Laura McGhie gets to the heart of the stories making the news.

KNIFE CRIME
The Scottish Police Federation is calling for stronger search powers to tackle young people carrying knives. It comes as concerns intensify about knife crime after the fatal stabbing of 16-year-old Kayden Moy on Irvine beach last year.

Should the police have more stop and search powers?

TRUMP AND THE WORLD CUP
President Donald Trump confirmed on Monday that he asked FIFA to review USA striker Folarin Balogun's one-match ban at the World Cup. FIFA made the shock decision to suspend the one-match ban for 12 months, leading to widespread criticism.

Has Donald Trump tarnished the World Cup?

BREASTFEEDING EXCLUSION
A breastfeeding boss has been barred from a business course run by online retailer Amazon because it would not let her child on to the site. Rachel Bews said she had let Amazon know a week ahead of the in-person event at an Amazon warehouse in Dunfermline, Scotland, that she would need to take her 20-week-old baby with her as she was breastfeeding. However, she said she was told over the phone on the train to the event that children under six were not allowed on site.

Have you felt excluded when breastfeeding?

ROYALS
Buckingham Palace has said Prince Harry will not be staying at the palace for part of his visit to London this week despite his team announcing earlier that he had accepted an invitation to do so.

As the Royal Family drama rumbles on, whose side are you on?
