TUESDAY 2 MAY - 22.30 GMT - BBC TWO
PRESENTER: JEREMY PAXMAN



From the web team:

Jacqui Smith is to stand down as Home Secretary in a few days and no fewer than four Labour MPs have said they will stand down at the next election. So is this a Government in crisis, and can Mr Brown really claim to be in control of events? We'll have front bench and back bench reaction on another momentous day at Westminster.

We will also be speaking to Shadow Foreign Secretary William Hague and asking him about Tory European policy and his party's position on the Lisbon Treaty.

Plus, our Diplomatic Editor Mark Urban will report from Germany and Hungary about how extreme left and right wing parties could fare in Thursday's European elections.

Do join Jeremy for all that at 10.30pm on BBC Two.

 LAST NIGHT'S HIGHLIGHT

Deputy Labour leader Harriet Harman has defended the under fire chancellor, Alistair Darling, and how the government is dealing with MPs caught up in the expenses scandal. She told Jeremy Paxman that all MPs - whether in a cabinet member or backbencher - must answer allegations and abide by the rules, but warned against assuming that all MPs got into politics for money.
