The Bigger Picture: The vital role for unconventional people
Gavin Oldham, managing director of Share Radio, talks to Simon Rose about the important role unconventional people can play, particularly in leadership roles. While recognising why Boris Johnson could no longer be PM, he points to some of his achievements, feeling they will be remembered by posterity. In so many walks of life, particularly in politics and business, it is important that there are people who can go against the herd, who can challenge conventional ways of doing things and attempt to roll back over-regulation and bureaucracy.

The Business of Film: Thor – Love and Thunder & Donbass

The Business of Film: Thor – Love and Thunder & Donbass
James Cameron-Wilson looks at the UK box office, resilient in the better weather but only because of the arrival of Thor: Love and Thunder, taking £12.3m in the #1 spot. James found it the most expensive romcom of all time (costing $250m), often pantomimic and, in the end, atrocious. His faith in cinema was restored by catching up with the 2018 chilling black comedy Donbass from Ukraine, which is even more fascinating given the current conflict. It's available to buy and rent online.

The Financial Outlook for Personal Investors: What do the stats tell us on housing and the economy?
Victoria Scholar of Interactive Investor talks to Simon Rose about the current state of the housing market in the light of Barratt Developments' earnings. While the RICS show that price rises are slowing, the imbalance of housing supply and demand may provide support while UK rents have hit a record high. The latest GDP numbers were stronger than expected while retail sales continue to suffer; those retailers depending on discretionary spending are suffering most heavily.

This Is Money: What will Boris's downfall, a new Prime Minister and Chancellor mean for the economy and our finances?
Boris Johnson finally came unstuck this week and resigned as Prime Minister after one scandal too many caught up with him. Whatever you thought of the PM - and he certainly has the ability to divide a room almost as well as he can entertain it - there is no doubt that this ushers in another bout of 'what next?' instability for Britain. The economy is struggling, an inflation crisis is in full swing and the Bank of England is raising rates into a recession, yet at the end of a tumultuous week we are not just down one Prime Minister but a Chancellor and aren't quite sure if the new man in the job will be sticking around very long. The new Chancellor, Nadhim Zahawi, reportedly has designs of his own on the job next door at Number 10 and even if he makes an unsuccessful leadership bid, will a rival want him sticking around? Georgie Frost, Tanya Jefferies and Simon Lambert look at what the change in Prime Minister could mean for the UK's economy, businesses and households - and what a new Chancellor might do and the challenges they will face. Also, some big UK name household shares have taken a beating this year, but which would the experts pick as having fallen too far and as ripe for a bounce back? The team look at whether, with rates rising, a ten-year fixed rate mortgage is a good move and Tanya talks us through the latest round of state pension mistakes and what the DWP is doing. And finally, will you end up with a bit more cash when you get paid this month? Yet, another National Insurance change is kicking in, here's what it means.

Thought for the Week: There has to be a role for the unconventional

Thought for the Week

Thought for the Week: There has to be a role for the unconventional
People come in all shapes and sizes, and there are many people who have that strange combination of seemingly boundless energy and inherent unpredictability which are found in Mr Johnson. People who are more measured and reliable find them intensely frustrating, but there should still be a place for unconventional people, albeit not as prime minister. In this episode we find other examples in history of unconventional individuals who were also not accepted by many of the people with whom they worked, and we look not so much at weighing their offences but counting their merits in asking how the undoubtable strengths of someone like Boris can work for the benefit of all.
