First asylum seekers arrive on migrant barge

In depth reporting, intelligent analysis and breaking news from a global perspective

Migrants are spending their first night on a barge in Dorset. Fifteen asylum seekers are on board - but a group of about 20 refused to join them. We speak to the charity blamed by the government for blocking them.

Also on the programme:

The United States is stopping over $100m of aid from going to Niger until the military junta that's seized power steps down. We hear from one resident about how free people are to voice their opinions.

And Britain's wonkiest pub - The Crooked House - has burned down. We have a local lament.
