Gavin Esler introduces comprehensive coverage of the day's main national and international news stories.

The Politics

The Finance Bill will finally limp through the Commons tonight after an extraordinary number of U-turns and concessions by the Treasury. Another retreat could also be signalled tonight on tax discs after more threats by Labour backbenchers. Thousands of hauliers have been in Westminster to lobby for fuel duties to be reduced. How weak is the Treasury, the Chancellor and government's authority? The Conservatives are claiming the government has relied on "grubby deal making" to get its legislation through.

The Economics

How close are we to a recession? There have been wretched statistics from Marks and Spencer and Taylor Wimpey this morning, and this week's advertising figures could be even more significant.

We speak to senior business people about how bad the downturn really is.

The Taliban

We have an interview with Ahmed Rashid the hugely influential Pakistani journalist who has studied the Taliban for many years. How can the West beat them?

NHS

And in the latest in our series of films to mark the 60th anniversary of the NHS, Liz MacKean has travelled across the country to hear your views on the health service - both good and bad.
