Hey everyone, Leah here with today's Newsround.

:00:00.:00:00.

Who's going to win Britain's Got Talent 2017?

:00:00.:00:13.

And talented toddlers with a need for speed.

:00:14.:00:24.

But first Ariana Grande made a surprise visit to fans in hospital

:00:25.:00:27.

who were injured in the terror attack at her concert in Manchester

:00:28.:00:30.

It's all ahead of a benefit gig in the city tomorrow.

:00:31.:00:37.

Recovering, fans like eight-year-old Lily here couldn't contain her

:00:38.:00:52.

excitement when Ariana the star that means so much to her, came to visit.

:00:53.:00:55.

The children had been getting ready for bed,

:00:56.:00:57.

when she arrived bringing gifts and signing autographs.

:00:58.:00:59.

We were the last sort of room on the ward that she came to visit

:01:00.:01:02.

so I think the excitement was building and building

:01:03.:01:05.

and then she came skipping in and as you can see,

:01:06.:01:07.

And here, in the city centre, a memorial of flowers and messages

:01:08.:01:11.

It's become a place where people have come to remember the 22 people

:01:12.:01:18.

who lost their lives during last month's terror attack

:01:19.:01:21.

The singer arrived back in the UK yesterday and headed

:01:22.:01:26.

And tomorrow she, along with other stars, will perform

:01:27.:01:39.

at the One Love Manchester concert at Old Trafford cricket

:01:40.:01:41.

ground to raise money for the victims and their families.

:01:42.:01:45.

The British and Irish Lions have played the first game

:01:46.:01:47.

of their ten-game tour of New Zealand.

:01:48.:01:53.

They played the Provincal barbarians, a team made up of super

:01:54.:01:56.

rugby players and it didn't all go to plan, conceding this try early

:01:57.:01:59.

on but they did fight back to eventually win 13-7.

:02:00.:02:03.

Next, we're just days away from the big vote

:02:04.:02:06.

And although you guys can't vote in the General Election on June 8th,

:02:07.:02:15.

the choices made will have a big impact on your lives.

:02:16.:02:18.

There are loads of different political parties competing

:02:19.:02:21.

with each other, so giving you the low down on the main ones

:02:22.:02:24.

and here's a quick look at the UK Independence Party.

:02:25.:02:26.

The United Kingdom Independence Party - or Ukip -

:02:27.:02:30.

Past leaders include Nigel Farage, who campaigned successfully last

:02:31.:02:37.

year for the UK to leave the club of countries called

:02:38.:02:39.

That had always been the party's number one aim.

:02:40.:02:44.

At the last general election in 2015, Ukip won almost 3.9 million

:02:45.:02:46.

votes but only got one MP, Douglas Carswell.

:02:47.:02:49.

But then he quit the party so they were back down to zero MPs.

:02:50.:02:52.

He played youth football for Tranmere Rovers and spent

:02:53.:03:03.

Ukip believe in strong controls on immigration,

:03:04.:03:09.

the number of people from outside the UK who come to live here.

:03:10.:03:12.

And they want a ban on face coverings in public places.

:03:13.:03:15.

The UK Independence Party say that even though the UK is now

:03:16.:03:18.

leaving the European Union, they are needed now more than ever

:03:19.:03:21.

And you can find out about the UK's other main political parties

:03:22.:03:27.

So there are loads of parties hoping to get a vote but how

:03:28.:03:34.

Follow me, I'm about to take you on a journey to vote

:03:35.:03:40.

So, on 8th June on election day your school might have one

:03:41.:03:46.

of these signs up saying polling station and what that means is that

:03:47.:03:49.

They're also in churches and community centres like this one.

:03:50.:03:54.

First off, adults get their name ticked off a list.

:03:55.:04:07.

It's called a ballot paper and it lists all the names

:04:08.:04:15.

They're all from different political parties and all want to be

:04:16.:04:20.

But first we have got to head to a super-secret booth so that no

:04:21.:04:26.

I grab the pencil, scroll down the list and put an X

:04:27.:04:33.

No emojis, though, they might not be counted.

:04:34.:04:45.

Then you fold your paper, you put it in the ballot box and...

:04:46.:04:49.

At 10.00pm all across the UK the doors at polling

:04:50.:04:52.

The boxes will be whisked off, all the votes will be

:04:53.:04:56.

counted and the person with the most votes wins.

:04:57.:05:01.

And we are just a few hours away from another big competition,

:05:02.:05:04.

Tonight ten acts will battle it out live on TV, including a wildcard act

:05:05.:05:13.

You have been telling us who you think is going

:05:14.:05:16.

Thank you for all those comments guys.

:05:17.:05:38.

It's time for Lithuania's fastest toddler competition.

:05:39.:05:41.

The aim, to make it to the end of a five-metre long carpet first.

:05:42.:05:47.

Obviously, parents used every trick in the book to entice them there.

:05:48.:05:50.

Although not everyone was successful.

:05:51.:05:51.

Well, that's all we have got for you right now.
