Summary

In a week that saw Andy Burnham make his first speech pitching for Labour leader and the current prime minister revealing the government's Defence Investment Plan, Will Bain talks to our panel of experts on what that might mean for the economy. On Friday the former boss of John Lewis, Sir Charlie Mayfield, gives an update on his 'Keep Britain Working' review; one construction boss involved explains how she's trying to keep her workforce healthy. Plus, the owner of the company behind Cape Verde's football kit tells Wake Up to Money what it's like to see the club do so well in the World Cup while wearing its shirts.
