	TUESDAY 17 JULY 22:30 BST - BBC TWO FROM GAVIN ESLER Hello, Today's Quote for the Day "These earplugs are non-toxic, but may interfere with breathing if caught in windpipe" - Warning on a packet of earplugs. Russia What next? We hope to hear from one of the key players in the diplomatic stand off - but in true Cold War style, I can't tell you who it is unless you have security clearance... all will be revealed at 10.30pm (if our guest turns up.) Inequality Several reports out today claim that inequality now is much worse than 20 or 30 years ago. One tool that the government hoped would tackle the opportunity gap - SureStart - also came in for criticism. MPs said it was failing to target those who most need it. So what is the government doing to tackle the problem? Ealing Southall by-election It's turning into one of the most colourful by-elections of recent times: party defections, compromising photographs, and some interesting accusations in those election leaflets. Of course we had to send Michael Crick to Ealing Southall to find out what is going on. Organ Donations Instead of signing up for organ donor cards - "opting in" - should the state presume we agree to be organ donors unless we opt out? The Chief Medical Officer Sir Liam Donaldson said so today. But doesn't that presume that the state somehow owns our bodies? We'll debate.

A Swiss man, looking for directions, pulls up at a bus stop where two Texans are waiting. "Entschuldigung, können Sie Deutsch sprechen?" he asks. The two Texans just stare at him. "Excusez-moi, parlez vous français?" The two continue to stare. "Parlate italiano?" No response. "¿Hablan ustedes español?" Still nothing. So he has a final try: "Tatakalamaani bil arabiyya?" The Swiss man drives off, extremely disgusted. The first Texan turns to the second and says, "You know Bubba, maybe we should learn a foreign language." "Why?" says the other. "That guy knew five and it didn't do him any good." Newsnight will be speaking in tongues at 10.30pm on BBC2. Gavin Missed Newsnight?
