Trump's Tax Plan

President Trump's plans to reform and simplify the US tax system

President Trump has announced his plans to reform and simplify the US tax system. We get reaction from Colin Wilhelm, financial services reporter at Politico. The row over the Canadian transport company Bombardier has escalated, it now faces a 220% US import duty. Aviation analyst Chris Tarry assess the fallout.

Also in the programme, is socialism making its way back into mainstream politics? One man that certainly thinks so is Jeremy Corbyn, leader of Britain's main opposition Labour party, who set out his vision for government today. We get reaction from both our live guests: From Washington, the economist Peter Morici and from Delhi, Jyoti Malhotra, Consulting Editor at the Indian Express.

Plus, as Twitter trials 240 character posts, we hear why writer, broadcaster and prolific tweeter Dom Knight is against the move.
