With Jo Coburn. David Cameron faces a large rebellion from backbenchers wanting a referendum on the UK's relationship with Europe. Plus guest John Cridland from the CBI.

The PM faces one of his biggest rebellions by some backbenchers who want a referendum on the UK's relationship with the European Union.

On Wednesday, Mr Cameron's off to Brussels for another crisis meeting. Over the weekend President Sarkozy of France told Mr Cameron he was sick of Britain criticising the eurozone countries and telling them what to do. 

We talk to Foreign Secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind and Tory backbencher Mark Pritchard.

Does council outsourcing work? We have a film from Suffolk and will then talk to Heather Wakefield from Unison. 

And with Jo Coburn for the whole programme today is the Director General of the CBI, John Cridland.

BBC Two is a lively channel of depth and substance, carrying a range of knowledge-building programming complemented by great drama, comedy and arts.
