The Spending Trap
Hard though she has tried over the past five years. Mrs Thatcher has not managed to meet her pledge to cut government spending. She's been beaten by such basics as birth, death and old age.
How the spending trap has tightened around successive governments, how it might be sprung and the mayhem that could cause, are explained by Mary Goldring.
Producer DAVID MORTON (Repeated: Fri 11.0 am)
