I.B.H.Q.

Here’s a bit of advance notice about this week's edition of Riddoch Questions on Radio Scotland...

Tomorrow Lesley Riddoch will be in the Western Isles, asking why Stornoway isn’t making the news this week with a Sunday sailing of the Cal Mac Ferry to the mainland.

Many people involved with this week's Hebridean Celtic Festival had hoped for a one-off Sunday ferry service this year. But Cal Mac say they won’t consider that until they are asked "properly."

Is it time to hold a referendum on Lewis to see whether the majority are now in favour of Sunday sailings? Planes started flying on Sundays back in 2002, a Sunday sailing operates from Harris to the south and a recent report found that Sunday operations would provide the biggest single boost to the island's economy.

But would 7 day access destroy a way of life? And if most Lewis people don’t believe that who should act? The Council, Cal Mac, the government or the Churches?
