Is there anything wrong with Pakistanis using the P-word? Boxer Amir Khan's wife Faryal Makhdoom has apologised after facing a backlash for using the p word in an instagram post. Qasa Alom is asking whether using the p word is ever acceptable. After that he'll be hearing from some students at Woodhouse College in north London who are finding out their A-Level results. He’ll then be discussing aspirations. A survey of British Asians found they are more optimistic than the country when it comes to fulfilling their ambitions in the UK.  Later he’ll be joined by the ‘Ladies First’ panel to discuss all the week’s women’s issues.
