BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Olympic Journey

The Package Travel Regulations - are they fit for purpose?

With Peter White. A loophole in the Package Travel Regulations, the councils clamping down on free leafleting and a look inside US fashion giant Forever 21's new flagship store.

The Association of Independent Tour Operators say a loophole in the Package Travel Regulations means they're not fit for purpose.

We hear how one council clamped down on free leafleting in its shopping areas,. But has reducing the litter also reduced the vibrancy of their town?

Plus deaf comedian Steve Day gives his assessment of the Olympic journey from Heathrow to Stratford.

And the US fashion giant 'Forever 21' has opened its flagship store in London's Oxford Street. They offer cheap fashion to the young but also a dose of religion with a bible verse on every shopping bag. 

Presented by Peter White. Produced by Karen Dalziel.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
