Will Donald Trump supporters accept US election result? | BBC Americast

Published

on



In a phone call following the 2020 election, Donald Trump pressured Georgia’s Secretary of State to “find 11,780 votes” – a move which along with other alleged efforts to overturn the result led to criminal charges against Trump and some of his allies.

Sarah’s there, and she’s been hearing about legal cases over who can and can’t vote, as well as from Trump supporters who already have doubts about the reliability of the result.

She, Anthony, and Marianna discuss whether we could see similar events to those that led to the Jan 6 riots.

Plus, what are social media companies doing, and not doing, to try to prevent disinformation.

Buckingham Palace hits back over Diana book | BBC Newscast

Published

on



Today, Princess Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, has claimed in a new memoir that King Charles said “we’ll forget her soon enough” in the wake of her death nearly 30 years ago. The Palace has pushed back unusually strongly, saying “grief can cloud reason, affect judgment and colour memory”.

The book, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, is due to be published next week and is expected to be highly critical of the Royal Family. Adam is joined by Daniela Relph to unpack what we already know about the claims being made in the book, and what might unfold next week.

It’s not the only royal news in recent days. After Meghan and Harry had to change their children’s schools two days after the start of term, we look at what lead to that decision.

Chaos as police move migrants to a camp in Ceuta | Global News Podcast

Published

on



Police in Spain’s North African territory of Ceuta used batons and fired rubber bullets into the air to control crowds, as they moved hundreds of migrants from beaches to a tent camp. Tens of thousands of migrants crossed from neighbouring Morocco to Ceuta in July. At least 100 people died in the attempt. Though most of the migrants went back, several thousand have remained in the Spanish territory.
