A New Row Over Internet Spying

World Business Report

Available for over a year

Seven internet service providers from around the world have filed a legal complaint against the British intelligence agency GCHQ. We find out what they are so angry about, and get reaction from a former spy. Also in the programme, airport expansion - economic common sense, or plain crazy? We hear both sides of the argument. Plus, Denmark has just given its local councils the right to ban begging. We talk to politicians, Danes and Roma beggars, about the move. (Photo: GCHQ in Cheltenham. Credit: Reuters)
