	Description:		President Trump has said he plans to impose a 25% tariff on steel imported to the US. We hear from steelworkers in Pennsylvania who stand to benefit from the move, and Professor Peter Worrian, a steel specialist at the University of Toronto explains what the US's biggest steel supplier, Canada, may do to respond. And we get context from Renate Featherstone, principal analyst for steel markets at the research consultancy Wood Mackenzie. Also in the programme, as UK prime minister Theresa May outlines her vision for the future trade relationship between Britain and the EU, we get reaction from one of her MPs, Mark Pawsey. Plus Netherlands MP Anne Molder from the ruling VVD party tells us how her country is planning for the possibility of a 'no deal' Brexit. And we look back at the rest of the week's big business stories with Sujeet Indap of the Financial Times in New York, and Riva Gold of the Wall Street Journal in London.
