Following Newsnight's problems I have decided to start a Newsday programme.

The lead story is

The next stories also are related to torture

The next stories are related to Torypaedogate

• Tory critics claim Mr Watson's decision toraise the issue in Parliament has led to the internet 'smearing' of a number of senior Conservatives

Harman: I cannot vouch for the strength of Tom Watson’s evidence

The one-man crusade that fuelled child abuse rumours

McAlpine may sue Twittering Sally after she admits 'maligning an innocent man' is 'the most stupid thing I've ever done'
