Is the sluggish Scottish retail sector all thanks to the second Scottish referendum?
The Scottish Retail Consortium in conjunction with KPMG has released its latest retail sales monitor today. It seems the retail sector in Scotland has got off to a somewhat sluggish start with the figures suggesting Scottish consumers are beginning to tighten their belts. However, with Spring just around the corner perhaps the high-street will become more appealing? Joining Nigel Cassidy to discuss further was Ewan MacDonald-Russell, Head of Policy at the Scottish Retail Consortium.

There's a record-breaking 4 million businesses in the UK - but can they last?
New figures just out show that the number of companies in the UK has reached a record high - breaking the four million threshold for the first time. The boom is fuelled in a large part by the formation of new companies, with roughly 665 thousand started in the UK last year. But is this symptomatic of a flexible, dynamic workforce - or are there just no more full time jobs? Nigel Cassidy was joined by Jonathan Richards, CEO at breatheHR, a firm that provides software to SMEs.

It's time to talk politics. On today's programme: the Prime Minister now has the power to begin the UK's departure from the European Union. Last night Parliament passed the Government's Article 50 Bill, allowing Theresa May to pull the so-called Brexit trigger. Meanwhile, the Dutch are heading to the polls in an election billed as putting the entire European Union at stake.
