The government says no cuts to foreign aid -

:00:00.:00:07.

but stops short of promising to keep pensions rising as they do now.

:00:08.:00:11.

As Theresa May campaigned in Berkshire, her chancellor

:00:12.:00:15.

in the US also suggested a possible softening of the government's

:00:16.:00:17.

All chancellors would prefer to have more flexibility in how they manage

:00:18.:00:25.

the economy and how they manage the overall tax

:00:26.:00:31.

the economy and how they manage the overall tax burden down,

:00:32.:00:34.

than having to have their hands constrained.

:00:35.:00:36.

We'll be assessing what messages voters can take from the first few

:01:19.:01:42.

On day three of the campaign trail the Prime Minister

:01:43.:01:46.

and the Chancellor have given their first hints

:01:47.:01:48.

of what will and what may not be in the Conservative manifesto.

:01:49.:01:51.

Theresa May says she'll keep the current

:01:52.:01:52.

spending on foreign aid - despite pressure from some

:01:53.:01:54.

the so-called triple lock on pensions - which guarantees

:01:55.:02:02.

they rise by inflation, average earnings or 2.5% each year,

:02:03.:02:04.

And the Chancellor Philip Hammond has hinted that the Conservatives

:02:05.:02:11.

will end the party's promise not to raise Income Tax,

:02:12.:02:14.

Our first report is from our deputy political

:02:15.:02:18.

No leader stays popular for ever, but

:02:19.:02:26.

Theresa May clearly feels she's liked enough for now to make

:02:27.:02:29.

promises some might like, but others won't.

:02:30.:02:31.

And the message, one we've heard before and will again.

:02:32.:02:37.

What drives me in politics, the passion that I

:02:38.:02:39.

have in politics, is to make the United Kingdom a country that

:02:40.:02:42.

works for everyone and not just the

:02:43.:02:44.

Today, that meant sticking to Britain's target for

:02:45.:02:48.

Spending that some right-wingers want cut.

:02:49.:02:54.

What we need to do, though, is look at how that money is spent and make

:02:55.:02:58.

sure we are able to spend that money in the most effective way.

:02:59.:03:01.

But how will the cash be spent and held back?

:03:02.:03:05.

And what about that other costly pledge?

:03:06.:03:08.

Again today you are telling the country you are a leader

:03:09.:03:13.

So, can pensioners trust you to go on

:03:14.:03:17.

raising their state pensions year by year just as your party and your

:03:18.:03:20.

pensioners, is just look what the Conservatives in government have

:03:21.:03:29.

Pensioners today, ?1250 a year better off was a result of action

:03:30.:03:36.

We were very clear about the need to ensure that

:03:37.:03:41.

we support people in their old age and that's exactly what we've done.

:03:42.:03:45.

That wasn't a yes, but here in Berkshire, in a lot of places,

:03:46.:03:51.

plenty of people like the idea of looking after pensioners.

:03:52.:03:53.

They've worked all their lives and they've paid their

:03:54.:03:56.

national insurance and they've paid their taxes, so I think they deserve

:03:57.:03:59.

If you can't look after the elderly, what

:04:00.:04:02.

A lot of them put it straight in the bank.

:04:03.:04:08.

Theresa May may be about to upset an awful lot of voters.

:04:09.:04:12.

Even thinking about dropping the Tory promise to

:04:13.:04:20.

pensioners takes a leader very confident about this election.

:04:21.:04:22.

Especially now she's clearly protecting overseas aid spending at

:04:23.:04:24.

A big lead in the polls comes in handy if you are

:04:25.:04:28.

about to annoy millions of pensioners.

:04:29.:04:30.

A big majority in the Commons even more so.

:04:31.:04:32.

Theresa May sounds incapable of answering any questions about the

:04:33.:04:51.

protection of the triple lock on the state pension.

:04:52.:04:57.

Well, I give you my commitment now, Labour will

:04:58.:04:59.

He stood by what is called the triple lock,

:05:00.:05:04.

pensions up every year by inflation or average earnings.

:05:05.:05:06.

Can Labour afford this along with other promises?

:05:07.:05:12.

Sorry, I'm not quite sure where I'm going.

:05:13.:05:16.

No one does, no one's actually voted yet.

:05:17.:05:23.

They are sure this election will be better than last

:05:24.:05:26.

We are the only clear opposition to the Conservatives

:05:27.:05:29.

opposing a hard Brexit, opposing exit from the single market, being a

:05:30.:05:33.

clear and effective decent opposition on every other level.

:05:34.:05:35.

Pollsters and pundits may think they know how this ends, but

:05:36.:05:40.

The Chancellor Philip Hammond has said he would prefer the government

:05:41.:05:51.

Speaking to the BBC, he hinted that he would to see

:05:52.:05:59.

amended the Conservative's 2015 manifesto promise not

:06:00.:06:01.

to raise income tax , VAT or national insurance.

:06:02.:06:03.

He was talking to our Economics Editor Kamal Ahmed in Washington.

:06:04.:06:08.

It was the solemn pledge treated to the voter by David Cameron before

:06:09.:06:16.

the election of 2015. No increases in tax, VAT or national insurance.

:06:17.:06:20.

Will it be repeated before this election? Today the Chancellor

:06:21.:06:25.

visiting Washington for a meeting of leading industrialised nations

:06:26.:06:29.

hinted maybe not. I came into politics not to see taxes rising,

:06:30.:06:34.

but to see the burden of taxation falling as our economy grows, and

:06:35.:06:39.

that remains my very clear political ambition. But you do not support a

:06:40.:06:45.

specific tax pledges not to raise income tax, national insurance and

:06:46.:06:50.

VAT, because it would tie your hands. All chancellors would prefer

:06:51.:06:54.

to have more flexibility in how they manage the economy and how they

:06:55.:06:59.

manage the overall tax burden down. Then to have their hands

:07:00.:07:02.

constrained. The problem with pledges, they tend to come unstuck.

:07:03.:07:08.

Here is the Chancellor on budget Day announcing an increase to national

:07:09.:07:11.

insurance payments for the self-employed. There followed a

:07:12.:07:15.

screeching U-turn after critics pointed out Mr Howard had broken

:07:16.:07:21.

that 2015 pledge. The Chancellor is here in Washington to talk about the

:07:22.:07:25.

global economy, but frankly his mind is on matters rather more domestic.

:07:26.:07:29.

In his interview with me I think he went as far as he feels able to

:07:30.:07:35.

given that the manifesto is not yet finalised. He's no fan of

:07:36.:07:39.

constraining promises, particularly on tax. He used one word over and

:07:40.:07:45.

over again. Flexibility. Mr Hammond has opened up a flank, and labour

:07:46.:07:52.

attacked. I think he's recognising he's got problems with the economy,

:07:53.:07:55.

problems with the budgeting he's done. As a result of that there will

:07:56.:08:00.

be tax rises under a Conservative government if they get re-elected.

:08:01.:08:05.

This is quite a tax bombshell. As always, the big test in any

:08:06.:08:10.

election, the economy. And today's retail sales figures suggested the

:08:11.:08:13.

increased inflation is starting to bite, and consumers are feeling the

:08:14.:08:18.

strain. Some might say you've called this election to get a mandate

:08:19.:08:21.

before the economy truly turned sour. We've called the election

:08:22.:08:27.

because it will strengthen the Prime Minister's hand in the negotiations

:08:28.:08:31.

to get the right Brexit deal for Britain. But in terms of the

:08:32.:08:35.

economic data, it has been remarkably resilient over the last

:08:36.:08:40.

nine months. Just this week, the IMF revised up its forecast for

:08:41.:08:45.

Britain's economy this year to 2%. The Chancellor will return from his

:08:46.:08:49.

US trip at the weekend. Back to an election battle where the promises

:08:50.:08:53.

the parties make to voters will be key. As far as Mr Hammond is

:08:54.:08:56.

concerned, the fewer it would seem the better. Kamal Ahmed, BBC News,

:08:57.:08:59.

Washington. Let's speak to our deputy political

:09:00.:09:01.

editor John Pienaar, The end of the week which has seen

political campaigning get underway from a standing start -

:09:04.:09:08.

what can people take out Fiona, we're less than a week into

:09:09.:09:17.

this campaign and already the Prime Minister has made and may be

:09:18.:09:21.

preparing to make some very big calls. Dropping the Tories pensions

:09:22.:09:25.

promise risks upsetting a lot of the people who are always the most

:09:26.:09:29.

likely to make their way to the polling station on election day. Is

:09:30.:09:34.

that about confidence, is it about economic pressure? Well if that's

:09:35.:09:38.

what happens it would involve a big dollop of both. An overseas age

:09:39.:09:41.

Theresa May has already decided to take on part of her party, part of

:09:42.:09:47.

Fleet Street and a large slice of public opinion who would like to see

:09:48.:09:50.

more aid spending devoted to priority is closer to home. As far

:09:51.:09:55.

as Jeremy Corbyn is concerned, never doubt his sincerity talking about

:09:56.:09:58.

protecting public services, public spending. It goes down well with a

:09:59.:10:03.

lot of his loyal supporters. Yet he will admit he's the one who has to

:10:04.:10:08.

defy the odds and the polls and the pundits. Why? There are questions

:10:09.:10:12.

about the affordability of some of those Labour plans, questions about

:10:13.:10:16.

leadership and trust. This election will be a lot to do with trust and

:10:17.:10:19.

to do with questions of leadership. As many have in the past. This time,

:10:20.:10:24.

though, there is a distance Willett difference. As the country faces

:10:25.:10:28.

this stark choice of futures on the brink of Brexit it's a defining

historically nation defining time and no one taking part in this

continent. Hundreds of years on,

the French Revolution still inspires

:13:57.:14:02.

the idea of the power of the people. But rarely so close to a French

:14:03.:14:05.

election has there been so much uncertainty

:14:06.:14:08.

with so much at stake. As you say, the first round of

:14:09.:14:17.

voting is on Sunday, it is so close, and there has been much speculation

:14:18.:14:21.

today that yesterday's attack could have boosted the chances of the far

:14:22.:14:22.

right. Absolutely, Marine Le Pen has or was

:14:23.:14:30.

put nationalism and security front and centre of her election campaign

:14:31.:14:33.

so it would be easy to assume she would benefit at the ballot box

:14:34.:14:37.

following last night's shootings. But there are many French men and

:14:38.:14:42.

women who see her as a dangerous extremist threat. Moving around the

:14:43.:14:47.

streets of Paris today I met a number of voters who said they would

:14:48.:14:50.

vote tactically, maybe not for the candidate they love but for the one

:14:51.:14:54.

they believe could beat her and stop her from becoming France's next

:14:55.:14:58.

President. The latest polls we have seen this evening shows it is still

:14:59.:15:02.

very much a four horse race so voters can choose their front

:15:03.:15:05.

runners from the far right to the far left, the centre and traditional

:15:06.:15:09.

centre right as well and there is crucially still a big chunk of

:15:10.:15:12.

French voters who say they will make up their mind at the last moment.

:15:13.:15:16.

Legally in France from tonight there is a news blackout so no more polls,

:15:17.:15:20.

no more political information until Sunday night, so it will be then

24-hour coal-free period A Ministry of Defence report

on the deaths of three SAS reservists in the Brecon Beacons has

:20:03.:20:12.

found that there were multiple failures and that it

:20:13.:20:15.

could happen again. Corporal James Dunsby,

:20:16.:20:17.

Lance Corporal Edward Maher and Lance Corporal Craig Roberts

:20:18.:20:19.

died of heat exhaustion during a recruitment exercise on one

:20:20.:20:22.

of the hottest days of 2013. Our political correspondent

:20:23.:20:25.

Adam Fleming is outside the Ministry of Defence for us tonight,

:20:26.:20:27.

a pretty damning report. Yes, Fiona, and it echoes previous

:20:28.:20:42.

similar criticisms from a coroner and the Health and Safety Executive.

:20:43.:20:47.

Now we have this investigation by the MOD's defends safety authority

:20:48.:20:50.

declassified today. The document points out failures at really every

:20:51.:20:57.

single level. On the ground the staff running this exercise didn't

:20:58.:21:01.

have the equipment to monitor the temperature on a day when

:21:02.:21:05.

temperatures reached 31 Celsius. The people running the exercise haven't

:21:06.:21:09.

clocked the fact that the reserve lists who are part-time soldiers

:21:10.:21:13.

might not be as physically fit or as well-prepared as the professional

:21:14.:21:17.

soldiers who work full time doing the exercise a long side them.

:21:18.:21:22.

Further of the chain the report identifies the issue that no one

:21:23.:21:26.

really knows exactly what role these specialist reserve units should be

:21:27.:21:30.

playing if they are ever deployed on the battlefield, which means no one

:21:31.:21:33.

really knows if this really exceptionally gruelling kind of

:21:34.:21:37.

training is the right thing for them to be doing. The conclusion in this

:21:38.:21:40.

document released today, there is a danger something like this could

:21:41.:21:45.

happen again. That is rejected to night here at the MOD where

:21:46.:21:48.

officials say lessons and recommendations are being listened

:21:49.:21:52.

to and learning is being done. Adam Fleming outside the MOD, thank

:21:53.:21:53.

you. The world of football has reacted

:21:54.:21:54.

with shock to the death of the former England

times for England. Here's our sports

correspondent, Joe Wilson. He stopped goals and sometimes he's

:22:10.:22:15.

scored them. A central defender as strong

:22:16.:22:23.

and imposing as any in football. His passing was perhaps felt most

:22:24.:22:33.

poignantly at Aston Villa where he played for a decade. I think we are

:22:34.:22:40.

all shocked and devastated by the news of somebody so young who very,

:22:41.:22:47.

very quietly was making his way as a very talented coach from what I've

:22:48.:22:51.

been hearing. He was uncompromising, quick, all of the football world

:22:52.:22:57.

will be shocked and saddened. Ugo Ehiogu was making his name as a

:22:58.:23:00.

coach with Tottenham and Bailey looked like he had aged from his

:23:01.:23:04.

playing days. He suffered cardiac arrest at Tottenham's training

Gareth Southgate, defensive partners at Villa and then Middlesbrough,

:23:13.:23:15.

Southgate is now the England manager. His friend gone. Southgate

:23:16.:23:21.

paid this tribute to Ugo Ehiogu today. Most importantly, he said, he

:23:22.:23:23.

was a gentleman. Ugo Ehiogu was married with two

:23:24.:23:42.

macro children. For football the death of a dedicated professional

:23:43.:23:47.

and Dominic at 44 carries the sadness of simply not making sense.

:23:48.:23:50.

The footballer Ugo Ehiog, who has died at the age of 44.

:23:51.:23:53.

And just before we go, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

:23:54.:23:55.

as you've never heard them before - announcers of this week's

:23:56.:23:59.

The couple popped into the studio to talk about their mental health

:24:00.:24:05.

campaign - amongst other things as our royal correspondent

:24:06.:24:07.

Please welcome to Radio 1 the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

:24:08.:24:14.

With a destiny to fulfil, some DJing in the

:24:15.:24:16.

These are royals bringing their message about mental

:24:17.:24:23.

health to a young audience and a confession about listening habits.

:24:24.:24:25.

Obviously, I wouldn't tell you who I was.

:24:26.:24:31.

What are you doing texting in your car?

:24:32.:24:34.

I have not texted while driving because that is illegal.

:24:35.:24:40.

The princely fan who seeks shout-outs

:24:41.:24:44.

and who was castigated when he missed a royal event for a skiing

:24:45.:24:47.

and clubbing trip loves going to gigs.

:24:48.:24:49.

It's not something you can really do all the time?

:24:50.:24:51.

No, and you know, I've got enough trouble with

:24:52.:24:56.

my dancing recently so it's kind of best to keep away

:24:57.:24:58.

The price of such airtime, questions that wouldn't have amused

:24:59.:25:09.

Victoria, like what takes their fancy for a TV supper.

:25:10.:25:12.

Yeah, I'm not so good with the spicy food.

:25:13.:25:14.

But if you do a takeaway they must never believe you

:25:15.:25:18.

when you're ordering it to the palace, right?

:25:19.:25:19.

It doesn't usually get ordered to the palace, Chris.

:25:20.:25:21.

Right, I see. We tend to go and pick it up.

:25:22.:25:24.

Go for a little visit around the area.

:25:25.:25:28.

He's not going to go to Chicken Cottage, is he?

:25:29.:25:31.

The professionals changed, the

:25:32.:25:33.

royals remained, and were set to work.

:25:34.:25:34.

And the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.

:25:35.:25:36.

He had 13 weeks at number one with Shape Of You.

:25:37.:25:40.

Before Harry came slong and spoiled his Easter.

:25:41.:25:41.

Sounds familiar! LAUGHTER

:25:42.:25:42.

Radio bringing together briefly two national institutions,

:25:43.:25:44.

So, number one is Ed Sheeran, Shape Of You.

:25:45.:25:48.

For a couple facing a life of pomp this was pure pleasure.

:25:49.:25:50.

When I'm on holiday would you mind stepping in?

:25:51.:25:52.

To be honest with you we could probably do a better job.

:25:53.:25:57.

Now on BBC One, it's time for the news where you are.
