Duration: 45 minutes

The ariel bombardment of Aleppo has begun again, as MPs in the UK hold an emergency debate on the crisis. One former cabinet minister says there should be a no fly zone even it means confronting Russian air power.
But could the West realistically enforce a no-fly zone in Syria? One Sandhurst trained Conservative MP - thinks not.

We'll be devoting much of the programme to the Syrian quagmire, including a rare interview with the passionate Syrian Member of Parliament for the City of Aleppo.

Should women have to show their passport before giving birth -one south London hospital thinks it's the only way of stopping health tourism. Is that practical or ethical?

And we know he can shock people - but what else might he do? We'll gaze into the future and view a possible Trump White House. Show less
