BBC World Service - Weekend, The fight for the right to play dominoes in London

Members of the Caribbean community in London win a court battle to play dominoes outside

Members of the Caribbean community in London win a court battle to play dominoes outside.

Members of the Caribbean community in north-west London win a legal battle against the local council that banned them from congregating to play dominoes, citing noise and antisocial behaviour problems.

Also, Somali security forces say they've ended the siege of the Hayat Hotel in Mogadishu by Islamist militants.  We hear from the Somali capital.

Plus, why Ukrainian partisan attacks in Russian-held territory are increasing.

Joining Anna Holligan to discuss these and other issues are Yasmeen Serhan, a US-born foreign affairs writer for Time magazine based in London; and Lord Peter Ricketts, former UK government national security advisor and British diplomat.
