This is BBC World News Today with me, Tim Willcox. A fifth day of | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
shelling of Homs, the heaviest bombardment yet to. | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
Syrian opposition activists say at least 40 people have been killed as | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
government guns continued to pound the city. It is not clear what | :00:29. | :00:33. | |
exactly the Syrian army is targeting. But civilians are | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
bearing the brunt, and most of them are inside, just as we are. | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
brooch in the latest endgame? Greek political leaders meet to try | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
and ratify a tough new austerity measures. | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
Violent protests in the Maldives after the president is forced to | :00:51. | :00:57. | |

this a provocation? Argentina says it will make a | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
formal complaint to the UN after Britain since one of its most | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
sophisticated warships to the disputed Falklands. | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
And the shocking allegations of the mystery behind the kids in the life | :01:14. | :01:22. | |
of a catwalk model. -- behind the glitz in the life of a catwalk | :01:22. | :01:29. | |
model. Hello and welcome. Syrian security | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
forces have pounded the city of Homs for a fifth day in a row. | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
Opposition activists say it is the heaviest bombardment yet, just a | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
day after President Bashar al-Assad said he was ready for dialogue to | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
end of violence. Activists say at least as many as 50 people may have | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
been killed. Turkey is preparing its own diplomatic initiative to | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
try and end the bloodshed. Our correspondent has spent several | :01:54. | :02:04. | |
:02:04. | :02:04. | ||
days inside the besieged city. It began at dawn. For a fifth day, | :02:04. | :02:11. | |
Homs is pounded. Some said it was the worst day of shelling. The | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
casualties are mounting. The people here both fear and expect those | :02:19. | :02:27. | |
tanks and ground troops to move in at some point. Most of the people | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
who have died here have been killed because they went out onto the | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
street. It is not clear what exactly the Syrian army is | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
targeting. But certainly, civilians are bearing the brunt, and most of | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
them are inside, just as we are. They have not been out to play | :02:45. | :02:52. | |
since the uprising began. Their mothers in despair. The outside | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
world will not help us, she says. But God's vengeance will come down | :02:57. | :03:02. | |
on the Syrian President. The Kalashnikovs of the Free Syrian | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
Army can do little against tanks. They hope the regime's forces will | :03:07. | :03:17. | |
:03:17. | :03:18. | ||
crumble from the inside. The Syrian army's morale has collapsed, says | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
an officer who defected just a week ago. They know they are killing | :03:23. | :03:31. | |
civilians. They want this bloodbath to stop. The prevailing mood here | :03:31. | :03:39. | |
is one of despair. People feel trapped, and they believe no one is | :03:39. | :03:47. | |
coming to help. A look at some of the day's other | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
news. European air safety officials are to inspect the entire fleet of | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
Airbus A380 Super jumbos, more than 60 aircraft, for cracks in wing | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
components. Cracks have been found in several planes following a | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
decision by the European Aviation Safety Agency last month to order | :04:05. | :04:08. | |
checks on the 20 aircraft with the highest mileage. | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
Police in the Somali capital Mogadishu say a suicide car bombing | :04:11. | :04:14. | |
has killed at least nine people. The blast took place in the | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
government district. The Somali Islamist group Al-Shabaab told the | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
BBC it carried out the attack. Her the Sudanese President Omar al- | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
Bashir has launched a new regional authority in the war-torn region of | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
Darfur. It has been set up to oversee a peace agreement for the | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
region, which has been in conflict since 2003. But the body has | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
already been rejected by the main rebel movements. | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
A top English football manager, Harry Redknapp, has been found not | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
guilty on two council tax evasion. Along with the former chairman of | :04:46. | :04:49. | |
Portsmouth Football Club, Milan Mandaric, he was accused of | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
concealing payments of almost $300,000 during his time as manager | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
at Portsmouth. Noise from motors on busy | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
commercial shipping lanes can cause chronic stress for Wales. The | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
results have come from a study carried out following the 9/11 | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
terror attacks in New York. The attacks led to a drop in maritime | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
traffic and gave researchers an opportunity to investigate whether | :05:11. | :05:18. | |
sound pollution was a cause of stress for Wales. | :05:18. | :05:23. | |
Let's return now to the bombardment for his fifth day in a rope on the | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
besieged city of Homs. Many residents say it is the worst | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
bombardment they have experienced in the past week. We can speak now | :05:31. | :05:38. | |
to Adomah, who joins us from Homs. -- Omar. What is happening there | :05:38. | :05:48. | |
:05:48. | :05:51. | ||
tonight? In the middle of the day, the Assad army and security force | :05:51. | :06:01. | |
:06:01. | :06:02. | ||
were shelling us with rockets and tanks. Also, many heavy weapons. | :06:02. | :06:07. | |
There are reports, also, of militias loyal to Bashar al-Assad | :06:07. | :06:15. | |
carrying out killings as well. Can you confirm that? Yeah, that is | :06:15. | :06:25. | |
true. They killed the three families in one neighbourhood. | :06:25. | :06:30. | |
are finding it very difficult to hear you. What about infantry from | :06:30. | :06:40. | |
:06:40. | :06:43. | ||
the Syrian army? Have they moved into the area where you are? No... | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
They are just shelling us from faraway, targeting the civilian | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
houses. And what are conditions like for people inside these | :06:55. | :07:01. | |
suburbs, which I think are largely Sunni? Do most houses have | :07:01. | :07:08. | |
electricity and other power, or has that been cut off? There is no | :07:08. | :07:18. | |
:07:18. | :07:20. | ||
electricity, no more food, no more medical supplies. There are no | :07:20. | :07:30. | |
:07:30. | :07:35. | ||
words. We are lucky to stay alive. There is no food. There is no water. | :07:35. | :07:45. | |
:07:45. | :07:45. | ||
There are a lot of snipers surrounding the area. People are | :07:45. | :07:52. | |
trying to give some medical supplies, some food. | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
Thank you for joining us on the line from Homs, which has | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
experienced its fifth day of bombardment by Syrian forces. | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
Coalition party leaders in Greece are thought to be close to | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
announcing a deal on a new austerity package that could help | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
prevent a default on Greece's debts. It is expected to be based on | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
conditions set up by the European Union International Monetary Fund. | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
They include a 20% cut to the minimum wage, as well as further | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
cuts to pensions, which have already been hit hard. It would | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
also see a further 15,000 jobs being slashed from the Civil | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
Service. Proposed measures have been provoking angry protest by | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
Greek unions, but the owner -- EU and IMF say without the deal, they | :08:36. | :08:41. | |
will not sign off the bail-out, without which Greece would default | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
on its debts next month. Let's get the latest from our correspondent | :08:45. | :08:50. | |
in Athens. This meeting has been delayed over the past 24 hours. Do | :08:50. | :08:53. | |
we think political leaders are about to reach some sort of deal | :08:53. | :09:03. | |
:09:03. | :09:05. | ||
finally? All the signs are there that a deal is imminent. The party | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
leaders of the coalition and prime minister have been locked for four | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
hours in talks in the Prime Minister's office. It is a freezing | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
night in Athens, and we are all waiting for some kind of | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
announcement. There is an indication that they are edging | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
closer towards a deal. We had an announcement that the Eurozone | :09:24. | :09:30. | |
finance ministers will meet in Brussels tomorrow evening, probably | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
to sign off on the deal that will be reached here. The deal has been | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
imposed by the EU and IMF in order for Greece to get access to these | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
vital EUR130 billion of international loan, but they are | :09:43. | :09:47. | |
difficult conditions. Some of the cuts being proposed will go down | :09:47. | :09:51. | |
badly on the streets of Athens among an extremely austerity weary | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
nation, which has been living on austerity for the last two years. | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
They can't take much more. Where do we stand on the private sector | :10:00. | :10:08. | |
haircut of 50%? That is a condition for this bail-out deal also to be | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
reached. Parallel assessment negotiations have been going on. | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
Greece wants to negotiate with the private creditors, mainly European | :10:17. | :10:22. | |
banks, to write off at least EUR100 billion of Greek private debt. | :10:22. | :10:27. | |
Those negotiations have been going well, there were then put on hold | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
while the bail-out negotiations were continuing. But we think both | :10:32. | :10:34. | |
sets of public and private negotiations will be signed off at | :10:34. | :10:38. | |
the same time. That would significantly lighter and Greece's | :10:38. | :10:46. | |
debt burdens and reduce the debt to 120% of GDP from 160% at the moment. | :10:46. | :10:49. | |
This is all trying to avoid a catastrophic default by Greece | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
which could happen in the next few weeks, when this country has to pay | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
bond redemptions which it cannot afford. So it is urgently in need | :10:57. | :11:02. | |
of the bail-out money by mid-March, which is when the bond redemptions | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
are due. A disorderly default by Greece could spread contagion | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
throughout the Eurozone and would again raised questions about | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
whether this country can maintain its place within the Eurozone | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
itself. Scuffles have broken out in the | :11:16. | :11:19. | |
Maldives between police and supporters of the former president, | :11:19. | :11:24. | |
forced to step down earlier this week. Mohammed Nasheed was the | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
Maldives' first democratically- elected leader. He says he was | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
removed from office at gunpoint. The BBC's Andrew North is in the | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
Maldives capital. There is now a crowd of several | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
thousand supporters of the former president out on the streets of the | :11:43. | :11:50. | |
capital. This is just after a rally. Many of them are chanting "it is a | :11:50. | :11:58. | |
cup". Our military is corrupted! Feelings are running very high. | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
People are saying their democracy has been taken away. And the former | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
president says the new President, the man who was his vice-president, | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
should now step down and they should be an investigation. He says | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
he will not give up. He will keep fighting. And as you can see, large | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
numbers of people seem to agree. They have come out on the streets | :12:21. | :12:25. | |
to protest. But it is not clear whether this is a real fight back | :12:25. | :12:31. | |
or just the last gasp for President Mohammed Nasheed and his supporters. | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
There has been another twist in the race for the Republican | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
presidential nomination in the US. The former senator for Pennsylvania, | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
Rick Santorum, has won the latest three contests to choose a | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
candidate to run against President Obama in November. Mr Santorum was | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
declared the winner in Colorado, Minnesota and misery. The result is | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
seen as a blow for the Republican front-runner, Mitt Romney. | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
Rick Santorum was savouring victory. He is a former senator, and claims | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
to be the standard-bearer of American social and religious | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
conservatism, the man who should challenge Barack Obama for the | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
presidency in November. Voters in Missouri and Minnesota and Colorado | :13:12. | :13:19. | |
agreed with him. He won all three states. Your votes today were not | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
just heard loud and wide across the states of misery and Minnesota, but | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
they were heard louder across the country forced up his is a long- | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
shot candidacy. He lacks money and organisation, but he won some real | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
momentum here. For the front-runner of the Republican nomination, Mitt | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
Romney, the former governor of Massachusetts, this has been a | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
worrying turn of events. This was a good night for Rick Santorum. I | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
congratulate him and wish him the best. We will keep campaigning, but | :13:51. | :13:56. | |
I expect to become our nominee. Romney has wealth and a powerful | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
campaign machine at his command, but he is struggling to win the | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
affection of the Republican Party. After his speech, this. Someone | :14:04. | :14:10. | |
tried to throw glitter all over him. The secret service had to intervene. | :14:10. | :14:14. | |
These results seem to tell us that Republican voters across America | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
seemed to be divided on who their candidate for the presidency should | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
be. Mitt Romney may be the front- runner, but social and religious | :14:21. | :14:25. | |
Conservatives do not seem to like the look of him. There are still | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
many contests to go before the nomination is settled on, and | :14:29. | :14:39. | |
:14:39. | :14:41. | ||
voters seem to be telling Mr Let's get some analysis on this by | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
former CBS senior correspondent Tom Fenton. Some have said their wheels | :14:45. | :14:52. | |
have come off. Is that oversimplifying things. This is a | :14:52. | :14:58. | |
setback. You have to remember we are early in the game right now. At | :14:58. | :15:06. | |
this point Mitt Romney has 107 delegates. Newt Gingrich has 36, | :15:06. | :15:15. | |
Rick Santorum who has now coming up fast, has 45. Ron Paul has 47. The | :15:15. | :15:25. | |
:15:25. | :15:26. | ||
OECD -- you need 1144. It was pretty meaningless. A give some | :15:26. | :15:31. | |
momentum to Santorum. And what it does also is it changes their | :15:31. | :15:38. | |
strategy for our people. They had focused on the President, he has to | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
fight off Santorum and Gingrich. where do we think it went wrong? | :15:43. | :15:48. | |
Mitt Romney was the clear favourite in one of these primaries. Does it | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
go back to the line he made about he was not being very concerned | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
about the extremely poor? That seems a major gaffer any | :15:56. | :16:05. | |
presidential candidate. This three states that we just saw, this is | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
the Conservative base. Romany does not play well with them. -- Mitt | :16:09. | :16:14. | |
Romney does not play well with them. Moderate has become a much dirty | :16:14. | :16:23. | |
word. Compromise is a deadly sin. So they are beating up trying to | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
prove that they are more Catholic than the Pope. His Rick Santorum | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
seen by many as the person most obviously opposite to what | :16:33. | :16:41. | |
President Obama represents? I think that would be true. He is very | :16:41. | :16:49. | |
Conservative. More so than Newt Gingrich. He's had a colourful | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
private life that has some influence on the Republican base | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
which tends to be socially Conservative. And talking of Newt | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
Gingrich, he says he has pledged to continue right through until the | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
convention. But has he got the funds to do that? He has got | :17:08. | :17:14. | |
several big givers. There were several core conditions which | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
allowed the creation of Super packs, political action committees. | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
Unlimited funds can going to them. They're supposed to be arms-length | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
from the candidates. As long as there are no direct contact with | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
the candidate? It is a complete farce. They have millions of | :17:34. | :17:44. | |
:17:44. | :17:44. | ||
dollars and they are mostly... long way to go. March 6th. But that | :17:44. | :17:52. | |
might not be it. As the 30th anniversary of the | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
Falklands War approaches, Argentina is to make a formal complaint to | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
the United Nations about Britain sending one of its newest | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
destroyers to the seas around the islands. Argentina's President | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner has also complained about the posting | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
of Prince William to work doesn't air and sea rescue pilot in the | :18:11. | :18:15. | |
islands. Officially on the Falklands as | :18:15. | :18:20. | |
Flight Lieutenant Wales, working as a search-and-rescue pilot, Prince | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
William's presence has upset Argentina. It's country's President | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
made clear last night. It is the 30th anniversary of the war in the | :18:29. | :18:36. | |
Falklands coming up. Addressing supporters including veterans of | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
the conflict, President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner accuse their | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
UK of military allies in the islands. The senti modern destroyer | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
to the heir to the throne. So Argentina is making a formal | :18:49. | :18:56. | |
complaint to the unit -- United Nations Security Council. HMS done | :18:56. | :19:03. | |
was is the newest and most powerful ships and the Navy's fleet. But | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
officials here say she is simply replacing another vessel which had | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
been on patrol in the same area. Although Argentina may disagree, | :19:11. | :19:17. | |
the MoD insists that it climate of HMS dot was to the Atlantic is a | :19:17. | :19:23. | |
matter of routine. Likewise Prince William's deployment as a search- | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
and-rescue pilot. But it is clear the Falklands are better defender | :19:27. | :19:37. | |
:19:37. | :19:41. | ||
than they were in 1982 when Argentina invaded. It would be very, | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
very difficult to retake the islands now if we lost them. We | :19:45. | :19:50. | |
have to make sure that Argentina is never tempted to invade. We do not | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
have to be in a position to have to retake them. So heavily -- | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
investing heavily and defending them is the right policy. The UK is | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
treading a careful line over these windswept islands to make sure the | :20:04. | :20:08. | |
war of words doesn't escalate while underlining that it is up to the | :20:09. | :20:12. | |
islanders themselves and not Argentina to determine their own | :20:12. | :20:17. | |
future. Lisa Watson is the editor of | :20:17. | :20:23. | |
Penguin News and she joins us from Port Stanley. You may appreciate | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
the arrival of HMS topless but he accepted is a provocation to | :20:27. | :20:35. | |
Argentina? -- HMS dauntless. Argentina would see anything as a | :20:35. | :20:39. | |
provocation. Everything has been pitched up high. I really do not | :20:39. | :20:44. | |
know what is going to happen next with Argentina. But the President | :20:44. | :20:51. | |
said her approach would be peaceful and she describes -- described the | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
militarisation of the island's as being too much. Why was it | :20:56. | :21:02. | |
necessary to have a future king attending just around the 30th | :21:02. | :21:07. | |
anniversary of the Falkland war? can speak for a wide Prince William | :21:07. | :21:11. | |
is deployed here at the moment. I can only presume that if he had | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
been sent to other countries where the situation were tense as well, | :21:13. | :21:19. | |
other countries would complain of his presence. Presumably a man has | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
to chop -- to his job somewhere. The rescue work year as extremely | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
important to the Falklands, we have a number of fishing vessels around | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
the Falklands and they help with those, I suppose, were every goes | :21:33. | :21:38. | |
there will be complaints. He say that with a smile, but it is not | :21:38. | :21:41. | |
just only fishing vessels around the islands. If there are oil | :21:41. | :21:45. | |
exploration rigs which must make one the Saudis furious given the | :21:45. | :21:53. | |
potential riches around the islands -- the capital of Argentina. | :21:53. | :21:58. | |
don't doubt that it does make them angry. As far as we are concerned | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
this these belong to the Falkland Islanders. Really it does not | :22:03. | :22:09. | |
matter what we do, the President becomes angry. She objects that we | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
license fishing vessels to fish around the Falklands sort of | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
cautious could object to something to something else where she fills | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
Argentina is losing out. There seems to be more regional support | :22:21. | :22:31. | |
for Argentina's stance here. Even chilly isn't allowing fishing there. | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
Do you see are at sea change year regarding the future of the | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
islands? Chile and the other South American Islands are part of | :22:40. | :22:47. | |
another governing body. That is not tunnelled institution. It wasn't | :22:47. | :22:52. | |
around in 1982. They are supporting each other in the same way that | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
their European Union would support each other. Is there a change and | :22:55. | :23:02. | |
that? I do not think there is. Ate the request had been made 10 years | :23:02. | :23:08. | |
ago they would have supported it. Do you ever think this is a little | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
but you tell? It depends on what question you are asking. Is what | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
you tell? Is it you tell to want to remain a British citizen? | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
absolutely not. It may be seen as sentimental but it is not, it is | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
very practical. It has a very good relationship with Britain. Britain | :23:28. | :23:33. | |
supports us and our desire to run around Government. We have our own | :23:33. | :23:36. | |
elected representatives and without the support of Britain we would | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
find that very difficult. We are a small population and we need some | :23:40. | :23:46. | |
kind of support to choose the wrong Government. It is BT are. | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
Many seek modelling as a glittering and lucrative profession but the | :23:50. | :23:55. | |
reality can be pretty different. The fashion industry is largely | :23:55. | :24:05. | |
:24:05. | :24:07. | ||
unregulated and as workers models have little protection. | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
Models are the glamourous, unattainable silent faces of | :24:10. | :24:17. | |
fashion and now they want to be heard. Walking the runway as as | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
sought-after job but the work that goes into creating these images can | :24:21. | :24:29. | |
be long and hard. We've have crafted a model's Bill of Rights. | :24:29. | :24:33. | |
They have pressed for better working conditions because of what | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
she has witnessed over 15 years. saw first-hand how the industry | :24:39. | :24:44. | |
lacks financial transparency and encourages eating disorders and | :24:44. | :24:51. | |
even tolerate sexual abuse in the workplace. Models are independent | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
contractors under US law so they can to form a trade union. To bring | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
models together, Susan Scafidi who has been helping with the campaign | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
says models need protection. backstage privacy policy so the | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
women who are changing are not having photographs of themselves | :25:11. | :25:15. | |
appearing on the internet. A policy not our hire young girl's father | :25:15. | :25:21. | |
runway. A policies says there's a place that you can call F something | :25:21. | :25:25. | |
happens that the 4-Show and you are not comfortable with it. Nobody can | :25:25. | :25:32. | |
be a poster that. Fashion is a multi-billion pound business in New | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
York. In such a competitive field, can an alliance of models really | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
make an impact? One chronicler of the fashion world wonders how you | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
can regulate an industry which is so subjective. It is one of the few | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
industries where someone can some - - summoned a decision is a naughty | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
you simply a modular can nothing else. It is very hard to say what | :25:57. | :26:05. | |
is discriminatory and what is not. The entire industry is based on an | :26:05. | :26:12. | |
-- a very discriminatory practice. Sara Ziff says worker's rights | :26:12. | :26:18. | |
should extend to models to. They beautiful images that we produce | :26:18. | :26:22. | |
and her business should be backed up by some moral code behaviour. | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
public may see models as having it all but many start out as teenagers | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
and an adult world. The question is whether the fashion industry will | :26:31. | :26:40. | |
take kindly to this push for better conditions. | :26:40. | :26:44. | |
One piece a breaking news: Fabio Capello has quit as the England | :26:44. | :26:54. | |
:26:54. | :27:03. | ||
football coach according to the FA. Freezing rain causing problems with | :27:03. | :27:07. | |
by some parts of Scotland and later into northern England. Tomorrow it | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
is just another cold day across much of the UK. These weather | :27:12. | :27:17. | |
fronts push further south and the shift from freezing rain to snow. | :27:17. | :27:24. | |
For tomorrow morning, and icy start for the morning. It could prove to | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
cause problems for many. Her 3 o'clock in the afternoon it is a | :27:29. | :27:35. | |
cold rain, temperatures barely above freezing. Some snow | :27:35. | :27:41. | |
developing. For the south of all of that, plenty of cloudy again. Parts | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
of south-west England, a few holes and that clowned and some sunshine | :27:45. | :27:50. | |
coming through it as we have seen today. South of wills it is really | :27:50. | :27:57. | |
dry. To the north it is wet. The snow in the higher ground | :27:57. | :28:02. | |
developing. For Northern Ireland it is damp but it is mild air here. | :28:02. | :28:07. | |
The mild air with us in Northern Scotland but quite damp in parts of | :28:07. | :28:12. |
