Bolsonaro tweets explicit carnival video

BBC OS gives a vibrant account of the day’s events with explanation and reaction from those involved.

The Brazilian president, Jair Bolsonaro has tweeted an explicit carnival video which he said portrayed the truth about carnival. It's provoked outrage and ridicule and critics have accused the president of targeting Brazil's favourite party. We'll tap into what Brazilians are saying.

Also in the show: The investment bank Goldman Sachs is starting a flexible dress code and Virgin Atlantic has said female cabin crew no longer need to wear make-up. We'll compare different attitudes to dressing for work with our colleagues from Nairobi, Delhi and New York.

And we'll hear about the Kenya airport strikes. Thousands of passengers have been stranded in the country's four main airports after a strike by workers who say they are unhappy over a planned merger between the airport authority and the national airline.
