The latest from Libya, plus the growing link between mental health problems and stress.

The latest on the evacuation of British people from Libya, the growing link between mental health problems and debt, and the Premier League footballer who's joined the RAF.

David Cameron says sorry for how the Government's handled the evacuation of British people from Libya. We speak to Shadow Foreign Secretary Douglas Alexander.

On this week's consumer panel in the first hour, we look at the growing link between mental health problems and debt, including a powerful interview with listener, whose debt made her feel suicidal. Also, we discuss the rising price of oil and its effect on fuel prices, and a Which? report suggesting we're getting poor advice about cheap train tickets.


We speak to the Premier League footballer who's swapped his boots for the battlefield. Former Manchester City player Lee Crooks tells about his life-changing decision to join the RAF.


Plus Stephen Nolan's in Limerick, testing the mood in the Republic as Ireland prepares for its election. And what do you think of an idea to widen the ban on smoking in Wales, to cover open spaces?
