Trump Criticises Harley-Davidson Over Manufacturing Move

Big Boss Interview

Available for over a year

The company claims the burden of EU sanctions is forcing it to move some factory operations outside the US. We'll assess what makers of bikes and bourbon stand to lose. We'll hear about the mineral business that has helped rip a country apart in a powerful new film, This is Congo. MPs in the UK have voted in favour of a controversial plan to build a third runway at Europe's busiest airport. We hear from David Leam of the business lobby group London First, which supports the move, and Oliver Hayes of Friends of the Earth, which is opposed. In Iran, a series of anti-government protests over rising prices forced Tehran's Grand Bazaar to close. So how big a threat is this to Iran's leadership? Dr Suzanne Maloney from the Brookings Institution gives her view. And our regular workplace commentator Stephanie Hare considers how best to support a colleague who might be crying at work. Fergus Nicoll is joined by Alexander Kaufman from HuffPost, in New York, and Tony Nash, chief economist at Complete Intelligence in Singapore.
