Chip shortages hit car production

Jaguar Land Rover cuts output as it struggles to stock up on microchips.

Jaguar Land Rover has announced it will reduce output temporarily as the firm struggles to stock up on microchips. We explore why the shortage is lasting so long and its impact on the car making industry.

We also discuss the latest from Black Friday, with Amazon workers striking and protesting in several countries on the biggest shopping day of the year. And we take a look at what stores in the US are doing to clear inventories in a slowing economy.

Also in the programme, have US financiers fallen out of love with English football? And early rising is one of the latest trends on TikTok for those on the search of success. But what for some is a choice, for others is a necessity.
