Tooth decay, Catering conditions, Car hire
Consumer news, including the fashionable restaurants that wouldn't dream of serving battery chicken but where the staff work twelve-hour days without a break.
New research suggests parents are not taking their children to the dentist. Is this the reason why tooth decay in children is rising rapidly? Or is it the misinformation about snacks and what foods cause decay? Or is it simply that its hard to get appointments for NHS dentists?

A European wide investigation of car hire practices has managed to get the leading companies involved to do better for their customers. Is this the end of the endless vehicle rental disaster stories we hear?
And promises to keep local bank branches open where there's a strong community need. Have we been let down?
