After last night's embarrassing Commons defeat over his anti-terror plans, Tony Blair faces his cabinet this morning, with home secretary Charles Clarke taking the blame for "misjudging the mood" in parliament. We'll be finding out what the odds are on the PM remaining in power for much longer, and following the mood in the Commons as the significance of the vote sinks in.

We're also following developments in Amman where al-Qaida has claimed responsibility for the triple blasts that killed at least 57. In Baghdad, meanwhile, at least 33 are dead in another suicide attack.

Nicholas Watt's world dispatch looks at Ukraine's bid for EU membership, we'll announce the Bank of England's decision on interest rates as soon as it happens at midday, and northern editor Martin Wainwright will be at Countdown presenter Richard Whiteley's memorial service in York.
