Emily Thornberry says Labour would reverse the changes to pensions affecting the Waspi women.

"Whilst of course the age of retirement needs to be equal, it's not fair to do it as quickly as they have done," she says, adding that while she can't recall the exact figures, the reversal has been fully costed.

Amber Rudd says to fully reverse the changes would cost £77bn, adding: "This would once again be dipping into the magic money tree."

The home secretary does say she's "really sorry to hear that" Woman's Hour listeners feel wounded by the policy, but says: "We have had to make difficult decisions."

Lib Dem Jo Swinson agrees it would be "a very expensive policy to reverse" and says "there are a lot of questions about the costings in the Labour manifesto".

She suggests all parties should work together to see if some "additional transition support can be found" for the woman affected.

Paul Nuttall says there is no pressure for him to step down as UKIP leader if his party doesn't win any MPs.

"I've only been leader for six months," he tells LBC's Nick Ferrari, adding that Nigel Farage wasn't in Parliament and he was leader of UKIP.

While he would "prefer UKIP to have MPs", he argues that the party is still strong.

He predicts that in Thursday's general election "we'll get over the line in a number of seats, but our vote share will go down".

He adds that when UKIP was at its "most influential, we didn't have an MP" and that resulted in the referendum on leaving the EU.

The next question concerns "Waspi women" named for the campaign group Women Against State Pension Inequality.

During the election campaign, politicians have been keen to pledge support for the millions of women born in the 1950s who have been angered by rises in the age at which they qualify for a state pension.

That effort goes back decades, so to help understand the issue here is a little history.

UKIP leader Paul Nuttall has refused to rule out the possibility of internment for suspected terrorists or terrorist sympathisers.

He tells LBC's Nick Ferrari he would not take anything off the table, adding: "I would do anything to keep people safe."

He says anyone who is found "to be a clear and present danger to the British people" should have their passports revoked.

Defending his party's policy to ban the burka, he says he thinks any garment that covers the face is "a sign of female oppression".

Asked if this would include nuns, he says "no-one is talking about covering their hair".

"If you go on to the pavement, you should be prepared to show your face," Mr Nuttall adds, arguing that if he walked into a bank, he wouldn't be allowed to wear a balaclava or a crash helmet.

Also on the Woman's Hour panel is UKIP MEP Margot Parker, who says Theresa May "is accountable"for cuts in police numbers during her time as home secretary.

"We need to fund at least 20,000 more police officers," she says - echoing what her party leader, Paul Nuttall, has just told LBC.

For the SNP, Kirsty Blackman says the Scottish government "protected police numbers over the last decade [and] crime is at its lowest level for 40 years as a result".

The Woman's Hour debate with representatives of five parties gets under way with a question about security and the London terrorist attack.

Home Secretary Amber Rudd says she wants to "challenge" the suggestion that police cuts have increased the risk of terrorist attacks.

Her Labour shadow, Diane Abbott, was due to take part but the party says she has been taken ill.

In her place is shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry, who says: "The fact is we've had a huge cut in the police."

She alleges that Theresa May would have cut them further if former Chancellor George Osborne had not stopped her.

For the Liberal Democrats, Jo Swinson says the idea that Mrs May "could not stand up to Cameron and Osborne" would not bode well for Brexit negotiations, if true.

Making it clear that "Islamist extremism" is to blame for the attacks in London and Manchester will help "sort out" terrorism, UKIP leader Paul Nuttall tells LBC.

"I do worry that if we're not realistic about what the problem is, what happened in London and in Manchester could become common place," he says.

"It's Islamist extremism - and now we've begun to name it we can sort this out." He took the same tack in the seven-way leaders' debate last week, accusing other politicians of dodging around the issue.

Mr Nuttall stresses that "we need to get the Muslim community on side here", adding that there's "obviously a break down in trust, there needs to be more integration".

The UKIP leader also calls for the govenment to reverse the cuts to police numbers (nearly 20,000), to put 4,000 more people into the border force and 7,000 more prison officers. He says "radicalisation is rife in prisons".

For Theresa May this will be the busiest day of campaigning so far. After an early stop at a bakery in blustery Fleetwood, Lancashire (where she chatted to a handful of Tory activists around a table and inspected some Chorley cakes) it was back onto the bus for bacon sandwiches and the drive to Wales.

On this final furlong of the election, today’s campaigning will take the Conservative convoy from the north west of England to the South East with several stops in between, snaking through Labour-held seats the Tories are confident of capturing.

This bus has spent much of its time in the north of England visiting constituencies a Tory prime minister has not campaigned in for years.

Last night, Theresa May held a rally for supporters in Bradford South, a seat with a Labour majority of 6,500. The Conservatives last won there in 1918. But a century later they think it’s in reach, not least because UKIP won 9,000 votes there in 2015. If the Tories can scoop up most of those votes this time Bradford South could go blue. The same is true in dozens of seats across the north of England and Midlands.

Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood wishes the Today programme "bore da" and discusses her party's emphasis on Brexit in the general election campaign.

Plaid is campaigning in defence of jobs which rely "on our tariff-free access to the single market", especially in the agricultural sector, and to protect communities who have benefited from EU funding, she says.

People in Wales are "told we're so weak and poor we can never become an independent country", she claims, but support such as EU funding allows Wales to "stand on our own two feet".

Ms Wood is asked if there is a contradiction there.

"We know that we don't stand on our own two feet at the moment," she argues. "We need to get to that point."

The Plaid Cymru leader, who represents the Rhondda in the Welsh Assembly, decided against standing in the constituency in the general election. She says she is aiming to lead Plaid to be the largest party in the Welsh Assembly in 2021.

Boris Johnson has defended the government's record on armed police, telling Today that Mr Khan commissioned a report by Labour peer Lord Harris into how well the capital would cope with a major terror attack, which concluded that London had enough armed officers.

In a press release about the report, external in October 2016, the London mayor's office said: "Lord Toby Harris says he would not at present recommend any further increase in the number of armed officers beyond the current planned uplift, of 600, given the resources available and the essential need to preserve our model of policing by consent."

Mr Johnson added: "It is up to the mayor of London, if he chooses, to spend more on police."

Commenting further on the row between Donald Trump and the London mayor, Boris Johnson says Sadiq Khan was "entirely right" to reassure the public about armed officers on the street.

However, the foreign secretary declines to get involved in an argument between the two, saying they are "perfectly able to stick up for themselves, if I know them both".

Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson is on Today, repeating his argument that Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn "boasts about" opposing anti-terrorism legislation.

Reminded that he opposed 90-day detention of terror suspects in Parliament in 2005, he says that "of course there are [measures] that I have not supported myself" - but "Jeremy Corbyn has opposed every single one".

Mr Johnson accuses Mr Corbyn of being opposed to shoot-to-kill tactics "that have saved people's lives" - although presenter Mishal Husain steps in to question that.

She reads out Mr Corbyn's remarks following the London attack in which he said he supports the "full authority for the police to use whatever force as is necessary".

Boris Johnson says the offer of a state visit has been made to Donald Trump "and I see no reason to rescind it".

London Mayor Sadiq Khan - currently involved in a war of words with Mr Trump - says he's against the US president coming to the UK.
