Families demand accountability for Boeing 737-Max crashes

Relatives of Boeing 737-Max crash victims said the plane-maker put profit ahead of safety

Relatives of the 157 people, killed in a Boeing 737-Max airliner crash in Ethiopia in March have told the BBC they believe the plane-maker had put its desire for profits ahead of the safety of their loved ones. The loss of Ethiopian Airlines' flight ET302 in March was the second fatal accident involving a 737 Max in the space of five months. The BBC’s Simon Browning has been investigating the timeline of events
Also, the KickStart Money initiative has introduced financial literacy classes to primary-age students in 100 schools across the UK - and is now campaigning to have them added to the national curriculum.
And finally, the BBC’s Faarea Masud explores the economy after dark.
