Butter sales, Living wage, Leasehold disaster

Available for over a year

The National Living Wage will arrive in April, designed to lift the wages of the lowest paid. Almost three million people are expected to get a pay rise and the government is advertising it as "a step up for Britain". But how are employers planning to meet the costs of paying their workers more? You and Yours investigates. Butter sales are up on the back of health industry stories about so-called good fats. But who spread the myths about our favourite fats in the first place? Margarine was once the darling of home bakers, now sales are in the doldrums, is that where they deserve to be? And the residents of a block of Birmingham flats who bought their homes with leases only to find themselves liable for thousands of pounds of yearly ground rents they didn't expect and can't afford to pay. As the number of leasehold properties in the UK rises steadily, we ask what will remedy these conflicts between homeowners and freeholders.
