Synopsis
Nicky Campbell and Shelagh Fogarty with news that ballots have been sent out to postal workers proposing a national strike. Formula 1's Eddie Irvine on allegations of race-fixing allegations levelled at Renault and BBC Trust Chairman Sir Michael Lyons hits back at critics. Plus, could laws intended to stop lap dancing clubs actually target the theatre instead?
In sport, referees will have four assistants in Europa League matches tonight and there's reaction to Arsenal's victory from the jaws of defeat in the Champion's League.
Eddie Irvine: "You do anything to win"
Former Ferrari and Jordan driver Eddie Irvine says that drivers and teams have always done whatever it takes to win a race.
Speaking to Shelagh Fogarty, he tells BBC Radio 5 live Breakfast that the investigation of Renault is part of the sanitisation of Formula 1 by the FIA and that the sport is becoming "politically correct".
