South Africa Mini Budget Unveiled

Available for over a year

Finance minister Pravin Gordhan has unveiled a mini budget but also faces fraud charges. The BBC's Lerato Mbele in Johannesburg explains the background, and we have analysis from Alan Mukoki, chief executive of South Africa's Chamber of Commerce. Also in the programme, worldwide capacity of renewable electricity sources have overtaken coal fired power stations for the first time. Andrew Simms from the New Weather Institute tells us why it's a significant moment. The BBC's Rahul Tandon reports on how rising tensions between India and Pakistan have spilled over into Bollywood and TV soap operas. The government of New South Wales in Australia has reversed an earlier decision to ban greyhound racing in the state. The BBC's Phil Mercer tells us why. Plus we find out from Steven Silverstein, chief executive of the world's biggest Halloween retailer, Spirit Halloween, why the faces of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are proving a big hit for Halloween mask buyers this year in the United States.
