:01:03. > :01:09.Good evening. MPs look set to get a pay increase of 11% - that's five
:01:10. > :01:13.times the rate of inflation. The move has been opposed by the three
:01:14. > :01:16.main party leaders. The proposal, by the independent body that sets MPs'
:01:17. > :01:20.salaries, would take effect after the next General election. Two
:01:21. > :01:24.Cabinet ministers have said they won't take it because it sends the
:01:25. > :01:27.wrong signal in a time of economic austerity but others have argued
:01:28. > :01:36.that will help attract a better range of candidates to politics.
:01:37. > :01:43.They do not normally agree on much but one thing that unites the
:01:44. > :01:49.leaders of the three main parties is their complete opposition to a
:01:50. > :01:53.?7,000 pay rise for MPs after the next election. The Liberal Democrats
:01:54. > :01:58.at the Treasury, who has been tightening the purse string for
:01:59. > :02:03.public sector workers, thinks it is a mistake. I think it would be
:02:04. > :02:08.wholly inappropriate for MPs to get such a large pay rise when every
:02:09. > :02:16.other public sector worker is seeing wages capped. Currently MPs earn
:02:17. > :02:22.just under ?66,500. That should rise to ?74,000 after the next election,
:02:23. > :02:26.a jump of 11%. While politicians might be embarrassed, there is not
:02:27. > :02:39.much they can do. Parliament gave away the right to set MPs paid
:02:40. > :02:44.before the last election. This pay rise will not actually cost the
:02:45. > :02:48.taxpayer extra. MPs will have to contribute more to their pensions.
:02:49. > :02:53.Some believe the pay rise is justified. We are trying to make
:02:54. > :02:57.sure that people who have been successful do not have to make to
:02:58. > :03:08.match the sacrifice if they are elected. Church services have been
:03:09. > :03:11.held across South Africa to remember and honour the life of Nelson
:03:12. > :03:32.Mandela. The former president died on Thursday at the age of 95. Clive
:03:33. > :03:42.Myrie is in Soweto. Here, thousands of people throughout the day have
:03:43. > :03:45.been on this -- the street celebrating the life of Nelson
:03:46. > :03:50.Mandela. Millions of people across the country have chosen quiet prayer
:03:51. > :03:52.and contemplation to reflect on the achievement and legacy on the man
:03:53. > :04:13.they call the father of the nation. It has been a day. And prayers all
:04:14. > :04:18.over South Africa. -- a day for songs and prayers. The long life of
:04:19. > :04:24.Nelson Mandela has been commemorated in churches and hilltops. It is very
:04:25. > :04:36.difficult to find someone like Nelson Mandela. He was loved by
:04:37. > :04:44.everyone. It is very difficult. Nelson Mandela himself was raised in
:04:45. > :04:56.the Methodist Church. Giving this service in Johannesburg a particular
:04:57. > :05:03.resonance today. Sitting a few miles away today, the ex-wife of Nelson
:05:04. > :05:12.Mandela, Winnie. She is still very much in the public eye. He believed
:05:13. > :05:19.in forgiving and he forgave Dash even those who kept him in jail for
:05:20. > :05:27.27 years. Today was about all sorts of things Dash not least political.
:05:28. > :05:32.An AMC events, Mandela backed the party till the end. It has been in
:05:33. > :05:40.power for 20 years and it has just lost its most iconic asset. We are
:05:41. > :05:46.teaching our grandchildren to be loyal to this party. With or without
:05:47. > :05:58.Nelson Mandela. On the street outside, and abrupt change of mood.
:05:59. > :06:07.The this may be a country in morning but only to a point. There is no
:06:08. > :06:15.shortage of exceed rents here. -- exuberance. No time to be sad. We
:06:16. > :06:26.must celebrate for what he did for us. And that is the mood here now.
:06:27. > :06:35.More gratitude than tears in a young democracy shaped by extraordinary
:06:36. > :06:40.life. -- shaped by one extraordinary life. Nelson Mandela is a global
:06:41. > :06:47.icon, admired and revered around the world. In London, the Archbishop of
:06:48. > :06:50.Canterbury, Justin Welby, has led a service of remembrance at St Martin
:06:51. > :07:00.in the Fields in London. He praised the humanity of Nelson Mandela. The
:07:01. > :07:04.service was described as a tribute, but also a lament and press the
:07:05. > :07:11.South Africa, deprived of Nelson Mandela. He was that rarest of
:07:12. > :07:15.leaders. The Archbishop of Canterbury preached about his
:07:16. > :07:21.extraordinary capacity to forgive. He said Mr Mandela had rescued a
:07:22. > :07:26.country on the brink of civil war. I remember clearly the forecasts of
:07:27. > :07:30.tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of dead. When you see his
:07:31. > :07:37.capacity to turn that around, that says something about an inner force
:07:38. > :07:48.based in a vision of what humanity should be. He said Nelson Mandela
:07:49. > :07:52.had melted courage into the goodness -- into forgiveness. He had been
:07:53. > :07:59.motivated in part by Christian ideals. Saint Martin in the fields
:08:00. > :08:04.campaigned against apartheid. For some, today's service brought a
:08:05. > :08:12.sense of closure. Others wondered who would replace Mr Mandela. South
:08:13. > :08:17.Africa is of course in the middle of ten days of so many marking the
:08:18. > :08:23.death of Nelson Mandela. On Tuesday, there will be a memorial service and
:08:24. > :08:29.many heads of state have already indicated, including President Obama
:08:30. > :08:34.and the Queen, that they will be in attendance. One week from today, one
:08:35. > :08:40.of the world 's most revered statesman will be buried in his home
:08:41. > :08:43.village in the Eastern Cape. Three people are in custody in connection
:08:44. > :08:48.with new allegations that incidents in football matches have been fixed.
:08:49. > :08:51.The National Crime Agency confirmed it was examining claims passed to it
:08:52. > :08:53.by the Sun on Sunday. The newspaper reports allegations that former
:08:54. > :08:55.Portsmouth player Sam Sodje received large sums of money for getting
:08:56. > :09:16.himself sent off. Can you do it again this time this
:09:17. > :09:27.is the moment it is claimed money passed hands. The paper claims it
:09:28. > :09:29.was arranged with Sam Sodje, a former Portsmouth player, for an
:09:30. > :09:38.unknown footballer to receive a yellow card. Sam Sodje explains to
:09:39. > :09:42.the reporter he deliberately punched an opponent in the league one game
:09:43. > :09:48.between Portsmouth and Oldham in February of this year in order to be
:09:49. > :09:52.sent off. He claims he received ?70,000 in return. His manager
:09:53. > :09:59.remembers the moment. Sam came racing over will stop I did not see
:10:00. > :10:05.the incident. In the cold light of day, you cannot fathom out why he
:10:06. > :10:10.has done it. In a statement, his former club said, if these serious
:10:11. > :10:14.allegations are true, we are extremely shocked and saddened by
:10:15. > :10:18.them. This goes against our heart and integrity of the game. In a
:10:19. > :10:28.separate video, the paper also alleges that he fixes for another
:10:29. > :10:39.player to get a yellow card. The ball league says it treats these
:10:40. > :10:46.claims of criminal activity with utmost seriousness. The football
:10:47. > :10:52.Association says it is cooperating with the police over this enquiry.
:10:53. > :10:57.In a separate investigation, four men were charged in connection with
:10:58. > :11:01.match fixing, it is believed in non-league football. These claims
:11:02. > :11:04.will be of grave concern to the football Association and those
:11:05. > :11:09.authorities tasks with keeping the integrity of football intact. Three
:11:10. > :11:11.men, believed to be victims of slavery, have been rescued following
:11:12. > :11:18.a series of raids in south Gloucestershire and Bristol. Avon
:11:19. > :11:20.and Somerset Police said the raids followed an investigation into
:11:21. > :11:24.forced labour and human trafficking and a 'substantial quantity' of cash
:11:25. > :11:30.had been found at one address. Two people have been arrested. We are
:11:31. > :11:35.supporting three people at the moment that we found on the site we
:11:36. > :11:42.visited. We visited three traveller sites today. A commercial building
:11:43. > :11:46.and three residential properties. We now are looking after those victims
:11:47. > :11:49.and taking them to a place of safety and giving them the medical
:11:50. > :11:53.attention and support that they need. Six million people in the UK
:11:54. > :11:55.are classed as living in poverty even though they are in work,
:11:56. > :11:59.according to the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. A report by the social
:12:00. > :12:02.policy charity says more working households are in poverty than
:12:03. > :12:04.non-working ones, with low pay and part-time work contributing to an
:12:05. > :12:12.unprecedented fall in living standards.
:12:13. > :12:19.Working hard is meant to pay. Today's report suggests, just
:12:20. > :12:23.because you have a job does not protect you from poverty. An annual
:12:24. > :12:28.study has found of the 30 million people living below the poverty
:12:29. > :12:33.line, for the first time, more than half are actually employed. People
:12:34. > :12:38.on low incomes are working and want to work longer but they are unable
:12:39. > :12:41.to find the work. Of course, as a result of this week in labour
:12:42. > :12:47.markets, pay rates are low and employers are still not needing to
:12:48. > :12:52.compete for workers. These two things together mean people are
:12:53. > :12:56.stuck in low paid work, short hours. In the last year, reports suggest a
:12:57. > :13:01.surge in the number of people relying on food banks. People are
:13:02. > :13:06.counted as being in poverty if the household income is below 60% of the
:13:07. > :13:10.median. Today's report says average incomes have fallen by 8% in the
:13:11. > :13:14.last five years and working adults with no children are now the most
:13:15. > :13:21.likely group to be living in poverty. Ministers insist that
:13:22. > :13:24.employment remains the best route out of poverty and say their welfare
:13:25. > :13:27.reforms will encourage people to get a job. It has been a month since
:13:28. > :13:31.Typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines killing around 6,000 people. Those
:13:32. > :13:34.who survived, many of them still without shelter, are trying to clear
:13:35. > :13:39.away the devastation that lines many streets before they can then turn to
:13:40. > :13:43.rebuilding their lives. The BBC's Jon Donnison is in one of the worst
:13:44. > :13:50.hit areas, the city of Tacloban, on the island of Leyte. One month has
:13:51. > :13:55.gone but the full force of Typhoon Diane is far from forgotten in
:13:56. > :13:58.Tacloban, tens of thousands of people are living without shelter.
:13:59. > :14:05.If you have anything that resembles a house, you are lucky. This woman
:14:06. > :14:17.lives here with her one-year-old son. Everything is destroyed. Our
:14:18. > :14:22.home. We lost everything. It is very hard. But the city is slowly
:14:23. > :14:29.cleaning up. Thousands have signed up for cash for work programmes, aid
:14:30. > :14:37.agencies trying to put money into people 's pockets paying them
:14:38. > :14:41.everyday to shift the debris. Today the main market is busy although
:14:42. > :14:51.prices are twice as high as before the Typhoon. We can survive this. We
:14:52. > :14:57.can fight for our businesses. One month on, Tacloban is slowly getting
:14:58. > :15:02.back on its feet. Hundreds of millions have now been pledged in
:15:03. > :15:11.foreign aid. The scale of what is needed means rebuilding is going to
:15:12. > :15:20.take years and not months. Tacloban is remembering the dead. But also
:15:21. > :15:22.offering prayers for the living. One months on, this city still has a
:15:23. > :15:31.long, long way to go. Sport now. And, in the cricket,
:15:32. > :15:34.England's last four batsmen must survive the entire final day of the
:15:35. > :15:43.second Ashes Test to snatch an improbable draw.
:15:44. > :15:52.Everyone knew the news on Sunday in Adelaide. The match was gone, the
:15:53. > :15:57.Ashes were gone. With the wind? Of all the ways to get out, hoisting
:15:58. > :16:02.the ball to the man on the boundary is one of the least distinguished.
:16:03. > :16:06.The fielder was still waiting in the deep when Michael Carberry whacked
:16:07. > :16:12.the ball to him. Then something new. Australia had to wait for a
:16:13. > :16:17.wicket. A 100 partnership between Joe Root and Kevin Peterson, who got
:16:18. > :16:28.close to his full swagger. It could not last, could it? And misjudgement
:16:29. > :16:37.and another wicket. He is far better than that and he knows it. Joe route
:16:38. > :16:43.fought on 287. 170 145. Route was mortified. Ben Stokes stuck it out
:16:44. > :16:50.for two hours and was engaged in plenty of chat. The umpire had to
:16:51. > :16:55.intervene. The day ended with Matt prior and Stuart Broad at the
:16:56. > :17:00.crease. Players were locked in aggravation. Is this really what
:17:01. > :17:04.makes Ashes cricket? It has certainly become part of this
:17:05. > :17:08.series. Australia will have the entire day to take formal English
:17:09. > :17:12.wickets unless we have some of the rain that has been forecast. It
:17:13. > :17:18.would take a mighty deluge to cool down these teams. There is more
:17:19. > :17:20.throughout the evening on the BBC News Channel.
