'The inequality has just grown and grown and grown' - LibDem MP Sir Nick Harvey on rural/urban school funding. Plus Scottish farmers say they're missing out on EU subsidy.

'The inequality has just grown and grown and grown:' The Liberal Democrat MP for North Devon, Sir Nick Harvey, claims successive Governments have failed to fund rural schools as adequately as urban schools.

Scottish farmers are angry that EU funding which they believe should come their way will be shared across the UK.

Presented by Anna Hill and produced by Sarah Swadling.
