US growth is strong, Syria ceasefire violations, and abuse in UK care homes.

US growth is strong, Syria ceasefire violations, and abuse in UK care homes. National and international news and analysis with Roger Hearing.

The latest US growth data shows stronger growth than expected. How will this play into the very tight presidential race. We also have a report from US by Johnny Dymond; Syria's brief ceasefire came into effect today, but there have already been violations; also, we'll be looking into the extent to which neglect and abuse of patients in UK care homes has been addressed. Tonight the programme is presented by Roger Hearing.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
