MONDAY: Macron and Le Pen emerge as the victors in the first round of the French Presidential election, but is the final outcome a done deal? We talk to veteran UK MP Dennis Skinner, about his argument that the upcoming General Election is designed to bury an ongoing expenses scandal the governing Conservatives are embroiled in.
