$:/STARTFEED. The horsemeat scandal spreads to France. It becomes the | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
latest country to clear supermarket shelves of some processed meat | :00:16. | :00:18. | |
products. Government help to stop people | :00:18. | :00:25. | |
having to sell their homes to pay for care in their old age. | :00:25. | :00:31. | |
And the BAFTA goes to... Daniel Day-Lewis. | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
Best Actor for the British star of Lincoln at tonight's awards | :00:36. | :00:41. | |
ceremony. And Manchester United extend their | :00:41. | :00:51. | |
:00:51. | :01:03. | ||
lead at the top of the Premier Good evening. | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
Several supermarket chains in France have been clearing shelves | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
of some Findus meat products today as the scandal over horsemeat | :01:10. | :01:19. | |
contamination spread further. Here, that all processed meat products | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
still available are safe despite the fact that test results on some | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
won't be known until the end of the week. Andy Moore reports. | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
Another day, another supermarket chain clears its shelves, this | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
among several in France voluntarily removing some Findus and own brand | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
products. They include moussaka and shepherd's pie, products that so | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
far having been taken off the shelves in the UK. The Environment | :01:44. | :01:48. | |
Secretary said there was no known risk to human health although | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
testing was still ongoing. This for the moment is a labelling | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
problem. This is an issue of fraud. This is a case of people being sold | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
one thing and getting another. At the moment, we don't have evidence | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
that there is a threat to human health. | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
We know it's a European-wide market, so are there products on British | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
shelves the same as the ones being removed from French shelves? The | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
Department for the Environment is coordinating the British response. | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
The Food Standards Agency working closely with DEFRA says it has no | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
plans to update its list of products that have been withdrawn | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
from sale. Findus here in the UK says it's | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
already withdrawn its beef lasagne range. It says its other products | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
have been tested and it's confident they are clear of contamination. | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
These shoppers in Bradford have lost confidence in processed meat. | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
I don't think they are going to recover very quickly because it's a | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
lot more widespread than people first imagined. It makes you a bit | :02:49. | :02:57. | |
more ware roin what you do eat and you can't trust them -- wary with | :02:57. | :03:05. | |
what you eat. The original source been claimed that many animals are | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
going for slaughter in Romania because there's a new law banning | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
horse and carts on the road. Horsemeat is cheaper than, for | :03:12. | :03:20. | |
example, beef. The other issue is it's far less regulated after BSE. | :03:20. | :03:24. | |
The system was more tightly regulated in terms of identity, | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
testing and locality after that. With horses, that's not the case. | :03:28. | :03:33. | |
Findus in France and Sweden says it will sue its French supplier, | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
Comigel. That supplier in turn says it's been a victim and will be | :03:38. | :03:46. | |
seeking compensation. Let's join our correspondent | :03:46. | :03:50. | |
Christian Fraser who's in Romania, thought to be the source of the | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
outbreak. How is this news being received there? You get the sense | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
at the moment that each party in the story is blaming the other. The | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
French pointing the finger firmly at the Romanians and the Romanians | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
saying they believe the problem lies somewhere in this convoluted | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
supply chain that we know more about. We should find out a little | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
bit more of the Government inquiry at the Agbonlahor ministry tomorrow | :04:13. | :04:19. | |
at 11 o'clock -- agriculture ministry tomorrow at 11 o'clock. | :04:19. | :04:25. | |
The spokesman said they've identified two of the 35 approved | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
abattoirs that has supplied horse. One has practically been cleareded, | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
largely because they only supply horse, and the other is a big | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
industrial plant, where they slaughter cattle and horse and | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
they've not supplied the paperwork to the satisfaction of the vet. | :04:43. | :04:45. | |
Alongside that, they are waiting for paperwork from the authorities | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
in France. When they have all that, they'll be able to make a decision | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
within a few days where the problem may lie. But certainly, they know | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
the implications, the President here saying that if the problem is | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
identified as a Romanian problem, the credibility of the country will | :05:02. | :05:08. | |
be at stake. The export process therefore will be a real problem | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
for Romanians. Thank you very much. | :05:11. | :05:17. | |
Here, Government plans to cap long- term social care contributions to | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
75,000 pounds per person are to be partly funded by freezing the | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
inheritance tax threshold. The Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, says | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
that the plan should help avoid people having to sell their homes | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
to pay for care in their old age. Our Political Correspondent, Ian | :05:31. | :05:38. | |
Watson, reports. Anne's 94-year-old mother suffers | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
from dementia. She's spent the last seven years in care. The round-the- | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
clock care she needs has cost over �200,000 and Peggy's home's had to | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
be sold to pay for it. It can be very, very hard sometimes juggling | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
it. You can't work out how long the money's got to last. That is | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
absolutely impossible. When it starts to disappear fast, which | :05:59. | :06:05. | |
happens, then, you know, you wonder what's at the end of it. | :06:05. | :06:09. | |
So the Government says it will ease people's anxieties by placing a | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
�75,000 cap on social care costs in England. The woshes thing that can | :06:14. | :06:19. | |
happen is -- worst thing that can happen is that at the most | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
vulnerable moment in your life, you lose the thing that you've worked | :06:23. | :06:30. | |
for, saved for, your own house. This isn't straightforward. By the | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
�75,000 cap, will apply for personal care, such as help that | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
washing and clothing, accommodation costs and care homes aren't covered | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
for. The scheme will be funded mainly from changes to pensions and | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
national insurance. The rest will come from inheritance tax. | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
In opposition, George Osborne said the threshold for paying | :06:51. | :06:56. | |
inheritance tax should be raised to �1 million, so now to help to pay | :06:56. | :07:02. | |
for social care costs, from 2015 it will be frozen at �6 50,000 for | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
couples and �3 25 for individuals. For a further two years, that is. | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
The Conservatives and Liberal Democrats are currently slugging it | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
out against each other in a by- election, but tomorrow the | :07:12. | :07:20. | |
coalition's going to say it can still make the political weather by | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
making a long-term solution to care. They can't come into effect until | :07:25. | :07:27. | |
after the next general election. Campaigners are saying the | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
Government should do more to tack a funding crisis in care right now. - | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
- tackle. The Government needs to put more money into social care to | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
extend its reach and improve quality. 830,000 people or so can't | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
get it at the moment on the other hand will go on and that will | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
increase. It's believed up 2010 0,000 people like Anne and Peggy | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
will be helped, but some say the extra support will come too late. | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
Two men have been charged tonight in connection with the death of a | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
police constable in Londonderry. Fill laren olds' car was hit by a | :08:05. | :08:12. | |
4X4. The men aged 23 and 25 will appear before Derry magistrates in | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
the morning -- Philippa. A tax avoidance schemes were turned into | :08:18. | :08:22. | |
an industry by the bank in revelations in a Panorama programme | :08:22. | :08:25. | |
to be broadcast tomorrow night. Barclays announced this weekend | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
it's closing down its Structured Capital Markets department which | :08:29. | :08:35. | |
helps customers avoid paying tax. Richard Bilton reports. | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
Barclays' Structured Capital Markets or SCM, was one of the most | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
profitable parts of the bank which generated huge amounts of money. | :08:47. | :08:51. | |
SCM only employed 100 people but managed to make around �1 billion a | :08:51. | :08:58. | |
year in profit. Martin Taylor is a former Barclays Chief Executive. So | :08:58. | :09:06. | |
SCM, was that there when you were at the bank? Yes, it was. There was | :09:06. | :09:14. | |
business within the investment bank relatively very profitable. What | :09:14. | :09:22. | |
was it for? It was for tax dodging for international business mostly. | :09:22. | :09:28. | |
Tax avoidance? Tax avoidance, yes. SCM grew after Martin Taylor left. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
Tax avoidance isn't illegal and all banks work to lower taxes for their | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
clients, but tax avoidance at SCM was done on a spectacular scale. | :09:38. | :09:46. | |
It was enormous. I mean, it was a very major profit sector for the | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
whole of Barclays. Their office in Canary Wharf was an offshore island | :09:51. | :09:57. | |
completely divorced from the rest of Britain in effect. SCM was a | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
small closed unit, but Panorama's tracked down a former insider. As | :10:02. | :10:11. | |
long as we protected his identity, he agreed to tell us how it worked. | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
The issue with Barclays Capital is that it was turned into an industry | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
within the bank. We said to ourselves at the time, how does a | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
bank get away with this stuff Barclays says when any SCM | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
transaction has tax implications, they make full and explicit | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
exclosure to Her Majesty. Anthony Jenkin also outline his vision for | :10:35. | :10:40. | |
Barclays' future. It's now clear SCM is not part of it. | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
You can see more of that investigation into Barclays on | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
Panorama tomorrow evening at 8.30 on BBC One. | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
The former England footballer, Paul Gascoigne, has been admitted to | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
intensive care in a hospital in America. The 45-year-old had been | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
receiving treatment for alcohol addiction in Arizona when he was | :10:59. | :11:06. | |
taken ill. His former Tottenham team-mate Gary has been bot says he | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
is recovering. -- Gary Mubbott. had a serious reaction to the detox. | :11:12. | :11:21. | |
He was transferred from the clinic to a hospital. He's in recovery and | :11:21. | :11:29. | |
is not in a life-threatening situation. The BAFTA film awards | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
have been on tonight. Two big awards went to the hostage drama | :11:33. | :11:38. | |
Argo which won both Best Director for Ben Affleck and best film. Our | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
arts editor Will Gompertz watched the action on the red carpet and | :11:42. | :11:47. | |
inside the Royal Opera House. This report contains flash photography. | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
In case any of the stars rolling up the red carpet should forget that | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
it was February and it was the BAFTAS, the weather was on cue to | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
remind them. But they are actors and know how to put on a show | :12:01. | :12:06. | |
regardless. It's been a mixed year for British | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
film. Audiences can flock to the cinema and box takings takings are | :12:11. | :12:15. | |
good. UK-based production dropped by 30% which led to fewer British | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
films being made, however. The BAFTAS aren't about stats. They | :12:22. | :12:30. | |
are about stars. And prizes. With prestigious best film award | :12:30. | :12:36. | |
going to... Argo! It's rather well known producer | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
praised Ben Affleck. You are remarkable at what you do. You're | :12:39. | :12:44. | |
smart, you know what you want, but more importantly, you love what you | :12:44. | :12:52. | |
do. Tonight's award winning director. The BAFTA for Best | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
Director goes for his film Argo, Ben Affleck. He dedicated his award | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
to those, like him, who take risks and try new things. This is the | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
second act for me and you have given me that. This industry's | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
given me that and I want to thank you and I'm so grateful and proud. | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
I am President of the United States... | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
Daniel Day-Lewis won Best Actor award for his portrayal ofen | :13:20. | :13:23. | |
Abraham Lincoln and gave another performance tonight. On the chance | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
that I might one day have to speak on such an evening as this, I've | :13:28. | :13:37. | |
stayed in character as myself for the last 55 years. The Best Actress | :13:37. | :13:44. | |
BAFTA went to 85-year-old Emmanuel Rivva for this performance. The | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
British producer Les Miserables fared well picking unfour awards, | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
including best supporting actress for... Anne Hathaway. Next stop the | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
Oscars in two weeks' time to see if there will be a different cast of | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
winners. From the BAFTAS to the sport now. | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
Let's join Lizzie at the BBC Sports centre. | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
Good evening. England are now favourites to twin Six Nations | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
after beating Ireland in Dublin for the first time in ten years. It was | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
an intense but tryless encounter as the weather played a big part in | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
the 12-6 scoreline. Andy Swiss was there. | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
In a doubling debut, they flocked to perhaps the defining day. | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
Ireland and England, the only teams still unbeaten in the Six Nations. | :14:29. | :14:34. | |
Spirits, anything but soggy. Sure enough, the storm clouds were | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
accompanied by a maelstrom of noise. It was billed as a potential | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
decider. The tension sounded like it. England promptly struck first, | :14:44. | :14:48. | |
a penalty from Owen Farrell. In foul conditions though, what | :14:48. | :14:54. | |
followed was rarely pretty and sometimes ugly. Healey's footwork | :14:54. | :14:58. | |
starting an early melee. There were occasional glimpses of style, | :14:58. | :15:04. | |
Ireland with a rare attack. With the ball resembling a bar of soap, | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
they couldn't capitalise. It was left to Farrell to boot England | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
into a half time lead loo. After the break though, the | :15:12. | :15:19. | |
pendulum swung, a sin binning for Haskell, two O'Gara penalties and | :15:20. | :15:25. | |
Ireland were level. A test of character England passed with | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
flying colours. Tuilagi nearly scored. Victory was not to slip | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
through their fingers though. Two more Farrell penalties seeing | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
them home. In tough conditions, England | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
produced the toughest of performances. | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
There is a lot of young players out there who've come to Dublin and | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
played the first time away. You can see the weather out there, the lads | :15:51. | :15:55. | |
are freezing, the subs are absolutely shivering and we've got | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
the win 12-6, so we'll take it. a decisive win for England, they | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
are clear at the top of the Six Nations table and already they make | :16:05. | :16:10. | |
take some catching. Manchester United are on course for | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
a 13th Premier League title after a determined 2-0 victory over Everton | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
in the late kick off, making the most of their City rival's defeat | :16:20. | :16:23. | |
yesterday, United are 12 points clear at the top of the table. Drew | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
salve salve reports. Anyone expecting a weakened Manchester | :16:26. | :16:33. | |
United team was in for a surprise - - Drew Savage. | :16:34. | :16:42. | |
It paid off with this set up for Giggs. Ryan Giggs has now scored a | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
league goal in every single season he's spent at Old Trafford. Osman | :16:48. | :16:57. | |
with this effort. Before half time, van Persie scored. They say you | :16:57. | :17:02. | |
can't buy success, but has Sir Alex Ferguson ever spent a better �22.5 | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
million? Even with a two goal lead, United still wanted a third. | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
Everton's comeback last year arguably cost them the title. | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
Johnny Evans must be wondering Hoy he didn't score. Jelavic did his | :17:14. | :17:20. | |
best to get Everton back in it, but there was no slip back from here | :17:20. | :17:25. | |
and no slip-up from United. The title looks to be theirs to | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
lose. In the early kick off, Villa moved out of the relegation zone | :17:28. | :17:35. | |
with their first home win since November. N'Zogbia's free kick was | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
the winner. England's women beat South Africa | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
by seven wickets at the Cricket World Cup in India to keep alive | :17:42. | :17:52. | |
:17:52. | :17:55. | ||
their hopes of retaining their title. Bowler Schrubshell with this. | :17:55. | :17:57. | |
They must beat New Zealand on Wednesday and hope the results will | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
go their way to reach the final. Tom Daley has defended his ten | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
metre title at the national Championships in his first | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
competition of the year. The Olympic bronze medallist spent the | :18:08. | :18:11. |
