treatment that would allow a baby to be born with DNA from three people. | :00:12. | :00:16. | |
The IVF technique, developed in Britain, has the potential to be a | :00:16. | :00:20. | |
global first, wiping out several inherited conditions. Families who | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
know the reality of those conditions and who have lost children to them | :00:24. | :00:30. | |
say it is a breakthrough. You live with it, and every day you don't | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
want to get over it, and this would have made a huge difference. | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
after criticism of so-called designer babies, we will be looking | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
at the long-term implications. Also tonight, Ian Brady loses his bid to | :00:45. | :00:49. | |
be moved from a maximum-security hospital to jail after a tribunal | :00:49. | :00:56. | |
rejects his case. Turmoil in Egypt as the president | :00:56. | :00:59. | |

coming up in Sportsday here on BBC become the first country to allow | :01:46. | :01:51. | |
genetic material from three people to create a baby. The aim is to | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
prevent couples from passing severe disabilities onto their children, | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
and potentially removing the risk for future generations, too. The | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
ground-breaking IVF procedure will be the subject of draft legislation | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
introduced later this year. But some critics think it is unethical. | :02:07. | :02:11. | |
Medical correspondent Fergus Walsh reports. | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
A bold step for science and society, these images under the | :02:16. | :02:19. | |
microscope show the very moment that DNA from three people is mixed to | :02:19. | :02:24. | |
create a human embryo in order to eliminate devastating genetic | :02:24. | :02:29. | |
disorders. The scientists in Newcastle who carried out those | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
safety tests in a dish now have the green light from government and | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
could start treating patients within two years. I am particularly | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
delighted for the families, many of whom have mitochondrial disease. I | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
think it is great news for them, because it does give all we hope it | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
will give women the opportunity to have healthy children. So how will | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
the treatment helps some couples at risk of passing on genetic | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
diseases? It begins with a fertilised egg. At the centre, the | :03:01. | :03:05. | |
nuclei containing all the crucial genes from our parents. They are | :03:05. | :03:12. | |
removed, leaving behind the faulty mitochondria. These are the energy | :03:12. | :03:18. | |
factories of cells. The nuclei are transferred to another woman's egg. | :03:18. | :03:24. | |
The resulting embryo will have 22,000 genes from the parents, and | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
just 37 genes from the second woman's healthy mitochondria. | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
Scientists say it is a bit like changing the battery on a laptop. | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
That's genetic change will benefit all future generations. This is not | :03:37. | :03:41. | |
about tampering with who we are, the genes from our mother and father | :03:41. | :03:47. | |
that make us what we look like, how we behave, are any nucleus. The only | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
genes in the mitochondria, which incidentally has no paternal linkage | :03:49. | :03:58. | |
at all, are the genes to provide energy for that cell to function. | :03:58. | :04:01. | |
This was Edward three years ago before his death from a rare | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
mitochondrial disease. His mother Sharon had six other affected | :04:06. | :04:13. | |
children, all of whom died within a few days of birth. You live with | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
that pain every day, you don't want to ever get over it, and this would | :04:17. | :04:24. | |
have made a huge difference to me. From the discovery of the structure | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
of DNA in 1953, to the birth of the world's first test-tube baby, Louise | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
Brown, in 1978, Time and again Britain has led the world in | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
advances in genetics and human biology. But critics say this is a | :04:38. | :04:45. | |
step too far towards designer babies. A child is something to be | :04:46. | :04:51. | |
loved unconditionally, not dependent on its characteristics. Once we | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
start manipulating our children's characteristics, you do just turn | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
them into another consumer commodity. These diseases are rare, | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
just five to ten couples per year could benefit. It will need a free | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
vote in the House of Commons to approve this key step for medicine | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
and society. Fergus Walsh is with me in the | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
studio, a fascinating story, what other long-term implications of all | :05:15. | :05:19. | |
of this? This is an amazing and vans for these families, giving a | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
permanent fix for a genetic fault that is causing premature death and | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
illness to their families for generations. It would mean not just | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
their children, but their children's children would be free of that. One | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
in 6500 babies has a mitochondrial disorder, so it is not huge numbers, | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
and it cannot be used for other inherited conditions. But, | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
Michelle, it is also about how it is being done that is significant, | :05:48. | :05:54. | |
mixing the DNA of three people. The donor DNA is just a tiny scrap, but | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
it will be passed down the generations for centuries to come, | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
and public consultation showed broad support for this, and there is final | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
scientific safety studies to be done, but I am certain that this | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
will happen, and it will happen in the UK. | :06:10. | :06:14. | |
Thank you, Fergus Walsh. Moors murderer Ian Brady has lost | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
his legal bid to be transferred from a maximum security psychiatric | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
hospital to a prison. Brady, who kidnapped, tortured and killed five | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
children in 1960s, had argued that despite his severe personality | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
disorder, he was not mentally ill. Judith Moritz reports. | :06:31. | :06:36. | |
Ian Brady has spent nearly half a century behind bars, out of view of | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
the world. This month he spoke publicly for the first time since | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
his trial in 1966. Today a tribunal judge ruled that Brady must day at | :06:46. | :06:52. | |
Ashworth Hospital, something his doctors wanted. He has a severe | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
personality disorder, a chronic mental illness, and the special | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
treatment and a special assessment of risk that our staff can provide | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
is something that you would not be finding anywhere else. The 1960s | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
Moors murderer 's are amongst the most notoriously British criminal | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
history. Brady and his girlfriend, Myra Hindley, abducted, tortured and | :07:13. | :07:19. | |
then murdered five children. This week, Brady described his crimes as | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
petty, recreational killings, done for the existential experience. It | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
was hard to stomach for the families of his victims, who are relieved he | :07:27. | :07:34. | |
will stay in hospital. In his own mind, he thought I can pull one over | :07:34. | :07:39. | |
them and get away with what he wants to get away with, but it has | :07:39. | :07:45. | |
backfired on him. I am so pleased, so pleased. Brady claims that at | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
Ashworth Hospital he is on hunger strike and that hippies moved to a | :07:49. | :07:54. | |
prison, he can starve to death. He is only the second psychiatric | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
patient to be given permission for a public mental health tribunal. The | :07:57. | :08:03. | |
costs, as is standard, are being met by the taxpayer. All mental health | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
patients are entitled to request a private annual mental health | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
review. If they request is not made, a mandatory tribunal is held | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
every three years. Radio has had an undisclosed number of such hearings, | :08:15. | :08:24. | |
the previous one in 2010. -- Brady. Patients yesterday on average six or | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
seven years, but Brady's 's 27 year detention is unusual. His | :08:29. | :08:32. | |
psychiatric team believe that his mental health condition is still so | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
complex that he requires hospital treatment. Brady 's lawyers have not | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
said whether he will appeal the tribunal decision. For the source | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
evil future, he will remain at Ashworth, where the Moors murderer | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
is considered a patient, not a prisoner. | :08:48. | :08:53. | |
-- for the foreseeable future. European leaders have agreed a deal | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
on the EU budget today with David Cameron hitting out at what he | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
thought was a last-minute attempt to cut the British rebate. The final | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
agreement includes spending 6 billion euros over the next two | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
years on tackling youth unemployment. Across the EU, around | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
6 million young people, nearly a quarter of all under 25s, are | :09:12. | :09:19. | |
currently out of work. From Brussels, Gavin Hewitt reports. | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
This was a European summit that celebrated agreement. After all, | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
after months of division, they agreed the EU budget for the next | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
seven years. The David Cameron felt he had been ambushed. For the budget | :09:33. | :09:38. | |
negotiations due him into a new row about the British rebate. French | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
officials argued that rural grants for Newman Estates change the basis | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
on which the rebate should be calculated. -- for new European | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
states. The Prime Minister poured out his frustration with the way | :09:51. | :09:55. | |
Brussels works. In this town, you have to be ready for an ambush at | :09:55. | :10:01. | |
any minute, Lock and Load, have one up the spout and be ready for it. | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
After an unscheduled meeting, the Prime Minister had been reassured | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
the rebate would not be changed. But the priority of the summit was youth | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
unemployment. Across Europe, there are shown shocking numbers. In | :10:13. | :10:21. | |
Greece, 63% of under 25s are without work, in Spain it is 56%. In the UK, | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
nearly 21% of young people are unemployed. In Germany, the figure | :10:25. | :10:32. | |
is just 8%. Take Spain. It can appear at ease with itself, but it | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
harbours a lost generation. Like these four friends in this beach | :10:37. | :10:46. | |
resort town. This man has been out of work for more than a year. | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
TRANSLATION: I have been looking for a work for a while, and I have not | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
found anything. There is little workout there. | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
At this time of year, there are part-time jobs. This work is | :11:00. | :11:08. | |
temporary. TRANSLATION: I have not worked for a year. I have been | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
working here for three weeks, and finding work has been difficult. | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
There are loads of young people looking for work and giving up their | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
CV is to everyone. At the summit in Brussels, 6 billion euros were set | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
aside to help young people out of work by training and | :11:23. | :11:29. | |
apprenticeships. Regions with more than 25% unemployed, including six | :11:29. | :11:33. | |
in Britain, will be able to apply for funding. The money will come | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
from the existing EU budget. TRANSLATION: I personally told them | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
that this scheme is highly ambitious. In Spain, there are 1 | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
million unemployed young people. We are not going to be able to quickly | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
make them a job offer, we shouldn't raise false hopes. No-one here | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
believes the funds will prove a game changer. Indeed, the president of | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
the European Parliament described them as a drop in the ocean. Some | :11:58. | :12:04. | |
here have calculated that you would need 21 billion euros, rather than 6 | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
billion, to make a difference. European leaders know, however, they | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
will be judged on whether they can help the 26 million people out of | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
work. Barack Obama has arrived in | :12:18. | :12:22. | |
Johannesburg tonight on the latest leg of his tour of Africa. It is | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
unclear whether the US president will visit Nelson Mandela during his | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
stay in South Africa. Mr Mandela remains critically ill in hospital | :12:29. | :12:34. | |
in Pretoria. Earlier, welly Mandela a van update on her former | :12:34. | :12:43. | |
husband's condition. I am not a doctor, but from what he was a few | :12:43. | :12:48. | |
days ago, there is great improvement, but clinically he is | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
still unwell. The public will be able to assess | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
the performance of surgeons in England from today has information | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
about the success of their operations is published online. By | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
the end of the year, data will be available across ten specialisms | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
with the Government saying that transparency will drive up | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
standards. As Sophie Hutchinson reports, some surgeons have refused | :13:09. | :13:19. | |
:13:19. | :13:20. | ||
to take part. It is being described as a watershed moment, the | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
performance of NHS surgeons and their operations published online | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
for the public to see. This graph can be viewed on the NHS Choices | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
website and shows whether individual doctors are working safely within | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
required standards. The data has been adjusted to take into account | :13:35. | :13:40. | |
different risk factors. We have seen public trust challenged in some of | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
the most cherished British institutions, of which the NHS is | :13:43. | :13:50. | |
just one. And there is a tendency under circumstances like that to | :13:50. | :13:57. | |
just resort to secrecy, to climb up. He real solution is in transparency. | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
Controversially, the website also shows raw data with surgeons names | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
and the percentage of patients who died in their care. The publication | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
of individual doctors results from the work they do in operating | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
theatres has been done in the name of transparency, to give patients as | :14:13. | :14:20. | |
much information as possible about the doctors who treat them. But | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
there are concerns. Critics insist it is difficult to give individual | :14:23. | :14:31. | |
ratings because surgeons work in teams. They warn there is no simple | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
way to measure performance because high risk patients may have less | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
successful outcomes. Some fear the rating system could discourage | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
pioneering operations, with surgeons playing safe if they fear that | :14:41. | :14:44. | |
failure will damage their reputations. Six doctors have | :14:44. | :14:49. | |
refused to have their data published and were named on the order of the | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
Health Secretary. All are working to the required standard. One explained | :14:52. | :14:59. | |
why he was against it. The trouble with data is that you have to have | :14:59. | :15:01. | |
experts to entrap the data and unless you understand that, there is | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
a real risk of the public being misled. We actually cannot pick up | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
bad surgeons with this system. Retired headteacher Rawley Fawley | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
recently had one of the operations that consultants are being rated on | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
but said he would not have looked at the website. I put my trust in the | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
surgeons, their professionalism and their skill to get me through it. At | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
the end of the day, I feel that is what they have done, and I shall be | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
forever grateful. There is no doubt some of the data published exposes | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
key differences in surgical performances, but reading it | :15:39. | :15:46. | |
accurately is likely to be a challenge for many patients. There | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
have been violent clashes in Egypt as demonstrations took place both in | :15:50. | :15:56. | |
support of, and against President Mohamed Morsi. This evening there | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
are unconfirmed reports that an American photojournalist has an | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
killed in Alexandria. It is now nearly a year since President Morsi | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
came to power, promising radical change. One year on, Egypt is still | :16:08. | :16:14. | |
facing dire economic problems with an estimated 25% of the population | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
living in poverty. There has also been a collapse in tourism and there | :16:18. | :16:27. | |
are shortages of food and fuel. Demonstrations are once again | :16:27. | :16:34. | |
filling the streets of Egypt. Huge rallies are planned for the coming | :16:34. | :16:43. | |
days, calling for President Morsi to step down over broken promises. But | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
this is a show of strength by the President's Muslim Brotherhood. | :16:48. | :16:51. | |
are here to support the elected President Mohamed Morsi, and to | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
prevent any trial to get out the regime. TRANSLATION: We have been | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
dreaming of an elected president. We got him and look what they are | :17:03. | :17:07. | |
doing. They have shown him no mercy, but we are here to defend | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
him. This demonstration of pro-Mohamed Morsi supporters has | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
been very relaxed so far in the centre of Cairo, but there have been | :17:19. | :17:23. | |
running battles between pro-and anti-Mohamed Morsi supporters, | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
deaths and injuries. And the rhetoric between the two groups has | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
become ever more dangerous. Politics these days is tearing apart Egyptian | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
families. This man is an opposition activist, jailed for insulting | :17:37. | :17:46. | |
President Morsi. His father is as loyal a supporter as you can get for | :17:46. | :17:53. | |
the president. He says his son went too far. TRANSLATION: The | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
disagreement between us about his ideological views was partly because | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
he's so outspoken. His words go the limit of our traditions and what is | :18:03. | :18:12. | |
acceptable. Ahmed's fellow opposition activists are gathering | :18:12. | :18:18. | |
to planned protests to mark Mohamed Morsi's first year in charge. Among | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
them is Ahmed's wife. With her husband in jail, she has taken up | :18:22. | :18:28. | |
his cause against the Muslim Brotherhood. TRANSLATION: They are | :18:28. | :18:32. | |
trying to polarise people, and Egyptians know it. But within the | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
family, we still have to avoid talking politics and watching the | :18:36. | :18:46. | |
:18:46. | :18:47. | ||
news together to stop any controversial discussions. And the | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
split in Ahmed's family are reflected across the society that is | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
turning to violence. This was Egypt's second city, Alexandria, | :18:56. | :19:03. | |
today. The Muslim Brotherhood's offices were attacked, at least two | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
people died, including an American who had been looking on. It is no | :19:06. | :19:13. | |
wonder Egyptians are fearful of what the coming days will bring. | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
Ministers have announced proposals that could bring big changes to | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
social care services across England. They include establishing | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
national criteria determining who is eligible to receive state support | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
for substantial needs such as washing and dressing. James Landale | :19:29. | :19:33. | |
joins us from Westminster. The government says it is about getting | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
rid of the postcode lottery but how big a change are they suggesting? | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
England Council set their own rules to determine who gets social care | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
and who does not. Begun and says that is wrong and there should be | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
national minimum standards set out in law. They would say that all | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
councils have to provide free social care to adults with substantial | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
needs. That means people who can't eat, wash or dress independently and | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
for whom there would be a significant risk to their well-being | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
if they did not have care. Most councils do this already. This would | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
simplify the system and make it more consistent. But everything hangs on | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
how you precisely define substantial needs. Some councils are saying the | :20:16. | :20:20. | |
government has set the bar far too high to stop potentially 100,000 | :20:20. | :20:25. | |
people, who have moderate needs, might have some of their care cut. | :20:25. | :20:29. | |
The government says it is nonsense. Equally some councils say the bar is | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
too low and they might have to pay more for care. Either way it is the | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
start of a process and there will be a long consultation. The result | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
could have a huge impact on a lot of people. | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
After a decade at the helm, Sir Mervyn King stepped down as governor | :20:46. | :20:51. | |
of the Bank of England. He has handed the batten onto Mark Carney, | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
who was until recently governor of the bank of Canada. He will be the | :20:58. | :21:04. | |
first foreigner to lead the bank of England in its 300 year history. We | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
have been to Toronto to consider why some consider him to be the | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
financial rock star of his age. It is not hard to sell Canada as a | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
holiday destination. In the past few years, its economy has been a lot | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
right than ours as well. No wonder George Osborne would want to bring a | :21:21. | :21:26. | |
piece of that Canadian magic to the UK, is dealing its central bank | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
chief, Mark Carney. In five years Canada's economy has grown by nearly | :21:30. | :21:36. | |
5%, while Britain's has shrunk by nearly 2%. Inflation has averaged | :21:36. | :21:43. | |
just over 1.7% here, and paired with 3.2% in Britain. I asked the finance | :21:43. | :21:45. | |
minister who appointed him whether Mark Carney deserved all of the | :21:45. | :21:53. | |
credit. When the crisis came into thousand and eight, he was very | :21:53. | :21:59. | |
effective -- in 2008. Were you cross with George Osborne full healing | :21:59. | :22:07. | |
him? Mark and I had talked so I was not shocked, but I was surprised. | :22:07. | :22:17. | |
:22:17. | :22:17. | ||
the stealing him. He told me in this office that he had decided to go. | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
Mark Carney can't take all the credit for what has happened in | :22:20. | :22:24. | |
Canada but he seems to have won over the press. If you read the articles | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
that were written on his last day, calling him the best central bank | :22:27. | :22:32. | |
governor Canada ever had, a financial rock star, even the Wayne | :22:32. | :22:38. | |
Gretzky of central banking. In case you were wondering, Wayne Gretzky | :22:38. | :22:42. | |
was a famous Canadian ice hockey player in the 1990s, when the | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
country was going through what we are going through now. Years of | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
austerity and slow growth, while the government got a handle on its debt. | :22:50. | :22:54. | |
It was painful at the time but paid off in 2008 because the government | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
could afford to go all out supporting the economy. Canada was | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
also helped by having old-fashioned banks. In the boom years, they were | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
teased in Wall Street for being too cautious. Not any more. We never had | :23:09. | :23:12. | |
the same crisis of confidence that you had in the United Kingdom and | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
part of it was because the banks had the ability to lend money and wanted | :23:16. | :23:19. | |
to lend money because economic growth was not as severe and the | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
banks were not in very strong financial shape. None of that was | :23:25. | :23:29. | |
Mark Carney's doing but cutting interest rates was and he gets | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
credit for doing it early and often. The bank of Canada under Mark Carney | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
got interest rates down to very low levels early in the crisis, and kept | :23:37. | :23:43. | |
them there. The big difference is that here in Canada, that policy has | :23:43. | :23:45. | |
worked and has got credit flowing through the economy and supported | :23:45. | :23:53. | |
the recovery. But even that success has brought its own problems. A lot | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
of that money flowed into rising house prices. It helped give the | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
economy more of a feel-good factor but even estate agents are worried | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
that prices have risen too far, too fast. They took advantage of it, | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
they were thinking positive and some of them are feeling the pinch, there | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
is a little increase in interest rate, the change in the economy. I | :24:14. | :24:21. | |
hope I am wrong and they don't have to pay the price. Maybe Mark Carney | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
is lucky as well as clever, leaving Canada when things were starting to | :24:24. | :24:29. | |
slow down, but good luck is another thing that George Osborne is surely | :24:29. | :24:35. | |
keen to bring to the UK. Hopes of British excess at Wimbledon | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
were kept alive today after Andy Murray and Laura Robson made it | :24:39. | :24:49. | |
:24:49. | :24:51. | ||
through to their next round stash British day. Outside, hundreds | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
huddled on the Hill, while inside under the Centre Court roof, they | :24:55. | :25:01. | |
roared on the home hopes. Andy Murray was hoping this week of | :25:01. | :25:08. | |
upsets His opponent, Tommy Robredo, is no pushover, but Murray was soon | :25:08. | :25:15. | |
pulling the strings. Cool, calm and clinical committee produced a | :25:15. | :25:24. | |
masterclass in pinpoint precision. -- clinical, he produced a | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
masterclass. The result was inevitable. In his three matches so | :25:29. | :25:39. | |
:25:39. | :25:45. | ||
far, Murray is still yet to drop a fans, Andy Murray safely through to | :25:45. | :25:49. | |
the second week, his title chances have never looked better. People are | :25:49. | :25:53. | |
putting even more pressure on me because of how the draw has worked | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
out but I have just got to try to stay focused, not worry about that | :25:57. | :26:03. | |
stay focused, not worry about that stuff, but it is hard. Earlier, | :26:03. | :26:06. | |
British fans had plenty to cheer thanks to 19-year-old Laura Robson. | :26:06. | :26:11. | |
She slotted aside Mariana Duque-Marino with astonishing poise | :26:11. | :26:18. | |
and punishing power. Robson walloped her way to victory in barely an | :26:18. | :26:27. | |
hour. Straight sets and a standing ovation for Robson, through to the | :26:27. | :26:30. | |
third round on a wave of home third round on a wave of home | :26:30. | :26:36. | |
support. It is a big win for me, any match on Centre Court is a big one. | :26:36. | :26:39. | |
It was a great atmosphere and the roof being closed makes it louder so | :26:39. | :26:44. |
