:09:08. > :09:12.Let's talk about the Prime Minister first of all. What did you make of
:09:13. > :09:16.the way he set out his defence today? I think they've moved past
:09:17. > :09:20.the panic stage that we've seen in the last week or so. For David
:09:21. > :09:23.Cameron, this has been a very significant political bruising. I
:09:24. > :09:26.think those bruises and scars, even, will take some time to fade. Not
:09:27. > :09:30.least because of the depth of feeling. We saw that in the Commons
:09:31. > :09:35.today. Real anger on both sides over this whole debate. Also because this
:09:36. > :09:39.row has suggested that David Cameron's grip isn't quite what it
:09:40. > :09:43.was, when he's trying to run the Government as normal and run the EU
:09:44. > :09:46.referendum campaign at the same time. That's a sense that's
:09:47. > :09:52.lingering around here tonight. This is not just about what happened but
:09:53. > :09:54.also about his own mishandling. That feeling might hang around for some
:09:55. > :09:59.time. Do you think in the years to come, that we will look back at this
:10:00. > :10:03.moment as a significant change, if you like, in the kind of culture of
:10:04. > :10:09.openness? I think a precedent has been set. It's almost impossible now
:10:10. > :10:12.to imagine any future Prime Minister or Chancellor, any future Mayor of
:10:13. > :10:15.London, future First Minister of Scotland being able to keep their
:10:16. > :10:19.tax return private if they wanted to. There will inevitably be some
:10:20. > :10:24.MPs who choose to follow them and put their private financial details
:10:25. > :10:28.out in the open. But so far, I say so far, it seems the group to whom
:10:29. > :10:34.that will apply, senior politicians, the most senior, that seems to be
:10:35. > :10:36.quite limited. But again, I think there's probably a creeping
:10:37. > :10:41.inevitability about this over the much longer term. I don't think
:10:42. > :10:43.we're going to see a sudden rush of transparency with everything
:10:44. > :10:49.spilling out into the open. But there is a sense, in my mind, that
:10:50. > :10:53.the sell-by date of politicians' financial privacy just got a lot
:10:54. > :10:55.closer. Lure ya, thanks very much. -- Laura, thanks very much.
:10:56. > :10:58.The Government says it's considering investing in Britain's
:10:59. > :11:00.biggest steel plant, at Port Talbot in South Wales,
:11:01. > :11:05.There are thousands of jobs at stake, as the Tata Group
:11:06. > :11:07.is selling its steel business in the UK.
:11:08. > :11:09.Tata has already announced a deal which could save thousands
:11:10. > :11:12.of jobs in Scunthorpe, following talks with an investment
:11:13. > :11:18.They want to buy the plant and rebrand it as British Steel,
:11:19. > :11:24.as our business editor Simon Jack reports.
:11:25. > :11:31.A company which has played a key part in all these British
:11:32. > :11:36.achievements. Today, we witnessed the rebirth of British Steel, in
:11:37. > :11:41.name at least. After two years of uncertainty, a deal was struck to
:11:42. > :11:46.save and rebrand some of Tata Steel's UK operations with a blast
:11:47. > :11:51.from the past. The news of a more secure future for one part of Tata's
:11:52. > :11:55.empire was met with relief at the factory gate. Good news. Good news
:11:56. > :11:59.for the town. Good news for Scunthorpe itself. Hopefully the
:12:00. > :12:05.Government will back us as well. I get to keep my house and the car!
:12:06. > :12:11.Positive. Like the new name by the way. The deal will see an investment
:12:12. > :12:15.of ?400 million, some funded by Government loans, it will secure
:12:16. > :12:20.4800 jobs at Scunthorpe and smaller sites, but there's no such thing a
:12:21. > :12:26.free lunch. Workers will have to vote on a 3% pay cut and reduced
:12:27. > :12:30.pension benefits. Faced with few alternatives, union leaders were
:12:31. > :12:34.today urging members to accept Greybull's terms. Hopefully because
:12:35. > :12:39.we've recommended it, it's the best deal we can come with, we need that
:12:40. > :12:42.future and a yes on them vote slips. A huge relief today for workers in
:12:43. > :12:46.scun Thorps and sites around the UK. But what about the rest of the UK
:12:47. > :12:50.steel operation? The question here at Tata headquarters is - how
:12:51. > :12:54.patient will the board be in finding a buyer for the rest of the
:12:55. > :13:00.business? Today we've started the process. We will run it as a global
:13:01. > :13:06.process, reaching out to a wide universe of buyers. We've got to
:13:07. > :13:09.first hear back from them, before deciding what kind of timelines we
:13:10. > :13:12.will run. Are we talking weeks or months? We've already passed a
:13:13. > :13:18.couple of weeks from the announcement. So people should get
:13:19. > :13:23.comfort from the fact that we will give everything its due time. Port
:13:24. > :13:26.Talbot is losing millions a week. The Scunthorpe deal took six months.
:13:27. > :13:31.So today the Government acknowledged it may have to part fund this rescue
:13:32. > :13:35.as well. I've been in contact with potential buyers making clear that
:13:36. > :13:40.the Government stands ready to help. This includes looking at the
:13:41. > :13:45.possibility of co-investing with a buyer on commercial terms. The
:13:46. > :13:48.Government calls this option a last resort. As time and money
:13:49. > :13:50.evaporates, it looks more like a necessity.

:26:17. > :26:19.all the fear they inspire, they are incredibly vulnerable. A few years

:26:27. > :26:31.like a military operation. The big threat is from well armed poachers.
:26:32. > :26:36.And the guards are often outgunned. In the markets of Asia, tiger parts
