John Hood, from the Equality Trust, discusses why millions are not saving
More than 6.5 million households have either none or very little savings according to new research from The Equality Trust. More than 40 per cent of working households have too little saved to pay even a month's worth of household bills, let alone cover one-off bills such as the typical £540 cost of a replacement boiler. Over a third of households owe more in debt that they have saved. Our reporter Mary Newman spoke to John Hood, from the Equality Trust.

Robyn Dwyer is joined in the studio by Kevin White, Head of UK Financial at De Vere. Today they discuss the big story of the day, that the National Institute for Economic and Social Research is forecasting inflation will quadruple to about 4 per cent in the second half of next year. Elsewhere, and and its bad news for the economy as UK growth will slow sharply next year due to Brexit. But some good news for airline EasyJet as pilots have accepted a new deal - meaning they won't strike over concerns about fatigue. All these stories and more on The News Review.
