Tonight at ten, under scrutiny, News International and its dealings | :00:06. | :00:10. | |
with senior ministers. At the Leveson Inquiry, James | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
Murdoch reveals the extent of his company's contact with the | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
Government, during the bid to take over BSkyB. | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
Do you think it is appropriate Mr Murdoch that here you are getting | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
confidential information as to what is going on at a high level in | :00:25. | :00:34. | |
Government? I think - I think - what I was | :00:34. | :00:37. | |
concerned with here was the substance of what was being | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
communicated. Ted Culture Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, | :00:41. | :00:45. | |
faces calls to resign. He is accused of secretly back the | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
Murdoch bid. I am confident when I present my | :00:48. | :00:54. | |
evidence the public will see that I have behaved with integrity and | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
scrupulous objectivity throughout the process. | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
Number Ten says the Prime Minister has full confidence in Mr Hunt. | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
At the inquest into the death of a MI6 officer, police say they are | :01:05. | :01:10. | |
convinced someone else was involved. Five years after the disappearance | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
of Madeleine McCann, police say they have the best opportunity so | :01:13. | :01:21. | |
far of solving the mystery. make a difference and of course, we | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
are here to try and bring closure for the family. | :01:23. | :01:29. | |
Hundreds of London families could be uprooted, one council blames the | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
Government's new benefits cap. This could be the most dramatic | :01:33. | :01:42. | |

Football Association's punishment Good evening. | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
The Culture Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, is facing calls to resign after | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
being accused of unacceptable conduct during the News Corporation | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
bid to take over BSkyB. The allegation was made following | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
evidence at the Leveson Inquiry where James Murdoch was asked about | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
his company's relationship with senior politicians. Tonight, Mr | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
Hunt insisted he had been scrupulously fair as Robert Peston | :02:38. | :02:48. | |
:02:48. | :02:54. | ||
One of the of the most dramatic days so far at the Leveson Inquiry. | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
James Murdoch, son of Rupert, gave evidence. I swear by all mighty god | :02:59. | :03:04. | |
that the evidence I shall give shall be the whole whole truth and | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
nothing but the truth. There were extraordinary | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
disclosures about how the Murdoch's News Corporation tried to win | :03:14. | :03:20. | |
approval to control all of British Sky Broadcasting. Do you think that | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
it is appropriate, Mr Murdoch, that here you are getting confidential | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
information information as to what's going on at a high level in | :03:27. | :03:36. | |
Government? concerned with here was the | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
substance of of what was being communicated, not necessarily the | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
channel by which it was communicated. | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
off that Mr Hunt would make an announcement the following day | :03:48. | :03:56. | |
about how a lengthy review of the take-over could be avoided. | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
, ""managed to get some info on the plans for tomorrow although | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
absolutely illegal." What do you make of that? I thought it was a | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
joke. I think the greater than and the explamation point there, a wink, | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
it is a joke. It is about News Corporation | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
attempt in 2010 and 2011 to buy all of British Sky Broadcasting. It was | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
the great prize sought by James Murdoch who was the boss of News | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
International, News Corporation's UK newspaper operations. It was the | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
Culture Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, who had the power to approve or block | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
the deal. And this News Corporation executive, Frederic Michel, in | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
charge of political lobbying in Europe, was the go between between | :04:38. | :04:44. | |
Mr Murdoch and Mr Hunt's department. The Royal Courts of Justice, today | :04:44. | :04:48. | |
of all days, it was appropriate that the Leveson Inquiry into media | :04:48. | :04:54. | |
standards took place here because the big question was whether Jeremy | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
Hunt acted in the way that he should have done as an impartial | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
judge in deciding whether News Corporation should have been | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
allowed to buy all of Sky. Before Mr Hunt took that formal | :05:05. | :05:07. | |
responsibility, Frederic Michel told James Murdoch in an e-mail | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
that he had a call from Mr Hunt's adviser who believed the UK | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
Government would be supportive through the process. Then in | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
January, when Mr Hunt was in charge, Mr Michel said the culture | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
department's view was it was almost aim over for the opposition to the | :05:24. | :05:30. | |
Jeremy Hunt believed we are in a good place tonight. | :05:30. | :05:35. | |
Now we know, he was providing advice, guidance and privileged | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
access to News Corporation. He was being a back channel for the | :05:39. | :05:43. | |
Murdochs. He cannot stay in his post. And if he refuses to resign, | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
the Prime Minister must show leadership and fire him. | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
Tonight I have written to Lord Justice Leveson and asked if he | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
will bring forward my appearance to his inquiry and I'm confident when | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
I present my evidence, the public will see that I have behaved with | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
absolute integrity and scrupulous objectivity. | :06:03. | :06:13. | |
:06:13. | :06:13. | ||
In the sensitive period, News Corporation lie liaised with Adam | :06:13. | :06:22. | |
Smith. Mr Smith and Mr Hunt face a perilous walk to stay in Government. | :06:22. | :06:29. | |
Let's join Nick Robinson. Nick, where do you think today's events | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
leave the Culture Secretary? scandal that has claimed let's | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
remember the Prime Minister's Director of Communications, Andy | :06:37. | :06:41. | |
Coulson, the career of the Head of News international, Rebekah Brooks, | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
the reputation and billions of pounds of the Murdoch's money and | :06:44. | :06:49. | |
of course, the future of the News of the World. Now the case against | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
Jeremy Hunt is very clear, indeed. That while publicly he said "this | :06:54. | :07:01. | |
is an �8 billion bid and I must deal with it independently, in | :07:01. | :07:08. | |
private people in his office were playing footsy with the Murdoch | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
empire and telling them things they wanted to know. There are countless | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
examples of where this e-mail traffic suggests that News Corp | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
knew things would be announced the next day, before Parliament, before | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
the markets and before anyone else. The case for the defence for Jeremy | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
Hunt is this - his adviser was right to liaise with an interested | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
party in an important business process. That was signed off and | :07:33. | :07:38. | |
approved by the top official in the Department of Culture and crucially, | :07:38. | :07:43. | |
that it had no impact on the outcome, on the process, on the bid | :07:43. | :07:48. | |
itself. Finally, that some of that evidence today was presented by ap | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
man who told his boss, James Murdoch, that he had been talking | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
to JH or Jeremy or Jeremy Hunt and yet has said on oath to the Leveson | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
Inquiry he did no such thing. The truth is Mr Hunt hunt would be rash | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
indeed to think that he is out of that he is staying in his job and | :08:07. | :08:10. | |
for the moment, and let's stress for the moment, so too is the | :08:10. | :08:19. | |
occupant of Number Ten. The detective in charge of the | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
inquiry into the death of the MI6 officer Gareth Williams has told an | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
inquest she believes another person was involved. Mr Williams' body was | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
found in a locked holdall in his flat in central London in 2010. The | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
court also heard that traces of unidentified DNA were found on the | :08:32. | :08:42. | |
:08:42. | :08:43. | ||
Footage from inside Gareth Williams' flat taken by police | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
after they found his body in August 2010. Released today it shows a red | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
woman's wig hung on a chair in one room. Phones and computer equipment | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
were scattered on a table. Elsewhere, was a newspaper story | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
which had been cut out, looking at people's regrets before they died. | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
In a spare room, where bags and boxes containing �20,000 of women's | :09:05. | :09:11. | |
clothing. One pair of shoes cost �1,000. Gareth Williams was a | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
brilliant mathematician who worked for the communications intelligence | :09:15. | :09:23. | |
agency, GCHQ before being seconded to MI6 in London. Police computer | :09:23. | :09:25. | |
modelling shows the location of the upper bathroom where a red sports | :09:25. | :09:31. | |
bag was found in the bathtub. Police said Gareth Williams' naked | :09:31. | :09:34. | |
body was inside the bag in a foetal Football Association. There was no | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
sign he had struggled to get out. Underneath him, in the bag, was a | :09:38. | :09:43. | |
set of skis for the lock -- keys for the lock, but the bag's zips | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
had been padlocked together on the outside. Police say they found | :09:47. | :09:53. | |
traces of someone else's DNA on the zip and lock, but they don't know | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
whose. This afternoon the coroner, Dr Fiona Wilcox went so far as | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
taking hold of a replica sports bag to see how difficult it would be to | :10:04. | :10:07. | |
manipulate and lock it from the inside and the police officer in | :10:07. | :10:17. | |
:10:17. | :10:18. | ||
charge of the investigation today Police also released new CCTV | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
pictures of him shopping the day before he died. There is no sign, | :10:21. | :10:27. | |
they say, he was being followed. One of Gareth Williams's oldest | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
friends, Sian Lloyd Jones told the inquest she did not think he | :10:30. | :10:34. | |
dressed up in women's clothes and thought they were gifts. The coming | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
days will see further forensic evidence and testimony from former | :10:39. | :10:45. | |
colleagues in the intelligence The Government's new cap on | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
benefits means that one council in London can no longer afford to | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
provide social housing for some of its poorest residents. That's the | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
case being made by Newham Council in East London which says it's | :10:55. | :11:05. | |
trying to find homes for hundreds council is playing politics as Mark | :11:05. | :11:11. | |
Easton reports. Are Government housing policies forcing thousands | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
of families to pack up and move out of the capital? | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
Amid accusations of social cleansing, it emerged today that | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
Newham Council is one among a number of London boroughs look to | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
go re-house residents hundreds of miles away because they say soaring | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
rents and a cap on housing benefit mean they can't afford to keep them | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
in the city. We have approached lots and lots of housing | :11:36. | :11:42. | |
associations across the country because the truth is that there are | :11:42. | :11:44. | |
few affordable properties here for people on on benefit because of | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
Government changes. Squeeze on welfare payments is | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
seeking home seekers from Central London boroughs move to areas like | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
Newham putting pressure on a borough where Olympic regeneration | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
is said to be pushing up rents. The Government insists that by making | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
essential cuts to a housing benefit bill that's topped �20 billion, | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
rents are being forced down and there is no need for councils to | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
uproot families. Newham need to think again. They need to stop | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
frightening tenants and top publishing the press releases. | :12:19. | :12:26. | |
limit on how much rent the State will fund from over �1,000 a month | :12:26. | :12:32. | |
to a one bed home to over �1700 for a four bed property. In Newham, | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
rents in the borough are advertised between �1800 and �1500 a month, | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
apparently within the cap. Critics say it is not that simple. | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
The evidence is that private rents here in Newham are rising faster | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
than inflation and faster than local wages. Demand massively | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
outstrips supply for affordable homes and even if there are | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
properties that fall below the housing benefit cap, that doesn't | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
mean that landlords will be prepared to offer them to welfare | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
claimants. In another London borough, it is a | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
similar story. Jason Paul is in temporary accommodation in Waltham | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
Forest and received a letter from his council suggesting he move with | :13:15. | :13:23. | |
his teenage daughter to Walsall I've lived in London all my life. | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
How can they ask me, move me 148 miles away from where I come from, | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
where all of my family is, everyone I know? Put me somewhere where I am | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
isolated? With a chronic shortage of affordable homes in London, the | :13:38. | :13:41. | |
Government is hoping to kick-start a massive building programme. But | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
many experts warned that too few houses and a squeeze on welfare | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
will force thousands of families out of the capital. | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
The level of government borrowing has fallen by nearly �11 billion | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
over the last financial year, despite an unexpected rise last | :14:00. | :14:08. | |
month. It borrowed a total �156 million, down from 147. GDP figures | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
are expected to show that the UK economy has grown, but only | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
marginally in the first quarter of this year. | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
Labour's Ed Miliband has been defending his deal of late -- style | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
of leadership and his refusal to reverse cuts in government spending. | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
He admitted he had a long way to go before people saw him as a | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
potential prime minister, but insisted that Labour had the | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
opportunity now to be heard. He was speaking to Nick Robinson in the | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
second of our series of interviews with party leaders during the local | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
election campaigns. It is not hard to see why Ed | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
Miliband might be so excited. The few weeks ago, many were writing | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
him off. Now some are beginning to wonder whether he might just be our | :14:53. | :14:57. | |
next Prime Minister. He says he has learned to ignore the ups and downs. | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
On a visit to Reading College, he told me that he knew he still had a | :15:01. | :15:06. | |
long way to go. That they ask you what I call the cereal packet | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
question. Complete the following sentence. Ed Miliband should be | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
Prime Minister because... He will make this country fairer and more | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
just. Above all, make our economy work for working people and not | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
just the few at the top. Before elections next week, he is | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
highlighting what Labour could do without spending more money, like, | :15:26. | :15:34. | |
he claims, reversing the planned freeze in pensioner tax allowance. | :15:34. | :15:40. | |
Do you want me to answer that? Jenny wants to talk to you. Your | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
daughter? How are you? It is Ed Miliband. These two pensioners are | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
hand-picked Labour voters. I asked him if he was ready to tell the | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
public anything difficult that they don't already want to know? Lots of | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
people want us to promise now that we will reverse the cuts the | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
Government has made. We cannot make that promise now. Why? Because we | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
can only make promises we can afford. That is a fair enough thing | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
to say. Let's have an example, what are you not going to reverse? | :16:11. | :16:18. | |
tell you at the election what we can or cannot. Is there one example | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
where we will say, never? Not one day if we can afford it? We are not | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
doing it? That is something we have to talk about at the election. | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
Miliband believes that voters have had enough of politicians and their | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
promises. It makes him hard to be exciting. Have you got the courage | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
of your convictions? Do say the Government was wrong to cut taxes | :16:38. | :16:43. | |
for the rich. Why don't you now pledged to put them up? For the | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
same reason I am not going to make but the promises I can't keep. | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
Let's see where we are at the election. There is something about | :16:49. | :16:55. | |
me as a person, methodical, rigorous, not making promises I | :16:55. | :17:02. | |
cannot keep. Talking about the big Isn't the danger of that that it is | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
not very exciting? People see the French presidential candidate | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
saying, tax the rich, it is moral. They see Ed Miliband saying, I | :17:09. | :17:13. | |
can't tell you that? I'm saying if there was an election tomorrow we | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
would be restoring a 50 pence tax rate. The Labour leader reckons he | :17:18. | :17:23. | |
has his moment of opportunity. But he is still dogged by one problem. | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
Which one is he? Can we get a photograph with David? Hello, Ed | :17:28. | :17:35. | |
Miliband. Ed Miliband! Someone said, hello, David. You have been in the | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
job for two years, shouldn't they know which brother you are? These | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
things happen, it happens to both of us. If Ed Miliband is to head to | :17:46. | :17:49. | |
Number Ten, this is the year he much make a clear impression on the | :17:49. | :17:59. | |

Messi has nested! The Messi mess that cost Barcelona a place in the | :18:06. | :18:13. | |
Champions' League final. -- missed Now, the man leading the British | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
five years ago says that this is the best opportunity so far of | :18:20. | :18:23. | |
solving the mystery of her disappearance. Detective Chief | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
Inspector Andy Redwood has spoken for the first time about his review | :18:26. | :18:30. | |
of the case, sifting through some 40,000 pieces of information and | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
hoping to find out exactly what happened to the three-year-old | :18:34. | :18:44. | |
Next week, Madeleine McCann will have been missing for five years. | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
The facts have not changed. She went to bed in this holiday | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
apartment. Her parents say when they went to check on her, she was | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
gone. Now a new police team is searching for her. And it is | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
British. This is the first time the lead investigator has spoken | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
publicly. We are here in terms of seeking to bring closer to this | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
case. That would be the ultimate objective and is our ultimate | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
objective. What does that mean? Closure means establishing what | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
happened to Madeleine McCann. Solving it? Of course. Her parents, | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
who continue to campaign for missing people, have wanted a | :19:21. | :19:29. | |
review for years. Knowing that the police actually reviewing | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
everything, it is a huge step. there is a huge problem. Only the | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
Portuguese police can reopen the case. In Portugal, public opinion | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
is less supportive of the family. How do you feel? Four months after | :19:44. | :19:54. | |
:19:54. | :19:54. | ||
their daughter disappeared, they were made arguidos, or suspect. It | :19:54. | :19:59. | |
was later ruled they had no case to answer. The detective that ran the | :19:59. | :20:04. | |
first months of the case has left the force and now makes his living | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
writing and broadcasting his views on the case, that she died in the | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
apartment. Are you comfortable with making money out of a missing girl | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
and a case you failed to solve? Translation when I left the police | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
force, it was to write a book to clear my name. Kate and Gerry | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
McCann are now suing Goncalo Amaral. But the lawyer says that the book | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
has had an effect, public opinion has hardened against the McCann's. | :20:32. | :20:37. | |
Everyone believes that I am defending my father and mother that | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
killed their daughter and went free from the courts. This sensitive | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
situation in Portugal makes the work of the British police team | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
complicated. Do you think this case will be sold one day? I really, | :20:50. | :20:53. | |
really hope we can make a difference. -- solved. We are here | :20:53. | :21:00. | |
to bring closer for the family. of season, Praia da Luz is cold and | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
empty. This place will forever be associated with a lost little girl. | :21:04. | :21:10. | |
It now falls to the British to succeed where the Portuguese have | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
failed and solve the mystery of Madeleine McCann. | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
You can see that full report on BBC Panorama, it is called Madeleine: | :21:19. | :21:27. | |
The Last Hope? And it is tomorrow night on BBC One at 7:30pm. Muslims | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
in European countries who openly show their faith suffer widespread | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
discrimination according to Amnesty International. In particular, it | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
says that Muslims face exclusion from jobs and education for wearing | :21:38. | :21:42. | |
traditional forms of dress. The report comes two days after the | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
French far-right, which campaigns against immigration, enjoyed record | :21:47. | :21:56. | |
support in the presidential Like the majority of Europeans, the | :21:56. | :21:59. | |
day-to-day concerns of France's 6 million Muslims are to do with | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
making ends meet. That is harder if you don't have a job. A major | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
report from Amnesty International on Muslims highlights | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
discrimination in employment, which it says is particularly bad for | :22:12. | :22:21. | |
Muslim women. Chamus Larisse is a nurse. She says since deciding to | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
wear a headscarf, or hijab, she only gets contract work. It's | :22:25. | :22:30. | |
against French door to where religious symbols in state | :22:30. | :22:40. | |
:22:40. | :22:44. | ||
institutions. Her since I wear a headscarf, the feeling has grown. | :22:44. | :22:52. | |
It is not fair and I feel to be a second-class citizen. This woman | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
works for a private company, which means she is legally allowed to | :22:56. | :23:00. | |
wear a headscarf. She wants to remain anonymous because she is | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
fighting the discrimination she says she experiences. I am here, | :23:04. | :23:08. | |
like any French citizen. I don't have to change my name, I don't | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
have to change my religion. I am French, we are here. We will stay | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
here. We don't have to accept this injustice. The popularity of the | :23:18. | :23:21. | |
far right has transformed the political landscape. What it means | :23:21. | :23:27. | |
to be French and how minorities are reflected is now a central debate. | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
If being a Muslim it means you are less likely to get a job or | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
progress in your career, if you have won, then it is in these | :23:34. | :23:40. | |
places, the mainly Muslim banlieues of France's cities where it is felt | :23:40. | :23:48. | |
the most. The state acknowledges that social deprivation and | :23:48. | :23:53. | |
opportunities can affect jobs. But they do not accept discrimination | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
on the grounds of religious relief. -- believe. I don't think the fact | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
they don't have access to the jobs market is linked to their religious | :24:00. | :24:08. | |
face. -- faith. You have people from French stock that live in semi | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
rural areas and that complain about the same things. People who are | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
from Caribbean descent, not Muslims. France prides itself on its secular | :24:17. | :24:22. | |
ideals. But Amnesty's report underlines a challenge facing | :24:22. | :24:32. | |

More than �500,000 has been raised for charity following the death of | :24:33. | :24:36. | |
30-year-old Claire Squires in the London Marathon. She had hoped to | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
raise �500 for the Samaritans by running the marathon for the second | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
time. She collapsed in the final stages. Today, her family said they | :24:44. | :24:49. | |
were deeply moved by the public support. It is just overwhelming. | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
They just cannot believe the generosity of the people and what | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
she has actually achieved. Something good has unfortunately | :24:57. | :25:04. | |
come out of something bad, really. James Birrell, the brother-in-law | :25:04. | :25:07. | |
of Claire Squires. It has been a memorable night for | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
Chelsea in their Champions League semi-final against Barcelona. An | :25:11. | :25:14. | |
early sending-off, Captain John Terry, meant that they looked in | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
deep trouble before a remarkable fightback in the second half. Let's | :25:18. | :25:23. | |
join Dan Roan at the Nou Camp. Chelsea have struggled domestically, | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
but they have shone in Europe. Having won the first leg 1-0, they | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
knew a draw would be enough. That is exactly what they got. | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
When you are widely to be considered to be the best club side | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
in a generation, the fans might expect to turn up and win. But | :25:39. | :25:44. | |
Barcelona have seemed a little more human of late. Despite their team | :25:44. | :25:47. | |
facing the ultimate challenge, these supporters sensed that maybe, | :25:47. | :25:51. | |
just maybe, Chelsea had the chance. The English club knew it was a | :25:51. | :25:59. | |
night to stand up and be counted. But Barcelona's early pressure soon | :25:59. | :26:05. | |
told. Busquets set that high level. Discipline would be key, but their | :26:05. | :26:10. | |
captain showed none. John Terry's moment of madness cost him and his | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
team dear. Barcelona took advantage immediately. Iniesta was clinical. | :26:15. | :26:20. | |
The hosts, with the lead. But what appeared gain over was soon game on. | :26:20. | :26:27. | |
Ramires, with a coveted away goal. At this point, Chelsea were going | :26:27. | :26:33. | |
through. Barcelona responded. Cesc Fabregas got a penalty from Didier | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
Drogba's challenge. An unexpected twist, Messi missing. The Nou Camp | :26:40. | :26:45. | |
was in shock. Somehow, Chelsea were hanging on. Messi again, hitting | :26:45. | :26:52. | |
the would work. Barcelona were getting desperate. They have left | :26:52. | :26:55. | |
themselves open, Fernando Torres finally proving his worth. The | :26:55. | :26:58. | |
Spanish striker, scoring the equaliser and breaking the hearts | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
of his countrymen. Chelsea's unlikely passage to the Champions' | :27:02. | :27:09. | |
League final was complete. They did it with 10 men, with an interim | :27:09. | :27:13. | |
manager and a much-maligned striker. A quite remarkable heroic defence | :27:13. | :27:17. | |
by Chelsea. They have the chance for European glory next month. To | :27:17. | :27:25. |
