:00:08. > :00:12.Tonight at 10.00pm. We are in Soweto, on a day when millions of
:00:13. > :00:16.South Africans gather to remember the live of Nelson Mandela.
:00:17. > :00:24.From cathedrals to meeting halls, a day of prayer for the man who came
:00:25. > :00:28.to embody a nation. No time to be sad. We must celebrate for what he
:00:29. > :00:33.did for us. Nelson Mandela in his own hand - the defiant speech from
:00:34. > :00:37.the dock as he faced a possible death sentence. Also in tonight's
:00:38. > :00:41.programme: Six people are now in custody after
:00:42. > :00:47.new allegations of fixing in football.
:00:48. > :00:50.MPs are in line for an inflation-beating 11% pay rise,
:00:51. > :00:56.despite opposition from all three party leaders.
:00:57. > :00:58.And how long can England keep the Australians at bay, as the final day
:00:59. > :01:25.of the Second Test approaches? Good evening. We are in Soweto,
:01:26. > :01:29.outside Nelson Mandela's former home, which has become a place of
:01:30. > :01:34.pilgrimage. Across the country, too, it has been a day of prayer. In
:01:35. > :01:37.churches and temples, meeting halls and mosques, they have been
:01:38. > :01:42.remembering his extraordinary life. At one service, President Jacob Zuma
:01:43. > :01:47.called on South Africans to remember the values Mr Mandela had stood for.
:01:48. > :01:53.Andrew Harding has our first report tonight.
:01:54. > :02:05.It's been ady for songs and prayers all over South Africa -- it's been a
:02:06. > :02:10.day. Nelson Mandela's long life
:02:11. > :02:15.commemorated in churches and on hilltops. I think he is going
:02:16. > :02:21.straight to heaven. It is very difficult to find someone like
:02:22. > :02:30.Nelson Mandela, who is loved by everyone. Very, very hard. Nelson
:02:31. > :02:35.Mandela himself was raised in the methodist Church. The greatest human
:02:36. > :02:40.being that society has ever produced. Giving this service in
:02:41. > :02:47.Johannesburg, a particular resonance today. The last time he came to this
:02:48. > :02:52.church, he sat there in front of the pew. Sitting a few miles away today,
:02:53. > :02:56.Nelson Mandela ex-wife, Winnie, still very much in the public eye
:02:57. > :03:02.here, alongside South Africa's current leader. He believed in
:03:03. > :03:12.forgiving and he forgave. Even those whop kept him in jail for 27 years.
:03:13. > :03:18.But today was about all sorts of faiths. Not least, political. An ANC
:03:19. > :03:24.event, Mandela backed the party until the end but it's been in power
:03:25. > :03:30.here for 20 years and it's just lost its most iconic asset. We are
:03:31. > :03:34.loyalty to the party and we are treating our grandchildren to be
:03:35. > :03:39.loyal to the party. With or without Mandela? With or without Mandela.
:03:40. > :03:48.But on the street outside, an abrupt change of mood. This maybe a country
:03:49. > :03:52.in mourning but only up to a point. We have stumbled on this city
:03:53. > :03:58.carnival. As you can see, there is no shortage of exuberance here. You
:03:59. > :04:03.cannot be sad over someone who has brought this to us. Never be sad
:04:04. > :04:07.over something that has actually brought our country to where we are
:04:08. > :04:16.now. No, no time to be sad. We just celebrate for what he did for us.
:04:17. > :04:19.And that is the mood here now. More gratitude than tears, in a young
:04:20. > :04:27.democracy, shaped by one extraordinary life.
:04:28. > :04:32.South Africans there remembering a life of leadership and sacrifice,
:04:33. > :04:36.famously Nelson Mandela was a man who was prepared to make the
:04:37. > :04:41.ultimate sacrifice. It came at his trial in 1964 when he and other
:04:42. > :04:44.leaders in the fight against apartheid were facing a possible
:04:45. > :04:48.death sentence. Mr Mandela made a statement from the dock, which has
:04:49. > :04:54.gone down as one of the great speeches of the 20th Century. Nelson
:04:55. > :04:59.Mandela's legal notes in his own hand. As a partner in the country's
:05:00. > :05:03.first black law firm, he defended many others in their battles with
:05:04. > :05:08.apartheid's twisted legal system. Now, as he made the case for
:05:09. > :05:17.democracy, it was his own fate, his own life that was at stake.
:05:18. > :05:36.It is an adeal for which I have lived for and for which I hope to
:05:37. > :05:41.see. But my Ford, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." Those
:05:42. > :05:45.words have echoed through South Africa's history. It is probably one
:05:46. > :05:48.of the most famous speeches given in any courtroom anywhere in the world
:05:49. > :05:51.and here he is again making notes for a statement he would have
:05:52. > :05:56.delivered, had he been sentenced to death. Point two, "I meant
:05:57. > :06:00.everything I said." No hint of compromise. Just imagine, this is a
:06:01. > :06:06.man who thought he might be facing death.
:06:07. > :06:09.Virtually the entire leadership of the African National Congress was on
:06:10. > :06:13.trial. One of their defence team told me he was worried the speech
:06:14. > :06:19.might actually invite a death sentence. I am credited with
:06:20. > :06:25.suggesting a small amendment, that he should not seek martyr dom
:06:26. > :06:39.because that may be exploited by the regime. He was concerned with the
:06:40. > :06:43.slogan - free Mandela. He preferred - free all political prisoners, but
:06:44. > :06:46.he was the number one. Number one accused and eventually the last to
:06:47. > :06:52.be freed. Now, as he leaves the stage, his country must ask whether
:06:53. > :07:00.it has lived up for the ideal for which he was once prepared to die.
:07:01. > :07:03.Well, with me now is oir South Africa correspondent. Tell us what
:07:04. > :07:07.we can look forward to in the coming week? Yes, the government has
:07:08. > :07:10.announced a series of events stashgtsing on Tuesday with the
:07:11. > :07:16.memorial service to be held, not far from where we are at the FNB
:07:17. > :07:21.stadium, a 95,000-seater stadium. There we expect at least 60 heads of
:07:22. > :07:26.government to attend, from President Obama to India's president. So
:07:27. > :07:32.that's what is expected to happen on Tuesday. Then on Wednesday, the
:07:33. > :07:38.lying in state begins in Pretoria. The government has requested that
:07:39. > :07:45.South Africans should form a Guard of Honour as Mr Mandela's hears
:07:46. > :07:49.leaves number 1 Military Hospital from there to the centre. And then
:07:50. > :07:54.you end up on Sunday next week where you have the funeral, which is going
:07:55. > :07:58.to be held in the rolling hills of the Eastern Cape, where Mr Mandela's
:07:59. > :08:02.home is. There we expect a small number of dignitaries to attend,
:08:03. > :08:06.including the Prince of Wales, representk the Queen. Thank you very
:08:07. > :08:10.much. Is so, as you can see, a big week ahead for this country. We will
:08:11. > :08:17.be suffering it, of course, on BBC News.
:08:18. > :08:21.In other news - police are questioning six people over
:08:22. > :08:25.allegations that incidents in football matches have been fixed.
:08:26. > :08:29.The National Crime Agency, confirmed it was examining claims passed to it
:08:30. > :08:35.by the Sun on Sunday. The newspaper secretly recorded former Portsmouth
:08:36. > :08:41.player, Sam Sodje, claimk he'd been paid ?7 o 0,000 for getting sent off
:08:42. > :08:47.in February D -- claimed he'd been paid ?70,000 This is the moment it
:08:48. > :08:54.is claimed an alleged plot to fix elements of a Football League match
:08:55. > :08:57.took place. Collecting a ?12,500 deposit from a Sun on Sunday
:08:58. > :09:04.reporter, posing as a representative of a Far East betting syndicate, the
:09:05. > :09:11.paper claimed it arranged with Sam Sodje, for an unknown footballer to
:09:12. > :09:17.receive a yellow card. Zbll illegal sipped Kates often bet
:09:18. > :09:20.on a pre-arranged fix. Sam Sodje explains to the reporter,
:09:21. > :09:28.deliberately punched a reporter in a League One game between Portsmouth
:09:29. > :09:34.this year in order to get sent off, receiving ?70,000 in return. His
:09:35. > :09:37.manager remembers the moment He came racing over. I didn't see the
:09:38. > :09:40.incident. You see it in the cold light of day afterwards. You see
:09:41. > :09:45.what he has done. You knted fathom out why he has done it. In a
:09:46. > :09:55.statement, Sam Sodje's former club, Portsmouth, said:
:09:56. > :10:04.In a separate incident, shown in the video, the paper also alleges that
:10:05. > :10:08.Sam Sodje arranges for Oldham Athletic's Cristian Montano, seen on
:10:09. > :10:13.the right, to get a yell yes card in the next game A yellow carded in the
:10:14. > :10:18.next half. In that game he was an unused substitute. The Football
:10:19. > :10:22.League say they treat these matters with the utmost seriousness. The
:10:23. > :10:25.National Crime Agency says six men are now in custody in relation to
:10:26. > :10:29.the claims. The Football Association say they are cooperating with the
:10:30. > :10:33.police. In a separate investigation, four men were charged in connection
:10:34. > :10:37.with match-fixing, in it is believed non-league football but these claims
:10:38. > :10:41.that matches further up football's pyramid have been targeted will be
:10:42. > :10:45.of great concern to the FA and those authorities tasked with keeping
:10:46. > :10:51.keeping the integrity and the very soul of football in tact.
:10:52. > :10:55.MPs look set to get a pay increase of 11%, five times the rate of
:10:56. > :10:59.inflation. The move has been opposed by the three main party leaders. The
:11:00. > :11:03.proposals by the independent body that sets MPs' salaries, will take
:11:04. > :11:06.effect after the next general election.
:11:07. > :11:10.They don't normally agree on much, but one thing that unites the
:11:11. > :11:15.leaders of the three main parties that their complete opposition to a
:11:16. > :11:19.?7,000 pay rise for MPs after the next election.
:11:20. > :11:24.And the Liberal Democrat at the Treasury, who has been tightening
:11:25. > :11:29.the purse strings for public settingor workers, thinks it is a
:11:30. > :11:33.mistake, too. I think it would be wholly inappropriate for MPs to get
:11:34. > :11:37.such a large pay rise at a time wheneverry other public sentor
:11:38. > :11:43.worker sees their pay rises capped at 1%. Currently an MP earns just
:11:44. > :11:48.under ?66,500. The pay watchdog says that should rise to ?74,000 after
:11:49. > :11:52.the election, a jump of 11%. While politicians might be embarrassed
:11:53. > :11:56.about their double-digit pay rise, there is not much they can do about
:11:57. > :12:00.it. Because Parliament gave away the right to set MPs' pay before the
:12:01. > :12:05.last election. There is also no mechanism for them to refuse it. If
:12:06. > :12:09.they want to give the money away, said one source, they can hand it
:12:10. > :12:12.over to the local dogs home. Overall the taxpayer will not out INEBREAK
:12:13. > :12:17.OUT of pocket because their pay rise
:12:18. > :12:22.will be balanced by extra pension contributions they'll have to make.
:12:23. > :12:28.Some think the pay rise is justified. People don't have to make
:12:29. > :12:33.too much of a fagrifies if they get themselves elected. It was the
:12:34. > :12:37.expenses scandal in 2009 that Prompted them to hand their over the
:12:38. > :12:41.decision on their pay to an independent body, not that that
:12:42. > :12:47.saved them any embarrassment this time round.
:12:48. > :12:51.Antigovernment protesters in Ukraine have toppled a statue of Lenin.
:12:52. > :12:53.Hundreds of thousands gathered in independent square, expressing
:12:54. > :12:58.frustration at the Government's decision to reject a trade deal with
:12:59. > :13:02.the European Union, in favour of forging closer links with Russia.
:13:03. > :13:08.This report contains flash photography.
:13:09. > :13:16.In Kiev tonight, a Communist idol came crushing down. Antigovernment
:13:17. > :13:20.protesters, toppled Vladimir Lenin, the Russian revolutionary. With
:13:21. > :13:24.sledge Hammers they smashed to piece this is symbol of Russian influence
:13:25. > :13:30.over u kravenlt everyone be wanted their piece of Lenin, it is the most
:13:31. > :13:36.sought-after souvenir in Kiev Ukrainia is free. It is a symbol of
:13:37. > :13:40.our revolution and our freedom. The destruction of this statue shows how
:13:41. > :13:45.keen these people are to reject Ukraine's traditional ties with
:13:46. > :13:48.Russia. But they suspect their president is trying to push their
:13:49. > :13:53.country towards an economic union with Moscow. Earlier, hundreds of
:13:54. > :13:58.thousands of demonstrator has packed out the main square. They demanded
:13:59. > :14:04.the government resign for rejecting closer ties with the EU. These are
:14:05. > :14:11.the demands of the Ukrainian people. They fight for justice and for their
:14:12. > :14:14.freedoms and liberties. Some Government supporters did make
:14:15. > :14:20.it on to the street. There were long rows of riot police to protect them.
:14:21. > :14:24.Tonight, the pro Europe protests are continuing.
:14:25. > :14:27.But Ukraine's Security Service says it is investigating some of the
:14:28. > :14:35.opposition leaders on suspicion of planning a coup.
:14:36. > :14:39.Three men, believed to be victims of slavery have been rescued following
:14:40. > :14:42.a series of raids in South Gloucestershire and Bristol. Avon
:14:43. > :14:45.and Somerset Police say the raids followed an investigation into
:14:46. > :14:48.forced labour and human trafficking, and that a substantial quauntedity
:14:49. > :14:53.of cash had been found at one address. Two people have been
:14:54. > :14:58.arrested. We visited three traveller sites
:14:59. > :15:04.today. A commercial building, and three residential properties. And
:15:05. > :15:08.we're new looking after those victims - taking them to a place of
:15:09. > :15:13.safety and giving them the medical attention and the support that they
:15:14. > :15:16.need. Six million people in the UK are classed as living in poverty,
:15:17. > :15:21.even though they are in work. That's according to the Joseph Rowntree
:15:22. > :15:24.Foundation. A report by the social policy charity says low pay and
:15:25. > :15:29.part-time work have contributed to an unprecedented fall in living
:15:30. > :15:33.standards. Working hard is meant to pay. But
:15:34. > :15:39.today's report suggests just because you have a job, doesn't protect you
:15:40. > :15:43.from poverty. An annual study has found of the 13 million people
:15:44. > :15:48.living below the poverty line, for the first time, more than half are
:15:49. > :15:52.actually employed. People on low incomes are working
:15:53. > :15:56.and want to work longer but are unable it find the work and, of
:15:57. > :16:00.course, they are also, as a result of this weak labour market, pay
:16:01. > :16:05.rates are low, employers are still not needing to compete for workers
:16:06. > :16:10.and these two things together mean people are stuck in low-paid work,
:16:11. > :16:13.short hours. In the last year, reports suggest a surge in the
:16:14. > :16:18.number of people relying on food banks. People are counted adds being
:16:19. > :16:24.in poverty if their household income is below 60% of the median. Today's
:16:25. > :16:28.report says average incomes have fallen by 8% in the last five years
:16:29. > :16:32.and working adults with no children are now the most likely group to be
:16:33. > :16:36.living in poverty. But ministers insist that employment
:16:37. > :16:40.remains the best route out of poverty and say their welfare
:16:41. > :16:46.reforms will encourage people to get a job.
:16:47. > :16:51.In Central African Republic, three days of violence have left over 400
:16:52. > :16:57.people dead according to troops who have arrived in the city of Bangui.
:16:58. > :17:05.French troops are begun controlling the streets to restore order between
:17:06. > :17:10.rival Christian and Muslim militia. The country has been in turmoil
:17:11. > :17:16.since the president was ousted in March. It has been a month since
:17:17. > :17:20.Typhoon Haiyan struck the Philippines. Many of those who
:17:21. > :17:25.survived are trying to rebuild their lives.
:17:26. > :17:31.We've returned to one of the worst-hit areas, Tacloban. One month
:17:32. > :17:36.has gone but the full force of try foon hayian is not forgotten N
:17:37. > :17:40.Tacloban, tens of thousands of people are still living without
:17:41. > :17:46.shelteder. If you have anything that still resembles a house, you are
:17:47. > :17:54.lucky. This woman lives here with her one-year-old son, Clyde.
:17:55. > :17:58.Everything is destroyed. Our home. We lost our aunts. That's why it is
:17:59. > :18:03.very hard. But the city is slowly cleaning up.
:18:04. > :18:06.Thousands have signed up for cash-for-work programmes. Aid
:18:07. > :18:11.agencies, trying to put money in people's pockets, paying them a few
:18:12. > :18:16.dollars a day to shift the mountains of debris. A month ago, people were
:18:17. > :18:20.scavenging for food, but today the main market is busy, although prices
:18:21. > :18:32.are twice as high as before the typhoon.
:18:33. > :18:37.You can fight for your business. One month on, Tacloban is slowly getting
:18:38. > :18:43.back on its feet. Hundreds of millions have now been pledged in
:18:44. > :18:50.foreign aid. But the scale of what is needed, means rebuilding is going
:18:51. > :18:54.to take years, not months. A day of prayer and remembrance.
:18:55. > :19:01.Tacloban is remembering the dead but also offering prayers for the
:19:02. > :19:10.living. One month on, this city still has a long, long way to go.
:19:11. > :19:18.Let's take you to the sport now. Good evening.
:19:19. > :19:22.Thank you. In a couple of hours' time, England will resume play on
:19:23. > :19:26.the final day of the Second Ashes Test against Australia but they know
:19:27. > :19:31.that their last four batsmen must survive all day if they are to avoid
:19:32. > :19:36.defeat. England still need another 284 runs to win after a fourth day
:19:37. > :19:41.which featured more tension and confrontation between the two teams.
:19:42. > :19:45.Joe Wilson reports from Adelaide. Everyone knew the news on Sunday in
:19:46. > :19:51.Adelaide, the match was gone, the Ashes were gone, England were gone.
:19:52. > :19:56.With the wind. Of all the ways to get out, hoisting the ball to the
:19:57. > :19:59.man on the boundary is one of the least distinguished. Cooke made one.
:20:00. > :20:03.The fielder was still waiting there in the deep when Michael carbury
:20:04. > :20:09.whacked the ball to him. Then something new. Australia had to wait
:20:10. > :20:13.for a wicket. 100 partnership between Joe Root, an embodiment of
:20:14. > :20:18.concentration, and Kevin Pietersen, who got close to his full swagger.
:20:19. > :20:23.It couldn't last, could it? No. A misjudgment from Pietersen and
:20:24. > :20:27.Siddle had his wicket yet again. Ian Bell hit a toss from a spinner to a
:20:28. > :20:33.fielder. He is far better than that, and he knows it. Joe Root fought on
:20:34. > :20:42.to 87 when the ball brushed off his bat, looped off his leg and was
:20:43. > :20:48.snafled. Ben Stokes stuck it out for two hours and was engaged in plenty
:20:49. > :20:52.of chat. The confrontation became physical and the umpire had to
:20:53. > :20:56.agree. Mitchell Johnson tried to get them
:20:57. > :21:01.out and players were locked in aggravation. Is this really what
:21:02. > :21:06.makes Ashes' cricket? It has become part of this Series. So Australia
:21:07. > :21:09.will have the entire day to get four miles per hour English wickets
:21:10. > :21:16.unless we have some of the rain forecast. Mind you, I think it would
:21:17. > :21:20.take a mighty deluge to cool these teams down. Match of the day 2
:21:21. > :21:23.follow us here on BBC One. If you don't want to know today's Premier
:21:24. > :21:28.League results, tomb to look away and turn the sound down. Meszut Ozil
:21:29. > :21:34.scored in the 80th minute to give Arsenal the lead but Gerard
:21:35. > :21:40.Deulofeu, 19-year-old, equalised for Everton four minutes later. 1-1 the
:21:41. > :21:44.final score. Arsenal are five points clear at the top of the table.
:21:45. > :21:54.Fulham also won today, beating Aston Villa 2-0. In the Heineken Cup there
:21:55. > :21:58.were wins for Leicester money be Munster Ulster and Connacht.
:21:59. > :22:02.Leicester boosted their chances of qualifying for the quarter-finals
:22:03. > :22:06.with a victory over Montpellier. Two tries helped Leicester to a 41-32
:22:07. > :22:10.win. The UK Snooker Championship final is
:22:11. > :22:14.heading for a close finish. World number one, Neil Robertson is one
:22:15. > :22:17.frame away from the title after defending champion, Mark Selby
:22:18. > :22:25.missed this black that would have made it 8-8. Robertson is now 9-7
:22:26. > :22:29.ahead with the winner, the first to 10 frames. At the age of 49, Miguel
