Trump Wants Broad Negotiation, Former UK Trade Chief Says
The UK would be "down the order," in US priorities for additional tariffs, says Crawford Falconer, former UK Chief Trade Negotiation Adviser. The UK doesn't have the "leverage" to retaliate on a "macro level," he adds. Nevertheless, Falconer says any future UK-US trade agreement could be a "model" for other larger economies.

Trump says National Guard will restore order, end unrest in LA
(Bloomberg) — President Donald Trump pledged Sunday to send whatever is necessary to California to respond to two days of protests in Los Angeles triggered by sweeping immigration raids.
