UKIP's by-election victory, Band Aid, bedroom and mansion taxes and firefighter pensions.

Listeners have their say on the issues discussed on Any Questions? UKIP's by-election victory, Band Aid and Ebola, bedroom and mansion taxes and firefighter retirement age.

Why are people voting for UKIP? Was its victory this week a temporary protest vote or a long term political shift? Should other parties be more like UKIP or challenge them more robustly?

Does Band Aid 30 paint a patronising or even damaging picture of west Africa? Or is any help against ebola welcome?

Also - Bedroom tax or mansion tax. Are either fair or effective?

And - firefighters have been campaigning against moves to raise their retirement age from 55 to 60. We're living longer and healthier. Can we afford not to push back the pension age?
