A row has broken out over plans by Michelle O'Neill to attend an event commemorating eight IRA men shot dead by the SAS. The event is to mark 30 years since the men were killed as they blew up a police station in Loughgall. It's been criticised by the DUP - but is it an insult to victims, or a legitimate commemoration of the dead? Stephen got the views of Andersonstown news columist Andree Murphy, commentator and former MLA Nelson McCausland, commentator Jude Collins and victims campaigner Kenny Donaldson.

Also on the programme, former MP Edwina Currie rubbishes idea of millions of kids going hungry in the UK - she debates with commentator Fionola Meredith.

Plus, pacts talks stumble as Green Party's Steven Agnew launches attack on SDLP MP Alasdair McDonnell.

And, rider death at Tandragee 100 races raises questions over the safety of the sport.
