Polls Close in Philippines Elections

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Polls Close in Philippines Elections

Votes for a new president and 18,000 other positions marred by violence

Filipinos are voting for a new president and 18,000 other political positions across the country. Also in the programme, UEFA president Michel Platini is to resign as the organisation's president after he failed to have his six year ban from football overturned. And we catch up from our contributor who managed to escape the wildfires in Fort McMurray, Canada.
