Drones Ground Flights at Gatwick Airport
Air passengers have had their flights disrupted by drones at the UK's Gatwick Airport.
Air passengers have had their flights disrupted by drones at the UK's Gatwick Airport. Pippa Malmgren is the co-founder of H Robotics, a drone manufacturing company, and tells us what could be done to prevent such disruption in future. Also in the programme, it appears US president Donald Trump has backed down over a threat to shut down parts of the US government in a row over funding for his election pledge to build a border wall between the US and Mexico. Diane Brady is a business and politics commentator and tells us whether the wall is ever likely to get built. We have a report looking at efforts by companies and countries to cut down on the amount of food waste that ends up getting thrown away, and hear more from Labour member of parliament Mary Creagh, who chairs parliament's Environmental Audit Committee. Plus we find out about research that indicates around a third of bottles of rare whisky might be fake.
