Chinese Ambassador Denounces Student Protests
China's UK Ambassador says the Hong Kong protests have nothing to do with democracy
After a weekend of violence at a university campus in Hong Kong, China's Ambassador to London says that the protests have nothing to do with freedom or democracy. We speak to a Hong Kong lawmaker who is with the protestors.
Also on the programme we hear about the fallout from Britain's Prince Andrew's interview relating to sexual allegations against him. And a UN study on children in detention says they are among the world's most vulnerable, discriminated and excluded groups.
