Despite being more than 8,000 kilometres away from the action, the UK is on edge after North Korea's latest missile launch.

Prime Minister Theresa May says they are not ruling out cyber warfare or military action at this point.

Her comments come after a North Korean missile was fired over north Japan, before crashing into the sea.

UK correspondent Rod Liddle says the country is on edge.

He says the issue is much greater than before because Kim Jong-un is thought of as a pariah, much like Saddam Hussein was regarded.
