| MONDAY 3 MARCH 22:30 GBT - BBC TWO FROM RICHARD WATSON Hello, "It's another bleak day for the citizens of Pakistan. Not only are today's attacks on the Sri Lankan cricket team likely to be the final nail in the coffin for visiting sports teams, they will also be seen as another milestone on the road to political chaos. The Pakistan Government has admitted that some of the planning for the recent Mumbai attacks was carried out on home soil. If the latest events turn out to have involved Pakistani militants then this will strengthen fears that the state is unravelling. I've spent the day trying to piece together the wider implications of these attacks which I think should be viewed in the context of a regional crisis involving Afghanistan, Pakistan, India and Iran." Also tonight, are we kidding ourselves about a "new" special relationship with the US? Gordon Brown is granted an audience with Barack Obama in the White House tonight. Jeremy will speak to Cabinet Minister Ed Miliband from Washington. Our Political Editor Michael Crick is currently wading his way through a parliamentary report into the so-called "nannygate" allegations against Shadow Cabinet Minister Caroline Spelman... a story he originally broke last summer. His thoughts so far are on his blog. Finally, Newsnight's been following four young people in the social care of Leicester City Council. Within a year they'll all turn 18 and leave the care system - ready or not - tonight we look at their different experiences of social workers. It's powerful stuff. You can view our previous visits here and here, and read Liz Mackean's article here. Join Jeremy tonight at 10.30pm on BBC 2. Missed Newsnight? Click here to watch online |
