more than half a million pounds is raised for a 17—year—old racing driver, who‘s had both legs amputated after being involved in a crash. it‘s 5 o‘clock. our main story, the labour leader, jeremy corbyn, has promised to overturn what he called a ‘rigged system‘, which allowed the rich and powerful to ‘leech off‘ ordinary working people. in his first major speech of the election campaign, he said the party‘s manifesto was fully costed, and he denied that a conservative victory onjune the eighth was a ‘foregone conclusion‘. our political correspondent, iain watson, reports. the next prime minister of the uk, jeremy corbyn. do you believe it, do they believe it, does he believe that? opinion polls suggest it is highly unlikelyjeremy corbyn will be heading for downing street. but he is trying to change people‘s minds. much of the media and the establishment are saying this election is a foregone conclusion. they think there are rules in politics which, if you don't follow by doffing your cap to the powerful people, accepting that things cannot really change, then you cannot win. but of course they do not want us to win because when we win it is the people, not the powerful who win. jeremy corbyn was full of vim, zip and energy. he said the conservatives are morally bankrupt. the system is rigged. and he would prove people wrong. anyone who stands up to create a better, fairer and more decent society gets vilified. our party gets vilified. but we are bigger and stronger than have ever been. and more determined than we ever been. his challenge is convincing enough people outside of this run. there is a clear choice between strong and stable government under theresa may and the conservatives, or a coalition of chaos withjeremy corbyn propped up by the snp and the lib dems. parliament will soon be dissolved. politics will leave this postcode and head to your postcode. if you want to have a say, you have one month to register to vote. whilst the business of government trundles on for now, deciding who walks through this door as prime minister in june is in your hands. our assistant political editor, norman smith, is in westminster. and they are off. they are. this is mr corbyn‘s big pitch, his attempt to ship the narrative of the selection and he was to move it away from trees may‘s chosen theme of brexit and presented as a contest between the establishment and the people with labour and jeremy corbyn standing up to what he says is a rigged system, the cosy elite, the city, the media, the tax dodgers, unscrupulous business, bosses who leech of people on zero hours contracts. it is the antiestablishmentjeremy contracts. it is the antiestablishment jeremy corbyn, the samejeremy antiestablishment jeremy corbyn, the same jeremy corbyn we antiestablishment jeremy corbyn, the samejeremy corbyn we have known for many years, but a message which clearly delighted his audience in the hall. the real question is whether it is a message that will resonate with a broader electorate, whether there is genuinely an appetite for the sort of anti—establishment politics espoused by mr corbyn. his aides believe that there is and they point to donald trump‘s victory, they pointed to the uncertainty of the french elections, they point to the brexit referendum as evidence of this desire for change, this despondency with conventional politics. the hope is thatjeremy corbyn conventional politics. the hope is that jeremy corbyn can conventional politics. the hope is thatjeremy corbyn can ride that we have here and it can propel him to victory as it did propel him to victory as it did propel him to victory in the two leadership contests when he trounced to very conventional candidates. i think the danger is that this is a general election. it is not an internal labour leadership contest. you are dealing with a very different and larger electorate and the question is whether people really are interested in mr corbyn‘s desire to bring up the rooms and tear down the elite or whether they are interested in much more every mundane issues around their mortgages, around schools and those sorts of things. he didn‘t mention brexit. that is at the heart of theresa may‘s campaign. she immediately started to tackle theissue she immediately started to tackle the issue of migration. it is quite noticeable. mr corbyn does not mention brexit. he did not really when he did a stump speech in croydon yesterday and today he only mentioned it when challenged by reporters. it was interesting the hostility and anger directed at the media during mr corbyn‘s speech. there was a moment when he appeared to leave open the option that labour might actually go with a second referendum. his aides later squashed that idea because i think they realised that would just add further confusion as to what the position is on brexit. at the moment, they seem to be in all sorts of difficulties, pummelled by brexit supporters who feel they are not strong enough in making the case for brexit, pummelled by prominent supporters who feel they are not strong enough infighting theresa may over brexit. they are still in a difficulty over brexit and no wonder theresa may wa nted brexit and no wonder theresa may wanted to keep the focus on that issue. just looking at the row within unite, the battle for the leadership. one person has been suspended and doesn‘t know why. there is a parallel with the argument with len mccluskey and was going on in the labour party. this is fascinating. here we have the election for the most powerful union position in the country, a position which is pivotal to jeremy position in the country, a position which is pivotal tojeremy corbyn‘s leadership. the votes are now in. they are being validated today. they are counted tomorrow and on the eve of that kind, mr coyne has been suspended for, i understand, the equivalent of bringing the union into disrepute for allegedly making defamatory remarks about len mccluskey. the clear suspicion, i think, of supporters of mr coyne is that this is some sort of attempt to derail his campaign. they are insisting that being suspended from your position as west midlands regional organiser in no way impacts on his eligibility to remain a candidate, but it is possible to see circumstances where, if mr coyne we re circumstances where, if mr coyne were to be successful, and i am told the result is on a knife edge, if he we re the result is on a knife edge, if he were to be successful, it is possible that his suspension might provide grounds for declaring such a victory null and void. we are in very murky territory, but it does seem an extraordinary coincidence that on the eve of the results being counted, the candidate challenging len mccluskey, jeremy corbyn‘s man, is suspended from his position in the union. the prime minister has been visiting a manufacturing business in enfield this afternoon. speaking to reports theresa may said she believed leaving the eu would help lower annual net migration to the tens of thousands. ben wright is in enfield. brexit at the heart of her campaign. yes, that is what she wanted to talk about. visiting a radar manufacturer here in enfield, north london, there is a ct which is incredibly marginal. it is held by labour with a majority of just 1000 and the tories will be eyeing up this seat as the approach polling day. she was asked about jeremy corbyn‘s speech and instead of attacking it for being pretty on the left, it is a rant against the establishment. instead she wanted to talk about the eu and jeremy corbyn not in that speech ruling out a second referendum, even though it, as norman said, aides close to jeremy corbyn have said it will not be in the manifesto. that is not the policy, to have a second referendum. that is and remains the key line of attack going into this election. i asked as well about the conservatives‘s own manifesto which is being worked on now and whether 01’ is being worked on now and whether or not it would include a repeat of their promise to try to bring net migration down to the tens of thousands. i asked would it be in this manifesto? we have been very clear, as i was as secretary for six years, that we have net migration in sustainable numbers. we believe that sustainable numbers. we believe that sustainable numbers. we believe that sustainable numbers are the tens of thousands. obviously, leaving the european union means we can bring in control in terms of people moving from the eu into the uk as well as people from outside the eu coming into the united kingdom. you will have another target? we want to see sustainable net migration. i believe thatis sustainable net migration. i believe that is in the tens of thousands. leaving the european union enables us leaving the european union enables us to control our borders in relation to people coming from the eu as well as those coming from outside the eu. their ego. i think that was confirmation that the tens of thousands target will be in the ma nifesto. of thousands target will be in the manifesto. even though it cost such difficulty for the previous government. clearly the premonition thinks outside the eu there will be more controlled and that target will be achievable. the former ukip mp for clacton, douglas carswell, says he won‘t be standing for re—election. mr ca rswell became independent last month, but now says the eu referendum result means it‘s ‘job done‘ so far as his political career is concerned. scotland‘s first minister, nicola sturgeon, has said labour is ‘unelectable‘ under jeremy corbyn‘s leadership. she clashed with ruth davison in a i’ow she clashed with ruth davison in a row over child tax credit reform. the so—called rape clause which mean women who were ripped out to prove their third child was born as a result of this in order to qualify foran result of this in order to qualify for an exemption. rival msp ‘s javid schum at the conservative leader in scotla nd schum at the conservative leader in scotland after she refused to condemn because when nicola sturgeon asked whether she agreed it utterly abhorrent. let‘s go to our scotland correspondent who is outside hollywood. these two women no holds barred. these two women no holds barredm was really quite robust in the chamber in the parliament behind me during first minister‘s questions. there was a protest outside as well over that issue of welfare reforms by the uk government. what was interesting is that while first minister‘s questions is always robust and lively, four of the leaders of the main parties here we re leaders of the main parties here were united at the front of that protest opposing those welfare reforms. we saw the leaders of the snp, the greens, the liberal democrats and labour all coming together to oppose that so—called rape clause. that is by the uk government. it did see those robust exchanges in first minister‘s questions with ruth davison greeted by course of shame in the chamber after she refused to condemn the policy. ruth davison, scottish conservative leader in turn said it was the nationalist who were being shameful in her words, pouring negativity on the country as part of their election campaign and she said nicola sturgeon, the scottish first minister, if she didn‘t like the two tax policy, she could choose to change it. nicola sturgeon said that it was only the snp, she argued, who could oppose an increasingly hardline conservative government. because of the unelectability of labour, scotland faces the prospect of an unfettered, out—of—control tory government, and we know the damage that can do to scotland. to our budget, to the vulnerable, to pensions, to our economy. so that's the choice for scotland. vote snp to make sure that scotland's voice is heard, and that scotland has protection against the tories. the leader of scottish labour claimed that it suited the snp for the conservatives to stay in power. she suggested the only thing the snp car about is having another referendum and willie rennie from the liberal democrat chose to focus on europe and called on the snp to clarify their position on europe, which he suggested is getting slightly softer. on the issue of europe, of course we had been expecting nicola sturgeon to set out how she proposed to progress her plans for a second independence referendum over the coming weeks. i think it is not clear if that will happen at all now that a snap election has been called. the green party has launched what it calls its ‘boldest‘ election campaign ever. the party set out its goals in bristol, where it hopes to take the bristol west seat from labour with current mep molly scott—cato. it set out its vision for young people and also called for the voting age to be lowered to 16. co—leader caroline lucas, the party‘s only mp, said the greens would continue to tackle brexit, the environment and affordable housing. if you are a young person trying to get your foot on the housing ladder, especially in a place like bristol or brighton, it is a nightmare. we need to have genuinely affordable housing, notjust a government that changes the definition of that. we know it is not delivering. the need for the green party has never been greater. if you want to cast a vote that is opposed to an extreme brexit, that is standing up for a real investment in public services and a more equal society and will always put the environment and climate change at the heart of all our policies, the only way to do it nationally is to vote green. the only way to do it in bristol west is to vote for the wonderful molly. and you can keep up to date with all the latest on the election on the bbc website at bbc.co.uk/news. jeremy corbyn pledges to challenge what he calls a rigged system and said the election result was not a foregone conclusion. the premise to reiterate commitment for net migration to fall into the tens of thousands for britain leaving the european union. jerod coyne who is challenging benat auzqui as leader of the unite union has been suspended from his post as regional secretary. andy murray has been knocked out of the monte carlo masters, beaten in the third round by alberto bueno school is. it was his first term and for over a month after an elbow injury. the former aston villa defender is in hospital after collapsing at the durham training run. the 44—year—old coach the under 23 side at the club. and manchester united faced and tonight in the europa league quarterfinals. the tie is balanced at 1—1 after the first leg. i will have a full update in the next 15 minutes. the parents of a four month old baby who suffered multiple injuries, including a0 rib fractures, have been found guilty of causing or allowing her death, but cleared of murder. the old bailey was told that jeffrey wiltshire and rosalin baker had tried to cover up the death of their daughter imani by pretending she‘d been taken ill on a bus in east london. they‘ve been told by thejudge to expect a substantial prison sentence. richard lister reports. roslyn biggar and jeffrey wiltshire, the parent of four—month—old imani, whose violent death they tried to cover up. whose violent death they tried to cover up. on september 20 last year, bigger was spotted on cctv in a shop near her home in east london carrying a money in a sling. imani‘s face is obscured by a piece of cloth. minutes later we see vulture pushing the other child onto a bus. baker pushing the other child onto a bus. ba ker follows pushing the other child onto a bus. baker follows with the money. the case and does it was a close, which gives her a thumbs up. both parents know imani is already dead. it is not until half an hour later that biggar calls out for help, save her babyis biggar calls out for help, save her baby is unwell. this woman immediately checks on imani and alert other passengers. what the film rushes to tell the driver what is going on. it is still on the phone, but she doesn‘t call 999. another passenger does that. what has happened 7 another passenger does that. what has happened? the baby is losing his life. the jury was told that when medical teams finally examined in money, they found she had been dead for some time and had a string of terrible injuries, a0 rib fractures, a broken wrist and a fractured skull, which is what caused the death. having such a young victim of such an offence is unusual and i think that made it almost more horrendous in a way. a three—month—old child who had spent, who was prematurely born, she spent the first weeks of her life in hospital, where she was safe and the next six weeks must have been misery, to be honest. biggar and butcher were acquitted of murder but found guilty of causing or allowing imani‘s death and the judge, nicholas hilliard, said they were facing a substantial prison sentence. scientists have discovered drugs which may be able to halt the progress of a wide range of degenerative brain diseases, including alzheimer‘s and parkinson‘s. one of them is already safely given to people with depression. the research has been described as potentially a major step forward. our health correspondent, jane dreaper, reports. these pills could hold promise for fighting some of the illnesses we fear the most. scientists now think this drug and another one could reduce the brain shrinkage caused by alzheimer‘s and other diseases. an effective treatment would give hope tojoy watson. i was diagnosed officially at the age of 55. it was actually my birthday. before then i was experiencing symptoms of being clumsy, and it was all put down to depression and stress. but it was quite a relief when i got the diagnosis. i tried to put on a brave face for the other people i have contact with and my family. it‘s almost like living a double life to be honest. one of the drugs is already licensed and used to treat depression. it will take time and trials in many people, before we know whether this can definitely also help prevent the damage to the brain caused by dementia and similar illnesses. but scientists are excited. we aren‘t going to cure these disorders, but if we stop them in their tracks, and we change the way they progress, we will radically change the course and the natural history of diseases like alzheimer‘s disease and other dementias. because people will still be able to hold onto a meaningful quality of life and stay out of institutional care. so far, the research has focused on brain cells in mice, but it is hoped trials in humans will begin soon, because one of the medicines is already on prescription. we can move to testing these in people much faster than we would for other drug discovery processes. although this isn't an overnight process, it's maybe a few years rather than decades before these can be helping people. but some previous drug trials into these brain disorders have ended in disappointment. a lot of hope will be riding on the latest work. let‘s talk about the strategy then of the upcoming general election and what we‘ve seen and heard already today from both the prime minister and jeremy corbyn. now, theresa may has said she won‘t be taking part in any head to head televised debates. with me now to discuss is former adviser to david cameron, sean worth. we have talked about this before. do you think there is a softening in the camp toward this idea of a full debate? they probably don't want to have one, because given the comparative advantage theresa may already has overjeremy corbyn in terms of the appeal ratings, perceived competence, authority and all that, jeremy corbyn doesn‘t have to do all that, jeremy corbyn doesn‘t have todoa all that, jeremy corbyn doesn‘t have to do a lot in terms of performance to do a lot in terms of performance to get a win and nobody roots for a dominant person in a head—to—head. they are good for the underdog. it is for her to lose and that will translate into votes, as it did for nick clegg in 2010 and ed miliband in the last election a bit when he was a big underdog. he seemed to come out of what were not only not fantastic performances, but he got credit for them in the way david cameron did not. theresa may is probably in the same position. what i think they should do is take part, perhaps not only one on one faces or with the public, but a professional journalist grilling them each. i think that would suit are a lot more thanjeremy think that would suit are a lot more than jeremy corbyn. think that would suit are a lot more thanjeremy corbyn. without bias, whenjeremy thanjeremy corbyn. without bias, when jeremy corbyn thanjeremy corbyn. without bias, whenjeremy corbyn has tried to talk about policy and so on with a professional politicaljournalist, he is often found the policy unravels to be kind. theresa may is perhaps stronger. i would go for that format is out with them but we will have to wait and see. brexit at the heart of this campaign so far. she has been looking at migration, looking at the issue of brexit. jeremy corbyn doesn‘t mention it at all and is going on traditional labour policies. the first thing is that it labour policies. the first thing is thatitis labour policies. the first thing is that it is strong territory for the conservative party in the way it isn‘t for labour. the yet to form a ha rd isn‘t for labour. the yet to form a hard position on it and it is difficult for them because the referendum did split their heartlands down the middle. if you remember the remaining and brexit voters in libertarians, a log of labour voters went against what was then the party position. —— voters in labour areas. for theresa may, issues like immigration, border control, control of our money, control, control of our money, control of laws, these are things, even though she backed remain at the time of the referendum, she was in her cabinet and it was her responsibility she felt, but since then she has had a clear line on brexit means brexit. here is what i will do. of course she is pushing for that campaign message. jeremy corbyn says it is not a foregone conclusion. he can say he has been written off before and come through. he has. all he has a very strong, ha rd core he has. all he has a very strong, hard core support in the labour party who will never vote for anybody else and he has and he has done well with the labour movement, but they are never going to vote for another party. that is the qualifier at would prefer that. the more theresa may can run a campaign which focuses on jeremy theresa may can run a campaign which focuses onjeremy corbyn himself and his personality, his grip of the issues, his perceived competence going forward, the more those other swing voters, and what she will appeal to them. we see disconnect between the movement and the parliamentary party. they appear at this stage, and why wouldn‘t they, to be all on the same song sheet, if you like. how fractures could that be in the coming weeks?” you like. how fractures could that be in the coming weeks? i was thinking about that on the way over. if there is anything that will unite a party that is fractured it is a general election and a chance to fight with the tories. i would hope they dislike the tories more than their own leader, the ones who would like to see him replaced. this is a chance, if they do not believe they will win, this is a chance they might replace that later. i think the fighting of a general election is probably good for the party. we have the prospect of... if you lose, if you look at the proms, the tories we re if you look at the proms, the tories were 20 odd points ahead. they are not ina were 20 odd points ahead. they are not in a good position. those that are worried aboutjeremy corbyn as leader, and have been several who have been vocal, there have been resignations, they have a chance to see the problem, as they see removed when he loses the election, if that happens. as i say, the rest will unite around fighting the tories. tell us honestly, when the official line is we do not listen to pose, we do not take any notice, what really happens when paul and comes up in the run—up to an election?” happens when paul and comes up in the run-up to an election? i have beenin the run-up to an election? i have been ina the run-up to an election? i have been in a general election, in 2005 when michael howard was leader, and we did not expect to win that and there was pulling sure that. it doesn‘t have a massive impact because a campaign is like a bunker mentality. you are fighting the same enemy, fighting for the same goal. hopefully you have good campaign managers and leaders stop lynton crosby will hopefully be involved again. would his happy -- would his tea m again. would his happy -- would his team be happy with that? absolutely. the fact he was there, even though we knew we would lose, even though we knew we would lose, even though we we re we knew we would lose, even though we were killing county cork messages, that governors as a campaign team and nobody worries about the pros there in that atmosphere because you are very focused. it was quite difficult then, but 2015, again, iwasn‘t there a full time, that had the same spirit. he is a fantastic figure. there a full time, that had the same spirit. he is a fantastic figurem is good to see you. a court of gold coins found in a piano has been to create the group declared treasure. it is the largest hoard found. the sovereigns are thought to be worth up to a quarter of £1 million. efforts to chase any claimants have failed so it has been officially declared as a treasure trove. time for a look at the weather, here‘s helen willets. good afternoon. this is probably what people would prefer to see today, all the lovely sunshine, but it has been more limited than in recent days. it is the north east of england and eastern scotland will receive the best of the sunshine. this was earlier on today. quite cloudy. that is because we have weak weather fronts across the country. libby clegg with the occasional shower but it is predominantly drive. three denied, this win will gather and it will bring a change of type as we go through the next 36 hours to call behind it. again, relatively mild through the night. not especially cold. it is more likely to be misty, for the some southern areas first thing in the morning. further north we have near gale force winds, some rain. after the 19 today in eastern scotland, we will do well to reach nine tomorrow. there is a good chance in the south across southern and central areas if we see the breaks in the cloud, that we see the breaks in the cloud, that we could see 15 and 16. considerably cooler further north. that is heading southward this weekend. the dry weather, don‘t get me wrong, with sunshine from most of this. if the —— it. feel colder next iii? ii. gem i551 é¥fijz..,£::fi_1 . w. .. ..... the —— it will feel colder next week. macron this is bbc news at 5 — the headlines: the labour leaderjeremy corbyn‘s vowed to "overturn the rigged system" by putting power and wealth back in the hands of "the people". but of course they do not want us to win, because when we win it is the people, not the powerful, who win. the prime minister reiterates her commitment for net migration falling to the tens of thousands following britain leaving the eu. the man challenging len mccluskey‘s position as head of the unite union, gerard coyne, has been suspended from his post as its west midlands regional secretary. scientists have discovered drugs that may be able to stop alzheimer‘s, parkinson‘s and a wide range of degenerative brain diseases. now let‘s get an update on sports, with olly foster. andy murray says he‘s been pleased with his progress over the past few weeks even though he was knocked out of the monte carlo masters in the third round today. it was his first tournament back after almost five weeks out with an elbow injury. he lost in three sets to the spaniard albert ramos—vinolas. drew savage reports. he is on the way back but the world number one is not where he wants to be just yet. andy murray‘s server was not working perfectly on the second hour of his comeback, but he was good enough to take the first set against albert ramos—vinolas. the spaniard has been a profile many yea rs the spaniard has been a profile many years but has just broken into the top. he was struggling with his own serve, double faulting to put murray for love up. what happened next was a surprise. murray feels he is not quite 100% yet but credit to albert ramos—vinolas. the man from barcelona is a late developer at the age of 29 and days like this make it worthwhile. it‘s not offer new comes up worthwhile. it‘s not offer new comes up from four games down against the world war i. albert ramos—vinolas had the momentum and would not let go. had the momentum and would not let 90- -- had the momentum and would not let go. —— against the world number one. maybe tomorrow or the day after i‘ll be able to look back a little bit and think where i‘m at now from where i was a week ago, my elbow felt pretty good, i served much better today than yesterday, that is only going to get better. so hopefully i will keep going in the right direction. the former aston villa and england defender ugo ehiogu is in hospital after collapsing at ther tottenham training centre. ehiogu, seen here winning the league cup with villa in 1996, coaches totenham‘s under 23‘s side. spurs say the aa—year—old received immediate treatment on site from their medical staff before being transferred to hospital by ambulance. manchester united can secure their place in the semi—finals of the europa league this evening. they play anderlecht at old trafford looking to build on their 1—1 draw from the first leg. captain wayne rooney in the green looks set to return from injury. winning the europa league would guarantee united a place in next season‘s champions league — even if they finish outside the premier league‘s top four. you get this level the motivation has be very— stop we have to equalise at least. i think it is a motivational question because i think we showed in brussels we are a stronger team. the england coach eddiejones has named his squad to tour argentina this summer. he‘s named 15 new caps with the lions accounting for 16 of his regular squad players. it's it‘s exciting. it‘s a great opportunity for us because you do not usually get this opportunity where you can get up bunch of young, enthusiastic and potentially good players into the squad at one time. i see this as an opportunity to really ta ke i see this as an opportunity to really take the side forward. if i can develop three or four of these quys can develop three or four of these guys to be better than the lions quys guys to be better than the lions guys it has been an enormously successful tour. i think we can. day five of the world snooker chanpionship at sheffield‘s crucible theatre and the 2015 winner stuart binghgam has started his second round match against last season‘s quarterfinalist kyran wilson. wilson made a brilliant start in this one. he led 5—0 thanks to a couple of decent breaks. the former world champion fought back after the interval, 13 frames in a row, trails and 5—3. they will resume tomorrow. neil

you can keep up to date with all those stories on the bbc sport website. and i‘ll have more in sportsday at 6:30pm. more now onjeremy corbyn‘s speech this morning, as he vowed to overturn the rigged system. mr corbyn said he wanted to put wealth back in the hands of the people, and that a labour government would not play by the rules of the establishment. we can speak to dawn butler, labour mp for brent central, whojoined jeremy corbyn for his speech this morning. you all seemed fired up. while it's the start of the general election and it is a chance for the labour party to start talking about policies and putting our policies forward to the public. so how do you overturn a rigged system as he described it. severalthings. overturn a rigged system as he described it. several things. jeremy corbyn has always been fighting the establishment, he spent a0 years doing that, he has a track record of it, but let‘s take one area, such as education. schools need money, we know that. schools in brent for insta nce know that. schools in brent for instance are losing about £700 per pupil. instead of the prime minister investing in schools she is deciding to have a vanity project and invest in grammar schools. that is wrecking the education system because you are creating an establishment for the elite few. whereas those people like my students in brent need the money. these are all examples of a system that if the labour party becomes the government we would scrap grammar schools. we would have a fairer system and a fairer education system for many children and notjust a few children. jeremy corbyn was putting about putting power and wealth back in the hands of the people. it was less about education and it was a wider issue as far as he was concerned. it is about all systems. in the hands of many people, in all systems. we talk about a labour party, a labour government, in sourcing, making sure that for insta nce sourcing, making sure that for instance the railways, the railways come back into public ownership, putting the power back into the people‘s hands. the money goes back into the treasury rather than going into the treasury rather than going into private companies for them to make profit over people. this is all about breaking down systems that stop people progressing in society, and that is what the labour party is about. that is what the labour party has always been about. so nationalising southern rail would be in the manifesto? yes, we have already talked about putting southern rail back into public ownership, re—nationalising. why should private companies make money and then people who are travelling every day to go to work have a policy system of travel? why? why can we not run a system where the public runs the system and the profit goes back into the system and back into the treasury purse and back into the treasury purse and back out to the many, so that everybody benefits for it? back into the nhs for example. why are we privatising so many sections of the nhs? there is no need. jeremy corbyn says he will put a stop to that on day one and there will be no privatisation of the nhs. it will come back so that you and i benefit rather than a privileged few benefiting from an nhs that is free for everyone at the point of need. you have already resigned from the shadow cabinet once over his decision to back the government in triggering article 50. although you signed his ballot paperfor the leadership, you wanted andy burnham to win. would you rather andy burnham was one running? would he have a better chance? we are in the position we are in. we are fighting a general election, now is the time to talk about the policies jeremy talked about today. i can‘t talk about them all because our manifesto will come out next week. now is the time to talk about the labour party as we are, underjeremy corbyn‘s leadership, and what we would look like in government. that is what the people watching want to know, that is what people want to know when i knock on their doors. what are you going to do? will you make sure, for instance, those people currently on minimum wage will be paid £10 per hour? yes. laban government will ensure you are paid £10 and hour. what about zero contracts? we will ban the exploitative zero our contracts. people want to know what a labour government would do in power, and that is what we will talk about. what you make of theresa may? she is concentrating on exit, jeremy corbyn seems to be avoiding that. is that how this can‘t campaign will be fought? i don't think he is avoiding theissue, fought? i don't think he is avoiding the issue, he is saying is not the only issue. he is saying theresa may wa nts to only issue. he is saying theresa may wants to make this general election all about brexit because she wants to avoid talking about all the other issues, all the things that are going wrong under her watch, all the crises that are being made under her watch at number ten. she wants to avoid talking about that. jeremy says, look, because this election has been called underfalse premise, triggering article 50 has already been decided, that has already been decided, we can talk about brexit but let‘s talk about everything else because, at the end of the day, those people who are panicking right now, coming into my surgery, struggling to make ends meet, having to use food banks, it is notjust about brexit. it is about everyday living. that is what people want to know. what will we do for everyday people to make sure they can live their lives without having to visit food banks on a daily basis to make ends meet? that is people who are working, doctors, nurses, all finding it difficult because of the policies that this government has been implementing. we have become more divided society under theresa may‘s government. she might be throwing this general election in the mix to try to hide that, but it is ourjob as the labour party to make sure we highlight the failures and the broken promises over the seven and the broken promises over the seve n yea rs and the broken promises over the seven years of theresa may, ‘s government. she's only been in power for one of those will stop wondering whatjeremy corbyn for one of those will stop wondering what jeremy corbyn means for one of those will stop wondering whatjeremy corbyn means when he says he wants to put power and wealth back in the hands of the people. who are the people? that‘s you and me, isn‘t it? people. who are the people? that‘s you and me, isn't it? yes. and wouldn‘t it be nice to feel we had some power rather than the power being taken away from us? theresa may thinks she can dictate what this election is going to be about and how people are going to vote. you should never take the electorate for granted. that is one thing, those people who have taken to streets over her government over the last few months, on doctors and nurses‘s pay, on universal credits, all those people will have their voices heard. it's people will have their voices heard. it‘s about putting power back into the hands of the people so we have control. why should only be a few people, a few elite, a few big businesses, a few have all the decision—making powers while the rest of us have to suffer? do you admire her? theresa may? no. i think she is extremely irresponsible. she has called this election, she says, because, and the labour party save she comes up with a bad deal should we will vote against it. and we should. if she can negotiate a good deal then it is our —— a bastille that it deal then it is our —— a bastille thatitis deal then it is our —— a bastille that it is our detail... we said we would not have a second referendum. that is not the same as voting against the deal if it is a bad deal for the country. we have said that. theresa may said she does not like that idea. so she‘s going to the country to have a general election. this at a time when people are struggling, we asked spending hundreds of millions of pounds on an unnecessary general election. but it has been called and it is time for us has been called and it is time for us to take our policies to the country and around the country and all parts of the country. would you rather andy burnham was leading? laughter i would rather we had a labour government and not a conservative one. i would rather we had labour policies and not conservative policies and not conservative policies that divide our country. every single policy this conservative government has put forward has caused stress and anguish to my constituents, and many other constituents around the country. i would rather we had a labour government, because when labour government, because when labour are labour government, because when labourare in labour government, because when labour are in power they make real change for society and for the many. they make changes in education, they make changes to the nhs, they make changes that matter to many people‘s lives. i would rather we had a labour government. thank you very much forjoining us this afternoon. this is bbc news at 5 — the

to have stopped during the formula four race at donington park in leicestershire. our sports correspondent joe wilson reports. 17 years old, and his life changed forever. billy monger, one of britain‘s most talented racing drivers, was competing at donington park when he collided with a stationary car at 120 miles an hour. airlifted to hospital at the queen‘s medical centre in nottingham, his lower legs were removed in surgery. billy monger‘s talent was well—known, even when he was at primary school. at age nine he was featured on blue peter. you are amazing. how fast where you going? 55 mph. his racing team is raising money to help fund his recovery. the total is already over half a million, with lewis hamilton and jenson button amongst supporters. billy has been communicating with his team principal in hospital. he is aware of what‘s happened. he‘s obviously a very positive lad. the first thing he started to do was to work out how to use a clutch with his hand. motor racing with prosthetic legs is possible. it is what david birrell dolls. it is what david birrell does. david birrell lost his legs after he was injured while serving in afghanistan, and has offered

had been settled out of court. crowd: fire bill o'reilly! earlier this week one former colleague said the host regularly made passes at her when no—one was watching and described her as "hot chocolate". when major sponsors started to pull their adverts his position weakened further, and now the parent company, 21st century fox, has confirmed that he has been fired. we are so happy that he

the french election kicks off this weekend, with four leading candidates vying to become the next president. the first round of voting takes place this sunday — with the two candidates progressing to the final round of voting on the seventh april. —— on the 7th of may. the candidates are: the centrist, pro european emannuel macron, an ex—banker who has never held elected office. he was an economic adviser to president hollande. jean—luc melenchon and francois fillon are two more of the main candidates. jean—luc melenchon leads the hard left in france, backed by the french communist party. francois fillon was a leading candidate in race , but scandal hit the former french prime minister, which has derailed his campaign. and finally, front nationale leader marine le pen. the right wing candidate who is tipped to make the final round of voting along with emmannuel macron. well, with me now is christian fraser from paris. thank you. there cannot be many better backdrops for in evening broadcast. the backdrop belies the mood in france because there is a sense of insurrection in france at the moment. you can telljust by looking at those polls you talked about there. think about the founding of the fifth republic. since 1958 it has been a 2—party system that has dominated in france. the socialists and the republicans. looking at the polls now there are three of the top four who are classed as outsiders, marine le pen, jean—luc melenchon would be seen as outside and it could be anyone of that gets through. it is even possible we could have the far left versus the far right. think of the recognitions. tonight the candidates will be appearing on french prime time television, their last opportunity to squeeze the pips out of this campaign. if you look at the way the french electorate is talking and thinking at the moment, there is still around one in four french people undecided or saying they might switch their opinion in the final few days of the campaign. tonight they will be on television, they will each appear for 15 minutes each, quite a marathon for the electorate, tomorrow will be the final campaigns and then we have a period of the weekend where people get to sit and stew on what they have heard. an extraordinary campaign. a little bit, as well, the emotions have spilled overfrom time to time particularly for francois fillon who everybody thought in january would be the winner. then along came the fake job scandal, he has given an interview today and walks out of the interview saying it is not for the media to pick the questions. is going to be quite interesting in the last few days. don‘t back against francois fillon because when the french go to the voting booths they will look at the people in front of them and ask who has the experience. and maybe it is him they will opt for. there will be live coverage of the results of that first round of voting this sunday at 6:30pm. everyone knows that cycling is good for you but now it is believed it could reduce other health risks. is this the best way to live longer? laura hopes so. she cycles five whilst a work in bristol every morning and then five miles home again. how do you feel cycling to work helps you? it wakes me up in the morning, getting geared up for the morning, getting geared up for the day, puts me in a good mood, is a good way to manage stress as well because when you live in the city, busy lifestyle, it‘s great cause it gets rid of all the stress that can build. some people say riding a bike is very stressful and that is why they do not do it. if i had to cycle on main roads for the whole journey i would find it stressful. but i can use the cycle track. scientists from the university of glasgow looked at the university of glasgow looked at the health of a quarter of a million commuters over five years to examine the benefits of cycling. they found those using pedal power had a a5% lower risk of developing cancer and a6% lower threat of cardiovascular disease. that is compared with people driving using public transport. we'd make it easier for people to site full, increase cycle lanes, cycle city hire schemes, showers at work, a whole host of things to make it easier. if we can get more people on bikes we will improve public health just like get more people on bikes we will improve public healthjust like in amsterdam and copenhagen. cycling groups say if we follow the lead of those european cities we could save money on health care because few of us money on health care because few of us would become seriously ill. although of course cycling can also lead to more accidents and injuries. researchers say walking to work also has some benefits but not as many. they say for commuters like laura cycling is especially good because it fits into the daily routine. time for a look at the weather. here‘s helen willetts. hello. we‘ve had some sunshine today, fairly limited. where we have enjoyed the sunshine temperatures have been 18 degrees, 19 little further north. the sunshine disappeared in the south. cloud is moving southwards. it will stay mostly dry through the night. not especially cold, could be some mist orfog by morning. innes already by morning we have notjust rain but strong to gale wins across northern scotla nd strong to gale wins across northern scotland and the northern isles. north—east of england and north scotla nd north—east of england and north scotland quite different. in this south we could see 15 or 16. behind the cold weather front it is colder and that cold air is heading southwards this weekend. there is still quite strength the sunshine. if you are in the sun it will feel quite pleasant but there will be some rain in the north on sunday. taking on the elites — jeremy corbyn spells out his pitch for the election. the labour leader said big business would pay more tax, and he promised a £10 minimum wage. it‘s the establishment versus the people. it‘s our historic duty to make sure the people prevail. this election is about ensuring that we have strong and stable leadership in this country in the national interest. so, as the battle lines become clearer, we‘ll get reaction from voters. also tonight: revving up — why the world‘s leading financial organisation is forecasting greater global economic growth. hopes of a step forward in tackling dementia. researchers are looking at new ways to use existing drugs. the teenage racing driver who‘s lost both legs after a crash. formula 1 stars help to raise more than £500,000.
