Belfast City Council's new policy in removing bonfire material ended up in a day of violence which left Belfast burning. Cars were burnt out in the Markets in broad daylight, police were attacked and a building was set on fire in the Falls Road area by rioting youths in nationalist areas. Petrol bombs, bricks and bottles were thrown at police in rioting in the Markets. The trouble started after contractors hired by the council moved in to remove material from anti-internment bonfires in the area. There was further disorder in the New Lodge and North Queen Street. Stephen got reaction from Sinn Fein councillor Deirdre Hargey, UUP Cllr Jim Rodgers, Alliance Cllr Emmet McDonough-Brown and we took your calls.

Also on the programme, bedlam and confusion over electric bikes - you could be done if you don't have licence, insurance and tax. Stephen got reaction from commentator and keen cyclist Malachi O'Doherty, Green Party leader Steven Agnew and Alliance MLA Chris Lyttle.
