Covid cards, lottery ban, & mysterious monoliths

Welcome to episode 3 of Talking Money, with Martin Bamford and Hannah Godfrey.

In each episode of Talking Money, we take a topical look at the big money stories of the week, putting our personal spin on the news.

With V-Day this week and the start of a mass vaccination programme to bring the coronavirus under control, what do ‘covid cards’ mean for your rights to work, travel or enjoy a drink in the pub?

We also chat about plans to ban younger players from the National Lottery, as part of a broader reform of gambling legislations.

And will the mysterious metal monoliths appearing across the world turn out to be a PR campaign? We look at attitudes towards brands based on their behaviour during the pandemic.
