	Description:		We hear business reaction to a vote of no confidence in UK prime minister Theresa May. The BBC's Rob Young has been talking to companies in the east of England. And Gabriel Felbermayr, director of the influential German economic thinktank the IFO Institute in Munich, explains why he'd like to see Britain's EU withdrawal agreement renegotiated. Also in the programme, with reports that China may be about to cut import taxes on US-made cars from 40% to 15%, our regular economic commentator, Irwin Stelzer of the Hudson Institute, tells us if it would mark a significant de-escalation in the US-China trade war. Plus we hear how critics of throwaway 'fast fashion' don't seem to be harming the Spanish company Inditex, which owns Zara, and helped pioneer the idea.
