Climate change talks extended as the future of COP27 hangs in the balance

Climate change talks extended as the future of COP27 hangs in the balance.

Climate talks are extended as nations argue over who should pay for the destruction caused by global warming.

Also, a special prosecutor has been appointed in Washington to decide whether Donald Trump should face criminal charges.

Plus, a court in California has sentenced the disgraced businesswoman Elizabeth Holmes to more than eleven years in prison for defrauding investors through her blood testing company Theranos.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Stefanie Bolzen, London correspondent for the German newspaper, Die Welt; and Kojo Karam, senior lecturer in law at Birkbeck, University of London.
