Parking tickets, loyalty cards and flat-faced dogs

You and Yours

Available for over a year

A year ago, the government announced changes to the way private car parks are managed including a cap on the maximum fine amount. But they're not in place yet, following a legal challenge from some parking companies. We'll hear why the industry thinks £50 isn't enough to stop people parking where they're not supposed to. Meanwhile, as a new campaign is launched urging people to think twice before buying flat-faced dogs like pugs, is the trend starting to level off? Avanti has been given an extension on its deal to run train services in the North West of England. We ask what that means for passengers. Also - how changes to the Boots Advantage Card point to a new approach by retailers to keeping our custom, and - three years on from lockdown - who's still wearing their tracksuits? PRESENTER: FELICITY HANNAH PRODUCER: TOM MOSELEY
