Today's Video Focus: Pressure is mounting from senior Tories for the former Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson to apologise - or even be kicked out of the party - after his remarks about women who wear burkas. One MP said if Mr Johnson ever became Tory leader - he'd quit the party himself in protest. Critics are accusing Mr Johnson of using the issue to further his own leadership ambitions - and trying to mine a Donald Trump style of political populism.

Focus of the Day Story:

Applicants for QC status should not have to approach a judge for a favourable reference, the Law Society has said, suggesting that providing a list of substantial cases they had acted in would help remove the ’apparent bias’ against solicitor advocates. It was responding to a consultation by QC Appointments (QCA) on improving the appointments process to the historic rank.

Today's Video Focus: The world now stands together to fight single-use plastic but in a third-world country this might feel like a lonely cause. Joslin in Lebanon creates initiatives to convince the community to step away from plastic in a country ridden by a rubbish crisis.

Focus of the Day Story:

When small businesses believe they can trust the transparency of legal providers on fees, they are twice as likely to seek the advice of lawyers, according to the Legal Services Board (LSB).
The board said the finding supported the thrust of the Competition and Markets Authority’s recommendations, which called for greater price transparency, which are being implemented by all the legal regulators.
