Gordon's world tour

Andrew Neil | 12:09 UK time, Friday, 27 March 2009

As usual on Fridays, I shall leave you in the more than capable hands of my co-presenter Anita Anand.

In case you've missed the advanced publicity - the next week: that's world leaders, national delegations and of course a rainbow alliance of protest groups.

In advance of the event and in a display of world leadership the Prime Minister this week usually undertaken by rock legends.

The non-stop tour has so far taken in Strasbourg and the European Parliament, the United Nations in New York, Brasilia, Sao Paulo - and today Santiago, Chile.

Mr Brown certainly qualifies for the world tour t-shirt, but whether he's built a consensus in terms of tackling the has yet to be seen.

We'll be exploring what Mr Brown can actually achieve ahead of next week's summit with former No 10 insider .

Also today we'll hear of one MP's two year battle to get his DNA sample off the national database.

Conservative MP will be debating the issue with a rape victim who believes the public should have nothing to fear from the national database and that everyone should be on it.

And it's Friday, so Giles will be here with his usual rundown of the stories you've been most interested in this week.

Comedian will also be here with a more lighthearted look at the top stories.

Throughtout today's show Anita will be joined by - she's just got back from Brown's world tour - and the , a regular Friday guest.
