Description

Robin (Robert) Leigh-Pemberton, who became Governor of the Bank of England, has aroused hostility after only a few days in the post. Decision Makers finds out why he has caused this uproar- many put it down to his opposition to Labour policies. Economics spokesman for Labour, Jack Straw, voices his opinion; IRN’s financial editor Douglas Moffitt interviews the Governor as he defends his decisions. Peter Allen presents, produced with Judith Dawson and Dave Dawson.
