Incapacity benefit and Easter
Your view on today's big news, great guests and Hits and Headlines, but what's the year?
1. BENEFITS - The Dept for Work & pensions has released figures showing that more than 80,000 people are claiming incapacity benefit for obesity or problems with drugs or alcohol. What is the best way of dealing with these people's problems? Do you have concerns over people becoming trapped in the benefits system? Should these people be sorting themselves out before claiming benefits?
2. EASTER - As around 900 Anglicans prepare to convert to Catholicism in protest over the Church of England's policy over women bishops, what does Easter mean to you? Is it all about chocolate or do your beliefs run deeper?
