May Seeks Way to Break Brexit Deadlock
UK prime minister Theresa May sets out her plan to gain support for a Brexit deal.
UK prime minister Theresa May sets out her plan to gain support for a Brexit deal. Our reporter looks at the options on the table. Also in the programme, we have the latest from Zimbabwe, where fuel price hikes last week led to widespread protests, and a temporary deactivation of the internet in response. The internet messaging service WhatsApp is rolling out a restriction that would limit its users forwarding any single message up to five times. The move followed a number of mob lynchings that were blamed on fake reports spread via the service. Melisa Basol is from the University of Cambridge in the UK and explains how messaging is used to spread fake news. Plus we find out why a growing number of parents in Denmark are choosing to send their pre-schoolers to forest school facilities where children spend most of their day outside.
