China Aims to Avert Trade War

Chinese premier Li Keqiang aims to make it easier for US firms to do business in China

Chinese premier Li Keqiang aims to make it easier for US firms to do business in China. We ask Bob Davis of the Wall Street Journal in Washington, DC, whether the conciliatory tone could avert a China-US trade war. Also in the programme, we report on a revival of US coal mining in West Virginia. As many Facebook users become alert to what data the social network has gathered about them, we hear what you can do to control it. With sponsors of Australian cricket expressing displeasure at a ball tampering scandal, we find out from cricket journalist Tim Wigmore what the economic impact might be. Plus Sheffield University metals expert Dr Martin Jackson tells us about a new method for producing titanium, which could cut costs in half.
