UK Leader Addresses Parliament About Brexit

Prime minister Theresa May is trying to persuade MPs to back her EU withdrawal deal

EU foreign ministers meeting in Brussels have said it's up to Britain to decide what it wants to do next about Brexit, as the British prime minister Theresa May address the UK parliament again. She said she would have further discussions with Northern Ireland's DUP and others on their concerns about the Irish backstop. We speak to our correspondent in Westminster about the latest developments.

Also we hear from the capital of Zimbabwe, where the country's opposition says its members have been victims of a brutal crackdown in response to violent protests against a sharp rise in the price of fuel.

And when a woman in New York was told she could no longer sit at the bar to eat in her favourite restaurant because she might be mistaken for an escort, it sparked a debate online. We hear a conversation of women discussing their own experiences.
