As Twitter's board agrees a sale to Elon Musk, we ask how the social network might change.

As Twitter's board agrees a sale to Elon Musk, we ask how the social network might change. Bruce Daisley was vice-president of Twitter for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and brings us his perspective on the proposed deal. Also in the programme, the bank HSBC has just unveiled earnings that did not meet investor expectations. Frances Coppola is an independent banking analyst, and tells us what is putting pressure on the firm's profits. The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Ivana Davidovic investigates urban mining, which is the process of reclaiming raw materials from spent products, buildings and waste. Plus, the world's largest horticultural show, Floriade, is under way in the Netherlands. Frank Cornelissen is chief commercial officer for the event, and tells us more.

Today's edition is presented by Martin Webber, and produced by Nisha Patel, Joshua Thorpe and Gabriele Shaw.
