This is Breakfast on Friday the 2nd of June.

:00:07.:00:09.

The main headline this morning:

:00:10.:00:12.

International condemnation for President Trump

:00:13.:00:13.

after he pulls America out of the Paris agreement

:00:14.:00:15.

Theresa May has told the President she's disappointed

:00:16.:00:28.

with his decision, while European leaders said there'd

:00:29.:00:30.

We all share the same sponsor ability. Make our planet great

:00:31.:00:46.

again. Good morning. There are just six

:00:47.:01:10.

days to go until the general election and we have bought the sofa

:01:11.:01:15.

to Scotland's ancient capital, Dunfermline. What does the politics

:01:16.:01:22.

mean for the money in our pockets and how does that affect how people

:01:23.:01:27.

vote in six days' time? We have come to meet local voters and local

:01:28.:01:31.

businesses to find out what it means for them. Matt is also here with the

:01:32.:01:37.

weather. Good morning. I am in the grounds of Dunfermline Abbey finding

:01:38.:01:45.

out what place it plays in the town's history. Brighter and fresher

:01:46.:01:49.

conditions on the way and that lasts into the weekend. I will tell you

:01:50.:01:52.

what that means for you in 15 minutes.

:01:53.:01:57.

We are in the historic surgery of Dunfermline in the Kingdom of Fife.

:01:58.:02:06.

Let me set the scene will be here all morning with the sofa talking to

:02:07.:02:10.

voters and politicians about the issues that matter to them six days

:02:11.:02:14.

ahead of the general election. You will see in the background, Lars, a

:02:15.:02:20.

historian. You'll be teaching us about Robert the Bruce who is buried

:02:21.:02:25.

here. Also this was home to Charles I. Charles I, Charles VI, I will

:02:26.:02:32.

explain later. He will take us through the history. We will

:02:33.:02:35.

hopefully guide you through the issues that matter to people here.

:02:36.:02:41.

Then is in the batty van. He will be cooking up, I think, Sam Lorne

:02:42.:02:50.

sausage and Sam tattie scorns, later. -- butty van. One of the

:02:51.:02:57.

reasons we are here, over the last three elections glad this

:02:58.:03:01.

constituency has seen a Lib Dem leadership, a Labour leadership and

:03:02.:03:05.

the SNP leadership. It is constituencies like this that could

:03:06.:03:09.

make such a closely fought election. We'll be talking about migration. We

:03:10.:03:14.

will be talking about Scottish independence and we will hear what

:03:15.:03:17.

it is like for everyday folk and what they are like ahead of the

:03:18.:03:23.

general election. Also some music. We want to hear what issues matter

:03:24.:03:27.

to you and what we should be talking about. You can get in touch on the

:03:28.:03:34.

website, or you can get in touch with us on Twitter and Facebook.

:03:35.:03:39.

Time for the news from Charlie. I will be with you all morning as

:03:40.:03:44.

well. I think the sun will shine. Matt will keep us updated as well.

:03:45.:03:49.

Theresa May has expressed her disappointment over

:03:50.:03:52.

President Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from

:03:53.:03:55.

In a phone call with Mr Trump, the Prime Minister stressed that

:03:56.:03:58.

Britain remains committed to the agreement.

:03:59.:04:00.

Our North America correspondent, David Willis, has more.

:04:01.:04:05.

He had promised this to the people who voted him into office.

:04:06.:04:09.

Nonetheless, it was a momentous announcement and one

:04:10.:04:11.

which drew swift condemnation from around the world.

:04:12.:04:15.

As president, I have one obligation, and that obligation

:04:16.:04:19.

President Trump believes in a nutshell that the powers Accord

:04:20.:04:25.

impedes his ability to restore jobs to parts of the American heartland,

:04:26.:04:32.

blighted by the move away from fossil fuels,

:04:33.:04:34.

Time, in his view, to put America first.

:04:35.:04:38.

A philosophy summed up in one short phrase.

:04:39.:04:45.

I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris.

:04:46.:04:52.

Pittsburgh's mayor, Bill Peduto, swiftly responded, saying his city

:04:53.:05:02.

considered the heart of the American steel industry, actually

:05:03.:05:04.

Donald Trump had previously said global warning was a hoax

:05:05.:05:07.

He is now saying he'd be willing to renegotiate the Paris Accord,

:05:08.:05:11.

albeit on terms more favourable to the US, European leaders want

:05:12.:05:14.

France will not give up the fight. I reaffirm that the Paris agreement

:05:15.:05:34.

remains irreversible and will be implemented. Not just by France, but

:05:35.:05:37.

by all the other nations. Those gathered outside

:05:38.:05:42.

the White House to protest President's decision believed

:05:43.:05:44.

the departure of the second largest polluter on the planet

:05:45.:05:46.

will have a dramatic impact Donald Trump believes his decision

:05:47.:05:48.

represents an assertion of American sovereignty whilst his critics

:05:49.:05:59.

believe it is precisely Let's get some reaction. Now our

:06:00.:06:16.

political correspondent. It is not that often that a British Prime

:06:17.:06:21.

Minister is so publicly and directly opposed to a US president. That is

:06:22.:06:26.

right. Downing Street said President Trump called Theresa May and that is

:06:27.:06:30.

when she expressed her disappointment at his decision. She

:06:31.:06:34.

said the UK remains committed to Paris, which she said was the right

:06:35.:06:39.

framework. There has been criticism from opposition parties that Theresa

:06:40.:06:44.

May was not more forceful in her condemnation. Labour says, this is a

:06:45.:06:51.

derelict of duty on the part of Theresa May not to try to persuade

:06:52.:06:55.

Donald Trump to think again. They are calling it an act of global

:06:56.:07:01.

generational vandalism. The Lib Dems are saying if the special

:07:02.:07:05.

relationship means anything, this is exactly the time when Theresa May

:07:06.:07:09.

should be able to use her influence over President Trump to try to

:07:10.:07:13.

persuade him to make a different decision. The Government says we are

:07:14.:07:17.

taking a different approach to how we express our opinion. Now for the

:07:18.:07:27.

response from China. Very publicly, China is on board with this project.

:07:28.:07:35.

What has the reaction been? Beijing has not explicitly criticise Donald

:07:36.:07:39.

Trump yet for pulling out of the Paris deal but said, you want to

:07:40.:07:45.

pull out of it, we will stand by Europe and other nations and will

:07:46.:07:49.

charge ahead with it. Having a look at the newspapers here... Same

:07:50.:07:59.

images, very different to the images of Donald Trump at the Nato summit

:08:00.:08:04.

last week. If anyone is under any illusion as to the wider impact of

:08:05.:08:10.

this, you can see there could be greater geostrategic changes in

:08:11.:08:14.

terms of China taking on leadership change, alongside Europe, Britain,

:08:15.:08:20.

Australia, other nations and pushing ahead with this climate deal. Thank

:08:21.:08:25.

you very much. More on that story throughout the programme.

:08:26.:08:30.

The Conservatives have denied their immigration

:08:31.:08:31.

policy is in confusion, after Theresa May suggested

:08:32.:08:33.

she wanted net migration to be reduced to under a hundred

:08:34.:08:36.

The Brexit Secretary, David Davis, said it was no more than an aim.

:08:37.:08:40.

Our Political Correspondent, Gary O'Donoghue reports.

:08:41.:08:43.

Cutting the overall immigration numbers to the tens of thousands has

:08:44.:08:45.

been Conservative policy for seven years.

:08:46.:08:48.

But it's proved incredibly hard to achieve.

:08:49.:08:51.

Last year, the population increased due to immigration went up by almost

:08:52.:08:54.

With around 175,000 of those people coming from outside the EU,

:08:55.:09:06.

the group over which Britain already has full control.

:09:07.:09:08.

The tens of thousands targeted again in the Conservative manifesto.

:09:09.:09:10.

Yesterday, a Home Office minister appeared to put one on it.

:09:11.:09:30.

You are saying tens of thousands in five years' time?

:09:31.:09:33.

Over the course of the Parliament, yes.

:09:34.:09:34.

EU and non-EU, down to tens of thousands?

:09:35.:09:42.

We want to see migration levels coming down to sustainable levels,

:09:43.:09:45.

of thousands, over the course of the next Parliament.

:09:46.:09:49.

Those comments were put to Theresa May while she was out campaigning.

:09:50.:09:51.

She was asked the question whether the target would be down

:09:52.:09:54.

to tens of thousands in five years, to which she said that's

:09:55.:09:57.

But there was a different emphasis from the Brexit

:09:58.:10:00.

Are you saying it is Tory Party policy if you're re-elected

:10:01.:10:04.

as the Government next Thursday to get it down to 100,000 within

:10:05.:10:06.

We can't promise within five years, that's the thing.

:10:07.:10:11.

Downing Street has denied there is any confusion

:10:12.:10:13.

or disagreement over the timetable but, even the appearance

:10:14.:10:15.

of a different is not what Mrs May needs in her last

:10:16.:10:18.

Campaigning in York, Jelly called also the Labour government will pump

:10:19.:10:35.

?250 million into industry. Vince Cable believes both Labour and the

:10:36.:10:40.

Tories have turned their backs on business and warns trade could drop

:10:41.:10:44.

by a third following Britain's to force from the EU.

:10:45.:10:49.

The Met Police say they have so far found no records of any calls

:10:50.:10:53.

to the Anti-Terrorist hotline in relation to the Manchester

:10:54.:10:55.

bomber, despite a number of people saying they had reported concerns

:10:56.:10:57.

It comes as Greater Manchester Police have released new CCTV

:10:58.:11:01.

footage, showing Abedi in the city in the four days leading

:11:02.:11:03.

Detectives say they're now concentrating their investigation

:11:04.:11:06.

on the Rusholme area and are appealing for witnesses

:11:07.:11:08.

More than 30 people are reported to have died at a casino

:11:09.:11:18.

in the Philippines, where a gunman opened fire before killing himself.

:11:19.:11:22.

The attacker also set fire to gaming tables.

:11:23.:11:24.

Authorities say most of the people who lost their lives

:11:25.:11:26.

Police had feared the attack was terrorist related,

:11:27.:11:29.

but now suggest the motive was robbery.

:11:30.:11:36.

The number of patients waiting from more than six months for routine

:11:37.:11:42.

operations and treatment has tripled.

:11:43.:11:46.

That's according to The Royal College of Surgeons which analysed

:11:47.:11:49.

data from March 2013 - a time when targets were being met.

:11:50.:11:51.

NHS England declined to respond directly to the six-month figures.

:11:52.:11:54.

But a spokesperson has said "the NHS has cut the number of patients

:11:55.:11:57.

waiting more than a year for treatment by nearly 13,000

:11:58.:12:01.

The Bulgarian linesman who failed to spot Diego Maradona's infamous

:12:02.:12:10.

"hand of God" goal in the 1986 World Cup has died.

:12:11.:12:13.

Many of you will remember how the Argentinan leapt to punch

:12:14.:12:16.

the ball past Peter Shilton into the net, during the side's

:12:17.:12:18.

Bogdan Dochev, who died at the age of 80, said

:12:19.:12:25.

the incident stayed with him, his whole life.

:12:26.:12:31.

He described Maradona as a great footballer, but a small man -

:12:32.:12:34.

With less than a week to go until the general election,

:12:35.:12:52.

Our focus is on Scotland. The art in Dunfermline and Naga is there for

:12:53.:13:04.

us. It is a rather lovely morning. We

:13:05.:13:15.

crossed the Forth Bridge to see this historic home, the ancient capital

:13:16.:13:21.

of Scotland. Also, home to goal. St Andrew's is just up the road. Two

:13:22.:13:25.

men came from here, John Reid and Robert Lockhart. They first took the

:13:26.:13:29.

game to the United States will do you know I was like to play a bit of

:13:30.:13:37.

golf when I'm up there. See, one for each... Not bad at all. Two years in

:13:38.:13:44.

Scotland was a political landslide. 56 of the 59 seats in Westminster

:13:45.:13:49.

were won by the SNP. The Conservatives Lib Dems had one seat

:13:50.:13:57.

each. Why are we here in Dunfermline in East Fife? It is a constituency

:13:58.:14:02.

that has had the SNP, the Lib Dems and the Labour Party all rain over

:14:03.:14:07.

the last three elections. Some history as wealth in May have

:14:08.:14:11.

spotted this man dressed as Robert the Bruce was that this is where he

:14:12.:14:15.

was buried. A history lesson for you as well for people very concerned

:14:16.:14:20.

about what is happening. There are six days to the general election. We

:14:21.:14:24.

have been asking what people feel strongly about. Butty van went to

:14:25.:14:30.

Edinburgh and that is where we got some views. Let's talk about the

:14:31.:14:44.

general election. My concern, and I am sure this is not uncommon, I

:14:45.:14:48.

would rather have a Labour government than a Conservative

:14:49.:14:53.

government. But I'm not comfortable endorsing Mr Corbyn as Prime

:14:54.:14:57.

Minister. I prefer strawberry. I feel like the power is shifting away

:14:58.:15:03.

from the Tories. Not everyone will fight that. I think I may be orange

:15:04.:15:10.

this time. I prefer their environmental policies to those of

:15:11.:15:15.

the others on offer. And also because I am not convinced that

:15:16.:15:20.

Brexit is the right way to go. I have always been a socialist, a

:15:21.:15:25.

Labour supporter, but I am definitely not a Jeremy Corbyn fan.

:15:26.:15:29.

How are you going to go to? Which bit of fruit fits you? The

:15:30.:15:35.

strawberry. Even though you are not a Jeremy Corbyn found. I am not a

:15:36.:15:42.

Jeremy Corbyn fan but I am even less of a Diane Abbott fan but I'm going

:15:43.:15:46.

to vote for the party. I am a banana. I kind of believe what they

:15:47.:15:52.

believe in. The SNP has faults but they do have a solid voice and they

:15:53.:15:55.

speak for the majority people up here. I am not all about the

:15:56.:16:03.

independence but supporting Scotland and looking after Scotland, I think

:16:04.:16:09.

they are the right people. I would say the straw poll has been

:16:10.:16:10.

fruitful. This is all about what you think as

:16:11.:16:22.

an election. We are joined by a host of voters. Good morning. Let's find

:16:23.:16:29.

out some views. Good morning to you from what are you passionate about?

:16:30.:16:36.

Independence is a really big issue. How's that influenced your vote at

:16:37.:16:40.

all? Have you changed party you might be voting for? Are you

:16:41.:16:46.

undecided? I have considered voting Labour but I will vote SNP. We will

:16:47.:16:52.

talk to the politicians from all the main parties. What is on your mind

:16:53.:16:57.

ahead of the general election? I am on the same subject but with a

:16:58.:17:01.

different point of view. The prospect of an independent

:17:02.:17:04.

referendum is a big worry. We have had the referendum and made a

:17:05.:17:08.

decision. The polls say that people don't want it. I want Mrs Sturgeon

:17:09.:17:13.

to take it off the table. We will talk a lot more about independence.

:17:14.:17:19.

It is a big issue in Scotland. And the whole idea of the independence

:17:20.:17:25.

vote. What is going on in your mind? Any social issue. Social collusion

:17:26.:17:29.

is a massive issue. Anything that affects social cohesion and the

:17:30.:17:34.

impact of Brexit on small business. When you say that, you talking about

:17:35.:17:39.

migration? I am talking about everything that influences how well

:17:40.:17:43.

we get along as a group of people. It could be poverty or mental

:17:44.:17:48.

health. Any issue that creates social unrest. Good morning. What is

:17:49.:17:54.

playing on your mind ahead of the election? The key issues for me are

:17:55.:18:01.

equality and the impact of poverty. I am a teacher at a local high

:18:02.:18:05.

school. We are seeing every day pupils who are affected by

:18:06.:18:09.

government cuts. As teachers, we are having to manage that and tried to

:18:10.:18:13.

remove all barriers regarding education. It is a tricky job. We're

:18:14.:18:19.

up for it. Others like to see what the other parties can offer to try

:18:20.:18:26.

to help. Lots of views to get through, lots of issues to talk

:18:27.:18:28.

about throughout the programme. Good morning. Certainly, this

:18:29.:18:45.

morning, it is very peaceful. I am in the surroundings of Dunfermline

:18:46.:18:49.

Abbey, a centrepiece to the city and a centrepiece to Scottish history.

:18:50.:18:53.

It is the final resting place of Robert the Bruce. If we have a look

:18:54.:18:57.

at this latest addition to the abbey, you can see his links to the

:18:58.:19:02.

city are well and truly in place. There are grey skies overhead. A bit

:19:03.:19:08.

of a dull start but things have brightened up. We have fresher

:19:09.:19:13.

weather coming in from the West. Still humid in the east. To get from

:19:14.:19:18.

one to the other we need a weather front. That stretches from eastern

:19:19.:19:22.

Scotland done through north-west England and Wales will do this is

:19:23.:19:26.

where we have rain in the next few hours. It is slowly pushing

:19:27.:19:32.

eastwards. A fine start in western Scotland and Northern Ireland. The

:19:33.:19:37.

rain will ease over the coming hours full bill be wet for a while across

:19:38.:19:44.

north-west England. The rain pushing across the Pennines. Not only is it

:19:45.:19:49.

drives start with low cloud and mysterious, it is a humid and murky

:19:50.:19:54.

start. Temperatures approaching 20 degrees. It will not last all day

:19:55.:19:59.

long. As we go through to the western half of the country, you can

:20:00.:20:03.

see the rain is starting to pushing. That fragments as it goes eastwards.

:20:04.:20:08.

As it comes into contact with rising temperatures in the south and east

:20:09.:20:12.

we could see some nasty thunderstorms. Minor risk of

:20:13.:20:19.

flooding. We could see temperatures reach 26-28. Much pressure and to

:20:20.:20:22.

the day but pleasant enough in the sunshine. Into tonight, we will

:20:23.:20:29.

continue to see a few showers across parts of central and eastern

:20:30.:20:34.

England. The odd rumble of thunder across East Anglia and parts of

:20:35.:20:39.

Kent. Most places will become dry. Pressure than the night just gone.

:20:40.:20:44.

Temperatures down into single figures as you start the weekend.

:20:45.:20:50.

Still muddy in the South east corner. Full Saturday, it looks like

:20:51.:20:53.

some of the driest and brightest weather will be across parts of

:20:54.:20:58.

England and Wales. Scotland and Northern Ireland will see frequent

:20:59.:21:03.

showers develop. In between a bit of sunshine around. Is it enough when

:21:04.:21:07.

the sunshine is out. Temperatures are down on recent days, probably

:21:08.:21:11.

high teens at best. Same temperatures as we go into Sunday.

:21:12.:21:18.

Recreate a chance in England and Wales seeing a few showers from west

:21:19.:21:22.

to east parts of northern England and North Wales will get away with

:21:23.:21:26.

the largely dry day on Sunday. Showers. In. We move into fresh

:21:27.:21:31.

conditions as we go into the weekend and the start of next week. A

:21:32.:21:35.

reasonable amount of sunshine as well. That is how it is looking.

:21:36.:21:38.

Back to you. Not too much rain here in Durham

:21:39.:21:50.

firm then. When voting in a Westminster election you must think

:21:51.:21:54.

about devolution. Some of the powers to decide on the issues are down to

:21:55.:22:00.

Holyrood. Those are the big issues that will affect people's lies. How

:22:01.:22:08.

should devolved issues matter. Lorna Gordon has been to Stirling and has

:22:09.:22:10.

been finding out. Sterling is a place

:22:11.:22:15.

which is at the heart of the story of Scotland and a constituency

:22:16.:22:21.

which reflects the history Over the last three decades,

:22:22.:22:23.

people here went from sending a Conservative MP to Westminster,

:22:24.:22:26.

to favouring Labour. Then, at the last election,

:22:27.:22:30.

there was a big swing to the SNP. So, what issues do the hairdressing

:22:31.:22:37.

students at Raploch Community Campus think that for them in this election

:22:38.:22:41.

are cutting through? The working class, like I feel

:22:42.:22:44.

the rich get richer Education and the National Health

:22:45.:22:50.

Service has got to be stepped up. Next week's election will be

:22:51.:22:58.

the seventh time Scots have gone Mark, who owns a bike shop believes

:22:59.:23:01.

the question of what you are voting for and when and wheather the issues

:23:02.:23:08.

are devolved or reserved, It's more complicated certainly

:23:09.:23:11.

than it is in England. In England, basically you've got one

:23:12.:23:25.

centre, here we have two. A lot of people aren't quite sure

:23:26.:23:32.

where the power lies - either So you've got to know really exactly

:23:33.:23:35.

where everything is before Have you made up your mind

:23:36.:23:38.

about which way you are going Yes, I have and I shall be

:23:39.:23:43.

voting Conservative. I seem to think that it's the party

:23:44.:23:46.

for small businesses, So I feel more comfortable

:23:47.:23:49.

with their policies. My heart has always been

:23:50.:23:52.

more towards the Labour For many in Scotland, the choice

:23:53.:23:58.

of independence or the Union But it's not always

:23:59.:24:04.

as clear-cut as you'd think. I think I'm a mass of contradictions

:24:05.:24:13.

because I am actually a member of the SNP,

:24:14.:24:15.

but I'm not pro-independence. I'm an instinctive belonger,

:24:16.:24:18.

I want to belong to the UK, Yeah, I'm slightly different in that

:24:19.:24:20.

I am pro-Europe and I would rather Stirling is not a marginal,

:24:21.:24:30.

the SNP has a big majority here. But this is a constituency

:24:31.:24:39.

where the electorate has shown it's open to changing its mind and if,

:24:40.:24:43.

and that's a big if, the seat changed hands again,

:24:44.:24:47.

it might indicate yet another shift in Scotland's political

:24:48.:24:51.

allegiances is underway. Lorna is with me now. How will

:24:52.:25:10.

devolution affects the way that people vote? Strictly speaking, it

:25:11.:25:15.

should not. Issues like health and education are decided at Holyrood

:25:16.:25:19.

was whoever is elected to Westminster does not really have a

:25:20.:25:23.

say about how those areas are run on the ground. Inevitably these areas

:25:24.:25:29.

are cared about by voters. They influence the way they think.

:25:30.:25:35.

Unionist parties in Scotland are, to a degree, using this general

:25:36.:25:40.

election to try and attack the SNP on its record in government at

:25:41.:25:44.

Westminster. The SNP, for their part, so there is much to be proud

:25:45.:25:49.

of their record in this area. One issue we were talking about to

:25:50.:25:55.

voters, we spoke to people in Edinburgh and all over. Migration

:25:56.:26:00.

and Brexit. These will play quite highly in peoples lives. There are

:26:01.:26:06.

elements of the argument that play in Scotland. I think it is more a

:26:07.:26:12.

political argument than one that is uppermost in most voters minds.

:26:13.:26:18.

Certainly Brexit is an issue. Up here, everyone I spoke to in

:26:19.:26:23.

sterling, in that BT, had thoughts on it. The parties are positioning

:26:24.:26:31.

themselves on it as well. The parties had strong views on it.

:26:32.:26:35.

There are the three main Unionist parties who are very much opposed to

:26:36.:26:39.

a second independence referendum. They are making it a campaigning

:26:40.:26:44.

issue. Particularly the Conservatives and SNP saying, what

:26:45.:26:49.

we would like, the SNP argues, is the second independence referendum

:26:50.:26:53.

on the terms of the Brexit deal alone. You can hear them, can't you?

:26:54.:27:01.

It is the Dunfermline and district hidebound. Dash pipe band. Now the

:27:02.:27:09.

news, travel and weather where you are.

:27:10.:30:33.

Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt here

:30:34.:30:45.

in the studio, and Naga Munchetty is in Dunfermline.

:30:46.:30:52.

Our focus is on Scotland and the general election campaign there.

:30:53.:30:58.

We'll be back out there soon, but first a summary

:30:59.:31:00.

Theresa May is disappointed with Donald Trump withdrawing America

:31:01.:31:08.

from the Paris Accord. Our political correspondent,

:31:09.:31:13.

Leila Nathoo, is in Westminster We have a phone call made by Donald

:31:14.:31:23.

Trump to Theresa May in what appears to be a relatively frank discussion?

:31:24.:31:28.

Theresa May told Donald Trump she was disappointed with his decision

:31:29.:31:34.

and she stressed the UK was committed to remaining signed up to

:31:35.:31:37.

Paris and about was the right framework. Although there was a

:31:38.:31:42.

difference of opinion, there has been some criticism of Theresa May

:31:43.:31:46.

that she wasn't more critical of Donald Trump's decision and didn't

:31:47.:31:51.

try to use what influence she may have over Donald Trump to try to

:31:52.:31:56.

persuade him to change his mind. Labour said it was a dereliction of

:31:57.:32:00.

duty on her behalf and they are causing Donald Trump's decision an

:32:01.:32:05.

act of global environmental vandalism. They say we have a

:32:06.:32:11.

special relationship and we should be able to tell Donald Trump like it

:32:12.:32:19.

is. Labour say Theresa May cannot stand up to Donald Trump when she

:32:20.:32:23.

said because of the need to stay close to the USA after Brexit. But

:32:24.:32:30.

America said they did not join up today letter of condemnation. We'll

:32:31.:32:35.

have more on that decision later in the programme.

:32:36.:32:38.

The Conservatives have denied their immigration

:32:39.:32:40.

policy is in confusion, after a minister played down Theresa

:32:41.:32:42.

The Prime Minister appeared to signal her aim was to reduce net

:32:43.:32:46.

migration to under 100,000 in the next five years.

:32:47.:32:48.

But her Brexit Secretary David Davis sounded a more cautious note,

:32:49.:32:51.

The Met Police say they have so far found no records of any calls

:32:52.:32:56.

to the Anti-Terrorist hotline in relation to the Manchester

:32:57.:32:59.

bomber, despite a number of people saying they had reported concerns

:33:00.:33:01.

It comes as Greater Manchester Police have released new CCTV

:33:02.:33:09.

footage, showing Abedi in the city in the four days leading

:33:10.:33:12.

Detectives say they're now concentrating their investigation

:33:13.:33:17.

on the Rusholme area and are appealing for witnesses

:33:18.:33:19.

More than 30 people are reported to have died at a casino

:33:20.:33:24.

in the Philippines, where a gunman opened fire before killing himself.

:33:25.:33:27.

The attacker also set fire to gaming tables.

:33:28.:33:30.

Authorities say most of the people who lost their lives

:33:31.:33:33.

Police had feared the attack was terrorist related, but now

:33:34.:33:38.

The number of patients waiting more than six months for routine

:33:39.:33:46.

operations and treatment has nearly tripled over four years in England.

:33:47.:33:49.

That's according to The Royal College of Surgeons, which analysed

:33:50.:33:52.

data from March 2013, a time when targets were being met.

:33:53.:33:55.

NHS England declined to respond directly to the six-month figures.

:33:56.:33:57.

But a spokesperson has said "the NHS has cut the number of patients

:33:58.:34:01.

waiting more than a year for treatment by nearly 13,000

:34:02.:34:03.

A ten month old boy has crawled to victory to be crowned

:34:04.:34:17.

The competition, held every year in the capital Vilnius,

:34:18.:34:26.

sees babies scramble across a five metre long red carpet,

:34:27.:34:30.

It was touch and go for a while, but here is young Mykolas Pociunas

:34:31.:34:38.

emerging victorious, with his mum waving a box of lego.

:34:39.:34:48.

The question is, where was Mike Bushell when that competition was

:34:49.:34:55.

going on? You should have been there. I love the fact that little

:34:56.:34:59.

girl just sat down halfway through. The winner came storming through.

:35:00.:35:07.

They were trying to entice them at the end with mobile phones and

:35:08.:35:13.

remote controls. But is a sign of the times.

:35:14.:35:20.

After an early set back, England's batsmen showed why

:35:21.:35:24.

they are tipped to win their first global, 50-over trophy.

:35:25.:35:27.

Joe Root made 133 not out against Bangladesh in this

:35:28.:35:29.

opening match at the Oval, as the bookmakers' favourites

:35:30.:35:32.

for the tournament, reached their target of 306 with 16

:35:33.:35:34.

Victory on Tuesday against New Zealand should secure a place

:35:35.:35:38.

We're not the finished article, we're not a perfect team,

:35:39.:35:41.

but we're definitely striving to get better all the time

:35:42.:35:44.

and you know, it's a really enjoyable team to bat

:35:45.:35:47.

So hopefully we can take a lot of confidence from today

:35:48.:35:51.

And England should find out this morning if all-rounder

:35:52.:36:10.

Chris Woakes will miss the rest of the tournament,

:36:11.:36:11.

after he left the field after two overs yesterday, with a side strain.

:36:12.:36:15.

It was a good day for Britain at the French Open yesterday,

:36:16.:36:18.

with world number one Andy Murray, and Kyle Edmund, both booking

:36:19.:36:20.

Murray had a tough battle, with the world number

:36:21.:36:23.

He had to fight back after losing the opening set,

:36:24.:36:29.

He'll face Huan Martin Del Potro, next.

:36:30.:36:32.

He's obviously been very unfortunate with injuries

:36:33.:36:34.

through his career and this year, he's had a lot of

:36:35.:36:37.

If you look at the matches he's lost, it's been mainly

:36:38.:36:41.

against the top guys very early on in the tournaments.

:36:42.:36:44.

You know, I think deserves to be ranked higher than what he is,

:36:45.:36:47.

so I'm expecting it to be very, very tough.

:36:48.:36:54.

Edmund beat Argentine, Renzo Olivo, in straight sets

:36:55.:36:56.

to progress into round three, in Paris for the first

:36:57.:36:58.

He'll be up, against South African Kevin Anderson next.

:36:59.:37:04.

While good sportsmanship was also flowing in Paris.

:37:05.:37:06.

Nicolas Almagro was almost inconsolable, after he was forced

:37:07.:37:10.

to retire with injury, and so opponent, Juan Martin Del

:37:11.:37:12.

A man who knows a thing, or two about injuries.

:37:13.:37:21.

Del Potro will play Andy Murray in the next round in a rematch

:37:22.:37:25.

It was the goalkeepers who decided the women's Champions League in

:37:26.:37:38.

Cardiff. It went to sudden death penalties. Well but Paris

:37:39.:37:43.

Saint-Germain keeper put hers wide, she was then in goal as Lyon showed

:37:44.:37:56.

how it was done. They have now done but trouble for two seasons running.

:37:57.:38:03.

-- treble. President Trump has been widely

:38:04.:38:08.

condemned by leaders around the world, after announcing

:38:09.:38:10.

the United States is to withdraw from the Paris

:38:11.:38:13.

agreement on climate-change. He made the decision despite several

:38:14.:38:14.

appeals from the United Nations, arguing he wanted a deal that

:38:15.:38:17.

didn't punish America. As president, I have one

:38:18.:38:21.

obligation and that obligation The Paris Accord would

:38:22.:38:25.

undermine our economy, hamstring our workers,

:38:26.:38:33.

weaken our sovereignty, impose unacceptable legal risk

:38:34.:38:36.

and put us at a permanent disadvantage to the other countries

:38:37.:38:42.

of the world. But we will start to negotiate

:38:43.:38:46.

and we'll see if we can Kate Andrews is a Republican

:38:47.:38:58.

supporter based in the UK. She joins us now from our

:38:59.:39:10.

Westminster studio. You could have condensed that speech

:39:11.:39:25.

simply. I was elected to represent Pittsburgh and not Paris. He said

:39:26.:39:29.

this was about the economy and the money in America? It was a good

:39:30.:39:34.

line, but you could condense it down further because he has been saying

:39:35.:39:38.

America first. That is what Donald Trump is going for, but is who he is

:39:39.:39:44.

appealing to. He did a lot of polling in the state he had his

:39:45.:39:50.

surprise winds, he couldn't have won without Wisconsin, Michigan,

:39:51.:39:54.

Pennsylvania. Where those jobs are on the line. Independent reports

:39:55.:39:57.

have suggested a few million jobs could be lost due to the Paris

:39:58.:40:00.

agreement going from the West to different parts of the world. That

:40:01.:40:04.

will be his perspective and that is the line he's trying to take. The

:40:05.:40:08.

backlash against this has been huge and in many ways, quite rightly.

:40:09.:40:14.

America choosing to pull out of an agreement 195 countries have signed

:40:15.:40:20.

into has taken an isolationist attitude, one we haven't seen for

:40:21.:40:23.

many decades. Over role in terms of the worldview, it makes America look

:40:24.:40:29.

weaker. But to not understand where he's coming from and whether voters

:40:30.:40:34.

are coming from is a big mistake because it relates to making changes

:40:35.:40:39.

in the future to better protect the environment. To be a fly on the wall

:40:40.:40:43.

in the phone call between Donald Trump and Theresa May. I understand

:40:44.:40:49.

the words I am disappointed, came into it. Donald Trump doesn't care,

:40:50.:40:53.

this is a bold decision, the always knew that most of the rest of the

:40:54.:40:58.

world, outside of a couple of countries, would say, you have made

:40:59.:41:03.

the wrong call? Yes, but coming from Britain in particular will go to his

:41:04.:41:07.

heart a bit more. The special relationship is so key, not just to

:41:08.:41:13.

Donald Trump, because he needs an ally somewhere, but historically, to

:41:14.:41:17.

have the Prime Minister say she is disappointed in the president is a

:41:18.:41:21.

tough blow. Then the other criticisms from France, Germany and

:41:22.:41:24.

Italy play in the Donald Trump's HANS. Donald Trump has said I would

:41:25.:41:32.

like to negotiate a better deal for America in his rhetoric. These

:41:33.:41:36.

countries pushing back and saying, no more negotiations does play into

:41:37.:41:41.

his hands and he said it is a bad deal for America. I am not fully

:41:42.:41:45.

convinced it is a bad deal for America, much of the agreement

:41:46.:41:51.

wasn't legally binding and the US did have more room to play than he

:41:52.:41:55.

is letting on. I am disappointed to see him make this move. It is

:41:56.:42:00.

incredibly isolationist when he should be reaching out across the

:42:01.:42:07.

world. On these Pittsburgh miners come he kept going back to those

:42:08.:42:12.

people, that he represents, it may be a little harder to explain to

:42:13.:42:17.

them this doesn't kick in for four years, which time he will be a

:42:18.:42:23.

pre-election. The reality of this decision isn't quite as easy as the

:42:24.:42:28.

rhetoric? You are right, during the next election cycle, which is so

:42:29.:42:33.

horrible to think about, this'll be a big deal. You can be certain the

:42:34.:42:37.

Democrat candidate will be using it say we need to get back into this

:42:38.:42:42.

agreement. Donald Trump will have to convince his voter base he will

:42:43.:42:45.

deliver. It will not happen right away. Donald Trump likes to get big

:42:46.:42:56.

winds quickly. It will be a sticking point him. Thank you very much. We

:42:57.:42:58.

will be talking more about that decision throughout the programme

:42:59.:42:59.

this morning. With less than a week

:43:00.:43:00.

until Britain goes to the polls, Breakfast is on the road talking

:43:01.:43:03.

to voters across the UK. The Bertie van, going over the Forth

:43:04.:43:22.

Bridge in Scotland. Good morning. You caught me practising. This is

:43:23.:43:29.

the home of golf. Scotland's ancient capital, this is Dunfermline,

:43:30.:43:33.

steeped in history. Who better to tell us more than Lars cup,

:43:34.:43:40.

historian. You dress up as Robert the Bruce. Why is he so important

:43:41.:43:45.

here? He is buried here. This is his last resting place. He wanted to be

:43:46.:43:51.

buried in the last resting place of many of Scotland's kings.

:43:52.:43:59.

Dunfermline to history is one of the most important places. It is the

:44:00.:44:06.

last resting place of Andrew Carnegie. Why is he important. He

:44:07.:44:11.

was born here and went to America when he was 12. It is a typical lab

:44:12.:44:19.

that when good and became a leading industrialist in America. In

:44:20.:44:23.

America, he is revered because he led the American dream. I do enjoy

:44:24.:44:30.

my history lessons, Kings were born here as well? Charles the first. His

:44:31.:44:38.

father James the sixth went to become James the first. The place is

:44:39.:44:44.

steeped in history. Lots of kings and queens buried here as well. And

:44:45.:44:49.

at the cathedral where the weather is being done fun, lots of history?

:44:50.:44:55.

Yes, it was founded by Saint Margaret, she brought the European

:44:56.:44:58.

Christianity to Scotland when she fled from those horrible people down

:44:59.:45:09.

south. Her son, David the first founded a number of monasteries

:45:10.:45:13.

throughout Scotland. That probably being the centrepiece. How warm is

:45:14.:45:21.

it in that costume? It is very warm. Let's see how the weather is. Dreek.

:45:22.:45:42.

Anyway, let's get on with where we are at the moment. Just been hearing

:45:43.:45:48.

about Dunfermline Abbey. Two sections fused together, the old and

:45:49.:45:52.

then the slightly more modern. Just over my shoulder this is the Sao

:45:53.:45:56.

Paul and the gatehouse of the palace, which stretches all the way

:45:57.:46:04.

back to the 11th century. But to put this into perspective, where we are

:46:05.:46:08.

in relation to the rest of Scotland, over my left shoulder you can see

:46:09.:46:13.

the road bridges and the latest one coming on. Slightly misty this

:46:14.:46:19.

morning and grey overhead. A weather front clearing away. But it is

:46:20.:46:23.

crucial because it separates the forecast from west to east. Some

:46:24.:46:27.

eastern areas are humid at the moment but there is fresh air in the

:46:28.:46:30.

West and that will be moving across all parts during the rest of the

:46:31.:46:35.

day. Looking at the wider shot as far as the weather is concerned, the

:46:36.:46:39.

weather front stretches across eastern Scotland down through

:46:40.:46:42.

western part of England and Wales, moving slowly eastwards. Right

:46:43.:46:46.

conditions already into Northern Ireland and Boston Scotland which

:46:47.:46:49.

will see one or two showers during the day. Cloudy across eastern

:46:50.:46:55.

Scotland in the rush-hour. But the drizzle becoming more confined to

:46:56.:47:02.

Shetland. Becoming wet in north-west England, Wales. Sunniest driest and

:47:03.:47:10.

warmest towards the south. We have sunshine at times across parts of

:47:11.:47:13.

the Midlands, East Anglia and the South East but it will cloud over

:47:14.:47:18.

and it is here we could see some heavy and maybe thundery showers.

:47:19.:47:21.

Potentially tarantula is well across part of East Anglia and the South

:47:22.:47:27.

East. To the west, one or two showers and where as we can hit 28

:47:28.:47:34.

degrees in East Anglia today, temperatures back down to where they

:47:35.:47:39.

should be, 17 or 18 degrees. The fresh air will be slowly trying to

:47:40.:47:42.

push into the south-eastern night but showers around eastern England

:47:43.:47:47.

in particular. Maybe the odd heavy and thundery one, East Anglia and

:47:48.:47:52.

the likes of Kent. But isolated showers elsewhere and temperatures

:47:53.:47:55.

down into single figures away from towns and cities. In the South East

:47:56.:48:01.

Corner, we see the driest and brightest whether to start the

:48:02.:48:07.

weekend. One or two isolated showers and the worse. In Northern Ireland,

:48:08.:48:11.

it showers more frequent, some could be heavy with thunder and hail mixed

:48:12.:48:16.

in. Sunny spells in between. Gone are the mid to high 20s, all others

:48:17.:48:21.

generally around the mid to high teens, may be low 20s at the best.

:48:22.:48:26.

We continue with those temperatures into Sunday. Sunday, greater chance

:48:27.:48:29.

of showers across England and Wales, particularly the further south you

:48:30.:48:33.

are. There will be some areas of showers altogether. Looks like North

:48:34.:48:38.

Wales, North Midlands, it should be a largely dry day. We continue with

:48:39.:48:42.

the fresher team into next week with a mixture of sunshine and showers.

:48:43.:48:46.

That is how you weather is looking into the Firth of Forth.

:48:47.:48:57.

I think you were supposed to be doing the cooking. I think that is

:48:58.:49:06.

your turn. I wanted a slightly healthier

:49:07.:49:12.

Breakfast. You are not doing this very well, a lot of smoke.

:49:13.:49:18.

I am expecting a sandwich after all of this.

:49:19.:49:19.

Expect away! We are talking about what it means

:49:20.:49:27.

that the economy here. In six days, people go to the polls. They will be

:49:28.:49:32.

voting in the election. How does it figure when it comes to the economy,

:49:33.:49:36.

how does Scotland fit in with the rest of the UK and what does it mean

:49:37.:49:41.

for voters here? Two people can explain, Chris and Stephanie, good

:49:42.:49:46.

morning. Chris, you run an international business, talk me

:49:47.:49:49.

through some of the biggest issues for voters? I think currency and

:49:50.:49:56.

Brexit has a major impact. We pay a lot of our bills in Euros and we

:49:57.:50:02.

have seen a 20% increase on those. We have two members of staff who are

:50:03.:50:06.

European citizens. They are highly skilled people so it has caused some

:50:07.:50:11.

concerns. Stephanie, the challenge at the moment is we are feeling the

:50:12.:50:15.

squeeze on incomes. Less money in our pockets because prices are

:50:16.:50:18.

rising. No exception, you are feeling it? I work 20 hours a week.

:50:19.:50:25.

Even with things like child care, half of my wage goes to childcare.

:50:26.:50:30.

At the end of the month, the rises of prizes is making a struggle, even

:50:31.:50:36.

to buy a weekly shop. So it definitely... Things like wages,

:50:37.:50:40.

living wage and childcare is a big thing and people all over the

:50:41.:50:45.

country like myself. I know you want to go back to university, but there

:50:46.:50:49.

are some things that have devolved to Scotland, education is one of

:50:50.:50:56.

them. Free tuition fees... How will that figure in your decisions? Free

:50:57.:51:03.

tuition fees will be good for me, but what will I do with my son when

:51:04.:51:08.

I am at university? Free childcare isn't until three years old, my son

:51:09.:51:13.

is 18 months. How does it work for people like myself? It is quite

:51:14.:51:20.

difficult, free tuition fees, free childcare, big things when it comes

:51:21.:51:24.

to my decision and who I will vote for. Brexit is a big issue in this

:51:25.:51:29.

election, how does it play out in Scotland? We saw the results of the

:51:30.:51:35.

referendum and Scotland voted Remain. Do you fill your part of

:51:36.:51:38.

Europe as an international business? I travel to London every week and

:51:39.:51:45.

inward investment is important and double taxation questions come into

:51:46.:51:54.

play. If it is an independence reference, that comes into the

:51:55.:52:00.

equation. For now, thank you. We will talk more later. What does it

:52:01.:52:05.

mean as far as the wider economy is concerned and how can it affect

:52:06.:52:12.

voters here. Professor, from the University of Stirling, welcome. We

:52:13.:52:16.

have talked about issues and how it might affect how they vote in six

:52:17.:52:21.

days, I want to talk about oil because it is an important part of

:52:22.:52:25.

the Scottish economy. We have seen oil prices since the independence

:52:26.:52:28.

referendum nearly halving and that has affected revenues for the

:52:29.:52:34.

Scottish economy? It does, it has a substantial effect on the revenues

:52:35.:52:38.

on an independent Scotland so the taxation and spending would be more

:52:39.:52:42.

difficult. At the moment, it doesn't look like oil price will go up any

:52:43.:52:47.

time soon, for a variety of reasons. It does make the case for

:52:48.:52:52.

independence more difficult. When we look at where Scotland figures in

:52:53.:52:56.

the whole UK picture, economic growth is a big problem, because it

:52:57.:53:03.

affects how much people have in their pockets. Growth is shrinking,

:53:04.:53:07.

if we get another quarter of economic growth shrinking, we fall

:53:08.:53:11.

into a recession? The Scottish economy has grown markedly less

:53:12.:53:19.

slowly down the UK. Part of the money the Scottish Government gets

:53:20.:53:22.

now comes from its own income tax revenues, so that is a worry.

:53:23.:53:28.

Clearly, for the last two, three quarters has been falling behind the

:53:29.:53:35.

UK. Let's talk about income. We all feeling the squeeze, prices are

:53:36.:53:39.

rising, wages are not keeping up and it is an issue as voters go the

:53:40.:53:45.

polls. Yes, in many ways, the labour market in Scotland is similar to

:53:46.:53:50.

that in the UK, employment is at a high level, unemployment is very

:53:51.:53:54.

low, but incomes aren't much bigger than they were in real terms seven

:53:55.:53:59.

or eight years ago. So that is a big worry, meeting the weekly bills is

:54:00.:54:04.

becoming more and more difficult. A picture that is brighter is

:54:05.:54:09.

unemployment. Lower than the national average, lower than the UK

:54:10.:54:13.

average. So a healthier picture as far as the job market is concerned?

:54:14.:54:18.

It is at the margin, it is a bit better. The Scottish economy has

:54:19.:54:23.

been better at creating jobs but not creating the productivity that

:54:24.:54:26.

generates the higher incomes in terms of the tax revenues and so on.

:54:27.:54:31.

But is why a lot of people are feeling stretched, even though they

:54:32.:54:35.

are in jobs. For now, David, thank you very much. How are you getting

:54:36.:54:46.

on? I see a lot of smoke. How do you like your sausage in the

:54:47.:55:01.

morning? Chris B. Yay! Maps, who is in the park behind, we will send him

:55:02.:55:05.

a goodie bag. -- Mafi. He did say you wanted

:55:06.:55:10.

Breakfast, now you will never ask for it again.

:55:11.:55:15.

I think you need to get out of the band. You have been talking to

:55:16.:55:20.

people about the economic impact and we will be talking about immigration

:55:21.:55:24.

and the issues here and cohesiveness. And of course the

:55:25.:55:28.

economy and independence. Lots of views coming here from Scotland.

leaders said there'd be no renegotiation.

the history of this place and getting views on what election

:02:11.:02:15.

issues matter most to you. Now for the news from Charlie.

:02:16.:02:20.

Theresa May has expressed her disappointment over

:02:21.:02:23.

President Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from

:02:24.:02:25.

In a phone call with Mr Trump, the Prime Minister stressed that

:02:26.:02:28.

Britain remains committed to the agreement.

:02:29.:02:30.

Our North America Correspondent, David Willis, has more.

:02:31.:02:34.

He had promised this to the people who voted him into office.

:02:35.:02:37.

Nonetheless, it was a momentous announcement and one

:02:38.:02:39.

which drew swift condemnation from around the world.

:02:40.:02:44.

As president, I have one obligation, and that obligation

:02:45.:02:46.

President Trump believes in a nutshell that the Paris Accord

:02:47.:02:55.

impedes his ability to restore jobs to parts of the American heartland,

:02:56.:02:58.

blighted by the move away from fossil fuels,

:02:59.:03:04.

Time, in his view, to put America first.

:03:05.:03:08.

A philosophy summed up in one short phrase.

:03:09.:03:10.

I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris.

:03:11.:03:21.

Pittsburgh's mayor, Bill Peduto, swiftly responded, saying his city

:03:22.:03:23.

considered the heart of the American steel industry, actually

:03:24.:03:25.

Donald Trump had previously said global warning was a hoax

:03:26.:03:32.

He is now saying he'd be willing to renegotiate the Paris Accord,

:03:33.:03:39.

albeit on terms more favourable to the US, European leaders want

:03:40.:03:41.

I reaffirm that the Paris agreement remains irreversible and will be

:03:42.:03:55.

Not just by France, but by all the other nations.

:03:56.:04:08.

Those gathered outside the White House to protest

:04:09.:04:10.

President's decision believed the departure of the second largest

:04:11.:04:12.

polluter on the planet will have a dramatic impact

:04:13.:04:16.

Donald Trump believes his decision represents an assertion of American

:04:17.:04:20.

sovereignty whilst his critics believe it is precisely

:04:21.:04:22.

What we know now is there was a phone call late last night. What has

:04:23.:04:53.

been said about the call? Downing Street said Theresa May told Donald

:04:54.:04:57.

Trump she was disappointed with the decision. She's said she believed

:04:58.:05:02.

that Paris was the right framework and the UK would continue to sign up

:05:03.:05:07.

to it. There has been joint condemnation from France, Germany

:05:08.:05:11.

and Italy. All signed a letter condemning Donald Trump for the

:05:12.:05:16.

decision. There has been criticism of Theresa May not signing up to it.

:05:17.:05:22.

All being forceful of their criticism and not trying to

:05:23.:05:26.

influence him to persuade him to try to think again. Labour said it was a

:05:27.:05:31.

dereliction of her duty and called Donald Trump's actions and act of

:05:32.:05:39.

global generational vandalism. Saying this is time that the special

:05:40.:05:42.

relationship should matter. We should be able to tell President

:05:43.:05:47.

Trump to use our influence to try to persuade him to change our mind. The

:05:48.:05:53.

Conservatives are very clear they are taking a different approach.

:05:54.:06:06.

China was mentioned many times. It has recently been reaffirming its

:06:07.:06:14.

commitment through the accord. Beijing has explicitly criticise

:06:15.:06:20.

Donald Trump for pulling the United States at the Paris agreement that

:06:21.:06:23.

it is saying when you want out but we will stand by Europe and other

:06:24.:06:27.

nations push ahead on climate measures. It is interesting, China's

:06:28.:06:33.

number to leader will meet senior figures from the EU and sign a

:06:34.:06:37.

statement reaffirming their commitment to the Paris measures.

:06:38.:06:42.

Have a look at the local newspapers. Here is Angela Merkel. Here is an

:06:43.:06:50.

English language daily with the same sort of images. What a contrast to

:06:51.:06:57.

Donald Trump at the Nato summit recently! They'll be geopolitical

:06:58.:07:01.

ramifications well beyond climate change in terms of the US pulling

:07:02.:07:06.

out of the Paris deal. They could see China getting a leg up on the

:07:07.:07:10.

world stage in terms of becoming something of a leader in terms of

:07:11.:07:12.

tackling climate change. The Conservatives have

:07:13.:07:17.

denied their immigration policy is in confusion,

:07:18.:07:18.

after Theresa May suggested she wanted net migration to be

:07:19.:07:20.

reduced to under a hundred The Brexit Secretary, David Davis,

:07:21.:07:23.

said it was no more than an aim. Our Political Correspondent,

:07:24.:07:29.

Gary O'Donoghue reports. Cutting the overall immigration

:07:30.:07:34.

numbers to the tens of thousands has been Conservative policy

:07:35.:07:37.

for seven years. But it's proved incredibly

:07:38.:07:39.

hard to achieve. Last year, the population increase

:07:40.:07:41.

due to immigration went up by almost With around 175,000 of those people

:07:42.:07:44.

coming from outside the EU, the group over which Britain already

:07:45.:07:53.

has full control. The tens of thousands target is

:07:54.:07:57.

again in the Conservative manifesto. Yesterday, a Home Office minister

:07:58.:08:00.

appeared to put one on it. You are saying tens of thousands

:08:01.:08:08.

in five years' time? Over

:08:09.:08:11.

the course of the Parliament, yes. EU and non-EU, down

:08:12.:08:13.

to tens of thousands? We want to see migration levels

:08:14.:08:18.

coming down to sustainable levels, of thousands, over the course

:08:19.:08:20.

of the next Parliament. Those comments were put to Theresa

:08:21.:08:24.

May while she was out campaigning. She was asked the question

:08:25.:08:28.

whether the target would be down to tens of thousands in five years,

:08:29.:08:30.

to which she said that's But there was a different

because of other urgent The Royal College of Surgeons argue

this will mean increasing numbers The college, using NHS England data,

says around 126,000 people had waited more than 26 weeks

for non-urgent treatment in March, up 180% on March 2013,

a time when targets were being hit. The biggest increases

:11:11.:11:15.

were for dermatology, ear, nose and throat

:11:16.:11:17.

and urology patients. We know we need to have more

funding and restore the 18 week treatment target,

:12:48.:12:57.

Breakfast has been back on the road. Sampling in opinion and talking to

:12:58.:13:10.

people about what are the big issues.

:13:11.:13:12.

You know when we go through the papers and sometimes we get a little

:13:13.:13:21.

bit scrunched up because it is all awkward when we are holding them?

:13:22.:13:29.

Remember that? This is the answer. I have the Dunfermline and district

:13:30.:13:33.

pipe band with me. You had earlier and we'll hear from them again for

:13:34.:13:36.

the let's take a look at the papers. The Guardian is taking a look at the

:13:37.:13:41.

lead story that United States and Donald Trump has rejected the

:13:42.:13:45.

climate change called. The president is claiming American jobs are being

:13:46.:13:49.

put at risk by the Paris deal to curb emissions and the news that

:13:50.:13:54.

Nigel Farage is a person of interest as the FBI is an amateur --

:13:55.:14:02.

examining Russian links to Donald Trump. Labour wanting to use the SNP

:14:03.:14:12.

to form a minority government in the event of a hung parliament. A

:14:13.:14:16.

picture that of Donald Trump on the front page. The Scotsman is taking a

:14:17.:14:20.

look for is that there is a picture of Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May,

:14:21.:14:25.

Saint Theresa May is coming for a fresh message as the polls on the

:14:26.:14:31.

harrowing. -- saying Theresa May. Also looking at the popularity of

:14:32.:14:36.

Nicola Sturgeon at the moment. Saying she is in denial about the

:14:37.:14:43.

decision for wanting a second independence referendum causing the

:14:44.:14:51.

decline in her popularity. Good morning. On the front page of the

:14:52.:14:56.

Daily Mirror, remember those tickets went on sale for the tribute concert

:14:57.:15:02.

after the author events in Manchester. Saying people have been

:15:03.:15:12.

lying about being at the original Ariana Grande concert and claiming

:15:13.:15:15.

free tickets. Thank you for helping out with the papers. With me are

:15:16.:15:24.

John and Pat. Musician and campaigner for Scottish

:15:25.:15:31.

independence. You are forgiven for a slight stumble. What do you think is

:15:32.:15:38.

the biggest issue question we're talking about independence was

:15:39.:15:43.

debilitating a look at the fall in popularity of Nicola Sturgeon. Also

:15:44.:15:47.

the timing of another referendum being behind the fall in her

:15:48.:15:51.

popularity. How much is independence is playing into people's minds? It

:15:52.:15:57.

is a perverse election when Nicola Sturgeon has said she does not want

:15:58.:16:01.

to talk about independence. It is always the other party leaders who

:16:02.:16:05.

talk about it. That has had an interesting effect. The focus of the

:16:06.:16:12.

election, especially with regard to Question Time and debates, they

:16:13.:16:16.

focus on health and education. Nicola Sturgeon very effective as a

:16:17.:16:20.

politician has been in power for ten years. That legacy, the weight of

:16:21.:16:27.

that government and the weather stays is beginning to have a drag on

:16:28.:16:36.

her ratings. Down 18 points. The real paradox for the SNP is to show

:16:37.:16:40.

how well they govern. There is a limit on the amount of things they

:16:41.:16:45.

can do any amount of resources they have control over. What is

:16:46.:16:50.

interesting is whether there Ann anti-politics vote going around up

:16:51.:16:54.

and down the country with people fed up with the political classes. The

:16:55.:16:59.

way that is panning out in Scotland, no more firsts and no more

:17:00.:17:08.

referenda. Which party will benefit? It is an interesting spread. The

:17:09.:17:13.

Tories will benefit, I think. Ruth Davidson has completely targeted her

:17:14.:17:16.

campaign to deal with the anti-political settlement. We are

:17:17.:17:21.

all exhausted with politics at the moment. How that is being expressed

:17:22.:17:26.

is not another referendum where we have to have arguments. As someone

:17:27.:17:32.

who supports independence, I would quite like those energies to be

:17:33.:17:38.

stoked up again. It might require a period of calm stop there are

:17:39.:17:42.

general issues here about disillusionment with politics and

:17:43.:17:47.

exhaustion with politics. It is true that the Tories have very much

:17:48.:17:51.

presented themselves like that. Labour has also got into that game.

:17:52.:17:58.

Kezia Dugdale is riding forward. There is a problem. She is running

:17:59.:18:11.

away from to recent me's manifesto. She repudiates fox hunting. She

:18:12.:18:16.

tries to carve off the winter fuel allowance to be different for

:18:17.:18:21.

Scotland are not to have the cut. It seems to me, amongst Labour and

:18:22.:18:26.

Conservatives, about how the leader in Westminster in London is

:18:27.:18:30.

reflected in the influence they are having in Scotland as well. Whether

:18:31.:18:33.

or not there should be some detachment from the messages coming

:18:34.:18:38.

from the party from Westminster. Is that fair? It is funny. On the side

:18:39.:18:44.

of independence, the centre-left, when you look at some might Corbyn

:18:45.:18:47.

and think, that guy probably expresses about 80%. The 20% he does

:18:48.:18:57.

not express is to do with Trident. They're not very enthusiastic about

:18:58.:19:00.

constitutional reform. There are a lot of people on the yes side in

:19:01.:19:03.

Scotland wondering what will happen with the election. If it is a hung

:19:04.:19:09.

parliament and there is a progressive majority emerging, it

:19:10.:19:12.

could be an interesting number of years. If Corbyn wants to get rid of

:19:13.:19:20.

Trident and reform over the House of Lords, his power over SNP is where

:19:21.:19:29.

it has side. With regard to the Progressive alliance, it depends on

:19:30.:19:34.

the idea of a confident of vote with the SNP. It is spending all of its

:19:35.:19:40.

time to campaign to leave that arrangement. That does not give you

:19:41.:19:45.

a stable government. It could be an unstable proposition. When you look

:19:46.:19:49.

what happened with Callaghan, it would be even more when the SNP

:19:50.:19:56.

walked out. Go forward to the 20 20s. It is not in the interests of

:19:57.:20:01.

Scotland, it is not in a good state and we want to be in a good state.

:20:02.:20:08.

It stays to go to vote and the passion is rising. Thank you so much

:20:09.:20:15.

real time. Just behind me, the two-minute walk away is Dunfermline

:20:16.:20:20.

Abbey. Matters inside the Abbey, ready to give us the weather for

:20:21.:20:25.

today. Good morning. -- Matt is inside.

:20:26.:20:29.

This stunning Romanesque architecture inside. The Abbey was

:20:30.:20:37.

established by Queen Margaret. Behind the doors at the back is

:20:38.:20:41.

somewhere near where Robert the Bruce was buried. Here Edward I of

:20:42.:20:46.

England held court in the 14th century. When he left a lot was

:20:47.:20:54.

burned to the ground. I am sheltered away from the weather. Not too bad

:20:55.:20:58.

across Dunfermline this morning. Rain overnight clearing its way

:20:59.:21:03.

towards the east. The brain is the dividing line between humid air

:21:04.:21:07.

across eastern parts of the UK this morning and fresh air moving in from

:21:08.:21:13.

the West. Taking a look at the UK scene for the breakfast period that

:21:14.:21:16.

you can see the line of rain extending through the East of

:21:17.:21:20.

Scotland through parts of England and Wales. Into the fresh air

:21:21.:21:26.

already in Northern Ireland and western Scotland, fairly cloudy and

:21:27.:21:33.

the odd spot of rain. Wet across northern England, parts of Wales and

:21:34.:21:37.

the south-west. The rain steadily pushing eastwards. In parts of

:21:38.:21:41.

southern and eastern England, this is where not only there is a humid

:21:42.:21:46.

start but also some of the brightest conditions to begin the day.

:21:47.:21:51.

Temperatures were ready approaching 19, 20. The rain band fragments into

:21:52.:21:57.

clusters of showers. There is very humid air in East Anglia and the

:21:58.:22:01.

South East and there could be intense thunderstorms. The small

:22:02.:22:05.

risk of flash flooding and light showers. Note the temperatures this

:22:06.:22:13.

afternoon. A big contrast. 26-28 potentially across south-east

:22:14.:22:20.

England and East Anglia. Through tonight, the humid air made just

:22:21.:22:23.

about hold on across East Anglia and the South East. Still some showers

:22:24.:22:29.

to come. Further west, some isolated showers. Lots of dry and brighter

:22:30.:22:32.

weather but it will fill cooler going into the start of the weekend.

:22:33.:22:37.

Temperatures in rural figures down to single figures. Overnight, the

:22:38.:22:44.

cloud should then an break. Across good parts of England and Wales

:22:45.:22:48.

Saturday's looking dry with sunshine. One or to isolated

:22:49.:22:53.

showers. It will feel fresher than recent days. Sunshine in Scotland

:22:54.:22:57.

and Northern Ireland will be interrupted by some showers. Some of

:22:58.:23:02.

those could be heavy and thundery. Temperatures still in the late to

:23:03.:23:09.

high teens. The mid to high teens. Those temperatures go into Sunday.

:23:10.:23:13.

The greatest risk of showers in Scotland and Northern Ireland. A few

:23:14.:23:17.

more showers in England and Wales compared with Saturday. Stick with

:23:18.:23:22.

the sunshine and temperatures after what has been into the 20s over the

:23:23.:23:27.

past few days, hovering around the mid to high teens for many. That is

:23:28.:23:31.

how it is looking in the surroundings of Dunfermline Abbey.

:23:32.:23:38.

We are here in Dunfermline, the ancient capital of Scotland. You can

:23:39.:23:45.

see breakfast is beautifully delayed out on the table. I am with our

:23:46.:23:49.

voters. A few minutes ago we were talking about the issue of

:23:50.:23:53.

independence. It has been three years since we had the independence

:23:54.:23:57.

referendum. There is still talk about whether another referendum

:23:58.:24:03.

should be held. Rachel has her exam later this afternoon to Saubers is

:24:04.:24:09.

commitment. This is an interest in politics. You are too young to vote

:24:10.:24:13.

last time around. You are interested in independence. I definitely think

:24:14.:24:19.

it is the only way that Scotland can control their own country. Last

:24:20.:24:25.

time, there were 56 MPs and we still can't get listened to. They will

:24:26.:24:30.

either be outvoted by the Labour government, the Conservative

:24:31.:24:32.

government. You can't win either way. Have you decided how you're

:24:33.:24:39.

going to vote? Are you happy to say? I will be voting SNP. We spoke to

:24:40.:24:47.

Alan earlier. You previously voted SNP, strongly in favour of Scotland

:24:48.:24:51.

staying part of the UK. You have changed your mind. I have changed my

:24:52.:24:56.

mind. I voted for them because I thought they would be a competent

:24:57.:25:01.

government. Now we have seen how incompetent they are. The other

:25:02.:25:06.

reason for voting for independence, not me but others, is because they

:25:07.:25:11.

want to be free. The opinion polls continue say the majority don't want

:25:12.:25:16.

independence. I would like that to be respected. Do you know how you

:25:17.:25:23.

are voting? Absolutely. I'm going to vote Conservative. Stefanie... You

:25:24.:25:28.

are a mum. You have a baby boy. You intend to go back to university next

:25:29.:25:33.

year. Give me some background. You want your little boy to grow up in

:25:34.:25:38.

an Independent Scotland. I feel it is the only way we can control our

:25:39.:25:44.

own country and take back... Have our own legislation. I know a lot of

:25:45.:25:53.

issues are devolved. In Brexit, Scotland voted overwhelmingly to

:25:54.:25:58.

stay in the new. How is that fair that we are being taken out of the

:25:59.:26:03.

EU? I think Scotland would benefit from having their own legislation,

:26:04.:26:09.

taking over their own control and access to the single market as well.

better off in the UK. Scotland would be better off in the UK. It does

:26:24.:26:28.

serve to have its independence. It needs to put a plan together we can

:26:29.:26:32.

see and view and agree with. We do not want to be a country on its own

:26:33.:26:36.

which is highly taxed against everyone else in Europe. I am on the

Theresa May has informed Donald Trump of her disappointment

:37:09.:37:10.

after the President announced he would be withdrawing

:37:11.:37:12.

the United States from the Paris climate-change accord.

:37:13.:37:15.

Under the agreement, countries pledged to cut

:37:16.:37:16.

The aim - to limit the rise in average global temperature to two

:37:17.:37:20.

With the promise of $100 billion a year to help poorer

:37:21.:37:26.

America will join Nicaragua and Syria as being the only

:37:27.:37:34.

countries not to sign up to the Paris deal.

:37:35.:37:37.

Defiant reaction came in thick and fast from leaders across Europe

:37:38.:37:40.

and around the world, following President

:37:41.:37:42.

This is what the French President, Emmanuel Macron, had to say.

:37:43.:37:49.

I can assure you, France will not give up the fight.

:37:50.:37:51.

I reaffirm clearly, that the Paris agreement remains irreversible

:37:52.:37:54.

Not just by France, but by all the other nations.

:37:55.:37:57.

Because where ever we live, where ever we are, we all share

:37:58.:38:00.

Richard Black is the Director of the Energy and Climate Change

:38:01.:38:16.

I imagine, you were watching last night, your initial reaction?

:38:17.:38:31.

Combined a lot of emotion with quite a few numbers. It was going back to

:38:32.:38:40.

an America built on coal and steel with real men in hard hats doing

:38:41.:38:45.

real jobs. They spoke of massive economic losses and massive job

:38:46.:38:48.

losses in the future. Basically he was saying we need to pull out of

:38:49.:38:52.

this agreement in order to rebuild those industries such as coal and

:38:53.:38:59.

steel on which America became great. The world has moved on. The number

:39:00.:39:04.

of people employed in coal mines in America has halved in 20 years. That

:39:05.:39:08.

wasn't because of the Paris climate agreement, it is because better

:39:09.:39:13.

things came along like natural gas, renewable energy and ways of

:39:14.:39:16.

stopping wasting so much energy, which are better for society. Help

:39:17.:39:21.

me with a couple of thoughts. I heard from quite a few experts in

:39:22.:39:26.

this field, in some ways, his decision won't make much difference,

:39:27.:39:31.

meant has changed and so many countries are signed up,

:39:32.:39:34.

symbolically hugely important, but in practice, maybe not so much. I

:39:35.:39:41.

think it is right. In a large part, agreements like the Paris agreement

:39:42.:39:44.

reflect what a lot of countries are doing anyway and what they see as

:39:45.:39:48.

their national interests. Even before the Paris agreement was

:39:49.:39:54.

signed, China revealed massive plans for renewable energy, India are

:39:55.:39:58.

following suit. They have intensified their pledges and

:39:59.:40:02.

commitments, particularly with regard to closing coal fired power

:40:03.:40:06.

stations. There is no reason for those countries to change course.

:40:07.:40:09.

The balance of world power is shifting towards Asia. Asia has half

:40:10.:40:17.

of the world's population already. That is driving things forward. In

:40:18.:40:20.

Europe we have seen incredible successes through cutting climate

:40:21.:40:25.

change. In the UK, per capita of wealth is growing by 45% in the 25

:40:26.:40:31.

years since the Rio Earth Summit started this. The real-world

:40:32.:40:36.

evidence is controlling carbon emissions and getting richer, do go

:40:37.:40:42.

hand in hand. Some states in America, California leading

:40:43.:40:45.

discharge, they say we will do what we want to do anyway. In a way, what

:40:46.:40:51.

President Trump has decided for the nation will not change the way we

:40:52.:40:56.

operate. California's output is like the fifth largest in the world. Can

:40:57.:41:01.

they carry on and the effect be almost as if America hasn't pulled

:41:02.:41:05.

out? There was a new alliance launched straightaway between the

:41:06.:41:10.

governors of California, Washington and New York and they count for 20%

:41:11.:41:15.

of US carbon emissions. California has ambitious targets, half of

:41:16.:41:21.

renewable sources by 2030, doubling the rate at which stop wasting

:41:22.:41:29.

energy. They want to change motoring to electric vehicles. They can do

:41:30.:41:33.

it, the only thing that might stop them is if the White House decides

:41:34.:41:37.

to impose new regulations that have an impact nation wide. If they tried

:41:38.:41:43.

to block The States. But we know how lawyers in court would react to

:41:44.:41:48.

that. We will see, Richard. Thank you for your time.

:41:49.:41:53.

By this time next week, we're likely to know the result

:41:54.:41:56.

So, with just days left until the polls open,

:41:57.:42:01.

Breakfast has been hitting the road and talking to voters about

:42:02.:42:04.

Naga is in Dunfermline for us this morning,

:42:05.:42:09.

discussing everything from immigration to independence.

:42:10.:42:15.

Good morning to you, Naga. Good morning, it is Breakfast time and we

:42:16.:42:23.

are feeding our voters this morning. Is it good? Excellent. One of the

:42:24.:42:30.

issues we are talking about and an issue that is quite important is

:42:31.:42:35.

migration. Thinking attitudes perhaps could be different here,

:42:36.:42:39.

compared to the rest of the UK. Graham Satchel will explain why. He

:42:40.:42:44.

went west of here, about 30 miles away to take a look to see how

:42:45.:42:47.

voters are thinking about migration. The people who make Glasgow today

:42:48.:42:56.

come from all over the world. I like Glasgow, I've been living

:42:57.:42:59.

here for over four years. Glasgow styles itself

you know, the standards have That kind of concern

:43:31.:43:32.

about immigration is probably, in the end, the main reason that

:43:33.:43:40.

England and Wales voted for Brexit. Immigration here is a much more

:43:41.:43:43.

subtle, complicated nuance issue After World War II,

all different parties. Wonderful morning, we are getting views from

:46:08.:46:11.

voters and we will be speaking to politicians later on. Now the

:46:12.:46:15.

weather. We are in the grounds of Dunfermline

:46:16.:46:30.

Abbey, now we have Robert the Bruce himself. Good morning. Thanks for

:46:31.:46:42.

joining us. Amazing getup. I grew up in Scotland and I am only learning

:46:43.:46:46.

out the significance Dunfermline has in Scottish history? It has been

:46:47.:46:53.

overshadowed by Edinburgh, but Dunfermline is where the royal seats

:46:54.:46:58.

were. Robert the Bruce is buried here, Malcolm Campbell is buried

:46:59.:47:02.

here, most of his sons are buried here. This is where Robert the Bruce

:47:03.:47:09.

is known, an icon for Dunfermline. He was a king that really sort of

:47:10.:47:15.

United Scotland. He united the Highlands, he united the lowlands.

:47:16.:47:21.

Dunfermline is an important part of that. Why Dunfermline? Why is it so

:47:22.:47:28.

important? There has been a site here since we think 500 A.D.. But

:47:29.:47:34.

this is where the church became strong. The church as we know it,

:47:35.:47:39.

the medieval church, this is where it all began when Margaret came up.

:47:40.:47:46.

So Robert felt this was important, this was sanctified ground, the seat

:47:47.:47:52.

of the Scottish church. Fantastic. This is the costume Robert the Bruce

:47:53.:47:57.

for when he went into battle? Yes. This chain mail is very heavy? It is

:47:58.:48:08.

about two and a half stone. This is very heavy, I cannot believe they

:48:09.:48:12.

went into battle with this. I will give that back to you.

:48:13.:48:17.

Thanks for joining us. Fine morning in Dunfermline, grey skies but it

:48:18.:48:22.

will be a dry day, I think here and across the UK, bit of a split.

:48:23.:48:27.

Eastern areas humid worm or western areas are fresher. There is a

:48:28.:48:32.

dividing weather front bringing rain, as they always do. Sitting

:48:33.:48:37.

across parts of eastern Scotland, into western England and Wales.

:48:38.:48:43.

Nudging eastwards. Brighter weather already but for eastern Scotland,

:48:44.:48:49.

patchy rain across western England and Wales. The weather front will

:48:50.:48:52.

push its way eastwards. Far south-east of the UK is where we

:48:53.:48:55.

have the humid air. Temperatures climbing rapidly. Sunny spells but

:48:56.:49:01.

it will cloud over into the afternoon. The weather front

:49:02.:49:04.

fragments, showers becoming heavy and fragmented. Where you start with

:49:05.:49:11.

the club further west, sunshine comes out and only one or two

:49:12.:49:16.

showers. Tebbit is back to where they should be for the time of the

:49:17.:49:20.

year. But in East angrier and the South East Corner we could get 26 to

:49:21.:49:26.

28 Celsius. That humidity sparking off storms. Into the night, the

:49:27.:49:30.

storms will continue to rumble around for a short while across the

:49:31.:49:34.

East Anglia and the south-east. There will be further showers

:49:35.:49:39.

overnight. Further west, isolated showers and clear whether around. It

:49:40.:49:43.

will be cooler than last night. Temperatures away from towns and

:49:44.:49:47.

cities will be dropping into single figures but in the South east corner

:49:48.:49:50.

of the country, this is where we have the showers to begin with and

:49:51.:49:54.

things are drier later on and temperatures will hold up. 16 cells

:49:55.:50:00.

is potentially in and around the London area. We go into the weekend

:50:01.:50:04.

with some humid air in a South East Corner but that will be replaced by

:50:05.:50:09.

the fresh conditions experienced elsewhere. Tomorrow, it looks like

:50:10.:50:13.

England and Wales will be dry, good, long spells of sunshine and a few

:50:14.:50:17.

isolated showers in the West but the Scotland and Northern Ireland,

:50:18.:50:20.

showers every now and again. Some on the heavy side. Cannot rule out the

:50:21.:50:26.

odd rumble of thunder. But across the UK, high teens, maybe low 20s in

:50:27.:50:33.

the South East Corner. Fresh conditions continue. One or two more

:50:34.:50:38.

showers around on Sunday compared to Saturday. That is how it is looking

:50:39.:50:46.

from the gorgeous ground here from Dunfermline and I hand you back to

:50:47.:50:47.

the centre of town with Naga. They say a good worker never blames

:50:48.:51:05.

his tools, but I am this morning. I set you the task of cooking

:51:06.:51:10.

:51:11.:51:16.

but you have to cook 15 Breakfast for the pipes bang.

:51:17.:51:24.

-- band. Given you burns my Breakfast this morning, did you

:51:25.:51:26.

write the sign this morning? Maybe. While Naga is cooking 15

:51:27.:51:34.

Breakfast, if she does that, I will be amazed.

:51:35.:51:37.

In Scotland, one of the big issues will be the money in our pockets. We

:51:38.:51:43.

have specific issues when it comes to Scotland. Not least, the fall in

:51:44.:51:49.

the price of oil which means revenues in Scotland, but were

:51:50.:51:52.

substantial have fallen significantly. The price of oil has

:51:53.:51:57.

halved since the referendum. Let's find what it could mean for some

:51:58.:52:02.

voters. Louise and Sinead are here. You guys have a shop in town. It is

:52:03.:52:08.

fair to say it is the centre of the community, you get a lot of people

:52:09.:52:12.

talking about all sorts of things. Albee, what are the issues for you?

:52:13.:52:20.

What do you have to contend with? Our business is focused on economics

:52:21.:52:26.

and social issues. Social issues shapes the economics. It is a social

:52:27.:52:29.

enterprise that has to provide us with an income. We are not really

:52:30.:52:34.

worried about the size of the income, as long as it is enough. The

:52:35.:52:39.

social part of it is much more important. It is about getting books

:52:40.:52:44.

into the hands of children, improve literacy and to provide a forum for

:52:45.:52:52.

open debate as well. If it is a debate in the shop, what are people

:52:53.:53:00.

talking about? Most people are struggling everyday to get by. NHS,

:53:01.:53:06.

education and people want to know they have got supports. At the

:53:07.:53:11.

moment, we feel that isn't there. It is important people go out and vote

:53:12.:53:15.

for what they really, really feel are the issues important to them. We

:53:16.:53:21.

always hear there is apathy and voting will not change anything. Do

:53:22.:53:26.

you think it will make a difference, the people you speak to, do they

:53:27.:53:31.

feel it will make a difference? Yes, everyone we speak to, they are

:53:32.:53:36.

positive about going out and voting. Sinead, we talk about younger voters

:53:37.:53:41.

getting out and voting and changing things, specific things like

:53:42.:53:53.

education fees? It is important for young people to vote and our voices

:53:54.:53:56.

will be heard. So things like tuition fees are things we don't

:53:57.:54:00.

need to worry about in Scotland. Do you feel there are more of your

:54:01.:54:05.

friends, of your colleagues that will go out and vote because they

:54:06.:54:10.

feel this is the time to do it? It is so important that we go out and

:54:11.:54:14.

make our voices heard. Everyone I know definitely wants to vote. Great

:54:15.:54:16.

tit talk to you all. That is some of the issues affecting

:54:17.:54:25.

people here in Scotland but what about the wider economic problem and

:54:26.:54:29.

how does it affect people how they vote. With me to talk about that,

:54:30.:54:35.

Professor David Bell from the University of Stirling. Let's talk

:54:36.:54:38.

about the wider economic picture. A lot of similarities with the rest of

:54:39.:54:43.

the UK, but Scotland has some big differences. I want to start with

:54:44.:54:47.

oil, big fall in the price of oil has an impact on how much the

:54:48.:54:50.

government has to spend here? Yes, at the moment, effectively,

:54:51.:54:56.

virtually no revenues are being raised from oil. About five years

:54:57.:55:01.

ago there was ?11 billion a year being raised. It does make a huge

:55:02.:55:07.

difference to revenues. That is affecting economic growth and we

:55:08.:55:09.

have seen the figures from the end of last year. Economic growth

:55:10.:55:18.

struggling here. Power that affect people? Oil industry jobs are

:55:19.:55:24.

well-paid jobs. That has a knock-on effect through the economy. People

:55:25.:55:28.

have less to spend, their real incomes are lower than they were

:55:29.:55:32.

five or six years ago. As a result of that, less money to spend

:55:33.:55:37.

effectively because partly affected by inflation at the moment. People

:55:38.:55:42.

have less spending power than they have than before. Let's talk about

:55:43.:55:47.

Brexit because this has dominated this election campaign. How has it

:55:48.:55:51.

been in Scotland? Scotland doesn't export huge amount to the rest of

:55:52.:55:57.

Europe so that is less important to the migration issues. We have low

:55:58.:56:06.

skilled and high skilled from the rest of Europe. David, thank you and

:56:07.:56:14.

good to see you. So let's see how Naga is getting on. 15 breakfasts

:56:15.:56:17.

have been caught, but I am not seeing many. It didn't go well. They

:56:18.:56:26.

are slightly burnt underneath. I did promise I would serve Breakfast to

:56:27.:56:32.

the pipe band, deny? This is one she prepared area. I'm

:56:33.:56:39.

sorry I burnt the Breakfast, but this is healthy stuff, do you like

:56:40.:56:47.

fruit? Yes. Great, we can have this. Who says I don't deliver.

:56:48.:56:52.

We will be talking about the issues affecting voters six days to the

:56:53.:56:56.

general election. Now it is time for the news,

:56:57.:00:51.

This is Breakfast on Friday the 2nd of June.

:00:52.:00:54.

International condemnation for President Trump after he pulls

:00:55.:00:59.

America out of the Paris agreement on climate change

:01:00.:01:06.

We will see if we can make a deal that's fair and if we can, that's

:01:07.:01:11.

great. And if we can't, that's fine. Theresa May has told

:01:12.:01:15.

the President she's disappointed with his decision,

:01:16.:01:16.

while European leaders said there'd Whoever we are, we all share the

:01:17.:01:32.

same responsibility - make our planet great again.

:01:33.:01:51.

Good morning. We've brought the sofa to Dunfermline, Scotland's ancient

:01:52.:01:59.

capital. There are just six days to go until you cast your vote in the

:02:00.:02:03.

2017 general election. Away from all the politics, how will

:02:04.:02:07.

the economic affect the money in our pocket and what difference can make

:02:08.:02:10.

when voters go to the polls in just six days? Well, I've brought the

:02:11.:02:14.

Butty Van to meet some voters and local business to find out. Matt is

:02:15.:02:20.

here with the weather. Good morning. I'm in the grounds of

:02:21.:02:26.

the Abbey and the palace, a place of huge historical significance to

:02:27.:02:30.

Dunfermline and Scotland. Weather-wise, pretty humid and later

:02:31.:02:33.

ran thundery towards the south of the country. Fresher weather moving

:02:34.:02:37.

into the West and we weekend of sunshine and showers. All the

:02:38.:02:44.

details in the next 15 minutes. Good morning. We're here in

:02:45.:02:47.

Scotland's ancient capital, Dunfermline. The constituency of

:02:48.:02:52.

Dunfermline and West Fife over the past three elections has been with

:02:53.:02:57.

the Liberal Democrats, SNP and Labour and his constituencies like

:02:58.:03:01.

this that make the general election, or close calls in the general

:03:02.:03:04.

election, so interesting. We have been talking to voters and are going

:03:05.:03:08.

to be talking to politicians. They are talking to each other and voters

:03:09.:03:13.

to get their views, six days away from the general election, from when

:03:14.:03:18.

we all go to the polls. Ben is with the Butty Van and is going to be

:03:19.:03:22.

taking a look at what voters are thinking and also the economic

:03:23.:03:24.

issues that are affecting Scotland at the moment and, let me tell you,

:03:25.:03:29.

we are not far from the home of golf. St Andrews is about 30 miles

:03:30.:03:33.

away to talk match will have the weather for us in Dunfermline Abbey.

:03:34.:03:40.

Plenty going on. We're going to be talking about migration,

:03:41.:03:43.

independence and the economy. You can talk to us by getting in touch

:03:44.:03:48.

on social media or e-mailing us. I will have plenty more coming up.

:03:49.:03:51.

Let's go to Charlie for the latest news.

:03:52.:03:56.

Theresa May has expressed her disappointment over

:03:57.:03:59.

President Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from

:04:00.:04:02.

In a phone call with Mr Trump, the Prime Minister stressed that

:04:03.:04:05.

Britain remains committed to the agreement.

:04:06.:04:07.

Our North America correspondent, David Willis, has more.

:04:08.:04:12.

He'd promised this to the people who voted him into office.

:04:13.:04:14.

Nonetheless, it was a momentous announcement and one that drew swift

:04:15.:04:17.

As president, I have one obligation and that obligation

:04:18.:04:26.

President Trump believes, in a nutshell, that the Paris Accord

:04:27.:04:32.

impedes his ability to restore jobs to parts of the American heartland

:04:33.:04:36.

blighted by the move away from fossil fuels such

:04:37.:04:39.

Time, in his view, to put America first, a philosophy summed up

:04:40.:04:44.

I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris.

:04:45.:04:58.

Pittsburgh's mayor Bill Peduto swiftly responded, saying his city

:04:59.:05:00.

considered the heart of the American steel injury

:05:01.:05:04.

Donald Trump had previously said global warming was a hoax

:05:05.:05:13.

He is now saying he'd be willing to re-negotiate the Paris Accord,

:05:14.:05:17.

albeit on terms more favourable to the US, but European leaders want

:05:18.:05:20.

France will not give up the fight. I reaffirm clearly that the Paris

:05:21.:05:38.

agreement remains irreversible and will be implemented, not just by

:05:39.:05:43.

France but by all the other nations. Those gathered outside

:05:44.:05:48.

the White House to protest the President's decision believe

:05:49.:05:50.

the departure of the second-largest polluter on the planet will have a

:05:51.:05:52.

dramatic impact But Donald Trump believes his

:05:53.:05:54.

decision represents an assertion of American sovereignty,

:05:55.:05:58.

whilst his critics believe it's Let's get some reaction

:05:59.:06:00.

from home and abroad. We'll talk to Damian Grammaticas

:06:01.:06:12.

in Brussels in a moment, but first our political

:06:13.:06:14.

correspondent Leila Nathoo We know there was this late-night

:06:15.:06:22.

phone call, Donald Trump calling Theresa May. What do we know about

:06:23.:06:29.

what was said? Theresa May expressed her disappointment at President

:06:30.:06:34.

Trump's decision. She said that she continued to stand by the Paris

:06:35.:06:37.

agreement and she believed it was the right framework. Win over

:06:38.:06:43.

France, Italy and Germany have signed this joint letter of

:06:44.:06:46.

condemnation but Britain hasn't there has some criticism of Theresa

:06:47.:06:50.

May for not taking a more forceful stance against President Trump's

:06:51.:06:55.

decision. I think it will revive allegations that she is not able, or

:06:56.:07:00.

unwilling to stand up to President Trump when she wants or needs to

:07:01.:07:04.

because of the desire to stay close to America after Britain leads the

:07:05.:07:10.

EU. Labour accusing Theresa May of a dereliction of duty for not trying

:07:11.:07:13.

to persuade President Trump to think again. The Liberal Democrats are

:07:14.:07:17.

saying this is exactly the point of a special relationship - we should

:07:18.:07:20.

be able to commence President Trump to think differently. The government

:07:21.:07:24.

is very clear, though, that they are taking a different approach. Let's

:07:25.:07:28.

go to Damian Grammaticas in Brussels. Looking at President

:07:29.:07:33.

macron's rather pointed use of words, we want to make the planet

:07:34.:07:38.

great again, how is that reflected among other EU leaders? The

:07:39.:07:45.

sentiments are shared right across the European Union. What was really

:07:46.:07:48.

striking last night was that as soon as that announcement came from

:07:49.:07:54.

Washington, we had a whole slew of announcements from across the EU all

:07:55.:07:59.

saying the same thing, all coordinators, all obviously

:08:00.:08:01.

prepared, saying this was a sad day, they did not share the same opinion,

:08:02.:08:06.

they regretted the decision from the US. We heard about the joint

:08:07.:08:11.

statement from France, Germany and Italy, saying this could not be

:08:12.:08:16.

renegotiated. What we are going to see today now is here in Brussels

:08:17.:08:21.

the Chinese premier, the Chinese Prime Minister, in Brussels for a

:08:22.:08:26.

prescheduled summit, at which one of the key declarations will be that

:08:27.:08:31.

both the EU and all its countries and China remain committed to the

:08:32.:08:35.

Paris Accord and will continue to meet their obligations under that,

:08:36.:08:38.

so what they wish to signal here is that there will be no turning back,

:08:39.:08:43.

because they do not want any fraying of what they call historic

:08:44.:08:48.

achievements, under the Paris Accord, to result from Donald

:08:49.:08:52.

Trump's decision in America. So a very strong signal here that Europe

:08:53.:08:55.

and China will work together to remain committed to that. Thank you.

:08:56.:09:02.

Thanks to Damian Grammaticas in Brussels and Leila Matthew in

:09:03.:09:03.

Westminster. The Conservatives have

:09:04.:09:09.

denied their immigration policy is in confusion,

:09:10.:09:10.

after a minister played down Theresa The Prime Minister appeared

:09:11.:09:12.

to signal her aim was to reduce net migration to under 100,000 in

:09:13.:09:16.

the next five years. But her Brexit Secretary,

:09:17.:09:19.

David Davis, sounded a more cautious note -

:09:20.:09:20.

saying it was no more than an aim. Elsewhere in the campaign,

:09:21.:09:24.

Labour is promising to create a million new jobs,

:09:25.:09:26.

while the Lib Dems are warning Jeremy Corbyn will say today that

:09:27.:09:28.

a Labour government would pump ?250 billion into industry

:09:29.:09:33.

through a new National But the former Lib Dem business

:09:34.:09:36.

secretary, Sir Vince Cable, believes both Labour and the Tories

:09:37.:09:43.

will face questions from a studio audience tonight in a special

edition of Question Time. Our reporter Danni Hewson is in York

:09:57.:09:59.

ahead of the event - but if viewers were hoping to see

:10:00.:10:06.

the pair go head-to-head, Absolutely right. This is the first

:10:07.:10:21.

time Theresa May has taken part in a debate format but if you are

:10:22.:10:24.

expecting her to go head-to-head with Jeremy Corbyn, you are going to

:10:25.:10:28.

be disappointed. Instead, it is going to be the audience that are

:10:29.:10:32.

going to be grilling the leaders and if you remember what happened two

:10:33.:10:35.

years ago down the road in Leeds, it was pretty ferocious. Of course,

:10:36.:10:40.

there has been a lot of criticism of Theresa May, about her decision not

:10:41.:10:44.

to attend the debate on Wednesday after Jeremy Corbyn changed his mind

:10:45.:10:48.

and showed up. So expect those questions to come thick and fast.

:10:49.:10:54.

Everything is ready. There is tight security, the police are doing

:10:55.:10:59.

last-minute checks around the area, and as those polls narrow, there

:11:00.:11:03.

really is everything to play for, so expect some heated debate, some

:11:04.:11:07.

tough questions and some very interesting answers. Thank you for

:11:08.:11:10.

that. Question Time is on BBC One

:11:11.:11:12.

from 8.30pm this evening. The Met Police say they have so far

:11:13.:11:14.

found no records of any calls to the anti-terrorist hotline

:12:12.:12:15.

a time when targets were being met. NHS England declined to respond

:12:16.:12:20.

directly to the six-month figures. But a spokesperson has

:12:21.:12:23.

said, "The NHS has cut the number of patients

Naga has been in Dunfermline talking about the issues affecting

:13:01.:13:19.

voters in Scotland. We have been crisscrossing the UK

:13:20.:13:26.

getting reaction ahead of the election.

:13:27.:13:33.

We have ended up in Dunfermline, the ancient capital of Scotland, not far

:13:34.:13:37.

from the home of golf. I wonder why I got sent it! We're talking to the

:13:38.:13:42.

politicians. Two years ago there was a political shock wave when the SNP

:13:43.:13:46.

won 56 of the 59 seats in Westminster. Labour was almost wiped

:13:47.:13:53.

out as the Lib Dems, the Conservatives and Labour were left

:13:54.:13:58.

with one seat each. Can the Tories, Labour and Lib Dem group back of

:13:59.:14:05.

those seats? Joining us is someone from all other four main parties,

:14:06.:14:10.

Christine Jardine, Liberal Democrat candidate, Dean Lockhart,

:14:11.:14:23.

Conservative, and Labour and SNP candidates. Welcome to breakfast.

:14:24.:14:28.

Let's start off with the SNP. We were looking up the newspapers

:14:29.:14:33.

earlier and on the front pages, it focused a lot on Nicola Sturgeon's

:14:34.:14:38.

approval ratings, at the lowest ever point, the papers are saying,

:14:39.:14:41.

according to the polls, and they are suggesting that the reason is that

:14:42.:14:44.

she is at her least popular moment because of a push or the quest for

:14:45.:14:49.

independence. Do you think this has turned off voters?

:14:50.:14:55.

I do not. People realise it is a Westminster election with big issues

:14:56.:15:02.

decided over pensions, over Europe. Nicola Sturgeon remains popular.

:15:03.:15:08.

Theresa May, Jeremy Corbyn... She remains popular with voters, as do

:15:09.:15:13.

SNP policies and the policies we will pursue to draw back on

:15:14.:15:18.

austerity and holds the Tories to account and work on having a

:15:19.:15:23.

positive relationship with European partners that benefits jobs,

:15:24.:15:27.

economy, education, research and the Food Drink industry. And you have

:15:28.:15:35.

made a U-turn? We have always said... The Lib Dems want a

:15:36.:15:40.

referendum that we have said at the end of the negotiation with the rest

:15:41.:15:43.

of Europe, people in Scotland should be given a choice, given Scotland

:15:44.:15:49.

voted overwhelmingly to remain part of the EU. And also we offered a

:15:50.:15:56.

compromise, putting aside the independence referendum, a

:15:57.:15:59.

substantial set of detailed proposals to remain in the single

:16:00.:16:04.

market and maintain freedom of movement and the relationship with

:16:05.:16:08.

European partners. You have not changed on the independence

:16:09.:16:12.

referendum? We said we would give people a choice at the end of the

:16:13.:16:18.

Brexit negotiations. Let's take a look at a story that made the front

:16:19.:16:22.

page of The Times newspaper with the Labour Party saying they will use

:16:23.:16:29.

the SNP to give us power. There seems to be a conflict. Emily

:16:30.:16:35.

Thornberry saying no coalition is planned with the SNP. The

:16:36.:16:39.

implication Jeremy Corbyn is keen to work with the SNP. What is your

:16:40.:16:43.

message? The message is clear in the manifesto. Opposition to a second

:16:44.:16:50.

independence referendum. I asked you about a coalition with the SNP. We

:16:51.:16:54.

are working towards a Labour majority government. Any talk before

:16:55.:17:01.

then is frankly speculation. You do not think the party is preparing to

:17:02.:17:06.

have a coalition with the SNP? Not to my knowledge. Emily Thornberry is

:17:07.:17:14.

talking about a minority government. You need to ask Emily about that. I

:17:15.:17:21.

am campaigning for a Labour government, majority government,

:17:22.:17:25.

because that is the best way we can deliver a strong set of proposals in

:17:26.:17:30.

the manifesto. The Conservatives. Interesting what is happening at the

:17:31.:17:33.

moment. Decision made on the referendum. I was talking to a

:17:34.:17:41.

journalist earlier and he said Ruth Davidson is running away from

:17:42.:17:47.

Theresa May's manifesto. Talking about the fox hunting U-turn, winter

:17:48.:17:51.

fuel allowances and the disparity and how that relationship is going.

:17:52.:17:56.

Do you accept she is running away from the party leader's message? I

:17:57.:18:03.

do not. Devolution means we can have different policies. There is

:18:04.:18:06.

difference and there is clashing. With winter fuel payments, we said

:18:07.:18:13.

we have a different climate here and different needs. We have two strong

:18:14.:18:19.

leaders in Theresa May and Ruth Davidson and I do not think there is

:18:20.:18:24.

a difference in emphasis. There is a slight difference in policy but that

:18:25.:18:28.

is not an issue. Ruth Davidson is not running away from Theresa May's

:18:29.:18:36.

policies? No. Devolution is devolved powers to the Scottish Parliament

:18:37.:18:40.

and using them where relevant in a different fashion for the needs of

:18:41.:18:46.

Scottish people. Let me say, the SNP asked standing on a manifesto saying

:18:47.:18:51.

they are stronger for Scotland and ten years in government in Scotland

:18:52.:18:56.

shows they are not stronger for Scotland. Christine, let me talk

:18:57.:18:59.

about the Liberal Democrats. A decision has been made on the

:19:00.:19:04.

Scottish referendum. You said there is no need for another referendum

:19:05.:19:08.

yet the decision was made on Brexit and you want another EU referendum.

:19:09.:19:18.

Two very different decisions were made and different starting points

:19:19.:19:22.

and end points. To give the S credit they gave a White Paper that

:19:23.:19:26.

laid out the deal and it was rejected and once you have rejected

:19:27.:19:29.

the deal there is nowhere else to go. With Europe, we never saw

:19:30.:19:35.

anything except a bus with figures on it. People said no. We have no

:19:36.:19:40.

idea what the deal is. Once we get the deal, which is where we were

:19:41.:19:45.

with the SNP, then the British people have the right to say we are

:19:46.:19:50.

better off where we are. I believe we are better off where we are and

:19:51.:19:53.

as we see how bad the deal is going to be. There will be no good deal. I

:19:54.:20:01.

said the Lib Dems, labour and Conservative have one seat. Are you

:20:02.:20:04.

strong enough going on the anti-Brexit policy? That is not the

:20:05.:20:10.

only thing we have. We have strong policies specifically for Scotland,

:20:11.:20:19.

wanting to invest in health care, education, which the SNP have

:20:20.:20:24.

forgotten about. The only thing they have given is legislation on a

:20:25.:20:29.

referendum that took 44 days. The mental health strategy was 15 months

:20:30.:20:32.

late and that we want to focus on. Christine, thanks. Thank you very

:20:33.:20:38.

much all for your time. We will leave them to talk amongst

:20:39.:20:44.

themselves. Matt has the weather. He has been at the Abbey. Where are

:20:45.:20:49.

you? I am a little bit closer. I can see

:20:50.:20:56.

the butty van. We have come into the park. Known locally as the glen.

:20:57.:21:05.

This stowed on the residents of Dunfermline by Andrew card needy,

:21:06.:21:08.

the world-famous philanthropist. He was born in Dunfermline -- Andrew

:21:09.:21:19.

Carnegie. We are in here and it is beautiful surroundings. Grey skies

:21:20.:21:24.

at the moment. The forecast is not the same everywhere. The rain is

:21:25.:21:30.

separating humid air in eastern parts and something fresher further

:21:31.:21:36.

west. Over the next hour we have rain clearing. Continuing to move

:21:37.:21:45.

eastwards. To the west of that, across parts of Northern Ireland and

:21:46.:21:49.

Scotland, rain has cleared with sunny spells and one or two showers.

:21:50.:21:57.

Still cloudy through much of eastern Scotland with rain. Lingering in

:21:58.:22:02.

Shetland. Over the next two hours, rainy at times in northern England.

:22:03.:22:10.

Down through western areas. Further south and east, starting dry.

:22:11.:22:16.

Already feeling humid. Temperatures rocketing up where you have the

:22:17.:22:22.

sunshine. The best of the sunshine through the morning. As it moves

:22:23.:22:32.

into the humid air, we could see storms. 26-28d possible. Some storms

:22:33.:22:40.

will be torrential in places. Further west, fresher. Many will

:22:41.:22:43.

have an afternoon of sunshine with isolated showers. Tonight, showers

:22:44.:22:52.

across eastern parts. Isolated showers in the west. The big story

:22:53.:22:56.

will it will be cooler than the last few nights. Down into single figures

:22:57.:23:04.

in parts. The south-east holding on to humidity but it will not last

:23:05.:23:10.

long. Into Saturday and we will see humid air cleared away. England and

:23:11.:23:13.

Wales probably enjoying the best of the sunshine on Saturday. Isolated

:23:14.:23:20.

showers in the west. Scotland and Northern Ireland will have sunshine

:23:21.:23:25.

interrupted by showers, some on the thundery side. Sunday, we do it all

:23:26.:23:35.

again. Maybe more showers across England and Wales. The bulk of

:23:36.:23:41.

showers in Scotland and Northern Ireland. The next days, UV levels

:23:42.:23:48.

will be high. That is how it is looking.

:23:49.:23:58.

Back to you. We are here with our Scotland correspondent. You have

:23:59.:24:03.

avoided the food so far, very wise! I was talking to politicians,

:24:04.:24:07.

questioning what they are tackling now. Six days until the polls. What

:24:08.:24:13.

are they focusing on? A couple of big themes. The Unionist parties in

:24:14.:24:19.

Scotland, they are trying to attack the SNP which remember was a party

:24:20.:24:26.

of opposition at Westminster and a party of government in Scotland.

:24:27.:24:32.

They are trying to attack the SNP record in government at Holyrood.

:24:33.:24:36.

These are devolved issues and strictly speaking you should not be

:24:37.:24:44.

voting on those in an general election. The S say they have a

:24:45.:24:50.

lot to be proud of and are robustly defending their record but it is one

:24:51.:24:54.

area of attack in the general election. The other is the Unionist

:24:55.:25:00.

divided. That is a big issue. The parties that have the clearest

:25:01.:25:06.

position constitutionally seem to be the ones cutting through. Looking at

:25:07.:25:12.

the lie of the land at the last general election. The SNP are a very

:25:13.:25:18.

big party, winning all but three seats at the last general election.

:25:19.:25:22.

It would be hard for them to do any better this time. They are trying to

:25:23.:25:29.

defend a large number of seats. They may lose some, but they will try to

:25:30.:25:36.

keep the momentum and mood and they are fighting for them. How is Brexit

:25:37.:25:45.

playing into the parties? The SNP said they want a seat at the

:25:46.:25:49.

negotiating table over Brexit. They say a vote for them will strengthen

:25:50.:25:55.

their hand in negotiations. It is an issue playing out on the doorstep.

:25:56.:26:01.

People care greatly about this. The majority of people in Scotland voted

:26:02.:26:07.

in favour of remaining in the EU. When you speak to people they are

:26:08.:26:10.

concerned about the issue, be it they want to remain in the EU or

:26:11.:26:17.

they want to they think is the best person to carry forward

:26:18.:26:21.

negotiations, which is a big part of the Conservatives' strategy. It is

:26:22.:26:25.

an issue people care about but when it comes to referendums, the one

:26:26.:26:30.

uppermost is the possibility of a second independence referendum on

:26:31.:26:35.

the doorsteps. The hats that is the one people are talking about more

:26:36.:26:40.

and certainly the one the Unionist parties are talking about more. The

:26:41.:26:45.

Unionist parties are saying no to a second referendum and making it part

:26:46.:26:49.

of their campaign. We will speak to voters and politicians later.

:26:50.:26:53.

That is the Dunfermline and district piping band. They will play you out

:26:54.:27:06.

ahead of your getting big use where you are.

:27:07.:30:28.

Hello, this is Breakfast with Charlie Stayt here

:30:29.:30:44.

in the studio,and Naga Munchetty is in Dunfermline.

:30:45.:30:47.

Some wonderful shots from above the city. We have been all across the UK

:30:48.:30:54.

as part of our general election coverage and this morning we are in

:30:55.:30:59.

Scotland. This time next week we will know the result of the general

:31:00.:31:04.

election. We will be going back to Dunfermline in a few minutes time.

:31:05.:31:07.

Theresa May has expressed her disappointment over

:31:08.:31:09.

President Trump's decision to withdraw the United States from

:31:10.:31:11.

Mr Trump said the deal disadvantaged the US

:31:12.:31:15.

World leaders have reacted with dismay to the move,

:31:16.:31:22.

with Chinese and EU leaders meeting in Brussels to make a joint

:31:23.:31:25.

The Conservatives have denied their immigration

:31:26.:31:31.

policy is in confusion, after a minister played down Theresa

:31:32.:31:33.

The Prime Minister appeared to signal her aim was to reduce

:31:34.:31:46.

net migration to under 100,000 in the next five years.

:31:47.:31:48.

But her Brexit Secretary, David Davis, sounded

:31:49.:31:50.

a more cautious note - saying it was no more than an aim.

:31:51.:31:53.

Elsewhere in the campaign, Labour is promising to create

:31:54.:31:57.

a million new jobs, while the Lib Dems are warning

:31:58.:32:00.

Jeremy Corbyn will say today that a Labour government

:32:01.:32:06.

would pump ?250 billion into industry through

:32:07.:32:08.

But the former Lib Dem Business Secretary, Sir Vince Cable,

:32:09.:32:13.

believes both Labour and the Tories have turned their backs on business,

:32:14.:32:15.

and will warn trade could drop by a third following Britain's

:32:16.:32:18.

Theresa May and Jeremy Corbyn will face questions from a studio

:32:19.:32:26.

audience tonight in a special edition of Question Time.

:32:27.:32:29.

Our reporter, Danni Hewson, is in York ahead of the event,

:32:30.:32:32.

but if viewers were hoping to see the pair go head-to-head

:32:33.:32:36.

The set is up and the podium is ready. All it takes is for the

:32:37.:32:48.

shrink wrap to come off, and of course, the leaders. There is a

:32:49.:32:51.

great deal of anticipation ahead of the event tonight because this is

:32:52.:32:54.

the first time Theresa May has faced a debate style format. She has faced

:32:55.:32:59.

criticism for deciding not to attend the Leaders' Debate on Wednesday

:33:00.:33:04.

when Jeremy Corbyn decided he would go along. If you are expecting a

:33:05.:33:08.

head-to-head between Jeremy Corbyn and Theresa May, you will be

:33:09.:33:12.

disappointed. Instead, the audience will be asking the questions. It

:33:13.:33:17.

will be chaired by David Dimbleby, his tenth election. A couple of

:33:18.:33:23.

years ago in Leeds, it is the audience that makes it. Two years

:33:24.:33:28.

ago they certainly brought the fireworks. With the poll in

:33:29.:33:31.

narrowing, expect some pretty tough questioning tonight because there is

:33:32.:33:37.

all to play for here. Six days of campaigning left to go before the

:33:38.:33:39.

election on June eight. Question Time is on BBC One

:33:40.:33:44.

from 8:30pm this evening. The Met Police say they have so far

:33:45.:33:47.

found no records of any calls to the Anti-Terrorist hotline

:33:48.:33:50.

in relation to the Manchester bomber, despite a number of people

:33:51.:33:52.

saying they had reported concerns It comes as Greater

:33:53.:33:55.

Manchester Police have released new CCTV footage,

:33:56.:34:01.

showing Abedi in the city in the Detectives say they're now

:34:02.:34:03.

concentrating their investigation on the Rusholme area

:34:04.:34:08.

and are appealing for witnesses At least 36 bodies have been

:34:09.:34:24.

recovered after an armed robber opened fire at a casino in the

:34:25.:34:25.

Philippines. The attacker also set

:34:26.:34:30.

fire to gaming tables. Authorities say most of the people

:34:31.:34:31.

who lost their lives An attempt will be launched today

:34:32.:34:34.

to oust Len McCluskey Gerard Coyne - who tried

and failed to defeat Mr McCluskey in an election

:34:43.:34:45.

earlier this year - will ask the trade union regulator

:34:46.:34:48.

to rule the contest was invalid. He says he was the victim

:34:49.:34:51.

of repeated harassment by union employees, when he challenged

:34:52.:34:53.

Unite's general A Unite spokeswoman said the union

:34:54.:34:55.

had conformed with the law. A ten month old boy has crawled

:34:56.:35:01.

to victory to be crowned The competition - held every year

:35:02.:35:04.

in the capital Vilnius - sees babies scramble across a five

:35:05.:35:12.

metre long red carpet, The toddler's trial. The parents

:35:13.:35:23.

getting animated like Chelsea's Antonio Conte. But the early

:35:24.:35:28.

frontrunners go off to a early. But it's taken by a nappy.

:35:29.:35:34.

It was touch and go for a while, but here is young Mykolas Pociunas.

:35:35.:35:40.

Was there a plan, did he hold back? He did sit at the start waiting for

:35:41.:35:46.

the other babies to spend themselves out. Looking on the left of the

:35:47.:35:57.

screen, we saw the winner. The others went off too fast and then

:35:58.:36:00.

stopped within touching distance of the line. A fantastic sprint. He

:36:01.:36:07.

seizes his chance to burst through. It shows you the power of support.

:36:08.:36:13.

It was the support on the sideline. The dangling of the character.

:36:14.:36:18.

Mobile phones and remote controls are used to lure the babies. And now

:36:19.:36:21.

for the real world of sport... England are now billed as the

:36:22.:36:32.

to get better all the time. It's a really enjoyable team to bat

:37:04.:37:06.

in and be a part of. Hopefully we can take a lot

of confidence from today And England should find out this

morning if all-rounder Chris Woakes will miss the rest

:37:16.:37:23.

of the tournament, after he left after he left the field after two

overs yesterday with a side strain. It was a good day for Britain

at the French Open yesterday, with world number one Andy Murray

and Kyle Edmund both Murray had a tough battle,

with the world number He had to fight back

:37:38.:37:41.

after losing the opening set, He'll face Juan Martin

:37:42.:37:44.

Del Potro next. He has obviously been very

:37:45.:37:54.

unfortunate with injuries through his career. This year he's also had

:37:55.:38:00.

a lot of tough draws as well. Looking at the matches he has lost,

:38:01.:38:04.

they have mainly been against the top guys early on in tournaments. I

:38:05.:38:08.

think he deserves to be ranked higher than he is. I'm expecting it

:38:09.:38:11.

to be very tough. While good sportsmanship was also

:38:12.:38:14.

flowing in Paris, Nicolas Almagro was almost inconsolable

:38:15.:38:17.

after he was forced to retire Smiling through his tears and really

:38:18.:38:20.

frustrated. And so opponent

for the first time in his career. He'll be up against South African

Kevin Anderson next. What's on tomorrow morning including

:38:45.:38:55.

the first match for the British and Irish Lions in their tour. It's an

:38:56.:39:00.

invitation team they're playing against. The first taste of the New

:39:01.:39:05.

Zealand crowd. Warren Gatland facing a team that includes his son, very

:39:06.:39:10.

interesting. Looking forward to that. We will hear from Warren

:39:11.:39:12.

Gatland about that tomorrow. Throughout the general election

:39:13.:39:16.

campaign Breakfast has been crisscrossing the country to find

:39:17.:39:18.

out about the issues Crossing the Forth Bridge, sticking

:39:19.:39:20.

close to the speed limit. The van has been travelling across

:39:21.:39:43.

the country and we have brought it here to Dunfermline. The ancient

:39:44.:39:47.

capital of Scotland. The team is with me, Ben will be speaking to

:39:48.:39:51.

voters this morning about their views and we are just six days from

:39:52.:39:57.

the general election and casting our faults. Matt will deliver the

:39:58.:40:01.

weather from the van. We have left the cooking to him. We have decided

:40:02.:40:05.

I'm not a safe pair of hands. I have some politicians here this morning.

:40:06.:40:09.

We were talking earlier but I will introduce you again. Christine

:40:10.:40:13.

Jardine, candidate for Lib Dems in Edinburgh West. Dean Lockhart of the

:40:14.:40:22.

mid-Scott Fife conservatives. Daniel Johnston, former MSP for Labour. And

:40:23.:40:38.

the SNP candidate for Fife. What has perked our interest this morning,

:40:39.:40:43.

The Times has a picture of Donald Trump after pulling out of the

:40:44.:40:47.

climate change accord. The headline here it is, we will use the SNP to

:40:48.:40:53.

give us Power says Labour. Jeremy Corbyn's plan for minority

:40:54.:40:57.

government revealed, so says the Times. This morning Nicola Sturgeon

:40:58.:41:00.

has spoken again to the BBC and she says if there is a hung parliament

:41:01.:41:05.

then I would want the SNP to be part of a progressive alternative to the

:41:06.:41:11.

Conservatives and not a coalition. Interesting she is working towards

:41:12.:41:14.

this kind of partnership now. Is this what you expected? What I find

:41:15.:41:19.

interesting, and we do have colleagues here from the Scottish

:41:20.:41:23.

parliament, is that this old-fashioned idea that a party gets

:41:24.:41:26.

a third of the vote and then has a majority, which happened to the

:41:27.:41:32.

Tories last time, why can't parties have to work together? No political

:41:33.:41:36.

party has a majority of the wisdom or a monopoly on wisdom. We see it

:41:37.:41:41.

in other European countries and with the Scottish parliament where

:41:42.:41:44.

parties have to work together. That doesn't mean coalition, it can mean

:41:45.:41:48.

minority government and parties having priority. But if you have a

:41:49.:41:54.

strong voice with the SNP, then Scotland has a stronger voice at

:41:55.:41:59.

Westminster. Daniel, we were talking about whether or not Labour is

:42:00.:42:02.

looking for a coalition with the SNP. The front page of The Times

:42:03.:42:07.

says Jeremy Corbyn is, but Emily Thornberry says it will not work.

:42:08.:42:11.

Nicola Sturgeon says she doesn't want one. The thing all political

:42:12.:42:15.

parties have to look at in the lead up to an election is winning votes.

:42:16.:42:19.

That's what Labour will try to do. It's interesting for Stephen Gethin

:42:20.:42:28.

is with the prospect that only Labour can form a government in

:42:29.:42:35.

England. The reality is, to gain influence in the UK Government,

:42:36.:42:38.

that's the only way the SNP would do it. The reality is you will either

:42:39.:42:42.

have a Conservative government or a Labour led government. Those are the

:42:43.:42:48.

broad choices the public has. But Nicola Sturgeon doesn't want a

:42:49.:42:50.

coalition and Jeremy Corbyn says he's to have one. We will see what

:42:51.:42:56.

result we have in a week. In advance of that, I don't think... Any

:42:57.:43:02.

politician can't predict what the result will be. You are shaking your

:43:03.:43:09.

head stuck in it shows the chaos we would have if these two parties

:43:10.:43:12.

formed a coalition together. If you vote for Labour you will get SNP,

:43:13.:43:17.

and it also shows the only party you can trust with the union is the

:43:18.:43:22.

Conservative Party. If there is a coalition between Labour and the

:43:23.:43:26.

SNP, the SNP would demand another independence referendum as part of

:43:27.:43:35.

that coalition. This line about the Conservatives making the union safe,

:43:36.:43:40.

and the only party that can do that, is nonsense. We have to move on to

:43:41.:43:50.

the voters soon. You say you disagree. We are 100% against

:43:51.:43:54.

another Scottish referendum and against independence. The

:43:55.:44:00.

Conservatives not the only party against independence. The SNP and

:44:01.:44:03.

the Green party are the only ones who are for it. Dean is still

:44:04.:44:09.

shaking his head. What's your right to reply. There are liberal

:44:10.:44:14.

candidates in the election who have supported independence in the past.

:44:15.:44:20.

There is a candidates sitting in Dundee in this election who has

:44:21.:44:24.

campaigned for independence. It was in the newspapers yesterday. I think

:44:25.:44:28.

the Lib Dems have a chequered history when it comes to being 100%

:44:29.:44:37.

behind the union. The voters are listening to how you are talking and

:44:38.:44:41.

what you are saying and the messages coming across. Ben is taking a look

:44:42.:44:45.

at that. The great and good joining us for

:44:46.:44:49.

breakfast this morning. A lot of debate already this morning over the

:44:50.:44:53.

breakfast table about what the politicians have said and the

:44:54.:44:56.

biggest issues when we go to the polls in six days' time. Brexit is

:44:57.:45:01.

one of the big issues on the minds of voters. We can hear those

:45:02.:45:08.

opinions. You have a shop in town. It's the heart of the community, a

:45:09.:45:13.

law come to your shop, but you had a reaction on the morning of the

:45:14.:45:14.

Brexit vote. 'S house on the morning of the vote

:45:15.:45:25.

my initial reaction was to cry. I have never cried at a political

:45:26.:45:30.

decision before. I have been angry but I haven't cried. The thing that

:45:31.:45:36.

made me cry wasn't the Brexit, it was the bile and racism and vitriol

:45:37.:45:42.

and misinformation seems to have swayed enough people to make that

:45:43.:45:47.

decision. Not the perfectly legitimate people who want to exit

:45:48.:45:50.

the European Union for other reasons. That is what upset me. I

:45:51.:45:56.

thought that it made Britain a worse place to be. How does that affect

:45:57.:46:02.

your voting intentions in six days? That in itself does not shake my

:46:03.:46:06.

voting intentions. I am living the Brexit vote every day. The industry

:46:07.:46:13.

that I am involved in, the UK comic book industry, has been brought to

:46:14.:46:17.

its knees by the collapse of the pound because it is entirely import

:46:18.:46:22.

based. Does it make things more expensive? Absolutely. There is a

:46:23.:46:26.

finite amount of money in the economy and that is not money people

:46:27.:46:30.

can afford to spend. There are comic shops closing every week. And real

:46:31.:46:36.

people are losing their livelihoods and communities that have been built

:46:37.:46:41.

up over decades. Jonathan, your view is very much the opposite. When it

:46:42.:46:46.

comes to cost it about spending money? Yes, I think it would be good

:46:47.:46:54.

to separate but I was hoping that when we did separate it increases

:46:55.:46:57.

more home industries. We are a country of consumers, not

:46:58.:47:02.

manufacturers. So I was hoping it would encourage people from farming

:47:03.:47:08.

to manufacturing to everything, industries would increase rather

:47:09.:47:12.

than decrease. I think that will happen. They have nowhere else to

:47:13.:47:16.

go. The big supermarkets can't go to Spain or Europe. It might encourage

:47:17.:47:23.

the small shops. It could be local rather than from overseas. Really

:47:24.:47:28.

interesting. More from you guys later. You can see the difference in

:47:29.:47:32.

debate over the breakfast table. Back to you, Nagata.

:47:33.:47:37.

There is a difference of opinion here as well. We are going to get

:47:38.:47:41.

your view about what the voters are saying about Brexit. Matt has been

:47:42.:47:46.

put in charge of the cooking because I failed miserably at it. And he is

:47:47.:47:51.

also really good at telling us about the weather as well.

:47:52.:47:56.

Good morning, Matt. Thank you. I have taken it into my own hands. I

:47:57.:48:00.

have been here several hours and I have not had breakfast yet.

:48:01.:48:05.

Weather-wise, it is all dry. Lovely view of the park behind me. Should

:48:06.:48:12.

stay dry through much of the day. Across the UK, it is an east-west

:48:13.:48:17.

split. Eastern areas humid. Western areas turning fresher. In between we

:48:18.:48:22.

have a weather front. That weather front is a cross is in Scotland at

:48:23.:48:29.

the moment. Some outbreaks of rain. Confined to the likes of Shetland as

:48:30.:48:31.

far as Easter in Scotland is concerned. To the west of the front,

:48:32.:48:37.

fresh conditions. Some showers later on. The sunshine is coming through

:48:38.:48:45.

and boosting the temperatures. The heat will really build into the

:48:46.:48:48.

afternoon. As the weather front pushes eastwards during the day, it

:48:49.:48:52.

does fragment a little bit into showers. Some people will not see

:48:53.:48:55.

the rain across England and Wales. It interacts with that air in the

:48:56.:49:03.

south-east and East Anglia, we could see temperatures of 28 degrees this

:49:04.:49:06.

afternoon. Also some nasty thunderstorms. Most part of UK 17 to

:49:07.:49:16.

19 degrees. And showers for the weekend. Showers most frequent in

:49:17.:49:19.

Scotland and Northern Ireland. Thank you, Matt. I'm so pleased that

:49:20.:49:31.

we got the rain not coming here today. There was a concern about

:49:32.:49:42.

that. It is all good. The weather is always glorious in Fife. We were

:49:43.:49:47.

listening to the voters earlier talking about Brexit. I wanted to

:49:48.:49:50.

get your thoughts on their concerns, Christine? The gentleman talking

:49:51.:49:56.

about the effect on the comic book industry because of the collapse of

:49:57.:49:59.

the plant, that is just the start of the problems we are going to face

:50:00.:50:04.

because Brexit -- because of Brexit. We have 80,000 jobs in Scotland at

:50:05.:50:09.

risk at the moment, which is why so many of us might find it frustrating

:50:10.:50:13.

that Conservative representatives who were part of the campaign have

:50:14.:50:17.

flipped and are telling people Brexit is fine. People are wondering

:50:18.:50:23.

what is going on. I was a shopkeeper before I became an MSP. People think

:50:24.:50:30.

of things in terms of currency. Small businesses get quite badly

:50:31.:50:35.

affected. Costs go up immediately. They are buying things from the

:50:36.:50:40.

continent. The cost of Brexit being borne by small shopkeepers down the

:50:41.:50:45.

country. Small businesses are affected. Think about university

:50:46.:50:50.

jobs, research jobs, food and drink industry. I was in Westminster MP of

:50:51.:50:54.

the last parliament. What I frown frustrating was the lack of answers.

:50:55.:50:58.

Freedom movement, doctors and nurses who work in the NHS. We weren't

:50:59.:51:03.

getting these basic answers. I will agree with Daniel and Christine.

:51:04.:51:07.

There is a human element. It is all very well debating this at this

:51:08.:51:13.

level. But folk who don't know whether or not they can stay in the

:51:14.:51:17.

UK, these are the answers they expect from us as politicians. We

:51:18.:51:24.

should be able to give them. The attack is on a lack of clarity from

:51:25.:51:31.

the Conservatives? That is work in progress. I voted to remain but I'm

:51:32.:51:35.

a Democrat. I will respect the result. We need to make the best of

:51:36.:51:42.

it. What we have tried to do is expedite a discussion on how we

:51:43.:51:46.

protect EU citizens in the UK, because we value the contributions

:51:47.:51:49.

they make. I'm very confident that we will get a good deal during the

:51:50.:51:55.

negotiations. Because economically Europe exports more to the UK than

:51:56.:52:01.

vice versa. So economically, it's in the interest of Europe to have a

:52:02.:52:07.

good trade agreement with the UK. In the last Parliament iPod down along

:52:08.:52:13.

with my party to give EU nationals certainty. Try to give the food and

:52:14.:52:18.

to and the university sector that certainty as well. While I got

:52:19.:52:22.

cross-party consensus, it was the Tories who blocked it. You could

:52:23.:52:25.

have given people the certainty. You have that power. You can do it. I

:52:26.:52:31.

don't think it is good enough to say it is work in progress. Brexit is

:52:32.:52:36.

coming in 18 months. To say they will come up with a plan is not good

:52:37.:52:44.

enough. The cost of not having access to people will be ?6 billion

:52:45.:52:47.

to the economy. We need answers and how we are going to deal with these

:52:48.:52:53.

is is now. Massive frustration. The voters are not sure now. It is

:52:54.:52:58.

affecting them now. The Prime Minister has set out 12 objectives

:52:59.:53:03.

in the negotiations. In the next 18 months what we will see our concrete

:53:04.:53:06.

steps towards putting in place a strong trade agreement. Every single

:53:07.:53:11.

European country outside of the EU has a free-trade agreement with the

:53:12.:53:16.

EU. And I think we will enter up after this process having strong

:53:17.:53:19.

agreement. Let me make one thing clear. In Scotland, 16% of our

:53:20.:53:27.

exports go to the European Union. 65% of our trade is with the rest of

:53:28.:53:33.

the UK. The SNP want to take us out of that single market with the UK

:53:34.:53:36.

and prioritise the European markets. That is your party 's policy. The

:53:37.:53:42.

Conservatives are not coming up with the big answers. Theresa May was

:53:43.:53:49.

talking last night about immigration and encouraging people to come to

:53:50.:53:52.

universities. Well actually, Hanukkah universities are now

:53:53.:53:57.

included in the immigration figures. She has not guaranteed places for

:53:58.:54:01.

European nationals who are here. Our universities are facing a situation

:54:02.:54:05.

where they are going to be hit very hard by the Conservative policies.

:54:06.:54:09.

We will lose foreign students, lose income and they are already

:54:10.:54:17.

struggling. The voters have been listening to what you are insane.

:54:18.:54:20.

We're have added talk about immigration and migration shortly.

:54:21.:54:27.

Let's find out what the voters are saying.

:54:28.:54:35.

I want to introduce you to Rachel. Let's talk about Brexit. What are

:54:36.:54:44.

your concerns? Scotland voted to remain in the EU. Northern Ireland

:54:45.:54:47.

did as well. It is really important we get the best deals. Some of you

:54:48.:54:52.

will stand the up for Scotland and Northern Ireland in the

:54:53.:54:55.

negotiations. When you vote, how will that figure? I will still be

:54:56.:55:03.

voting SNP. Because they will stand up for Scotland. Chris, I want to

:55:04.:55:12.

come. Brexit is one of those issues that is so divisive but will form

:55:13.:55:17.

such an important part. How does it affect your business? I think it

:55:18.:55:21.

affects it in many ways. I am pro-immigration. For me, anything

:55:22.:55:28.

that creates instability and uncertainty creates a vacuum. Where

:55:29.:55:32.

there is a vacuum, people make things up. It is not healthy. One of

:55:33.:55:39.

the issues we talk about with regard to Brexit is free-trade. How does

:55:40.:55:46.

that play out in Scotland? Geographically a little bit further

:55:47.:55:50.

removed from the mainland of Europe. But exports still an important part

:55:51.:55:54.

of the economy? It is a huge part. Going back to the point about

:55:55.:55:57.

manufacturing, we need to manufacture more to help the export

:55:58.:56:03.

balance from GDP perspective. It is certainly uncertain. The future will

:56:04.:56:08.

be interesting. We live in interesting times. Albee, we talked

:56:09.:56:14.

about the effect it has a new. When you hear from Chris saying there is

:56:15.:56:19.

a very different view of what Europe means and what it stands for. That

:56:20.:56:24.

is absolutely valid. A debate is what we are here for. It doesn't

:56:25.:56:30.

affect me in that way. I don't agree that those opportunities are more

:56:31.:56:32.

important than the opportunity within Europe. That is the only area

:56:33.:56:38.

we differ on. It is an area of opportunity within or opportunity

:56:39.:56:47.

out with, I favour within. When you get to the ballot box you will vote

:56:48.:56:52.

in different ways? Yes, for me the shadow economy was one of the

:56:53.:56:54.

reasons I voted. The economic reasons. Huge taxation that has not

:56:55.:57:02.

been taken back from the population. We are subsidising that. I found

:57:03.:57:06.

that personally distasteful. Fundamentally I'm very much

:57:07.:57:08.

pro-immigration. We need immigration. It is a positive

:57:09.:57:14.

political situation to be in. There was no middle ground. It was one or

:57:15.:57:18.

the other. A perfect example of how things are so different, even in the

:57:19.:57:25.

sent down, the same city, the same circumstances people vote very

:57:26.:57:28.

differently. More from those voters later. We will find out what it

:57:29.:57:31.

means on all sorts of different issues.

:57:32.:57:33.

I am here with the politicians. We are going to be talking about

:57:34.:57:36.

migration shortly. Another interesting topic. And how the views

:57:37.:57:41.

in Scotland could be quite different from the rest of the UK when it

:57:42.:57:45.

comes to migration. I'm also going to explain why that person, Robert

:57:46.:57:51.

the Bruce, is over my right shoulder. He is buried in

:57:52.:57:58.

Dunfermline Abbey. We will tell you a little story as well. It is time

:57:59.:58:02.

to get a last brief look at what is happening where you are. We

:58:03.:59:35.

to get a last brief look at what is The risk of a heavy downpour later

:59:36.:59:38.

and top temperatures of 26. We will be back at 1:30pm.

:59:39.:59:49.

Welcome back. You're watching breakfast and were coming to you

:59:50.:59:55.

from Dunfermline. The ancient capital of Scotland. Robert the

:59:56.:00:02.

Bruce is buried here. The place is steeped in history, the home and

:00:03.:00:05.

birthplace of kings and queens and the resting place of Robert the

:00:06.:00:09.

Bruce. We are talking about migration at the moment and we are

:00:10.:00:14.

taking a look at how the issue which was really pertinent in the run-up

:00:15.:00:18.

to the EU referendum, across the UK, but for many different reasons.

:00:19.:00:26.

Perhaps they were relevant in Scotland. Graham Satchel has been

:00:27.:00:30.

looking at how voters in Scotland are addressing the issue and how it

:00:31.:00:34.

plays into their mind ahead of the general election vote in six days.

:00:35.:00:37.

The people who make Glasgow today come from all over the world.

:00:38.:00:40.

I've been living here for over four years.

:00:41.:00:49.

Glasgow styles itself as a friendly, welcoming city.

:00:50.:00:51.

But, like the rest of the UK, it's seen record levels

:00:52.:00:54.

of immigration in the last decade, and for some it's too much.

:00:55.:01:01.

There's an awful lot of asylum seekers coming in, I have to admit.

:01:02.:01:04.

I think every country has to curtail the amount

:01:05.:01:07.

The standard of this area has been rapidly downhill.

:01:08.:01:15.

Economically, I don't know, but for living here,

:01:16.:01:19.

the standard has gone right downhill.

:01:20.:01:20.

That kind of concern about immigration is probably

:01:21.:01:31.

in the end the main reason that England and Wales voted for Brexit.

:01:32.:01:34.

Immigration here is a much more subtle, complicated and nuanced

:01:35.:01:43.

issue than it is in the rest of the UK.

:01:44.:01:45.

After World War II, up until around 2000, Scotland

:01:46.:01:47.

We have more deaths than births in Scotland.

:01:48.:01:51.

The only way the labour force is growing, and has been growing

:01:52.:01:54.

over the last 15 or 20 years, is through positive net migration.

:01:55.:01:58.

This is the Maryhill integration network,

:01:59.:02:01.

and a help session for newly arrived refugees in Glasgow.

:02:02.:02:05.

The Scottish Government has actively encouraged immigration

:02:06.:02:07.

So 40% of the Syrians who have come to the UK, for example,

:02:08.:02:14.

Syrian people, they are very active and they can do

:02:15.:02:22.

So Syrians can help the Scottish people?

:02:23.:02:29.

Many of them have skills and they can do something here.

:02:30.:02:40.

The food we cook here is Punjabi food.

:02:41.:02:43.

Ajmal runs one of the biggest curry houses in Scotland

:02:44.:02:52.

But he says Brexit and new tighter immigration rules from

:02:53.:02:56.

Westminster are already threatening his business.

:02:57.:02:59.

It's now nearly impossible to recruit Indian chefs from abroad.

:03:00.:03:04.

Basically, what we're saying to the rest of the world is,

:03:05.:03:08.

we are closed for business and you are not welcome here.

:03:09.:03:10.

Can migration be managed to suit the needs of business on one side

:03:11.:03:19.

and the worries many have about social cohesion?

:03:20.:03:21.

Getting the balance right will be a challenge,

:03:22.:03:23.

Some of the issues in Graham's report. Let's find out what some of

:03:24.:03:40.

the voters this morning make of those issues. You have been working

:03:41.:03:46.

and living in Scotland 16 years. How important is migration to Scottish

:03:47.:03:50.

society? I think it's very important. Living in a society, I'm

:03:51.:04:01.

working in health and social care, and we face the challenge of an

:04:02.:04:08.

ageing population. Immigration adds to the young and skilled workforce

:04:09.:04:14.

in this country. There was a decline in Scottish population. It adds to

:04:15.:04:19.

the positive image of Scotland, opening up the door to migrants. We

:04:20.:04:27.

are open to cultural diversity, it adds to learning about other

:04:28.:04:30.

country's languages and customs and how to integrate. It also shows that

:04:31.:04:38.

this country cares for the world, for the people who are suffering in

:04:39.:04:41.

this world. It creates a positive image. I think immigration is a very

:04:42.:04:48.

positive thing for the country and I'm very much in favour. It has

:04:49.:04:52.

opened doors for me and my children. There is better education and better

:04:53.:04:56.

health. I think immigration will add to the society was the all aspects,

:04:57.:05:06.

the economy and cultural diversity. You're making the case for all the

:05:07.:05:11.

benefits of migration. Alan, we have discussed whether you think the

:05:12.:05:14.

system needs to be reformed. It's one of the big issues in the

:05:15.:05:17.

election, as well as Brexit. What reform do you think there needs to

:05:18.:05:21.

be to the system? Just before I answer that, I associate my feelings

:05:22.:05:29.

of immigration being a positive thing. The reform I would like to

:05:30.:05:33.

see is that I believe current immigration policy is

:05:34.:05:38.

discriminatory, driven by 274,000 net migration of mainly white people

:05:39.:05:44.

from Europe. It's very difficult for brown people from the Indian

:05:45.:05:48.

subcontinent, black people from the Caribbean and Africa, to come to

:05:49.:05:52.

Britain. I think that's almost racist, it needs fixing and we need

:05:53.:05:56.

to welcome people to Scotland based on their skills, education and

:05:57.:05:59.

abilities, not the colour of their skin. We'll come back to that point.

:06:00.:06:06.

We will speak to Jonathan about the skills issue. You want to see the

:06:07.:06:10.

immigration system based on skills, not anything else, but a need for

:06:11.:06:14.

workers in the country. The country to develop on its own needs to bring

:06:15.:06:19.

in skilled people to develop industries to help those industries

:06:20.:06:22.

and then Scotland will grow by itself. If you bring in people

:06:23.:06:26.

without skills you don't have the ability to train them when you can

:06:27.:06:30.

train your own people. How'd you identify what skills are needed?

:06:31.:06:36.

Scotland has an engineering background, the oil industry,

:06:37.:06:40.

shipyards, IT. There is more we can do, especially if we come out of

:06:41.:06:44.

Brexit. We need to develop industry, even farming. Sheep and cattle,

:06:45.:06:49.

whatever. Skills are required to support all industries. We don't

:06:50.:06:56.

have the work staff to do that and there is a real shortage. You moved

:06:57.:07:01.

here in 2003 from Poland. Your family is here. Have attitudes in

:07:02.:07:08.

Scotland changed to immigration? There has always been a different

:07:09.:07:11.

landscape in Scotland with regards immigration. I have to say we are

:07:12.:07:16.

very lucky here and very proud to live and contribute in Scotland.

:07:17.:07:21.

People in Scotland have noticed that contribution, that positive

:07:22.:07:24.

contribution, that migrants make to the Scottish economy, culture, and

:07:25.:07:31.

socially as well. Therefore it's been very different here than down

:07:32.:07:36.

south. I think it's also due to the fact that our politicians in

:07:37.:07:39.

Scotland have had a very civilised debate about immigration. For a

:07:40.:07:44.

number of years. Especially in the context of Brexit. Post the EU

:07:45.:07:53.

referendum, we haven't noticed an increase in race crime in Scotland

:07:54.:07:56.

that we have noticed down south in the UK. I think we have to thank our

:07:57.:08:02.

politicians for that, across all the main political parties. With the

:08:03.:08:06.

Scottish Government being so progressive and openly talking about

:08:07.:08:10.

positive impact of migration in Scotland, we are obviously very

:08:11.:08:16.

grateful, as migrants, for this. Politicians are listening to that,

:08:17.:08:23.

and we can head back to them now. They are taking diligent notes.

:08:24.:08:28.

Dean, last night we heard Theresa May talking about targeting

:08:29.:08:32.

migration. We have heard that before from the Conservatives, down to the

:08:33.:08:36.

tens of thousands over the next five years, by 2022, over the course of

:08:37.:08:41.

the next Parliament. It was failed to be delivered after the general

:08:42.:08:47.

election of 2010. Why should voters have faith in you and your party and

:08:48.:08:53.

Theresa May in doing this? I think it's across the board, the value of

:08:54.:08:57.

migrants and what they had to the economy in Scotland and across the

:08:58.:09:02.

UK. -- what they have added to the economy. There is a real consensus

:09:03.:09:07.

there. There is a skills shortage in Scotland and we need access to

:09:08.:09:10.

global talent from Europe and elsewhere around the world. Can we

:09:11.:09:16.

talk about your party leaders promise to reduce net migration to

:09:17.:09:21.

the tens of thousands which hasn't been achieved by the Conservatives

:09:22.:09:26.

yet. It wasn't possible within the context of free movement within the

:09:27.:09:29.

European Union. That was one of the key pillars of the EU. Depending on

:09:30.:09:35.

the negotiation with the EU, we can now have more flexibility with where

:09:36.:09:39.

we take migrants from to fill the skills gaps. In terms of Brexit, the

:09:40.:09:43.

key question in this election is who we want at the negotiating table to

:09:44.:09:48.

negotiate the best deal for the UK. Do we want Jeremy Corbyn or Theresa

:09:49.:09:52.

May? But we are talking about migration. We have already spoken

:09:53.:09:58.

about... I think some myth busting needs to go on. First and foremost,

:09:59.:10:02.

only about half of net migration comes from Europe, the other half is

:10:03.:10:06.

from the rest of the world, where we do have controls. The government has

:10:07.:10:12.

failed to make a dent in that. I think Dean started his comments

:10:13.:10:16.

talking about the positive impact of migration and then pivots to the

:10:17.:10:21.

same arguments about what we can get out of migrants. I think that's

:10:22.:10:24.

completely the wrong attitude. We need to have a positive and

:10:25.:10:28.

welcoming attitude. Frankly, we need those skills. We need them in the

:10:29.:10:34.

health service and key industries. You have heard what the voters have

:10:35.:10:39.

said about migration. Scotland is a country built on migration. I don't

:10:40.:10:43.

think there are any of us at this table whose ancestors all come from

:10:44.:10:47.

Scotland. They come from Ireland, Italy, and other countries. We value

:10:48.:10:51.

migrants in this country. The thought of limiting to tens of

:10:52.:10:55.

thousands, that something not popular in Scotland because we need

:10:56.:11:01.

the influx of population. As one of the voters mentioned, the

:11:02.:11:04.

demographic, we will have an older population and we need younger

:11:05.:11:08.

people coming in, foreign students coming to our universities. There is

:11:09.:11:12.

a real fear that the economy and economic growth could be damaged. By

:11:13.:11:19.

this Conservative policy that seems to be aiming for a small sector of

:11:20.:11:22.

the population who don't support immigration. People are still

:11:23.:11:29.

concerned about migration. It was a huge issue ahead of the EU

:11:30.:11:35.

referendum. You are not in, they are concerned, but they are disappointed

:11:36.:11:38.

because they didn't get what they wanted when it Conservatives

:11:39.:11:40.

promised to reduce it to the tens of thousands. Migration has been a good

:11:41.:11:46.

thing. The food and drink sector, farms, universities bringing in

:11:47.:11:50.

skilled people. It's a two-way process. I benefited from freedom of

:11:51.:11:55.

movement and working overseas. One of the young people you are speaking

:11:56.:11:59.

to is sitting higher politics today. That's very brave coming on first

:12:00.:12:03.

and good luck. But I want to see young people have the same

:12:04.:12:06.

opportunities I had. That means a two-way process on migration. It's

:12:07.:12:11.

good for the economy and for young people to give them opportunities.

:12:12.:12:15.

With young people, we have youth unemployment of 12% in Scotland.

:12:16.:12:19.

This is an opportunity that has been recognised by your colleagues in the

:12:20.:12:23.

Scottish Parliament, we have the opportunity to skill up unemployed

:12:24.:12:28.

youth and bring them into the workforce because that's essential

:12:29.:12:32.

for young people. We also need to recognise there have been committees

:12:33.:12:37.

where there have been the consequences of immigration. We need

:12:38.:12:41.

to make sure there is investment, especially in housing, because that

:12:42.:12:44.

is where we have seen in fact. Politicians have not been good at

:12:45.:12:47.

addressing the impact on infrastructure. I would love to talk

:12:48.:12:51.

more, but I'm grateful for you joining us. We are grateful to the

:12:52.:12:55.

voters as well. Thank you all very much for your time. We have been in

:12:56.:13:00.

Dunfermline this morning, the ancient capital of Scotland. Thank

:13:01.:13:05.

goodness the rain has stayed away. We have been speaking to voters and

:13:06.:13:10.

getting their opinions. Good luck in your politics exam this afternoon!

:13:11.:13:16.

It is so appropriate. The Dunfermline and district pipe band

:13:17.:13:18.

has been keeping us company all morning. We hope you have enjoyed

:13:19.:13:25.

our company. Have a good weekend and goodbye.

:13:26.:13:46.

In the countryside, the air is filled with birdsong,

:13:47.:13:51.
