Presented by Jeremy Paxman



Tonight we debate what has happened to the white working class.

Ahead of a controversial BBC appearance by BNP leader Nick Griffin, Jackie Long has been to the town of Blurton to examine claims that Britain's white working class have been left behind, allowing the BNP and far-right groups to flourish.

Also, Newsnight's Defence Editor Mark Urban has been to Kineton, Warwickshire, to find out how UK forces are working to limit the threat of the Taliban's tactic of choice - improvised explosive devices.

As British forces employ more heavily-armoured vehicles to protect them as they move around, the Taliban have reacted with bigger bombs and multiple IEDs aimed at trapping soldiers trying to rescue injured comrades.

Plus, Lyse Doucet has an interview with the senior UN envoy in Afghanistan, Kai Eide - a man who has been playing a key role in the Afghan election process from the start.

Join Jeremy at 10.30pm.
