:01:27. > :01:34."Occupy Wall Street" camp in downtown New York has been
:01:34. > :01:36.dismantled by the police. The tented camp, which was set up in
:01:36. > :01:38.September to protest against the financial sector and economic

:02:23. > :02:27.have complained against corporate greed and the widening gap between
:02:27. > :02:31.rich and poor. Last night there were angry confrontations between
:02:31. > :02:35.the protesters and the police. police pushed a big group of us.
:02:35. > :02:40.The woman in front of me had a whole lot of people behind her and
:02:40. > :02:45.could not back off and they started beating her with batons. I went to
:02:45. > :02:50.help her, and five of us were sprayed with pepper spray. The mood
:02:50. > :02:56.was tense. The police blocked off the roads leading to the park as
:02:56. > :03:00.the eviction was under way. From the beginning I said the City had
:03:00. > :03:03.two principal goals, guaranteeing public health and safety, and
:03:03. > :03:08.guaranteeing the protesters their First Amendment rights. But when
:03:08. > :03:13.those two goals Clash, their health and safety of the public and our
:03:13. > :03:19.first response must be the priority. The protesters are angry about
:03:19. > :03:23.being evicted, although they have been told they can go back without
:03:23. > :03:27.any tents, so this is the end of the incumbent, so they are already
:03:27. > :03:31.planning to move somewhere else in the city. You can take the park,
:03:31. > :03:39.but you cannot take the spirit that was created in that Park. They
:03:39. > :03:43.moved to another park near by, regrouping as dawn broke. Then the
:03:43. > :03:49.crowd marched back towards Zuccotti Park where they had been forced to
:03:49. > :03:52.leave. There was pepper spray, a sound canon. I was told the
:03:52. > :03:57.conviction has only emboldened protesters. We cannot be evicted,
:03:57. > :04:00.because you cannot evict ideas off economic justice and democracy.
:04:00. > :04:04.They are continuing to take hold throughout the city regardless of
:04:04. > :04:07.what they do. They are trying to get back in the park they were
:04:07. > :04:12.evicted from. The police are funnelling them into this
:04:12. > :04:19.barricaded area and the protesters say they have a constitutional
:04:19. > :04:22.right to be here. Whatever happens next, the protesters feel that
:04:22. > :04:25.their power for anti-capitalist mission -- message has been heard.
:04:25. > :04:32.But their right to free speech is colliding with what the authorities
:04:32. > :04:35.are prepared to tolerate. Similar disaffection with western market
:04:35. > :04:38.economies is also being voiced in the new member states of the
:04:38. > :04:41.European Union. Over 20 years after the fall of communism the sheen of
:04:41. > :04:43.capitalism is beginning to wear thin, that's according to a survey
:04:43. > :04:45.by the European Bank for Development and Reconstruction. The
:04:45. > :04:48.report has found that the economic crisis is hitting ordinary
:04:48. > :04:51.households in Eastern Europe far harder than in western countries.
:04:51. > :04:59.To discuss that, I'm joined by the bank's Director of Communications
:04:59. > :05:03.Jonathan Charles. Why has the crisis hit hard in the East?
:05:03. > :05:07.think everywhere, not just eastern Europe, but in Western Europe,
:05:08. > :05:11.democracy is under great pressure. That is hardly surprising given the
:05:11. > :05:15.depth of the economic crisis but if you look at Central Europe and
:05:15. > :05:20.countries like Hungary and what has gone on in the Baltic states, in
:05:20. > :05:23.Latvia, they have seen a big contraction in their economies but
:05:23. > :05:28.people are disaffected. It is hardly surprising when you see a
:05:28. > :05:31.contraction of that sort. I was discussing this today with a former
:05:31. > :05:36.Hungarian Prime Minister and he was making the point that people had
:05:36. > :05:40.high hopes for the future when the Berlin Wall came down in 1989. They
:05:40. > :05:43.look forward and thought capitalism was the answer was -- the answer to
:05:43. > :05:46.their prayers, but now they discover it is very painful and
:05:46. > :05:53.they wonder how much longer they will have to wait before they
:05:53. > :05:57.become like Western Europe. The case of high expectations.
:05:57. > :06:00.surveyed 38,000 people, but did anyone suggest an alternative? As
:06:00. > :06:03.in a man -- presumably they did not want to return to communism. They
:06:03. > :06:07.want to stick with the democracy that they don't like the way it
:06:07. > :06:13.works. For many democracy is an abstract concept. It is clear that
:06:13. > :06:17.what people value in a democracy is when it delivers economic gain, and
:06:17. > :06:20.if they see a reverse, they start to question the whole idea.
:06:20. > :06:26.they prepared to trade that off, less liberty for more economic
:06:26. > :06:29.gain? There was a question that we half asked, would you rather live
:06:29. > :06:33.in a democracy that is not delivering growth or summer that is
:06:33. > :06:36.not very democratic but his guaranteeing growth and people
:06:36. > :06:40.seemed willing to make the trade, so it shows how important
:06:40. > :06:44.capitalism and economic growth is because at least they put more
:06:44. > :06:48.store on that than they did on democracy. I know you're all so did
:06:48. > :06:52.the survey in five Western European countries. What did they say?
:06:53. > :06:55.were keen to see how what was going on in the region we serve, the
:06:55. > :06:58.former communist countries, compared to what is going on
:06:58. > :07:02.Western Europe. One of the country's we looked at was Italy
:07:02. > :07:05.and there we saw only a 38 % support level for the market
:07:05. > :07:09.economy. People were clearly questioning what was going on in
:07:09. > :07:15.the market economy. Hardly surprising looking at there are
:07:15. > :07:19.pupils. 68 % supported democracy, so only two thirds. There was a low
:07:19. > :07:24.level of support for the market economy in France and the UK.
:07:24. > :07:28.was it highest? Not surprisingly, Sweden and Germany, to countries
:07:28. > :07:32.where growth has been relatively strong despite the economic crisis.
:07:32. > :07:37.But there are issues. If we look ahead to 2012 we are seeing a
:07:37. > :07:40.serious few months ahead. Very painful for West and eastern Europe.
:07:40. > :07:43.There will be a question on how it impacts on democracy because
:07:43. > :07:47.government will be cutting costs, cutting expenditure to get the
:07:47. > :07:51.budget deficit in order and where will that leave democracy? That is
:07:51. > :07:55.something we may look at in another survey in 12 months. Possibly
:07:55. > :07:58.dangerous times ahead. Jonathan Charles, thank you very much.

:22:10. > :22:16.Ashford, what led you to believe that Jane Austen may have been
:22:16. > :22:21.poisoned? It started when I went to live in Chawton in Hampshire, where
:22:21. > :22:26.Jane Austen lived. Most of reading some of her letters in which she
:22:26. > :22:31.described her symptoms and one particular phrase jumped out. She
:22:31. > :22:36.describes her face as being black and white and every wrong colour.
:22:36. > :22:41.As a crime writer I have researched poisons extensively and it occurred
:22:41. > :22:50.to me that this was very simple -- similar to the Simpsons of arsenic
:22:50. > :22:55.poisoning. -- symptoms. But the visiting American told me about a
:22:55. > :23:00.lock of her hair in the Jane Austen Museum. Apparently the people who
:23:00. > :23:07.bought their hair in the 1940s, who donated it to the museum, haddock -
:23:07. > :23:11.- had it tested far arsenic and the test was positive. Putting these
:23:11. > :23:17.two things together, I thought, there must be something in this.
:23:17. > :23:21.The more I researched arsenic, the more I thought, yes, the symptoms
:23:21. > :23:26.she described, there is a lot of correlation between arsenic
:23:26. > :23:32.poisoning and what she described. Do you think she was actually a
:23:32. > :23:36.murdered or could she have ingested it accidentally? It is unlikely but
:23:36. > :23:42.not impossible that she was murdered. It of course it is a
:23:42. > :23:46.scenario I have created for my fictional book. Certainly there are
:23:47. > :23:52.other possibilities. We know that arsenic was very widespread in the
:23:52. > :23:59.early 19th century. It occurred in wallpaper, candles, you can buy it
:23:59. > :24:05.for rat poison. It was also used in medicine. One of the most popular
:24:05. > :24:12.medicines at the time contained arsenic. It was given for
:24:12. > :24:17.rheumatism and we know that Jane Austen had rheumatism. Deirdre Le
:24:17. > :24:23.Faye, do you think this is possible, that Jane Austen could perhaps by
:24:24. > :24:28.accident have ingested enough arsenic to kill her? No, frankly. I
:24:28. > :24:34.agree that arsenic was very widely available and widely used and she
:24:34. > :24:39.may well have taken some in medicine because we don't know what
:24:39. > :24:42.medicines she took. She was ill for quite a few months and the local
:24:42. > :24:48.apothecary was supposed to be treating her but he did not keep
:24:48. > :24:54.any notes about his patients. But certainly arsenic was used. I
:24:55. > :25:01.believe it was used to because it was almost a cosmetic because in
:25:01. > :25:06.small doses it makes your hair glossy and a nice pale skin. What
:25:06. > :25:11.about the point about her skin having these peculiar coloured
:25:11. > :25:16.blotches? She says that in her letters, and most people to date
:25:16. > :25:23.have taken it as meaning Addison's disease, which apparently does do
:25:23. > :25:31.this to you, when the Reinaldo and above the kidneys fails and your
:25:31. > :25:36.blood does not get cleaned and it is reflected in your face.
:25:36. > :25:41.Addison's disease apparently gives a brawl last appearance, a healthy
:25:41. > :25:47.outdoors look, which is quite different from be symptoms Jane
:25:47. > :25:55.Austen described. All of the medical theories fault on the use
:25:55. > :26:00.facial symptoms she reported. Lupus, Hodgkin's disease, a form of typhus
:26:00. > :26:05.have all been suggested but none of them quite cover the symptoms,
:26:05. > :26:11.especially the skin this coloration. I am sure this discussion will go
:26:11. > :26:16.on and on. I am afraid this is all we have time for.

:26:27. > :26:33.lawyers for the protesters have obtained a temporary court order
:26:33. > :26:37.allowing them to remain. Turkey's Prime Minister has warned
