I hear that one of the regional news programmes, Look North, did a pre-election debate in which Emma Harrison of A4e joined three politicians on the panel. It's not available on iplayer. Did anyone see it?

The Halifax and Calderdale Evening Courier has published an interesting piece about Pathways, the scheme to get people off Incapacity Benefit and into work. So keen is A4e to encourage people onto this programme that they are offering "£100 shopping vouchers to anyone who signs up voluntarily with A4e until September 30".

In the new government it appears that Chris Grayling is the minister who will be to Iain Duncan Smith what Jim Knight was to Yvette Cooper (if you see what I mean).
