Mexico prepares for the realities of Trump's inauguration

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

Mexico's government has announced an emergency strategy to protect migrants in the United States, ahead of the inauguration of the president- elect, Donald Trump, next month. There are “early indications” that Russian air defence systems - that's a ground to air missile in plain English - may have caused the downing of an Azerbaijani plane this week. As a number of airlines suspend flights in the region, what does this say about the long-term future of commercial air travel over Russia? Also in the show, we recall the impact of this year's Baltimore bridge collapse on local businesses, nine months on. And how volunteering - a multi-billion dollar industry in the US especially in this holiday season, could be back on the rise in the US.
