British MPs fail to back Brexit proposals again
As a no-deal departure looms on April 12, how can business plan?
With no majority for a Brexit solution and a no-deal departure looming on April 12, how can business plan? We get analysis from George Parker at the Financial Times. Meanwhile, climate change protesters disrupted proceedings with a semi-naked protest inside the House of Commons. But how effective are such tactics? Also, elections in Turkey dealt a blow to President Erdogan's ruling AK party in big cities. We examine if the struggling economy influenced voters at the ballot box. Plus, we hear how voice assistants could change the whole way we use the internet. And 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.
Roger Hearing is joined throughout the programme by Simon Littlewood, President of AC Growth Delivered in Singapore and journalist Diane Brady in New York.
