:00:00. > :00:09.Jeremy Corbyn says he'll order a complete review

:00:10. > :00:13.of UK defence policy, if he wins the general election.

:00:14. > :00:16.Today, he didn't commit to renewing the Trident weapons system,

:00:17. > :00:22.but Labour later said it would back the nuclear deterrent.

:00:23. > :00:25.Many of the parties have been outlining proposals likely to appear

:00:26. > :00:35.There's a royal send off for tens of thousands of runners,

:00:36. > :00:42.In France, voting is almost over, in the first round of the eagerly

:00:43. > :00:53.And Arsenal go through to the FA Cup final, beating Manchester City

:00:54. > :01:20.Jeremy Corbyn says he'll order a review of "all aspects"

:01:21. > :01:24.of UK defence policy, if he becomes Prime Minister.

:01:25. > :01:26.The Labour leader, speaking to the BBC's Andrew Marr,

:01:27. > :01:30.also refused to confirm whether renewing the Trident nuclear

:01:31. > :01:34.weapons system would be in his party's election manifesto.

:01:35. > :01:36.But a spokesman later made it clear Labour did

:01:37. > :01:41.In response, the Conservatives argue Labour would "dismantle"

:01:42. > :01:55.Jeremy Corbyn has an army of loyal supporters who have kept him at the

:01:56. > :01:59.helm of the Labour Party despite opposition from many of his own MPs,

:02:00. > :02:02.but now he has to introduce himself to a wider audience and persuade

:02:03. > :02:08.voters he's ready to be Prime Minister. Some of his views have

:02:09. > :02:12.caused huge controversy, even within his own party. Mr Corbyn is the new

:02:13. > :02:17.deal -- unilateralist, opposed to nuclear weapons. So would Labour's

:02:18. > :02:21.manifesto include a commitment to renew Trident? We'll have a

:02:22. > :02:27.Strategic Defence Review which will include all aspects of defence, as

:02:28. > :02:30.most incoming governments do, in fact I think all have. We would look

:02:31. > :02:35.at the situation at that time. After the interview a party spokesman

:02:36. > :02:38.issued a statement clarifying the situation, saying the decision to

:02:39. > :02:42.renew Trident had been taken and Labour supported that. Mr Corbyn

:02:43. > :02:49.risked further controversy, when he was asked whether he would order a

:02:50. > :02:52.drone strike to order to kill the leader of so-called Islamic State,

:02:53. > :02:56.if such an opportunity arose. What I'd tell them is tell me the

:02:57. > :03:00.information you've got, tell me how accurate it is and tell me what you

:03:01. > :03:04.think can be achieved by this. But the point... I'm asking about

:03:05. > :03:09.decisions you would take us by minister. What is the objective

:03:10. > :03:13.here? Is the objective to start more strikes that may kill many innocent

:03:14. > :03:18.people, as has happened, or is the objective to get a political

:03:19. > :03:23.solution in Syria? Theresa May is dubbing this an election about

:03:24. > :03:28.Brexit, and immigration is a key issue. So does Mr Corbyn think that

:03:29. > :03:32.freedom of movement should continue after the UK leads the European

:03:33. > :03:35.Union? Free movement ends when we leave the European Union because

:03:36. > :03:38.clearly that's an intrinsic part of the membership of the European

:03:39. > :03:41.Union. There's also the question of EU nationals who are living in

:03:42. > :03:46.Britain, who should be given the right to live here, as British

:03:47. > :03:50.nationals living in Europe should be given the same decision. We then

:03:51. > :03:54.work out the system by those that are able to come here for working

:03:55. > :03:58.and so on. Labour is keen to focus on domestic issues in this election.

:03:59. > :04:02.On grammar schools, Mr Corbyn said he didn't like selective education.

:04:03. > :04:07.On the economy, he repeated his promise to set up a public national

:04:08. > :04:09.investment bank, to plough money into new industries and

:04:10. > :04:15.infrastructure. And on private service providers in the NHS, he

:04:16. > :04:18.said he would phase out those contracts and bring in directly

:04:19. > :04:23.employed staff. Jeremy Corbyn's supporters say he's been hampered by

:04:24. > :04:26.leader -- as leader by disloyal MPs under negative press. This election

:04:27. > :04:30.campaign is a chance for him to lay out his vision for Britain, to tell

:04:31. > :04:35.voters exactly what he stands for. But any confusion over policy will

:04:36. > :04:39.be seized on by his opponents. It's just chaos. Jeremy Corbyn is putting

:04:40. > :04:42.himself forward as the next Prime Minister of this country and I think

:04:43. > :04:46.what we've seen this morning is that we would basically have a coalition

:04:47. > :04:50.of chaos of Jeremy Corbyn became Prime Minister of this country. The

:04:51. > :04:54.Conservatives want to put leadership at the heart of this campaign and

:04:55. > :04:59.they'll portray Jeremy Corbyn as a man unable to take difficult

:05:00. > :05:02.decisions. But his allies say he's a man of principle and they believe

:05:03. > :05:09.voters will warm to him the more they hear his message. Vicki Young,

:05:10. > :05:12.BBC News, Westminster. Some of the other parties have been outlining

:05:13. > :05:19.proposals that could appear in their election manifestos.

:05:20. > :05:20.The Work and Pensions Secretary, Damian Green, has confirmed

:05:21. > :05:23.the Conservatives would cap the gas and electricity bills

:05:24. > :05:26.of millions of households, if they win the election.

:05:27. > :05:28.There will be a lot about energy policy in the manifesto.

:05:29. > :05:33.Obviously there will be more details then.

:05:34. > :05:36.But, absolutely, I think that people feel that some of the big energy

:05:37. > :05:38.companies have taken advantage of them with the tariffs.

:05:39. > :05:41.The Liberal Democrats have ruled out being part of another

:05:42. > :05:45.Their leader, Tim Farron, says there are no circumstances

:05:46. > :05:47.in which the party would prop up the Conservatives or Labour.

:05:48. > :05:49.Voting Liberal Democrat is not a proxy for anything else.

:05:50. > :05:53.Voting Liberal Democrat is a vote against a hard Brexit,

:05:54. > :05:56.a vote for the people to have the final say, not the politicians,

:05:57. > :06:00.and a vote for a decent, strong opposition.

:06:01. > :06:03.And the leader of Ukip, Paul Nuttall, says the party wants

:06:04. > :06:07.to ban full-face veils worn by a minority of Muslim women.

:06:08. > :06:09.He says the move's part of what he calls Ukip's

:06:10. > :06:15.58% of Muslim women are economically inactive.

:06:16. > :06:19.22% don't speak English to any great level.

:06:20. > :06:22.We need to ensure that these people are fully integrated into British

:06:23. > :06:29.society, and you can't do that if you are hidden behind a veil.

:06:30. > :06:32.In France, the polls close in less than half an hour,

:06:33. > :06:34.in the first round of one of the most anticipated

:06:35. > :06:36.and unpredictable presidential elections of recent times.

:06:37. > :06:39.11 candidates are standing, from across the political spectrum,

:06:40. > :06:42.far-left to far-right, with one of the leading

:06:43. > :06:48.candidates being Marine Le Pen of the Front National.

:06:49. > :06:50.Our Europe editor Katya Adler is at her election headquarters

:06:51. > :06:59.in Henin-Beaumont in northern France.

:07:00. > :07:06.Marine Le Pen likes to talk of revolution and she's chosen to do

:07:07. > :07:09.something quite revolutionary, by holding her election party outside

:07:10. > :07:12.Paris, away from those she calls the elite, and in northern France. The

:07:13. > :07:18.slogan of her campaign has been in the name of the people and she's

:07:19. > :07:21.managed to stay, consistently at the top of opinion poles. But then

:07:22. > :07:24.again, so have three other front runners. The election has been too

:07:25. > :07:28.close to call. It's been dubbed one of the most stressful in modern

:07:29. > :07:33.French history. Polls are about to close and we are waiting to hear who

:07:34. > :07:40.is in and who is out. My report contains flash photography.

:07:41. > :07:48.So security conscious following Thursday night's shooting.

:07:49. > :07:52.So nervous, too, about their political future.

:07:53. > :07:54.I'm scared because I don't know what's going to come out

:07:55. > :07:59.I don't want an unpredictable president.

:08:00. > :08:07.Far right and far left candidates are amongst the four front

:08:08. > :08:10.runners for president here, along with a centrist

:08:11. > :08:18.But while well heeled Paris may fear the extremes,

:08:19. > :08:25.We drove north, where unemployment and frustration levels are high.

:08:26. > :08:30.Henin-Beaumont is a far right stronghold.

:08:31. > :08:35.A former industrial town - once booming, no longer.

:08:36. > :08:39.This is the other face of France and the disillusioned,

:08:40. > :08:43.the disadvantaged and the marginalised have a big

:08:44. > :08:49.They hope to take back control from what they feel is a remote,

:08:50. > :08:56.What do the patrons of this cafe think could remedy

:08:57. > :09:04.TRANSLATION: All politicians promise change.

:09:05. > :09:15.TRANSLATION: There's politics for the rich and politics

:09:16. > :09:23.France today is divided, socially, economically and politically.

:09:24. > :09:25.It'll be clearer this evening who the next president could be,

:09:26. > :09:33.but not whether this country can unite around them.

:09:34. > :09:36.Our France correspondent Lucy Williamson is at Emmanuel Macron's

:09:37. > :09:50.There's been lots of talk about the significance of this election. How

:09:51. > :09:54.important is it, in your estimation? It could change the political face

:09:55. > :09:57.of France. It could change the political face of Europe. The

:09:58. > :10:01.leading four candidates going into the poll have radically different

:10:02. > :10:05.ideas about whether France should embrace change, or and its

:10:06. > :10:09.relationship with the European Union, and they are similarly

:10:10. > :10:13.divided over other issues, whether it's the economy, immigration, the

:10:14. > :10:16.best way to tackle terrorism. One of them even wants to change the powers

:10:17. > :10:22.of the President and the Parliament. So all of that, coupled with the

:10:23. > :10:27.unique unpredictability of this poll, has meant that voters really

:10:28. > :10:30.don't have much of a sense of who to expect, and also, until they hear

:10:31. > :10:33.the names announced later tonight they don't even know if they are

:10:34. > :10:37.going to have much of a choice when it comes to the next round in how to

:10:38. > :10:40.their economy or the relationship with Europe. Lucy, thank you, Lucy

:10:41. > :10:46.Williamson in Paris. Today's London Marathon

:10:47. > :10:48.saw a new world record, a pair of newlyweds among

:10:49. > :10:50.the runners, and a man who sacrificed his own time to help

:10:51. > :10:53.another competitor cross the line. 40,000 took part, and Joe

:10:54. > :10:58.Wilson was watching. The journey of 26 miles begins

:10:59. > :11:01.with a single hoot, but whose? Heads Together, the

:11:02. > :11:06.starters and the masses. David Weir in the pale blue top

:11:07. > :11:12.was desperately seeking a seventh To mellow the bitter

:11:13. > :11:18.disappointment of the Paralympics. At one point, I didn't think I'd

:11:19. > :11:24.even make the start line, so to come away and win,

:11:25. > :11:28.for me personally, is amazing. Missing from the field,

:11:29. > :11:32.last year's winner Jemima Sumgong. Kenya's Mary Keitany

:11:33. > :11:39.won it on her own. Westminster was witnessing

:11:40. > :11:42.a victory of human spirit. In a marathon where the women's

:11:43. > :11:46.race is separate, this Daniel Wanjiru's victory

:11:47. > :11:55.in the men's elite race Everywhere, personal limits

:11:56. > :11:59.were being stretched. The blue headbands

:12:00. > :12:02.of the Heads Together The charitable causes

:12:03. > :12:07.and accompanying outfits Success in the marathon

:12:08. > :12:16.takes many forms. When Matthew Rees spotted

:12:17. > :12:18.David Wyeth out on his feet with the end in sight,

:12:19. > :12:24.his instinct was to assist. They'd never met before.

:12:25. > :12:31.They made it. It's the same thing anyone

:12:32. > :12:34.else would have done. I just helped a guy

:12:35. > :12:36.when he was in need. I'm glad he got the line

:12:37. > :12:48.and I'm he's OK. Why time you never know who's going

:12:49. > :12:52.to be doing a presentation. Perhaps the only way to feel closer to the

:12:53. > :12:56.marathon is to run it yourself. There's always next year. Joe

:13:28. > :13:34.a murder enquiry after a man was run over and killed by his own car

:13:35. > :13:37.as it was being stolen. Michael Samwell, a 35-year-old

:13:38. > :13:42.former Royal Navy officer, died Our correspondent Andy Gill

:13:43. > :13:54.is in Chorlton-cum-Hardy. Michael Samwell was woken by a bang

:13:55. > :13:57.outside his home at 3am. Shouting was heard from the back of the

:13:58. > :14:01.property. That's when Mr Sandwell was found with serious multiple

:14:02. > :14:07.injuries. Police think he was run over by his own car as it was being

:14:08. > :14:11.stolen. He died in hospital about an hour later. The car itself was found

:14:12. > :14:15.abandoned and badly damaged, just a few miles away. So badly damaged in

:14:16. > :14:19.fact that the police think that for a short time it may have been driven

:14:20. > :14:22.on three wheels only. They are hoping that the detail that will

:14:23. > :14:26.stick in somebody's mind and they will come forward. They are also

:14:27. > :14:33.making a more general appeal for anyone who saw what happened here.

:14:34. > :14:39.You hear a noise downstairs and you go and see what it is.

:14:40. > :14:44.It's incredibly tragic that Michael's lost his life like this.

:14:45. > :14:49.The police want the perpetrators and the criminal fraternity in

:14:50. > :14:53.Manchester to search their consciences. They say whoever was

:14:54. > :14:58.responsible for this should not have any protection. Andy Gill in
