Stuart Ramsay on Myanmar's forgotten civil war

Stuart Ramsay discusses reporting from the jungle bringing news of Myanmar's forgotten civil war

Stuart Ramsay has just returned from spending a month undercover in the jungle of Myanmar where an often forgotten civil war still rages. He tells us about how he got into the country and the dangers he faced as a reporter when he got there.

The arrival of Threads is the latest seismic shock in a year of chaos for the major social platforms. We ask what social media users want now and explore the business models platforms must adopt to provide it.

Guests: Stuart Ramsay, Chief Correspondent, Sky News; Dave Lee, US Technology Columnist, Bloomberg; Elaine Moore, Deputy Editor, FT Lex; Christopher Barrie, Lecturer in Computational Psychology, University of Edinburgh

Presenter: Ros Atkins
Producer: Simon Richardson
