A Transport Minister wants legal highs included in new laws aimed at tackling the 200 drug-driving related deaths each year; warnings of disaster for the Central African Republic.

A Transport Minister wants legal highs included in new drug driving laws aimed at tackling the 200 drug driving related deaths each year. Currently over half of drug driving prosecutions are withdrawn or dismissed. In 2014, a new offence will be introduced of driving with a drug in the body. The law will cover controlled drugs but not legal highs.

The FA says in the last 15 months there have been almost 4000 incidents of verbal or physical attacks by adults while watching their kids play football. Usually it's referees and other parents on the receiving end. Have you ever lost your cool watching children's sport?

The bloodshed in the Central African Republic (C.A.R) is being described as the world's worst crisis that most people have never heard of. Amnesty have told this programme if the international community doesn't intervene soon it will be a catastrophe. We'll look at the situation there and ask why the rest of the world isn't doing more to help?
