Trump claims US economy would 'rocket' with lower interest rates

President Trump has stepped up his attacks on the US Federal Reserve

President Trump has stepped up his attacks on the US Federal Reserve. We ask Harvard professor Ken Rogoff if he's right. Also in the programme, we examine what happens to cities around the world when developers move in. Plus, Britain's Prince Harry has called for addictive video games like Fortnite to be banned. And, we ask why online retail giant Asos is cracking down on "returnaholics".

Presenter Nigel Cassidy is joined throughout the programme by independent political reporter Erin Delmore in New York. And from Perth in Western Australia, radio host and academic Glynn Greensmith.
