BBC Radio Ulster - The Nolan Show, Manifesto Interview: Alliance Party's Stephen Farry

Alliance Party election manifesto pledges under inspection.

Alliance have been in the media spotlight for the past couple of days - this morning it will be their election manifesto pledges under inspection.

Alliance have been front page news the past couple of days over a "fake callers" row around BBC show Talkback. The Belfast Telegraph revealed a party plot to "hijack" their party leader phone-ins to show Alliance in a good light. Well today it just happens to be turn of the Alliance party in the studio as part of our election manifesto series. The deputy leader of the party Stephen Farry joined Vinny in studio.

Also on the programme, pay more for your booze! A local health charity is calling on the government to stop the sale of cheap alcohol by taking action on pricing. NI Chest Heart and Stroke says that introducing a minimum unit price of 50p would save an estimated 63 lives a year here and result in almost 2,500 fewer hospital admissions. Vinny gets the views of commentator Basil McCrea and Dave Atherton from the Freedom to Choose group.
