The Budget | Lobbyists | Britain & Israel | Asian Vote

Politics UK

Available for over a year

On Politics UK this week with Susan Hulme: Britain's finance minister doesn't sugar-coat his budget for the recession-hit voters - but will foreign investors now find the UK a sweeter prospect? In the week where ex-minister Stephen Byers described himself as a "cab for hire" we look at the light and dark sides of political lobbying. Britain's relations with Israel in the wake of the forging of British passports. And how a new computer system aims to target voters from Britain's Asian communities in the coming general election.
