The Business: Keeping it in the family

On this week's Business podcast, Aditya Chakrabortty is joined by Dan Milmo to analyse the dramatic deal announced by British Airways chief executive Willie Walsh under which the airline industry will halve its carbon emissions by 2050. We look at the knock-on costs to customers, and ask, is the era of cheap travel finally over?

Plus, Nick Mathiason and Deborah Hargreaves give their take on the allegations that Lloyds - the bank bailed out with £17bn of public money - has encouraged its wealthiest customers to avoid paying UK tax.

Finally, after sportswear giants Adidas and Puma make nice on a fraternal feud dating back to the second world war - Grant Gordon, director general of the Institute for Family Business, discusses the pros and cons of keeping business in the family.
