Philip Hammond puts economy first in Brexit vision

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

The UK Chancellor Philip Hammond has put forward his vision for a Brexit deal which prioritises the economy. We speak to Tory Brexiteer Bernard Jenkins MP and Seema Malhotra MP from Labour about whether they agree with his plans for a transitional deal. Plus, what drives someone to explore North Korea? We speak to a young Briton who spent his gap year there and hear from China where it's all about fine art in shopping malls.
