| Monday 5 July 2010 at 10.30pm on BBC Two Presented by Emily Maitlis "A billion here a billion there - pretty soon it all adds up". The first billion to be cut will be in the Department of Education. Another £265 million will go from the Department of Business. The budget for housing will also be badly hit. The Treasury insists most of the cuts will be to projects that are unfunded or have not been started. Tonight, we ask what difference they will make and who will be hurt the most. We'll report from one council already cutting their spending and facing difficult choices on front line services. We'll hear from the man who wants to lead Labour - Ed Balls - and hope to speak to the Education Secretary, Michael Gove. Also tonight we look at the plight of modern veterans - a disproportionate number of whom find themselves with drink and substance abuse problems, often on the wrong side of the law. In a moving film we hear from Steve, Danny and others who are trying to work out where things went so wrong for them. And we hope to speak to the armed forces minister. And if it were befitting for a deputy prime minister to publicly punch the air, this might have been the moment to do so - Nick Clegg, announcing in the Commons, the kind of constitutional reform his party's dreams are made of. We'll bring you all the detail and reaction from our political panel on the programme tonight. Do join us at 10.30pm on BBC Two. Emily |
