Cyclone Idai devastates Mozambique

The government starts three days of mourning for the hundreds killed by Cyclone Idai

The devastation caused by Cyclone Idai in southern Africa is becoming increasingly evident. Aid agencies are trying to rescue survivors and meet humanitarian needs in Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Malawi. Mozambique has declared three days of national mourning for the more than two-hundred people killed. We have the updates from the region.

Also in the show: British PM Theresa May asks the European Union for a three month delay to Brexit. We hear from Brussels and get reaction from our UK political correspondent Rob Watson.

And we speak to the woman who went viral for being the ultimate multitasking mum; breastfeeding, helping with homework and cooking for four kids at the same time.
