be some thunderstorms on there could be some thunderstorms on the eastern side of wales, the west midlands, down into central and southern england.
