"Politics ought to be about policies," says Emily Thornberry when asked about whether Jeremy Corbyn is an electoral liability.

"Are we thinking about the 5% or are we thinking about the 95%? We need to be talking about the policies that look after the many and not the few."

Ms Thornberry takes the same approach as John McDonnell did earlier, attacking Theresa May for refusing to take part in a televised debate ahead of the election.

"What is she afraid of? If he's such a weak leader what is she afraid of?" she asks.

She says Mr Corbyn cares about the sort of things that ordinary people care about and that would be clear in a debate, adding: "Theresa May doesn't get out enough to know what real people's preoccupations are."

How much will this tax policy raise, Robert Peston asks Emily Thornberry,

"I don't know. You'd have to ask John McDonnell about that," she replies.

Emily Thornberry says Labour's tax plan is about asking "those with the broadest shoulders" to pay a bit more.

When it's pointed out that an MP's salary is less than £80,000 - the threshold Labour uses to define the start of those broad shoulders - Ms Thornberry concedes that most parliamentarians won't pay more. 

Those with additional jobs, like ministers, will pay more though, she adds.

Home Secretary Amber Rudd is on Pienaar's Politics. She says "certainly not" when asked if she is among the Cabinet members who, perhaps affectionately, refer to Theresa May as "mummy" behind her back

John Pienaar goes on to say that Mrs May is running the most presidential campaign he can remember, referring to "my candidates" and making the election all about her so far.

Ms Rudd says that she has been involved in a number of elections and she doesn't think it's different to previous elections. Journalists always complain about "presidential campaigns". But the big difference this time, she says, is that there is one overarching "enormous" challenge facing the country and that is Brexit so there is extra focus on the person who will be conducting those negotiations.

Shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry looks bemused at the suggestion that a Labour defeat is inevitable - and says she sees weaknesses in the Conservative case that her party can exploit.

"It's just all about Theresa May and some sort of presidential thing going on," Ms Thornberry goes on.

"We need to be putting out a positive case saying, 'It does not have to be this way and we have ideas to make things better,'" she says.

Right, switching channels to ITV's Peston on Sunday (happy 1st birthday by the way)  former Justice Secretary Michael Gove is following the Conservative line and downplaying their local election success.

"She's absolutely right to be cautious," he says, and "Corbyn is absolutely right" to say Labour can do well in some places.

Earlier this week, Theresa May accused European officials of trying to interfere in the UK general election with "threats" around Brexit.

In his final bout of questioning Andrew Marr asks Jeremy Hunt if she's saying they're trying to damage the Conservatives specifically.

"That must be the presumption and what we're saying is they should not be doing that," the health secretary replies.

"We're saying we don't want that to happen, it shouldn't happen and this must be a decision for the British people."

He is pushed again on what evidence there is. Mr Hunt says the leaks to the German newspaper about Theresa May's dinner with Jean-Claude Juncker last week were designed to undermine her negotiating position.

On the subject of mental health and the Tories' plans to improve care. Labour has said the plans aren't backed up by increased funding, but Mr Hunt insists: "There is a lot of new money going into it."

He says Theresa May has been clear she has an economic mission - to keep the economy strong - but also a social mission to improve care for those suffering with mental health problems.

"We're not prepared to say we would get a deal at any cost," says Jeremy Hunt on the prospect of walking away from Brexit talks with no deal. He says the Brexit issue "overshadows" all other issues such as the NHS. "A strong Theresa May battling for Britain against all those other countries" is the best way to secure a good deal, the health secretary says:  

Andrew Marr quotes a Royal College of Physicians warning about rising numbers of people waiting in hospital unable to be discharged because of pressures in social care.

Jeremy Hunt says an extra £6.5bn a year is being put into the NHS and is mid-flow when Andrew interjects, pointing out that some nurses are apparently resorting to using foodbanks.

Mr Hunt says nurses are paid more than the national average, "but is that enough?"

Answering his own question perhaps, he then says: "Many people would say they should be paid more."

Mr Hunt eventually brings it back to Brexit and the election - and the importance of Theresa May as prime minister - stressing any other outcome on 8 June would be "a disaster for the NHS".

Andrew Marr picks another example of growing waiting times, but Jeremy Hunt thinks this isn't fair.

"They are very, very important standards, but they aren't the only standards."

 According to most measures, things have significantly improved, he says, citing the example of improved cancer survival rates.

"Most people can see there are more doctors, more nurses, more funding than ever before," the health secretary insists.

Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt is now in the hot seat. If I wake up in the middle of the night, Andrew Marr asks, how soon should I be seen?

Within four hours is the target, says Mr Hunt, but we haven't hit that for over two years, he adds.

"That's not acceptable," he goes on, but says there's a plan to improve things.

Demand has gone up hugely, Mr Hunt explains, especially from an ageing population, but he adds: "We intend to get back to that standard."

Coming to the end now, and on the prospects for Labour on 8 June, Mr McDonnell says: "I'm not working on wild hypotheticals. We're fighting for every vote."

There's been a rush of young people voting, he continues, and it will be "a young people's election".

Andrew Marr pushes him to say whether he would quit if Labour is defeated, but can't get any such commitment.

"We're not contemplating any loss. We're going to win," Mr McDonnell insists.
