WBR: UK slips into deflation 19 May 15

Tue, 19 May 15

The UK economy slips into deflation for the first time in more than 50 years, but are falling prices a cause for consumer relief or monetary1 concern? We speak to Roger Bootle of Capital Economics. There are fresh calls to cap bankers' pay from an influential2 UK political advisor3. Steve Hilton, a former right hand man of UK Prime Minister David Cameron, argues salaries should be capped at public sector4 rates in banks which have been bailed5 out by the taxpayer6. Anthony Browne, chief executive of the British Bankers' Association, says that would be a disaster for the industry. Plus, we have a special report from Gaza, a year after conflict erupted with Israel. Many firms and factories remain in ruins and movement of people in and out of the territory is severely7 restricted. But business is still being done amid the rubble8, as Roger Hearing explains.
