Sean Curran has the best of a busy day in the Commons and the Lords.

As the latest unemployment figures come out, the party leaders Ed Miliband and David Cameron do battle over the economy at Prime Minister's Question time in the Commons. Sean Curran watches the fiesty exchanges. Also on the programme:
* Simon Jones follows the ultimately unsuccessful attempt by peers to de-rail the Bill that shakes up the running of the National Health Service in England.
* Chris Bond reports on the Commons statement that there'll be no inquiry into the killing of the Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane.
* Peter Mulligan hears both sides of the argument over Ministers' proposals for altering the rules on planning.
