The BBC publishes the names of anyone paid more than £150,000 from licence fee revenue.

The BBC publishes its annual report half an hour after today's show. And for the first time, it will publish the names of anyone paid more than £150,000 from licence fee revenue in that financial year. This was imposed as part of the charter which came into effect at the start of 2017. It has been reported that 96 names will be on the list, and that roughly one third will be women and two thirds men. The debate today - do you think it is right that the names of those people are being revealed? Stephen was joined by the commentator Ross Clark, former Tory MP Jerry Hayes and media analyst Tony Axon.

Also on the programme, should nurses have to pay to park at work? The Royal College of Nursing says some are having to pay up to £18.00 a day in Belfast but should it be free for nurses to park at every hospital? Stephen spoke to Garret Martin, Deputy Director of the Royal College of Nursing and commentator Charlie Wolff says nurses should pay for parking, like everyone else who takes the car to work.

And, Stephen is getting stick because he's got an Irish passport as well as a British - is that really a big deal? Loyalist blogger Jamie Bryson and businessman Brendan Mulgrew debate.
