:03:35. > :03:37.

:03:37. > :03:40.women past and present who gave Italy is expected to appoint a new

:03:40. > :03:45.interim Prime Minister this evening following the resignation of the

:03:45. > :03:48.Silvio Berlusconi yesterday. A short while ago, the president

:03:48. > :03:51.suffered -- summoned Mario Monti to the presidential palace where he is

:03:51. > :03:57.expected to give him a mandate to form the next government. His main

:03:57. > :04:04.task will be to implement a passage -- a package of austerity measures.

:04:04. > :04:08.Christian Fraser is in Rome. We are expecting Mario Monti at the

:04:08. > :04:11.presidential palace in the next few minutes. He will be asked to form

:04:11. > :04:15.the next government and select a Cabinet in close consultation with

:04:15. > :04:19.the parties in parliament. Then he must win a confidence vote from

:04:20. > :04:24.both Houses before he can become the next Prime Minister. If I told

:04:24. > :04:26.you that there were 17 motorcades that came to the Palace today

:04:27. > :04:31.carrying house because and party leaders, you will understand that

:04:31. > :04:34.it is very difficult getting agreement in Italian politics. He

:04:34. > :04:40.will gets the mandate but he has only a limited period of time. A

:04:40. > :04:44.warning, there is flash photography in this report.

:04:44. > :04:49.A new day in Italian politics. The Prime Minister in waiting was on

:04:49. > :04:55.his way to church. Mario Monti still retains a low profile, but

:04:55. > :04:58.his mood reflects the optimism many of his countrymen share. He will be

:04:58. > :05:01.of his countrymen share. He will be a leader in stark contrast to

:05:01. > :05:07.Silvio Berlusconi. It well respected economist, he is known as

:05:07. > :05:13.Super Mario for his intellectual rigour. He is president of bergenia

:05:13. > :05:17.University in Milan, renowned for her training Italy's brightest

:05:17. > :05:20.economists. He was a European Commissioner for 10 years,

:05:20. > :05:24.Commissioner for 10 years, developing a reputation as a tough

:05:24. > :05:28.negotiator. He has always been a staunch defender of the Euro.

:05:28. > :05:32.Meanwhile, a procession of party leaders have arrived at the

:05:33. > :05:37.presidential palace. The President is working his way through a

:05:37. > :05:41.gruelling schedule of meetings, trying to secure a working majority

:05:41. > :05:46.for the new interim government. Every party has to think, every

:05:47. > :05:51.political party has to think in the next couple of days what the

:05:51. > :05:55.alternative is. The alternative could be a call for new elections.

:05:55. > :05:59.It is like giving the market an answer, wait until February or

:05:59. > :06:03.March. It would be a disaster. Those who came to watch say they

:06:03. > :06:11.are happy to support an unelected Prime Minister, even though he will

:06:11. > :06:21.raise taxes. We have to do it. Not related pay taxes, but also to

:06:21. > :06:22.

:06:22. > :06:27.reduce the costs of politics, and the waste. Honestly, Mario Monti

:06:27. > :06:32.could be the best. The last meeting of the day was the most important.

:06:32. > :06:38.Last night, Silvio Berlusconi bowed out to the cheers and whistles of

:06:38. > :06:44.the mob. Today, he sent his former justice minister to set out to the

:06:44. > :06:50.party's strict terms. As the biggest in Parliament, they still

:06:50. > :06:56.wield significant power. Mario Monti has a delicate balance to

:06:56. > :07:01.strike. In Brussels, he faced the pressure of the lobbyists. Many are

:07:01. > :07:05.hoping he takes a similar line with the Italian parliament.

:07:06. > :07:10.It looks pretty imminent. Take us through the challenges that lie

:07:10. > :07:16.ahead for Mario Monti and Italy. Well, you will have seen the

:07:16. > :07:19.optimism in that report. The challenges Italy faces are much the

:07:19. > :07:23.same today as they were two days ago. Silvio Berlusconi is still

:07:23. > :07:27.there, pulling the strings in the background, talking about a

:07:27. > :07:31.possible 4th term as Prime Minister, although I find it hard to believe

:07:31. > :07:35.the Italians would give him another chance. The divisions in the state

:07:35. > :07:39.are still much the same. The debt mountain is weighing heavily on

:07:39. > :07:44.every decision taken. The austerity bill passed yesterday is a pale

:07:44. > :07:48.imitation of what is needed. It must go wider and much, much deeper.

:07:48. > :07:53.It must guard immediately. If it does not, the chaos we saw in the

:07:53. > :07:59.past week will return and that has implications not just for Italy

:07:59. > :08:03.before the entire Eurozone. -- but for the entire Eurozone.

:08:03. > :08:07.Syria has called for an emergency Arab summit to discuss the unrest

:08:07. > :08:12.in the country, following the Arab League's decision to suspend Syria

:08:12. > :08:18.over its handling of anti- government protests. What has been

:08:18. > :08:23.Syria's response, Jon Leyne? It has been every bit as hard line is we

:08:23. > :08:29.have come to expect. Firstly, a furious denunciation of the Arab

:08:29. > :08:33.League, which they condemned as a tool of American policy. Today,

:08:33. > :08:39.pro-government demonstrations encouraged by the Government. Last

:08:39. > :08:43.night, attacks on embassies of countries that have been critical

:08:43. > :08:49.of Syria. The indices of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. All of

:08:49. > :08:53.that will not win Syria any more friends. -- the embassies. I expect

:08:53. > :08:57.that they will not be sympathetic to Syria's call for an Arab League

:08:57. > :09:02.summit which they have demanded. Instead, I think we are looking at

:09:02. > :09:09.an increase of violence on the ground in Syria. That, in turn,

:09:10. > :09:16.could lead to the Arab League to calling for United Nations action.

:09:16. > :09:20.Possibly even economic sanctions. The Business Secretary, Vince Cable

:09:20. > :09:24.has said he sympathises with the feelings behind the St Paul's

:09:24. > :09:28.cathedral protest camp. Speaking to the Politics Show, he said he me

:09:28. > :09:33.introduce legislation to curb executive pay next year. Ross

:09:33. > :09:39.Hawkins reports. As this camp continues, politicians

:09:39. > :09:43.have had to say what they would do about the issues of the St Paul's

:09:43. > :09:46.process -- protest. Vince Cable was asked if he sympathised. I have

:09:46. > :09:51.sympathy with the emotions that lie behind it. Some of the

:09:51. > :09:54.recommendations are not helpful but that is not the point. I think it

:09:54. > :09:57.reflects a feeling that a small number of people have done

:09:57. > :10:00.extraordinarily well in the crisis, often undeservedly, and large

:10:00. > :10:01.numbers of people who played no numbers of people who played no

:10:01. > :10:07.part in causing the crisis had been part in causing the crisis had been

:10:07. > :10:11.hurt by it. Labour's leader has already said that there seems to

:10:11. > :10:15.reflect a crisis of concern but Vince Cable's most senior colleague

:10:15. > :10:20.has struck a different tone. I have got a quaint value that you should

:10:20. > :10:26.not be able to erect tents of the place. -- a quaint view. I think

:10:26. > :10:30.protesting should be done on two feet rather than lying down.

:10:30. > :10:35.Vince Cable argues that his is a practical response. He says that he

:10:35. > :10:39.may draw up new laws next year to restrain how much executives earn.

:10:40. > :10:43.He is not about to let ministers set directors' pay but he has been

:10:43. > :10:47.consulting on making how they're paid simpler and giving

:10:47. > :10:51.shareholders more powers. introduced legislation which is on

:10:51. > :10:55.the statute book which says that every person paid more than �1

:10:55. > :11:00.million, their pay and bonus should be made public. The Conservative

:11:00. > :11:05.government has refused to use that legislation. Britain does not need

:11:05. > :11:09.a new Bill, Vince Cable could do that right now. Why does he not

:11:09. > :11:13.just actor rather than prevaricate? Rescue teams have ended their

:11:13. > :11:17.search for a 79-year-old man who was flying a light aircraft which

:11:17. > :11:20.crashed into the Channel. Ian Dickinson's plane came down off the

:11:20. > :11:24.coast of Guernsey yesterday. His wife was rescued from a passing

:11:24. > :11:27.ship. Formula One, and Lewis Hamilton won

:11:27. > :11:33.the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix with what he described as one of the best

:11:33. > :11:36.drives of his career. It is his first win since July. The World

:11:36. > :11:43.Champion fails to finish for the first time this season after

:11:43. > :11:51.spinning off in the opening lap. It was the day when Lewis Hamilton

:11:51. > :11:56.rediscovered his fizz after a troubled few months. At last, a win.

:11:56. > :12:00.Hamilton had begun behind Sebastian Vettel. He probably expected to

:12:01. > :12:06.finish there. But I do know where, this. Sebastian Vettel is off with

:12:06. > :12:11.a puncture! His back tyre had burst with dramatic results. His first

:12:11. > :12:15.retirement this season. Still, with the World title already sewn up, no

:12:15. > :12:20.complaints. But the way was clear for Hamilton and how he took his

:12:20. > :12:25.chance. Easing clear off Fernando Alonso. His team-mate, Jenson

:12:25. > :12:31.Button was in a tussle. Wheel to wheel with Mark Webber. He clung on

:12:31. > :12:38.to take a gutsy third. There was no doubting the star of the show.

:12:38. > :12:42.Hamilton is back and so are McLaren! Excellent job, dies! I

:12:42. > :12:46.want to dedicate this one to my mum. His mother looked suitably

:12:46. > :12:51.impressed. Birthday kisses all round. The pride was palpable.

:12:51. > :12:58.feel fantastic. I think it was one of my best races. I am ecstatic,

:12:58. > :13:03.really, really very happy to be back up here. This is great. I can

:13:03. > :13:13.get on the flight tonight and smile. Four Hamilton and his family, a day

:13:13. > :13:17.to savour. His motor racing MOJO, it seems, is finally back.

:13:17. > :13:20.Back to Remembrance Sunday. This year's events hold a special

:13:20. > :13:24.significance for the Royal British Legion, marking its 90th

:13:24. > :13:28.anniversary. Since its founding, it has helped hundreds of thousands of

:13:28. > :13:33.servicemen and women and their families. As Caroline Wyatt reports,

:13:33. > :13:36.the recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan mean that its work is

:13:36. > :13:40.as are you now as at any time in its history.

:13:40. > :13:45.Remembering the fallen is something Aaron she often does every day. He

:13:46. > :13:48.lost a leg and one of his best friends was killed when a Taliban

:13:48. > :13:53.bomb blew up their Land Rover in Helmand Province. Officials told

:13:53. > :13:59.him that he did not qualify for a disability allowance until the

:13:59. > :14:02.Royal British Legion stepped in to help. I want to remember not only

:14:02. > :14:06.the soldiers that never came back but to help the soldiers that are

:14:07. > :14:13.going to be injured. The Royal British Legion to not only focus on

:14:13. > :14:18.the old boys from conflict past, but they also concentrate on the

:14:18. > :14:21.Iraq veterans, the Afghanistan veterans and service personnel.

:14:21. > :14:25.27-year-old served with a The Mercian Regiment. Now he helps

:14:25. > :14:29.raise awareness of the work of the Royal British Legion. He says he

:14:29. > :14:34.feels lucky that he and his fiancee are due to marry. He hopes that one

:14:34. > :14:38.day he will be able to work again. The Royal British Legion is hoping

:14:38. > :14:41.to have raised �40 million this year. This will help support those

:14:41. > :14:45.serving in Afghanistan and veterans of other conflicts and their

:14:45. > :14:49.families. Other charities, to, say that even if Helmand Province is

:14:49. > :14:52.not so much and that headlines, they hope the British public will

:14:52. > :14:57.continue to support those injured in a line of duty for as long as

:14:57. > :15:03.they need that help. Four nearly 90 years, the poppy

:15:03. > :15:08.factory here has been making poppies, crosses and reads --

:15:08. > :15:14.wreaths. Since 2007, it has been placing wounded and sick veterans

:15:14. > :15:20.into other jobs. Alex Harrison was also wounded while serving in

:15:20. > :15:24.Afghanistan. He was shot in the Temple, losing an eye. Now, he has

:15:24. > :15:33.found work as a green skipper at this golf club, with help from the

:15:33. > :15:37.poppy factory. -- greens keeper. knocked me for six when I came

:15:37. > :15:45.around to the idea that I was getting out of the army. As far as

:15:46. > :15:53.finding another job, I'd had no clue. Green keeping, the poppy

:15:53. > :15:56.factory said that they would help me do this if I wanted to. Alex was

:15:56. > :16:00.injured in Helmand Province in 2007. Iraq and Afghanistan have left
