start with the telegraph, laura. labour faces historic party split, don't spit your sides laughing.” labour faces historic party split, don't spit your sides laughing. i am not quite doing that. this is a story exposing yet again the bloodbath occurring in the labour party at the moment. jeremy corbyn seen as party at the moment. jeremy corbyn seen as s0 party at the moment. jeremy corbyn seen as so divisive that even his own party don't want him. should a landslide happened, and i think that perhaps labour mps would like a landslide happened, then they can maybe push to get corbin out. but if it doesn't happen, the story says that already moderate labour candidates are in talks with potential donors to set up or at least sit independently under a progressive banner. as we have known for some time, because they already tried to get him out with a no—confidence vote, things are not all rosy in the labour garden. you did mention the word allegedly there! christopher hope put this together, and a long night of the paper is here, where is your sourcing, christopher. i can't see any quotes. i was an investigative journalist for many years, if i put out something without a tribute in yet, it would never have hit the air. here, this is a really damning piece saying 101 people are setting up piece saying 101 people are setting upa new piece saying 101 people are setting up a new progressive party. he uses words like rabbiting and desperate, lam words like rabbiting and desperate, i am sorry, christopher, this is a bit desperate. i think we know the labour party are in a bad way. there is an election, of course he is hammering the nails, it is hisjob to do, to tell the people that this is the opposition in complete disarray and didn't even want to sit under a corbin leadership if he continues on. —— a jeremy corbyn leadership. i would still love fairness in the world. 0k, leadership. i would still love fairness in the world. ok, let's go to the financial times. main ma nifesto to the financial times. main manifesto chief held talks with former miller band aid. —— you might be surprised if they didn't talk to each other. the tory ma nifesto didn't talk to each other. the tory manifesto chief talking to a former ed miliband aid? 7 manifesto chief talking to a former ed miliband aid? ? ed miliband didn't do very well. this is a man cold lord glassman. i am not awfully keen on titles, apparently they are mirroring pledges. and yes, the one being mirrored all over the press todayis being mirrored all over the press today is about energy prices and the tories are going to cap them. when ed miliband was in charge, he was talking about a price freeze. then he turned it into a cap. but this is a specific attempt to park tory ta nks a specific attempt to park tory tanks on the labour lawn. you could put it like that, or you could say, these are quite sensible things they are both talking about. i have been talking about energy prices for about 14 years on television. laura, is this a sign of a more moderate labour party of the party? are they trying to reach out beyond jeremy corbyn? it obviously is theresa may trying to park tanks on labour lawn is. it is red hey. it remain so. it is. it is red hey. it remain so. it isa is. it is red hey. it remain so. it is a silly policy. broadly, i think theresa may is moving in the right direction. but an interesting quote is when she says, "what matters is doing what you believe to be right, as opposed to being ideological." but she is the prime minister, or she lives to be the prime do, but that doesn't make her an oracle. believing you are doing something right isn't that important. what is important is what works. i'm afraid... best ideas from wherever they are. both are conservative ideas. not this one! and she criticised this policy if you years ago. it is a major inconsistency, it isa ago. it is a major inconsistency, it is a silly policy, it is going to hit pension funds, it it could hit investments, and could hitjobs. yes, there are ways to help low income families and hard—working families, but i remain unconvinced that this is the way to do it. the best way for the energy companies is to say, "make the bills so that we can understand them. " to say, "make the bills so that we can understand them." switching is a way to increase competition, not this. 0k, 0k, 0k... way to increase competition, not this. 0k, 0k, ok... i am going to interrupt because we have some breaking news. the director of the fbi, james coney, has been fined. there is a search for a new permanent fbi director —— fired. it will begin immediately. i am seen what information i can pick up here. he has been very controversial, not least because of the details that he released concerning hillary clinton's e—mails, literally weeks before the presidential election last year. and she has cited that publicly in the last 3—4 days that that was a contributory factor to her losing the election. let me just read you this statement from the white house from the press secretary sean spicer today," donald trump informed james coney that he has been terminated and removed from office. president reagan on the clear recommendations of both the deputy attorney—general and the attorney—general —— president trump acted on the clear recommendations. very interesting to see who gets picked to lead it instead. wasn't a woman in court this week criticising trump? he appeared before the committee last week. he appeared before a house committee looking into allegations into president trump's during his campaign links to the russians. but this is supposed to bea the russians. but this is supposed to be a nonpartisanjob. he still had yea rs to be a nonpartisanjob. he still had years to go on his term. the suggestion that he has been fired, we don't know particularly or exactly the reasons for him being fired, but this is quite an interesting development in the last few minutes. a big story in the states. absolutely huge. let's get back to matters here. millions miss out on. it pension. this is a story the i have run. it affects about 90,000 people, but what happened for these individuals, they were contracting out without having been told, it seems. that is the government's full. they were contracting out in their working life, so they played produced national insurance. it was probably theiremployers! national insurance. it was probably their employers! exactly. in the end, they were playing less national insurance at the time, meaning they don't have sufficient national insurance. so it puts the government ina insurance. so it puts the government in a difficult position in terms of whether they should pay out to the 90,000 even though they don't have theirfull national 90,000 even though they don't have their full national insurance contributions over and above others who have. it seems that it isn't the employees's full. we would need to know more as to why they were contracted out, why they didn't know, and where any employer is at full. people raise children, like you at the moment, who said whether they don't get affected. there are lots of reasons why people might be missing out on this. it sounds like it could be terribly unfair. official figures are staggering about how many people could be missing out. let's move on to the times, a judge attacks inhumanity of ca re times, a judge attacks inhumanity of care homes that force apart frail pensioners. there was a lovely story in the news the other night about a couple who were terminal. she was dying of cancer, and the hospice put them in together. they both died, one shortly after the other. what thisjudge is saying is, where is the humanity in what is happening when we split people up? you have a funny bit that you have picked up. it is in the daily telegraph, saint james mumby was giving a lecture to social workers, saying they should be slowed to split up elderly couples —— sirjames mumby. this idea, doing everything by the book, where you automatically have to remove an elderly person because their home is unsafe to perhaps a nursing home where they don't know anybody. they said, if they had been living in that home for 50 years, you should leave them there. you should leave your box ticking aside. he did say that he was against removing people to nursing homes, the artificial "you must be happy all the time" is something he was objecting to. you don't have to be happy all the time. indeed, you are not forced to do it. we all know what he is saying. the front page of the daily mail as well, phil and trees —— theresa. there they are on the one show. "it was love at first sight" mr theresa tells all on tv. was the whole point to humanise and ta ke was the whole point to humanise and take a bit of the iciness way that theresa can exhibit. the suggestion is it has worked. it is all over the front pages of several newspapers, probably the right—wing press. i front pages of several newspapers, probably the right—wing press. lam not sure the mirror is going to turn up not sure the mirror is going to turn up with it on their front page. i am glad he reminded me about the recycling. he puts the binder, that is the important thing. recycling. he puts the binder, that is the important thinglj recycling. he puts the binder, that is the important thing. i worry about this getting gigantic and lovely publicity for an election, jeremy corbyn is not turning up with his wife. he will be on the same programme. he will be there.|j watched it and i thought it was very good. they seemed like a really decent couple. they have been married for 37 years, and that alone, to me, is something that is very admirable. they are obviously the very supportive of each other. focus him supporting her, but they area focus him supporting her, but they are a good couple to each other. they seem a decent couple, why shouldn't they give the interview? all the leaders will be interviewed on the one show. that is the key. jeremy corbyn will be on there asbo. and theresa may is a good cook, according to phil. thank you for looking at those stories. —— on there as well. don't forget, you can see the front pages of all the papers online and on the bbc news website, it is therefore you seven days a week will stop if you have missed the programme, any evening, you can see it all again online player. thank you for watching. goodbye. clear skies this evening and tonight. and a pretty chilly one on the way. the first thing tomorrow morning, there could be cross frost around ina morning, there could be cross frost around in a number of areas, especially outside town. we are losing the cloud that has been studied across central and eastern areas of the uk. it means when state is looking very promising across most of the uk. here is the weather for the rest of the night. you can see clear skies across the uk, apart from the far north of scotland. maybe a few spots of rain. city to bridges in rural areas, two or three to greece, cold enough for grass frost. tomorrow, sunshine all around, almost. —— two or three degrees. most of the country, cloud and spots of rain in the northern isles. temperatures responding into the high teens in some areas. thursday and friday, increasing cloud. by the time we get to friday, we could have thunder and lightning. some downpours in one or two areas. this is bbc news. the headlines at 11:00: james comey, director of the fbi, has been removed from office, according to a statement from the white house. drayton manor theme park in staffordshire will remain closed tomorrow after an 11—year—old girl died in an accident. meanwhilejeremy corbyn has launched labour's election campaign, but has refused to confirm he'd take the uk out of the european union. the conservatives have promised to cap energy tariffs if they win the election, claiming 17 million households will save money. coming up on newsnight, i in county durham, one of three locations. they may just tell us what could durham, one of three locations. they mayjust tell us what could happen on election day.
