Lifestyle Choices

Boxing Ban?

Boxing Ban?

There have been renewed calls for boxing to be banned after the death of Scottish fighter Mike Towell.

The 25-year-old was rushed to hospital following his fight against Dale Evans in Glasgow and passed away 24 hours later.

Mr Towell's death comes less than seven months after Nick Blackwell suffered bleeding in his skull after a fight with Chris Eubank Jr.

Council Boycott

Council Boycott



On yesterday's programme we talked about a motion from Derry and Strabane Disctrict Council calling on newsagents to stop selling the Sun newspaper.
One of the contributors in the discussion suggested that this might contravene the Human Rights Act.

We told you we would look in to this, and we have.

Stephen talked to Les Allemby, Chief commissioner of the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission
