You and Yours - 13/10/2008

Presented by Julian Worricker. A former broker confesses to targeting people on benefits and tells us how and why he encouraged them to sign up for home loans that they would struggle to pay. Steve Punt wonders what working life will be like for the city boys who have had to move on from the Square Mile. A year after his mother died of dementia, we meet Sir Cliff Richard in an Alzheimer's Society Cafe in Weybridge, Surrey, which he helped fund. Two NHS Foundation Trusts have a total of eight and a half million pounds at risk in Icelandic banks. Shari Vahl reports from the press conference at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester, the Trust with the most to lose. 37 billion pounds of our money is going into three high street banks. In return, the banks are committed to competitively-priced lending to homeowners over the next three years, help for people struggling with mortgage payments and an expectation that no cash bonuses will be paid to senior executives this year, with a review of that remuneration policy in the longer term.
