Hello and welcome to One Hundred Days Plus.

:00:10.:00:11.

In two days, Brits will vote in an election that was never

:00:12.:00:15.

With just over one day of campaigning left,

:00:16.:00:18.

this is a real contest with unpredictable results.

:00:19.:00:22.

With the race tight, both Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn

:00:23.:00:24.

are in their final push with their final appeals to voters.

:00:25.:00:30.

Every vote for me and the Conservatives is a vote to

:00:31.:00:36.

strengthen my hand in those Brexit negotiations. People are determined

:00:37.:00:41.

to show that this election can be won by Labour.

:00:42.:00:45.

a third attacker is named and there are more questions about

:00:46.:00:50.

Also it's another day of Donald Trump taking to Twitter.

:00:51.:00:56.

The President weighs in on the escalating Qatar crisis -

:00:57.:00:59.

saying that isolating the country could be the beginning of the end

:01:00.:01:02.

A US Government contractor leaks a top-secret document from the NSA

:01:03.:01:09.

and it promptly arrested - we'll look at the content

:01:10.:01:11.

Hello, I am Katty Kay in Washington, Christian Fraser is in London.

:01:12.:01:23.

Brits go to the polls in just over 24 hours and an election

:01:24.:01:27.

that was all about Brexit has suddenly veered into security

:01:28.:01:29.

and policing in the wake of Manchester and London.

:01:30.:01:33.

Today third attacker was named as Rachid Redouane. Reports in the

:01:34.:01:40.

Italian press suggest he tried to travel to Syria last year, but was

:01:41.:01:47.

stopped by Italian police. UK officials say Youssef Zaghba was not

:01:48.:01:51.

on their watch list. Authorities in the UK are reviewing their

:01:52.:01:53.

intelligence. One man who thinks authorities

:01:54.:01:59.

are going about it in the wrong Up until 10 days ago

:02:00.:02:03.

he was the Chief Executive of the Association of Police

:02:04.:02:07.

and Crime Commissioners. He was stopped from speaking

:02:08.:02:09.

after the Manchester attack and so he resigned

:02:10.:02:10.

so he could have his say. Do you think Muslim communities in

:02:11.:02:23.

your view are taking enough ownership of this problem? Obviously

:02:24.:02:26.

they're doing as much as they can, but there is more they could do.

:02:27.:02:29.

That is what I have been trying to say. It is also an issue about the

:02:30.:02:35.

state, by that I mean local authorities and local government,

:02:36.:02:40.

are not doing. When it comes to the engagement, as you probably know

:02:41.:02:46.

there is a deradicalisation programme, where people are referred

:02:47.:02:49.

when they become aware of issues about a person and that is being

:02:50.:02:53.

undermined and often deliberately by people. As a result people are being

:02:54.:02:59.

deterred from reporting or signposting people for support and

:03:00.:03:05.

assistance. There is an issue around community leadership, this is where

:03:06.:03:08.

the problem lies with the state, the state tends to talk to the same

:03:09.:03:13.

people and expect a different result and the communities, particularly

:03:14.:03:18.

the Muslim community is very young, the majority is under 25, female and

:03:19.:03:23.

from low income backgrounds, all the leaders the Government want to talk

:03:24.:03:27.

to are male, middle class and over 40 or 50. So they have no real

:03:28.:03:32.

understanding of what is going on in Muslim youth or teenagers or young

:03:33.:03:37.

people and yet they are the ones who are allegedly coming up with

:03:38.:03:43.

solutions to help the Government. The problems are complicated and

:03:44.:03:47.

police and authorities have to triage, because so many people are

:03:48.:03:51.

suspects, but talk about the solutions, you have ideas about who

:03:52.:03:55.

authorities should be talking to in communities, they always say they're

:03:56.:03:59.

talking to community leader, who could they talk to? The best work

:04:00.:04:03.

that is happening in the United Kingdom is Muslim women's groups and

:04:04.:04:09.

Muslim women generally. The groups operate with very little funding and

:04:10.:04:14.

they have access to families and are engaged in communities and not only

:04:15.:04:17.

working on this, but other issues. When they come across a young man or

:04:18.:04:23.

woman who might be being radicalised or questioning their identity, they

:04:24.:04:27.

sit down and work with that person for nothing and ensure the person

:04:28.:04:34.

has support. To my mind, as a doctor I know who works as a GP and in the

:04:35.:04:39.

evening he will spend time working with young girls, maybing them

:04:40.:04:43.

understand what they can -- making them understand what they can

:04:44.:04:47.

achieve in this country. That work is happening under the radar and

:04:48.:04:53.

being done for nothing. But we are expending millions on so-called

:04:54.:04:56.

community leaders who are very good at talking the talk and I have spent

:04:57.:05:01.

many afternoons wasted sit around tables with them and at the end we

:05:02.:05:04.

feel very much better, but the point is the solutions are not there. If

:05:05.:05:12.

you tell your children that it is Haram to wear skirts or wrong to go

:05:13.:05:17.

to concerts or to stand with women in mosques, should we be surprised

:05:18.:05:22.

that young people adopt some of these more mill tants attitudes. --

:05:23.:05:28.

militant attitudes. Most of this information is not coming from

:05:29.:05:32.

parents, but from peers or online. But yes the whole of this, it is not

:05:33.:05:39.

just one issue, I remember one parent after three children

:05:40.:05:42.

disappeared to Syria, said he had done his duty and made sure his

:05:43.:05:49.

daughter didn't go out clubbing, didn't go partying, studied and she

:05:50.:05:53.

was up stairs. He had no sense of the fact she was in more danger

:05:54.:05:58.

online than if she had been doing the other things. There is a

:05:59.:06:00.

conversation that has to be happening. That isn't happening. It

:06:01.:06:04.

is not as challenging as it could be around the rights of the female. I'm

:06:05.:06:14.

in favour of a rights-based society, rather than a multicultural society.

:06:15.:06:21.

Why weren't you allowed to speak out. Do you think there is

:06:22.:06:26.

self-sensor ship going on or political correctness. If you ask

:06:27.:06:33.

the police commissioner, the board who stopped me speaking, I live in

:06:34.:06:38.

Manchester, the atrocity was very close to hand, I drop my son there

:06:39.:06:43.

all the time. It is a very personal thing to me. A lot of people were

:06:44.:06:49.

saying to me, I prosecuted terrorism cases and I have ex-- experience of

:06:50.:06:57.

terrorism. People said, we don't want you to say anything, they were

:06:58.:07:01.

justify that on the basis we are in an election campaign and what I

:07:02.:07:06.

would say might be miscontrued party politically. But nothing I'm saying

:07:07.:07:11.

is party political. But it is about the bigger picture of protecting our

:07:12.:07:15.

society and communities and for whatever reasons they were ru' --

:07:16.:07:22.

reluctant to let me speak and I walked out of day. The conversations

:07:23.:07:27.

we are now having reflect what needs to be had. Thank you very joining

:07:28.:07:34.

us. Having walked out the door, you walked into your studio. We are glad

:07:35.:07:36.

you did. French police have shot

:07:37.:07:40.

and injured a man outside the cathedral of Notre Dame,

network respond to this and there is focus on Europe at the moment with

:08:27.:08:31.

the terror attacks in the UK and the point I was making on Twitter, I was

:08:32.:08:36.

surprised how much attention that incident in Paris and I'm not

:08:37.:08:43.

belittling it, but it happens where the police are targeted by these

:08:44.:08:48.

people, I was surprised how much attention was on that and how little

:08:49.:08:53.

on the shooting of five people at a factory in Florida. Yes, that was a

:08:54.:08:58.

disgruntled worker and there was almost no coverage and almost no

:08:59.:09:01.

coverage of the fact that 150 people were Kimmed in a bomb -- killed in a

:09:02.:09:07.

bombing in Kabul. It does seem to be, we don't know if it is terror

:09:08.:09:14.

related, but these incidents, it is worth asking in the media how much

:09:15.:09:18.

attention we should give these stories. That story has been wrapped

:09:19.:09:23.

up and it is being investigated. I think we can draw a line under that

:09:24.:09:25.

one. More stories have been

:09:26.:09:28.

emerging of people in London Bridge on the

:09:29.:09:29.

night of the attacks. Many people tried to

fight off the attackers, as they worked their way

24 hours and an election that was all about Brexit has

:12:53.:12:56.

suddenly veered into security and policing in the wake

:12:57.:12:58.

of Manchester and London. But on Thursday the decision

:12:59.:13:00.

that is made by the British voters will have a huge impact on Britain's

:13:01.:13:03.

future relationship with Europe. Will Theresa May get

:13:04.:13:06.

the mandate she wants? Or will Labour take enough seats

:13:07.:13:08.

to deny her the thumping Today there has been a frenetic

:13:09.:13:10.

pace to the campaigning. Jeremy Corbyn has been in London

:13:11.:13:14.

and Shropshire and tonight he's in Ladywood in Birmingham,

:13:15.:13:16.

a safe Labour seat. The Prime Minister has been

:13:17.:13:18.

in Lancashire, North Wales and in the past few minutes she has

:13:19.:13:20.

arrived, closer to home, in Slough. Our political correspondent

:13:21.:13:24.

Ben Wright has been following the Prime Minister

:13:25.:13:25.

on the campaign trail today Slough has a Labour majority. Not a

:13:26.:13:34.

seat you would expect Theresa May to be targeting? True. But this is a

:13:35.:13:40.

campaign that is quietly very confident. There has been a closing

:13:41.:13:44.

in the polls in the last couple of weeks, it feels and probably is a

:13:45.:13:49.

tighter race than it was six weeks ago when Theresa May surprised the

:13:50.:13:53.

UK and called the snap general election. But I feel within the Tory

:13:54.:13:57.

camp they're sure this is going to be all right for them and they're

:13:58.:14:00.

going to be returned with a bigger majority. How big is the question.

:14:01.:14:09.

But last night I was up in a city called Bradford, a constituency

:14:10.:14:11.

Bradford South, that the Conservative Party last won in 1918.

:14:12.:14:15.

But a century later, Theresa May thinks she could take it and a big

:14:16.:14:20.

reason is that even though there is a Labour majority of 6,500 there was

:14:21.:14:26.

a very large vote for Brexit, for leaving the EU. And a partly called

:14:27.:14:36.

Ukip did well in 2015 and the Conservative are confident in other

:14:37.:14:44.

seats they can scoop up a lot of the Ukip votes, because Brexit is going

:14:45.:14:48.

to happen. I know I have asked you that a and you won't tell me how

:14:49.:14:54.

many seats you needs or the it to be a real victory. She is playing

:14:55.:14:59.

offence and Labour seem to be playing defence, Jeremy Corbyn in

:15:00.:15:03.

safe Labour seats today, what are they looking, is it internal numbers

:15:04.:15:08.

they have or different polls from what we are seeing, something is

:15:09.:15:14.

giving them that confidence. All parties do their own private

:15:15.:15:19.

polling, I think private polling in Labour when I last checked with them

:15:20.:15:25.

looked dire Tatlower end of their -- at the lower end of their

:15:26.:15:28.

predictions and the Conservatives remain confident, although the

:15:29.:15:32.

national swing may not look fantastic that, individual seats

:15:33.:15:35.

will deliver the majority they're looking for and that made this

:15:36.:15:41.

gamble worthwhile. Your question remains a pertinent one and it is

:15:42.:15:45.

being asked. There is a big difference between her winning by 20

:15:46.:15:50.

and winning by 90. There is a big difference for her personally and

:15:51.:15:55.

what it gives her going into the Brexit negotiations in a few days.

:15:56.:16:02.

She has just appeared behind me. Between 20 and 90, you have given

:16:03.:16:08.

yourself a lot of latitude. That is quite a sweep stake. What is going

:16:09.:16:14.

on, in these last couple of days, why is the Tory party in offence and

:16:15.:16:18.

Labour on defence. Offence and defence, you have been in Washington

:16:19.:16:26.

too long, they're on attack mode. I'm playing American football.

:16:27.:16:30.

They're targeting Labour seats in the north-west and the north in

:16:31.:16:34.

places like Leeds and Manchester and perhaps in the north east which has

:16:35.:16:41.

been traditional Labour heartland. In the last election, they were not

:16:42.:16:49.

expected to get a majority. They got a majority of 12. That was a big

:16:50.:16:54.

surprise. Now at the start of the election they were a long way ahead

:16:55.:16:58.

in the polls and you could understand why the Prime Minister

:16:59.:17:01.

called the election. But she was probably thinking at about probably

:17:02.:17:09.

up around 80 to a hundred majority. That is the concern, will she have

:17:10.:17:13.

that majority to limit the role of some of the more hardline

:17:14.:17:18.

backbenchers in her party. For Labour, they're focussing on safe

:17:19.:17:22.

seats and some of the feeling in Westminster is they're trying to

:17:23.:17:26.

increase the share of the vote and Jeremy Corbyn in particular, because

:17:27.:17:32.

he does want to be forced to resign, rather than going after a hundred

:17:33.:17:34.

seats from the Conservative to try and win. That is the feeling. We

:17:35.:17:38.

will get an idea on Friday whether or not he has been successful. It

:17:39.:17:45.

will be interesting. We will have to sthee. Some of the Labour Labour

:17:46.:17:52.

critics looking at how much of a margin he gets with some scepticism.

:17:53.:17:58.

I will get you a sweep stake on how many seats she will get in private.

:17:59.:18:04.

The White House has been really unhappy about leaks ever

:18:05.:18:07.

Now they've cracked down with their first arrest

:18:08.:18:10.

A 25-year-old woman who worked as a contractor

:18:11.:18:13.

The information Reality Winner has admitted leaking is that it

:18:14.:18:18.

suggests Russia WAS trying to interfere with the actual

:18:19.:18:20.

voting procedure - the machines and the software,

:18:21.:18:22.

You might remember President Obama had expressed concerns that the poll

:18:23.:18:26.

We are joined by New York Times reporter Adam Goldman.

:18:27.:18:34.

We want to talk about the content of what was leaked and the White

:18:35.:18:41.

House's reaction. The content, how critical is the information that

:18:42.:18:47.

Reality Winner put out? You know, I don't think it necessarily is a

:18:48.:18:51.

game-changer in terms of information. It provided important

:18:52.:18:57.

contacts and we know the Russians continue to hack and interfere with

:18:58.:19:00.

the election after President Obama had warned Russia to stop. But it

:19:01.:19:07.

was useful. There is no surprise is there that this White House would

:19:08.:19:11.

have as soon as it had the opportunity to find somebody leaking

:19:12.:19:15.

information to the press arrest them and after all President Obama

:19:16.:19:21.

prosecuted leakers as well? Sure, President Obama prosecuted twice the

:19:22.:19:27.

number who had ever been prosecuted in its totality before him. So you

:19:28.:19:32.

know, it is not a surprise that the justice department under the

:19:33.:19:41.

leadership of Jeff Sessions and Ross Rosenstein will go after leakers and

:19:42.:19:44.

the president has made it clear it is a priority. The question is how

:19:45.:19:50.

far and how many do they do? There is no indication that they tilted

:19:51.:19:54.

the election towards Trump, but there is evidence they tried if you

:19:55.:19:59.

believe this leak. But would the administration have told us the NSA

:20:00.:20:03.

had proof of these Russian attempts to hack had she not leaked the

:20:04.:20:11.

information? Well, I mean, let's not for get the former director of

:20:12.:20:16.

intelligence, who was in charge of the department of homeland security

:20:17.:20:21.

put out a statement suggesting Russian interference and there was a

:20:22.:20:25.

report in January that blamed the Russians for interfering in the

:20:26.:20:33.

election. So you know, what she put out doesn't on a 20,000 foot level

:20:34.:20:37.

change our understanding of what the Russians did. Thank you very much.

:20:38.:20:45.

We get some good guests in London and that is great. Sometimes I feel

:20:46.:20:50.

a bit left out. I'm not part of Washington club and I don't have the

:20:51.:20:55.

access to the high fliers. So you what I have done? I have invited Ron

:20:56.:21:01.

Christie here to London. You have lured him away. Ron, you traitor!

:21:02.:21:07.

I'm part of Washington fraternity. He has been to Rome and to now he is

:21:08.:21:13.

in London and is right here in the studio. Good the see you. He'll come

:21:14.:21:18.

back to me. Don't worry. You're out of it. What do you think about this

:21:19.:21:27.

leak? Is there any moral ambiguity to this? No, having top security

:21:28.:21:36.

clearance there is no excuse for releasing materials, particularly

:21:37.:21:39.

when you're a contractor, you take a special oath not to disclose

:21:40.:21:43.

information and the fact she did and sent it to the mails, she is in

:21:44.:21:51.

trouble. Ron, I insist on being part of conversation. You have noticed

:21:52.:21:56.

the president has been tweeting and today put himself in the the row

between Arab nations and Qatar. Why is the president wading into

:22:01.:22:33.

something that is incredibly diplomatically sensitive and you

:22:34.:22:41.

have 11,000 US military personnel posted to Qatar, is this sensible?

:22:42.:22:47.

No, it is baffling to me. Given the fact that he likes to conduct

:22:48.:22:50.

business via Twitter as we always talk about, but to do something of

:22:51.:22:55.

this magnitude and don't forget, the United States has its largest

:22:56.:22:59.

military presence in Qatar. And we have the fifth fleet which has the

:23:00.:23:03.

American navy in Bahrain, one country over. And for him to take

:23:04.:23:12.

these sort of steps via Twitter to isolate the United States is

:23:13.:23:15.

foolish. It is not smart. Not wise and now I don't understand how this

:23:16.:23:19.

White House will pull itself out of this. The thing is, we had a load of

:23:20.:23:25.

people yesterday who were close to the president saying you have got to

:23:26.:23:29.

ignore what the president is saying on social media. It is not policy.

:23:30.:23:37.

Have a look at what the Wall Street journal put its editorial today.

:23:38.:23:57.

Which is the point we have made countless times on this programme.

:23:58.:24:04.

No yes about it. If is were working in the White House and I'm not going

:24:05.:24:09.

anywhere, I'm staying here, but if you were an aide, you to worry every

:24:10.:24:17.

time the boss picks up his hand-held device that could up end the

:24:18.:24:21.

policies. This is supposed to be about infrastructure. Yes but we are

:24:22.:24:27.

talking about Twitter. Do you detect a difference this week, it seems the

:24:28.:24:31.

tone of the tweets since the weekend and the London bombings, the

:24:32.:24:36.

frequency of them, has stepped up. It smacks of a real sense of

:24:37.:24:40.

grievance in the White House in the office of the president. No

:24:41.:24:44.

question, having been here on Saturday and Sunday when the events

:24:45.:24:49.

took place and see my president sending out those tweets, I thought

:24:50.:24:52.

it was tone deaf at best and my friends in the administration threw

:24:53.:24:57.

their arms up and there was an article saying the president has a

:24:58.:25:01.

difficult time getting legal counsel and people to represent him not

:25:02.:25:05.

knowing what the president may say or tweet. It comes down to the idea

:25:06.:25:14.

of... In a way his paranoia about the popular vote. He is trying to

:25:15.:25:22.

justify why he is there. He keeping sending out these tweet, he started

:25:23.:25:26.

again on the fake media. It comes to his own insecurities. What else can

:25:27.:25:32.

you say? If my wife was the only one there for my inauguration, I would

:25:33.:25:35.

be happy, I wouldn't look at any other numbers. We know who is in

:25:36.:25:41.

charge and it is not me. Christian and I would turn up. You know where

:25:42.:25:48.

the love is by the way. I'm... Just come back to me. I'm coming back on

:25:49.:25:57.

Thursday. Ron good to have you. You're watching 100 Days on BBC

:25:58.:25:58.

News.
