:06:09. > :06:16.It was the solemn pledge treated to the voter by David Cameron before

:06:21. > :06:25.Will it be repeated before this election? Today the Chancellor
:06:26. > :06:29.visiting Washington for a meeting of leading industrialised nations
:06:30. > :06:34.hinted maybe not. I came into politics not to see taxes rising,
:06:35. > :06:39.but to see the burden of taxation falling as our economy grows, and
:06:40. > :06:45.that remains my very clear political ambition. But you do not support a
:06:46. > :06:50.specific tax pledges not to raise income tax, national insurance and
:06:51. > :06:54.VAT, because it would tie your hands. All chancellors would prefer
:06:55. > :06:59.to have more flexibility in how they manage the economy and how they
:07:00. > :07:02.manage the overall tax burden down. Then to have their hands
:07:03. > :07:08.constrained. The problem with pledges, they tend to come unstuck.
:07:09. > :07:11.Here is the Chancellor on budget Day announcing an increase to national
:07:12. > :07:15.insurance payments for the self-employed. There followed a
:07:16. > :07:21.screeching U-turn after critics pointed out Mr Howard had broken
:07:22. > :07:25.that 2015 pledge. The Chancellor is here in Washington to talk about the
:07:26. > :07:29.global economy, but frankly his mind is on matters rather more domestic.
:07:30. > :07:35.In his interview with me I think he went as far as he feels able to
:07:36. > :07:39.given that the manifesto is not yet finalised. He's no fan of
:07:40. > :07:45.constraining promises, particularly on tax. He used one word over and
:07:46. > :07:52.over again. Flexibility. Mr Hammond has opened up a flank, and labour
:07:53. > :07:55.attacked. I think he's recognising he's got problems with the economy,
:07:56. > :08:00.problems with the budgeting he's done. As a result of that there will
:08:01. > :08:05.be tax rises under a Conservative government if they get re-elected.
:08:06. > :08:10.This is quite a tax bombshell. As always, the big test in any
:08:11. > :08:13.election, the economy. And today's retail sales figures suggested the
:08:14. > :08:18.increased inflation is starting to bite, and consumers are feeling the
:08:19. > :08:21.strain. Some might say you've called this election to get a mandate
:08:22. > :08:27.before the economy truly turned sour. We've called the election
:08:28. > :08:31.because it will strengthen the Prime Minister's hand in the negotiations
:08:32. > :08:35.to get the right Brexit deal for Britain. But in terms of the
:08:36. > :08:40.economic data, it has been remarkably resilient over the last
:08:41. > :08:45.nine months. Just this week, the IMF revised up its forecast for
:08:46. > :08:49.Britain's economy this year to 2%. The Chancellor will return from his
:08:50. > :08:53.US trip at the weekend. Back to an election battle where the promises
:08:54. > :08:56.the parties make to voters will be key. As far as Mr Hammond is
:08:57. > :08:59.concerned, the fewer it would seem the better. Kamal Ahmed, BBC News,
:09:00. > :09:01.Washington. Let's speak to our deputy political

:09:26. > :09:29.promise risks upsetting a lot of the people who are always the most
:09:30. > :09:34.likely to make their way to the polling station on election day. Is
:09:35. > :09:38.that about confidence, is it about economic pressure? Well if that's
:09:39. > :09:41.what happens it would involve a big dollop of both. An overseas age
:09:42. > :09:47.Theresa May has already decided to take on part of her party, part of
:09:48. > :09:50.Fleet Street and a large slice of public opinion who would like to see
:09:51. > :09:55.more aid spending devoted to priority is closer to home. As far
:09:56. > :09:58.as Jeremy Corbyn is concerned, never doubt his sincerity talking about
:09:59. > :10:03.protecting public services, public spending. It goes down well with a
:10:04. > :10:08.lot of his loyal supporters. Yet he will admit he's the one who has to
:10:09. > :10:12.defy the odds and the polls and the pundits. Why? There are questions
:10:13. > :10:16.about the affordability of some of those Labour plans, questions about
:10:17. > :10:19.leadership and trust. This election will be a lot to do with trust and
:10:20. > :10:24.to do with questions of leadership. As many have in the past. This time,

:20:13. > :20:15.found that there were multiple failures and that it
:20:16. > :20:17.could happen again. Corporal James Dunsby,
:20:18. > :20:19.Lance Corporal Edward Maher and Lance Corporal Craig Roberts
:20:20. > :20:22.died of heat exhaustion during a recruitment exercise on one
:20:23. > :20:25.of the hottest days of 2013. Our political correspondent
:20:26. > :20:27.Adam Fleming is outside the Ministry of Defence for us tonight,
:20:28. > :20:42.a pretty damning report. Yes, Fiona, and it echoes previous
:20:43. > :20:47.similar criticisms from a coroner and the Health and Safety Executive.
:20:48. > :20:50.Now we have this investigation by the MOD's defends safety authority
:20:51. > :20:57.declassified today. The document points out failures at really every
:20:58. > :21:01.single level. On the ground the staff running this exercise didn't
:21:02. > :21:05.have the equipment to monitor the temperature on a day when
:21:06. > :21:09.temperatures reached 31 Celsius. The people running the exercise haven't
:21:10. > :21:13.clocked the fact that the reserve lists who are part-time soldiers
:21:14. > :21:17.might not be as physically fit or as well-prepared as the professional
:21:18. > :21:22.soldiers who work full time doing the exercise a long side them.
:21:23. > :21:26.Further of the chain the report identifies the issue that no one
:21:27. > :21:30.really knows exactly what role these specialist reserve units should be
:21:31. > :21:33.playing if they are ever deployed on the battlefield, which means no one
:21:34. > :21:37.really knows if this really exceptionally gruelling kind of
:21:38. > :21:40.training is the right thing for them to be doing. The conclusion in this
:21:41. > :21:45.document released today, there is a danger something like this could
:21:46. > :21:48.happen again. That is rejected to night here at the MOD where
:21:49. > :21:52.officials say lessons and recommendations are being listened
:21:53. > :21:53.to and learning is being done. Adam Fleming outside the MOD, thank
:21:54. > :21:54.you. The world of football has reacted
:21:55. > :21:56.with shock to the death of the former England
:21:57. > :21:59.and Aston Villa defender, He collapsed yesterday
:22:00. > :22:05.after suffering a cardiac arrest at Tottenham Hotspurs' training
:22:06. > :22:08.ground, where he worked as a coach. He was capped four
:22:09. > :22:09.times for England. Here's our sports
:22:10. > :22:15.correspondent, Joe Wilson. He stopped goals and sometimes he's
:22:16. > :22:23.scored them. A central defender as strong
:22:24. > :22:33.and imposing as any in football. His passing was perhaps felt most
:22:34. > :22:40.poignantly at Aston Villa where he played for a decade. I think we are
:22:41. > :22:47.all shocked and devastated by the news of somebody so young who very,
:22:48. > :22:51.very quietly was making his way as a very talented coach from what I've
:22:52. > :22:57.been hearing. He was uncompromising, quick, all of the football world
:22:58. > :23:00.will be shocked and saddened. Ugo Ehiogu was making his name as a
:23:01. > :23:04.coach with Tottenham and Bailey looked like he had aged from his
:23:05. > :23:08.playing days. He suffered cardiac arrest at Tottenham's training
:23:09. > :23:12.ground yesterday. Through his career one man stood alongside Ugo Ehiogu,
:23:13. > :23:15.Gareth Southgate, defensive partners at Villa and then Middlesbrough,
:23:16. > :23:21.Southgate is now the England manager. His friend gone. Southgate
:23:22. > :23:23.paid this tribute to Ugo Ehiogu today. Most importantly, he said, he
:23:24. > :23:42.was a gentleman. Ugo Ehiogu was married with two
:23:43. > :23:47.macro children. For football the death of a dedicated professional
:23:48. > :23:50.and Dominic at 44 carries the sadness of simply not making sense.
:23:51. > :23:53.The footballer Ugo Ehiog, who has died at the age of 44.
:23:54. > :23:55.And just before we go, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
:23:56. > :23:59.as you've never heard them before - announcers of this week's
:24:00. > :24:05.The couple popped into the studio to talk about their mental health
:24:06. > :24:07.campaign - amongst other things as our royal correspondent
:24:08. > :24:14.Please welcome to Radio 1 the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
:24:15. > :24:16.With a destiny to fulfil, some DJing in the
:24:17. > :24:23.These are royals bringing their message about mental
:24:24. > :24:25.health to a young audience and a confession about listening habits.
:24:26. > :24:31.Obviously, I wouldn't tell you who I was.
:24:32. > :24:34.What are you doing texting in your car?
:24:35. > :24:40.I have not texted while driving because that is illegal.
:24:41. > :24:44.The princely fan who seeks shout-outs
:24:45. > :24:47.and who was castigated when he missed a royal event for a skiing
:24:48. > :24:49.and clubbing trip loves going to gigs.
:24:50. > :24:51.It's not something you can really do all the time?
:24:52. > :24:56.No, and you know, I've got enough trouble with
:24:57. > :24:58.my dancing recently so it's kind of best to keep away
:24:59. > :25:09.The price of such airtime, questions that wouldn't have amused
:25:10. > :25:12.Victoria, like what takes their fancy for a TV supper.
:25:13. > :25:14.Yeah, I'm not so good with the spicy food.
:25:15. > :25:18.But if you do a takeaway they must never believe you
:25:19. > :25:19.when you're ordering it to the palace, right?
:25:20. > :25:21.It doesn't usually get ordered to the palace, Chris.
:25:22. > :25:24.Right, I see. We tend to go and pick it up.
:25:25. > :25:28.Go for a little visit around the area.
:25:29. > :25:31.He's not going to go to Chicken Cottage, is he?

:25:34. > :25:34.royals remained, and were set to work.
:25:35. > :25:36.And the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

:25:45. > :25:48.So, number one is Ed Sheeran, Shape Of You.
:25:49. > :25:50.For a couple facing a life of pomp this was pure pleasure.
:25:51. > :25:52.When I'm on holiday would you mind stepping in?
:25:53. > :25:57.To be honest with you we could probably do a better job.
