News in Picture

Tomorrow night sees the second of three Leaders' Debates between Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Nick Clegg.

The Liberal Democrat leader is widely perceived to have 'won' the first debate which led to a sudden surge in support for the party - described by our Political editor, Michael Crick, as "certainly the most interesting development in any election in the 30 years in which I have been covering them".

Michael is in Bristol tonight, keeping an eye on the preparations for tomorrow's debate, and he'll be assessing what the Labour and Conservative strategies for dealing with the Lib Dems might be.

Our Diplomatic editor Mark Urban will also be looking ahead to tomorrow's foreign affairs debate where Trident is likely to be a key focus, with Brown and Cameron expected to attack Clegg over his proposals to scrap it. Read more on Mark's blog - where he also recounts a memorable lunch at which former Newsnight presenter Peter Snow pressed naval chiefs about Trident's phallic symbolism.

Britain's unemployment figures have reached their highest since 1994 with 2.5 million people now out of work. Our Economics editor Paul Mason is in Redditch - the West Midlands new town which is home to light industry and Halfords' headquarters - to speak to people there about unemployment, and to investigate what the three main parties are planning to do to create jobs in the future.

And comedian Danny Robins returns with the next instalment of Newsnight's Party Anthems - where he helps the three big parties set their manifesto promises to music to try to get their political messages across. Watch his first attempts at songs for Labour here, the Conservatives here, and the Lib Dems here.
