:01:38. > :01:40.Good evening, and welcome to the BBC News at Six.
:01:41. > :01:42.The Chancellor George Osborne has set out a key battleground
:01:43. > :01:44.for the next election, pledging that a future Conservative
:01:45. > :01:47.government would freeze all benefits for two years, except those
:01:48. > :01:49.for the disabled, pensioners and women on maternity leave.
:01:50. > :01:54.He claimed it would save ?3 billion a year.
:01:55. > :01:58.He also warned of more cuts ahead as part of a programme to reduce
:01:59. > :02:06.government spending by a total of ?25 billion by 2018.
:02:07. > :02:09.Our Political Editor Nick Robinson was listening to the Chancellor's
:02:10. > :02:16.speech at the the Tory Party conference in Birmingham.
:02:17. > :02:22.The economy's growing again, and an election is getting close. Time you
:02:23. > :02:27.might think for the Chancellor to promise you a give away. Well if you
:02:28. > :02:33.do this that, you couldn't be more wrong. Is this almost... It is know
:02:34. > :02:37.where near done with George Osborne's message in Birmingham. He
:02:38. > :02:41.told the Tory conference that the deficit was still nowhere near being
:02:42. > :02:46.eliminated and so spending cuts were nowhere near over. He claimed that
:02:47. > :02:54.unlike Labour, he would level with people. Here are the facts. The
:02:55. > :03:00.latest Treasury estimate is that to eliminate the deficit, requires a
:03:01. > :03:03.further ?25 billion of permanent public expenditure savings, or new
:03:04. > :03:10.taxes. With tax rises off the Tory agenda,
:03:11. > :03:15.all that 25 billion has to come, from spending cuts. Almost half of
:03:16. > :03:19.it from cutting benefits. Working age benefits in Britain will have to
:03:20. > :03:25.be frozen for two years. This is the choice Britain needs to take, to
:03:26. > :03:29.protect our economic stability and to secure a better future. The
:03:30. > :03:33.fairest way to reduce Welfare Bills is to make sure that the bet fins
:03:34. > :03:37.are not rising faster than the wages of the taxpayers who are paying for
:03:38. > :03:44.them. The Tory plan to freeze benefits
:03:45. > :03:47.from 2016 would affect those out of work claiming Job Seekers Allowance
:03:48. > :03:51.but also those in work entitled to tax credits. Five million people and
:03:52. > :03:56.ten million households in all. It would not affect those on pension,
:03:57. > :03:59.ESA, if you can't work, and maternity pay.
:04:00. > :04:03.Just down the road from the Conference, is a charity that sells
:04:04. > :04:07.cheap second-hand furniture to people struggling to affect it. Many
:04:08. > :04:11.of them not out of work, but in badly paid jobs. I spoke to two
:04:12. > :04:16.volunteers here, Martin and Sue about how a freeze might affect
:04:17. > :04:21.them. If your benefits were frozen, so you get if same amount as now,
:04:22. > :04:26.but it doesn't go up with inplating, would that be a big problem? Yes,
:04:27. > :04:31.because the prices will rocket, but my money is not going to rocket. It
:04:32. > :04:36.should raise, raise up with the inflation, because at the end of the
:04:37. > :04:41.day, I struggle to pay all my bills and try and pay them off and have
:04:42. > :04:45.something left for food. In recent years benefits have risen faster
:04:46. > :04:50.than wages which is why the Tories believe it is fair and popular If it
:04:51. > :04:54.is going to get the deficit down it seems like a reasonable starting
:04:55. > :04:57.point. From what I understand he is making allowances for pensioners and
:04:58. > :05:00.those in need. It should be stricter. Definitely. There is a lot
:05:01. > :05:04.people that have been able to get away with it for a long time. I
:05:05. > :05:08.would rather they went off the big companies and their tax than go
:05:09. > :05:11.after people who are already poor. Funnily enough back at the Tory
:05:12. > :05:16.conference getting business to pay more of the tax they owe was the
:05:17. > :05:21.other half of the Osbourne announcement twin pack. And some
:05:22. > :05:25.technology companies go to extraordinary lengths to pay little
:05:26. > :05:30.or no tax here. If you abuse our tax system, you abuse the trust of the
:05:31. > :05:35.British people, and my message to these companies is clear. We will
:05:36. > :05:39.put a stop to it, low taxes but low taxes that are paid. He didn't say
:05:40. > :05:46.which company he was targeting but one part of the answer is Google.
:05:47. > :05:52.Who like Apple have channelled business and profits through low tax
:05:53. > :05:59.island. Alongside the promise of pain the Chancellor stressed there
:06:00. > :06:06.would be gain, promising to scrap tax on inherented tax anded by more
:06:07. > :06:09.houses if he is re-elected Choose fairness, choose freedom. Choose
:06:10. > :06:13.David Cameron, choose the Conservatives. Choose the future.
:06:14. > :06:19.The Tories here are taking quite a gamble. That beyond this haul the
:06:20. > :06:23.public will choose what they are now offering. Cutting benefits sounds
:06:24. > :06:30.tough but the political we question is whether it is fair. That may
:06:31. > :06:33.depend on whether you assume people are claiming are strongers or are
:06:34. > :06:37.people who are struggling to make ends meet. Often in work on very low
:06:38. > :06:43.wages. Well, as we've just heard,
:06:44. > :06:45.the Chancellor's pledge to freeze some working benefits
:06:46. > :06:47.if the Conservatives win the next election still leaves him
:06:48. > :06:50.with ?25 billion worth of savings to Our Economics Editor Robert Peston
:06:51. > :07:01.has been looking at the figures. We are spending money again, the
:07:02. > :07:07.economy is recovering strongly, and the big question, as we approach the
:07:08. > :07:11.general election is what will secure that recovery, for the long-term?
:07:12. > :07:15.For George Osborne it is all ant eliminating the gap between what the
:07:16. > :07:22.Government takes from taxes and spends on public services. The
:07:23. > :07:27.deficit. That was a record 11.3% of GDP in 2009-10 after the crash, and
:07:28. > :07:32.when he became Chancellor. Mr Osborne's spending cuts and tax
:07:33. > :07:35.rises since then should cut it to 5.5% of national income, by the time
:07:36. > :07:41.of the next general election in 2015. But that means Government debt
:07:42. > :07:45.would still have risen bay massive 95.5 billion this year and maybe
:07:46. > :07:52.more than that. His goal, to the next Parliament is to shrink the
:07:53. > :07:57.deficit to zero, generate a surplus. To hit this target of a surplus in
:07:58. > :08:02.four years there would have to be ?25 billion of spending cuts in just
:08:03. > :08:06.the first two years of the next Parliament, with ?13 billion saved
:08:07. > :08:13.by shrinking the budget of Whitehall departments and ?12 billion from
:08:14. > :08:16.reducing welfare spending. Today, Mr Osborne announced that ?3.2 billion
:08:17. > :08:22.of those savings would come from freezing benefits for two years. But
:08:23. > :08:25.he promised that pencions would not be frozen, even though some say
:08:26. > :08:32.pensioners have had a good deal, with the bill for pensions
:08:33. > :08:38.increasing 11% since 2010. If there were a two-year freeze on payments
:08:39. > :08:42.to pensioner, that would raise a useful ?5 billion.
:08:43. > :08:46.The bad news is that we are probably not even half way through the total
:08:47. > :08:50.spending cuts planned through this Parliament and next. It is looking
:08:51. > :08:54.tougher over the next Parliament but not only are we going to be cutting
:08:55. > :08:57.or is the Government looking to cut as fast next Parliament as this
:08:58. > :09:02.Parliament, obviously the easier cuts are gone, it is going to look
:09:03. > :09:06.difficult to keep on at that rate of reducing public spending. Now, a
:09:07. > :09:10.Labour Government would cut almost 30 billion less in the next
:09:11. > :09:14.Parliament than the Tories because it is not aiming for an overall
:09:15. > :09:18.surplus but would only balance the budget excluding investment. So,
:09:19. > :09:21.there is now a sharp economic divide between the Tories and Labour,
:09:22. > :09:30.probably the widest for more than 20 years.
:09:31. > :09:34.Let us talk to Nick Robinson. As we heard there, the Conservatives still
:09:35. > :09:37.have a way to go in terms of reducing the deficit with the
:09:38. > :09:40.Chancellor careful to set out a difference between the Conservatives
:09:41. > :09:44.and Labour when it comes to how they do it. You know what, if anybody
:09:45. > :09:49.decide to write one of those books that you can buy in the shop, how to
:09:50. > :09:54.win an election made simple, I have a hunch they won't write a chapter
:09:55. > :09:57.that suggests just before an election you should tell five
:09:58. > :10:02.million people we are going to cut the value of what the Government
:10:03. > :10:06.gives you. Now why on earth is George Osborne doing it? I think his
:10:07. > :10:09.calculation is simple. He will get credit for telling light it is. For
:10:10. > :10:13.levelling with the British people, for spelling out some of the bad
:10:14. > :10:16.choices that might lie on the other side of an election. He is doing
:10:17. > :10:20.something else. He is trying to flush the Labour Party out, force
:10:21. > :10:24.them to either say we don't need to make cuts at all because as Robert
:10:25. > :10:29.said, Labour believe you don't need to cut spending so fast, you don't
:10:30. > :10:33.need to cut borrowing so fast, because you can still make the
:10:34. > :10:37.changes they want, and cut the deficit. So George Osborne wants to
:10:38. > :10:41.flush them out on either not making the cuts at all or to force them to
:10:42. > :10:46.spell out other cuts they would make instead. That is the gamble he is
:10:47. > :10:49.taking and one other too, the gamble that people will judge this to be
:10:50. > :10:50.fair. Tens of thousands of pro-democracy
:10:51. > :10:52.protestors are still occupying The police withdrew
:10:53. > :10:56.after pepper spray and tear gas The protesters are angry at China's
:10:57. > :11:00.plans to vet candidates for Hong They want a free choice
:11:01. > :11:04.of candidates for the post of chief executive,
:11:05. > :11:06.which Beijing has ruled out. From Hong Kong, our China Editor
:11:07. > :11:28.Carrie Gracie sent this report. The financial system did not
:11:29. > :11:34.collapse. And there was no chaos. So much for the dire warnings from the
:11:35. > :11:38.Hong Kong Government and Beijing. There were no buses but no-one wants
:11:39. > :11:43.to leave any way. After last night's tear gas, they passed their time
:11:44. > :11:49.preparing remedies, but the riot police never showed.
:11:50. > :11:56.All ages and background, even one billionaire. If we can't be touched
:11:57. > :12:03.by the young kids, we are not human beings. These kids are wonderful.
:12:04. > :12:07.They have done a great job. But there are voices warning that
:12:08. > :12:11.the protest is illegal, and dangerous.
:12:12. > :12:16.We are part of China. We need to work within the framework opof our
:12:17. > :12:22.constitution. There is no point in stirring up confrontation between
:12:23. > :12:31.our motherland and ourselves. As night fell, the crowd swelled.
:12:32. > :12:35.Sending Beijing a message, that they're a pose colonial generation
:12:36. > :12:41.who won't put up with exchanging one set of masters for another. So they
:12:42. > :12:46.want rid of a leader answerable to Beijing and free elections for a new
:12:47. > :12:51.one answerable to Hong Kong instead I am optimistic. I hope we can give
:12:52. > :12:57.more pressure and get back our suffrage. This Wednesday, the first

:13:13. > :13:17.to look at this instead. 1.3 billion Chinese citizens must
:13:18. > :13:21.not be allowed to look though. On the mainland there is tight sensor
:13:22. > :13:26.ship of these extraordinary scenes and the longer Hong Kong's defiance
:13:27. > :13:27.goes on, the more humiliating and dangerous it feels to China's

:13:48. > :13:49.an explicit picture of himself. The Sunday Mirror insists the
:13:50. > :13:52.story was in the public interest. Our correspondent David
:13:53. > :14:05.Sillito has the details. Confused, shocked, exploited. The
:14:06. > :14:09.feelings of this woman, a Swedish model whose photos were used without
:14:10. > :14:12.permission in a newspaper sting that has brought down a British
:14:13. > :14:16.Government minister. Brooks Newmark thought he was
:14:17. > :14:20.sending an explicit photo to a young female Conservative Party worker he
:14:21. > :14:24.met on line. He wasn't. The photos had been lifted, it was a fake
:14:25. > :14:30.account run by a male journalist and he wasn't the only Tory MP he had
:14:31. > :14:33.tried to lure. The real issue is about subterfuge, the trickery, when
:14:34. > :14:38.does a newspaper, when do journalists have the right to use
:14:39. > :14:42.that kind of trickery? The defence from the Sunday Mirror.

:14:59. > :15:02.be interested in getting them in his bed there is a huge public interest.
:15:03. > :15:06.There is where the complaint will be handled. It housed the old
:15:07. > :15:10.discredited Press Complaints Commission, today there is a new

:15:16. > :15:18.Complaints Commission. It can levy fine, carry out investigations but
:15:19. > :15:24.the heart of this is did we need to know this? Is it in the public
:15:25. > :15:28.interest? I think it is clear this was a fishing expedition, the use of
:15:29. > :15:31.subterfuge was not justified by the public interest, and the newspaper

:22:08. > :22:15.Welcome to Aldi, unlike the big established players, this grocer is
:22:16. > :22:19.piling on sales and customer -- customers. The supermarket world is
:22:20. > :22:23.changing fast, ask the shoppers. I see you have a Waitrose bag, Tesco
:22:24. > :22:27.bag, Sainsbury's and you're also shopping a Aldi. Why? Though
:22:28. > :22:33.beforehand you could conveniently go to one shop and get loads of stuff,
:22:34. > :22:37.now you are finding new art spending a lot of money, but if you split it
:22:38. > :22:42.between shops, and one of them is Aldi, you save a lot of money. All
:22:43. > :22:47.of this was ?21, and usually it would be about 50 or ?60. Aldi
:22:48. > :22:55.arrived in the UK more than 20 years ago. It was sold from boxes. But
:22:56. > :23:00.these days it has upped its game, selling fresh produce, attracting
:23:01. > :23:03.more upstart -- upmarket shoppers, although small in the UK, it has a
:23:04. > :23:08.Basque operations across Europe and beyond. It may have far fewer
:23:09. > :23:13.products than a normal supermarket but it gives them a huge buying
:23:14. > :23:20.power with suppliers -- a vast operation. Discounters like Aldi are
:23:21. > :23:23.stealing a mask -- March. What is happening on the Isles is sending
:23:24. > :23:26.shock waves through the industrial ready grappling with huge change,
:23:27. > :23:31.and it is a battle increasingly about price. At Sainsbury's, we are
:23:32. > :23:35.changing the way we set our prices. The big grocers are fighting back.
:23:36. > :23:39.Sainsbury's is the latest to launch a campaign on price. But experts
:23:40. > :23:44.reckon it is a battle they cannot win. Tesco, Sainsbury's, Morrisons,
:23:45. > :23:48.they public company and they report to the city and there will always be
:23:49. > :23:51.an expect -- expectation of profit margins are the three retailers
:23:52. > :23:57.which makes it difficult for them to invest the margin back into price
:23:58. > :24:01.again. Privately owned Aldi does not have that problem, but with new
:24:02. > :24:05.research today suggesting another three years of squeezed household
:24:06. > :24:07.finances the competition at the checkouts could get even tougher.

:24:16. > :24:19.All that changes this week when the laws are loosened to allow
:24:20. > :24:21.a certain amount of original material to be used.
:24:22. > :24:25.But there's one snag - it maybe left to a high court judge to decide
:24:26. > :24:39.if the parody is funny enough to be legal - as Clive Coleman explains.
:24:40. > :24:50.This is the phenomenally successful Mhairi -- Miley Cyrus song Wrecking
:24:51. > :24:58.Ball. And this is a parody that has had a staggering 50 million and more
:24:59. > :25:03.hits online. This is Sir Alan Sugar. And here is the Apprentice, but not
:25:04. > :25:09.as you know it. Do you want to kiss my mouth? The answer to that from me
:25:10. > :25:15.is yes. You are hired. It's one of a growing number of parodies on the
:25:16. > :25:20.Internet made by comically reediting snippets. Until now anyone who had
:25:21. > :25:25.copyrighted films, TV shows or songs to make parodies faced a risk of
:25:26. > :25:28.being sued. It's not very conducive to good comedy to be sat there
:25:29. > :25:34.waiting to see what lawyers think of a joke. It might even had a chilling
:25:35. > :25:40.effect where you think it is too much trouble to do that particular
:25:41. > :25:47.joke. The man responsible for some of the most popular parodies is
:25:48. > :25:50.known only as Cassette Boy. Tell me about the legal issues and
:25:51. > :25:55.frustrations that you have had to negotiate in doing your work. It
:25:56. > :25:59.feels like censorship. It feels like the chosen form of impression --
:26:00. > :26:06.expression is being censored. It's like being a painter in a country
:26:07. > :26:10.where paint is illegal. This parody of the Beatles I am the walrus could
:26:11. > :26:13.not be shown on British television until now as the music publishers
:26:14. > :26:21.would not allow the lyrics to be changed. I am Thesaurus. Now
:26:22. > :26:25.copyrighted material can be used of the parody is fair, but if the
:26:26. > :26:30.copyright owner sues, it will be up to the judge to decide if the parody
:26:31. > :26:35.is funny. Whether George who spent years in a court room might --
:26:36. > :26:39.judges who have spent years on remarked the other judge will be
:26:40. > :26:44.funny, I don't know. There could be an explosion of parodies now, like
:26:45. > :26:51.this version of Masterchef. I love your plate, it looks professional.
:26:52. > :27:01.I think many people would like to copyright the weather this month
:27:02. > :27:05.because it has been really dry and if you like it is warm, spectacular
:27:06. > :27:09.September, and the last day of the month also promises more fine
:27:10. > :27:13.weather for most of us. It will be missed the first thing, some fog
:27:14. > :27:16.patches, and there will be some rain, chiefly across western parts
:27:17. > :27:22.of the UK. In the east, some heavy downpours, and those heavy showers
:27:23. > :27:26.are clear. And also slowly fading through the night, so most of us
:27:27. > :27:30.have a dry night, and it will be a warm night with temperatures widely
:27:31. > :27:34.staying in their teens. One or two mist and fog patches, and they
:27:35. > :27:38.should clear away, and in central and eastern areas, a fine day and
:27:39. > :27:43.when it brightens up, the sunshine comes through. In the west, we will
:27:44. > :27:47.see things change. The rain will gradually spread its way across
:27:48. > :27:50.western Scotland. Staying dry and fine across north-east Scotland, but
:27:51. > :27:55.a dull evening rush hour in Glasgow and Belfast, but the far west of
:27:56. > :28:02.Northern Ireland might cheer up. The bulk of England and Wales, it will
:28:03. > :28:07.be dry and bright, and warm again, 19 or 21 Celsius. Claiming over in
:28:08. > :28:12.the West -- clouding over in the West. That area of rain will become
:28:13. > :28:15.more expansive across England and Wales tomorrow evening and another
:28:16. > :28:19.band of rain pushes across Scotland and Northern Ireland. There are two
:28:20. > :28:23.weather systems slowly spreading south during Wednesday, bringing
:28:24. > :28:26.cloud and the damp start the many but brightness in between and for
:28:27. > :28:30.Scotland and Northern Ireland it will brighten up with sunny spells
:28:31. > :28:34.here. Further south, patchy rain, nothing too heavy. Still quite mild.
:28:35. > :28:38.Slightly fresher further north and that is one of the themes of the end
:28:39. > :28:42.of the week. A big change as we head into the first week of October. It
:28:43. > :28:47.will turn cooler, spells of rain for all of us, and often quite blustery.
:28:48. > :28:49.You might say fairly typical autumnal weather on the way.
