Argentina鈥檚 new President faces a national strike

Tens of thousands Argentines are taking to the streets to challenge new economic reforms from President Javier Milei.

Less than two months since the new President Javier Milei took office, tens of thousands Argentines are staging a national strike.

Workers in transportation, construction, health care, food services, energy and banking are protesting against Mr. Milei鈥檚 planned overhauls. Union leaders argue that they will weaken protections for workers and the poor.

Also, in the programme, Sam Fenwick talks to the boss of a Dutch semi-conductor company who sees no end in sight to the ever-increasing demand - and how a small Scottish town reinvented itself as a destination for books to keep business alive.
