Hong Kong extradition bill "dead"

Newsday

Available for over a year

Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam says the controversial bill that would have allowed extradition to the Chinese mainland "is dead", but protesters say "not enough." Today: as Italy continues to close it's ports to asylum seekers -- is it leading to the closure of reception centres too. And we meet pianist Isata Kanneh-Mason, the next star from Britain's most musical family -- her brother played at cello at the Royal wedding between Harry and Meghan, now she is set to release her debut album.
