On this edition of This Is Money, Editor Simon Lambert and Personal Finance Editor Rachel Rickard-Strauss are in to talk more Brexit fall-out, of course; will Mark Carney’s reassuring tones be enough to steady the ship, as Sterling falls further than we've seen since Walter Mondale was a relevant cultural reference? We’ll also be looking at property fund lockouts, and why you should NEVER trust them with your pension. And stay tuned to the end as we have a rare win for the little guy, to the tune of £19 Billion! This is Money is presented in partnership with NS&I, and hosted by Georgie Frost.

Ever since the referendum result was announced, there has a been a firestorm of recrimination about the lies and half-truths that both sides told.

Danny also compares one of the PR strategies used in the 2015 general election, the fear of change, and how this same approach achieved very different results in the referendum. Nick also looks at artisan craft-based advertising with copy writing expert Nick Parker and John Donovan of GumGum.
