Turkish Lira Plunges Amid Economic Chaos

The Turkish currency falls further as metal tariffs bite.

As Turkey's currency falls, President Trump has doubled metal tariffs on the country. Our reporter in Istanbul explains what is behind growing economic chaos in the country. Also in the programme, economic growth has picked up a little in the UK. We have a report taking the temperature of the British economy. We head to the Campaign for Real Ale's annual Beer Festival in London to find out how the beer industry is faring.
