Trump's Troubled Foundation to Shut Down

BBC World Service - World Business Report, Trump's Troubled Foundation to Shut Down

Donald Trump's troubled charity foundation to shut down.

Donald Trump's troubled charity foundation is to close down amid allegations that he and others illegally misused funds.

US President Donald Trump's troubled charity foundation has agreed to close down amid allegations that he and others illegally misused its funds. We hear from Jordan Fabian, White House watcher from thehill.com. Also in the programme, as senior UK government ministers step up preparations for a potential 'no-deal' Brexit, we debate the possible outcomes and their economic impact. Our regular economic commentator, Roger Bootle of Capital Economics, who believes the UK would be better off outside the EU, debates Sir Vince Cable, leader of the opposition Liberal Democrat party, who disagrees. Football club Manchester United has sacked its manager Jose Mourinho, following a string of disappointing results. Mike Mehall Wood writes about football finance for the business magazine Forbes, and explains why the relationship has soured. Plus we visit a care home in Japan to find out what role robots might play in the future of adult care.
