UKIP, Band Aid, firefighter retirement, bedroom and mansion taxes

Listeners have their say on the issues discussed on Any Questions? UKIP's by-election victory, Band Aid and Ebola, bedroom and mansion taxes and firefighter retirement age.

Why are people voting for UKIP? Was its victory this week a temporary protest vote or a long term political shift? Should other parties be more like UKIP or challenge them more robustly?

Does Band Aid 30 paint a patronising or even damaging picture of west Africa? Or is any help against ebola welcome?

Also - Bedroom tax or mansion tax. Are either fair or effective?

And - firefighters have been campaigning against moves to raise their retirement age from 55 to 60. We're living longer and healthier. Can we afford not to push back the pension age?

Have your say on the issues discussed on Any Questions?
