The world's largest asset manager BlackRock is warning that big spending pledges by politicians ahead of the election could spark a revolt in the bond market. Why the markets matter to politics is a theme on this podcast - so we've brought in our economics reporter Lucy White and Bloomberg Opinion columnist (and bond market expert) Marcus Ashworth for their analysis. Meanwhile, the Post Office accounting scandal is dominating conversations in Westminster. Reporter Sabah Meddings tells us what politicians want to happen next. Plus, our interview with the Chief Economist of the CBI business lobby, Louise Hellem, on the outlook for the financial services sector. Hosted by Lizzy Burden and Stephen Carroll.
