More Sydney areas to evacuate over flooding

The Premier of New South Wales in Australia has described the flooding in parts of Sydney as a once in fifty year event. Gladys Berejiklian said another four thousand people may be asked to leave their homes.

Also in the programme: how Census Day in the UK is raising questions of identity; and protests in Poland against logging in a primeval forest.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are: Lance Price, broadcaster, writer and political commentator and Dr Chandrika Kaul, a reader in Modern History at the University of St Andrews in Scotland.
