Should help be given to mortgage defaulters?

Repossessions in Scotland have doubled; and What's your experience of hospital food? Graham Stewart takes your calls.

Latest figures show the number of home repossessions in Scotland has doubled since the start of the credit crunch. The news comes days after the Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Yvette Cooper, urged the banks to be lenient to people who're struggling with their mortgage and repossess only as a "last resort". But should the government interfere when, after all, it's made clear that your home is at risk if you can't keep up repayments? Do you blame those who took out mortgages they couldn't afford, or the banks that offered them?

Also, does hospital food leave a nasty taste in the mouth?

A report by the consumer organisation Which? has criticised the food on offer across the UK's hospital canteens. What's your experience of grub in the nation's health centres? Nutritious and tasty? Or a throwback to lamentable school dinners of yesteryear?

Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
