:00:13. > :00:16.Nick Clegg condemns David Cameron's veto of a new EU Treaty. The Deputy

:00:16. > :00:21.Prime Minister says it is bad for Britain, but does not mean the end

:00:21. > :00:25.of the coalition. I am bitterly disappointed by the outcome of last

:00:25. > :00:30.week's summit, precisely because I think there is a danger that over

:00:30. > :00:35.time the United Kingdom will be isolated and marginalised within

:00:35. > :00:42.the European Union. We will ask how deep the divisions are within the

:00:42. > :00:47.coalition. Also, tonight, in South Africa a global deal is reached to

:00:47. > :00:52.limit carbon emissions by 2020. Pakistan's Prime Minister tells the

:00:52. > :00:57.BBC there's no trust between his country and the United States after

:00:57. > :01:02.controversial NATO raids. And Britain's Amir Khan loses his light

:01:02. > :01:07.welterweight titles in America and hits out at the refereeing. It was

:01:07. > :01:17.a disgusting decision. I don't know why it took so long. If they

:01:17. > :01:28.

:01:28. > :01:31.thought he won fair and square, I Good evening. There are signs of

:01:31. > :01:37.serious disagreement within the coalition Government tonight over

:01:37. > :01:42.David Cameron's decision to veto a proposed new EU Treaty. The Deputy

:01:42. > :01:45.Prime Minister condemned the move as "bad for Britain." Saying he was

:01:45. > :01:48.deeply disappointed with the outcome of the summit in Brussels.

:01:48. > :01:52.Tomorrow, the Prime Minister will address the House of Commons, with

:01:53. > :01:57.senior Conservatives insisting his stance does not leave Britain

:01:57. > :02:01.isolated W the latest, here's our political correspondent.

:02:01. > :02:05.Last week, the coalition leaders stood together, going into the

:02:05. > :02:09.Brussels summit. Today, the Deputy Prime Minister appeared to distance

:02:09. > :02:14.himself from the Prime Minister's decision to veto a new EU Treaty.

:02:14. > :02:18.am bitterly disappointed by the outcome of last week's summit,

:02:18. > :02:22.precisely because there is a danger that over time the United Kingdom

:02:22. > :02:27.will be isolated and marginalised within the European Union. I don't

:02:27. > :02:31.think it is good for jobs in the City or elsewhere. It's not good

:02:32. > :02:41.for growth or for families. Prime Minister and his deep pi both

:02:42. > :02:42.

:02:42. > :02:46.wanted to protect Britain's -- deputy both wanted to protect. And

:02:46. > :02:51.Conservative Euro-sceptics who kept a Prime Minister on too tight a

:02:51. > :02:54.leesh. I hear about the bulldog spirit. There's nothing bulldog

:02:55. > :02:58.about Britain hovering in the mid- Atlantic, not standing tall in

:02:58. > :03:03.Europe, not being taken serious in Washington. Nick Clegg had been

:03:04. > :03:07.criticised by some in his own party for not being more outspoken sooner.

:03:07. > :03:10.The Foreign Secretary believes coalition tensions can be overcome.

:03:10. > :03:15.Certainly there are differences between parties in a coalition, on

:03:15. > :03:19.a subject like this. As we always have, over the last 18 months, we

:03:19. > :03:22.work through those things, to a common position.

:03:22. > :03:25.Privately the Lib Dem leadership and the Conservatives say the

:03:25. > :03:32.coalition won't be allowed to fall apart over Europe. Today, the

:03:32. > :03:35.Labour leader tried to deepen the divide by saying he agreed with

:03:35. > :03:41.Nick. I agree with Nick Clegg this is a bad deal for Britain because

:03:41. > :03:48.we are going to have 26 countries going ahead without us in the room.

:03:48. > :03:52.Us excluded from key economic decisions and frankly David Cameron

:03:52. > :03:56.has mishandled this badly. European Union will not break up as

:03:56. > :04:02.a result of the negotiations in Brussels and the coalition won't

:04:02. > :04:06.either. The tensions within each are set to increase.

:04:06. > :04:09.What is your assessment of how this debate is going to develop?

:04:09. > :04:13.focus tomorrow will be here at Westminster, where David Cameron

:04:13. > :04:18.has to give an account of what he did and didn't do in Brussels to

:04:18. > :04:22.MPs. He is likely to get a big welcome from many of his Euro-

:04:22. > :04:25.sceptic backbenchers, but not an unqualified welcome. Some will say

:04:25. > :04:29.let's rest back more powers from Brussels. Some will suggest it is

:04:29. > :04:33.time for a referendum and rewrite the relationship with the EU. He'll

:04:33. > :04:37.get criticism from some Lib Dem backbenchers for isolating Britain

:04:37. > :04:43.in Europe. What is interesting tonight is both party leaderships

:04:43. > :04:46.say the coalition will not fall apart. There is a sense that they

:04:46. > :04:51.are giving each other enough space to express themselves in the line

:04:51. > :04:56.which will appeal to their own backbenchers. Is that workable, do

:04:56. > :05:00.you think? It will told the -- hold the coalition together. David

:05:00. > :05:04.Cameron will come under attack from the Labour Party. They said they

:05:04. > :05:07.try to protect financial interests, however that is less likely to

:05:07. > :05:12.happen because effectively we have 26 countries in the EU doing one

:05:12. > :05:17.thing and Britain doing another. Those 26 countries get together

:05:17. > :05:20.they might just decide to impose through a qualified majority voting.

:05:20. > :05:24.Through their majority impose regulations on the City. Therefore

:05:24. > :05:30.David Cameron would have failed TCBI are concerned about that. They

:05:30. > :05:34.want more -- the CBI are concerned about that. They want more on that.

:05:34. > :05:38.It is what happens on the markets and whether all the other eurozone

:05:38. > :05:45.countries, all the others in the EU have got together last week and

:05:45. > :05:51.make a strong enough deal to stabilise the euro. That will have

:05:51. > :05:56.big knock-on consequences for the British economy. Thank you.

:05:56. > :06:00.A last-minute deal aimed at tackling climate change has been

:06:00. > :06:06.agreed at the conference in South Africa. Delegates pledged to work

:06:06. > :06:12.towards a new accord which would get all the countries to legally

:06:12. > :06:18.binding on emissions in 2020. A huddle in the conference hall. The

:06:18. > :06:22.key powers very tense. America resisting joining a climate treaty

:06:22. > :06:28.unless China does too. China itself weary. India, unwilling to be tied

:06:28. > :06:34.into a legally-binding commitment. In the end, they got there.

:06:34. > :06:39.Seeing no objection, it's so decided. 36 hours late. Relief

:06:39. > :06:45.among many with a new agreement. This is how the deal looks - a new

:06:45. > :06:49.global treaty by 2020, limiting greenhouse gases. It will include

:06:49. > :06:55.China, India and America. It will have legal force. Though that is

:06:55. > :07:00.not defined. We have managed to bring the major emitters, like the

:07:00. > :07:04.United States and India and China into a road map which will secure

:07:04. > :07:08.the deal. The pressure had come from the most

:07:08. > :07:12.vulnerable nations. The treaty won't come as fast as they would

:07:12. > :07:16.like. India, with hundreds of millions still below the poverty

:07:16. > :07:22.line worries about restraining its development. The United States is

:07:22. > :07:26.in no rush either. Climate change is a toxic issue there. Getting a

:07:26. > :07:31.new treaty on greenhouse gases will involve difficult challenges. For

:07:31. > :07:35.the first time it is recognised there is a gap between pledges to

:07:35. > :07:41.reduce emissions and the cuts scientists say are needed T scale

:07:41. > :07:44.of cuts - who should make them and by when still has to be decided.

:07:44. > :07:52.Previous promises of road maps leading to agreements have been

:07:52. > :07:57.delayed or broken. We met mid-way. Of course we're not

:07:57. > :08:01.completely happy about the outcome. We feel it lacks balance. So they

:08:01. > :08:07.have agreed a pathway to cutting global emissions, but there's not

:08:07. > :08:10.much urgency about it. In a BBC interview Pakistan's Prime

:08:10. > :08:15.Minister has admitted his country and the United States no longer

:08:16. > :08:20.trust each other. Relations have spiralled downwards since a NATO

:08:20. > :08:26.airstrike killed 24 Pakistani soldiers near the Afghan border

:08:26. > :08:29.last month. Today Prime Minister Gilani refused to rule out closing

:08:29. > :08:35.airspace to the United States. This report does contain some

:08:35. > :08:40.flashing images. The funerals last month of 24

:08:40. > :08:47.Pakistani troops, killed by NATO aircraft. Pakistan claimed this was

:08:47. > :08:51.a deliberate attack. It is still grieving, still angry at the US.

:08:51. > :08:55.When we met the Prime Minister, Yousaf Raza Gilani, he was blunt

:08:55. > :09:01.about the cracks in the relationship.

:09:01. > :09:07.Yes there is a credibility gap. We are working together and still we

:09:07. > :09:13.don't trust each other. I think we have to improve our relationship,

:09:13. > :09:17.so that, for the better results, we shall have more confidence in each

:09:18. > :09:23.other. You have not had an apology from President Obama, are you angry

:09:23. > :09:28.about that? Sorry does not make a dead man alive, therefore we want

:09:28. > :09:34.to set new rules of engagement and population, with the United States.

:09:34. > :09:37.Until those new rules are written, the relationship is at a standstill,

:09:37. > :09:41.so are NATO convoys carrying supplies for Afghanistan. The Prime

:09:41. > :09:48.Minister told us today it could be weeks before Pakistan lets them

:09:48. > :09:53.cross the border. CIA drone strikes could be another

:09:53. > :09:57.casualty. Will you try and stop the Americans carrying out drone

:09:57. > :10:02.attacks here. If there is any information passed on to Pakistan,

:10:02. > :10:06.I think it should be left to Pakistan to take any action.

:10:06. > :10:10.Prime Minister sought to downplay concerns about the health and

:10:10. > :10:16.political prospects of Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari, who

:10:16. > :10:25.left the country for medical treatment this week. He is

:10:25. > :10:29.improving. He's now out of ICU. He has been shifted to his room. I

:10:29. > :10:34.think he'll take rest for about two weeks.

:10:34. > :10:40.The President's sudden trip to this Dubai hospital sparked feverish

:10:40. > :10:42.speculation about his future. Even talk of a quiet coup by the

:10:42. > :10:47.powerful military. The Prime Minister denied the generals were

:10:47. > :10:52.calling the shots. What about the role of the Army, which these days

:10:52. > :10:55.seems to be powerful. Some suggest more powerful than the civilian

:10:55. > :10:58.Government? Maybe there's a perception. Can you honestly say

:10:58. > :11:04.that the civilian Government has the upper hand rather than the

:11:04. > :11:08.military? We don't want to have an upper hand. There's no pressure

:11:08. > :11:13.come from the Army for the President's departure? No, not at

:11:13. > :11:17.all. President Zardari, seen here in April, is under pressure on

:11:17. > :11:22.several fronths. Some here believe this -- fronts. Some here believe

:11:22. > :11:26.this could be the beginning of a gradual exit from power.

:11:26. > :11:29.Syrian activists say there has been heavy fighting between security

:11:29. > :11:35.forces and soldiers who have defected to the opposition. It is

:11:35. > :11:39.reported that dozens of new army defectors have been fighting tank-

:11:39. > :11:42.backed forces loyal to the Government in Busra al-Hariri in

:11:42. > :11:46.Deraa. In Russia, President Medvedev has ordered an

:11:47. > :11:49.investigation into allegations of fraud during last week's

:11:49. > :11:53.parliamentary elections. The Russian President made the

:11:53. > :11:57.announcement on Facebook today, after tens of thousands of people

:11:57. > :12:02.had rallied in Moscow and other cities on Saturday. It was the

:12:02. > :12:05.largest anti-Government protest in Russia's post Soviet history.

:12:05. > :12:09.A report about to be released by the Financial Services Authority is

:12:09. > :12:12.set to be highly critical of its own role in the run-up to the

:12:12. > :12:19.collapse of the Royal Bank of Scotland three years ago. The

:12:19. > :12:24.report says staff at the City regulator lacked the skills to

:12:24. > :12:31.monitor companies as complex as RBS. ABN AMRO was a Deutsche Bank which

:12:31. > :12:35.almost chanced the entire British banking system. An RBS consortium

:12:35. > :12:39.paid �49 billion in 2007 for it, only to discover the assets were

:12:39. > :12:43.almost worthless. Now a comprehensive report from the FSA

:12:43. > :12:47.and two City grand dees is said to be highly critical of the banking

:12:47. > :12:52.watchdog, as well as the previous management at RBS. The BBC has

:12:53. > :12:59.learnt the 500-page report out tomorrow, will describe the FSA as

:12:59. > :13:06.inadequate and deefficient -- deficient. The report will say many

:13:06. > :13:09.of the FSA's own staff lacked the required skills to properly monitor

:13:09. > :13:13.whether banks were in financial good health or not. And they failed

:13:13. > :13:17.to notice in 2007 that Britain's banks were holding insufficient

:13:17. > :13:22.capital or reserves for the emergency which was about to happen

:13:22. > :13:26.a year later. They had ten large banks to supervise. By tend of the

:13:26. > :13:30.crisis there were only five left. This was an appalling story of

:13:30. > :13:33.neglect by the regulator and thoroughly justifies this

:13:33. > :13:38.Government's decision to put banking supervision back with the

:13:38. > :13:42.Bank of England. Ll the FSA refused to comment it is understood that

:13:42. > :13:46.the regulator will say that the blame must lay with the bank's

:13:47. > :13:53.management and not simply the regulator. This building used to

:13:53. > :13:56.belong to ABN AMRO before RBS bought the bank. It is to say that

:13:56. > :14:00.ABN AMRO was of such signifsapbs that the regulator should have

:14:00. > :14:08.taken a hands-on or intrusive approach to the deal. They didn't,

:14:08. > :14:12.the deal went ahead now RBS is all but nationalised.

:14:12. > :14:19.The organisers of the Queen's jubilee river pageant have

:14:19. > :14:22.deskriened the -- have revealed the design of the Royal Barge. It will

:14:22. > :14:29.be made out of the Spirit of Chartwell. It will be decked out in

:14:29. > :14:34.red and gold for the pageant. Time now for the day's sports news.

:14:34. > :14:39.Hello. Good evening. The British boxer Amir Khan is demanding a

:14:39. > :14:42.rematch after losing his two light welterweight titles in

:14:42. > :14:48.controversial circumstances. Khan was docked points by the referee.

:14:48. > :14:52.It proved crucial in his defeat to the American Lamont Peterson.

:14:52. > :14:59.In Washington Amir Khan confronted the politics of boxing's home town

:14:59. > :15:04.decision. His op popbtd, Lamont Peterson, grew up on DC's --

:15:04. > :15:08.opponent, Lamont Peterson grew up on DC's mean streets. In the

:15:08. > :15:13.seventh now, watch Khan's forearm shove. The referee saw it and told

:15:13. > :15:19.the judges to deduct a point from Khan's score T boxing was often raw,

:15:19. > :15:22.but thrilling. At times Khan seemed dominant. In the final round, enter

:15:22. > :15:28.the referee, again telling the judges to take a point from Khan.

:15:28. > :15:34.This time he had thrown a punch after being told to break. 1 rounds,

:15:34. > :15:37.then a long wait for the -- 12 rounds, then a long wait for the

:15:37. > :15:42.scores. That was a disgusting decision.

:15:42. > :15:47.A rematch is something I'm looking at. I want it next fight. I want my

:15:47. > :15:53.two titles back. We know who won that fight. I am sure everybody

:15:53. > :15:59.else knows. The record said Khan lost. Grudges about judges change

:15:59. > :16:02.nothing. Boxing's lessons are often the hardest learnt. The British

:16:02. > :16:07.golfer Luke Donald has made history today, becoming the first man to

:16:07. > :16:12.top the US and European money lists in the same season. Donald shot a

:16:12. > :16:17.66 to finish third in the Dubai World Championship, three shots

:16:17. > :16:22.behind Alvaro Quiros and second- placed Paul Lawrie. Rory McIlroy

:16:22. > :16:26.could have prevented him completing the double by finishing the event.

:16:26. > :16:32.It feels amazing. It's something I thought about quite a lot. I don't

:16:32. > :16:36.think it has sunk in yet. I'll look back at this year as being my

:16:36. > :16:40.greatest year for sure. Hopefully I can continue to improve.Vy a lot to

:16:40. > :16:46.achieve in this game. This is something I'll never forget. Now it

:16:46. > :16:49.is that time to look away if you don't want to know the results.

:16:49. > :16:53.Match of the Day 2 follows the news over on BBC Two. Martin O'Neill

:16:54. > :16:58.enjoyed a thrilling start to life as the new Sunderland manager. He

:16:58. > :17:06.watched his side come from 1-0 down and scored twice with just minutes

:17:06. > :17:12.left to beat Blackburn 2-1. Ten-man Tottenham lost for the first time

:17:12. > :17:17.in 12 league matches. The final of snooker's UK

:17:17. > :17:21.championship is coming to a conclusion over on BBC Two, with

:17:22. > :17:27.England's Judd Trump leading Mark Allen by nine frames to seven.

:17:27. > :17:33.Trump needs one more frame to win the tournament. It would be his

:17:34. > :17:36.first major title. Allen has mounted a fight back, first to ten

:17:36. > :17:40.-- first to ten frames wins. That's all the sport.
