| MONDAY 30 MARCH 22.30 GMT - BBC TWO PRESENTED BY JEREMY PAXMAN Newsnight Economics Editor Paul Mason writes I'm getting used to the concept of 'X trillion dollars'. The draft G20 communiqué leaked to the German press at the weekend is full of placeholders for money commitments that have not yet been decided. What is clear is that any new fiscal stimulus commitment is off the agenda. But only the outright cynics will say the G20 does not matter. It is set to deliver a concrete commitment to regulating the banking system. It will certainly deliver new money to the International Monetary Fund. But the danger remains that the emerging rival policy blocs will take action that accelerates the collapse of globalisation. Tune in for the latest at 2230 tonight. Also tonight... Mark Urban will be reporting on the lawlessness of Lahore and what it means for Pakistan's fragile political state. As the Home Secretary is mired in embarrassment over using Commons expenses to pay for porn, MPs are offered a pay rise. Michael Crick asks if it's bad timing or just a bad idea. And 20 years after witnessing the Hillsborough disaster at first hand, Peter Marshall turns up new evidence of what went wrong that day. And after Newsnight tonight - the first terrestrial showing of the drama that's been called the best TV series ever made - The Wire. If you want to know what you're in for, here's what Newsnight Review had to say about the last series, and critic Marina Hyde on why she loves The Wire. Missed Newsnight Review?
