NI Spend on Awards Near the Top for All UK Councils

Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Council come second in the UK for money spent on awards ceremonies, forking out over 拢160,000.

Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Council come second in the UK for money spent on awards ceremonies - forking out over 拢160,000. Stephen speaks with ABC councillor Arnold Hatch, Harry Fone from the Taxpayers Alliance and Se谩n McPeake - mid Ulster Sinn Fein councillor and NILGA vice president.

Also on the programme, Stephen talks to 25 year-old Mark Dobson who has received two kidney transplants in his young life - most recently a kidney donated by his mum, former MLA Joanne Dobson.

And, Songs of Praise has been shifted to an earlier time slot on a Sunday by the 成人快手.
This has led to claims from some - that the organisation is 'marginalising Songs of Praise' and other faith based programming. The 成人快手 have said it鈥檚 to ensure consistency in scheduling, but in 2019, should there still be a place for it on our screens? Peter Lynas from the Evangelical Alliance and Boyd Slater from Northern Ireland Humanists share their views with Stephen.

All that and more on the biggest show in the country.
