Elections in Turkey dealt a blow to President Erdogan's ruling AKP party in big cities

Elections in Turkey dealt a blow to President Erdogan's ruling AKP party in big cities. Enis Senerdem from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Turkish service assesses how much of a role economic concerns played in the vote. And we hear how economic pressures on Turkey are being felt in everyday life from Can Selcuki, economist and general manager of Istanbul Economics Research. Plus Erol Onderoglu, Turkey representative of Reporters Without Borders, discusses a recent crackdown on the media in the country. Also in the programme, we hear how the increasing popularity of smart speakers could impact the way we find businesses online. Plus our regular workplace commentator Heather McGregor of Edinburgh Business School considers the benefits or otherwise in workplaces of trying to measure co-operation and attitude.
