7PM Musa Kusa: Should we offer him diplomatic immunity, or should he face the full force of British and international law for any part he played in the planning of Lockerbie and other Libyan atrocities? Does his defection signal the imminent collapse of the Gadaffi regime? Should rebel forces take heart from what he’s done?

8PM The future of the high street: Oddbins are about to go into administration, many high street chains have plummeting takings. What’s the future for the British High Street? Are we spending all our money in supermarkets and online? Is it our fault that small independent shops are disappearing from the high street? Or will they experience a revival?

On My LBC Show From 7pm...

7PM Libya: As rumours circulate that Al Qadea have infiltrated the rebel forces, could it be that we have been hoodwinked into exacerbating a civil war? Could this be on a par with what happened in Iraq if we’re not careful? Nick Clegg thinks the exact opposite. Is he right?

8PM Religious Education: It emerged today that children as young as four will be taught about atheism. Isn’t this proof enough that religious education has had its day and should be consigned to the dustbin of history? Should we ban religious education in schools which aren’t faith based?

7PM The Riots: As we all take stock of what happened at the weekend I want to ask how a repeat an be prevented and in particular how the Police can protect the poor shopowners who have been targeted again – not by anarchists but by balaclava wearing cowardly thugs. Are UKuncut the naïve innocents they try to portray themselves as, or something more sinister?

8PM EMA: The government announced today that the Education Maintenance Allowance isn’t to be completely abolished. Another U turn, or a wise move which targets money at those who most need it? And we also hear today of a study which predicts there will be 45,000 fewer students in future. Perhaps you think that’s a good thing!

9PM LBC Book Club with David Starkey, author of Crown & Country – The Kings & Queens of England, a history, paperback, £14.99, Harper Press.

8PM Abortion: Next week a cross party group of MPs is launching a fresh bid to restrict abortions. They want women to be forced to receive pre termination counselling, but from an organisation that does not itself carry out abortions and they want to strip the Royal College of Obstetricians of their role in setting clinical guidelines on abortions. Do you think these are MPs are trying to ban abortions by the back door? Or do you agree with them that abortions are too freely available in this country?

Tonight on my LBC Show From 7pm...

7PM Aid to Africa: Lord Mandelson has courted controversy again by suggesting that African aid has been wasted and created an army of ‘professional beggars’. He said money should have been poured into trade deals rather than handouts. Is Peter Mandelson right? Should we reconfigure our aid policies and make them dependent on trade?

8PM Dentistry: We keep being told that it is easier to find an NHS dentist than ever before. But a survey out today shows that the cost of NHS dentistry is encouraging people to delay dental treatment of opt for cheaper care. And 10% of people don’t go to the dentist because they are scared stiff and 20% don’t go because of bad experiences with their dentist. Why do we British care so little for our teeth? And why isn’t dental care free at the point of use, just like any other medical treatment?

British Dental Association wouldn’t put up a spokesman because – and I quote – "It’s been a long day". Pathetic.

Hope you enjoyed Alastair Campbell last night. Tonight, I'm back with a budgetary vengeance... We've got Harriet Harman, Andy Burnham, David Gauke, Matthew Hancock and John Woodock on the show tonight. Impressive, huh?

7PM Were you a budget winner or budget loser? What was the best thing about the budget, what was the worst thing? Budgets are always about winners and losers, and I guess the political success of a budget depends on whether there are more winners and losers. Do you feel this has been a budget for you, or was it a budget in the national interest? Or do you agree with Ed Miliband that it was a non budget – it did nothing for jobs, nothing for growth and nothing for the country? Guests: Harriet Harman and Andy Burnham

8PM Ask the Minister with David Gauke: Exchequer Secretary David Gauke will be joining me for an hour to take questions from LBC listeners on the phone about the budget. Was it a budget for jobs, a budget for growth, or a damp squib? If you want to quiz a Treasury minister, this is YOUR opportunity.

7PM Cameron v Obama: As David Cameron basks in the afterglow of a diplomatic triumph, do you look at him in a different light. Barack Obama was described as the weakest president in history today. Has he failed to give a lead over Libya. Has yes We can changed to Er, maybe we shouldn’t?

8PM Squatting is to be made illegal: Squatting seems to have become more commonplace in recent times. Ken Clarke, the Justice Minister is about to make it illegal, giving homeowners the right to immediately gain possession of their illegally occupied homes. About time? Or overkill? Do you think this is an attack on the weak and vulnerable by an uncaring government determined to protect its supporters who own big empty houses?

9PM What is the solution to urban foxes? Ministers have rejected calls for urban foxes to be reclassified as vermin. Some MPs wanted them to be reclassified to make a cull easier. Are foxes vermin, or should we just live and let live?

8PM Germany has announced a measured exit from nuclear power: Should we follow suit? Or is this a total overreaction by a government which should know better? Isn’t it important that nuclear power remains part of our energy supply mix, or do you think that now is the time to reconsider our commitment to nuclear energy?

7PM People’s Pledge: Today a cross party campaign was launched to secure a referendum on Britain’s continued membership of the EU. Called the People’s Pledge it aims to put pressure on political leaders to support a poll which would settle this divisive question once and for all. Do you think we need a referendum on our membership of the EU or are we going referendum mad?

8PM Libya: The international community is nearing D-Day, decision day on Libya. Either the UN authorises a no fly zone or it doesn’t. Who should impose the no fly zone, the Arab League? Nato? Or will the international community cut the Libyan rebels loose and signal to Gadaffi that he can kill yet more of his people?

And yet some theatre purists are worried that the mini boom in theatre is being fuelled by poor quality musical productions.

7PM Pensions. Today Lord Hutton published his report on the future of public sector pensions. And it’s provoked a firestorm with public sector unions threatening massive strikes. But why should the public sector be featherbedded at the expense of the rest of us?

8PM The homeless: Westminster City Council apparently want to fine anyone who gives food to the homeless - £500. That’s right, if you give a homeless person a cup of soup or a sandwich, be prepared for the consequences. How does this fit into the Big Society?

8PM I’ll be joined in the studio by prisons minister Crispin Blunt. He’ll be with me for the whole hour to answer your questions on prisons and prisons policy. The government is heralding a rehabilitation revolution. Do you want to see more emphasis on rehabilitating prisoners? Is that the way to bring down reoffending rates?

Tonight on my LBC Show From 7pm...

7PM Pensions reform: Iain Duncan Smith today announced plans for a flat rate £140 a week state pension. A welcome reform, the end of means testing, and a massive simplification of a terribly complicated system? But does it go far enough, and why should those who don’t contribute to the system receive the same pension as those who do?

8PM Was motherhood better in the 70s and 80s? Well that’s what a new study says. Mothers feel they have less time to themselves and are under greater pressure than previous generations. Is that right? Do mothers today spend enough time with their kids, is there too much pressure to go out to work, are stay at home mums treated unfairly?

7PM Today an Islamist extremist was fined £50 for burning poppies on the anniversary of armistice day. Clearly a despicable act, but was it right to involve the law? What happened to freedom of speech? What are the limits of freedom of speech and freedom of expression? Should we be worried that freedom of speech, expression and thought are now under attack?

8PM Smoking: According to the Office for National Statistics 63% of smokers in Britain want to quit. Well why don’t they just get on and do it then? Well, because half of them find it difficult to go a whole day without smoking. Why do people find it so difficult to quit an addiction?

On My LBC Show From 7pm...

7PM The Minimum Wage. Tomorrow in the House of Commons a Conservative MP is going to table a Bill which would allow employers to pay below the minimum wage in certain regions of the country. Is it sensible in areas of high unemployment to cut the minimum wage to encourage employers to take on more staff, or do you think the minimum wage has acted as a bulwark against unscrupulous employers? Is a national rate sensible, or would it be better to have regional variations?

8PM Today the Post Office lost its lucrative benefits cheques contract from the government, worth £20 million a year. The unions are warning of a post office closure programme the like of which we’ve never seen before. Do you care? Why do we have this sentimental attachment to post offices? Are they really at the centre of our local communities or just outmoded, old fashioned shops which have had their day?

7PM David Cameron wants a no-fly zone over Libya. Today Gadaffi’s air force bombed two cities. Has Cameron got a point, or do you think we should stay well out of this internal conflict and mind our own business?

On My LBC Show Tonight From 7pm...
