The Suez Canal, which carries 10% of global trade, has been blocked by a container ship. Sal Mercogliano is an expert in maritime history at Campbell University in North Carolina, and discusses the implications of the incident. Also in the programme, Germany's government has outlined a plan for how to pay for its unprecedented support for workers and companies during the pandemic. Peter Bofinger is a prominent German economist, and used to sit on the country's Council of Economic Experts, and tells us what damage coronavirus has done to Europe's largest economy. The 大象传媒's Manuela Saragosa reports on the growth in food delivery apps over the past year, and what it all means for restaurants. Plus, our regular workplace commentator, Peter Morgan, asks what new skills workers returning to the office after working from home, are likely to bring.
