We discuss a range of disability issues with Jonathan Shaw - the Minister For Disability (Labour), Mark Harper (Conservative) and Lynne Featherstone (Liberal Democrats). Despite worries over the effect winter grit has had on the nation's trees, experts say this spring is seeing an unusually vigorous display of cherry blossom. The head gardener of the national cherry blossom collection at Batsford Arboretum tells us why. Police have arrested eight people after thousands of BT customers were tricked into giving their credit and debit card details to fraudsters pretending to be from BT.
