Euro crisis hits local business + Schools places pressure from immigrant families

South Northants MP Andrea Leadsom says local businesses are being hit by the crisis in the Euro zone & Northants County council says the pressure on school places is from families from Eastern Europe.

South Northamptonshire Conservative MP Andrea Leadsom says businesses in her constituency are being hit by the crisis in the Euro zone. She talks to Stuart about the consequences of the G20 summit in Mexico.

Councillor Andrew Grant, reponsible for education at Northamptonshire County Council tells Stuart that the pressure for places at the County's schools is a result of families moving into the area from outside Northamptonshire, particularly from Eastern Europe. Liberal Democrat County Councillor Jenny Conroy says the Council's controlling Conservative group are guilty of a lack of foresight and bad planning.
