Harry and Meghan to stop using royal titles

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will no longer use their royal titles, represent the Queen, or receive public funds.

Queen Elizabeth announced late on Saturday her grandson, Harry, and his wife, Meghan, would no longer use the Royal Highness title. The couple, who announced earlier this month that they would be stepping down from the royal front line, will also no longer receive royal funds or represent the Queen.

Also in the programme; an international summit in Berlin, where it is hoped a path to peace in Libya can be found, and we revisit Australia where thunderstorms have proved to be a double-edged sword, dousing fires, whilst bringing a new threat of floods.
