Will climate change be a hot voter issue this election?

Do you care about political parties' green views or are there more important things on your agenda?

We know the hot issues - the economy, jobs, taxes… So just how much of a voter issues is climate change? It's been reported at least six members of the shadow cabinet are sceptical about the Conservative party's continued focus on climate change policies. Will green issues swing your vote? They're the symbol of British pride, Vera Lynn sang about them… should the White Cliffs of Dover really be sold to the French to help reduce the Government's debt?

After Gordon Brown's reported to have broken down during a television interview and Alistair Campbell was upset whilst defending Tony Blair, have you noticed how our politicians seem to be more emotive? Do you feel more empathy with leaders who talk about their private feelings, or do you think they should keep them separate from their working lives? After reports that Toyota is considering a global recall of the latest model of its Prius hybrid car over issues with its breaks, just how badly has the firm been damaged? Thanks to Tony Blackburn for the call in defence of his Prius!

A new report suggests chivalry is dead. Would you agree? As a bloke, when was the last time you did something chivalrous for the lady in your life? Or as a man do you find it difficult knowing where to draw a line between women's rights and chivalry? As a woman, do you still expect doors to be opened? Plus, could you forgive an affair? John Prescott's wife has written about the betrayal she felt on finding out her husband had cheated on her.

I'll be back tomorrow morning from 7am.
