Borisjohnson has launched the conservative partys election manifesto, promising to get his brexit deal passed by parliament, as soon as possible after the election, if he wins. In a speech in telford in shropshire, he offered what he called a route map to take the country forward. For the nhs in england theres a pledge to add 50,000 more nurses and restore nursing grants thats on top of an existing promise to pump tens of billions more into the health service. He said thered be no rises in income tax, National Insurance and vat for 5 years. And he pledged to raise the threshold at which people start paying National Insurance to £9,500, a saving of £85 a year, per person. 0ur political editor, laura kuenssberg, was at the manifesto launch, and her report contains some flash photography. Ahead, but far from clear and away. Feeling optimistic ministers . Tories out, tories out the trees know its theirs to lose, but who would bet the tories know its theirs to lose, but who would bet on much these days . This time last year, borisjohnson wasjust a controversial backbencher. Now defending his own position as Prime Minister. And with a list of promises hes making new, trying to secure the conservatives another five years in charge. How is that . Can everybody see that . His number one rallying cry, to move on, and leave the eu injanuary. Do we want more delay . Do we want more dither and drift and deadlock and division . Do we want 2020 to be another year of defeatism and despair . No, we dont. Get brexit done, and we can restore confidence and certainty to business and two families. To business and to families. Get brexit done, and we will see a pent up title wave of investment into this country. Get brexit done, and we can focus our hearts and our minds on the priorities of the british people. The conservatives have already vowed extra money for the health service, but there is a new promise to recruit more nurses. Today, in this manifesto, we pledge 50,000 more nurses and their bussaries, 50 million more gp surgery appointments, and today, we make this guaranteed. Cache to scrap hospital parking charges, taxpayers cash to scrap hospital parking charges, taxpayers money for more childcare, and infrastructure funds, all, he claims, without raising taxes. We can do all these things without raising her income tax, vat, or National Insurance contributions. Thats our guarantee. And in this manifesto. Applause there is a vision of the future. Borisjohnson says he never wanted this election, but its both a huge risk and a huge opportunity for him and his party. Lets go for a sensible, moderate, but tax cutting one nation conservative government, and take this country forwards. Thank you all very much. You won the leadership of your party by making a big promise on brexit that you then broke, despite saying the buck stops with you, now you are trying to win the country with a whole list of promises and significant extra spending, do you accept that beyond this room, and beyond your party, is a big leap of faith for the country to trust you with a majority . The Biggest Issue at this election is really whether people have any confidence in politics any more. And i think the reason that confidence and trust in politics has been so undermined is because for three and half years, they have seen politicians engaged in constant prevarication, procrastination, dither, and delay, when the people of this country voted to get brexit done. The tory leader is now right in the fray, right in the middle of this campaign. But none of the steps spelt out today are designed to create the fireworks hes famous for. Theres no doubt that people are asking politicians, will you stick to what you are saying you will be doing . We couldnt be clearer about getting brexit done. We do want to spend more money on our priorities, the nhs, more on the 20,000 police, more in our schools, but we can do that if we keep the economy strong. Compared to the labour manifesto, this is a pamphlet rather than a phone book, but its a document designed to keep the tories out of trouble, rather than shake up the fundamentals of the campaign. Is this a winning manifesto, mrjohnson . We are fighting very hard, we are fighting very hard. The big contrast between him and his rivals has been there since day one, borisjohnson would take us out of the eu in less than 70 days, thats the choice, vote to leave at speed, or vote for the chance to stay. Laura kuenssberg, bbc news, telford. One of the conservatives key new policies is to add 50,000 more nurses to the workforce in england by 2023. Heres our health editor, hugh pym, with some analysis of that pledge. 50,000 more nurses by 2024 was an eye catching plan set out by Boris Johnson. What does that actually get up to . Well, its not the same thing as recruiting 50,000 new nurses, its adding 50,000 to the workforce in england, currently around 300,000, now, there are a lot of vacancies at the moment, it is difficult recruiting, so the conservatives are arguing this is trying to deal with that problem, but that 50,000 figure includes recruitment overseas, and it includes better retention. That is policies to hold onto nurses and try and make or persuade them that its worth staying with more professional development of their careers rather than leaving early. The recruitment of new nurses is rather less than that, down around between 10,000 20,000, based on more training places. Now, the conservative government scrapped a bursary for training of nurses in england back in 2017, that caused a decline in applications. The conservatives say, if elected, they will reintroduce the maintenance grant of up to £8,000 per year for nursing students. Though not the fees, the reintroduction of free fees. Well our economics editor faisal islam has been taking look at some of the numbers in the conservative manifesto which he says contains no rabbits out of the hat, no huge tax cut rise or new spending item. Its been designed as a steady as she go modest efforts, an equivalent ofa she go modest efforts, an equivalent of a rather low key budgets, with some targeted help. By design, the tax and spend numbers are just much smaller than the limber dems, and especially the labour party. There is extra Nurse Recruitment and appointments costing about {1. 5 billion a year, on top of existing commitments. Thats 600 million a year on commitments. Thats 600 million a year on a commitments. Thats 600 million a year on a National Skills fund. The National Insurance threshold increase costs the exchequer 2. 5 billion a year. Tax cut. Total six and half billion pounds in spending rises in tax cuts. Its pretty modest. And although this spending builds on rises already announced, it doesnt undo ten years of austerity policies. All of that is basically funded by not Cutting Corporation tax, a tax on business profits two 17p, leaving it at 19p instead. About half a billion is raised from increasing charged to migrants to use the health service. This is not a transfer made of manifesto in terms of taxes and plantings budgets, its pre much steady as she goes, take on board the increases announced earlier this year, and then not much in addition. Sol year, and then not much in addition. So i think the big take away here is that most of the cuts that weve seen over the last decade will be baked into spending over the next 34 baked into spending over the next 3 4 years, unless more money turns up 3 4 years, unless more money turns up later on. The big picture is several billion a year, not several tens of billions. 0n year, not several tens of billions. On top of all of this, there is investment spending of a billion a yearin investment spending of a billion a year in the last year for things Like Research and development, and potholes. But they do have space to doa potholes. But they do have space to do a lot more with the new borrowing rules. At the chancellor and Prime Minister want to keep a tight ship, a bit more spending, yes, bit more tax as well, but less than a fraction of 1 of the size of the economy. Faisal islam there. Lets take a look at some of the other measures are in the conservative manifesto. Well theres a commitment to an extra 20,000 Police Officers for england and wales though that would only restore force numbers back to 2010 levels. Theres a pledge for the uk to be Carbon Neutral by 2050, and a promise of 7. 1 billion pounds a year for schools in england, by 2023. 0n immigration the conservatives want to introduce an australian style points system. 0ur chief political correspondent, vikki young, has been gauging the mood in rother valley, in south yorkshire, an area that voted heavily to leave the eu, and where brexit and trust are key election issues. Who are voters moving towards in this former mining town, an area that overwhelmingly backed leaving the eu. So is borisjohnsons promise chiming with leave voters . I want out and over so we can get on with the real things that influence the ordinary people like us. Who can do that for you . The conservatives or the brexit party. I hope what he is saying he will do happens. Will you give him a chance . Yes. In this area, labour have always been strong, what is their view on brexit . They cant decide one way or the other. Outside the Leisure Centre members of this running club are limbering up, many are still undecided about how to cast their vote. It has always been labour, this is an ex mining village, maltby, people voted for labour, but they are changing their views. Is that because of brexit . Maybe. They promise before an election but then they dont deliver. Very up in the air. It has been predominantly labour in this area but i will be backing boris all the way. I do like him as a person. He might not be trustworthy but i do like him. At first glance a seat like rother valley isnt an obvious place for borisjohnson to search for victory, it has only ever been labour. This area voted heavily to leave the eu and the conservatives are hoping their pro brexit message can persuade even traditional labour voters to switch this time. In this pub, many are sticking to labour this time but it is clear trust is an issue for party leaders. I cannot see myself voting tory but i am loathe to vote forJeremy Corbyn. That speaks a lot. Would you normally vote labour . I am a member of the labour party. When you see Boris Johnson on the tv . I used to like him on the tv but i dont see him as a representative for the country. He is embarrassing. I dont trust him. Sorry, thats awful to say, but ijust dont trust him. Borisjohnson knows he has to turn places like this from red to blue to win the election outright, and brexit could be the key. Labour says if it wins the election, women who lost out on their state pensions when the retirement age was raised, will be compensated. Sums of up to 31,000 pounds could be handed out to the nearly 4 million women affected. Labour estimates the overrall cost would be 58 billion pounds, over 5 years. Todays announcement wasnt part of their manifesto and both the conservatives and the liberal democrats have described the promise, as uncosted. The liberal democrat leader, jo swinson has said there has been a squeeze on her party during the campaign but that she is not conceding yet. Speaking on the Bbcs Andrew Marr show, swinson also attacked Jeremy Corbyns neutral stance on brexit and said the liberal democrats priority was to stop brexit from happening. Well, of course the liberal democrats want to stop brexit and we will be campaigning to stop brexit. Ok, if that is the case, Jeremy Corbyn is offering a referendum, you may not like every aspect of what he is saying, but he is offering a referendum, and borisjohnson very much isnt, doesnt that mean you are inevitably going to have to lean towards the labour party and help them form a government, vote things through for them, rather than the conservatives . Well, first of all, as things stand, as things stand, borisjohnson is on course to get a majority, and liberal democrats are the best placed party to stop it. Ah, you think that is what is happening at the moment . If you look at the polls right now, that is what they say. Now there is, obviously, two and a half weeks to go in this campaign, and i am working very hard to change that situation. You are not conceding yet, but you think that he is going to win . Of course i am not conceding yet. Liberal democrats are campaigning hard right across the country, and we are making real inroads, but we need to make sure we win those seats from the conservatives, and we are in a position to do that in a way that labour simply is not. If he doesnt win an overall majority, and he comes to you saying, listen, jo, i never thought. I dont want to do this, i am doing this through gritted teeth, jo, but to get my deal through, to get my Withdrawal Agreement through, i am prepared to offer the liberal democrats a referendum on that deal afterwards, what do you say to him . Look, i am not putting borisjohnson orJeremy Corbyn into number ten, but if there is a law in parliament. The voters might. If there is a law in parliament that i can vote for that makes sure that the brexit deal is put to the public, with the opportunity to remain, i will vote for that. We have always said we will vote for that. Ah, 0k. So if borisjohnson tries to do a deal with you, whereby he gets his Withdrawal Agreement through the house of commons, he delivers his promise to get brexit done, but in return for that, he gives you a referendum, you say yes . I am not doing a deal, andrew. I am going to vote for the things that i am standing up for, for the things that i believe in, and i believe we should stop brexit, and it may be that a peoples vote is the best way to do that. We have campaigned for that for more than three years and so, as we have said, over the last year, if we can put a specific brexit deal to the British Public with the option to remain, liberal democrats will support having a peoples vote. We will vote for that legislation. That was jo swinson speaking that wasjo swinson speaking to injure my earlier. And the leader of the snp, Nicola Sturgeon, said that scrapping the uks nuclear deterrent, trident would be one of her red lines in the event of her party supporting a labour government. I have a moral objection to weapons of mass destruction, unlikejo swinson, i wouldnt be prepared to press the Nuclear Button that would kill potentially millions, tens of millions of people, but there is also the opportunity costs of trade ins, the billions, tens of billions of pounds that are required to renew trident, in my view, better spent on stronger conventional defence that is more effective to protect our country, but also on hospitals, schools, better Social Security provisions, and these are the choices that we should be thinking very carefully about. You know, if the snp is in that position of influence, then these are absolutely the kind of policies that we will pursue. That was the snps Nicola Sturgeon there.

Michetes are recovered and vue cinemas pull the gang film blue story. Five teenagers have been arrested after a brawl at a cinema in birmingham, in which a number of Police Officers were injured.

Screaming chaos and confusion at the star city complex in birmingham early last night as the police tried to restore order. Officers were called following reports that a group of people armed with machetes had arrived at the cinema. Fights broke out as the police tried to move around 100 people. It was a frightening atmosphere and its almost very upsetting because this is a place where families come to enjoy themselves, its an entertainment complex, these young kids were there last night to see frozen. Police brought tasers to try to contain the incident and several arrests were made for assaulting officers. This happened spontaneously. As we said we are not certain what caused it so we wont get into speculation. It is reassuring we were able to deal with it. This photo has been widely shared on social media. A young boy holding a machete shown here in the blue circle. Police believe it was taken at the scene and they want to hear from the families of those in the photo. Tonight, the vue cinema chain has confirmed it has pulled the film blue story from all its venues following the trouble here at star city. But the police say they are not sure if the film which is about Gang Violence is linked to the brawl. Five people have been arrested for assaulting officers and failing to disperse, including a 13 year old girl. Jenny kumar, bbc news.
