World Service in English

For the World Service in English, the cuts look really hard, at 68 post closures in the next financial year. Europe Today and Politics UK will stop, as will one weekly documentary strand.  The new kid on the block, World Have Your Say, gets an extra weekday edition, and there'll be shorter daily "versions" of From Our Own Correspondent as well as the existing weekly edition.  These schedule changes are not enough on their own to meet the target, so more will emerge later as Craig Oliver explains next steps to balance the books.
