We've a guests who says 'yes they should' and you can talk to her later. It's boiled down to the following three stories after the morning meeting.

TIME TO PAY UP ON SLAVERY?
Tony Blair has been talking of the 'sorrow' felt by Britain for its involvement in the slave trade. Is the best way of making up for what happened, not to talk about it but to pay up? Is the economic wealth of the West partly based on slavery, and should reparations now be paid?
One person who answers yes to that question is Esther Stanford from the Rendezvous of Victory Campaign and we're delighted to say that since the meeting we've got hold of her and she's going to come in to speak to us with all. You can join her from 1800GMT.
HOW BAD IS VIOLENCE IN SCHOOLS WHERE YOU LIVE, AND HOW DO YOU STOP IT?
Those are two of the questions that Detroit teacher Marcy Wells wanted asking on World Have Your Say. Today with your help, we'll try and get some answers. If you'd like to talk to her, email us your number.
So that's the plan. Speak to you later.
