Lesley’s guests on Riddoch Questions this week include Director of WWF Scotland, Dr Richard Dixon and Lib Dem MP for East Dunbartonshire, Jo Swinson.
Making the headlines so far this week:
• SWINE FLU – another animal related flu scare has got the tabloids in a frenzy, but is the public just as alarmed? Or are we becoming too blasé to panic about yet more rumours of a flu epidemic?
• EQUALITY BILL – the British government’s new legislation will encourage firms to carry out ‘gender pay audits’ and allow ‘positive discrimination’ – but how do Britain’s businesses feel about the new measures?
• ENERGY APPRENTICES – one hundred apprentices are to be trained to help people in Scotland make their homes more energy efficient – but should they also be telling people they could be prosecuted if they don’t insulate, as suggested by Dr Richard Dixon of WWF Scotland?
