by a deputy chairman of the conservative party over whether or not she paid the correct level of tax on the sale of her council house, back in 2015. angela rayner strongly denies she has done anything wrong. greater manchester police had originally said there would be no inquiry. angela rayner is one of labour boss battles for billable campaigners, but now she faces a police investigation. it relates to when she owned a house in the street in stockport ten years ago. the conservatives claim she may earn tax on the profit she made when selling it and may have broken electoral law by exclaiming this was her main residence when her husband and children were registered a mile away. greater manchester police say they have reassessed information and are looking at is whether any offences have been committed. angela rayner insists this is all a smear. i am confident that i've done absolutely nothing wrong. i have

been very clear on the advice i have received. if the hmrc want that information i will give it to them. if the police want that information and they want me to give them that information i will happily give it. we welcome this investigation because — we welcome this investigation because it will allow our line to be drawn _ because it will allow our line to be drawn in_ because it will allow our line to be drawn in relation to this matter. i am fully— drawn in relation to this matter. i am fully confident that angela ranger— am fully confident that angela ranger has not broken the rules. —— angela _ ranger has not broken the rules. —— angela rayner. it is really a matter for the _ angela rayner. it is really a matter for the police. but angela rayner. it is really a matter for the police-— for the police. but the conservatives - for the police. but the conservatives feel - for the police. but the - conservatives feel differently. it is not acceptable to avoid taxation in the way that may have occurred here. and it is not acceptable to berry henson and ignore the situation, which is of course what angela rayner wants to do. are than that, keir starmersaid angela rayner wants to do. are than that, keir starmer said that this is something he is not even prepared to read a report into. the something he is not even prepared to read a report into.— read a report into. the details of the story are _ read a report into. the details of the story are technical, - read a report into. the details of the story are technical, the - read a report into. the details of. the story are technical, the correct registration of an address several

years ago. the politics are simple, questions of hypocrisy and breaking the law, both of which angela rayner denies. she is one of may propose not best known campaigners and a thorn in the side of the conservatives. now police investigation is likely to mean that you will continue to face questions. let's cross now and speak to our political correspondent. peter, how much of a problem could this cause? angela rayner is a very well—known figure. the conservatives have been banging on the strum quite is a long time now. greater manchester police have said there was no grounds for an investigation, and what has changed is a deputy chair of the conservative party has provided more information. it appears that information. it appears that information is sufficient for greater manchester police to look into whether or not an offence may

have been committed. there are two things here, whether angela rayner owes more tax to the hmrc over the sale of that former council house, and the claim also that she potentially provided inaccurate information when she said that that was her principal residence. i think thatis was her principal residence. i think that is what the police will be looking into, whether it was a breach of election law. this goes back quite a long time. labour are convinced this isjust back quite a long time. labour are convinced this is just a smear and it will come to nothing. angela rayner has said that she has had legal and tax advice which effectively exonerates her. she has faced repeated calls to publish that advice. she says that she has more than happy to hand it over to the authorities. presumably she will centre over to greater manchester police, but she says it will not go into the public domain because it personal information. flit

into the public domain because it personal information.— personal information. of course, this is a distraction _ personal information. of course, this is a distraction for— personal information. of course, this is a distraction for sir- personal information. of course, this is a distraction for sir keir. this is a distraction for sir keir starmer, who would like to focus on other issues, the future of the country being one of them. the labour party — country being one of them. the labour party are _ country being one of them. tue: labour party are well country being one of them. tt;e: labour party are well ahead in the polls and have a general election was held tomorrow they would beat the red hot favourite to be in government and for him to be prime minister. the daily mail is not a labour supporting newspaper but he did an interview in the daily mail today. they are trying to reach out today. they are trying to reach out to voters. i think what sir keir is trying to do is put clear water between him and his predecessor jeremy corbyn, who was much more sceptical about the uk because that nuclear deterrent. keir starmer saying he is committed to it, pointing out it was a labour government in 1945 that set out the nuclear deterrent and was instrumental in founding nato. keir starmer saying it would be the

ambition of a labour government to spend 2.5% of national income on defence. fundamentally, there is not too much to choose between the labour party and conservative party on it. the tories are pointing out that several labour frontbenchers pat getting rid of trident when jeremy corbyn was leader. hello and welcome to sportsday. i'm jane dougall. could we see glasgow stage the commonwealth games again? they've offered after a third city pulled out of bidding to host the event. he's just come back from surgery, but you wouldn't know it — england's danny willett makes

a great start at the masters in augusta. com pletely completely unexpected. sometimes that helps, you start to make a couple of birdies and think i could do it. it was nice to keep chilled out. and heads are turning at aintree on ladies' day! we'll have more on the daring outfits and the runners and riders later in the programme. ten years on from staging the commonwealth games, glasgow have said they would be prepared to step in the host the next ones, if no alternative can be found. it's after singapore joined malaysia in ruling out a bid and follows the australian state of victoria withdrawing last year because of rising costs.

commonwealth games scotland said existing venues would be used from glasgow 2014 and hosting the games would come at no cost to the public purse. chris mclaughlin has more. yes, ten years after glasgow 2014, could this city be ready to step in and save the events in 2026? it is a fascinating story for so many different reasons. what with the event look like? how much would it cost? is there even an appetite for the games in the first place? basically, the commonwealth games federation is struggling to attract a host after victoria pulled out in glasgow has said, yes we could deliver you some kind of streamlined commonwealth games if no one else is interested. but that look like? we think between ten 13 course sports, new athletes' village, it's believed

hotels in the city would be used, and no significant impact on the public purse. £100 million coming from the commonwealth games federation in the first place. it will all be decided at the end of may, but glasgow is discussing the possibility to be involved in a feasibility study. plenty more on this story on the season because my programme. we will be talking to one man who competed successfully in glasgow 2014 to get his thoughts. we will be speaking to the people of glasgow to see if they would welcome back glasgow 2026. golf and bryson de chambeau leads the way on seven—under par as the second round of the masters is just getting under way. there are still some first rounds to complete though after wet and windy weather delayed the start

in augusta yesterday. one man with his feet up for now is danny willett. the 2016 champion will tee—off at 4.30pm on four—under par. it's a bit of a surprise as it is his first tournament since shoulder surgery in september. i feel all ifeel all right, i feel all right, yeah. ifeel all right, yeah. i ifeelall right, yeah. i might ifeel all right, yeah. i might take the next six months off, as well! completely unexpected. sometimes that helps. you make a couple of birdies and you start thinking, i could do it. i was able to keep chilled out. because it was plain tough, it probably made us concentrate that little bit more. rory mcilroy has had a steady start finishing his first day on one—under par. he will tee—off again just before 7.00pm tonight as he goes for the only major to elude him. it's ok, i held together well. it was a little scrappy. the conditions

were tricky. i had a chance for a birdie on 15, missed as shortage —— shortish one and 16 probably turned at three under to a one under in the end. obviously, a lot of golf left to play. five—time winner tiger woods is one of those still to complete his first round. he's also one—under par after 13 holes, so will have 23 to play today as he aims to make the cut for a record 24th time. scottie scheffler has made a great start at six—under par, but won't commit to playing the whole tournament. the american�*s wife is expecting a baby and he says he's ready to leave as soon as he gets the call. maybe i should be more concerned, i don't really know. people have asked us how our preparation is going for the baby. ifeel we are us how our preparation is going for the baby. i feel we are a us how our preparation is going for the baby. ifeel we are a little bit

underprepared, the nursery is not quite issue. we had some issues with the house in the last few weeks. i think we are very unprepared to be parents. as far as her going into labour, i wouldn't say am very concerned, we haven't seen any early signs, but pregnancy is weird, it could happen at any time. she can get hold to me —— of me whenever she needs to. you can follow the masters on the bbc sport website and app. there's live text coverage from augusta and mark chapman is leading the five live team out there providing commentary from 8.00pm this evening. great britain's billiejean king cup tie against france is just getting under way. the winner will secure a place in november's finals in spain. britain reached the final four two years ago, but did not make the final eight last year having lost their qualifier against france. british number one katie boulter is opening the tie,

which is live on the bbc, against diane parry. these are live pictures from france. they are just warming up before they begin. just about to hit the opening shots. that match will be followed by emma raducanu against caroline garcia. you can watch on the red button, the bbc sport website, app and iplayer, alongside live text commentary on the website. it's ladies day at aintree and that means lots of colourful outfits, regardless of the weather. racegoers gathered to show off their fashion sense. thankfully, the weather has stayed dry and many of the female fans have been able to ditch the big coat and show off their outfits. today is known for being one of the more fashionable days at aintree.

if you're looking for a name to pick out in tomorrow's national, what about late night pass? it's not among the favourites, but it's got a great story behind it, with an amateurjockey on board, in what is a real family affair, as mike bushell has been finding out. on a small family farm in warwickshire, they're pinching themselves as they prepare to take on racing's elite in the grand national. and this is a family affair like no other. mum pippa is the owner and raised the horse. son tom is the trainer. and his wife, gina, is thejockey — who's still competing as an amateur. well, it'sjust unbelievable, really, isn't it? you know, to have your son train, your daughter—in—law ride, and a horse you bred — it'sjust, its magic. 0h, there's no doubt gina's the boss. he laughs. we obviously have differences in opinions on certain things, but it helps — you can be open with each other and, you know, say what you really mean, which i think, if you have a professional relationship with somebody else, sometimes you perhaps hold back a little bit.

yeah, we try to switch off in the evenings, i think. i
