  • You're listening to the Globalist, first broadcast on 21st November 2024 on Monocle Radio.

  • The Globalist in association with UBS.

  • Hello, this is the Global broadcasting to you live from Midori House in London.

  • I'm Georgina Godwin.

  • On the show ahead, we're going to bring the companies back.

  • We're going to lower taxes still further for companies that are going to make their product in the usa.

  • We're going to protect those companies with strong tariffs.

  • Those may be Donald Trump's plans for the economy, but with still no announcement of the appointment of a Treasury Secretary, it's unclear who will implement them.

  • Iran has proposed to cap its supplies of enriched uranium, but France, Germany and the UK have formally tabled Accenture motion critical of the country.

  • We'll find out why.

  • We'll delve into the Peace Brigade International's report on links between UK companies, environmental devastation and attacks on rights activists.

  • And then even the last night trains that they canceled, they were profitable.

  • People are really fond of night trains.

  • I mean they love it to travel like this and it's a different market, so there's a demand.

  • We'll head to Utrecht to meet the co founder of a railway company putting night trains back on the European map.

  • And we'll hear how Japanese efficiency may improve London's Elizabeth Line as the Tokyo Metro is tapped to run the newest branch of the British capital's underground network.

  • That's all ahead here on the Globalist.

  • Live from London.

  • First, a look at what else is happening in the news.

  • Hamas says there will be no hostages for prisoners swap deal with Israel unless the war in Gaza ends.
