BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Fake Vets; Loan Charge, Car Finance Mis-selling

Alarm bells over the rapid rise of dog fertility clinics.

Alarm bells over the rapid rise of unlicensed and unregulated dog fertility clinics. Plus how millions of drivers could have been mis-sold car finance deals as FCA launches probe.

New figures reveal there's been huge surge in dog fertility clinics many of which are offering services which should be only performed by, or under the supervision of, registered vets. We hear how vets are dealing with the aftermath of the treatment dogs receive in these clinics and an animal rescue centre manager tells us she's having to put down more and more dogs because of the way in which these clinics are operating. 

Ahead of a debate in parliament we'll be discussing the Loan Charge, a controversial tax measure which has been linked to a number of suicides. We'll be hearing from someone about what happened when she found out she owed HMRC approximately £100,000 and why she doesn't believe the Loan Charge is justified or fair. 

And millions of drivers could be in line for compensation as a result of an FCA investigation into car finance mis-selling. We hear from one person who believes he might be one of them - plus the FCA tell us more about what their investigation could achieve.
