People flying from London Heathrow to some destinations will be offered a Covid 19 test
Passengers flying from London Heathrow to some destinations will be offered a coronavirus test. For about $100, from today, passengers travelling to Hong Kong can take a test at the airport and receive a result within an hour, as the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Tom Burridge explains.

Also in the programme, President Trump's America First policies have involved pressing the reset button on trade relations with the rest of the world, with the aim of bringing jobs back to the US and levelling the playing field between the US and China.

And we get reaction to US trade policy changes from Mark Rowlinson, counsel at United Steelworkers, which is the largest union representing steel and aluminium workers in Canada.
Plus, with home office space in high demand as a result of the pandemic, our regular workplace commentator Peter Morgan argues a home office is the new selling point for estate agents all over the world.
