Description:

President Trump has attacked the head of the US central bank Jerome Powell for refusing to cut interest rates, saying he should be terminated from his position. We speak to economists for and against sacking the president's latest critic.

Also on the programme: The French President Emmanuel Macron has spoken positively about a day of talks on Ukraine in Paris, involving both US and European representatives; and the astronomers searching for life on a distant planet might have found an indication.
