This is our last episode of 2020 and we do a run down of the year looking at the people and laws that made headlines throughout the year and turning our attention to predictions for 2021. Our special guest, Alex Wild from HCR solicitors gives his thoughts and opinions on everything from the moratorium, the made rush of insovlencies supposedly due next year and what will replace the pre pack pool. 

Happy listening!

This week Neil, Richard, Andy and I discuss a mishmash of topics from Brexit, the extension of the ban on statutory demands to the death of Barbara Windsor.

This week, Neil, Richard and I discuss the aftermath of the CPI exam, The bleak outlook for Leon, Arcadia Group and Cineworld and Neil remains as impartial as ever about Philip Green. Finally we wrap up with a tribute to Maradonna, who did not sing Like a Virgin dispite what was on Twitter. 

This week's big news was obviously the CPI exam and unfortunately not for the right reasons. Hear our thoughts live and unfiltered after a day of consoling, empathising and standing up for our students and their sponsors. We also discuss a bit of news too.
