'UK debt hinders economic recovery'

Press TV

A prominent economist says the record-high UK public debt presents a long-term challenge of getting the public finances back on a sustainable footing.

Official data shows the UK public sector debt excluding financial interventions-- such as bank bailouts, has for the first time passed the 1-trillion-pound mark. 

Press TV has conducted an interview with Marco Pietropoli, RM Wealth Management, to further discuss the issue.
