Immigration debate remains crucial in US election

We examine both sides of the issue in this special edition of Newshour.

Former president Donald Trump and vice president Kamala Harris have continued to attack each other as the US election draws closer. Immigration remains one of the major election issues and a top concern of American voters. In this special edition of Newshour, James Menendez has been travelling from Mexico to the southern United States to find out what's driving the debate.

Also in the programme: Commonwealth leaders at their summit in Samoa are expected to defy the United Kingdom and debate ways of securing reparations for historical slavery; and we meet the director Tim Burton who is known for his eccentric and gothic filmmaking.
