Summary
The UK has agreed a trade deal with Australia.
The UK- Australia deal is the first trade deal the UK has agreed since it officially left the EU. What’s in it? And what will it mean for consumers and producers – both here and down under? Chris and Adam get into the detail with Anna Isaac, UK Trade & Economics Correspondent for POLITICO Europe.
And there’s been a report published on the death of private investigator Daniel Morgan back in 1987 and the cover-up by the Metropolitan Police. The BBC’s Home Affairs Correspondent Tom Symonds looks at the findings. Today’s Newscast was made by Emma Close with Danny Wittenberg, Georgia Coan and Ben Cooper. The Studio Director was Emma Crowe. Dino Sofos is the Editor.
