Family law is not in children's best interests, but it is in the legal profession's best interests.

If you're watching in broadband, here's how to find your favourite parts of the latest show.

1131 A big Westminster day: everyone's in the Chamber for PMQs and the Education Debate. Well, almost everyone. We've held two of them back - the newly promoted Lib Dem spokeswoman on Scottish Affairs, Jo Swinson and the Tory spokesman on Welfare Reform, David Ruffley.

1137 "Apocalypse soon": that's how the Bishop of London recently described the financial crisis affecting our churches. And not surprisingly, the Church of England is campaigning for more subsidies to keep places of worship open. But with attendance figures in decline, is that the best use of public money? Giles is out in Herefordshire to ask some questions.

1140 With less than an hour until MPs start debating Tony Blair's plans for schools reform, the latest word suggests that he'll only get his flagship Bill through with support from the Tories - and many think that will damage him for the rest of his time at Number Ten. Jenny explains how the Numbers Game works at Westminster.

1142 We hear from Brian Brivati, Professor of Contemporary History at Kingston University.

1144 Labour MP Geraldine Smith joins the education debate.

1152 You chance to win a coveted Daily Politics mug in our Guess The Year quiz.

1154 We're joined by Ed The Bookie in Cheltenham and political editor Nick Robinson to look forward to Prime Minister's Questions.

1200 We cross the road to the Commons as Rachel Hooper takes us through Prime Minister's Questions.

1229 Andrew discuss PMQs with Nick and asks our guests David and Jo what they made of it.

1237 We discover the winner of Guess The Year quiz.

1238 We're joined by the former Young One Nigel Planer who believes we need to rethink how separated parents can share responsibility for their children.

1248 We return to Giles in Herefordshire to talk churches with English Heritage.

1254 We pop our heads back into the Commons chamber tog et a flavour of the crucial education debate.
