Newsnight  Â·  Season 2011, Episode 63

We will take a closer look at Libyan Foreign Minister Moussa Koussa's decision to come to the UK - and at the man himself and role he played within the Gaddafi regime. Richard Watson will examine the possible benefits his defection will bring to the UK government and its allies, and the political and legal headaches too. Energy Secretary Chris Huhne and representatives of the oil and gas industry are meeting today to discuss the government's announcement in the Budget of a hike in taxes on the oil companies' windfall profits. Matt Prodger will report on that. Paul Mason will be taking us through the Irish bank stress test results, which will be released later today. And Stephen Smith's transformation into Big Society activist Citizen Smith finally begins today, having been pushed back in our schedule by the Libya conflict.
