UK says no to Brexit border checks - will EU chief buy it?
The government has said there must be an "unprecedented solution" for the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic after Brexit.
The government has said there must be an "unprecedented solution" for the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic after Brexit. A paper detailing its proposals focuses on the need to avoid a hard border. The government stresses there should be no physical infrastructure, such as customs posts, at the border, which has almost 300 crossing points. Critics say the proposals lack credible detail, with Labour deriding the plans for the border as "a fantasy frontier". Stephen spoke to Sinn Fein TD David Cullinane and Alliance MLA Stephen Farry.
Also on the programme, taxi licence backlog - drivers hit out at delays affecting their livelihoods.
And, shoe manufacturer Clark have removed their 'Dolly Babe' kids shoe from its website - following outrage from some of their customers. With pink insoles and dainty hearts - the shoes are aimed at little girls, but parents were furious at the alternative boy choice - which is called 'Leader'. Sturdy, black and decorated with footballs. They have been accused of sexism - but what do you think? Clarks have said "... we are working hard to ensure our ranges reflect our gender-neutral ethos...". Is it an overreaction? Can children's shoes really be gender neutral? Stephen got the views of Emma Woolf and Martin Daubney and we took your calls.
