Wake Up to Money

Available for 28 days

Leanna Byrne takes a look at new PM Andy Burnham's raft of new policy announcements and asks how the new government will pay for his 're-prioritisation' of public spending. Elsewhere, we'll look at some new research into airport parking charges and what a 30%+ increase annually means for business travel. And we'll evaluate what a Jeff Bezos-owned Liverpool FC might look like after the billionaire Amazon founder was reportedly approached by a consortium looking to buy the club.
