A year of the cost of living crisis

Britain is witnessing the worst squeeze on incomes in a generation as struggling households are hit by a double whammy of soaring energy costs and rocketing inflation.

Since February, Nick has followed three working households to see how they have been affected, witnessing first-hand the struggle to make ends meet. <br /><br />Note: This podcast contains reference to suicide.
