Energy Price Cap; Right to Light; Bacon Backlash
Energy bills are set to increase this week but the big jump will come in January - we hear what it will mean and who it will impact - plus are we falling out of love with bacon?
With the energy price cap going up by an estimated 4% on Thursday, and winter looming, energy bills will be on people's minds this week. But that increase is set to be eclipsed by a much bigger increase in January. Tom Goswell from the energy consultancy Cornwall Insight joins the programme to share their latest forecasting.
How a 'right to light' claim went wrong for one listener. If a new building springs up next to your home and blocks your view you may be entitled to compensation. But we have a cautionary tale of what can happen when "no-win-no-fee" firms get involved.
Plus the bacon backlash; still one of the nation's favourite breakfasts but sales are dropping as growing awareness of potential risks put some shoppers off. But is new nitrate-free bacon the answer?
