Tracing the roots of the financial crisis in reverse. They chose an avant-garde, school art project approach to not telling the story, just a lot of semi-related archive clips with zero narrative. I don't imagine many people made it to the end, but if so I'm sure they learned nothing either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nome Posted September 16, 2018 Author Share Posted September 16, 2018 And my other tip off about Help to Sell on Moneybox was quietly and conveniently dropped from the programme! (Unless it was such a brief mention that I missed it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saving For a Space Ship Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 On 14/09/2018 at 15:35, winkie said: It is not all bad.....got to pick your moments. +1 ..as usual ? the power of councils and charges of bankruuptcy administrators this was disturbing in this R4 prog today https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0bksgnc Debt Killed My Dad File on 4 In August, Jessica Hurst wrote to the media asking them to investigate how her dad’s debts of just under £12,000 became a bill of just under £73,000. Nigel Hurst killed himself a year ago after learning that bailiffs were to repossess his family home. It was the bailiff who found him. Student, Jessica, was left with a pile of debt recovery letters and bank statements which she hoped would hold the clue to his financial troubles. File on 4 reporter Helen Grady takes up Jessica’s challenge. Her findings include the fact that councils are increasingly enforcing council tax debts, often using aggressive tactics which have been outlawed or become outdated in the private sector. And that bankruptcy can trigger a series of punitive charges - including some paid directly to the Government - which can make a manageable debt unmanageable.

'Establishment' is too tin foil hatted for me - shadowy people, levers of control etc etc. Inreality it is what it is - a 'sink' of dummies, protected from any form of accountability or competition by a 'Pay the license or go to jail' system.
