What can we expect from the Bank of England's interest rate decision later?
Joining Georgie Frost to discuss the latest market headlines was Share Radio's very own Nigel Cassidy starting with this morning's company announcements. We've heard from Sainsbury's and Eurostar this morning. And we have the Bank of England's interest rate decision later. It will be the last before the UK starts formal proceedings to exit the EU. This comes after the US Federal Reserve raised interest rates on Wednesday by a quarter of a percentage point to 1 per cent. It's the second rise in three months - and only the third-time rates have been put up since the 2008 financial crisis. So what can we expect?

What do young people look for in a job?

Research shows that under-35 year olds are more likely to proiritise flexible working hours and holiday allowance over workplace pension contributions. But is this a generational preference or are auto-enrolment pensions schemes not desirable enough? Our reporter Anviksha Patel spoke to Alistair McQueen, Head of Savings and retirement at Aviva to find out more. Alistair began by explaining Aviva's research.

Meet the man making drinks from wonky fruit
Every year, a third of the world's food is wasted - that's about 1.3 billion tonnes. In the UK alone, we chuck away over 10 million tonnes a year. And some of it is perfectly good - irregular shaped fruit is rejected by food and drink providers because it doesn't look nice. One company's putting those rejects to good use: Georgie was joined by Maciej Kacprzyk, co-founder of Wonky Drinks.

Support for Scottish Independence is as strong as ever
To go through all the political headlines this morning, Georgie Frost was joined Billy Bambrough, Editor of Verdict.co.uk. A survey shows support for Scottish independence is at its highest ever. The ScotCen research group says 46 percent of the Scottish public want a split from the UK - that's a record level for the annual poll. But the Scottish Social Attitudes survey also suggested the popularity of the European Union has fallen.
