Snap election called in Austria

Austria's Chancellor, Sebastian Kurz, has called a snap election after the resignation of his deputy and far-right coalition partner over corruption allegations.

Also in the programme: Australia's prime minister Scott Morrison has called his victory in the country's general election a miracle.

And, the robots learning to be human-like.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Baroness Helic - Arminka Helic, member of the House of Lords, the Upper House of the British parliament - a politician from the governing Conservative Party, and Oliver McTernan, the director of Forward Thinking, an international non-governmental organisation based in the UK, dealing with conflict resolution and mediation.
