Do you support the fuel protesters?
Graham Stewart takes your calls on the lorry drivers who're staging a "go slow" protest along the M8. Plus: Should the organisers of Orange and Republican marches pay the costs of policing?
A convoy of 80 lorries is making its way along the M8 from North Lanarkshire to Edinburgh in a "go slow" protest over the cost of fuel. In the last year the price of fuel has increased by 25 per cent. Haulage companies say they're having to lay people off and the extra costs could be passed on to all of us.
Plus: Should organisers of Orange and Republican marches pay the cost of policing them?
As we approach the height of the marching season in Scotland, it's estimated that the bill to the taxpayer of policing Orange and Republican marches is 拢1m. Should the likes of the Orange Order and the James Connolly society help pay for the policing?
Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
