UK: Rare royal court appearance, dam politics

From Nine To Noon, 9:48 am on 8 June 2023

UK correspondent Matt Dathan joins Kathryn to discuss Prince Harry becoming the first royal in more than 130 years to give evidence in court this week.

He's there over claims of phone hacking by the Daily Mirror, but he struggled through his evidence. Another story dominating news in Britain is the explosion of a strategically important dam in southern Ukraine, Rishi Sunak's visit to the White House and trouble in the world of golf.
