Face scans for new mobile phones in China

Face scans for new mobile phone contracts in China; UK PM to review treatment of convicts

Everyone signing a new mobile phone contract in China will have to have their faces scanned for a government database.

Also in the programme: The British prime minister wants to review the UK's treatment of convicted terrorists after Friday's attack in London.

And the art of photography.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Shachi Kurl, executive director of the Angus Read institute, a non-partisan polling organisation in Canada; and Seyi Rhodes, a reporter and journalist.
