Wake Up to Money: 'Economic emergency'

'Economic emergency'

BBC Radio 5 Live - Wake Up to Money, 'Economic emergency'

Did Rishi Sunak do enough yesterday to tackle the UK's 'economic emergency'?

Mark goes through the Spending Review and hears why Apple and Amazon are being criticised for not doing enough to help customers repair and recycle their gadgets.

There was help for jobs and some controversial cuts as the Chancellor tries to dig us out of a crisis he says has only just begun. Was there enough in Rishi Sunak's Spending Review to help the economy recover? 
And how long have you had your phone? Big companies like Apple and Amazon need to do more to help customers hold onto their devices for longer and recycle them properly at the end of their lives. That's according to a committee of MPs concerned about the UK's mountain of so called e-waste.
