UN Secretary General hopeful to meet the world's challenges in 2016

As the United Nations completes its 70th year, Secretary General is
calling for further momentum on the world's challenges.

He said diplomatic efforts at the UN came through with historic agreements
such as the Iran resolution, but also failed to meet the challenges
that arose with the refugee crisis.

Moon told reporters at UN headquarters that he is both hopeful and
committed to carrying out diplomatic action into 2016.

Cameron: No ban for Donald Trump

UK Prime Minister David Cameron says he does not agree with those who think Donald Trump should be banned from entering the UK following a string of controversial comments from the US presidential hopeful...

Addressing MPs at the final Prime Minister's Questions before Christmas, Mr Cameron said he was proud to represent one of the "most successful multi-racial, multi-faith and multi-ethnic countries" in the world.

A petition to block Mr Trump from entering the UK following his comments about safety in London and a ban on Muslims from entering the US has attracted more than half a million signatures.

But Mr Cameron believes a ban is not the answer...
