The Yes/No Challenge for politicians
Tired of hearing politicians avoid answering yes or no to interview questions - one listener wrote to us appealing for some straightforward answers.
So we asked the three main UK parties if they could each provide us with an MP to answer yes or no to questions sent in by listeners.
The Conservative shadow housing minister Grant Shapps agreed to take part. As did the Liberal Democrat MP Norman Baker who speaks for the party on transport and the Labour MP for Ealing North, Stephen Pound.
As some of you missed the programme from a few weeks ago - here's the discussion. Each politician answers a series of ten yes/no questions and talks about what makes it so difficult (Duration: 11.40 mins).
And if you want to hear Eddie Mair take a yes/no challenge (he really does spend all day Googling himself), have a listen here (Duration: 1.10 mins).

Will you abolish the tv licence fee? Put the BBC on subscription channels so that people who don't want Celebs Prancing About in Sequins won't have to pay for it, and people who want sport can have all they want. And make trhem VOLUNTARY subscriptions not COMPULSORY ones
