:01:39. > :01:41.News At Six. A Royal Marine has been convicted of
:01:42. > :01:46.murdering an injured Afghan insurgent, shooting him in the chest
:01:47. > :01:49.at close range. A military court heard how the Marine admitted to his
:01:50. > :01:52.colleagues he'd just broken the Geneva Convention and urged them to
:01:53. > :01:55.keep it secret. Three Marines, whose identities have not been revealed,
:01:56. > :02:01.were on trial, all charged with murder. In court they were referred
:02:02. > :02:04.to only as Marines A, B, and C. They are all from 42 Commando, which lost
:02:05. > :02:07.seven men during its tour of duty. While Marine A was found guilty of
:02:08. > :02:11.murder, the other two were acquitted. Graphic footage and audio
:02:12. > :02:15.from one of the Marines' helmet camera was played in court, showing
:02:16. > :02:17.how the Afghan died two years ago. Caroline Wyatt is at the court for
:02:18. > :02:38.us now. Without the camera mounted on the
:02:39. > :02:42.helmet, what happened in this field would have buried forever. The
:02:43. > :02:47.insurgent's body has never been found, his identity known only to
:02:48. > :02:52.the villagers who left a memorial in these fields. These stills from the
:02:53. > :02:58.video that ultimately convicted the 39-year-old Sergeant, known as
:02:59. > :03:03.Marine A, of murder. What we have heard over the last two weeks is not
:03:04. > :03:06.consistent with the ethos, values and standards of the Royal Marines.
:03:07. > :03:10.It was a truly shocking and appalling aberration. It should not
:03:11. > :03:16.have happened and it should never happen again. This audio was a small
:03:17. > :03:21.part of what the board, or military jury, heard in court, as all three
:03:22. > :03:25.Royal Marines discussed what to do with the wounded enemy fighter, by
:03:26. > :03:35.now a prisoner of war, as they dragged him across the field.
:03:36. > :03:40.The camera switched off and back on again, and then a shot could be
:03:41. > :04:03.heard, fired by Marine A. Marine C, who was found not guilty,
:04:04. > :04:08.also kept a journal in which he revealed how he felt about the
:04:09. > :04:12.killing. The military jury was made up of the men's peers from the Royal
:04:13. > :04:17.Marines and Royal Navy, who decided only the man who fired the fatal
:04:18. > :04:22.shot was guilty of murder, not the two more junior Marines, who now
:04:23. > :04:29.return to their units. That was the incident a one-off, or only unique
:04:30. > :04:31.in being captured on film? British troops pride themselves on
:04:32. > :04:35.maintaining high standards of discipline, and in general that is
:04:36. > :04:40.true. One of the problems is that it is not just a slip on behalf of one
:04:41. > :04:43.or two people. Increasingly, the conditions of modern
:04:44. > :04:49.counterinsurgency make these events would be more frequent than we would
:04:50. > :04:53.like to believe. British forces have been fighting a counterinsurgency
:04:54. > :04:58.campaign in Helmand for many years, against an enemy that takes few
:04:59. > :05:02.prisoners. It is a one-off, in historical terms, and it should be
:05:03. > :05:07.seen as that. Furthermore, what it should also be seen is that due
:05:08. > :05:13.process of law has been applied, and those standards, of which we are so
:05:14. > :05:20.proud, have been maintained, because of the prosecution. On that tour of
:05:21. > :05:24.duty, the men saw seven comrades killed, and this Sunday the nation
:05:25. > :05:29.will remember all of those who fought and died in Helmand. But
:05:30. > :05:33.today, the jury was clear. What happened that September in
:05:34. > :05:38.Afghanistan was murder. We can talk to Caroline now. What
:05:39. > :05:45.are the likely repercussions of the verdict for the Armed Forces? In
:05:46. > :05:48.practical terms, Marines B and C have gone back to their units and
:05:49. > :05:53.what happens to them will be up to their commanders. The anonymity the
:05:54. > :05:58.dash the anonymity orders have still not been lifted. Marine A E will be
:05:59. > :06:02.sentenced. For the Armed Forces more generally, I suspect even more
:06:03. > :06:06.training on prisoner handling, what to do with prisoners of war, the
:06:07. > :06:09.Geneva Convention and all of that, following this particular case,
:06:10. > :06:13.which I think shocked many in the Armed Forces, who believed they had
:06:14. > :06:18.the training right, until they saw the video map but also a video which
:06:19. > :06:21.brought to people back here at home some of the more brutal realities of
:06:22. > :06:30.the war on the front line in Helmand.
:06:31. > :06:34.There is hope of a breakthrough in talks about Iran's nuclear programme
:06:35. > :06:38.after the US Secretary of State, William Hague and other foreign
:06:39. > :06:40.ministers arrived in Geneva for discussions with their Iranian
:06:41. > :06:44.counterparts. John Kerry has played down the chances of striking a deal
:06:45. > :06:47.after decades of hostility, but there is increasing optimism that
:06:48. > :06:52.Iran might limit its nuclear ambitions, which it insists are
:06:53. > :07:01.peaceful, in exchange for lifting of sanctions. Jeremy Bowen is in
:07:02. > :07:04.Geneva. Is a deal likely? If the Iranians get the kind of assurances
:07:05. > :07:08.they want about their right to enrich uranium at a certain level,
:07:09. > :07:15.they might be able to get a deal. That certainly appears to be the
:07:16. > :07:18.direction of travel. When the newly elected President of Iran was waging
:07:19. > :07:22.a charm offensive at the UN in September in New York, a lot of
:07:23. > :07:26.people said the proof of the pudding would be these negotiations about
:07:27. > :07:29.the nuclear issue, which would show if the Iranians were serious. As far
:07:30. > :07:33.as people we are talking to on the western side are concerned, they
:07:34. > :07:39.believe they are serious about doing a deal. The Israelis are very
:07:40. > :07:42.sceptical. President Obama has been reassuring the Israelis, saying he
:07:43. > :07:45.would not allow Iran to get a nuclear weapons. But the fact that
:07:46. > :07:53.they are even talking is enough to make the Israelis worried.
:07:54. > :07:56.This was the confirmation that the talks were serious. Foreign Minister
:07:57. > :08:00.is of the big Western powers, led by the US Secretary of State, John
:08:01. > :08:04.Kerry, diverted aeroplanes and cancelled meetings to fly into
:08:05. > :08:09.Geneva. They came because there seems to be a real chance to end the
:08:10. > :08:14.slow burning but attention a catastrophic face-off over Iran's
:08:15. > :08:18.nuclear plans. At times in the last you years, it has looked close to
:08:19. > :08:24.causing another Middle East war. Now, there are hopes of an
:08:25. > :08:27.agreement. But given this history of Iranians relation is with the West,
:08:28. > :08:31.this is a sensitive issue, and the Americans, conscious of deep
:08:32. > :08:34.suspicion at home and in Israel about Iran's motives, are doing all
:08:35. > :08:40.that they can to manage expectations. I want to emphasise
:08:41. > :08:45.there are still some very important issues on the table that are
:08:46. > :08:51.unresolved. It is important for those to be properly, thoroughly
:08:52. > :08:56.addressed. I want to emphasise there is not an agreement at this point in
:08:57. > :09:01.time. The Iranians Foreign Minister, sitting next to the EU's Lady
:09:02. > :09:07.Ashton, is making breakthroughs here partly because Iran's supreme leader
:09:08. > :09:11.has authorised more flexibility. Any deal in Geneva, if it happens, might
:09:12. > :09:16.just be a first step to a wider agreement. The West wants
:09:17. > :09:21.restrictions on Iran's uranium enrichment programme. Iran says it
:09:22. > :09:26.is for peaceful nuclear energy. The West says it could be used to make a
:09:27. > :09:32.bomb. Iran wants an end to economic sanctions, which have caused
:09:33. > :09:35.hardship and political this content. Optimists say diplomatic success in
:09:36. > :09:41.this quiet town might help break the international deadlock over Syria.
:09:42. > :09:45.An attempt to mount a Syrian Geneva peace conference has just failed. In
:09:46. > :09:53.Israel, the Prime Minister, who compares Iran's rulers to the Nazis,
:09:54. > :09:56.leads the pessimists. They are not reducing their nuclear enrichment
:09:57. > :10:03.capability, so it Iran of the century, and the international
:10:04. > :10:08.community got a bad deal. -- Iran got the deal of the century. But
:10:09. > :10:12.that did not punch of a mood. Iran's Foreign Minister was driven
:10:13. > :10:20.off to an evening of meetings. Talks go on. If they do manage to make an
:10:21. > :10:27.agreement, and it is not a certainty by any means, then it will have to
:10:28. > :10:31.be sold to domestic publics as well, especially in Iran and the United
:10:32. > :10:34.States, and especially in the US Congress, where they are very skip
:10:35. > :10:40.to call about Iran's intentions and what it might do for Israel's
:10:41. > :10:43.Security in particular. But the talks go on and will go on through
:10:44. > :10:49.Saturday and perhaps even through the rest of the weekend as well.
:10:50. > :10:51.One of the strongest storms ever recorded, Typhoon Haiyan, has torn

:10:59. > :11:04.authorities, 12 million people are at risk. When it hit land it whipped

:13:01. > :13:03.could be unprecedented. One United Nations official told me hundreds of
:13:04. > :13:10.thousands of homes could have damaged or destroyed. Already, many
:13:11. > :13:14.families here have lost everything, but it may be days before we know

:13:24. > :13:26.lost. Almost a fifth of the NHS maternity budget in England is being
:13:27. > :13:30.spent on insurance for clinical negligence, the equivalent of ?700
:13:31. > :13:34.for every baby born, according to figures from the spending watchdog,
:13:35. > :13:39.the National Audit Office. It called for more midwives, but the

:14:00. > :14:03.births has increased by almost a quarter in the last decade and is
:14:04. > :14:08.currently at its highest level in 40 years. More births, with more
:14:09. > :14:10.complications. We have an increased complexity of the mothers
:14:11. > :14:16.delivering, some through patient choice, they are choosing to deliver
:14:17. > :14:19.when they are older. Some, it is through a more obese population.

:14:25. > :14:28.successfully had a pregnancy before. Failures of care in maternity
:14:29. > :14:31.services can have catastrophic and expensive consequences. Each birth
:14:32. > :14:38.in England costs the NHS around ?3700. Of that, ?700 is spent on
:14:39. > :14:44.insurance against claims for medical negligence. Individual claims have
:14:45. > :14:49.increased by 80% of the last five years, a similar picture to the rest
:14:50. > :14:53.of the NHS. For Louis Rodriguez, who lives in Kent, litigation was

:15:30. > :15:32.babies in and was stillborn or died shortly after birth. But that is
:15:33. > :15:37.still not as good as other parts of the UK. Negligence lawyers say that
:15:38. > :15:42.the NHS must invest in staff. I think they need more midwives, I
:15:43. > :15:47.think more consultants need to be on the ward to deal with difficult
:15:48. > :15:52.cases. I also think lessons need to be learned. More than 80% of women
:15:53. > :15:59.say the care they received during birth and maternity is excellent or
:16:00. > :16:01.very good. But there are still unexplained differences in the
:16:02. > :16:07.quality of care between different trusts. Ministers say more midwives
:16:08. > :16:10.than ever before are being trained. But they accept there is still too
:16:11. > :16:15.much variation between the very best and the rest. Giving birth is not
:16:16. > :16:16.without risk. But it is worth remembering that the vast majority
:16:17. > :16:27.of babies are born safely. Tomorrow, China's leaders will meet
:16:28. > :16:31.in Beijing to set the Communist Party's economic agenda for the next
:16:32. > :16:35.decade, amid promises of unprecedented reform and profound
:16:36. > :16:39.change. It is a significant moment for President Xi Jinping, who came
:16:40. > :16:44.to power last year. The scale of possible change is daunting, and so
:16:45. > :16:52.is potential resistance. For discussion are opening up China's
:16:53. > :16:59.financial sector rural land reform. Damian Grammaticas has been to
:17:00. > :17:03.Yunnan and Shanghai. The skyline of Shanghai. It is where
:17:04. > :17:09.you see China's incredible rise. An economic story, unique in history.
:17:10. > :17:15.Enormous wealth created in a shift from communism to capitalism. Now,
:17:16. > :17:19.the breakneck growth is slowing. So, to reinvigorate it, China's
:17:20. > :17:25.leader Xi Jinping is promising unprecedented reforms. Outside the
:17:26. > :17:29.cities where almost half the population live, they are urgently
:17:30. > :17:35.needed. The job of shedding state controls is only part complete. The
:17:36. > :17:37.issue here is land. Private ownership of land is still banned,
:17:38. > :17:43.pitting farmers against the government. This is the South West,
:17:44. > :17:51.people fighting to stop the land being taken from them. China's
:17:52. > :17:58.farmers, like here in Guangxi village, can only work the land.
:17:59. > :18:01.They cannot sell them. They are shut out of the new economy. The
:18:02. > :18:04.authorities wanted to build a giant tourist village here. Seizing land
:18:05. > :18:10.is the main way they make money, so the tax system also needs reform.
:18:11. > :18:18.People from the area soon heard that we were in Guangxi. They hurried to
:18:19. > :18:24.the village, wanting us to hear that complaints as well. Everyone was
:18:25. > :18:28.about land rights. It's an enormous problem, it affects hundreds of
:18:29. > :18:30.millions of people. What is blocking changes the developers and local
:18:31. > :18:38.governments that benefit from all of this. TRANSLATION: If Xi Jinping
:18:39. > :18:43.ignores us, what can we do but rise up? If they kill one, there will be
:18:44. > :18:47.another in their place. Xi Jinping could really help farmers if he
:18:48. > :18:51.abolished the residence permits that tie them to the land. But in the
:18:52. > :18:56.cities, they fear a flood of poor migrants will take their jobs and
:18:57. > :19:00.add to the burden on hospitals and schools. One major reforms are
:19:01. > :19:04.needed here as well. China's communist leaders still control the
:19:05. > :19:07.banks and the financial system. The financial crisis in the West makes
:19:08. > :19:12.them cautious. They say, well, we have seen how well you guys have
:19:13. > :19:15.done this in Europe and the United States and we are really nervous
:19:16. > :19:20.about giving too much power to bankers. I think the state is still
:19:21. > :19:23.going to control all of the significant institutions. They are
:19:24. > :19:29.just going to keep pushing them to operate more on market principles.
:19:30. > :19:36.Now China is richer, reforming is harder. Communist elites are wealthy
:19:37. > :19:39.and powerful. Not want to lose out. So the leaders talk of change, but
:19:40. > :19:43.they will not be radical, they will tread carefully and relax their grip
:19:44. > :19:46.gradually. We have often reported on the
:19:47. > :19:50.so-called glass ceiling faced by British women in the boardroom.
:19:51. > :19:54.Now, new research has found numbers are creeping up. Women now account
:19:55. > :19:59.for 18 cent of ward positions in the 100 largest listed companies. That
:20:00. > :20:05.is still below target levels. For the top job, there are only two
:20:06. > :20:08.female chief executives. One company making significant inroads,
:20:09. > :20:13.particularly in finance, is India. No fewer than eight major banks are
:20:14. > :20:16.led by women. Reeta Chakrabarti has been to Mumbai to find out why women
:20:17. > :20:22.there are succeeding in senior roles.
:20:23. > :20:25.Banking has been one of the engines driving the Indian economy. Its
:20:26. > :20:28.growth has seen a startling rise in the success of women. Not just on
:20:29. > :20:37.the shop floor, but right at the very top. Chanda Kochhar heads of
:20:38. > :20:40.India's second largest bank. She oversees 50,000 people and a network
:20:41. > :20:49.of thousands of branches. Women like her have done well, so why? The
:20:50. > :20:53.banks are making a decision based on merit and they are picking what they
:20:54. > :20:58.think is the best candidate at that time, without any inhibition of
:20:59. > :21:05.whether the candidate is male or female. As banking has grown, so has
:21:06. > :21:09.female talent. ICICI, since the 1980s, has nurtured promising
:21:10. > :21:13.women. There are now eight major banks headed by female executives.
:21:14. > :21:18.They include Shakka Sharma, boss of a multi-billion pound 's global
:21:19. > :21:23.bank. She says that Indian women are supported by domestic help and the
:21:24. > :21:29.extended family. I think family support is a huge distinction for
:21:30. > :21:34.us. My mum, my mother-in-law, even my father or father-in-law, they
:21:35. > :21:39.would come by and help me when I was stuck in a situation. These other

:21:57. > :22:00.at home? I want to work and make a contribution. Women are surely
:22:01. > :22:04.breaking the glass ceiling. It is more about the talent you have and
:22:05. > :22:11.less about social constraints. It is exactly 20 years... India's first
:22:12. > :22:14.female banking boss was in the 1990s. She said it was a lonely
:22:15. > :22:19.business being the only woman at the top. Banking was always seen as a
:22:20. > :22:23.good option for women. Women joined because it was a dream job for them,
:22:24. > :22:29.you know? The family did not object to them. They went to the office,
:22:30. > :22:33.they were very happy, meeting so many people. Dealing with money. It
:22:34. > :22:38.was glamour. Women have always worked in India. But their rise in
:22:39. > :22:41.the last two decades, in banking at least, has proved a phenomenal
:22:42. > :22:47.success. All the more remarkable, given the traditional conservative
:22:48. > :22:50.attitudes towards women in parts of the country. With much of the
:22:51. > :22:54.population still lacking basic education, those attitudes will not
:22:55. > :22:58.disappear soon. But the educated middle class is growing fast. It now
:22:59. > :23:02.equals around 250 million people. With numbers like that, India's
:23:03. > :23:08.female corporate revolution might only just have begun.
:23:09. > :23:14.The BBC's former political editor John Cole, one of the best known
:23:15. > :23:19.journalists on Radeon television during the Thatcher era, has died.
:23:20. > :23:23.He was 85. A newspaper man turned broadcaster, he led a little

:23:32. > :23:36.his life and the career of one of the defining journalists on the

:23:44. > :23:50.The accident and the insight, both instantly familiar. The really
:23:51. > :23:56.intriguing bit is the position of two people. Sir Geoffrey Howe... Is
:23:57. > :24:01.Westminster still reverberating from the shock of his departure? A
:24:02. > :24:04.journalist from the age of just 17, when he joined the Belfast
:24:05. > :24:11.Telegraph, John Cole was schooled in the ways of politics of the trade
:24:12. > :24:16.unions, writing for The Guardian and The Observer. He brought that
:24:17. > :24:20.understanding to the BBC coverage of Thatcherism, union unrest and then
:24:21. > :24:24.John Major's government, as a Young Conservative advisor from the time
:24:25. > :24:31.recalls. My strong as memory is of him in the 1992 election. I was
:24:32. > :24:35.working in the offices, relatively junior. He was this tight and not
:24:36. > :24:41.the BBC. Everybody respected his word. He was an extraordinary
:24:42. > :24:46.broadcaster with great insights. After a bomb exploded at Margaret
:24:47. > :24:50.Thatcher's hotel in Brighton, she sought him out amongst waiting
:24:51. > :24:56.reporters. You hear about these atrocities, these bonds. You don't
:24:57. > :25:02.expect them to happen to you. But life must go on, as usual. And your
:25:03. > :25:08.conference will go on? The conference will go on, as usual. His
:25:09. > :25:13.tales of Downing Street intrigues... I have resigned from
:25:14. > :25:20.the Cabinet and I will make a full statement later today. Were not
:25:21. > :25:25.easily forgotten, even by those at the centre of the story. You cannot
:25:26. > :25:29.be in front line politics and not remember John Cole. He was a top
:25:30. > :25:36.class, they do. But then he also had that accent, his own sort of
:25:37. > :25:40.Hallmark, if you like. Overtime, he began to redefine political
:25:41. > :25:44.coverage. John really changed the way that politics was covered on the
:25:45. > :25:47.BBC. He understood, even though he came from print journalism, that if
:25:48. > :25:52.you were to engage listeners and viewers, you had to be very
:25:53. > :25:55.personable. He used everything. He used his wonderful voice, his
:25:56. > :26:05.insight into politics, anecdote, humour, mischief. I appeared on
:26:06. > :26:10.Radio 4... His fame and his quirks did not go unnoticed by the satirist
:26:11. > :26:14.'s at Spitting Image. They irritated him, but the informal style that
:26:15. > :26:19.they mocked still influences the way his successors report Westminster
:26:20. > :26:25.today. John Cole, who has died aged 85.
:26:26. > :26:29.That is all from us. Newsnight is starting on BBC Two in a moment.
:26:30. > :26:33.They will be interviewing the director of the Star Trek films and
:26:34. > :26:34.the man chosen to rehabilitate Star Wars. On BBC One we join
