Today, we look at how far China is willing to go in retaliation against President Trump’s tariffs?

Beijing has vowed to “fight to the end” after President Trump threatened to nearly double the tariffs on China. How far could the trade war go? And, how would big tariffs on Chinese goods impact people in the UK? James is joined by Ian Williams, author of the Fire of the Dragon, China’s New Cold War and Sophia Gaston, visiting fellow at Kings College London.
