These women look really exhausted. Theyre coming on one by one. One of the women i see has got a little child with her. Summer isnt here yet, and some rivers are already running dry fears that we could be heading into a drought. And coming up in the sport on bbc news, can chelsea relegate middlesbrough and be just one more win away from the Premier League title with a victory in their meeting tonight at Stamford Bridge . Good evening from paris, where the President Elect, Emmanuel Macron, has been celebrating his decisive victory over Marine Le Pen in yesterdays election, and hes already started work on forming his government, ahead of his formal inauguration on sunday. Hes already been congratulated by many world leaders, including the british Prime Minister, theresa may. Mr macron won with 66. 1 of the vote, with Marine Le Pen of the Front National taking 33. 9 . The turnout was 7a , the lowest in nearly 50 years, and around 11. 5 Million People abstained. The transfer of power is underway. Earlier today, mr macron and president hollande appeared side by side at a ceremony here at the Arc De Triomphe, to mark the end of the Second World War in europe. After a bitter and divisive campaign, mr macron has promised to fight the forces of division that undermine france. 0ur europe editor, katya adler, reports on the days events. Its been a day of reflection in france. Paying tribute to world war ii fallen. Taking stock of fresh challenges ahead. Frances brand new President Elect here at ve day commemorations, taking his cue from outgoing head of state, francois hollande. Frances soon to be youngest ever president looked a little unsure last night as well. Rehearsing for his new role, as he prepared for his first public appearance. But by the time he took to the stage Emmanuel Macron had a confident, for many controversial, message, and to the tune of the eu anthem, he said europe was the future of the new dynamic france. Leading europhiles are delighted. If in understated tones. Translation Emmanuel Macron carries the hopes of millions in france and across europe. He led a courageous, pro european campaign, and stands for openness in the world. Emmanuel macron has raised high expectations, promising many things to many people, to dramatically reform france, caring for the fragile while boosting business, and to be very tough on brexit, but he doesnt have his own government or mps in parliament, so is he flexing muscles he doesnt yet have . Frances President Elect has made brexit threats aplenty. Damp and desperate in calais today. After brexit, mr macron has vowed to tear up an agreement where france prevents thousands of migrants making their way to dover each year. And hes talked of luring banks and businesses from the City Of London this side of the channel. At a Campaign Event in london today, the Prime Minister said mr macrons Brexit Ambitions must be matched. He was elected with a strong mandate, which gives him a strong position in the negotiations. In the uk, we need to ensure we have an equally strong mandate, and an equally strong negotiating position. But domestic discontent, not brexit, will be mr macrons main focus. This was a trade Union Demonstration earlier today. Macron was foisted on us by banks, lobbies and the eu elite, she says. He doesnt represent much of france. As a centrist politician, Emmanuel Macron faces opposition left and right. 0nly weeks away from a crucial parliamentary election. Despite all the lively celebrations we saw last night, when Emmanuel Macron greeted his supporters after the result was declared, and despite his very decisive margin of victory, there are revealing trends among those who voted for him in yesterdays Run Off AgainstMarine Le Pen. There is in some quarters a real sense of voting against le pen rather than for macron, so to find out more, earlier today i went to one of the parisian suburbs to meet some parents at a Junior Football tournament in the city. Its the annual Bank Holiday Football Tournament in this eastern suburb of paris, a typically Diverse Community on the outskirts of the capital, and where the reaction on the terraces to yesterdays election seems to be more relief than enthusiasm. Im sure that lots of people vote for him yesterday, but its almost against Marine Le Pen, and hes young, and he doesnt have any past. Experience . Experience, so it might be difficult for him. But i think he can do it. It is a complex picture, even in a mixed Community Like this one. One of the coaches who left his ballot paper blank, by the way told me that the issue of immigration and social integration raised by le pen had to be taken seriously. Translation it is a big problem, even for established immigrants like me. Foreigners coming to france these days just arent able to integrate. 11 million voters went for le pen. That doesnt mean all of them are racist. And it is abundantly clear that it was fear of a le pen presidency more than anything else that drove many people to vote for a political novice as president. Translation im very happy it wasnt le pen, but macron wasnt exactly my choice. As most people will tell you, this election was about voting against le pen, not for macron. There had been talk on the left of sitting it out, of refusing to take part, and while some certainly did, it didnt change the dynamics of the 2017 race. I have some friends from the left, from the right, and everybody in paris vote for the same man. The first time that, when i have lunch with people, everybody agree to vote for that man. And in this parisian suburb, another element of consensus among the parents. If macron gets it wrong, le pen will be back in five years time, probably with a very different result. 0ur paris correspondent, lucy williamson, is with me. Can we talk about the challenges ahead for mr macron . Hes in an unusual position, because he will have to create a government pretty much from scratch. His On Marsh Movement is a year old, and he doesnt have much experience. So he will have to create a fairly complex government, with a mix of right and left, and who we will need a Prime Minister who can hold that together. He has someone in mind, but he is going to have to do well in next months elections. En marche is to knew at the moment, that they are fielding candidates to try to get a strong coalition, is not a majority. Thank you. And underlining the challenges ahead, just six days to go before mr macron is installed officially at the Elysee Palace as president. Thats all from us. In the meantime, back to george. Police in liverpool say a two Year Old Girl who was attacked by dogs has had surgery for extensive injuries to her head and body. The little girl was at her aunts house when the dogs got into the back garden. Officers have arrested a man and seized 11 dogs from a nearby house as our correspondent yunus mulla reports. The two Year Old Girl was playing with other children in the garden of a relatives home when she was attacked by a number of dogs. She was taken by Air Ambulance to liverpools Alder Hey Hospital after suffering injuries to her head and body during the incident yesterday. The little girls aunt, who was looking after the children for the afternoon, fought off the attack and ran to the front of the house. Neighbours describe hearing a scream, the dogs got the baby. Merseyside Police Believe the dogs managed to get into the garden from a neighbouring terraced house. A man who is 35 was arrested on suspicion of having dogs dangerously out of control. We have seized 11 dogs. There were five adults and six puppies in the address next door. We dont know exactly where they were but we know they were either in the house or in the garden of a property nearby to the one where the child was attacked. The girl is said to be serious but stable in hospital, but not in a life threatening condition. Yunus mulla, bbc news, liverpool. Now, in a move to tackle Childhood Obesity, labour says it will bring in a total ban on tv adverts for junk food before the 9pm watershed. The current rules, which the conservatives argue are the strictest in the world, prevent adverts for products high in fat, salt or sugarfrom being run around childrens tv programmes. Heres our Health Editor hugh pym. Thats healthy, though, isnt it . Labours John Ashworth was back at school today, learning with pupils how to prepare healthy food. If the partys elected, he says there will be a new strategy aimed at halving Childhood Obesity in ten years. We want to have the healthiest children in the world. Yes, that is an ambitious target but to be frank, im ambitious for the children of this country. Labour wants to spend £250 million a year more on Public Health in england, including more nurses in schools and getting every Government Department to help promote child health. Last year, 40 of children in englands most deprived areas were overweight or obese, compared to 27 in the most affluent areas. But it is worth noting the uk as a whole has some of the lowest rates of tooth decay in 12 year olds in europe. Many schools are doing everything they can to promote Healthy Lifestyles for pupils, whether it is through exercise in the playground or the quality of meals on offer. The really big problem is what happens beyond the school gate, when children and their parents choose what they eat and drink. Dominos sponsors the voice. Labour thinks one answer is to ban Tv Advertising like this on all programmes before 9pm forfood and drinks which are high in fat, sugar and salt. Currently, it is barred for childrens tv. So how did that go down with parents we talked to today . Well, its a laudable idea but i cant see it making much difference, to be honest. The stuff is still in the supermarkets and shops. I aint got a problem with it. I think the kids are eating too much junk anyway. If it is not in their heads, they probably wont go looking for it when they are at the supermarket. But the Advertising Industry says it would hit tv companies hard. This is about free to air tv in most instances. It is about the programmes that we all enjoy and if theres less money around to make those programmes, we are all going to get less choice. The conservatives said the governments Childhood Obesity plan was one of the most ambitious in the world and the uk already had one of the strictest Tv Advertising regimes. They said labours promises were unfunded. Hugh pym, bbc news. Theresa may has confirmed that the conservatives will stick to their target of reducing immigration to Tens Of Thousands A year. Its a pledge which has been repeatedly missed, with numbers in the hundreds of thousands instead. Meanwhile, ukip has said it wants to cut immigration altogether over a five year period with what it calls a one in, one out policy. Heres our political editor, laura kuennsberg. They couldnt leap to their feet fast enough. Ministers and wannabe mps gathered in harrow in north west london, exactly the kind of closely fought seat where they believe they have a chance. Great to be with you all this morning, as we move into the next phase of this vitally important general election campaign. But it was team to reza who year after year missed their target for net immigration which has been three times higher than the limit of 100,000. What is the point of sticking to an Immigration Target that many of your colleagues think is unworkable, some people even think it is pointless, and when you we re think it is pointless, and when you were in charge as Home Secretary, the target has been missed for six yea rs. The target has been missed for six years. We want to bring net migration down to sustainable levels. We believe that if the Tens Of Thousands And of course, once we leave the european union, we will have the opportunity to ensure we have the opportunity to ensure we have control of our borders here in the uk. So the target space but note you did not hear a deadline. Three Cabinet Ministers here, why should voters believe the Prime Minister will meet the Immigration Target when she did not when she was Home Secretary for six years . Shes made it very clear that when we leave the european union, things change. Michael green she will see the policies bring. But her record as Home Secretary was you missed the target for six years. I think you look at her record as Home Secretary, you will find you achieved great things. It wouldnt bea achieved great things. It wouldnt be a British Campaign without a ba na na be a British Campaign without a banana somewhere. Whatever point this voter in Leamington Spa was trying to make. Labour does not put a number on its Immigration Plans but say the target just does not work. Theresa may made that promise in 2010 at the same in 2015 and did not get anywhere near it on any occasion at all. 0bviously, our ma nifesto occasion at all. 0bviously, our manifesto will set out our policy when it is produced. Ukip has its own new idea for tighter control, one in, one out. Ukip will go into this election with a policy of balanced migration, which means zero net immigration over the next five years. Scotlands first minister, pulling pints in perth, wants power over immigration in edinburgh. Having a tory target that is not practical, will not be met but is driven by ideology, will harm the economy and it is another reason why it is important that we have mps in this election standing up for scotlands interests. I have got my running kit with me. Close by, the lib dems were of the votes in saint andrews. It was policy during the coalition but they are unimpressed today. Dont set a silly, Artificial Target that you know you will break just because it will please a couple of newspapers. Yet the target will say, stay, easierto of newspapers. Yet the target will say, stay, easier to hit, of newspapers. Yet the target will say, stay, easierto hit, in theory after brexit but no explanation from the tories so far of what they will do in practice. We are in rather a no mans land, the time before the main Political Parties are ready with their final ma nifestos. Parties are ready with their final manifestos. It is only then we will see exactly what promises they are willing to make in black and white but it is absolutely clear however unworkable, however discredited, theresa may is adamant she will stick to her Immigration Target. But how she plans to get there . We are still in the dark. Laura kuenssberg, bbc news, harrow. Our top story this evening. The transition of power is under way in france. The countrys incoming president Emmanuel Macron is set to be installed in six days time. And still to come. Summer is not here yet but there are already be as we could be heading for a drought. Coming up in sportsday on bbc news, former premier League PlayerSulley Muntari claims fifa and uefa dont care about racism, after he walked off the field during an Italian League game, and he says hed do it again. More than 7,000 migrants have been rescued in the mediterranean over the last few days. Thats according to the italian coast guard. Officials say as many as 200 are feared to have drowned. So far this year, numbers are 50 higher than at the same time last year. Theyre thought to have made the treacherous crossing from libya in search of a new life in europe. The bbcs Reeta Chakrabarti has spent the last week on a rescue ship and joins us live from Vibo Valentia in southern italy. Reeta. George, spring is here, the seas are calmer and the migrant boats are coming again and in major numbers. The Easter Weekend Saw over 8000 people make this lethally dangerous crossing and this weekend, similar numbers. This aid ship that i am an brought over 500 people from that rescue zone to this italian port and a charity Save The Children said was their biggest operation yet. Seven uneventful days at sea with the rescue mission, and then suddenly, this. We have two rowing boats, possibly also one other boat. Team, please prepare on deck for rescue. A scene, said the crew, like never before. First two, then three, then, as we were spotted, more and yet more boatloads of People Veering towards us, to rescue and safety. These women look really exhausted. They are coming on one by one. One woman i have seen has got a child with her. This toddler named blessing is one of the tiniest travellers. Her mother, joy, whos nigerian, said she risked the journey because she could not return to her home country. Shed been working in libya, where she was repeatedly kidnapped and ransomed for money. I asked her what she hoped for from the future. Blessing is happily ignorant of her mothers grief and oblivious to the peril that she has just faced. Still they come. Goodness knows how many people are crammed into that rubber dinghy. They are all processed now, checked. This man is clearly in pain. The vast majority on board are men of working age from west and east africa and also from asia. There are many factors driving them but the turmoil in libya is key. Last year broke records for the number of migrants making the crossing and this year looks set to top that. Italy has borne the weight of housing and caring for them, but opinion is hardening, with claims that these Rescue Missions are a taxi service for migrants and even that the aid agencies are colluding with libyan People Smugglers to bring the migrants to europe. 0ur Sole Mission is to save the lives of people and especially children who are escaping violence, persecution and extreme poverty. We have no contact whatsoever with People Smugglers. Earlier in the week, a body was spotted. The sea is a graveyard, too. The search will go on. This crossing from libya has become an established route, run by ruthless criminals, who care little whether their desperate passengers will see another day. Reeta chakrabarti, bbc news. The bbc has unveiled details of its general Election Debate programmes. There will be two question Time Specials hosted by david dimbleby, in which leaders will face audience questions. The first will be with theresa may and Jeremy Corbyn on the 2nd ofjune. There will also be a seven way debate with senior Party Figures on the 31st of may. The halifax bank says prices in the uk fell by 0. 2 between debris and april. House prices fell. It is the first quarterly drop for more than four years, the lender says Household Finances have been squeezed by rising prices in the shops, weakening demand for homes. Its the kind of sight youd expect to see in summer but in some parts of the uk, rivers are running dry after a winter without much rain. This met office map of rainfall in april shows that most of the uk experienced less than half the average amount. The darkest areas are those that have received less than a third. Danny savage reports from the yorkshire dales. Across large parts of britain at the moment, theres a lack of water. A dry spring, preceded by low winter rainfall, has left many riverbeds exposed. This wouldnt be an unusual widespread sight in late summer but it is rare in may. When i had a walk and ride round up there on friday, you get a lot of small ponds and wet holes that are usually there all the year round. Theyre all dry now, absolutely bone dry. Theres nothing at all in the bottom of them. Stuart hird has farmed here all his life. The riverbed drying up isnt unheard of but hes noticed the Hillside Springs are not right. You can tell that it has been a lot drier because we are actually noticing sheep that actually come down to the parts of the river that are, where water is still running. You are noticing Sheep Standing on the river bank, drinking, whereas ordinarily, they would be spread about up on the fells and drinking out of Little Springs and streams and things like that, which suggests that there isnt as much water up there as what there has been in other times. 0ther Catchments are parched, too. These pictures were taken around england over the last few days, showing rivers many miles apart in a similar condition. But Yorkshire Water says there should not be widespread alarm. I think nationally, its been very dry. Up in yorkshire, i think it has been a dry winter, probably the driest in the last six years but we have seen recharge. Sort of, every other month, we have seen some rainfall but in the last six weeks, we have just seen dry. A few dry months does not make a drought, though. It may be bone dry in some of the headwaters of these River Catchments but we are a long way from a water crisis. A few miles down the valley, the wharf looks a lot more healthy and reservoir levels are holding up, too. A prolonged dry spell may change things but it would have to be for months. Danny savage, bbc news, Upper Wharfedale in north yorkshire. Time for a look at the weather. Heres tomasz schafernaker. Look at this picture, i dont think anyone was complaining in scotland today that it is dry, absolutely stunning, this is a picture from one of our weather watchers from argyll bute but look at the contrast. That is not for me, thick cloud and a cold breeze of the north sea and you can see that distinct difference between the east and the west, which was basking in sunshine across western and Northern Areas where is eastern areas stayed cool and cloudy and over the next few days, little or no rain so the drive he will continue through most of this week and there is a hint, some rain on the way. Tonight, very little change. Starry skies across many western parts of the uk and thicker cloud across eastern parts. Tomorrow morning, again, starting on a beautiful note so if you live in glasgow, belfast, cardiff, down to plymouth and the south coast of england, stunning, clear blue skies and nice enough in the afternoon but the midlands and eastern counties on the midlands and eastern counties on the cool and cloudy side, 11 degrees in norwich and hull. Tomorrow night into wednesday, it will be chilly with a grass frost on the way. Wednesday across frost but then really strong sunshine and temperatures shooting back up into the mid to high teens. Decent day on the mid to high teens. Decent day on the way for most of us on wednesday. Into thursday, starting to see changes, the atmosphere rearranging itself, shifting a little bit, starting to see cloud streaming in from the south so perhaps thickening cloud and spots of Rain In The South but nothing too heavy and still lovely weather across the north of glasgow, 16 degrees. Friday, Weather Fronts moving through and potential downpours with thunder and lightning and it looks as though the outlook in the next week or so is certainly looking more unsettled so the wellies will be out and the puddles are on the way.
