Cambodia faces rigged election

Cambodians go to the polls today, but the government of self-styled strongman Hun Sen is almost guaranteed to win. We speak to exiled opposition leader Sam Rainsy, who tells us he has been the subject of multiple assassination attempts.

Also on the programme: the race to prevent environmental catastrophe off the coast of Yemen as the UN attempts to salvage an abandoned oil tanker; and an unprecedented heatwave in Greece forces authorities to temporarily close the turnstiles for part of the day at the Acropolis.

Joining Audrey Brown to discuss all this and more are Ammon Cheskin, senior lecturer in Central and East European Studies at Glasgow University in Scotland and Georgina Godwin, a Zimbabwean-born broadcaster and journalist based in London.
