England lockdown restrictions ease

Available for over a year

Pubs, restaurants, beauty salons and non-essential shops reopened today with the easing of lockdown restrictions across England. We hear from the heart of London’s shopping district and from a pub garden near Reading. Also in the programme, the new President of Tanzania has signed a billion dollar crude oil pipeline deal in Uganda. Gilbert Makore of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative tells us why this is a significant deal for the two nations. Plus, the BBC’s Ivana Davidovic gives us the lowdown on Telegram, the messaging app - and the most downloaded non-gaming app this year. (Picture: A man drinking a pint of beer / Credit: Getty Images)
