Good afternoon. The attorney dead General Dominic | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
Grieve has warned politicians need to wake up to what is the threat of | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
corruption within some minority communities. -- the Attorney | :00:34. | :00:39. | |
General. He said he was referring mainly to | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
the Pakistani community, but stressed it was not just a Pakistani | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
problem. He is the government's most senior | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
legal adviser and he is raising concerns about the potential of | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
corruption and electoral fraud. Dominic Grieve spoke about the | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
background of some migrants who come from countries where corruption is | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
endemic. He told the Daily Telegraph they also come from societies where | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
they have been brought up to believe you can only get certain things | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
through a favour culture. One of the things you have to make absolutely | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
clear is that is not the case. Pushed on whether he was rough | :01:23. | :01:27. | |
airing to the Pakistani community, he replied, yes, it is mainly their | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
community although I would be wary of saying it is just a Pakistani | :01:33. | :01:37. | |
problem. It was profoundly disturbing to read what he said. It | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
paints the whole community, who have worked extremely hard in this | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
country, socially, politically and economically. There are many from | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
this ethnic background contributing in a very positive way. The Attorney | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
General said the Telegraph failed to reflect his comments on the | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
contribution of different communities to life in the UK. He | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
said he believes the problem of corruption cannot be directly | :02:06. | :02:10. | |
attributed to any one group. He is highlighting a sensitive subject | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
often avoided by politicians. With a review into voting fraud due out in | :02:16. | :02:20. | |
a few weeks, it is something all sides may have to address. | :02:21. | :02:25. | |
Foreign Minister is from six world powers are gathering in Geneva | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
hoping to secure a breakthrough in the row with Iran over the nuclear | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
programme. William Hague and John Kerry have arrived for talks. | :02:34. | :02:37. | |
Negotiators spent the past three days trying to reach an interim deal | :02:38. | :02:44. | |
in which Iran would curb its nuclear activities in return for easing of | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
sanctions. James, this is very like two weeks ago when the ministers all | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
gathered. Is there the same sort of optimism? They did not manage a deal | :02:56. | :03:02. | |
to weeks ago, but that has not put off those foreign ministers from | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
coming back here to have another go. This time there is a lot more | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
pressure on them. You can try this one can fail, but if you try this | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
twice and go home without a deal, those Foreign Minister 's will have | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
problems in their respective cabinets. Particularly John Kerry. | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
If they do not work out a deal, they will find it hard to persuade | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
sceptics that these negotiations are worth it. William Hague said earlier | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
today that these negotiations are not finished. They are here because | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
they need to get on with it. There is clearly a lot of work left to do. | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
New NHS figures have highlighted the growing number of hospital beds | :03:51. | :03:53. | |
being blocked by patients who are well enough to go home, but are not | :03:54. | :03:58. | |
actually discharged. Last month the number of days lost to patients who | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
needed that theirs was the highest in three years. | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
This is about making sure that patients who are fit to leave | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
hospital can recover in the right place, and their beds are made | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
available to those who need them. 80,000 bed days were lost in October | :04:17. | :04:22. | |
from delayed discharges. That is up nearly 8000 on the same month last | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
year. Labour say choose the pressure hospitals are under. What these | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
figures show are shocking. They show the pressure that England's | :04:32. | :04:38. | |
hospitals are under as a result of the care crisis. ?2 billion has been | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
taken out of adult social care and we are seeing elderly people, who | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
really ought to be cared for in the home and in the community, are | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
turning up at hospital. The figures indicate getting appropriate social | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
care in place so patients can be discharged safely is a growing | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
problem. The Department of Health said in an average week, NHS | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
hospitals admit a quarter of a million patients. In that context, | :05:08. | :05:17. | |
the number of delays are very low. And in sport, Australia have moved | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
within touching distance of winning the first Ashes test in Brisbane. At | :05:21. | :05:28. | |
the close England were needing a -- a further 500 runs to win. | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
Two days left of the first test and England scouring the skies for | :05:36. | :05:41. | |
storms. Saturday's rain only skimmed the Gabba ground. Nothing could stop | :05:42. | :05:48. | |
the advance of this trillions. The tactic was simple, brutal. Not long | :05:49. | :06:02. | |
ago, he reached his first Ashes century. The celebration punch | :06:03. | :06:10. | |
missed. Stuart Broad eventually managed to get back into it. There | :06:11. | :06:17. | |
has been much discussion of Michael Clarke's perceived weaknesses. This | :06:18. | :06:25. | |
suggests he is doing OK. When the lead reached 560, the captain | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
declared. The harsh reality of 2013 is that | :06:28. | :06:39. | |
England will resume on the fourth day, two wickets down. Australia set | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
a trap for Jonathan Trott, and he fell into it headfirst. Our bowlers | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
are bowling fast at the moment. England are on the back foot. They | :06:53. | :07:00. | |
were pretty poorer today. Defeat looms, and England know they must | :07:01. | :07:03. | |
show some sign of a | :07:04. | :07:04. |
