:01:09. > :01:13.Good evening. New figures suggest that the value of workers' wages in
:01:13. > :01:17.the UK has suffered one of the sharpest falls of any country across
:01:17. > :01:21.the European Union. According to statistics from the House of
:01:21. > :01:29.Commons' library, real wages, which include the impact of inflation,
:01:29. > :01:34.have fallen by 5. .5% since the middle 2010. The Treasury says the
:01:34. > :01:38.Government has taken action to help, such as increasing the amount people
:01:38. > :01:45.can earn before they pay tax. That the be pounds in our wallets
:01:45. > :01:49.buy less and less every month won't come as a shock in many households.
:01:49. > :01:53.Since 2010 wages have been stagnant while inflation has been well above
:01:53. > :01:59.target, which means real wages have gone down. Wages in the UK fell by
:01:59. > :02:05.5. 5%, while comparably large European economies, such as frns and
:02:05. > :02:11.injury any, saw their rise by 7. 4 and 20. 4%. Such as France and
:02:11. > :02:15.Germany. Portugese real wages fell by 8% while in another eurozone
:02:15. > :02:19.bailout country, Greece, they fell by over 11%. The present government
:02:19. > :02:22.are out of touch. They are trying to suggest everything is fine in the
:02:22. > :02:26.economy when we know and working people themselves know they have
:02:26. > :02:29.taken a hit, their incomes have been squeezed. They are seeing prices
:02:29. > :02:32.rising faster than wages and they know from the money that's coming
:02:32. > :02:37.into their pockets and the bills they have to pay, that things are
:02:37. > :02:40.getting tough. A Treasury spokes beperson said the Government had

:02:51. > :02:54.This research was requested by the Labour Party and carried out by the
:02:54. > :02:59.House of Commons Library. It's choice of starting point just as the
:02:59. > :03:02.coalition came to power s very deliberate. Doubtless the Government
:03:02. > :03:05.would have chosen a more flattering start date. There is no doubt though
:03:05. > :03:09.that the hits being taken by many households over the last few years
:03:09. > :03:11.has been very pronounced. With the Bank of England signalling that it
:03:11. > :03:16.doesn't expect inflation to come down towardsed its target level

:03:25. > :03:30.With me is our Political Correspondent Ben Wright. Why are
:03:30. > :03:33.Labour attacking on this front so eagerly? I think the living
:03:33. > :03:35.standards argument is politically potent. There are a couple of
:03:35. > :03:40.classic election campaigns that parties tend to fight on. One, if
:03:40. > :03:44.you are a governing party where you say you have rescued the economy
:03:44. > :03:48.pulled it back from the brink, and ask voters not to risk it by letting
:03:48. > :03:51.the other lot back in. And the strategy deployed by opposition
:03:51. > :03:55.where they ask voters whether they feel better off now than they did
:03:55. > :03:58.last time around. We will see both of those battles played out come the
:03:58. > :04:02.general election. It's been a tricky moment this, for Labour. There are
:04:02. > :04:06.complaints within its ranks that it lacks policy. Another Labour MP
:04:06. > :04:10.spoke out today. There is clearly an economic recovery under way. It is
:04:10. > :04:13.working out how to respond, which is why it jumped on the figures to show
:04:13. > :04:18.that since the coalition came to power, wages have been falling and
:04:18. > :04:22.it wants to pin the blame on the coalition. The coalition, of course,
:04:22. > :04:28.understand the risks of a recovery that doesn't make people feel
:04:28. > :04:31.better. It' try hard to put the blaming on the economic crisis that
:04:31. > :04:35.happened on Labour's watch. The whole argument about how to repair
:04:35. > :04:40.the economy after the recession is beginning to shift to one on, what
:04:40. > :04:44.sort of recovery this is and how it affects people's pockets.

:05:04. > :05:09.Wyatt. A tense few House ahead? -- few
:05:09. > :05:13.hours. Absolutely. The BBC and other media outlets here have been told by
:05:13. > :05:19.a normally reliable source within the Egyptian Interior Ministry that
:05:19. > :05:25.an operation to clear the camps is expected to begin at 5.00am, in
:05:25. > :05:29.around six hours' time. It'll begin in an orderly and gradual fashion.
:05:29. > :05:33.They'll surround the camps stopping access and any more people coming N
:05:33. > :05:36.we saw many more people joining the camps when they thought the riot
:05:36. > :05:40.police might be about to go in. They say that operation will proceed. The
:05:40. > :05:43.stage has been set for this political confrontation, this
:05:43. > :05:47.possibly violent confrontation for some time. The Muslim Brotherhood
:05:47. > :05:50.already say they have put out a message of a state of alert to their
:05:50. > :05:55.followers, asking them to disperse and to start setting up new camps in
:05:55. > :05:58.the city. The fear, of course, is that many women and children
:05:58. > :06:02.deliberately staying in those camps, that there could be more bloodshed
:06:02. > :06:07.unless the riot police are incredibly careful and that any more
:06:07. > :06:09.bloodshed could further deepen the current political divides, which are
:06:09. > :06:12.very deep, within Egyptian society here.

:06:16. > :06:20.about a 13-year-old girl from Sheffield who's been missing for six
:06:20. > :06:24.days. Following appeals earlier today, they say they are

:06:45. > :06:48.schoolgirl to get in touch. Erika was last seen leaving her home in

:06:52. > :06:56.Officers have been carrying out inquiries in the area where she
:06:56. > :07:00.lived and stress that time is now of the essence.
:07:00. > :07:05.Erika is not in trouble. There's nothing that she's done wrong. We
:07:05. > :07:08.really do just want her to come home and make sure that she's safe.
:07:08. > :07:12.22-year-old man from Bradford, arrested on suspicion of child
:07:12. > :07:17.abduction, was released today on bail. Officers say that he had a
:07:17. > :07:22.friendship with the girl, and continues to help the inquiry.
:07:22. > :07:25.The search for Erika has now widened out to other parts of Yorkshire, the
:07:25. > :07:28.focus now switching to here, Bradford, where police believe she
:07:28. > :07:32.may be staying with friends. Officers from South Yorkshire
:07:32. > :07:38.travelled here and are working with West Yorkshire Police. Everything
:07:39. > :07:42.that we know to date or what we've had so far, would lead us to believe
:07:42. > :07:47.she is with people she knows. Tonight police released a new

:09:33. > :09:40.TRANSLATION: I wish it had been announced before. And there will be
:09:40. > :09:44.more to come in the future. After months of American pressure, Israel
:09:44. > :09:47.and the Palestinians are expected to sit down for peace talks in

:09:53. > :10:00.there is anger now, rather than there is anger now, rather than
:10:00. > :10:04.hope. Why? Who does these things? Are they determined to undermine the

:10:08. > :10:11.to leave the negotiating table Israel is prepared to release a
:10:11. > :10:14.small number of Palestinian prisoners at the start of the peace
:10:14. > :10:17.talks. This settlement announcement may be timed to reassure
:10:17. > :10:21.right-wingers who don't like that concession. The Palestinians, just
:10:21. > :10:26.on the other side of that fence, say that Israeli development is choking
:10:26. > :10:30.off any scope for them to build a future state here. The prospects for
