Tonight at 6: We're in Bradford where Labour has launched

:00:07.:00:10.

its election manifesto - promising policies for

:00:11.:00:13.

Jeremy Corbyn unveils what he calls, a "radical and responsible"

:00:14.:00:21.

plan for government, to help build a fairer society.

:00:22.:00:26.

Whatever your age or situation, people are under pressure,

:00:27.:00:28.

The proposals include nationalising the railways

:00:29.:00:40.

and scrapping tuition fees - Labour plans nearly ?50 billion

:00:41.:00:44.

of taxes on business and the highest earners.

:00:45.:00:48.

I've been talking to people here in Bradford about the manifesto

:00:49.:00:51.

and finding out whether it affects their voting intentions.

:00:52.:00:57.

I feel it's very very important that the state does have a bigger

:00:58.:01:00.

We really really need radical change right now.

:01:01.:01:04.

I've always voted Labour but now, with Jeremy Corbyn, I won't.

:01:05.:01:07.

After the death of the Moors murderer, Ian Brady -

:01:08.:01:16.

police say they won't close the case of Keith Bennett,

:01:17.:01:18.

The squeeze on the cost of living - inflation hits 2.7% -

:01:19.:01:26.

Ruined by rubbish, the British island in the South Pacific

:01:27.:01:32.

which has more plastic waste than anywhere else in the world.

:01:33.:01:36.

And coming up in Sportsday later in the hour on BBC News,

:01:37.:01:39.

an important night in the Premier League as Arsenal

:01:40.:01:41.

try to stay in touch with the top four.

:01:42.:02:10.

Good evening from Bradford - where the Labour leader

:02:11.:02:16.

Jeremy Corbyn has launched what he's calling a "radical

:02:17.:02:18.

and responsible" manifesto, promising to govern "for the many,

:02:19.:02:20.

Among his key policies are nationalising the railways,

:02:21.:02:23.

Scrapping tuition fees and reversing some benefit cuts.

:02:24.:02:32.

And spending ?37 billion on the health service in England.

:02:33.:02:36.

The pledges would be paid for - in part - by ?48 billion

:02:37.:02:39.

of tax rises on business and on the highest earners.

:02:40.:02:42.

We'll be looking at those figures in detail and speaking

:02:43.:02:48.

to voters here in Bradford but, first

:02:49.:02:50.

here's our political editor Laura Kuenssberg on Labour's

:02:51.:02:52.

Here it is. Labour's proposed contract with you. This would be his

:02:53.:03:10.

Cabinet. This is Jeremy Corbyn's deal. A massive moment for the man

:03:11.:03:19.

who two years ago was a total outsider. I'm delighted to introduce

:03:20.:03:27.

the Labour leader of the party and the next Prime Minister, Jeremy

:03:28.:03:31.

Corbyn. A plan he believes the country needs. Whatever your age and

:03:32.:03:38.

the situation, people are under pressure, struggling to make ends

:03:39.:03:43.

meet. Our manifesto is for you. Listing plenty of crowd pleaser is,

:03:44.:03:49.

here. Labour will scrap tuition fees, lifting the debt... APPLAUSE

:03:50.:03:59.

Labour is guaranteeing the triple lock to protect pensioners incomes.

:04:00.:04:08.

And Labour will take our railways back into public ownership and put

:04:09.:04:15.

passengers first. More childcare, more cash for the NHS, paid for by

:04:16.:04:20.

the richest 5% and taxes on business. With nearly ?50 billion of

:04:21.:04:27.

extra spending. Paid for by nearly ?50 billion of tax. We are asking

:04:28.:04:34.

the better off and the big corporations to pay a little bit

:04:35.:04:40.

more. And of course to stop dodging their tax obligations in the first

:04:41.:04:51.

place. This is a programme of hope. The Tory campaign by contrast is

:04:52.:05:00.

built on one word, fear. For good or for ill, you think it is time to pay

:05:01.:05:05.

for your ideas to tax more and spend more and to borrow more. Do you know

:05:06.:05:10.

what, every other country in the world says, why does Britain invest

:05:11.:05:14.

so little and pay itself so little while it allows touch grotesque

:05:15.:05:18.

levels of inequality to get worse, let's turn it around and do it the

:05:19.:05:25.

other way. Do you think the public are going to go to something as

:05:26.:05:30.

radical as this? Those earning over ?80,000, paying a bit more to pay

:05:31.:05:34.

for the National health service and our education, I think they will be

:05:35.:05:37.

positive and supportive. Great manifesto. That manifesto is full of

:05:38.:05:45.

popular policies and I'm fighting hard for a Labour victory and a

:05:46.:05:50.

government led by Jeremy Corbyn. Do you feel he is up to the job? Jeremy

:05:51.:05:56.

Corbyn has had to fight to keep his job, but broadly this is a manifesto

:05:57.:06:00.

built in his image. This is his radical offered to you. You

:06:01.:06:05.

manifesto is the biggest hypothetical expansion of the state

:06:06.:06:09.

in many years, but how exactly what his ideas work? Why in this

:06:10.:06:15.

manifesto is there no scale and no ballpark figure for how much it

:06:16.:06:18.

might cost the public purse and how you are prepared to borrow and

:06:19.:06:24.

renationalise four major industries? You don't know what the share price

:06:25.:06:28.

is at the time we do it, the same in the case of rail, there is a neutral

:06:29.:06:33.

cost and I believe in the same for water and the bond issue. You have

:06:34.:06:38.

an promised to reverse all the Tory welfare cuts, and for some of your

:06:39.:06:42.

supporters, that might be quite disappointing? -- you haven't

:06:43.:06:47.

promised. What I have said on the welfare cuts and the cat issue, we

:06:48.:06:51.

have set aside ?2 billion to deal with the worst effects of the

:06:52.:06:55.

benefit cap which will help a lot. You are not reversing the whole

:06:56.:07:01.

thing? You will see a lot of changes, but bear in mind we have

:07:02.:07:04.

had two weeks in order to prepare all of these policy issues because

:07:05.:07:10.

of the speed with which the election has been called, but I accept the

:07:11.:07:13.

challenge and I think we have put forward a very credible manifesto in

:07:14.:07:17.

a short space of time and we deserve some credit for that, actually. It

:07:18.:07:22.

will be up to the voters. I look forward to their decision. There has

:07:23.:07:26.

never been a question that he can pull shot -- Aykroyd, but he has

:07:27.:07:34.

three weeks now to be heard across the board. Policies are not just to

:07:35.:07:40.

can shout the loudest -- there has never been a question that he can

:07:41.:07:41.

pull a crowd. There are some big commitments as we

:07:42.:07:45.

heard. From extra funding for education

:07:46.:07:53.

and health to paying for more police officers and lifting the cap

:07:54.:07:56.

on public sector pay. Our economics editor,

:07:57.:07:58.

Kamal Ahmed has been taking a closer It's Labour's big offer

:07:59.:08:02.

to the voter, an extra ?25.3 billion for education,

:08:03.:08:08.

enough to build a thousand schools. ?7.7 billion for the NHS,

:08:09.:08:11.

that's quite a few hospitals. And a ?4 billion pay rise

:08:12.:08:16.

for the public sector. Add in other commitments on policing

:08:17.:08:19.

and the minimum wage, and the grand total of new spending

:08:20.:08:23.

is ?48.6 billion. The question Labour was asked

:08:24.:08:29.

today, how is it going Most of it will come

:08:30.:08:31.

from new business taxes. Corporation tax will be

:08:32.:08:35.

increased from 20% to 26%. Labour says that will raise nearly

:08:36.:08:47.

?20 billion. There will be a new levy on firms that pay employees

:08:48.:08:52.

over ?330,000 and Labour says that will raise ?1.3 billion. And there

:08:53.:08:59.

are the personal taxes. Those earning above ?80,000 will pay a tax

:09:00.:09:05.

rate of 45p in the pound. If you earn above that amount, the loss

:09:06.:09:11.

will be around ?400, and for those earning ?123,000 the rate rises to

:09:12.:09:16.

50p, that could lead some with a loss of up to ?23,000. Some are

:09:17.:09:22.

sceptical about whether such large amounts will ever be raised. In the

:09:23.:09:28.

end raising tax does bring in more money and if you put in all of their

:09:29.:09:32.

tax plans together that would raise quite a significant amount of money,

:09:33.:09:35.

but not as much as they are hoping, because corporate 's and companies

:09:36.:09:40.

will change their behaviour and individuals will change their

:09:41.:09:42.

behaviour and the scale of the changes are so weak they will be

:09:43.:09:47.

some money for certain coming in. Labour has also said it wants to

:09:48.:09:52.

borrow, ?25 billion a year more than the present government. That money

:09:53.:09:56.

will add to the national debt will be spent on high-speed railways and

:09:57.:10:00.

broadband and gas and electric facilities. All that injection of

:10:01.:10:08.

new money boosts the new economy? With interest rates so low that is a

:10:09.:10:12.

real opportunity to borrow at record low rates and that means you can

:10:13.:10:15.

back and the Bank of England is not able to stimulate the economy and so

:10:16.:10:21.

investment of this kind, to build the road and infrastructure, is

:10:22.:10:24.

really welcome. It is a very different prospectus, more tax and

:10:25.:10:34.

spend, and balance the books. Labour says it would like to nationalise

:10:35.:10:37.

Royal Mail, the water companies and national rail, and the costs are

:10:38.:10:42.

attached. If nothing else, the choice on the 8th of June is now a

:10:43.:10:43.

clear one. Labour's history in Bradford goes

:10:44.:10:48.

back more than a century. Today all three of the city's

:10:49.:10:50.

constituencies are Labour. I've spent the day here talking

:10:51.:10:54.

to people about the manifesto. Tucked into the foothills

:10:55.:11:02.

of the Pennines, Bradford has travelled from Victorian splendour

:11:03.:11:06.

to more challenging times. Unemployment is higher

:11:07.:11:09.

than the national average. Bradford West has a large immigrant

:11:10.:11:13.

community and it has one of the highest proportion of young

:11:14.:11:15.

voters in England and Wales. Just give me an idea of what kind

:11:16.:11:18.

of policy affects you. I feel it's very very important

:11:19.:11:25.

that the state does have a bigger We really really need

:11:26.:11:28.

radical change right now. The NHS is crumbling

:11:29.:11:34.

and the rail prices have been You sound like you are just

:11:35.:11:37.

parroting things that you've heard. The NHS is crumbling

:11:38.:11:40.

and our railways aren't working. I asked about Labour's

:11:41.:11:42.

plans for nationalisation There are many developed countries,

:11:43.:11:50.

many wealthy countries, around the world, that have elements

:11:51.:11:58.

of nationalisation that take into what they consider

:11:59.:12:00.

the important sphere, And the man who has to sell these

:12:01.:12:02.

policies to the voters? What is it about Jeremy Corbyn

:12:03.:12:08.

that attracts you? He speaks on the same

:12:09.:12:13.

level as Joe Bloggs. You are calling him a kind

:12:14.:12:17.

of Joe Bloggs, but don't we want He comes across as a

:12:18.:12:23.

normal human being. So Jeremy Corbyn has just been

:12:24.:12:26.

spelling out the policies that Labour is going to be putting

:12:27.:12:35.

to the people but what I'm picking up is that it's

:12:36.:12:39.

about more than that. At this dealership in Bradford East,

:12:40.:12:43.

Angela Morris was having some I've always voted Labour but now,

:12:44.:12:46.

with Jeremy Corbyn, I won't. He doesn't look like a Prime

:12:47.:12:52.

Minister for one thing, does he? You know, I couldn't imagine him

:12:53.:12:59.

going into number ten. Is it fair to judge a man

:13:00.:13:03.

on what he looks like and say that Dougal Keith has seen the business

:13:04.:13:06.

grow from a wooden shed to one that Ultimately what is important to me

:13:07.:13:14.

are my customers and my staff, and what they need more

:13:15.:13:20.

than anything else They've just announced today that

:13:21.:13:22.

they're going to buy That's millions and

:13:23.:13:25.

millions of pounds. You can't take it out of the till

:13:26.:13:32.

until you've put it in. So I just don't think they have

:13:33.:13:35.

a credible economic policy. Some of the view is there of what

:13:36.:13:43.

people in Bradford think about the manifesto. And what it means for

:13:44.:13:45.

them. Our political editor

:13:46.:13:52.

Laura Kuenssberg is with me. It is clear that voters are going to

:13:53.:14:00.

face a real choice. It is chalk and cheese in plenty of places, the

:14:01.:14:03.

biggest gap we have seen between the two parties for some time. Today we

:14:04.:14:09.

have seen that is because of Jeremy Corbyn's 21st-century version of old

:14:10.:14:17.

Labour, more tax and more spending and more state control,

:14:18.:14:21.

nationalisation in four areas of industry, bold changes that he would

:14:22.:14:26.

like to introduce. His calculation is that the frustrations of Britain

:14:27.:14:31.

in 2017 mean that in his view the electorate is ready, right and ready

:14:32.:14:34.

for something that is very different. He said to to me, look at

:14:35.:14:40.

the crowd to turn out to hear me speak, but there are two things with

:14:41.:14:44.

that, crowds that go to hear someone and necessarily representative of

:14:45.:14:47.

the whole voting general public. -- aren't necessarily. Ed Miliband

:14:48.:14:53.

moved a few inches to the left taking a couple of dainty steps and

:14:54.:14:57.

he lost by doing that. Jeremy Corbyn is taking one big strides to the

:14:58.:15:01.

left, so it is certainly a challenge for him. Thanks for joining us.

:15:02.:15:10.

And you can find more information on Labour's manifesto and other

:15:11.:15:12.

election issues at the bbc website bbc.co.uk/news.

:15:13.:15:17.

Now let's get the rest of the day's news with Reeta.

:15:18.:15:25.

Greater Manchester Police say the death of the Moors murderer,

:15:26.:15:27.

Ian Brady, won't stop them looking for the remains of Keith Bennett,

:15:28.:15:31.

who was the only one of his five child victims never found.

:15:32.:15:34.

Brady, and his partner Myra Hindley, abducted the 12-year-old

:15:35.:15:41.

in 1964 and refused to say where he was buried.

:15:42.:15:43.

His name will always be notorious, his face the image of evil,

:15:44.:15:50.

his crimes amongst the worst of the 20th Century

:15:51.:15:53.

He took children and tortured them and brought their bodies up

:15:54.:15:59.

On the desolate Moors, the police spent years

:16:00.:16:08.

Brady's accomplice was his girlfriend, Myra Hindley,

:16:09.:16:12.

Brady's death closes a chapter of criminal history.

:16:13.:16:14.

The youngest, Lesley Ann Downey, was just ten years old.

:16:15.:16:33.

I remember, when I sat on the stairs in Hattersley,

:16:34.:16:41.

And my mum had to go to identify Lesley.

:16:42.:16:43.

She just nodded you know, it still gets me now.

:16:44.:16:47.

At their trial, the pair were met with public jeers.

:16:48.:16:49.

Sentenced to life, Brady was at first taken to prison but,

:16:50.:16:52.

in 1985, he was transferred to Ashworth,

:16:53.:16:54.

In one, he claimed to feel remorse, but he never showed any sympathy

:16:55.:17:09.

to the family of 12-year-old Keith Bennett, whose

:17:10.:17:11.

It consumed the life of his mother, Winnie Johnson, who spoke

:17:12.:17:15.

I want it coming to an end and I want Keith found.

:17:16.:17:19.

When I found out that I'd got cancer and I said,

:17:20.:17:23.

"I want to know where Keith is before anything happens to me."

:17:24.:17:29.

Winnie often went to the Moors and never gave up hope

:17:30.:17:32.

The police say that virtually every week someone

:17:33.:17:36.

gets in touch touch purporting to be able to lead them to Keith,

:17:37.:17:39.

but they're not actively searching the Moors at the moment.

:17:40.:17:41.

They say though that they'll never close the case and Ian Brady's death

:17:42.:17:44.

Yesterday, knowing his death was imminent, Brady called his

:17:45.:17:47.

I don't think there was anything he really knew or had any

:17:48.:17:56.

information that would assist in the location

:17:57.:17:58.

Did Brady say anything which would give the families

:17:59.:18:01.

Today, a coroner said that Brady's ashes must not be

:18:02.:18:07.

scattered across these Moors, bad enough that he's

:18:08.:18:14.

taken his Saddleworth secret to the grave - controlling

:18:15.:18:16.

There's been more evidence today of the squeeze on living standards.

:18:17.:18:24.

Official figures show that last month inflation -

:18:25.:18:25.

that's the rise in prices - hit its highest level

:18:26.:18:28.

Our economics correspondent, Andy Verity, is here.

:18:29.:18:33.

We should be prayered for a nasty surprise? Be prepared. The price of

:18:34.:18:39.

fish up 8 periods. If you want to buy a book, up 7% the bus that takes

:18:40.:18:48.

you to the shops, transport, passenger transport by road up 10%.

:18:49.:18:51.

Prices are going down, toys and games. Petrol took a dip. The

:18:52.:18:57.

average price rise, if you look at that, the CBI measure, up by 2.7%.

:18:58.:19:03.

That hes a the highest it's been for three-and-a-half years. The

:19:04.:19:06.

inflation won't do you much harm if your pay is keeping up. If your pay

:19:07.:19:12.

rise is higher than 2.7%. For most people, that's definitely not the

:19:13.:19:15.

case. If you look at the latest count for how much pay rises are

:19:16.:19:20.

going up, 2.2%. That is data from February. We will get an update

:19:21.:19:24.

tomorrow. We have been here before. We had a squeeze on living standards

:19:25.:19:29.

where real incomes were falling between 2011-2014. Since then that

:19:30.:19:33.

squeeze has loosened. Our pay has gone up by more than prices, now

:19:34.:19:37.

it's tightening again. Pay isn't keeping up. If pay was going up by

:19:38.:19:41.

more than inflation, the Bank of England would be worried and might

:19:42.:19:45.

want to raise interest rates. As it is, it has no worries about that.

:19:46.:19:48.

Confident that this inflation is temporary. OK. Andy, many thanks.

:19:49.:20:11.

Lloyds Banking Group is returning to private hands nearly nine years

:20:12.:20:16.

after it received a Government bailout during the financial crisis.

:20:17.:20:19.

The UK gGovernment has now sold its remaining stake in the group,

:20:20.:20:22.

ending one of the largest bailouts of the crisis.

:20:23.:20:24.

The reprivatisation of Lloyds is expected

:20:25.:20:26.

President Trump has defended discussing material related

:20:27.:20:29.

to terrorism during a meeting with the Russian Foreign Minister.

:20:30.:20:31.

He was responding to newspaper reports that he shared classified

:20:32.:20:33.

information with Russia during last week's meeting with Sergei Lavrov

:20:34.:20:36.

Mr Trump said on Twitter that it was his "absolute right"

:20:37.:20:39.

to share information with Russia as he wanted it to "step

A Second World War bomb, discovered in Birmingham,

:20:43.:20:45.

Disposal experts say it contained almost 140

A 500 metre cordon was set up by police, who also closed the M6

:20:49.:20:54.

motorway in both directions while the explosion took place.

:20:55.:20:58.

In Wales, the nationalist party, Plaid Cymru, has

:20:59.:21:00.

launched its manifesto, promising to give the country

:21:01.:21:02.

The document pledges to "protect" Wales from what it calls a "tidal

:21:03.:21:08.

Policies include scrapping business rates and a publicly owned bank.

:21:09.:21:12.

Our Wales correspondent, Sian Lloyd, reports.

:21:13.:21:18.

Penygraig in the Rhondda Valley, it's bleen a Labour stronghold

:21:19.:21:21.

at Westminster for more than 100 years.

:21:22.:21:24.

It's represented in the Welsh Assembly by Plaid Cymru

:21:25.:21:27.

and the party has the parliamentary seat within its sights.

:21:28.:21:31.

No coincidence then that its leader, Leanne Wood,

:21:32.:21:34.

chose to launch her party's general election manifesto here.

:21:35.:21:42.

Voters tastes will need to change if Plaid is to make a breakthrough,

:21:43.:21:45.

one of the party's key pledges is to defend Wales post-Brexit.

:21:46.:21:47.

How are you going to appeal to voters, in places like this,

:21:48.:21:51.

who voted to leave the EU when you are seen as somebody

:21:52.:21:56.

We've carried on accepting it since the day that it was announced.

:21:57.:22:00.

We've put forward today a post-Brexit plan for Wales,

:22:01.:22:02.

a positive plan, to try to take advantage of opportunities that

:22:03.:22:05.

might arise as we leave the European Union.

:22:06.:22:12.

Plaid's telling voters it rather than Labour will best defend Welsh

:22:13.:22:14.

interests against what it calls cruel and wreckless Conservatives.

:22:15.:22:18.

Probably be for Plaid Cymru, to be honest with you.

:22:19.:22:21.

So that goes - That's more an anti-Labour vote

:22:22.:22:27.

Labour has let us down, year after year after year.

:22:28.:22:32.

Plaid Cymru, OK, they're a party of Wales, but I don't think

:22:33.:22:36.

they can fulfil anything, so the only other party to vote

:22:37.:22:39.

If it's to alter the Welsh political landscape,

:22:40.:22:44.

Plaid Cymru will need to change the voting habits of generations.

:22:45.:22:46.

It's nicknamed Plastic Island, and you can see why -

:22:47.:23:01.

38 million items were washed up on these beaches

:23:02.:23:03.

It's an uninhabited remote British territory

:23:04.:23:05.

in the South Pacific and has been found to have the highest

:23:06.:23:08.

density of plastic rubbish anywhere in the world.

:23:09.:23:10.

There's a growing mass of waste in the Pacific and the study authors

:23:11.:23:13.

say the island illustrates the scale of sea pollution.

:23:14.:23:16.

3,000 miles from the mainland, a remote paradise that's

:23:17.:23:22.

Its beaches are now more densely polluted with plastic

:23:23.:23:27.

Henderson Island is home only to South Pacific seabirds

:23:28.:23:40.

and marine wildlife and, with no human inhabitants,

:23:41.:23:42.

But an international team of researchers,

:23:43.:23:46.

who visited and studied the island, calculated that 17 tonnes

:23:47.:23:51.

of our litter, washed or dumped into rivers and oceans,

:23:52.:23:54.

Dr Alex Bond saw the devastation up close.

:23:55.:24:06.

We looked across the beaches in a variety of different plots

:24:07.:24:09.

and counted the pieces of plastic on the surface and down

:24:10.:24:11.

to about ten centimetres and from that we were able

:24:12.:24:14.

to extrapolate the area of the beaches, that's how we came

:24:15.:24:16.

up with our estimate of about 38 million

:24:17.:24:18.

It's really shocking because, as you step along the beach,

:24:19.:24:21.

the plastic is absolutely everywhere, no place is without it.

:24:22.:24:24.

Researchers say most of the plastic waste they could identify

:24:25.:24:26.

appeared to come from China, Japan and Chile.

:24:27.:24:28.

Most plastic floats and it can take centuries to degrade,

:24:29.:24:31.

so when it reaches the ocean it stays at the surface

:24:32.:24:33.

Henderson Island sits just next to a vast circular system

:24:34.:24:39.

of ocean currents called the South Pacific Gyre and that's

:24:40.:24:41.

depositing plastics from thousands of miles away onto its beaches.

:24:42.:24:45.

This is just a snapshot of the millions of tonnes

:24:46.:24:47.

of rubbish in our oceans, but the researchers hope it might

:24:48.:24:50.

persuade us to end a toxic addiction to plastic.

:24:51.:24:52.

Time for a look at the weather, here's Nick Miller.

:24:53.:25:03.

If yesterday the rain had us talking, today it's about the warmth

:25:04.:25:10.

and nice weather from north-east Scotland into East Anglia and

:25:11.:25:14.

south-east England and warmth as well. The UK reported its highest

:25:15.:25:22.

temperature of the year so far. 26 Celsius, 22, Scotland's highest

:25:23.:25:24.

temperature of the year so far. There has been rain in parts of

:25:25.:25:27.

England and Wales. There will be again over night. The cloud making

:25:28.:25:32.

for a mild and muggy night. It's feeling fresher in Scotland and

:25:33.:25:37.

Northern Ireland, under clear skies a chillier night here. Watch out for

:25:38.:25:42.

the northern lights, they make may make an appearance. Scotland and

:25:43.:25:45.

Northern Ireland will have pleasant sunny spells, showers for north-west

:25:46.:25:48.

Scotland, doughing in Northern Ireland. You will see a large swathe

:25:49.:25:52.

of wet weather ebth affecting many parts of England and Wales leading

:25:53.:25:55.

to a wet day. Western fringes of England and Wales may brighten up

:25:56.:26:00.

later in the day. It will be cool with that rain, 10-13 degrees,

:26:01.:26:04.

pleasant in the sunny spells. In Scotland and Northern Ireland, warm

:26:05.:26:08.

and humid again, in East Anglia and south-east England. Where those few

:26:09.:26:11.

places stay dry it will turn wetter going into the evening rush-hour.

:26:12.:26:15.

The potential here for torrential thundery bursts. By the time it's

:26:16.:26:19.

said and done there are parts of southern, central and eastern

:26:20.:26:25.

England getting 20-40 millimetres of rain. It will be difficult for

:26:26.:26:31.

travelling. It will clear away, Thursday sunny spells across the

:26:32.:26:34.

board. Scattered showers will develop. It will feel pleasant when

:26:35.:26:40.

the sun makes an appearance, cooler when the showers move through. If

:26:41.:26:44.

you catch a shower it could be heavy. For the weekend a mixture of

:26:45.:26:49.

sunshine and showers. Warm when you get sunshine, temperatures come down

:26:50.:26:53.

with a shower comes through after mild and warm nights, those nights

:26:54.:26:57.

will be chillier. That's it for now. Reeta. Thank you, Nick. A reminder

:26:58.:27:08.

of our main story. Jeremy Corbyn has launched the Labour manifesto

:27:09.:27:16.

promising changes

:27:17.:27:17.
