Standing up for young people and the environment, but theyre standing aside in more seats than theyre likely to win in the hope that it will help labour and the liberal democrats. Pushing for a Progressive Alliance with other parties on the left has led to criticism theyll end up in a coalition of chaos. They want to transform politics. To do that, they first need to get located. Elinor garnier, bbc news. Sinn fein has launched its general election manifesto, which is calling for a referendum on whether Northern Ireland should leave the uk and become part of the irish republic. The party wants the vote to be held within five years. Sinn feins leader in Northern Ireland, michelle oneill, said the only way of securing a future in the European Union was to end partition with the republic. 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 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. One of the most recognised and imitated images in the world, known as the great wave, was originally a Woodblock Print created by the japanese artist Katsushika Hokusai almost 200 years ago. It is the centrepiece of a show, that opens this week at the british museum, looking at the last decades of the artists long life, when he produced some of his greatest works. Our arts editor, will gompertz, has been to take a look. Dramatic music. Its emblematic of the power of the sea. Youve got these men in their boats completely dwarfed by the power of the great wave. But i think its also become in some ways emblematic of the power of all of nature. And youre immediately aware of this almost frozen power of the image and ive come to think that maybe hokusai is actually inventing animation with this image. When hokusai made his famous series of wood block prints featuring mount fuji, he was around 70, old for some but not for him. He considered it a new beginning of his life as an artist which he felt had onlyjust begun. At the age of 75 he takes the name old man crazy to paint which is wonderful, i think its an expression of this continuing ambition. He is determined, the older he gets, the better he will become. From the age of 90, there is an extraordinary painting of a dragon in a rain cloud. Technically this is a staggering painting and hokusai has this all worked out in his head before he ever touches his brush to paper. You cant make corrections with this kind of painting, its not like an oil painting where you can scrub a bit out and do it again. Youve got to get it right the first time. His popularity is international. He crosses borders and cultures. What is it about his work that makes it resonate so . Hes interested in the world of work. Ordinary people going about their business in sometimes amazing nature, sometimes in the city of edo. Its not the really grand people he tends to paint, its us. We know hokusai was a great master who influenced the likes of van gogh and degas, but what this exhibition also shows is that old age doesnt necessarily mean a slow decline, rather a fresh start and unleashing of creative powers and a time to produce your finest work. Will gompertz, bbc news. Newsnight is coming up on bbc two, heres even. An awkward day for the tories altering a manifesto policy on social care, that was only four days old. What does it tell us about theresa may . Well hear what one of the daily mails most senior columnists makes of it. Join me now on bbc two. Here on bbc one, its time for the news where you are.

They narrowly avoided relegation this season before, but was saved by sam alla rdyce. Before, but was saved by sam allardyce. He went off to england and david moyes came in.

Russias Paralympic Team have been given a final warning to improve their Doping Controls or face 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 proves that it has changed its practices by early september. I think the thing is, we have already stated today that we havent seen sufficient progress for them to be reinstated. Therefore, the consequence of that, if theyre not reinstated then they wont be in pyeongchang. It is a very, very serious moment, timewise. The British And Irish Lions head coach, warren gatland, says hes disappointed to lose star player billy vunipola, but thinks he and his squad must look forward.

You know, look at managing him. But he was adamant that wasnt right. If someone he was adamant that wasnt right. If someone is not, you know, 100 right in terms of that commitment, he is a big loss to us, but i fully understand and respect the decision thats been made.

It would be great in the future if, you know, maybe the whole england team could possibly be out there. You know, its notjust the fact of playing in the tournament, is just the exposure you get is a player. You know, playing in High Pressure situations against all of the best players in the world, what they do, youve got Guys Bowling 150 and guys working it out the park. If you dont hit the areas you want to bowl. All in all, a great experience. I think everyone who goes out there becomes a better player.

Thats all from sportsday. Coming up in a moment, the papers. Thank you forjoining us. Hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are pauljohnson, Deputy Editor of the guardian and former conservative mp. And director of bell pottinger, tim collins. Good to see you both. Lets have a look at some of the front pages. Tomorrows front pages, starting with. The Financial Times leads with the undisputed political story of the day the conservatives social care u turn. It says its rattled the tory campaign. The telegraph calls it chaos. It reports theres confusion about exactly what the new Social Care Cost Cap will be. The guardian too is deeply critical. It calls it mays manifesto meltdown. Pensioners will pay for the new policy, according to the times, but it reports that tory sources say it wont require tax rises or spending cuts. The metro says that the Prime Minister has denied accusations that shes not so much strong and stable as weak and wobbly. The mirror asks, how can we ever trust mrs u turn . A different lead entirely for the daily mail, an investigation reveals vulnerable teenagers have been exposed to pornography through facebook. A rather topicalfront page from the express, although its not actually about the so called dementia tax. It says scientists have found dementia runs in the family. So, lets begin. Tim, im going to start with you. Theresa may, strong and stable all week and wobbly, like jelly on a plate, so goes the Nursery Rhyme this plays against the very thing that she was trying to put forward in this campaign, its all about leadership, that its about a strong negotiating hand, that you want boadicea leading us into these brexit talks. Jolyon a plate, according to the metro . Jelly on according to the metro . Jelly on a plate. Brexit more than anything else was about politicians not listening. For decades they wouldnt listening. For decades they wouldnt listen to what the public was saying about emigration and power is going to brussels. We do have a prominence to brussels. We do have a prominence to now who clearly has listened. We do have a Prime Minister. The reaction of particularly tory leaning voters on the doorstep was very negative to this, and she has listened. The thing about the u turn bit, that element of the policy that is new today actually takes us straight back to David Camerons policy and what was the goverments policy and what was the goverments policy until a week ago, that there should be a cap. Its not as if she has plucked an idea out of nowhere. That used to be a tory party policy, i thought about it further and we will go back to it.
