Sri Lanka's presidential election has been won by the left wing anti- corruption candidate, Anura Kumara Dissanayake. It was Sri Lanka's first such vote since being plunged into an economic crisis two years ago. We speak to Harini Amarasuriya, an MP and senior figure in the NPP - the National People's Party.

Also in the programme: Israel orders 45-day closure of Al Jazeera West Bank office; and Germany's chancellor appears to have narrowly dodged humiliation after exit polls suggested his party has held off the far right in his home state, Brandenburg.
