North easterly. Further spells of rain at times, some bright, dry intervals to be had but still feeling cold as we go through the day on saturday. And not much changes as we go into sunday. Weve still got low pressure in charge, dragging ina still got low pressure in charge, dragging in a north or north easterly wind, so it is going to feel cold once again and rather like saturday. There will be some dry, bright intervals but a lot of cloud around and at times we are going to see outbreaks of rain and it remains cold with these temperatures once again on the disappointing side. Now, as we head into the start of next week, well see another ridge of High Pressure work its way into start monday. However, what that means it is going to open the floodgates to a more northerly flow, quite a cold direction to be coming from. Showery outbreak is well down the north sea coast will feel bitterly cold here. Elsewhere, many faces look as though they should remain dry with those of sunshine. Further on into next week, low pressure sunshine. Further on into next week, low pressure once sunshine. Further on into next week, low pressure once again starts to edge its way in, but this time more ofa edge its way in, but this time more of a southerly direction, bringing spells of rain but with a southerly flow that means temperatures will start to pick up a little, so it will turn a little milder. Temperatures back to where they should be for this time of the year. So further spells of rain, it will feel windy and at times quite cold. Hello. This is bbc news with lukwesa burak. Well be taking a look at tomorrow mornings papers in a moment first the headlines. Ministers announce more support for flood victims in the north of england. Some 30 flood warnings remain in place, with more heavy rain forecast, as locals say they feel let down by the official response. Communities have been absolutely amazing. The official people that should have been telling us what to do, get out of your house, move your things, even that it was coming, we had no idea. Just a complete contrast. The Environment Agency says flood defences have reduced some of the impact, prompting more debate about where the money has been spent. Life sentences for the parents of six children who murdered two teenage sons a day after trying to poison them. In hong kong, police warn that the rule of law is on the brink of total collapse after months of pro democracy protests. And, the spats between Raheem Sterling and joe gomez are just like a family disagreement, according to the england manager. Hello and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. With me are henry zeffman, Political Correspondent for the times and Kezia Dugdale from the glasgow based research body, thejohn smith centre for public service, and also, of course, the former scottish labour leader. Many of tomorrows front pages are already in. The Prime Minister is to promise a Clean Energy Revolution if the conservative party were to win the general election thats according to the telegraph. The labour party head the front of the mirror, with their £26 billion pledge to the nhs. The Financial Times reports that the government have challenged six leading Accounting Firms on their ability to survive a financial shock in a test of resilience ahead of a possible industry break up. The metro leads on a story about an incestual couple who murdered their children and have now beenjailed for at least 35 years each. The daily mail describe the hero who died withoutjustice, after none of the detectives who were involved in the questioning of lord bramall over false child abuse claims have been punished. And the sun report that the duke and duchess of sussex will be breaking tradition by not spending christmas with the queen at sandringham. We are going to start off with the general election and the front page of the mirror. You want to kick us off, henry . The net nhs is at the heart of the campaign but this time much more than usual and the reason is borisjohnson much more than usual and the reason is Boris Johnson is much more than usual and the reason is borisjohnson is following an atypical path than most tories. It is putting the nhs and the conservative party does make record on the nhs at the heart of his election pitch and what we have is labour trying to fight back. This is, ina labour trying to fight back. This is, in a speech tomorrow, an offer of £26 billion to what the mirror describes as repair the damage of 20 yea rs of describes as repair the damage of 20 years of tory austerity is. Not all of the points around the front page but it includes equipment, more hospitals. It should be seen in the context of the labour party tried to wrestle back the narrative that they other party to vote for if you want investment in the nhs. How does this compare to the tory pledge . M investment in the nhs. How does this compare to the tory pledge . It is definitely a pitch from labour to move it onto. Important to point out that the nhs is in england for this context because health is devolved in scotland and wales so it is £26 billion for englands nhs nhs. It isa billion for englands nhs nhs. It is a big number. What does it mean to people at home . Does it mean they will get to see their gps when they wa nt will get to see their gps when they want to, the cancer analysis they need within two weeks, 16 weeks or a timeframe that suits their families needs . Need to be broken down to more meaningful ways for families to understand, it is enough one money at it it will work for them. The tories say 20. 5 william. Is the nhs fixable . There is a question i think it is very natural for Political Parties to see that more money will improve the nhs. To say. There is undoubtedly a wider question about reforming the nhs. We should be talking about this perhaps in this, adult social care, how to talents the pressure is the nhs face around care workers and how to make it work letter in a more efficient way that respects the needs of elderly people. That is where a lot of reform needs to happen. We might see that in the general Election Campaign but right now we are seeing more money for nurses and hospital. It is not often that people will praise theresa may these days but she tried to level with the public that social care was a very collocated problem where some people would have to lose out on the status quo to fix it. There were lots of problems with her proposed fixed and thatis problems with her proposed fixed and that is the reason she went through the unprepared the step of dumping it just after she the unprepared the step of dumping itjust after she announced it but the reality of that experience for her is that no party leaders, of whatever stripe, are going to go near the really thorny questions, the questions in what are usually called the too difficult box. And certainly not an Election Campaign was to but is notjust true of social care, but so many issues. More generally than health, too. The way in which we fight Election Campaigns and it is fight it is partly the medias fault, and also the public, people have busy lives and they dont have time to engage with the structural issues but if every five years or few at the moment, parties need to have bite sized manifestoes and easy to understand policies, then those longer term, structural issues across all sorts of areas are not going to get solved. And also the publics view of what the nhs is is so different. We had a reality check a few days ago and i think it was fascinating for a lot of people to learn that there is a lot or rather a percentage of services that are shipped out to the private sector in terms of nhs care. It is really interesting. It is not what it started out as. The demands are different and the services it provides are also different. Different and the services it provides are also differentm different and the services it provides are also different. It is a heart and soul issue as well thought of that is what it is for the labour party. Its finest achievement as a movement was the nhs and it wants to win it in Election Campaigns. This is why you will see a big set piece from john ashworth. But will it tackle the Big Questions we know that are there in the Public Policy . Well, we will have to wait and see. Well, we will have to wait and see. We will see how matt hancock will react. He has said it is not for sale. Watch this space tomorrow. Let us turn to the telegraph. The green revolution, pledges the pm. This is from the Horace Johnson to deal with the uks manufacturing industry, the car industry in decline and the solution, lets have more electric ca rs solution, lets have more electric cars and lets make them in britain. This is part of the green revolution which the Prime Minister is pledging. Serious investment in that particular industry. Not wholly clear from the telegraphs front page i brexit is a factor here and why being in or out of the eu might make making cars easier on the or more difficult. But that is the pitch. We will create more jobs, make cars again but they will be green. Why the proviso of getting brexit done in order to achieve this . I dont know and in fairness to borisjohnson, this . I dont know and in fairness to Boris Johnson, i this . I dont know and in fairness to borisjohnson, i cant see that framing in any of his direct quotes in this story but i think again, looking at where, the reason Boris Johnson is a saying this, partly it is because he is pitching for votes in constituencies which are currently labour which are trying to find a sort of way to thrive in a post Industrial Age and this is a way of saying to these communities, look, here are the jobs of the future we can bring to you. It is also more generally borisjohnson trying to confront an area of weakness, past weakness, for the conservative party on green issues. In the last year in particular, green issues have rocketed up the agenda. It is partly Extinction Rebellion in the uk but also a part ofa rebellion in the uk but also a part of a local movement of concern about Climate Change. And the conservative party, perhaps not in the selection, but certainly in the election in decades to come, cant win if it is not seen as taking Climate Change seriously. I think that is as stark asa seriously. I think that is as stark as a conservative strategists see it. The conservative party used to be good on green issues. Lots of people remember David Cameron cycling to work and that was a big deal even though it then turned out there was a car behind with his shoes on it. But yeah, again, this is borisjohnson shoes on it. But yeah, again, this is Boris Johnson making shoes on it. But yeah, again, this is borisjohnson making an incursion into what would be seen as traditional labour territory. Into what would be seen as traditional labour territorym seems an obvious pledge to have in all the manifestoes. For all the parties. But you do have to ask, what have they delivered on so far . Perhaps the example of london is very high profile, you have the congestion charge and the fight against wood burners but it makes you pause and think how difficult or easy it is to meet these commitments. When you are talking about Something Like Climate Change, if you are focusing on matters in issue, people who respond are knowledgeable and educated about the detail and what you actually need to do to reduce the amount of carbon emissions. They would remember the story from last week, the government seemed to equivocate whether it was for or against fracking. All of these stories pile up and are read asa trend. These stories pile up and are read as a trend. I think the tories might have to do a bit more to convince people they are in the right frame when it comes to Climate Change. 0k, let us turn to the independent. Tories running scared on fake spending figures. So says who . So says the labour party, you will be stunned to hear. We have been talking about a big number in the nhs. But this is another consist controversial number. The cost the conservative party have said of a five years of a labour government. Thejeremy five years of a labour government. The Jeremy Corbyn five years of a labour government. TheJeremy Corbyn government. It must be said, hotly contested analysis of how labours various Spending Plans various previously announced, stack up. Yes, the conservative party have been accused of fa ke conservative party have been accused of fake spending figures, as that independent has reported. The reason they throughout this 1. 2 trillion pounds figure was to get people talking about it. We are several days on from the first day of that round and it is still high up the news agenda. Even if people have not liked the way they have gone about it. What this story is about is the tories are saying to the nation, labour will spend too much of your money for top they will be throwing it left, right and centre the money will flow into the nhs and the english Education System once again. They are relying on voters having a short Attention Span and not linking up short Attention Span and not linking up each day of his Election Campaign to the one who preceded it. Ultimately, this is about money and the public trust the figures they are hearing. 1. 2 the public trust the figures they are hearing. 1. 2 trillion, thousands of billions of pounds, what does it really mean . The reality is and we have seen it in our own research at the john smith centre, the promises . They dont expect their politicians to keep them. I suppose it doesnt help. You need to start quoting numbers that are reliable. The video put up byjohn mcdonald basically saying, come on, sajid javid, come and to beat me. In this, he said and only 5 of top tax earners will pay more tax. All of the big players are going to leave if labour are in power. You have to question whether thatis power. You have to question whether that is going to be reassuring. Where do those people go . Is it other eu countries . Are they able to do theirjobs and business there in the same way they do in the uk . I think labour in fairness have a basket of other things in this Election Campaign and they are not just going for people in that topping come top income bracket was not they are going about companies was not they want to spend more money on Public Services and they are going to detail how they will go about it. To the public want to vote on taxes . It depends if you are paying them a lot. Let us turn to the times will stop future flood victims could get could get money. The floods, particularly in and around doncaster, has become quite intensely politicised. We have had Jeremy Corbyn urging Boris Johnson to do more. We have every person going up there with can be any entirely tv with conveniently tv cameras nearby. This wont affect people have it that have been affected now but forward looking. The Government Agency set up three yea rs the Government Agency set up three years ago after a previous bout of floods, they are going to give people financial incentives to basically flood proof their homes or move towards a flood proving their homes in advance. I suppose this is the start of signs that the government already has measures in place for protecting people against floods because clearly the conservative party cant get into a position where there is a narrative that they only care about flood victims if they are in the south for example which has been taking in some areas over the last few days. The scheme is called called back et al. You will be incentivised to have more to waterproofing, they will move plug sockets up. I guess if you are facing flooding right now, you will think it is too little too late but the idea is it lacks your house stronger for next time around. Some parts of the country where the river don have burst its banks have seen flooding before but some of the towns havent flooded in hundreds of years so they might respond so well to this government initiative. If you do have a property where you have those defences put on, if it comes to fruition, you do have to wonder what it will do to your property price. Big flashing red light that you have experienced flooding now. Experienced flooding now. Experienced flooding now. Experienced flooding before. The paper reporting the death of lord bramall who has died at the age 95. Field marshal lord bramall was the head of the armed forces some time ago. But in recent years came back to the headlines and the public eye because he was one of the public figures who was investigated over allegations of child abuse. Those allegations of child abuse. Those allegations turned out to be false. Carla beach who was at the time dubbed nick was jailed for perverting the laws ofjustice in july. Perverting the laws ofjustice in july perverting the laws ofjustice in july. Perverting the laws ofjustice in july. Perverting the laws ofjustice in july. Carl beech. Clearly, there are lots of questions more generally, regardless of lord bramalls sade death, about whether Police Officers who were involved in this investigation should face penalties. Sad death. This will only fuel those questions. Lord bramall, we have only got about a minute, lets turn to the sun. Breaking tradition with harry and the quee
