Bond markets have reacted positively to news that Italy will rein in its spending plans. We find out more from Italian journalist Giada Zampano. Also in the programme, amid growing concern about the issue of plastic waste around the world, environmental campaigner Jonathon Porritt of Forum 4 the Future tells us what might be done. We hear about the threat of cyberattacks against big banks from Jamie Dimon, chief executive of JP Morgan Chase. We find out what Macedonia's government is likely to do next after a referendum which saw people vote heavily in favour of a name change to North Macedonia was ruled invalid, because turnout was below the required 50 per cent. Plus there's growing interest in reusable sanitary products. Gabby Edlin is chief executive of Bloody Good Period, which campaigns for more widespread use of reusable products, and tells us if they are likely to catch on.
