And the diamond that turned out to bea and the diamond that turned out to be a cut above the rest, bought the £10 ina be a cut above the rest, bought the £10 in a car boot sale it will go under the hammer the £350,000. Its five oclock. Our main story the conservatives have performed a rapid climb down over their central manifesto pledge on social care. Theresa may, in a Campaign Speech in wrexham, said their plans include a consultation on a cap or in her words an absolute limit on the money people will need to pay. Its unclear what that cap will be. The conservatives had proposed that those needing care would have to meet the costs by forfeiting all but the last 100,000 pounds of their assets , including the value of their property. Our Political Correspondent chris mason reports. Huge bills and a big question. Who should pick up the tab, and when, for our care in old age . Last thursday, the conservatives suggested a Major Overhaul of the Social Care System in england. Opposition parties and others piled in to criticise a plan that did not include a limit on how much it could cost families. But now, just four days on, a change. We are proposing the right funding model for social care. We will make sure nobody has to sell theirfamily home to pay for care. We will make sure there is an absolute limit on what people need to pay. And you will never have to go below £100,000 of your savings, so you will always have something to pass on to yourfamily. And that is quite a change, because currently in england you pay for care if you have assets worth more than £23,250. Under the new plan, as the Prime Minister said, that will go up to £100,000, so nobody with assets less than that will have to pay. The new calculation will include the value of your house even if you are cared for at home. But now a significant shift from what is in here, the Conservative Manifesto. There will be an upper limit on the bills families can face. But, and this is a huge but, theresa may will not say what that upper limit will be. Has she done another u turn, jeremy . Apparently, yes, apparently. Blimey, you cant trust this woman campaigning in whole, the labour Leaderjeremy Corbyn said they havent said what the cap is. They havent explained to the millions of people who are desperately worried at the moment about what kind of care they going to get in the future, desperately worried for children as well about how their parents are going to be looked after stop this is a government in chaos and confusion. And, from the Liberal Democrats well, this is theresa mays manifesto meltdown, the moment she stood up and spoke at length and said nothing. Nine out of ten homes will be cashed in potentially to pay for people with Notjust A Mention but also other conditions. This is what happens when you have a government that thinks it is going to win with an enormous majority. And here is an insight into conservative jitters about their social care policy. If you searched online this morning for what critics have called their dementia tax, look what popped up an advert, paid for by the tories, trying to put across their side of the story. Are you embarrassed by this u turn, Prime Minister . The colossal challenge we face as a society, trying to work out how to pay for our old age, has now provoked a big shift in policy, right in the middle of an election campaign. Chris mason, bbc news. Our chief Political Correspondent vicki young is in wrexham for us. Theresa may says nothing has changed, this is not a u turn. But it is clear if you read the ma nifesto it is clear if you read the manifesto there was no mention of a cap in relation to social care. No, thatis cap in relation to social care. No, that is right, she said look at page 65. If we do that, there is no mention of it. I think the difficulty for her and for the party is that there are other details in there, they talk specifically about there, they talk specifically about the £100,000 that people would be able to keep that they spend up to a certain amount but they can keep that money to pass their children. If you are having that amount of detail why would you not mention the idea of the cap, which is absolutely fundamental to the policy . Use other reaction and because we are in the middle of an Action Campaign you get immediate feedback because there are conservative candidates in every constituency going out there, talking to people about the policy and some of them were saying it was not going down very well, people we re very not going down very well, people were very concerned about exactly how much they might have to fork out. That has been a problem for theresa may. She would say cheers tackling an issue that needs to be dealt with. There will be millions more people over the age of 75 over the next few years, there is a problem with social care, quality that people get, and in the end someone that people get, and in the end someone has to pay for it. And the conservative idea was to make those who were wealthier, who had assets like a house, to ask them to pay more than doing it through general taxation where poorer workers would have two pay out instead. That was the idea. Now, if there is to be a cap, we dont know where, in the last manifesto it was going to be 72,000, she still has a lot of questions to answer. Thank you. We can speak to the former pensions minister, sir steve webb. He now works as director of policy for royal london insurance and pensions. First, it was recommended that there should be a cap, and it was looked into, David Cameron adopted that in the run up to the 2015 action, but the conservatives left it out last week. They are acknowledging now it seems that was acknowledging now it seems that was a mistake. It does look that way. The idea of what came out last week was that if you have a relatively valuable home, say worth £350,000, you could run that down to £100,000 before the state steps in. So you could be on the hook for two and £50,000 or more. The idea of the cap was proposed was it would be a much lowerfigure. Was proposed was it would be a much lower figure. Last week the conservatives essentially rejected that and said they did not like that approach. This week they seem to be proposing something remarkably similar. So what should the cap be . Theresa may has not said what it will be. The funny thing about the £72,000 number is it is acted quite a high cap, because it only relates to what is called social care, so in a Residential Care home a lot of your bill is bored, lodging and none of that would count towards the cap. So if the conservatives plan something much higher very few people would benefit from it. So what you think it should be . The thinking is what you want to avoid is the people who draw the long straw, the people who live for long periods in Residential Care where the amount can build up considerably, the idea of a good policy would be a bit like insurance, we have Car Insurance so that if one of us has a catastrophe and a write off we all pay a bit and it is smooth. And that was the idea, that we all share it and. But 72,000 is quite a high number. The private companies arent willing to get involved, they are not willing to offer insurance, the kind of policies that might be useful. Doesnt the government need to move in that direction . Trying to make this a viable for the Insurance Industry . That would have been one of the consequences if the deal not cap had been implemented. The Insurance Industry would say that is a product that we can create. But the insurers thought they were not convinced it would happen, and did not want to spend time and money to helping products that would never come into force. The challenge for insurers is that they do not know what they are insuring against because the government are not being clear. But the key to all this working is local authorities being able to recoup payments that have been deferred by individuals once they die. So that those costs for they die. So that those costs for the care they have two provide, particularly in care homes, can be recouped once a house is sold after someone passes on. A recouped once a house is sold after someone passes on. A lot of local authorities, however, arent doing that now and the conservatives want to extend it to those who are having ca re to extend it to those who are having care in their own homes notjust those in care homes. So how will this work if the foundations are already shaky . You are right. The research we paced this morning found some councils got it but had hundreds of these place today but many, particularly in london had done none. And you cant have that, ifa done none. And you cant have that, if a citizen wants to defer their payments it cant be a lottery as to whether their local council will do it or not. If we are going to build on this we need to sort this out first. Thank you very much. Labour says it would bring forward its pledge to scrap tuition fees to include students starting university in england this autumn if it wins the election. The party also says that students who are part way through their courses would not have to pay for the remaining years. The labour Leaderjeremy Corbyn accused the conservatives of having held students back for too long. Since the fees have gone up to £9,000 under the coalition government, the numbers of Working Class Youngsters going to university has declined, the number of University Applications has started to go down. Surely, we should be investing in our future . Somebody who doesnt achieve the profession they want, nursing, teaching, medicine of some other form, engineering, whatever it happens to be, they lose out, but we as a society lose out because weve lost a qualified person who can help improve our industries and improve our services. Our correspondent Victoria Holland is in goole for us whereJeremy Corbyn is campaigning this evening. One suspects a lot of expectation there. That would be over the suggestion that if he wins the election he would bring in the getting rid of tuition fees. Yes, and the crowd here, about 250 to 300 people, many have spoken about how they agree with his policy on education. There are quite a lot of young people here today. Mr corbyn has been campaigning all over the region today. He was in whole earlier where he also promised an extra £1 billion for arts and culture if labour were to win the election in june. He culture if labour were to win the election injune. He has also been to scarborough which is currently a conservative seat, but he attracted quite large crowds there when he gave a speech on education and his promises to scrap tuition fees from next september if labour win. This seat as well is conservative. It is held by the minister for the northern powerhouse, who is involved in bringing investment to this part of the uk. He has quite a co mforta ble of the uk. He has quite a comfortable majority with 11,000. It is interesting that mr corbyn has picked here to hold the rally today. The crowd seemed to agree with him on his ideas about education, there are on his ideas about education, there a re lots of on his ideas about education, there are lots of his supporters here. They also like his idea of investing in the nhs. Later today he will go back to whole. To that is traditionally labour voting city but many who dont align themselves with mr corbyns ideals. We are expecting a bigger crowd in hull this evening. And he is due here this in about ten minutes. The green party has called for bold action on the environment, education, welfare and brexit at the launch of its manifesto. The partys co leader, caroline lucas, said they had very verdeistinct plans for a universal basic income and a shorter working week aiming for a confident and caring nation. This election is about what kind of future we want for our children. It is about protecting our values of openness, of compassion, of cooperation. Its about our promise that a confident and caring future is possible if we work together, if we do politics differently, and if we dare to be more ambitious. Sinn feins leader claims the party is heading for another Ground Breaking election next month. Michelle oneill made the announcement as she unveiled the partys Election Manifesto which proposed a referendum on irish unity within five years, called for A Special Designated Status for Northern Ireland within the eu and proposed the introduction of an Irish Language act. Speaking at the event in dungannon she said the new certainties are gone and a new political era is opening up in irish politics. So this is very much an opportunity to tell both the tories and the dup again, in the strongest possible terms, that we reject brexit, that we would reject any border, that we reject any attempt to put limits on our freedom of movement, we reject barriers to trade and agriculture, and we absolutely reject tory cuts. That we stand for, rights, for equality, and for irish unity. And coming up in the programme atjust after 5. 30 well hear from a panel of three Student Voters about their thoughts on the election and the issues affecting them. And tonight, as part of his ongoing series of interviews with all the main party leaders, andrew neil will be interviewing theresa may thats on bbc one at 7pm. This is Bbc News At 5 the headlines theresa may changes a key policy in her Election Manifesto on social care saying she would consider capping the amount people would have to pay. Jeremy corbyn promises to scrap tuition fees for students starting university in england this autumn. President trump prays at the holiest Site Injudaism on a visit to israel for talks with both israeli and palestinian leaders. And in sport in the last ten minutes or so it has been announced that david moyes has resigned as sunderland manager, the former Manchester United and everton boss took over at the club last summer but they were relegated this season, ending their 10 year stay in the Premier League. Former World Champion nicky hayden has died at the age of 35. He had been in and induced coma in hospital since being hit by a car while cycling in italy last week. Russia has warned its athletes will be excluded from next yea rs athletes will be excluded from next years Winter Olympics athletes will be excluded from next yea rs Winter Olympics unless athletes will be excluded from next years Winter Olympics unless it can improve its Doping Controls. President trump has become the first sitting us president to visit the western wall injerusalem. The president is meeting both israeli and palestinian leaders during his visit and has talked about revising the peace process. Heres our correspondent yolande knell. Direct from riyadh, President Trump took the First Official flight from saudi arabia to arrive in israel. Two countries with no diplomatic relations. He wants to project the idea that hes ready to do things in his own way. With a fanfare, israels leaders turned out to greet their countrys greatest ally. President trump is going to spend just one day here, but hes come in pursuit of what hes called the toughest deal to make between israel and the palestinians. He is hoping that his experience as a businessman could help him succeed where so many others have failed. We have before us a rare opportunity to bring security, stability and peace to this region, and to its people. Defeating terrorism, and creating a future of harmony, prosperity and peace. But we can only get there working together. There is no other way. Mr trump has already disappointed many israelis. He promised to move the us embassy from tel aviv tojerusalem, his next stop. However, all the signs are that wont happen now. With a warning that recognising israeli sovereignty over the city would inflame tensions with the palestinians. But one american israeli close to mr trump remains positive. The relationship with israel has been repaired. Again, eight years of obama, the american israel relationship was described as putting daylight between the United States and israel. There is no daylight any more, we are together as we should be. In ramallah, palestinians want mr trump to show commitment questions remain over what the president will say over settlements like this. They are seen as illegal but there are disagreements. There are those who want the president to show agreements the idea of creating a palestinian state. To move forward in a Two State Solution, it starts with recognising the state of palestine and getting the boot of occupation off of our neck. Thats something the us could pressure israel into doing, if they would be serious about Holding Israel accountable. Another first for a Sitting American President today. Mr trump went to the western wall, the holiest site where jews cambrai. The western wall, the holiest site wherejews cambrai. Can pray. This was private time an important political trip which should give a clearer sense of how this white house believes a future peace deal here could take place. Our chief International Correspondent lyse doucet is injerusalem. The president , he proposed possibly moving the us embassy from tel aviv tojerusalem. He seems to pour cold water on a Two State Solution to the crisis but he seems to have come back from that. Is the reality of complexity of life in The Middle East dawning on him . That is certainly what we are see an. As you mentioned, he was the president who came into office vowing he would be the president that would move that embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem. He would be the man who would be the best friend of israel, and the israelis, certainly the right wing israelis, certainly the right wing israelis started to believe with every month that passes there is a red Mission Sinking in that mr trump is now talking to other people. It was noticeable that after he met the king of georgia he rolled back on his view on settlement building. He said it might not be a good idea to build more. And we understand he will not announce a move of the embassy during this visit. Indeed the white house even asked the israelis to bring in some confidence building measures, in a difficult vote, the raise the cabinets moved to ease some of the restrictions on palestinians moving between the west bank and israel. It is a very different President Trump who has come here, talking about the unsha keable bond between come here, talking about the unshakeable bond between israel and the us. But it does sound as if once he leaves the region he will leave the israelis not particularly satisfied and the palestinians the same. Which sadly has been the case of the last few american president is trying to sort out middle east peace. President trump is talking the talk now. When he was in he even talked about world peace. He talked about the beginning of the end in the battle against extremism and terrorism ideologies and said he would even think about peace between the israelis and the palestinians and why not world peace . He is very confident and it is noticeable how relaxed he seems in israel, not as tired as he was in riyadh. We are hearing more unscripted comments about what his real views on the iran nuclear deal, what he thinks about peacemaking and the visitors only just about peacemaking and the visitors onlyjust begun. About peacemaking and the visitors only just begun. Im about peacemaking and the visitors onlyjust begun. Im sure we will hear more. Thank you very much. Lets have a look at some of the other stories making Bbc News At 5. Rolf harris has appeared for the first time at his trial at Southwark Crown court. The former Television Presenter faces four allegations of Indecent Assault against three Teenage Girls between 1971 and 1983. He denies all the charges. Facebooks internal rules for regulating what its nearly two billion users can and cant post on the site have been leaked.

Michael barrymores lawyer has told the high court he should get substantial damages for being wrongfully arrested in 2007. The entertainer is suing essex police for two and a half million pounds, saying his arrest, in connection with the death of stuart lubbock, destroyed his career. Mr lubbocks body was found floating in michael barrymores Swimming Pool in 2001. A diamond ring bought forjust £10 at a car boot sale 30 years ago is is expected to fetch £350,000 pounds at auction. The owner believed the large White Diamond was a piece of Costume Jewellery when she bought it in the 1980s. She wore the spectacular stone for decades without realising its true value even wearing it while she did household chores. With Me Isjessica Wyndham head of London Jewellery Department at sothebys. And why liz is a pleasure to see you, there is also the stone lets get a close up. There it is. It is gorgeous. And if you pick up the setting it would be in, you can see how large the whole is. That was made specifically for the diamond, the mount would have been created for it, and i think that is part of the reason why the owner never thought it was real, because of the size. It is 26 carats. Many of us would never even dream of owning let alone seeing a stone like this. What alone seeing a stone like this. What a surprise. But how on earth could such a flawless diamond end up in a car boot sale . Such a flawless diamond end up in a carboot sale . Its a good question. We have no answer. The owner clearly did not go out to buy a diamond ring but saw this very attractive looking Cocktail Ring and bought this for £10 and it was only earlier this year that she wanted to see if it had any value at all, because it has a Baseline Value even just for the metal, the gold alone has a value, and it was a total surprise to her when the judas and it was a total surprise to her when thejudas said that looks like a diamond, you should probably get it checked. The jeweller said. We confirmed it was a diamond, we had it tested at. And that dictated the price. We are starting at £250,000. But it could fetch £350,000. Can you pick it up . Yes. If you if i put it in the mount you can see how it would have looked. And if i put it on my hand you will see it even better. It suits you. Thank you. Its very wearable. Apparently in the 19th century the victorians were more interested in size than in the unblemished quality of the stone and Asa Unblemished quality of the stone and as a result that is how it may have been mistaken for Costume Jewellery. Exactly. When you have a Diamond Crystal you want to maintain as much weight as possible. That is still the case today. But in the 19th century they wanted to probably maintain that wait more than reflect clea ra nce maintain that wait more than reflect clearance from the stone which is the main concern today. You want a diamond to exude its natural brilliance which is reflecting light from the back facets. So this has fewer facets than a modern stone which means the light falls out of it and does not reflect back as much. But this would have been seen by candlelight soak the diamond would have had a totally different life and sparkle to it then than the diamonds of today which art for artificial lighting. And the way of cutting brought out the fire of the stone which is the splitting of the light into the spectral colours instead of reflecting white light back into the eye. Absolutely fascinating. And it is sparkling right here under the lights in the studio. It looks amazing. Is it one of the most expensive size stones you have come across . No. Butjust such a wonderful story. We are fortu nate such a wonderful story. We are fortunate that we see people every day and value theirjewellery fortunate that we see people every day and value their jewellery and give them an idea as to whether or not it has value. And some of the stories we come across are fantastic and exciting and we wanted to sell as well as it can for the seller. From £10 to potentially £350,000 thank you very much. Time for a look at the weather with darren bett. With darren bett. Brilliant weather as well, one suspects. That is right. Sparkling day across the bulk of england and wales and we have seen temperatures of 25 degrees in central london. What cloud further north, and still further showers across the north of england. As we head into the evening most of the rain is across scotland, especially in the north, that will work its way towards the Northern Ireland s. The skies were clear for most of us except towards the south west where there will be low cloud. That will head towards the channel islands. Chilly overnight in rural scotland, but sunshine on the way. More cloud than today in mid and south wales. Some of that cloud may affect the midlands. We will see patchy cloud elsewhere but it looks like a good day for most. Temperatures at least into the high teens. Perhaps not quite as warm as it was today. But it will get hotter as the week goes on, with High Pressure around , as the week goes on, with High Pressure around, it will be drier, more sunshine, and temperatures on the rise.

He has said in a statement earlier that he would like to thank ellis short and the board for giving him the opportunity to manage the club, and we can speak with sports news correspondent Richard Conway now, this will be disappointing news for david moyes, after eight arduous few years for him in his career. M has been a very tomato is time for david moyes, after leaving Manchester United, after one season there, he went to Real Sociedad in spain and that did not work out for him sunderland was seen, they started the season as perhaps a good fit for him, a chance to resurrect his career and revive sunderlands fortunes, narrowly avoiding relegation this season before, but we re relegation this season before, but were saved by sam allardyce. He went to england, david moyes came in, the tone from david moyes was quite negative from the start, before the tra nsfer negative from the start, before the Transfer Window had even expired last august he was talking about the relegation fight that sunderland would be in and sure enough, that proved to be the case, sunderland being relegated, the season petering out, and this cloud over david moyes about whether he would continue on with the job has about whether he would continue on with thejob has been about whether he would continue on with the job has been with about whether he would continue on with thejob has been with him about whether he would continue on with the job has been with him for a couple of years.

That will be the aim, whether that is achievable or not, we will see during the summer, who comes in, what purchases are made, sunderland are in a tricky position. It is thought that ellis short is not keen to continue on as the owner of sunderland. They have a significant amount of debt despite the fact they have just walked away with £100 million, over 100 million, in Premier League prize money, from this season. Relegated, parachute payment, but nevertheless, financial situation will be difficult. Now they have two point come in fairly short order, bring somebody in who can identify root and Branch Reform of the squad, prepare them for life in the championship and try to get them back up at the first attempt. Richard conway on the news that david moyes has resigned as sunderland manager. Former motogp World Champion nicky hayden has died. He had been in an induced coma in hospital since being hit by a car while cycling in italy last week. The american won his only Motogp World Title in 2006. He left the sport two years ago to ride in the world superbikes series. Hayden was just 35 years old. Russias paralympic russias pa ralympic team russias Paralympic Team have been given a final warning to improve their Doping Controls or face a given a final warning to improve their Doping Controls orface a ban from the winter games next year. South korea hosts the event next march. The team was banned from the summer games in rio last year, after a state sponsored doping scandal. That ban will continue to pyeongchang, unless the Russian Paralympic Committee pyeongchang, unless the russian pa ralympic committee proves pyeongchang, unless the Russian Paralympic Committee proves it has changed its practices by early september. I think the thing is, we have already stated today that we have not seen sufficient progress for them to be reinstated. The consequence of that, if not reinstated, they will not be in pyeongchang. So timewise it is a very serious moment. Thats all sport for now. You can keep up to date with all those stories on the bbc sport website. More now on the election campaign. Chris morris and the bbcs Reality Check Team have been taking a look at the conservatives social care proposals. You turns climb down, social care was always going to be a big issue, now it is front and centre in a big political row, last week, the Conservative Manifesto said that anybody receiving long term social ca re anybody receiving long term social care in england would be able to keep £100,000 of their assets, including the value of their home. U turns. And nobody would have to sell the family home to pay for care in their lifetime, that has not changed. Last week the conservatives also rolled out introducing any cap, or maximum amount that people would be asked to pay for the social care once the first Hundred Thousand had been taken into consideration. If your house was worth £300,000, you or those who inherited the estate would in theory under those proposals have two contribute £200,000. A major report from social care, written by this man, andrew dilnot, published in 2011, suggests there should be a cap on how much anyone can be asked to pay for care, and in 2015, the Tory Manifesto supported the idea of the cap, which at that point was said to be £72,000. When asked about a proposed cap now, in 2017, here is what the health secretary, jeremy hunt, told the bbc last thursday not only are we dropping it but we are dropping it ahead of the general election and we are being explicit in the manifesto that we are dropping it and we are dropping it because we have looked again at the proposal and we do not think it is fair. Several days of awkward conversations on the doorstep. And four days later, a rather different message from the Prime Minister, today she said we will make sure there will be an absolute limit on what people will need to pay for care. In other words, what people will need to pay for care. In otherwords, there what people will need to pay for care. In other words, there will be a cap, but there is no indication of the level at which it might be set, theoretically, if they went back to theoretically, if they went back to the previous policy of a cap of 72,000, that would mean taking our example of a house worth 300,000, pay a maximum of 72, example of a house worth 300,000, paya maximum of 72, and keep example of a house worth 300,000, pay a maximum of 72, and keep the rest. If the house was worth 150,000, you would pay 50, then the new 100,000 guarantee would kick in and you would keep that. Confused . Does it make sense to have a £100,000 floor, and a cap, in the same policy . The Prime Minister says all of this will be debated in future consultations and nothing has changed. Not so, say the other parties, this is a u turn, there is one thing that has not changed, vote rs one thing that has not changed, voters cannot be sure, still, under these proposals, how much they might have to pay for social care in the future. Another election issue thats key for many, is immigration. Our Home Affairs CorrespondentDominic Casciani looks now at how calls for controls are raising complex questions for business, and which politicians might not be ready to answer. Fast, efficient business is good business. This is the Packing Plant for kingston technology. It makes memory sticks in asia, ships them to the uk and distributes them to europe, africa and The Middle East. It deliberately located here as a gateway to global trade. The companys growth tells the story of economic immigration. Its a story of workers from around the world. My name is. A multilingual sales and support team keep kingston competitive. Staff from 35 countries selling to customers in at least 20 languages. I dont think that immigration means that people like me are taking jobs away from uk people. Myjob requires me to have french as my Mother Tongue and speak several other languages which make it easierfor a person from another country. Kingston says it struggles to find multilingual brits because many emigrate. So is it worried about whats likely to be the end of Free Movement after brexit . Once you have made an Investment Decision like we did 20 years ago and have a committed workforce here, its very difficult to make a decision to move away. However, there are always new businesses being set up and companies who today make that decision might decide to to it in berlin or in france or somewhere else. Net migration has been running around two and a half times the Prime Ministers target. With new figures coming later this week. Labour wont put a figure on its ideal level. Campaigners for controls say its time for change. The high levels of migration frankly are a relatively recent development of a recent phenomenon. Thats something that we can address perfectly well, bring in the skills that we need, bring in the people that we need and indeed bring numbers down to manageable levels. Many experts say that while people have strong views on immigration, theres a lack of debate about the complex choices ahead for the type of nation we want to be. And of course there is the issue of tuition fees. Labour is promising that students who Start University courses in england this autumn wont have to pay tuition fees, if the party wins the election. Most young people have to spend many years with that debt over their head, if you are trying to start a family, get on in life, have a job, and you have £40,000 of debt, whether you pay that or not, that is gut wrenching, that is a lot of debt for a young person to be worried about, on their shoulders. We are saying that by getting the top 5 of earners to pay a little more in tax, what that will do is stop us from putting young people through that hell of having a large amount of debt. I think it is the right thing to do. Now the Electoral Commission says seven Million People havent yet registered to vote in next months general election. Tonight is the deadline for registration, which can be done on the gov. Uk website. In the last general election, in 2015, there was a huge difference in the number of young people voting compared to older voters. According to Research Carried out by Polling Company ipsos mori, just 43 of eligible voters between the age of 18 24 cast their votes. That compares to 78 of those aged 65 and over turned out to vote. Im joined now by three Student Voters, who are passionate about politics cat king is a conservative voter who is a student at cardiff university; jermainjackman is a Labour Party Member and currently a student at the university of leeds; and coming straight from the exam room im joined by matt wilson who is planning on voting lib dem. He looks to study at London South Bank university. A general question, starting with you, what is the most important issue for you, in this election . The most important issue for me personally is electing a party and Prime Minister who can lead the country forward. We have seen many lead the country forward. We have seen many different political changes and it is important to push on, with the context of brexit and all of the different issues, it is now pushing forwards, in a way that is best for the majority. Brexit you might point to as a key issue for you. It was, but now the vote has been accepted, across the board we must move on. Ido i do not want the election to be about brexit. I do not want the election to be about brexit. We i do not want the election to be about brexit. We need to make sure that young people go to the Polling Stations and registered to vote and pensioners are looked after, we need to ensure we have a fully funded nhs, there are so many issues other thanjust brexit. Nhs, there are so many issues other than just brexit. What is the top issue for you Question Mark 100 brexit, you said the vote has been accepted but we do not know the conditions of the deal, we are going to get from brussels. And the empty rhetoric and the absolute threats that are coming from theresa may and the conservative party puts brexit at the heart. We may not get a deal at the end of the day because of the empty rhetoric and the threats that are coming from the conservative party government. That isa conservative party government. That is a key issue, the deal that we are going to get at the end of brexit negotiations. You are passionate about politics, you know the issues, you have all registered to vote, im assuming, all casting a ballot, what do you think about the fact that so many young people have not registered yet and do not even vote . The three of us are very unusual and engaged in politics and we all study at university, in the social field, the normal average teenager does not engage in Party Politics because as matt touched on, it is a lot of empty rhetoric, i know you are thrown back at the conservatives but it can be thrown at any party, a lot of mudslinging, that is what a lot of mudslinging, that is what a lot of young people engage in politics but not Party Politics, they care about tuition fees, whether you are for or against that. But they care about their schools and their families, their community centres, they do care about that, what they do not care about is Mud Being Slung in the house of commons. It disengages people, a lot of people see it as peoplejust disengages people, a lot of people see it as people just arguing. To add onto that, i think young people, especially where i am from, hackney, i see young people are very socially aware, they know what is going on, they see knife crime, they see social injustices, for me it is about connecting little education with social awareness, Young People Wa Nt with social awareness, young people want to being dates but how can they being gauged when you have trebled tuition fees, young people have been a demographic that have been pushed into a corner, ignored and neglected for far too long, it is hard to engage with that part of society when they are being pushed away. There is a sense in recent years, as cat and jermaine have been alluding to, the government policy has focused on older people, frankly older voters, most notably through the triple lock on pensions, increasing student tuition fees, generally, this whole sense of workplace in zero hours contracts, Pension Changes and so on and so forth. The dice has been loaded against young people, do you see anything in the Current Campaign that suggests that might be turning . That politicians are beginning to think about future generations . Not from the conservative party, not from the conservative party, not from theresa may. You are voting liberal democrat . Yes. Theresa mays manifesto launch, the news that came after it, that was solely focused on social care and older person issues. The lib dems is, probably for me, the most, the party that is mostly focused on young people issues. The social liberalism, and. Legalising Cannabis Question not yes, that is socially liberal. An important issue from a lot of young people . Socially liberal. An important issue from a lot of young people . M socially liberal. An important issue from a lot of young people . It is not an important issue necessary but it isa not an important issue necessary but it is a lot of but you have to have a signed based approach to cannabis issues, and medication. Legalising cannabis . The boat has sailed for the Liberal Democrats to be the party for young people, look back at the coalition government, they trebled tuition fees after saying they would not, for me, that is political suicide, it is hard for a party to build up from that. Labour have come out in the manifesto saying they will abolish tuition fees, tracking down Housing Benefits for under 21, humming with progressive policies. Theresa may does not know her left from right. You are voting labour. Supporting Jeremy Corbyn. The suggestion is that the conservatives are not thinking about young people. And you voting conservative. Yes, i think you could make that argument if you we re you could make that argument if you were looking at how society was 40, 50 yea rs were looking at how society was 40, 50 years ago but we are in a changing world, knowledge economy, competing with graduates from china, india, they can compete with degrees just as we can. Agrees are relative at the end of the day, the more people have them, the less they are worth, what you will see and what we have seen over the last ten years is more people are dropping out of university or coming out with a good degree, not being able to find the jobs that match them because there is not that demand. Even if you were. Is not that demand. Even if you were. I dont necessarily want to see the tuition fees raised because i wanted to be accessible to as many people as possible but i dont want it as people as possible but i dont want itasa people as possible but i dont want it as a free service. The conversation you had with yourself, Doi Conversation you had with yourself, do i want that debt, even though it is not a debt that can prohibit many things for you, i think it allows that conversation of, is this education worth it . Am i willing to put myself on the line for this, is there a job out there that i really wa nt there a job out there that i really want that i am prepared to work three orfour want that i am prepared to work three or four years want that i am prepared to work three orfour years in want that i am prepared to work three or four years in some cases for . I think it is a young person issue, and straightaway, when you ask about cannabis, those stereotypes really disengaged young people because it is straightaway, again, votes at 16, any argument about that is that they will legalise weed and things like that, but a lot of young people care about these traditionally old ideas. I think it is those assumptions. Name me one policy from the Conservative Manifesto that is solely focusing on young people. |j think. Ill answer to you straightaway, im not here to defend the conservatives, only representing a young person who is voting for them, but i think that by not reducing tuition fees they will in the long rant helping a lot of young people because they will not be as many young people doing it. But they are pushing a lot of young people into vocational skills, britain is struggling to get people doing the more industrialjobs. We are having to have people in, immigration, to fill that gap. We are currently pushing everyone through academia. She has raised a dangerous arguments twice now, the sense of if too many people have degrees, then it devalues it. What are you trying to say, that we need to stop. By raising tuition fees, we are stopping people. Stopping low income families, who want to go to university, from getting degrees, thatis university, from getting degrees, that is the ultimate im hearing, low income families, getting degrees, Education Needs to be free from the point of access for everyone , from the point of access for everyone, says the labour party. Somebody is to pay for it, it costs a lot of money, nine, ten billion, hasjeremy a lot of money, nine, ten billion, has Jeremy Corbyn a lot of money, nine, ten billion, hasJeremy Corbyn explained how he will pay for this . Clearly in the manifesto they have spoken about being tough on Tax Avoidance, corporations, corporation tax, 5 , raising the tax on the 5 wealthiest people. That tax is not guaranteed for that, ifJeremy Corbyn comes in as Prime Minister, and imposes that 596 as Prime Minister, and imposes that 5 increase on the tax, then the revenue that he said that will come into the treasury is not guaranteed. Because, people coming over from this country, people will do more in their way to avoid tax and people willjust simply shut up shop and they will move to a different country where it is more competitive. The figures Jeremy Corbyn has said are not guaranteed. I have given you a list of three avenues where that guarantee comes from. It is not a guarantee. It is guaranteed in a sense, in a sense where you have a list of three, corporation tax, Tax Avoidance and the top 5 , you can get that and it will cover the tuition fees. I dont think it is right that young people should leave university with such big debts. Focusing on the low income argument, i come from an area where there is a lot of deprivation among young people, i do not think it isa among young people, i do not think it is a case of putting people off that come from low income families, im from one myself, i managed to go to university because of the loan that they gave Maintenance Loan that they gave to me. Im not saying they should take that away, there should still be helpful low income families, that should be in the form ofa families, that should be in the form of a loan that anybody can access, anybody can access that, it is not preventing them. We will bring it to a close, i can see you are all passionate, great to have you there. Now, the worlds most famous gardening event, the chelsea flower show, is opening its gates to the public tomorrow. But some lucky visitors have been given a preview of the shows highlights which include a Tasty Garden Collaboration between dj chris evans and cooking guru mary berry. Our reporter sara smith went to meet them im here among the rhubarb, lettuces and beans of radio 2, one of the five feel good gardens. It is part of their 50th anniversary celebrations. Now, this is one of the gardens, theres jo wileys scent garden, theres zoe balls listening garden. This is the chris evans taste garden. Now, he has spent the morning here, broadcasting his breakfast show, and he is here today to tell us a bit more about it, along with somebody who definitely knows what to do with the produce of this garden, mary berry. Chris, first, tell us a bit about this garden. Well, as you say, its one of our five feel good gardens. Ours is taste. So, to be honest, im a bit of a fraud, the first time i saw it was this morning. Marys been much more involved in it than i have. But it is marvellous. The thing that i was most surprised by is i thought amongst the show gardens i might get lost, but the creators of the gardens have really gone for it, and they really hold their own, so we can only be grateful to those guys. But mary has been involved in this. So, fair to say you havent been down on your hands and knees creating this . No, i was willing but i never got the call quite wisely, i imagine. But, mary, you do love gardening, dont you . I do, and this is making use of a very small plot. I would like this as my front garden. Its all the sort of vegetables that i like. And theyre all absolutely at their prime. Wonderful tomatoes. And unusual things, like a little miniature mulberry tree, that would fit into anybodys garden. But once you get out into a garden like this you feel better, you know . All those aches and pains go, and for children to, get them out and get them gardening. And whats extraordinary is that they bring it all to fruition all at the same time, everything here looks perfect. Thats skill. John wheatley has done that. How hes done it i really dont know. Even celeriac, hes got there. And courgettes, beans, all sorts of things. Hes worked hard. Do you hope that it might encourage people, even with a very small space, to grow something that they can eat themselves . I always say, first of all, grow what you like to eat or your family like to eat. And get the children planting a row of carrots. Theyll all love carrots, and then they put them in their lunchbox can say, i grew it. They are proud, it is something that everybody can do. Has it inspired you, chris . No, i love gardening, my wifes very keen gardener, itsjust that ive not been involved in this one. I didnt want to pretend, cos you always get found out in the end. And mary is quite right, what she says about the show itself, is that its only 11 acres. You dont realise that tell you get here, because it sounds so big and it is so big, its such a big deal, its the biggest, most Famous Garden Show in the world. But what they can do within 11 acres, and then what every individual exhibitor does within their 23 by 23 foot plot, is amazing, and that is sort of a testament to what we can do at home. And you talk about what you can achieve, there is a guy who specialises in indoor gardens the people who havent even got a garden. And hes got this living Orchid Shower Curtain i mean, thats worth coming for on its own, isnt it . There are some extraordinary things here. I hope you get the chance to get out and have a good look around. Now, this is one of 28 gardens. There are hundreds more floral displays, plant displays. Today it is a preview, so we are getting a sneak preview today, but from tomorrow this will be packed with people coming in, Admiring Everything thats going on here. Pack indeed, sarah smith reporting. Packed. The weather is going to be lovely i suspect people will be watering their gardens, because there will not be much rain on offer, what we haveis not be much rain on offer, what we have is probably falling out across scotland, these weak Weather Fronts approaching the uk, what we will find over the weekend is High Pressure building across the uk, drifting towards the west, pulling in later in the week, from the near continent, and then really warming up, and with that wind coming in, the temperatures will not be far off record breaking values for this time of the year. But today, we have had the buttercups of the year. But today, we have had the buttercu ps out of the year. But today, we have had the buttercups out in west berkshire, blue skies as well, buttercu ps berkshire, blue skies as well, buttercups out as well in belfast, buttercups out as well in belfast, but this time, very grey skies, light rain and drizzle is ours around as well, one or two showers in the far north of england, most of the wet weather is in scotland, heavy bursts for northern scotland, pushing out of the way, Skies Clearing for most of us except towards wales and the south west, increasing the low cloud here, missed and hill fog, bit chilly for rural parts, sunshine on the way. Very different look to the day to begin with at least. Bit grey, cloudy, maybe damp as well, probably a bright sunny start across the south east and the East Midlands and across east anglia. Some cloud coming into the midlands. Sunshine further north as well, one or two showers possibly showing, and in the north of scotland, that Rain Clearing away. For most of us, nice day, cloud coming and going during the day, more cloud across south wales, south west england, some coming into the south midlands, towards the south east as well. Not quite as sunny for these areas as it has been, more noticeable around the south west, generally, temperatures in the sunshine up at least into the high teams, maybe to the low 20s. As we head into wednesday, a bit more cloud around on wednesday, breaking up cloud around on wednesday, breaking up and running the area of low pressure, another fine day and warm in the sunshine. As we head towards the end of the week, stays dry, robbery find more blue skies around, and asa robbery find more blue skies around, and as a result, temperatures will be rising, get the wind of the near continent, temperatures in the south east could hit 30 degrees. Get the wind off. Against accusations of a u turn over social care policy. Nothing has changed nothing has changed. Its her answer to critics who See A Climbdown over whether theres a Cap On Social Care costs in england. What we have done is clarified that in the green paper, which will be a consultation document, we will have an upper limit, an absolute limit, on the amount people will pay for care. But Opposition Parties accuse her of changing her mind, saying there was no mention of a cap in the Tory Manifesto. They havent said what the cap is, they havent explained to the millions of people who are desperately worried at the moment about what kind of care theyre going to get in the future. This is a government in chaos and confusion. Well, this is theresa mays manifesto meltdown. The moment their policies are subject to any scrutiny,
