Prospects for Tuesday 9th September
With prospects for tonight's programme, here is today's output editor, Robert Morgan.
Good morning everyone,
There are a few strong stories around today. Paul and Neil are at the TUC to see Darling's speech. Is there anything new we can do on the airline plot trial? Osborne's spending plans and Bush's Iraq troop announcement could be worth doing too.
We have an Andy North film on knife crime which I'll tell you more about in the meeting.
Robert.

It's a wonder i am not an alcoholic!...Did Hutton drink all the wine? is there any left...

If Iraq becomes "too" stable can Maliki renegotiate the oil and rebuilding contracts?

A black male friend said to me."Don't have any (liberal left) pity for them, they are greedy little bastards who do it (rob)cause they can" I live on an estate in NW1. Go down to somewhere like St Pancras Station and look around... none of the vast amount of employees there come from our area - on its doorstep because they just are not up to standard I was told- why is that?
I know that now the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ has to be careful what it says (since WMD and Gilligan etc) but please show some film and good news story on those countries who have dealt with the drugs problem by DECRIMINALISING (not legalising) drug use.. I believe in Portugal and Switzerland and Italy,,, The knife business has a lot to do with dealing. It could be curbed drastically if their bottom fell out of their market!
NB: beside knifes - a lot of these guys have taken to owning 'fight' dogs. The council allow them to be owned in the flats here (how come these guys are 'given' flats is another interesting question in this land of 'perverse incentives' . Anyway, I feel i am being forced to move out (make an exchange etc) because the council is effectivly useless at making these dog owners obey their tenancy agreements. I have tried to get some action for months to no avail regards Sandi
