:00:26. > :00:31.Good afternoon. The security forces in Bahrain have
:00:31. > :00:35.moved armoured vehicles on to the streets of the capital. As the
:00:35. > :00:38.political opposition claims that a protester there has been killed in
:00:38. > :00:40.antigovernment demonstrations. Qualifying is taking place for
:00:40. > :00:47.tomorrow's controversial Grand Prix. The race authorities are insisting
:00:47. > :00:52.that the race will go ahead. We have this report from Dan Roan.
:00:52. > :00:55.It is Bahrain's fortress in the desert. This, the ramped up
:00:55. > :00:59.security presence on the road surrounding the island's
:00:59. > :01:05.motorracing circuit this morning. The authorities leaving nothing to
:01:05. > :01:10.chance as Bahrain braced itself for this, the second of three days of
:01:10. > :01:14.rage. The drivers are here to drive. They are focused on the race,
:01:14. > :01:22.leaving those that run the sport to defend the wisdom of rirning here
:01:22. > :01:28.after last year's cancellation. I feel very comfortable having the
:01:28. > :01:35.race in Bahrain after a great Grand Prix we had in China last week.
:01:35. > :01:38.Also before throw weeks ago in Barcelona for the first Grand Prix
:01:38. > :01:43.in Europe. This is not the build up to the
:01:43. > :01:48.race that the organisers wanted. Antigovernment protesters marched
:01:48. > :01:53.along a highway until they were dispersed. Today came the reports
:01:53. > :01:58.that a body of a protester had been found in a village.
:01:58. > :02:02.A man was taken yesterday as he was protesting at 7.00pm. Today the
:02:02. > :02:06.government claims they have found his body. At the same time, the
:02:06. > :02:10.villagers are now surrounded by armoured vehicles. There are more
:02:11. > :02:15.than 100 youths arrested in the past three days, just because the
:02:15. > :02:20.government want it to seem like it is quiet in Bahrain while the
:02:20. > :02:25.Formula One takes place. Later, activists from the Shia
:02:25. > :02:28.majority are expected back on the streets. The divided island Sunni
:02:28. > :02:36.leaders struggle to contain the anger.
:02:36. > :02:41.Bahrain's most prestigious sporting event helps the rulers to pro tray
:02:41. > :02:44.stability to the outside world. They are in no mood for a U-turn.
:02:44. > :02:50.With the Grand Prix fast- approaching, this is a racing
:02:50. > :02:54.weekend like no other. F1 is a sport famous for risk-taking but
:02:55. > :02:58.this could be the biggest gamble it ever takes.
:02:58. > :03:05.The Chancellor, George Osbourne, has been defending his decision to
:03:05. > :03:09.make a further loan of �10 billion to the -- International Monetary
:03:09. > :03:15.Fund. It is used to help economies in
:03:15. > :03:18.trouble, including in the eurozone. Some have criticised his decision.
:03:19. > :03:22.With the world's economic recovery fragile, the finances ministers
:03:22. > :03:26.have been under pressure from the International Monetary Fund to top
:03:26. > :03:29.up the war chest. Britain has contributed already about �30
:03:29. > :03:33.billion, but with fears that more countries may face difficulties,
:03:33. > :03:39.the Chancellor is convinced that loaning an additional �10 billion
:03:39. > :03:44.is in the country's best interest. It is in our interest to have a
:03:44. > :03:48.strong IMF. So Britain is making a loan, a loan that we expect to give
:03:48. > :03:58.back. Anyone WHO has given money to the IMF has gotten it back. It will
:03:58. > :04:01.make it stronger. There is controversy over last
:04:01. > :04:05.month's Budget, Euro-sceptics believe this is good money after
:04:05. > :04:11.bad to prop up a Euro that Britain is not a part of.
:04:11. > :04:15.I think that the decision to give another �10 billion is a bad
:04:15. > :04:20.decision. What has happened to all of the other billions we have
:04:20. > :04:24.given? It has not fixed the problem. Greece has received a bail out, but
:04:24. > :04:29.there are fears that other European nations are heading that way.
:04:29. > :04:34.Critics say that Britain should not give more funds until Europe gets
:04:34. > :04:39.its house in order. The IMF cannot step in and to
:04:39. > :04:43.become the Central Bank of theow area. Ossetias -- George Osbourne
:04:43. > :04:53.was right when he said before that there should be no support for
:04:53. > :04:54.
:04:54. > :05:01.theow until he has seen the colour of their money.
:05:01. > :05:06.Lord Ashley, the Labour peer and disability rights campaign Haas
:05:06. > :05:10.died at the age of 89. He was the first deaf member of Parliament. A
:05:10. > :05:13.passionate advocate for the rights of disabled people.
:05:13. > :05:18.The police in North Yorkshire Police have issued a warning
:05:18. > :05:24.following the death of a teenage girl who died after taking a drug,
:05:24. > :05:29.thought to contain an am feet mean. It is described as a yellowy-white
:05:29. > :05:34.paste, a 21-year-old man is in hospital seriously ill. The police
:05:34. > :05:37.have warned people in the area to avoid taking substances with a
:05:37. > :05:42.similar discription. Military planners have raised
:05:42. > :05:51.concerns that the Government could be planning to order an inferior
:05:51. > :05:55.version of a Royal Navy aircraft. It has been said that there are
:05:55. > :05:59.serious doubts about the capability of the Jump Jet.
:05:59. > :06:05.The last Labour government envisaged that Britain would fly a
:06:05. > :06:10.Jump Jet version of the latest fighter plane of its new aircraft
:06:10. > :06:13.carrier being belt. It would be launched off a ski jump and land
:06:13. > :06:18.vertically on the deck, but this Government reversed that decision
:06:18. > :06:22.and said it wanted to buy the carrier variant being tested. David
:06:22. > :06:24.Cameron argued that this version was the better plane because it had
:06:24. > :06:29.a longer range and could carry more weapons.
:06:29. > :06:34.But the cost of fitting catapults on a ship to launch the longer
:06:34. > :06:37.range plane has spiraled. In an effort to save money in the short-
:06:37. > :06:43.term, the Government is expected to announce another jufplt turn and
:06:43. > :06:46.confirm it will go back to buying the Jump Jet version instead, but a
:06:46. > :06:51.classified MoD document, seen by the Daily Telegraph is to raise
:06:51. > :06:57.concerns over the expected reversal. It notes that overall, the carrier
:06:57. > :07:02.version of the plane is more capable than the Jump Jet version.
