One of those things you only find out when you get Freesat - there is no news multiscreen via the red button! The reasons behind this are explained here:
_http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcinternet/2008/05/bbci_on_freesat.html

My workaround on my Panasonic TX-32LZD81 keeps me happy so I will share it here. Hopefully something similar can be applied on other equipment:-
Via 'Other Sat' or 'Manual Tune' options, scan the channels on 11954H. The channel you are after is labelled 'T7 STRM-0'. When watching this channel you will find all six feeds. Just select the audio track for the one you are interested in (on my Panasonic TV I press the 'Option' button and choose from the 'Multi Audio' list).

OK, it's not ideal but I find it better and quicker than the four screen service on Freeview.

HTH.
