Angela Merkel pledges support for Ireland
German Chancellor visits Dublin for first time in five years.
Angela Merkel has visited Dublin for the first time in five years in a show of solidarity with her Irish counterpart, Leo Varadkar on Brexit. Kevin Doyle, political editor of the Irish Independent, takes us behind the scenes. Also in the programme, the Ethiopian government has released its initial report about the crash of an Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 Max plane last month. Independent aviation analyst Sally Gethin discusses the findings. Plus as millions of Facebook users' data is discovered on Amazon's cloud computing system, we hear about the implications from Lisa Forte, founder of Red Goat Cybersecurity. And, we hear how the same principles employed by pension funds can help improve risk management in some unlikely places.
