BBC World Service - Weekend, Millions voting on final day of EU elections

Europeans in 20 countries are going to the polls on the biggest and final day of voting.

Voters in more than twenty member states of the European Union are taking part in the final day of elections to the European Parliament with the right and far right expected to surge.

The EU's top diplomat has strongly condemned the killing of Palestinians in Saturday's Israeli military operation to rescue four hostages held by Hamas, describing it as "another massacre".

And how to improve the care-system for children and teenagers here in the UK.

Joining the presenter Luke James, our guests are Rosa Freedman, Professor of Law, Conflict and Global Development at the University of Reading here in the UK, and Andreas Østhagen, a senior researcher on the Arctic at the Fridtjof Nansen Institute in the Norwegian capital, Oslo.
