Evan and Sarah ask ‘Who owns Britain?’

The Radio 4 presenters ask whether foreign ownership matters

As the government takes over the UK’s last functioning steel blast furnaces from a Chinese company, and the American firm De la Rue plans to take over the printer of British bank notes, we ask: Who owns the UK?

In this week's Figuring It Out, the World At One's Sarah Montague and PM's Evan Davis chat about overseas investment in British companies.

Listen to the World At One and PM on Radio 4 and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds.
