Britain bombing Syria, toxic car emissions and remembering Roboski (E274)

Afshin Rattansi goes underground on whether Britain will bomb Syria, EU car emissions and the Turkish press. Why does David Cameron still want to go to war in Syria? Stephen Gethins, member of the cross-party House of Commons Foreign Affairs Select Committee and SNP MP for North East Fife, questions government incoherence about a new UK war in the Middle East. We speak to Jenny Bates, a campaigner for Friends of the Earth, about EU emission laws and what should we do when we cross the street, now we know millions are dying from both petrol and diesel cars on our roads? Journalist and author Frederike Geerdink talks about her book “The Boys are Dead – The Roboski Massacre and the Kurdish Question in Turkey.” Plus does the government control the press in the Turkey, the country she was recently deported from?
