GDP unexpectedly falls, Bank of England stands firm and consumer confidence drops

As the fallout to the Chancellor’s mini-budget continues, Ian King’s joined by the Financial Times’ global pensions correspondent Josephine Cumbo, the Sunday Times’ associate editor Oliver Shah and Paul Dails – the UK chief economist at Capital Economics – to discuss the Bank of England’s latest moves, and an unexpected drop in GDP during August.

We also drop into the Treasury Select Committee to hear what industry experts think of the current situation (with Paul Johnson, Director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies and Professor Jagjit Chadha, Director of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research) and look at consumer confidence with PwC’s Lisa Hooker.

Ian also speaks to Dr Hemmel Amrania, who talks about a new breast cancer diagnosis tool.
