Police suppress Myanmar street protests

There have been further clashes in Myanmar, where at least two people protesting against this month's military coup are reported to have been been shot dead by security forces. We get the latest from Yangon.

Also on the programme, the plight of Iraqi Christians and what Pope Francis can do for them; and we hear about who might be missing from the awards list at the Golden Globe awards.

To discuss these stories and others we are joined by Mary Dejevsky, a writer and broadcaster based in London and Ryan Heath, the global editor at Politico, the online news publication, from New York.
