Paddy O'Connell discusses politeness, Liam Fox, miscarriages and spitting.

Paddy O'Connell discusses the British becoming politer, the ongoing Liam Fox row, women who have suffered miscarriages and the council trying to ban spitting.

Paddy O'Connell sits in for Jeremy.

A new report says that, contrary to what we might think, the British are becoming politer. For one day only, take part in the Radio 2 Politeness Awards 2011. Who would you like to nominate?

The Defence Secretary Liam Fox has apologised following the row over the role of a personal friend in Ministry of Defence business. Have you ever tried to help a friend get on and then regretted it?

Women who suffered miscarriages are being put through emotional torture when they are placed in the same wards as mothers and babies.

And Enfield Council is trying to ban spitting. Is spitting ever acceptable?

Amazing music. Played by an amazing line up.
