Heels, Gay Vote, Migrants
We debate women and dress codes as Cannes insists on high heels; Irish voices on same sex marriage ahead of Friday's vote; and reaction in Asia to today's deal over boat people.
Are women under too much pressure over what they wear? We debate female dress codes as the Cannes film festival faces a backlash for turning away women not wearing high heels. We hear both sides of the Irish debate on same sex marriage ahead of Friday's nationwide referendum - a world first. And we find out what the reaction has been in Asia to today's deal over boat people.
