New evidence of a 'major error' in the design of an apartment that collapsed near Miami.

Clear evidence emerges of deadly mistakes made before the collapse of a highrise apartment block in Miami.

Also, the campaign in Australia to make shark nets a thing of the past.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Caroline Frost, a British writer and entertainment and media journalist; and Mark Galleoti, expert and consultant on Modern Russia and honorary professor at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies at University College London.
