Episode description

The UK regulator has just approved the use of the Pfizer/BioNTech Covid vaccine in children aged 12 to 15. Fergus Walsh tells us how the news could lead to a vaccination drive for schoolchildren, just as cases of the new variant rise in the school playgrounds.

Travel guru Simon Calder has just arrived back from a trip to Gibraltar so he can explain what's happening to our holidays. And we’re joined by BBC business correspondent Katie Prescott, and tax economist and author Nick Shaxson to help us get our heads around the talk of big changes to global corporation tax policy.

Today’s Newscast was made by Maz Ebtehaj with Georgia Coan and Ben Cooper. Emma Close is the assistant editor. The studio director was Emma Crowe. The editor is Dino Sofos.
