they'd vote to leave the EU if a referendum was to take place now.

:00:10.:00:13.

Ahead of a challenging week for the Prime Minister, Cabinet unease over

:00:13.:00:22.

Europe is led by Philip Hammond and Michael Gove. I'm not happy with our

:00:22.:00:26.

position on the EU, but my preference is for a change in our

:00:26.:00:30.

relationship with the EU. Pakistan, Nawaz Sharif prepares to

:00:30.:00:33.

become Prime Minister for a third time - claiming victory over former

:00:33.:00:38.

cricket star Imran Khan. After four years on the run - one of Britain's

:00:38.:00:40.

most wanted criminals is finally captured in a dramatic police raid

:00:40.:00:49.

in Spain. And a fitting farewell to Fergie - as he lifts his 38th and

:00:49.:00:59.
:00:59.:01:16.

two senior Conservative members of the government have said they would

:01:16.:01:19.

vote for Britain to leave the EU if a referendum were held today. But

:01:19.:01:22.

the Education Secretary, Michael Gove and the Defence Secretary

:01:22.:01:24.

Philip Hammond both say they'd prefer a renegotiation of the UK's

:01:24.:01:27.

membership - which David Cameron is seeking to achieve. Labour has

:01:27.:01:30.

accused the Prime Minister of losing control of his party. Our political

:01:30.:01:40.
:01:40.:01:46.

correspondent Ross Hawkins reports. You often here Tories say they would

:01:46.:01:49.

vote tomorrow to get Britain out of Europe, but it is not what the Prime

:01:49.:01:54.

Minister says and it is not what Conservatives in his cabinet have

:01:54.:01:59.

said publicly. Until now. Until two members of the cabinet said they

:01:59.:02:06.

would vote no. Things change when Michael Gove was asked if a

:02:06.:02:10.

referendum were held would he vote to leave the EU? Yes, but my

:02:10.:02:15.

preference is for a change in Britain's relationship with the EU.

:02:15.:02:19.

Any ideal is what the majority of the public's ideal is, to recognise

:02:19.:02:24.

the current situation is no good. Within hours the Defence Secretary

:02:24.:02:28.

told the BBC that he agreed with Michael Gove, as the Conservative

:02:28.:02:34.

Party braced itself for another week of talking about Europe. The Queen

:02:34.:02:39.

commands this House... Because amid the pomp of last week's Queen's

:02:39.:02:46.

Speech, some Tories were unhappy that the programme did not set up an

:02:46.:02:54.

EU vote. Tory Ministers like Gove plan to abstain, rather than oppose

:02:54.:02:57.

the motion. Don't you think the Conservative Party feels as though

:02:57.:03:03.

it has lost its marbles, David Cameron has lost control not just of

:03:03.:03:10.

the pack benches -- backbenches, but the front benches too. David

:03:10.:03:17.

Cameron's plan is to negotiate a new deal with the E Newcastle. -- EU. It

:03:17.:03:23.

is a plan Gove and Philip -Gove and Philip Hammond support. That

:03:23.:03:28.

referendum promise was designed to calm some Tory debates about Europe.

:03:28.:03:32.

But some Conservative MPs think a new law is needed to convince the

:03:32.:03:36.

public that there would be a vote on Europe and they will make that case

:03:36.:03:41.

here in the coming week. And one of them in relaxed mood today argued

:03:41.:03:45.

that this was all in the best interests of the wider Tory team.

:03:45.:03:49.

Helping point out Labour won't promise a referendum and Nick

:03:49.:03:53.

Clegg's party oppose the idea. what is David Cameron wants to bring

:03:53.:03:59.

in. He has only been Stobbsed -- stopped by the Liberal Democrats.

:03:59.:04:04.

David Cameron wanted to stop his party banging on about Europe. There

:04:04.:04:10.

is little sign that is something that he is about to achieve. Ross is

:04:10.:04:14.

in Downing Street now. Given the issues that the Prime Minister is

:04:14.:04:21.

facing, how will he view Europe being top of the jaepd again?

:04:21.:04:25.

agenda again? Well the Prime Minister has the advantage of not

:04:25.:04:30.

being here for an EU vote. Because he has headed to the United States

:04:30.:04:35.

to talk to the president about subjects such as Syria.

:04:35.:04:39.

Conservatives here point out much of this is hypothetical. There wasn't a

:04:39.:04:44.

vote on the EU today and there won't be one tomorrow or for some time a

:04:44.:04:51.

referendum to decide our future. But the political impact is real. Euro

:04:51.:04:55.

sceptics are happy and Liberal Democrats concerned not just because

:04:55.:04:58.

they disagree with the Conservatives, but they fear the

:04:58.:05:02.

rest of the government's agenda could be drowned out by this topic

:05:02.:05:08.

and as the debate continues that concern could be shared in both the

:05:08.:05:13.

coalition parties. Thank you. He was previously deposed in a military

:05:13.:05:16.

coup and spent years in exile, but today Nawaz Sharif is preparing to

:05:16.:05:21.

return for a third term as Pakistan's Prime Minister. In an

:05:21.:05:23.

election marred by violence, his conservative Pakistan Muslim League

:05:24.:05:30.

won three times as many seats as the former cricketer Imran Khan. From

:05:30.:05:40.
:05:40.:05:40.

Lahore, our Pakistan Correspondent Orla Guerin reports. Making his come

:05:40.:05:47.

back by bus. Nawaz Sharif on polling day. Commuters rushed to thank him

:05:47.:05:53.

for the city's new public transport system. The metro bus was introduced

:05:53.:05:57.

by his party in January. A good vehicle for a return to power. It

:05:57.:06:06.

has been a long time coming. E When he was overthrown by the military 14

:06:06.:06:12.

years ago, few shed any tears. His Government was deeply unpopular. The

:06:12.:06:19.

former Prime Minister was arrested, jailed and exiled to Saudi Arabia.

:06:19.:06:26.

He returned triumphant in 2007. Sips then -- since then analysts say he

:06:26.:06:32.

has grown older and wiser. matured late and moved to the centre

:06:32.:06:38.

late. But he did move. Now he could be regarded as a moderate and

:06:38.:06:48.
:06:48.:06:50.

somebody who Knoyles t a -- is not an extremist. The party faithful

:06:50.:06:56.

hope to catch a glimpse of him. Security has been imcrease --

:06:56.:07:02.

increased for the Prime Minister in waiting. Schar's -- Nawaz Sharif's

:07:02.:07:08.

supporters are celebrating, but he is under no illusions over what is

:07:08.:07:13.

ahead. He is head of a count which are grave problems and he has said

:07:13.:07:20.

the situation is a mess. We have seen incredible scenes... His rival,

:07:20.:07:24.

Imran Khan said democracy has been strengthened here, though he

:07:24.:07:30.

complained of election rigging. But the focus is now on Nawaz Sharif,

:07:30.:07:35.

who stands accused by some of pandering to Islamic extreme I wases

:07:35.:07:40.

and being soft on -- extremists and being soft on hard liners. An

:07:40.:07:45.

official from his party said he was trusted by the Afghan Taliban and

:07:45.:07:51.

that could help the west. Nigh you -- You will find him as a good

partner to reach them and come to an understanding with them so it

:07:59.:08:03.

becomes easier. For Pakistan it is the beginning of a new chapter under

:08:03.:08:08.

a leader who has foundered before. Supporters say it will be a case of

:08:08.:08:15.

third time lucky. One of Britain's most wanted men - on the run for

:08:15.:08:19.

four years - has been arrested in a dramatic raid in Spain. Andrew Moran

:08:19.:08:22.

was seized by armed police at a resort north of Benidorm with guns,

:08:22.:08:29.

ammunition and machetes all found in his luxury apartment. In 2009, he

:08:29.:08:32.

escaped by breaking out of the dock while he was standing trial for

:08:32.:08:35.

armed robbery. As Danny Savage reports, he was later convicted in

:08:35.:08:44.

his absence. A luxury Villa in Spain. And armed police officers

:08:44.:08:48.

close in on a British man who has been wanted for years. He does not

:08:48.:08:54.

know he is enjoying his last moments of freedom by the pool. At the last

:08:54.:08:59.

moment, Andrew Moran realise what is is going on and tries to escape. But

:08:59.:09:09.
:09:09.:09:10.

there is no getting away. 31-year-old Moran had previously

:09:10.:09:15.

avoided police officers by ramming police cars. Moran had been on the

:09:15.:09:20.

run since 2009 when he bolted over the dock at Burnley Crown Court and

:09:20.:09:27.

escaped. He was later convicted in his absence for his part in an armed

:09:27.:09:33.

robbery of a Royal Mail van. Pictureses of him escaping were

:09:33.:09:37.

released at the time. But he fled the country and changed his

:09:37.:09:40.

appearance. He was even featured on the BBC's Crimewatch programme,

:09:40.:09:46.

where they showed CCTV pictures of the original crime. Back in the

:09:46.:09:51.

Villa in Spain where he was found, police found a number of weapons,

:09:52.:09:57.

including guns, ammunition and machetes. Police say his arrest was

:09:57.:10:02.

part of an operation which has caught 50 fugitives. Extradition

:10:02.:10:06.

proceedings are under way and Moran will appear in court in Madrid

:10:06.:10:14.

tomorrow. It is hoped he will be returned here to be zensed. --

sentenced In Saudi Arabia two more people have died from a new strain

:10:18.:10:21.

of a virus similar to that which causes SARS. Novel coronavirus first

:10:21.:10:24.

emerged in the Gulf last year but there have been 15 confirmed cases

:10:24.:10:30.

from this outbreak. Nine of those infected have died. Syria has denied

:10:30.:10:33.

claims that its intelligence service was behind two car bombs which

:10:33.:10:39.

killed 46 people in southern Turkey. The Turkish Prime Minister has

:10:39.:10:42.

called the attacks an attempt to draw his country into the Syrian

:10:42.:10:45.

conflict. Our Middle East Correspondent Wyre Davies reports

:10:45.:10:51.

from Reyhanli, where the funerals of some victims have been taking place.

:10:51.:10:57.

The day after Syria's civil war spilled over into neighbouring

:10:57.:11:03.

Turkey. The town of ray Hamley buried 46 people. Men, women and

:11:03.:11:10.

children were laid to rest. Mostly local TUCs -- Turks, but some Syrian

:11:10.:11:18.

refugees as well. The two car bombs ripped the heart out of the town,

:11:18.:11:23.

which has absorbed thousands of refugees from across the border.

:11:23.:11:28.

Locals say they're paying the price for Turkey's support of the Assad

:11:28.:11:32.

regime's opponents in Syria. There is anger here with their own

:11:32.:11:36.

government. They never want to be involved in Syria's civil war and

:11:36.:11:42.

they blame the Turkish authorities for allowing so many refugees to

:11:42.:11:50.

make this town the focus of the tensions in Syria itsel The refugees

:11:50.:11:56.

are living here and that is fine, says this man, but we don't know who

:11:56.:12:04.

did this and their presence is putting our lives in danger. The

:12:04.:12:09.

Government of Recep Tayyip Erdogan blamed what it called agents of the

:12:09.:12:13.

Assad regime for if bombings and then an announcement that nine

:12:13.:12:19.

people, all tishgish nationals -- Turkish nationals, had been

:12:19.:12:23.

arrested. The Prime Minister's opponents took to the streets saying

:12:23.:12:30.

his meddling in Syria is backfiring. Syria denied any involvement in the

:12:30.:12:36.

attacks. But said it would not be provoked, Turkey said those

:12:36.:12:42.

responsible would be held to account -sooner or later. The woman who

:12:42.:12:45.

emerged alive after 17 days in the rubble of a collapsed clothing

:12:45.:12:48.

factory in Bangladesh has spoken to the BBC of her delight at being

:12:48.:12:52.

rescued. The young seamstress was found on Friday in the ruins of the

:12:53.:12:55.

building where over 1000 of her fellow workers died. Our

:12:55.:13:03.

correspondent Sanjoy Majumder has been speaking to her. They're

:13:03.:13:11.

calling her the miracle girl. Pulled out of rubble after 17 days. Now she

:13:11.:13:16.

is recovering in this hospital. A family -- her family by her side as

:13:16.:13:24.

she recalls her ordeal. TransI'm feeling -- TRANSLATION: I'm feeling

:13:24.:13:30.

good. I did not imagine I would come out alive. When they brought me out,

:13:30.:13:34.

I wasn't even sure how long I had been in there. Her brother is still

:13:34.:13:41.

overcome at the sight of the sister he thought he had lost. I didn't

:13:41.:13:49.

think I would find her alive, he says, I was only hoping to find a

:13:49.:13:55.

body -- body so I could give hear proper burial. Her rescue came after

:13:55.:13:59.

somebody saw her waving from the building where she worked, making

:13:59.:14:09.

clothes for shoppers in the West. The machinery has now moved in. The

:14:09.:14:13.

woman was found here two days ago, but she was one of the lucky ones.

:14:13.:14:23.

It is hard to imagine but this is all that remains of the mass a --

:14:23.:14:28.

Plaza. A short while ago they brought a body out. But there is not

:14:28.:14:35.

much hope that they will find a lot more inside there. So they're

:14:35.:14:43.

praying for another miracle. But mostly for those who didn't make it.

:14:43.:14:51.

E Now the sport. It has been an emotional day at Old Trafford? Yes.

:14:51.:14:56.

You with see the action from Alex Ferguson's last home game in charge

:14:56.:15:01.

of Manchester United and all the goals from the Premiership after

:15:01.:15:05.

this programme. Sportscene follows. So if you don't know what happened,

:15:05.:15:10.

this is your chance to leave the room. At Old Trafford the man with

:15:10.:15:17.

the best CV in football said goodbye with a win against Swansea. Under

:15:17.:15:22.

grey skies, they flocked for the fondest farewell. Old Trafford a sea

:15:22.:15:32.
:15:32.:15:32.

of flags as for the final time, they welcomed their hero. Sir Ferring! --

:15:32.:15:40.

Sir Alex Ferguson! For 26 years he has been the same in nonsense

:15:40.:15:46.

figure. And 75,000 fans roared a spine-tingling ovation. Eammon them,

:15:46.:15:52.

Wayne Rooney -- among them, Wayne Rooney, left out the squad. Alex

:15:52.:15:58.

Ferguson said he had asked to leave United. But Rio Ferdinand's late

:15:58.:16:04.

goal completed a win over Swansea. Alex Ferguson said he decided to

:16:04.:16:08.

retire at Christmas, to support his wife after the death of her sister.

:16:08.:16:13.

But he said managing United was the ex-pianos of a -- experience of a

:16:13.:16:17.

lifetime. Now I will enjoy watching them, rather than suffer with them.

:16:17.:16:24.

If you think about it, those last minute goals, the come backs, even

:16:24.:16:30.

the defeats are all part of the great club of ours and it has been

:16:30.:16:34.

an unbelievable experience for all of us. Thank you for that. After the

:16:34.:16:44.
:16:44.:16:45.

sentiment, the celebratio A 13th and final Premiership title. A brilliant

:16:45.:16:54.

end to his career. A day of emotion and the end of an era. He has

:16:54.:17:01.

finished in suitably victorious style. Alex Ferguson asked the home

:17:01.:17:10.

fans to stand by his successor at United, David Moyes who Steined --

:17:11.:17:20.
:17:21.:17:34.

Derby and Motherwell beat Ross County at home. Watford are one

:17:34.:17:40.

match away from the Premier League after beating Leicester in the

:17:40.:17:45.

second leg of their play off semi final. The game was going to extra

:17:45.:17:52.

time when Leicester were given a penalty. But the keeper saved it and

:17:52.:17:59.

Watford scored at the other end in the 96th minute. Northampton will

:17:59.:18:06.

play Leicester in the Premiership final at the end of month. They beat

:18:06.:18:12.
