    Through all tuition courses it is advised to subscribe to business pages of an edition in order to be aware of the burning events & to be able to give out an example at the exam ( to show off the application of knowledge). Could anyone please advise any relevant source of news (preferably online & free of charge :))? Thanks in advance…

    I listen to the BBC news o the radio each evening as I drive home. There are frequently news items which I can relate to a P1 topic.

    Watch the world news on the television – there are frequently …….

    Read the quality newspapers in your own country. There are frequently ….

    I am truly amazed that you find it difficult to relate real-life news items to P1. Matters of poor governance, CEOs doubling up as Chairs, outrageous pay rises / bonuses, share-bsed incentives granted to directors in an effort to reward performance and incentivise future performance, social responsibility ( selling drugs to poor countries at 5% of their UK . US retail price )

    It’s almost every day that there’s something P1 related ( and I haven’t above mentioned BP and their episodic epic performance in the Gulf of Mexico, not Union Carbide and their poisoning of people in Bhopal, nor the Chinese baby-formula company found guilty of poisoning babies, nor the Estonian vodka producers who mixed anti-freeze with the spirit nor ….. loads of examples! )
