Texas police admits mistakes in mass shooting response

Former president Trump defended a lax gun policy in his address at the National Riffle Association Convention in Houston

The police have admitted that they took too long to storm the classroom where the gunman was carrying out his attack.

Also: UN Michelle Bachelet, the United Nations high commissioner for human rights, finishes her tour in China where she visited Uyghurs regions Xinjiang; and the cost of living is forcing some in New Zealand to make difficult decisions: leave the country.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Latika Bourke a London based journalist for The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age; and Carne Ross a former British diplomat - who now works for EG3 - a think tank that works on climate diplomacy.
