Can a post-Brexit deal with Trump be reached?
Donald Trump has praised Britain for its decision to leave the European Union in an interview with Tory MP Michael Gove in The Times today. Trump also said he would sign a trade deal with the UK post-Brexit. But given the president-elect's more protectionist stance on trade, what will this mean for future dealings? John Curtice, Professor of Politics at Strathclyde University, talks through this and more with Share Radio's senior analyst Ed Bowsher.

Your Money, Your Future

Your Money Your Future: Salary Pensions
And at this point every week we focus on long term investing and planning for the retirement you'd really like in Your Money, Your Future. Now, the introduction of pension freedoms in 2015 resulted in an increase in people wanting to transfer their final salary pensions. So they could take money out of them as and when they wanted to. But - can you move your final salary pension and, if so, should you? Or, can you cash it in altogether? We'll be hearing from Sarah Pennell's panel of experts - from Sir Steve Webb, recently knighted in the New Year's Honours. Steve is head of policy at pensions provider Royal London. Also in the studio is Michelle Cracknell, who's chief executive of the Pensions Advisory Service and on the phone I'm joined by Alistair McQueen who's from the pensions and insurance provider Aviva.
