As we've said, Labour is focusing on public sector investment today, and says it can tell us what services would look like after five more years of Conservative rule:

• 5.5 million people will find themselves on NHS waiting lists in England by 2022
• 1.5 million older and vulnerable people will not have their care needs met
• 650,000 children will be "crammed" into primary school classes larger than 30 pupils
• Families will be nearly £450 worse off per child as a result of plans to scrap free school meals for 1.7 million children

In a speech in London later, Jeremy Corbyn will say: "The futures of our NHS and schools are at stake in this election.

"Labour will invest in our people, schools and hospitals. We will cut class sizes, take a million people off the NHS waiting list and ensure people get the care they deserve."

In case you missed it, Jeremy Corbyn appeared on The One Show sofa last night. He was alone - Theresa May, of course, appeared with husband Philip - and covered a wide range of topics from his childhood to his love of jam-making, even bringing a jar to the studio.

On politics, he said: "Did I ever set out in life to become prime minister? No. I set out in life to try and change things and try and bring about greater justice in our society."

Anti-Jeremy Corbyn attack adverts are being used by the Conservatives to win over voters in marginal constituencies.

Norman Lamb says he wants to create an NHS convention, a cross-party approach to finding a long-term solution for the health service.

He accuses the Tories of a "back of the fag packet approach" to social care and says that "demonstrates better than anything" the need for a non-partisan approach.

Mr Lamb is referring to the row that erupted over Theresa May's plans to fund social care which appeared in the Tory manifesto, but were then hastily adjusted - or clarified, in the PM's words - to reassure people there would be a cap on how much they could be expected to pay.

He continues: "At the moment we're just sleepwalking towards the precipice...

"I want an NHS that meets people's needs but there's a cost to that and we have to be honest with people."

Lib Dem health spokesman and former minister under the coalition Norman Lamb sets out his party's plans for the NHS.

Initially, he says, they want to put a penny in the pound on income tax for everyone to raise about £6bn a year.

Longer term, Mr Lamb says he would introduce a dedicated health and care tax - a so-called hypothecated tax - which would be designated as such on people's wage slips.

An independent body would decide the level of that tax, he adds, to take "to-ing and fro-ing" politicians out of it.

"The government at Westminster has not been one that has had any sensitivity to Northern Ireland's issues," says Naomi Long. She says Theresa May has shown "reluctance" to come to Belfast or consider its needs post-Brexit.

"There is a tone deafness in the government as to what Northern Ireland needs," she tells Today.

Ms Long says politicians from Northern Ireland need to do more than just "slipstream behind the Tories and agree with everything they say", and really start to hold the government to account.

The Alliance Party in Northern Ireland is launching its manifesto today.

Leader Naomi Long says wants to move away from Leave and Remain - and orange and green, Loyalist and Republican - and focus the discussion on "practical ways" of addressing the Irish border issue post-Brexit.

On the Alliance Party's prospects on 8 June, she says she "very hopeful".

"We're in serious contention for two Westminster seats at least."

She goes on : "I think there's is a weariness with the orange and green politics... I think on something as serious as Brexit the people of Northern Ireland want someone who'll take a strong, coherent voice to Westminster."

Is media election coverage short-changing or confusing voters in Wales?

Labour folk are playing down the immigration story, saying it's just one discussion paper, one of many for one meeting with Mr Corbyn. They say it was only "live" for 24 hours, meaning it isn’t something they're pursuing.

However, it does give us some idea of what they're looking at and tells us they at least considered ending the current ban on non-EU unskilled Labour.

It’s been banned since 2013 and changing that would be hugely contentious because unskilled migration is probably what worries people the most.

Labour may be keen to talk NHS, but the party is likely to face questions on immigration today too after an internal policy document was leaked to several newspapers.

It suggests Jeremy Corbyn considered removing the ban on unskilled migrants coming to the UK from outside the EU and introducing a visa system for those individuals instead.

Labour says it is one of "a number of discussion papers" that have been produced and "it is not a statement of Labour policy".

But as you'd expect, the leak has provoked some criticism - the Daily Mail says the document "will cause alarm in working class Labour constituencies which voted for Brexit".

Labour is focusing on what it says would be the impact of five more years of Tory rule on schools and hospitals. It is promising to put in the extra resources needed to reverse the damage done and actually improve things - meet lower waiting targets for cancer treatment, for example.

The Tories say none of this would be possible because Labour would fail to secure a decent Brexit deal and the impact of that on the economy would be so profound, so damaging, that none of these promises could be funded.

Wednesday will also see another of the big election TV set pieces - a seven way head-to-head debate.

Neither Theresa May nor Jeremy Corbyn is expected to take part, though, with the Tories represented by Home Secretary Amber Rudd. An as yet unnamed Labour figure will be Mr Corbyn's super sub.

Also taking part will be Liberal Democrat leader Tim Farron, UKIP leader Paul Nuttall, SNP deputy leader Angus Robertson, Green Party co-leader Caroline Lucas and Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood.

The debate will be on BBC1 at 19:30 BST, but we'll also be bringing you live coverage and analysis.

Thanks for joining us for another day of live election coverage with just over a week until polling day. Labour is focusing on public services and a promise to invest where the Conservatives have "starved" them. The Tories hit back with a personal attack on Jeremy Corbyn and his suitability - or - lack of it - to lead Brexit talks.

The co-leader of the Green Party of England and Wales Jonathan Bartley says that divides exist within generations themselves: "You have over a million pensioners in poverty. If you're 16-years-old you're earning a minimum wage of just over £4.00 an hour. If you're older you might be getting £7.00 an hour.

"But the question we fundamentally have to ask is who the economy is for? There is enough money to not have this generational divide at all."

UKIP's David Curtin says that he does not want to use the word "divide" in the discussion, but concentrate instead on different needs: "Certainly there are different needs between the older generation and the younger generation. But what I think is the main issue... what everybody thinks about, is the skills gap.

"We certainly haven't been training young people with the skills that they need - particularly technical skills - and we need to do that."

BBC Wales political reporter James Williams gives his take following the five-party clash.

Writing in The Times, external, YouGov's Stephan Shakespeare explains its constituency-by-constituency election model which the paper reports as showing the Tories' lead has narrowed.

He says its something the pollsters tried in the EU referendum campaign and it consistently put Leave ahead.

It involves every constituency, key voter types, and looks at behaviour from the 2015 and EU votes, along with 7,000 daily voter interviews.

He says the "midpoints" suggest a hung parliament at this moment, but with "leeway" either side.

There is "churn" of the parties winning and losing seats on "all fronts" and that today's take is just a "snapshot" from the last week, according to YouGov.
