The UK government votes to renew its Nuclear defence, but Scottish MPs vote overwhelmingly against; and the Irish Prime Minister floats the prospect of a referendum on Irish reunification.

The UK government has voted in favour of renewing its Trident Nuclear Missile system, but with 58 of the 59 Scottish MPs voting against the renewal, the issue of Scottish Independence has been raised once more. We discuss this with SNP MP Doctor Paul Monaghan.

The Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny has suggested that a referendum on a united Ireland could be in the offing, as the Republic of Ireland grapples with the UK's decision to leave the EU. Our guests are Ian Paisley MP, and historian Tommy Dolan.
