About this episode

This week, Heather and Roger are talking about Labour’s proposals to clamp down on “tax dodgers”, what they’re planning to do about non-doms, the impact the plans are already having, and the tax shock that some pensioners might now be facing.

But most importantly, they talk about marshmallows.
