Trump Fires Chief Strategist Steve Bannon

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

Wall Street traders cheered when they heard that President Trump's top aide is leaving. We ask Marc Fisher from the Washington Post how much turbulence Bannon's forced departure will cause? Also, we hear from businesses in Barcelona in the aftermath of the deadly attacks in Spain. As many as 16 million people are now affected by some of the worst monsoon floods in South Asia in recent years. Food shortages and outbreaks of disease are raising fears of a humanitarian crisis, according to the International Red Cross. Shikha Shrestha from charity Water Aid speaks to us from Kathmandu. Fergus Nicoll is joined on the programme by Clive Hunton of ABC News in Canberra. (Picture: Steve Bannon. Credit: Getty Images)
