:00:25. > :00:33.come clean about claims that 40,000 people could be made homeless by

:01:01. > :01:04.Good evening. Britain is to provide emergency aid

:01:04. > :01:09.to over a million people in Ethiopia in danger of malnutrition

:01:09. > :01:12.and starvation after one of the worst droughts in decades. The UN's

:01:12. > :01:18.humanitarian affairs chief, Lady Amos, has also called for a greater

:01:18. > :01:22.international response to the crisis. Much of the Horn of Africa

:01:22. > :01:25.and parts of East Africa have less water than at any time in the last

:01:25. > :01:30.60 years. Aid agencies say ten million people in Djibouti,

:01:30. > :01:37.Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia and Uganda are affected. Here's our world

:01:37. > :01:42.affairs correspondent Mike Wooldridge.

:01:42. > :01:47.This woman arrives at the world's largest re-Jew camp with her --

:01:47. > :01:54.refugee camp with her six children. They're among more than 60,000

:01:54. > :01:57.people who have crossed the border into northern Kenya this year.

:01:57. > :02:00.The main reason is drought. We don't have food. We had nothing to

:02:00. > :02:05.eat. People started to die, so we fled.

:02:05. > :02:09.And the growing malnutrition among the children eplgs is -- especially

:02:09. > :02:13.is all too evident at the camp. Of the ten million people now affected

:02:13. > :02:19.by drought across the region, close to three million are in conflict-

:02:19. > :02:22.ridden Somalia alone. Today, the UN has not only called for urgent

:02:22. > :02:27.action but also challenged donor countries to put aside fears that

:02:28. > :02:32.aid will fall into the hand of is Islamist extremists or warlords and

:02:32. > :02:37.Britain has announced funding for emergency food relief in Ethiopia.

:02:37. > :02:41.The particular focus is to try and stop what is an emerging

:02:41. > :02:46.catastrophe taking place in the Horn of Africa, two years now

:02:46. > :02:49.during which there has been no rains and a steady drought and this

:02:49. > :02:56.specific intervention by Britain is designed to make sure that over the

:02:56. > :03:00.next three critical months we are able to feed 1.3 million people.

:03:00. > :03:05.Moving livestock in search of pasture isn't necessarily giving

:03:05. > :03:10.them any greater greater chance of survival, many animals have died,

:03:10. > :03:15.crops failed and cereal prices have shot up. We should never be in the

:03:15. > :03:17.position where the situation gets to it was in Somalia of the past,

:03:18. > :03:21.we know things are happening now and we can provide food and

:03:21. > :03:27.assistance and we need to be doing that urgently. And here in this

:03:27. > :03:30.part of Uganda the crisis adds to notoriously chronic difficulties in

:03:30. > :03:33.overcoming malnutrition. Taken together another severe test

:03:33. > :03:42.looming for an ever growing number of families and for the

:03:42. > :03:44.international community. We can talk now to Ben Brown on the

:03:44. > :03:46.Kenya-Somalia border, at what's become the largest refugee camp in

:03:46. > :03:51.the world. Ben, from what you have seen just

:03:51. > :03:56.how bad is the situation getting? Well, we have been driving around

:03:56. > :04:01.this drought area and what we see everywhere is the carcasses of dead

:04:01. > :04:06.animals that families here rely on and dead crops as well. The UN are

:04:06. > :04:11.saying this is the worst drought for about 60 years. They've had two

:04:11. > :04:14.consecutive years where there hasn't been enough rain. People are

:04:14. > :04:17.increasingly desperate here. The UN stressing this isn't a famine yet,

:04:17. > :04:21.it's important to underline that, but it is what they call an

:04:21. > :04:24.emergency and they're saying that it is a rapidly deteriorating

:04:24. > :04:27.situation, so they're saying the world needs to wake up to this.

:04:27. > :04:31.They have an early warning system that aid workers are telling me

:04:31. > :04:34.what's the point of an early warning system if the world doesn't

:04:34. > :04:38.take notice of it and here at this camp we are seeing something like

:04:38. > :04:41.1,000 people every day streaming in here from Somalia from the drought,

:04:42. > :04:46.from the fighting there, many of them are children. They've been

:04:46. > :04:55.walking for weeks, they're desperately weak and mal nourished

:04:55. > :04:58.and very vulnerable to disease. Thank you.

:04:58. > :05:01.Labour has called on the Government to say whether it's been straight

:05:01. > :05:03.with the country over the impact of planned changes to benefits. It

:05:03. > :05:07.emerged last night that Downing Street was warned six months ago,

:05:07. > :05:11.that a �500 a week cap on all benefits could lead to up to 40,000

:05:11. > :05:15.people being made homeless and end up costing the taxpayer money. Our

:05:16. > :05:21.political correspondent Gary O'Donoghue has the details.

:05:21. > :05:25.This is affluent Chelsea in London. If you live in social housing just

:05:25. > :05:30.across the road the Government's new �500 a week cap on benefits

:05:30. > :05:34.could mean that even flats here are too expensive. The Government, they

:05:34. > :05:39.do help us with rent and everything else, but the money really that you

:05:39. > :05:44.take for three children it doesn't even sometimes even cover you to

:05:44. > :05:47.the end of the month. With the benefits they're decimating it to a

:05:47. > :05:50.point where they're going to put people in real poverty. The cap was

:05:50. > :05:54.announced in the autumn and Ministers say it will save large

:05:54. > :05:58.amounts of money from the housing benefit bill. But a leaked document

:05:58. > :06:03.from the communities department, written in January by a civil

:06:03. > :06:07.servant, questions the effects of the cap. It suggests that far from

:06:07. > :06:10.saving �270 million by the end of the parliament, it could end up

:06:10. > :06:15.costing money through greater burdens on local authorities.

:06:15. > :06:19.It also suggests that the benefit cap could mean 40,000 people ending

:06:19. > :06:23.up homeless. And that 23,000 fewer properties would be built for

:06:23. > :06:27.social housing. Sources close to the Communities Secretary, Eric

:06:27. > :06:32.pickles, have distanced him from the letter, insisting he is fully

:06:32. > :06:35.behind the policy. But one housing charity says the impact of a cap

:06:35. > :06:38.will mean more poverty. People tend to initially try and keep it

:06:39. > :06:43.together. Unfortunately, they may get into debt and then there can be

:06:43. > :06:46.a spiral down. Even if we manage to catch people they'll still be

:06:46. > :06:50.moving from their homes and communities. While the document is

:06:50. > :06:53.six months old, that doesn't mean that the concerns are any the less

:06:53. > :06:57.significant. And while sources insist that Eric Pickles didn't

:06:57. > :07:01.write it himself, senior civil servants don't tend to go

:07:01. > :07:05.freeLancing on policy, particularly in relationship to Downing Street.

:07:05. > :07:15.Labour will seek an urgent question here tomorrow and the Speaker who

:07:15. > :07:15.

:07:15. > :07:18.decides these things has been granting a lot of them recently.

:07:18. > :07:21.The Chairman of the BBC Trust, the body which represents licence fee

:07:21. > :07:24.payers, has signalled that there'll be cuts in the pay of senior BBC

:07:24. > :07:27.management. Lord Patten said executive pay is a toxic issue with

:07:27. > :07:30.viewers and listeners and that he wanted the corporation to set an

:07:30. > :07:33.example for other public sector bodies. This report from our media

:07:33. > :07:38.correspondent Torin Douglas. Just weeks after arriving as

:07:38. > :07:44.chairman of the BBC Trust, Lord Patten is preparing for some tough

:07:44. > :07:52.decisions. And he's identified top executive pay as the issue that

:07:52. > :07:56.that still upsets licence fee payers and staff. There is the

:07:57. > :08:01.whole issue of fairness across the board with senior managers getting

:08:01. > :08:07.some deals which don't apply to others. I think we can deal with

:08:07. > :08:10.all that and if we do so we will deal with one of the most toxic

:08:10. > :08:15.reasons for the public's lack of sympathy for the BBC as an

:08:15. > :08:20.institution, even though they like enormously what it does. With the

:08:20. > :08:24.BBC discussing how to make 20% cuts in its total budget, its critics

:08:24. > :08:28.say high executive pay is even harder to justify. It's very hard

:08:28. > :08:33.for the BBC to simultaneously say we have got a lot of pressure on

:08:33. > :08:37.our budget, we are having to run on a shoestring and have to many staff

:08:37. > :08:42.earning well over �100,000 a year. The BBC says it's already cutting

:08:42. > :08:47.top management and pay. Its deputy director general, seen here on the

:08:47. > :08:51.left, has been made redundant as part of a 25% cut in the top

:08:51. > :08:54.management pay bill. With commercial broadcasters able to pay

:08:54. > :09:01.more, some fear this will make it harder for the BBC to attract and

:09:01. > :09:04.keep the best managers. If the BBC can't get the best people, because

:09:04. > :09:08.other broadcasters pay more, you may say well that's just a fact of

:09:08. > :09:12.life. The point is licence payers will not react well if they don't

:09:12. > :09:15.get the best programmes. I think that's cobblers, there are so many

:09:15. > :09:19.people out there who would want to work for an organisation that's

:09:19. > :09:23.much loved, held in huge regard around the world, and people who

:09:23. > :09:28.are coming into it and want to work for the corporation for the right

:09:28. > :09:33.reasons. Lord Patten told Andrew Marr he was looking closely at the

:09:33. > :09:37.ideas of Will Hutton, head of the Work Foundation who is examining

:09:37. > :09:42.Government proposals to measure the pay of top executives as multiples

:09:42. > :09:50.of what their lower paid staff receive. Who runs ITV, what is his

:09:50. > :09:53.multiple, 35-1. Who runs Sky? They're the licence fee payer can

:09:53. > :09:57.see whether or not the men and women at the top of the BBC are

:09:57. > :10:01.poorly paid, about right, or well paid.

:10:01. > :10:11.But for people working at the BBC executive pay isn't the only area

:10:11. > :10:12.

:10:12. > :10:15.where the axe is going to fall as it faces budget cuts of 20%.

:10:15. > :10:18.A man has been killed and two other people injured after being shot

:10:18. > :10:21.outside a pub in Bristol. The attacks happened around 4:00am this

:10:21. > :10:26.morning in the St Pauls area of the city. Police have now arrested a

:10:26. > :10:30.man. Tens of thousands of people were in the area yesterday

:10:30. > :10:40.celebrating the annual carnival. A man has been killed and two other

:10:40. > :10:40.

:10:40. > :11:23.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 43 seconds

:11:23. > :11:27.people injured after being shot What is important, and is one of

:11:27. > :11:31.the things that my colleagues are highlighting just now, is that

:11:31. > :11:36.people may not realise the nature of the risks that people run if

:11:36. > :11:40.children, in particular, become seriously overweight. Almost 20% of

:11:40. > :11:45.ten-year-olds are now overweight in England. Experts predict that by

:11:45. > :11:49.the middle of the century 63% of all children will be obese and say

:11:49. > :11:53.it's their livers this that will take the toll. It's not just

:11:53. > :11:58.alcohol that causes liver disease, being overweight is also linked and

:11:59. > :12:04.it's not about the fat that you can see. The real danger is internal in

:12:04. > :12:09.the fat in and around vital organs and experts say it's a silent

:12:09. > :12:13.killer. The problem about most liver disease is you don't get any

:12:13. > :12:16.symptoms at all all until it's at an advanced stage. In other words,

:12:16. > :12:20.you get cirrhosis, and then you have complications that can arise

:12:20. > :12:25.from the cirrhosis which can be very serious. It's not until that

:12:25. > :12:34.late stage that you are going to get any symptoms at all.

:12:34. > :12:40.Getting children to eat healthy food is often a struggle. What's

:12:40. > :12:46.your favourite food? Chips. What's your favourite fruit? Apple or

:12:46. > :12:49.pear? Apple or pear. Tomorrow sees the launch of

:12:49. > :12:53.national childhood obesity week to raise awareness of this growing

:12:53. > :13:03.problem but doctors are warning that urgent radical change is

:13:03. > :13:03.

:13:03. > :13:07.needed in order to save lives. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are

:13:07. > :13:09.in Quebec City on the latest leg of their first overseas tour as a

:13:10. > :13:11.married couple. Earlier in Montreal there was a small demonstration by

:13:12. > :13:15.anti-monarchy campaigners as William and Kate visited a

:13:15. > :13:21.children's hospital. Our Royal correspondent Nicholas Witchell

:13:21. > :13:25.sent this report. A Sunday morning arrival into Quebec, and this being

:13:25. > :13:32.the heart of French-speaking Canada, a Church service aboard ship with

:13:32. > :13:37.hymns in French. Tricky.

:13:37. > :13:41.The centre of the city was under tight control by police. Anti-

:13:41. > :13:44.monarchy protesters were being challenged by police and Escorted

:13:44. > :13:48.away. If there was any argument, they were arrested.

:13:48. > :13:51.In the end, a group of several hundred demonstraters were

:13:51. > :13:55.allocated an area some distance away.

:13:55. > :14:00.William and Kate came to the city hall, the welcome from those in the

:14:00. > :14:08.square was unquestionably warm. This, of course, is a place where

:14:08. > :14:12.speaking in French really matters. He thanked them for their patience

:14:12. > :14:17.with his accent and said he hoped they would get a chance to know

:14:17. > :14:20.each other over the years. In the distance protesters jeered but in

:14:20. > :14:24.the square William's words were well received. The couple will have

:14:24. > :14:28.got the impression, perhaps a fleeting one, that there are parts

:14:28. > :14:32.of Canada and sections of society which are not supportive of the

:14:32. > :14:36.Crown. Last night in Montreal there was a

:14:36. > :14:40.small but noisy protest protest by people who believe the British

:14:40. > :14:45.Royal Family should not have a special position in Canada. It was

:14:45. > :14:55.a counterpoint, but not an interruption. William and Kate were

:14:55. > :14:56.

:14:56. > :15:00.busy attending a cookery class, French cooking, of course.

:15:00. > :15:03.In Sport, Novak Djokovic is the new Wimbledon champion. The Serb, who's

:15:03. > :15:06.also the world number one, beat last year's winner, Rafael Nadal,

:15:06. > :15:10.to lift the third Grand Slam title of his career. Our sports

:15:10. > :15:13.correspondent James Pearce is at the All England club. The third

:15:13. > :15:18.Grand Slam of his career but the first at Wimbledon, the one he's

:15:18. > :15:22.dreamed of winning since he was a young kid. Novak Djokovic has only

:15:22. > :15:30.lost one match all year and against the defending champion he never

:15:30. > :15:35.really looked like losing today. Wimbledon has been pitched perfect

:15:36. > :15:39.this year, after two weeks of sweat and drama, of champagne and cream

:15:39. > :15:45.this tournament it made it ever so simple, the two best players in the

:15:45. > :15:50.world would fight for the sport's most prestigious Cup. The first set

:15:50. > :15:57.was solid, cagey, the equivalent of boxers circling and jabbing.

:15:57. > :16:02.Djokovic displaying his machine- tool precision. He took the set.

:16:02. > :16:12.Djokovic cut loose in the second, turning acrobatic defence into

:16:12. > :16:13.

:16:13. > :16:20.Nadal is known for his oncourt aggression but it's the war cry of

:16:20. > :16:24.Djokovic you can hear. A double break later the set was his. 6-1.

:16:25. > :16:34.Nadal had had enough, he is by all accounts a nice chap, but he

:16:35. > :16:39.

:16:39. > :16:45.Djokovic tamely netted and handed Nadal a break. A further break

:16:45. > :16:49.later it was the defending champion who had taken the set 6-1.

:16:49. > :16:54.The players traded breaks in the fourth but then the Spanish man of

:16:54. > :16:59.steel melted, handing his opponent three break points. His father, a

:16:59. > :17:09.headache. In two and a a half hours Djokovic's family and President

:17:09. > :17:15.waited for match point. Victory tasted sweet.

:17:15. > :17:19.It's really hard to describe this with any words, except the best day

:17:19. > :17:24.of my life, the most special day. This is my favourite tournament,

:17:24. > :17:30.the tournament I dreamed of winning. For the previous eight years it's

:17:30. > :17:34.been Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal who have dominated Wimbledon. Today,

:17:34. > :17:37.Djokovic announced the arrival of a new power.

:17:37. > :17:43.David Haye has promised to make a decision about his future in the

:17:43. > :17:47.next couple of weeks. Last night he was convincingly beaten by Wladimir

:17:47. > :17:54.Klitschko. Today, our correspondent has been catching up with a man who

:17:54. > :17:58.lost his title in Hamburg. The morning after the fight before.

:17:58. > :18:01.David Haye was trying to keep his chin up and making light of the

:18:01. > :18:06.broken toe that meant he was below his best last night. He always

:18:06. > :18:10.wanted to retire in October on his 31st birthday but perhaps former

:18:10. > :18:16.champions think differently. Yeah, you know, nobody likes to go out on

:18:16. > :18:20.a loss. It hurts. It hurts really bad. But I have to try to dust

:18:20. > :18:23.myself off, and figure out exactly what I am going to do next.

:18:23. > :18:33.Whatever decision I make it has to be quick. It has to be the right

:18:33. > :18:37.

:18:37. > :18:41.one. This was the fight he had waited all his career for. From the

:18:41. > :18:47.first round it was obvious something wasn't quite right in

:18:47. > :18:53.Haye's corner, a pattern emerged with him stupl -- stumbling around

:18:53. > :19:02.the ring. They traded blows deeper into the fight, but Haye became

:19:02. > :19:06.increasingly desperate to land his hay-maker. Haye said he would take

:19:06. > :19:12.Wladimir Klitschko's head off but the only injury was Haye's broken

:19:12. > :19:16.toe. The heavyweight division may be quieter without him but also

:19:16. > :19:20.poorer. David Haye is convinced he could beat Wladimir Klitschko given

:19:20. > :19:23.another chance, he is probably not going to get that chance. He says

:19:23. > :19:29.in the next few weeks he will decide whether or not to retire
