As the social housing budget is halved, should a Belfast man on Β£40k still get a council house? Plus the RSPCA on the Β£250 fine for binning a cat.

Victoria looks ahead to Wednesday's Spending Review, but some cuts are already taking place up and down the country. You tell us what cuts are happening where you are.

She also looks at the impact of the proposed 50% cut to the social housing budget and hears that a council house may no longer be for life. In the first half-hour we hear from Paul in Belfast, who earns between Β£40,000 and Β£50,000, but still lives in a council house. Is that fair?

A chief inspector at the RSPCA reacts to a woman who put a cat in a wheelie bin being fined Β£250.

And new research says couples who've been together just a few years know far more about their partner than those who've been together forty years. We put that to the test.
