Thatcher's Favourite Fraudster | Ragtrade to Riches | 1

from British Scandal

It’s the 1980s. Margaret Thatcher’s Britain is all about making it big if you work hard enough, and boy, does Asil Nadir get the memo. He transforms small textile firm, Polly Peck into a FTSE 100 giant. The City loves him; the Iron Lady thinks he’s marvellous. But when they learn the truth, his empire starts to crumble.Do you have a suggestion for a scandal you would like us to cover? Or perhaps you have a question you would like to ask our hosts?
