Moira Stuart presents the latest stories and pictures. Followed by On the Record
Poor Politics
The Government's decision to freeze the level of child benefit for the third successive year has caused a predictable outcry. Critics claim that the Tories are heartless and mean; the Conservatives reply that they are interested in targeting help at the really needy. But below the surface fury there is considerable confusion about what the Tories' long-term strategy for dealing with poverty really is. Do they still believe that, in the words of former minister John Moore , 'there is no such thing as poverty'? Presented by Jonathan Dimbleby with John Cole. Reporter: David Walter.
