The Business: BA squeezes the unions

A technicality prevents the British Airways strikes going ahead. But what does the ruling say about democracy and the power of the unions?

At last, we have a new government which says it's serious about cutting the national overdraft. We discuss George Osborne's new quango, the Office for Budget Responsibility.

Head of business Dan Roberts, economics editor Larry Elliott and deputy City editor Jill Treanor are on the panel.

WARNING: contains strong language.
