Is anyone aware of topical questions that are likely to come up this June in Economics?

Any questions that your teacher recommended preparing or came up in your mocks please post here! It would be of great benefit to all of us

For example questions came up in my mocks asking about how the government could combat the growing problem of obesity and the effect of the government introducing free GP care for under 5's.

Just remember most of the papers were set at the end of last summer.

Don't think thats always the case for economics because they often have questions about changes the government make in their most recent budget

If the water tax doesn't come up I'll eat my hat.

In last year's Ordinary Level paper there were four quotes from newspaper articles; three from October 2012 and one from June 2012

Back on topic, I'd guess the large rise DIRT and the effects it is supposed to have on consumer spending/saving/economy in general
