:02:10. > :02:13.Yorkshire Regiment were 21 or under. Their sergeant was 33 and from 1st
:02:13. > :02:16.Battalion the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment. Three of the soldiers
:02:16. > :02:20.were from Huddersfield in West Yorkshire, the families have been
:02:20. > :02:24.talking about their loss this evening to our correspondent.
:02:24. > :02:31.These are the six soldiers who died when their Warrior fighting vehicle
:02:31. > :02:34.was blown up in Kandahar province. The oldest was 33-year-old Sergeant
:02:34. > :02:38.Nigel Coupe from the 1st Battalion the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment.
:02:39. > :02:42.The others including Corporal Jake Hartley were from the 3rd Battalion
:02:42. > :02:46.the Yorkshire Regiment. He should have turned 21 this
:02:46. > :02:50.Saturday. Private Anthony Frampton was 20,
:02:50. > :02:54.described as a true legend in his battalion. Private Christopher
:02:54. > :02:58.Kershaw was the youngest at 19 years old.
:02:58. > :03:02.Private Daniel Wade was 20 years old from Warrington, he had
:03:02. > :03:08.recently qualified as a Warrior driver. Private Daniel Wilford,
:03:08. > :03:13.known to his mates as Wilf was 21. His Commanding Officer said his
:03:14. > :03:17.smile would light up any room. Today some of their families
:03:17. > :03:21.gathered together in Huddersfield, the town where three of the
:03:21. > :03:28.soldiers lived. We are devastated at the loss of
:03:28. > :03:35.our beautiful, boy, Anton. We are very proud of him. He is a legend
:03:35. > :03:39.to us and all that knew him. We are heartbroken... They were kind,
:03:39. > :03:44.generous, a heart of gold. A wicked sense of humour.
:03:44. > :03:50.He loved all of his family and friends. They had such a big group
:03:50. > :03:54.of friends in the army and in civilian life. He is just such a
:03:54. > :03:57.massive, massive loss. These were young men from the
:03:57. > :04:00.Facebook generation. There have been hundreds of messages online to
:04:00. > :04:05.the families. How much of a support have the
:04:05. > :04:12.messages been that you have sat and read last night? Fantastic.
:04:12. > :04:16.It has made us cry. I mean, last night reading them, I spent hours
:04:16. > :04:21.crying. But they do help knowing that
:04:21. > :04:25.people out there did love him as much as we did love him. I didn't
:04:25. > :04:31.want him to go to Afghanistan, personally. I didn't want him to go.
:04:31. > :04:37.It was in the back of my mind he would come back in a wooden box. He
:04:37. > :04:40.said, "No, don't be stupid." Like I said, he has come back in a wooden
:04:40. > :04:44.box. Nearby, friends of Private Daniel
:04:44. > :04:49.Wilford gathered outside of his home.
:04:49. > :04:54.It is just too soon. It can't sink in. He's been there
:04:54. > :04:58.four weeks. It is not long enough. I don't think he even got to fire
:04:58. > :05:03.his weapon. Like many towns in northern England,
:05:03. > :05:11.hudsstpeeld a well-established recruiting ground for the
:05:11. > :05:15.recruiting army -- huds field. But one sergeant told me that three
:05:15. > :05:20.men were in the same armoured vehicle from the same town at the
:05:20. > :05:23.wrong time. 45 miles away in Warrington,
:05:23. > :05:33.tributes were paid to Private Daniel Wade.
:05:33. > :05:33.
:05:33. > :05:40.He was a life, he will remain so in her heart and for their first child
:05:40. > :05:43.expected in June. The men died when the vehicle was blown up by a huge
:05:43. > :05:47.Taliban bomb. They said that they are proud of what they did. The
:05:47. > :05:51.investigation continues as to how they managed it.
:05:51. > :05:54.Whether they have been effective in spotting patterns set by the
:05:54. > :05:58.coalition forces, they understand the ground well. The coalition
:05:58. > :06:08.force tactics well. Even when the tactics change the Taliban have
:06:08. > :06:09.
:06:10. > :06:15.been quick to adapt their tactics. Today at 3 York's Base, they put
:06:15. > :06:17.out pictures of the dead, the message is clear, gone but never to
:06:17. > :06:24.be forgotten. The soldiers and the families
:06:24. > :06:29.mourning their loss this evening. 2014 is the deadline for British
:06:29. > :06:33.troops to pull out of Afghanistan. Our diplomatic correspondent is
:06:33. > :06:40.looking at the prospects for the stability of the country once the
:06:40. > :06:46.secured is handed to the Afghans themselves. James? In the outset,
:06:46. > :06:50.the response was clear, to go to the Afghanistan, to push out the
:06:50. > :06:54.Al-Qaeda but then what, a decade later, Taliban fighters cannot be
:06:54. > :06:57.fought by military pleens alone. It needs a political strategy, but
:06:57. > :07:02.critics say that has ran out of steam.
:07:02. > :07:06.I think that we know without a clear and a determined political
:07:06. > :07:11.strategy that binds in all of the tribes of Afghanistan and the
:07:11. > :07:15.neighbours, then the tactical successes of our armed forces will
:07:15. > :07:19.be met by tactical reverses as well. That is what we are suffering.
:07:19. > :07:23.So is that right? Britain, the United States and NATO insist there
:07:23. > :07:28.is a clear plan. They point to the training up of
:07:28. > :07:30.Afghanistan's own armed forces to take over as foreign troops
:07:30. > :07:37.steadily withdraw. But future stability means talking
:07:37. > :07:41.to the Taliban as well. Persuading them to swap killing for
:07:41. > :07:46.a positive role, sharing power in future governments, so far that
:07:46. > :07:50.negotiation is barely off the ground. Could it mean trading away
:07:50. > :07:55.hard-won rights, including for women as part of the Taliban's
:07:55. > :07:58.price? For most ordinary Afghans, their country is more stable now,
:07:58. > :08:05.less violent. But their President, Hamid Karzai,
:08:05. > :08:11.is widely seen as weak and political progress is very slow.
:08:11. > :08:16.Violence still players -- flares up easily, especially when the Afghans
:08:16. > :08:20.are provoked, as recently when US soldiers burnt the Koran. All of
:08:20. > :08:23.this matters as after the foreign forces leave, any breakdown in
:08:23. > :08:28.Afghanistan threatens the entire region it is a tough neighbourhood.
:08:28. > :08:31.With Iran and Pakistan next door, any return to Civil War in
:08:31. > :08:36.Afghanistan risks spilling across the borders.
:08:37. > :08:44.The worst case scenario is probably not a Taliban takeover, but what it
:08:44. > :08:47.is you have the central government basically collapse into a very
:08:47. > :08:52.ineffective structure. You have the country divided.
:08:52. > :08:58.The violent break up of Afghanistan is not inevitable, of course, but
:08:58. > :09:03.strategy is far less ambitious than it once was. Western governments
:09:03. > :09:07.are reducing expectations of what can be achieved in such an
:09:07. > :09:12.impoverished and fragile country. A British man held hostage in
:09:12. > :09:16.Nigeria has been killed after an attempt to rescue him and his
:09:16. > :09:19.Italian colleague. Chris McManus was captured in May last year,
:09:19. > :09:25.working for a construction company in the north-west of the country.
:09:25. > :09:33.The Prime Minister said that the rescue mission was carried out as
:09:33. > :09:38.the men were in imminent danger. Our Security Correspondent is at
:09:38. > :09:43.Downing Street. Gordon, this cannot have been an easy decision? They
:09:43. > :09:48.are among the hardest decisions faced in Government, when to deploy
:09:48. > :09:52.British troops to rescue a hostage, believed in danger.
:09:52. > :09:56.Chris McManus, a British hostage held for nearly a year in Nigeria,
:09:56. > :09:59.but today, he and an Italian held with him were killed as the Prime
:09:59. > :10:05.Minister announced late this afternoon.
:10:05. > :10:08.Preparations were made to mount an operation to attempt to rescue
:10:08. > :10:13.Chris McManus. Together with the Nigerian government, I organised it
:10:13. > :10:22.to go ahead with UK support. It is with great regret that I have to
:10:22. > :10:27.say that both countries and the Italian person he was with are not
:10:27. > :10:31.alive. Both men were murdered by their captors before they could be
:10:31. > :10:37.rescued. The two engineers were working for
:10:37. > :10:41.a construction company when they were kidnapped in Nigeria. Both
:10:41. > :10:46.Chris McManus and Franco Lamolinara were taken from a house in May last
:10:46. > :10:50.year. There was little publicity, but a video of the men surrounded
:10:50. > :10:54.by captors emerged last August. It was a first proof of life that led
:10:54. > :10:59.to a belief they were in danger. Another video in December,
:10:59. > :11:02.including a credible threat to kill them. After a long search, new
:11:02. > :11:05.intelligence led to the men being tracked down to a house in soak
:11:05. > :11:09.soak soak. Earlier today the Prime Minister made the decision to
:11:09. > :11:14.launch a military operation. Involving, it is believed, the
:11:14. > :11:19.Special Boat Service, working in support of Nigerian forces. After a
:11:19. > :11:23.fierce gun battle, the hostages were found dead it is believed at
:11:23. > :11:29.the hands of their captors. The group holding the men are believed
:11:29. > :11:34.to be a splinter of bokbok. A increasingly violent Nigeriaiage
:11:34. > :11:39.slammist organisation. They launched this bomb attack in
:11:39. > :11:43.Abuja last summer. The group may have developed links with a group
:11:43. > :11:48.who have a history of kidnapping Westerners for ransom in North
:11:48. > :11:52.Africa. This evening, the family of Chris issued a statement: We knew
:11:52. > :11:57.that Chris was in a dangerous situation. However we knew that
:11:57. > :12:02.everything that could be done was being done. Hostage rescues are
:12:02. > :12:06.always risky operations, this case ended tragically.
:12:06. > :12:11.Officials talk of a pressure of collapsing time frame. Of the fears
:12:11. > :12:15.of the window of opportunity, of the intelligence, knowing where the
:12:15. > :12:21.hostages were, may be closing. Then, the decision must be made to take
:12:21. > :12:26.the risk of going in or the risk of losing the chance of being able to
:12:26. > :12:30.rescue the hostages. I'm told that the British troops were first in,
:12:30. > :12:40.shooting a kidnapper, but by the time they reached the hostages it
:12:40. > :12:41.
:12:41. > :12:44.Calls for a mansion tax have grown stronger. Ed Balls has told the BBC
:12:44. > :12:52.that any money raised by the new tax should be spent on stopping
:12:52. > :13:01.cuts to tax credits and not on cutting the top rate of tax.
:13:01. > :13:04.Here's Nick Robinson. Thank you very much! Ed Balls is
:13:04. > :13:10.here today for a reason. They do not understand but their parents do.
:13:10. > :13:13.This is getting really messy. is the polite way to describe
:13:13. > :13:17.Labour's opinion of Government plans to cut tax credits for
:13:18. > :13:22.200,000 families that work part- time. The Shadow Chancellor says
:13:22. > :13:26.that from next month couples could be better off not working at all.
:13:26. > :13:31.If you do 16 hours to get your tax credits you have to find it more
:13:31. > :13:38.hours. To suddenly ask for eight more hours, they are not going to.
:13:38. > :13:42.I suspect they will not work and they will lose out. The reality is
:13:42. > :13:48.that some parents will be better off not working. That is what I am
:13:48. > :13:52.doing. The cost of reversing the cuts to tax credits is high. Half a
:13:52. > :13:56.billion pounds a year. Where would Labour find the money? For people
:13:56. > :14:04.working here at the moment, these are great job.
:14:04. > :14:08.Ed Balls insisted in Birmingham at a factory that it would help the
:14:08. > :14:13.economy grow more. He also said he would back the idea for a brand new
:14:13. > :14:16.tax. Do you like the idea for a mansion tax, tax on the most
:14:16. > :14:20.expensive properties? I have supported it in the past. We need
:14:20. > :14:26.to look at it carefully. If the Chancellor wants to go down that
:14:26. > :14:30.road, I will support him. What is the purpose? If the purpose is to
:14:30. > :14:34.help families facing higher tuition fees, higher VAT and higher fuel
:14:34. > :14:38.bills, for instance boosting their tax credits, then yes. But George
:14:38. > :14:44.Osborne seems to be saying that the priority is to use the mansion tax
:14:44. > :14:46.only to help people on a highest incomes of over �150,000. I say
:14:46. > :14:51.that is out of touch with the struggle that families are facing
:14:51. > :14:56.and will not get people into jobs, which is what we need. At GKN,
:14:56. > :15:00.which makes parts for aeroplanes and cars, Ed Balls was told the
:15:00. > :15:03.company can see green shoots of recovery. He says that banks to
:15:03. > :15:09.Government austerity they are not growing fast or strong enough and
:15:09. > :15:19.Britain still needs the stimulus. I think it is essential right now.
:15:19. > :15:23.George Osborne has cut too far and too fast. The VAT rise was too fast.
:15:23. > :15:27.The idea that stimulus the cause economic borrowing is a nonsense.
:15:27. > :15:31.Are you saying that the Chancellor could afford to cut VAT and avoid
:15:31. > :15:35.the cuts in tax credit that you do not like and avoid the cuts in
:15:35. > :15:39.child benefit and deal with fuel duty? Where will he find the money?
:15:39. > :15:43.He can deal with the tax credits changed by closing the stamp duty
:15:44. > :15:50.loophole for properties above �1 million. If he is looking at Manton
:15:50. > :15:54.tax, that could pay for support for child benefit and tax credits. --
:15:54. > :15:58.mansion tax. Growth has flat lined and unemployment has gone up and he
:15:58. > :16:02.is borrowing more. The economy is not growing and unemployment is
:16:02. > :16:06.rising and that costs us more. Balls and Ed Miliband used to help
:16:06. > :16:15.Gordon Brown write his budgets but they cannot write this one. They
:16:15. > :16:19.are trying to influence it. Coming up on the programme: What
:16:19. > :16:27.caught the Queen's attention on the catwalk at the start of the Diamond
:16:27. > :16:32.Jubilee tour of Britain? One year ago this Sunday, a huge
:16:32. > :16:35.earthquake shook the sea bed 40 miles off the coast of Japan. The
:16:36. > :16:40.country is still struggling to deal with the consequences. 15,000
:16:40. > :16:45.people were killed in the Sugiyama that followed and thousands are
:16:45. > :16:50.still unaccounted for. -- the tsunami. We have been too Yuriage
:16:50. > :16:56.to speak to one family that were caught up in the disaster.
:16:56. > :17:04.Shadows on the landscape, all that is left of Yuriage. Avoid full of
:17:04. > :17:10.memories. For Tatsuya Suzuki it is the memory of the smile that his
:17:10. > :17:15.wife gave him as he left for work. I wish I could go back in time, he
:17:15. > :17:20.says, to go back to that day. If only I could have saved her. He is
:17:20. > :17:24.burdened by guilt that he survived and his wife did not. As the
:17:24. > :17:28.tsunami swept into Yuriage, he managed to get their two children
:17:28. > :17:38.to save places inside buildings. Seconds later his wife was carried
:17:38. > :17:41.
:17:41. > :17:46.away by the waves. Today Hikaru, seven, and Hibiki it has taken one
:17:46. > :17:51.year, says Tatsuya. A sometimes they cry out in their sleep. When I
:17:51. > :17:56.see the sadness I struggle to know what to say. My heart aches.
:17:56. > :18:00.Alongside his wife, the tsunami killed 1000 of the 7000 people
:18:00. > :18:04.living here, according to the final tally. One year on and the
:18:04. > :18:08.Government is now burning the little that remains of Yuriage.
:18:08. > :18:11.They want to raise the ground three metres higher and build this Town
:18:11. > :18:15.again, and for hundreds of miles along the coast it is the same
:18:15. > :18:23.story. Dozens of communities that were raised are planning to start
:18:23. > :18:31.anew. -- erased. First, the unfinished task of accounting for
:18:31. > :18:41.everybody. More than 3000 are still missing. At this school in Okawa,
:18:41. > :18:46.70 children were swept away and four have not been found. Nothing
:18:46. > :18:51.moves on. I have been following police teams like this all year. I
:18:51. > :18:55.cannot find any trace of my daughter. Hibiki and Hikaru used to
:18:55. > :19:01.be inseparable from their mother. Hikaru is doing well in a new
:19:01. > :19:05.school. Their father feels trapped by the past. Even though one year
:19:05. > :19:12.has gone by, nothing has really changed. Time has stopped for me.
:19:12. > :19:16.We are still grieving. His children never want to live in this Town
:19:16. > :19:23.again, but one day Tatsuya says that he will move back. He says
:19:23. > :19:27.this place still feels like home. The envoy appointed by the United
:19:27. > :19:30.Nations to help resolve the conflict in Syria has said the
:19:30. > :19:34.country's opposition should sit down with its Government and reach
:19:34. > :19:38.a political solution. Kofi Annan warned that further militarisation
:19:38. > :19:42.of the conflict would worse than a desperate situation. His comments
:19:42. > :19:45.have been criticised by Syrian opposition leaders. They said they
:19:45. > :19:49.would encourage President Assad in his use of force.
:19:49. > :19:53.The Greek Government has indicated it is confident of completing a
:19:53. > :19:58.crucial deal with private investors to bring down its debt and secured
:19:58. > :20:07.a second international bail-out. Investors have until 8 o'clock this
:20:07. > :20:10.evening to secured the deal. It will see them making losses of 50%.
:20:10. > :20:15.Does that look like most of the private investors are accepting the
:20:15. > :20:19.deal? We will not get the precise figures until tomorrow morning but
:20:19. > :20:24.Government sources are saying that 85% of private investors, even as
:20:24. > :20:28.many as 90%, have agreed to take steep losses on their holdings of
:20:28. > :20:32.Greek Government debt. What does this mean? For the first time
:20:32. > :20:37.almost since the crisis in Greece began, Greece's debt will not
:20:37. > :20:42.continue to go up and as a result of this deal it will go down by 100
:20:42. > :20:47.billion euros. Almost certainly, the EU and the IMF will approve a
:20:47. > :20:51.second Greek bail-out, staving off Greek bankruptcy. What does this
:20:52. > :20:58.mean for the overall crisis here? I think it provides a breathing space.
:20:58. > :21:01.It does by some time for Greece. Even after today's deal, as
:21:01. > :21:07.Greece's debt remains high and this country is in its 5th year of
:21:07. > :21:10.recession with no growth in sight and appalling unemployment figures.
:21:10. > :21:15.This question remains unanswered, where will the growth come from to
:21:15. > :21:19.deal with the remaining debt? you.
:21:19. > :21:23.The cost of running Britain's Railways is one-third higher than
:21:23. > :21:28.most European countries according to the Government, so they have set
:21:28. > :21:36.out plans to cut inefficiency and waste to save �3.5 billion a year.
:21:36. > :21:40.Will it succeed in stopping the inflation-busting train fare rises?
:21:40. > :21:45.The UK railway network costs too much to run and needs to be more
:21:45. > :21:49.efficient. That is the Government's key claim after a report found that
:21:50. > :21:55.some European networks were 30% less expensive to operate.
:21:55. > :21:59.Ministers say that big savings will ensure a brighter future.
:21:59. > :22:02.railways are too expensive in the first place. There is a huge amount
:22:02. > :22:08.of inefficiency there. I am challenging the industry to work
:22:08. > :22:12.together more effectively so that they can take out �3.5 billion of
:22:12. > :22:16.inefficiencies that we are all playing for. Ministers want some
:22:16. > :22:21.savings used to keep a lid on flowers and an end to inflation-
:22:21. > :22:25.busting increases within the next few years. Some fares at peak-time
:22:25. > :22:29.may rise, while others fall to try to spread demand. It is certainly a
:22:29. > :22:34.controversial issue with passengers. I am shocked by how much railway
:22:34. > :22:38.travel costs in this country now. Frankly, it is simply not worth it.
:22:38. > :22:44.I think we need to look at what transport means for the economy of
:22:44. > :22:50.this country. Like in other countries, we see it as a public
:22:50. > :22:53.good rather than a profit-making machine. Other changes anticipated
:22:53. > :22:57.by the Government include fewer ticket offices with more scope to
:22:57. > :23:00.buy tickets elsewhere including Post Offices. Smart ticketing will
:23:00. > :23:08.see greater use of pre-paid swipe cards and there could be fewer
:23:08. > :23:11.train guards, as operators cut costs. One railway union has
:23:11. > :23:15.threatened industrial action, claiming that thousands of jobs are
:23:15. > :23:21.at risk. They have said that passengers will lose out. There
:23:21. > :23:26.will be stationed with no staff whatsoever. No ticket offices using
:23:26. > :23:31.smart ticketing. People will turn up at stations and they will be
:23:31. > :23:34.muggers' paradises. One of the aims of the policy is to have more
:23:34. > :23:37.joined the management of the railway system, for example getting
:23:37. > :23:41.train operators to work more closely with Network Rail managers
:23:41. > :23:46.in their area to try to ensure minimal disruption for passengers
:23:46. > :23:50.in the event of engineering work. But delivering these changes, which
:23:50. > :23:55.apply to England, Wales and routes between Scotland and England, would
:23:55. > :24:00.not be easy. Delivering efficiency savings never is.

:24:49. > :24:54.Leicester. Few places demonstrate the changes that have occurred in
:24:54. > :24:59.British society over her reign. At Leicester Cathedral, the Queen
:24:59. > :25:04.attended a special service where representatives from different
:25:04. > :25:07.faith communities joined Christian leaders. Prayers were said for the
:25:07. > :25:12.six British soldiers killed in Afghanistan. We pray for those that
:25:12. > :25:16.died in Afghanistan yesterday, from the Yorkshire and the Duke of
:25:16. > :25:26.Lancaster's Regiment. There were also prayers for the Queen in her

:25:27. > :25:30.jubilee year. Your gift of love and joy and peace. Outside the
:25:30. > :25:35.cathedral the Queen and the duchess stood side-by-side to receive
:25:35. > :25:38.bouquets of flowers. The fact that the Queen invited the Dutch is to
:25:38. > :25:42.join her today is a public endorsement of her importance to
:25:42. > :25:48.the royal family now. At times they worked as a team, the Queen taking
:25:48. > :25:51.one side of the crowds and the Duchess the other. They went
:25:51. > :25:54.together to a fashion show at De Montfort University. Their
:25:54. > :25:59.relationship appears to be easy, the younger woman leaning across to
:25:59. > :26:04.chat. Then in the city centre, the Queen hoping perhaps that the
:26:04. > :26:09.newcomer will absorb a few lessons. But there is something more to the
:26:09. > :26:13.Duchess's presents today. It is also a subtle signal that after 60
:26:13. > :26:19.years the Queen recognises the importance of bringing on someone's

:26:23. > :26:26.There is no doubt who is the star of the show. Not everybody is a
:26:26. > :26:31.monarchist, that is for sure, but this monarch appears to be as
:26:31. > :26:35.popular as ever. She is the Queen of our country and I am proud of
