Sir Philip Green charged with assault in the US

The British retail tycoon is charged with four counts of misdemeanour assault in Arizona.

The British retail tycoon, owner of high street chain Topshop, is charged with four counts of misdemeanour assault in Arizona. We hear from Financial Times reporter Kadhim Shubber who's been following the story. We get more reaction to President Trump's plan to introduce tariffs on goods from Mexico and how it's affected the day's trading on Wall Street. And we speak to the woman leading a mission of robot bugs - transported on an autonomous robot boat - deployed to clean and maintain wind farms.
Susannah Streeter is joined throughout the programme by the executive producer of Marketplace Morning Report, Nicole Childers, from Los Angeles and Claire Negus, ABC Western Australia regional editor, who's in Perth.
