The panelists are divided over comments made by Ed Miliband on the tragedies unfolding in the Mediterranean. A questioner asked whether his remarks were ill-advised.

Former Conservative Defence Secretary Liam Fox said: "There's a perfectly good case to have a discussion during the general election. The way it was phrased was very unfortunate."

Lib Dem equalities minister Jo Swinson said Mr Miliband had been "ill-advised" to reduce the issue to the responsibilities of any politician and that it was "not the best way to have the debate and resolve the problems".

The Scottish Green Party has accused Westminster governments of holding back the progress of small businesses, writes Scotland Correspondent Laura Bickers.

The party unveiled a plan in Edinburgh which it says will create jobs and put public services back in public hands. The party is putting up candidates in 32 of the 59 Scottish constituencies, appealing to the low-paid with a pledge for a minimum wage of £10 an hour. It also wants to re-nationalise the railways. Its co-convenor, Patrick Harvie said small- and medium-sized Scottish firms were being held back.

Human rights campaigner Peter Tatchell has called on the DUP's Jim Wells to stand down as Northern Ireland's health minister after his comments about same sex marriage and child abuse.

David Cameron was asked by Jon Snow on Channel 4 News how the Conservatives would make their promised cuts to the welfare bill. He said the cuts would be "half of what we did in the last parliament when we saved £21bn" and that some of the savings would come from the fact that an extra one million people would go in to work and therefore be off welfare.

Interviewed on Channel 4 news, the Prime Minister rejects claims that Britain got it wrong with Libya and says the country had carried out airstrikes with France because "Colonel Gaddafi had said he was going to kill his people like rats" [in Benghazi].

He also rejected claims that the government had not done enough to plan for the aftermath of the airstrikes.

"We are still working with the Libyan authorities, trying to bring together the various sides to get a government for Libya - but this is something the Libyan people have to do for themselves," he adds.

The Spectator

The Spectator’s gossip columnist, Steerpike, has been looking, external at Gordon Brown's pledge that Labour will give money to every food bank in Scotland if the party wins the election.

During his LBC phone-in earlier, Ed Miliband spoke about his brother David and whether he would be helping campaign for his brother.

Newsbeat

Ed Miliband has been facing questions from 10 young voters on the European migrant crisis, the threat to Labour from the SNP, the state of the NHS in Wales and LGBT attitudes in Northern Ireland. It got pretty lively with even Newsbeat's presenter Chris Smith interrupted by a member of the audience at one point. It was the latest in a series of interviews with the main party leaders in Radio 1's Live Lounge, where listeners normally hear the likes of Ed Sheeran doing cover versions.

James Landale
Deputy political editor

Labour is "furious" the row over Libya has dominated the headlines today, says our deputy political editor James Landale. Ed Miliband had hoped to set out his "credentials as a future world statesman", he says.

But the Tories are also furious at what they see as a personal attack on the prime minister, he adds.

BBC Radio 4

Former Lib Dem leader Sir Menzies Campbell tells BBC Radio 4's PM that were it not in the "febrile atmosphere of a general election campaign", some of Ed Miliband's foreign policy remarks might have been received differently.

But he says the Labour leader "briefed one way, then spoke other" and that it was inevitable his comments would be seen as attributing blame to David Cameron on the subject of Libya and the Mediterranean migrant crisis. Sir Menzies says the prime minister's reaction was "pretty generous" to his opposite number.

Tony, Staines:

LBC

Ed Miliband's appearance on Radio 1 was pre-recorded a short time ago. The Labour leader is now on LBC, where he has been challenged by presenter Iain Dale about his foreign affairs experience. "I’ve got more than David Cameron had when he became PM," Mr Miliband says, pointing to trips when he worked for the last Labour government.

Newsbeat

The Labour leader is asked on BBC Radio 1 whether people can trust him because, the questioner says, "you were not loyal to your brother".

Ed Miliband says that's the charge being made by the Conservatives but that he does not "buy that".

"It was hard", he says, but it was right that he stood against his brother and he did so because he thought he was the right person to "move on from New Labour".

He said he had moved the party on on the issues of immigration, Iraq and inequality.
