Comment on this programme

TSUNAMI

We have an exclusive investigation into how billions of pounds donated to charities for victims of the tsunami has not been spent. Instead, while the victims live in tents, the money is sitting in bank accounts. We'll be talking live to one of the charities who has failed to deliver the houses it promised.

PARTY FUNDING

Our political anorak David Grossman has been looking into the sticky issue of party funding reform. The latest report out today says the present system is "unstable" and has a negative impact on the public confidence. We assess where the parties stand.

IPSWICH LATEST

We'll have the latest from Ipswich on the investigation into the murders of five women.

IRAN STUDENT CRACKDOWN

And we report from Iran where the government is cracking down on the political activities of university students and professors. Lecturers have been forcibly retired, undergraduates warned not to get involved in politics, and student organizations closed down.

OH MY NEWSNIGHT

And last but by no means least, we have one of the finalists of our Oh My Newsnight competition - tonight from Cuba. Do join Jeremy for his last show before Christmas.
