Jason Mohammad takes your calls on violent protests, free universal childcare and sharing a bed with your pets.

How concerned are you about violent protests across the UK? Do you think there should be free universal childcare for under fours in Wales? And do you share a bed with your pet?

Houses, cars and a bus were set on fire in Belfast last night. The violent protest was in response to a knife attack on Monday. The suspect, a 30-year-old Sudanese man who claimed asylum in the UK, is expected in court today. And two men have been jailed for violent disorder at a protest in Southampton earlier this month, following the murder of Henry Nowak. How concerned are you about violent protest across the UK?

Reform UK will challenge the Welsh Government today, to reveal the cost of their proposed childcare reforms. During the Senedd election campaign, Plaid Cymru pledged to expand universal childcare to all children aged between nine months and four years. Speaking on Radio Wales Breakfast, Reform’s leader in Wales, Dan Thomas said the party had two simple questions to ask the government. What’s it going to cost and when is it going to be delivered? So, do you think there should be free universal childcare for under fours in Wales, or should the money be spent elsewhere?

And do you sleep with your pet? A new study has suggested that people who share a bed with their dog wake up in a better mood. But sharing a bed with your cat doesn't seem to have the same impact. Wildlife presenter, Chris Packham, has said that sleeping with his dogs helps him feel a lot more rested.
