BBC World Service - Weekend, The UK general election: What does the EU think?

What the EU says about the election of Boris Johnson; White Island's volcanic eruption

The European Union reacts to the election of Boris Johnson as UK prime minister, and the inevitable plans for Brexit.

Also in the programme:  We hear from a student who was on the volcano on New Zealand's White Island, moments before it erupted.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are George Parker, Political Editor of the Financial Times, and Jenny Kleeman, a journalist, author and film-maker.
