WBR: War of words over HSBC tax allegations 11 Feb 15

Wed1, 11 Feb 15

As the HSBC tax investigation2 reveals the bank helped its wealthiest customers evade3 tax, the UK Prime Minister is accused of being backed by 'dirty donors4'. Germany remains5 adamant6 that it will not lend more money to Greece, and that Greece needs to continue with its austerity plans. Irwin Stelzer from the Hudson Institute in Washington examines the possible outcomes from the deadlock7. Major technology companies are creating driverless cars, with trials being unveiled in the UK. We look at how exactly these 'autonomous8' cars function. And as Brian Williams is suspended from his job anchoring the NBC Nightly News, we ask whether the age of the heavyweight respectable news anchor is past us.
